Usability and Aesthetics
Together we will use design to create a better world. We will design that world out of the patterns and lessons that nature shares with us. Designers have always looked to nature for inspiration but it's time we apply the design lessons and patterns nature herself uses, patterns that reduce waste, that lead to simple, functional, and robust systems, and that allow us to create abundance.
What we'll create must demonstrate good ergonomic, economic, and ecological design principles because in the end they're the same. The results will be more natural, less energy intensive, and will work for and with us allowing the finished product to perform as efficiently while being as aesthetically pleasing and cost effective as possible.
Nature is efficient and robust but she is also aesthetically minded. The patterns found in nature from fibonacci sequences to wave patterns all serve a purpose but they're also beautiful. If we use that beauty to create our own robust and efficient processes and systems we will not only benefit from their sturdiness but too from their beauty.
Now is the time the solve our problems with natural solutions. This is the time to answer engineering questions, to guide scientific research, and to shape the world in ways that amplify the abundance found in nature while creating a new paradigm.It's time we use design to move beyond the stale ideas of sustainability and create a regenerative world where we can all live in abundance.
Hire me and find out how we can design simple solutions to complex problems, how we can create designs that feel more natural, and how we can build a better world one design at a time.
My photography focuses on the relationship between you, my client, and your environment. Even with studio portraits I'm ecologically minded. My understanding of how light interacts with you and the objects in my camera and how patterns are created inform my work. Your portrait is more natural when you're more comfortable and at ease, understanding how the camera can't be ignored but must factor in as part of their overall experience allows me to not waste time trying to get you to pretend it's not there. It's often a central player in your experience and one that you may be less than comfortable around.
I will work with you to teach you how to be calm, relaxed, and to interacting with the camera in a more natural way. My clients (especially children) are encouraged to explore behind the camera, to share what they like to see in themselves and in other photos, I'm not afraid to go in front of the camera, to stand in between the camera and you, and to demonstrates how you, and the camera can collaborate rather than compete.
A designer my whole life, my work has evolved as I've observed the natural world and how people interact with it. I've developed relationships with a wide array of clients in a diverse collection of industries as well as individuals. I've studied the world as a professional designer for the last 15 years. I call myself an artist, craftsman, designer, and student, so I am continuously working to perfect my crafts.
Good design cannot be created without an understanding of how it will relate to the world in which it lives. I never create designs in a vacuum so working with me is a collaborative experience where your input guides my expert hand. My knowledge of line, shape, pattern, color, and so forth are powerful tools but they are no good alone. For a good design to be born it requires knowledge of those who will experience it as well as those who have commissioned it.

Brain Changes in Alzheimer's Disease
The symptoms of Alzheimer's disease are a result of changes in the structures of the brain.
A simple analogy helps to explain what happens in the brain when Alzheimer's disease develops. Picture a large city with all its lights on. Each home, street, and shopping center has its own light switch and bulb that lets people go about their daily activities. From an airplane you can see that together these lights make the entire city glow.
Now imagine that a problem occurs with the wiring or circuits within the city's electrical system. Each home, street, and shopping center gradually loses power and the people are unable to carry on as normal. It eventually becomes harder to cook dinner, drive through the city, and do business in stores. The power outage will eventually disable the entire city and its people.
Now think about the brain: imagine that each cell within the brain is a light bulb and the entire brain is the city. Each neuron helps carry out the functions of the brain. During normal function, each neuron and all parts of the brain work together to carry out tasks such as remembering a relative's name, washing the dishes, or controlling one's temper.
Alzheimer's disease gradually "turns off" each neuron in the brain, just like the lights in the city. As the individual neurons stop working, the brain does not function as well and the person has problems thinking, remembering, and carrying on with daily living. However, unlike an electrical circuit that can be repaired, damage in the brain caused by Alzheimer's disease and dementia is permanent and cannot be repaired.
Learn more detailed information about changes that occur in the brain when Alzheimer's disease develops.
Brain Changes with Alzheimer's
The brain changes that happen with Alzheimer's disease take place on both the larger structures and tiny cells in the brain.
Structural-Level Changes
The brain is made up of 3 major parts:
- Cerebral cortex (frontal, parietal, occipital and temporal lobes),
- Limbic system (hippocampus, amygdala, thalamus, and more)
- Brain stem (cerebellum, pons, and medulla oblongata)
The Alzheimer's Association provides an interesting, interactive model of the brain here: Inside the Brain
Alzheimer's disease strikes certain parts of the brain first. The limbic system - primarily the hippocampus - is attacked first, then the cerebral cortex, then the brain stem, causing each structure to lose its function in turn. The symptoms that occur are a direct result of this sequential damage:
- Limbic system damage impairs a person's memory and causes mood swings
- Cerebral cortex damage results in trouble controlling emotional outbursts. People at this stage may need help with daily activities, such as eating, shaving or combing hair
- Brain stem damage late in AD impairs organ function, including the function of the heart, lungs, and various other bodily processes.
Cellular-Level Changes
Normal brain cells (neurons): Neurons are cells in the brain that carry out all brain functions. They have spaces between them called synapses. Brain chemicals, called neurotransmitters, are released by neurons and deposited into the synapses. Neurotransmitters are important for communication between neurons. This communication is responsible for producing movement and is a critical part of learning and remembering. The most common neurotransmitter in the brain is glutamate. Another important neurotransmitter for communication between neurons is acetylcholine.
Alzheimer's effect on brain neurons: At the cellular level, Alzheimer's disease attacks the brain's neurons. Two toxic proteins appear to be responsible for the damage: beta-amyloid and tau. Tangled proteins accumulate within brain neurons. The neurons are eventually destroyed. Scar-like "plaques" accumulate in the brain between the brain's neurons (NIA, 2008).
Beta-amyloid and plaques: In the initial event that leads to AD, part of the neuron that normally helps promote neuron growth and survival breaks down in an abnormal way to produce a toxic protein called beta-amyloid. Beta-amyloid clumps (oligomers) appear to be the most toxic form of the protein. Beta-amyloid damages neurons in at least two ways. It affects the neuron's receptor for a particular neurotransmitter, and that, in turn, interferes with the cell's ability to function and send messages to other neurons. Beta-amyloid also interferes with another protein that is important for neurons to respond to signals in the hippocampus, a part of the brain that is very important in memory. As the neuron's function is reduced, less of the neurotransmitters are produced and communication between neurons is decreased.
The build-up of "plaques" in the brain, previously thought to be the primary cause of Alzheimer's, now appears to be the result of the damage rather than the primary cause, similar to scar tissue. Composed of protein and fibers surrounding beta-amyloid, plaques may even be an attempt to surround and protect neurons from the toxic effects of beta-amyloid. The rate at which beta-amyloid is made, degraded, or removed from the brain affects the rate at which the plaques are formed. Abnormal "tau" fragments are also found in Alzheimer's plaques.
Tau and tangles (neurofibillary tangles). An abnormal form of another protein called tau also appears to contribute to the development of Alzheimer's disease. Abnormal tau forms tangles of proteins in degenerating neurons. Researchers are currently learning about how this takes place.
Other factors. Changes in the ability to make new blood vessels in the brain or changes in the blood vessels themselves may contribute to a decreased ability to remove beta-amyloid before it causes damage. Changes in the cell cycle of neurons may also contribute to the disease process.
The result of cellular damage: When neurons cannot communicate, learning and memory are impaired. The neurons eventually die. Because of all of this damage, the brain gradually shrinks and becomes less functional, leading to many of the symptoms of dementia.
Knowledge about the cellular level of Alzheimers leads to treatments: Researchers are working to find ways to decrease the amount of beta-amyloid formed or to remove it before it can start damaging the neuron. Similarly, drugs may be developed to block damage from abnormal tau, once it is better understood. Researchers also are trying to find ways to block the progression of neuron damage once it gets started. Many current medications aim to increase the amount of neurotransmitter in the synapse between neurons or to make it more effective at helping a neuron send messages.View References

WASHBURN — Jack H Hulsey Jr., 79, of Washburn died Monday, Oct. 8, 2012.
Memorial services will be at 11 a.m. Friday in Lake Tanglewood Community Church with Dr. Larry Hickam, a friend and former co-worker, officiating. Burial will be in Washburn Cemetery. Arrangements are by Schooler Funeral Home, 4100 S. Georgia St.
Jack was born Sept. 30, 1933, in Floyd County to Jack H. and Minnie Hulsey. In 1952, he graduated from Quitaque High School, where he was a member of the football team. After graduation, he joined the Army and was stationed in Germany for a time. Upon returning, he met the love of his life, Charlene. They settled in Amarillo, where Jack worked as a cowboy. They moved to Washburn in the mid-1970s and Jack began his 20-year career at Asarco. He was a proud member of the United Steel Workers of America. He enjoyed his family, fishing for trout, horses, watching bull riding and rodeo, reading Western books and raising animals, especially his prized Blueheeler dogs he bred for more than 40 years. Jack was recently quoted as saying, "All a man really needs in life is a good horse, a good dog and a good wife. I've been lucky to have all three."
He was preceded in death by his parents; two sisters, Hazel Brooks and Lucille Eddleman; and two great-grandchildren.
Survivors include his wife for more than 50 years, Charlene; two daughters, Pam Brown and husband Bill of Howardwick and Barbara Jo Johnson and husband Bobby of Dalhart; two sons, Robert Hulsey and wife Julie of Lake Tanglewood,and Ron Hulsey and wife Sharrise of Canyon; nine grandchildren and their spouses, Tracie, Kristopher, Erin, Nikki, Misty, Christy, Kari, J.W. and Joseph; 19 great-grandchildren; a great-great-grandchild; and numerous nieces and nephews.
The family suggests memorials be to Washburn Community Center or the volunteer fire department in Washburn.
Visitation will be from 6 to 7 p.m. today in the funeral home, 4100 S. Georgia St.

Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETH)
Society of Architectural Historians (SAH)
European Architectural History Network (EAHN)
International Conference, Zurich
June 26, 2008 – June 29, 2008
This conference will consider Europe and the Americas as a continuous and highly productive space of architectural communication. It seeks to elucidate the processes of assimilation and modification that happened to forms, ideas and concepts of architectural modernity during their transfer from one continent to another.
Some areas of these processes are relatively well known. Figures such as William Lescaze, Richard Neutra, Walter Gropius or Ludwig Mies van der Rohe stand for a European presence in the architecture of North America, while European "Amerikanismus" introduced issues of high-rise building and urban growth, mass production and prefabrication to the architectural debates. We would like to broaden the view beyond such established phenomena to include the period of political consolidation and economic growth on both continents after ca. 1870 and the postwar period before the growing impact of globalization on architectural practice.The less known contacts among Mediterranean countries and Latin America also deserve attention. We want to reach beyond the transfer of formal or functional ideas and consider the entire field of architectural history and theory, as well as the rich conditions of architectural production. Where and how did topics and methods of architectural debates and their publications influence each other? Which role did architecture schools play in this cultural transfer? How did the export of American building methods, for example, change the way architecture came about in Europe and Latin America? Where has the adaptation of certain legal frameworks helped to shape urban form?
The reconstruction of such processes will reliably encounter issues of modern local, regional/spatial or national identities. The reception and processing of different traditions will require comparative analyses and we will debate the productive misunderstandings and creative misreadings we will surely encounter in this area.
Comparative perspectives could present individual architects and their work on both continents, examine the cross cultural influence of certain schools of architecture and design, the reflection and distribution of architectural thought through different media such as film and photography, or look at the transnational career of particular building types, the adaptation of buildings to climate and nature, to local technologies and cultural traditions, as well as the changing fortunes of theoretical approaches at different locations and geographies of modernity.
Paper proposals are requested (in German, English or French) before December 21, 2007 via email to Prof. Dr. Andreas Toennesmann, ETH Zurich (firstname.lastname@example.com) and Prof. Dr. Dietrich Neumann, Brown University, Providence, RI, USA (email@example.com).

What issues are currently facing the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender community?Learn
The following is an excerpt from HRC's Back Story Blog:
The Healthcare Equality Index 2011 was released today by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation's Family Project. The report details the results of [their] most recent HEI survey, rating how equitably healthcare facilities treat their lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender patients and employees. The survey focuses on four main policy areas: patient non-discrimination, visitation, cultural competency training and employment non-discrimination.
…So, why the HEI? We know that the fear of discrimination causes many lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people to avoid seeking care and, when they do get treatment, studies have shown that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people are often not treated with the respect that all patients deserve. For five years now, to help end this discrimination, the HEI has served as an organizational assessment tool, assisting healthcare administrators in making their policies more explicitly welcoming of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender patients and their families. The HEI also provides useful resources to hospitals working to comply with accreditation standards and new HHS regulations.
As the HEI continues to grow year after year, the message from our healthcare industry contacts is clear – lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender inclusion is key to providing high quality healthcare to all.
…And if anyone asks you what is meant by "healthcare equality" you can tell them that, first and foremost, it's about quality care for all.
Storytelling is one of the most powerful tools we have for creating change. Not only do they give us a personal connection that numbers and statistics can't offer, but they offer a glimpse into the real life experiences of others. We each have a voice, and every voice is worth hearing. Do you want to change the world? Start by telling your story.Submit Story

Court told man with rifle, 385 rounds of ammunition and five knives threatened to kill wife at Gold Coast's Q1 tower
- From: Gold Coast Bulletin
- October 25, 2012
A FATHER of six armed himself with a rifle and threatened to kill his wife at the Q1 building and shoot anyone who got in his way, a court has been told.
Police in bulletproof vests surrounded a car idling out the front of the iconic Surfers Paradise tower on Tuesday and arrested Jade Douglas Currie before he had the opportunity to carry out the alleged threats.
It is alleged Currie was in possession of cannabis and was armed with a .22 calibre rifle fitted with a telescopic sight, five knives and 385 rounds of ammunition for the rifle.
The 30-year-old Beaudesert man faced the Southport Magistrates Court yesterday charged with: threatening violence, dangerous conduct, possessing weapons and drugs as well as items used in the commission of a crime.

Microsoft Project Natal To Be Called Wave?
A gaming website has claimed information from an "inside source" that Microsoft's latest addition to its Xbox 360 peripherals – the much anticipated Project Natal would named 'Wave'. The source terms the naming to directly take on a similar product from Sony, named Playstation Move.
This is however a rumor and will need to be taken with skepticism. While 'Wave' does fit the product category, we are not sure about the credibility of the source. So, we would tend to keep this low for the moment.

Microsoft Natal Price And Launch Revealed
Microsoft's Project Natal – a controller-free peripheral for Xbox 360 that will let users interact with the console without having to use a game controller is now revealed to launch in the US in October at a price of $149.
According to the sources, Natal shall be bundled along with the Xbox 360 Arcade and will retail at a price of $299. The peripheral will also launch outside US, but the price is noted to be determined later based on several factors including exchange rates.
As it should be evident, the marketed name is not going to be Natal though we are still unsure what it is going to be called. It has been earlier revealed that Sony's Natal competitor will be called Playstation Move.

New NetFlix Devices With Microsoft PlayReady DRM To Launch Soon
The Netflix online streaming service for Mac and Windows computers makes use of Microsoft's PlayReady DRM. Now, this DRM may also be employed on a range of new Netflix enabled devices come summer.
In a media release published yesterday, Microsoft has confirmed the signing of an agreement to this effect. The statement notes that this will bring Microsoft PlayReady technology enabled content to "a wide range of new devices — Internet TVs, Blu-ray disc players, home theater systems, video game consoles and other devices".
The PlayReady DRM technology was introduced by Microsoft in 2007 to enable content access across a wide range of consumer devices. The technology is not accessible via Apple Devices like the iPhone or iPod.

LG Windows 7 Phone With Chassis 2 Form Factor Shows Up
Do you still remember what "series" in Windows Phone 7 series mean? They are three different form factors that Microsoft's latest mobile OS is programmed to cater to. One of the three form factors, Chassis 2, referred to Palm Treo like phones with real sliding keyboards plus touch.
One such phone, an LG slider has made an appearance out of nowhere. The photo was supposedly leaked by a French Microsoft employee. Tough to argue with that, or the authenticity of the pictures. But nevertheless, take a look.

Microsoft Kin May Get Windows Phone 7 OS Soon
After Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 unveiling got rave reviews, the company disappointed its fans by announcing a feature phone instead of a smartphone. However, it now appears that the platform on the Kin phones may ultimately get merged with Windows Phone 7 which will allow users to download apps and play games.
Greg Sullivan, Senior Product Manager at Microsoft has said,
"Over the longer term, we'll be merging [Kin and Windows Phone 7] platforms and having downloadable apps."
This was ratified by another email by Microsoft
"Both Kin and Windows Phone 7 share common OS components, software and services. We will seek to align around a single platform for both products as well as consistent hardware specifications, so we can drive our ecosystem at scale and strength across all products."
Microsoft Kin has a refreshing form factor and a smartphone OS in the device may go a long way in popularizing the device. Now that the reassurance has been given, it will only be a matter of time before we should get to see it in the device.

Live TV On Xbox 360 Coming In 2011
A Canadian website is claiming that Xbox 360 could come with live TV capabilities by 2011. According to a "trusted source", the website notes that the feature could be much bigger than what European users get with Sky TV. Microsoft is claimed to be repositioning the XBox into a digital TV set top box with PVR capabilities supported by a prominent Canadian network carrier.
You may remember rumors from late last month that a live TV channel could be coming to Xbox. The source claims that this is going to be much bigger than just a solitary TV channel. Instead, the source says this will be "like putting Netflix, Zune Marketplace and Sky TV all in one place."
We have our doubts. But let's pretend to believe it for now.

Microsoft Office 2011 For Mac To Be Closer To Windows Version
In an effort to improve cross-platform compatibility, Microsoft has revealed that its upcoming 2011 version of Microsoft Office for Mac productivity suite will offer greater feature parity with the Windows version.
The new version shall offer improved support for Exchange and Visual Basic Applications. You may recall that support for VBA was dropped in the 2008 version of Mac Office.
The new tool also brings co-authoring tools to the platform. In a press release, Microsoft has said,
"The new co-authoring tools in Office 2011 give you and your teammates the ability to work on a file from Word, PowerPoint or Excel [via the Office Web App version only] from different locations, brainstorm ideas, and stay on the same page regardless of time, geography or platform. Co-authoring improves the processes of working together, removing the pain and frustration of multiple versions, lost edits, or even trying to set a time for the group to meet. With this new feature you can keep track of your team with the Presence Everywhere feature that gives real-time status updates on who is working on the document directly in the application."

PanAust (ASX: PNA) is a copper and gold producer in Southeast Asia and has a portfolio of organic growth projects in Laos and Chile.
PanAust (ASX: PNA) has discovered a continuous zone of high-grade gold skarn mineralisation at the Tharkhek gold prospect, which is in close proximity to the Tharkhek copper-gold deposit near Phonsavan, Laos.
The first four discovery holes at the prospect have all intersected high-grade gold mineralisation over significant widths including 22 metres at 12.78g/t gold from 141 metres (TKRD015) and 17 metres at 10.96g/t gold from 135 metres (TKR035):
The high-grade gold mineralisation has been intersected over an area of approximately 100 x 100 metres and has an estimated true thickness of between 15 metres and 20 metres. The mineralisation remains open to the east and west.
Gary Stafford, managing director, said "Tharkhek is emerging as an exciting discovery with the prospect of a discrete high-grade gold deposit being defined in close proximity to a copper-gold deposit thereby increasing the prospects for separate gold and copper-gold production streams to be developed in the Phonsavan Region."
Drilling activity at the Tharkhek gold prospect will be suspended through the current wet season while results are collated and interpretive work is completed.
The company said the relationship between the discrete gold and copper-gold occurrences at Tharkhek is not fully understood but is thought to be analogous to the Fortitude gold and Copper Canyon deposits in Nevada. Drilling is planned to recommence in November this year.
The nearby Tharkhek copper-gold deposit is part of the Phonsavan Copper Project, which comprises two deposits which are named KTL and Tharkhek. These are located 5km apart and close to the town of Phonsavan and existing road and power infrastructure.
Bohr Thong Prospect, also located nearby, is an additional regional exploration target.
A two-year resource development program, which will be completed in several phases, is currently underway at the KTL and Tharkhek copper-gold deposits.
Drilling at KTL has confirmed a continuous zone of copper-gold mineralisation over a strike length of 1.6km. The zone of mineralisation, which dips moderately to the south at between 30deg and 40deg, remains open to the east.
New and significant drill assay results at Tharkhek have identified significant base metal and gold mineralisation intercepts of 20 metres at 1.35% copper, 0.11g/t gold and 2.2g/t silver from a down hole depth of 42 metres at hole TKD024.
PanAust is planning to complete an initial resource estimate for the Phonsavan Copper Project for release in the March quarter 2011.

Just bought a Marlin 983s, tube fed bolt action 22 mag. Very, Very accurate, under $300 out the door NIB. I said Marlin because I not kin to Donald Trump(LOL)
May 16, 2009, 01:48 AM
the best bolt action would be the Anschutz 1710/1712. it's based on their Olympic winning action and has an outstanding barrel and trigger. the only improvement over this would be a custom Cooper...their stock guns aren't any better
i think the "best for the price" would be the CZ 452. i got my 452 American...no open sights...for $278 from CDNN. for open sights, i have a Romanian M-69 which i got from Big 5 for about $79
May 16, 2009, 02:15 AM
Savage Mark II
May 16, 2009, 02:34 AM
Ditto. No need to buy extras to upgrade to shoot accurately. It comes accurate, light, and fun to shoot. :D
May 16, 2009, 03:07 AM
Mark 2's seem to be able to outshoot much more expensive center-fire rifles. Funny isn't it?
May 16, 2009, 03:10 AM
Ill second the anchutz (suhls are up there too) recommendation for the best .22lr. My favorite (I have an annie that I will be inheriting, but I can't look at it to determine model #) is my mossberg 44us though. Sentimentality will add a lot of value to a gun.
Best for the price...
Look to a marlin bolt action. They are very accurate.
May 16, 2009, 03:11 AM
What sized groups are being reported from the Mark II's at 100y?
May 16, 2009, 03:25 AM
I have personally shot 1 MOA targets with my Mark 2. A friend of mine has been able to do slightly better than that with his brother's Mark 2. Same said friend confidently plans on shooting similiar groups with his own Mark 2 now that he has stopped using crap ammo.

I shoot a CZ 452 Special which I acquired last year. She shoots definitely better then I do. It's a well balanced, rather light weight rifle, that I love to shoot off hand with open sights.
Last week I got lucky enough to buy a Winchester Mod 75 Target, which I have yet to shoot.
She sports a Weaver 2x tube scope instead of the iron sights which was installed when the rifle was new. Original sling came attached as well.
She's in very good condition. I'd give her no less then a conservative 95%. The barrel bore is super clean, like a mirror.
Tomorrow might be the day!
Ps, "crap ammo" is a big handicap.
May 16, 2009, 05:21 AM

May 16, 2009, 07:17 AM
Yep. I agree. I love my 452.
May 16, 2009, 08:09 AM
Winchester 72A.
50+ years old and still kicking a$$. ;-)
May 16, 2009, 08:36 AM
I used to have a 72A with a peep sight and it was a great gun. I let my father trade it in on something or other that he wanted. Might have been a Smith Model 17 w/8.75" barrel and a Burris 2x. It's almost as accurate as the rifle w/the peep sight. My uncle still has an early 72 and it's extremely accurate as well.
Now my favorite is a Cooper Custom Classic with a Leupold 3x-9 EFR ...
May 16, 2009, 08:39 AM
The best shooting 22lr for the money in my opinion is the 452 or 453 for around $400.00 less than half inch groups @ 50 yards on everyone that I have ever shot even my sons Scout for $250.00 is capable and it like a wide aray of ammo. That being said I hunt with my 77/22. Ilike the way it feels and shoots almost as accurate as the CZ. Just my .02
May 16, 2009, 09:13 AM
"Best" is very subjective, my personal favorite is my Kimber Hunter. It's light, accurate, and has a wonderful trigger. I often use it to play and win games going up against heavy target rifles. My second choice would be the Anschutz 1700. The CZ452s are also fine rifles and are arguably the best bang for the back in a .22 bolt action. The only cons of the CZ is the trigger, IMHO they need a bit of minor tweeking to get them where I like them, and the stamped metal triggerguard, it just does not fit the quality of the rest of the rifle.
Kimber .22 Hunter

May 16, 2009, 09:21 AM
My Kimber M82 is one of the finest bolt action .22s I have ever seen.
I also have an M1922 Springfield, MKII that is a fine rifle.
May 16, 2009, 09:22 AM
For training purposes I regard the little Chipmunk I bought my son when he was 12 as the best deal around.
May 16, 2009, 09:26 AM
My favorite is a Remington 512 with a Weaver G6 scope mounted. Lot of sentimental value, yes. But this piece has been banging away since 1948 and puts up good competition against the Anschutz, CZ and NS 522 that are in my rack. I enjoy putting them all in a little competition against one another.
May 16, 2009, 11:17 AM
I love my CZs but they are just the nicest I own, certainly not near the nicest out there. I have to go with an Anschutz 54 action with whatever barrel profile and stock profile that fits your shooting best.
May 16, 2009, 11:20 AM
My favorite is my savage MKII, and for the money, i consider it unbeatable. VERY accurate.
May 16, 2009, 12:42 PM
I am a big fan of the 77/22
May 16, 2009, 01:08 PM
I've done a bunch of homework on this same subject. I've narrowed it down to 2 -- Savage Mk II and CZ 452. From what I've been able to gather, the CZ is built nicer -- nicer wood, nicer fit & finish. Both apparently shoot about the same w/ the weak link being the shooter.
May 16, 2009, 01:31 PM
I quite like my kimber 82.
May 16, 2009, 01:41 PM
Kimber, Weatherby/Anschutz, Anschutz, etc. are all really nice. And expensive.
CZs are really nice, and less expensive.
Marlin and Savage make some accurate, dependable, fun, American-made bolt rimfires for downright cheap, though.
Then there are used Winchesters, etc., and the Winchester Wildcat, which can be had for some great prices if you look around.
If you want a stand-in for a centerfire, Ruger makes exactly that: a gun with the size, proportions and ergos of their centerfires. The 77/22 is not inexpensive, though.
Old Mossbergs are possibly the best "sleepers." Their barrels are EXCELLENT, but the guns aren't the prettiest things and collectors don't go ga-ga over "Mossberg". For a good shooter for cheap, comb the gun shows and used racks for one.

My Remington Model Five is quite accurate. It's easily in the same arena with the CZ's and Savages...
I also have a Browning T-Bolt (new production) that's also quite impressive... but, it IS a Browning...
All of the other previously mentioned rifles are all quite good... some better (for the money) than others. But you can't go wrong with any of them...

May 16, 2009, 07:57 PM
My absolute favorite was the Anschutz I used during my time in college. I think the model was 1913L. The rifle was a dream to shoot offhand and shot beyond my abilities as a marksman. Sadly, we had to part ways on December 22nd last year :(
So now I have to "settle" for my CZ-452 LUX, which is still an incredible shooter and nicely fills every role for a .22 that I have.
May 16, 2009, 08:09 PM
I have a Cooey Model 39 that still shoots as good as it did 50 years ago.It is single shot and I won a scope from CIL back in the early 70's and it cost me $10 bucks to mount it and I got my first deer with it. I have a 1 inch scope on it now 40 years later and it probbably has many more years left in it.
Dave B
May 16, 2009, 08:36 PM
I sure like my Rem model 5. Got it late last year from Cabelas for $189.
May 16, 2009, 08:49 PM
My Tula Toz 78-01, was $100 back in the day from Centerfire. Ugly as heck, but shoots alot better than I can.
May 16, 2009, 09:11 PM
My favorite is my little Chipmunk. Shoots great, has a pretty good trigger, and I just love the "miniature" rifle proportions.
I would also say that the best bang for the buck would be any of the older used American made 22s. often can be found for around$100. I just picked up a Remington 341-p for 99.95 today. We will see how it shoots soon. I've found some good deals on older Mossbergs from time to time, and they all shot very well.
Take care,
May 16, 2009, 10:09 PM
My favorite is the Winchester 52 Sporter......took 25 years to find it. Price?....I'm not telling, but it's worth every penny.
What every .22 bolt action has tied to equal....only a couple have come close.
May 16, 2009, 10:21 PM
You win.
Another great shooter for 1/8th the money is the Remington 541-S. I think the 100 yard rimfire world sporter record is still held by one. I like mine anyway, faux Weatherby styling and all.
May 16, 2009, 10:22 PM
Kimber Model 82 Gov't via CMP for $600.00! Why is it the best? It just plain shoots.
May 16, 2009, 11:57 PM
My favorite is the Remington 541-S. It is hard to beat as an overall great rifle where accuracy is deemed a top priority on a sleek sporter design.
If buying a new rifle today, I think the best value for the price is either the Savage Mark II Classic or CZ 452.
May 17, 2009, 01:35 AM
my favorite, cz452 fs pretty much accurate outa the box w/scope or iron sights but found myself shooting more with irons, more fun and challenging
May 17, 2009, 01:55 AM
I have a remington target master that my Dad just passed down to me, he has had it since the 60s. It is always dead on, has the target peep sights, single shot, never misses a beat!!
May 17, 2009, 05:53 AM
I have heard bad things about the 77/22. However, my 77/22M is an honest minute-of-angle rifle with ammo it likes,
Well, they're Rugers. I expect to hear bad things about them.
On the other hand, both of my 77/22's (LR) shoot just fine also.
I don't know if they're "the best" or not, there's a lot I haven't shot, but they're my favorite.
Why? Classic good looks. I admit I wanted one from the first time I saw them twenty years or so ago. Solid feel. They look and feel like a "big rifle." Performance is plenty good enough for me.
Made in 1984. First year for the 77/22. Scope is an old Japanese 2x7x32 Simmons. I've killed a lot of squirrels with this gun.
1987. I don't know who put the Green Mountain barrel on it, or what other work has been done to it. I bought it this way except for the scope. I've shot it one time "out back" and it shot just fine. One of these days I'm going to have to take it to the range.
May 17, 2009, 06:56 AM
You have to spend twice as much as a 452 to get better. For less money, the Savage Mark IIs.
May 17, 2009, 12:53 PM
It's hard to beat CZ's for the price. There are a couple of Sako Quads w/ single barrel around or about $450 online or at http://www.whittakerguns.com/.
CZ was my favorite until the Quad hit the range. I don't think you can beat ether one unless you go with a 54 action Anschutz at over twice the cost.
I was able to get this group with the Quad and Wolf MT yesterday.
May 17, 2009, 02:05 PM
With this rifle and a $5 daisy BB gun scope I can shoot out primers of 12ga shells with every shot at 25 yards.
Oh yeah, the best part about this gun was that I paid less than $100 for it as I had a $50 gift card to Gander Mtn. And I suppose I should mention the ammo I shoot in my .22LRs...bulk 550 crap from Wallyworld.
May 17, 2009, 05:05 PM
"from Wallyworld."
Oh c'mon, you can't fool me, everybody knows Wallyworld doesn't have any ammo. :p
I haven't shot a Sako Quad, but it looks like it's a good shooter like the Finnfire - mine is a sporter.

May 17, 2009, 06:37 PM
Were I buying another, I'd opt for a CZ; I have one in the safe and it's a great shooter. But my favorite is a Remington 541T, sporter barrel, with a Leupold 6.5-20X EFR scope on it. It's a classic beauty that is accurate to boot.
Redneck with a 40
May 17, 2009, 06:56 PM
Here's mine, its a Marlin 22 magnum. I like a little more punch with my rounds.:p This thing will do 1" at 100 yards all day with cheap armscor ammo.
May 17, 2009, 09:15 PM
The Remington Model 5 is tough to beat in terms of value. Excellent accuracy, fit, and finish. Much better than you'd expect for a rifle that sells below $200 with a nice laminated wood stock.
May 17, 2009, 09:19 PM
To all the CZ owners on this thread: what ammo do you guys use?
I have a 452 FS and while its beautiful, it has been having pretty poor accuracy with the ammo ive tried- which is just Remington wal-mart bulk packs and CCI stingers. With either of those rounds it seems like its getting 2" at 50 yards or worse. Could just be me, but I doubt it as I shoot way better groups with my Sub2000 in .40 with cheap ammo.

Try to feed that rifle some sub-sonic ammo. You should see your groups shrink immediately. That rifle should be consistently shooting around 1/2" at fifty yards with some decent ammo.
Mine likes Wolf MT and Eley HP's equally and will keep under 1/2" @ 50 yards all day.
Keep the stingers away from that rifle, they could mess up your chamber.
May 17, 2009, 09:57 PM
Mine like federal champion 510 very well. Better than some of the mid grade stuff. Remington is junk, can't stand that ammo. Stingers are far from the accuracy round as well. I would try any standard velocity stuff or he 510 and see how that does.
May 18, 2009, 07:28 PM
bullpup, i also have an fs. my rifle is not really picky about ammo heres some range results @50 yards
these are cci mini mags 40gr i shot a while back @ 50yards, 5 shot
May 18, 2009, 07:36 PM
Thanks for the replies, I actually have a pack of federal 510 that I should try out as well as some remington sub sonic ammo. I whole-heartedly agree that Remington ammo sucks for rimfires, in addition to bad accuracy I have had several FTF with their ammo.
May 18, 2009, 07:56 PM
My 452lux seems to like Blazer rimfire ammo, I also shoot Winchester XpertHV high velocity 36gr bulk ammo though I have that on hand mostly because the Ruger mkII seems to like it. I am going to try get my hands on some subsonic stuff, is the Remington subsonic any good? It would probably be the easiest for me to find. Remington doesn't seem to have a good reputation with rimfire ammo, was wondering if their subsonic gets thrown in the same boat. Any particular subsonic brand I should look for with my 452?
May 18, 2009, 08:19 PM

The answer is NO to the first question.
My benchmark ammo is Wolf MT, it's consistently more accurate and less $ then others I've tried, including CCI, Eley up to Team, and RWS. If you want to keep the cost down I would go with some CCI, it may be easier to find and won't break the bank and should cost around $6.50 to $7.50 per 100.
May 18, 2009, 09:25 PM
My 452 also likes Federal 510. As for the Remington Five, I don't think you can get one for under $200 any more, can you?
May 18, 2009, 10:53 PM
I like my Marlin 981T.
May 18, 2009, 10:53 PM
My personal favorite bolt .22 is my Remington 511. It is the only .22 that I own that I will shoot at 100 yards with open sights.
September 27, 2009, 11:38 AM
I have a Winchester 72 given to me as a Christmas present when I was 13. I'm now 56 and I still have this rifle. It take shorts, long and long rifle cartridges. I have kept it unmodded with open sights. This old girl is dead on accurate. Probably worth more than my SKS or my AK. It's an excellent small game rifle and adds to my collection of various rifles and shotgun, that rounds out my small arsenal of weapons that covers all scenerios if the SHTF for survival purposes. I stocked up on ammo back in the 90s when it was inexpensive. I hope 7.62 ammo eventually goes back down but I have 1500 rnds. and about the same count on 9mm ammo stashed away and a couple bricks of 22 LR. Need to stock up on 12 gauge shells though for my Remington 870 shotgun.
September 27, 2009, 02:53 PM
the best of the 22 ammo choices are;
winny all types
feddy all types
cci all types
eley all types
aguila, all types made by eley
golden eagle, all types also made by eley.
wolf all types, also made in the same plant as lapua and sk.
american eagle red/black box. made by Feddy. surprisingly cheap and good.
feddy bulk pacs
winny bulk pacs, avoid cci bulk pacs.
remington, in the orange box, or yellow box, both made by Eley.
Since those top 5 brands have about 20 diff types of ammo each that they load, that is about 100 diff boxes to test out right there, alone.
If you use this whole list, you are going to find some ammo, your rifle can really shoot. NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.
Did I mention that remmy ammo is testicular juiceage, and should be avoided?
September 27, 2009, 07:59 PM
My West German Anschutz 164
Well it may not be the best bolt action .22 ever. However it's the only bolt action .22 I own and it's beautiful and does exactly what it's supposed to, it puts the rounds where they are supposed to go. It's one of those cases where the gun is certainly more accurate than I am.

September 27, 2009, 08:27 PM
My vote is for the Savage Mark II. I love that accutrigger. I put a cheap Bushnell 4x32 on mine and it is a tack driver at 50 yards with federal bulk round nose.
September 27, 2009, 09:17 PM
I'm very fond of my CZ 452 Trainer. But NWilliams has me salivating over that Annie 164 Sporter. It's on my to-buy list now.

Remington model five $179 at Academy wood and steel no fn plastic it really has a big center fire feel to it. Deck o cards at a hundred yards accurate is good enough for me and it comes with perty good iron sights and swing studs for a sling and integrated scope mount if u want to trow one on no need to drill or tap. Im happy with mine
September 28, 2009, 01:16 AM
i have a 77/22 that shoots awesome i love it. savage and marlin make great cheap guns though.
September 28, 2009, 04:10 PM
Both of my CZ's Federal target ammo. My Lux shoots pretty well with most ammo. But my Amercan is fussier and prefers Federal Target, it doesn't shoot stingers well at all. I think subsonic works best.
September 28, 2009, 04:16 PM
I recently landed myself a new (used) Savage MKII for a great price from a local guy. I mounted a Bushnell rimfire scope 4x32 on it, and it is a great little shooter. At 25 yards, it is one tiny ragged little hole barely bigger than a single round. At 100 yards, it groups around 1.5" on average. Very good for a bone stock Wally World special. The whole thing only ran me about $120 with scope and sling.
September 28, 2009, 04:50 PM
Winchester Model 67. Sweetest shooting .22 I have ever seen.
September 28, 2009, 05:30 PM
I have a Remington 541T as well. Mine has the heavy barrel, and a maple stock with a Redfield 3x9 scope. Total investment? $2.00 I won it in a raffle about 15 years ago. It will keep 5 shots on a nickle at 50 yards all day long. If I do my part.

winchester 69A was a nice gun. mine has a lyman micrometer and whelen sling.
September 30, 2009, 06:43 PM
I have a very accurate, nice handling Remington Model 504 sporter rifle. Nice rifle and priced @ around $400.00, give or take. Discontinued but still not hard to find.
September 30, 2009, 10:37 PM
I purchased a CZ 452 American after studying this last year. After many, many hours of reading I came to the conclusion that I would be most satisfied with this 22. For the money I doubt that there is another bolt action 22 that rivals it. Mine has unbelievable accuracy and I have not even had the trigger worked on yet. Last time I had it out I cut about a 1 1/2 inch diameter tree down with it from about 40 yards away with 5-6 shots. It is a tack driver.....very good decision.
September 30, 2009, 10:51 PM
My favorite bolt 22 is a 1960s Rem 512-X, tube feeder. It shoots anything you can put in the tube: short, long and long rifle. I love it, shoot it often and will pass it on to my first born child as it was passed to me. If we are talking new bolt 22s, I would love to get my hands on one of the Browning T-Bolts in .22 mag. Can anyone spare a grand for a scoped 22?
didn't think so. I still love my 512-X, it's awesome.
September 30, 2009, 10:58 PM
I like my Savage MK II FV the stock comb could be a little higher, it has the accu-trigger, I need to shoot it more but if it matches up to my Savage 93R17 I'll be more than happy it shoots 25 rounds at a 100 yds in a quarter size group.
Not as pricey as some mentioned here but they shoot here there with them.

The tri-county residential real estate market continues to hold its own compared to its peers throughout the Palmetto State.
A recent statewide report by South Carolina Realtors, a Columbia-based trade group, shows the Charleston region leads the state in volume of sales and fewest number of days for a home to sell.
This has been a recurring theme for the last several months.
The trade group's report shows that through the first five months of the year, the tri-county region had 5,042 home sales. That compared to 3,896 transactions in the Coastal Carolina region and 3,645 for Greater Greenville.
The report says the average home in the Charleston area was on the market 78 days from the time it was listed to the point of sale for the January-May period, seven fewer days from the year-earlier period.
The figure for Greenville was 90 days, down from 96 days last year.
Economists have been predicting that the Charleston and Greenville housing markets will be the strongest for South Carolina.
Fewer foreclosures
The Charleston region's foreclosure rate continues to decrease, but the local average remains higher than state and national figures, according to a new report.
Real estate information firm CoreLogic said last week that loans in foreclosure amounted to 1.94 percent of all outstanding mortgages in the Charleston-North Charleston-Summerville area in April. That's down more than a percentage point for the same month a year ago.
By comparison, the South Carolina and U.S. foreclosure rates averaged 1.75 percent and 1.77 percent, respectively, for April.
The group's report also showed the percentage of delinquent home loans continues to fall. About 4.37 percent of mortgages in the Charleston area were 90 days or more behind in April, down from 5.71 percent a year earlier.

For years, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority has asked the riding public to dig into their collective pockets whenever it was unable to live within its budgetary constraints. Not to worry, for they always can rely upon the riding public to make up the shortfall for the MTA's excessive spending practices.
Unfortunately, the riding public does not have this limitless well into which it can delve for financial relief.
For years, the MTA have been saying that they are required by law to have a balanced budget. That may be, but the only time that the MTA insists upon following the letter of the law is when it is asking for a fare increase.
On all other occasions, it will use every excuse and ploy at its disposal for refusing to engage in an honest declaration of its finances. So it has been with this round of politicking to get Albany to come to its rescue to avoid its "doomsday increases."
They continue to play this charade to induce those witless and dysfunctional wonders in Albany to come to their aid.
We all know that in the end, Albany will kick in some money to avoid the excessive fare hikes with which it has threatend the riding public.
What I do not understand is Albany's reluctance to withhold financial aid until the MTA permits lawmakers to review its books.
Who knows what wonders will be discovered if that day ever comes! In the meantime, this political charade continues to be played and the key players in Albany continue to be more involved with political one-upsmanship among the Senate, the Assembly and the governor.
In the end, no matter how much pressure is brought to bear, Albany will not do anything until the Big Three state leaders are ready to tackle the budget, leaving the riding public in the middle.

He's on a Dancing high!
J.R. Martinez became the first contestant to earn a perfect score on Dancing with the Stars Monday night, when he performed a waltz that judge Bruno Tonioli called "divine." And then, he and partner Karina Smirnoff did it again – earning a total of 60 points – with their second dance, an "instant" jive.
"We're on cloud 60 right now," an excited Martinez told PEOPLE after Monday's show.
"This is as good as it gets," Smirnoff said.
Martinez admits he was initially reluctant to take on the waltz but once he was able to "touch up" on the steps, he said he "felt really good coming into" a night of double performances.
"My expectations were of course, trying to get the first 30 of the season," he said. "But to get the 60, the perfect score in two dances is ... money."
But he's got very little time to celebrate his accomplishment. The plan – if he survives Tuesday's elimination – is to go "back to work."
"It's a week-to-week competition That's been the biggest thing, I think, to push me through, to keep myself humble," he said, adding that he'll "push hard" every day.

"Alexander Chen, aka Boy in Static - 23 years old, residing in Boston, grew up in New Jersey and downtown Philadelphia, musical socialisation via classical piano and viola in the school string orchestra, later guitar and discovery of the wonderful world of CPU-clocked sounds and music. No (notable) band memberships, just going it alone. This can be difficult, when the heliocentric part takes the upper hand, but can also lead to revelation and fulfillment, when your own demo somehow finds its way to the label of your favourite band and is well received, leading to the release of the first album. Enter "Newborn": ten times DIY-homerecording using contemporary methods, ten songs made up of acoustic guitar, crazy fingerboard playing, rumbling bass, muted singing, distorted drums, expressive string sequences galore, cheap E-Bay organ and carefully orchestrated laptop manouvres. So it is something that has not yet been heard in this world of reference-modellers and categerisers. Not rock, not electronic, not folk. Not 'post-', not 'pre-', simply there." (label info)

UW chancellor sees campus role in economic development
The new chancellor at the state's flagship university wants to boost the school's role in economic development.
Rebecca Blank, chancellor of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, met this week with the head of Wisconsin's chief job creation agency.
Reed Hall, CEO of the Wisconsin Economic Development Corp., said he and Blank discussed ways they can work together on economic development. Hall said Blank suggested the meeting, and she also plans to meet soon with WEDC vice presidents.
Blank started at UW-Madison on July 22, after having served as acting U.S. Secretary of Commerce.
Blank, 57, earned a bachelor's degree in economics from the University of Minnesota. She has held academic positions at Northwestern University, the University of Michigan, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Princeton University. She was also a visiting fellow in UW's Department of Economics and Institute for Research on Poverty in 1985.
Blank will be a guest Sunday on "UpFront with Mike Gousha."

The Anguish of the War in Lebanon Is Mirrored in the Troubled Face of Israeli Dissent
Two weeks ago Israel's youngest full colonel on active duty, Eli Geva, 32, asked to be relieved of his command rather than lead his troops north of Sidon into Beirut. The son of a general, Geva was a well-known hero of the 1973 war, and Begin himself asked Geva to change his mind. "Many of my soldiers would be killed, and so would many civilians," Geva reportedly told the Prime Minister, "and it would not bring a solution." Geva asked only to be reassigned, but he was discharged from the army. Suddenly the growing antiwar movement gained a symbol—and the world took notice of the real and growing dissent within Israel against this war.
Geva was hardly the first Israeli soldier to voice doubts about the course of military action. Just weeks after the invasion began, in June, two young paratroop reservists transformed their discontent into a movement. Yoni Oren, 28, and Udi Shiloni, 27, formed Soldiers Against Silence soon after completing their tours of active duty at the front in Lebanon. Their movement now claims a few hundred followers, many of whom have donated their $20 separation bonus to pay for SAS's antiwar newspaper advertisements. The group has demanded the resignation of Defense Minister Arik Sharon, architect of the invasion. Oren and Shiloni regularly picket Begin's office. "I do accept that we have no choice but to fight the PLO," says Oren, a kibbutz farmer in civilian life. "But from what I saw in this war, the main aim was not only to destroy the PLO but to use the army for the creation of a new order in the Middle East. We felt the army was being used to solve political and not military matters, and this is contrary to what, in our mind, the purity of the army should be." Adds Shiloni, a Hebrew University law student: "The initial idea of organizing a protest movement came to us while fighting, right there on the battlefield, but the actual organization came only when it was over and we were taking off our uniforms."
SAS has been controversial since its founding and has engendered bitterness from some critics who feel that its words and deeds border on treason. Although SAS members have all put in their time at the front, Begin claims that they and their allies are "responsible for encouraging the PLO not to evacuate West Beirut." Though no one knows how many Israelis support the various antiwar movements, leaders now claim 25 percent of the population, many of them reserve personnel. "I myself have taken part in five wars," says reserve Col. Mordechai Bar-On, 55. "I have good conduct medals from each. I shall do everything in my power to ensure that my 3-year-old grandson will not wear a good conduct medal. Ever."
Bar-On, a former infantry commander and personal assistant to Gen. Moshe Dayan, was one of the founders of Peace Now. That four-year-old organization came into being when Bar-On and a group of other army officers banded together and wrote to Begin, begging him not to ignore the peace overtures of the late Egyptian President Anwar Sadat. While Soldiers Against Silence restricts its activities to opposing the invasion of Lebanon, Peace Now has been a persistent critic of many Begin actions it views as aggressive. Its members meet every Sunday night in a Jerusalem cellar to discuss strategy. Though it lacks both an organizational structure and formal membership lists, the group has been able to bring out as many as 100,000 protesters to its demonstrations through word of mouth. "It's very much like an Athenian democracy," says Bar-On enthusiastically.
The members of Peace Now are drawn from every corner of Israeli life. Since virtually all Israelis must serve in the military, most Peace Now members are either veterans or in the reserve army. "Those who lead the Peace Now movement are actually those who did the fighting," says Tzali Reshef, 29, a veteran who studied at Harvard and is a successful lawyer in Jerusalem. With Bar-On, Reshef is credited with founding the movement in 1978—and with giving it its uniquely unstructured form. "We are a group leading the movement because we did not want a personality cult," he says.
Still, there are strong personalities at the helm of Peace Now. One of the most visible—and vocal—is Dr. Janet Aviad, 40, a transplanted Philadelphian with a degree in religion from the University of California. A widow who emigrated to Israel with her son after her husband died in 1973, Aviad became active in Peace Now last December, irate over a conflict that preceded the Lebanon war. "Sharon imposed a collective punishment on the West Bank village of Beit Sahur," she recalls. "Some 16-year-old boys had been throwing stones at Israeli Army vehicles. The houses of their parents were all blown up by the authorities. What could the parents do? Could I control my son at the age of 16 to such an extent that myself and my family would rightly be punished for any act of his?"
The leaders of Peace Now reject the charge that they are leftists: They claim that even some members of Begin's conservative Likud bloc support their efforts. But they are also aware that they run the risk of being dismissed as simply a protest movement, which has contributed no positive solutions to Israel's problems while constantly criticizing the government. For that reason, Tzali Reshef is now urging his fellow Peace Now leaders to develop a political program for Israel's future. "We must do something fast," he says. "Otherwise it will be like the proverb in which the dogs bark, but the caravan still moves on." As Tzali Reshef realizes all too well, unless someone devises a better way to conduct statecraft, Israel, like Lebanon and the rest of the Middle East, will not find peace now, or perhaps ever.

Last year, Isaac Bancaco was named one of the "Top Young Chefs to Watch" in Hawaii and recognized as a "Future Face of Hawaii Tourism."
Born and raised on Maui, this young chef attended the Western Culinary Institute (now Le Cordon Bleu) in Portland, Ore., and he has appeared on "Iron Chef" with James Beard winner Ming Tsai.
He's also cooked for Tsai at the master chef's Blue Ginger in Boston, cooked in?Los Angeles for another James Beard award winner, Oahu's Roy Yamaguchi; and he most recently kicked up his chef reputation with his innovative "localvore" menu at the Humuhumunukunukuapua'a at the Grand Wailea.
Article Photos
Born and raised on Maui, Isaac Bancaco joined the Pineapple Grill team in Kapalua earlier this month as the executive chef. His special here is antipasto influenced Kona kampachi with baby beet necks, mango, pipikaula (dried beef, Hawaiian style), and pohole fern shoots in papaya-seed emulsion. For reservations, call 669-9600.
The Maui News / CARLA TRACY photo
"This is officially my third day," Bancaco said in an interview during the Kapalua Wine & Food Festival. "I just did a gala for 900 people. The Ramey wine dinner, which we sold out. And I created the lunch at the shot-gun golf tourney for all of the players. This is a crash course in the Kapalua scene, but I'm ecstatic to be here."
That's because Bancaco's family is from Kapalua. Espiritu is his family name, well known in the area.
"Coming to Kapalua is a homecoming within a homecoming. Sure, I'm being thrown into the fire. Right now, I'm making some fun specials. And, I'll add my own menu twists soon."
"I hope to bring a new clean look to the Pineapple Grill. Ryan Luckey has left a great legacy behind and I have great respect for him and this restaurant."
"We are thrilled to have Chef Bancaco join the family of Cohn Restaurants," says Chris Kaiwi, PG's managing partner.

"Rain, Reign"
By: Ann M. Martin
Rose Howard is obsessed with homonyms. She's thrilled that her own name is a homonym, and she purposely gave her dog Rain a name with two homonyms (Reign, Rein) which, according to Rose's rules of homonyms, is very special. Not everyone understands Rose's obsessions, her rules, or other things that make her different-not her teachers, not other kids, and not her single father. When a storm hits their rural town, rivers overflow, roads are flooded, and Rain goes missing. Rose's father shouldn't have let Rain out. Now, Rose has to find her dog, even if it means leaving he routines and safe places to search. Hearts will break and spirits will soar for this powerful story, brilliantly told from Rose's point of view.

As a young boy growing up in Ireland, Patrick Sarsfield Gilmore loved music — the louder, the better! This love of music followed him to Boston in 1849, where he became a bandleader. During the brutal Civil War, it was music that kept up his spirits and those of his fellow soldiers. So when the war ended and peace was restored to the country, Patrick had an idea. He would create the biggest, boldest, loudest concert the world had ever known to celebrate. A peace jubilee! But with twelve cannons, forty church bells, one thousand musicians, and ten thousand singers, just how would all of this sound? Matt Tavares's spirited illustrations burst with sound words in perfect harmony with Alicia Potter's triumphant story of the joy of music.

Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD
Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD + 16 page booklet.
Never before have we seen an Elvis Presley concert from the 1950's with sound. Until Now! The DVD Contains recently discovered unreleased film of Elvis performing 6 songs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Don't Be Cruel, live in Tupelo Mississippi 1956. Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever.
This is an excellent release no fan should be without it.
The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people. Highly recommended.

Not The Quality I Expected From Babyliss
I've had a couple Babyliss titanium flat irons. I got one of the first series then replaced it when it died then had to replace the one my daughter took to college. Love the full size and Babyliss quality but the mini only has one heat setting which is too hot for my hair and it doesn't close all the way. There's a gap between plates when I try to straighten my bangs while traveling. Maybe the next generation one will be better.

Awesome Flat Iron!
I really love this flat iron for travel purposes. I do have long hair and it takes me a while to straighten it, but overall, it has done a great job. I took it with me on my trip to Europe and it worked very well. I was pleased with it overall.

Am I Just The Only One?!
this little iron doesn't heat up as much as they claim to on here. It leaves my hair straight but not sleek straight, it's more like frizzy straight so I have to apply serum when wet and when dry. I have medium length hair and it's also thin. I was expecting better from Babyliss. Or perhaps I got a defected iron? that also crossed my mind.

I have been using this flat iron over the last 2 years. It works really well on my thick hair, actually it exceeded my expectations. However, it does not have a button to control the temperature.

I bought this for my girlfriend because it was the only flat iron I could find that had .5 inch plates. The metal of the handle gets really hot and burned her, and the handle was also slightly sticky and rubbed blue stuff onto her hand the first time she used it. It technically works, but i'm disappointed.

The Best Ever
I did get the results that I anticipated it is the best ever that I have used. From the moment the iron heated up I immediately began to flat iron my hair with awesome results the BEST. Try it you'll like it !!!!!

Too Hot To Handle
This gets so hot it is hard to use. Can't hold it without burning your fingers! I have an el cheapo mini iron and the casing is thick enough that this is not a problem with it. I do like the titanium plates better but I feel I am not getting the full benefit of the iron because of the inability to handle it as I would like to. I know heat gloves are available but really, who can style their hair wearing gloves. Also, no temp control which I do not like. I really would not recommend this.

The Worst Flat Iron I Have Ever Owned.
I bought this flat iron for a trip to Europe because it was a BaByliss, and I loved the regular sized one. My hair is very frizzy and unrully, so a flat iron is a must. It has only one heat setting, and it FRIED my hair. It broke the hair on the top of my head, and made me look like I had put my finger in an electric socket.
