Berto is Not Impressed With Guerrero's Aydin Win
By Keith Idec
Andre Berto sat ringside the night Robert Guerrero made his welterweight debut against Selcuk Aydin.
Berto left HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif., on July 28 impressed with Guerrero's unanimous-decision victory over the rugged, heavy-handed Aydin. The former IBF and WBC welterweight title-holder assured Guerrero on a conference call, however, that their 12-round fight Saturday night in Ontario, Calif., will be quite different.
"Me and Aydin, we're two completely different fighters," Berto said, before adding Aydin was a "punching bag" throughout his loss to Guerrero. "But like I said, Robert did what he had to do. He came in there, and I think he looked good at the weight, and he did what he had to do. He stayed busy and kept turning him all night. And fighting a guy like Aydin, that's what you have do."
Guerrero took exception to Berto's punching bag assessment of the previously unbeaten boxer from Turkey.
"Aydin did come and take some punches, but he wasn't a punching bag," Guerrero said. "He's a tough guy, comes in strong, and he was determined to win. And the one thing that's hard to stop is a determined man. But Andre Berto, like [Berto] said, is obviously a different fighter. He knows how to make fights. I'm happy with the style that I bring to the ring because I can bring a bunch of different stuff to the ring."
The 29-year-old Guerrero (30-1-1, 18 KOs, 2 NC), of Gilroy, Calif., defeated Aydin by sizeable margins on all three scorecards (117-111, 116-112, 116-112) to win the interim WBC welterweight title. Aydin entered their fight 23-0, including 17 knockouts, but was out-boxed by the left-handed Guerrero for much of their 12-round bout, despite his obvious punching power.
Berto (28-1, 22 KOs), who is also a bigger puncher than Guerrero, is certain that cannot happen to him in their HBO "World Championship Boxing" main event from Citizens Business Bank Arena. He hasn't fought in 14 months due to a biceps injury and a positive test for androlone, yet the Winter Haven, Fla., native believes his speed and strength advantages will help him halt Guerrero's seven-fight winning streak.
"Aydin is flat-footed," Berto, 29, said. "Aydin puts his block up, and just like Robert said, he is a strong wall. He just walks to you and tried to bang you out, and I've seen that in that fight with him and Aydin. But to turn somebody like [Aydin] is easy to do. Like I said, different styles make different fights. But I don't fight too much like Aydin, so it's going to be a different situation."

Before digital photography, photographic prints were made by exposing light sensitive paper passing light through the negative, the original image. During that process, you could block light from certain areas of the image in order to lighten or darken selectively throughout the image. With digital, that process is much easier. We can simply paint with light and dark directly onto the image. Let me show you one of the ways that you can do this with Photoshop Elements.
I have an image here with some flowers in the foreground and a mountain in the background. And because of some haze in the sky, that mountain is looking a little bit low in contrast. I'd also like to darken the sky down just a little bit, and for added emphasis, I think I'll lighten up the flowers and perhaps darken up the foliage. And that's a fair amount of refinement to the lighting for this image, but it's relatively easy as you'll see in just a moment. I'm going to use the Brush tool for this purpose. Just a simple paint brush that would allow me to paint pixels onto an image.
However, I am going adjust the settings for the brush. So that, instead of painting opaque pixels over the top of my image, I am actually just lightening and darkening specific areas of the image. The key to this technique is the Overlay Blend mode. So, after choosing the Brush tool from the toolbox, you'll want to set the Blend Mode on the Options Bar to Overlay. We'll also want to work at a relatively low opacity so that we're not applying too strong an effect to the image. Generally speaking, I would work with about a 10% opacity.
However, in this case, so that it will be a little bit easier for you to see the actual effect, I'm going to increase that to 20%. I'll also want to make sure that I'm working with a Soft Edge Brush. And you can do that very easily by simply clicking on the Brush pop-up and then choosing one of the brushes that looks fuzzy. That will be a Soft edge Brush. And we can then move the mouse out over the image to evaluate the size of the brush. In this case, I think the brush is too small for painting over the sky, so I'll press the right square bracket key to increase the size of the brush.
You can also press the left square bracket key as needed to reduce the size of the brush. I'll use a moderately large brush in this case. And once again, the effect will be a little bit strong here, because I'm working at a 20% opacity. Normally, I would work at about a 10% or 15% opacity. I'll press the letter D on the keyboard to make sure my colors are set to their default values with black as my foreground color and white as my background color. Painting with black will allow me to darken areas of the image and painting with white will allow me to lighten areas of the image.
When I want to switch between these colors, I can simply press the letter X on the keyboard to exchange the foreground and background colors. I'll start off with black as my foreground color so that I can darken the image a little bit. And then, I'll paint through the sky to darken the image in the sky and also down into the mountain to darken the darker portions of the mountain in order to improve contrast. Then I'd like to lighten the flowers a little bit, so I'll press X to switch my foreground and background colors, so that white is my foreground color for lightening the image. And I'll adjust the brush size a little bit.
In this case, I need to reduce the size of the brush and then I can paint over the flowers. Because I'm working with a Soft Edge Brush, I don't need to worry about being too precise in my painting. I don't want to be sloppy, but I don't need to be especially precise either. I'll go ahead and press X one more time to exchange foreground and background colors, so that black is my foreground color. And then, I'll paint over the foliage in the foreground here to darken that up. This will help to emphasize the flowers just a little bit, and I think, to improve the overall appearance of the image.
It's important to keep in mind that with each new pass, I'm going to apply an additional lightening or darkening effect in the image. So for example, if I go back to the mountain and click and drag to paint over the mountain again. I'll be applying an additional darkening to the mountain. With each new pass, I'll be applying a stronger and stronger effect. And so, you do need to be a little bit careful about painting too many times over a given area. But with just a little bit of painting here to lighten and darken specific areas of the image, I have a result that I'm much happier with.

Jeter makes quick alterations to UWM's pace
UW-Milwaukee Panthers coach Rob Jeter has a couple of new sports cars in the garage, and he's anxious to get them onto the track and let them do their thing.
Jordan Aaron and Thierno "Bobo" Niang, a pair of junior-college transfers, will serve as the focal points of what's expected to be a faster, more up-tempo offense this season for UWM.
Aaron, a 5-foot-10 jet, takes the reins as the Panthers' starting point guard. The 6-1 Niang, brought on board to serve as his backup, is expected to spend the first month or so as part of the first five. He takes the place of Paris Gulley, the other projected starter in the backcourt who's recovering from surgery on his fractured left hand.
Both are comfortable with the basketball in their hands and excel at pushing the pace.
It'll be a different look for the Panthers, who for the past few seasons had used a more methodical style with the crafty Kaylon Williams running the show and the Panthers' big men being called upon to set screens and shoot jumpers.
"There's always those cynics who are like, 'Oh, they're not going to do that,' " Jeter said, referring to his speeding up the pace. "But what you need to understand is if you have bodies or personnel that like to play a certain way, then as a coach, you've got to allow them to have success. If you have guys that can't play a certain way, you can't force it on them.
"It's natural for some of these guys - Jordan, to get the ball up quick. It's natural for 'Bobo' to get the ball up the floor quick. So I'm not going to hold that back. Just let them play."
That certainly is music to the ears of Aaron, a native of the Bronx who brings some East Coast swagger to a Panthers team trying to improve upon last season's 20-14 record and the sixth-place finish for which they were pegged in the Horizon League this season.
"I love to get up and down the court and utilize my speed," said Aaron, who played the last two years at Southeastern Community College in Burlington, Iowa. "We're all now in great shape, and it should be very exciting for the fans to watch.
"Last year was kind of a little slower-paced, kind of took (the fans) out of the game a little bit. We're going to speed it up but stay under control, and a lot of fans are going to like what they see."
Forward James Haarsma also likes the prospects. While he'll still get his chances to pick and pop, the big man will now be asked to pick and dive to the basket more as well as just run the court hard to keep the pressure on opposing defenses.
"If I run the floor now, there will be easy opportunities to score easy baskets, and that's always exciting," said Haarsma, the team's leading returning scorer and rebounder at 10.8 and 5.4, respectively.
"You can't complain when you're getting open layups. It is a lot more exciting just because it'll create a lot more opportunities. We'll have an opportunity to wear the other team down, which is something we really didn't do last year."
The Panthers shot just 41.7% from the floor last season and 61.2% from the free-throw line, the worst in the Horizon League. Not having Gulley, who knocked down 59 three-pointers and is the best returning regular at the charity stripe, certainly won't help matters in the early going.
Gulley is expected to miss at least a month, a stretch that will see the Panthers play games at South Carolina, Arkansas-Little Rock and Northern Iowa and a big home game Nov. 17 against Davidson.
"Obviously with Paris being down, we're a little nervous about it," Jeter said. "We have two point guards on the floor right now, and most point guards aren't thinking catch and shoot - they're thinking attack. So we've got to find someone to fill that role of just being a catch-and-shoot guy that we really got Paris settled into.
"I guess if we're able to get to the free-throw line, then the question marks you might have with outside shooting can be answered. More paint touches. So we'll see how that unfolds as the season starts."
The Panthers' schedule has a new look because of the defection of former Horizon League flagship school Butler to the Atlantic 10.
That left UWM as the winningest program in the league over the past 12 years, having averaged more than 10 conference victories per season over that span, but also with some significant gaps in its schedule. Jeter did well to land the game with Davidson, which is expected to be an NCAA Tournament team, but now no Horizon League games will be played until January.
"We can go on the road and play, but then we're not giving our fans what we think they deserve - at least 14, 15 home games," Jeter said. "So we really stuck to that. That's why by losing Butler, we got put in a jam. We were very fortunate to get Davidson, and you can see why no one wants to play Davidson - they're very good. But we're going to lace them up, play, and it's going to be a great experience for us."
Another change will be the venue. After a run at the U.S. Cellular Arena in downtown Milwaukee, UWM is back on campus and playing in the Klotsche Center.
The seating has been upped to 3,400, and other improvements have already been made or are planned, including a set of video boards. The hope is the Panthers will be able to parlay the cozier confines into a significant home-court advantage.
Illinois-Chicago found out how tough it can be to play there last season in a first-round Horizon League tournament game, when the Panthers knocked down 14 of 25 three-pointers in a 68-55 victory.
"The one game we did play here last year against UIC, and I know UIC probably didn't like it very much," Haarsma said. "It was awesome to play in front of the students. That's what college basketball is about. Not to put down any of the other fans, but it's neat to play in front of the students.
"It was an awesome atmosphere. I know if we can do that often, people aren't going to want to come play in here."

The Great Terracotta Army of China's First Emperor
July 5 - October 2, 2016
Emperor Qin Shi Huang, who established the first unified dynasty in China in 221 BC, created his own mausoleum and filled it with a Terracotta Army consisting of some 8,000 ceramic figures. By assembling the gems of these historical relics, which were discovered in 1974, this exhibition sets out to capture the "eternal world" envisioned by China's first emperor.
Collection 2
July 5 - October 2, 2016
Based on the theme of "Recollection," we present a selection of works from the museum collection related to three key concepts: "Actions / Traces," "Memory / History," and "Movement / Space."

Skechers Reggae Rasta Sport Sandal
"I purchased these in 2014-2015 and they wore out. I really wanted to purchase them again for the upcoming season in 2016-17. So glad I found them again. I love these sandals. The only ones I can wear between my toes."

Super Comfy
"These are super comfy sandals and feel like you're walking on a cloud - so much cushion!! My only issue was the toe strap... I'm not a big fan of straps that wrap around the big toe, but I think that's a personal preference."

Man pleads guilty to Aberfan chapel arson
A man has pleaded guilty to setting fire to Aberfan Chapel. Daniel Brown told police he gets a 'kick' out of arson.
Daniel Brown, of Nixonville, Merthyr Vale, was charged with reckless arson with threat to endanger life. Much of the chapel at Aberfan was destroyed by the fire last month.
Brown told police he gets "a kick" out of seeing the fire service turn up. He set his own house on fire when he was nine years old. The court heard that he had called in the emergency services himself when they didn't turn up and "enjoyed being involved in this type of activity".
Wearing a grey t-shirt with short brown hair, Brown confirmed his name and guilty plea. The judge at Merthyr Crown Court told him to expect a lengthy prison sentence.
Psychiatric reports will be completed before he is sentenced next month.
Man arrested in connection with Aberfan chapel fire
A 27-year-old man from Merthyr Tydfil has been arrested in connection with a fire at the historic Aberfan chapel.
Fire crews were called to the building in the early hours of Saturday morning where investigations found that the fire was started deliberately.
The fire was extinguished by South wales Fire and Rescue Services but much of the building was destroyed.
Anyone with any information concerning the incident is urged to contact South Wales Police on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
Dramatic footage shows scale of fire that damaged Aberfan chapel
Dramatic footage caught by eyewitnesses shows the scale of the fire and subsequent damage to the historic Aberfan chapel.
Fire crews responded to the incident at just before 2 this morning and have been re-inspecting the scene throughout the day.
Structural engineers have also visited the chapel, with Jennie Griffiths of South Wales Fire Service tweeting the structure was "in danger of collapse"
The chapel was used as a mortuary by the Aberfan community after the coal tip disaster of 1966, where mud and debris flooded Pantglas Junior School killing 116 children and 28 adults.

Sterling Vineyards Chardonnay
Wine Details
Winemaker's Notes
(From 2011 Vintage) The gentle nature of the fruit from this vintage allows the influence of the barrels to shine through, lending rich caramel and vanilla notes to ripe tropical fruit, citrus and floral aromas. The palate is layered with golden apples and peaches and pierced by a bright streak of citrus that carries into the long and crisp finish.
nice mix of creamy and tart/fruity
Expert Reviews
Wine BuyerThe Sterling Vintner's Collection Chardonnay is a pale straw color, with concentrated aromas of floral fruit, honeysuckle, pineapple, green apple, soft oak, vanilla and toast followed by flavors of green apple, tropical melon, touches of mineral, baked apple and spice, caramel and French vanilla. The wine shows bright acidity on the entry with a creamy mid palate.

Carson High's 3200 relay quartet of Tyler Bradshaw, Corey Reid, Dexter Cummings and Zach Heinz have two things on their mind entering this week's NIAA 4A State Track & Field Championships.
The quartet wants to break the school record of 8:01 and bring home a gold medal.
It's quite an undertaking, considering the Senators are going up against Centennial, which ran a 7:44 earlier this year thanks to superstar distance runners Nick Hartle and Jackson Carter, both sub-2-minute runners.
Carson had the state's best regional qualifying mark with its 8:11.28, while Centennial logged an 8:12.47 and Green Valley 8:12.26. Carson has the second-fastest time in Nevada this year.
Cummings ran a 2:03.6, Heintz a 2:03.5, Reid 2:02.3 and Bradshaw ran a 2:01.
"We had Corey and Taylor pull off a little bit," Carson coach Robert Maw said last Saturday after the Senators opened the meet with the win. "I think we can go 8:04 or 8:05 next week. Taylor is capable of running a 1:57 or 1:58.
"Hartle qualified in all four of his open events (400, 800, 1600 and 3200), so we might not even see the same guys that ran the 7:44. Corey has improved. We've moved him to anchor because of his ability to run under pressure."
The Senators' new line-up has Bradshaw leading off followed by Heinz, Cummings and Reid, who is a freshman. Reid anchors both the 1600 and 3200 teams.
The only thing Reid is concerned about is that he has to high jump right after the 3200 relay.
"The 4x4 is Saturday, so that's my only event of the day," he said. "I'll be fine. I'm just going to run my own race."
Reid passed three runners down the backstretch to give Carson the 1600 title. The Senators are hoping for a little magic this weekend, too.
Bradshaw would prefer to run anchor, but is comfortable leading off, too. He believes he's capable of running a 1:56 or 1:57 which would get Carson off to a great start.
"We were talking about it today, and if we all run our best, we could be at 8 minutes and down where Cenetennial runs.
"Last week I had three events that day. This time I only have one event so I should just be able to take off."
Cummings is suffering from a blister on his right foot, but he thinks he'll be ready to roll on Friday.
"It happened last week when I went to run my opening 800," Cummings said. "It's not too bad now. The track gets hot and it tends to burn when that happens.
"We're going for the school record If we get 8 or 8:01 we'll win. Taylor can run under 200, and so can Corey. If Zach and I run about 2:01 or 2:02 we should be fine. If we go out dedicated and run hard, I think we can win it."
Heinz admitted that it might be easier to win the gold than get to 8:01.
"Both are very important, but it would be bigger to win," he said. " We're each going to have to take a second or two off our times. I think we can do it."
Reid and Bradshaw will be teaming with Dakota Baker and Clint Page in the 1600. Reid ran a 50.5 last leg to give the Senators the victory. He passed three runners in the last 10 meters of the race.
The Senators come in with a PR of 3:27, fourth-fastest among the qualifiers. Arbor View ran a 3:22 last week and two other schools ran in the 3:24s.
Page knows it will be a tough road ahead.
"We're excited to run," he said. "We're all going to have to take a second off our times. The coaches have prepared us to peak right now. We all need to run the times we're supposed to run."

Important Note Regarding Atlas GP38-2's
The January '16 shipment of GP38-2's finally arrived -- late and missing more than 1/2 of the announced SKU #'s.
The listing below accurately reflects those locos that are on hand and ready for shipment. Most are in very limited supply.
If you reserved anything still marked as "Reserv" -- they are still pending and will be shipped when released by Atlas. We regret the delays and possible "double shipping". It makes additional work for us ... but please understand we cannot ship what is not available. Thank you for your understanding and patience in this matter.

Businesses cutting trees in Dorchester County will now have the option to pay for the county to replace them rather than doing it themselves.
Dorchester County Council unanimously approved a "Fee in Lieu of Planting Trees Requirement for Mitigation" ordinance at its meeting Monday.
The fee will allow businesses an alternative method for mitigating tree removal during the construction process. And it will give the county some leeway in where to replant trees.
Previously, if a property developer cut down a protected tree during construction he was required to replant a tree on the property as mitigation.
The motion to adopt the fee was one of three changes in the county's tree protection policy.
At the April 7 council meeting, the Planning, Development and Building Committee voted to amend the current Zoning and Land Development Standards section under the Tree and Canopy Protection Standards, to loosen restrictions on single family residences and tighten restrictions on developers.
As a part of changing developers' restrictions, the updated ordinance implements a new "tree bank" system as part of its Tree Planting Plan.
According to the plan, when a developer cuts down a protected tree and does not replant as mitigation, the developer will be charged a fee. The fees will be deposited into the tree bank account to be used only for replacing trees in public county spaces.
Protected trees are 15 inches or greater in diameter at breast height.
In a unanimous vote, the fee was set at $200 per caliper-inch at the Monday meeting, as recommended by the planning and zoning department.
The council also unanimously voted to give third and final reading to the updated Tree and Canopy Protection Standards, with one additional amendment, and the Tree Planting Plan ordinances.
Councilman David Chinnis, chairman of the PDB Committee, said the new fee would ensure new trees would be replanted by developers and the county.
Councilman Jay Byars said he approved of the changes.
"Before, they might have replanted in an industrial park where not many people will see (the trees), but if we replant we'll be able to put treescaping on roadways and other public right-of-ways."

Exemplification Essay: Reckless Driving
Audience: Drivers of all kinds (cars, motorcycles, trucks, buses, etc.)
Tone: Informative, factual, and concerned
Thesis: Reckless drivers who cause serious road accidents should be punished severely before re-entering the roads or face the death penalty.
Pattern of Development: Exemplification
Organizational Approach: Emphatic approach
B. Factors affecting driving performance
2. Drugs, alcohol, and cell phones
Reckless driving continues to be a growing concern daily to all those who occupy the roads. Too often, we learn about unfortunate victims in vehicular accidents that could have been avoided. Many offenders are punished for traffic violations but are allowed to continue driving. Reckless drivers who cause serious road accidents should be punished severely before reentering the roads or face the death penalty.
Driving in California is a privilege, not a right. According to the DMV, teenagers as a group have more accidents than most other drivers averaging twice as many accidents as adult drivers, while driving half as many miles. Furthermore, the DMV claims that the teenage accident rate per mile is four times as great as that of adult drivers. According to California's Compulsory Financial Responsibility Law, if new or young drivers fail to have acceptable financial responsibility and have an accident, the

I once read an interview with Terry Nation, who created the daleks, in which he stated that the inspiration for the daleks came when he saw a woman wearing a hoop dress. The gliding walk struck him as spooky and this thought led on to the creation of the classic monster.
It certainly ought to be possible to make this dress. The hat might be a problem though.

About Me

- Hi, I'm a Master of Wine (MW) having passed in 1997. I have worked in wine education, mostly, but also retail and consultancy. I was a member of the Council of the Institute of Masters of Wine (IMW) from 2008 to 2014 and was also a member of the Events, Trips and Governance Committees. I now work for the Wicklow Wine Company. Having had problems with potentially libelous comments from unidentifiable posters, I now require that if you post a comment, you must identify yourself properly or it won't be published. Please note that I do not review products or services on request so kindly don't ask. I value my independence and I believe my readers (few that they may be) do so also.

The apparent price of wine...
A few weeks ago John Wilson wrote a piece for the IrishTimes in relation to the price of wine in Ireland vis-à-vis other countries. In it, he stated that generally wine in Ireland is more expensive than other markets and he used Sweden, Canada, Australia, France, Denmark and the UK as comparators.
While it made decent reading I would take issue with a number of aspects – John failed to take into account economies of scale, different trade channels as well as not really looking at a simple question – is wine more or less expensive in Ireland now than ever before?

Thank you so very much....
A trip like this is a costly thing, for all concerned. Every MW on the trip paid GBP 750 to be there as well as flights to and from Australia. Our sponsors in Australia all paid varying sums of money to cover wines, venues, food etc. There's also the cost of time off work and away from family. Since we have paid we have a right to be critical of the wines we taste and what we hear but that in no way diminishes our gratitude to our hosts.

> Hard Chrome for Colt
August 20, 2011, 05:24 PM
Do you think sending a 70s Colt DS out for hard Chrome would ruin the value of the gun? I am not a gun collecter but a gun user. The blue already has some wear.

you don't want to chrome a gun, if you shoot it it will turn a bright blue color.
chrome doesn't have a very high heat tollerance, thats why they nickel plate guns instead of chroming them.

August 20, 2011, 06:18 PM
Yes, refinishing it will harm the value, except in rare cases where the finish is almost completely gone.
That said, you will never recoup the cost of the refinish, regardless.
My rule of thumb is I refinish guns only when the continued use of the firearm in the manner I wish to use it will, or is likely to, result in actual damage to the workings of the arm. I have a Sig P220 that is close to that now. Almost no finish left on the slide from years of carry in all weather conditions.
That said, a little holster wear on a DS I see as a badge of honor from actual use. I would not refinish such an arm.
That said, it is your gun to use and enjoy how you see fit. If you see it as an investment, do not refinish. If you see it as a tool or toy, do what will bring you the most use and pleasure.

Not so much with Hard Chrome. Gives it more of a matte stainless look, and does not react to heat, at least not on the guns I have seen, and I owned a S&W M38 that had this finish.
August 20, 2011, 07:08 PM
I still wouldn't use chrome hard or not, I've seen to many "chrome pimp guns" that turned out to be a bright blue.
The pimps usually think that the blue is cooler any way.
If you took it to a place that does electroplating you could get it done in nickel and it would probably add to the resale value.
August 20, 2011, 07:47 PM

Hard Chrome is a VERY good, and rust and wear resistant gun finish. This is definitely NOT the bright bumper chrome type finish you are thinking of.
EDIT TO ADD: Check out this website for hard chrome examples and info

I've shot the heck out of a bunch of my pistols that were eventually refinished in HC (Tripp in my case), and none of them have turned blue.
August 20, 2011, 07:56 PM
I once had a Hensley & Gibbs 4 cavity gang mold for casting 230 grain .45ACP bullets hard chromed.
It cast a LOT of bullets, and while the finish is slightly discolored with grayish areas, it's not a blue color.
Having your Colt hard chromed plated will "probably" lower the value. However, if the finish is worn, it has no real collector value so hard chroming it may actually raise the value to a potential buyer who likes hard chrome.
One advantage, you can carry and shoot the gun for years with no further deterioration of the gun.
August 20, 2011, 08:54 PM
^ This.
If you are planning on keeping it and carrying it, hard chrome is an excellent option. I have seen several hundred hard use, hard chromed guns and have never seen this "bluing" effect reported above, so I would not be deterred by this poster's experience - something must have been wrong with the plating process in that case, methinks.
August 20, 2011, 11:13 PM
Man listen to dfariswheel !
I still have Hard Chromed revolvers from the late 70s that look pretty darn good after being to hell and back for 30 years. A good plater puts them back together sweet also. I couldn't think of anything sweeter than a 70s Dick Special hard Chromed by Metal life or Tripps.

Pure nonsense. Learn the difference between the industrial hard chrome used as a firearms finish and cheap decorative bumper chrome.
Personally, I really like hard chrome. It offers a very high surface hardness, is very resistant to wear, is virtually impervious to corrosion, offers increased lubricity and is very easy to clean up. Had this one done, among other things, about 12yrs ago.
Satin nickel on the left, matte hard chrome on the right.

Somebody's been watching too many episodes of "Sons of Guns". A revolver isn't a WWI vintage machine gun and it would be nearly impossible to get it to a temperature that would even remotely affect the chrome by simply firing it.
August 21, 2011, 10:57 PM
I like the hard Chrome protection, My Colt is a tool, If I have to go for leather I want the person to see my weapon

August 21, 2011, 11:29 PM
Do you want a gun to collect or to use. Any refinish will about destroy collector value.
IMHO, I don't like shiny guns for carry. I always felt that at night I might as well carry a neon sign with an arrow pointing at me as carry a nickel or chrome gun. But to each his own.
August 22, 2011, 01:38 AM
An already finish worn DS is not a rare item, nor is it likely to soar in collector value. Refinish if you like. It's a 400-500 buck gun as it is. You can throw 200-300 at it to refinish it. It will still be a 400-500 buck gun. The worst is you are out a couple hundred $$, but you will have what you want...I say go for it.
Personally, I love shiny guns. I don't see what it matters for a CC piece. By the time the rubber hits the road and I have to pull it out, I could care less if my intended target sees it flash in the night. Once it's gone that far, the next flash he sees could be from the muzzle.

Have you ever checked out this finish option? http://www.robarguns.com/precision_coatings.htm
Just thinking this might make it better than chrome
August 22, 2011, 11:47 AM
NP3 is excellent and well-proven. It's nickel and teflon based so it is very corrosion resistant and slick. Although it won't be as hard and won't wear as long as hard chrome. Everything is a compromise of sorts.
IMHO, I don't like shiny guns for carry. I always felt that at night I might as well carry a neon sign with an arrow pointing at me as carry a nickel or chrome gun. But to each his own.
Ever wear a white shirt?
August 22, 2011, 12:13 PM
I would not do it.
But it is not like there are not a bunch of 3rd generation Detective Specials.
Depending on the wear of the blue, it might lower the value...which only matters if you decide to sell it.
If it is a keeper...chrome away.
August 22, 2011, 08:23 PM
Go with the brushed hard chrome. Better looking than the matte but certainly not shiny. Looks like nice Stainless steel. A good HC job smooths it up and lasts indefintely with little maintainence.
August 23, 2011, 09:01 AM
I would definitely recommend hard chrome plating, especially for a CCW. I have had a number of guns refinished by Ron Mahovsky, and after years of use, both at the range and out in the field, they all still look as new as the day I got them back from him. A high quality finish that will last a very long time, and will look great doing it.

All good comments,I am near 50 and have no plans to sell this gun, I am thinking of sending her out to cylinder & slide to bob the hammer then to the hard chrome, I'll skin that dick with a Speed scabbard from Ken Null.
Like the man said if you see shiny steel I'm thinking bout puttin some lead in ya.
August 23, 2011, 08:00 PM
if you bob the hammer render the weapon DAO.
To not have a secure way to decock is dangerous.
August 23, 2011, 08:01 PM
I don't think you can go wrong with c&s
August 24, 2011, 10:33 AM
If it's DAO, why would you need to decock?
August 24, 2011, 06:47 PM
The gun is not DAO. He was talking about making it DAO if and when the hammer is bobbed.
August 25, 2011, 12:40 AM
I guess I missed where the OP mentioned that the gun was DAO.
Just warning that a bobbed gun should be DAO. To not do so does not allow the gun to be safely decocked.
August 25, 2011, 02:49 AM
I guess I missed where the OP mentioned that the gun was DAO.
No, you didn't....I missed putting the not in my last reply and have now edited it.
August 25, 2011, 09:50 AM
if you bob the hammer, render the weapon DAO.
I must've misunderstood this sentence. Should've been a comma in there. ;)
August 25, 2011, 10:30 AM
I have owned and would own again a non DAO bobbed revolver. I just didn't shoot it single action.
This is one of those "do as I say" things.
All those guys that had Fitz chop up their duns did not DAO them. It is called "disipline"

January 11, 2012, 12:09 PM
That Python is nice!!! :what:
January 12, 2012, 04:09 AM
Hard chrome is a great finish for handguns. It is harder than the metal underneath, is more rust resistant than blue, holster wear will just polish it won't remove the finish. The hard chromed parts will not wear nearly as quickly as unplated. Having said all that I'm not a big fan of hard chrome on revolvers. The reason is the cylinder flutes are much harder to clean and look bad after just a few rounds. For that reason I like nickel better for revolvers, it's much slicker and easy to clean up.
Edit to add I'm talking about the satin look hard chrome, I imagine the high polish hard chrome some shops do would act about like nickel. Also I've never seen hard chrome turn blue in the about 40 years I've been building guns and having them hard chromed mostly by Metaloy.
January 12, 2012, 07:34 AM
The reason is the cylinder flutes are much harder to clean and look bad after just a few rounds.
That's odd because I've found it far easier to clean than any other finish. Stuff usually just wipes off.

Welcome to my website. Here you'll find quality photographs of natural places, parks, and city scenes in San Francisco, California, as well as some of the unique events that take place there. For your convenience, images are grouped in galleries by type, though some may appear in more than one gallery; a heron might appear in nature and reflections as well as bird life, for example.
Once you find an image you like, you can choose prints in a variety of sizes and paper types, with quality matting and framing in a variety of colors; or choose canvas, acrylic, or metal prints. Fine Art America will fulfill and ship your order quickly, and they offer a 30-day return policy if anything turns out to be not to your liking.
About myself, I started taking pictures as a hobby when I was young, back in the days of film, with a focus on nature. I took classes and workshops now and then, and graduated to newer cameras over the years, finally going digital in 2007. Recently I've taken classes at San Francisco's city college art campus, and have exhibited there and at art galleries in the North Beach neighborhood. The beauty of nature continues to inspire me, along with the City�s unique landmarks.
If you like unique photos of wildlife and park and city settings, I hope you'll take some time to browse the galleries for something that catches your eye. Quality photographs are always collectable and they make good gifts for birthdays, holidays, or other special occasions.

Extra point for value.
Agree with comments re crisp acidity. Lots of fruitiness adds an 'off dry' feel, despite the 'dry' label.
A very good value for a house riesling.
Nice and dry, crisp, citrus with great aroma.

Great summer sipper.
Peaches, apricots, and green apple on the nose. Crisp acidity and plenty of fruit, but pretty basic.

Does the Chrysler 4.0 liter that you can get in the 2008 Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan have a timing chain or belt?
ngpost1 wrote:
Belt. That engine is based on the 3.5L v6, so it shares the same belt arrangement. The good news is that the 3.5 very rarely breaks a timing belt, even when people go past the recommended change mileage.
The other good news is if the belt does break before the replacement is due on the belt. The lifetime powertrain warranty would kick in

That isn't going to help people buying them used, which is going to affect resale value I would think - is this an interference engine or not?
I have never seen a timing belt break on one of these vehicles due to mileage. This engine does not have a free wheeling valve train
Ted Mittelstaedt wrote:
Its not freewheeling (the first-gen 3.5 was, but the 2nd gen and 4.0 are not). However, it really does appear that the belt nearly never breaks on these engines. Its sorta like the opposite of the Spirit R/T engine that ate a belt every 10,000 miles, I guess ;-) I've seen one 3.5L belt fail due to extreme neglect (well over 150k miles) combined with the water pump failing and chewing up the belt. But I've also seen a waterpump fail and the belt *not* fail despite getting smoking-hot on the seized water pump pulley. The engine started to overheat due to the stopped waterpump and the driver (my wife) pulled over before the belt or the engine was damaged.

MARC 44/S/TPD/I8 Ophthalmic Glasses
These sunglasses complement your look with an accessory that is a cut above the rest. True to the Edel-Optics motto "SEE AND BE SEEN", you are on a par with celebrities, impressing in every environment. Would another colour not be a better match for your favourite outfit? Check also the other styles of MARC 44/Sin our 2015, and 2016 Marc Jacobs range.
The unisex Marc Jacobs model makes no distinction between men and women. Full rim frames completely enclose the lenses within the frame. For a convinced eyeglass wearer, any other frame style is ruled out, with very few exceptions. Aviator eyewear has always been one of the summer must-haves. It is a timeless eye-catcher and tops the hit list of the "classics". Plastic is a very lightweight and flexible material. This ensures a long life and a high level of comfort. Brown is the perfect alternative for those who find black too high in contrast. Brown flatters the face unobtrusively. The fact that the colour grey matches everything, also applies to sunglass lenses. They suit everything in your wardrobe and never go out of fashion. This brand of sunglasses, of course, also provides your eyes with optimum UV400 protection.
If you press the button "order with prescription lenses', our digital dispensing optician will install the lenses in the original tint or as you wish. Your dioptre values are the only thing we require from you.
The model has already been ordered and will shortly be back in stock. If you order now, you will get the reduced price and once the goods arrive, we will send you your new Marc Jacobs on the same day. And because Edel-Optics is a paradise for bargain hunters, you can get this top model at an incredibly low price. What is labelled as "in the sale" at other online shops, is for us "all-day-everyday" prices.

Cincinnati Reds ace Johnny Cueto is on target to rejoin the rotation next week after making his second injury rehabilitation start. The right-hander has been on the disabled list since April 15 because of a strained muscle in his upper right arm. Barring a setback, he'll likely start one of the Reds' games early next week against the New York Mets, manager Dusty Baker said Wednesday.
