Sounds like there is a problem with the extractor and/or the chamber is too tight, that is assuming the spent casing is not ejecting. The slide is at least cycling after firing the first shot, correct?
New or used gun?
How long have you had it?
Factory ammo or reloads?
Can you post pictures of the extractor hook?
Can you post picures of the spent brass after they are removed from the chamber, particularly the rim?
1st suggestion is to call Kimber and sned it in for warranty service.
2nd suggestion is to take to to a qualified gun smith with good 1911 experience.
3rd suggestion is to sell / trade it as is, giving full disclosure to the new buyer/owner etc.
4th suggestion is to foolishly keep trying to meet the 500 rd break in guide lines in the user's manual...yeah, lets not do that.
5th suggestion is for you to try and figure it out on your own asking a bunch of guys on the interenet for help, this is more fruitful than option 4, but 1-3 are better choices in the long run.
How much time, money, and effort are YOU willing to put into a gun that should be fixed by the manufacturer?

Gerber:What We Do
From OpenWetWare
Revision as of 10:51, 17 January 2012 by Alexander Kanitz (Talk | contribs)
Global analysis of post-transcriptional gene regulation
Post-transcriptional control of gene expression involves RNA processing, transport, turnover and mRNA translation. Regulation of these steps has substantial effects on the expression and function of genes in diverse processes such cytokinesis, embryonic development, neurogenesis and cancer progression. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have been implicated in diverse aspects of post-transcriptional gene expression. Hundreds of RBPs are encoded in eukaryotic genomes, and whereas many classical studies explored the cellular role of RBPs with specific mRNA substrates, the recent development of genome-wide analysis tools enables systematic identification of mRNA substrates of RBPs, and the study of post-transcriptional gene regulation on a global scale. Importantly, these studies revealed that many RBPs bind to and regulate subsets of mRNAs, which encode proteins that are localized to the same subcellular compartment, act in the same pathway or are components of macromolecular complexes. Moreover, these sets of mRNAs often contain characteristic sequence elements in the 3'-untranslated regions, which are potential binding sites for regulatory RBPs (Gerber et al. 2004). These findings strongly indicate the presence of extensive post-transcriptional regulatory systems in eukaryotic cells, which may be comparable in its extent and richness to that of transcriptional regulatory networks.
We are interested in exploring this RBP-mediated post-transcriptional program. We use genome-wide analysis tools like DNA microarrays to elucidate basic principles (e.g. systematically map RNA-protein interactions), and we apply 'classical' biochemical, genetic and cell-biological methods to further investigate specific functional aspects of the RNA-protein network. We use yeast as model system to establish techniques for the global analysis of RNA regulation, and to investigate basic principles. In addition, we study the post-transcriptional program in mammalian cells and investigate how it may be perturbed in certain disease states (e.g. tumorigenic cells).

Standing in a queue in the Putney branch of the newly branded Lloyds just after Christmas, Spy was gratified to hear the lady behind muse, "I wonder how much of our money the bank has spent in getting rid of the letters TSB around here?"
The observation was made not by a personal finance editor or some such but by someone familiar to fans of stage and screen — actress Jane Lapotaire, pictured, who starred as the physicist Marie Curie in the television series of that name and as Joy Davidman in the original production of Shadowlands opposite Nigel Hawthorne's CS Lewis.
Apparently, at any one time, 90% of Britain's actors are out of work. City Spy sees an opening here: get more actors — and some common sense — into banks.
Knight in the City leaves Rudd in cold
As PR firm Brunswick's clients prepare to head back to work after Christmas, it's hard not to wonder how Roland Rudd, the undubbed head of arch rival Finsbury, took the news of the "K" for the now Sir Alan Parker, founder of the City spinner, for services to business, charitable giving and philanthropy.
Besides the inevitable "Cameron crony" row — Parker has holidayed with the Prime Minister — Rudd is founder and chairman of Legacy10, a group urging the wealthy to leave 10% of their riches to charity and arguing against the award of honours solely for services to business, instead rewarding charitable and philanthropic behaviour. Spy reckons Rudd shouldn't hold his breath for a gong of his own. The chances of Rudd — a Labour-leaning pro-European who once canvassed for Peter Mandelson — getting his knighthood under any Tory-led government look mighty slim.
Airbus allows itself a little flight of fancy
Come again? "For many years, Airbus has been a globally renowned synonym for technology breakthrough as well as aeronautic passion and pride," says chief executive Tom Enders on the renaming of aerospace manufacturer Eads as Airbus. To City Spy's mind, the business is a "synonym" for huge delays and billions of pounds' worth of cost overruns — namely the A380 super-jumbo.
* The economy's improving but jobs are still tough to come by. So pity candidates faced with these posers, according to Here is the City. They range from the tricky at Google — "how many cows are in Canada?" — to the surreal at Clark Construction: "A penguin walks through that door right now wearing a sombrero. What does he say and why is he here?". PwC is quite friendly — "my wife and I are going on vacation, where would you recommend?" — but Gallup verges on the sinister: "What do you think about when you are alone in your car?"
* First thing yesterday morning, beleaguered bookie Ladbrokes announced it will provide its final trading update for 2013 on Thursday, January 16. Three hours later, archrival William Hill said it will provide its update for the same period on Friday, January 17. No prizes for who will be raining on whose parade.

I am so chuffed with myself as I have now finished the second baby cardigan!!! And they look like real cardigans!!!!
This one only took a week, but somehow the button holes went all out of kilter... I have no idea how this happened as they are on the same row, but as it is hot here in Singapore I doubt it will be done up so am trying to ignore it :rollseyes:
Anyway, here are the pictures
This is the first one I did, it is done in baby cotton
And this is the second one, done in lemon coloured baby wool
This is a close up of the first one, so you can see the stitching pattern
I hope my friends like them!!! My husband loves the pattern, and says he would like one - trouble is the pattern only goes up to age 6 :rofling::rofling:
ohhh, why have they posted as links and not pictures??
They look so beautiful! You chose the perfect yarn, and I really love the stitch pattern! Great job
Those are adorable....the baby (ies) who are getting those are very lucky! Great job!
I fixed the photos for you. What you need to do is copy and paste the link given you, but it already has image tags so so you don't need to add anything else. Thanks for posting the photos, I hate links. :shifty:
The sweaters are gorgeous!
Thank you :muah::muah: I don't particularly like links either!!! I'll delete the links now the pictures are there :happydancing:
Those are absolutely beautiful!
Those turned out so beautiful! What pattern did you use??? I would like to make one for a friend of mine who's expecting...
Beautiful work! Is the pattern on-line somewhere? I especailly like it because it is not 'girly'. I'm always looking for little boy sweaters.
Those are just adorable!!
They are just lovely!
Thanks for all the lovely kind words :muah:
The pattern is a Sirdar one, Tiny Tots DK 1682. The picture that came with it is of a baby boy in a blue version, so ideal for a boy or a girl!

Su Birch to leave WOSA in September
Wines of South Africa CEO Su Birch is to leave the organisation after the inaugural Beautiful South tasting in London this September.
Birch, who has been CEO of the wine industry association since 2000, said that she intends to take "a brief sabbatical" and then focus on developing marketing plans for a range of clients.
Speaking about the challenges for businesses in South Africa, Birch, aged 63, said, "Rising costs and a volatile exchange rate are forcing South Africans to work smarter and with greater agility in order to be heard in an increasingly competitive environment, whether locally or internationally.
Continuing she commented, "Working to very tight budgets demands stringent discipline but also encourages creative problem-solving. This is where I believe I can play a meaningful role."
News of her decision to leave WOSA came after it was announced that Birch was winner of 2013's drinks business Green Awards Lifetime Achievement Award.
Birch has played a key role in advancing South Africa's reputation as one of the most progressive wine-producing nations in terms of eco-sustainable wine production.
Under the banner "variety is in our nature", she has actively promoted the country's competitive positioning in producing a rich variety of wine styles.
She is also credited with spearheading South Africa's Biodiversity & Wine Initiative (BWI) which has seen producers set aside substantially more land for conservation than the equivalent of the national vineyard.
"The Lifetime Achievement is a high note on which to announce my plan to leave WOSA later this year. I shall be leaving the organisation with a sound international team in place at the same time that the country has evolved into a significant player in world wine markets, well on its way to capturing and building on new opportunities."
Birch said that the search for a successor would take place over the coming weeks. She also noted that will remain in her position until the end of September to oversee The Beautiful South – a collaborative tasting in London for wine associations for Argentina, Chile and South Africa.
As well as her latest achievement, Birch is a former winner of both the drinks business Woman of the Year and the International Wine and Spirit Competition's Women in Wine Award, and last year was identified as one of the ten most influential personalities in the world of wine by UK market analysts Wine Intelligence.


text: Barb Boose Publications Director, Marketing and Communications November 11, 2011Friday recipe: baked squash and apples I hear more and more talk about the importance of eating "real," and I'm convinced an important component of that is eating local. I appreciate that will require me to adjust my own expectations – for example, not fretting when I can't get good fresh tomatoes in the winter, because fresh tomatoes don't grow in Iowa when the temps drop and the snow flies. Still, it's an effort I plan to pursue more in my grocery shopping.To that end, in central Iowa we're lucky to have a new retail cooperative, Tallgrass Grocery Co-op, that provides healthy, locally grown organic food and products "at prices that respect the livelihoods of local producers and the budgets of consumers," says its website. Located in historic Valley Junction at 116 5th Street in West Des Moines, the co-op has goals including helping people learn more about healthier and more environmentally friendly lifestyles, building stronger relationships between farmers and consumers, and reinvesting in our local economy and neighboring rural economies. Amen! While Tallgrass is open to everyone, shoppers can also purchase a membership that offers product and co-op event discounts, bulk and case order discounts and more.Carlyn Crowe, one of the founding organizers and members of Tallgrass, was thrilled that on the date the co-op opened to the public, on Sept. 15, close to 700 people had signed up as members. Tallgrass organizers were hoping for 200. In celebration of its creation and as a hats-off for its continued success, below is a mouth-watering recipe from Carlyn that uses apples and squash now plentiful at Tallgrass and elsewhere in Iowa. The coconut products are available at Tallgrass, too, and are a healthier alternative to the standard ingredients listed. Like real+local, squash+apples = win-win.Baked squash and apples2 pounds butternut or buttercup squash, peeled, seeded and fibers removed, cut into 1/2-inch slices2-3 baking apples, cored and cut into 1/2 inch slices (use red-skinned apples, peels on, for an attractive, colorful dish)Arrange squash in an ungreased oblong baking dish; arrange apples on top of squash.1/3 cup coconut crystals (or brown sugar)3 tablespoons coconut butter, melted (or butter)1 teaspoon coconut flour (or flour)1 teaspoon sea salt1/4 teaspoon ground mace or nutmeg (optional)Combine in a small bowl, then sprinkle on top of apples and squash. Cover and bake at 350 degrees until squash is tender, 40-50 minutes. Serves 6. Leave a Reply Cancel replyYou must be logged in to post a comment.

A Crestwood man has admitted to mutilating a tiny kitten and now, he's headed to jail.
Tanner Hublar, 18, appeared in Oldham district court on Wednesday and pleaded guilty to his involvement in the death of a kitten June 15.
His court appearance included a packed audience of animal lovers wearing ribbons marked "Chandler's Prayer" and carrying signs to express their anger against animal cruelty.
Chandler is the name of the kitten stolen from the barn of Lynn and Gordon Robinson with three other kittens in mid-June.
A Corbin woman is sentenced to serve 20 years for the death of a baby girl that she suffocated after giving birth in the visitors' restroom of a La Grange prison in 2010.
Ashley Cox, 22, admitted to concealing the birth of a 6-pound, 5-ounce healthy baby girl on March 7, 2010, while visiting her then-boyfriend at Roederer Correctional Complex in La Grange.
As rain fell Friday morning, La Grange Police officers responded to a car crash at Norton Community Medical Associates on Commerce Parkway.
A Jeep ran off the road in the turn just before Commerce Parkway ends, then went over an embankment and crashed into the building.
The Jeep's top came off during the incident, likely when it came down off the embankment, police said. The Jeep scraped alongside the building but no major damage or injuries were reported.
Oldham County EMS did transport the Jeep's driver to the hospital for minor injuries.

Record-setting temperatures in Oldham County this summer have forced several local sports teams to revise their plans for practice. Though many coaches are moving practice to early morning or night, others are taking additional preventative measures.
Though kicking off nearly 4,032 miles away in London, Oldham County youngsters got a taste of the Summer Olympics as local after-school programs gathered at Oldham County High School to go for the gold... or ribbons.
The local event, which began in 2000, takes place in summer Olympic years as a way to stay in touch.
Story by Dannielle Hadaway.
Both the North Oldham Junior League and South Oldham Senior League teams captured their respective state titles on July 25 at Oldham County High School.

I am just starting getting into re-skinning Windows 7 and commonly used programs on my HP laptop.
I'm becoming familiar with the concept of editing resource/.dll files to change the images used by programs GUI as a means of re-skinning.
The issue is that most programs use a fairly large number of images to create there interface and it's tough to tell what goes where.
Anyone have any tips on dealing with this?
I was thinking it would be almost too easy if there was a program similar to AutoHotkey's Window's Spy, that when you hover over a program's GUI it tells you what image resource that part of the interface is using. Does anything like this exist?
General tips on re-skinning would be appreciated, even directions on a better place to post my question, as I'm new to the forum.
Thanks Guy's!

text: 9 Photos: To Be Transgender in India Ostracism, family ties and prostitution are all daily affairs. May 21, 2012 Courtney Niemann Two Sides of Seema Seema, a 33-year-old transgender living in conservative India, displays a picture of a younger self dressed as a woman. Having no legal recognition, Seema has adopted prostitution as a means to support her family. Watch Seema's day unfold in a series of nine photos. Then leave your thoughts and reactions in COMMENTS. Photo: Adnan Abidi/Reuters Getting Ready Seema puts on a bra in preparation to go out on the streets of New Delhi to work. According to the Global Post: The transgender community in India, known as hijras, number up to a million people and occupy a unique role in society. On the one hand, they are called upon to offer blessings during auspicious occasions like weddings and at births. The rest of the time, they are not only ignored but often ostracized from society. Photo: Adnan Abidi/Reuters Home Life Seema plucks her facial hair as her wife prepares a meal in their home. India's relationship with its hijra population goes back more than 4,000 years. Traditionally, hijras are believed to possess powers to grant good luck and bestow fertility. Seema's two children are evidence of her powers of fertility. Photo: Adnan Abidi/Reuters Outfit Transformation In the back of a local NGO that supports sexual minorities, Seema changes into a dress. Rose Venkatesan, India's first transgender television host, plans to launch a political party—the Sexual Liberation Party of India—to formulate and push an agenda favorable to women's and LGBT rights. According to IBN Live: Among other things on her agenda is a comprehensive review of the Indian Penal Code, legalization of prostitution and annulling laws restrictive to sexual freedom, including those dealing with adultery and homosexuality, which she feels helps abusers. Photo: Adnan Abidi/Reuters Face Complete Seema, in complete make-up, is ready to leave for the night. Police harassment is a given for hijras, as is abuse and physical attack from street gangs, known as goondas. Sexual assaults and robberies against hijras are rarely reported to authorities. Photo: Adnan Abidi/Reuters Happy Dance Finally feeling the comfort of the transformation to the self she identifies as, Seema celebrates by dancing in front of a few friends. HIV rates are high among hijras. Infection is often complicated by a medical system that dithers over the issue of assigning transgender persons to male- or female-designated wards. Photo: Adnan Abidi/Reuters Family Life Seema spends meal time with her wife and two young children. The stuggles Indian society imposes on transgenders make for a hard life for a hijra's family. Many hijras beg for a living, offering to bestow blessings on train passengers and people stalled in traffic in exchange for small sums of money. However, begging generally does not make enough money to support a family. Photo: Adnan Abidi/Reuters Traditional Woman Dressed in traditional Indian garb, Seema's feminine transformation is all part of preparing for work. Despite continuing prejudice against hijras, India's sexual minorities have better social protections than even a year ago. Gay sex was decriminalized by the Delhi High Court last July, and hijras are allowed to list their gender as "other" on ID cards. Photo: Adnan Abidi/Reuters On The Streets Sadly Seema's day is just beginning. She works the streets of New Delhi as a prostitute, a situation very common in India's transgender community. Again, from Global Post: Discrimination has prevented most hijras from obtaining decent education, jobs and housing, say transgender and human rights activists. The vast majority live in slums and, with limited job opportunities, resort to sex work or begging.

Despite a law passed two years ago intended to make it easier for students to transfer to CSU, many community colleges still don't provide acceptable degrees.
According to a study by the non-profit "Campaign for College Opportunity," an average of just five degrees have been developed by each of the 112 community colleges.
Michelle Siqueiros, Executive Director of the non-profit, says the reasons for the difficulties vary.
SIQUEIROS: "At some campuses there was a sense that because of budget cuts and because they have adjunct faculty that are teaching some of the courses that would be in the transfer degree, they would have to kind of commit to making that a permanent course offering and they were at least concerned about that."
She says CSU also is slow to adopt many of the transfer degrees.
Only four of the 22 CSU campuses have approved all of the 20 majors initially targeted.

One pure wool cardigan for Miss Ten.
I am not an accomplished knitter – plain and purl is about my limit. But there's a fair amount that can be done with such simple stitches, like the diamond pattern on this cardigan, complete with beads in the centre of each diamond. I worked out the diamond pattern myself, and fitted it into the overall pattern for the cardigan. And if you look closely, you will see that each bead is knitted into the garment, not just sewn on later. I found out how to do that by spending a bit of time on teh interweb, where all knowledge may be found, eventually, and stopping into Borders and consulting their craft books on the sly.
As well as not being an accomplished knitter, I am not all that fast. Not because I haven't got a reasonable technique, but because the entire project can get set to one side for months when my life gets busy with other things. Like going through a traumatic move, and then spending a difficult year settling in. So this cardigan sat in cold storage for over a year, even though the only thing I had left to do was the bands. Alas, during that time some moths managed to get to it (I said some not very polite things when I found the holes), so I had to reknit parts of a couple of panels, but thankfully, not the beaded sections.
Miss Ten is delighted to have it, ready for the cooler weather.
I enjoy doing craft work, especially when it means making something for my girls. I find knitting very soothing, and somehow, if I occupy my hands with knitting, I feel much more able to spend an evening lounging on the sofa and watching TV. Mr Strange Land and I have been rewatching all of Babylon 5 lately, which has had an entirely beneficial effect on getting this cardigan finished.
And onto the next project, a cardigan for the elder Miss Seven, who wanted purple or pink wool. We chose both. She wants a heart pattern, with beads in the point of each heart. I've worked out the pattern, and started on the back, but the hearts aren't showing up very well. See?
Exactly. You can't see them at all.
Do any knitters reading this have any advice? I'm using a reverse stocking stitch for the background (i.e. purl where I should knit, and vice versa), and right-way-around stocking stitch for the hearts themselves, but I'm wondering whether they would show up better if I used garter stitch for the background. M-H, I'm looking at you!

The United States reportedly conducted widespread surveillance while world leaders were gathered in Toronto for the G20 summit in 2010 and Canada knew about it
Ryan Simpson pleaded not guilty to making an unlawful arrest but told his disciplinary hearing that he failed to tell Nicholas Wright his rights when he detained him
Dozens of people have logged onto the game's Facebook event page urging cancellation and calling for protests at the friendly competition on Saturday
Prosecutors and defence lawyers for a Toronto Police officer accused of assaulting a man at the G20 protests three years ago appear to agree the man's red water bottle is a key to the case
A man whose shoulder was broken during a G20 protest in Toronto almost three years ago says he was hit from behind by what felt like a riot shield while he was taking a picture of police horses.
Joel Bitar, 27, returned to Canada voluntarily and surrendered to Toronto police Tuesday, and is one of five Americans on investigators' "Top 10" list of G20 offenders
About 500 Toronto police officers will be paid an extra $100 because they worked during their summer vacation, an arbitrator has ruled
Americans Kevin Chianella, 20, and Richard Dean Morano, 22, appeared in court Wednesday on a host of charges related to their alleged participation in the riots
Toronto police Det.-Sgt. Gary Giroux says the five accused are on his "top 10" list of G20 offenders, believed to be responsible for at least $600,000 in property damage
The case centred on identity, with the defence arguing Eva Botten — whose face was partially obscured by a black bandanna — was not the woman pictured in photos taken by an officer

I ordered on January 5th , 2010 from a TV advertisement: fix it. I called and order 1 order of fix it. While on the phone, I told the young lady I did not want to hear any other advertisement or sell. She told me she had to do it , for me just to listen and say No. She also told me we will be recorded. I did listen for the next 20 minutes I was on the phone saying No to her sell(see enclosed phone list ). At the end, I finally order one order of fix it with shipping for one kit, just like I had planned to do.
On January 20, I received the package with a total of 5 orders. On the 21st, I called the company and they told me they had charged me over $140 dollar include $50 for shipping. They also told me I need to return and pay for my own shipping for their mistake. I told them I never order a total of 5 and I should not pay for the shipping of $50 I was charged and I also should be refunded the money for the shipping I have to pay because of their mistake.

Via Bernie O'Hare, this quote from Ed Rendell is dead on, and it's why I'm not a Bob Donchez for Bethlehem Mayor supporter. I've heard Donchez described off the record by some of his colleagues as "constitutionally incapable" of making decisions. A person like that should not only not be a Mayor, but should not be in politics in general:
"We need someone who isn't a wuss. Too many elected officials don't have the courage of their own convictions. … If you run for office and you don't believe that there's some things you want to get done, some things you want to protect against, that are important enough to risk your job, then save us the trouble. Don't run. Don't run. You have to have the courage. Do you know what the most difficult thing to do in politics is? When public opinion is against something and you know you gotta' do that because, in the long run, it's gonna' come out well for the public. .. You gotta' have the courage to do it."

THE ECONOMY of the North West appears to be in good shape, which is good news for the legal profession in the region. Manchester and Liverpool seem buoyant, the latter boosted by an increasing profile in the run-up to being European Capital of Culture in 2008. Economic vibrancy tends to give rise to legal work, whether because of the successes (contractual or property disputes or the like) or failures (insolvency etc). As long as there is no general downturn, the economic situation through the next couple of years should be favourable for litigation.
And although the Woolf reforms and the emphasis on alternative dispute resolution have significantly reduced the number of cases both issued and going to trial, here, as everywhere, the greater emphasis on advisory work and settlement frees up judges' time to ensure that those cases that will fight are dealt with more promptly.
The new civil court centre in Manchester is due to open in 2007. This is a huge step forward and will provide a practical, modern setting for litigation. It has been planned for many years, but there was considerable scepticism in the profession as to whether the funding would ever materialise. That scepticism has proved unfounded. The centre will provide ample court space, rooms outside court for litigants to be able to speak privately to their lawyers and accommodation suitable for trials both small or document-heavy.
Moreover, a large civil court centre will permit back-to-back listing among those judges ticketed for chancery, mercantile and technology and construction work. As in the Royal Courts of Justice on the Strand, this will allow for a more aggressive listing of cases than is possible with individual judicial lists, saving judge time without inconveniencing litigants. This should mean that courts will have everything in place to allow for the prompt disposal of litigation in an appropriate setting before top-quality judges.
The North West has also been fortunate in a series of high-powered appointments since Lord Scott (or Mr Justice Scott, as he then was) started the trend of High Court appointments for the post of Vice- Chancellor for the region – all of whom seem to have enjoyed their time there. The present Vice-Chancellor, Mr Justice Patten, has gone out of his way to put everything in place for an efficient and user-friendly system for the launch of the new court centre. This has included meeting local solicitors to explain what is proposed.
Down the scale, the process of appointing full-time civil judges has been reaching far beyond the region. The critical thing is to get the right people regardless of where they come from. There are, of course, strong local candidates, but it is good to see the appointment of prominent practitioners from outside the North West. Two top silks from leading London chancery/commercial sets have been appointed as the new permanent judges to sit on chancery work in Manchester and Liverpool. These are supported by wellrespected district judges.
The recent trend for greater use of the local courts ought to mean that North West business cases that would have been issued in London remain in the region instead. This may well lead to increased involvement of London counsel and solicitors in the region. Since both the bar and firms of solicitors in Manchester and Liverpool are in good shape, this could be a very positive development. The more the region's legal services are seen as an open market and on a par with those elsewhere, the greater the number of heavy disputes that will stay.
Impact of Clementi
The opening of the new court centre in 2007 is likely to coincide with the implementation of the Clementi reforms (or possibly the 'Super Clementi' reforms, since the present proposals go further than those advised in the original report).
Clementi could bring about as great a shake-up in the provision of legal services as it is possible to imagine, although we do not know precisely what form any bill will take, or what changes to their rules the professions will make in consequence.
One reform may have particular impact in the North West if the final bill permits multidisciplinary partnerships. Firms in the North West might be well placed to take advantage of the opportunities this would present. Medium-sized or small firms pursuing a niche practice have a significant proportion of the North West market and they are more likely to know many of their competitors than they might in London, for example, as well as other prominent local professionals such as surveyors and accountants.
That said, the Clementi reforms are unlikely to benefit all North West law firms, since there are winners and losers during any time of change. Overall, though, the changes are likely to be a boost to an already strong market as firms seek the right structure and financing to permit them to maximise their opportunities.
But however the Clementi recommendations work out, there appears to be a bright future for the legal profession in the North West. The level and quality of civil and commercial work remaining in the region increased significantly once High Court judges started being appointed to the post of Vice-Chancellor in the region. And the proposed court centre and the opportunities it will give to maximise the benefit of the quality judges available are likely to have a welcome and positive effect.

SUBMITTED: Sunday, October 25, 2009POSTED: Sunday, October 25, 2009
These days, consumers are being defrauded by companies who are taking their money and disappearing.
That is why Teresa's complaint is ironic. Morgan Drexen, she complains, is calling her everyday for missing documents.
Morgan Drexen has not abandoned her. It is working diligently to assist her attorney with her debt settlement.
Morgan Drexen has assisted attorneys settle debt for many debtors. The successful formula begins with knowing the debt position of the consumer and then leveraging relations and the art of persuasion to obtain the best settlements possible.
Teresa complains that Morgan Drexen was asking for missing documents. But she does not state that Morgan Drexen was asking her to call creditors and to negotiate her own settlements. Of course not! That is the job of the lawyer and Morgan Drexen. Howevever, the debtor is in possession of the most accurate information regarding her debt. Consumer reports are not up-to-date. So the attorneys may provide the best representation to their clients, they must have the best information. We are sorry that Teresa was bothered by these requests, but it is a necessary part of the process.
Teresa ... please check the web site of Morgan Drexen which publishes, on a daily basis, settlements reached with the creditors on the previous day. These settlements are as low at 25% of the debt. We are not ahieving these results by "sitting on our ...." These results are the product of diligent work with you and the creditors.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

LSU's Alex Bregman, left, Sean McMullen and Mason Katz wait for their turn at-bat during NCAA college baseball practice at TD Ameritrade Park in Omaha, Neb., last year. (Associated Press)
Last Modified: Monday, April 07, 2014 1:06 PM
By Scooter Hobbs / American PressBATON ROUGE — There was a strong threat of mops most of the day, but LSU stuck with the brooms anyway.
The Tigers also got a big assist from some suddenly potent bats.
LSU teed off for 20 hits, including two home runs, and routed Mississippi State 17-4 to complete a weekend sweep of the SEC series.
"It was nice to put some crooked numbers up there finally," LSU coach Paul Mainieri said. "That was a lot of fun. I thought we just finished the weekend in grand fashion."
All but one of the 17 runs came in the first six innings, capped by Kade Scivicque's line-drive grand slam to highlight the 6-run sixth that put the Tigers up 16-2. Christian Ibarra also had a solo home run in the inning.
So the final five innings were played in a steady mist that begged for the SEC to adopt a 10-run mercy rule.
But no Tiger complained about the weather as every starter had a hit and all but one had an RBI.
It was LSU's most runs in an SEC game since last May when the Tigers beat Florida 18-6 and the most hits against anybody in exactly four years — they also had 20 against Alcorn State on the same date in 2010.
The sweep moved LSU (24-8-1, 6-5-1 SEC) from seventh to third in the SEC West standings, just ahead of Mississippi State (21-12, 6-6).
"It was a great weekend for us and we really needed it," Mainieri said of the bounce back from being swept at Florida last weekend. "Each of the three games was different in its own way."
This was certainly an oddity — LSU has struggled for hits and especially runs most of the season.
LSU had to win tight pitchers' duels in the first two games of the series.
But Mainieri wasn't shocked by Sunday's uprising.
"I thought we did some really good offensive things (in the first two games), had some good at-bats against some really good pitchers," he said. "Today we just put it all together, took advantage of most of the opportunities we had."
Not quite all.
Mainieri, in fact, was worried after some base-running blunders that limited the Tigers to a pair runs in each of the first two innings for a 4-0 lead
"But, boy, oh boy, did we come out after that," Mainieri said after the Tigers added three runs in both the third and fifth before really unloading in the sixth.
The Tigers also got an encouraging outing from Kyle Bouman, who pitched 3 1/3 innings in his first start since spraining an ankle four weeks ago.
But just about anybody could have pitched this one.
Scivicque, the last Tiger starter to get a hit, ended up 3-for-5 with the four RBIs.
Ibarra, who went 3-for-3, and Andrew Stevenson (2-for-4) each scored four times.
Mark Laird went 3-for-4 with four RBIs and Sean McMullen went 2-for-2 with three RBIs and a pair of runs while Alex Bregman had two RBIs.
Mississippi State scored single runs in the fourth, fifth, eighth and ninth innings.
"Our pitching was outstanding all weekend," Mainieri said. "They got some meaningless runs late in the game."
Bouman held the Bulldogs scoreless for three innings — which was all he was supposed to pitch in his first start back.
"But he was doing so well, I said let's see if we can get another inning out of him," Mainieri said.
Bouman was lifted after giving up a one-out double in the fourth that cut the lead to 7-1.
"I probably shouldn't have sent him back out there," Mainieri said.
It was about he only regret he had.
Mainieri has not lost a series to Mississippi State in his eight years at LSU, but it was the Tigers' first sweep of the Bulldogs since 2008 (in the final regular season series at the old Alex Box Stadium).
"I thought it was important that we win this series," Mainieri said. "After we won the first two games, I thought it was really important that we get the sweep."

Backup Your
Facebook Profile
While I prefer Backupify for a ongoing backup service, for a as-needed, Facebook profile backup, Facebook's exporter rocks!
Facebook's Profile export tool is a great way to make a "master" backup copy of your Facebook profile. (Unfortunately, it does not work for Pages or Groups and there is no import feature.)
As you can see it's really easy to back up your Facebook profile and a really smart thing to do particularly before any major Facebook changes (such as converting to Timeline).
According to Facebook:
Your profile (timeline) information (ex: your contact information, interests, groups)
Wall (timeline) posts and content that you and your friends have posted to your profile (timeline)
Photos and videos that you have uploaded to your account
Your friend list
Notes you have created
Events to which you have RSVP'd
Your sent and received messages
Any comments that you and your friends have made on your Wall (timeline) posts, photos, and other profile (timeline) content
What security measures are in place to make sure someone else doesn't download a copy of my information?
When you download your information, we require you to confirm your identity before you can complete the process.

What is your favorite cell cup color and why? Before I jump into it I'd like to hear some thoughts and reasons.
What is your favorite cell cup color and why? Before I jump into it I'd like to hear some thoughts and reasons.
I like blue cause I got them cheapest. Heehehe, honestly don't have a clue, but sure hope bees don't hate blue. Curious to hear what the guys with experience say.
Started 9/13, building slowly, not trying the no treatment anymore
The bees don't care but beekeepers might. The amber ones are hardest to see the larvae in. Smoke the best. We usually use different colors to designate different breeders.
"People will generally accept facts as truth only if the facts agree with what they already believe."- Andy Rooney
We like the smoke colored cause you can see the royal jelly amount.
I've bought smoke, blue, amber, green.... I primarily use the smoke, as list above. It's translucent enough that you can see the royal jelly, and I like the contrast between the larva on the color of the bottom of the cup.
But, it really doesn't matter from the bee's stand point.
I like using a mixture of colors, on each cell bar. I also enjoy looking at bright colors, in patterns. I assemble my cell bars, with repeating patterns of two or three colors, on each bar. It just looks nice, to me, and is easier to remember, which cell I last deposited a larva in, when I'm grafting.

Squishie in the mail. On to August doll quilt.
I have decided after looking at all the fabric choices and gorgeous completed blocks, that I will need to make at least 2 sets, and maybe 3. I definitely am not going very far since I broke my ankle in 3 places last week and am still recovering from surgery. Have to stay off the foot for 12 weeks; no walking, driving, or even being very comfortable for 3 months. Ugh!
Hope I can drive my sewing machine with my left foot since that one is still working properly. Will have to get Islandwiz (aka Auntie) to drive me back to the quilt shop for a few more fabric choices. Promise to post the pictures once I remember where I stashed the fabric I already purchased and washed.
And another one is in!!!! Looks like the closer to the deadline I get, the more that sign up. Works for me.
Deb; I reread the instructions and you are saying that in each set, all 4 blocks of one pattern must be out of all the same fabrics? I have gobs of civil war pieces that would make 2 or 3 blocks, but probably not 4. I love to use up fabrics I have, but am willing to buy. Approx. how much fabric would you buy of the 2 colors needed in 4 blocks? Am getting ready to start on my blocks for this swap. Will decide how many sets as I go along!
Shoo Fly don't bother me.
Nice job Fraew! Love the colors... :)

Tim McGraw Has 'Good Faith' Lawsuit Will Go His Way
Tim McGraw isn't letting pending lawsuits with his label, Curb Records, slow him down. The 44-year-old is crossing the country on his Emotional Traffic tour and says he refuses to let his legal woes get in the way of making music.
"Right now it's just a matter of letting the legal system handle this," Tim tells Billboard. "All I can do is keep doing what I do. I've always been a good, honest guy and done the work the way it needed to be done and fulfilled whatever I've been obligated to do. All you can do is hope our good faith pays off in the end."
The first lawsuit, filed by Curb Records, alleges that Tim delivered his current album, 'Emotional Traffic,' too soon after the release of his 2009 CD, 'Southern Voice,' which the label says is a breach of his contract. Less than a week later, the 'Felt Good on My Lips' singer filed a countersuit against the label, requesting advance payment, reimbursement of recording expenses and a jury trial to determine whether he has fulfilled the terms of his recording contract with the label.
While the husband of Faith Hill has admitted ongoing frustration with the label he has been signed to for almost two decades, he insists he is optimistic about his future in country music. "Whatever is the best situation for me to move forward is what I'm going to do," notes the Louisiana native, "and I'm gonna keep an open mind about it."
His latest CD still hasn't seen the light of day, but that isn't stopping the father of three from boasting about the new set of tunes. "[It's] a really eclectic group of songs," explains the multi-platinum selling singer of the upcoming project, which includes guest appearances by Ne-Yo, keyboardist Rami Jaffee (Foo Fighters, Wallflowers), as well as his own superstar wife. "It's one of those records that you want to put earphones and just turn it up and really listen to every part of the record. I think it's more of a groove, feel-good album than we've done in awhile. It's got a lot of depth to it sonically and musically. It's just a really cool-sounding record to me. It's one of my favorite records I've ever done."
Tim's Emotional Traffic tour, which includes Luke Bryan and the Band Perry sharing opening act duties, heads to North Carolina next weekend, followed by stops in Virginia and New York. Keep track of his concert schedule here.

Barnett targets Canaries stay
On-loan defender Leon Barnett has revealed he hopes to extend his stay at Norwich.
Last Updated: 07/12/10 5:39pm
On-loan defender Leon Barnett has revealed he hopes to extend his stay at Norwich.
Barnett, who arrived at Carrow Road from West Brom in the summer, has impressed in central defence for Paul Lambert's side this season.
The 25-year-old is due to return to the Baggies early in the New Year but admits his spell with the Canaries, who defeated Derby 2-1 at Pride Park on Saturday to go fourth in the Championship, has surpassed his expectations.
"It's gone even better than I thought it would do," Barnett told the Eastern Daily Press.
"It's helped that the team has been doing well. I spoke to the manager and I think they'd love to keep me here and I'd love to stay here.
"But it's down to the two clubs to agree a fee. I don't know whether they've done that or maybe they're going to wait until the end of the season and might extend the loan.
"As far as I know Paul Lambert wants to keep me and I want to stay here. I've said from the start Norwich is a massive club heading in the right direction and I want to be a part of their success."
Barnett insists Norwich's win at Pride Park demonstrates their ability to contend with the heavyweights in the second tier following their promotion from League One.
"You could see the confidence from how we started on the front foot after scoring four goals the previous week, when we were perhaps expected to win," he said.
"I think the boys have done well because they've come up from League One and not been intimidated by anyone.
"I think they want to push for the Premier League and these results against a big team like Derby will only help.
"They hadn't lost for a while at home so it's a big three points and it puts pressure on teams around us."
The stopper featured in the Albion squad that won promotion to the Premier League in 2008, and knows the value of securing points on the road.
"I think we're learning every game," he added.
"I think people might have thought we would maybe roll over on this one but all the boys dug in and we got what we deserved."

Gov. Tim Pawlenty has signed off his weekly radio show for the last time.
Pawlenty ended his nearly eight-year run on WCCO-AM today with his wife Mary serving as his co-host. The final program included telephone interviews with former first lady Laura Bush and fitness guru Richard Simmons. The Republican governor, who's considering a run for president in 2012, is scheduled to leave office after two terms next month.
Pawlenty, who carried on a radio tradition begun by be predecessor Jesse Ventura, told listeners that the show was always one of the highlights of his week.
"One of the most fun and different things was to be able to come here and have this discussion with Minnesota and the people of Minnesota and give them a chance to shout back at me or question back," Pawlenty said.
Pawlenty got lots of kudos from several listeners as well as station management. But one caller, identified as Ed from St. Paul, offered a considerably harsher farewell.
"I hope someday you'll realize the wrongs you've done to so many people in Minnesota," Ed said.
