Hate to Say It, but We Told You So!
It seems rather silly now, doesn't it, all the US concern about terrorism?
The nuclear crisis in Japan, which continues to worsen, threatens to become a total multiple meltdown, combined with the perhaps even more disastrous explosion and fire in one or several spent fuel rod ponds. If any of these things happen, not to mention many of them, several hundred square miles of Japan would be rendered indefinitely uninhabitable, costing hundreds of billions of dollars. And it could be worse. If the winds are blowing south during such a disaster, all of Tokyo, which has a metropolitan population of over 30 million, could have to be evacuated.
A study by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission back in 1997, found that one spend fuel disaster could devastate almost 200 square miles of the US, and cause half a trillion dollars in damage!
And we're spending hundreds of billions of dollars a year chasing after a few thousand ragtag Taliban fighters and supposedly pursuing a few hundred Arab terrorists, most of whom are fighting back with their shoes and their underwear?
So where is the real risk to America's security?
Well, for starters, we could consider the 23 nuclear plants currently operating in the US that were built by General Electric using the same basic flawed design as those that are blowing up in Fukushima, Japan right now. Those plants, which are located in my state of Pennsylvania, as well as everywhere from Alabama to Nebraska and Vermont, are as much as 40 years old. They are only still in operation today because the NRC is such an industry-captive regulator that it has granted them long license extensions running way past their sell-by date. It has even given many of them the okay to run at capacities exceeding 100% of design standards!
There are other plants, also creaky with age, such as the ones in San Onofre and Diablo Canyon, California, which were knowingly built within a few miles of major earthquake faults--faults which could produce earthquakes on a scale of the one that just hit Japan. Both those facilities were designed to allegedly be able to survive (when new) a 7.5 quake. That was an untestable assertion of faith, but in any case, with an 8, an 8.5 or a 9, all bets would be off.
San Onofre, by the way, is closer to Los Angeles than Fukushima is to Tokyo, so if there is a threat now that Tokyo might have to be evacuated, a similar blowup of the San Onofre nuke reactor would have the millions of people in Los Angeles evacuating their city--maybe back to Oklahoma where their forebears fled from the Dust Bowl (maybe we could call them LAkies, though hopefully they'd get a friendlier reception than L.A. gave to the okies of yore).
So much for America's only remaining export: the film industry.
It would make far more sense for the US to forget about those alleged terrorists who are supposedly out to get us (and to stop mucking around in the Middle East countries and provoking all that anger!) and instead to spend some of that Pentagon and Homeland Security swill to shut down these old nuke plants, and even many newer ones that are built in vulnerable locations, so we don't have to suffer a disaster of our own making like the people of Japan are facing today.
Don't expect much from our two nuke-besotted political parties, though.

"Are they harboring any false impressions that they will get full face value?"I sense that you believe that someone who has bought a share of preferred at a great discount to $50 does not "deserve" the $50 liquidation preference. Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. Does someone who buys common in the $0.70's "deserve" an offer much in excess of that if President Smulyan decides to take the company private?
EMMS traded at $28.xx in Dec 2003 and at $10.xx in June 2007.No shareholder in his right mind will be outraged at any going private offer that is even a 70% haircut from those prices.What is the "face value" of the common then?If the preferreds are willing to accept 20% of peak traded market price in the last 5 years, I am willing (as a shareholder of the common) to accept 20% of the peak traded market price in the last 5 years :-)We can go around in circles with this....
A going private offer is different from issuing pfd's just to get a certain percent owned especially with the voting agreement where the "owner" isn't controlling the vote in reality.

Hopefully before you start creating groups, you've spent some time planning how you're going to implement them. Creating groups at random kind of defeats the purpose of using them to simplify computer administration. Planning involved identifying how many groups you require, what they will be used for and group membership requirements.
After you've finished planning, you're ready to begin creating them using the Computer Management console.
To create a new group:
- Right click Computer and select Manage.
- Select Local Users and Groups.
- Select Groups.
- Click More Actions and click New Group
Under the Group name field, type in a name for the group. Be sure that this is a name that makes the group easily identifiable from the others. Optionally, you can type in a description for the group.
Next, click the Add button to select the accounts that will be members of the groups. Type in the name of the account and click the Check Names button. Select the appropriate account from the list that appears and click OK. Repeat this process for any additional accounts you want to add. Once you are done, click Create and then click Close.
You can add additional accounts to the group at any time by double clicking the group to open its properties dialog box. Alternatively, you can also right click the group and select the Add to group option. Click the Add button to locate the account you want to add.
Once you are finished, you can assign permissions to the new group. For example, you can assign the group Read permission to a folder on the computer. Through inheritance, all user accounts who are members of the group will have read permission to the folder.

If you thought Karen Garza had an inside track on the HISD superintendent's job, think again. In fact, Garza, HISD's chief academic officer since 2005, now intends to leave the district (for real this time). The Lubbock ISD school board voted unanimously this morning to name Garza the sole finalist for the superintendent's job there. The board has to wait 21 days to make it official, but Garza is expected to start in her new post July 1. HISD Superintendent Abelardo Saavedra said he intends to name an interim academic chief soon.
HISD's two biggest teacher groups, the Houston Federation of Teachers and the Congress of Houston Teachers, have always expressed strong support for Garza, even though they don't much like the performance pay program she oversees.
Here's what Saavedra had to say about Garza in a written statement:
"This is a huge loss for HISD and a huge gain for the Lubbock ISD. Karen has been a force for improving the academic standing of HISD and its schools. Her leadership, in working with the Board of Education, the regional superintendents, principals, and teachers, has helped HISD to make very strong academic progress during her tenure. We've been blessed to have someone of Dr. Garza's skills and abilities. She will be missed, but we wish her well in her new post and know that great things are in store for the Lubbock ISD."
What do you think will be Garza's legacy?

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The thicket of cameras, microphones and tape recorders formed a semicircular cage around him. And Corey Dillon, who admitted he liked interviews even less than being trapped in Cincinnati, sat there and smiled through questions long and short, personal and detached, pointed and idiotic.
"This is fun. Having an opportunity to play in a Super Bowl," said the Patriots running back, six days shy of his first, "it's just an awesome feeling."
In the last off-season, Dillon, labeled "Villain Dillon" during his long and complaint-filled career as a Bengal, at last won a reprieve from that dis-organization. For the discounted price of a second-round draft choice, the Super Bowl champion Patriots had the topflight runner they lacked.

THE FORMER Kate Middleton should have gone Bridezilla upside her sister's head over that bridesmaid dress.
She never should have said yes to that dress.
Catherine, henceforth Her Royal Highness, the Duchess of Cambridge, was a radiant bride, evoking memories of the late Princess Grace with her virginal-looking, long lacy sleeves and full-skirted wedding gown by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen.
But Pippa Middleton, 27, really turned up temperatures in a sexy, body-skimming dress also by Burton. When onlookers caught sight of her in that cowl-necked dress showing off her svelte physique, there were audible gasps.
On Twitter, she quickly became a trending topic.

Winery website: http://www.watermillwinery.com/
Watermill Winery, located in Milton-Freewater Oregon, continues to churn out wines that represent a good value and this bottle of Merlot is no exception.
Technical Data:
- Varietals: 100% Merlot
- Vineyards: Pepper Bridge, Seven Hills West, and McClellan Estate
- Oak: 50% new American oak and 50% neutral American oak
- Alcohol %: 14.7
- Production: 114 cases
- Release Date: April 8, 2011
- Price: $24
Nose: Black currant, blackberry compote, spice, pepper and leather all abound in spades on the nose of this lovely merlot.
Taste: This is an ultra silky-smooth Merlot that has the ability to really showcase what a sexy varietal Merlot really is. Tons of dark fruit, black pepper, spice, leather and black currant. It's dark, fruity, with a mouthfeel to die for – and none of it gets lost because it has just enough acid to pull it off. This is a Merlot that should be selling for far more than its asking price and one I'd snatch up in a heartbeat before the Brown family reads this review.

The 18 members of the College of Charlestons Board of Trustees will meet today to decide whether the school will remain in the Southern Conference or jump to the Colonial Athletic Association.
College of Charleston and the CAA
Reasons to Stay Travel time and costs are lower in Southern Conference Better chance to win conference championship Have established rivalries with SoCon members Cost of moving to CAA is almost $1 millionReasons to Leave CAA is a stronger league with better competition in most sports CAA could give Cougars a better chance for NCAA at-large berth in basketball CAA would enhance College of Charleston brand name More television exposure The future of the SoCon is uncertain
But whats at stake is more than just a conference affiliation its the future of the university on and off the playing fields and courts.
The board is expected to vote on the proposal to leave the SoCon and join the CAA after the athletics committee and athletic director Joe Hull present their report to the full board. A simple majority is all that will be required for the proposal to pass. A 9-9 tie would mean the resolution would fail, and the Cougars would remain in the SoCon.
This isnt only about what conference were going play in or who the basketball or volleyball teams are going to play against, said board member Dwight Johnson, the chairman of the athletics committee. This is about making the College of Charleston a national university by attracting the best and brightest professors and students from across the country. A conference affiliation can be hugely important in that endeavor.
The pros and cons of making the jump to the more competitive CAA are as varied as the opinions on the board itself.
The report
To help the board make an informed decision, the athletics committee compiled a comprehensive 32-page report detailing the arguments for and against a move to the CAA. The report makes a persuasive case for the Cougars move to the CAA, which includes an enhanced brand name and academic reputation of the school in Northeast markets, such as Washington, Philadelphia, New York and Boston. That combined with more television exposure, especially for the basketball team, a greater chance of receiving NCAA at large bids in all sports, and the CAAs ability to attract better student-athletes to Charleston all make for compelling reasons to join forces with the CAA.
The athletic department and the athletics committee did their due diligence, said Gregory Padgett, the boards chairman. I think the report speaks for itself.
Johnson said the Cougars exposure to those large Northeast markets not only will attract more students and better athletes but also will bring in more money from potential donors.
Weve got alumni groups in Washington and New York already, Johnson said. Outside of South Carolina, a very large number of students at the College come from New Jersey. We believe that from a fundraising standpoint, well see the number of potential donors go up significantly with our footprint in the Colonial league.
A major reason for the proposed move is the increased television exposure the mens basketball would receive. The CAA signed a new contract with the NBC Sports Network, which will feature 18 nationally televised games and 33 regional games. The SoCon has just four national games with ESPN and no regional televised games.
I just remember when Charleston Southern played UCLA in the NCAA tournament and all exposure they received, Johnson said.
While those arguments are persuasive, board member Jeff Schilz isnt so sure the same thing cant be accomplished by remaining in the SoCon and at a cheaper overall cost. The cost of playing teams from as far away as Boston, New York and Washington is staggering. The report estimated it would cost the Cougars $587,000 more to travel in the CAA.
For some schools and some athletic departments thats not a lot of money, but it is for the College of Charleston, said Schilz, who played baseball for the Cougars in 1990s. We could achieve the same exposure by mandating that every sport play a team from the Northeast corridor. That would cost the athletic department a lot less than going to the Colonial, and Im just not sure we have a whole lot in common with schools like Northeastern, Hofstra and Drexel.
Schilz believes the travel money could be more wisely spent across the athletic department.
We could use that money and build a better infrastructure and upgrade our facilities, especially at Patriots Point, Schilz said.
The SoCons future
One of the hopes for the board was that other SoCon members would follow the Cougars into the CAA. Davidson, Elon, UNC-Greensboro and Furman had been rumored for months as possible partners in what could have been a south division in the CAA. Davidson announced Wednesday that it would remain in the Southern Conference.
Meanwhile, SoCon members Appalachian State and Georgia Southern have publicly expressed their interest in moving up to the Football Bowl Subdivision. Both want a bigger share of the football pie. Two sources in the SoCon confirmed that Appalachian State, while still hopeful of a move to a FBS conference, would remain in the league for the foreseeable future.
Some of the travel expenses in the boards report were based on the assumption that there was going to be a South Division in the CAA, Schilz said. Well, we know thats not going to happen so those figures could possibly go up even more.
Johnson admits that the demise of the SoCon had been a factor in his support for the move to the CAA.
That was about 50 percent of it, Johnson said. Theres been a tremendous upheaval in conference realignment in the last 18 months. When the music stops you dont want to be the one school without a chair to sit in.
The SoCon is the fourth-oldest athletic league in the country. When the league was formed in 1921, its original 14-team membership included the likes of Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Georgia, Georgia Tech, North Carolina, North Carolina State and Virginia. Schilz is confident that the SoCon could survive the departure of Appalachian State and Georgia Southern.
Revenue sharing
A move to the CAA could mean more money for the athletic department, maybe even as much as $1 million.
But those figure are based on assumptions that the mens basketball team will win the CAA on a semi-regular basis and play in the NCAA basketball tournament, Schilz said.
The Cougars have not won the SoCon or been to the NCAA basketball tournament in more than a decade. So why, Schilz contends, can the school count on the Cougars having more success in what is perceived as a tougher league. The SoCon was the 23rd ranked league in basketball last season, while the CAA was 14th.
The CAA rewards teams in the league for their success on the court. As teams are more successful, they receive a bigger share of the revenue.
The Cougars could get $400,000 from the CAA if they win the conference title and win two NCAA games over a six-year period.
That figure could get as high as $675,000 if they win two CAA titles and four NCAA tournament games over a six-year period.
If we were dominating the SoCon that would be one thing, Schilz said. We havent won a conference championship in 12 years and have won only one NCAA tournament in the history of our program. I just think we need to be realistic. Some of the projections that have been made in the report assume a lot of things that we havent done around here in a long, long time.

Clay Aiken is receiving widespread kudos from lesbian and gay organizations for coming out as a gay man in this week's PEOPLE.
"We congratulate Clay for making this decision and for setting an example for others and his family," Neil Giuliano, president of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation said Tuesday morning. "As we're seeing, more and more gay people, including celebrities, are living openly and honestly, and this has tremendous impact in terms of creating awareness, understanding and acceptance."
Jennifer Chrisler, the executive director of the Family Equality Council, also chimed in: "Much like Rosie O'Donnell, the announcement that Clay Aiken is gay reinforces a simple reality: the American public can no longer say it does not know a gay or lesbian parent.
"Clay Aiken's desire to raise a child in an open and honest manner will make his life, and his son's, all the better. We hope he and his son find all the happiness they deserve, and the Family Equality Council will work toward the day that Clay and Parker Foster Aiken can enjoy the same rights as other American families."
Aiken, 29, tells PEOPLE he came out four years ago to his mother, but decided to publicly acknowledge that he's gay because "I cannot raise a child to lie or to hide things."

Tenth Edition, November 2013
Click here to access the Directory
Since 1985, the Music Library Association has issued its Directory of
Library School Offerings in Music Librarianship with two audiences in
mind: prospective music librarians in search of programs of higher education
that will prepare them for a career in our profession, and educators and career
counselors who are assisting these prospective music librarians.
The Directory, now in its tenth edition, lists programs offered by
institutions of higher education in the United
States and Canada. Entries are arranged
geographically by state or province, and then alphabetically within those
divisions by institution name.
Each entry includes information on:
Indexes provide quick access to institutions offering double degree programs,
those offering the master's degree in library science with a concentration in
music, those offering courses in music librarianship and music materials, those
accepting music course credits towards the library degree, those offering
continuing education, and those offering distance learning opportunities.
In preparation for this tenth edition, emails were sent to representatives
of library school programs currently accredited by the American Library
Association. Each representative reviewed the entry published in the ninth
edition (2011) and either updated the information or submitted an entirely new
entry. The emails were sent in August 2013, and responses were received between
August and September 2013. In a few cases, no response was received to the
email or the follow-up attempts; for these, we deleted the entry rather than
carrying over information from the 2013 edition.
Readers are encouraged to consult the websites of individual programs for
updated information on curricular offerings and contact information.
This edition was prepared with technological support and assistance from Veronica
Wells of the MLA Web Committee.

Pocono Mountain School District is in the very beginning stages of setting up a committee and sub-committees to research the possibility of establishing a standardized dress code that could result in school uniforms for the district.
"We do not have a specific date set yet on when we will have any type of proposal ready for the school board and the public to review," said district spokeswoman Wendy Frable Friday.
"We plan to gather information from the whole school community - administrators, teachers, parents, students, etc. – on the possible establishment of standard dress code.
"We also have to carefully research any impact this could have on our Title I funding, if it would be necessary to help families that cannot afford required clothing items. "
The Monroe County school district serves children in the borough of Mount Pocono, and Barrett, Coolbaugh, Jackson, Paradise, Pocono, Tobyhanna and Tunkhannock townships.
Last month all students in the Allentown School District began wearing standardized school uniforms, a policy that the district spent more than a year developing. Allentown's policy was similar to one that already existed in Reading.

The mother of the student made a complaint with the village on March 28, according to the Tuesday statement. She complained a member of the police department used force to seize her son after he had run from a Hillsdale County elementary school playground, Smith reported. Jonesville police had been sent to the area by the 911 dispatch center.
On March 29, Smith enlisted the services of the Michigan State Police to do an "independent evaluation of the situation," according to the statement. Detective Sgt. Marc Moore of the Monroe post is handling the investigation, Smith reported.
Corbett was placed on leave Friday, according to the statement.
The statement does not specify what school the child attended. Emily B. Williams Elementary School, 440 Adrian St. is the only elementary school in Jonesville.

The drama is over. The Blues and Alex Pietrangelo have finally reached a deal. The team announced on Friday afternoon that the defenseman has signed a seven-year, $45.5 million contract. The deal will pay Pietrangelo $6.5 million a year.
Widely considered to be one of the best defenders in the league, Pietrangelo will now be paid like one.
As seen in the team's release, Doug Armstrong understands just how valuable Pietrangelo is to the Blues:
We're excited to have Alex in the fold for the next seven years as he will continue to be a key component of our franchise. He is an elite defenseman in this league and will be for years to come.
That sums it up. Pietrangelo is one of the best young defenders in the NHL and the Blues had to dig deep in order to keep him in St. Louis. He'll have the highest average salary of any defenseman on the roster.
After talks stalled some believed that a bridge deal might be a possibility in order to get Pietrangelo signed before the 2013-14 campaign starts. It would be a temporary solution to a long-term problem. Though it would mean we'd see Pietrangelo in the lineup, the defenseman's future would still be clouded in mystery. Thankfully, that's not what happened.
Now that he has a new contract, Pietrangelo will report to camp and business will proceed as usual.

The former St Vincent de Paul Orphanage, established at Emerald Hill (South Melbourne) in 1855, was the first purpose built Catholic orphanage in Victoria. Although the original orphanage building of 1858-1859, as designed by architect George and Schneider, housed both boys and girls, it was found to be both inadequate and poorly built, and after the Sisters of Mercy assumed responsibility for the girls' section of the orphanage in 1861, new buildings were erected, most probably to details by the little known John B Denny, the diocesan clerk of works and effective understudy to William Wardell. Additions at the orphanage in 1866 were certainly by Denny, and his austere and secular gothic hand is clearly evident.
The addition of a rectory, schoolroom, dormitories, and an infirmary, all of disparate architectural origins, preceded the construction of a chapel at the girls' orphanage in 1900. The modest brick chapel, originally designed by the Catholic architect Kempson and Connolly, was remodelled in 1923 and again in 1938 by the architect TJ Power, when the side walls were replaced with an arcade of gothic piers and arches, and new side aisles introduced.
The present chapel fabric, which is largely concealed by twentieth century extensions and first floor additions, essentially dates from the building program of 1938, although further alterations were made to the interior in 1954.
The former St Vincent de Paul Girls Orphanage at South Melbourne is of great significance to the history of charitable institutions in Victoria, and to the history of pastoral care in the Catholic Church in the mid nineteenth century. The principal building of the former girls orphanage is a distinctive example of Secular Gothic architecture in Melbourne and is of particular interest for the early associations with the architectural development of South Melbourne. The chapel, being an integral element of the orphanage, has both physical and spiritual care of the Sisters of Mercy at the site, but is of only marginal architectural significance, being now both deconsecrated and part vandalised.

This book is composed of the more than 30 papers read and the panel discussion held during a two-day conference at the Downstate Medical Center, New York in 1963. Since such conferences are attended only by a limited number of invited participants, the final publication of the papers and of the discussion is a necessity. Although some of the papers have been brought up to date, one realizes that more than two years have elapsed since the conference. Nevertheless, it is of value to the scientific world that this large pool of information and the ferment produced by the discussion has become available. Such a spread of information and of ideas is especially important when, as in this book, the topics have an appeal to a wide spectrum of investigators, from biophysicists to internists and surgeons. Reading the proceedings of a panel discussion is not the same as being present

I always enjoy sharing these BTS (behind the scenes) videos with everyone because it shows the hard work that both the photographer and model put into a photo shoot. On this particular day I went with photographer,Elena Jasic, to the Meat Packing District in NYC to meet Major Model, Jake Bacaner, for a test shoot. Check out this BTS look at their test shoot.

Dairy Production Medicine (DPM) Certificate Program
Continuing Education for Dairy Practitioners in the 21st Century
DPM Version VII includes instruction for a wide variety of cutting-edge dairy practice innovations, hands-on farm problem solving, and the latest in dairy production analysis. Penn State Veterinary Extension faculty are partnering with nationally-recognized faculty, researchers, and practitioners to deliver challenging, up-to-date, practical modules. The DPM program offers fourteen 3-day "modules" which will be conducted over two-and-a-half years, starting October 22, 2015.
DPM VII Has a New Structure
This Program will be similar to the traditional DPM programs we have offered in updated versions since 1992, but will have some new options with topic flexibility. The 10 select CORE modules will be geared toward critical farm enterprises controlling profitability where the dairy practitioner can actively engage in new services.
In addition, we are offering ELECTIVE modules that focus on animal wellbeing, disease control and therapeutics, advanced topics in reproduction and nutrition, milking system evaluation, and management of livestock other than dairy cattle. Elective modules allow the individual to focus more on a specific enterprise area of the farm, or diversify into new areas.
Enrollment Options
DPM Certificate Program
Practitioners are encouraged to enroll in at least 10 modules (7 core + 3 specialization modules) in order to obtain a certificate. A discounted rate is available for individuals selecting this option, and they will have enrollment preference. A veterinary practice may also enroll in 10 or more modules at the discounted rate, so that different members of the practice can attend different modules.
Individual Modules
Practitioners who do not want to commit to at least 10 modules may choose as many individual core or elective modules as they desire, space permitting.
DPM Alumni
Alumni of previous DPM Courses at Penn State are invited to participate in any core or elective modules at a reduced cost.
CE credits
Continuing education credits will be given for each module and will range between 15-20 hours per module.
Registration is now open.

The next module of the current Dairy Production Medicine Certificate Program hosted by Penn State Veterinary Extension will be held in State College, Pennsylvania from Thursday July 28 through Saturday July 30. The program will start at 8:00 am on Thursday and conclude at 12 noon on Saturday. Any interested veterinarians are welcome to register if seats are available.
Schedule for the Dairy Production Medicine Certificate Program VII.
Practitioners are encouraged to enroll in at least 10 modules in order to obtain a certificate. Certificate program participants will have enrollment preference. Individuals who do not want to commit to at least 10 modules may choose as many individual modules as they desire, space permitting. DPM Alumni will receive the discounted rate.
The Dairy Production Medicine Certificate Program was established as an answer to two surveys of food animal veterinarians that were conducted 1988 and 1989.

Birds are unreliable, anyway.
Unless you have a flock of trained ravens that carry all your gear in their beaks, you need a light, rugged, and versatile pack like the Lowe Alpine Cerro Torre 65:85 Backpack if you're going to have any sort of success on your next long-range backpacking and trekking mission. And, since you don't have a gaggle of gear-toting birds, you should know that the Cerro Torre uses Lowe's adjustable Axiom+ Back System to fit users of different sizes, along with a rotating hip belt and sprung steel frame to carry loads of up to 70 pounds. It sports both top and bottom access, along with a zip-out compartment divider, to help you stay organized, and even has a removable hydration pack for short adventures away from basecamp.
Since you never know what you'll run into, Lowe made sure the Cerro Torre's ready for pretty much everything. Made of super-tough TriShield Grid 420D nylon, it can bust through thickets and scrape over rocks with no ill effects, and comes with a rain cover to help you through the inevitable showers and downpours. It's also fully featured for easy use when you're on the move, with stretchy side pockets for water, snacks, maps, and layers, stowable ice axe and trekking pole loops, multiple lash points, and compression straps to lock down your load. It even has a haul loop, so your partner can give you a hand when you're trying to hoist what feels like your own body weight onto your back. Your raven can probably even use it as a perch if he wants to.
- Adjustable, anatomically shaped Axiom+ Back System (17-22in back length)
- Rotating hip belt and Rebound lumbar pad
- Lightweight sprung steel frame
- Two main compartments with zip-out divider and top/bottom access

Soo stoked!!
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I have wanted a lowe alpine pack for a while now and the cerro terra is soo dope!! I couldn't ask for anything more except for it to come fully packed with new clothes and camping/hiking gear. I've used it once on a road trip and I'm going to use it again on a 3 week trek around thailand. Wouldn't want to make this trip with anynother pack. Wish me luck....

With just three days left before Camden schools Superintendent Bessie LeFra Young steps down, the school board worked into the night Tuesday to find an interim replacement for her after its initial pick was said to have withdrawn at the last minute.
Peter E. Carter, a 30-year administration veteran of New Jersey public schools, was the board's preliminary pick after it interviewed him and another candidate Monday.
The board was to vote on Carter's appointment Tuesday evening, but he unexpectedly withdrew, sources familiar with the matter said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
The board then began to look to Deputy Superintendent Reuben Mills to become interim superintendent, according to one source familiar with the discussions. However, a decision was not made by late Tuesday.

But it took him 49 years to cross this one off the ol' list.
With one out in the fifth inning Saturday, Minnesota's Denard Span popped up a 3-1 pitch, forcing Alexi Casilla, who led off with a double, to retreat back to second base.
The infield fly traveled towards second base and it appeared Casilla, who turned his back towards the play and ducked his head, had made every effort to avoid interfering with shortstop Jhonny Peralta.
But he couldn't avoid a backpedaling Peralta, who crashed into Casilla at second base -- resulting in both players falling down and a dropped pop-up.
"I've never see that play happen in the history of my 49 years in professional baseball," Leyland said. "Never. Ever. Ever."
So? What happened? Is everyone safe? Not quite. Second-base umpire Brian O'Nora ruled Casilla had interfered with Peralta and called him out.
"I've never seen that before," Peralta told the Associated Press. "What was (Casilla) supposed to do?"
Apparently, it was a first for Tigers catcher Alex Avila, too.
"I've never seen it in the middle of the field like that at second base," he said. "I've seen it down the first-base line plenty of times, but never at second."
There's a clause in the rulebook that states a runner can be declared out if he "hinders a fielder attempting to make a play on a batted ball."
But, there's more.
According to MLB's official rulebook, the umpire could've declared both the runner (Casilla) and batter (Span) out if he thought the "hindrance" was intentional with less than two outs.
Leyland talked to O'Nora on Sunday for clarification on the ruling.
"That's why enjoy it," he said. "You see something that you've never seen before. And, I've never seen that in the history of my career."

Variations is the Best!!!I purchased the Chanel Eye Shadow Quad in Variations years ago and I still own it today. It is a whopping $55 but definitely worth the money. — 8 years, 10 months agoJavelleV | 5 reviews
love itI use this in Sand Dunes pretty much every single day. Every color is usable and work so well together. The shimmer isn't "sparkly" -- they just glow and flatter your eyes. I love the darkest color as an eyeliner. Get complements all the time. Highly recommended. Sometimes wish the pigment was a bit more intense (think mac eyeshadow), but the thing is, this product builds really well and looks so natural -- I think it is designed that way. — 8 years, 10 months agokatcha2 | 11 reviews

Last Updated: 23rd January 2014 08:29 AM
India has agreed to phase out, within a given time-frame, illegal and destructive methods of fishing like bottom trawling, in the waters between India and Sri Lanka. This will be done while systematically addressing the affected fishermen's livelihood problems, in active association with Sri Lanka. This was among several decisions taken at a joint meeting of high-level officials of the two countries, a day after the fisheries ministers of India and Sri Lanka — Sharad Pawar and Rajitha Senaratne — met in New Delhi on January 15.
Speaking to media representatives here on Wednesday, Senaratne said that the six-member high-powered panel, comprising three top officials from each country, decided to work out ways of ensuring the livelihood of fishermen of the two countries through sustainable fishing.

They're made by Huglu in Turkey and branded with the CZ name. They have a mediocre reputation for quality but CZ-USA is pretty good at standing behind their guns and fixing anything that breaks. I wouldn't buy one for a lot of clay shooting, but they're OK for hunting.

I have a 20 ga O/U and a 12ga Coach gun
They are beautifully made and sturdy. I don't know exactly where or why the internet rumor trashing them started. That's why I don't pay much attention.
November 20, 2007, 11:04 AM
I concur with the above poster. I LOVE CZ rifles and pistols, but their shotguns are not made in the Czech Republic and are just a mediocre Turkish shotgun with their logo on it. If you are a hunter that's going to put a box or two through your gun a year, then they'd probably be just right for you, but if you shoot a lot of targets as I do, then I'd pass them up in favor of an SKB or a used Browning Citori.
November 20, 2007, 02:27 PM
You guys need to quit writing off turkish guns so quickly. I know there are some that are not that high quality but there are some dang nice ones. I have a Yildiz O/U from turkey that has had over a thousand rounds put through it without one single problem. Is it the equivalent of a rizzini? No but its a dang good gun from turkey. Same thing with the CZ. Its not the equivalent of a nice english gun but comeon. it will serve a purpose for more people than the hunter who only puts a couple of boxes of shells through it a year. Its a dang good gun and would serve you well in the field, or on the skeet range.
November 20, 2007, 04:08 PM
The Yildiz is at least marketed for what it is. Too many gunmakers are importing guns with their name on them. Uninformed buyers purchase them thinking they are getting a gun made by the name maufacturer. On another forum a guy asked about the H&R pump for $150 stating it is made in the USA when in fact it is made in China. The Turks I am sure could make very good guns but the market is looking for cheap and that is the price point they make the guns to. As long as shooters keep buying the cheap stuff they will continue to make it.

The RedHead O/U has an MSRP of $921, so a street price of what, around $750-800? It's not up there with the Red Labels, etc, but it's not THAT cheap.
Also, not to thread-jack, but what about the new BRNO shotguns, made in, well, Brno?
November 20, 2007, 08:21 PM
I have had a CZ Ringneck in 28 for about a year. It had to go back to CZ twice, as it kept doubling for me on the skeet range.
They fixed it, and I have since run at least 500 rounds through it on a skeet range. Over-all I am really pleased with mine, and the quality is considerably better than I expected considering the new price was considerably less than any other double I considered.
November 20, 2007, 10:52 PM
Thanks for all the info, after reading a lot of threads on several sights I think I would be better off if I looked around to find a good deal on a Browning or Beretta. On the CZs some people think they are ok and some people hate them but know body seems to really like them a lot, but everybody likes Browning and Beretta.

Guys, I have read the original message and replies with great interest, not least because my company, T R Imports Inc, is a major dealer of Huglu shotguns. Most people who know anything about Huglu shotguns have learned about them through CZ's marketing efforts. In 2005, when CZ decided to add shotguns to their long-established line of handguns and rifles, they chose Huglu from among all the manufacturers available. That fact itself is significant. Huglu is Turkey's oldest and largest gun maker. I want to be careful here, because forums such as this should be for sharing information and not promoting products, which is why I think it is important to disclose that my company sells these guns. Nonetheless, I have information that I believe will be useful. Like all manufacturers, Huglu makes guns in a wide price range. We stock guns from around $400 to over $3,000. Huglu warrants their exported guns for two years, and our experience with them has been so good that we extend that warranty to five years. Our return rate is slightly over 1%, with about half of those for doubling, a problem that is a fact of life in all double guns with mechanical selector block, and a problem that is easily corrected. Customer response to these guns has been excellent, and you may find it of interest that we supply rental guns to the Dallas Gun Club, voted the best all-around gun club in 2006.

Here's my 28 gauge Bobwhite; for what it's worth, it seems there are more problems with the O/U's than the SXS's, and more problems with the single trigger models than the double trigger guns.
For a hair under $700.00, I've been pleased with mine. The only change I would make is that I wish it had fixed chokes instead of screw in chokes.
November 21, 2007, 09:57 PM
"The only change I would make is that I wish it had fixed chokes instead of screw in chokes."
That "problem" is easy to fix. Just remove the choke tubes and de-grease the choke tubes and the choke threads in the barrels. Then wet (with water) the choke tubes you would like fixed in the gun. Insert these choke tubes in the gun. In about a month, VOILA..... you will have a fixed choke gun. I wish that all problems were this easy to solve. :D
