Orbcomm Satellite Falls Out of Orbit, Offers Enough Data Despite SpaceX Mishap

Orbcomm said it will be filing an insurance claim of $10 million to cover the prototype satellite as well as the cost of the launch and insurance policy
Orbcomm's prototype second-generation satellite, OG2, has fallen out of orbit after SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket failed to launch it into the correct trajectory.
Orbcomm, a satellite messaging service provider, had sent its OG2 prototype into space aboard SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket during
the Oct. 7 launch to the International Space Station
(ISS). The main mission was to send the Dragon capsule to the ISS for supplies, but NASA and SpaceX agreed to let Orbcomm send a satellite high into orbit on the Falcon 9 as a secondary part of the mission.
However, a small mishap occurred during the Oct. 7 flight: one of the nine Merlin first-stage engines on Falcon 9 shut down.
The Falcon 9 was still able to
lift the Dragon to the ISS
successfully on Oct. 10, but it was unable to launch the OG2 prototype far enough into orbit to collect an optimal amount of data. It wandered for four days before falling out of orbit.
However, Orbcomm said that wandering satellite gathered enough data in the nearly four-day period to proceed with the full constellation launch next year. The constellation launch consists of sending 18 second-generation satellites into orbit aboard two Falcon 9 rockets.
Orbcomm said it will be filing an insurance claim of $10 million to cover the prototype satellite as well as the cost of the launch and insurance policy. If the insurance underwriters accept this, Orbcomm will not need to launch another prototype. Rather, it would be able to launch all 18 satellites starting next year thanks to the amount of data collected during the recent launch.
SpaceX added that Orbcomm knew that there was a chance that OG2 wouldn't make it into the correct orbit beforehand.
"It is important to appreciate that Orbcomm understoof from the beginning that the orbit-raising maneuver was tentative," said Katherine Nelson, SpaceX spokeswoman. "They accepted that there was a high risk of their satellite remaining at the Dragon insertion orbit. SpaceX would not have agreed to fly their satellite otherwise, since this was not part of the core mission and there was a known, material risk of no altitude raise."
SpaceX's Dragon is currently at the ISS unloading 882 pounds of cargo, and will bring twice that amount of cargo back to Earth near the end of October.
"Well, we didn't have anyone in line that got shot waiting for our system." -- Nintendo of America Vice President Perrin Kaplan

Michigan is 2-10 for the first time since 2002.
Freshman RF Michael O'Neill was 1-for-3 with a walk, a hit-by-pitch and three stolen bases. O'Neill extended his team-leading hitting streak to 12 games with a fifth-inning single. O'Neill, who is hitting .383 (18-for-47), has at least one hit in every game in his U-M career.
O'Neill leads the Wolverines with eight stolen bases and his three stolen bases on Friday marked the most since sophomore CF Patrick Biondi had three against Fordham on March 20 last year.
Sophomore CF Patrick Biondi, who is hitting .327 (16-for-49), was 2-for-5 as he extended his personal season-best hitting streak to seven games with his first-inning run-scoring single. Biondi, hitting third in the lineup for the first time, has six multi-hit games this season and 27 for his U-M career.
Biondi, who ranks second on the team with six stolen bases, collected his 35th career stolen base.
Senior co-captain 2B Anthony Toth, who is hitting .289 (13-for-45), was 2-for-5 to extend his personal season-best hitting streak to five games. Toth has hits in 13 of his last 15 games as a Wolverine. Toth has four multi-hit games this season and 45 for his U-M career.
Junior 3B John Lorenz, who is hitting .260 (13-for-50) for the season, was 2-for-5 with three runs batted in. Lorenz has hits in 10 of Michigan's 12 games this season and he has hits in 24 of his last 26 games over the past two seasons. Lorenz has 31 career multi-hit games.
Freshman Alex Lakatos, who is hitting .357 (5-for-14), was 2-for-4 with a walk while making his first U-M start at DH. Lakatos has a pair of two-hit games in his six games as a Wolverine.
Junior/sophomore RHP Kevin Vangheluwe paced the Wolverine pitching staff as he worked five scoreless innings, allowing four hits while recording a career-best seven strikeouts. The seven strikeouts matched U-M's season best set by junior/sophomore RHP Tyler Mills against Massachusetts on March 4.

Xavier Thames on 2013 Cousy Award Watch List
Dec. 20, 2012
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. - San Diego State junior guard Xavier Thames is a candidate for the 2013 Bob Cousy Collegiate Point Guard of the Year Award, the Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame announced today. The annual honor, named for Hall of Famer and former Boston Celtic Bob Cousy, recognizes the top point guards in men's college basketball. Over 80 candidates have been nominated for the 2013 Bob Cousy Award.
Thames, a Sacramento, Calif., native is in his second year at SDSU, averaging 10.4 points, 2.6 rebounds and 3.0 assists, while starting all 10 games for the No. 18/15 Aztecs. A season ago, Thames earned 2012 Mountain West honorable mention accolades after he helped San Diego State to a share of the MW regular-season crown.
Thames is the second Aztec to be nominated for the award in school history, following in the footsteps of D.J. Gay during the 2010-11 campaign. That season, Gay finished as one of 10 finalists for the prestigious honor.
"The Hall of Fame is proud to continue its mission with Mr. Cousy to celebrate and honor the top collegiate point guards in the country," said John L. Doleva, President and CEO of the Basketball Hall of Fame. "This list represents a large range of college basketball's top student athletes from across the country. We are excited to recognize these players for their continuous hard work and dedication."
"The Bob Cousy Award promotes the values of leadership, determination, and teamwork, all skills needed on the basketball court and in life," said Ken Kaufman, Chair of the Bob Cousy Award and former president of the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC). "Mr. Cousy exemplified all of these traits, and inspired so many people on and off the court. We hope that this coveted award continues to honor his legacy."
This watch list of candidates will be narrowed down to a final 20 around January 1, final 10 near February 1, and final five by approximately March 1. A premier Selection Committee has been appointed by the Hall of Fame to review the final five candidates in contention for the nation's top collegiate point guard award. These Hall of Fame committees are made up of top college basketball personnel including media members, head coaches, sports information directors and Hall of Famers. The winner of the 2013 Bob Cousy Award will be presented at the Hall of Fame's Class Announcement on Championship Monday in Atlanta as part of NCAA Final Four weekend.
Previous winners of the Bob Cousy Award have included Jameer Nelson (St. Joseph's), Raymond Felton (North Carolina), Dee Brown (Illinois), Acie Law (Texas A & M), DJ Augustin (Texas), Ty Lawson (North Carolina), Greivis Vasquez (Maryland), Kemba Walker (Connecticut) and last year's recipient Kendall Marshall (North Carolina).

|Puppet Panache: Temperamental stars have to rein it in as they learn to pull each other's strings.
Back in the 1960s and '70s, when rally cries were a staple of the protest movements, someone lustily yelled out, "Power to the people." And that citizen scream stuck. "Power to the people": it is concise, easy to remember, and encompasses a lot of situations. All in all, it's a great catchphrase.
This weekend, I found myself enmeshed in a world where "Puppet Up" was bellowed over and over, and a tiny, furry, loving red beast reduced grown men and women to tears. Yep, I had a "puppet power" marathon. It wasn't intentional, but its results were inspirational.
By accident, I stumbled across the PBS TV series "Independent Lens." This week's airing was the fascinating documentary "Being Elmo." If you're like me, you often forget that there is a hand, and a heart, attached to the creatures that dwell on Sesame Street. These figures are so lively and personable that they all seem to be autonomous and, well, real. "Being Elmo" focuses on the man who gives the little monster—a term that predates Lady Gaga—his voice, his vision, and his versatility. The puppeteer's name is Kevin Clash, and he is an engaging figure because he seems to be doing exactly what he was fated to do. With another nod to Gaga, Clash is a puppeteer because he was born that way.
Growing up in a working-class section of Baltimore County, Maryland, Clash forgot the scarred landscape of his hometown and allowed himself to be swept away by the allure of hand puppets and emoting mascots. When "Sesame Street" began to air on Public Broadcasting in 1969, the 9-year-old was intrigued. He immediately started to figure out how the characters were stuffed, strung, and seamed. This was a process he wanted to try his own hand at. After trial and error, over many, many years, the young man became a performer who entertained at birthday parties, children's hospitals, and finally on a local affiliate's children's TV program.
The reason why this documentary, narrated by Whoopi Goldberg, is so effective is because the journey is upbeat and uplifting. Though Clash has personal setbacks along the way—his marriage falls apart; he realizes he has spent more time in front of strangers' children than his own 16-year-old daughter—he never feels sorry for himself nor does he shirk his responsibilities.
Winning awards for his artistry, gaining status as a pop culture icon—name one person who didn't go crazy for a "Tickle Me, Elmo"—and earning credentials as a performer and a producer, Kevin Clash shows viewers that his greatest role is as enlightened human being. Helping others who are also bitten by the puppet bug, he mentors, coaches, and inspires. That's a great legacy for a funny, fuzzy furball with a toddler's speech pattern and a childlike sense of wonder.
While Mr. Clash spreads good cheer and positive thoughts with his character, the cast of "The Celebrity Apprentice" clash with one another, hurl bleeped-out comments, and distribute more negatives than a photo-development lab. This week's task for the remaining "famous" folks who want to be Mr. Trump's star surrogate centered on—you got it—puppets! And not just any puppets. The last 8 contestants were asked to design two original creations, imbue them with personalities, and improvise with them during the Henson Company's adults-only show, "Stuffed and Unstrung."
What was so interesting about this challenge is that it asked these ingénues—none of them, except for Clay Aiken, had ever handled a puppet—to make that necessary transition from being front and center to being crouched down and out of sight.
The souls who attempted to put their souls into a mishmash of felt, feathers, and Ping-Pong balls were Clay Aiken, the perennial "Boy Next Door" from "American Idol," and Lisa Lampanelli, the self-described "Queen of Mean," versus Arsenio "Dog Pound" Hall and Teresa "Table Flipper" Giudice.
For neophytes, their labors were much better than I would have anticipated, and Clay Aiken showed off a naughty wit and a propensity toward British accents. He actually had his grown-up crowd laughing and applauding.
As I watched this reality show, which begs the notion of "reality," I couldn't help but be impressed by the power of puppets. The last 8 participants are a ragtag band of attention-seekers, glory hounds, needy and desperate housewives, loud and affected C-listers, deposed beauty queens, and Vegas magicians who would rather be anywhere else at this moment. Still, they all managed to come together—with only one emotional, teary, obscenity-spewing breakdown—and put on a darn funny show.Perhaps these celebrities, and wannabe celebs, fell under the spell of puppets and puppetry, just like Kevin Clash did more than 40 years ago. When a bundle of fabric and a parcel of pipe cleaners, a handful of glitter and a workshop's worth of wool, are handed to you and you're told to create and become, you have to rise to the challenge. In order to be the most convincing puppet possible, you have to tap into your most vulnerable and lovable side. You have to be willing to be totally and anonymously human—even if you are a celebrity apprentice.

I think the important thing is more RAM, which will result in better RTS, strategy, tycoon, etc. games. PCs have always been the only way to go for those types of games because of consoles' s****y RAM. The PS4 is supposed to have 8GB of RAM right?
Latest rumor (or "leak") had it at 4 gigs of GDDR5.
but it could still be up in the air, subject to change. For instance. AMD has been doing bad lately.
MaliciousMongo 4 years ago#12
I agree about the RAM thing but though I'm no programmer, I do believe a game on a console with half as much RAM as a comparable PC can still perform on-par with the PC.
Why? Because consoles, even with the advancements made over this current gen, still can't do the millions of things that a PC can do (word-processing, writing html, gaming, etc) that all bog down the system in addition to the OS (Operating System) itself which takes up a decent amount of "bandwidth."
Don't get it twisted, like I said, I'm no expert. I could be horribly wrong. But I do believe no one ever takes these things into account when they compare their highly-touted 10GB RAM custom monster PC to a console.

I think the important thing is more RAM, which will result in better RTS, strategy, tycoon, etc. games. PCs have always been the only way to go for those types of games because of consoles' s****y RAM. The PS4 is supposed to have 8GB of RAM right? Much better than the horrible 520MB consoles have now.
I always thought this was a control issue, as those games play infinitely better with the quick point and click movement of the mouse.
I'll never understand the logic that graphics and gameplay are mutually exclusive aspects of game design.
The next consoles will focus more on networking than anything else. Graphics will see a reasonable boost, but it's going to be all about the features of the console, not the horsepower.

There's still a lot we can do. Just look at the best looking PC games today and compare them to the console games. Already a major leap. However, there are several issues with the PS3 we can easily fix with the new system:
- No more 540p / sub-HD graphics. Make it a requirement that all games render in 1080p native.
- 3D capabilities for all games. I would allow 3D games to be rendered at 720p if necessary, but would advise against it. (although as far as I know there isn't a standard 1080p60 frame packed 3D standard right now)
- Make it a requirement that some form of Anti-aliasing is required. With plasmas and LCD/LED TVs, the pixels are too clear to not have AA. No AA was okay for CRT TVs, because their pixels weren't all that sharp, but it just doesn't cut it anymore. Post processed AA can often look as good as 4x AA, but uses less processing power than 2x AA, so it may be a good place to go to for those games that need the full power of the system, but true AA should be preferred over post processed.
- Polygon count. For the most part, this applies to in-game character models, as well as organic scenery decorations such as trees.
- Skin shaders. We're doing good. If you look at Heavy Rain or Uncharted 2/3, we've got some good skin shaders, but this should be standard with every game with human characters. No more plastic/rubber looking skin please.
- Water simulation. We're seeing some good water simulation with Uncharted 3 and Assassin's Creed 3, but it could still be improved. The same with fire effects and other particle simulated effects.
- Hair. The Uncharted games have some of the best real time hair I've seen, but it can be better. Higher poly, better facial hair, better hair physics.
- Grass. Some games have decent grass, but almost all grass this gen is layered flat images. We can improve the look and interaction with grass.
- Better in game facial animation. While cutscene facial animation is very well done, typically in game there are less polygons to deal with, so the animation suffers. The AC games do a decent job with it, but it can still be improved substantially.
- In game reflections. We've seen some of this, but not a whole lot. In game reflection should be improved. Better resolution and work better with non-flat objects.
- Tesselation for things like bricks on the side of buildings, or other objects with added detail. Should be used wisely though. If you're far enough away, normal maps should be sufficient. Used wisely it can even reduce the amount of polygons for further away objects, make close up objects far more detailed. Used unwisely it can unnecessarily increase polygon count and lower frame rates.
- Global illumination. This can be done with prerendered textures for a very realistic look, but with objects that react dynamically, there are methods to simulate it in real time as well. This should be used more often. It would be a substantial improvement over existing SSAO implementations.
- Better shadows. While we have shadows, even in the nicest looking games these shadows are very low resolution. This should be an easy fix with the added ram and power.
What people constantly forgets is that only the biggest publishers will be able to afford to make CGI-like graphics in the first place. No matter the hardware, small companies won't be able to achieve that.
I just hope the Ps4 won't be $599... then it'll be crushed by the iPad.

Devs like Naughy Dog, Santa Monica etc. will eventually move on from the PS3.

What reason is there to jump into any new gen? Simple the games.

The Chanel Wall of Fame4 comments
As long as I can remember, I have been saying that I will buy a Chanel 2.55 bag with my first pay-check. That pay-check has come and gone over a year ago and I'm still in craving mode. But this bag is still my ultimate and favorite.
When one of my favorite go-to websites, The Coveteur, created "The Coveteur Hall of Fame" with their favorites of rare Chanel bags, I was in love. If you read the site on a regular basis, you get the opportunity to look into the closet and houses of trendsetters and industry professionals. This time they made a collection of all their visits showing the rarest and most beautiful Chanel pieces of their subjects. You will find the gems of Harley Viera Newton, Charlotte Ronson, Nicole Chavez (the trusted stylist of Rachel Bilson), Cher Coulter (stylist of Kate Bosworth), Kelly Sawyer, Estee Stanley, Suzanne Rogers, Jen Brill and many more. Here is a selection of my favorite pictures but if you want to read to entire article -and you should-, be sure to go to The Coveteur itself.
I'm so excited to let you know that I've started a new blog. You can find me on Rooftop Antics. See you there!

Outer Axle Seal Replacement
and Supplies
1: Removing the Tires and Draining the Rear Differential
Note: one reader provided me feedback that the 24mm drain bolt is soft metal. He used a 12 point instead of 6 point socket and rounded it off. Thus as a precaution, use a 6 point socket and use some PB Blaster the night before to loosen the plug.
While your
vehicle is still on the ground, use a 21mm deep socket and a cheater bar
to loosen up the lug nuts on each rear tire. Next, pull your e-brake,
chock your front tires, and jack up your vehicle at the rear axle pumpkin.
Set the jack stands on the rear frame and bring your vehicle slowly down
on your jack stands. Once the tire is off the vehicle, remove the retaining
pin from the emergency brake lever mechanism at the backing plate and
move the cable out of the way. Then, the hydraulic brake line can be removed
from the backing plate. If you don't have a flare tool, remember the line
fitting nut is soft and subject to rounding off, so be careful.
You are
almost done. Reinstall everything else in reverse order. On the four 14mm
backing plate bolts removed in Step 2, make sure you put a little Red
Loctite on the threads before reinstalling and torque down to 51lbs.
5: Brake Fluid and Rear Differential Fluid Replenishment
In addition, you will need to add some rear differential oil in the rear axle. You may choose to top off or completely drain and replenish it. Read my differential fluid writeup here to see how its done.

oops, yes yes, longer bolts needed ... not sure of the details off hand i think the receipt for the parts are in the car some where ...
so what lentgh are the standard bolts?? and where you get longer ones??
I'll take a measurment of the standard bolts in a while when i've time and let you know, the garage i got the coils fitted at provided the adapters and the bolts... H&R spacers and bolt kits from what i recall, however i'll have to get the invoice to be 100% sure
Ok my stock bolts have about 24.5mm of thread on them... so i can only assume the new bolts were about the 35 mm mark..
Must go see if i can get a decent set now, there not exactally the prettiest of bolts ever
Last edited by IrlDrag; 13-05-2010 at 12:33.
so how do you go about the longer locking wheel nut on each wheel?
you can buy longer locking bolts...
i think you are misunderstanding the other guys, there saying, that if you like I install coilovers and use spacers you wont have lock nuts, however as pointed out, you can get some... where you can get them i'm afraid i've no idea ...
As for spacers, check out any garages or maybe halfords ?? i cant really say as i'm in ireland ..
na i dont miss understand,

Viva La Muerte
The fascination with death that exists in some Latino cultures intrigues people from a variety of ethnic backgrounds. For most of us, death is a morbid affair, met with extreme fear and a nearly maudlin ceremonial aspect involving trussing up dead loved ones as if to pretend that, if only for a few hours, they're still with us. Latino traditions surrounding death, however, are entirely different. Most of us know about Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, traditionally celebrated in Spanish-speaking countries around the globe on November 1. Since this pretty much coincides with Halloween, it lends another dimension to the frights and chills we crave in late October by celebrating loved ones who have passed on. It's not about zombies and Barney costumes, clearlyit's about honoring life. Along with the honor and respect, though, comes an element of the morbid: frank and chilling conversations about death, dying and killing abound. Since the Middle Ages, Latino cultures (among others) have explored these themes in Teatro Breve, or Brief Theatre, during five- to 20-minute-long plays. Theatre of Death: The Deadliest Plays presents 11 such short plays (from traditional pieces to more modern expositions) from Thursday through Halloween night at the Stone Cottage Theatre, 15650 Addison Road in Addison. The plays are not appropriate for the kiddos, so book your baby sitter and visit theatreofdeath.com for tickets and more information.

This very fine portrait is somewhat compromised by the overpainted background. The sitter, a member of Jahangir's court, remains unknown. On the belt is inscribed the name of the painter, Nadir al-Zaman ("the Wonder of the World"), the honorific title given by Jahangir to Abul Hasan, his favourite artist. Born in c. 1558-59 as the son of the painter Aqa Riza of Herat, Abul Hasan was familiar with European painting.

Trustees of Mid-Continent University disagree on whether the school will have to close its doors this semester because of financial problems.
Board member Gale Hawkins said trustees and members of the finance committee along with chairman Tom Butler had a conference call with federal government officials Thursday afternoon regarding concerns about the school's financial standing. Hawkins said he requested the call directly with government officials because of a lack of information from Butler and other school leaders to the board.
Following the call, Hawkins said he believes that because of ongoing financial oversights, the Mayfield school will close.
"There is no money coming in, the government doesn't owe us any," he said. "We have just been trying to survive until graduation."
The school's problem revolves around a lack of required documented information to justify student loan and grant expenses. The school has had to return all federal funding since 2007, he said. The magnitude of the problem came out last fall after a consultant working to correct the fiscal issues was fired by the school administration, according to Hawkins.
"You don't expect your committee to be kept in the dark about issues of this magnitude," he said.
School funds dipped from $7 million to the $100,000 range quickly because money had to be loaned to students. Since November 2010, Mid-Continent has had to lend between $46 and $90 million to support its students, he said.
"You have to be honest with the government," Hawkins said. "When you have a budget of only $22 million, you can't screw up."
Butler called it a "serious situation" but expressed a more optimistic view Thursday following the call with Department of Education officials based in Kansas City. He said leaders are now preparing a new submission of student financial aid and grant paperwork that has been rejected by the U.S. Department of Education twice since October.
"We are working to consider steps toward an action plan that is aimed at buying us some time and possibly assuring our future," he said. "If the funds are unlocked, we are in good shape but we have to consider how to get through the next one to two weeks."
Because the school is currently accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), any past credits earned by students would be transferable to other institutions. However if the school is closed mid-semester students wouldn't receive credit for ongoing classes.
Mid-Continent was placed on the accreditation warning list in December 2012 and remained after a review last December, according to the SACS school disclosure statement issued Dec. 19. The statement reads that Mid-Continent was put in the warning category because of non-compliance with core requirements, comprehensive standards, or federal requirements of accreditation. The maximum amount of time a school can be monitored is two years, which would end this December.
Hawkins said many questions remain such as - how information flow was restricted to members of the Board of Trustees, how the same mistakes in paperwork were repeatedly made without correction and where the money has gone.
He pointed to the leadership of university president Robert Imhoff and inaction on the part of key decision-makers to take heed of the warning signs that appeared as early as 2004. Butler confirmed that Imhoff has agreed to step aside, which will not be official until approval from the board.
"Well, when there is no money and the school is closing, it's a pretty easy decision to step down," Hawkins said.
Another concern that has been raised is the number of Imhoff relatives working at the university.
Other employees listed on the school's electronic staff directory with the same last name include - Jackie Imhoff, vice president for adult programs; Keegan Imhoff, online pathway program manager; Ruth Imhoff, athletic budget director; Kevin Imhoff, director of athletic advancement; and Laia Imhoff, head spirit squad coach. Hawkins said in total there are nine relatives of the current president working at the school for a total cost of about $1 million per year.
The next Board of Trustees meeting is set for 11 a.m. Saturday in the Advantage building at the school, according to Butler. He said the board will meet to discuss possible plans and hear judgment from members during an executive session that will last several hours. He wouldn't elaborate on details of the agenda or whether Imhoff's status would be discussed.
"The meeting will focus on what will keep us open and going now and other items will be moved down the list of priorities," Butler said.
Messages left Thursday at Imhoff's office and with school chief of staff Bill Bartleman were not returned.

+ 1 on the Cricket. Got one for my daughter when she turned 7.
Plenty of time for the 10/22 in a couple of years IMO.....
That Henry Youth might be a choice if you want a repeater but I agree with those that recommend a Single for the the first one.
Or how about a Cricket?
Or how about the new Remington model 5 youth? I like this one because of the single shot adapter and then the 5 shot mag too.
You might even consider something like a Savage Model 24 over under which gives you a 20 gauge bottom and .22LR upper both in single shot for something he can use both ways. I think there is a youth length in that too. Also you could find an old Stevens 22-410 for that sort of thing.
Lots of other choices. A good Youth length will last him a while and be something he can hand down to his kids.
anything small , bolt action , and single shot.

The Henry mini bolt action .22 I got for my son is a single shot on the same pattern of the Cricket.

I carry a Colt Delta Elite 10mm in Milt Sparks VM2 with 2 extra magazines on my belt. This is normally worn on a belt under my bib overalls and works great for me. My wife carries a Walther PPS .40 w/Crossbreed holster.
I am going to pick up a Cricket at the end of the week for my 7yr. old. My local shop can get it for $140, Sportsman's Warehouse has them for $149 and Walmart sells them for $90. Seems to be a good starter rifle. I learned on a .22 singleshot Remington at about the same age. I started a thread on the Cricket over in the General Firearm Discussions section .
Thanks, I do see where the single shot bolt action will be the best for several reasons. Now all I have to do is decide on the make and model!
Think twice
Buy once!
You might look at a cricket, it's a single shot .22 these rifles are very compact. IMO these rifles are a good choice for teaching our youth proper firearm safty and shooting. you can find them at wal-mart, (well at least the ones who still have the display case) for around $100
I bought my son a Savage Cub last year. It's a single shot with an Accutrigger. Savage did a really nice job. Next up....We've got a Winchester 94-22mag. My son helped pick it out....guess he's watched a few old westerns with his old man!
Here's what the Cub looks like:
Savage Arms Mini Youth Model Cub
I think starting off with a single shot makes sense when teaching firearms safety and how to handle a rifle. Then, move them into a 10/22 or other semi.
Just my two cents worth,
Ruger or Marlin carbine 22.

I am think about a Rossi single shot, with changable barrels from .22lr to .410.
A real man loves his wife, and places his family as the most important thing in life. Nothing has brought me more peace and content in life than simply being a good husband and father.
I learned to shoot on a bolt action .22 with sights, and I recommend the same-a clip loaded rather than a tube magazine, but a bolt action with sights for sure. I have a 30+ year old Marlin Glenfield that is still accurate enough for squirrel hunting and cost under $100.
I'd hold off on a semi auto till he learns to shoot well and safely and make his shot count.
FWIW, I learned to shoot in the Cub Scouts well over 50 years ago. The boy scouts awarded merit badges for marksmanship, but I don't know it they still do. Might be something to investigate.
The Chipmunk made by Rogue Rifle Co. is a good bolt .22 for kids. I like the 10/22, but for reasons previously stated plus the fact that the stock setup is a little on the heavy side for kids, I would go with a kid's size bolt.

Three more directors have quit the board of Australia's peak business lobby group amid allegations of fiduciary failing on a broad scale.
Women's employment advocate and business strategist Judith van Unen will resign from the Council of Small Business of Australia following a board meeting on Friday.
She joins Australian Women Chamber of Commerce and Industry executive director
The three other board members who have resigned also raised concerns about COSBOA's governance arrangements. The actions of COSBOA executive director Peter Strong are the focus of complaints, although he denies having acted inappropriately.
Mr Strong defended himself on Thursday, saying financial audits had turned up nothing untoward. He is understood to have the backing of the 30 or so member organisations. He could not be contacted late on Friday.
Ms van Unen, the joint chief executive of non-profit women's justice group JERA International, told AFR Weekend she had "no confidence" COSBOA would change and she planned to give in her resignation on Friday evening. In her resignation letter, Ms Vega said she could not be a part of an organisation that "deliberately ignores [Australian Securities and Investments Commission] regulation and its own constitution".
Nor could she continue with an organisation that "knowingly supports an executive officer that refuses to be accountable, fails to deliver financial documentation and board meeting minutes, is incapable of writing reports and deliberately ignores his fiduciary duties", she wrote.
"Furthermore, on a personal note, I cannot be involved with an organisation that accepts financial support from the tobacco industry."
Ms Zelinsky told AFR Weekend: "I have been concerned about the financial reporting and transparency since I took up my directorship 14 months. I have repeatedly asked for financial reports and was mostly ignored.
She is the chief executive of Business Enterprise Centres Australia, a non-profit organisation that provides support for a network of advice centres for small businesses.
Former COSBOA board chairman,
He resigned at the end of 2012, claiming the council's financial solvency was dependent upon tobacco interests.
"[COSBOA's] attention to governance is near non-existent" he said on Friday.
"Membership records were verging on being non-existent."

With all due respects to Cindy Sheehan. I can breath easier now that the investigation into the Valerie Plame-Wilson outing is regaining focus from the MSM. What Cindy is doing is admirable and to be applauded but it won't do much more than bring attention to the fact that we are involved in an illegal war (which I think is common knowledge) and the media attention on Cindy takes away the spotlight from the tangible crime of premeditated treason. Heads can and possibly, will roll from the Plame outing, Rove, Libby are implicated directly, with Bolton, Cheney and Bush in the wings. No one will be impeached because Cindy was arrested for sitting on a curb.

text: Hi Gang, I know it's been awhile since I have been here. Moving, kids and frankly, no problems with the truck so... Anyways, got a few questions about my 2003 GMC sierra ext cab with 4.8, 2wd. 1. Does anyone know how to replace the blower motor resistor on this truck? 2. I have manual windows and the drivers side is now acting up. I can roll it down but it is a bear to roll up and sometimes gets stuck and I need to wiggle the window and go back and forth to get it up. I have the new regulator, replaced the pass side one last year. My question, is there a way to make the window work easier? I greased the snot of the pass side and it is still difficult to roll up. 3. My truck is spitting p0449 code. Any help,hints, tips? I had heard that solenoids from other year trucks work and sre cheaper, is this true? Thanks forthe help Jon
