BRIEF-Benz Mining announces non-brokered private placement & Palisade Global Investments as lead order
* Benz Mining Corp announces non-brokered private placement & Palisade Global Investments as lead order
* Nikkei finds support at 9,400 - analyst * Sharp up more than 2 pct on Qualcomm deal * Paper companies drop on Merrill rating cuts By Ayai Tomisawa TOKYO, Dec 4 Japan's Nikkei share average edged down on Tuesday, trimming gains from a seven-month closing high in the previous session as weak U.S. economic data triggered profit-taking on exporters. The Nikkei was down 0.3 percent at 9,432.88, moving further away from Monday's peak when it pierced the psychologically important 9,500 resistance line for the first time since April 27. Analysts said investors were wary of looming uncertainty over the U.S. economy, which is key to the fortunes of Japan's exporters, many of which rely on consumption in the world's biggest economy. Manufacturing activity in the United States surprisingly contracted in November, hitting its lowest level in more than three years, while there has been no resolution to the country's so-called fiscal cliff. Canon Inc dropped 1.1 percent, Nikon Corp shed 1.9 percent and Toyota Motor Corp fell 0.1 percent. "Investors are cautious about the market's sharp rise in the past few weeks, and as soon as the Nikkei hit the 9,500-mark, trading has slowed down. Investors started taking a wait-and-see mode," said Hiroichi Nishi, general manager at SMBC Nikko Securities. The Nikkei should find support at 9,400 for Tuesday, he said. During the past 2-1/2 weeks, the benchmark has rallied 9.2 percent, led by exporters, as the yen has fallen on speculation the Bank of Japan will be pushed to adopt aggressive policy action after the Dec. 16 election. A weaker yen lifts the value of exporters' overseas incomes when repatriated. The leader of the main opposition Liberal Democratic Party, Shinzo Abe, has been calling for the Bank of Japan to take bolder action, including setting a 2 percent inflation target and embarking on "unlimited easing". The LDP is expected to win the most seats and form the government after the election. "Such positive news for the currency has been priced into the current market," said Kenichi Hirano, a strategist at Tachibana Securities. "Foreign investors will likely hold exporters at least until the election." The currency last traded at 82.06 yen to the dollar, down from its 7-1/2-month low of 82.84 touched on Nov. 22 but still above the 82 yen threshold. A fall below this level could trigger selling in the equities market, analysts have said. Bucking overall market weakness, struggling display panel maker Sharp Corp gained as much as 2.9 percent to 177 yen in early trade after two sources familiar with the matter said it and U.S. chipmaker Qualcomm Inc have agreed to jointly develop next-generation displays. Paper makers lost ground, with Hokuetsu Kishu Paper Co , Oji Holdings Corp and Nippon Paper Group Inc falling between 2.8-3.8 percent after Bank Of America Merrill Lynch cut their ratings. The broader Topix was flat at 781.81.

Christmas decorations
Keen observers may note that I'm not quite up to date with Blogtoberfest. I started out with gusto but ran out of ideas of things to post. As I just said to my husband; it's hard to post daily on a craft blog if you haven't actually made anything! Still, I'm still forging on and will be happy even to make 15 posts in a month as that's at least 13 more than usual!
Last year I was pregnant over Christmas and posted this. Christmas is a special time of year for me and I was disappointed that I just didn't have the energy or inclination to make decorations. It's been my goal for a number of years now to slowly replace a lot of my cheap decorations with nice, handmade ones.
This year I have all the enthusiasm in the world to make decorations and have been stocking up on supplies over the past few weeks. With a four month old, things will take a while so I thought it a good idea to start sooner rather than later.
I spend a lot of time gazing at Christmas craft during the year and round up favourite tutorials and sites on my Pinterest and computer. Today I thought I would share my favourite sites for Christmas craft with you.
Better Homes and Gardens (America) – lots of resources here. Templates, instructions, food, gift wrapping.
Martha Stewart – I'm a bit of a Martha fangirl and turn to her website a lot for crafty and cooking inspiration.
Sew Mama Sew - A good round up of Christmas tutorials.
Bugs and Fishes – felt decorations! I love felt for decorations as it's so easy to work with and very effective. Some lovely things here. I'm eyeing off the vintage baubles for the annual family decoration this year; with an added twist.
Not Martha – tutorials for various things but my main reason for including her is because she made my most favourite gingerbread idea ever!! I'm yet to have a go at making these myself, but I think this year will be the year.
Whip Up – head on over here for round ups of tutorials galore.
Now I'm going to let you in on a secret dream of mine – I really, really want to create Christmas tutorials and have a little Etsy shop that sells Christmas kits. It's been something I've wanted to do for a number of years now but various things have always got in the way. Most of the decorations and garlands I've made over the years have been creations of my own so perhaps it's time to put some of them into words and pictures so you can make some too!

I'm with you on the kits – I would love to do that too. I'm thinking of screenprinting some little motifs for Christmas making this year. Lots of festivities ahead!

Gallagher Takes Second In ECAC 1000-Meter Race
Last Saturday afternoon, Fordham's Kerri Gallagher (Belle Harbor, N.Y./ Bishop Kearney) qualified for the ECAC Championship finals with the fastest 1000-meter time in the preliminaries, while teammate Kevin Fitzgerald qualified for the Men's IC4A Championship 1000-meter with the second best qualifying time.
On March 7, it was reversed, as Fitzgerald won the IC4A 1000-meter title while Gallagher took second in the ECAC 1000-meter at the ECAC/IC4A Championships at the Reggie Lewis Track and Field Center in Boston, Massachusetts. For their accomplishments, both runners were named All-East.
In the women's 1000-meter, Gallagher was edged out at the finish line by Connecticut's Leah Andrianos, who won the race in a time of 2:47.41, 0.45 seconds ahead of Gallagher.
Gallagher's time of 2:47.86, a seasonbest for the Rams, was the second fastest women's indoor 1000-meter time in Fordham University history, trailing only Lauren Gubicza's school record time of 2:45.8 set in 1992.
Two weeks prior to the ECAC Championships, Gallagher won the 1000- meter title at the 2010 Atlantic 10 Championship held at the Univer-sity of Rhode Island while placing second in the mile. She started her day by placing second in the mile in a time of 4:55.76 to earn Second Team All-Conference honors. Later in the day, she came back to take first in the 1000- meters, winning in a time of 2:55.25, almost two seconds ahead of La Salle's Kellilyn Fierras.
On the year, Gallagher recorded Fordham's fastest 800-meter time, clocking a school-record 2:08.56 on February 12 at the Valentine Invitational in Boston. She also has the school's fastest 1000-meter (her time at the ECAC Championship) and mile times (4:55.76).
The men's and women's track programs will now move outdoors as they open the outdoor schedule on Saturday, March 20, at the Morgan State Invitational in Baltimore.

Bunnings and Mitre 10 hardware chains notch up record returns
The country's two biggest DIY and hardware chains have just notched up record profits as the national appetite for home improvement grows.
Mitre 10 yesterday announced an all-time annual sales high of $858.37 million for the year to June 30, up 6.5 per cent on the previous year's $805.47 million and the highest in the company's 38-year history.
Bunnings, headed here by Jacqui Coombes and owned by ASX-listed Wesfarmers, recorded revenue from its operations here and in Australia from its home improvement and office supply business of A$8.6 billion ($10.9 billion) in the June 30 period, up on the previous A$8.2 billion.
Total store sales were up 5.9 per cent, commercial sales up 6.9 per cent and sales growth for the current 2013 year is forecast.
Martin Dippie, Mitre 10's chairman, said the New Zealand-owned and operated co-operative had "topped its rivals and was the number one hardware chain by revenue" and although the economy was slow, the appetite for DIY was powering on as the hardware and gardening supply chain recorded its strongest result.
Chief executive John Hartmann said Mitre 10 was focused on expanding its Mega store format and refreshing its look, product and service offerings in all stores.
Bunnings claimed to be "the leading retailer of home improvement and outdoor living products in Australia and New Zealand" and said it was a major supplier to project builders, commercial tradespeople and the housing industry.
The chain had 206 warehouses, 58 smaller format stores and 36 trade centres operating on both sides of the Tasman at June 30 and is investing to improve its offering. Thirteen new Bunnings Warehouse stores, one smaller format Bunnings and two new trade centres opened in the year.
Mitre 10's Hartmann said stores were growing and being done up.
"It may seem counter-intuitive to the environment we're operating in but our programme of expansion, reinvestment and refreshing the stores and product lines is proving to be a very strong formula for success for our members," he said.
"That programme is powering ahead with a target of 44 Mega stores by 2015 and 85 per cent of our near 100 stores new or refreshed over the same time period."
Mitre 10 will open its 33rd and 34th Mega stores by the end of this calendar year and has opened new stores in the past two months at Hornby in Christchurch and Rotorua.
The first quarter of the June 30, 2013, year was strong, with sales up 9 per cent on a same-store basis. Mega stores were up 15 per cent, Hartmann said.
Bunnings issued a chipper outlook for 2013. "The business is well-positioned for continued sales growth, through increased service levels, category development, network expansion and reinvestment, an improved light and heavy commercial offer, and the continued investment of productivity gains in lower prices to drive volume," the annual report said.
Bunnings arrived in New Zealand in 2001 through the acquisition of Benchmark Building Supplies and has invested more than $500 million since. Coombes said this year that as chief executive she aimed to build respect and trust for Bunnings.
"It's about building a team."
This story has been changed from an earlier version, which referred to June quarter same-store sales up 90 per cent at Mitre 10. The correct figure was 9 per cent.

In a dramatic finish, House and Senate negotiators announced a deal to keep the federal government open late Friday night, about an hour before funding expired.
The bill cuts nearly $40 billion in spending from the next six months of the current fiscal year and includes provisions Democrats find distasteful, such as restrictions on abortion in the District of Columbia.
Still, Republicans had initially called for $61 billion in cuts and some tea party activists have called for a primary challenger to House Speaker John Boehner for not cutting spending dramatically enough.
After brief, congratulatory speeches by Senate majority leader Harry Reid and minority leader Mitch McConnell, the Senate quickly passed a so-called "bridge" funding measure that provides the government with funding through next Thursday in order to put the complicated deal crafted between the House, Senate and President into legislative language.
DFL Senators Amy Klobuchar and Al Franken supported the measure.
The House quickly followed and passed the bill 348-70, although Republican Rep. Michele Bachmann and DFL Rep. Keith Ellison voted against it.
Although the House did not vote on the funding bill until after midnight – when the government's funding technically ran out – the White House Office of Management and Budget sent out a memo telling federal agencies to continue normal operations.
In a statement released immediately after the vote, Bachmann said, "The deal that was reached tonight is a disappointment for me and for millions of Americans who expected $100 billion in cuts, who wanted to make sure their tax dollars stopped flowing to the nation's largest abortion provider, and who wanted us to defund ObamaCare."
Earlier Friday, Bachmann had pulled back from her suggestion that Republicans fight hard to win deep spending cuts on this bill, suggesting instead that she preferred a fight over next year's budget and a concerted effort to repeal the funding measures undergirding the health care overhaul.
To explain why he joined Bachmann in opposing the funding bill, Ellison wrote on Twitter, "I voted no, jobs not cuts." Ellison has long called for higher taxes on the wealthy and greater spending on infrastructure and social safety net as an alternative to spending cuts with no offsetting tax increases.

Heaven's Gate at 285 Kent -- one of the best sets I saw at CMJ. Hey you guys, come play at my house.After several years of attending the CMJ Music Marathon as a college radio music director, I've learned that wandering around on Ludlow Street hoping to "stumble upon" new music is a waste of time. Festivals like CMJ, in general, are ineffective ways to "discover" music -- these day they are mostly only a nice platform for international touring bands to work a tour around, since they can often receive government funding and logistical assistance to play showcases curated by their national arts councils.
Montreal avant-pop 4-piece TOPS were a total highlight of SXSW for me this year. And ever since, their full-length debut Tender Opposites has appeared constantly on my college radio playlists. It's one of the best debut records I've heard this year. Their label, Arbutus Records -- who have previously also released records by GRIMES and BRAIDS -- just released their record internationally with two additional tracks.
From the ever-exceptional Montreal music community surrounding the Arbutus label – previously responsible for releasing early music by acclaimed experimental songstress GRIMES and ethereal out-there outfit BRAIDS – come dream-pop quartet TOPS. At yesterday's Pop Montreal showcase, they put on one of the more memorable sets of SXSW so far.

While Kathleen is off running the 3 million dollar machine I spend my time doing other things. I got lucky and was hooked up with a bike to use. Its not the best machine I have ever seen, but It gets around pretty good. The bottom bracked is shot and the front tire keeps going flat but other than that it runs great. I have checked out a lot of the different National Attractions but still have a few to go
When we wrote last time the map said that we were in Sydney. After that we traveled to Canberra and stayed there for about two weeks. Then we travled with Paul Link and Mark Fanning to Adelaide for a week. Paul and Mark wanted to do some field work in that area and they invited us along. When we got there we decided to stay in Adelaide instead of going into the desert to look at rocks. We ended up staying in the house of Erick Bestland, a former post doc student from ISU. He is moving houses and needed a little help cleaning up the old one. He also showed us some of the boldering areas around Adelaide.
We didnt really realize it when we first arrived in Adelaide but we were there for the first part of a month long festival called the Frienge. Basically it takes all of the artists in the area (and some from other areas) and sets up vineues for them to do whatever they do. There are a lot of different musical shows and comidians as well as photos and painting. We spent most of our time watching all of the street performers. One guy could fit his body through a tennis racket. Anouther dude juggled fire sticks, blindfolded, on top of a 10 foot tall unicycle, with chuncks of plywood covering the uneven grass. I thought he was going to wreck for sure.
Today we got back in the car and drove back to Canberra. It wasnt as long as going there but it was still a long drive. Its a long ways from city to city with very little in between. Well, I think thats it for now. I hope everything is going well for you all.

Report: Threat of Rising Sea Level Is Worse for Jersey Shore
As residents of the Jersey Shore continue to recover more than a year after Sandy, a new report paints a dire picture of the region's future: When it comes to climate change, New Jersey could fare much worse than other coastal states.
The research by geoscientists at Rutgers and Tufts universities found that sea levels along the Jersey Shore will likely rise 3.5 feet by the year 2100. That's over a foot higher than the predicted global average, due to the fact that land along the state's coast is slowly sinking. And if ice sheets melt faster than expected, or the Gulf Stream were to weaken, waters in the region could rise as much as six feet by the end of the century.
The report also predicts that by 2050, Atlantic City could experience flooding worse than Sandy as often as once a decade. The authors found that climate change-related sea-level rise has already exposed an additional 83,000 residents of New Jersey and New York City to flooding during Sandy.


text: NFL Draft Scout - Rob Rang's Mock Draft 1. JaMarcus Russell QB LSU - With a dominating Pro Day performance, Russell solidified his spot among the elite of the draft. The Raiders continue to scout the top prospects, and one has to wonder if the team would consider Georgia Tech WR Calvin Johnson here or a trade down if Oakland lands a veteran quarterback. 2. Brady Quinn QB Notre Dame - The two players deserving of this pick -- Johnson and Quinn -- don't fill key areas of need for the Lions. Detroit would rather move down a bit and pick up an impact defender. For now, Quinn makes the most sense as he fits in well in Mike Martz's offense and presents the club with a talent to develop behind the soon-to-be 35-year-old Jon Kitna. The odds appear at least 50-50, according to sources, that the Lions will trade this pick. 3. Joe Thomas OT Wisconsin - The Browns might have newly-signed RB Jamal Lewis under contract for just one year, but his addition clears the way for the team to add Thomas instead of looking hard at Oklahoma RB Adrian Peterson. With free-agent addition Eric Steinbach at guard, the Browns have an opportunity to create a formidable left side. 4. Calvin Johnson WR Georgia Tech - If Johnson, arguably the draft's top prospect, is available, offensive-minded Bucs coach Jon Gruden won't hesitate to make him the pick. 5. Levi Brown OT Penn St - New coach Ken Whisenhunt will bring more of a smash mouth philosophy to the desert. The Cardinals elected to let starting left tackle Leonard Davis leave as a free agent and haven't addressed the position since. Brown is one of the more vastly underrated players in this draft. He is ranked by some as an even better prospect than Thomas, and certainly is a more physical presence in the run game than the Wisconsin star. 6. Gaines Adams DE Clemson - The lack of a pass rush contributed heavily in the Redskins plummeting from ninth to 31st in overall defense last season, when they registered only 19 sacks compared to 35 in 2005. Only a late-season surge by Andre Carter gave the team a defender with more than three sacks for the year -- and Carter was hardly a stud. He only finished with six on the season. Adams would fill a clear hole, but with this pick being the Redskins' only one in the top four rounds, they will certainly be entertaining trade offers. 7. Robert Meachem WR Tennessee - With only four receivers currently on the roster -- and journeyman Bobby Wade the most successful of them -- Minnesota will address this position through the draft. The 6-2, 214-pound Meachem is one of the draft's fastest rising prospects after posting a sparkling 4.39-second 40-yard dash at the Combine and leading the SEC with 1,298 receiving yards in his first season as the full-time starter. 8. LaRon Landry FS LSU - In switching picks with the Texas in the Matt Schaub trade, the Falcons put themselves in position to nab Landry. Second-year cornerback Jimmy Williams might be able to make the transition to safety, but when arguably the safest defensive prospect in the entire draft is available -- and would fill a clear need -- he should be the pick. 9. Amobi Okoye DT Louisville - Cam Cameron was hired to improve the offense. With the top receivers and offensive linemen off the board, the Dolphins may instead be forced to restock their defensive line. Questions about Alan Branch's conditioning could allow Okoye, the 19-year-old wunderkind, to leapfrog to the top of the defensive tackle class. 10. Leon Hall CB Michigan - Fans will be clamoring for the falling Adrian Peterson, and with the 10th pick, this is about where the oft-injured superstar may go. The wiser move would be to add Hall, a steady presence to play opposite Dunta Robinson. 11. Patrick Willis ILB Ole Miss - Linebacker remains an area of need for the 49ers, and with Willis running a pair of eye-popping sub 4.40-second 40-yard dashes at 238 pounds, he is once again proving to be well worth a pick in the top half of the first round. 12. Adrian Peterson RB Okla - Do I think Peterson drops this far come April? No, but the running back roulette during free agency could cause Peterson to take a tumble down the board even though his stock remains strong. Teams simply have other needs to address. Should Peterson begin to fall, expect someone to trade up to get him, but slipping as far as No. 12 is a much likelier scenario than one might think. Steven Jackson, considered a top 10-15 pick by most, slipped all the way to 24th in 2004 in much the same way. 13. Alan Branch DT Michigan - With the prospect of facing Shaun Alexander, Frank Gore and Edgerrin James a combined six times per year, coach Scott Linehan cannot afford to have his defense allow 145.4 rushing yards per game against, second-worst in the league. Branch is slipping, but remains the draft's top run stuffing presence. 14. Reggie Nelson FS Florida - The Panthers didn't get much in return on their free agent investment in Shaun Williams, and 33-year-old Mike Minter also struggled to make plays last year. Nelson developed a penchant for the big play and was a finalist for the Nagurski Trophy (outstanding defensive player) and Thorpe Award (top defensive back) last year. 15. Lawrence Timmons OLB Florida St - Regardless of which scheme the Steelers use in 2007, outside linebacker is an area of key need. In ignoring the position through free agency, the team appears poised to address the need here. Timmons may lack Paul Posluszny's big name, but his size, explosiveness and ability as a pass rusher may make him a better fit for Pittsburgh. 16. Marshawn Lynch RB Cal - This is clearly a position of need for the Packers after losing Ahman Green to Houston in free agency. However, while Lynch's versatility as a runner and receiver makes him a perfect fit for the West Coast Offense, the Packers may be able to trade down to secure extra picks and still find Lynch available with so few teams in need of a running back. 17. Jamaal Anderson DE Ark - As stout as the Jaguars' defensive line is on the interior, they lack depth on the outside. While the Jaguars may not enter the draft planning to take an end with this pick, the team may be hard pressed to let a talent like Anderson slip further should he fall into their lap. 18. Adam Carriker DE Nebraska - The Bengals are hoping to land a defensive playmaker and team leader with this selection. The 6-6, 296-pound Carriker was arguably the most impressive defensive player at the Senior Bowl and is being considered by some teams as a defensive tackle, an area lacking in both talent and depth for Cincinnati. 19 Darrelle Revis CB Pitt - The Titans added Nick Harper in free agency, but the uncertain future of Pacman Jones means the team could still use some added depth. After answering questions about his downfield speed with a pair of sub 4.40 40s at his Pro Day, Revis may not make it to the Titans. 20. Paul Posluszny OLB Penn St - Even if the Giants are able to complete a deal for Broncos MLB Al Wilson, New York lacks talent and depth at linebacker and will have to consider a prospect of Posluszny's ability should he remain on the board. The Giants are certainly considering him -- coach Tom Coughlin scouted Posluszny personally at Penn State's Pro Day. 21. Justin Harrell DT Tennessee - Even with the recent addition of yet another ex-Brown, Alvin McKinley, depth at defensive tackle remains a concern for the Broncos. Harrell could push incumbent starter Gerard Warren, whose play slipped in 2006, and provide insurance in case free agent Michael Myers leaves and former Dolphin Dan Wilkinson elects to retire rather than relocate to Denver. 22. Ted Ginn Jr. WR Ohio St - Ginn is the type of luxury pick the talented Cowboys can afford. The team is high on third receiver Patrick Crayton, but with starters Terrell Owens and Terry Glenn in their mid-30s and injury prone, Ginn would provide another big-play threat in three- and four-receiver sets and bring an immediate impact as a return man. 23. Dwayne Bowe WR LSU - The Chiefs' once-potent offense has steadily declined in production each of the past two years. The Chiefs could look at a variety of prospects here, including help for their aging offensive line, but Bowe possesses the size coach Herm Edwards prefers at the position. With a strong performance at the Senior Bowl, Bowe is considered a surer thing than some of the more hyped junior receivers still on the board. 24. Joe Staley OT Cen Michigan - The only team with two first-round picks, the Patriots can afford to take a gamble on greatness. In Staley, it is a gamble that could pay off big. At 6-6, 306 pounds, he is a legitimate 4.7 runner and isn't just a workout warrior, holding his own at the Senior Bowl. Patriots LT Matt Light is solid, but remains susceptible against quicker pass rushers. Staley is a bit raw, but has the footwork to emerge as a standout left tackle. 25. Greg Olsen TE Miami - Despite cornerback appearing to be a clear need, it is noteworthy that while defensive backs under Eric Mangini have consistently produced, no Mangini-coached club has used a first-round pick on the position during his 12-year career with the Jets or Patriots. Perhaps a better fit might be Olsen, the speedy tight end with the soft hands to further open up the passing attack in 2007. 26. Aaron Ross CB Texas - The loss of nickelback Rod Hood is a considerable hole in the Philadelphia defense. Should Ross, the Thorpe Award winner, be available here, the Eagles would certainly consider him. 27. Jon Beason OLB Miami - Even with the addition of Brian Simmons, speed and playmaking ability remains a concern at linebacker for the Saints. Beason's best attributes might be these two characteristics. Whether as a starter or backup, Beason can provide an immediate impact for the New Orleans' defense. 28. Chris Houston CB Ark - In franchising Asante Samuel, the Patriots assured that the playmaking cornerback would return for the 2007 season, but acquiring depth for the future would still be wise. Houston has legitimate man-to-man skills and, with some more fine-tuning, could one day prove to be among the better defensive backs from this draft. 29. Ben Grubbs OG Auburn - With starters Tony Pashos and Edwin Mulitalo moving on and future Hall of Famer Jonathan Ogden contemplating retirement, the Ravens will be looking to address the offensive line throughout the draft. In a draft lauded for the talent and depth throughout the offensive line interior, Grubbs is the year's best. 30. Michael Griffin SS Texas - The legal questions surrounding former starting strong safety Terrence Kiel forces the Chargers to look to the draft for help. The club may have unearthed a rising star in cornerback Antonio Cromartie in last year's first round. Another athletic defensive back could be on the way in 2007. 31. Dwayne Jarrett WR USC - Muhsin Muhammed is on the downside of a strong career, and while Bernard Berrian flashed, he also has a tendency to disappear. Jarrett has the size, strength and secure hands to be a successful possession receiver in the mud and grime of Soldier Field. 32. Steve Smith WR USC - The Colts feature the game's top receiving duo in Marvin Harrison and Reggie Wayne, but the club is extremely thin at the position beyond those two. Smith isn't flashy, but catches the ball well and runs crisp routes, which would allow him to fit in perfectly here.

I have a property that has a gas cooker against a tiled wall, the space is tight. One side of cooker is 40mm adjacent to the tiled wall, the other side is about 25mm adjacent to a worktop.
Recently, BG carried out a gas safety certification and informed me that the space clearance is not adequate.
We had certification every year yet, this is the first time BG raises this as non compliant and issued a warning notice.
Has there been a new regulation regarding clearnace recently?
Is it the same for an electric cooker?
If I replace it with an electric cooker that is installed by a qualified electrician, it will not be subject to gas safety inspection. Would that be acceptable in terms of safety?
Please help.

|st: matrix colnames
|Tue, 27 Sep 2005 16:26:22 -0500 (CDT)
Hello all, I have a frustrating problem I know someone can quickly fix. I am trying to assign colnames to a matrix and I have included a snippet of code below. It should be the case (IMHO) that theta_V and theta will have same colnames, but they don't. With the code below, theta_V has equation names specified (in this case a generic c1:) which are NOT in theta matrix. If I change line 4 in the code below to matrix `theta_V'=J(4,4,1) for example, the problem disappears and all colnames are as expected. I have supposed the problem (feature) is that by taking the product of (tmp'tmp) Stata introduces equation names. How do I avoid this problem? ***********Code Snippet*************** local names: colnames `theta' matrix `theta_h'=J(1,`n',1/`n')*`theta' matrix `tmp'=`theta'-J(`n',1,1)#`theta_h' matrix `theta_V'=`tmp''*`tmp'/(`n'*(`n'-1)) matrix rownames `theta_V'=`names' matrix colnames `theta_V'=`names' ************************************* Thanks in advance, Ed Edward F.

Using H# Tags for SEO – Code Review Tip
Lately I have been contracted to code review a variety of sites. In the code review process you look at the underlying code of a site and offer up a number of suggestions to the client on how they could improve the code of their site. The code review is supposed to help the client achieve better crawlability from the spiders, "clean up" the code, increase usability (to some extent) and increase the usage of favorable tags.
One of the more favorable tags for improving on-site search engine optimization features are the H tags. The H (or header) tags are a serious of numbered tags in this fashion: <H1>, <H2>, <H3>…
The H1 tag is used to wrap the main heading of a page, H2 for the sub-heading(s), H3 for even deeper headings on the page and so on. The H tags should be used in a number ordered fashion showing the structure of the page.
This is just a little tidbit of information for those who are coding out and designing sites. Use it, don't use it but when I take a look at the code of a site it is something that I am looking for.

I have 2 cat beds. They are both the same size/shape/design. Both cats love the blue one but hate the plaid one, why?

Best Answer
Is the material the same on both? Maybe it's the location of the one bed that they prefer, not so much the bed. Try switching them around and see if it makes a difference. Possibly rubbing them with a towel then rubbing the plaid bed will put their scent on it which will make it more welcoming.
I've tried many different beds for my cat but she wants nothing to do with any of them. She prefers the arm of a chair, curled up on the sofa or in my bed. Some of them are so cute but they always get donated to the local shelter.
Have a good one.

Maybe it's the desire to develop Google apps. Or maybe it's the allure of that "Oprah moment," getting the latest Android hardware for free. Whatever the reason, Google knows how to sell out an event.
Google I/O, the company's annual developer event, sold out in "just a bit over 20 minutes," according to Google's Senior Vice-President of Social Business Vic Gundotra. The event gives developers access to sessions and information on Google's Chrome, Android, Google+ and Google TV products. The sessions will also feature non-Google technologies including HTML5 and AJAX.
Last year's Google I/O sold out in 59 minutes and attendees received a free Samsung Galaxy Tab, Verizon hotspot and Samsung Chromebook just for showing up. In 2011's biggest I/O keynote, the company focused on Android@Home. This year's main focus is anyone's guess, but considering how much Google is pushing social, Google+ could be pushed into the limelight.
If you missed your chance to get tickets to the event, Google will be livestreaming the keynote and key sessions. Other session videos will be available after 24 hours.
It'll be just like being there. You know, without the hardware freebies.Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

Have you seen the documentary 'Lights Out!' that showed how colors of light triggered different things in the brain? I sometimes have insomnia or odd sleep patterns, so I found this interesting. It originally aired on the CBC show The Nature of Things, and be viewed online here (Canada only, sorry).
They did a study on night shift workers, with a focus on nurses and truck drivers. It was found out that as a group, compared to daytime workers, that the night-shift workers got the least amount of REM sleep. REM sleep has been found vital of clearing the brain of waste cells. The Netflix special also indicated a much higher rate of breast cancer in the night-shift nurses that were studied.
Background info: Every organ in the body produces waste, and all the other organs get rid of waste when you go to the bathroom. It has been recently discovered that the brain, however, does something different. It simulates a car wash when you fall into a deep sleep, and rinses the brain of waste matter. They believe that the lack of the carwash is causing Alzheimer's, dementia, and Parkinson's disease. The waste does not get rinsed, and then forms plaque on the neural pathways. (source: tedtalk) Now we know the importance of sleep.
So back the colors of light. The color blue triggers the brain into thinking it is daylight, and tells the body to stop triggering REM sleep. Even being briefly exposed to blue light (5 minutes!) can stop this for a few hours. What does this mean? Even though the nurses and truck drivers slept, their brain does not enter REM sleep for as long as needed, if at all.
They put special glasses on the truck drivers to emit blue light to help keep them awake, which prevented more accidents. Then about an hour before their driving was over, they switched to red-orange glasses which tells the brain it is sunset, and starts to prepare for 'evening' hours, even though it may be 7am.
Here are some tips:
1) Avoid a cellphone or computer screen 1-2 hours before sleep.
2) Looking at the cellphone, or computer screen when you have insomnia may be the worst thing you can do. Lying in bed in total darkness will help keep your brain from losing REM sleep.
3) If you have to get up and look at a computer or cellphone, turn down the brightness, and download this app for Windows:
Red screen
Astronomers use Red Screen to prevent losing their night vision. I use this at medium setting, and have my brightness turned all the way down.
For mac users, check this post for some apps: 10 Apps to help you tame your monitor at night
Good luck, and happy dreaming!

Michael Holley, Dale Arnold and Andy Hart break down the Patriots and Broncos on the final day before the big Championship Weekend for the NFL.
Transcript - Not for consumer use. Robot overlords only. Will not be accurate.
Argued -- assault and -- program in fellas. NFL teams aren't the only ones that have scouting missions. We got out here to. We have sent Mike stall. Ahead of the patriots. To Denver. At half the altitude. Which sent them out there. Get the pulse. Of the Broncos. The state of Colorado. Marijuana is legal there -- right and marijuana legal and Colorado in the. So. Why are you asking us well any argument well all in the heart you smoke a couple of no I do not. The government like I can honestly say nevermind you have never tried you've never in my life never never not once dale. Every day I. Did not make the every well I got to Detroit. If -- get through the night. When a minute ago you know that was legitimately the big story of the day tootsie. -- -- -- bit -- to a place where it's legal. There were news reporters from Boston TV stations. HBO's and Eric support and right now it's a cute story with -- it's -- story. The end of Albanians but it's legal -- -- Now but it -- While we don't want an. Any league that had trouble paying management and players are getting addicted and -- all these other. That world -- you. You know I never got a future authorities. NFL PA lawyer I Indiana association beyond next CB -- we don't want more money -- -- more we. I -- at the top the top and had a good day. I was surprised when big band called me today as I didn't realize he wanted to spend this much time breaking down the Bruins win over the Dallas -- I mean I'm ready. I figure Celtics were about an hour and a half and then. Perez Rajon Rondo and then a wrestler so Bruins right I'm ready work and work all Radisson where regard where Goran AFC championship game. Broncos patriots we talked about it all week. There have been lots of conversations about Brady Manning you guys have been part of them I've been a part of them but this is what I wanted to -- from the people who. Have put Brady had a man I don't wanna. So Brady if I had to make it had to make a pick. One guy yes and taken Tom Brady over Peyton Manning but doesn't mean that I don't feel this way and here's a thought I had this morning. For those who say Peyton Manning doesn't get it done any chokes in big moments. If you're up by three points. The patriot drip by three point and Peyton Manning has the ball at his twenty. With three minutes to -- are comfortable. You -- Peyton Manning no one -- -- -- -- -- report in to right that was you know you know zero DO. Yet I fear. I think he's -- and I think the conversation maybe has gone too far because we're talking about the great and sometimes you forget that we are talking about. Something that is top of the line. If you have your your your choice between. A beautiful cars too great cars and you're trying to make a decision you'll wind up talking about one of the cars like -- the -- I'll respect that aren't. -- are still talking about one of the greatest vehicles in the world. But because I'm trying to go down the checklist. I want to make it one of them sound like it is but it's not a Peyton Manning. Manning Brady well Manning's have back quarterback outside Manning is a bad quarterback in the playoffs you know -- will that pick pick in the big moment. But the numbers don't really backed that up with patent and you don't forget. You and if you take Brady over Manning which I will. -- regardless. With football now and I think maybe the bigger question is not only down three well that the question is down three you wanna see it you know he can bring that team down and beat you. I think some patriots fans spin it as I wanna see him up ten. Any time comfortable he's gonna throw that pick that let's -- back in it so patriots fans actually think. They're better off when he has a little bit of a lead like they think what happened 24 points that's -- -- to -- uncomfortable they expected him to choke against the chargers a game that was -- To blow -- I did through the hard part about it -- with the attitude I don't. A little bit scripted radio gets hot it's -- it. -- were picked the other day I was thinking about it what was art so dale we we got this think possibly that's all it's the first week of the bottomless. So any heart was one of the first guest. On the blitz and I said. You mean Brady man. Think he's gonna make an impact in this game. It was. Or or or -- who see a guy like an off the radar yeah off your radar equipment operator right now. No I heard his answer that does -- that question as she handled that even want to criticize myself yeah that's the question. A good memory for a guy who smoked we don't understand how old I got. Yeah and it had a budget that that board unheard of by the eligible company. Include -- aren't we heard about your habit so you at all and I did. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- How. That it was a dumb cops. Take funny definitely raised the question it wasn't his -- right as they tried to make it sound and there is misleading the listeners. Aaron Dobson or Austin Collie they're gonna win will be pleased not -- Dobson is not is not that off the radar to mean -- we think he's way out and always he's off your radar because he's been a little banged up yet but in terms of the production of a rookie receiver. Hasn't -- done pretty much what you can expect a rookie receiver to do so big drops the big catches about 500 yards. I mean it it's not Eric -- Bolden as a rookie it's not. You know human Alan as a rookie went. It's what your typical. Second round pick -- receiver -- A rookie receiver who missed now is basically six games I think with a foot injury you know he missed three came back in really do anything got hurt again missed another one. Is now just say what CAC title games time you do well. Step up young son was get out there and do simple way to your -- talking about a guy in colleagues had six catches this year but they're all -- -- -- interestingly enough members -- really. Items on the field making plays -- On the line this week who's making please -- Tom Brady I don't know how to. -- better about Austin Collie and. Any Danny -- Because I think -- mentally is what he is right now he's limited physically. It was last week so is -- 90% of the receivers in the NFL had a long touchdown last week when they cut that defense with pants down he couldn't finish. Is what he has right now. -- the governor of aggressor and growing and it's still dangling member of the whole story he is now completely I -- I -- It's -- totally torn from the bone that's a good thing. Drag wearing part of triples I can I can relate to what dangling directly android don't like -- -- -- -- that -- or damaged cars. So he's that you think his issue is simply physical it's not that yet he hasn't been into the -- that's where the property doesn't trust or he's not that good it's just that. He's hurt he's 80% of himself whatever his -- lacked spark. Isn't really creating separation of getting open I think he just sort is what he has. And I think -- you're gonna meet this offense I mean that the proof is in the last month. It's Julian Edelman and nobody else you get one straight through here in Amendola went straight years somebody else. But it's like 60% of Brady's completions have gone to settlement. You need somebody -- that's why throw at Dobson -- collier. You know even Shane Vereen who had his great run when brown was playing in this kind of petered out lately what do you guys think the Broncos are gonna do with -- coming on and Ebert took a point. Got got Julian cattlemen who had a terrific season but for the Broncos projectile Rio who hasn't really bad record. Against bill -- -- money on Boeing's seven -- that -- Tom Brady Brady completed 73%. Of his passes against Del Rio defenses. With seventeen touchdowns and zero interceptions how bad thing I did it go -- Jack Del Rio. You go to your boss John Fox News today OK don't worry about the record I got something here what is. What is it what would you do now that you got Julian -- do you just say I'm gonna take him out minutes. Is is it that simple I would -- -- I will say that's what I think they're gonna try to do is take out the middle of football field. Because that's -- settlement does all of his his work that's where a lot of Danny Amendola as -- is. They they want Brady to beat him from the hash marks out. And I think Brady's arm strength is fine but that's where I I think -- -- Point about who the heck is gonna catch the ball out there is where the the issue is for the patriots. -- they have to catch the ball outside the hash mark. Caustic. Who's gonna keep you know what you know it went well outside the hash marks and cause the biggest receiver they have right now who's helping. -- Well he's helping I have concerns about his help too because he came back from that injury the first time they threw deep when he tried to put in that extra gear he re injured the foot. We gonna -- era. A replay of that one and done thing where yeah it -- bluntly runs in general Tompkins is he -- he's nicked up. You know he's got the I think it's a hip and any of the concussion so he's kind of limited what he's been of late and he he really trying to. Trended in the wrong direction of the second half -- the -- let's let's yes let's mess with sucked today -- ball harnesses and practice. Only player not a practice leading me to believe that they're gonna make some sort of a roster okay. So what former Broncos receiver could we come up with rod -- patriots could decide just -- mess with -- Allbaugh and I am being somewhat facetious I actually do think they're gonna make a roster moves I mean it's certainly a chance -- harnesses a guy that he's been inactive like. Twelve of sixteen weeks or something like the last ten of the season he is as close to number 53 on the roster is as you could get. And I mean there's legitimate places we could look for a for a body we joked about four we started the punter Ryan Allen holding situation. You know he supposedly has this AC injury and you know if you're comfortable with him catching punts well you also comfortable catching snaps if you know the shoulder that's a little more stress may be. And we joked about I don't know if you actually signing quote unquote holder. To go to a -- right -- it's okay. Addressing him practicing a limited basis I mean it just seems to me if they were gonna make a move to replace Alan muted on that early this week certainly you want somebody taking the -- I think he's gonna punt the question is gonna hold I mean he punted after the injury. He did the free kick. After the safety. And then he went to the bench and he actually got up a good browser says the project was pretty -- to do so now I'm wondering is it catching issue that they had concerns of their with the hands you know you're -- -- had a snappy -- mailed over your head. -- concerned he couldn't get his arms up over his head. We also know he's at a joint injury. -- point in your right because I guess there's a need to go to the -- would there. -- Denver but you guys I'm still. I shouldn't be shocked by it. Because of what the AFC's been this year can register for senator dale Denver's Mikey Adams former radio personal battle to the -- nail clipper. Mikey atoms. For him. Play as soon as they passed the law in in Colorado I was surprised Q was still clear up their -- -- I just there's times. There's an opening to Colorado -- that name out with it you'd beats he would be such a huge star out there. Dale and Purdue and sports stock and 60000 last he's not there yet but I his credit he's ready for a. But you look at it. And I know the AFC. Here if he's open. We shouldn't be surprised by anything we shouldn't be surprised -- it would. If if San Diego -- found a way to knock off Denver and San Diego had won the ANC. It's not shocking yet a look at the patriots here with all they've been through and here we are. Talking about the patriots. One win away from the Super Bowl. Just for -- enemy. It is -- a bit on the crazy. I don't think I mean if you start ranking talent -- where they are now offensively of these four teams a distant fourth offensively. You think overall our offense I think I think offensively the -- better than Denver -- -- -- -- -- -- offense is pretty pull -- relatively easily distant -- yeah Audi sport teams that are left you know how are -- Start right now again -- start three weeks ago he's start for three weeks I'm not so convinced the Seattle. The -- offense that great. You know look at their receivers out you know -- ball -- and now gold and -- I think our guys have been great that they got -- got -- would say it's right there you know if it's fourth. I think they're behind Seattle wouldn't happen in front of the offensively we'll probably are 'cause sub parts that you aren't very reported go to -- right behind Denver. But that just makes it. You know that's why they're embracing the underdog role this week they're legitimately the underdog but I just like they should be. Tell -- since it all the time about -- Opera he would not everybody will only get us and Rodney Harrison with the two best Everett will McGinest. In a game they were favored said nobody believed we could win and when the media said -- you were favored he said he Eddie said that they didn't really mean it. What are you to up. The way they can do that and I -- Brady credit he started at. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Picking -- going to be picking. What do you guys. Good. Are you think to properly gonna win. I think that this is dumb I guess but I think the weather is the biggest deal. The fact that that game will play in this and that's a huge difference but you can -- -- -- actually -- Miller who played in that game and was part of the reason the patriots were down 24 nothing with a fumble return. In a strip sack he's not out there. A big reason why their defense stinks right now you lose your top corner and you top pass rusher in -- very good defense yes -- I had a and a guy on yesterday and was talking about the Broncos office which everybody talks about an issue. The offense is unbelievable. And there is a there's a huge difference if you look at what they what they can do offensively with the patriots can do it with Tom Brady. But -- this team scored over 600 points first time in league history anybody's done that. Given their props but everybody talks about the offense and so I asked him I said. About defensive. What do you like about the Broncos defensively name one player now he separatists that Champ Bailey. But he can come to play her but what chance does not even good at what you're walked into the studio right now and sit -- you know why am -- professional football player. You what you would use. The first dollar guessing who nasty -- I'm gonna play your team this week wearing jerseys and his number I'm no quit I still think God's. I think the patriots in terms of just recognizable players whatever that. It may not mean anything nearest known so called no name players were very good. In terms of recognizable players the patriots have a more recognizable defense right now on the Broncos do. I think they have more play makers on -- an uproar caused him. No question. But the problem is it's the it's the delta it's the difference between how good the patriots are defense and how good the Broncos are an offense. And how bad the Broncos are on defense and how bad you might think the patriots are often those are the units those of the match ups in its weakest first weakness strength for strength which is we -- pressed to say but. I think you could argue that the defense right now. Could be the patriots strength. They're -- says help is it's been all year. There to pass rushers are healthy. Wire to wire they made plays against Andrew Luck last week the defense looks like you're gonna have to try to win the game if -- star was born last week in Jamie Collins he's gonna have to be as big a star or a bigger story this week. With Julius Thomas -- he's gonna happen Jamie Collins is is today about that and he is a cocky athletic. Guy who I I just said he you can -- -- Thomas big smile at the what that means I don't know I mean results on and on -- -- policy Leicester South Africa I'm sure it was confidence. What's wrong I don't a couple of couple breaks here -- -- -- that's only the -- can put it very eloquently -- says. What probably pretty guys talking about the patriots were second in the league and scored third and third in points. Was -- directed in the AC third. Third overall behind. Endurance and now. Interestingly enough sense we -- second from week eight through the end of the regular season. The patriots were a little bit ahead of Denver points wise and they were one yard behind Denver. From week -- don't. And the chemistry issues and the young receivers and all that stuff from week -- week eight on the Patriots offense was on a par with the Denver Broncos. Yeah you wouldn't be opening number two. Chicago Bears are second in the bears were second in our offense patriot and points -- -- voted with third for the -- patriots averaged about 28. And the Broncos averaged about thirty. Bill I made a huge -- to bring that up between one and you slash three. -- my favorites that you also see the stat from kick off in the Broncos game with the patriots from that point till now. Patriots have scored 233. Points I believe Broncos have scored 232. Both teams have given up 161. Exact same number of points since that game straight through the policies we'll get to these calls here -- 6177797937. When asked. We have to get back -- points were able to get. It's not great police swayed in the middle of the year when you have Rob Gronkowski and you were being a 35 to 55 point offense that's not the offense right now. How much of about. I told you the first time ever did Joseph grow up with the most irreplaceable player in the NFL. And has been proven true that you most irreplaceable player in NFL out here we are talk about the patriots day care center out of your game let's appoint our. And play into what -- seven right. And they didn't score a lot of points until an -- do the rundown of the got a much different OK I don't want to do now have. It played -- -- candidates score a lot of points last week. This past week yes yes yes turnovers the score a lot of points they finally get back into the turn over -- points in Baltimore yes turnovers acting definitely. Turnovers -- many turns the ball over three times. The patriots will win no question and I think a lot of patriots fans are counting on that a lot of people that are picking -- patriots 31 Broncos nineteen. They're counting on Manning choking they believe that the Broncos will lose this game as much as the patriots who -- remember Aqib Talib after the overtime win. Although it -- it's good at all we've got to we're gonna do it got it going here allotted only can easily do we soccer Manning into running the football -- you know -- make plays. Can and can't -- team play and we suckered him into it and and my guess is that the Denver Broncos and Peyton Manning. Under pristine perfect weather conditions are going to be suckered into it again correct. And I also argue that even when suckered into it. They started that game in overtime in remember the big decision Belichick gives them the ball. No -- Marino was a couple here is close on two carries to doing the Ray Rice eighty yard touchdown and I don't think -- would have felt suckered if you opt out of there with a victory because Marino ran eighty yards for a touchdown in overtime. They're kind of back on. Not -- -- and a weekend who's kind of back is what their blood back at about. -- -- -- While the guy carried the ball almost forty times. We get paid -- -- go dominant there work. I showed how dominant they were -- one Republican -- about a -- -- another way of looking at it is. If if you're gonna have that daddy it is going to be that steady dose of notes on Marino throughout the day. You think Denver hand and wants to win that way no I don't think Peyton wants to when that I think he gets into. Even though he did that day I think he did it that day because of what dale said the weather I think that was the second aspect yes they're getting old anyway we couldn't. If -- -- could not throw the ball down with the heat he wobbles as it is and wobbly. Balls in a cold windy day that's just a recipe for disaster so I think that forced him to take what the patriots were trying to -- -- to. If that's a dome gamer that's you know perfectly it's going to be -- he's not be suckered -- he gets -- he wants to throw he's got swept. -- I know we're gonna get the calls I mentioned calls coming up 6177297037. Textures or or more all over the place them techsters they Monte ball as good for a fumble to yes another day. -- a project may be yet that's sort of that are parked your church. -- -- the best. Police man so -- are -- -- -- ball and another one talked about Wes Welker. -- about him much this week -- with all the Brady. Manning's. We will breakdown Wes Welker -- all things patriots Broncos after the Sports Radio WEEI. -- -- -- Dale Arnold and and -- -- -- Giving young people focus. You me and -- policy program the airline's fleet. Are you excited about yeah. If you go you know so if anybody yeah maybe. We haven't talked about the cash effect. I don't know maybe that's. Maybe yes. Tell me what that's all about. Me and limited hours. Hopefully this is a very important game. Listen it's a business -- So thank you so. That we know within the policy moment and -- when you know people there. You know. That's an unthinkable down -- I think you have more questions about -- -- -- out -- and -- about -- With the -- -- and eager to offer you were asking those what don't know. It was a big deal with the report. Reporters simply calorie how easily. Well I got here to. -- to its yet announced the New York he was leading that charge. With the Denver guys don't know I like that. -- avenue it's counseling does a news story. Number the the and spoken. With the failures of your past resting and it. -- -- -- may -- didn't like that line of questioning with Aaron Hernandez was new look at that guy was accused of murder. I think any questions about you're going to Denver two days earlier they got the AFC championship game that's why built on a day early and you're asking about. -- -- -- Go back and they're gonna lead the news we're -- he worked for what station. That was seven. -- seven day. One of the story of the operating. At a moderate I WS I don't. Art art you're excited about. That was wild anyway. Texas' where's your partner -- -- is not here maybe -- excited about. The -- that you -- the Brady -- a big week and if you're -- go to go to Colorado. Smoker for medicinal purposes does that work against like the -- to. Well worked for everything a critical state of mind record. I don't know about you are if you think you've -- -- help viewers got to help. Your phone calls from the six point seven service have a 97 and 837 they'll forget about that twelve minutes we have the Boston blitz or -- around the sports world the Boston sports world to the three top stories in Boston right now let's start off with turkeys and playing field with a Kirk. -- -- Yeah big Sunday big Sunday. I wanted to make frequent point one didn't say about Welker. He had a chance to play two of the greatest quarterbacks ever enough when army which is absolutely ridiculous -- isn't it attack happened also. I'd like to Manning. Sunday on the pages love them love the creative delivery but I just think it's let up in -- union. I know I can't see him blown it in the weather is going to be beautiful. I think he's gonna win it and there it is. In I -- rather have a pretty good. Anything. And that's it doesn't matter are out of -- thank -- it's gotta gotta drive pay any -- may be brought it. Up. Get stepped up. And -- -- I I would. Bet that he has given one thought Eli Manning saw -- -- -- Manhattan Robert Beatty I don't know what is I think kickers and it went. -- -- -- -- -- -- A lot about both the ring and and and I would be it's quite evidently well you can impede them independently. It's his brother -- your opponents say was that games rooting for his brother gave them information -- remember that story about who was a second name. -- has -- -- and he doesn't like it right to warrant shall leave us alone. Austria and I'll have a child a -- I don't go out there I don't know what -- -- to start smoking before the Charlotte have been put. I bet -- go back to back the Providence of Steve. Yeah a lot of circled back on your ranking of the pats offensive against the other -- The other three teams in the playoffs are the only -- focused on Denver let's do that. But take a look at the pats offense you can run -- the district on avenue in front of me but you'll -- alluded to it. In the post second round of gronkowski. -- -- the game that he was injured in May be or maybe not. -- take those last five or six games including the playoff game for each of the teams and what they produce in the last. You know if you will quarter of their season -- the pats offense. Against those other three teams are stack them up against Denver. Well it's one more point -- Denver this week that scored one more point since against it than Denver. Okay to a ranking them behind Denver right now we -- way to we are we talking offense we talking in general we -- while the defense -- -- production sort of at. I'd have to go back and look and remove all the defensive scores. Well OK I have little connivance or you set up against. Well that scoring run that run those years or their parents are really going Communists and slightly since he's mad as we said the Broncos have a good offense apparently that let's I don't know I -- they were the best offense ever broken -- record. You were saying it. That that our defense has may be better than their defense but our offense -- -- -- It does well out there and I did say maybe our defense is better than their defense right now and our offense pills in the era you've got to you know you garlic that is -- they've scored more points and anyone in NFL history -- went up. I'm telling you for the first team NFL history and it talks 600 point out here. If they've had. For defense of touchdowns all year or seven defensive touchdowns all year. It takes him down to the 500 plus ranked -- still pretty amazing. They scored a more points and anybody of football you have to at the very least say they are in extremely competent offense right. Let me give -- the -- -- -- -- just for the fun of it let me -- -- last six weeks Denver 34 points 3720. 51353127. On the back further 28. They they score a lot of points. Okay where we scored. Grammy through wall I I can find it -- I got it right here and I can tell you that if it -- go back same thing. Ice and you wanna go through the last end the season. 344120. 2734341. Not as much as Denver. And I was much -- dropped off -- You can tell on the patriots can win this game I Don't Ask Don't Tell me that the Broncos offense isn't good what -- -- ridiculous arguments it. -- -- -- patriot and I Enron and you want the patriots when you think they can win you can sell yourself you can sell me on it. But don't sell lead at the Broncos offense instantly that's only a paper tiger only one part of the game and buying. Of them may have been edited that part of the game but dale. Started all the show while -- -- -- you know of the munchies and start -- show talking about Jack Del Rio. And John fox and Tom Brady -- that defense and if you wanted to really make a point. Point Tom Brady is -- 73% after. Against Jack -- real differences seventeen and I don't start at zero interception though. Look there's a way to do it and infectious Brady vs the real but if you wanna go overall -- the big picture and a lot of respect for John Fox. I think he'd -- Beyond football Padilla on got to hang out with. But coaching matchup. If you say Belichick vs fox even people in Denver. Even the spy gate conspiracy theorist or the spy gate while perpetual readers -- just wanted to go and they'd. One even that they do that even those folks would say all right I'll give the slight lead from comfortable. Slated to Belichick well I did it was an -- first quarterback is quarterback on the great -- the greatest Saudia greatest ever that means he's better than box. Right right simple. -- -- And you look at defense special team to get special teams got me curious actor and a game which brings suspect to Wes Welker. Now Welker. Are allowed them his mistake allowed them to win that first game or November. In overtime. About Welker. In this offense he -- he came back last week in San Diego court -- look like consult them about two guys that Internet. The only black adds is that it literally did a beard didn't look like himself because he could tell -- but the boxing but in terms of his field pistons play on the field. That look like this -- -- Wes Welker don't. What I don't think he's been the same Wes Welker since the first patriots Denver game I think he came back too soon in that game. To his credit I mean god knows who will say whatever you want about Wes Welker and his hands and he should have caught this in the super ball and that nobody can question his courage and his toughness. He's probably come back too soon before this he'd probably came back too soon for this game no I don't think he's the same guy and you know why. This I have to say it is pisses me off by men and sorry yeah. Use words that I don't wanna use but but it does this mean issues and then we'll take -- while Korean will make fun of his home. Right you know -- look at look at the -- helmet and he will make fun of a guy who try to Wear a safer helmet because he's got a concussion problem. Org or will make fun of of you know guys coming back too soon all look at him while blown around out there. Stop with this in the Bruins did this the other day and I hated it when they get there is no such thing as a mild concussion. It's like being slightly pregnant. You might have a concussion or you don't have a concussion and by the way the art market degrees over. No it all not a generic dude are you my eyes seemed to my players that might. Yeah and others to do you can't say okay he's got to 83 degree concussions he'll be back in three weeks. You can't tell everybody's different for everybody comes back differently every right reacts differently and and this whole you know what it is. It's a brain injury. He's got a brain injury and and he's had a couple of -- trying to play through to his credit he's not the same guy he can't beat and -- stopped it hit. And Indian -- maybe that'll be after Sunday's game maybe it won't be -- two weeks from Sunday but no he's not QC QPSA. -- that's up to him I'm not a lot of guys have said this about concussions you gotta be. -- advocate got advocate for yourself so he's put himself out there if he is somehow. -- skirting the protocol issues that the league is put in place got to put it back on him. -- -- you know but you know what. That's why the -- stride that's why the -- have tried to take this out of the hands of the players and they are there's independent neurologist now that are involved in the protocol process and these editorials and historic. Last week and a couple of guys. They're able to you that they did name them but we try to guess. Who those players were but Wes Welker is going to be huge factor in his game is is coming full circle force. Wes Welker -- went to Denver. And we thought at that time all man this is going to be dangerous. This is one of the patriot biggest rivals in the AFC. And it's going to be a moment when it's patriots vs Broncos and Wes Welker is gonna -- that was the initial thought. Then -- first game happened in November then -- cattlemen continued to blossom and now I'm guessing the feeling on Welker is. Now what we we we worked out all right we we felt we came out of this okay the divorce. And we're happier now without you and of course gonna hear a lot of references. To the ball he dropped in the Super Bowl we talk with Michael Irvin about that yesterday from Lechler didn't think about it. You decide that -- a little bit -- and -- You badly before he chipped up to implement a program he has little about it which -- them welcome attacked. In -- and that's been in the and now though you haven't been doing good strategy and investment bands the mountains. And -- Who -- so I have pledged to -- Would you have made. But I think I. And a guy. -- they -- you know what he wouldn't. They would have made that budgets didn't blow smoke he would may be kept absolutely look who will talk more about Wes Welker. Every every -- out by the way Tom Brady early because they -- -- Denver. -- -- ball harness is out. Within illness with the mayor around they are saying that you know evidently whatever has been going through the the locker room. Amendola dinner -- hightower Mankins and evergreen -- probable quote unquote. Dobson Tompkins and Allen are all questionable. Period so there's -- punter coming in here that -- That means they'll play well we've talked about the patriots. And -- from a New England perspective mostly. Coming up on the Boston blitz we'll talk about the lakers and Celtics. Patriots Broncos and -- -- guy we'll check in with Denver and see how they're viewing this thing Sports Radio WB yeah.

did she do ok with the 9mm?
if so then the xd9 or the glock 26 are very reliable
but so are A LOT of 9mm to choose from
Ok I went to the range today with my wife and she was itcheing to shoot so I rented a range gun the kel-tec PF-9 and seemed to fit her all right wondering what you think about I like the price but want something that will last what do you all think would be a good gun for her.
did she do ok with the 9mm?
if so then the xd9 or the glock 26 are very reliable
but so are A LOT of 9mm to choose from
It was a little big she shot 30 rds was was done shooting she said her hand was sore she did not say why. Caliber too large? She never shoot a hand gun before.
or grip wrong should we try other smaller frame gun?
I have a PF9. It is a lightweight pistol meant for pocket or ankle carry, not fun shooting at the range. She'd be much better off with a heavier pistol that kicks less.

Ok then can you give me on ideas for the $400 range(if she don't get into it) then?
The PF9 is a great gun for a concealed weapon. My wife has one. The recoil is quite snappy for a range gun that you might shoot 50 to 100 rounds with.
The M&P9 sounds good to me since I have had one, they work great and have adjustable grip size. You might want to stay away from the compact version if light weight of the PF-9 was contributing to the problem. The little bit of extra weight can make a big difference. Full size plastic guns are pretty light without going compact. You can adjust their weight by how many rounds you load them with.

The first three are medium-sized pistols suitable for range or home defense use. The last three are small enough to use as conceal-carry weapons.
You might find the Steyr MA1 in your price range, but I'm not sure.
After you have selected an appropriate handgun....you need to get her some professional firearms instruction so she can learn a proper grip. That way she can learn to shoot accurately and with precision and she will also enjoy shooting. Also recoil will become less and less a factor.
The SIG 250 is a very impressive pistol and built on the small side. Since it is the new modular design ............you can change out the pistol to many calibers and frame sizes with ease! The 9mm and 40 S&W's are out now ........with the 45 acp coming later. This pistol has one of the BEST DA trigger pulls I have found straight from the box. Good work SIG !
Wow, what a selection of rentals. I can have about a tenth of that selection after a 45 minute drive!
Your price range is just a little restricting. I think attending a basic gun safety and orientation class will be great, and fun. I think you should then rent and shoot as many guns, that feel good to hold, as you can, leaving the XD9SC, 4" XD9 and 4" XD45C for last. I am biased and I only have two guns but I have shot many and believe in the XD. I think you could find a good used one in your price range.
smaller is not always better. i would stick with a 9mm with a smaller grip, easy trigger reach and lower felt recoil. after she gets better with shooting, handling recoil, etc, then go to a smaller size.

I love Bill's Gun Shop! Great selection of rentals, lots of lanes, and good service too.
I have an XD40 and my wife says the grip is a bit too large for her to handle comfortably, and she doesn't like the recoil of the .40. The 9s we rented were better for her. It's mostly about the recoil and the grip, rather than the weight (within reason...).
This may or may not be helpful, but my two cents... and please, someone stop me if I seem to be off base with this.
I think what type of gun you get depends on what she needs it for and/or how experienced she is. If there's a chance she may need to shoot it defensively, I would recommend some type of revolver. It's certainly will not be the case with every woman, but I know that my girlfriend has a hard time racking the slide of anything bigger than a .22, to the point where she simply can't chamber one in my Glock .40, esp if the mag is full. She isn't very experienced, so a lot of it may be her technique, or lack there of. She can shoot, but needless to say, she would be in trouble if she had to chamber one on her own in a stressful or defensive situation. So, being that they are low maintenance, very reliable, and can very safely remain loaded, I'm thinking of getting a good revolver for her to keep at the apartment when I'm not home. Something similar may (or may not) work for you as well.
If she can operate (confidently) an automatic, great. My wife has been out shooting my Walther P-38 with me and knows how it operates. She is actually is a good shot with it. However, when I sometimes reached in the nightstand and handed her the Walther and said "burglar in the house", she would struggle. Sometimes she would flip off saftey, cock the hammer and forget to rack the slide. Sometimes she would rack the slide and try to cock the hammer without taking off the safety. I was concerned that in a situation where I was on the road and she really needed to be prepared to defend herself and the kids, she might not get the sequence right and be standing there with a Walther club.
I went on a mission and found a Colt Detective Special. (I wanted one anyway, but that's not the point ). Obviously, it is point and shoot. Period. Two extra speed loaders (which she is actually as fast at loading as I am) and she is good to go. She says that she does not like the kick of the DS, BUT, she knows that all she has to do is pull the trigger. The .38 special may not be the best self defense load, but I figure she is more confident with it and therefore much more likely to make 3 or 4well placed shots when necessary. Just my 2 cents as well.


text: First off I doubt that Chris is ten times cooler than anything...just kidding Chris. Secondly, I have to agree with Nigel this b.s. is just getting annoying now. So some people have a problem with the guy, so what? Do people really need to revert back to like sixth grade and act like bullies out to take the dude's milk money? Sorry to say Chris but, yes I think that you're pretty annoying at times. Talking too damn much, trying to give people advice that REALLY don't want your advice, telling every single damn person that you got a new disc every single time you get a new disc (yes I've heard about the more serious things too but I've never seen it myself so I won't judge). Sure that stuff can make me want to sock you in the mouth (not really..well...no not really). But seriously this prop 86 **** looks an awful lot like the mean spirited bullying that I'm pretty sure we have all grown out of by now (or should have grown out of at least). That's my opinion and thanks Nigel for having the balls to bring this up in the first place
