New Congressional Bills Take Aim at Endangered Species Act
Two new bills, one in the Senate and the other in the House, have been introduced that seek to repeal the protected designation of the the gray wolf. Similar bills were introduced in the previous Congress, but these are the first since the fall election. The Seattle Times has a write up on the bills and how they may effect the Endangered Species Act.
In the House, the bill's chief sponsor is Montana Republican Denny Rehberg, who says management of gray wolves should be left to the states. He introduced his bill last week. It has 15 co-sponsors. "I heard from thousands of Montanans, and folks get it," said Rehberg, a rancher from Billings. "They know that states are better at managing our own local wildlife than the federal government thousands of miles away. Unless there's a darn good reason — and there's not — the federal government has no business getting involved."

About time they are spitting
Submitted by Chuck-n-Alaska on Mon, 2011-02-07 11:59.
About time they are spitting into the wind though congress will never admit the ESA has morphed into a farce. It may have started good but now it is nothing but a tool for the wolf worshippers and tree huggers. The whole act should be scraped.
I wholeheartedly agree with
Submitted by Ca_Vermonster on Tue, 2011-02-08 16:23.
I wholeheartedly agree with that. As you said, it has "morphed" (good choice of words) into nothing but a legal too for the animal rights people to use.
Actually, even people who want nothing to do with animals use it to their advantage. We have had many, many cases of development being stopped because f the gnatcathcer, or the checkerspot butterfly, or my favorite, the fairy shrimp.
They need to let the states take control of the animals within their borders. It's not like 150 years ago when we almost shot whole species to extinction. We have educated ourselves as a hunting community on how to properly balance the species.
I'll follow this with interest!
This is good news, hopefully
Submitted by numbnutz on Mon, 2011-02-07 11:58.
This is good news, hopefully its the first step in getting the wolfs delisted and finaly states will have the say on how to manage these animals, I hope it doesnt hit any road blocks and the feds pass these bills. I'm sure it will be a long drawn out process like all law passing is but one can hope right.

Here Is My ResponseMature
Dear You,
Hey, do you remember me?
I'm that girl who was your friend once upon a time.
That girl who meant near to nothing at all to you.
That girl who you were kind to and who you made think she was actually somebody close to you.
That girl who's heart you crushed daily.
That girl who didn't mind.
Do you remember me?
Yeah, you do? Just a bit? That smart, frizzy, blonde girl with the glasses?
Look at me now.
Look at the girl you crushed now and look where I got to compared to you.
I'm not trying to say that I have an amazing future planned out or anything like that but I heard you were getting bullied.
So look at me, the girl who you and Al pushed down and made fun of.
The girl Daylan was always too good for.
I don't get bullied.
I go to a grammar school. What about you? Kingsbrook? Road? I pity you.
Look at me, the girl who learnt from the best.
The girl who learnt from you.
Look at the way I've treated people.
Are you proud of me for the girl I've become?
All because of you.
Look at me now.
My life is brilliant.
I have amazing friends.
The perfect guy in my life.
My grades aren't perfect but I bet you a house that they are better than yours.
Look at me.
The girl you never wanted.
With no love,
Miss Knight.

Bien Soigné
The name of this restaurant, which is situated in the very heart of Antwerp, means as much as "˜taken well of' in French. They have been in business for only a few months now, but Bien Soigné is fast becoming a must for the locals. Its interior is sleek -think "˜contemporary bistro style'- their staff is very friendly and the food is to die for. At least, if you like Belgian and French cuisine with a Mediterranean twist. Do check their suggestions board as well, which includes several fish dishes made with the catch of the day. So rest assured, you will be "˜bien soigné' !

You will often hear fans say "Orient don't do things the easy way" and, with nine games to go, the route to automatic promotion is looking formidable – though far from impossible.
Ordinarily the changing room is awash with noise after a game but you could hear a pin drop on Saturday following the 1-0 defeat to Brentford. It was an unwelcome task having to pop in to fetch Scott Cuthbert and Kevin Lisbie to talk to the press as Ada, the kit man, swept up the discarded sock tape and mud.
The defeat hurt everyone at the club as there had been so much anticipation and build-up to the game. The last time before Saturday we had had a sellout crowd was against Arsenal in the FA Cup in 2011 and accommodating both a full house and the TV cameras takes a lot of preparation.
The game was live on Sky and the trucks rolled in on Thursday morning to begin constructing a makeshift studio and gantries, plus carefully laying mile after mile of cabling. The cameras were also at the training ground filming preview interviews with the gaffer, Russell Slade, and striker David Mooney.
Despite the media attention, the training ground was relaxed as usual and the players were in good spirits as they had received their voting forms for the PFA divisional team of the year. The voting can get quite political, with a few shouts of "Nah, don't vote for him", or "Stick him down, he's a good lad". In reality, though, the voting is a serious matter for the lads, as was the case when they were picking their World XIs, which produced one of my favourite moments of the season. "Did you see his goal in the Coppa Italia last night?" one of the boys asked Jamie Jones, our goalkeeper, as they were filling out their forms. Jamie responded: "Nah, I don't watch Spanish football."
The bigger games require careful planning and the ticket office staff were working hard all week, as were the hospitality team. Steve, the stadium manager, was busy keeping an eye on Sky and meeting the senior police officers on duty at the game to make sure plans were in place for everything to go safely. There was a lot to consider, given the scale of the game and the fact it was a London derby with a large away following – several hundred of whom would be arriving by boat along the Thames.
In the end the only police matter was a 15-year-old Bees fan who had to be picked up by his mum after he was cautioned for stealing, having decided to take home a bit of one of our seats.
The day itself went largely to plan off the field. The press areas were bulging, but organised, the 240 hospitality guests were all fed and watered on time, and the near 8,500 supporters safely shown to their seats for a feisty derby that, on reflection, we can feel aggrieved to have come away from empty-handed.
I felt about two stone lighter afterwards, as the only technical hitch was that the lift decided to pack up midway through the day. That meant too many trips to and from the fifth-floor press gantry by stairs for my liking, though it was the Sky staff who suffered most as they lugged their cameras and equipment down five flights of stairs after the game.Reuse content

LONDON (AFP) – Paul Lambert has been sacked as manager of Aston Villa after a run of 10 games without a win took them into the Premier League relegation zone, the club announced on Wednesday.
"Aston Villa Football Club has parted company this evening with manager Paul Lambert," Villa announced on their website.
"First-team coach Scott Marshall and goalkeeping coach Andy Marshall will continue to prepare the squad for Sunday's FA Cup tie with Leicester City at Villa Park."
Lambert, 45, took over at Villa Park in 2012 and led the Midlands club to 15th-place finishes in his first two seasons, but the former Scotland midfielder had come under pressure from fans following a poor run of recent form.
Villa recently went 11 hours without scoring a Premier League goal and supporters unveiled a banner calling for Lambert to leave during their 2-0 loss at fellow strugglers Hull City on Tuesday.

The song and the group started gaining popularity this winter after a fan-cam of Hani during a performance went viral. Since then, the girls have been riding a wave of success, winning on weekly music shows for the first time since their 2012 debut. When EXID was recently commuting to Music Bank to scoop up another trophy, Hani could be seen wearing an NBA Miami Heat Parka ($225) from the 2014 F/W collection.

The Fair Representation Act is a model congressional bill that would repeal the 1967 single-winner district mandate and replace it with a new national standard for all fifty states. It includes two essential changes that, when enacted together, create a fairer and more representative way of electing Members of the House of Representatives. Those changes are the use of ranked choice voting in a smaller number of multi-winner districts, each of which sends at least three Members to Congress. Additionally, under the Fair Representation Act, states that draw districts must do so using state-run independent redistricting commissions made up of ordinary citizens and operating in a transparent fashion.
Ranked choice voting is an election method used in communities across the United States for elections with more than two candidates. Ranked choice voting gives every voter a powerful voice in an election. Instead of just picking one candidate, the voter gets to rank candidates in order of choice – first choice, second choice and so on. It maximizes the number of votes that help elect representatives.
When electing more than one Member in a multi-winner district, a majority of voters can always elect a majority of seats, but smaller groups can elect someone too. That means many more voters will help elect their first choice, and almost everyone will be able to elect a candidate they like, who will go into Congress with their interests and values in mind.
To maximize the power of voters, each multi-winner district will send at least three Members to Congress. To keep elections simple and local, no district will elect more than five Members. States that only send five or fewer Members will not have to draw any districts at all.
States that draw multi-winner districts will do so by establishing a citizen-run, independent redistricting commission. The commissions will be insulated from the political process, and will include the public directly at every step of their deliberation. Anyone will be able to draw district maps and submit them for consideration, and everyone can see what maps are being considered and participate in public hearings.
It's time to break up single-party monopolies on representation in our cities, suburbs, and rural communities. It's time for voters to have a strong voice in the political process. It's time for fair representation.
For a detailed description of each of the Act's three components, see our explanatory memo.

This week's picture is from Mesa Verde National Park in Colorado — it's of Cliff Palace, the largest cliff dwelling in North America:
Cliff Palace is about 288 feet (88 meters) long, and contains about 150 rooms — although only about 30 of them had hearths, so it likely was home to just a few dozen families. Tree ring dating of timbers in the ruins indicate that construction of Cliff Palace took place between about 1190 and 1260 AD, with most of the construction done over a twenty year period. Cliff Palace was then abandoned by 1300, as part of the mass migration of the Ancestral Puebloan population out of this area to lower areas — as I've discussed a bit previously.
Cliff Palace was officially re-discovered in 1888 by Richard Wetherill and Charles Mason — two local cowboys searching for lost cattle. Still, other Mesa Verde dwellings were known at the time from prospectors' tales, so Cliff Palace and the others may well have been visited a number of times in the preceding centuries. But once word got into the press about the wealth of ruins in the area, it became a hot tourist spot — and true to form, these tourists didn't want to go home empty-handed. During the next two decades, the ruins were severely damaged by souvenir-hungry visitors, many of whom felt no qualms about pulling out timbers for firewood, or knocking holes in walls to get at interior rooms.
The pressure to preserve the Mesa Verde ruins for posterity grew until finally, in 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt and the U.S. Congress established Mesa Verde National Park "to preserve the works of man." This made Mesa Verde the first park of its kind in the world.
You can still get souvenirs when you visit, but they'll be of considerably more recent vintage — and you can't visit the cliff dwellings without a Ranger escorting you. But there's plenty to see (you could easily spend days exploring and not take everything in), and you'll definitely go home with a bit more respect for what Mesa Verde's inhabitants were able to accomplish in a less-than-verdant corner of the world.

Slim short-sleeve embroidered oxford shirt
Slim short-sleeve embroidered oxford shirt is rated out of 5 by 4.
Rated 5 out of 5 by CurlyBoss from Great fit, looks fly This shirt fits well, true to size and is very comfortable. Wears well in both pants and shorts and is comfortable in both warm and cool weather. Very satisfied
Date published: 2016-04-27
Rated 4 out of 5 by JP18 from Surprisingly soft I LOVE these shirts. Bought both - the lobsters and the anchors. It says a lot when my girlfriend openly likes my clothing choices, too. Classic colour options and pretty hilarious patterns. Just quirky enough for me to enjoy, just subtle enough that I will definitely wear them at the office (I like to push the envelope). Shoulders and torso on the L fit perfectly, but I found the sleeves tighter than the long sleeve J.Crew shirts I have (I'm 5'8 and 220 lbs). A bit too tight in the sleeves, in fact - some friends have deemed them my muscle shirts, and I'm by no means muscular. Would suggest adding more room to the sleeves for the L, XL, XL+ sizes down the road. Then again, I stand to shed a few lbs anyway!

Rated 5 out of 5 by easywear1 from good product Love the materials and quality of this JCrew's products. Its perfect for all year round.
Date published: 2017-05-05
Rated 3 out of 5 by Samm from Nice shirt, but could be better I purchased this hoping to wear it tucked out with the 5-inch shorts. However, I think it is a little too long to be worn tucked out, especially with preppy fit shorts. I am a short guy though. If you are average height or tall, this would probably work well.

After some secrecy from Brewers manager Ron Roenicke on Monday night as to who would take Shaun Marcum's vacated start Tuesday, it appears, according to his high school baseball team's Twitter account, that big-time prospect Tyler Thornburg will take the hill for Milwaukee against the Blue Jays. "Tyler Thornburg, Riverwood '07, 1st major league start Tues. June 19 pitching for the Brewers v Toronto Blue Jays,"the tweet said. "Congrats Tyler! Marcum will miss the start due to elbow tightness, and Roenicke said Monday night that he didn't want to lean on his already-overworked bullpen for a by-committee game. And though Thornburg was supposed to pitch in the Southern League All-Star Game on Tuesday night, it seems he'll be making his major league debut instead. The 6-foot, 190-pound 23-year-old has been one of the Brewers' best prospects this season with an 8-1 record and 3.00 ERA in 13 starts at Double-A Huntsville. Thornburg was a third-round pick in the 2010 draft and has 71 strikeouts in 75 innings pitched this season. Follow Ryan Kartje on Twitter.

Name: engageBRIC
City: London
Website: http://www.engagebric.com/
engageBRIC aims to give businesses, students and entrepreneurs an insight into how to do business in Brazil, China and India by running tailored programmes in-country. We offer two distinct programmes: one for companies which introduces them to like-minded businesses in an emerging economy, and a student programme which has a more holistic approach of introducing students to a different business environment. Each has been devised with the assistance of peers at multinational companies and lecturers at universities.
As a startup, we have tried to limit our outgoings by utilising our existing skills. My business partner has an IT background and built our website, and I've used my publishing experience to write and edit all of our content whether it is online, in our blogs or in our marketing literature. We have also used skill swaps and called in favours from friends when dealing with specialist areas. For example, our accounts are being managed by a retired professional in exchange for helping edit their memoirs!
On our initial fact-finding mission to India, again we made the most of our budget by staying with friends and relatives, eating and travelling as locals do, and arranging business meetings in advance of our trip, including a constructive meeting with the UKTI in Bangalore. The logistics of the travel and the intensive planning were great preparation for running our programmes, as our main USP is that we arrange everything in-country for businesses and students so that they can concentrate solely on doing business.

agentmel ,
I've got the Integrated Threat Focused Training course coming to Starke, Fla. in April. The dates are being finalized in the next two weeks.
This course will immediately follow the preceding two days of my training a local police dept in the area on Thursday and Friday in these same skills.
For after action reviews from previous students who have taken the training here in Az as well as our on the road program in Pennsylvania and Tennessee, [ soon to also include Louisiana and Ohio ] follow this link:
If you are interested in obtaining skills which will give you the ability to make hits as soon as the gun clears leather all the way out to full extension, the ability to be threat focused and make hits out to 10 yrds without worrying about waiting to find any type of sight picture, the ability to make hits while scrambling out of the kill zone, moving laterally to the threat, shooting below your line of sight, all one handed,
shoot me a pm here or email me at firstname.lastname@example.com and I'll get you up to speed on the same skills you read in the AAR's from that link given above.
Rapid target acquisition requires several skills to be properly proficient. Threat ID, draw stroke, one handed shooting skills from just above the hip as the gun clears the holster and the muzzle is brought to bear on the threat, then being able to continue to fire throughout that draw stroke and do so while moving, use of body indexing, as well as being able to switch gears in mid stream and use any of the skills imparted in the Integrated Threat Focused classes as the situation dictates. We'll also show you how to get hits on two or three threats in the time most will take on one threat with another skill from 5-10 feet from the hip.

I took a 2 day, advanced pistol fighting class last month instructed by Innovative Tactical Concepts. www.right2defend.com
Excellent course! I can truly say that I never saw my sights once in the two days, and it was all one handed shooting. This is the type of training that everyone should take, to get the true feeling of what a defensive situation will feel like.

First of all I want to address what Roger said regarding getting into ranges I would say that the major issue with converting instructors to reality based training has a lot to do with ego and business. A lot of people dont like hearing the fact that what they know isnt really applicable in real life situations. This is true for both the martial arts and firearms community. Some people want to hold on to what they know instead of learning what they NEED to know! A lot of firearms instructors are going to teach what they are COMFORTABLE teaching, which is not necessarily WHAT they need to be teaching.The problem is finding a range that will allow for the advanced training that we offer. If you are not just teaching "stand and deliver with sighted fire" courses you are not welcome on most of the Florida ranges. As soon as you get into reality based, combat proven concepts of dynamic movement, and threat focused skills, the Range curmundgeons want you to water down the curriculum to fit in with their idea of necessary NRA based firearms training. This type of training has proven very ineffective inside of force on force.
The problem is, that they are doing people a disservice by teaching them things that will not work in a life threatening situation if the training is for self-defense purposes. That is, if they are teaching you things for self-defense purposes. Another issue may be that they havent train realistically themselves in order to realize that what they are teaching doesnt apply to most CIVILIAN self-defense situations. Most of the NRA programs I have seen are good for fundamentals. As an NRA instructor I believe in most of the things that they teach in their curriculum FOR BEGINNERS. However, a lot of what is taught is NOT what is going to keep you alive in a real life confrontation!
Lets face it, a lot of people who are teaching firearms come from a LE or military background. Their rules of engagement and tools readily available are different than what civilians have. They have backup a lot of the time, they have cover or concealment (their car), they have a rifle or shotgun nearby, body armor, and they know going into most situations they are going to encounter trouble. How many civilians have most of that readily available? It is because of these elements that the tactics they are taught work. Now, try transferring a lot of the information over to civilian self-defense and it can get you seriously injured or killed. What I DID NOT say was that everything they know is crap. There are A LOT of things that you can learn and apply to civilian conflicts, but KNOWING what those are can mean the difference between life and death.
Now, notice what Roger said, that the concepts are combat proven. By that I am sure he means CIVILIAN COMBAT PROVEN and not LE or military combat proven. There is a BIG difference in what reality based instructors are teaching as opposed to traditional firearms schools. Not saying that they dont have anything to offer, just that they are well, old school. It is important to realize that just because something has been taught a certain way for x years does not mean that it works in all or most situations. And, for those of you who are die hard traditional schoolists, you may be in for a rude awakening if you take the time to attend a reality based school. The worst case scenario would be that you found yourself in a life threatening situation and got seriously injured or killed because you put all of your faith in what the traditional schools teach is going to save your life.
Some firearms instructors say that we (reality based trainers) are just creating something new. Im not saying that some are not. However, coming from a martial arts background, it is the difference between standing still and throwing punches in the air and implementing all that punch into a fight in a realistic manner. You wouldnt stand still and throw a punch in a fight. You would move and probably move fast circling around the opponent. WHY is gunfighting any different? ITS NOT!!! Some label reality based training as a fad. There may be some truth in that for some instructors. Honestly, some instructors teach new things just to be teaching them. And for that I apologize. Just because something is new does not make it good or bad. So, just because someone says it is or isnt good, DO NOT TAKE IT AS THE GOSPEL. TRAIN ON IT AND FIND OUT WHY IT WORKS OR DOEST WORK!
Two handed shooting while moving laterally or straight forward or backwards is what is most commonly taught. This is referred to Inside the box training. It does not mean it is good or bad, it just has LIMITATIONS! SERIOUS limitations. The only limits there are in a FIGHT is what YOU LIMIT yourself to and what you have trained to do.
We do not promote sighted or point shooting. One of the issues is that if the eyes can only focus on one point, and we are taught that there are three points; rear sight, front sight, and the threat, and you focus on the front sight Can you truly take the entire picture of the confrontation and what the threat may be doing? I believe an advantage of point shooting is that you are focusing more on the threat and surviving than shooting and ignoring whatever else may be taking place. By focusing on the front sight, in essence you are creating tunnel vision if you do not already have it.
As Linda put it, our courses are based upon one handed shooting. WHY? Because THATS REALISTIC CIVILIVAN COMBAT! Sure, everyone needs to understand the basics and be able to perform the basics, but in REAL LIFE, things are significantly different. We dont tell people to or not to use their sights. Use what works! We are not a shooting school. We are a FIGHTING school and that means much of the time you are not going to see your sights because it isnt possible.
Sighted shooting is a basic fundamental in shooting accurately. Yes, at long distances sighted shooting is going to be more accurate than point shooting. BUT at civilian combat distances do you REALLY need to see and use your sights to hit your target? If so, then we are all in trouble!
I agree with Brownie that you should be able to make shots as soon as your gun clears the holster. I didnt use leather because I use Kydex. Sorry Brownie. And, the combat drawstroke that is commonly taught by most firearms instructors is only ONE WAY to get your gun on target ASAP. There are times when the rock and lock method is a very bad thing to do.
As far as keeping both eyes open, how many people here drive with one eye closed? Why should shooting be any different?This is about as true as it gets! You cannot say if this happens I will do this. Your SITUATION will dictate what you should do."Situations dictate strategy, strategy dictate tactics, and tactics dictate techniques.....techniques should not dictate anything.

Speaking as a member of the Military, someone who has trained law enforcement and someone who was once a civilian and who functions as a civilian a great deal of the time, I find the attempt to categorize interpersonal combat under the headings of Military, law enforcement or civilian absurd. Interpersonal combat is interpersonal combat, regardless of the circumstances that led to the conflict.
Once the situation deteriorates to the point where the application of deadly force is prescribed, the skill sets required to bring the conflict to a successful resolution are no different. If a technique is effective at resolving a deadly force confrontation at five feet it will work for you regardless of whether you are a police officer in an alley or a Special Forces operator in Iraq or a civilian at the ATM.
Very nice post Brian!
Civilian gun fight statistics are virtually nonexistant. Therefore it is tough to show "civilian combat proven" skill sets. What we can do is look at "the context of the fight" and find situations that are most likely to happen to civilian protectors.
We have found the "lone LEO's" and their "most likely" situations are very close to what civilians deal with. Up close and personal fights that occur from behind in the reactionary curve. The BG's use deception to get close and attack when the opportunity presents itself.
With this knowledge we can use a lot of dash camera footage to understand the human physiological response to a surprise attack.....and the quality of the response and the ability to access the prior training. With this, it is easy to see the need for more real world concepts. These concepts can come from a lot of different sources, just as long as the context of the fight is similar.
Roger Phillips Owner of Fight Focused Concepts, formerly know as Sweatnbullets
I beg to differ. First of all, soldiers walk around with a long gun and normally in numbers with others who are trained. How many soldiers are walking around Iraq by themselves? More than likely their weapon is in their hands and ready to respond and again, in numbers. Two soldiers responding to a situation is better than one! Much of the time LEOs approach situations with their hands on their gun which gives them an advantage and they dont have to clear and draw. This alone can cut possibly ½ second off the draw time. And again, much of the time soldiers and LEOs are wearing body armor. So, using the Weaver or Isosceles stance to utilize the body armor is a wise idea. However, being a large target in a conflict involving more guns than the one you are holding from a civilian aspect is not so wise of an idea. Not to mention, if the long gun stops working, soldiers often have a backup weapon which is normally easily accessible. Or, their buddy can cover them.I find the attempt to categorize interpersonal combat under the headings of Military, law enforcement or civilian absurd. Interpersonal combat is interpersonal combat, regardless of the circumstances that led to the conflict.
Most of the tactics used by military and LE are not based upon unarmed combatives but rather the gun is the solution. This is actually true for most firearms training. Yes, there are some elements that are similar, but again, there are significant differences. I do not agree with the fact that civilian, LE, or military interpersonal combatives are the same. Again, because of the resources available to LE and military in many situations that is not available in civilian conflicts.
I agree Roger there are some similar aspects of the fight that we can learn from. Now, regarding a surprise attack, how many officers actually have GOOD unarmed combative skills? Therefore, their responses are going to be similar to those of an untrained civilian in unarmed combatives. Does that mean they are good responses? Absolutely not! Not forgetting that going straight for your gun is NOT the answer in LE encounters and civilian encounters. But, much of the time that is what people do (LEO or civilian) when they should be doing something else.
Of course we are behind the curve as LEOs are. That is why natural reactions and even some learned reactions are not necessarily good responses. Natural responses and some learned responses can place you in great danger. However, if you train, train, train, then your response is going to be far different than what the average persons is going to be! I think that a lot of police footage shows that even those who have received training but not continued to train on a regular basis resort to survival mode which is not good! Why do they do this because they are not confident in their skills so their body overrides their brain and does what it naturally does.
My natural response after many years of training is much different than any footage I have seen by LE or most civilians. Before my years of training, my response would have been the same as what most people would be. It all goes back to training and how the tactics are developed and that is, from an unarmed combative perspective or a gun is the solution perspective.

Brian, earlier you said:
With a few thousand hours of force on force training (in military, law enforcement and civilian formats) and having had the opprtunity to put much of the training I have received to use in the real world, I have yet to see a viable method of successfully employing a firearm for the military or law enforcment that would result in a civilian being seriously injured or killed. Those techniques that fell apart were bad techniques and were not applicable to anyone.
To address your points:As I already stated, all of the firearms training I have received focused on me eliminating the threat unilaterally. Does the military train collectively? Sure, once individuals demonstrate proficiency at the individual level.First of all, soldiers walk around with a long gun and normally in numbers with others who are trained. How many soldiers are walking around Iraq by themselves? More than likely their weapon is in their hands and ready to respond and again, in numbers. Two soldiers responding to a situation is better than one!
With regard to long guns. Certainly, a disproportionate amount of military firearms training focuses on employing the long gun vs. the handgun. Long guns are the primary weapon system of the military. Having a long gun in both hands is preferrable if one anticipates having to use it. I suspect the civilian who retrieves a long gun to investigate a "bump in the night" will be carrying it in both hands just as the police officer does when he retrieves his shotgun from the patrol car.I have never participated in nor conducted a training exercise where individuals were allowed "prepare" to draw their weapon by placing their hand on their holstered weapon. I have never heard of it, though I suspect someone, somewhere is doing it. But that would be the exception rather than the rule.Much of the time LEO's approach situations with their hands on their gun which gives them an advantage and they don't have to clear and draw. This alone can cut possibly ½ second off the draw time.
Is placing your hand on your weapon in anticipation of a potential conflict practiced in the real world? Sure, it is a valid technique. But it is not one limited to law enforcement. A number of civilians who carry in their pocket like to do so, at east in part, because it innocuously allows them to place their hand on their weapon.Both the Weaver and Isosceles are valid methods for engaging a threat when time and circumstances allow you to get two hands on your weapon. I am not sure if you are sugesting that their validity is tied to body armor but both stances pre-date the wide spread adoption of body armor by law enforcement and the Military.And again, much of the time soldiers and LEO's are wearing body armor. So, using the Weaver or Isosceles stance to utilize the body armor is a wise idea.I am not sure that it is completely wrong for a firearms training course to focus on employing the firearm. But the vast majority of the training programs I have attended always addressed at least some method of incorporating unarmed techniques. Those that did not specifically focused on improving individual speed and accuracy with a firearm and represented themselves as such.Most of the tactics used by military and LE are not based upon unarmed combatives but rather the gun is the solution.
I would add that I do a lot more unarmed combatives training in the military than I do firearms training.I am not sure what additional resources you are referring to. Perhaps you will be good enough to enlighten me as to the different resources I would successfully employ as a Soldier were I forced to engage a threat with my holstered handgun at a distance of five feet and contrast that with an LEO and a civilian under the same conditions. I contend the skill sets required and their application does not differ.I do not agree with the fact that civilian, LE, or military interpersonal combatives are the same. Again, because of the resources available to LE and military in many situations that is not available in civilian conflicts.
My vision is usually a little blurry anyway at distances, so I focus on the front sight for the most part.

Virgin Atlantic Cargo maintains more than 350 forwarding destinations worldwide, but for the past 12 months, few have been as important as the 11 routes developed in the United States over the last few years, said John Lloyd, the carrier's senior vice president, cargo. The most recent – 16 tonnes of A330 belly space between Detroit and Heathrow, launched in June – may have completed the puzzle that maximizes cargo connections to most key regions of the American market.
Virgin Atlantic now offers cargo service to Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, New York, Orlando, San Francisco and Washington, D.C. During the West Coast port slowdown earlier this year, these connections paid off handsomely with 2,400 tonnes of cargo moved through Virgin Atlantic's connection in Dubai in the first half of 2015, nearly a third more than the previous first half.
This year has been generally a good one for the British carrier, but as 2016 nears, Virgin Atlantic Cargo is preparing for a major expansion of its joint venture with Delta Air Lines, which involves an extensive overhaul of its IT system. With so much attention being paid to cargo in recent months, Air Cargo World spoke with Lloyd to discuss the IT system overhaul, the coming JV expansion and the carrier's plans to keep 2015's momentum going.
How has the Virgin Atlantic Cargo expansion into the North American market progressed?
The trans-Atlantic market has been our biggest focus since Virgin Atlantic first commenced operations to New York over 30 years ago. In the last 12 months, Atlanta and Detroit joined our network, and we've gained strong support on both routes. We serve Atlanta from both London and Manchester, while Detroit gives us a stronger presence in the U.S. Midwest market alongside Chicago, which is a really good cargo route for us. In addition, we added frequencies on Atlanta, New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. The trans-Atlantic market is obviously highly competitive, but we have a smooth trans-shipment operation in London to connect with other parts of our network, such as India and South Africa, and deliveries to more than 50 cities across Europe with our road feeder network. We have no immediate plans for other new routes.
How will the Virgin Atlantic/Delta JV expansion succeed where others have had mixed success?
Notably, our joint venture includes antitrust immunity between the U.S. and the U.K., so we're able to synergize our schedules in a joint program to give our customers the best possible choice of destinations and frequencies. Another big advantage is that Delta has experience of being part of another successful cargo joint venture, so they've already been though the big learning curve of what works and what doesn't. I think some other previous alliances in the industry haven't realized their potential from a cargo perspective because they haven't maybe had the right level of trust and commitment from both parties to put the necessary building blocks in place. That means they haven't added sufficient value for customers or brought anything new to the table. What we are doing with Delta demonstrates that both airlines are determined to make this work.
What problems do you hope to solve with the IT system overhaul?
It's important that our systems can talk to each other because we want to be able to offer our customers a seamless way of doing business with us. It is a big project, and a lot more complex than linking passenger booking systems. It takes time, but our customers understand that we won't go live with anything that is not fully tested and proven. The IT interface is important, but so is the physical cargo handling process, and that's why we've been busy co-locating our handling operations [with Delta's] in Boston, Las Vegas, Miami, Newark, New York JKF, Orlando and Washington. It makes it easier for customers delivering or collecting their cargo and is the most efficient way to connect our capacity offering. We're now working on co-location in Chicago and San Francisco, as well as in London.
How do you explain the 30 percent jump in ex-Dubai traffic?
We're very pleased to be performing well in Dubai because it is such a competitive market. Obviously our growth is down to a variety of factors, from the effects of the U.S. West Coast port disruption and our new destinations in the U.S. to a more proactive sales approach. Our increased capacity to the U.S. has made a big difference and was particularly important during this period as customers looked for alternative routes into the U.S. to avoid the port disruptions there. We have also seen improvements in our service levels this year after they were impacted towards the end of 2014, during our ground handler's relocation in Dubai.
Do you have any predictions for this peak season and cargo traffic for early 2016?
Over the last four to five years, our business has been very stable and consistent, despite the volatile market conditions, and our load factors remain well above the industry average. We don't expect a big increase in traffic as a result of the peak season. I am sure most people would agree that the air cargo market overall is much more difficult to predict these days because so many different factors can impact the movement of goods, but I am confident we can maintain our share of the market.Like This Post

Hello World!
Do you know this situation: You want to start with something and prepare for days. Then you want to start but then you find something else and you're like "hey, this is an even better approach - I'll do it that way"... And after many weeks or month you find yourself just preparing but never starting.
Currently I have this situation with my comics that I'm planning to release as soon as possible. The last days I used all my free time (which is not much) to play with V-Ray and 3DS Max. There are awesome results when it comes to dynamics - especially fluids and particles but they are so expensive and need so much time...
Maybe I'm just too perfectionistic? Anyways – my homepage is technically done but I want to release some sneak previews of my comics when I release the homepage to get you some exclusive content .
There are also more girls on the start, so stay tuned
All the best to you and have a nice day!
Ps.: I'm also thinking of getting a deviantArt premium account - is it worth the money?

*** EXTRACT FROM THE REPORTER, Tuesday, 29 October 2013 ***
Local MPs Donna Faragher and Alyssa Hayden joined City of Swan Mayor in recognising the latest funding boost for foreshore renovation by State Government. Almost $100,000 has been awarded to the City through the Riverbank Grants program for foreshore rehabilitation works at Beverley Terrace Foreshore and Loder Way in South Guildford and Lilac Hill. "Protecting our rivers through foreshore rehabilitation projects is important", Mrs Faragher said. Mrs Hayden was delighted funding was awarded for essential works at Beverley Terrace - Loder Way. "This grant, to be matched by the City, will help ensure our river and foreshore is protected," she said.

The trees, the trees
There can't be many a London parent who hasn't schlepped down to Syon Park in Brentford at one time or other. For while Syon is most notably the home of the Duke of Northumberland, it's also home to three child-centric attractions: The Aquatic Experience (lots of poisonous or just plain gross creatures); The Butterfly House (hundreds of whopping big butterflies that land on you); and Snakes and Ladders Indoor Adventure Playground (universally loathed by parents but, unfortunately, adored by our offspring).
Sadly, with kids in tow, it's easy to spend an afternoon at Syon without stepping foot in the house or its gardens. But this winter there's no excuse as the spotlight - well, over 1,000 of them actually - is on the duke's back garden ... and boy, what a garden it is. For each night, from now until December 3, stunning illuminations will transform Syon's arboretum into an enchanted woodland. An hour-long walk weaves its way past the castellated facade of Syon House and its great conservatory and into the forest itself, where weeping willows glow like fire, chestnut trees strive towards the stars, Douglas firs reveal hidden faces and a tree that smells of candyfloss marks the entrance to a frosty world that's more Narnia than Brentford.

Have a ghastly day out
Children love foul facts and gruesome stories, and English Heritage is the latest organisation to catch on to the idea that drawing attention to grisly goings-on from the past is a good way to get young minds hooked into history.
Visitors to Dover Castle in Kent can take a disgusting journey back in time, wander down secret tunnels and creep along chilly battlements armed with a new interactive guide. The Ghastly Book of Dover Castle (£3.99, suitable for eight to 12-year-olds) features facts from the castle's almost 1,000-year history that you don't usually find in traditional guide books.
You can discover more about everything from medieval toilet habits and 13th-century ammunition (dung, dead animals and much, much worse were used in catapult machines) to second world war recipes (squirrel tail soup).
Other colourful guides in the pipeline include The Ghastly Books of Stonehenge (published early 2007), Hadrian's Wall, Kenilworth Castle, Battle Abbey, Carisbrooke Castle and Osborne House.

Go birdwatching on the M40
The M40 is rarely suggested as one of Britain's great birdwatching sites, but the stretch between High Wycombe in Bucks and Watlington in Oxfordshire is the easiest place to see England's most spectacular bird: the red kite.
Last weekend, inside 15 minutes, our family was thrilled by the sight, as we sped from the West Midlands to London, of 10 of these magnificent raptors circling over the carriageway. You don't need binoculars or reference books: your kids will be able to recognise them from their distinctive forked tails, and their nearly 2m wingspan.
Red kites were driven to the brink of extinction in the 1880s, but a reintroduction programme between 1989 and 1994 has seen them flourish in the Chilterns - there are now around 250 breeding pairs in the area.
Now, only a fool would suggest you drive the M40 for the sole purpose of seeing kites, but combine it with a day trip - to Oxford, perhaps - and you can fit in some birdwatching without needing a hide or Thermos.

Make seeds into a sci-fi cartoon
"The Nasty Urchins put up a brave defence, as they marched forward. Packed shoulder to shoulder they waded across the remains of the lawn, crawling over everything in their path to get to the Impatiens frontline ... "
This is an extract from The Pod Beasts, a science-fiction cartoon my son and I made based on our experiments in the back garden with seeds and a magnifying glass. Every year we relish in the seed-gathering ritual. We cut down the dead plants and, before chucking them on the compost, pour the seeds into an empty film canister, label them, and put them in the shed over winter. This year, however, we decided to have a really good look at those seeds through our magnifying glasses. Close up, these brown wrinkly dots take on a whole new persona: suddenly you see their intricate design and they look almost alien-like, which is where the sci-fi cartoon comes in.
It began with character development. Some of the seeds had knarled "wicked old man" faces, so they became the Nasty Urchins (Nasturtiums). And others had a smooth, younger-looking texture, now known as the Imps (Impatiens). Using a photo we had taken through the magnifying glass, we drew the seeds with different expressions: happy, angry, determined, then running, crawling and so on. This gave us a bit of time to develop the plot. Then, taking a sheet of paper, my son drew a box for the title, another next to it for the first scene, and before long we had a 23-scene cartoon ...

Alisa DiSalvo's Small Business Management researched and created a business expansion plan for Dalla Terra Pasta, LLC located in Appleton, Wisconsin. Cyndi Connolly is the owner. Dalla Terra makes fresh pastas on a daily basis, which are always sold within two weeks. Dalla Terra focuses on using local produce and grains whenever possible.
The business plan focused on strategic partnerships, markets, and relevant SWOT for entering the Milwaukee, Wisconsin marketplace. In place of a traditional financial plan, students provided grant options, mileage cost for locations for expansion, and mentorship opportunities for a small business entering a new market. A great deal of research was involved in this project.
Students were excited to work with a true small startup business in the Appleton area. DiSalvo noted that "Being able to identify with the importance of entrepreneurship in the immediate community – and knowing the work being created is going to be used to assist Dalla Terra Pasta – created a sense of pride in the work developed." The students were excited about sharing their final product, which they presented to Connolly on the last day of class.
When the students were finished presenting, Connolly reacted stating "This is great!" She was impressed with their unique ideas, especially the ideas regarding obtaining grants. She said that it was nice to hear new perspectives. Connolly is looking forward to going over the plan again. She was impressed by the depth of the project, and the detail. This project will serve as a model for future Small Business Management courses.

Face Skye
"Face it Skye. Skye Malizia, wake up and face what you've done.
"Because of your selfishness, you have damaged the world. You gave yourself a code to follow and you broke it, now look what's happened. You abandonned it when you needed it most, all to do what? Die, that's what. And here you are, lying before me, already accepting your fate. Have you not the courage to question me? Do you believe me to be omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient to every aspect of your life?
"I'll entertain the idea. Perhaps I am the narrator of your life, Skye. Perhaps I know every detail, everything you are thinking, every prayer you've made. As far as you are concerned, I am your God.
"You are a plague. Ever since infancy you have caused pain. You were the product of an affair, and you killed your mother with your existence. You were brought into the family of the woman scorned by your father, and although she tried with every ounce of her soul to love you, the fact you look just like your mother is like a slap to the face every time she looks at you.
"Your father feared losing another woman he loved, and so he detached himself from you. You have been held at arms length all your life, with no one to talk to when you are in need. The toll-free helplines were no good, and you never fit in with your peers. Your first and only best friend died from an accidental overdose of cough medicine under the watchful eye of a sleeping babysitter, and ever since then you've been wise and kept away from the other children.
"Until now. You had to go and befriend him. High school brings out the rawest of emotions, and your loneliness bested you. He never would have looked at you twice if you hadn't been so damn enchanting; hovering over the fifth floor window, ready to jump. Your would-be black hair licking around your pale face, the startled look in your icy eyes. The distress.
"There is something so attractive to young boys about a lost cause. And you should have been lost. Lost forever that night. But when you slipped and when he caught you, he gave you something to live for. And now here you are, cradling over his cold corpse.
"Open your eyes, Skye Malizia. Show me what you've done."

How social media + email drives sales
A hot topic around the Emma office this week was the recent Kissmetrics article that analyzed the challenge of using social media channels to convert people into paying customers.
We like to talk around Emma. A lot. We had way too many opinions to fit in the area around our office water cooler, so they spilled over into the blog. Feel free to leave a comment and join the conversation.
What's your take on the article's conclusion that people don't want to be customers on social media?
Mary Foster, Social Media Specialist: It's not all that surprising. Social is one of the lowest-performing channels for us in terms of conversions as well. But we've never really treated social as a sales tool.
Cynthia Price, Director of Partner Development: Exactly. You shouldn't approach social with those sales goals in mind. Social was built as a community so you have to think of it in that way. You have to think about engagement as a different measurement of success than actual conversion to buy.
Hana Crume, Client Insights Lead: I think direct sales pushes don't work with a lot of people because there is a lack of trust there. Retailers have to think about how to use social to build a relationship with customers and an experience around what they're trying to sell.
Grey Garner, Market Strategist: I think your content has to be genuine and conversational. It has to be transparent, and it has to be human. But I don't think that means you can't talk about what you do. And if there is something good or special to share, then you can interject that into the conversation in the same way that you interject "Hey, I just got a great deal at a local shop. You should go check it out."
Christopher Lester, Director of Concierge: You have to look at social through your customers' eyes. What benefits them and what makes their time interacting with you through this medium better? Is this going to help them? These are important questions that enough brands don't ask.
Mary: Right. Help potential customers or existing customers feel connected to your brand through photos, inside sneak peeks or lifestyle types of content. If you're selling jewelry, would it be more beneficial to post an ad for the jewelry or to share photos of celebrities wearing your jewelry? Probably the second one.
Hana: And while you might not get the clickthrough to convert from your social channels, there is still huge value in nurturing that potential customer and building that relationship, which will be crucial to the eventual sale.
Christopher: Yes, things that make your brand seem more relevant to folks and help them align with you stronger ultimately drive those buying experiences.
The article showed that email is a more successful channel for customer acquisition than Facebook or Twitter. Why do you think that is?
Grey: Strictly from a sales and commerce perspective, I think email has a huge role to play in terms of taking those social touch points and actually having a conversion. I think it is the ROI channel in that respect. But it can be driven by great experience on social channels.
Cynthia: Each of those social touch points inch you closer to a conversion, but I feel like email is the best at pushing further down the funnel to where you might make a purchase.
Christopher: It's really a series of small conversions. Social is a great way to create brand awareness that will convert me to hear from you via email, and then email converts me to landing on your website with some intention where I would ultimately make a purchase.
Grey: And I think people's expectation around email for interacting with brands is that it's less about having a conversation, because it isn't a conversation. It's a push channel at that point. So the expectation is "I'm going to receive deals."
Cynthia: If I get a coupon in my inbox, then it feels like I got something special, like it's something that maybe only I got. I don't know if everybody else got it. There's something about email that makes it feel more unique and personal.
Mary: It's because you can segment your audience in email in a way that you can't in social. Personalized emails can be relevant, timely and offer some awesome exclusive sale or perk. So personally, I find it a better sales conversion channel. And I think the numbers in the article show that too.
How are we using social at Emma to engage our followers?
Cynthia: For us, it's about pulling back the curtain on what goes on inside these walls, how we think about things, how we build things, how we engage with our customers.
Mary: For example, we have an Instagram account. We're obviously not trying to sell new Emma accounts on Instagram, but it's a fun way to give people who like us an inside look into Emma.
Christopher: Brands that get it put out quality thought leadership and cultural pieces that remind folks that there are actual people that work here, and they have passions in life beyond what we do everyday. It helps people feel a connection and builds trust with your brand.
Grey: And we also have a notion of karma in what we're doing in that the majority of what we're doing is sharing content that we don't write. So there's a little bit of that giving back idea and approaching it in the right way that brings some credibility.
Hana: Which is important because people have much better BS detectors than they used to. They can tell when a brand is making an authentic connection versus when they're trying to sell something.
Christopher: People are always worried about how to communicate B2B with social, but those aren't just businesses or customers. They're people. If you're really a relevant brand, you're wanting them to buy because you feel your product is going to make their lives better. And I'm not just talking about email marketing, because I mean, there are times that a new pair of jeans will make my life better.

My early favorite for Offensive Rookie of the Year would have to be C.J. Spiller. I would choose C.J. because of his attitude and his hard work ethic. I know that Spiller will give it his all, 110%. He gave Clemson and I don't think he will have any trouble giving his all to the Bills. C.J. Spiller is going to get in the record books this season; I can feel it in my bones!
My plans this summer are to go to some camps or contests such as the Punt, Pass, and Kick contest. On my extra time I'll get all my friends, and we might go to a local park to play football. I don't play football as a league sport, but I still love football. One thing I know will happen this summer is; I'm going to have lots of fun!
