The kindnesses are innumerable
During the past six days, this community has seen the fury of Mother Nature and the kindness of our neighbors.
This dichotomy is striking. And it serves to remind us that in times of disaster, human kindness takes over. As one Tonganoxie woman put it 36 hours after Thursday's tornado swept into town: That's what neighbors do. They help each other.
This community was extremely lucky, for the most part, that we didn't suffer more. On Friday morning, as we began to move around, we knew we were lucky. At least no one had been killed, we said. We felt fortunate.
By late morning, as word of little Kaela Humburg's death spread throughout our town, we felt a little less fortunate. We felt as if the rug that had been pulled out from under us Thursday night again had been yanked away when Kaela was killed as relatives cleaned up outside a Tonganoxie house. We were shaken.
But as friends from across the region poured into Tonganoxie and began to help us, we were rejuvenated by their kindness. It was those acts by neighbors, those acts by strangers that began to restore us. It will be some time before Tonganoxie is whole again. But it will rebuild. And it will recover.
We owe a debt of gratitude to the many people who came to our aid. They hauled away our destruction. They hugged us as we mourned. They turned our lights back on. They've helped in so many, many ways.
And we thank them all of them.

Building an IRC Bot with Cinch
Bot Tech
Chat rooms aren't just for people. We'll show you how to access an IRC channel using an automated bot.
IRC, the Internet Relay Chat has existed for 20 years, and it is still a popular communication channel in open source projects and businesses. For almost as long, automated bots have listened on IRC channels and responded to user commands. The article shows how IRC bots can make themselves useful by helping you manage tickets and prepare documentation.
Spoiled for Choice
To develop an IRC bot today, you no longer need to learn Tcl to activate the bot ancestor Eggdrop [1]. Frameworks for bots are available in virtually any language (Table 1). Although I focus here on Cinch [2], a framework written in Ruby under the MIT license (Figure 1), you can easily adapt the code examples presented in this article to other languages.
Table 1
A Selection of IRC Bots
Name of Bot
Programming Language
PHP IRC Bot
Java IRC Bot
Cinch comes with an object-oriented API and a modular plugin system. Thanks to many unrelated plugins, a single bot can perform all kinds of tasks. To an IRC server, Cinch – as is typical of IRC bots – appears as a normal client. Therefore, it does not matter which system the bot runs on, whether on the same system as the IRC server or remotely on a developer machine. Nor does it matter which server software you use, as long as the server is a compliant implementation of IRC.
Bot on Board
Assuming you have a Ruby installation in place, you can install Cinch as follows:
gem install cinch
A simple bot named
hellobot.rb (Figure 2) that responds to salutations in the form of !hello is presented in Listing 1.
Listing 1
01 # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- 02 require "cinch" 03 04 class Greeter 05 include Cinch::Plugin 06 07 match /hello$/, method: :greet 08 def greet(m) 09 m.reply "Hi there" 10 end 11 end 12 13 bot = Cinch::Bot.new do 14 configure do |c| 15 c.nick = "<OurBot>" 16 c.server = "<IRC_server_address>" 17 c.channels = ["<#a_channel>", "<#another_channel>"] 18 c.plugins.plugins = [Greeter] 19 end 20 end 21 22 bot.start 23
ruby hellobot.rb brings the bot to life; it then connects with the IRC server
<IRC_server_address> and joins the channels
<#a_channel> and
<#another_channel>. If an IRC user types !hello in one of these channels, the bot responds with a rather indifferent Hi there.
The sample code consists of two parts: The main part is the
Greeter class (lines 4-11). Each class represents a single plugin that responds to one or more commands from the user; a command must begin with an exclamation mark. To match the commands, bot developers rely on regular expressions. For example,
/(\d+)/ is a single argument comprising one or multiple numbers.
The second part (lines 13-20) takes care of configuring the bot. The program receives a name and an address at which it can log in. Line 18 also explains what plugins the bot should use. The configuration of the file does not change in the remainder of the article, so I can now move on to the actual plugin classes. Developers can easily extend the array of plugins; for more information on the API, check out the documentation [3].
GitHub Connection
Developers spend a huge amount of time processing tickets; little wonder their conversations often revolve around this topic. This article will show you how to build a bot that will control the GitHub ticket system. A plugin will support opening, closing, and finding tickets. At the same time, I want the bot to respond to references of the type
repository/gh-ticket_number in messages by displaying the title status of the ticket in the channel.
GitHub's API [4] is based on HTTP and JSON and allows both read and write access to large parts of GitHub – including tickets. You can experiment with access using
curl at the command line; Listing 2, for example, requests ticket number
13069 from the Rails project.
Listing 2
Ticket Request with curl
01 $ curl https://api.github.com/repos/rails/rails/issues/13069 02 { 03 "title": "Requires JSON gem version 1.7.7 or above as it contains an important security fix.", 04 "user": { 05 "login": "chancancode", 06 <[...]> 07 }, 08 "labels": [], 09 "state": "closed", 10 "created_at": "2013-11-27T06:20:30Z", 11 "updated_at": "2013-11-27T10:07:54Z", 12 "closed_at": "2013-11-27T10:07:54Z", 13 "body": "See [here](https://github.com/flori/json/blob/master/CHANGES).", 14 [...] 15 }
This (abridged) example shows how GitHub structures the information the bot requires to display tickets. The developer can access both public information (such as tickets from open source projects) as well as private tickets [5]. In the second case, however, you do need to authenticate. The API allows authentication either via O-Auth or classic HTTP, which is usually sufficient for an IRC bot. For in-house installations of GitHub, access to the API looks like this:

8/10 Penrith Steve Customer review, 13th February 2015
"You Were Right", The sixth album by Brendan Benson opens with "It's Your Choice", a great song that is reminiscent of any good stuff Steve Miller Band did. (There was some....Jet Airliner?) Like it's predecessor, "What Kind Of World", this is choc-full of great alt-pop. "Rejuvenate Me" and "As Of Tonight" continue on from the opener to make a thrilling triumvirate of melodic bliss. "Diamond" changes the pace a little but still, melody is at the forefront. "Log Term Goal" has that typical Brendan Benson stomp, like earlier classics such as "Good To Me". Another decent effort from an underrated artist.

text: 000 FXUS63 KLBF 290414 AAB AFDLBF Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service North Platte NE 1114 PM CDT Wed Sep 28 2016 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Thursday) Issued at 300 PM CDT Wed Sep 28 2016 A ridge will remain over the plains with mild and dry weather persisting through the short term. Northeast winds are expected to increase this afternoon and will then turn more southerly as a closed low across the Great Lakes Region drops south into the Ohio valley and another low in the North Pacific digs and moves on shore. The movement of these features will shift the back side of the ridge over our area and put us into southerly flow. Given the dry air aloft, we are expected to remain clear tonight into tomorrow with this southerly flow expected to decouple overnight as the surface inversion develops. It will remain dry and mild on Thursday with high temperatures just a few degrees cooler tomorrow as the Great Lakes low pulls down a cooler airmass. .LONG TERM...(Thursday night through Wednesday) Issued at 300 PM CDT Wed Sep 28 2016 The main features mentioned in the short term discussion will remain in some form through Monday. Overall across our region, heights will be on a lowering trend through the long term bottoming out when the North Pacific low transitions on shore and then past the Rockies and into the plains early next week. By late in the weekend, southwest flow aloft will persist ahead of the developing western U.S. upper trough with leading short waves ahead of the main trough. Pacific moisture will advect into the region in this southwest flow, with a slight chance for thunder maintained in the forecast. Attention turns to the upper trough for the beginning and middle parts of next week. The global models are singing the same tune but the GFS is a bit more aggressive with the strength and eastward progression of this system. Main impacts, depending on the timing of these features could be strong to severe storms as the trough becomes negatively tilted and pushes through a cold front, which could happen next Tuesday. Then, there could be a period of cool and breezy stratiform rain mid week. We will have to see how this plays out in reality but these are the expected impacts and timing at this time. Consistency with the previous forecast was maintained given its quality and the uncertainty this far out. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Thursday night) Issued at 1114 PM CDT Wed Sep 28 2016 VFR is expected along and west of Highway 83 overnight through Thursday evening. There is a slight chance patchy fog will develop along and east of Highway 183 for a few hours Thursday morning...11z-13z. Local IFR is possible in this area. Otherwise a few high clouds may invade Western Nebraska Thursday afternoon and Thursday evening. && .LBF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... None. && $$ SHORT TERM...Allen LONG TERM...Allen AVIATION...CDC

Average retail gasoline prices in Nevada have fallen 1.9 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $3.49 per gallon, according to GasBuddy's daily survey of 1,130 gas outlets in Nevada.
This compares with the national average that has fallen 4.2 cents per gallon in the last week to $3.38 per gallon, according to gasoline price website GasBuddy.com.
Including the change in gas prices in Nevada during the past week, prices yesterday were 42.8 cents per gallon lower than the same day one year ago and are 3.2 cents per gallon lower than a month ago. The national average has decreased 21.4 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 41.9 cents per gallon lower than this day one year ago.
"The national average has continued its decline which has been continuing for 34 consecutive days," said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan. "And the odds are very good that prices will continue to decline in most areas in the week ahead. Perhaps most notable at this point of decline is how much cheaper gas prices stand versus the same date last year, with motorists realizing prices that are 50 cents or more lower. Much of the difference can be blamed on more active Atlantic waters last year that brought more storms than what we've seen this year."
About GasBuddy
GasBuddy operates NevadaGasPrices.com and over 250 similar websites that track gasoline prices at over 140,000 gasoline stations in the United States and Canada. In addition, GasBuddy offers a free smartphone app which has been downloaded over 25 million times to help motorists find the lowest gasoline prices in their area.

I'd like to introduce myself!
My name is Katherine Buck and I am the new Community Manager for Betterment. I couldn't be more excited to be a part of the Betterment family, managing distribution of our social media content and writing about topics of interest for our valued customers and readers.
I came to Betterment as a customer who loved the service. I have been really into the sleek design and ease of using Betterment for a while, and most importantly the thesis of the company – helping people feel better about their future. I came from Wall Street, with tours through JP Morgan Private Bank and BlackRock's institutional client group. I've worked at different levels of personal finance distribution, from individual wealth management to selling funds to plan sponsors providing 401(k) plans to employees. I wanted to continue my career in the business of saving and investing, but at a company that was mission-driven.
Writing has always been a passion of mine. In addition to my time in financial services, I worked as a freelance copy editor for LivingSocial and majored in Communications while at Boston College. When the opportunity at Betterment opened up where I could contribute to its mission of providing smart, accessible investing while tapping into my experience and love of writing, it was truly a dream role.
I look forward to using my background and voice to provide you with engaging, meaningful content from the Betterment brand.
When not managing the social media channels or creating new content with colleagues, you can find me reading, exploring New York (and writing about it!) and breaking it down to Michael Jackson jams. Please do not hesitate to get in touch with me if there is anything you would like to see more of, less of, or if you just want to connect. I am available via email and you can follow me on Twitter. I look forward to getting to know you!

Jail for West Rutland robberNovember 29,2012A St. Albans man convicted of robbing a pharmacy in West Rutland was sentenced to 40 months behind bars this week.
Christopher J. McCarthy, 43, pleaded guilty earlier this year to a federal charge of obstructing commerce by robbery.
On Monday, Judge Christina Reiss sentenced McCarthy to more than three years in jail followed by three years of supervised release. He must also pay $405 in restitution to Rite Aid.
McCarthy was arrested on Feb. 11 hours after he approached a clerk at the pharmacy and handed her a note that demanded prescription painkiller drugs and the promise that if the demands were met no one will get hurt.
In an interview with police, McCarthy said he was addicted to the drugs and robbed the pharmacy out of desperation.
McCarthy was originally charged in a Vermont court, but the state dismissed its charge against him in April to allow the federal charge to be brought.MORE IN This Just In

Phoenix Suns
Jared Dudley's done right during Suns' win streak
The Phoenix Suns have trotted out five different starting lineups during the first 25 games of the 2012-13 season.
And it's no coincidence that their latest starting five — one that has five-year veteran Jared Dudley back in his natural small forward position — has generated instant returns.
Over his last four games, the former Boston College star has averaged 18.0 points, 4.7 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 2.0 steals per contest. The Suns in that same stretch are 3-1.
"I definitely think we're playing the right way," Dudley told Arizona Sports 620's Doug & Wolf Tuesday. "I try to tell people that yeah I was struggling earlier in the year, but as a team we we're struggling."
Dudley began the year as Phoenix's starting shooting guard, but poor ball movement limited his opportunities and the Suns certainly suffered because of it. During the team's 4-7 start, Dudley averaged 8.5 points per game on 42.5 percent shooting.
"You can tell the good teams that are playing well, because usually their role players are playing well," said Dudley. "That's usually because the ball is moving.
"Early in the season, and even up until the last couple of games, we were playing selfish basketball. We didn't have a lot of assists, but we had a lot of turnovers because we were going to the isolation one-on-one."
While the Suns have not shot above 48 percent during their current three-game win streak, the ball movement has been apparent as the team has averaged 24.3 assists in their victories over the Memphis Grizzlies, Utah Jazz and Sacramento Kings.
"We've shown these last three or four games, even though it's a small sample, if you play unselfish, if you play hard and you give it up to the next guy…you can be successful," said Dudley.

DALLAS -- If the axiom, you play like you practice, is true then maybe the Dallas Mavericks snap out of their third-quarter funks that have turned three consecutive halftime leads into disappointing losses.
That's the focus during this rare three-day break as the Mavs nurse a three-game skid.
"We've got to be better over a full 48 minutes, without question," Mavs coach Rick Carlisle said. [Monday] we simulated a situation where the first part of practice was a hard, defensive-oriented practice, and then we took about a five- or six-minute break to shoot free throws. Really, talking about that, that's simulating halftime. And then coming out of that break we've got to be able to pick it right back up. And so, we're making a conscious effort to do that and it's got to be an emphasis for us."
Breakdowns have occurred on both sides of the floor. Take Saturday's loss at Cleveland as a prime example of a total meltdown after halftime. Dallas had five players combine to go 6-of-19 from the floor and seven players committed a turnover. Carlisle harped on the inability to stop numerous dribble penetrations -- more than 25 in the game. In the final 7:42 of the third quarter, the Cavaliers scored four of seven baskets at the rim and two more from within seven feet to turn an eight-point halftime deficit into a 70-64 lead.
Attention has also focused to Dirk Nowitzki and whether he's getting the ball when and where he needs it. He's heated up in the last two games, scoring 30 and 24 points on a combined 21-of-32 scoring. But, with Jason Kidd sidelined five games and counting with a strained right calf, it seems the ball, as Jason Terry sternly pointed out after Friday's loss to Indiana, has too often eluded Nowitzki's hot hand.
Nowitzki said 17 and 15 shot attempts are not necessarily too few. After going 5-of-5 from the floor in the first half at Cleveland, he put up five shots in the third quarter and missed all of them.
In this two-game resurgence, others have dropped off. Shawn Marion has just 12 points in the last two games and Jason Terry is a combined 9-of-25. There's certainly an adjustment without Kidd's savvy play leading the show, but in or out, the Mavs have to find their flow offense that gets everyone involved.
Dallas ranks 10th in the log-jammed Western Conference in scoring at 93.8 points a game, and only team below them, the Los Angeles Lakers, are in the playoff mix.
"We've got to keep some of those guys involved," Nowitzki said. "Jet has been good. 'Trix was great for us the first third of the season with his slashing and posting some. He only took five shots the other night. With me playing better, we've still got to find the other guys, keep them involved and keep them playing at a high level. We've got to be a good team to beat some of those teams."

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate HD, also known as Castlevania: The Longest Title, is heading to PC later this month. Konami has already named Steam in their announcement, so no one needs to ask where they can download a copy.
Formerly a 3DS title, an HD update for Mirror of Fate came out for Xbox 360 and PS3 last year, in October. Although it's basically a companion game (and prequel) to Lords of Shadow 2, Mirror of Fate takes after the more classic Castlevania style, rather than the new Lords of Shadow action format. Consider it a mix of that and old school side-scroller.
As for where it falls into the Lords of Shadow franchise, Mirror of Fate takes place 25 years after Lords of Shadow, following the stories of Gabriel Belmont's descendents -- including Trevor and Simon. After their father goes all Dracula mode, the two set out to defeat him and avenge their mother. Yep, sounds like an average day in Castlevania.
No word yet on when Mirror of Fate HD will hit Steam this month, but March is halfway done, so the wait can't be that long. For now, check out some screenshots below from the PC version.

This is a fitting magnetic net release to compliment your new custom Sierra Net. It is made of durable yet plush leather. The magnet is affixed with a solid copper rivet and the Chicago bolt which attaches the release to your net frame is solid brass. The Vest side can be made of any wood species and is attached using a stainless steel carabiner. Each custom leather magnetic net release costs $85.00.
Magnetic net releases, are extremely helpful. They offer that extra hand while wade fishing. Attach one S-Clip to your D-ring between your shoulder blades on your wading vest/pack, and the other to your net. The net sits at the ready until you are ready to use it. A quick snap of the net to release it, and you are ready to net your fish. The rare earth magnets Sierra Nets use are powerful enough to snap back together with ease.
|Our Leather Magnetic Net Releases are beautifully crafted from Latigo Leather, brass & Copper hardware. They allow you to carry the net, handle down, which makes it even quicker and easier to grasp. The large rare earth magnets, by design, are stronger than any I have seen in the marketplace. They are meant to keep your net secured safely to your back even when boulder hopping or crashing through stream-side vegetation.

By Russ Fradin (not to be confused by the picture of Lindsay Bell-Wheeler over there <—-)
We are all acutely aware of the value that social media brings to brands, and we at least acknowledge the existence of a good social media marketing strategy.
But what if developing a working strategy isn't the primary issue when trying to bang the social media drum?
What if the issue is social media anxiety? You probably have at least one colleague who is just not very engaged on social media.
Their Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, or Google+ profiles are either barren or rarely updated, and they don't bother to engage other users to increase their following.
While not everyone needs to be actively engaged on social media, it's crucial for anyone in communications, marketing, or public relations to have an online voice and an audience.
PR people, in particular, should be developing relationships with journalists on Twitter, and spreading client news across their social media channels as a best practice.
So where is the disconnect?
Social Media Anxiety
When it comes to employees representing themselves, their company, and even clients or customers, there can be resistance and even anxiety about posting content online. One poorly written post, and their mistakes are available for public criticism.
Employees may also fear misrepresenting clients or they may not even know what is "brand-safe" to share. Businesses are rapidly realizing the need to find a way to overcome their employees' social anxiety, and integrate them into their larger social media strategy.
So how can your business do this? Motivate your team to participate in social media through an employee advocacy program.
An employee advocacy strategy is based around the concept of encouraging employees to become advocates on behalf of their company, and is a powerful strategy that can boost your employees' networks, strengthen relationships with current clients, and get the attention of prospective clients.
Making it Work
So how do you actually pull off an employee advocacy strategy? Here are some guidelines, things you need to have established – as policy -to get you started in the right direction.
Social Media Policy
First of all, if you don't have a social media policy, you should seriously want to consider creating one.
There are certain best practices that need to be followed when sending out tweets on behalf of your company or customers. A basic corporate social media policy includes guidelines on what employees should – and should – not share online.
A good employee advocacy platform will make it really easy for your employees to follow the policy and stay compliant.
Employee Enablement
Social media can seem self-explanatory to those with experience, but there is still a learning curve. Convenience is the key to getting employees to participate and share. An effective employee advocacy tool should simplify social sharing, not make it more complicated.
Certain tools accomplish this by aggregating all brand-safe, relevant content in a single location, and allow employees to link multiple social accounts to the platform, enabling them to share the content on all their social channels in fewer steps.
Employees already have day jobs so asking them to be social media mavens is a tall order. A good employee advocacy platform will make it super convenient.
Sharing Strategy
Employees will need to know what to share. Whether company or client news, there needs to be a strategy to keep them up to date on the latest suggested posts. This can be as simple as an email to employees from the social media manager with suggested tweets or posts, or a link to an article to share.
Employee Advocacy is Opt-In Only
Social media has its benefits, and when an employee is using their social media networks to promote something or someone this should be by choice. But as employee advocacy should be opt-in only, incentives – rather than demanding employees become social advocates – can be a great way to encourage sharing.
Recognition is often the most powerful incentive and reward.
Give employees credit for their social media efforts. Create a leaderboard, for example, with a point system, and award monthly prizes to your most active employee advocates.
Reap the Benefits
As PR professionals, you naturally want to get news out to as many people on as many channels as possible. Accomplishing this via social media, however, is vastly different than distributing a news release. The right advocacy tool will help your employees overcome social media anxiety stemming from a social media learning curve, or the fear of sharing not brand-safe content.
A brand story shared on social through your employee's authentic voices has the potential to meaningfully engage a far broader audience than traditional paid media. According to the 2013 Edelman Trust Barometer, employees are considered one of the most trusted and reliable sources of information, far more so than the CEO.
Employee sharing and networking on behalf of your brand not only increases their personal social clout, but also raises your brand's social profile. Show your employees how simple it is to discover, share, contribute and even drive larger conversations for your brand.
They will feel empowered, and your company and clients will reap the benefits. Everyone wins.

When I first read the subject line my reaction was "Only when I see ginidietrich being ganged up on online, by her friends." 🙂 Great post – it's a Re-reader for sure; I ran into this exact client syndrome yesterday, and there were TEARS. (Not by me – there ain't no crying in Social Media).
AmyMccTobin ginidietrich Hahaha!! No crying in social media!
AmyMccTobin ginidietrichGlad you liked the post. Having an open dialogue with your client about their social media guidelines can be helpful. But you're right, no crying in crying social media!
Don't worry… there's an app for that!
I definitely had this when I first started using social media. Especially Twitter – I had no clue what to talk about so I just didn't post anything. Now I'm probably way to comfortable with social, but still try not and share TOO much.
Great tips Russ…I wish I had them back when I started!!
I used to have social media anxiety, but then I met Gini Dietrich and she told me to just go for it. Be yourself and all that stuff 🙂 If I had not met pros like Gini, Danny Brown, Marcus Sheridan early on, I would never have kept hitting publish and I certainly would't be Twittering away, comfortably.
Have you read Gini (or Danny's) tweets? … they're kinda … well … goofy, really. And if they can be so comfortable why can't I? Eh?
Craig McBreenTheir tweets are great! They have personality, which is definitely something one should be embrace. If you're just tweeting about what you had for dinner, you won't be getting too many followers.
Only when I don't have access to my feeds!
The only shameful thing about Social Media would be if you hired someone else to post stuff under your name.
RobBiesenbach WOW!! That's a whole other level of anxiety!! But your right – I may not have the "OMG, what do I post" anxiety anymore, but I do have the "Crap, why isn't anyone liking/sharing/retweeting/commenting on my post? Why isn't my community growing? and Why isn't there any engagement?" anxiety.
Great article Russ.
It can be hard to encourage employees to talk about business with people both IRL (in real life) and especially virtually (on social media platforms).
Even some of the business development folks have problems doing this IRL & Virtually.
I love the idea of a leaderboard and public praise of employee social media activity.
Thanks for sharing.
This post is definitely resonating with me right now. We are currently re-platforming our corporate website, and we will be introducing a corporate blog. That means we will go through some of the angst you describe here.
I'm not one for the angst because I buy into the intelligence and discretion of our people, but we do need to stay "brand safe" and establish basic social policies and editorial reviews as appropriate.

A boutique hotel adorned with quaint drawings and sculptures.
Near the Jardin du Luxembourg, this arty hotel pays tribute to the famous painters who came there back in the day, such as Picasso, Modigliani and Foujita. Painted white bodies from Jérôme Mesnager can be seen throughout the location, from the walls in the rooms to the courtyard and even the façade; as well, there are sculptures by Sophie de Watrigant. The screening room is furnished with red banquettes for watching videos, and in the tea room guests can leaf through a collection of art books. The twenty fully-equipped accommodations are done up in four styles: the Man Ray with dark furniture and black moldings, the Comedienne with a headboard upholstered in red velvet, the Parisienne with a tiny alcove and the Ruhlmann with an Art Deco style.

THE BROMSGROVE woman who's brother died in the Hillsborough stadium disaster has admitted her shock at how much fresh information has been unearthed at the new inquests.
Since the hearings resumed in May they have now progressed onto the detailed circumstances surrounding the 1989 tragedy based on expert witness accounts.
The inquests have now revealed that plans to increase the amount of turnstiles at the Leppings Lane End where the disaster originated, were scrapped in 1985. The jury has also been told nothing was done to improve safety after a crush barrier in the stand was removed three years before the ill-fated FA Cup semi-final.
It has also emerged Nottingham Forrest fans had three times as many turnstiles open to them than Liverpool supporters on the day. Dr Wilfred Eastwood, who was chief engineer for stadium at the time, has also claimed the disaster would have been prevented if police had not shut 12 turnstiles on one side of the ground effectively forcing an extra 6,000 fans (resulting in 10,000 in total) into Hillsborough through Leppings Lane on the day.
The former club secretary of Sheffield Wednesday who served in the role until 1986 admitted he restricted ticket sales on two occasions for that area of the ground due to having his own fears for supporters' safety.
Louise Brookes, from Sidemoor, whose brother Andrew Brookes was one of the 96, said: "I knew a lot was going to come out but I did not expect this much so soon.
"It has been worse that I expected and it is going to get worse still."
Ms Brookes added it was 'disgraceful' the truth was only coming out now after Liverpool fans had been blamed for causing the disaster for the last 25 years by police and false media reports.
The inquests continue.

The Forestry Commission is encouraging residents of Salford and Bury to make getting fit their own Olympic legacy as we pass the 500 day landmark towards next year's games.
With the Olympics now less than 500 days away there is a lot of talk about what lasting legacies hosting the games will have in this country. It is hoped that improved public health and fitness will be one legacy from the games and so people are being encouraged to be inspired to get fit themselves by using great public facilities such as LIVIA.
People can use their local community woodlands, such as LIVIA, for free and they make excellent places to exercise and work out in a peaceful environment surrounded by nature.
With more than 13km of cycle routes, pathways and a purpose built, single track 'blue' mountain bike trail, as well as other play areas, the LIVIA community woodland is an ideal place to start a personal Olympic legacy.
Tim Oliver, the Forestry Commission's community woodlands manager, said:
"The Olympics are now less than 500 days away and soon the world's attention will be focused on the best athletes from around the globe performing in this country. This is bound to inspire future sporting heroes and at the Forestry Commission we hope that it will also inspire many people to start on their way to getting fitter and healthier.
"We have created fantastic public spaces, such as LIVIA in Salford and Bury, which are great places where people can go to do exercise in a natural environment, and for no cost. We hope community woodlands like LIVIA will help people start their own Olympic legacy towards a fitter future."
The LIVIA community woodland is part of Newlands (New Economic Environments via Woodlands) - a partnership scheme involving the Northwest Regional Development Agency (NWDA) and the Forestry Commission.
Sporting event organisers are also being encouraged to apply to use community woodlands like LIVIA. Information on how to obtain a permit to hold a sporting event at LIVIA can be found by visiting the following website http://www.forestry.gov.uk/website/oldsite.nsf/byunique/INFD-7CNKBP
LIVIA is one of seven Newlands projects that have been developed in the Mersey Belt area of Northwest England.
The £59 million NWDA-funded regeneration Newlands scheme has been rejuvenating around 381 hectares of the Northwest's derelict, underused and neglected land to stimulate economic growth and further opportunities for leisure and environmental improvements.
Stretching from Clifton in Salford to Prestwich in Bury, the LIVIA Newlands project boasts a diverse mix of habitats and facilities. It makes up part of Red Rose Forest - Greater Manchester's Community Forest – which is delivering environmental improvement projects and creating a cohesive network of green spaces along the Irwell Valley.
Managed by the Forestry Commission in partnership with Bury Council, Salford City Council, Groundwork and Red Rose Forest, LIVIA has become part of a much larger 'green space network'.
At 170 hectares it is a beacon project for Newlands which is set to provide the area with parkland on the scale of New York's Central Park.
Further information about LIVIA and other 'Newlands' projects is available at www.forestry.gov.uk/newlands and www.newlandsproject.co.uk

Smith & Wesson 22A Bull barrel

> Smith & Wesson 22A Bull barrel
May 24, 2008, 01:05 PM
I was wondering if anyone knows about the Smith & Wesson 22a. I want a 22 pistol to shoot. I got an ad in and Gander Mtn. has them for $200 with the 5 1/2"in. bull barrel.

My dad has one. Grip isn't the most comfortable but its a solid 22 auto for the price.

Solid gun, very accurate, and a good price. What's not to like?:D
May 25, 2008, 12:46 AM
I taught my wife how to shoot using one. Accurate and reliable. She has since moved on to other guns but keeps coming back to that 22A.
May 25, 2008, 09:35 AM
It is a good value on a fun accurate gun.
If you plan on using the rail be sure your choice of optic mounts is compatable with the rail. In general all Weaver individual ring mounted dots/scope will work. You will be able to find a place on the rail to work with these. Cheap red dots that have a intergrated Weaver/Picatinny mount will need some mods on the red dot and may need some mods on the rail slots to work.
Early guns broke the frame. The plastic recoil buffer is thin and prone to wear. They are available from Brownells and cheap get plenty. For consistant firing the recoil spring should be replaced every 5k or so. Easy to clean. Mags are reasonable and reliable. The mag release on the front of the grip is strange but easy to use. :)

I have one & it is a lot of fun & very accurate & reliable. For the money it is hard to beat. I would buy another in a heartbeat. With the high cost of ammo anymore, it's the only way to go. NRA PATRON LIFE MEMBER
May 28, 2008, 10:48 PM
Thanks to everyone for the info. I think I might get one.
May 30, 2008, 06:29 PM
I'm very happy to see all the positive feedback on this gun;
I did the unthinkable today on my lunch break and bought one without first researching it online, just the advice of the gun-store owner (very trustworthy guy though).
Time to go buy a brick of ammo and kill some paper. Should be an excellent weekend :)
Harley Quinn
June 29, 2008, 06:41 PM
Bumping this to get some more input. I will be picking mine up next week and shooting, it also. The bull barrels that are available, anyone interchange them and what optics do you like or do you just shoot open sights?
June 30, 2008, 08:42 AM
I love mine. The barrels interchange easily. Put a cheap red dot on it and it's an absolute tack driver.PLUS it has a lifetime 100% warranty from S&W.
Harley Quinn
June 30, 2008, 10:41 AM
Thanks, that is exactly what I was looking for regarding information.
June 30, 2008, 11:50 PM
I used to have one but sold it to get my Beretta 92. It was a good gun for a while but later suffered alot of jams and misfires. At one point, i had a jam or misfire after each time it fired correctly. you really cant expect firearms that use 22LR to be reliable, unless you buy expensive ammo, but this gun was a below average gun IMO.
Harley Quinn
July 1, 2008, 12:19 AM
I will shoot only the 40 grn ammo in it that is hi vel 1255+ will be condition.
Copper coated or lead will be fine I believe. I am interested in how others cleaned it with a rod or a snake of sorts. Some drop weighted string down the barrel and do it that way. From the breech or the front, "she no matter":) if you do it with the string.
July 1, 2008, 09:08 AM
The barrel comes off very easy and can be cleaned from the breech. The manual will have instructions.
With HiVelocity ammo you may need a new buffer fairly often. Brownells has them, a couple of bucks each, get a bunch.
Rod or Bore Snake your call. I scrub the chamber with a brush and bore snake the bore. The slide and firing pin channel are open and easy to clean. Cleaning is as easy as it gets. :)
Harley Quinn
July 1, 2008, 09:22 AM
I pick it up today, I'll read what they send with the pistol. If the 36 grain works pushing the slide back and is cheaper, I'll use that.
The reason I use the 40 grain in my kit slides is to make sure you are getting as much recoil as possible for they are moving the whole slide and not just a very small portion like the 22's do. Thanks for the information about the buffers.
September 7, 2008, 10:10 PM
Ok I might order one Tuesday but was wondering 51/2" bull barrel or 7" light barrel. I was leaning towards the bull barrel because it only $20 more but is still only $285 total. Is there any differences. I was thinking a 7" might be better because a 22 would get better velocity.
September 7, 2008, 10:50 PM
Harley Quinn
September 8, 2008, 12:25 AM
I have shot mine numerious times now, and really enjoy it, the sights (open) are black on black, so I painted the front one fluorscent green :)
Used both the 40 grain and the 36 grain, worked flawlessly all the time...Hundreds of rounds through it not a problem, none, zip, nada...
I have the shorter barrel and it is just fine, depends on you and what you want, the pistol is heavy at 32 oz's with out the bull barrel. I really like it...
September 8, 2008, 01:11 AM
I like mine. Shoots Blazers, CCI Minis, Federals, and bulk Rems without a blip. Accurate with factory sights.
September 8, 2008, 06:59 AM
If anyone else wants to put their 2cents in about the barrel please do. I know the 22A isn't a lot of money but I still want to get the right gun and not be disappointed.
September 8, 2008, 07:09 AM
i have both a 22A and a beretta NEOS while there both ugly as sin i like my beretta a tad more grip is nice and comfy and i think buds has the neos for around $200 or so
September 8, 2008, 08:55 AM
Mine has the 5 1/2 barrel. I love it.
It runs on Federal bulk pack you buy at Wally World most of the time (Wifes Rugers choice ammo).
I've also run it on Winchester Bulk pack with no problems.
It has even run on Remington Golden bullets Bluk Pack with no problems.
It hates the light hyper velocity "Sptifires" thou (misfires every 2 rounds or so for some reason, but her Ruger runs fine on them).
These Smith 22A's are fine plinking pistols and even (dare I say) capable of being competitive (with proper ammo) at most local club level matches. I really like mine well worth the $200.00 I paid.
September 8, 2008, 06:40 PM
Thanks I am still wondering about the velocity difference between the different length barrels. would the velocity I would gain from the longer barrel be worth it. I ask if it is worth it because I was planning on the 51/2" bull barrel because I don't think it will make a dramatic difference seeing this is for plinking at the range. Though I want the more accurate one.
September 8, 2008, 08:43 PM
September 8, 2008, 09:45 PM
If you like the 22A, get the bull barrel. It will do just fine and the price is good. I really don't think the bull barrel or the standard barrel shoot that much differently. Besides, if you don't like the bull barrel, you can get a drop in replacement for about $100. I did that with my 5.5" barrel, added a 7" barrel. Now, I sort of have two good shooting 22A's.
September 8, 2008, 10:35 PM
Ok I will go order it tomorrow and maybe a saiga 308 later in the week. My next range session is going to be really fun.
September 9, 2008, 12:30 PM
If you can, you should hold each before you buy, that way you can get the one that feels best to you. As far as the length goes, I prefer the longer barrel as I shoot open sights and am often hunting with it. The longer barell gets me longer sight radius, slightly better FPS at the muzzle and more than anything, I like the looks of the longer barrels.
I'd say if you cannot hold them both, then for range plinking, just buy the one that looks best to you. For the duties it is going to perform, I doubt either/or will make that much of a difference over the other. Just my thoughts...
September 9, 2008, 06:35 PM
I didn't get it ordered .I didn't think there would be a big difference.
When I was in Gander Mtn. I held the bull barrel model. I am not sure but I think the guy I was going to order from had the standard barrel. [Not Sure Though]
Harley Quinn
September 9, 2008, 09:20 PM
If you get the longer barrel, you can get this shorter one here.
September 9, 2008, 11:01 PM
Thanks, but for that price I could spend an extra $20-30 and get a whole different gun.
October 17, 2008, 12:42 AM
Was reading this thread and noticed some of the scopes. What scopes could anyone recommend for the 22A? Moderately priced of course...
December 11, 2008, 09:34 PM
Does anyone thread or have a barrel adaptor for threads for this model. would like to find a way to put my can on it.:confused:
April 29, 2009, 09:34 PM
Bought the 22A about 2 weeks ago, Shot 100 rounds the day I purchased it. Shot Aquilla 40gr Match Pistol to test accuracy. Shot 50 rounds from a rest at 25 yards that a fifty cent piece could cover. Used a MicroDot sight.
Yesterday took it out again, loaded 8 rounds of same ammo. It ran through the magazine and locked open in a normal manner. I then picked up my SIG Trailside to shoot. Noticed a small spring on my bench towel. Examined the just shot 22A and found the extractor and extractor plunger to be missing.
Emailed the address listed in the manual and explained the problem, asked for shipping advice. No answer yet, will call tomorrow.
I will say it is super accurate, not very happy with the extractor problem.
May 11, 2009, 07:21 PM
its been a while for me since being on the board... looks like i'm late to the party... Lol's
anyways ... i have been looking at the 22A myself although its been out for some time i just took notice.. late as usually...
so whats the take good buy .. maybe .. bad
any new remarks found i'd be interested i hearing.. the shop i saw the S&W at has the model 107437 silver sides 5 1/2 brl in stock i just need a purchase stub an good news on this model anyone ??

Photos: Vitali Klitschko Honored at 2014 Sport Bild Awards
HAMBURG, GERMANY - Former heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko was honored at the 2014 Sport Bild Awards at Fischauktionshalle on August 25, 2014 in Hamburg, Germany. Vitali was presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award. Klitschko was practically unbeatable as a champion. Eventually he vacated his title to focus on his political career in Ukraine.
SPORT BILD editor in chief of Alfred Draxler: " For almost 16 years Vitali Klitschko was one of the most feared heavyweights in the boxing ring and now he's fighting as a politician in perhaps the toughest fight of his life."
