Eleven UTSA faculty members were recognized with the President's Distinguished Achievement Awards and one faculty member was honored with the Chancellor's Council Outstanding Teaching Award. Following are the winners and descriptions of their achievements.
Associate Professor Ben Olguín received the President's Distinguished Achievement Award for Teaching Excellence.
An associate professor in the Department of English since 1997, Ben Olguín has taught more than 50 graduate and undergraduate courses, from core curriculum courses with large enrollments to small seminars. He draws stellar evaluations from English majors and non-majors alike.
In these evaluations, students routinely acknowledge that Olguín is "one of the hardest professors" they have ever had, yet "one of the best professors" they have encountered.
"What I really liked is that the instructor got us to open our minds and to think," wrote one student evaluator.
His rigorous academic standards, creativity and accessibility have successfully prepared many students for graduate study. Olguín dedicates substantial time and effort to scholarship and fellowship mentoring, excels at curriculum development and service, and was instrumental in developing the Ph.D. program.
He has worked to diversify the English department's curriculum, institutionalizing Latina/o and African American literary studies. He uses innovative approaches, such as multimedia testimonials and service learning, to unlock student brilliance, earning accolades from all quarters.
One graduate student wrote, "... He treats his students like colleagues and encourages us to reach for higher levels of learning and to become experts. He always seems genuinely excited about our work, which is so meaningful."
Assistant Professor Jianwei Niu also received the President's Distinguished Achievement Award for Teaching Excellence.
Jianwei Niu joined the Department of Computer Science as an assistant professor in 2005. Since that time, she has received outstanding teaching evaluations by undergraduate and graduate students alike. Her student evaluations include such superlatives as exceptional, accessible, fantastic and awesome.
Niu has developed three course curricula in software engineering, and in doing so has focused on better preparing students to develop large-scale software systems by exposing them to software engineering principles, methods and tools. In particular, she has created industry-scale projects, which give students hands-on experience applying software engineering theories in practice.
"The lectures were interactive, the class discussions were stimulating," wrote one student. "I learned a lot about how to work with people in groups," said another.
Niu also is enthusiastic about encouraging female and minority students to get involved in cutting-edge software engineering and security analysis research. This effort helps UTSA to retain students and recruit them for graduate school.
Ron Sweet, lecturer II in the College of Business Department of Finance, also received the President's Distinguished Achievement Award for Teaching Excellence.
Since coming to work at UTSA in 1997, Ron Sweet has taught a variety of finance courses including risk management, property-liability insurance, life and health insurance, and securities analysis. In addition to his part-time teaching duties, he works as a vice president of equity investments for USAA; he holds an M.B.A. and numerous professional certifications.
Sweet draws on this real-world experience to make his course work practical and relevant for students. His syllabi are thorough and rigorous, benefitting from his work experience as well as his knowledge of textbook topics. His classes consistently draw large enrollments and stellar evaluations from undergraduate and graduate students alike.
One student wrote, "I have never seen a professor so willing to go out of his way -- on his own time -- to provide help to students."
Sweet's knowledge of both the theory and practice of finance, and his ability to engage the students both in the coursework as well as their intellectual curiosity, have made a real difference in students' lives.
Professor Karl Klose received the President's Distinguished Achievement Award for Research Excellence.
Since joining the Department of Biology in 2004, Karl Klose, an expert in bacterial pathogenesis, has had a dramatic impact on university research.
Klose is currently funded by five National Institutes of Health (NIH) grants and contracts, an accomplishment that is unique to UTSA. Well-established within the international research community, Klose serves as founder and director of the South Texas Center for Emerging Infectious Diseases at UTSA. The center includes 19 investigators and their lab and is already one of the most successful centers ever established at UTSA.
Klose has achieved international recognition for his research into cholera, a disease that remains endemic in many areas of the world and for which there is no effective vaccine.
Three of Klose's NIH grants fund the study of Francisella tularensis, a bacteria that causes the disease tularemia. This potentially lethal bacteria has been studied for use as a bioweapon, and Klose and colleagues hope their research will lead to the development of a vaccine.
Klose has worked to attract other researchers in microbiology and immunology to campus. In addition, Klose is training the next generation of scientists by maintaining an active laboratory with Ph.D., master's and undergraduate students performing research. His leadership is truly advancing the research mission of the university.
Assistant Professor Anne-Marie Nuñez also received the President's Distinguished Achievement Award for Research Excellence.
Anne-Marie Nuñez' research focuses on organizational factors that hinder or support the college preparation, transition and retention of diverse students. She joined the Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies in 2007.
In just two years at UTSA, she has produced eight articles for publication in peer-reviewed journals (in press), another article that has already been published, a book chapter and eight conference presentations. She also has written a number of funded grants.
Nuñez possesses a rare ability to draw upon multiple methodologies, both quantitative and qualitative, to address various research questions. Much of her research to date has addressed the theoretical perspectives and educational experiences concerning Latino students, first-generation college-going students and migrant students.
In addition to her research activities, Nuñez is an outstanding teacher in both the master's and doctoral programs. She also has been recognized as a faculty fellow by the American Association for Hispanics in Higher Education, an award given to top junior scholars whose work focuses on Hispanic students in higher education.
Professor John Silantien received the President's Distinguished Achievement Award for Performance, Creative Production or other Scholarly Achievement.
John Silantien is a professor of voice and director of choral activities in the Department of Music. Next year will mark his 30th year of teaching at UTSA. His experience and talent provide UTSA students and the wider community with access to superlative musical experiences.
This award honors Silantien's work to advance the performance and knowledge of choral music to the general public, teachers and students alike through a multifaceted Web site project.
Silantien recently completed the initial phase of research and publication of material for the Library of Congress Web site, "American Choral Music, 1870=1923." This treasure trove of American choral music history features sound clips, manuscripts, related art, links and other resources on choral composers. The site represents a collaboration between the Library of Congress and the American Choral Directors Association.
Silantien will continue to work with the project this summer, adding 50 additional works. He also recently authored an article about the project in The Choral Journal -- the premier journal for choral educators.
Associate Professor Ann Eisenberg received the President's Distinguished Achievement Award for Excellence in University Service.
Ann Eisenberg's record of service to UTSA is extensive, exemplary and superlative by any measure. As associate dean of the Honors College, she works with faculty and departments to organize and plan 60-70 honors courses, supervises recruitment efforts that bring 200-250 students into the Honors College, and oversees the selection and distribution of 150 honors scholarships.
Eisenberg advises and mentors many Honors students -- in 2008 she had almost 400 advising sessions with students. She creates the newsletters that keep these students informed, works with Honors students on research projects and writes a "staggering" number of recommendation letters.
One nominee wrote, "Perhaps most noteworthy among the numerous areas of superlative service to UTSA is her commitment to students... She never forgets their names, she knows them as students and as people and she is there for them when they need assistance or just a place to unwind."
Eisenberg works closely with Terry Scholarship and Archer Fellows programs, holding a number of demanding positions that ultimately benefit students. She also serves on major department and university committees, contributing time and effort to help UTSA fulfill its mission and goals.
Professor Roxanne Henkin received the President's Distinguished Achievement Award for Excellence in Community Service.
A professor of literacy education in the Department of Interdisciplinary Learning and Teaching, Henkin's service reaches beyond the local community to national and international audiences.
Responding to San Antonio's need for teachers who can offer children the best literacy instruction possible, Henkin established The San Antonio Writing Project (SAWP) as a local, nonprofit organization. SAWP provides literacy training to selected teachers who attend a summer institute and receive ongoing professional development throughout the school year.
SAWP has also hosted annual conferences, sponsored summer writing camps on San Antonio's West Side and developed the Cuentos Project, in which schools encourage students to interview their families and write their stories or "cuentos."
Henkin also extended the reach of the SAWP and her extensive knowledge about teaching literacy to South Africa, partnering with the University of Limpopo for ongoing training. She spends time each in local elementary schools where she has established professional development sites and where she observes UTSA students working toward their teacher certification.
Henkin also links her literacy expertise with service to the religious community, conducting training for literacy volunteers who work in local school districts and taking UTSA students to the San Antonio Holocaust Museum. Finally, Henkin has a long and active presence in the National Council of Teachers of English, a national literacy organization.
Associate Professor Cheryl Linthicum received the President's Distinguished Achievement Award for Advancing Globalization.
An associate professor of accounting since 1999, Cheryl Linthicum teaches financial accounting and international accounting to both undergraduate and graduate students. She is recognized throughout the United States for her expertise on the implementation of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) by United States domiciled firms.
Linthicum spent the academic year 2005-2006 working on IFRS issues at the Securities and Exchange Commission; she was awarded an unprecedented second SEC fellowship in 2007-2008. She now sits on an advisory committee that is working on including IFRS topics on the Uniform CPA exam. Linthicum also is working to include IFRS into her department's undergraduate curriculum.
The incoming president of the International Accounting Section of the American Accounting Association, Linthicum is in demand as a speaker at conferences and presentations. She served on the International Programs committee that helped obtain international accreditation for the College of Business.
Associate Professor Shelley E. Roff received the President's Distinguished Achievement Award for Core Curriculum Teaching.
Shelley Roff is attracting large numbers of majors and non-majors to her classes in architectural history. One colleague noted that Roff "has an engaging ability to bring the buildings, art and people of the period of her courses to life." Her enthusiasm, passion and innovative teaching is engaging undergraduate students in critical thinking about and appreciation for historic architecture.
Roff is one of few faculty members nationally who is incorporating virtual reality modeling of historical buildings into freshman and sophomore courses.
She brings a background in structural engineering and computer technology into both the undergraduate classroom and Honors program. Research awards have resulted in the initiation of URBIS, a virtual simulation research lab for the study of contemporary and historical urban environments, which she uses in her core curriculum classes.
"Enthusiastic, encouraging, and supportive" are a few of the words her nominators used to describe this influential teacher and mentor.
Roff uses her research and connections in Spain to broaden the educational opportunities of students. A former student wrote that, "She shared the value of her experiences studying abroad and emboldened me to pursue my own interest."
Deborah Wagner, lecturer I, also received the President's Distinguished Achievement Award for Core Curriculum Teaching.
"Every university deserves to have a Professor Wagner." So wrote one former student about the UTSA alumna who is an instructor in the Department of Anthropology.
Her record includes teaching multiple sections of three anthropology courses in the core curriculum. Wagner challenges students to critically evaluate ideas and arguments by encouraging active participation in the classroom. Wagner's courses are constructed to elicit the most from her students as she challenges them to engage the themes central to a particular core curriculum domain.
"She has proven to be one of the most inspiring and influential individuals I have encountered in an academic setting," wrote one student.
Another nominator wrote that Wagner is "a teacher's teacher and a student's teacher. She has that rare combination of a thorough love of her subject, an uncanny ability to connect personally with the overwhelming majority of her students and a flexible pedagogy that allows her to engage students in uncommon depth."
Professor Steven Robbins received the Chancellor's Council Outstanding Teaching Award. The award recognizes distinguished classroom teaching by a senior faculty member.
Steven Robbins, professor of computer science in the College of Sciences, has taught at UTSA since 1975. He conducts research in the areas of parallel architectures and algorithms, distributed computing, visualization and auralization. Robbins has adapted innovative teaching styles to a field evolving over numerous program languages.
During his tenure at UTSA, Robbins has taught an extraordinary range of courses computer science and computer engineering in four disciplines (mathematics, statistics, systems design and computer science). All the while, his focus has been on student success. His teaching experience includes 37 undergraduate courses and 10 graduate courses.
Robbins has had consistently high teaching evaluations, and he has a reputation as a teacher of innovative, challenging and engaging courses. Robbins' interest has always been on educating our students whether it be in the classroom, in organizing curriculum or planning classroom design. He is an outstanding citizen of UTSA, who in fulfilling his responsibilities and has made the department, the college and the university better in every way.

As the final curtain starts to come down on the Twilight screen saga with the release of the final film, Michele Manelis talks to the film's stars about surviving the experience.
It was only four years ago that three relatively unknown young actors appearing in a modestly budgeted independent film quietly wandered into their first round of press duties at the the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills.
Much has changed. Now encumbered by bodyguards and publicists, the three movie stars hit the lobby in a blaze of flashbulbs.
A little later, Robert Pattinson has settled himself into a sofa in a hotel suite where he will remain locked away for most of the next three days giving interviews for the final instalment of the franchise, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn II.
"You know, looking back to when we started, sometimes I have no understanding of what happened at all," smiles Pattinson, running his hand through his carefully dishevelled hair.
Despite a personal net worth of US$60 million ($73 million) and an annual salary of a reported US$25 million, the English actor who will forever be known as vampire Edward Cullen doesn't carry the same swagger or arrogance as many of his peers. He thinks for a moment about why that's so.
"I guess I'm quite a genuinely insecure person, and so it's not very hard for me to stay the same. You've got to be pretty dumb to let your head get big, especially now when everything about your life is reported. I don't understand people who still have a big ego who are actors. It's like, everyone knows who you are. Everyone knows you are just a vain moron, that's what every actor is."
Four years ago, a few weeks before the release of the first Twilight movie, he had said of his future: "I haven't decided if acting is going to be my career. I'll see how this film works out, and if it doesn't, I'm okay with it. I'd really just like to be a pianist and play in bars in the south of France."
Reminded of his comments then, he laughs. "Yes, that was a few weeks before the release of Twilight, and then as it drew closer, I could feel an energy about it. I thought it was either going to make US$12.20 on opening weekend or US$80 million. I bet my manager it was going to make around US$80 million. He thought I was crazy." He smiles. "It took it around US$77 million, and I won $50."
The Twilight franchise, which has now grossed more than US$2 billion, series was adapted from the best-selling novels penned by Stephenie Meyer. The first book was originally optioned in 2004 but it took three years of studio juggling before filming started.
That first film turned Pattinson into an international heartthrob. Many of his fans have cited him as the cause of the ongoing phenomenon. But he's quick to deflect the responsibility.
"No, it's Stephenie's creation. I was part of it but it's not my creation and so I can't claim it, nor do I have any ownership of it," he says.
But surely he's had something to do with it?
"Well, I suppose if you want to be any kind of artist, you have to make the role your own."
But ultimately, the success of the Twilight fantasy series comes down to its against-the-odds love story between an immortal Prince Charming vampire and the ordinary damsel, Bella, whom he must protect.
Quips Pattinson: "Everyone always talks about what a great boyfriend he is, but it's pretty standard stuff. If someone's trying to kill your girlfriend, you'd try and save her. I'm always hearing Edward winning the title of 'best boyfriend' in magazines. I mean, what are these girls' boyfriends normally like?"
The films have come with their own sideshow - the real-life relationship between Pattinson and Stewart since they met on set five years ago. It's been fraught with rumours and tabloid headlines, and has constantly kept the Twilight franchise in the media between movies.
Notably, Stewart's recent affair with her married Snow White and the Huntsman director, Rupert Sanders, caused her to publicly apologise for this faux pas, which is possibly more of a statement on today's culture than it is on her own personal business.
Stewart turned the negative publicity she endured on the part of the fans and media into a learning curve.
She says, "As soon you start considering other people's opinions about your life who know nothing about you, you are going to live a very disjointed, really unsatisfying awful existence. You should probably be a bit more concerned about how you feel about yourself. It sounds completely cliche, but it's true."
Pattinson laments of the perils of fame.
"If this success happened 12 years ago, pre-camera phones, pre-TMZ, this would be the greatest thing ever. It would be a free pass. Look at DiCaprio after Titanic. He could do anything he wanted. It must have been the coolest thing in the world. But now, being famous means you become insanely conservative, terrified about everything," he says. But despite the restrictions it brings his life, he says, "Of course the good outweighs the bad and I have no regrets. If I knew then what I know now, I'd make the same decision about taking on the role." He pauses. "Although, I do miss things like walking down the street. Anonymity is a privilege which of course you don't realise when you have it."
The three leads may be forever associated with the series, but they've managed to carve out separate careers away from their beloved otherworldly characters. For the most part, they've have made smart choices. Pattinson most recently starred in Cosmopolis, Bel Ami, and last year he played opposite Reese Witherspoon in Water for Elephants. He's currently in pre-production on five projects.
Stewart, has been declared the top earning female celebrity with an estimated net worth of US$55 million, eclipsing the multimillion-dollar salaries of Jennifer Aniston or Angelina Jolie.
Taylor Lautner hasn't been as fortunate in his choice of roles, appearing in the ensemble Valentine's Day and the little-seen, Abduction. It must be said, however, at age 20, and with a reported US$40 million net worth, there's no need for any concern. He will next be seen in Grownups 2.
Says Lautner, "When I look back on the first one, I look like a different person. Now that it's over there's a lot of mixed emotions and it feels really, really surreal that it's over. It was such a huge part of our lives. The fact that it's over, I have to pinch myself. It's definitely a bummer."
Stewart, who experienced the biggest change in the series when she transformed from human to vampire, faced physical challenges that had previously eluded her.
She grins. "I finally got to do stunts on this one after I've been sitting around for years watching other people do them. Did you see how high that waterfall was?" She asks, rhetorically. "I did do that jump off it. I really did it."
Stewart clearly enjoyed her time as a vampire. "Everything that really made Bella special as a human is amplified as a vampire. I never felt like I was making this huge leap into fantasyland, it just felt that finally she was taking the next step."
The films have been true to the novels, although the end of Breaking Dawn II doesn't follow the book entirely and offers a surprise twist. Stewart offers, "There's no validation like Bella's validation at the end of the story. It was very satisfying."
Having grown up with her character to a large extent, how does she feel about leaving her?
"She's not going anywhere. Movies are etched into our history. They're here forever."
Stewart says she's "relieved" the five-film series is finally over. "If I say I'm excited the experience is complete, it's only because I don't have that responsibility weighing on me anymore. A typical movie, you've got a five-week or even five-month commitment. This was five years. I'm going to miss that 'I wonder how the wedding will look' or 'I wonder what I'll have to do in the birth scene'. Hopefully, I will find that feeling in other projects."
But what will she not miss?
"Oh God, I will not miss having to be so ... perfect. I mean, these vampires are just so ... perfect. I won't miss the contact lenses, and I don't think anyone in the cast would disagree with me there. And the face paint! To look like marble, we just cake this stuff on. I'm not sure that panned out, and I am more than happy to leave that behind."
As for Pattinson, what will he miss the most?
"It's hard to say. There's something familiar and nice about returning to a set where you know everyone. At the same time, what's nice about acting on a movie is leaving everything behind and starting something new."
The four previous Twilight movies haven't been a case of hit original and declining interest in the sequels. Here's how the series as fared at the international box office in the past four years:
Twilight (2008) U$S392.6 million (NZ$480.7 million)
The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009) US$709.8 million
The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (2010) US$698.5 million
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 (2011) US$705.1 million

text: In principle, I don't mind equestrian sports because it's almost like a pairs team - two athletes working together. But you're right, it's a very expensive sport (then again, the same could be said for anything that requires expensive equipment and training), and how many countries participate? The bigger issue is the horse though - they need to be transported in special planes all over the world. I'm sure they are treated well, but it doesn't really seem like something that would be traumatic for the animals. Also, golf would be another one where you can win without being fit. There are certainly some strong golfers, but there are a lot of chubby golfers and guys that don't look particularly fit too.

Tansy....a plant used in the old days stuffed into mattresses, hung on windowsills to repel bugs. It wards off ants, Japanese beetles and potato bugs.
I'm gathering some this weekend to start an experiment on my two infested SHB hives. I will also be seeing if it works on varroa. It may or may not work on my hives in my area but that doesnt mean it may or may not work somewhere else. Drug companies test their products on people, males, females, children, in different geographic areas, different ethnic groups, rich poor, different age groups to find a common answer or a niche where the drug may work. I'm posting to see if others out there would be willing to give it a try. For example: it might work better in arid climates than humid climates, better with Carni's, Russians than Italians, better fumigated or in a smoker or ground up and sprinkled....you get the picture.
Any feedback from trying this out is appreciated!!


text: I drove by a couple of Chevy dealers over the weekend and saw one have a 2014. I pulled in and asked the salesman if I could take a look at it. I did let him know that I was not in the market for a 2014, but I have to go to a dealer to actually look and touch one. The salesman said no problem and actually asked me if I wanted to take one for a test drive. The only 2014 they had on the lot was an LT crew cab short bed version. Compared to my 2013 I will have to say that the interior is exceptionally quiet. The MyLink and new DIC is really awesome as well. I would have really liked to test out an LTZ model, but the LT will have to suffice. The new Ecotec3 engine is more powerful and has better acceleration than my 2013 as well. The new truck is noticeably longer and larger than the 2013 model. With me having the front drivers seat adjusted to me the rear passenger behind me has plenty of room, my 2013 is a touch cramped when I'm driving. The bad thing is the LT model I tested had a sticker price of $42,300, YIKES, my LTZ had a sticker of $44,000. Makes me wonder how much a fully loaded LTZ with all the options will cost, $53,000!!!! All in all a really nice truck.

Este and DiPiazza were undefeated in six preliminary rounds, defeating teams from the University of Wisconsin - Oshkosh, Wheaton, Century and Loyola-Chicago.
In the elimination rounds, they overcame teams from Cumberland and Ferris State, finally losing to a team from Century College. Este won 13th speaker among 90 debaters.
Freshmen Jacob Alford and Andy Pennington placed 11th and 12th among 40 debaters in the open, advanced level of policy debate. With a 3-3 record, they narrowly missed progressing to elimination rounds. Alford and Pennington defeated teams from Case Western, Kings College and Miami - Ohio.
The UTSA debaters' next outing takes them to the University of West Virginia for the Junior National Championship Tournament in Morgantown, March 2-6.

hold the barrle up to the cloudy near the sun. SIght the bore, you will be surprised at how accuratelty the eye can detect a bent bore.
I started working on this again I got my 1 1/4" OD non concentric blank in the lathe and after a lot of shaking of the entire lathe I finally got it round but it was a job. I made a pilot and then used a dog to drive the barrel and just used the live center on the other end. Im pretty sure im with in .0005 on the run out but it really wont matter to much if its a little more. took about 3 hours to get it done. Im concerned about the amount of stress imparted from all the cutting and all that stuff wonder if the barrel is even straight any more. Im going to try to cut the chamber with a boring bar after I use a piolted reamer to cut the bullet leade/ free bore. whats the worst that can happen? This will be a while untill I can aford the reamer for the bullet leade.
hold the barrle up to the cloudy near the sun. SIght the bore, you will be surprised at how accuratelty the eye can detect a bent bore.
there is alot to be done yet before it comes out of the lathe. it takes a lot of time to cut it slowley enough to keep the temps down. I will be cutting of both ends before the final profile as i suspect the ends are likely a differant ID now from all the metal being cut away.
I see hornady now has the 44 bllet in a 225gr. that will help the recoil some and give it more speed and flatter trajectory. I really need to get this project done.
Hornady Manufacturing Company :: Bullets :: Handgun :: Choose by Bullet Type :: FTX®
Well its been 4 years an I have started looking at this project again. Im not sure here so go with it. Im basiacly held up on the chamber I know it will work just need to finish it. the barrel is profiled
Do you have a chamber drawing done? If so we can make a chamber reamer.

Oddly enough, I was just thinking about this project. The ???? is basically a stretched .44 Auto Mag.
I've seen a couple of AR builds in .44 Auto Mag, which is the same basic thing as the ????. except shorter. Starline makes Auto Mag brass, or you can cut down .308 brass and ream the neck. Hornady .44 AMP die sets are about $70, but the RCBS neck reamer rig is steep.
The original .44 AMP literature claimed a 240 grain bullet at 1600 feet per second. The factory later backed off to 240 grains at 1250 fps, apparently due to the hot load battering the pistol. There were never any SAAMI specs for the .44 AMP, so reloaders generally kept loading them up until something broke.
Now, interestingly, the .30 Carbine is 1.65" long. So is the .50 Action Express. One of the "build an AK" booklets I found long ago had a .50 AE build using .30 Carbine magazines; the author said it worked fine.
If the mag feeds a .50AE it should feed a .44 AMP too. They're the same length. So is the AMT 10mm Magnum (NOT the 10mm Auto!). The .45 Winchester Magnum is a bit shorter, as is the 9mm Winchester Magnum. And there are a bunch of wildcats of Auto Mag length - .22, .25, and .30 Lomont, .300 Auto Mag, .41 Jurras Magnum, .475 Auto Mag, .40 KMP, and 8mm KMP (which uses unmodified 8mm Kurz brass). And, of course, the .357 Auto Mag...
.30 Carbine mags came in 10, 15, 20, and 30 round capacities.
I know, it's not directly related to the ????, but this was the best place I could think of...
ill be off line for a or two to adress internet provider issues . when i get back Id like to maybe work on a reamer idea as well as oter issues on this round
I know we can get a reamer done for you. Straight walled case reamers aren't hard to make. Here's a couple reamers I made recently for a custom bushing die set. The chamber reamer will look about the same, only with a case mouth step and rifling leade. Included is a basic drawing of a reamer blank that I spoke about in the PM. The case body length area needs actually be longer than the case is, and the freebore area is going to work out to be around .150" long or so and .431" diameter. You can also make the pilot shorter if you want, but I would keep it at least .5" long.
i need to decide if i want some more taper in the chamber or not. Its should be the same as a 444 marlin reamer except shorter an the area were the bullet seats ( neck ) would be straight. im using 444 dies so there is no reasint he chamber would be to much differant. I likely will need a special die also or at leat a way to or form the neck section seperatly down. Im still thinking a pas through a 444 marlin die would do an intial resising an then just size the very end with a 44 mag die possably honed out to compensate for the thicker neck. i cant recall what happpend to using a lee factry crimp die in 444 marlin witht he bottom shaved off? i need to go back an read.
the 410 has a barrel shroud that extends past the breach to allow the rounf to tip up high then be guided down . im not sure if this would beed ok or not. were trying to stick a bllet in a holt thats only about .010 bigger than the cases OD. it might be a bitch toi get it to feed ok.
a shroud could be duplicasted or even pressed on a non shrouded barrel or some thin or even added to the inside of the dust cover . bit the bolt has to clear it an the 410 bolt is a little differant from a standard ak bolt.

Vote no to government control, interference
Vote no to government control, interference
As union membership has fallen all across the country, unions have become increasingly aggressive in trying to grow its numbers. In Minnesota and across the country they have turned to organizing recipients of government benefits as their latest ploy to increase their coffers.
HF950\SF778 sponsored by Rep. Michael Nelson and Sen. Sandy Pappas would do just that – attempt to unionize small business daycare providers in Minnesota.
A recent poll of daycare providers shows 85 percent do not support the effort, but that's not stopping this train wreck from happening. It is all political payback, and the DFL Legislature and Gov. Dayton own the unions for the millions they spent to support their elections.
The legislation would authorize AFSCME\SEIU to collectively bargain with the state on behalf of daycare providers and (of course) collect mandatory union dues. Daycare providers would not even get a secret ballot vote on unionizing — unions would merely collect publicly signed cards, making possible this type of fraud:
In 2011, a Minnesota childcare provider was approached by part of a door-knocking campaign for forming a childcare union in Minnesota. She was asked to sign a card to receive more information on the campaign, but she later learned it was actually a union authorization card.
These tactics inspired the vice president of Minnesota AFSCME Local 3400 to resign in dismay earlier this year.
Forget jobs and the budget. DFL bills to increase government control over every aspect of our lives are coming at breakneck speed this legislative session. If you care about small business' freedom from forced unionization, the quality, cost and availability of childcare and home care, and the right to provide education and care for your family members without government interference, then contact your legislator and tell them to vote NO on HF950\SF778.

Sullivan County highway commissioner in bonding controversy
SULLIVAN COUNTY, Tenn. - Bobby Manning was appointed as the Interim Sullivan County Highway Commissioner on December 23, 2013 following the resignation of former interim commissioner Terry Shaffer.
News 5 learned anyone appointed to that office is required to get bonded.
We asked Sullivan County Attorney Daniel Street about that process.
"What a bond is, somebody pledges that if Bobby Manning does anything wrong that costs the county money that they're going to cover for it up to $100,000," said Daniel Street, the Sullivan County Attorney.
But as of Tuesday evening, 44 days after his appointment Street tells us Manning has failed to get bonded after at least 3 failed attempts.
"You've got to produce the bond or you can't perform your functions, for whatever reason Bobby has been unable to be bonded. I advised him of that problem," said Street.
Street says there are two reasons a person wouldn't get approved for a bond either because of a criminal history or bad credit.
Manning says he doesn't have a criminal record, and while his credit isn't perfect, it's good.
"I am qualified and certified to run this highway department, and I look forward to running it. I just haven't got the bond yet," said Bobby Manning, Interim Sullivan County Highway Commissioner.
Street tells us Manning agreed to a 5 p.m. Tuesday deadline to be bonded, but we waited at the county attorney's office until 6:30 p.m. and Manning did not produce a bond.
"So if he is unable to produce the bond this in my opinion the seat will be vacant," said Street.
As of late Tuesday evening Street tells us that a bonding company will grant Manning a bond for around $8,000 dollars which is well above the average bonding rate for a highway commission.
At this point the county has to negotiate how much they'll pay for Manning to be bonded, after that's complete Manning would have pay the rest of the money out of pocket.
Now the county commission could appoint a new person as interim highway commissioner until the August elections when the voters will decide.
This latest controversy comes less than a week after Manning laid off 7 workers at the highway department citing budget cuts.
Manning and the county attorney tell us that they don't believe these latest revelations are connected to the workers' termination.
It's not known whether these latest findings will call into question Manning's actions during his time as highway commissioner.

text: I have six hives in my backyard near a woods and have had them for three years now. This year, they seem to be going for my hair and visitors' hair when we are anywhere within 20 feet of the hives. I got one out of my hair and then it flew over and got in my girlfriend's hair. We did not use the same shampoo, so it is not the fragrance. If I am near the bird bath near my house where the bees come to get water, they never go for my hair. This has never happened before this year. Has anyone else experienced this or have any idea why they are going for the hair? Thanks for you advice - Jim

Daniela is a caring, straightforward hostess who has placed in us a lot of confidence. Thanks to helpful information we have found us the most marvelous. The location is very central and convenient. We felt very at home in her apartment, Tel Aviv has us excited and we look forward to the next time ... happy again in Daniela's apartment.
Daniela ist eine fürsorgliche, unkomplizierte Gastgeberin, die uns sehr viel Vertrauen entgegengebracht hat. Dank ihrer hilfreichen Informationen haben wir uns bestens zurecht gefunden. Die Lage ist sehr zentral und zweckmäßig. Wir haben uns in ihrem Appartement sehr zuhause gefühlt, Tel Aviv hat uns begeistert und wir freuen uns schon auf das Nächstemal...gerne wieder in Danielas Appartement.
I spent two days of my honeymoon with my husband at Daniela s place. She was always very quick with responding, very friendly and the apartment was easy to find. It's very well located, directly at Carmel Market. A walk to the beach takes 10 minutes. I would recommend this flat to other people. Thanks for your hospitality Daniela!
Reviews for this host's other properties
Danielas flat is situated in an interesting young and safe quarter. How often we stayd on the fantastic balcony to look down at the people . Also the beds were very comfortable. The flat is realy near to the beaches, only 15 min by foot. And every thing you need : Daniela will care for it !!!
great apartment in a very very nice area!
we had a great time!
The owners are very helpful and easygoing
However, you should know that the apartment is located above a bar , which can be very noisy
If you´r searching a nice and comfortable apartment in the center of the coolest neighborhood of Tel Aviv, than Daniela´s & Nimrod´s flat will be a perfect choice for a very reasonable rent.
It was clean, spacious and well equipped for our demands.
We arrived late in the evening and had dinner with Daniela & Nimrod, which was for us a great first impression of Israel and a perfect start into fantastic holidays.
They are very nice, kind, helpful – and cool. On the day of departure, they let us stay in the apartment as long as we need and organized a taxi (on Shabbat !!) for a very fair price.
I hope to visit Tel Aviv a second time, to stay in this cosy apartment and to meet Daniela and Nimrod again. WIMDU managed also everything excellent.
Everything Great. We are all very happy.
Alles Super. Wir sind alle sehr zufrieden.
It was a perfect stay ! Daniela was very friendly, helpfull The flat is in a very interesting area : Florentine is a nice area, near by Jaffa, peaceful and a good spot to discover Tel Aviv
Daniela was a wonderful hostess. We have had a very friendly and helpful contact with her, before our trip to Israel and during our visit in Tel-Aviv.
The flat was clean and practical. It is situated in the centre of Florentine, where we found a lot of shops, bars and restaurants. We liked to stay in this area of Tel-Aviv. Most of our inquiries we could do by feet, sometimes with a bike. A terminal for rental bikes is just in front of the entrance.
We liked to stay there and we can recommend Daniela very much.

Rose Mendez
(photo taken Oct. 4 at 80th birthday party)
Inspiring UTSA employee Rose Mendez dies at age 80
By Viviana Rojas
Associate Professor of Communication
(Jan. 19, 2009)--Editor's Note: Viviana Rojas interviewed Rose Mendez after her retirement party last fall and was in the process of writing a story for UTSA Today about her life and impact on the UTSA community. UTSA Today did not learn of Mendez' death until after the memorial service, but it seemed appropriate to proceed with the story, including the sad news of her death. For information on memorial donations in honor of Rose Mendez, contact Trevino Funeral Home at (210) 434-0595.
Rosa G. Mendez, a recently retired UTSA facilities services employee, died Jan. 7 at age 80. A UTSA employee since 1992, Mendez collapsed Dec. 31 from a massive heart attack while leaving campus, after completing her last day of work before retirement. She was under hospice care until her death.

Known as "Rose" to her many UTSA friends and co-workers, she encouraged everyone she knew to "always make the best of life." Additionally, she was a founding member of the UTSA Staff Council.
Three years ago, Mendez announced she would celebrate her 80th birthday on Oct. 4, 2008, with family and friends. She planned everything carefully. She rented a big salon with ample parking spaces and mailed the colorful invitations. Two hundred family members, co-workers and UTSA colleagues met to celebrate her vitality and a life devoted to service. She showered the guests with traditional Mexican food, good music and two huge birthday cakes -- and even danced to the rhythm of the Mariachis.
After Mendez finished high school, she attended Durham Business College in San Antonio for two years. She worked part-time at the Solo Serve retail store while in high school. After graduation, she was a medical secretary at Bexar County Hospital, now University Hospital. She then worked for the public health system as a statistician, and then as a mortgage service officer for the City of San Antonio.
Retiring once in 1990, Mendez went back to work in 1992 at UTSA. She worked in the Humanities and Social Sciences Building on the 1604 Campus and during the last four years in the Multidisciplinary Studies Building, working 5 p.m. to 1:30 a.m. She liked the nights because she thought it was easier to do the cleaning job. She also was an active participant in UTSA committees and assisted in the creation of the staff council. She proudly told colleagues that she was on the committee that interviewed four candidates for the UTSA presidency. Last year, she served on the Council for Business Affairs.
Mendez was a familiar face to political science and sociology professors, as well as the staff of the Office of Research Integrity and Compliance and the Office of Sponsored Programs, among others. She was polite, engaging, communicative and interesting. Her bilingualism was a plus because she could easily connect the Hispanic and Anglo cultures and represented a symbiosis of both worlds.
At work, she would dress for every celebration. But, her life was not all work. During Fiesta San Antonio, she would take off the 10 days and attend the Night in Old San Antonio celebration and the parades.
Rose was funny and lucky, too. Mendez said, "I am not much of a TV person. I love plants, I love to read mystery novels and I love to play bingo at Plaza del Rey on weekends." She liked to play at the casino in Louisiana and, once in a while, would make an overnight trip by bus to play -- often coming back with twice as much as money as she left with. She dreamed of going to Las Vegas after retirement, but it had to be by bus because she wouldn't fly.
Rose was the youngest of 16 children in an old San Antonio family; her grandparents were born here. "All my brothers and sisters are dead. I am the last one," she said. However, she always had a positive outlook toward life. A few days after her birthday party she said, "I am really looking forward to my 100s. If I ever retire, I plan to do volunteer work because there are many places where you can do good."
"I am very happy, very active and I love my job," said Mendez. "I have made lots of friends, who are students, faculty and staff." She kept working because of a doctor's recommendation to stay active. "I want to do this, and not just sit down at home."
Rose Mendez' advice to students was: "Always do the best you can do -- study and always be optimistic, never give up."
Her advice to the rest of us was: "Remember, yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today God has given you a gift. Make the best of it. Do good and enjoy life. That's what you have to keep doing."

One more thing.. Given the circumstances of Law's plans, the Strawhat alliance, the Kid/Apoo/Hawkins alliance, Donflamingo's debt to Kaidou, Luffy's threat to Big Mom and the bomb in the tamatebako box... is it possible that somehow Kaido will be pitted to fight against Big Mom?

dang interesting discussion, it brings alot to light and of attention of things i had overlooked...like why was shanks in east blue on that specific island, maybe Gol didnt have a df(which would make him an insane beast like no other, notice when they speak of whitebeards power they always say "he was the only to fight/equal? gol rogers" not, its always in comparison to Rogers), But if Rogers did have a df it would have sprouted next to him upon his death right?(or is that only for artificial ones) so id guess the marines would have it? if not my guess is Dragon somehow acquired it and his wind or weather powers were Rogers which is part of the reason he is now labeled the most dangerous man in the world....i speculated maybe the darkness fruit was his(thats y bb wanted it so bad) but someone would have def mentioned it by now(same with the Gomu Gomu no mi)/and speaking of the VOID CENTURY(lol) im thinkin Oda might go down a highly advanced tech civilization during that timesince he said he really wanted to make a manga based on a futuristic city and stuff. and i think thats all i got

Well, things are a bit slow this week since OP is on break, so I figured I'd use this opportunity to re-post a theory I made in the previous chapter thread:
And I still stand by what I said about a cyborg zoan army being badass, too.

^You know, you just reminded me of a wild theory I made back around the time of the Marineford arc that involved Vegapunk using Moria's DF power to make zombie pacifistas. Of course I long gave up on that one, though.
Anyway, the break is over this week, so expect a new chapter thread within the next couple days!

my guess is (if it's even relevant to the story) that shanks was already somewhat famous, but he still wasn't a yonkou. maybe he was one of his generation's supernova? is it known how old is he?

I doubt Shanks was a Yonkou when he lost his arm. If he was an emperor, his reputation would precede him, and that would most certainly intimidate that bandit who was messing with him. Weaklings don't start shit with emperors; it's that simple.

The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors voted Tuesday to support the reinstatement of a federal ban on assault weapons.
A 1994 ban on certain automatic firearms expired 10 years later and attempts to renew it have failed. But some legislators, including Sen. Dianne Feinstein, have pledged to pass a new ban in light the shooting massacre in Newtown, Conn., last month.
Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky recommended that the board throw its weight behind Feinstein's bill, which she has promised to bring to the Senate on Jan. 22, the first day new legislation will be heard.
Since the bill is not yet available for review, the board agreed to support it only to the extent that it reinstates the previous ban.
The board joined several city leaders, including Los Angeles City Attorney Carmen Trutanich, Councilman Eric Garcetti and City Controller Wendy Greuel, in calling for reauthorization of the gun control legislation. City Councilman Paul Koretz has said he will introduce a City Council resolution in support.
The board also voted to send letters to the mayors of all 88 cities in Los Angeles County, asking them to have their councils consider supporting Feinstein's bill.
Supervisor Michael Antonovich was the sole dissenting vote.

Early to mid-August is generally a good time to remove cattle from selected tall fescue pastures and apply 40-100 pounds of nitrogen for stockpiling and later fall grazing. You want to select pastures that have been grazed low or clipped to 3 to 4 inches so stockpiled grass comes from new growth. Well, for most pastures, this isn't a big problem because we pretty much don't have any pasture growth due to the lack of rainfall. Rain last week helped, but we aren't out of the woods by any stretch of the imagination.
Hot, dry weather could have some insects feeding in greater-than-normal numbers on crops like alfalfa, tobacco and some vegetables.
Soon, many vegetables and fruits will be ready for harvesting, and many gardeners will have more produce than they can readily eat. Those who want to preserve fresh, summer foods for later consumption will consider either freezing or canning the harvest. But is one way of preservation better than the other? The answer depends on the type of food you want to preserve.
If proper techniques and correct temperatures are used, frozen foods retain greater amounts of their vitamin content, natural color, flavor and texture.
When we get into the heat of the summer, making sure to still get some exercise, and doing it safely, can be a challenge. It is important to know how the hot weather affects your body, how to avoid heat related illness and when you should stop exercising out in the heat.
How Hot Weather Affects Your Body — have you ever been really red in the face or skin after exercising in the heat? When you exercise your body temperature will rise. When it is hot outside, that also affects your body's temperature.
Make plans to join us for the 2012 Woodland Owners Short Course. This program is a great opportunity for you and your family to learn how to enhance your woodlands and get the most from your ownership experience. Most woodland owners are not aware of the wide variety of organizations and programs available to help them care for their woodlands.
Many middle-aged adults are finding themselves caring and supporting two generations- their children and their aging parents. While caregiving can be very rewarding, it often can bring additional emotional, physical and financial stresses for caregivers as they try to balance a career, parenting and elder care.
According to the Family Caregiver Alliance, 520,000 Kentucky informal caregivers provide 570 million hours of care each year. The estimated value of this care is worth more than $5.4 billion.
Summer is here, and with it many opportunities to be involved in activities such as hiking, running, biking and swimming. It is important during these normally hot and humid months that you drink enough water and stay hydrated.
In our efforts to beat the summer heat it is easy to grab the first drink available. Often this could be sodas, vitamin water, sports and fruit drinks, smoothies, lemonade and sweetened ice tea. These drinks are high in calories and can lead to calorie over load.

A global partnership to assist journalists in distress
Canadian Journalists for Free Expression (CJFE) for the last eight years has been my work on our Journalists in Distress program. Through this program I have had quick glimpses into the lives of hundreds of courageous journalists from countries all over the world. Most of these journalists I will never meet, as I do this work sitting at my desk in Toronto, trying to get details about where they have come from, what danger they face, and what help they need.One of the most rewarding parts of my job at

Like many residents of coastal regions, the citizens of Cutler Bay, Fla., know too well the importance of hurricane relief.
Hurricane Andrew ripped through southwest Florida more than a decade ago, devastating Cutler Bay. It took years to recover. In August 2005, mere months after the town incorporated, Hurricane Katrina hit U.S. soil. More than 20 inches of rain flooded the area.
In both instances, first responders were unable to help residents in low-lying areas. "There was no way to get emergency vehicles into the flooded areas," explains Public Works Director Rafael Casals. "People were trapped."
This year, though, Cutler Bay is ready.
The town bought five surplus school buses from the Miami-Dade School Board for $10 each, and converted them into emergency vehicles stocked with portable generators, traffic cones and horses, stop signs, and barricades. Because of their extra-high platforms, the buses can get to areas that traditional vehicles, even pickup trucks, can't. Plus, "what used to take several truck-loads and manpower to move now takes one bus," says Casals.
Negotiating the purchase for an asset that's normally auctioned off for $15,000 to $25,000 required several meetings with school board staff. Cutler Bay administrators had to promise not to "flip" the buses and sell them to another entity for a profit.
Retrofitting the buses, on the other hand, was fairly easy, requiring a coat of paint and taking off bolts to remove seats. The paint is of the durable, mildew-resistant variety used on airplanes (Dupont Emron Paint), and was donated by the contracted painter, a citizen who wanted to do his part to help.
The Public Works Department houses and maintains the buses, and all public works, parks and recreation, and police department employees are certified to drive them during emergencies.
The town also installed emergency generator switches at nine high-traffic intersections that will allow signals to continue operating during power failures. Instead of two police officers directing traffic at each intersection, public works or other town employees transport emergency generators by bus to the intersections. Only one person is needed to monitor each generator. The town plans to add the electrical switches to nine more intersections next year.
The buses were retrofitted just in time for the height of the 2008 hurricane season, which began in June and ends next month. As of press time, Cutler Bay has stayed out of the eye of the four-plus hurricanes that have threatened the Florida coast, which is fine with Casals.
He'd much rather see the buses used for special events such as parades and park district field trips, knowing his town is safe for another season.

Deadly stretch of Interstate 25 raises concern
Two fatal crashes in two weeks follow previous serious accidents
EL PASO COUNTY, Colo. - The Colorado State Patrol is paying attention to a dangerous stretch of Interstate 25 between Colorado Springs and Fountain.
The concern comes after the second traffic fatality in as many weekends in that area. Pamela McCollum died in a rollover crash near Mile Marker 134 just after midnight Sunday. David Collas, 19, was killed in a rollover near Mile Marker 132 a week earlier, although investigators said icy conditions were a factor.
"Obviously, that's part of a road that we're very interested in," said Sgt. Rick Hoffman of the Patrol. "Because of our crash picture down there, we try to have a trooper (on patrol) at all times during the day and night."
Hoffman said although it may seem there have been an unusually-high number of serious crashes there, that actually isn't the case.
What the two recent crashes had in common is that both vehicles rolled into the median, and none of the four passengers and drivers involved wore seat belts, according to the Patrol. Three of the four people were ejected from the vehicles and McCollum was partially ejected.
However, members of McCollum's family said the Patrol told them a seat belt likely wouldn't have saved her life.
Hoffman said many of the accidents in that area happened in the southbound lanes where the speed limit increases from 65 to 75. He said that can contribute to crashes for some drivers.
"After driving at 65 through city traffic, you might be (distracted) talking, looking down at the radio or talking on a cell phone," Hoffman said. "When that happens, people tend to drift to one side of the highway or the other. At 75 or 80 mph, it's very difficult to correct that. Some drivers over-correct, and that leads to serious crashes."
Hoffman also cited the bowl-shape of some sections of the median, as a factor in crashes. Some guardrails have been installed, but Hoffman said guardrails don't prevent all serious crashes, and that guardrails work best when medians are flat.
"The best safety advice is slow down, be alert and always wear your seat belts," said Hoffman.

Your Nightlife Out to Sea
Crystal on her Port Paradise Cruise adventures in the Bahamas
Until last weekend, I'd never been on a cruise. Sure, there's the occasional friend with a boat, which never hurts during our scorching Chicago summers. And I've enjoyed my fair share of booze cruises, those three-hour outings that always feel like a week (partying with that many strangers midday will do that to you). As one of the four Playmate hosts on Bud Light's Port Paradise Bahamas trip, I can now officially check "cruise" off my bucket list. Let's just say that after four days and three nights on the Atlantic, I'm still trying to make the swaying in my head stop. Worth it? Hell yeah.
Launch Gallery
Though it may have been one big Bud Light haze for all the 20- and 30-something partiers (plus the one adorable 80-something couple), the girls and I had a jam-packed itinerary of obligations and appearances before we were really allowed to let our hair down. With a "work hard; play hard" mentality, Tiffany Selby, Irina Voronina, Hiromi Oshima and I put in hours of autograph signing, contest judging and blackjack dealing on the ship's recreated Playboy Club, fueled by the promise of free-flowing cocktails and backstage partying with the cruise's featured performers: Incubus, Pitbull and Matt & Kate. I know, I know: Poor us. What can I say…it's a tough job being a Playmate, but someone's gotta do it.
Seriously though, I'd be lying if I said the trip wasn't an utter blast. Still, I think I learned that I'm good for about three days at sea—max—before I'm itching to get back on land.
What are your guys' thoughts on cruises, booze-y or otherwise? Send me a note on my twitter feed or leave a comment below!

Neighbors helped nab a suspected thief in late September, after they saw people carting off pickup loads of items from a home and yard in the 700 block of N. Bryan.
Churchwell has been in jail since he was arrested Sept. 29, held on a $12,500 bond. On Thursday, another $10,000 bond was applied to his case.
In the initial arrest, police responded to the neighbors reports around 9 a.m. and they were able to find Churchwell, who was driving the pickup. Churchwell said he was cleaning up the property at the owners request.
However, the owner, Karl Kirkland, told police he didnt give anyone permission to be on his property.
Apparently, Churchwell solicited help of several people who thought he was legitimately cleaning up the property, Police Lt. Steve Reeves said.
At the time, Reeves said several pickup loads of stolen merchandise were recovered and Churchwell was initially charged with burglary and theft by taking.
After more investigation, police believe there are at least three victims of the theft. So far, stolen items in the latest charge add up to about $615, police information officer Rodney Brown said.

This year is a really dry year for us in South Central Virginia. After the Tulip Poplar bloomed in early May it quit raining all together. It probably hasn't rained an inch since then. We had a really good
flow of nectar in early May but now since everything has dried up there is nothing much for the bees to do. The sourwood is starting to bloom which will provide the bees with something again to do. We really only have what you might call two major flows with poplar and sourwood with about 6 weeks inbetween them. My question is: What should I be doing between these 2 major flows
with it so dry? The bees are going into stores for food. They surely are not drawing
any comb. Should I be feeding? Or what?
Thanks, Duane in VA.
