Anthony Samad: If the President is the solution to the nation's problems, then the Tea Party doesn't want those problems solved. They'll collapse the country and start over rather than let Obama rebuild it.
Will Obama's Job Speech End Political Gamesmanship?
Anthony Samad: I'll be curious to find out how many people were hired from the CBC job fairs around the country. Or was it another "smoke and mirrors" engagement to make politicians look good?
A President Standing In Quicksand
Joseph Palermo: Obama and the Democrats are in trouble politically not because they did too much to help hurting Americans, but because they did too little.
Brooklyn GOP Win Shows Voters Distrust President Who Cries Wolf
Randy Shaw: With the President still ignoring cries from his base for confrontational and dramatic action, did anyone really expect those Brooklyn Democrats to be highly motivated to get to the polls?
Big-Drama Obama
Brent Budowsky: The Truman metaphor is right for Obama, but it must presage a sustained battle for jobs, and not another brief theatrical scene in an incoherent drama with an inconclusive ending.
Separation Anxiety
Wendy Block: My worst long-range political nightmare is watching the next Republican president appoint even one Supreme Court justice (Go Ralph Nader for President in 2000!).
Is Obama the Best Republican President Since Lincoln?
Tina Dupuy: Historians agree the best Republican President was also the first: Abraham Lincoln. Who's second runner up? Which President has represented Republican values best? Easy. President Barack Obama.
The Ganas Gap: Obama's Latino Challenge
Victoria DeFrancesco Soto: The big worry for the administration regarding Latinos is not that their disapproval will push them into the arms of the GOP but rather that they will not have the same ganas that they did in 2008.
Obama's Jobs Plan: Will He Offer Policy Miniatures or Give 'em Hell?
Robert Reich: The winner of the 2012 presidential election will be the person who comes off as the toughest fighter for average Americans. Earth to Obama: Remember Harry (Give 'em Hell) Truman.
Wanted: A President Who is Tougher Than Terrycloth
Gil Troy: Presidential power also comes from the ability to reward and punish, to create careers and destroy others – demanding a ruthlessness in domestic politics Barack Obama has rarely displayed.
Smiley, West's Anti-Poverty Theme Isn't Hiding Anti-Obama Sentiment
Anthony Asadullah Samad: Poverty's important, but it must be addressed in the context of lifting the nation. The Poverty Tour, masked as a stealth anti-Obama campaign, is no way to get it addressed. For all of our sakes, let the megalomania stop and the healing begin, my friend.
"Come Home America" Message Clear Winner at Iowa Straw Poll
Colleen Rowley: Numerous polls confirm we're approaching a unique moment where a variety of rationales for ending the wars are coming together that transcend prior political differences.
Why Was Obama Missing-in-Action in Wisconsin?
Peter Dreier: Throughout Wisconsin Democrats' struggle, President Barack Obama has been sitting on the sidelines, failing to use his bully pulpit to encourage the burgeoning movement to protect working families from the corporate- and Tea Party-sponsored attacks.

Sapphire Radeon HD 5870 2GB Vapor-X Video Card
Darkest of Days
Version and / or Patch Used: 1.4
Timedemo or Level Used: Built-in Test
Developer Homepage: http://www.darkestofdays.com/index.php
Product Homepage: http://www.darkestofdays.com/index.php
Darkest of Days takes the player through time into historic battles in an effort to save key individuals from certain death. The battles range from Custer's Last Stand at the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876 to fighting in Pompeii as ash and fire rain down from an erupting Mt. Vesuvius in 79 AD. Other locations include the battles of Antietam and Tannenberg, and a German World War II P.O.W. camp. There are different missions in every time period and the game takes about 4 hours to complete.
The game features over twenty weapons, both from the original time period as well as those brought back from the future. In addition, there are artillery weapons from different time periods to assist in battle.
Note: With the PhysX set to Medium or High Darkest of Days take advantage of the NVIDIA PhysX abilities. For that reason we will test ATI cards at the Low preset, NVIDIA based cards though will be tested at Low and High.
DOD sees a little movement, but nothing to get excited about.

fleshing out your game idea
#1 Members - Reputation: 285
Posted 01 January 2012 - 01:10 PM
So now I'm thinking of taking it to the next level. Fleshing out the story (very minor), but it gives context to what the player is doing why they are doing it (game play).
Writing a design doc at this point is a bit premature. I figure I'd story board it, one frame per piece of paper and hang it on the wall. I may need more wall space.
Other then story boarding and a design doc, is there any other way of molding your ideas?

I want to help design a "sandpark" MMO. Optional interactive story with quests and deeply characterized NPCs, plus sandbox elements like player-craftable housing and lots of other crafting. If you are starting a design of this type, please PM me. I also love pet-breeding games.

I find compartmentalizing concepts makes it easier to expand on them and edit them.
Can you share a simple example of what you are talking about? The idea sounds interesting but I'm not sure I'm completely understand.

While his nurses were the absolute best (I feel like they saved my life), this guy is literally running to get out the door as fast as he can. He's rude, he can't look you in the eyes, he's short in all of his explanations and lacks all compassion what so ever. I WISH I were just exaggerating. I wouldn't take my pet to him. When we miscarried this man told us that our child wouldn't be recognizable and he wasn't going to allow us to see our son. If not for the nurses at the hospital I wouldn't have gotten even a moment with my precious baby whom I lost. Look at this man's photo. Seriously, give it a long hard look. It says all you need to know. Trust your gut. You might be questioning if this is an honest review or simply a grieving mother, but please, if there is even a slim chance that you can believe what I'm saying, do you really want to take the chance that you may share in my experience? My advice is this: find another doctor.
The ONE time I saw him, he was RUDE! I had told him about my issues at work and needing to be put on a weight restriction because I had literally TORN my round ligament on my right side. His response? "You don't need accomadations. You're imagining it." I had a bruise on my belly from the blood from it tearing. I was NOT imagining things. And then he had the gall to tell me I was fat. I was 20 weeks pregnant! How was I fat?! So rude. I even told the receptionist at the front desk that if he was the only doctor available to see me for my prenatal appointment, that I would rather change practices completely. I have tried to stick it out with OBGYN Associates but each doctor and nurse I see, the more I really want to change doctors. NO COMPASSION, RUDE, ARROGANT, AND A COMPLETE JERK.
I agree with the other reviewers no compassion at all!
Very knowledgeable and proactive in treatment and prevention of other medical issues.
Dr. Cox has been my physician through two pregnancies. He has always had a good bedside manner and has been willing to answer any and all of my questions. I have never felt rushed in any of my appointments and he has always made me feel at ease. His nurses are also very kind and compassionate. I would recommend Dr. Cox to friends and family!
I've seen Dr. Cox through 3 complicated pregnancies and have found him to be very compassionate and knowledgable. He bends over backward to answer questions fully while making me feel comfortable (and never made me feel like a dummmy for asking), allots plenty of time and has even booked me for more frequent appointments to put my mind at ease due to previous difficulties. Very compassionate when the situation warrants yet honest and to the point. He has relaxed laid back manner which I find prevents unnecessary stress to the patient although he'll be frank when necessary. I can't believe previous posters are referring to the same dr. He's an experienced skilled surgeon but will not hesitate to refer to a specialist/peri when needed. I would recommend him to any friend needing a good general ob/gyn.
very rude
He is a jerk. no compassion at all

| Gianna di Fiori chapter 2 . 3/20
Beautifully written! Nicely detailed and emotionally evocative.
| moonshadow2012 chapter 2 . 1/8/2015
Awwww! I love it! Great writing. It was touching and deep and humorous. I'm impressed with you.
| Smooth Doggie chapter 2 . 7/31/2014
It might be a work of fiction as you describe it, but it's an incredibly well researched and calculated work of fiction. It's a very poignant work of fiction and finally, it's marvellously well written, put together and laid out for our enjoyment. I know I've read it before, but never before has it been as poignant in my life as it is now. Thank YOU for YOUR insights. Very, very helpful indeed. Thank you
| Cutter12 chapter 2 . 4/29/2013
A wonderfully heartwarming and life affirming story. It had me feeling all giddy and warm inside. Also, your explanation on how you came to the conclusion on how many cases Don has been involved with, definitely made me laugh. :D
| ym4yum1 chapter 2 . 6/5/2012
I usually read a lot at night, and then I go back to read and make a review (cause I need time and peace to think and write in English! lol).
But this one I just finished. This is so perfect in so many levels... one worried about the other! Proud Don... "None of them can do what you do, buddy, and they probably feel smarter, just by association. I know I do. It's not everyday I get to be a part of that, Charlie. I'd really like to go." Assertive Charlie "You do make a difference, Don."
And if wasn't enough, you got me with the numbers! I'm a helpless geek! "Numbers, Don. It's what I do. It's what I am." Not complaining!
Thanks my dear, all these numbers make me so happy!

| writer with sprite chapter 2 . 9/25/2011
Well, after you reviewed both of my stories, I wanted to review one of yours. I hadn't read this one yet so I decided to read it. Let me just say very well done, and it is nice to know I am not the only one who isn't Liz's biggest fan. I can really relate to the Don you have in your story - the Don who is not quite sure of himself. It's comforting to know I am not the only one without a constant, huge ego; so thanks for the post. I am on my tablet and cannot really log in, but you know who to reply too. Loved it! Hope to see you post more soon. Or to se you coauthor...
| Cissyaliza chapter 2 . 4/3/2011
Just another good fic. I like very much to remember some characters of Don's investigations... As you, I set Don's birthday in 1970 so I'm agree with this.
And you always succeed to show how much they love each others.
It's the third fics of you I read this evening. But I'm decided to read each of your stories next days.
| Lozzimal chapter 2 . 8/26/2010
Fab work of fiction, not 'just' a work of fiction. I loved it, especially Don's plaque. He's very under appreciated in my opinion.
Thanks for sharing
| CD57 chapter 2 . 6/2/2009
oh that was a wonderful story. Loved the surprise party, loved how they arranged that for Don... Great job!
| EmptySky chapter 2 . 5/24/2009
It does sound like a rough time the family went through, together with Don. I'm aware how bad an infection can be, so I found it very easy to understand and follow everything. And from the way I understand Don's character on the show, and from the comment in your story, I can just see how tough and exhausting everything must have been for our favorite agent. Charlie's even willing to give up something of importance to him for the sake of someone else (just like he did on the show when he gave away the tickets to Larry to go with his father to that one birthday party), that's so sweet. Picturing Ian Edgerton with an apron made my day, thank you very much for the visual. The party for Don was such a nice idea; I can really see him overwhelmed and happy. After such a devastating event happening to him, with Colby on top of his injury, I can see that him being shown all the good he did can make him happy again, and bring everything back in focus. Don's way of repaying them was cute, and I had a good laugh at the end again. I like how much work you put into thinking about everything you needed to make this a good story, with calculations about the age and all cases and everything else. This story sums up some important moments from the previous 3 seasons perfectly. Apart from some minor spelling mistakes: Good job.
| epalladino chapter 2 . 4/25/2009
Wonderful story. You work a lot of angst and character development into a relatively short narrative. All the characters were perfect and I love how you worked that little moment of Colby Granger checking out how Don was doing. That really was a great moment in your story that nicely anticipated the fourth season opening story.
My only teensy quibble is that you have the several misspelled words. The most common error is that you have the word 'surly' where you really wanted 'surely'. 'Surly' is a valid word in English, but means something very different than what you intended, even if it is true that Don can be a bit 'surly' when he is unwell.
Thanks for the fun read, Beth
| capjack54 chapter 2 . 7/21/2008
And a most excellent work of fiction it is. Long live NUMB3RS, and long live Special Agent Donnie Eppes!
| Lisa Paris chapter 2 . 4/2/2008
Ms GC -
I just found this in someone's favs list, and realise why I missed it first time around - I was on holiday in Arizona. Just wanted you to know I love it. Hurt Don, and warm fuzzy feelings all over the place, what better combination could there be?
I thought the way you wove the cannon in was very well done, and the bbq at the end had me laughing and wanting to cry in turns. Edgerton with a 'kiss the cook' apron . . .
I wholeheartedly agree with your summary of Don as independent but by no means a loner. Great story!
| Numb3rsR3b3l chapter 2 . 10/19/2007
OMG you put so much work into the research for this story! This was a great story, it's really refreshing to see Don get the thanks he deserves. It was also great to see all of the characters from all of the episodes come back together. Plus it was so sweet of Don to send Charlie and Alan on a cruise with their ladies. (Now if I could only get Amita out of the way and slip onto that ship HA HA HA!)

2000 Chevrolet Astro Minivan 3dr Minivan
Bought this van with 30000 miles on it. Had a few minor issues that first year or so -- power lock failure, etc. No problems since then. With 4 kids, a dog, and a camper, we make full use of the incredible amount of space inside this van. It's one of the few vehicles that can comfortably seat our family, plus two others AND tow. Holds way more stuff than a regular minivan. We've used it to tow our camper (22-ft, 4000 lbs) half way across the country with absolutely no issues - at 100k miles. People are always surprised to see us tow with it. Added a transmission cooler and complete tow pkg. There's nothing fancy about this van, but it's great for a larger, active family.
Dependability, seating capacity, cargo space, surprisingly large towing capacity, cost to purchase and own
Doesn't really matter. The van has been discontinued.
Just bought my van, it is a cargo van used for hauling just about anything. GM just quit making these in 2005, for another SUV-like vehicle[ like there aren't enought of them]..a mistake in my view. My 1st Astro was an '86, ran forever, and I needed a van that could take more cargo capacity than a front drive mini. I plan on driving the wheels off, and it should hold up I think
Comfortable seats w/ lumbar, lock out feature so you can't accidently lock your keys in the ignition, overhead light defeat button, reasonable gas mileage, truck like build quality, cheap parts available anywhere.
Pot metal exterior door handles, but easy to replace, engine access to real good[ I do my own repairs]..all-in-all good van.
Too many little things have fallen apart. I've got 50K miles on the car and have had to repair the following: - New brakes (I've had three new rotors and pads on the front) - Gas Gauge doesn't work - vacum problems cause the A/C fan not to work - Sliding door doesn't work right - Tons of little pieces have fallen off
Big car, spacious seating
Build it with better quality
Although the initial quality was
acceptible this vehicle does not hold
it's miles well. All maintenence was
done on schedule however after 60000
miles the vehicle seemed to be in self
destruct mode. Starter, Battery, Water
Pump, AC Compressor, Blower Motor,
Rear Wheel Bearing, Transmission...
This vehicle was the last straw for
the big three (GM, Ford, Chrysler) in
my book. I never had any issues with
my Hyundai and I love my Honda even
more. I hate to say it but our Union
workers are overated. Abolish the
Unions and let's start building decent
vehicles here in the USA. Until then
Honda has my business. They are over
75% USA or Canadian anyway.
The Astro van is the last of the Rear
wheel drive minivans. The roominess
and confort levels are outstanding. It
drives with more confidence than it's
front wheel drive competitors. Stereo
has decent sound quality and
reception. Replacement parts are cheep
and plentifull.
GM needs to improve the reliability of
the Astro. Sliding Door becomes mis
aligned easily causing shipped paint
on the door edges. Cheep 80's style
handles break often. Removeable seats
are bulky and clumsy to operate. Old
styling needs an "Extreme Makeover".
Love to drive it, but internal
mechanisms are breaking down...made
Handles well. Very roomy, seats are
Would love it if it had rear doors on
both sides. Door locks, A/C and Heat
control dial melted from the dummy
light..should these really be made from

"The only one that I have gotten in the last couple of weeks is from Arizona," Mendoza said. "There are some other schools that could be close too."
One of Mendoza's favorites, Texas A&M, has yet to offer, but that doesn't mean he won't get one eventually.
"That is the only school that I have been to this spring so far," Mendoza said. "They told me that they have been talking about me and for me not to worry that I am definitely one of the guys at the top of their list. They said their process is slower than most schools in terms of getting offers out there to running backs."
Mendoza missed three games due to injury as a junior and still rushed for 657 yards and 10 touchdowns while earning second team all-district honors.
"My list of favorites are still the same as it has been," Mendoza said. "I plan to worry about my season and then make a decision."

But there is still much work to be done. When it comes to their health, too many men don't talk, don't take action, and die too young.
Every Movember, we challenge men to grow and women to support a moustache or make a commitment to get active and MOVE for 30 days. Men and women sign up at Movember.com and choose to Grow, Give, or MOVE.

Calgary police have charged a 22-year-old man with five counts of first-degree murder in the stabbing death of five people.
The suspect, Matthew Douglas de Grood, is the son of a senior officer with the city police force.
Chief Rick Hanson says de Grood is a student at the University of Calgary and was an invited guest at a house party celebrating the end of the school year.
Police allege the suspect arrived at the party early Tuesday morning, got his hands on a large knife and began stabbing the victims one by one.
Three men died at the scene, while another man and a woman died in hospital.
``This is the worst murder, mass murder, in Calgary's history,'' Hanson said. ``We have never seen five people killed by an individual at one scene. The scene was horrific.''
Hanson says the dead were all ``good kids'' who were in their twenties.
Police were called to the northwest residential neighbourhood of Brentwood, not far from the University of Calgary campus, at about 1:20 a.m.
The suspect was arrested with the help of the police canine unit about 40 minutes after the stabbings. He was taken to hospital for treatment of dog bites.
Hanson says the suspect worked at a grocery store and his father had worked with the force for 33 years. There was no immediate word about a possible motive.
The blue-sided house where the stabbing took place is on a quiet, tree-lined residential street. It was surrounded with yellow police tape as medical examiner staff brought three bodies out on stretchers.
Neighbours in the area say the house was being rented by University of Calgary students and the party stemmed from the student union's annual Bermuda Shorts Day, which was held Monday.
The event, shortened by students to BSD, is an annual outdoor party on campus featuring live music and beer gardens to celebrate the end of classes.
The school's student newspaper, The Gauntlet, wrote about the tradition two weeks ago in a story titled ``BSD: It'll be a bloodbath.''
On Twitter, many students wrote about how they starting drinking early in the morning Monday and continued after the campus event at parties elsewhere.
Trent Pattison wrote: ``Sad that days that are supposed to be remembered as a fun great day will be remembered for the wrong reasons. BSD2014.''
The university posted a short statement about the deaths on its website, saying counselling would be offered to anyone needing it.
``The University of Calgary is mourning the loss of five young people killed early this morning in Brentwood,'' the statement reads.
``The identities of the deceased have not yet been confirmed by Calgary Police Services. Once details are confirmed by Calgary Police Services, the university will provide a further statement.''
Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi took to Twitter to offer condolences.
``Thoughts and prayers of all Calgarians are with the young people we lost this morning, their families, friends, and university community,'' the mayor said.

Do you have data to support that opinion….
I admit I have become a bit of a cynic over the past couple years. Honestly, the more information I have access to, the less I enjoy listening to people explain why everything should be done their way when they don't provide me with solid evidence. Not that I want to be rude, but I have very limited time –we have very limited time — to make a difference in people's lives. I choose not to spend mine on projects that cannot be supported with evidence. And by evidence I don't mean something I read in a book somewhere. I want facts, repeated, high qualityRead More →

OSHA News Release - (Archived) Table of Contents
OSHA News Release – Region 5
U.S. Department of Labor
Region 5 News Release 04-1171-CHI
Date: July 8, 2004
Contact: Brad Mitchell
Phone: (312) 353-6976
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Norse Dairy Systems, a division of Interbake Foods Inc. in Columbus, is facing $122,000 in proposed penalties from the U.S. Labor Department's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) following a January 2004 inspection that revealed a number of dangerous workplace violations.
"Strong enforcement has been one of the keys to this Administration's success in reducing workplace injuries and illnesses to record low levels," said U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao. "The significant penalty of $122,000 in this case demonstrates our commitment to protecting the health and safety of American workers."
OSHA opened its investigation in response to a complaint about safety issues at the plant, which primarily manufactures and supplies equipment, packaging and flavorings to the novelty ice cream industry. The subsequent inspection found alleged willful violations of OSHA regulations, including lack of machine guarding to prevent amputations and similar injuries, and failure to control all energy sources during maintenance operations on machinery. In addition, serious safety problems were noted, including failure to monitor lead exposure and failure to provide training on various workplace safety and health issues.
The company employs approximately 3,500 full-time workers at facilities in California, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. There are 170 workers at the Columbus site. OSHA has conducted 11 inspections at the various company locations and in October 1996 issued serious citations related to an amputation accident.
The company has 15 working days from receipt of the citations to appeal before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.
In fiscal year (FY) 2003, OSHA conducted almost 40,000 inspections, an increase of more than 2,000 inspections over FY 2002 levels; more than half focused on high-hazard industries. OSHA's role is to assure the safety and health of America's workers by setting and enforcing standards; providing training, outreach, and education; establishing partnerships; and encouraging continual improvement in workplace safety and health.

Economy - overview: Guinea is a poor country that possesses major mineral, hydropower, solar power, and agricultural resources. Guinea has historically been an exporter of agricultural commodities, but in recent years has shifted to importing the majority of food crops. Bauxite is Guinea's main mineral resource as well as its main source of foreign currency. Guinea is the second largest producer of bauxite in the world and has the largest reserves of bauxite, estimated at 29 billion tons. The country also has significant iron ore, gold, and diamond reserves. However, Guinea has been unable to profit from this potential, as rampant corruption, dilapidated infrastructure, and political uncertainty have drained investor confidence. In the time since a 2008 coup following the death of long-term President Lansana CONTE, international donors, including the G-8, the IMF, and the World Bank, significantly curtailed their development programs but, following the December 2010 presidential elections, the IMF approved a new 3-year ECF arrangement in 2012. Guinea in September 2012 reached HIPC completion point status. Further international assistance and investment are contingent on the ability of the government to be transparent, combat corruption, reform its banking system, improve its business environment, and build infrastructure. International investors have expressed keen interest in Guinea's vast iron ore reserves, which could propel the country's growth. The government in April 2013 amended the September 2011 mining code to reduce taxes and royalties. Longer range plans to deploy broadband Internet throughout the country could spur economic growth as well. The biggest threats to Guinea's economy are political instability and low international commodity prices.
Definition: This entry briefly describes the type of economy, including the degree of market orientation, the level of economic development, the most important natural resources, and the unique areas of specialization. It also characterizes major economic events and policy changes in the most recent 12 months and may include a statement about one or two key future macroeconomic trends.

Just for the record, you can make them jam-o-matics if you use too heavy of an aftermarket recoil spring.
I've ruined many a pistol's perfect record that way, CZs and otherwise. I mention this because a lot of people experiment with the weight.
July 6, 2008, 09:56 PM
This particular 75 is all CZ except for the mainspring. I changed it to a Wolf 13#'er. However, I never had a problem with the original CZ mainspring.
July 6, 2008, 09:59 PM
For me, Glocks. I have owned 4 and have NEVER had a jam of any type.
Avoiding the arugements of nonsupported chambers, grip angles, polymer frames. There probably is no more dependable pistol than a full sized Glock 17.
Also, durable. There is nothing that you hear keeps breaking on them.
What is it the CZ has problems with, the slide stop?
July 6, 2008, 10:05 PM
What is it the CZ has problems with, the slide stop?
Sure, if it's the 1980s, and we are talking about Tanfoglios. ;)
This is sort of an internet myth from what I can tell. People using pre series 88 Tanfoglios in competition would often break slide stops.
I have been involved at CZF for about eight years, and we only had one member who had this problem. It turned out that his frame was not correctly machined. It was replaced under warranty.
At some point, CZ-UB replaced the steel recoil guide with delrin, so there may be something to the slidestop myth. The idea would be that a plastic rod is easier on the stop and barrel shank. Who knows?

July 6, 2008, 10:11 PM
I've had a bunch of CZ pistols over the years. I still have a few. I've shot thousands and thousands of rounds through my CZs and I have never broken a slide stop.
I really like CZs.
Best regards.
July 6, 2008, 10:15 PM
Sure Thing,
I have 2 Glocks, a 1st gen 17 and a new G34. The G17 has had a few issues (when it shouldn't have) and G34 mis-fed on about the 3rd mag, using the same ammo I feed the CZ.
Any gun can mis-fed. I suspect if I shoot my CZ long enough, it'll do it to. It just hasn't happened so far.
July 6, 2008, 10:22 PM
I have a Ruger P89 that has not one time let me down, and I have fired thousands of rounds through it, all reloads.
July 6, 2008, 10:25 PM
I read the slide stop thing here
July 6, 2008, 10:26 PM
That was the gentleman with the mismachined frame/slide.
July 6, 2008, 11:37 PM
CZs do break slide stops. However, it's more normal to have one break like every 15k rounds. Of course they are a mass produced mechanical item, so there's some sort of distribution. Some break sooner, some break later...
It's not unusual for CZs to last 100k rounds or so. People with that many rounds down the pipe usually report having replaced a few slide stops.

craig arnold... I'm not going to sleep for a couple days after looking at that collection... VERY, VERY impressive!! As they say "You da Man!!!
Not to cause any problems, but I somehow DIDN'T see a 97B in that 'family'... reason?... or your NEXT purchase?
BTW: have five CZs with a total of 5-10,000 rnds fired... Z-E-R-O problems, NOTHING!!... One of the many reasons why I love 'em and keep buyin 'em!..
BTW(2): Do you really like CZs craig?...
July 7, 2008, 07:42 AM
two kahrs, never one malfunction, combined total over 15,000 rounds.
My PM9 has 13,000 through it, better than a "duracell even"
July 7, 2008, 09:54 AM
The slide stop on my CZ-75 B did actually break clean in half after approximately 5000 rounds.
Replacementg however was easy & inexpensive.
I have to add I bought that pistol used & don't know how many rounds it had under its belt when I bought it. I guess about once again that much.
(I knew the first owner & trusted her to have taken good care of her gun, since she's my younger daughter)
July 7, 2008, 01:44 PM
Only two things I've had go wrong on a CZ75 - worn-out barrel (for obvious reasons) and the front-sight flying off during a match (back in the days when they were simply staked in place).
July 7, 2008, 02:11 PM
I've owned two auto pistols that i have not had a FTF the cz75b and the
Makarov, while I tend to shoot BHP's and 1911's more.
July 7, 2008, 04:09 PM
I've never owned a semi-auto that never had a malfunction. Even my mighty G19 started failing to eject properly. It did have a TON of rounds through it and that was with the original mag that came with the gun. New recoil spring (not sure it was needed) and mag spring and no malfunctions since. Nothing is ever 100% perfect over the long run.
July 7, 2008, 08:30 PM
I have a number of pistols that have never failed.
Most have already been mentioned, but here are mine.
Kahr K9 and it is one of the first ones around too.
My Kahr PM9 hasn't failed, but I only have about 500 rounds through it.
XD9 is 100%.
CZ75B and a P01
Don't have them anymore, but my three Makarovs never failed.
July 7, 2008, 09:15 PM
Never jammed in all these years:
Bryco .380
Ruger P95
Hi-Point .45 acp
Romanian Carpati
Polish P64
See a trend here. Some of my cheaper pistols are more reliable than my Walthers and Colts.
July 7, 2008, 09:31 PM
Taurus PT92
6K rounds of perfect!
To be honest I didn't see that one coming but that doesn't make me any less happy.
Samuel Adams
July 7, 2008, 09:50 PM
Very impressive Mr. Arnold. Why is it that I don't see a Single Action pistol there???
July 8, 2008, 11:36 AM
Um, maybe because this thread is about semi-auto PISTOLS? :rolleyes:
July 8, 2008, 08:10 PM
My S&W 915 has never jammed on anything. My other four semi, Walther P1, Bersa 380, Ruger 22/45 are pretty good but each has jammed at least once. I got a budget 1911 coming so I am sure it will go into the has jammed list.
July 8, 2008, 09:00 PM
I had two FTFs with my CZ PO-1 during break-in. Zero malfunctions since.
I have never had a malfuction with either one of my XDs and I've got over 4000 rounds through my 40 Service.
July 8, 2008, 09:20 PM
My West German P220 has been flawless. My CZ75 does not have nearly as many rounds through it, but has been 100%.
July 8, 2008, 09:28 PM
Long time admirer of CZ's here, though I've never been able to warm up to them enough to buy one. FWIW, my unfailing pistols have been Glocks (19, 21), Berettas (92fs, 90-Two, PX4), and HK (USPc .45, USP 9mm, P2000). To be fair, the pistols that made 5k rounds and kept on were the USP 9mm, the P2k, and the 92fs. Sold the rest after finding that they weren't to my liking.
July 8, 2008, 09:56 PM
Very odd. The only two pistols that I've had run 100% were
two CZ75 preB models, and of course, my wife's Glock 19 that
was stolen.
I wish that I could include my 9mm RAMI and my 10mm Witness, but both have had problems. Hyper velocity ammo (RAMI)
and 200 gr. XTP reloads (Witness) but has ran about 8,000
other rounds just fine!
The 75B Stainless that I have up for sale
doesn't seem to like Blazer ammo. This is common with some
75Bs, and the gun has ran 100% with brass cased ammo.
However, all considered.
Problems with the stoic CZ75 design are a rarity.
July 9, 2008, 01:41 PM
never jammed:
Ruger P89
Ruger P944
Ruger P95
Bulg. Makarov
XD45acp 5"
July 9, 2008, 03:08 PM
My never a bobble autos:
1. Kimber Ultra CarryII
2. S&W SC Commander
6. Sig 239
8. CZ75 Compact
*In all honesty, the G19 will stovepipe with weak ammo, with my 10yr old son shooting. Cant really blame the gun, however, the same ammo runs great in my CZ.
July 9, 2008, 03:57 PM
Then that G19 is certainly NOT a "never a bobble" semi-auto, now is it?
July 9, 2008, 04:56 PM
All three of my XDs. My CZ75 jammed all the time. Got it back from the factory a while back, need to go shoot it.

Your mind
Allora vs. Chaos
Round 4
Instantly, darkness enveloped grinning Chaos, cocooning it in shadow. Allora watched suspiciously as the cocoon began to bulge. It was transforming again. And frankly, she did not want to see what was worse than what he'd already presented her.
she decided,
I need to get out of here and get help from the other psychics!
"You really thought I'd let you leave?"
Came a warped, distorted voice.
She did her best to focus on breaking the psychic link between their minds, therefore waking them both up. However, in that instant, she realized something. Paladin was now dead... which meant that if his body woke up, it would be fully controlled by the only other presence within it: Chaos.
She couldn't let that happen. By the time she would have gotten the other psychics, Chaos might have escaped. And the only thing worse than losing her friend was allowing this monster to control his body and wreak havoc.
Allora restored the connection, and glanced at the cocoon. It had grown exponentially. She didn't think she could destroy whatever was in there, but maybe she could hinder it long enough so that Paladin's body would stay unconscious, and she could get the other psychics to finish the job.
What emerged from that cocoon would be an image that would haunt her for the rest of her life. From that cocoon emerged a pitch black, red-eyed Ninetales with her own blue Warrior Fangs underneath its eyes. She was looking at a shadow version of herself.
"In the end, I am always this. A dark side. Everyone has one, even you."
To her horror, Allora found that Chaos was using her own voice.
"You think that you're completely good, don't you? That you kill in the name of honor and justice. But, in the end, what gives you the right to decide whether others should live or die? Of course, I shouldn't be one to talk. In case you haven't noticed, I'm evil."
It laughed a deep, distorted laugh that sounded like a mix of her own voice and Paladin's.
Then, the dark Allora began to grow, from its back emerged a bulb that looked like the head of a Golurk. Its front legs grew slim and tentacle-like, while its back legs grew long and wide, to create Golurk-like legs. It stood up on its hind legs, and its Ninetales head grew larger and had bigger teeth.
From its back, the head seemed to grow out of its back, followed by a torso and a pair of arms identical to those of a Golurk. The torso grew long, and extended over the rest of the creature's form until it loomed over, like some sort of parasite. Meanwhile, more tentacles emerged from the Ninetales part of the body until there were so many Allora couldn't count them anymore; dozens riddled its torso.
Allora had to keep reminding herself that this thing wasn't real. It was a mental apparition. Chaos had taken this form to scare her or intimidate her. And it was working.
She was no longer as confident as before. This hybrid Chaos looked like the toughest thing she'd ever faced, but by Arceus, she was going to face it.
"Let's end this!"
She shouted, and with that, she was off.
Chaos had become massive, about as tall as a five-story building. From its Golurk body, it began punching at the ground furiously with massive fists, shattering any shards of information it came across. Then, with its Ninetales body, it lashed out with tentacles. Allora skillfully avoided the punches, but ended up getting whipped multiple times by the tentacles. She found that, despite her best efforts at concentration, she could not heal the wounds inflicted. She could feel them... draining her. Her life slipped away the longer the wounds stayed, but she persisted. She jumped onto a nearby shard and, using her psychic energy, guided the platform up to the monster's head. She launched a Heat Wave at it, which did no apparent damage. The monster didn't even seem to notice it. It returned a Dark Wave, five times as powerful and large, which knocked Allora right off the platform, and obliterated any nearby shards. She landed on the ground hard, and forced herself to stand up. Her wounds drained her, and she knew she wouldn't be able to go on for long.
"End this? Hah! You sure talk big for someone so tiny."
Chaos laughed, and lifted one of its legs to crush Allora. Not knowing what else to do, she summoned the last of her force to run. She tried her best to outrun the giant, but it was much faster and caught up to her in mere seconds. It lifted its foot once more, to deliver the killing blow...
"Hah! Aahahahaha!"
Chaos began laughing insanely, and Allora simply watched as it stood frozen in place, the only thing that moved was its Golurk head, which laughed endlessely.
"You actually thought I was going to kill you? No! I could've done that long ago if I'd wanted to. After all, it is my mind."
Chaos said. Allora dropped to the ground, unable to keep her footing from the draining effects of her wounds. The monster stopped laughing and stared at the defeated Ninetales.
"No, I simply needed you. Look around you,"
Chaos ordered. Allora did so wearily. All she saw was blackness.
Chaos shouted unnecessarily loudly.
"Blackness! This is why I needed you, Allora. I brought you into Paladin's mind so that I could fight you, and finally destroy all of this useless information! Don't you see?"
Then, Allora understood.
"Yes! Our fight has destroyed every last bit of information left floating around in here. And Paladin himself too! Without your life force, I never could've gotten enough power to do it, or to transform into this incredible being!"
It laughed for a moment, then continued.
"With it all gone, this place is an empty, meaningless void waiting to be filled with glorious, oh glorious DARKNESS!"
Allora had to get out of here. She had to break the link before Chaos could absorb any more of her life force, but... she was too weak.
"Oh, don't worry about that, dear. I'll break the link myself in due time. After all, I don't need you anymore. However, I need to make you weak enough to ensure you won't interfere with the final phase of my plan."
"What... plan?"
Allora said weakly.
"Why not just kill me?
"What?! Kill you?!
Chaos said, as if offended.
"Arceus, no! What fun would that be?!"
Then, it laughed that horrible laugh again. Allora could feel her consciousness slipping away. She had to... stop... him...
"Oh man..."
Chaos grumbled, as it struggled to find its place in this empty mind.
"I can't steer this thing by myself. Where is that triggerman that the big lug in Silver City promised me?
"Oh wait..."
Chaos steered Paladin's lumbering form in the direction of a familiar figure in the distance. He was accompanied by two other, smaller figures.
"There he is.
In the back of Paladin's destroyed mind, one thing remained. One thing which would eternally remain in this hollowed-out, dark brain. The drumming. The never-ending four beats, repeating themselves over and over.
Dum, dum, dum, dum...
Allora awoke in a daze. Slowly, she felt life return to her, but her mind was still numb. She struggled to stand up on her wobbly legs, falling over a few times, but eventually managing to get up. Scanning her surroundings quickly, she found that she was still in the exact same place she had left her physical self, but Paladin - or at least, his body - was nowhere to be seen. How long had she been out? Chaos must've already escaped with Paladin's body. But then, she heard a faint stomp from not so far away. That sounded like Paladin's footstep. Although her first thought was to get the other psychics, she realized that by the time she had done so, he'd have gotten away. So, wearily, she began following him, her mind still slightly dazed.
While walking, she began wondering exactly what could've happened to her own mind during the fight. Paladin's mind had been completely obliterated, and since they were connected by a psychic link at the time, that could've also had some effect on her own mind. She wondered what Veletra would've said about this. But then, she realized something. She had no idea who this 'Veletra' was. How had this name suddenly popped into her head? She knew nobody of that name.
Finally, she found Paladin's body. It walked robotically forward. Approaching it, she decided to try saying something.
"Chaos?" She asked. No response.
Walking ahead of the giant, she found that his eyes were... lifeless. As if all color had been drained from him. It also seemed as if the darkness had not overtaken his body, as half of it was still normal. Was it possible that Chaos had not taken full control yet? The fact that the body walked aound aimlessly like a zombie further supported the theory. But how could she stop it? Was there still a chance that she could kill him?
But... she couldn't. Not only was she far too weak to even attack, but she couldn't kill her friend. Even if it wasn't really him, his body was the same and she couldn't bring herself to do that. She desperately wanted to contact the other psychics, but her mind was too weak as well. Her psychic powers were totally drained.
In the end, the only thing she could do was follow him to see if he was going anywhere in particular. He did nothing to stop her. This went on for a few minutes until the two came upon a clearing, where all houses in the area had apparently been destroyed. Glancing ahead, she saw three figures, two of them were smaller, one taller than his associates. At first, she assumed that they were Affiliates, but when she got a closer look at the Jolteon, the Sableye, and more importantly, the Scizor in the distance, she couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Quimm refers to the most precious part of the female anatomy. Quimm can be considered the vagina but more frequently may be an alternate word for the Fillet, Lips, or Labia. It should also be noted that the Quimm being discussed would be attractive and pleasing not only to the sight but also the touch, smell and taste. NOT some ugly, misshapen, smelly, ratty old thing.
"She was taking it the ass like a true porn star when I noticed her luscious quivering quimm."

Can you define these popular missing words?
simply, a vagina. it was used in canterbury tales, some story i was reading in school and my teacher said it meant vagina.

I actually like this photo of us.
So the pictures are coming back from DragonCon this year, and I am sadly reminded of how much fun I had at DragonCon last year.
I am also reminded of how much I don't social network, and how afraid I am of actually talking to awesome people like Alistair over here.
I am a lot like Morrigan in that regard. I'm very walled up and closed off to the world. I really need to come out of my shell a little bit. It might be good for me, and who knows, I might even get a god baby out of the process.
Expect fun cosplay write ups soon.

Thomas Earns Second PL Offensive Player Of The Week Award
March 24, 2014
CENTER VALLEY, Pa. - Loyola University Maryland junior Annie Thomas has been named the Patriot League Offensive Player of the Week for a second time this season, as announced by the league office Monday. Thomas also earned the honor on February 25, while junior Taryn VanThof was included on this week's honorable mention performances.
In a 16-5 win at Bucknell on Wednesday, Thomas scored a career-high five goals and added three assists for a personal-best eight points. She followed that up by tallying two goals and an assist in a 12-4 win over Lehigh on Saturday.
For the week, Thomas recorded a team-high 11 points on seven goals and four assists.
So far this season, Thomas is second on the team with 20 goals, 13 assists and 33 points. In Patriot League only games, she ranks second in the league, to teammate Marlee Paton, in goals (10) and points (14).
VanThof was included on the honorable mentions list after contributing four goals, one assist, five points, four ground balls, 12 draw controls and three caused turnovers. For the season, VanThof leads the team with 54 draw controls, ranking her sixth on Loyola's single-season records for draw controls.
Thomas becomes the first Greyhound to earn two offensive player of the week honors this season, while Paton and junior Hannah Schmitt have also garnered the accolade. Thomas is also the third Greyhound with multiple weekly honors, as VanThof was twice named the midfielder of the week and sophomore goalkeeper Molly Wolf has earned defensive honors twice this year.
Loyola will step out of conference play on Tuesday when it heads to No. 14 Georgetown. The former BIG EAST foes will take the field at 7 p.m.

Pair charged in Erie gun threat incident
Erie police said they seized two handguns after a man reported being threatened outside an eastside store Saturday night.
Kyale D. Booth, 22, and Donte D. Allen, 21, both of Erie, were later charged in the incident outside the Walmart store at 2711 Elm St. shortly before 7 p.m.
Police accuse Booth and Allen of confronting a man who was with his granddaughter. Police said one of the suspects made a comment about a possible earlier confrontation and said he should shoot the victim while showing him a gun, according to a criminal complaint. The other suspect also made a comment about shooting the man, police said.
Booth and Allen were later taken into custody by officers who seized guns from them, police said Monday. The two were arraigned Sunday by Erie 4th Ward District Judge Tom Robie on charges of terroristic threats, recklessly endangering, simple assault and disorderly conduct. Robie set bond at $5,000 apiece for Booth and Allen.

WASHINGTON - A former Marine officer who has held engineering and management jobs in three NASA centers is taking over as manager of the space shuttle program as the space agency tries to recover from the Columbia accident.
William W. Parsons, 47-year-old director of NASA's John C. Stennis Space Center in Mississippi, was named Friday as the new manager of the space shuttle program, succeeding Ronald Dittemore who acted as NASA's most prominent spokesman after the loss of Columbia. Dittemore announced plans to resign on April 23. Officials said there will be a period of transition, with Parsons and Dittemore working together for a time, but the new manager should be in charge by this summer.
Parsons said he approaches his new job "with a bit of trepidation" because it comes during a period of recovery for the program.
