To the Mountains
I let out a battle cry as I shoot another arrow at the humans castle. I grab another from my back and slip it into my bow, aiming once again at the castle. We'd been doing this for hours, and the sun was soon to set. I call down to my father,
"Father! I must go find rest!"
"Fine Son! To the mountains then!!" he calls back, stabbing another human in the chest. I didn't know I had winced until I'd realized I'd dropped my bow. I fly down to retrieve it then fly off towards the mountains.
I watch the war beneath me. Everyone is yelling, swords are flying and blood covers the ground. I see bodies laying strewn across the ground and watch as more add to the total. I shed a tear and watch as that too falls to lay amongst the carnage.

BeschreibungFirst published in 1899, "The School and Society "describes John Dewey's experiences with his own famous Laboratory School, started in 1896. Dewey's experiments at the Labora-tory School reflected his original social and educational philosophy based on American experience and concepts of democracy, not on European education models then in vogue. This forerunner of the major works shows Dewey's per-vasive concern with the need for a rich, dynamic, and viable society. In his introduction to this volume, Joe R. Burnett states Dewey's theme. Industrialization, urbanization, science, and technology have created a revolution the schools cannot ignore. Dewey carries this theme through eight chapters: The School and Social Progress; The School and the Life of the Child; Waste in Education; Three Years of the University Elementary School; The Psychology of Elementary Education; Froebel's Educa-tional Principles; The Psychology of Occupations; and the Development of Attention.
PortraitJoe R. Burnett is Professor of History and Philosophy of Education at the University of Illinois, Champaign.

• Composite video: color ("chrominance") and intensity ("luminance") signals are mixed into a single carrier wave.
a) Chrominance is a composition of two color components (U and V).
b) In NTSC TV, e.g., U and V are combined into a chroma signal, and a color subcarrier is then employed to put the chroma signal at the high-frequency end of the signal shared with the luminance signal.
c) The chrominance and luminance components can be separated at the receiver end and then the two color components can be further recovered.
d) When connecting to TVs or VCRs, Composite Video uses only one wire and video color signals are mixed, not sent separately. The audio and sync signals are additions to this one signal.
• Since color and intensity are wrapped into the same signal, some interference between the luminance and chrominance signals is inevitable.
Li & Drew
Example of U-V color plane,
Y' value = 0.5.

Li & Drew
• NTSC (National Television System Committee) TV standard is mostly used in North America and Japan. It uses the familiar 4:3 aspect ratio (i.e., the ratio of picture width to its height) and uses 525 scan lines per frame at 30 frames per second (fps).
a) NTSC follows the interlaced scanning system, and each frame is divided into two fields, with 262.5 lines/field.
b) Thus the horizontal sweep frequency is 525×29.97 ≈ 15, 734 lines/sec, so that each line is swept out in 1/15.734 × 103 sec ≈ 63.6μsec.
c) Since the horizontal retrace takes 10.9 μsec, this leaves 52.7 μsec for the active line signal during which image data is displayed (see Fig.5.3).
Li & Drew

• PAL (Phase Alternating Line) is a TV standard widely used in Western Europe, China, India, and many other parts of the world.
• PAL uses 625 scan lines per frame, at 25 frames/second, with a 4:3 aspect ratio and interlaced fields.
(a) PAL uses the YUV color model. It uses an 8 MHz channel and allocates a bandwidth of 5.5 MHz to Y, and 1.8 MHz each to U and V. The color subcarrier frequency is fsc≈ 4.43 MHz.
(b) In order to improve picture quality, chroma signals have alternate signs (e.g., +U and -U) in successive scan lines, hence the name "Phase Alternating Line".
(c) This facilitates the use of a (line rate) comb filter at the receiver — the signals in consecutive lines are averaged so as to cancel the chroma signals (that always carry opposite signs) for separating Y and C and obtaining high quality Y signals.
Li & Drew
• SECAM stands for Système Electronique Couleur Avec Mémoire, the third major broadcast TV standard.
• SECAM also uses 625 scan lines per frame, at 25 frames per second, with a 4:3 aspect ratio and interlaced fields.
• SECAM and PAL are very similar. They differ slightly in their color coding scheme:
(a) In SECAM, U and V signals are modulated using separate color subcarriers at 4.25 MHz and 4.41 MHz respectively.
(b) They are sent in alternate lines, i.e., only one of the U or V signals will be sent on each scan line.
Li & Drew
• Table 5.2 gives a comparison of the three major analog broadcast TV systems.
Table 5.2: Comparison of Analog Broadcast TV Systems
Li & Drew
• The advantages of digital representation for video are many. For example:
(a) Video can be stored on digital devices or in memory, ready to be processed (noise removal, cut and paste, etc.), and integrated to various multimedia applications;
(b) Direct access is possible, which makes nonlinear video editing achievable as a simple, rather than a complex, task;
(c) Repeated recording does not degrade image quality;
(d) Ease of encryption and better tolerance to channel noise.
Li & Drew
• Since humans see color with much less spatial resolution than they see black and white, it makes sense to "decimate" the chrominance signal.
• Interesting (but not necessarily informative!) names have arisen to label the different schemes used.
• To begin with, numbers are given stating how many pixel values, per four original pixels, are actually sent:
(a) The chroma subsampling scheme "4:4:4" indicates that no chroma subsampling is used: each pixel's Y, Cb and Cr values are transmitted, 4 for each of Y, Cb, Cr.
Li & Drew
(b) The scheme "4:2:2" indicates horizontal subsampling of the Cb, Cr signals by a factor of 2. That is, of four pixels horizontally labelled as 0 to 3, all four Ys are sent, and every two Cb's and two Cr's are sent, as (Cb0, Y0)(Cr0, Y1)(Cb2, Y2)(Cr2, Y3)(Cb4, Y4), and so on (or averaging is used).
(c) The scheme "4:1:1" subsamples horizontally by a factor of 4.
(d) The scheme "4:2:0" subsamples in both the horizontal and vertical dimensions by a factor of 2. Theoretically, an average chroma pixel is positioned between the rows and columns as shown Fig.5.6.
• Scheme 4:2:0 along with other schemes is commonly used in JPEG and MPEG (see later chapters in Part 2).
Li & Drew
Li & Drew
• The main thrust of HDTV (High Definition TV) is not to increase the "definition" in each unit area, but rather to increase the visual field especially in its width.
(a) The first generation of HDTV was based on an analog technology developed by Sony and NHK in Japan in the late 1970s.
(b) MUSE (MUltiple sub-Nyquist Sampling Encoding) was an improved NHK HDTV with hybrid analog/digital technologies that was put in use in the 1990s. It has 1,125 scan lines, interlaced (60 fields per second), and 16:9 aspect ratio.
(c) Since uncompressed HDTV will easily demand more than 20 MHz bandwidth, which will not fit in the current 6 MHz or 8 MHz channels, various compression techniques are being investigated.
(d) It is also anticipated that high quality HDTV signals will be transmitted using more than one channel even after compression.
Li & Drew
• A brief history of HDTV evolution:
(a) In 1987, the FCC decided that HDTV standards must be compatible with the existing NTSC standard and be confined to the existing VHF (Very High Frequency) and UHF (Ultra High Frequency) bands.
(b) In 1990, the FCC announced a very different initiative, i.e., its preference for a full-resolution HDTV, and it was decided that HDTV would be simultaneously broadcast with the existing NTSC TV and eventually replace it.
(c) Witnessing a boom of proposals for digital HDTV, the FCC made a key decision to go all-digital in 1993. A "grand alliance" was formed that included four main proposals, by General Instruments, MIT, Zenith, and AT&T, and by Thomson, Philips, Sarnoff and others.
(d) This eventually led to the formation of the ATSC (Advanced Television Systems Committee) — responsible for the standard for TV broadcasting of HDTV.
(e) In 1995 the U.S. FCC Advisory Committee on Advanced Television Service recommended that the ATSC Digital Television Standard be adopted.
Li & Drew
• The salient difference between conventional TV and HDTV:
(a) HDTV has a much wider aspect ratio of 16:9 instead of 4:3.
(b) HDTV moves toward progressive (non-interlaced) scan. The rationale is that interlacing introduces serrated edges to moving objects and flickers along horizontal edges.

Prime Minister Trudeau And Family Spend Easter On Fogo Island
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and family made a brief stop-over at Gander International Airport in Newfoundland and Labrador Friday while en route to Fogo Island for the Easter weekend.
Trudeau was seen carrying his youngest child, while wife Sophie Grégoire Trudeau followed closely behind with the couple's other two children.
The family boarded another small plane for a reported weekend stay at the now-famous Fogo Island Inn.
According to a release from the Prime Minister's office, Trudeau is taking "private appointments" this holiday weekend and will not be disclosing his schedule.
Back in 1971, then prime minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau paid a brief visit to the province's south coast while on a tour of the Atlantic provinces.
Some say Trudeau senior visited Fogo Island as well, though likely on another trip.
U.S. ambassador to Canada Bruce Heyman posted photos of his trip to Fogo Island last year, calling it "one of the many highlights" of his time in Canada.
I took these photos on Fogo Island, Newfoundland and Labrador last summer. One of the many highlights of our time in Canada.

Local bus services would be handed to "not-for-profit" operators including community groups under a plan by Labour to end the market dominance enjoyed by five big companies.
An incoming Labour government would give councils the power to award local licences and make it much easier for non profit-making groups to run services. Labour says the move will throw a lifeline to rural areas left isolated by the loss of services. The number of miles of local bus service in such places has dropped by 23 per cent since 2010.
Labour regards the policy as similar to its interventionist plan to reduce the power of the "big six" energy companies. It claims the local bus market is not working for passengers because 2,000 routes have seen services reduced or axed completely since 2010, while fares have risen by 25 per cent - five times faster than wages.
Labour would halt the downward spiral by ending the dominance of Stagecoach, Arriva, Go-Ahead, First Group and National Express, who control 72 per cent of the market in England and recorded operating profits of more than £500m.
An incoming Labour government would set up an immediate review of how to boost the not-for-profit transport sector so that "passengers rather than operators come first". It could mean local groups or co-operatives running mini-buses or traditional buses and reinvesting any profits in services.
Labour wants to encourage the growth of groups such as Hackney Community Transport, formed in 1982 to provide low-cost mini-bus services for residents in the London borough, which has since expanded into Yorkshire, Humberside and the South West.
In London, buses are controlled by Transport for London, which is part of the Mayor's responsibility. Labour would give the same powers over contracts, fares and routes to local authorities outside the capital, where most services have been run by private companies since the industry was deregulated in 1986.

Michael Dugher, the shadow Transport Secretary, told The Independent: "Like the energy market, the bus market is broken. Developing a thriving not-for-profit sector is one way Labour will rebalance our bus market. The significant development of not-for-profit model will help city and county regions break the stranglehold that the big private bus operators currently have."
He added: "There is a proud and growing British tradition of community transport in the UK. It is a sector that serves both rural and urban areas, often operating in areas the commercial operators have turned their back on. In government, Labour will ensure that communities cannot be held to ransom by operators threatening to pull buses and cut services."
According to the Department for Transport, passenger journeys on local buses in England increased by two per cent to 4.7bn in the year to March 2014, the highest figure since the mid-1980s. Bus service mileage fell by 0.3 per cent, continuing a gradual decline since 2008-09.
The Confederation of Passenger Transport UK, which represents the bus and coach industry, denies that services are in crisis. It insists that operators have underpinned routes for many years after councils withdrew subsidies.
Nick Clegg said that the Liberal Democrats would not axe free bus passes for rich pensioners, even though it would withdraw their winter fuel allowances and free TV licences. The Lib Dems decided not to end free bus passes because they help keep the buses running and because older people rely on public transport.Reuse content

|"Over many decades of diving, I've gone on a number of photo workshops on liveaboard trips, but none come close to the standard set by Mark Strickland! Every day we had an hour or more discussion about some aspect of underwater photography, including some specialized topics that helped a lot, plus an image review of three or four shots each diver had taken that day. Mark's critiques were always constructive and our photos got steadily better. Mark is also a great guy, fun to travel with, fun to dive with. He never minded being asked for help, either! All in all one of the best trips ever! And we for sure will go on another of his trips soon!" - Tom Baker
| "I'm a better shooter as a result of Mark's instruction" - Mark Hatter "Mark was patient, knowledgeable, organized, and friendly. He had a concern for all of us--travel-wise and photography-wise.

Classical CD Review
Bad boy, bad boy. Whatcha gonna do? During the Twenties, George Antheil flared across the musical sky of Paris with a series of brilliant, highly experimental works like the Ballet mécanique and the "Airplane" Sonata. Music critics and philosophers published important articles about him. Ezra Pound tapped him as his "musical advisor," and took part (on the drum) in a performance of Antheil's Violin Sonata No. 2. Aaron Copland wrote, memorably, that Antheil "had Paris by the ear." Not too shabby for a boy from New Jersey. By the end of the decade, however, Antheil's star had dimmed. He had a restless mind and had begun what would be a lifelong journey to find another style. He felt the influences of Stravinsky and, later, Shostakovich. But Paris wanted more shock, and in the United States, to which he had returned, his radical works were held against him. He became known as the "airplane-propeller man," as if Ballet mécanique were the only thing he had written. The Piano Concerto No. 2 of 1926 is Antheil's first big work after the radical period. Here, one feels the powerful and obvious influence of Stravinsky's 1923 Concerto for Piano and Winds. It has the gravitas of the Stravinsky, without the thickness, and it's chock-full of great ideas, provocative takes on Bach's keyboard music that, Stravinsky aside, are at least ten years ahead of their time. In the Serenade No. 2, the thematic economy we saw in the piano concerto comes across as even tighter.
Aside from his legendary Ballet mécanique, which still gets played as a kind of souvenir of the madcap 1920s, George Antheil's concert music has mostly fallen into obscurity. In spite of his reputation as an enfant terrible who hobnobbed with the leading lights of the avant-garde, his works attract less attention than the details of his life. Yet this state of affairs might be reversed if this delightful release from CPO gets proper distribution, for the pieces presented here are worth hearing in their own right, …….Blair Sanderson @ AllMusic
As Joseph Fennimore writes in his notes for this very well documented CD, "Ms. Verbit is the first pianist to have undertaken the Olympian task of deciphering and recording these early pieces of Antheil. She uniquely has the requisite tenacity, skill and resources for the task. Dedication is the word. Her researches have been thorough, her relationship with Antheil becoming deeply personal even though they never met. Everything about him that could be known, she has learnt. When she refers to Antheil as "George," one has the feeling he asked her to call him that."

Arizona 17, N.Y. Giants 14
TEMPE, Arizona (Ticker) -- Emmitt Smith keeps saving his best
for the New York Giants.
Smith ran for two touchdowns and defensive end Bertrand Berry
recorded a career-high four sacks as the Arizona Cardinals
posted a 17-14 victory over the Giants.
With the Cardinals (4-5) trailing late in the third quarter,
Smith scored his eighth touchdown of the season - his most since
2000 - from three yards out to give Arizona the lead for good.
"Down near the end zone you have to be cutthroat," Smith said.
"There isn't time for a whole lot of shaking and baking."
Smith, who also scored at the end of the first half, rushed for
67 yards, giving him 18,050 in his career. His two scores give
him 24 in his career against the Giants, his second-highest
total against any team.
"I never thought about getting 18,000," Smith said. "I am just
doing the best I can to make everything happen for this team and
make as many plays as I can."
After Smith put the Cardinals ahead, Berry and Arizona's defense
shut down New York, limiting the Giants to 35 yards in the
final period, when Berry had two of his sacks.
"We really felt like we understood what they were trying to do,"
Berry said. "We felt that if we could get in (quarterback Kurt
Warner's) face, we knew that he holds the ball a little longer
then most quarterbacks and that if we stayed with our rush
things would work out."
New York (5-4) had one last chance, but Warner's fourth-down
pass was deflected by rookie linebacker Karlos Dansby, who had
two sacks, and fell incomplete. Two defensive linemen appeared
to jump offside on the play, but no penalty was called.
"As poorly as the offense played, especially in the second half
I still felt we had a great chance to win," Giants coach Tom
Coughlin said. "They started to put pressure on us. We got
sacked then run a play for minus yards then get a holding
penalty. We continued to put ourselves in a hole."
Warner completed 19-of-30 passes for 193 yards but was sacked
six times. Last week, he was sacked seven times by Chicago,
including four times by defensive end Alex Brown.
"They didn't do anything we didn't expect them to," Warner said.
"We just have to handle the blitz better."
Tiki Barber rushed for 108 yards and a touchdown on 21 carries.
His two-yard TD run in the second period gave the Giants a 14-3
lead. It was the 19th career 100-yard game for Barber, tying
Joe Morris for the most in team history.
He expressed his frustrations with the offensive line after the
"(The line) is good sometimes, but bad most of the time," Barber
said. "It puts Kurt at such a disadvantage that he can't make
his reads. He can't wait for the guys to get open and he ends
up getting sacked."
Barber, who came in leading the NFL in yards from scrimmage,
also had five receptions for 52 yards.
The Cardinals, who had just 178 total yards, have won three
straight home games for the first time since 1999 and are just
one game out of first place in the NFC West.
"Defensively we chased the quarterback," Arizona coach Dennis
Green. "You don't win too many games with just 17 points and we
had to do it the hard way. We didn't get any turnovers or
interceptions. We had to slug it out."
Warner was sharp early, completing all four of his passes on New
York's 80-yard opening drive, including a two-yard pass to
tight end Jeremy Shockey that made it 7-0. It was the first
time in 18 games that the Giants reached the end zone on their
first possession.
New York marched 80 yards on its next drive as well, capped by
Barber's two-yard score, but managed just 148 for the rest of
the game.
"I feel horrible for our defense," Warner said. "We went down
the first two drives and it was like we could do anything we
wanted to. I think our offense is not consistent enough."

Obsidian: Geology and Archaeology in the North American Southwest
€ 53,99
Besorgung - Lieferbarkeit unbestimmt
September 2005
BeschreibungObsidian was long valued by ancient peoples as a raw material for producing stone tools, and archaeologists have increasingly come to view obsidian studies as a crucial aid in understanding the past. Steven Shackley now shows how the geochemical and contextual analyses of archaeological obsidian can be applied to the interpretation of social and economic organization in the ancient Southwest. This book, the capstone of decades of investigation, integrates a wealth of obsidian research in one volume. It covers advances in analytical chemistry and field petrology that have enhanced our understanding of obsidian source heterogeneity, presents the most recent data on and interpretations of archaeological obsidian sources in the Southwest, and explores the ethnohistorical and contemporary background for obsidian use in indigenous societies. The book presents three groundbreaking applications of obsidian source studies. It first discusses an application to early Preceramic groups, showing how obsidian sources can reflect the range they inhabited over time as well as their social relationships during the Archaic period. It then offers an examination of the Late Classic Salado in Arizona's Tonto Basin, where obsidian data, along with ceramic and architectural evidence, suggest that Mogollon migrants lived in economic and social harmony with the Hohokam. Finally, it provides an intensive look at social identity and gender differences in the Preclassic Hohokam of central Arizona, where obsidian source provenance and projectile point styles suggest that male Hohokam sought to create a stylistically defined identity in at least three areas of the Hohokam core area. Today, obsidian research in theAmerican Southwest enjoys an equal standing with ceramic, faunal, and floral studies as a method of revealing social process and change in prehistory. Shackley's book discusses the ways in which archaeologists should approach obsidian research no matter what the region, offe

Welcome to part 27 of Let's Make a Framework, the ongoing series about
building a JavaScript framework.
If you haven't been following along, these articles are tagged with
lmaf. The project we're creating is called Turing.
Throughout this series I've referenced techniques used by widely-used
frameworks like jQuery and Prototype. Prototype packs a lot of
functionality and extends global JavaScript objects to do this.
jQuery takes a different approach. It uses large module-like chunks of
functionality wrapped in closures, then specific parts are exposed
through the
jQuery object (we usually write
\$() instead).
Turing has been designed in a similar way to jQuery -- to carefully keep
implementation details private and make functionality available without
polluting global objects.
One drawback of our current implementation is everything takes a lot of
typing. Disregarding the alias we created, code looks like this:
var element = turing.dom.get('#events-test a')[0];
turing.events.add(element, 'click', callback);
// Or...
turing.events.add(turing.dom.get('#events-test a')[0], 'click', callback);
We'd do this in jQuery:
$('#events-test').click(function() {
// Handler
In this case,
click is a shortcut, so the following is
$('#events-test').bind('click', (function() {
// Handler
This chaining can go on as long as you want. jQuery even provides tools
for popping up to different points in a chained result stack, like
.css('background-color', 'red')
.css('background-color', 'green')
This works particularly well when working with DOM traversal.
What this style of API gives us is the safety of namespaced code with
the power and succinctness of prototype hacking, without actually
modifying objects that don't belong to us.
The way this works in jQuery is
jQuery() accepts a selector
and returns an array-like jQuery object. The returned object has a
length property, and each element can be accessed with
square brackets. It's not a true JavaScript
Array, just
something similar enough.
Each call in the chain is operating on a
jQuery object,
which means all of the appropriate methods are available.
We've already seen a combination of aliasing and currying to create a
chainable API in Turing -- check out turing.enumerable.js and
turing.anim.js. In these cases, API calls were chained based on the first parameter -- the first parameter for functions in these classes
was always a certain type, so we could shortcut this and create a chain.
This is really a case of
currying, and is one of those fine examples of a nice bit of functional programming in JavaScript.
jQuery's chaining is based around the DOM, so the previous examples
don't really help. Rather than jumping straight into Turing code, I've
created a little class you can play with called
This will illustrate what underpins jQuery.
It uses a mock up of the DOM so it has something to query:
var dom = [
{ tag: 'p', innerHTML: 'Test 1', color: 'green' },
{ tag: 'p', innerHTML: 'Test 2', color: 'black' },
{ tag: 'p', innerHTML: 'Test 3', color: 'red' },
{ tag: 'div', innerHTML: 'Name: Bob' }
It's not a particularly accurate representation of the DOM, but it's
This is the core function:
function fakeQuery(selector) {
return new fakeQuery.fn.init(selector);
It returns a new object based on an
init method. The
init method builds an object which can carry around the
current selector and related elements:
fakeQuery.fn = fakeQuery.prototype = {
init: function(selector) {
this.selector = selector;
this.length = 0;
this.prevObject = null;
if (!selector) {
return this;
} else {
return this.find(selector);
find: function(selector) {
// Finds elements
// Returns a new fakeQuery
color: function(value) {
// Creates a copy of the current elements
// Changes them
// Returns a fakeQuery object with these elements
fakeQuery.fn.init.prototype = fakeQuery.fn;
prevObject property could be used to implement
end() (mentioned above). The full code is in a gist:
fakeQuery. This code uses Node, but you could delete the Node-related parts if you want to run it with Rhino.
Running this code with something like
fakeQuery('p').color('red').elements will produce:
[ { tag: 'p', innerHTML: 'Test 1', color: 'red' }
, { tag: 'p', innerHTML: 'Test 2', color: 'red' }
, { tag: 'p', innerHTML: 'Test 3', color: 'red' }
The overall architecture of jQuery is deceptively simple:
find can be called in a chain
The key to the last part is
fakeQuery.fn.init.prototype = . This line is what allows the
method reference
fakeQuery.prototype. You can try running
the code without this if you want to see what happens.
jQuery's design offers an efficient way of traversing and modifying the
DOM. This is attractive to us because we're building a framework without
modifying global objects in the way Prototype
Next week I'll look at building this into Turing. The interesting
challenge here is that as it stands there are no dependencies between
Turing's components.

So I think I'm about to be in the market for a .22 revolver. I'm leaning heavily towards the SP101 (I'd prefer DA/SA). Anyone have anything good, or bad, to say about 'em? Got another suggestion, I'm all ears.

God grants Liberty only to those who love it, and are always ready to guard and defend it.
~Daniel Webster
Your points are shallow... my points are Hollow....
I have a single six, and a S&W J frame, in .22. I like em both. The J frame has been a very good buy.
The one .22 revolver I dont have, but want, is a S&W Model 17 Masterpiece. Sweetest shooting handgun I have ever fired.
Product: Model 17 Masterpiece
Wife and I share a LCR for practice love it
I have planned on getting a Ruger Single Six Convertable (22 LR and 22 Magnum). Everytime I get ready to buy one some other family need comes up to take the funds. Priorities.
Yeah, I really like the Single Six but in order for it to fulfil the role of 'practice' gun, it really needs to have DA capabilities.
That 17 is schweeet! Can't afford it, but thankfully I can look at it for free!

"I don't believe gun owners have rights." - Sarah Brady
If you've got time to hunt around, an H&R 922 is a great DA/SA revolver if you can find one. If you do, let me know the serial #. I'm looking for a stolen one!

Lighten up and enjoy life because:
Paranoia strikes deep, into your life it will creep. It starts when you're always afraid... Buffalo Springfield - For What It's Worth
...new...Ruger SP101
...used...High Standard Sentinel Deluxe...2,4, or 6 inch bbl...
The best? Colt Diamondback 6" or 8"...though you could probably buy three Rugers for what a shooter DB costs.
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive." C.S. Lewis
I have a Ruger Single-Six hunter convertible. At 45 oz, the recoil certainly won't knock you down, but if you don't rock back on your heels, holding the gun at arms length might cause you to tip over ;)
In all seriousness, if you want a practice pistol, it is best to get what you use for SD. In my case, a .22 LCR would be perfect. Another option for wheelie wielders is the audible triggered laser that allows you to get feedback when dryfiring. Those only fit in .38 and larger barrels.
Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars.
It's a great shooter and a lot of fun. This one is unusual due to the 3" barrel. This is what I honed my snubbie technique with.
Know Guns, Know Safety, Know Peace.
No Guns, No Safety, No Peace.
I have had them all, at least the ones being made in the last 5 years. The best is the S&W 617 by far. The SP101 is good also but the 617 is king. However, it is pricey but worth it. Everyone I handed that gun to shot well. I sold off all my .22's because I moved to a place where I could not plink and shooting at paper targets with a .22 is like shooting a pellet gun and I can shoot a pellet gun right where I live for free, every day of the week and it costs less. :)
Shooting bottles, steel and other reactive targets is lots of fun; paper not so much.
Rofl. What else yah gonna spend your money on?
Its seriously probably the best revolver I will ever hold, or fire. From what I have read about them, its one of the best ever made. Old, or used ones are very highly sought after.
We have all heard how guns are a store of value. From what I have seen of the used prices of these particular guns, its true.

NEW ORLEANS- A 47-year-old New Orleans man faces 1,365 felony counts - and a bond of more than $10 million - after being rebooked on suspicion of filming himself molesting at least two girls numerous times.
An arrest-warrant portrays Edward Bush, a U.S. Department of Agriculture employee, as a self-styled pornographer who sexually exploited his female victims and sold the images for profit.
New Orleans Police Detective Marcia Willis-Watson says Bush used his computer and camera equipment to record his "sexual encounters" with a female who was 12 when the alleged incidents began in 2003.
A search of that equipment resulted in a Dec. 18 arrest on 1,334 child porn counts.
He also was arrested Nov. 6 and 20 for similar charges.

When you see me on this cold street, head down watching my feet
Do you throw hate at me with your eyes, the girl you loved but now despise
Do you believe that I'm fine? I bet your hoping all the time...
That I'm sinking under heavy sheets of blue,
When the weight that presses down on me, is you
Do you stick pins into my arms inside your head?
Tell me love, do you wish that I was dead?
Do you wish you could burn down my house, trap me inside?
Tell me love, would you even mind if I died?
If the light from my eyes faded in front of you
Would you still just think of me, as the evil one who
Took everything you had, and took it down with me
Took who you were, and expected you to be
Content with living alongside a frozen corpse, kissing your lips
Because you knew it was me, the dead girl. You held to your hips
The truth is, you never cared If I was living or dead
As long as you still got to drag me into your warm bed.

Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.
Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.
Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.

I liked his comedy, except when he got too blue, which he did way too often.
Oh, so they were on TV, just not a series.
Spud, when I was a kid, I used to watch Francis the Talking Mule movies on TV Saturday afternoons. Those and the Bowery Boys.
Speaking of a bad memory, I just looked on Wikipedia and found-out that Francis the Talking Mule was not on TV, but was in movies and in a comic strip.
Even though my name is Carl, a group of girls used to call me Carlton the Doorman (the guy who always spoke over the intercom on the Rhoda TV show.) I used to HATE being called that.
Being teased is not fun! I remember being teased at grade school because my name is Francis, and "Francis the Talking Mule" was on TV at the time.
My memory is not good that many years ago, but I don't remember being very upset at that teasing.
I like Patch Adams, Jumanji, Awakenings, Hook, Mrs. Doubtfire, Mork & Mindy, and Bicentennial Man, but my favorite is one that most people don't care for, Popeye.
Patch Adams
Patch Adams?
I was never a big fan of the standup routines by Robin Williams but he was outstanding in many of his movie roles, both comedic and dramatic. Dead Poets Society and Mrs. Doubtfire are two that immediately come to mind. Comedians often excel in dramatic roles.

"A student my lord?"
"Yes Riovynn. You have proven yourself quite capable in my service, and I wish to have others like you. The resistance fights with a passion that spirits and slaves lack. They fight for their homes and lives. That conviction could turn a simple slave girl into a fury. We need to something to combat. It won't be the sprirts who win this war it will be those like you."
"You flatter me my Lord."
"I do more than that Riovynn. I honor you. If you are successful and we crush the rebellion as I have foreseen, the victory will rest on your shoulders. All glory and credit will go to you for your work. You would be second only to me throughout the new Empire. Bear that in mind as go discharge your duties. Your new apprentice will be waiting in your room. You may go."
"As you wish."
I had entered with some measure of hope for my future. Joining the resistance would prove no small task, especially if they had escapees who recognized me. Defecting to them while convincing the emperor that I was still loyal to him would prove even more difficult. But now, I had to not only bring an apprentice, I would have to train and convince him that I was loyal to the Dark Lord as well.
Maybe I could train him to abhor the dark lord. Not because I believed in the light, but because I wanted vengeance for what the dark had taken from me. With the right training, he could grow up to be my partner and ally.
Failing that, I could just kill him. Inexperience would be a plausible enough excuse for his demise. The emperor would believe that the boy had been headstrong. He had failed to follow my explicit orders, and ended up falling to the enemy in his recklessness. I myself only just barely escaped. Then I would wish to go back to the resistance and complete my task in remembrance of the apprentice that they slew.
Yes. That would work.
I threw open the door to my chamber and found it dark. The blinds had been closed, the candles extinguished. I never left my room like this. The shadows invited too many enemies.
Someone else had been here.
My senses were instantly on the alert, and in a flash two of the many daggers concealed on my person were in my hands. I treated this like I would a life or death situation, For if I wasn't careful it could easily become one. Cloaked in shadow, I made my way to the window and threw open one the curtains.
A quick survey of the room failed to detect any intruders, but I wasn't letting my guard down yet. I kept up a careful scan and waited for a mistake.
After a moment, my bed curtain rippled faintly.
The two daggers in my hands were already flying through the fabric, and I held two more at the ready. Ripping off the bed curtain, I went to examine the dead intruder. When I saw that the bed was empty, I realized my mistake.
I had lowered my guard.
I heard the soft thump of feet landing on the floor, as the intruder fell from the ceiling. I tried to disentangle my hands from the bed curtain, but by the time the black clad stranger had readied himself for a confrontation, I had only succeeded in freeing one.
I would have to improvise.
The attacker made his first mistake by running at me. I twisted out of his way and added a little extra momentum to his charge with a push. He tumbled onto my bed. As he recovered, I tried to cut away the curtain but wasn't able to completely free myself. My attacker was fast. But not fast enough.
He hesitated, knowing that if he charged me I could best him, but if circled me I would have time to free my hand. He decided to charge once again. I dodged him like before, but also succeeded in wrapping the loose end of the curtain around the man's neck. As he continued running past me the curtain grew taught and jerked.
My hand was free.
I leapt at the man and gave him two quick slashes, one on the arm and one on the leg. Nothing deep, but enough to dissuade him from continuing to fight. I slammed him against the wall and drove my daggers through his loose clothing and into the wall. He was pinned.
I ripped off his mask and discovered two important things.
His face was bruised, as if he had been in another recent fight.
And he was a she.
"Do you know who you were trying to kill?" I asked her.
"I know perfectly well who I was trying to kill."
Her sarcasm was not what I was looking for. I ripped one of the daggers out of the wall and held it to her neck.
"And who exactly are you trying to kill, girl."
"You. Master."

Text and photos by SCOTT FYBUSH
It's a fairly brief Site of the Week this week, as we get back into the swing of things after our break for the NAB Show and some western travel that you'll see fairly soon in this space.
This installment wraps up our 2015 touring, and it does so, once again, in our adopted second home of northern Indiana. About 45 minutes west of Fort Wayne, US 30 brings us to the small city of Warsaw, home to about 14,000 people and a booming economy based on the orthopedics industry.
Commercial radio here is concentrated in this building on West Market Street, home to "Lake City Rock" WRSW-FM (107.3 Warsaw), "News Now" WRSW (1480 Warsaw, plus a translator at 99.7) and "Willie" country WAWC (103.5 Syracuse).
These stations are owned by Talking Stick Communications, which shares Dille family ties with the big Federated Media clusters to the east in Fort Wayne and the northwest in South Bend/Elkhart.
WRSW-FM gets pride of place in the streetfront studio right off the lobby; "Willie" has a spacious studio toward the rear of the building behind the sales office cubicles and across the hall from the rack room.
"News Now," which comes from a studio next to the rack room, is an interesting product, mostly automated but still with a fair amount of local news content, especially for a small market like Kosciusko County.
And there's more interesting radio to be heard here, too, thanks to our friend Brian Walsh and his unusual local broadcasting ventures.
We first caught up with Brian a few years back when he put WIOE-LP (98.3) on the air from a studio at his house, mixing oldies with programming produced by high school broadcasting students and remotes from the old WOWO Sunshine Studio mobile unit. In 2015, Brian acquired a silent full-power FM, WMYQ (101.1), in nearby South Whitley – and by the time we visited at year's end, 101.1 had the WIOE calls as "Oldies 101," while the former WIOE-LP had become WLQZ-LP. (It also moved from 98.3 to 93.9 to make room for a new full-power signal to the west in Culver, WYMR.)
The LPFM transmitter is in a back room at a building Brian owns on North Detroit Street (IN 15) near Center Lake north of downtown; in front, Brian was building out offices and a full-fledged studio when we visited.
The 101.1 class A site is southeast of Warsaw near Sidney, Indiana, at the same place it's been since 101.1 signed on the air in the early 1990s. Inside, Brian was working on upgrades to the venerable McMartin and Energy-Onix boxes he inherited when he bought the station…which means we'll have to swing by again this summer for an updated visit!
Thanks to WIOE/WLQZ's Brian Walsh and the staff at Talking Stick/Warsaw for the tours!
Yes, you may.
Four months have passed on our Tower Site Calendar. Four glorious tower pictures.

Saturday night's game against Real Salt Lake is one that Casey Townsend won't soon forget.
With injuries to forwards Juan Pablo Angel and Alejandro Moreno, Townsend stepped up for Chivas USA, starting his second straight game and delievering the game-winning goal in Chivas' surprising 1-0 victory over RSL at Rio Tinto Stadium to earn SBI MLS Rookie of the Week honors.
Townsend showed a level of fearlessness to go up for a header off Ante Jazic's cross with goalkeeper Nick Rimando coming off his line to leap for the ball. When RSL centerback Chris Schuler impeded Rimando and made him unable to make a clean catch, Townsend, the fifth overall pick in January's SuperDraft out of the University of Maryland, pounced on the loose ball and poked it into the net for his first-career goal.
Townsend's goal gave him the edge for the weekly honors over New York Red Bulls goalkeeper Ryan Meara, who turned in another strong performance against the Colorado Rapids, and Columbus Crew midfielder Kirk Urso, who was steady and distributed well in a holding role against the Montreal Impact.
What did you think about Townsend's performance? Think he can be the answer up top for Chivas?
Share your thoughts below.
since when is using the defender as a stepping stone legal? He fouled Schuler to even get up that high, cheap goal, but it counts. We'll see how Chivas and he preform the the next time RSL meets up with them, or against pretty much anyone else this year. Enjoy it Chivas fans, your not going to get many more of those W's this year!
