Mariotti Show: Wednesday, October 9th
Missed part of the show? Here?s a rewind of the program on October 9, 2013.
The Mariotti Show streams live M-F noon to 3 ET.
Hour One on The Jay Mariotti Show: October 9, 2013:
Jay wonders how Joe Maddon would fare with a franchise that had a high payroll and sold-out ballpark and thinks he has maxed out the Tampa Bay way of doing things. When you have to use nine pitchers in a futile attempt to survive a playoff series against a Boston powerhouse, Maddon risks being perceived as the crazy old dude in Florida instead of what he truly is -- one of baseball's best managers and coolest ambassadors. Would he leave the Rays if Anaheim called? Jay still wonders if the Tigers have awakened enough offensively to beat the A's in Oakland, even with Justin Verlander going in Game 5. Jay can't believe a fan wouldn't learn the Steve Bartman lesson in Chicago and still reach over the outfield railing for a ball in Detroit, even though it clearly was a home run and Oakland's Josh Reddick would have had to be Michael Jordan in his prime to leap high enough to catch the ball. Jay says the Cardinals are having problems scoring runs, but figures the combination of elimination-game experience and Adam Wainwright will be enough to advance against the Dodgers in the NLCS. Given the variables of momentum, rest and big-time players doing big-time things so far, Jay is assuming the Dodgers and Red Sox are headed to a big-ticket World Series that Fox will love.
Hour Two on The Jay Mariotti Show: October 9, 2013:
Numbed and educated by the controversial ``League of Denial'' documentary, Jay says the NFL should be ashamed for covering up what it knew about the link between head injuries and football. Jay scolds Roger Goodell for not participating in the documentary -- at least present the league's side of things, you know? -- and scolds ESPN for bending to NFL pressure and disassociating itself from the outstanding breakthrough work of two reporters it employs. Jay grows nervous when he hears about a fan stalking Houston quarterback Matt Schaub and screaming obscenities outside his house; nothing is scarier than a spurned sports fan, recalling the Wesley Snipes-Robert DeNiro movie several years ago. It's hypocritical for Roger Goodell to want expanded playoffs amid a concussion crisis, Jay says. Jay resets the college football picture and says the Clemson-Florida State winner still will need lots of help to reach the BCS title game, as would Urban Meyer and Ohio State. Clearly, Alabama and Oregon have direct beelines to Pasadena.
Hour Three on The Jay Mariotti Show: October 9, 2013:
Forget a place like New York -- not Joe Maddon's kind of place if Joe Girardi leaves. Anaheim might be the only lure, and even if the Angels sit tight with Jerry Dipoto as GM and Mike Scioscia as manager, that is a tenuous relationship, and don't be surprised if Scioscia eventually moves upstairs and asks Maddon to rejoin him as manager. Jay is impressed at how the Cardinals groom young pitchers and notices how they and other teams -- Oakland with Sonny Gray, Pittsburgh with Gerrit Cole -- don't hesitate using rookies in big playoff moments. Jay interviews NBC Sports Radio's Amani Toomer, who says he was disturbed the NFL covered up information he would have liked to know as a player, but also says it's rash to say you'd never let your son play football. Jay is bothered by an excellent USA Today story that points out why NCAA president Mark Emmert, whose organization already is weakened by major mistakes and departures in its enforcement ranks, might have no interest in investigating his pal, Nick Saban, after reports that Alabama players took gifts and benefits -- something that could lead to a vacating of a national championship if the NCAA was truly interested. Jay says Jadeveon Clowney has taken the year off and doesn't blame him for trying to preserve his NFL millions; he just should have alerted Steve Spurrier to the fact. Jay applauds Redskins owner Daniel Snyder for at least addressing the Native American issue with sensitivity today instead of stonewalling it as he did earlier this year. That's what happens when the POTUS says he'd change the name if he owned the team.

The Chicago Cubs finished the 2010 season in need of a future and also in need of a manager. During the course of the long and usually futile history of the franchise, this was not a rare exacta, but it was one that general manager Jim Hendry had to address.
Lou Piniella, having assessed the bleak prospects, quit as manager in late August and the Cubs shuffled third-base coach Mike Quade into the manager's office on an interim basis. There was little expectation Quade would keep the job, but, again, the team and its fans don't usually lead the league in expectations.

Ten years after the Dixie Chicks performed in South Carolina amid a firestorm of controversy, it appears singer Natalie Maines isn't quite ready to "make nice" with the state.
Maines, now a solo act, performed at the Southern Ground Music and Food Festival Saturday where, according to some attendees, she received some boos.
"Time has stood still," Maines tweeted early Sunday morning, after noting that the state once tried to pass a resolution forcing her to put on free concerts in light of comments she made about former President George W. Bush.
At a 2003 Dixie Chicks concert in London, Maines told a London audience, "Just so you know, we're ashamed the president of the United States is from Texas."
At a time when the country was divided over whether to invade Iraq, the comments ignited a furor as radio stations boycotted the group's songs, "fans" staged rallies to destroy their CDs and the band members received death threats.
South Carolina became center stage for the anger as Greenville was site of the group's first concert on American soil since she made the comments. Protesters stood outside of the arena for days and while many predicted they'd get booed off the stage, the band overwhelmingly received cheers from the 15,000 fans.
Maines, though, has apparently not gotten over the events.
She tweeted, "I revisited S.Carolina tonight. 2003 they had a bill on the floor demanding the DCX officially apologize and play free concerts. #(expletive)that"
Her comments were met on social media by some detractors who basically told her if she didn't like the state she could leave it, while many supporters expressed surprise and disappointment it was still an issue for some people more than a decade later.
Maines later tweeted to one detractor: "I'm going to continue liking S.C in spite of it's humidity and the knowledge that you live there. Enjoy your day;)"

Newfane man charged after rendezvous with teenApril 28,2013Online friendship
ends in charges
WARDSBORO A Newfane man was charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor after smoking marijuana with a 14-year-old girl he met on Facebook, according to Vermont State Police.

And I'm looking for a partner. Someone who'll play off my banter, who can call a "that's what she said" before I can react. Someone to take contra dancing one night, and to board game night the next. Someone who'll beat me at Dominion or Worms, and be my coop partner in Portal or Mario. Someone to cuddle up on the couch with and watch a movie or pro Starcraft match. Someone who'll help me finally put together a decent costume for ComicCon or PAX. And someone who'll likewise invite me to join her in her interests.
If some or all of that sounds nice to you, gimme a shout. If not, best of luck in your own search.
Video games. Y'know that "hard mode" option you always ignore? Yeah, that's how I roll. I live off the delicious victory earned by learning boss patterns and overcoming frustrating jumping puzzles. This has earned me funny looks on the bus, but y'know what? When you've just beaten the guy you've been fighting for a week, the boss who used to kill you in the first five seconds of the battle, you can't help but throw up the horns. It's mandatory.

Rally Foundation for Childhood Cancer Research (Rally), a national nonprofit organization, is proud to award a $20,000 Rally for Research Grant to the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) to support Dr. Jacqueline Kraveka and her research on Targeting Dihydroceramide Desaturase in Neuroblastoma. This grant is co-funded with Vs. Cancer Foundation, a nonprofit organization that funds lifesaving childhood cancer efforts
Funds from this grant will be used to support neuroblastoma research. Neuroblastoma is one of the deadliest childhood cancers. Our research is focused on studying the biology of neuroblastoma and on developing novel treatments, Dr. Kraveka said. In particular, funds from this grant will be used to develop and test inhibitors to the dihydroceramide desaturase enzyme in neuroblastoma. It is our hope that this research will lead to new treatments for children with neuroblastoma. Support from the Rally Foundation Childhood Cancer Research and Vs. Cancer Foundation is critically important to support this research, which will benefit children with neuroblastoma.
Rally and its medical advisory board, consisting of leading childhood cancer researchers from across the nation, award grants through a competitive peer review process assuring that the best research is funded. All grants are made in honor or memory of a Rally Kid, a child who has fought or is currently fighting cancer.
We are absolutely thrilled to support Dr. Kravekas cutting-edge pediatric cancer research, said Dean Crowe, founder and CEO of Rally. It is important to fund promising scientists like Jackie as we work toward closing the childhood cancer research funding gap so that no parent ever has to hear that there are no more treatment options for their child.
This grant is part of the $1.2 million Rally will be awarding to 34 hospitals across the country this year. Since its founding in 2005, Rally has distributed more than $5.25 million to more than 75 childhood cancer research projects nationwide, including basic science, fellowships and clinical trials.

Evidence suggest that suppressed bud burst and thus epicormic shoot emergence (sprouting) are controlled by water–carbohydrate supplies to entire trees and buds. Morisset et al. study stand water status and carbohydrate distribution in dominant trees of sessile oak, Quercus petraea, and find that sprouting is more intense in parts of the stand free from accompanying vegetation and on upper trunk segments. The more epicormics that a trunk segment bears, the more chances it had to bear sprouts, and the results thus infer water–carbohydrate control and show direct evidence of constraints by epicormic ontogeny.

BRO is a great organization that contributes to the well-being of underserved residents in the City of St. Louis and surrounding communities. Their work all year long makes it possible for families to enjoy a wonderful CHristmas, older adults to have support in their difficult years, and provides for all of the community a unique ministry. How do I know? I watch them serve over 1500 families out of the basement of the office building where I am currently the Executive Officer.

MORGANTOWN - The West Virginia men's basketball season was just three games old when Kevin Jones hung an exclamation point on his amazing rebounding ability.
He hiked his total of offense rebounds to 328 for a new school record in the 97-62 rout of Alcorn State at the Coliseum. The previous high mark was 320 as set by Chris Brooks (1988-91). Jones now sits at 338 rebounds.
So Jones, a 6-foot-8, 260-pound senior forward from Mt. Vernon, N.Y., has nearly the entire season to build on this remarkable record.
Article Photos
He also leads the team in scoring, total rebounds (including the defensive boards) and other play phases.
Coach Bob Huggins will tell you that K. J. is a great leader and a wonderful young man.
Ten of his 13 boards against Alcorn State were on offense and helped him score a career-high 29 points - 20 in the first half.
Jones is considered by Huggins as one of the top rebounders and scorers in his 30 years as an NCAA Division I head coach.
Huggins said, "He works hard every day in practice and he helps the younger players. He talks and they listen. You can tell that when you see him at practice.
"K.J. also is a great leader, especially for the younger players and he has become a lot more vocal. They all respect him a great deal.
"He's special and he is what he is."
Huggins noted that all really good rebounders have great hands. He has had some who weren't great jumpers, but they had great hands and came down with the ball.
After that record-breaking performance, Jones jokingly said he wanted to thank his teammates for "missing all those shots" which he rebounded. All of them respect him, though.
Junior Deniz Kilicli said, "K.J. always has been a great rebounder. When he was a freshman, he was a great rebounder. You known he has that already."
Huggins said, "(K.J.) theoretically could be in the Top 10 all-time scorers and Top 10 all-time rebounders.
"He has had a Hall of Fame career. You can't imagine how good a guy he is and how good he is to deal with every day."
Jones, an all-BIG EAST first-team selection twice, has hit double digits in scoring 64 times. He also has 13 double-doubles in his career.

I wanted to talk about something that something that is real important to me. This week the Cannes Film Festival marked the 20th anniversary of Platoon, which is my favorite movie of all time. Platoon was showed in a special screening at the festival, and they announced a special 20th anniversary collector's edition DVD coming May 30. All the main characters from the movie were there, as you can see in the picture. (Starting from the left: Tom Berenger, Oliver Stone, Charlie Sheen, and Willem Dafoe) If your interested you can read more here.
This is great stuff to my father and I because to me, it's hands down my all time favorite movie, and to my father, it's based on the same company (25th infantry) that he was in when he fought in Vietnam.
If you haven't seen platoon yet then what the hell are you waiting for? Go buy it, borrow it, rent it, or download it, whatever, just make sure you see it!
You see that guy on the left with all the scars on his face? That is my favorite character of all time in any movie. His name is Ssgt. Barnes, and he isn't very nice. He is the toughest soldier in the platoon, and he has the most experience on the battlefield. Believe me when I say this, he is the baddesst motherfucker on the planet!
Anyway, I can't wait for this movie to drop. Come May 30, you better believe I'm getting my hands on the 20th anniversary collector's edition. The current Platoon DVD that is out now doesn't have much special features, just audio commentary, trailer spots, and a 'Tour of the Inferno' documentary. The new 2-disc DVD that is coming out includes a ton of stuff such as: deleted scenes with commentary by Oliver Stone, Creating the 'Nam' documentary, 'Raw Wounds: The Legacy of Platoon' documentary, and much, much more. You can check it out more here. I remember reading a script of the movie online and reading a bunch of conversations and scenes that never made the final cut. Finally, I get to see those mysteriously cut scenes that I have wondered so much about. Thank You Oliver Stone!
I just wanted to share this moment with you, this movie means a lot to me and I'm sure it means even more to my father, thanks for reading.
Oh yeah, if you really like this movie, then join the Platoon Fan Club I made a while back. It's kind of dead right now so, yeah. Since you already know my favorite movie, what's yours?

Release of Liability in an Automobile Accident SettlementPosted on July 8th, 2015
A release of liability, or more generally known as a "release," is one of the most important documents involved when settling a car accident claim with an insurance company. Many though are quite unfamiliar with this document, and resultantly, poor settlements get made. The following takes a closer look at what a release actually is and what it means for your settlement. Two quick things a reader should learn are: (1) never rush into signing a release; and, (2) contact Phillips Law Firm if you have any questions before you sign a release. What is a Release of Liability? A… [Read More]

Was anyone else raised Reconstructionist? My family belonged to a Conservative synagogue until I was 14 and then we switched to Reconstructionist. I'm just wondering.
simplify before you multiply
I never went to Hebrew school, but our current temple was Recon until they voted to be unaffiliated about 2 years ago.
An unaffiliated temple? That sounds interesting! Are the services in mostly Hebrew or English?
simplify before you multiply
i grew up orthodox and DH grew up reform...we've actually been looking at reconstructionist shuls in our area as they seem to be the best balance for both our backgrounds....
I really enjoyed it. The one we belonged to was very liberal and the services were pretty much the same as in the Conservative temple. However, when referring to G-d, it was never "he" it was always just "G-d" which I liked a lot.
If you are in the Philly or NJ area, I can recommend a few.
simplify before you multiply
thanks for the offer but we're in the chicago suburbs...so far the one we've been too seemed ok...
i was okay with the services - i'm still used to hebrew and fast lol - and the rabbi seemed really nice when we spoke with him a little during the kiddush...
and they have alot of social action stuff which is important to DH
in general it seemed like a good place to raise ur kid to identify with being jewish but not live in a bubble if that makes sense...
the other reconstructionist one that we haven't been to yet is reconstructionist/conservative...not sure what that means but i guess we'll find out eventually!
The social action aspect is what drew my parents to change to that temple as well.
Best of luck finding a place where you all feel comfortable!
simplify before you multiply
They have a mix of Hebrew and English... a lot of the congregation is made up of interfaith families and they are very good about providing transliteration.
There's actually another unaffiliated temple that's more conservative within 10 miles of us and it's not a heavily jewish area.
Sounds like there's a lot of us here from Chicago?
We're in the Western 'burbs- Congregation Beth Shalom in Naperville.
Like I said, not too many Jews out in our area! ; )

Mathematical Neuroscience is a book for mathematical biologists seeking to discover the complexities of brain dynamics in an integrative way. It is the first research monograph devoted exclusively to the theory and methods of nonlinear analysis of infinite systems based on functional analysis techniques arising in modern mathematics.
Neural models that describe the spatio-temporal evolution of coarse-grained variables—such as synaptic or firing rate activity in populations of neurons —and often take the form of integro-differential equations would not normally reflect an integrative approach. This book examines the solvability of infinite systems of reaction diffusion type equations in partially ordered abstract spaces. It considers various methods and techniques of nonlinear analysis, including comparison theorems, monotone iterative techniques, a truncation method, and topological fixed point methods. Infinite systems of such equations play a crucial role in the integrative aspects of neuroscience modeling.

Python is pretty good, but you'd be amazed at how well Haskell does with Project Euler.
Python is great for this kind of thing. I just pull up the shell and hack a quick function together. Great for GCD, LCM, co-primality, etc. Quicker than C++ to compile and run.
I just rewrite the function every session I want to use it, which ends up with me learning the definitions of these things very thoroughly (and degrading my mental arithmetic).
There are tons of problems that it just chews through with no thought. Which is exactly what you'd expect from a purely functional language, really

During its meeting Tuesday night, the Amarillo College Board of Regents granted a tax abatement to MWI Veterinary Supply, the parent company of Micro Beef Technologies.
More than $100,000 in taxes will be abated over six years through the agreement with AC.
In 2010, the city of Amarillo, AC and Panhandle Groundwater Conservation District approved 10-year tax abatements with Zarges, and Potter County approved a five-year abatement.
After Zarges left CenterPort Business Park, which is managed by Amarillo Economic Development Corp., AEDC and the company entered into an agreement to reassign its abatement agreements to another company, and in stepped Micro Beef.
Representatives from Micro Beef and AEDC pegged the abatement as a job retention strategy.
Micro Beef, a cattle feed additive distributor founded in Amarillo in 1971, has about 120 employees with an annual payroll of $6.7 million, said Mark Shaw, president of the company.
"It's not necessary for our headquarters to necessarily be in Amarillo, ... but we feel, as a company, it's important to have a presence here, because this is a major hub for animal production, particularly in the concentration we have of feedlots," Shaw said.
Amarillo City Council voted earlier this month to approve the reassignment of tax abatement and incentives, including a $1.6 million loan to upgrade the building at CenterPoint.
Under its agreement with AEDC, Micro Beef will contribute $2 million toward capital improvements, Shaw said.
AC will tax improvements to the facility, amounting to about $3,000 a year, said Brian Jennings, AEDC's vice president of business development.
Micro Beef will stay rent-free in the Commerce Building, which AEDC bought this year to convert into a facility for West Texas A&M University, until renovations at CenterPort are complete.
The board approved the abatement unanimously, but Regent Michele Fortunato questioned its effects.
"I do think there's a benefit," she said.
"I just don't want to take these for granted and approve them every time without thinking about how this is going to help us."
Last month, the board approved a 10-year tax abatement with Coca-Cola, and that company has reached similar deals with the city of Amarillo, Potter County and Panhandle Groundwater Conservation District.
"There has been an influx of these requests recently, but they don't really come along that often," said Jennings.
"Obviously, when we're entertaining a new client, they either get it here or they go somewhere where they're going to get it."

Review: Spiritualized, 'Sweet Heart, Sweet Light'
Can Jason Pierce find new converts or is he preaching to and with the choir?
Spiritualized's head pastor Jason Pierce, after 20 years of album-making, has forced himself into re-working well-trod scripture and reiterated motifs. Because it's not broken, he doesn't fix it. It's hard for these new tunes on "Sweet Heart, Sweet Light" to not sound like something that's been made before.
The group boasts the same confluence of influences from the '60s and '70s into a pop pickled in psychedelia. Sonically skronky songs like "Headin' for the Top Now" and Dr. John co-penned "I Am What I Am" drone into musical wallpaper, sitting instrumentally on top of a single note or oscillating between two as J Spaceman (Pierce's other name) slides off-key up and down his easy melodies, a pack of wild cheerleaders leading the way. On single "Hey Jane" and "Get What You Deserve," he again gives way humping Lou Reed's grave even before the Velvets' main man is even dead (something to which Mr. Reed may not be all that averse) with climactic bursts of blissed-out white noise.
And I don't mean the sexual metaphor purely provocatively: violence and pleasure, death and life and borrowing and taking are among Pierce's favorite lyrical themes, with a couple cameos from recurring character Jesus, on whom Pierce places some of his most despairing and simple lyrics. These sometimes border on false profundity, like on woozy "Freedom" and sing-song ballad "Too Late" (which is a perfect partner with "Baby I'm Just a Fool" from 2008's "Songs in A&E").
All these are good for collectors to hear, but it's the clincher – album closer "So Long You Pretty Thing" – that could make new converts. The track's epic proportion still feels familiar, with Spaceman's inviting vocals paired with his instrumental kindred in a plonky-plonk banjo, the slow-burn swelling into a choir of "help me Lords" and schemes that put rhyming bedfellows radio/souls/and rock 'n' roll together.
This current Spiritualized devolution of genre is still blurry, but bright, tied together with cacophony and clarity. Pierce's ability to write lasting songs is still skillful and strong, and will doubtless keep his patrons coming back.

Protest Today's St. Patrick's Day Parade
Today is the day when Irish people wear green, march with pride, and kick openly gay people to the curb.
It's the disgracefully exclusive St. Patrick's Day Parade, where the green vomit all over the streets never has a hint of lavender in it because that would somehow be too crass.
And it's time to protest, especially since the men in blue have no problem showing up to support the green!
Go from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. to Fifth Avenue between 56th and 57th streets and let them know you think the parade is a bigoted bunch of blarney.
Upcoming Events
As a release just told me:
"The parade is touted by organizers as an explicitly 'anti-gay, Catholic' event and has been defined in court as a 'private, religious procession' in order to preserve the right to exclude LGBT marchers.
"Protesters, organized by the group Irish Queers, contend that NYPD participation in such a parade is a violation of New York City's human rights code.
" 'Year after year, we watch thousands of uniformed NYPD participate in this anti-gay march. It reinforces everything LGBT people already fear about police: We're not safe with them, they haven't rejected discrimination, and they won't object when someone else discriminates,' said J.F. Mulligan, who plans to protest with Irish Queers.
"In advance of the parade, a group of eleven LGBT community organizations delivered a letter to NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly calling for the full withdrawal of uniformed officers from the anti-gay march. Commissioner Kelly failed to respond to a similar request made last September."
We're waiting, Ray.

Total Bids5
Project Description
The online shop is a motorycle, scooter and ATV parts store and products must be linked to a specific vehicle. A product may fit many vehicles.
The vehicle database is in place, what needs to be done is the administration part where the shop admin may add products and link them to one or more vehicles. As sometimes a product can be linked to more than a hundred vehicles, an ajax solution is prefered for the product adding procedure.
In frontend, in the product description, the compatible vehicles list must be generated.
Frontend, the products will have regular description and 3 tabs:
1. compatibility (generated as above)
2. similar products (alredy implemented by xtcommerce aka crosseling)
3. spare parts for the selected product (must be implemented - for example a piston kit may have spare part the rings)
When a visitor selects the vehicle, products are filtered and only categories with products linked to that vehicle will be shown. Couple general categories will be shown no matter what the user selects.
Exampe @ [url removed, login to view]
After the user selects the vehicle, the selection menu will be changed from "Select vehicle..." to "Selected vehicle" and the details of the selected vehicle, the user may discard the selection @ any time.
The category menu depth in the left must be modified, the menu should look similar to www.tik.ro.

since you put the bait out. I'll bite. I say the 270 is overrated. Now I think the 270 is a very good round. I just think that it has been over hyped into something that it is not over the years. There are several cartridges out there that are better than it in my opinion. for example the 30-06, 280 rem, 264 win mag. Yet, the die hard 270 enthusiast will argue until they are blue in the face about how "flat shooting" the 270 is, and how it can take anything in the lower 48 etc. I just think that it is overrated.

See Dutch Oven and Queef. Similar to the Dutch oven however it can only be done by a woman. The woman queefs under the covers and pulls them over her bedmate's head to keep them trapped in the stink.

You go to a house party but it's filled with women who just went to a baby shower together, you are one of a handful of men so it's a "clambake".

War Words Part Deux
Last month, we featured various military terms that were likely to be on the news. Of course, predictions are not perfect. There are host of jargon and slang terms that have cropped up in the reporting on the war in Iraq. Here are some that we missed last month. Not all of these are relevant to or used in the current conflict. Some are historical, evoked by recent events.
American Dialect: The Northern Cities Shift and the Great Lakes Region
The dialect of the inland north, or the Great Lakes region, has the distinction of being "normal" American speech. As such, it is often difficult to categorize and people from the region are often not recognized as having a distinct dialect at all. Of course they do have one; all people speak with a distinct dialect. It is just that in this case there is not much to distinguish it from what is considered "standard" American speech. But there is one very distinctive feature of the accent of the region. It is one of the more distinctive pronunciation patterns in American speech. It is known as the:
The Northern Cities Shift
The shift is evident is a swath of territory stretching from the Hudson River valley in New York, across northern Ohio and Indiana, to Chicago and Detroit, encompassing the rust-belt cities of the northern Midwest. The shift is a distinctive pronunciation of short vowel sounds that was first identified by linguist William Labov and colleagues from the University of Pennsylvania in 1973. Now, not everyone in the region displays the shift; many opt for "normal" American pronunciation. Some people only display the shift with specific vowels, opting for the standard pronunciation for the others. But if one spends any significant time in the region, one can begin to identify the shift.
Book Review: Oxford Dictionary of Word Histories
It seems lately that we have been reviewing books that are not in and of themselves bad or especially flawed, but whose utility is limited. The market for books on words and language is a crowded one, yet publishers seem intent on pumping out books that do not fit a particular niche or offer anything new or different.
This month we review yet another. The Oxford Dictionary of Word Histories, edited by Glynnis Chantrell, is a book that has no obvious flaws. The scholarship is uniformly excellent, relying on the extensive lexicographic files of Oxford Press. There are over 12,000 entries, which give the book considerable scope. Yet, in reading it one continually wonders if anyone would actually ever find this book useful.
Word of the Month: Space
On 1 February, the space shuttle Columbia and her crew of seven were lost during their return to earth. In the weeks since, news reports have treated the public with detailed insights into NASA and the US space program and exposed millions to jargon terms used by astronauts and aeronautical engineers. So to honor the seven who lost their lives in the exploration of the heavens, our word of the month is:
Space, n., the expanse of the universe beyond the earth's atmosphere. This sense was first used in 1667 by Milton in Paradise Lost. From the Old French espace.
Book Reviews: Dog Days and Dandelions & Coined By God
This month we take a look at two new trade etymology books, Dog Days and Dandelions by Martha Barnette and Coined by God by Stanley Malless and Jeffrey McQuain. Both are well-written, well-researched works that look at the origins of words connected with a specific topic. But both books suffer from a common defect of etymology books, organization by alphabetical order, a defect that makes what could have been interesting topics that shed light into how English creates and adopts words and turns them into volumes of etymological trivia. Both books are fine works for what they are, but one is a bit disappointed when one considers what they could have been.
On the surface, one might think that alphabetical order would be a natural arrangement for books on etymology. After all, that is how dictionaries are organized and it makes finding individual words quick and easy. But while alphabetical order is appropriate for comprehensive reference tomes like dictionaries, it is not the best format for other works. Alphabetical order masks common themes and patterns of etymological change. Other formats sacrifice the ease of looking up a particular word or phrase, but this is easily addressed with an index.

Whippets are built to RUN--- what quality of life can a dog have if he cannot possibly do what he was first created to do? that's the problem I have with this whole issue.
I once read that "running for dogs is what dancing is for humans--- it is what puts them in touch with the universe"
People SEE something they LIKE It or THINK they are cool, they get these animals with no further though of what they are doing--- they just DO NOT THINK OF THE ANIMAL, they only think about what THEY WANT--- its MORALLY irresponsible to KNOWINGLY breed a defect that will prohibit a dog or ANY LIVING THING to LIVE a GOOD long quality life---
I just cannot understand the mentality behind this, you ( "you" as a figure of speech) want a bully type dog? get a dog that HAS the conformational and fiscal capabilities to carry that bully type in a HEALTHY manner--- there are PLENTY healthy type bully type dogs IN ALL SIZES anything from 20lbs to 150lbs.
By the way large breeds do NOT have to be treated any different then you treat a whippet or smaller dog, when it comes to running or playing, LARGE dogs that are healthy can do ANYTHING a small dog like a whippet can do successfully--- NOT AS FAST for sure, BUT equally as good---- I BET MONEY THEY CAN--- I have seen them as well. The boy you see on the pictures I posted earlier is about 120- to 130 lbs of season--- when he is at hunting weight he is about 100lbs or so--- and he is a feather in the woods and fast as lightning, he is also a power house, he can leap 5 feet up from a stand still--- he was breed to be this way.
I am a DOG ENTHUSIAST, I breed, train and hunt dogs---- I study, research and spend hundreds of hours studding dogs because they are my passion---- its what I do day in day out---- I have 13 dogs at the time--- they all get extensive exercise, health screening for hips, heart, elbows and Cert on my larger dogs, they get healthy food and plenty enough to keep lean muscle mass--- they can hunt anything from 1hr to 10 or 11hrs and this is normally at a trot and sprints at times and FULL ON SPEED RUN if they have pray on site---- they get as much running and romping as they can possible get--- I give this example to prove that you should and can do with LARGE DOGS EVERYTHING you can and should do with smaller or medium size animals--- NO DIFFERENCE WHAT SO EVER.
Bully whippets are NOT healthy dogs--- I have seen their owners suffer a great deal both emotionally and in the wallet and end up having to finally put them down anyhow---- there is NO FIX for a genetic problem of this sort--- Supporting breeders who do breed them is IRRESPONSIBLE--- I am not saying that if a breeder gets one in a litter he is to put it down, BUT a breeder that PURPOSELY breeds a dog like this KNOWING it will suffer is IRRESPONSIBLE.
Reminds me of the poor kid in the play ground who had to sit and watch all the other kids play and enjoy them selves because he was unable to because of his asthma--- just so unfair and to do it on PURPOSE??? Thats just MORALLY WRONG.

In this article, I'll show you seven steps you can take to make social media marketing work for you.
As a startup or small business owner, you know there's a lot to accomplish with limited resources.
Traditional marketing can be a drain on your funds. Social media marketing, on the other hand, is pretty low-cost and gives you a direct line to current and prospective customers.

Social media marketing is about using social networks and tools to guide prospects through a series of steps–a funnel–to get them to take the actions you want (e.g., becoming a fan, sharing their email address or buying your products or services).
There are tons of social media tools, networks and options that include everything from Facebook and Twitter to landing pages and email marketing to SEO and ads. Each of these social marketing channels is one more way to guide your prospects through your sales funnel.
Do you spend hours on your social media outreach and have no idea if it's successful?
Are your clients constantly clamoring for social proof?
If you haven't already done so, you need to find a strategy to measure your social media return on investment (ROI).
In this article I'll share tools and tips to measure the ROI of your social media efforts.
ROI is proof that your marketing efforts are working. Clients and supervisors need to know if you're successful… and you do too!
This is important for social media companies, consultants and in-house staff.
The main challenge in measuring ROI is keeping up with changes in algorithms, implementing the new tools that hit the marketplace and proving to your clients that they're getting the most out of their investment in you.
Here are five steps for your ROI measurement strategy.
ROI can be measured in a variety of ways: through customer acquisition, lead generation, clicks, revenue, contest entries, etc. It all depends on your goals. Before you can track and measure your ROI, you need to determine your goals so you know which factors you're measuring and what success looks like.
Top 5 Metrics for Auditing Your Social Media Marketing ROI: Beyond revenue, participating in social media has many "beneficial business applications, such as facilitating customer service and boosting public relations."
Reach, traffic, leads, customers and conversion rate are the metrics Pamela Vaughan on HubSpot suggests you consider to determine social media marketing success.

Trigger Taurus revolver?

> Trigger Taurus revolver?
May 6, 2008, 05:30 PM
Have to make this quick. I just bought a Taurus 941 in .22 mag. Is there an way to improve that trigger. I don't want to use the word "sucks" but I could.

My sister got a M94 (22 lr) used with a better trigger than these have from the factory. Trouble is, it had 1 or 2 light strikes per cylinder. I cracked it open to find springs with splash of red paint--I assume this was the Wolfe spring kit available for this gun all over the internet.
I shimmed the lighter-weight mainspring until it was just short of solid at full cock (about 3/16-in) and all has been good since. I was in a hurry and used a drilled-out hex jamb nut of unknown size, which I am not proud of, but I'm quite sure it will work forever and no one will ever know.
I think I recall also flushing out a lot of gritty crud and re-lubing the innards as well. No wonder this one turned up in the "used" case.
After this treatment, I would say the trigger is ~85% as good as a S&W--still a bit of creep in SA.
If you go this route, remember 3 things:
1. Buy the correct screwdriver or do what I did and make one with a coarse file and a cheap bit.
2. Remove the side plate by holding the gun side-plate-up and striking the frame with the handle of a screwdriver in the downward direction. Isaac Newton will hold the side plate still for you while the gun moves down.
3. Don't disturb the innards. They are a puzzle you don't want to have to solve.
May 6, 2008, 07:49 PM
Well. I did open it and clean out the crud you mention. I also removed the mainspring and nipped off about 2 turns. Definite improvement, no light strikes yet. Still it feels awful crunchy in there and I've also had it do some kind of crazy lock up thing here and there if the cylinder is between chambers. Very weird. It's new, I'm going to shoot it a bit and see if it improves. I'm not impressed with the finish work though. There's still filings left on the face of the breech where they filed it off square. it ain't no $800 S&W that's for sure... :rolleyes:
May 6, 2008, 07:59 PM
Amen to that. I suspect a good bit of shooting followed by another flush will smooth things out quite a bit.
May 6, 2008, 09:51 PM
Cool, thanks for your help!
May 6, 2008, 11:38 PM
Any new Taurus revolver needs to have the side plate popped and flush the innards with a good shot of CLP and let drain dry.
New springs will also help.
May 7, 2008, 03:27 AM
This is an 8 shot revolver - the mechanics and leverage required is different than for the J frame S&W .22's in 6 shot so don't expect to get a totaly nice DA trigger pull out of this gun.
Clipping main spring is not a great idea - trigger return spring can be lightened a little to help - honing/polishig of the proper nature can also help, but just shoot the crap out of it for awhile and it will smooth up also.
May 7, 2008, 01:33 PM
Mostly ditto what mnrivrat said. Rather than clipping any of the stock springs it's a better idea to get one of the kits from Brownell's and do a little testing to find out which combo gives you the best reliability of ignition and trigger return with the most improvement in pull weight. It's cheap, and you're not going to render your revolver unservicable if you goof.
FWIW, I found that the trigger return spring was responsible for most of the excess in my M94. The difference between the stock and replacement hammer springs is only 2 lbs (stock=11#; Wolff=9#). The stock return spring is rated as 14# while the Wolff replacements are 9# and 6.5#.
I got 100% functional reliability and a huge improvement in DA pull using the stock mainspring and the 9# return. The kit was only $10.50.
I'd also agree with the suggestion to do a good deal of shooting before you start polishing on things. IMO it takes at least several hundred rounds to generate enough wear to identify where the parts might actually be rubbing against something else enough to make a real difference.
Again just MO, but if they don't include adjustments to timing or fitting issues most "action jobs" consist of adding what amounts to artificial wear to contact surfaces, with or without replacing or altering springs.
Good lubricants and a couple of thousand rds will usually smooth things up very nicely. It just takes a while.
May 7, 2008, 02:28 PM
Thank you all. Points well taken. I did nip the spring just a bit with the knowledge that I could end up buying another one. I'll look into the Brownell stuff after I shoot it for a while. Please forward any extra or unwanted .22 mag ammo to... :)
May 7, 2008, 03:08 PM
Corncob I did the same thing with my RG model 39 main spring ,do to light primer strikes.I't worked for a little while now 1 or 2 out of 6 fail to fire.I did not compress all the way just found a ss hex nut in the garage and used it.
May 8, 2008, 09:49 AM

I've considered doing this, but I've been deterred by the phrase "(Not recommended for 94/941)" on their web site.
May 8, 2008, 12:18 PM
The kit I bought was from Brownell's. Whether it was put together by Wolff or their own tech people, I don't know for sure. It's listed as "Wolff Taurus 73, 85 & 94 Shooters Pak". What I can tell you for sure is that it worked out very well in my M94.
It was essentially a drop-in job, but there was a good deal of experimenting necessary to determine which combo worked best in my revolver. As I said, that turned out to be using the factory mainspring and the 9# return. With those I get 100% reliable trigger return and as close to that in ignition reliabilty as one can reasonably expect with a RF revolver. FWIW, all but one of the vanishingly few FsTF I've experienced would not fire upon a second-strike nor when tried in another weapon, which leads me to conclude that they were entirely ammo-related.
With .22 RF ammo having arguably the widest distribution and the most extreme variation spreads in quality and consistency of manufacture in the world it's easy to understand why the "utility" models from most makers come with the spring rates engineered to try and ensure reliable function under the widest possible range of usage conditions.
Taurus sells a very large portion of its products domesticly (Brazil) and in other portions of the world in markets where extremely "hostile" environmental conditions, marginal ammo and negligable maintenance are the norm rather than the exception.
Their engineering on these models reflects that, IMO. The bias seems to be heavily towards "robustness" and durability, trying to ensure that the rifle, pistol or revolver they sell will have the best chance of performing its basic functions when called upon even if it's being fed very poor quality ammo and subjected to what we'd see as horrible neglect or downright abuse.
All I've done is basically reduced the amount of built-in compensation to suit my circumstances and tastes better.
If you still have some misgivings Bryan, give the tech line folks at Brownell's a call. They're knowledgable, experienced an extremely helpfull.
May 9, 2008, 11:18 AM
.22 mag revolvers are notorious for heavy DA triggers. The reason is that the .22 magnum cartridge operates at higher pressure than the .22LR. The cases are made heavier to stand up to the pressure. Because it is a rimfire, heavier case equals tougher primer. It takes a heavier mainspring to fire the magnum rimfire than the shorter cartridges.
