Personal Campaign
Shannon is gathering 10 signatures to
Close Down 'soldiers Deserve To Die' Page On Facebook.
I understand freedom of speech and for the most part am all for it, but my freedom to live will always override my desire to say what I feel. We have the opportunity to live because of the men and women that are out their, offering their lives for ours. Whether you agree with what they are doing or not doesn't discount the sacrifice they are making and because of that they deserve our respect. You don't have to support their cause, but to actively start a sight that promotes the wish for soldier's to die is criminal. Words have energy and the anger a sight like this invokes isn't helpful for anyone. Please support my quest to see this site taken down!!

9 Housewarming Gifts for Newlyweds

It'd be a fun alternative to just a wedding photo in a frame, and portraits are really growing in popularity in interiors. Be sure to read some tips on how to commission one, first. 2.

They could always hang anything extra on the wall. 3. Salt and pepper shakers We feel like this is something too small to have been included on a gift registry. And it's a fun way to leave them with a piece of your personality for their home! We've got lots of ideas: modern ones, cute and kitschy ones and ones that will make you smile. 4. Stationary/thank you cards They'll probably have a lot of them to write if they had a lot of gifts given to them, and it never hurts to have extra around. Extra points if you have them personalized. 5. Supplies for indoor gardens Unless you know for sure they don't like green things, a setup for an indoor garden would make a great gift for any sized home. And they have so many awesome options these days! Check out our Marketplace page for indoor gardens. 6. Cozy throw blankets It's hard to imagine while in the throes of the hottest summer ever, but at some point we'll want to snuggle up with a cozy blanket next to a fireplace. Give them a head start with a nice one. 7. A coupon for free help hanging art Offer to show up one day with a hammer, level and other tools to help them hang an art collage or just give them a second opinion as to where art should go.

Videogame publisher lost $162 million in '07
British vidgame publisher Sci, parent company of Eidos Interactive, is laying off 25% of its staff amid a major restructuring after negotiations to be acquired fell through.
News came as Sci reported dismal financial results for the past six months of 2007, during which it lost some $162 million on revenue of $145 million. Sales were down 2% despite double-digit growth for the industry overall.
Along with the layoffs, Sci is canceling 14 projects in development and shifting to a studio-based model that will focus on core franchises such as "Tomb Raider." It also is forming a new division, Eidos Play, to develop casual and Web-based games.
"Our quality has slipped below acceptable standards. And through disappointing game development and working within an ineffective operating structure, we are failing to realize the commercial return our creative ability and our shareholders demand," the company said in a statement. "Our infrastructure is too big and expensive for the scale of the business."
Sci announced in January that talks with several unnamed suitors had broken off. Like other midsize publishers such as THQ, Midway and Take-Two, which is fighting off a $2 billion acquisition bid by Electronic Arts, Sci is struggling to compete against much bigger industry players as the cost of making and marketing games has rapidly risen.
News sent Sci stock tumbling 14% on the London Stock Exchange.
That's bad news for Warner Bros., which owns a 10% stake in Sci and distributes its games in the U.S.

Red Cross on hunt for type-A blood
Thai Red Cross Society is calling on people with blood of the A-type to make donations as it only has about 400 units in its stock.
The agency's director Soisa-ang Pikulsod told a seminar Wednesday that so far, only 80 per cent of the donated blood underwent testing via the Nucleic Acid Amplification Technology (NAT). Hence, she said, in order to protect patients, Red Cross was going have all its centres use the NAT tests.
She said NAT testing on 3,758,833 units from 2009-2012 showed 34 units being HIV-positive, 11 had Hepatitis C and 1,489 had Hepatitis B.
She also explained that the agency refused to take blood from people of the homosexual orientation due to international regulations, not sexual bias.

Illustration by Bob AulThis afternoon I parked my car on a Laguna side street, about a foot and a half back from where a driveway broke the curb, with plenty of room behind me. When I came back to my car, I found a Wells Fargo deposit envelope under my windshield wiper with the following message written on it: "Pull up or back but DON'T EVER take up two parking spots around here again!!!"
Now, I don't think anyone reading this needs to be told what an obvious pussy you are to have taken the time to find another parking space, find a pen and some paper, and write a note like this. My first instinct was to look for your car, enclose a spoon in the envelope, and put it on your windshield with instructions to eat my ass. But what really bears pointing out is that, after living in Orange County for three years, getting an empty, asinine threat for no obvious reason was completely unsurprising. After all, if there were no empty, emasculated posturing in OC, there'd be no posturing at all here. One week from now my life will shift 3,000 miles eastward (and, presumably 30,000 years forward in evolution), so I don't have much time to sum up my feelings toward this county and all the spoiled, steroid-addled cocksuckers that live here, but here goes: Go to the mall, then go fuck yourselves.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Maya - A DoubleTree By Hilton Hotel Long Beach
Love the Views
I have stayed here three times and look forward to returning again. Definitely request a water view room. It's a pleasant walk to the (overpriced!) Queen Mary attraction, and we also walked past the tennis courts, across the bridge to the new Long Beach marina area featuring the aquarium, shopping, a multi-plex and Bubba Gumps (a fun theme restaurant). Long Beach Transit offers water-bus service from the hotel dock. It's fun and very cheap, but it's seasonal service and the waits can be long.
Hotel rooms have wireless internet access, and the balconies, sea breezes and high ceilings combine to create a very airy, relaxing feel.
Comfort & Cruise Port Convenience
We booked the Park & Sail package for our Carnival Cruise during Easter break in April. This included a room for the night before our embarkation, breakfast, parking for the cruise duration, and a shuttle to the Port. Parking at the Port is $10/day, so instead our $70 parking fee went towards the cost of the room ($160) at the Coast. We had a room overlooking the water w/ a view of the Queen Mary. The next morning we saw our Carnival ship dock next to the Queen Mary. Our room was comfortable, clean, and spacious. The hot/cold breakfast buffet was good and the hotel location can't be beat. We could have walked over to the Port, but since we had luggage, we shuttled over instead. The shuttle drivers and staff are very friendly and professional. Our car was parked in the hotel's parking lot (outdoors) w/ no problems. We would stay here again if we cruise out of Long Beach again.
Good and OK
Stayed June 18-22
I liked this hotel. Let's do the good first- location was great! View of the Quenn Mary and the city. Pool was wonderful...loved sitting out, reading, tanning and meeting new people. Food was pretty good and the staff was really great! Loved that the Passport bus service came to hotel...take it all over LB. Sit out at the the restaurant- great view
Not So Good- I had to change rooms because my TV wouldn't turn on- after the 3rd time, I asked that I be moved to a water view room and they did so without hesitation and no extra cost. Room service is slow. They should have staff checking the pool if people want drinks or food- waited 30 minutes for a drink. Once we befriended the staff, anything we wanted within 5 minutes. rooms were ok- carpet could use some help in the 2 rooms I was in. Overall, I liked it and would go back.
Great Experience at West Coast Long Beach
We stayed at West Coast Long Beach June 5-7 and we had a great time. The hotel is located right near the water, and the room we stayed in had a balcony with a great view of the water. The hotel has a "conference resort" feel to it, and would be a very good choice if you want a laid back atmosphere. The hotel is made up of several "pods" of rooms, with each pod going up 5 floors. Access to the room is by an outside elevator. One thing we did notice is that to get to the elevator, you had to climb about 10 stairs. This would pose a problem for people who are handicapped, but in all fairness, they may have access to other pods that do not require climbing of stairs. Our room was spacious, but the bathroom was a little small. We honestly didn't mind as we spend more time in the room. It was clean and had no smells. The room had a closet to store your luggage, a king-size bed, couch, table and two chairs. You had plenty of room to walk around and not feel cramped. It also offered a coffee pot with coffee and a small refrigerator which came in handy for us. We could see the Queen Mary and the Spruce Goose from our room, it was about a 5-7 minute walk. Behind the hotel there are walking paths which stretch around the water which is nice to walk or jog. Across the water we could see Shoreline Village, a nice little area of restaurants and shops. They have a restaurant on property which is nice. There was no construction at the hotel. We stayed two nights and had a great time. We would definitely recommend this hotel if you want a laid back, conference resort type of stay. It was a great experience.
Best place to stay in Long Beach
In May 2004, my wife and I had the opportunity to stay at the Coast Hotel, Long Beach before we sailed on Carnival. We saw several nice hotels in downtown Long Beach, like the Westin, Hilton, and Renaissance. My question is-why would you want to stay downtown when you can enjoy a great room with a balcony only a few feet from the waterfront. The location and view are outstanding, the landscaping very well manicured, the pool is great, and the food in the restaurant is good as well! However, best of all, the staff is professional and extremely courteous. This was our first stay, yet we felt like we were family. Michael the front desk manager was one of the most professional and efficient customer service employees that I have ever met. Quidos to you, Michael. All in all it's the best place to stay in Long Beach-why stay anywhere else!!
Great Location
Live in the area and believe this to be one of the best locations of you are staying in the area. Dont know about the hotel itself because I have never stayed here. As far as location goes it is one of the few true waterfront properties. Not beachfront, waterfront. It is in a harbor. Walking distance to Queen Mary and some great restaurants.
Would recommend for those visiting from out of town.
Relaxing and Hospitable Hotel
Very pleased with Hotel location on the Queensway Bay front at Long Beach, with just a short stroll along the shoreline to The Queen Mary where you charged $10 per night car parking! Its free the The Coast!
Rooms very clean and comfortable with good sized balconies/patios, plus excellent facilities - TV, fridge, coffee maker and fresh towels every day. Comfortable beds. Reception staff very helpful especially David the Concierge. Good resturant and bar service. Pleasant patio outside restuarant for balmy evening drinks and snacks. Well kept grounds - grass cutting starts at 6.30am! Good swimming pool plus clean walkways.
Definitely stay again.
Don't overlook this hotel!
This is a fine hotel in a great, quiet location, with rooms at a reasonable rate. The rooms are well-appointed, roomy, and clean (our carpet was a bit old, but clean). The grounds are immaculate, the pool clean, and the hotel is just two blocks from the Queen Mary. A free shuttle bus to downtown Long Beach (3 minute drive) and Belmont Shores runs by the hotel 2-4 times/hour. The hotel is on the water and has wonderful views of downtown Long Beach and the marina (10-15 minute walk). And last but not least, the staff is friendly and helpful.
Great place to stay!
Very pleased with this hotel. We had booked this hotel overnight on our way to Catalina Island from Canada. We were pleasently surprised at the cleanliness, well-decorated rooms, heated pool, and food (and service) at the attached resturant. People all very friendly and helpful. Very short walk on the coast to the Queen Mary Hotel (nice tour of this place). Ferry to Calatina Island close by. Nice and quiet right on the water opposite the main city bustle. Reasonabley priced, too. Would specifically ask next time for a room facing the water as view would have been much better.
Very Nice Affortable Hotel
Very Nice Hotel, got a weekly rate at $45/night. Know some that got a few nights at $40/night. Older structure, but room redone. Frig & Coffee in room but would be nice to have a microwave. Close to Long Beach, on the water, and quiet. Nice Grounds. Very Close to Queen Mary. I would stay there again. They are still working on updating rooms, but are doing it one building at a time so you wouldn't be in a building being refurb.

Taking the Cannoli
How Hollywood revived Italian-American identity, for better or worse
It has been 40 years since the "The Godfather" drew fans into the iconic saga of the Corleone family, reinventing the mob-movie genre and embedding the phrase "I'll make him an offer he can't refuse" in the American idiom.
But the blockbuster film and its two sequels, with more than $1 billion in revenues, are about far more than crime and punishment to Tom Santopietro, the author of "The Godfather Effect." Mr. Santopietro, a theater manager who has written books on Frank Sinatra, Doris Day and Barbra Streisand, saw "The Godfather: Part II" (1974) as a college sophomore, and it rocked his world: The image of a young Vito Corleone quarantined at Ellis Island stirred a sense of identity that had eluded him for years—the scene instantly connecting him to the Italian roots on his father's side of the family.
Part memoir, part devotional film essay and part reflection on the meaning of ethnicity in American life, "The Godfather Effect" purports to define how the "Godfather" movies, along with the 1969 Mario Puzo novel from which they were adapted, reflected the "madness, glory and failure" of the American dream. By exploring that dream in distinctly Italian-American terms, the movies "succeeded in delivering nothing less than the Italianization of American culture." In other words, they were so cool that everyone wanted to seem a little Italian.
The Godfather Effect
By Tom Santopietro
St. Martin's, 326 pages, $25.99
"The Godfather Effect" sprinkles in history, gossip and social commentary to examine how the film franchise begat the good ("The Sopranos" on HBO), the bad (the sort of stereotyping that has prompted protests from Italian-American groups, though they also complained about "The Sopranos") and the ugly (reality shows like "Mob Wives" and "Jersey Shore"). Unfortunately, Mr. Santopietro relies entirely on second- and third-hand anecdotes about the making of the three "Godfather" movies, essentially doing a clip job from previous articles and books. There is also nothing new here from the principals; he uses quotes from filmed interviews with director Francis Ford Coppola and cinematographer Gordon Willis that anyone can watch on the bonus tracks that come with The Coppola Restoration, a remastered DVD set of the films released in 2008.
Mr. Santopietro is at his best and most authentic describing his own family, starting with the journey of his paternal grandparents from southern Italy during the great wave of emigration to the U.S. They gradually assimilated as shopkeepers in Connecticut but never lost the flavor of the old country. As a child, he had found his grandparents' foreignness, their accents and clothing, and their third-grade education slightly embarrassing; his sensibilities had more in common with his mother's starchy WASP forebears.
But the Coppola films, he says, helped him understand the obstacles the immigrants had faced, the prejudice they had encountered and the hard work that had seen them through the Depression and into the mainstream of American life. The movies' beautifully filmed scenes in Italy and the re-creation of New York's Little Italy gave him "sense memory" of what it must have been like; he found a new appreciation for his grandfather, who arrived in the U.S. at 13, landing at Ellis Island, and named his daughter Emma, after Emma Lazarus, the author of the poem found at the base of the Statue of Liberty. And Mr. Santopietro better understood how members of the next generation, including his father, never completely outgrew their Depression-era beginnings, even as they became successful. (His father was a doctor with a thriving medical practice but always worried about money.)
Anyone with a similar background will relate to this story; my father's parents made the same journey from Italy through Ellis Island, my mother was of Irish descent, and my brothers and I grew up as American as apple pie. Our only direct exposure to our Italian heritage was a grandmother who canned plum tomatoes from her garden and used the Italian pronunciation of my first name, though, like Mr. Santopietro, we had a raft of aunts and uncles who managed to keep some traditions alive. We came to feel a gradual appreciation of our Italian background, and perhaps those celluloid images from "The Godfather" played some small role in that process.
The author's meticulous recounting of movie scenes and his analyses of characters' motivations can get a little tiresome. For those not versed in "Godfather" lore, the first two movies were huge successes; "Godfather II" was a sequel but also looked back to show how the Corleones came to America and entered a life of crime on the mean streets of Little Italy.
"The Godfather: Part III" came 16 years later, in 1990, and did not live up to the first two films. Mr. Santopietro finds it "a fatally flawed but ofttimes brilliant parable of redemptive failure." With a Byzantine script about misdeeds linked to the Vatican Bank, the movie was missing vital characters like the consigliere Tom Hagen (Robert Duvall), featured a regretful and aging Michael Corleone (Al Pacino), and was criticized for the decision to substitute the director's daughter, Sofia Coppola, for Winona Ryder after Ms. Ryder dropped out of the major role as Michael's daughter.
As a reporter covering Hollywood at the time for The Wall Street Journal, I happened to be on the set just as that was happening, during a week-long visit to Rome for a front-page story on the high stakes of the third "Godfather" movie for both Mr. Coppola and Paramount Pictures. It may have been my favorite reporting assignment of all time—eating at the commissary at the Cinecitta studio with actors Joe Mantegna and Andy Garcia, interviewing Mr. Coppola in his fully outfitted silver trailer on the set, and watching him put Mr. Pacino through his paces to get the perfect shot. But the story didn't end well; the movie ran over budget and behind schedule, critics found the finished product lacking, and it didn't win any of the Oscars that year, despite several nominations. Mr. Santopietro sticks to the view that it has a poignant quality that deepens with viewing, so maybe I'll watch it again.
Mr. Santopietro theorizes that the Corleones' appeal was part of the zeitgeist of the 1970s, when the first two films were released: The audience rooted for murderous thugs, he says, because the characters lived by their own code of honor, defying business and government and "viewing those institutions as controlled by moral outlaws—a view of political America shared by millions of United States citizens at the time of the book's publication during the Nixon administration."
Perhaps so. But at the time the original "Godfather" film was released (in March 1972), Nixon was a few months away from a historic landslide re-election victory—and the Watergate burglary hadn't even happened yet. Whether Americans generally thought of "business" as something to be defied is hard to know. But in the late 1960s and early 1970s Americans were vexed by high crime rates and broad social upheaval and may have seen the "Godfather" ethos—with its emphasis on hierarchy, tradition and order—as a kind of alternative worldview.
More likely, fans simply viewed "The Godfather" for what it was: great escapist entertainment with perennial themes. In Mr. Coppola's own words, it was "a romance about a king with three sons . . . a film about power."
Mr. Santopietro perhaps rightly worries that the new caricatures of Italian-Americans found in the popular media are as bad as the old images of Italian organ grinders. But when it comes to the continuing appeal of Italian mobsters like Tony Soprano, he aptly quotes Italian-American author Bill Tonelli: "There are many more Italian-American CPAs than hit men, not that I want to watch a cable TV series about accountants."
Ms. Landro is an assistant managing editor of The Wall Street Journal.

For decades now, everyone has speculated about not only when Penn State football coach Joe Paterno would retire from coaching, but also eventually who would be the guy to fill his legendary shoes.
Yet Paterno has never uttered the R word, and many have wondered if he ever will.
However, could the recent scandal at Penn State do what Father Time has been unable to do and force Paterno off of the Penn State sideline?
By scandal, I'm referring to former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky who was indicted by a grand jury on sexual abuse charges, which connected him to a number of incidents dating back to 1995 and as recent as 2005.
Sandusky, who retired from Penn State in 1999, faces 40 counts on charges including involuntary deviant sexual intercourse with a minor less than 16 years old, aggravated indecent assault, indecent assault of a minor less than 13 years old and endangering the welfare of a child, among others.
Several high profile Penn State figures, including Paterno testified against the grand jury appeared before the grand jury during the investigation.
The press release from the Pennsylvania Attorney General paints an ugly picture.
Even uglier has been the lack of action taken by the university since the incident, as Yahoo Sports Dan Wetzel breaks down.
As for Paterno's involvement, some may say he did the right thing by reporting Sandusky to his superior in Tim Curley, who is facing perjury charges himself.
Paterno released a statement to The Patriot News in Harrisburg that said, "If true, the nature and amount of charges made are very shocking to me and all Penn Staters. While I did what I was supposed to with the one charge brought to my attention, like anyone else involved I can't help but be deeply saddened these matters are alleged to have occurred."
Yet, Curley worked for Paterno much more than Paterno worked for him, so Paterno could have called the police himself and the fact that he didn't could ultimately cost him his job.
It's a far worse charge than anything any other college program has ever come under. Penn State knowingly let a child predator practically live for free on its campus and did nothing to stop it.
Paterno has survived a lot through his legendary career, including a span where it seemed half of his team broke the law, but to save face, heads are going to have to roll at Penn State, and that could include Paterno.
Sandusky was once viewed as a possible replacement for Paterno. If this is ultimately the knife in the back for Paterno, let's take a look at seven guys who could ultimately replace him.

BANGOR, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Bangor police are searching for a man they say robbed Gold Stars Cleaners back on Wednesday January 12.
Police say the man is 5 foot 8 inches tall, Caucasian with a medium build. He is approximately 50 or more years old and his skin appeared to be "weathered." He had no glasses and no visible tattoos in the photos police provided. Police say at the time the suspect was wearing a dark outer jacket with a dark (possibly) black hoodie underneath with blue jeans and a black, knit hat.
If you know this man, have heard talk of this robbery, have seen this man walking in that area (Third and Union Street in Bangor) or if you have any information, you are urged to contact Bangor police.
BANGOR, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- The Bangor School Department and the Bangor Police Department became aware of limited and fragmented information regarding a rumored threat to the Bangor High School.
BANGOR, Maine (AP) -- A Maine man accused of mailing cyanide to an Englishman is due in court to face new charges.
Investigators say Sidney Kilmartin of Windham advertised and mailed a substance he claimed was cyanide to several suicidal people. The substance was actually Epsom salt.
But they say he mailed the real thing to Andrew Denton of Hull, England, to keep him from telling investigators about his moneymaking scheme. Denton used the cyanide to take his life.
Kilmartin, who was due in federal court Tuesday, was originally indicted on charges of mailing injurious articles resulting in death. A grand jury last month returned indictments on new charges of witness tampering and witness retaliation.
DOVER-FOXCROFT, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- The accused murderer that kept police at bay for 68 days appeared in court Monday morning to enter a plea.
Robert Burton is charged with murdering his ex-girlfriend and leading state police on the longest manhunt in Maine history entered a not guilty plea.
Burton pleaded not guilty to killing his ex-girlfriend Stephanie Ginn Gebo in Parkman this past June.
Burton also pleaded not guilty to possessing a firearm even though he's a convicted felon.
Both Gebo and Burton's fathers were in the courtroom during his arraignment.
After the arraignment, a State Police detective brought Burton's defense attorney and state prosecutors through the house where Gebo was found dead.
Neither Burton's defense nor state prosecutors commented on today's proceedings.
BRISTOL, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Police said a Bristol man has been charged with allegedly embezzling funds from two different companies.
51-year-old Joseph Corson was arrested by the Lincoln County Sheriff's Department and charged with class B theft.
Officials said Corson was the target of an investigation after the owner of two companies in Bristol notices $150,000 missing from the books. Corson has been the bookkeeper for both deal Septic and McPhee Enterprises since 2001.
Police said they believe Corson embezzled the funds over a 10-year-period by regularly overpaying and making many unauthorized purchases with company funds.
Corson was arrested and later released on $25,000 bail.
BANGOR, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- Bangor police have arrested a woman who was at the scene of Tuesday night's officer-involved shooting in Bangor.
Police said Kayla Massicotte was arrested on warrant, bail violation, and possession of heroin.
Police confirm the suspect in the incident has died.
Witnesses tell NEWS CENTER that police had a vehicle pulled over when a man exited the car and ran away towards some woods. Witnesses then say they heard what they believe to be gunfire.
"He walked up with the cop, leaned against the hood, and he looked really sketchy because, all I did was see him look back twice of his shoulder and then out, not a second later, he darted through the woods. I'd say about 30 seconds later, I heard about 12 gunshots," said Ryan Wylie, who witnessed the incident.
UPDATE: Bangor Police Chief Mark Hathaway released additional details about Monday's officer-involved shooting.
Hathaway said the investigation confirmed Joshua Jozefowicz was in possession of a loaded firearm and that during the foot chase, he discharged the weapon.
Hathaway said autopsy on Jozefowicz was completed and that the examination indicated he died of multiple gunshot wounds.
Officials said the Attorney General's Office continues to investigate the case.
BANGOR, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- The Bangor Police Department have identified the man killed in Tuesday night's officer-involved shooting that happened at 1105 Hammond Street in Bangor.
Police say 23-year-old Joshua Jozefowicz, of Hancock County was the suspect killed in Tuesday's shooting.

Exi 250
Looks like XHeli is now selling an EXI 250 kit. Has anyone purchased one yet? http://www.xheli.com/pyro-250-exi-micro-helicopter.html
I was curious to find out what servos, motors, ESC's etc. people are using on this heli.
The basic kit is $99 (airframe only.) It still seems cheaper to just build a 450.
Edit: It looks like the kit is all carbon fiber and CNC on the head and tail assembly, but I can't find a link for replacement parts, yet.

in my opinion not much money is saved usually with a bargain clone kit .. most of the $$ is spent on electrics. it may in the end be alittle cheaper given the same electric setup but also in my opinion, the savings wont be worth it if the airframe isnt 100% compatible with parts and of similar quality throughout with the namebrand kit it is a clone of. Sure 99$ sounds great but if you want a decent gyro and servo tack on 200$ .. if you want a decent cyclic servo set tack on another 100$ .. if you dont have a decent radio tack on another 200-400$ .. if you want a decent esc and motor another 100$+, good lipos lets say 3, probably 150$, a good charger maybe 100$, and lets not forget the couple of little things that are not quite right so we need to upgrade with the namebrand oem pieces-another100+$ .. now if that basic 99$ clone kit isnt a beautiful copy that can interchange with original namebrand oem parts its going to be kinda lame to bolt in a grands worth of good electrics right .. dont get me wrong i think some clone kits can save you 100-200 bucks and be quite good but dont get caught up in the oh-im-going-to-get-a-cool-heli-for-99$ trap ... you can by a bunch of mystery electrics for a hundred bucks sure but dont expect it to be anything like a well setup chopper ...
Cool, sold in the US...no stress with having to have someone around to sign for that registered mail package from HK. Seems nice at $99, but that time Xheli tried to dick me over on shipping on a EXI450 order kind of sours me on getting anything from there. Maybe saving ~$10 and ordering from Hong Kong might be a better route.
Xheli does have the best deal going on a charger however...that Thunder AC6 they sell is the best thing around if you want one with a built in power supply.

Just to give a slightly different perspective
I now have 2 clone 250s - an XYS250, and a Bullet 250 (same as the Skya / EXI). I built them completely from bits that I had spare (admitedly I did de-commission my SJM180 to get the Rx for the second. The spec for the
XYS250 is ...
3 x HS-45 on cyclic
$10 noname ESC (used in Copterx 200)
$15 eBay motor (also used in Copterx 200)
$25 CNCheli Gyro (from spares box)
$18 JR S185 tail servo
I already had them all
Bullet (Skya) 250
3 x HXT900 on cyclic
$20 Hobbywing 18A ESC (from SJM180)
$30 AKE motor (from SJM180)
$25 Telebee Gyro
$15 Futaba 3110 on tail
As you can see, neither is a high spec but I have got them both in the air for a total expenditure of about $170 for the pair - obviously I had bought the gear at some stage, so it wasn't free - but all of the cost was sunken.
And how do they fly ???? - well I can only fly sports and I really can't tell the difference between them and my T250 (yep - got one of those as well). Why buy clones when I have the real thing ? Well I bought the T250 with 3 x 410 + ESC + motor - about $270 when I bought it plus $110 for the LG2100T and $35 for the DS09SCD, so a total of about $400. i feel so much happier throwing $150 of heli about rather than $400 and as I said, at my level I can't tell the difference in the flight characteristics.
Just an alternative viewpoint - have a look in those spares boxes and see what you can find

At that point I just cancelled the order and got a CopterX...better value with more metal bits and better hardware for a couple extra dollars more considering the inflated shipping on the base EXI bird with metal head/tail upgrade

the trex250 is an amazing bird and i absolutely love it. but the thought of crashing one makes me jitters.
Enter the clone. I already have a bunch of spare parts hanging around, gyro, tail servo, esc, hs65mg's. I can get one up for under $150. but that's because I already have alot the electronics.

Free shipping coupons are for $100 or more.
I've had real sucess on the EXI 450's The replacement parts are cheaper from xheli and along with $6 fiberglass blades from Hobby City, my crashes have been averaging $15. Sometimes just $5 for flybar, spindle and mainshaft if I crash in the high weeds and save the blades in time w/ the throttle hold.

Skip to comments.Study: Expiration of Bush tax cuts will hit poorest hardest
Posted on 10/07/2010 12:45:03 PM PDT by MichaelNewton
Low-income workers stand to lose the most if lawmakers fail to reach a consensus on the Bush-era tax cuts, according to a new report from the Tax Foundation.
The report states that on Jan. 1 the doubling of the child tax credit, increased standard deductions and income credits and the creation of the 10 percent tax bracket all of which primarily aimed at non-wealthy taxpayers will vanish if gridlock persists in Washington.
While wealthier taxpayers pay more in taxes and stand to lose more money if the tax cuts expire, the impact on low-income taxpayers will be far greater because they live on slimmer margins.
(Excerpt) Read more at thehill.com ...
Oops. Think Obama is even aware of this? I know my taxes will roughly double on Jan 1 and I'm already underwater.
C'mon everybody knows that the Bush tax cuts only helped the RICH! /s
Wait until the poor voters who pulled the lever for Obie Won find out their child tax credit is cut in half.
The 50% who pay no federal income tax will suffer the most. < /sarc >
No one who looks like that should ever be President.
How much did this study cost us? I am sick and tired of study after study being conducted. The tax cuts were for everyone so I imagine that everyone will feel it a bit.
Will Republicans hold together in the Senate to prevent Democrats from passing an 0bamafication of the Bush tax cuts in the lame duck session?
Will Democrats in the House who oppose raising taxes in a depression stick with Republicans to pass an across the board extension, even as none of them will be returning next session?
"Now, your insurance will be INCOME on your W2's!
One of the surprises we'll find come next year, is what follows - - a little "surprise" that 99% of us had no idea was included in the "new and improved" healthcare legislation . . . the dupes, er, dopes, who backed this administration will be astonished!
Starting in 2011, (next year folks), your W-2 tax form sent by your employer will be increased to show the value of whatever health insurance you are given by the company. It does not matter if that's a private concern or governmental body of some sort.
If you're retired? So what... your gross will go up by the amount of insurance you get.
You will be required to pay taxes on a large sum of money that you have never seen. Take your tax form you just finished and see what $15,000 or $20,000 additional gross does to your tax debt. That's what you'll pay next year.
For many, it also puts you into a new higher bracket so it's even worse."
Do tell! My taxes went down with the implementation of the Bush tax cuts, and I sure as hell ain't rich.
"The 50% who pay no federal income tax will suffer the most. < /sarc >"
Actually, they do because they lose child tax and earning income credits. As the article states: "a married couple with two dependents earning $40,000 about $2,643, with after tax-income dropping to $38,870, from $41,513 if the tax cuts are extended and taxpayers continue to take advantage of refundable credits." Under the current system, the family receives $1513 from the government. Now they'll pay $1130.
You mean... they lied?
Need to change the AMT so that regardless of deductions / refundable / non-refundable credits .... everyone has to send a net total dollars to the government equal to the lowest tax bracket.
I think 10 years after taxes were cut, they can't be called "tax cuts" anymore. Any hikes are NEW hikes to the existing taxes.
Quick facts about the Bush tax cuts for the "rich"
Will it be included in your gross or will it be merely reported as a separate line item for now? I think that is associated with the extra tax on "Cadillac" insurance plans in the future, but is not being taxed yet.
Actually I don't have this on my plate yet. I don't have any kind of health insurance and just pay as I go. Guess that unless the Pubs can repeal and replace I've got to plan for it.
You know, what can happen here is that people will be forced into bankfuptcy or to sell off their assets. Who will be able to buy? Who will want to?
How much aggregated stupidity has to be displayed before average Joe American gets the idea things might need to change back????
Wait a second. What about the women? I though the women were always the hardest hit. And the minorities! What's this special preference for the poor? It's discrimination!
I thought the poor didn't benefit at all from these tax cuts? I seem to recall hearing basically every democrat politician and liberal commentator, newspaper and blogger go on and on about how they only benefitted the rich.
So which is it? Were they also tax cuts for the poor? Or do tax cuts for the rich help the poor so much that doing away with them hurts the poor most of all?
It's really hard to keep up with liberal "logic" sometimes.
That was my understanding, except that all employer-provided insurance will eventually be taxable income. They'll just be 'practicing' in 2011, to see how much they can roll us.
And here we thought Dubya stomped little puppies and hated the poor.
Unfortunately, in spite of unemployment and a sucky economy the general public has not been effected enough for it to sink in. It's gonna hit like a hurricane and everyone will be blindsided. By then it will be too late.
Of course in reality, they are tax increases because today I pay X and in January I will pay X+Y.
The only reason they still discuss them as "tax cuts" in the first place is because of John Mccain leading the "centrist" charge to have tax cuts with a sunset date.
The damage statists do (and McCain's a statist regardless of his party affiliation) is astounding.
Ha ha ha ha ...wait... I have three children...Ha ha ha ha ... wait, I did not vote for him...ha ha ha ha ha ...wait... I'm screwed
Plus the $200 ''fee'' for each bank or credit union you do business with and the 1% ''fee'' when you deposit your chk. and a 1% ''FEE' when you withdraw any of it to pay bills etc. And that's only part of the list.
The poorest don't pay taxes!
Oh crap!
I forgot about that.
But still, wait until the Obie Lovers try to explain it away.
I'm Shocked ! Shocked I say!
If they think increased taxes dont get passed on to the consumer they have to be delusional. The poor spend more of their income on goods then do the rich by necessity. Therefore they have less buying power if taxes increase for those who own the businesses they purchase from.
>> The poorest dont pay taxes!<<
Oh yes they do. They just dont know it. When I owned my businesses if the taxes or other expenses increased it was added to the cost of the product.
What bugs me is that no matter how many times it gets repeated, many people still think that if they can just get tax rates increased on corporations, that will mean lower taxes for individuals. You can't get them to see that no institutions pay any taxes whatsoever. All taxes are paid by individuals, sooner or later in the process.
Clearly this is one of those things that requires too many thoughts in a row.
Remember: "we ha[d] to pass it so we could see what was in it."
They do pay sales taxes and if they're employed, FICA and Medicare, right from the first dollar they earn. And, if they buy things, they pay the taxes embedded in the prices of whatever they buy.
So, your point was...?
Bet the rent it will hit the fan if that happens.
Do you think he even gives a rats ass? All he and the Democrats care about is how to play it politically. Poor people are just props they use in their little Kabuki theater. When the play is done, they throw the props away.
>>The poor don't pay income taxes!<<
Actually they do. They paid MY income taxes. Thats the message that doesnt get to those who THINK they dont pay income taxes.
> "The 50% who pay no federal income tax will suffer the most."
As the provisions of the Bush tax cuts that allowed them to avoid taxation tumble into the ashcan of a lethargic congress, and the once brave souls that stuck their necks out to create jobs withdraw said necks before the axe dropped.
I actually am pretty sure the whole impetus of the entire Democratic Party is power alone. They want to run stuff and will do whatever it takes to be able to do that. So, my question was sort of rhetorical. The point was how much of a blindside would it be if conservative candidates really started pressing this in their campaign stops and commercials? Do the Dems even realize what kind of effect this would have on the political discourse right now?
"The poorest dont pay taxes!"
They'll be losing their tax credits.
Where does this information come from?
When you think about it you pay taxes throughout your day.
Buy gas and a pack of gum on the way to work..taxed
Go to McDonalds for lunch...taxed
Stop for some groceries....taxed
Buy your kid some school supplies...taxed
Pay some bills....taxed
Get your paycheck...taxed
We are taxed to death!!!
You miss the point. It won't be 50% who pay zero, it will be something like 40%
Hey! Just like the end of the world! Those poor poor people.
Cmon everybody knows that the Bush tax cuts only helped the RICH! /s
Yeah, remember when the left was screaming that the poor folks who didn't pay taxes didn't get a tax cut? I wonder if they will scream now that the poor folks who don't pay taxes don't get a tax increase. Or will those who claimed the rich got all the benefits scream because the taxes on poor folks are going up by a higher percentage than the taxes on rich folks.
Double-duh ping. Thanks MichaelNewton.

Conflicting reports have emerged concerning the decision to flip-flop starting pitchers for Tuesday's double-header in Minnesota.

Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria never told John Buck he should buy a house in South Florida. Buck had made that decision on his own during his two seasons in Miami.

Apparently owner Jeffrey Loria is angry at manager Ozzie Guillen for comments Guillen made that were critical of Loria, according to a person who has spoken with Marlins officials.

But Loria didn't like being, in the source's words, "called out" by Guillen.
