The 3 days stay at Monicas Appartment was excellent for us. We felt very well and comfortable. Monica is a very nice and friendly person. She gave us very good informations and tipps, all around Barcelona. Thanks for everything!
I highly recommend this place. The apartment is clean, the room is very nice, and the bed very comfortable. The terrace is large, and has a nice view. Monica was very friendly and helpful.
Lovely place. We enjoyed our stay. Monica was very nice and friendly.
Monica's place was fantastic. My flight came in late and Monica was gracious enough to let me check in late and still give me a tour of the place and information.
The red room, like all the rooms are clean with a lot of light and a great place to be in.
The location was great. I did a lot of exploring by foot, but there are also two metro stops very close by, grocery shops, bakeries, etc.
The kitchen is fully equipped and I could cook meals there.
I came in January, so tends to be colder, but Monica gave me a great space heater and a very warm duvet.
I would recommend this place to budget travellers.
The apartment was very pleasant,comfortable and clean. Monica was always helpful. I would come back! Thank you Monica!
Very good room, good and central location. I would book this room again !
I had a pleasant and nice stay in the 'Red Room'. The metro station was near as well so it was relatively easy to get to the city center and further sights (like Sagrada Familia)! All in all it's a good stay while you're on travel in a big city like Barcelona.
Nice clean room in a nice neighbourhood only a 10 minute walk from the Sagrada Familia and easy metro access to the old town. The room was quite hot as there was no air con and only a very small fan; so if you're visiting in the middle of summer, then you may want to consider the heat, but apart from that we had a very comfortable stay!
We had the best time ever,Monica rocks!

Rape Charges Against Wikileaks' Assange Dropped, Site Secures Serving

Julian Assange, convicted computer criminal and founder of the controversial website Wikileaks, was briefly charged with rape by Swedish authorities. The charges have since been dropped, but he's still under investigation on allegations of molestation.
(Source: AP)
Assange's packed trip also allowed him to sign a partnership between Sweden's Pirate Party and Wikileaks. Assange says that the two organizations "share many values ".
(Source: Torrent Freak)
Wikileaks inks serving deal with Pirate Party, known for its support of illegal downloads
It's been a wild weekend for Sweden and the site
On Friday Swedish authorities
issued an arrest warrant
for Julian Assange, founder and commander in chief of
. According to Karin Rosander, a spokeswoman for the prosecutor's office, Mr. Assange had been arrested in absentia and faced raped charges on two separate instances.
Then on Saturday Chief Prosecutor Eva Finne posted an official statement on a government website stating that Mr. Assange is "no longer wanted" and "is not suspected of rape." However, the statement indicates that Mr. Assange is still under investigation on molestation charges.
In Sweden molestation is a sex crime that can apply to nonconsensual sexual contact among adults, as well as with minors (unlike in the U.S., where it typically refers to inappropriate contact with minors). Also, unlike the U.S., the offense is not punishable by prison time.
Sources in the Swedish media said the investigation stems from Mr. Assange's trip to Sweden last week. During that active trip Mr. Assange reportedly had sexual encounters with two women -- aged 20 and 30. Reportedly both encounters were consensual, but Mr. Assange then allegedly engaged in nonconsensual sexual violence. After the women connected and shared their stories, they decided to approach Swedish police. Ironically,
, the tabloid that Mr. Assange recently
signed a deal to report for
, was the first to publish the 30-year-old's account of the situation.
Mr. Assange on Saturday called the allegations a "dirty" trick. He also appears to have
on a
-affiliated Twitter account, "The charges are without basis and their issue at this moment is deeply disturbing."
While Mr. Assange now seems out of serious legal danger, the allegations are certainly embarrassing for Australian native who now finds himself a hot topic in the Swedish tabloid he recently launched a career with. Mr. Assange has had his share of legal troubles over the years, being a convicted computer criminal in his home country.
Besides signing on to write for
, which may help
obtain Swedish journalistic protections, Mr. Assange also found time in his apparently packed trip to sign a pact with
Sweden's Pirate Party
. The Pirate Party, known for its promotion of currently illegal music, film, and video game piracy, will offer hosting service for
Pirate Party leader Rick Falkvinge
, "I'm delighted that we're able to help WikiLeaks. I love opportunities to demonstrate that one of the biggest differences between us and the other parties is that we positively leap at any and all changes to take real responsibility for changing the world, rather than just commission reports and avoiding blame like the archetypal politician."
Mr. Assange says that his organization shares much with the Pirate Party. He states, "We welcome the help provided by the Pirate Party. Our organizations share many values and I am looking forward to future ways we can help each other improve the world."
also hopes the Pirate Party will push for more protections for it in Sweden's Parliament. Mr. Assange states, "We hope that the new Parliament will give serious consideration to further strengthening Sweden's press protection legislation. Western democracies are not always as free as one might think, and freedom of the press needs constant vigilance. In particular, we would welcome Sweden copying Iceland's Modern Media Initiative, something that the Pirate Party also desires."
Currently based in Iceland, Mr. Assange has been the subject of
harsh criticism from the Obama administration
and U.S. military leadership, which claim that his site's massive
leak of U.S. military field memos
from Afghanistan may result in bloodshed. Afghanistan's insurgency, the Taliban, claims that the first round of leaks allowed them to track down and
kill a tribal leader
who was aiding the U.S. The Taliban is known for its terrorist tactics.
Mr. Assange, though, claims that the only solution to eliminating government corruption is complete transparency. He is currently
preparing to release more documents
, even as the U.S. government reportedly scrambles to protect its Afghani informants from the potentially deadly cost of exposure.
"If a man really wants to make a million dollars, the best way would be to start his own religion." -- Scientology founder L. Ron. Hubbard

Not sure about the mag, but I thought those were .308 not .303
I just bought a 1950 Ishapore no 1 mk 303 fo $125. It is in pretty good original condition. The magazine that came with it says made in England and is 5 rd pos. I ordered an original no 1 mk 3 mag before I realized it was Indian made. Will the mag fit?
Not sure about the mag, but I thought those were .308 not .303
yep it sounds like u have a 308, this is mine
a pic of the mag
buying up all the guns and ammo i can just to PISS OFF the douche bag liberals
no they did make 303 rifles at that arsenal, and if its dated 1950 that was before they made the 308s they also made 410 shotguns out of those early 303, I would go through that rifle real good before I shot it, in fact when in doubt take it to a smith
I would also ask this question on this forum these a guys are good real good with enfield
The Lee-Enfield Forum
and for gods sake don't buy any POF 303 paki ammo its all junk
Sprat and sprat1 are one and the same.
Some thoughts:
The Indians made some very good SMLE Rifles, and a 1950's vintage should be among the best in terms of steel, etc.
Take it all the way down, and detail clean every bit that you can reach with a toothpick or bamboo skewer. Let the stock sit out in the hot sun, and continue to wipe away the cosmoline as it sweats out. This might take several days. There are still NOS Stock sets available from Sarco and Numrich if yours is too far gone.
The Magazine you bought will fit, but may need some tweaking. Take your time.
I would hesitate to refinish the metal itself, if you decide that you want to do that then have it done professionally.
If accuracy is an issue, take to to a smith and have it blueprinted. This process includes removing the barrel, squaring everything up, reassembling, and finishing the chamber. Check for muzzle erosion, if that is an issue, counter-bore.
With good .303 and modern projectiles, a rifle that has been worked correctly will give you 10 good shots at 250 yards into a small pie plate with iron sights. I watch guys that can't do that with a new Remington 700 and a scope.
Nice find, Great Price! Find a bayonet for it. Once of the 16" ones from WWI. There are also sources of web gear to match.
Also, find some of the 5 round stripper clips. They are about $1.50 each, but they never wear out. Buy 20-40 and you are good to go.
Imagine whirled peas
Peace, Love, And Superior Firepower
I passed up 1 of those the other day for 250 bucks and 308.
I have British, Aussie, and Indian SMLE's and the Indian's are very well made, In fact, they are often in much better condition than the others. I also have some Indian 2a Ishapores in 7.62x51 / .308 , one of them in scout rifle configuration in the pics thread.
Nice, quality rifles. Mine shoot very well.
I have an Ishapore SMLE rifle and love it. Very nice shooting rifle.
I also have an Indian Enfield in .303; and have swapped magazines with a friend's British Enfield, so it should work. Does anyone else have a yellow stripe painted on their stock just above the magazine? Mine has one and I've been wondering what it's for.

Homegrown: Strengthening Georgia from Within
July 11-12, 2013 at the Georgia Tech Hotel and Conference Center
Presented by Bank of America
From people to products, music to services, what can Georgia grow well "at home"?
While Georgia is integrated into and dependent upon the national and global economy, in a competitive environment in which quality of life, human capital and local production are the distinguishing markers of successful countries and states, being strong at home can be the edge that provides economic and cultural vibrancy.
For information about the program click HERE!
The 2013 Forum will focus on how Georgia can remain a great place to live, learn, work and play through "homegrown" strategies. The Forum will feature thought-provoking keynote speakers and dedicated sessions on our entrepreneurial ecosystem, the intersection of healthcare and education, what the local food movement can teach other industries in Georgia, why we are a music and movie hotbed, how we can grow more technology companies, and the future of energy in Georgia, among others.
The Forum will also feature full discussions on (1) the future of rural Georgia through the work of the 2013 Young Gamechangers and (2) the soon-to-be released Georgia Civic Health Index, a measure of how civically engaged we are in Georgia. Speakers will include:
- Anita Brown Graham, Director, Institute for Emerging Issues, NC State University, on North Carolina, Georgia and what smart states are doing to be vibrant and competitive
- Parisa Khosravi, Senior Vice President for CNN Worldwide, on global examples of countries and communities "strengthening from within"
- Kate Sofis, Executive Director, SF Made, on how manufacturing and companies producing locally-made products can strengthen local economies
- Dr. Lattie Coor, Chair and CEO, Center for the Future of Arizona; President Emeritus, Arizona State University, on boosting civic engagement and why it is important.
- Dr. Ronnie Chatterji, Professor, Duke University Fuqua School of Business, Former Senior Economist, White House Council of Economic Advisors on macro economic trends that Georgia should be considering as it plans its economic future
- Monica Campana, Living Walls, on how street art can boost civic engagement and allegiance
- Jamil Zainaldin, President, Georgia Humanities Council, on Georgia's history as a leader in civic engagement
There is no other gathering like the Forum in Georgia. Decision-makers and idea-generators from business, government and civil society gather to explore emerging trends and form new partnerships to forge a stronger state. At the Forum, businesses have found new clients, elected officials have made new partnerships, and non-profits and foundations have found new direction. Don't miss it!
For details about the program click HERE.
Click HERE to register!
Regular registration: $160.00
Nonprofit/Government: $120.00
One day pass: $90.00
Student: $35.00

Hello to my TDH family :)
I am very passionate about this. This post stems from reading another thread and I just want to have my say. I hope this helps someone.
I have a comment to all of the "vendors". I follow this as well.
"Don't take money until you know you can give full attention to the item ordered"
It is an ethics "thing" and an integrity "thing". You do not have to believe in any religion to know that "Do unto others" makes good sense. I am not a business. I know this. Every time I take an order, I befriend the person ordering. This is not the same as being a checker at Walmart. We are in a community here. We are connected in one way or another. This is not an assembly line. There is a person there, sending me their hard earned income. As of this very date, I have had only two "customers" that I can consider wealthy. The rest of us are just living. Even some of my friends who I consider to have more than I, are losing it, just as we all are in this day and age. To digress, I think the people that have more, are losing more. We are ALL feeling it!
I must admit, there are times when I NEED the money that I make from sewing. I don't think that is a big shock to anyone, but I just make a point not to mention that, except in this instance.
I do not use my orders as a CASH ADVANCE. My customers are not my lending bank. At those times when I can use some extra cash, I just kick it into high gear and sew more. I don't kick it into gear and take more payments. I work more on the sewing, and then take more orders. I contact those who are interested in ordering and tell them that I will be ready to take their payment soon. Then they are ready to send money, but I do not receive the money until ready to start on their particular item.
Most of everyone here has a life issue. If we don't know, then we have at one time, or we know that it can happen at any time. That is what makes the community great. We have compassion. Everyone here has shown so much patience. We all know that it is wrong to bash someone on the boards. That our typing lives on forever and it is not something taken lightly. We have restraint.
But, as a vendor, I must say that we too must have this same ethic and attitude. I am not "special". I do not live with the motto, "I make a product that others can't, and I have special privileges, because I have a skill"
I have no right to take others money and make them wait, without a word about what is going on. A good word, not an excuse, about exactly what is happening. It is not difficult.
I do get somewhat indignant when I hear it has happened to someone.
It may be painful to explain to someone else. Perhaps embarassing, or a myriad of other negative emotions,
But it is possible to tell someone, "I am having some issues" without a big description. And them check in with them every couple of days to let them know you did not forget that you are holding their hundreds of dollars.
If someone has had a problem with a vendor, and done everything they can to resolve it, they have EVERY RIGHT to post here. Not to bash and complain, but to make others aware. It is for information purposes. We all know each other as well, and one person here, may be able to contact the persons involved to help get things resolved. As long as there is no BASHING, I think it is only fair.
Let us also remember...........
Costuming is an escape. The statistics show that people who have less income, donate more. Back in the depression, the board game Monopoly made such a HUGE impact, because people could play it and escape. This hobby accomplishes both. We can donate our time to charities, make people smile, which in turns makes us smile and we can escape.
The money spent on this costume is no "chump change". I have thought about starting a custom, which would be much less expensive, but I have not even attempted it. To make a screen accurate Fett, it is an insane amount of money and time. I never take this lightly.
I hope this is received in the tone that I am trying to express.
Thanks for listening to MHO

Re: COOKIES ANONYMOUS
In response to the Copha questions away, way back on page 10 of this thread (Chocolate Pretzels recipe), Copha isn't generally easily available outside Australia. It's 100% pure hydrogenated coconut fat :-D Good stuff! Entire generations of Australians have been brought up on it! I went hunting once to see if I could find a UK equivalent but the closest suggestion I could find was to buy a tin of coconut milk/cream, let it sit for a while (not sure how long - until the water separates from the fat), then drain off the water and use the remaining creamy solidy bit. I don't think butter would be an appropriate substitute because you'd lose the coconutty flavour. Hope this helps someone!

Self raising is all purpose flour with baking powder added. To make your own just add 2 tsp of baking powder to each cup of flour.

Welcome to the forums, Juanjleslie. Making cookies is generally easy and satisfying.
There are all kinds and if you've got kids in the house, it's a great way to introduce them to baking as it's tasty fun.

Re: COOKIES ANONYMOUS
Hi Juanjleslie, and welcome to the forum from me too.
I agree with Eddie, baking with kids is great, in fact my children never had playdoh. If they wanted to do something like that, I'd make a batch of cookie dough (often with their help ), they'd play with it for a while, then eat the end results, though I always kept some dough back so we would have some uncontaminated cookies to eat

Hi hi!
I've been browsing the forum and posting mostly because I'm not sure where to start on this costume. Information overload D:! I'm not trying to make replica quality props because I simply don't have the money to invest, but I also want the pieces to be sturdier than cardboard or styrofoam. Any thoughts?
The cloth is no problem, I'm just struggling with where to start with the armor props. I have a toy helmet from that I'm going to ding up and have gray underarmor already (if that helps with price range idea)

Update, early morning 4/3.
I have been a busy bee!
Well, here it is! After a brief absence of a saw, I've finally been able to get back to work on this project, and am very pleased to announce that I have finished one of the belts! This is an ESB version, with the faux stitching. Don't ask why a ROTJ guy would make the first belt an ESB.....it's just a well paid belt....errr, I mean well MADE belt!
Anyway, enough with all of the mumbo-jumbo, PICTURES!
And here's what a JEDI version would probably look like, with only 7 pouches.
Now the belt is a little smaller than my size, that's why you can see some exposed velcro on the back. As for the pouches, they are like the real deal, all different sizes. Not anything totally out of line, but some deeper, some taller, ect. No two are identical!

Reviews of this property
The apartment was just perfect and very well maintained . Everything we have needed was present. The view of the ocean was/is breathtaking & beautiful.
Very easy to step in each area of Miami and around. Highly recommended and would go back anytime
One of the most beautiful memories of our lives. All was PERFECT .
the fantastic view, the accessibility, the cleanliness.
Thanks Peter ..
The apartment was just perfect and very well maintained . Everything we have needed was present. The view of the ocean was beautiful and communication with Peter worked wonderfully.
Highly recommended .
I would go back anytime
Lovely appartement with great seeview and all you need for a com fort eBay stay. Would book this again every time!
The apartment was fantastic, had a wonderful view and Peter was incredible helpful, would definitely recommend it!!
We loved that place. The pictures are real but in reality it is even better. We woke up at sunrise – from the bed you can actually see (and hear) the ocean. This alone was just perfect for us.
What we really liked was the personal touch. The unit is fully equipped. Stove, small oven, caffee machine, microwave, a large Fridge, blender etc. There even was a fresh pack of coffee for us. Thanks to that, we could enjoy a morning coffee in bed at sunrise. Next to the fully equipped kitchen and bathroom there are even beach chairs, a volley ball etc. – nice idea. The bed was comfortable. The balcony has 2 chairs and an additional table with chairs, we had a small dinner there and decided it was the best restaurant in Miami Beach ;-) due to the spectactular view. The balcony table is extra high so we could enjoy the view. Nice idea.
Everything worked out fine, the preparation e-mail was very detailed and check in was easy (keys are with security). Valet parking worked well even if this is (for us germans) a bit strange. There is a huge parking garage, so why not park yourself?
The location of the building is good, a perfect place to stay on the beach but being not too far from Downtown. The building has a direct beach access and the beach in this area is quiet (no public parking anywhere near).
If we would come back to Miami we would definitively stay here again.
Beautiful apartment with a stunning view! Very clean and cozy. Peter provided for everything - from coffee to towels to shampoo. Check in and the whole process worked smoothly and we had an amaying time. The beach is just steps from the building and nice and quiet. The condo has a Tiki bar where you can get drinks and food so you don't even have to leave the building if you don't feel like it. We would come back anytime - Thank you Peter!
Well kept apartment with beautiful views and great bed. Unfortunately, only 2 lifts in operation, which resulted in peak hours in this huge building to the fact that even with luggage were the emergency staircase of 9 Floor had to be used. Beautiful beach.
Gepflegtes Appartement mit wunderschöner Aussicht und super Bett. Leider waren nur 2 Aufzüge in Betrieb, was zu Stosszeiten in diesem Riesengebäude dazu führte, dass auch mit Gepäck die Nottreppe vom 9. Stockwerk benutzt werden musste. Schöner Strand.
The description in the offer was in good agreement with reality. The apartment was very clean, spacious, comfortably furnished and the view of the ocean from 9 Floor is huge for us. All this was a precondition for a very enjoyable and relaxing holiday. Particularly to emphasize is that the landlord (Peter) very helpful, correct and friendly entrusted us. After our return to Germany, he immediately inquired by email, if we were happy with everything and are again well received in Germany. The one experiences certainly extremely rare for such rentals. Alfred and Gisela Seel
Die Beschreibung im Angebot stimmte mit der Wirklichkeit gut überein. Das Apartment war sehr sauber, geräumig, komfortabel möbliert und die Aussicht auf das Meer vom 9. Stockwerk aus ist fantastisch. Das alles war die Voraussetzung für einen sehr gelungenen und erholsamen Urlaub. Besonders ist zu betonen, dass der Vermieter(Peter) sehr hilfsbereit,korrekt und freundlich uns betraute. Nach unserer Rückkehr in Deutschland hat er sich sofort per Email erkundigt, ob wir mit allem zufrieden waren und wieder gut in Deutschland angekommen sind. Das erlebt man sicher bei solchen Vermietungen äußerst selten. Alfred und Gisela Seel
We had a lovely stay in this apartment. Stunning views of the Atlantic. The apartment was clean and fresh when we arrived. We had received a lot of information from Peter before we arrived and there was more when we arrived. Enough! That apartment that has a real good host in Peter.
Vi hade en härlig vistelse i denna lägenhet. Fantastisk utsikt mot Atlanten. Lägenheten var ren och fräsch när vi kom. Vi hade fått en hel del information från Peter redan innan vi kom och det fanns mer när vi anlände. Kan verkligen rekomendera denna lägenhet som har en riktig bra värd i Peter.

I don't think I will start another project in the near future. I have far too many already and as things are now I even have problems keeping up with my twin blocks. I did start the 50 fabulous Stars but I can't keep up with them also. I've done Alabama and Alaska is halfway done, laying around for over a week now. So I will stand next to Jan cheering you all on.
I need to make more snuggles. Isa peed on hers this morning and there are only 2 clean ones left. Besides I need to make them a bit longer, specially for Isa. I made one today and the second one is cut. I have to have them ready by tomorrow night so my DDIL can wash and dry them before they go and visit the twins on Saturday.

A friend ordered a Saiga-12 early in December. It finally came in a couple of weeks ago. They were out of stock everywhere he called, at the time.
Two odd things about it:
First, it has a scope rail. That's an interesting thing to put on a shotgun...
Second, Saiga included a proof sheet in the box. The gun was proofed on Christmas Day 2008.
That makes me wonder if the supply problem is with the American importer, not with Izhmash. The gun was over two years old before it was shipped to his FFL.

if ruger could make a "straight" barrel they wouldn't need all that snake BS oil to get one to shoot straight.
prices are coming back "normalish" for the ar-15.
with the ar-15 you can have the cake and eat it too as far as accuracy and light and handy goes.
a barrel swap is as straight forward as turning a nut, bolts, carriers, firing pins, buffers and so on just drop in.
cheap good mags still abound.
now i like the design of the mini, it could have been the US "AK" had they not cut corners everywhere. i could probably make a mini do everything an ar can do but it would be a lot more PITA and work. and the parts selection or lack there of is another problem.
do one barrel change on a mini and then do one on an ar-15 and call me in the morning--LOL!

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
OK I have been busy the past few days and am just catching up, someone please pass me the tissues. No joke I have tears in my eyes as I type this, this group has kept me sane on the long days when I am home on my own and DH is at work.
Apart from my DS and DD you are the "friends" I chat with each week, without this group I would never have attempted either of my two quilts. Thank you so much Anne for keeping us all on track each week and a huge thank you to each and every one of you for just being the wonderful souls you are.
Will post pics of my last two blocks later tonight or tomorrow, the puppies are growling at me, its dinner time for them.
I hope someone chooses another project for us to continue with....
Whew! thankfully you have your priorities straight .... get away and feed those growling puppies!
Now, do us a favour and show us pics!!
..... I can only "imagine" via the avatar! Oh how I wish we could click and enlarge it.
Sew many ideas ... just sew little time!!
QuiltE I only have old photos of my "boys" as soon as I focus the camera they move. My avatar was taken while I recuperated from foot surgery and he stayed on my bed with me all day.
So here are my boys,
Sammy is a Maltese Shitzu cross, he is now 12 and has heart problems. I have had him since he was 6 weeks old and he is the boss. He loves to lie on pillows
Prince is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, he is 8 and hyperactive, he has 2 speeds flat out or stop.
They are so much fun to have around
Cute boys!!! Love both of them. Real characters and strong personalities. Lots of company and they know who loves them...they carry tails, but never tell your secrets...
Mirab they are precious. Patches can't get on the couch anymore, but when he did, he was always in the position that Sammy is in. Are they airing "it" out LOL? Patches is our last dog, I swear. It's so hard watching them age, get health problems, etc. But then I see pictures of other's furbabies or I see a cute commercial and I wonder.......
Imagine all the people living life in peace...(John Lennon 1940-1980)
What wonderfully handsome buddies you have, MiraB!!!!
I SO miss having a dog around ... last one being Patches' cousin!
Though all of mine were the "best" you could ask for.
And what a beautiful scrappy quilt, MiraB!!
Sew many ideas ... just sew little time!!
Mirabelle--thanks for sharing pictures of your dogs. It is nice you can have someone to take care of while your husband is away. I know I enjoy having ours around.
Jan--I had to smile when I read about "Patches being your last dog"...we have already decided we will get another pair of sisters when one of ours dies. We have enjoyed having two dogs around.
JanRN, Sammys legs are too short for him to jump, he just stands in front of the sofa staring at it and if you don't take notice of him he gives you a low growl and like the dutiful servant you are, you pick him up and put him up on the sofa, where he can stay for hours. When he wants to get down you just hear a little bark, like he is saying come here and you go and lift him off.
I know I know talk about being spoilt rotten
I have just been on Carol Doak's website and her Mariners Compass book is now out of print and there are limited supplies left so if anyone was wanting to purchase the book maybe now might be a good time.
I bought mine, I thought I had a copy but I didn't, even if we don't go ahead with this sew along I may still make this quilt in the future
There is also a website called Quilting on the Square which has a free block of the month which is called the Compass Collection, I have been downloading these each month and saving them, it started in February so there are 10 blocks already to download, maybe that is worth thinking about as we wouldn't have to purchase any books, everyone will just need to download their patterns and we could maybe make one a week or one a fortnight

Did Tomi van de Brooke register for the wrong office?
Original post made by [removed], another community, on Apr 20, 2012
All this humor indicates a frustration by voters with the distractions created by Tomi's campaign and supporters in their creed prejudice. There is a growing majority of voters among conservative religious congregations that are deeply offended by Tomi's supporters and their ridicule of faith perspectives.

Poor Hal!! He is so confused.... He doesn't know what he wants.
First he is infatuated with Supervisor Piepho, and now he seems to be infatuated with Tomi.
p.s. jjjj, you are correct; Danville does not have an elected Mayor. The position is rotated amongst the council members for selection. Being a rotated "Mayor" is mostly symbolic and lacks the powers of an elected Mayor. That is probably lost on Hal.

Thank you, Gina, for your sponsored attack brutality.
What was a celebration of humor over that past several days is enhanced by your sponsorship. Within minutes of these posts by your sponsored commentators, volumes of humor were circulating from Alamo to Dougherty Valley. It tells your readers much about the prejudice and preference that will be present at your candidates' forum on April 26, don't you think?
a resident of another community
on Apr 20, 2012 at 12:28 pm
Again with the accusations of attack brutality? My goodness, that is funny! Perhaps if you can't stand the heat it might be time to get out of the kitchen. You see, you don't get to set the rules based on your twisted perspectives. No one is being mean to you, I am just challenging you on your opinions. But there you go, crying foul again. Please Hal, put on your big boy pants if you wish to discuss politics and policy.
This may help you sort things out;
hyp•o•crite (noun)
a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, especially a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.
a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, especially one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements.
Anyone can easily scan your posts here on the Danville Express and see that it is YOU that constantly starts things off by attacking Mary Piepho, Mark DeSaulnier, Tomi VanDeBrook or a host of elected officials as well as issues that you don't agree with. No problem, that is your right. But…The moment anyone defends them, you accuse them of debauchery! Hal, that is text book hypocrisy. If you can't see it, you are in denial.
Not only is it humorous, but amusing that you are right back to trying to convince us all, that so many others from Alamo to Dougherty Valley share your perspectives. Where is this absent army, or do they not vote?
Sorry Hal, you may think you are coy, savvy or clever, but really, you just appear angry, frustrated and obsessed.
Yeah, you made me smile...

Dear Readers,
Have you noticed that Gina C. Allen, President, Embarcadero Media Corporation East Bay, as publisher of this forum, sponsors and protects certain commentators, as psuedonyms, but goes to great lenghts to expose any commentator that posts commentary that is counter to her political and social subservience?
Have you noticed?
I bet that reality to most of you serves as invitation to keep your discussions, opinions and positions private among your neighborhoods and community groups.
Am I right?

Dear Gina,
It would seem that the "bluejays" as jjr, jjj, and jjjj are one of your protected species, even in redundancy. Your readers have shared such humor, in review of this exchange, as an indicator of your selected sporsorship of commentators.
Very entertaining in its clear indications. So how will you work such sponsorship into the moderation of the April 26 event?
a resident of another community
on Apr 22, 2012 at 11:36 am
The one thing that you do well on these forums is exposing yourself in your attempt to expose others.
Funnier yet is your drawn up concern about moderation at an event you won't attend.
In case you missed it, yours is the behavior of a coward.

Let's review (again);
Just because you don't agree with others assessments of you or your perspectives....doesn't necessessarily qualify those "assessments" as insults or attacks.
You can repeat your accusations 'till the cows come home, it changes nothing; The cherry trees are still going to blossom and other people are going to continue to disagree with you. The question remains, are you going to accept certain realities or keep crying about your altered perceptions?
a resident of another community

Dear Gina,
Let's focus this exchange in preparation for your role in the April 26 candidates' event. Certainly, our first focus should be on the candidates and voters with discovery of what they have in common. By separate, private distribution, I have arranged voter demographics to be sent to your Pleasanton offices so you might know the preferences, will and interests of district 2 voters. That should allow moderation of the April 26 event to be done in context to voters' priorities.
Within that documentation is the contrast among local democratic clubs, as Tomi's messengers on "social issues," and how voters view such messaging by democratic clubs. Why this is important is the announced plans to overload the audience with club members and to be vocal in opposition to Candace's presentation "no matter what the content."
But, Gina, the last question is critical, "How will you produce a fair, respectful and enlightening candidates' presentation on April 26?" If you won't control the town square forum to your own definition as "Town Square will continue to be a thoughtful gathering place for sharing community information and opinion," why should your remaining readers expect a "respectful and truthful" candidates' event on April 26?

once again this old fool wants everyone to think he speaks for all
district 2 voters. what is this separate private distribution. he once again shows how foolish he really is by trying to control a meeting the he will not attend.trying to make everyone that reads this space beleive that he is someone very important in alamo and district 2. perhaps this old fool should get out from behind the keyboard and see what the world in downtown alamo is really like. perhaps if he did he might not be as big of fool as he is...

The Long Ranger Medal
Recently, I decided to level this one up. I've been having trouble though. There have been several matches where I strongly believe I have gotten 3 or more kills from 50m or more, but I haven't been receiving these medals lately.
Lets assume my depth perception is off and I'm not very good anyway (fair assumption). What recommendations do people have?
I tried searching and the stuff I found seemed a little outdated. Mostly just tips on how to create 70m in between you and the opponent. I understand now the distance is only 50m.
Also, I'm not great with the dragon. But I'm trying to get better with it.
My loadout is: Dragon, whatever pistol, scoped in, monkey man and sniper as my kb of course. I'm considering using a version of the GMAL instead. I'm not sure tho.
Anyone have advice? Anyone else find their TLR medals not seeming to register?
This is the only booster that's stumped me a bit. Thanks!

Re: The Long Ranger Medal
Personally I found it best to level this in 3TDM with a friend well aware of what you're doing and helping you.
I did Sully's setup with bargain to get T-bolt faster. Since his 3rd booster is for my buddy, everytime my friend died, I was able to see whoever killed him, he also used callout to mark enemies for me and as well guarded my sniper spot.
As for spots, most maps are doable, but I would avoid even trying it in smaller maps like chateau and Desert Village. Just make sure you are a fair distance from enemies. Museum is arguably the best map for it.
Re: The Long Ranger Medal
My class that I used was:
Long gun: Sully's dragon
Pistol: Your choice
Booster 1: Scoped in of course
Booster 2: Ammo award
KB: Sniper
The main thing I would try and do is just lurk around the parts of the map that not many players go to, try and choose long range maps like Muesum or Highrise and if you have a chance always go for the headshot.
Also you only need to earn 3 long range kills per match, so try and take it easy and you should have it soon.
Re: The Long Ranger Medal
Play Lab map 6 and just focus on sniping from one side to the other. You'll be able to get plenty of Long Rangers. It's kinda tedious but also kinda fun because you learn the Dragon way better. How to stay in cover or hit someone else coming out of cover. How to corner shoot with the Dragon (take cover on the wall a little ways away from the edge and then press L1). You'll also start to get a feel for the Dragon's recoil and aim assist (Scoped In makes this easier).
I think the best way is to use a Dragon with reload speed, quickily aim at a target (if they're moving and that's almost always), swing the reticule quickliy towards thge target, and try to time it right. If you don't hit the target with one of the first two shots then release L1 real quick, re-scope the gun, and start the process all over again while reloading when you're clip runs out. This is why Reload Speed is a must for the Sniper. Clip Size is pretty good, too. The aim assist occassionally get sticky and you'll get more markers when it does.
Re: The Long Ranger Medal
1) Favorite maps for getting TLR: Fort, Train Wreck because you can see end to end from opening spawns.
2) Some maps I wouldn't bother trying to get TLR on like Temple or Chateau although it is possible.
3) If you're having trouble with the Dragon Sniper, remember you need to give it a fraction of a second to settle back before firing again, otherwise the aim will be off.
4) If you haven't watched it already, I show some Long Ranger distances in my TLR video:
Re: The Long Ranger Medal
If you're finding Long Rangers difficult, you could always try Syria. However, there's always the risk of getting spawntrapped, with the terrible spawns on that map.
Re: The Long Ranger Medal
Re: The Long Ranger Medal
Re: The Long Ranger Medal
And Crit, I have watched your video. It's really helpful and what I used to determine what 50m is. Which is why there have been times where I swore I got enough kills from such a distance to deliver TLR. Oh well I'll try some more soon.

UTSA Associate Professor Francis Norman with teachers
UTSA receives $400K to train area math teachers
By Kris Rodriguez
Public Affairs Specialist
(July 21, 2005)--The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board awarded $400,000 in grant funding to The University of Texas at San Antonio Department of Mathematical Sciences to assist 125 mathematics teachers in the San Antonio area.
The five grants totaling $400,000 will fund summer workshops reviewing teacher content knowledge in Algebra I, Algebra II and Geometry. The workshops also will also focus on improving the inclusion of minorities and special-needs students in mathematics discussions in the classroom.

"We are still collecting data, but our initial results show the students of teachers who attended last year's workshops are doing much better in the math sections of the Texas Assessment and Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) tests," said Betty Travis, UTSA mathematics professor. "It's the whole issue of closing the gaps, so these students are more prepared when they enroll in college."
Participants in the workshops will be reviewed during the academic year to see if they are incorporating strategies learned this summer into their mathematics curricula.
According to a 2003 Trends in International Mathematics and Science study, 15-year-old students in the United States scored below the average international math score and were outperformed in mathematics in 23 of 38 countries.

Mr. Fogg - Answerphone (new video!)
One man. One song. One video. That's the idea behind Mr. Fogg's brand new clip for Answerphone, from his stunning debut, Moving Parts. Without giving anything away, a bit of back story: Fogg came up with the concept and was told that something like this would cost mad bills, so he ended up ignoring everybody's advice and doing most of it himself. It was done totally live, one shot, with no tricks or cheating. Stick through the first 30 seconds and all will become clear. I am infatuated.

UTSA professor publishes book on Black Madonna
By Ashley Harris
Public Affairs Specialist
(July 2, 2007)--Malgorzata Oleszkiewicz-Peralba, UTSA associate professor of modern languages and literatures, will host a signing for her latest book, "The Black Madonna," from 7 to 9 p.m., Saturday, July 7 at the Borders bookstore in the Huebner Oaks Shopping Center, 11745 Interstate 10 West.

In her second book, Oleszkiewicz-Peralba explores the iconography and function of the Black Madonna throughout history in countries such as Poland, Mexico and Brazil and in the American Southwest. Additionally, she examines the role of Virgin of the Guadalupe and the creation of the mestizo identity in Mexico.
Often seen as a symbol of national identity, resistance against oppression and female empowerment, the Black Madonna is seen as a form of the sacred dark feminine and as the symbol of motherhood and protection. The book investigates the cross-cultural comparisons of the Madonna's influence on local and national traditions.
Oleszkiewicz-Peralba earned bachelor's and master's degree in Spanish and Portuguese from Queens College, a magister in Iberian and Latin American studies from Warsaw University, and a Ph.D. in Latin American literature and culture from New York University. A member of the UTSA faculty since 1995, she also is the author of "Terato popular peruano: Del precolombino al siglo XX."
Another book signing for "The Black Madonna" is Saturday, July 14 at Book Woman in Austin.

But for pure fandom I scream re-sign him, Jacobs come home !!!
But I doubt that he can make an impact, but then again, mistreatment, perceived or real, can be a hell of a motivator...
no matter what I really hope he retires a NY Giant...one of my all-time favorites !!!
NFL Championships : 1927 1934 1938 1956 Super Bowl Champions: XXI XXV XLII XLVI
This is the NFL.com write up on it. He only got suspended
for now.
Excerpt: "The San Francisco 49ers have had enough of Brandon Jacobs' griping. The team has suspended the unhappy running back for the rest of the regular season, citing conduct detrimental to the team.
According to a person who spoke to Jacobs after he was told of his suspension, the former New York Giant is saying he'll only play for one other team â?? the Giants. The person, who spoke to USA TODAY Sports on condition of anonymity, cautioned Jacobs could always change his mind. But for now, he's only interested in a return to the team that drafted him in 2005 and kept him around for seven seasons.
Of course, the 49ers realize they could see Jacobs in the postseason if they release him, which is probably why they suspended him instead. Jacobs also has an intimate knowledge of the Niners' playbook, which would also make him attractive to any team facing San Francisco in the postseason." Read more...
Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience. MB Rule # 1
What play book are the niners talking about Jacobs having knowledge of? Frank gore left....right.....middle... Short pass to Vernon Davis ....... Scramble. Oh... That complex playboy?

I Have a 4 jaw an only a 4 jaw but it wont pass through the spindle on my 9" south bend. I have a 12" clausing but it is out of service for the foreseable future. the steady rest is an issue also as the out of service one is the only one that I have a rest for.
Maybe I should be fixing my equipment instead of building guns for the last 4 years. LOL
I might have to fix the clausing 12" before getting serious about this build. or find a differant barrel. this blank was purchased for my 444 rimless marlin build originaly but I was getting pretty excited about the 44?? that I decided to go with it plus it will use a standard reciver were the other will need a 308 type reciver.
That's funny, I feel like I'm in the same boat! I need to buy a 4-jaw and just don't have the time to get around to it. The 3-jaw that came with my anemic little mini lathe just sucks.

went to a gun show yesterday and found a steel mag marked 223 10 round it is longer than a Bulgy plastic mag so it is possably a 15 round. it had a 5 round follower in it. it wont fit in my 223 varmit build that is fitted for bulgy and pro mags. Im not sure what it is . BUT it will hold a 444?? pretty well and it is steel so I can weld on it.
I havent given up on this project. I have a 44 mag barrel coming for my H&R handi rifle I plan to ream it to 44????WTF and use it for load development it is a strong action incase I get the loads wrong and a cheap way to get another gun+ it will be nice to have once I get the AK project done, things are being stalled due to lack of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. I was hoping to have it done by november for deer season not sure Im going to make it.
Cool! Just getting into the Handi thing and picked up a 30.06 barrel. Now I'll have to be on the lookout for a 44mag. Keep us posted on how it goes.
There fun n cheap to play with im going to rechamber a 223 into a 22-243 middlestead. this will be a 1-9 twist varmit slayer shoots 50 grainers at 4000 FPS APROX, barrel life will be limited but for 150 dollars its worth a try. the graybeard sight has a lot of info on these.

Stopping by from Blog Stalkers Unite.
I used to write out my resolutions and seal them in an envelope not to be opened until Dec 31 the next year, but have not had any time to do that anymore.
I will be posting my results of this year's resolutions on Dec 31 to show how I fared… stay tuned.

Well, my 2008 resolution was to send Frank boxes of Hot Cheerios and I failed to send ONE box, so I guess I break them. :(

My resolution is to gain weight. That way, if I fail to do so, I won't be disapointed. hee hee :P

- Kathyb1960 said...
Can you BELIVE it's already the end of 2008? Where did this year go? I feel like I totally blew this year away. This was gonna be a great year w/ a great job & lose weight. Pffffffff I changed jobs but it wasn't what I thought it was be. Sooooo 7 W2's later...... well I've got a good job. (I worked a lot of temp jobs!)
I don't really make resolutions, but I'm going to try to lose 30 lbs by my parents' 50th anniversary at the end of March. And I'm going to attempt to read the Bible through this year. I actually started in November, doing an online program, and right now I'm nearly done with Exodus (it's chronologically--or however that's spelled).

I typically don't make resolutions, but this year, I have two of them....lose weight (gonna be pretty hard being as though my husband and I are going to start trying to have another baby, so I'm confident I'm going to break that resolution! :) and secondly, the resolution that I hope to be able to keep is to become a better Christian. I know, I know, everyone says that, but I mean it! I attend church every Sunday, I teach Sunday school, etc. but the way that I act when I'm at work DEFINITELY needs to be more "Christian-like" so that's my goal! :)

I do NOT make resolutions. I make a commitment to God every three months during the year and ask His help so I can change what I need to change. Does that make sense? That way I am held accountable for what I said I would do. So far, I have NEVER commited to ask Him to help me with weight loss. I am seriously thinking on that one for this next year.

No New Years resolutions. I tend to break them by Feb. or so. I think I will try to get better at things one day at a time instead of thinking about my plan for the whole year.

I fail miserably at them; always! This year, I am calling it a challenge, not a resolution, and blogging about it so maybe I will do better this time??? Then again, maybe my second blog will just be deleted by mid-year and I'll end up sticking with The More The Murrayer and pretending like the whole challenge thing never happened...we'll see. :)

Oh I make them and break them every year. I am planning on making (and breaking) at least one this year....lose weight!

Hmmmm...sometimes I make resolutions, but don't always keep them..What I like to do is make resolutions for YOU to keep! I think that's a great idea! I'll give you your list when I get back home...LOL

I have a running list in my head that I'm thinking I need to write down to make as real goals. They're not intentionally NY resolutions, but the timing seems appropriate. Thanks for your comment. People can be so rude!

I always toy with the idea...but then, follow through? (what would, based on previous years, NOT happen) Do I disappoint/irritate/frustrate myself more?!
Boy, I sound like a super-duper pessimist.

how about you??
