I've got several Amazon gift certificates that have piled up over time. The oldest is about to expire.
My sister had intended they go toward James Bond DVDs, but told me I could get what I want. I already have them on VHS and think it would be a waste of money.
I have wanted "Cooper on Handguns", but don't know if it's worth $100. I'm sure most of the info is considered outdated, but the Colonel is usually a good read.
I welcome any comments & suggestions.
That would be my question also. What's your area of interest? Old or new?What have you read or been eyeing.
Maybe something from any of the old Masters, like Elmer Keith, Bill Jordan, Skeeter Skelton, Chic Gaylord, or even that pompous old windbag, Charley Askins.
When youre wounded and left on Afghanistans plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Just roll to your rifle and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier.
Rudyard Kipling
books by Mas Ayoob and Gabriel Suarez are always a welcome addition with any gun library.
"embrace the suck" - our warriors in the sandbox... it implies that do the best you can in impossible conditions.
"no plan survives intact upon contact with the enemy" - wisdom of the Grunts.
My tastes probably run toward the traditional. My library looks something like:
Some Kuhnhausen books.
Pat Sweeney's Gunsmithing for Pistols and Revolvers
Ditto for Rifles
Gun Digest Book of _____ Disassembly (All 5)
Surgical Speed Shooting
The Art of the Rifle by Cooper
Principles of Personal Defense by Cooper
No Second Place Winner by Jordan
Sixguns by Keith
Wilson's .45 auto book (Name escapes me)
McGivern's Fast & Fancy Revolver Shooting
Texas Gun Owner's Guide by Korwin
The Concealed Handgun Manual by Chris Bird
Stressfire by Ayoob
Long story, but my library's all packed up right now, so this is from memory. As you can tell, my tastes run toward the traditional. I don't want to read something that's faddish, but I'm willing to read good modern stuff.
At the risk of being ex-communicated, I'll admit I've never read any of Skeeter's stuff. On the rare occasion I pick up G&A (a Viagra catalog disguised as a gun rag) Bart Skelton's column is one of the first I read. I don't know how much their stuff is alike.
I enjoy Taffin, but haven't taken the plunge on either of his books. I've thought about getting Ed Lovett's snubnose book. I've also thought about some of Fairbairn's stuff you see in the Paladin Press ads. As mentioned in the opening post, I've long wondered if Cooper on Handguns was worth the read or is miserably outdated.
Bottom line--Storytelling is good, but I'd rather have a reference book to learn something from.
Anybody have any favorites I'm missing?
Note: Apologies to my HS English teacher for failing to properly italicizing the title of book when referencing it.
Since you say you've never read any of Skeeter's stuff, I'll say this. As a gunwriter, Bart Skelton couldn't carry his dad's typewriter.Bart Skelton's column is one of the first I read.

Camping suspended in Huerfano County
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Boy Scouts who were forced to evacuate in Huerfano County are either going home or staying in a shelter again Thursday night.
That's because of two flash floods in two weeks.
Some campers got to go home, after Mother Nature cut an outdoors trip short.
"After last night's flood up at the Scout Ranch and after conferring with the scout leaders, we've determined it's better to go ahead and end the scout season," said Sheriff Bruce Neumann, Huerfano County.
Two floods in two weeks lead to a new directive by the Sheriffs Office: no camping if there's a 30 percent chance of rain.
"We believe a very high risk. Just like any burn scar area there's just nothing to contain the water when it starts raining, and we're having a lot more rain than normal," Neumann said.
But more rain shouldn't have been a surprise given the forecasts early on in the monsoon season. And the area is spread out, so it takes time to evacuate those campers.
Still, Boy Scouts executive Michael Stewart says their evacuation protocol was successful.
"The bottom line is we have spent all last year planting a lot of grass seed specially formulated for that area with trees, building berms putting up contours to hold the water up on the mountain," Stewart said. "It's the property owners above us, the Bureau of Land and Management and the Forestry Service that's not doing anything. And they've told us that."
The campgrounds will be closed until next year, giving the Army Corps of Engineers a chance to look at the grounds and see that close calls don't happen again.
Five kids were injured in Wednesday night's flood. Two of them were swept away in a stream nearby but were rescued.
They only suffered cuts and scrapes.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Having started tri's on a trial basis this year, and enjoying it hugely, I'm planning to sign up for IMCH 2009 and will be buying gear later this year.
In August this year I'm doing London Tri, and it's become very apparent that whatever I do on my hybrid bike, I'll be left in the dust by racing bikes. I don't have the money at the moment to buy a decent racing bike that will do for 2008 and 2009, and I don't want to spend money (I don't have) unnecessarily now for one or two events this summer.
Shall I bite the bullet, do London on a hybrid and save up for a good bike for next year, or could anybody tell me of anywhere that rents road bikes on a short term basis? I'm in London btw.
Many thanks

Now that the confetti has been swept off the floor of our eBusiness Forum in Chicago, its time to offer a behind the scenes look at who won our 2012 B2B Groundswell Awards and why. Mark you calendar and register today for our upcoming Webinar on November 8th in which the judges will dish on the companies and social strategies that knocked their socks off. Who knows, you might get an inside track on winning next year, or better yet, knocking out a winning social strategy of your own. Register here to save your space on this one time reveal on the best of the best in B2B social.
Posted by Zachary Reiss-Davis on October 18, 2012
Here's one of the biggest trends for off-domain social initiatives that I'm tracking as I kick off a new overview of social tools for B2B marketers: Marketers like you no longer want just the perfect point solution for each new social marketing campaign; instead, they want integrated solutions and are starting to use larger software packages aimed at providing complete digital marketing solutions.
This is welcome news because successful social programs should be part of your comprehensive marketing plans; they can't exist as their own island. Several years ago, B2B marketing organizations could run their social marketing initiatives in a silo, but today they must coordinate them with their lead origination and lead nurturing programs as well as with other awareness campaigns.
The three leaders in the most recent Forrester Wave™ evaluation of email marketing vendors reflect this change in their products; they all promote their social offerings front and center on their home pages, often with the same prominence as their traditional email offerings. Screenshots of each of those home pages are below.
ExactTarget expanded into social marketing beginning with its acquisition of CoTweet some time ago in March 2010.It now has a "Social Marketing Hub" as a part of its "Interactive Marketing Hub" — email marketing is just one of three product categories on its website, getting equal billing with both social and mobile marketing.

The silver lining on Apple's iOS6 Maps App snafu is that it has fueled much humorous poking. My favorite so far is the photo going around Facebook of Tom Hanks in "Cast Away." There is also a blog called "The Amazing iOS 6 Maps" that includes a collection of Maps mishaps sent in by users. It seems that negative product and service experiences often turn into comedy (remember "United Breaks Guitars"?). A funny photo or link shared on Facebook is often how product issues are initially brought to our attention.

Big Block Pontiac Performace
Iam bilding a 37 pontiac and i wont a big block with a blower. But i dont know anything about pontiac. so some sugestions on what engine i sould find and what i should do to it. thanks for any help
All Pontiacs from the 326 up to the 455 use, essentially, the same block. They are all "big blocks". I would look for a 455. Cubic inches are king and this will do it for you.
Here is an article Car Craft did on a junkyard 455. http://www.carcraft.com/techarticles/116_0306_pont/
Look it over and ring back with any questions. Lots of Pontiac guys here...
As far as building a Pontiac for a blower motor go with a 455 with large chamber heads such as 4Xor 6X to keep compression down. Use good rod bolts as stock Pontiacs have a tendency to stretch, I recommend ARP for rod bolts. Also if you feel the need for better rods either 421SD or 455SD rods are the best that Pontiac made but stock cast rods will work. Use forged pistons and good rings and use a half groove main bearing as Pontiacs have tendency to have alot of force on the downstroke and will form a ridge on the crank over a period of time. Use stainless steel valves and have a reputable shop port and polish the heads and use good springs and roller rockers. As far as cams I'm not sure what to recommend on that one but check with some of better known builders that specialize in Pontiacs for what type of cam to use as far as cylinder pressure is concerned along with how much boost you may want to use along with whether to overdrive or underdrive your set up.
These guys can help with your supercharger on pontiac motor.
thanks astro for that cool link on a 455 hop up which would be about the same as a 400. i didnt see anything at the blower site for pontiacs. it would be expensive as hell tho. the main problem with pontiacs is the heads totally suck for the most part. a 326 is about the same as the 455 except the e heads dont fit. a friend put an edel intake and thorley headers on his 326 and didnt notice much of anything. like about. but we cant go out and get heads. there are some good poncho heads out there so you have to be carefull when you buy the engine or plan on buying them later. i've also seen a post where someone makes a crank to stroke the 400 to 462 and am trying to find the mfg.
Here's a link to a place that sells pontiac stroker kits . This one doesn't seem to steep. But they have an assembly to go from 487 - 501 CI.
And as for supercharging a pontiac, it doesn't seem to bad. I found a manifold for somewhere that was $500, not much more then a chevy. From there, the cost would be the same for anyother blower.
I'd like to see how a stock pontiac head with some light port work would handle boost. I think you coulld make big torque with a roots blower. I haven't done to much research yet as I am getting my T/A in a few days.
Sorry for bringin such an old post back up.
From your question, you don't really say you want to run Pontiac power. While Pontiac engines are just fine, they do cost a bit more to build compared to the Chevy Big Blocks.
I also guess from you wanting a blown big block your going to be spending some big dollars either way. Its really your choice, there are more after market parts for the Chevy's, so they are a bit cheaper to build.
Build what you want, but please keep it GM!
are the pontiac and oldsmobile 455's the same?
Big Block Pontiac
If you want to run a 455 Pontiac engine look for the YH engine if you can find one. Casting # is 9799140. You will find the YH code on the front of the block below the pass. cylinder head. The YH is a factory 370 HP engine. You will find it in a few 70 Pontiacs like the Bonneville or Catalinas. I built one back pretty much stock just some stronger rods and the only thing that was changed above stock was using the Lunati Pontiac Ram Air IV cam. That was paired with a Edelbrock intake and a HEI ignition conversion. The Ram Air IV cam picks up the bottom end and has a nice "chop" to it without bouncing all over the place and has no problem going into gear without a stall convertor. The rebuild with machine work was around $2,500. That's not a bad price for complete machine work and having everything replaced and upgraded. Linked to a Turbo 400 Transmission it will push you thru the drivers seat on acceleration. But it's a dependable, streetable engine. So without spending a fortune to make horsepower you can have it the way it used to be straight from the factory.
69 LeMans
With a built 400 that runs STRONG all day long!! The engine is punched .060 over and the power is unbeliveable!! Probably a sin...or close to it!!
Rat Rods Rule!
400 or 455?
If you can find a 455 that's great although they are kinda scarce.
e.g. took a whimpy 326:
I put Lunati cam, edelbrock performer RPM, and 2.25' duals on hedman headers and I can bend my '66 tempest out of a straight line when I hit it at 60.
Not so whimpy 400:
I am now building a '67 400 (yes, out of a catalina) with #143 10.5:1 heads (if you can find these heads, grab them, they have bigger chambers and valves). 75cc chambers. 1.92 intake valves! that you could punch out the edelbrock spec of 2.11 if you want to. (probably will)
point: (and I have one,) that you can do a lot with the heads to increase power. 4x and 6x are nice, but the ultra rare stock heads could be---- almost as good as the alum eddy's for a lot less. Do your porting/polishing get 1.65 roller rockers, oversize the valves and I promise you can build a 400 hundred that will require regular dental work!
What are you talking about..a 400 is NOT whimpy at all. Lets go to the track guy and you put your money where your mouth is!! Wanta run...well do ya??? My Lemans agains your tempest...heads up........LOL Gotta love this hobby!!!
Rat Rods Rule!
Gung Ho Tazz,
read my post again, the 400 is a great block with great potential.
425-475 h easy. Your Lemans sounds mean. Power to the Ponchos! Sorry if I offended, I meant no disrespect.
Last edited by tempt; 10-23-2004 at 11:01 AM.
hey tempt. are your 326 heads 4bbl heads or 2bbl? what are your cam specs anyway? do you think it would be hard to impossible to get 326 4bbl heads? thx

Just wanted everyone to know that we have built an interior for this helmet - ala Ridell :-)
Will have 'em molded by next week & pics would be posted.

If it looks as sweet as the prototype pics . . . . this is going to be ONE SWEET PROJECT!!!
Can't wait to see it!
The interior looks really sweeeet! It should fit the larger-sized helmets...
Oooh, I saw those pics! Damm, this Helm is gonna be kickass! Great work Mardon!
Stay safe.
I was curious also about the "a la riddell" part for the interior of the helmet, so I asked Mardon about it and he sent me this pic. (hosting courtesy of Secolfett)
Here's the mock-up he did, I think it looks AMAZING. . .
Holy *****, he's a freaking mad man! I have never before seen someone with so much talent in the area of poster board, Fantastic work!!
Pretty darn kewel, 'eh?
I can't wait to add this feature to my helmet!!
Awesome ain't it? Hell, you should see his 1/6 scale WW2 Vechs & Armor. If I didn't know better, I'd swear he was shrinking down Real Sized Vechs to sell em.

Once again, Mardon, excellent work!
Stay safe.
Speechless!!!! I simply can't belive it! Awesome work Mardon! Can I be your brother? Can't wait to see what that looks like in a MLC bucket!
Man! you guys are scaring me. To freakin real!!!
OK, I'm curious about the interior workings. Are they going to be fiberglass or some kind of foam padding? I'm in the process of trying to get my hands on the interior of a few riddel fotball helmets to send to Rex and Mardon. I'll go and remind the coach again today about getting them to me.
Hopefully these pads will make a secure fitting bucketthat moves well with you and we won't have to worry about a hatband slipping around.
Thanks for the compliments guys! Yup, I'm definitely "nuts" when it comes to making stuff LOL!
I plan to make it all in FG - unless ofcourse if Slowmo could provide those paddings. I replicated everything in card & will be molded in FG including the paddings, but if there's actual paddings to use, then the FG parts will definitely be low in cost.
Dunno if it will fit other buckets - but its a custom fit for the MLC Helmet
This has been discussed before a couple of times but I didnt think it would ever come around. That looks awesome Mardon but I think that the FG will be a bit bothersome for some of us fellows with large noggins.
This is the first I have checked this thread and I must say I am very impressed. The inner portion is amazing! Any possibility of doing a Jango helmet???
Tk-Fett - not a problem my friend - anyone could elect having those FG cushions or not. If you could find real cushions, then so much the better. But if small noggin folks would like to try our FG cushions, then naturally they're welcome to it
I'll have both price options - those with included FG cushions & for those without Sounds fair?
Mirax - yeah, I think Rex got an order for our bucket being converted into a Jango. Just a little bit ear modification & covering the dent.
I was sure you had thought of that Mardon but if there is any possiblity for a real cushion insert im sure the response would be better. (By 1 person at least)
That cardboard interior looks great!!
wow that "a la riddell" looks great and is a great idea
Tk-Fett - fully understood buddy Trust me, I'd preffer the actual cushions myself. Unfortunately, we dont have that kind of cushions over here in the Philippines, so I guess i have to rely from somebody over there in the states who can find these for us.
The FG cushions that I made would just be a "back-up" if for some reason we cant find any - although, it doesnt mean the end user be forced to get FG cushions from us. Thats why I'll provide 2 price options.
Holy shinto.
I just found this thread and I am, to understate, very impressed with that helmet. I really like the movie-sized proportions of this one. I will be in the market for a movie-sized ESB Fett helmet myself soon, and I'm trying to evaluate all of the available options.
Just for clarification--are the helmets fiberglass, or cardboard?
Cardboard for the mockup- fiberglass for actual helmet though.
Yup, all fiberglass, w/ the interior gelcoated. Visor area already cut out. Very little to no sanding required before painting.
ok, I have a bit of bad news about getting the inside paddings from the ridell football helmets we have here at the school. I finally got tired of waiting for the coach to hook me up with them so I went rummaging around in the equipment room. Everything we have are the inflateable type pads. They have foam but use air pressure to ensure a proper fit. The problem is that I don't think ANY of us would want to drill a hole in our nice new buckets to run the valve stem to the outside. I will try to run over to a local sporting goods place that we buy a lot of our equipment from and see if they have the regular foam pads sometime this week. I'll give a further update when I know more.
No worries Doug,
You tried your best, that's all anyone can ask!!
Good luck at the sporting goods shop!!!
take care,
You know, one place that might have the desired "old school" style helmet padding is a second-hand sporting goods store. They might have some old football helmets for reasonable prices that could be gutted.
Just a thought!

Somer Lynne Photography Photographer
About MeMy name is Jennifer. My pictures are from my Senior photo shoot (2008), so those are the only semi-professional photos I have of myself. I have tanned out a bit so I am not as white. I also have grown my hair out to the middle of my back so I have a lot of that to work with. I can do my make-up so I do not think that would be a big issue with anyone except I can only do a natural look, nothing fancy. I do not do nudes or semi-nudes. Lengerie(wow I can't even spell that) I will not do. Boudior might me okay with a female photographer. I am just looking for something fun and crazy. Tasteful things. I feel I am pretty easy to work with and I like to have a good time while doing so. I wouldn't mind learning a bit of photography.
I no longer have my braces as shown in the photos. I will always have someone with me for a shoot AND I have no vehicle. =]
Sorry. =[

The longer answer: Alcohol, like any other drug, has lots of effects on the brain and body. One of the most obvious effects of alcohol is called "intoxication," which is a fancy word for "being drunk." When you are intoxicated:
How much alcohol is in a drink?
...this means:
One beer, one glass of wine, and one shot of liquor all contain the SAME AMOUNT OF ALCOHOL. To put it another way:
1 beer = 1 glass of wine = 1 shot of liquor
How much does it take to get drunk?
This answer is different for everyone, because a lot of different factors are involved, like how much you weigh, how much you've had to drink in the past, and your gender. But most average-sized adults will feel slightly drunk after only 1 drink, and feel very drunk after 3 or more drinks. Kids and teens, because they are smaller and have less experience drinking, can feel very drunk after only one or two drinks!
What does the law say about alcohol?
Laws about selling and drinking alcohol are different from state to state and country to country, but there is one law that applies to everyone in the United States: It is illegal for anyone under the age of 21 to buy or drink alcohol. As you probably know, there are also laws about "driving while intoxicated" or "driving while under the influence," which are meant to keep drunk drivers -- people who've had enough alcohol that it hurts their ability to drive -- off the roads. It's also against the law for an adult to serve or buy alcohol for someone who's under the legal age.
Does this mean that if your dad lets you try his beer one night, he could be arrested? Or if you have a sip of wine as part of a religious holiday, the police will come rushing in? No...but it's important that everyone in your family is aware of the laws and knows where to draw the line.

The Devil's Paw HTML version
Chapter 9
It was at some nameless hour in the early morning when Julian's vigil came to an end,
when the handle of his door was slowly turned, and the door itself pushed open and
closed again. Julian, lying stretched upon his bed, only half prepared for the night, with a
dressing gown wrapped around him, continued to breathe heavily, his eyes half-closed,
listening intently to the fluttering of light garments, the soft, almost noiseless footfall of
light feet. He heard her shake out his dinner coat, try the pockets, heard the stealthy
opening and closing of the drawers in his wardrobe. Presently the footsteps drew near to
his bed. For a moment he was obliged to set his teeth. A little waft of peculiar,
unanalysable perfume, half-fascinating, half-repellent, came to him with a sense of
disturbing familiarity. She paused by his bedside. He felt her hand steal under the pillow,
which his head scarcely touched; search the pockets of his dressing gown, search even
the bed. He listened to her soft breathing. The consciousness of her close and intimate
presence affected him in an inexplicable manner. Presently, to his intense relief, she
glided away from his immediate neighbourhood, and the moment for which he had
waited came. He heard her retreating footsteps pass through the communicating door into
his little sitting room, where he had purposely left a light burning. He slipped softly from
the bed and followed her. She was bending over an open desk as he crossed the threshold.
He closed the door and stood with his back to it.
"Much warmer," he said, "only, you see, it isn't there."
She started violently at the sound of his voice, but she did not immediately turn around.
When she did so, her demeanour was almost a shock to him. There was no sign of
nervousness or apology in her manner. Her eyes flashed at him angrily. She wore a loose
red wrap trimmed with white fur, a dishabille unusually and provokingly attractive.
"So you were shamming sleep!" she exclaimed indignantly.
"Entirely," he admitted.
Neither spoke for a moment. Her eyes fell upon a tumbler of whisky and soda, which
stood on a round table drawn up by the side of his easy-chair.
"I have not come to bed thirsty," he assured her. "I had another one downstairs - to which
I helped myself. This one I brought up to try if I could remember sufficient of my
chemistry to determine its contents. I have been able to decide, to my great relief, that
your intention was probably to content yourself with plunging me into only temporary
"I wanted you out of the way whilst I searched your rooms," she told him coolly. "If you
were not such an obstinate, pig-headed, unkind, prejudiced person, it would not have
been necessary."

My buddy is a south-paw and is looking for LEFT handed holsters for his new CW9.
Anyone have any ideas? He has been searching the web, but not finding much.
Thanks, Kev
Kahr Arms themselves offer several holsters for the CW9 in left hand versions.
"First gallant South Carolina nobly made the stand."
Edge of Darkness
Try: UGB Holster, HBE Holsters, K&D, MS, Don Hume, G&G, Brigade Gunleather, Kramer and I am sure there are others.
Thanks for the replies. I am now a member so I can speak myself. I found a few holster but they are wicked expensive. I was looking for a high ride but cant seem to find any.
I haven't used Fist, but some have given it high marks, including Twin Carry who has "tons" of holsters from the absolute best makers. I think the waiting time is not too long.
Any of the makers mentioned would probably make what your buddy needs, but sometimes waiting times are discouraging if you need one today.
Also try Galco. I have a Galco IWB and belt for my CW9. Fairly cheap and the IWB has the spare magazine holder.
Have your buddy contact me. I have The Slide already made ready to ship and maybe even more but will have to check inventory.
If they pay with CC or Paypal, I can ship out the next day.
"If everyone is thinking alike, then somebody isn't thinking" - George S. Patton.
Another plug from me for UBG; I have the Regulator OWB and have an order in for a Canute IWB for my Kahr.
"Naked and Starving as They are We Cannot Enough Admire the Incomparable Patience and Fidelity of the Soldiery" George Washington, Valley Forge, 1777.
I have the CW9 in a High Noon Holsters Split Decision, which was shipped immediately for less than $42 total. It's an IWB tuckable with a 15-degree cant. The Hidden Ally is the same with no cant.
High Noon makes excellent stuff, their regular line has a 5-6 month lead time for those few they don't stock, but these black economy models are all stocked for immediately shipment. The difference is no reinforced mouth so one-handed holstering isn't as easy, and it has less boning detail in the leather. Retention is still good and adjustable by retention screw. For the price and availability it's more than adequate for the CW9 IMO.
Kimber Pro CDP II Colt Combat Commander RIA M1911A2 Ultra FS HC 10mm Sarsilmaz K2-45
Springfield XD Mod.2 3.3" .45 (EDC) Springfield XD Mod.2 4" 9mm Glock 26 Ruger Mark III 22/45
You hit the bullseye with that one! Glad you like our products
Also we do have a Topless lined, black, left hand in stock for the CW9. If someone wants it, put the order in online and email or call and tell us its in stock
Take Care Justin
Thanks everybody for the replies.
My south-paw buddy is "captainkahr" who signed in above.
Thanks again, Kev
This is a Mitch Rosen Premier that I bought for my CW9. It is shown with a Sphinx, but the holster is made for the K9 and fits the CW9 fine. Not cheap but it fits the body very tightly.
P.S. This holster also can do triple duty as it holds the HK P7 PSP quite well also, (just a tiny bit loose).

Picking up my Jeep
I will either have picked it up tomorrow or the day after hopefully, I went with a demo with 3,000 miles, 2011 Overland Summit. But this post is to just ask anything in particular I should know or should be aware of when I pick it up. I've already read that I should have the 730RHR which I do so that's out of the way, I read the voice recognition is terrible, driver side mirror visor is flimsy, oh and the leather is quick to wear down. Oh and would like your opinion on installing running boards.
Anyways, here's my specs:
2011 Overland Summit, Black
Shiny Metallic Rims (I believe those are the newer ones that come on the later Summit's)
Saddle Brown.
Re: Picking up my Jeep
Hey congrats on your new JEEP! you will love it.. I have the overland in black/saddle (I couldn't get the summit as I am saving for a V1-'joke) I haven't had any issues with my jeep.. no seat wear etc.
When you switch the quadra lift to park. it sits pretty low. -

Philippines cruise past Cambodia, 5-0
By John Bayarong
HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM—The Philippines whipped Cambodia, 5-0, Thursday afternoon and booked a ticket to the semi-finals of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) U14 Regional Championships here at the Thong Nhat Stadium.
Thursday's Independence Day victory meant that the young Malditas topped group A with full 9 points. They will be playing Myanmar in the semi-finals on Saturday for a spot in the finals of the annual regional tournament on Sunday.
Midfielder Joyce Semacio's free kick flew straight and true in the 26th minute to open the scoring spree for the Philippines side. In response, Cambodia pulled back, with all 11 players crowding their own half.
Throughout the first half, the Philippines came up with beautiful runs in the left and right side, only to falter in final third, with most of the shots flying past the goal posts.
Visibly worried with a precarious lone goal lead well into the second half, the small group of Pinoy parents' wait was rewarded with a goal from Itsuko Bacatan in the 44th minute.
A sudden downpour turned the game upside down, with players falling over each other. In one instance, three players fell on top of the ball, resembling a rugby match, more than soccer. But even the soggy field could not slow down the Philippine side. Coach Leti Dimzon's halftime adjustments slowly gained traction forcing an own goal by the Cambodian goalkeeper at 55 minutes, and gifting the Pinoys with stabs from Lindsay Whaley and Chloe Hails in the 56th and 67th minute, respectively.
Defense was key to the Pinay's unbeaten run. This was highlighted by the 1-0 win over Vietnam where the lone goal of Lindsay Whaley of Olongapo City was enough to conquer the favorites and tournament host. To date, the Philippines have yet to allow a goal thanks to the goalkeeping heroics of Yasmin Elauria and Alezandria Gumilao.
In the other game, Vietnam made up for their loss beating Singapore, 3-0. Nguyen Thi Thu Hien led the way with goals in the 23rd and 57th minute while substitute defender Pham Dieu Linh added one in the 55th.
The U14 young Malditas, a motley crew from various parts of the country, is looking like a well-oiled machine coming into the semifinals, thanks to coach Dimzon and her band of sisters, namely; assistant coach Joyce Landagan, goalkeeper coach Isa Marquez and physiotherapist Katherine Anne Soriano.
This year's U14 team is composed of Metro Manila's Stacey Ann Arthur, Jennifer Baroin, Chloe Hails, Annika Velez, Glynnes dela Cruz; San Carlos City's Princess Beth Caparida, Tenelyn Otom, and Tejanee Isulat; Cebu's Jan Reese Jumawan, Itsuko Bacatan, Arantxa Trebol, and Alexandrea Gumilao; Olongapo City's Lindsay Whaley and Yasmin Elauria; Iloilo City's Francesca Suerte; Davao City's Patricia Francisco, and Joyce Semacio; and Hong Kong-based Mikayla Simons.

Russia and Britain can overcome their differences on Syria despite their disagreements, David Cameron said today after meeting President Vladimir Putin at Downing Street.
He told a press conference after the No 10 talks: "What I take from our conversation today is that we can overcome these differences if we recognise that we share some fundamental aims: to end the conflict, to stop Syria breaking apart, to let the Syrian people decide who governs them and to take the fight to the extremists and defeat them."
But President Putin warned against arming Syrian rebels, saying the foes of President Bashar al Assad ate human organs and should not be supported.
He told the press conference: "I think you will not deny that one does not really need to support the people who not only kill their enemies, but open up their bodies, eat their intestines, in front of the public and cameras.
"Are these the people you want to support? Is it them who you want to supply with weapons?"
The comments are his first since a decision by President Barack Obama to arm rebels trying to overthrow Assad.
Putin said Russia wanted to create the conditions for settling the two-year conflict.
President Putin had arrived an hour late for the talks ahead of the G8 summit.
He smiled and waved as he headed into No 10 where discussions were dominated by the Syrian crisis amid fears that differences between Moscow and the West are pushing the two sides towards a new Cold War.
The meeting comes on the eve of the G8 summit in Lough Erne.
Mr Putin has made no secret of his opposition to any move by the West to supply arms to the Syrian opposition.
He responded to the recent lifting of the EU arms embargo by reaffirming his intention to supply Assad with sophisticated anti-aircraft missiles in order to deter "hotheads" from intervening in the conflict.
The Russian president has also reacted sceptically to evidence produced by Britain, France and the US that the regime has used chemical weapons - crossing Mr Obama's "red line" for intervention.
Mr Cameron has welcomed Mr Obama's announcement, although he has yet to decide whether to follow the president's lead on supplying arms to the rebels.
However he said Britain would continue to offer non-lethal support to what he called the "genuine" opposition - saying it was vital to bolster the democratic elements against the extremists.
"Yes there are elements of the Syrian opposition that are deeply unsavoury, that are very dangerous, very extremist and I want nothing to do with them. I'd like them driven out of Syria - they're linked to al Qaida," he said in an interview with Sky News's Murnaghan programme.
"But there are elements of the Syrian opposition who want to see a free democratic, pluralistic Syria that respects the rights of minorities including Christians and we should be working with them - we are working with them.
"If we don't work with those elements of the Syrian opposition, then we can't be surprised if the only elements of the Syrian opposition that are getting, that are actually making any progress in Syria, are the ones that we don't approve of.
"After all, they are trying to defend their communities against appalling attacks, including, let's be clear, chemical weapon attacks. President Assad is now guilty of the most appalling crimes against his people - 90,000 people dead and some of them through the use of appalling chemical weapons."
Even if Mr Cameron were to decide that Britain should start supplying arms, he may find his path blocked in the face of strong opposition in Parliament across all three main parties.
The Prime Minister again reaffirmed the commitment wrung out of him by Tory rebels that he would give MPs a vote if he decided Britain should go ahead and arm the Syrian opposition.
"I think Parliament should have a say about these things. I can't really go further than that," he said
Liberal Democrat Cabinet minister Danny Alexander indicated that his party was likely to be wary about arming the rebels.
"Speaking personally and as a Liberal Democrat, the test I would apply is, is any proposed action actually going to make a difference? I don't think the case is proven yet," he told Channel 4 News.
"We are going to debate that in the Government over the coming weeks and we will see what conclusion we reach."

Bean there, Ground that!
Pros: Nice grind, lighting, easy to adjust settings
Cons: Noise, Static, durability
I purchased my first Smart grinder nine months ago. I was thrilled with it and thought I had found the perfect grinder for a French press grind that would change settings quick and easy. I was able to set the grinder to 8 cups and toss a precise charge (+/- 1 gram). This was worked well daily for 9 months until the machine started to produce a lot of static and began tossing a charge that was off by up to 20 grams. Luckily I had bought the unit at a local store that swapped it out for a new unit. Unfortunately the second copy is not nearly as accurate as the first and it produces more static. The Hopper holds 13 ounces of beans and has a nice tight fitting...(read more)

/// Christopher Nolan on Future of Film: 'It's Unthinkable That Extraordinary New Work Won't Emerge'
July 8, 2014 | Variety
With four months to go before Christopher Nolan's sci-fi drama "Interstellar" comes to theaters, the director has peered hopefully into the future of cinema. He forecasts major bumps along the way, but also plenty of opportunity for filmmakers because of the basic appeal of the medium in a column for the Wall Street Journal. "We… Read more

We recently finished some research into what clients need from our research – role "deep dives." Those of you who are clients of the sourcing and vendor management (SVM) role might remember having done one for us a while back. When SVM piloted that research last year, we used the information to refine our research strategy and create an SVM Roadmap. We then shared that roadmap with our clients in a teleconference to get more feedback into what you needed (and didn't) from us.

Built for basketball, the Big East is a big hit in March yet again.
Louisville, Pittsburgh and Connecticut helped the league that was created decades ago for hoops become the first conference to earn three No. 1 seeds in the NCAA tournament.
North Carolina, the regular-season Atlantic Coast Conference champion, was the other top seed.
Still, the headlines on Selection Sunday belonged to the Big East, the league that gave us Patrick Ewing and John Thompson, one of the game's biggest upsets (Villanova against Georgetown in 1985) and one of its greatest games (Syracuse against UConn in six overtimes just last week).
The coup of placing three teams on the top line comes 24 years after the Big East became the first league to get three teams in the Final Four - Georgetown, Villanova and St. John's.
So much has changed since then. And so much has stayed the same.
"It speaks volumes for what it means to win the Big East," said Louisville coach Rick Pitino, whose Cardinals are the tournament's overall top seed and will play in the Midwest.
The Cardinals (28-5), winners of the regular-season and conference championships in the nation's top-ranked conference, will open against the winner of an opening-round game Tuesday between Alabama State and Morehead State.
The rest of the tournament starts Thursday and Friday.
The Final Four is scheduled for Ford Field in Detroit on April 4 and 6. Last year, all four No. 1 teams made it to the Final Four. But Pitt (East), Carolina (South) and UConn (West) all know it's called March Madness for a reason - things rarely go to form.
So, time to break out the brackets, sharpen some pencils and pay into an office pool (or two).
Maybe do a little griping here and there.
Among the aggrieved: Duke and Memphis, both overlooked in the quest for top seeding, settling for No. 2 seeds despite winning their conference tournaments. Memphis often is downgraded for playing in the less-than-steller Conference USA, but John Calipari's team proved people wrong last year, making it to the national title game.
"I know people in the city are mad," he said. "That's OK. Good karma, good will."
At least they're in the big show.
Penn State, San Diego State and St. Mary's were among those left out despite some impressive credentials. St. Mary's went 26-6 but lost by 25 to Gonzaga in its conference tournament final.
"I was hoping common sense prevailed," coach Randy Bennett said. "Using common sense, we're one of the top 34 (at-large) teams. This was the best team we've ever had, so it's just disappointing to be in this situation."

Japanese fans who watched their national team be defeated by the Ivory Coast in the Fifa World Cup on Saturday showed it is possible to lose graciously, when they stayed behind after the match to help clean up.
Despite seeing the Blue Samurais lose 2-1 against Didier Drogba's team at the Arena Pernambuco in Recife, Japanese spectators armed with bin liners patrolled their side of the stadium and gathered up discarded litter, Yahoo Sport reported.
While gathering waste after a sporting event is customary in Japan, the spectators' actions came as a shock to football fans from other countries.As pictures of the scene spread online, Twitter users took to the social media website to praise the do-gooders.

Japan: Group C team profile
Japan: Group C team profile
1/5 How they qualified
Finishing top of the group standings was expected to be a formality when you consider the Asian nation's recent history for qualifying. This will be Japan's fifth straight World Cup appearance, and their side has perhaps never been stronger, having been the first nation to qualify. The standings certainly reflect that they were one of the strongest sides in qualifying, losing just once and scoring 16 goals in eight games. Alberto Zaccheroni's side had to recover from a disappointing Confederations Cup display, and have looked impressive against the lower sides in friendlies, but will now need to prepare to face some of the biggest teams in international football later this year.
2/5 Manager
A renowned figure in Italy after taking charge of AC Milan, Lazio, Inter Milan and Juventus so far in his career, 60-year-old Zaccheroni has performed admirably at the helm of Japan. In his first match as coach, he led the Asian nation to a famous 1-0 win over Argentina, and this set the precedent for his reign. Of his 54 games in charge, Zaccheroni has won 32 and lost just 11 times, making him one of the most successful managers in Japan's history. He guided Japan to their fourth AFC Asian Cup title in 2011, which led them to the 2013 Confederations Cup in Brazil. And although they failed to qualify for the latter stages of the competition, experience in the Brazilian climate will be something Zaccheroni can use to his advantage at the World Cup.
3/5 Star player
Even though this side contains Manchester United playmaker Shinji Kagawa, Keisuke Honda is still the key man. Creatively, he is a menace, operating behind the main striker Shinji Okazaki, and is certainly not afraid to advance forward with the ball at his feet. Honda is a natural leader and has been touted as a contender to take over as captain when veteran midfielder Endo retires. For a midfielder, his strike rate is impressive, with 20 goals coming in his 53 caps for Japan. He joined AC Milan on a free transfer in January after spells with CSKA Moscow, Nagoya Grampus and Dutch outfit VVV Venlo.
4/5 Emerging talent
One of the brightest talents to emerge from Japan in recent years, Sakai found himself being chased by top European clubs and sealed a switch to Stuttgart in January 2013, after a successful loan spell at the club. The 23-year-old attacking full-back is said to be the complete package and has been compared to German international Philipp Lahm since his move to the Bundesliga. Stuttgart honoured Sakai with a three-and-a-half-year deal, but the right-back is likely to remain behind Atsuto Uchida in the pecking order in Brazil.
5/5 Formation: (4-2-3-1)
Kawashina; Uchida, Morishige, Yoshida, Nagatomo; Endo, Hasebe; Kiyotake, Honda, Kagawa; Kakitani
Following their wrenching defeat against Ivory Coast, the Blue Samurais are currently 3rd in Group C, and must defeat Greece and Colombia in their remaining group matches to make it past the knockout stages. Many regard the Japanese to be the strongest team from the Asian continent in the World Cup finals.
Japan and South Korea jointly hosted the World Cup finals in 2002, the first time the tournament was held in Asia. At the last World Cup in 2010 in South Africa, Japan made it through their group only to be knocked out by Paraguay in the last 16.Reuse content

The star Kootenay Ice hockey player was admitted to a Saskatoon hospital early this month after being diagnosed with meningitis.
Bozon's parents said in a media release that he is awake, moving around in his bed, trying to feed himself and trying to speak.
He had been in a coma and doctors were slowly trying to wake him up.
The Bozon family is thankful for the support they are receiving through things like anonymous gifts, restaurant vouchers and fruit baskets.
The WHL has created a trust fund to help the Bozons pay for medical bills. Donations can be made at any BMO Bank of Montreal branch in Western Canada. Donations can be sent to the Tim Bozon Trust c/o Western Hockey League 2424 University Drive NW Calgary Alta., T2N 3Y9.

Sept. 23, 2012
Site: Madison, Wis. (McClimon Soccer Complex)
Score: Michigan 3, #14 Wisconsin 0
Records: U-M (9-2-0, 3-0-0 Big Ten), Wisconsin (7-3-0, 1-2-0)
Next U-M Event: Friday, Sept. 28 -- vs. Iowa (U-M Soccer Stadium), 7 p.m.
MADISON, Wis. -- Junior Nkem Ezurike (Lower Sackville, Nova Scotia/Sackville) scored two goals and freshman Christina Ordonez (Elmhurst, Ill./York) added a third, as the University of Michigan women's soccer team earned a school-record fifth straight shutout victory, upsetting No. 14 Wisconsin, 3-0, on Sunday (Sept. 23) at the McClimon Soccer Complex.
Ezurike made the most of a flurry of Wolverine chances early, scoring her fourth goal of the season in the 16th minute to give U-M a 1-0 lead. Junior Meghan Toohey (Philadelphia, Pa./Phil-Mont Christian) sent a long ball down the field to Ezurike, who got behind the Wisconsin defense for a one-on-one scoring chance with Badgers goalkeeper Lauren Gunderson. Ezurike took a few dribbles then slipped the ball past Gunderson into the lower-left corner of the net for the goal.
The Wolverines had two other good scoring opportunities in the first half but could not score on either. In the 24th minute, Ezurike corralled the ball and turned away from two Wisconsin defenders inside the 18-yard box, but her shot was deflected by Gunderson. In the 41st minute, Wisconsin was whistled for a foul after freshman Christina Ordonez (Elmhurst, Ill./York) was taken down just outside the 18-yard box. Ordonez stepped up to take the free kick, but her shot was high of the net, and Michigan went into the locker room at halftime with its 1-0 lead intact, with the defense allowing only three Wisconsin shots (none on goal).
Less than a minute into the second half, the Badgers turned the ball over in their own third on an errant pass. Freshman Corinne Harris (Chicago, Ill./Walter Payton College Prep). intercepted it and played a give-and-go with Ezurike down into the six-yard box, with Ezurike finishing the play with her second goal of the match to increase the Wolverines' lead to 2-0. Ezurike nearly had the hat trick on another breakaway, but she did not get enough of her shot, which was easily saved by Gunderson.
Ordonez added an insurance goal in the 78th minute to make the score 3-0. Ordonez took a pass from senior Emily Jaffe (Ann Arbor, Mich./Pioneer) on the far side of the field and outran the Wisconsin defense for 30 yards. Her run lured Gunderson out of the box, and Ordonez capitalized, placing her shot in the lower left corner of the net for the goal.
The Michigan defense once again shut down any opposing offense en route to its eighth shutout of the season. The Badgers did not have a real scoring threat until the final minutes of the match, as three of their four shots on goal came in the final three minutes of the match. Fifth-year senior Haley Kopmeyer (Troy, Mich./Lahser) made four saves in goal for her sixth individual shutout of the season.
Michigan plays four of its next five matches at the U-M Soccer Stadium, beginning on Friday (Sept. 28) against Iowa. The match will begin at 7 p.m.

With the recent second hype about VoIP I'm always a bit puzzled
why people imply that you have to get "VoIP service" if you
want an IP based PBX.
I'd take an IP based system any time, but:
- rent a conventional phone service -> no problem with 911
- buy, not rent an IP based PBX and end systems (aka "Phones" ;-)
- run VoIP on my strictly internal network
I like VoIP, I agree with Marcus that it's loaden with
probable security risks but if you know about them, you simply
don't connect it to any public network.
So, if you act like I would, what does VoIP buy you in the end?
At least in Germany PBX systems are the most "locked in" pieces
of IT that I've ever come across. Ridiculous licensing models,
no documentation, vendors force you to rent their service
for simple configuration tasks or charge ridiculous amounts
for their propriatary configuration software.
If you happen to actually buy instead of rent a PBX by a company
that does provide documentation (like Ascom, Switzerland, for example)
the configuration concepts of a PBX are rather weird to networking
people (IMHO).
We sell the products of a German company named Innovaphone. They
produce fine (again, IMHO) IP based PBX systems - they are much
more similar to the configuration philosophies we are acustomed
to - routing based on longest prefix match, for example.
You simply buy the stuff, it comes with full docs, you set it
up. Period. No extra fees.
Their IP based phones can fetch the central phone book from an LDAP
The phone registers itself at the PBX with its MAC address.
Unplug phone, go to next office, replug - you just moved
including maintaining yor phone number ...
I simply appreciate the similar concepts, the flexibilty in
configuration an the fact that it's completely under my
control. We've been using this stuff since 1998, so the vendor's
been around at least for a while. We have Country and Western
- we have a conventional PBX and the Innovaphone Equipment
connected to it. If I'd buy completely new, I'd go completely
And in case of a power failure - our conventional PBX doesn't
have an emergency power supply. I have a cellphone.
And power failures in Germany are typically in the seconds range
and occur _very_ rarely.
I've had more downtime due to UPS's breaking than due to real
power outages.
