Pics, Rex. Where are the pics?
Cool!!! Got any pics of that masterpiece?? Would love to see how it turned out.
I second the call for pix! Don't tease us like this Rex, you lucky, lucky boy!
WOW! Rex thanks so much. I don't think I'm some awesome painter there are many people on this board who I feel smoke me I just try to capture the look of it being a film used prop and not a working helmet if that makes sense. I hope everyone remembers I did 8 of these at once which lengthend the receipt time back to you. I have much higher build prices but for the money I think it's a great value.
Glad to see you are happy Rex. I boxed up more last night and I am able to ship in the U.S from work. I have one international customer who has been patiently waiting for me to get to the Post office but it's going as soon as I can bribe my co-workers to cover for me while I drive across town on my lunch hour to ship it.
It is my hope that everyone likes their helmet as much as it sounds like you do. It has been a long wait for you folks.
Best Regards
You frekin tease. This should be our RS helmet shoff thread.
Heck YEAH I'm happy with it Lee!!!
Can't say anything more that conveys my feelings!
And yes, my bad on the No Pix! I was feeling rather jubilant, and rushed to express myself...before pics!
I will do my utmost to get a pic of it. You saw the lineup of helmets Lee did (still don't know how Lee did 8 at once!!) and to actually hold it, stare at it, is really a darn nice feeling. I don't know how the flash, etc will turn out for the colors, but the battlewear is truly what makes this a tremendous helmet.
It's been a rough year for me, and this is definently a high point. My ESB Fett is getting closer! This Halloween marks a two year anniversary in my personal Quest for Fett! It's been a long road, but it's been a fun one too. I have nearly everything I need to complete Fett, just need to snag one more item. (well, gotta get a scope too, but...okay, one scope and one set of shin tools that I've had my eye on for what, 3 months?!?) Hopefully, I'll be able to order them soon.
Man, this is fun. And don't ask me what my next Star Wars costume will be!! I swore I wouldn't start another SW costume until Fett is finished!! Then, who knows? Will it finally be a Stormtrooper? A Sandtrooper? Those Snowtroopers look awfully cool too. (no pun intended...) and then there's Clonetroopers. Do you do the all-white version? The yellow Commander? Red? The Blue and Green which are barely glimpsed in the movie, but figure prominently in Battlefront? Or, the ArcTrooper???
Nope!! It's Fett, then who knows??
take care all,
stop teaseing again, show us some darn pictures LOL
Turo, I lost yours I think it blew away in a hurricane yeah that's it LOL .
Man I'm afraid to see any pics myself it's kind of like hearing or seeing yourself on video you never look or sound like you think you do. I feel the same way about these helmets I don't like looking at my own work. Eye's closed.
Man - you dont know how much I'm looking forward to this helmet. This will be my dream quest. Since 1980.

Thanks man.
You cant post a thread like this without pictures
I was really lucky to have Lee paint my MSH & its without a doubt the BEST paintjob around.
The amount of time & effort he puts into these helmets is unreal.
"Fellas..Fellas, I put my pants on just like you..one leg at a time. Except when my pants are on... I paint green helmets!"
LOL. Gotta love that cowbell skit.
Take it from the top, DON'T FEAR THE FETT!!!
I was able to watch Lee work on these helmets.
Trust me...whatever he is charging is not enough. There is so much work in this you would not believe it. Especially with 8 at once!
Good job, Lee
No pictures yet... ?
Also I LONG wait for these PICS. COME ON post them already!!

What did you do Rex eat the darn thing?
Jeez dude, just send it to me already and I'll snap a few pics. Then maybe I'll consider sending it back.
Prabably - cuz it was that GOOD!

Alrighty...I've got a pic, I'll post it right soon!!

take care,
sure........ by that time ep3 will be out
...............................(JEOPARDY music in the backround)........Pics, Pics, Pics..
Well I got my helmet from Lee and it is awesome. My only complaint is it should have had a warning label on box that prepared me to fall on the floor when I opened it. I'm very happy with mine and looking at it leaves me speechless so I'll let the pics do the talking.
Now I just have to finish this baby up.
Man it's weird how flash can washout detail..that is why I kept plugging away on those. I'm glad you are happy and if you guys need anything please contact me.
Does the happy dance! Muhhahaha! I get to touch it!! Nanny nanny boo boo! Right before Holloween too!!!

My father-in-law just gave my wife his Colt Frontier Six Shooter .44-40. I was wondering if any of you had any way to find some information about it. He called Colt a while back with the serial number and found out it was sold to Sears in 1907, but that's all I know about it right now. Send me some links so I can learn some more about the history of this cool gun!
I was wondering what the approximate value of it is, if the grips could be original and if I can buy any box of .40-44 for it and shoot them or if I have to buy a specific kind (of course I'd get it checked by a gunsmith first). Thanks!

Looks like a pretty nice gun. The grips look like stag and probably are not original. I won't speculate on it's value, however .44-40 ammunition is still available. A very nice family heirloom and piece of history.

Notice that the caliber is 44-40,not 40-44.If the gun has been checked out,you should probably use cowboy loads to be on the safe side.If you chose to sell,there are probably several on this forum interested.
I will say that the number on the loading gate does not match the serial number on the gun (Isn't supposed to). There is probably another number under the triggerguard. When you handle the gun and pull the hammer to the half cock (loading) notch. Never lower the hammer from this point, always pull the hammer to full cock and then lower the hammer. This prevents the scratch around the cylinder. How much original blue color is on the gun? Is there much of the mottled color case hardening visible? How is the bore? Does the gun stay on the first and second notches? The answers to these questions will have a bearing on the value.

It appears the exterior finish has never been messed with and that is a plus. If your father-in-law found out it was shipped to sears, they may have also stated what type of stocks were on the gun, if the stocks were unknown, then it would have most likely shipped with hard black rubber stocks. If the gunsmith states its OK to shoot, any commercially available 44-40 ammo should be fine. He will basically check that when the gun is cocked, that the cylinder locks so as to be in-line with the barrel. Also he will check the forcing cone area of the barrel for cracks and if the cylinder chambers have heaving pitting or cracks and also the condition of the barrel. Also, he will check for fore and aft play of the cylinder (called endshake). Lead cowboy ammunition will be cheaper than Winchester or Remington jacketed soft point ammo.
While the exterior finish has mostly turned to patina (a nicer way of turning brown) it has not been cold blued or messed with. The lettering is still sharp. I would state at least $1500 and up in this market which appears to be turning around for the upside of late.
The barrel that is on the colt is a later production barrel than what came on an original 1907 vintage saa. The high profile sight and the 44-40 added behind the "colt frontier six shooter" indicates that it may have been later than 1915 or so.
Here is what the barrel marking and front sight should look like for the 1907 production era. The gun pictured is a 4-3/4" barrel length but the markings and the sight are the same no matter the barrel length.
Always interested in adding nice, original or interesting pre 1940 single actions to my private collection. Contact me via PM.

The Children's Home
In 2000 Pastor Jeyekanth and his wife rescued two young children who had been abandoned in a local hospital and took them into their home. As more children came into their care their home became too small and a separate building was required. Since that day the work has grown substantially, partly due to the tsunami as many children were orphaned or their families could no longer afford to support them.
In 2006 thanks to generous donations we were able to purchase land and carry out significant building work to expand the home. We now have separate buildings to accommodate boys and girls. Currently, there are 92 children living in the Children's home at 6th Mile Post, Trincomolee.
The home also provides employment to 15 members of staff. The boys and the girls home each have one cook and two kitchen assistants. This enables us to provide three good meals a day to the children. Each home also has its own warden and assistants to ensure the well being and safety of the children. The running of the home is overseen by a General Manger.
Education in Sri Lanka is free providing you have school uniform, shoes, books and pencils. Part of our care is to supply all of these items. Teaching staff are also employed on a part time basis to provide extra tuition after school hours. Thanks to generous support we have recently established an IT suite at the Children's home complete with broadband connection. IT skills will improve their future employment prospects and allow them a greater breadth of education.
Horticulture & Agriculture
Part of the education of the children is for them to learn how to grow and care for crops. The land surrounding the Children's home is used to grow crops including rice, sago, coconuts and bananas to name just a few. Cows, goats and chickens are reared for milk, meat and eggs. This work not only contributes to the food that they eat today but provides them with valuable life skills for the future.
Vocational Training
Once a child leaves school there is an opportunity for them to be trained in particular skills such as carpentry, masonry, welding and metalwork,tailoring and needlework. We have built a training centre in the grounds of the Children's home which is in the process of being equipped with tools and machinery.

Notebook in LaTeX environment
Hi all!
I'm looking for a way to copy the Notebook as a whole and paste it into a Latex document and I want it to appear, more or less, the way it appears in the Mathematica environment.
One way could be as a picture file, but i'm looking for something a bit more flexible.
Another way is to make TeXForm an Plain Text conversions, but that can be tedious, because it requires separate handling of all the different types of text in the notebook, e.g. the expressions, the messages, the comments, the commands. And it doesn't do the 'In[#]:=' and 'Out[#]:=' bits!

I've been thinking about starting a campaign with Tsar, but the gods from Bard's Gate all presume 3.5 rules.
I want to create a 7th level cleric to be able to jump right in.
Is there any chance of Frog God updating the Bard Gate deities for Pathfinder? There are a couple of domains in Bard's Gate that have not been "Pathfinderized" and there is at least one Pathfinder core domain (Glory) which none of the deities in Bard's Gate have.
Even if they won't be updated officially, if there was a way to put in a sidebar or something that listed the typical gods for PCs that may be helpful.
(Also, if there's no plan to update, I may take a crack at throwing something together this weekend for review here.)

Japan priest fights invisible demon: radiation
By Ruairidh Villar and Yuriko Nakao
FUKUSHIMA (Reuters) - On the snowy fringes of Japan's Fukushima city, now notorious as a byword for nuclear crisis, Zen monk Koyu Abe offers prayers for the souls of thousands left dead or missing after the earthquake and tsunami nearly one year ago.
But away from the ceremonial drums and the incense swirling around the Joenji temple altar, Abe has undertaken another task, no less harrowing -- to search out radioactive "hot spots" and clean them up, storing irradiated earth on temple grounds.
The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, some 50 km (31 miles) away, suffered a series of explosions and meltdowns after the massive earthquake and tsunami last March 11, setting off the world's worst nuclear crisis since Chernobyl in 1986 and forcing 80,000 people from their homes.
Radiation, carried on winds and by snow, spread far beyond the 20 km (12 miles) evacuation zone around the plant, nestling in hot spots across the region and contaminating the ground in what remains a largely agricultural region.
Many of those who fled have no idea when, if ever, they can return to land held by their families for generations.
"The damage here in Fukushima is different from the destruction caused by the tsunami," Abe said.
"You can't see it. Nothing looks as if it's changed, but really, radiation is floating through the area. It's hard for those hit by the tsunami, but it's hard to live here too."
Last summer, Abe grew and distributed sunflowers and other plants, such as field mustard and amaranthus, in an effort to lighten the impact of the radiation and cheer local residents. Continued...

Thank you for reviewing this recipe.
I made this to try this weekend, It is spectacular. My family will be making this to put in our Christmas Baskets to give to our friends.
Milk Chocolate Almond Brickle
Last December, I made this recipe for the first time and made no less than 15 batches of this wonderful candy!! It was such a huge hit with everyone who received it, that I am asked this year if I plan on making more. (Actually, it is more of a demand!) Every December, I make 70-90 dozen different kinds of cookies, at least 18-8 inch loaves of pumpkin bread, 18 loaves of another kind, and at least 20 pounds of candies, truffles and fudges. Add the 15 or so batches of your wonderful brickle and it all makes for delightful gift baskets for my out-of-state family and in-state friends. Thank you for an easy and so delicious brickle recipe - it is the best one I ever tried!
Super Easy
This recipe is one of my kids favorites. I just made some today and I had all the neighborhood kids here wanting a piece. This recipe is so easy and quick and my kids just love it so do I and my husband as well. I always thought candy was hard to make since the carmels I make at christmas take forever and other recipes I have read look so detailed and take forever but this recipe is so simple qick and easy and the result is awesome.
so rich and so good

Celebrity Kelly Brook has helped Unilever's Magnum ice cream join its €1 billion club of brands, as shares in the consumer goods giant jumped to an all-time high today.
The world's third-biggest consumer goods firm said that both Magnum and Sunsilk shampoo had delivered revenues ahead of the milestone last year to give it 14 brands in its €1 billion portfolio, including Dove soap, Knorr soup, Lipton tea, Walls ice cream, Flora margarine and Surf detergent.
Unilever launched Magnum in the US last year and has been using model Brook for around 12 months to promote its ice cream, such as at the opening of the brand's pop-up shop at Westfield Stratford City in August.
The Anglo-Dutch maker of Hellmann's mayonnaise posted underlying sales growth of 6.9% over 2012, which was ahead of City expectations of 6.5%. This helped propel shares in Unilever up by 74p, or 3%, to a record 2526p.
Unilever said "double-digit" growth in emerging markets, such as India, Indonesia and China and Brazil, had boosted its turnover by 10.5% to €51.3 billion.
The group, which also owns Ben & Jerry's ice cream, described its performance in Europe as "sluggish" and the region's sales rose by just 0.8% last year, although the UK and France "continued to perform well".
The group's pre-tax profits rose by 7% to €6.68 billion.

Arctic Cooling Copper Lite Socket A Cooler
Still use Socket A and are in need of replacement cooling? It's time to test out Arctic Cooling's Copper Lite, which will hopefully cut down on our overall load temps. It also promises much quieter cooling than stock coolers, so let's jump to it.
After reading the review here, please feel free to discuss it here! Comments, questions and suggestions are most welcomed.
Socket A?! :eek:
I suppose that says enough about the subject...
Well, ok. There are guys who overclock their Athlon XPs like mad, but c'mon...
At some point, even a Socket 754 system should be so cheap... alright..g'night.
I agree, but Socket A isn't so bad.
Anyone who discredits socket A is a fool. period. It's not 64 bit enabled and its not as powerful but the XP's are more than powerful enough to power todays games.
Oh I agree! It's a very cheap but cost-effective alternative when buying a complete system. But it is a dead end. I'd still buy a laptop with an Athlon XP, since I won't be doing much of anything but write and listen to some music.
Socket A is superb. No reason to upgrade a whole platform just so I can--what, type faster? Sorry, the incentive to upgrade isn't there. Need a whole lot more action on the 64-bit app front before its anywhere close to necessary to upgrade. Drop in a 6800GT or an X800GTO and you can play any game available at butter smooth frame rates.
As for the review, I have to admit that I have no respect at all for you rating system. 9/10 with only one degree drop in load temps? That's nothing but boosterism. Sure it's nice to have a little bit less noise, but the stock HSFs are pretty darn quiet.
I really hope you reconsider your rating system. a 10/10 should be given to products that completely transcend all expectations. 5/10 is all expectations met but not exceeded. 0/10 is a product that finds innovative ways to disappoint you.
The most I'd give this product based upon your own review is a 6.5/10. Your encouraging people to spend more money for a single degree? Boo. And to dispell another myth, AS5 will have only a negligable impact on temps. It's not going to turn a turd into gold.
Disregard the X800GTO from my last post since I think it is pci-e only.
Well, I had in mind the AGP limit with Socket A boards, although sure, they'll work. PCI-e is the way the industry seems intent on heading.
I agree that the scoring was way high for a tiny difference in load temp...although I decide for myself if I ever needed a product. People give rave reviews that I largely disagree with. It's nice to know that the product works as it should, but they don't present anything that makes that piece of hardware 'special.'
Superb.. maybe
I'm a crazy gamer who does more than game at the same time...... Athlon 64, my Roomie has (Athlon XP Soc A) i play CSS full settings with music and 3 Im programs running along with azureus and i play fine, however he trys and it just does not give the same effect.... sure if you don't have the money to spend on your PC and just need to get a small glimpse of power. Then go buy a socket A, but when you think of upgrading.. your going to spend alot more in the long run I would think.
But hey, thats just my opinion. :P
I dont think that anyone in this thread has suggested going out and buying a new machine with an XP in it. I personally think that a new build would have to include a A64 or it's Intel equivelant *gasp* The cooler Rob reviewed will work nicely for anyone with an Athlon XP system that they are trying to extend the life of. Not that this cooler will technically extend the life of the CPU but it will certainly cool better than a stock cooling solution.
Drew reviewed the cooler, not I :)
Thank you for all the feedback on the AC Copper Lite review. I will agree that the rating scheme was overly generous in hind sight. The cooler however did perform better than the advertised numbers it would recieve (advertised was a temp improvement of .55 degrees celcius). A temperature drop of one degree is almost double the advertised improvement. Also the extremely limited overclock ability of the Socket A platform dictates that this particular cooler is putting all its hopes in the fact that it is alot quieter than the stock cooler. The noise difference is very noticeable right from start-up. So i will yeild that the rating scheme was asckew but this product is very good for older technology and not everyone has the money to invest in the latest and greates toys and they shouldn't be left out for that.
*looks at his socket-A motherboard and shakes his head* what can I say, IM SOOO POOR!!! I have an Abit KV7 motherboard and its given me nothing but trouble since the day I got it!! In a few months I'll hopefully have enough money to buy a half decent CPU *shakes his head at his AMD Athlon XP 2000+ CPU* and a new motherboard too!
By the way can someone please help me out on the Logisys 3.5" Digital Thermal Controller thread!! Ive already blown-up my first one and just recieved my second one and cant afford another!

Very nice.
Hello everyone! I thought I'd start with a pic of my favorite revolver.
Colt Diamondback .22
Many years ago I tried to interest Colt in reviving the New Service and giving it the Python treatment, and thus have three matched guns on differing frames, but to no avail.
I've owned all three guns, Pythons, Diamondbacks and New Services. And, dang it!, I don't have a one now.
Bob Wright
P.S. Friend of mine had a 2 1/2" Diamnondback, and that is what I really wanted for carrying. Couldn't talk him out of his, and couldn't come up with one at a reasonable price. Settled for a Smith Model 19 and never looked back.
Last edited by Bob Wright; 05-12-2010 at 08:56 AM. Reason: Afterthought!
Congrats mr. Brown-----you got a keeper for sure !!!!! I bought a 6" diamondback in the early 1970's. It is chambered for .22 long rifle. Awesome pistol for small game hunting. I refer to it as my "baby python"
my wife used it to win a first place trophy in an nra hunters pistol match in the early 1980's, while we were living in el centro, ca.
Take good care of it & enjoy for your lifetime !!!!!!!!!!
Outstanding!! You don't see many .22 Diamondbacks in that good of shape anymore. Nice
One ? for u -- is the trigger pull on the diamondback as nice as on the other Colt Snake guns ?
Very nice, you don't see too many .22 versions. I'd love one to go with my .38 Special Diamondback.
I have a blue python but a want a matching Diamondback in 22. Very nice gun, does it shoot as nice as a python?

The Kimber Compact I just got last week has a nasty sharp edge on the corner of the grip where the mainspring pin is. This sharp edge just happens to stab directly into my strong side love handle. My New Agent has a rounded corner, and I can carry it all day and not know it's there. The Kimber's checkered mainspring housing doesn't feel very nice against the side either, but that is easily fixed by buying a new one.
My question is, is there an approved DIY way to do this. In the past, I have re-blued a grip safety after fitting, refinished 5 handguns with Moly Resin, and done a good bit of part fitting. Would it be as simple as using a stone to round the edge, then a touch-up refinish?

Well howdy do! How are we all?? As I write this we are in Durham on our hols.
Today is another Sugar Bowl challenge and this time the sketch is by Marlene. She has given us a beauty! And this time the extra option is doodling. Now as you will see from all the 'sweeties' entries that some of us are no expert doodlers.....and some of us are! I am definetely of the former variety!!
My card today features a current favourite of mine..'Upside Down' by Diane Duda. She is coloured with prismas and twinkling H2O's and then highlights added with a white ink pen. The sky has been done with H2O's. Then my doodles have been added around the edge of the image.
The papers are all October Afternoon and the flowers have been cut out from a pieces of the patterned paper with a brad added to the middle. The edges have been inked and curled for a bit of definition.
Well I have managed to get online and the hols so far are a bit 'dodge the shower' but we have had a nice time. So far we have explored Durham Cathedral and been to Beamish for the day. What a fab day that was..we didn't get round it all so we are going to go back and take a trip on the trams again! Today is wet wet wet..so maybe a bit of indoor action is in order! No pics to show you I'm afraid as I didn't bring my camera cables ...doh!
Thanks for popping by! Hope you are all well!
Catch ya soon,

THE HAGUE (Reuters) - International Criminal Court prosecutors accused former Congolese rebel warlord Jean-Pierre Bemba of ordering mass rape to terrorise civilians at a hearing on Monday to decide whether he will face trial.
Bemba, 46, faces three counts of crimes against humanity and five counts of war crimes, and is the highest-profile suspect to date brought before the world's first permanent war crimes court, set up in 2002.
Bemba is accused of leading rebels from Democratic Republic of Congo in a campaign of torture, rape and murder in neighbouring Central African Republic. He was arrested in Belgium last May.
The hearing on Monday was to decide whether there was enough evidence to proceed with a trial. Bemba denies the charges.
The charges focus on the period between 2002 and 2003 when Ange-Felix Patasse, president of the Central African Republic at the time, asked Bemba's Congolese Liberation Movement to put down coup attempts in his country.
"Bemba's men went from house to house, pillaging and raping mothers, wives and daughters," said prosecutor Petra Kneuer.
Bemba's troops were instructed to "traumatise and terrorise" the population to prevent them from supporting any resistance against Patasse, the prosecution said.
"To do this, he (Bemba) chose rape as his main method," Kneuer said. Continued...

I use Speer Gold Dot ammo and have heard the CCI primers are rather hard. What setup are those of you who have replaced the springs using? Thanks.

Update: This post has been corrected to reflect that the film fest and pageant take place in Portland, Maine.
It's a big weekend for mustaches, so if you're blessed with a hairy upper lip, you may want to step out and show off.
Over in Washington, D.C., our friends at the American Mustache Institute are preparing for Sunday's "Million Mustache March." (All are welcome to join.)
The march is being held in support of something called "The Stache Act," which aims to earn a $250 annual tax deduction for every mustached American for expenditures on grooming supplies. Ha!
At its heart, though, the Million Mustache March is an effort to raise money for charity. Sign this petition, and the good folks at H&R Block will make a donation to Millions for One, an organization that provides clean water to people around the world who need it.
Over in Portland, Maine, folks are getting ready for Saturday's inaugural Moustache Film Festival. The fest really does feature a bunch of short flicks about mustaches -- titles include Mustache vs. Goatee and Between the Upper Lip and the Nasal Passageway -- so if you're interested, grab tickets now.
Portland is also hosting a "Stache Pag" tonight where the town's best mustaches will be honored. The events are being sponsored by Progressive Insurance, which now has a mustached character in its ads.
If you attend any of these events, we'd love to hear about them!

In reality there's no need to constantly drink water all day, you're just gonna need to take more bathroom breaks which is slower than stopping for a drink every few hours. I'd love to hear from people who constantly wear them as to why because to me it just doesn't make sense.
Where I usually ride (poconos, PA) the break areas are usually crowded and a pain in the ass to get from the slopes to the tables without wading through a bunch people. Especially when I have to put my board in a rack where it might get stolen or wait in line to check my board at the complementary board check. I HATE down time during the day unless I'm relaxing and eating my lunch for a few minutes. A small pack allows me to carry my water, snacks, a dry pair of socks in case mine get wet for some reason, glove liners, and an extra layer to throw on when it gets cool. My dakine bag is a bit larger and has room for my lunch; this is AWESOME when riding outside of the smaller mountains in PA, like VT or out west. When there are 1000's of acres to ride, you may not be near your locker/car/restaurant when you decide it's time to eat. If you have your lunch with you, you can find the nearest bench or warming hut, throw down your lunch, relax for a minute, and get back in the snow without dropping $10 for a gatorade. In PA, the larger (but still small) bag with my lunch in it prevents me from walking the ~mile or so out to the car and back and saves me time. It's all personal preference, but I can tell you it's DEFINITELY not for style and is very functional.

|If I'm riding off piste I use a ortovox freerider 18, all my avi stuff fits in I carry a 1l hydration pack in it and it has a built in back protector. Great bit of kit.
|I ride with a camelbak charge 10lr and it's on the line of being too big. I never liked riding with any kind of backpack but after every long day I'm thankful I have it. Never have to stop for anything!
With the nipple freezing up all the time... it's annoying. I had a camelback on that does hold a snowboard....
but, I use my more compact one, that i used to use for mountain biking.... and wear it under my jacket.

|Camelbak Zoid but too small to fit much more than a wallet a tool and maybe a neck gaitor. I never used to carry one but in the last year and this winter particularly my dehydration levels have spiked. I now need to drink something at least every hour when I am out boarding and it is a lot of time wasted if I have to go in. However I have a question for regular users. Is it normal practice for lifties to make you remove one arm from the harness when you go up? I have a disfunctional shoulder and find this very hard to manage. My regular hill is mixed on this but I have had at least one embarassing stop the chairlift argument. Headed to Breckenridge next week and wondered what it was like there. The bag is small enough to wear inside a jacket but not without giving me a quasimodo appearance I would rather avoid.
|I use one on occasion, I just don't want too unhook, Wade through people lurking in lodges to get a sip. I could get 2 more runs in by just carrying a little pack. I'm going to try the small flex bottles in the pants leg next time. At least until I bust one.
|Its a physiological thing. I ride better by staying hydrated. Nothing to do with style, I wear mine I side my jacket anyway.

'Marina is a fantastic and inspiring model. She is highly professional with some serious style. Throughout the whole shoot she gave so much for the camera and I can honestly say she is now one of my favourite models to shoot. There is no doubt she will go far as not many models can work the camera like she can. Not only did she inspire, she made the whole shoot run smoothly and the end results are effortlessly beautiful.'

I had shoot with Marina today and to use an overused expression, WOW! Not only did she arrive perfectly on time but came prepared with excellent outfits and accessories, great makeup and worked flat out for 4.5hrs non-stop (this was after a 2 hour drive to get to my studio).
Her posing is so natural and fluid which left me to concentrate on doing my thing. I can't wait to work with you again Marina, but I wouldn't be surprised if there was a waiting list smile
Take care

News and Rumors
News and Rumors
We heard earlier this week that the Pittsburgh Pirates had a scout in attendance to watch A.J. Burnett last week. According to Jim Salisbury of CSN Philly, they're also one of the teams who have been connected to left-handed reliever Antonio Bastardo. Salisbury also mentions the Royals, Tigers, and Blue Jays as other teams who have had scouts watching the reliever.
It seems like all of these teams are watching a lot of players in Philadelphia, and not just one specific person. As far as relievers go, Bastardo seems more appealing than Papelbon. He's only making $2 M and is under control through the 2015 season. Meanwhile, Papelbon is making $13 M a year this year and in 2015, and has a vesting option for $13 M in 2016, which is guaranteed with 55 games finished next year, or 100 between...

Well the point is to show that they went in with a game plan they stuck to it and excited to come out better than expected; once you try and read more than that like the Flames first 3 picks are 100% going to all be in the best 13 players of the draft discussion you are just looking for a reason to rag on him.
Every year we see quite a few guys outside of the first round that should of been a top 15 pick in their year. Should we roast 29 GMs for each of those guys?

Long-Distance Caregiving: Twenty Questions and Answers
Things You Can Do
- Could it help for me to organize Mom's paperwork?
- What information should a family caregiver organize?
- Should I talk with my aging parents about the kind of care they'd like to have in the future?
- How can I find information about financial assistance for my parents who live across the country from me?
- How can my brother and I ensure our aging mother's safety at home?
- How can I keep up with my mom's medical care?
- Evaluating health information online
- How can we make the most of everyone's time during my dad's medical appointment?
Could it help for me to organize Mom's paperwork?
My friends who have been caregivers say that a lot of what they did was to organize paperwork. I'm thinking of taking on that task to help my mother and sisters.
Organizing paperwork is one way that a long-distance caregiver can be a big help. An important part of effective caregiving depends on keeping a great deal of information in order and up to date. Often, long-distance caregivers will need access to a parent's personal, health, financial, and legal records. If you have ever tried to gather and organize your own personal information, you know what a chore it can be.
Getting all this material together is a lot of work at first, and from far away it can seem even more challenging. But once you have gathered everything together, many other caregiving tasks will be easier. Maintaining current information about your parent's health and medical care, as well as finances, home ownership, and other legal issues, lets you get a handle on what is going on and allows you to respond more quickly if there is a crisis.
If you do not see your parent often, one visit may not be enough time for you to get all the paperwork organized. Instead, try to focus on gathering the essentials first; you can fill in the blanks as you go along. You might begin by talking to your parent and his or her primary caregiver about the kinds of records that need to be pulled together. If a primary caregiver is already on the scene, chances are that some of the information has already been assembled. Talk about any missing information or documentation and how you might help to organize the records. It is also a good idea to make sure that all financial matters, including wills and life insurance policies, are in order. It will also help if someone has a durable power of attorney (the legal document naming one person to handle financial and property issues for another).
Your parents may be reluctant to share personal information with you. Explain that you are not trying to invade their privacy or take over their personal lives—you are only trying to assemble what will be needed in the event of an emergency. Assure them that you will respect their privacy, and then keep your promise.
If your parents are still uncomfortable, ask if they would be willing to work with an attorney (some lawyers specialize in elder affairs) or perhaps with another trusted family member or friend. Keep in mind that healthcare providers and health plans are by law not required to share information with a person's family or friends unless they are the patient's personal representatives. For more information, visit www.hhs.gov/hipaa/for-individuals/family-members-friends.
Should I talk with my aging parents about the kind of care they'd like to have in the future?
My parents are in their 70s and haven't said anything about their future healthcare preferences. Since they are still relatively healthy, do we need to talk about that now?
For most of us, it is hard to talk with others about the kind of medical care they'd want if seriously ill and unable to make decisions on their own. But, when the conversation is with someone close to you, it can be many times harder for everyone. Yet, it's important to be prepared, especially in case of unexpected illness.
As a long-distance caregiver, you might want to wait until you are face to face with your parents, rather than try to handle this sensitive subject on the phone. During a visit, you could try saying that you have just made your living will, or you could tell them you've chosen someone to make your healthcare decisions. A friend or neighbor's illness might also jumpstart a conversation about healthcare preferences.
For some families, a conversation about, for example, who would like Grandma's china could be a gentle way to start the discussion. Would you rather begin on a less personal note? Discussing a topical TV show, newspaper article, or movie might be the way to start.
When talking about medical care, assure your parents that as long as they are alert, they will be the ones to make decisions. But documenting their healthcare wishes is important. Healthcare providers can't know your parents' preferences unless they are included in their medical records.
Having these wishes on the record allows your parents to receive the care they want. It may also help avoid some of the conflicts that can occur when family members disagree over treatment decisions.
Advance care planning is often done through an advance directive, which includes verbal and written instructions about future medical care. There are two types of advance directives—a living will and a durable power of attorney for health care.
A living will states in writing what kinds of life-sustaining medical treatments, if any, a person wants if he or she is unable to speak or respond and at risk of dying.
A durable power of attorney for health care names someone to make medical decisions in that same type of situation. This person, called a healthcare proxy, can decide on care based on what he or she knows the patient would want. It is vital for your parents to discuss their wishes with the healthcare proxy.
Naming a healthcare proxy is an extremely important decision. Living nearby is not a requirement to be a healthcare proxy, also called "healthcare agent" or "surrogate." Even a long-distance caregiver can be one. Most people ask a close friend or family member to be their healthcare proxy. Some people turn to a trusted member of the clergy or a lawyer. The person chosen should be able to understand the treatment choices, know your parents' values, and support their decisions.
Advance directives are not set in stone. You might want to let your parents know that they can revise and update their instructions as often as they wish. Patients and caregivers should discuss these decisions—and any changes in them—and keep the healthcare team informed. Consider giving copies of advance directives to all caregivers and to your brothers and sisters. Keep a copy at home as well. Because state laws vary, check with your Area Agency on Aging, your state department of aging, or a lawyer for more information about advance directives.
How can I find information about financial assistance for my parents who live across the country from me?
My parents saved money for retirement, but the cost of their medical care is really high, and they are worried.
You and your parents are not alone in worrying about healthcare costs. These expenses can use up a significant part of monthly income, even for families who thought they had saved enough. Your parents may be eligible for some healthcare benefits. As a long-distance caregiver, one way you can be helpful is by learning more about possible sources of financial help and then assisting your parents in applying for aid as appropriate. The internet can be a helpful tool in this search.
There are several federal and state programs that provide help with healthcare-related costs.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the federal agency responsible for Medicare, offers several programs. Over time, the benefits and eligibility requirements of these programs can change and they differ from state to state, so it is best to check with CMS, www.cms.gov, or the individual programs directly for the most recent information.
People on fixed incomes who have limited resources may qualify for Medicaid, www.medicaid.gov. This program covers the costs of medical care for people of all ages who have limited income and meet other eligibility requirements.
Under Medicare, some states have PACE, Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly, www.pace4you.org. This program provides care and services to people who otherwise would need care in a nursing home.
SHIP, the State Health Insurance Assistance Program, www.medicare.gov/contacts, offers counseling and assistance to people and their families on Medicare, Medicaid, and Medicare supplemental insurance (Medigap) matters.
If your parent is eligible for veterans benefits, remember to check with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), www.va.gov. Or, get in touch with the VA medical center nearest you.
For more information about federal, state, and local government benefits, go to www.benefits.gov. If you don't have a computer, call 1-800-FED-INFO (1-800-333-4636).
The National Council on Aging website, www.benefitscheckup.org, is another good place to start. By providing some general information about your parent, you can see a list of possible benefits you might want to explore. You don't have to give a name, address, or Social Security number in order to use this service.
If your family member's prescription medicines cost too much, ask the doctor if there is a less expensive medication or a generic choice. Learn more about Medicare insurance for prescription drugs at www.medicare.gov/part-d, or call Medicare or your state SHIP. Also, the Partnership for Prescription Assistance, www.pparx.org, can provide a list of patient assistance programs supported by pharmaceutical companies.
How can my brother and I ensure our aging mother's safety at home?
This year, my wife and I decided to spend our vacation with my mom at her house. My brother and his partner will also be there. We'd like to see how we can make things safer for Mom, who is a little frail.
You can't anticipate every problem, but go through the house room by room and check. Some things will need to be taken care of right away. Pay careful attention to your mom—especially her safety and overall health, and how well she manages in her home. For example:
- If your mom is still driving, can you assess her road skills?
- How is your mom's health? Is she taking several medicines? If so, could the pills be better organized?
- What about her mood? Does your mom seem depressed or anxious?
If you feel that your mother is unsafe alone because of her health, make note of which behaviors or activities have become most dangerous and discuss these with her primary caregiver, if there is one, and her doctor. This is one way a long-distance caregiver can be helpful. Remember, you will need your mother's permission to discuss her health with the doctor.
You can provide a fresh look when evaluating the situation. Behavior that is unsafe or unhealthy may have become familiar to the primary caregiver. Discuss your concerns and offer to help adapt the environment to meet your parent's changing safety needs.
There are a variety of things you can do that will make your mom's surroundings safer, more accessible, and more comfortable. First, quickly correct any real dangers. Once the urgent issues are addressed, you and your brother can start working on other ways to make sure your mom will be out of harm's way. Use these home safety suggestions as a starting point:
- Are the stairs manageable, or is a ramp needed?
- Are there any tripping hazards at exterior entrances or inside the house (throw rugs, for example)?
- Are any repairs needed?
- Is the house well lit, inside and out? Do any bulbs need to be replaced?
- Is there at least one stairway handrail that extends beyond the first and last steps on each flight of stairs?
- Is there carpeting or safety grip strips on stairs?
- Is there clutter, which can cause disorientation and confusion and increase the risk of falling?
- Are all walk areas free of furniture and extension and electrical cords?
- If a walker or wheelchair is needed, can the house be modified—perhaps put in a ramp to the front door?
- Is there food in the fridge? Is any of it spoiled? Are there staple foods (such as cereal, sugar, canned soup) in the cabinets?
- Are bills being paid? Is mail piling up?
It is sometimes easier to change a place than to change a person. For someone like Rhea, who is helping her mom make the house safer for her dad to live comfortably in spite of his memory problems, some steps include:
- Talking with her mom about ways to remember to lock all doors and windows to prevent her dad from wandering.
- Making sure all potentially harmful items, such as medications, weapons, machinery, or electrical cords are put away in a safe, preferably locked place when they're not in use.
- Using child-resistant caps on medicine bottles, childproof latches on cabinets, and childproof plugs in unused outlets.
How can I keep up with my mom's medical care?
I don't know where to start.
Healthcare experts recommend that you start by learning as much as you can about your parent's illness, its likely course, and current treatments. This information will be essential as you help your parent and the primary caregiver cope with day-to-day concerns, make decisions, and plan for the future. You can do this by discussing your mom's diagnosis with your own healthcare provider or gathering reliable health information.
Contacting a government agency, like the National Institutes of Health (NIH), or visiting its MedlinePlus website, is a good way to find information you can trust.
When you visit your parent, consider going along on a doctor's appointment—first check that your parent does not mind having you there. You must have your parent's permission to have any conversation with his or her doctor or to discuss healthcare bills with Medicare or other health insurance. Ask your parent to complete the required privacy release form so the doctor can discuss his/her medical care with you. Be sure the release is up to date and that there's a copy in your parent's medical records, in addition to keeping a backup copy for your files.
Some long-distance caregivers say that making a separate doctor's appointment lets them seek more detailed information and answers to questions. You will need your parent's written permission. You might have to pay for these appointments yourself. Or, see if the doctor will agree to provide email or telephone updates to you or other family members who live out of town.
How can we make the most of everyone's time during my dad's medical appointment?
I'm visiting my dad for a week, and he asked me to come to his medical appointment. I want to make the most of this visit.
If you go with your parent to see the doctor, here are a few tips that will help you be an ally and an advocate:
- Bring a list of questions, starting with what is most important to you and your parent, and take notes on what the doctor recommends. Both the questions and the notes you write down can be helpful later, either to give information to the primary caregiver or to remind your parent what the doctor said.
- Before the appointment, ask your parent, the primary caregiver, and your siblings if they have any questions or concerns they would like you to bring up.
- Bring a list of ALL medicines and dietary supplements your parent is taking, both prescription and over-the-counter, and include the dosage and schedule. If your parent sees several different doctors, one may not necessarily know what another has prescribed.
- When the doctor asks a question, let your parent answer unless you have been asked to do so.
- It's easy to get into a two-way conversation between the doctor and yourself—try not to do this. Always include both your parent and the doctor when you talk.
- Respect your parent's privacy, and leave the room when necessary.
- Talk to the doctor about how you can keep up to date on your parent's health since you live out of town.
- Ask the doctor to recommend helpful community resources.
- Larger medical practices, hospitals, and nursing homes may have a social worker on staff. The social worker may have valuable suggestions about community resources and other information.
If you are worried that your parent might be depressed, you might want to discuss this with the doctor before the appointment. Depression is not a normal part of aging. Emotions like sadness, grief, and temporary "blue" moods are normal, but continuing depression that interferes with daily living is not okay.
Even some health professionals seem to think depression is a normal response to the illnesses and other problems that can happen as we grow older. Make sure the doctor is taking action in response to your concerns.

For any action to occur, there must be an event that triggers the action. You have already named the onclick event, but there are other events like onBlur, onChange, onLoad, onSubmit etc. that can be used as a trigger. These events can only be client side events.
2. Re: jquery helpfuture-architect Feb 28, 2012 7:26 AM (in response to BenPleysier)
I was looking at these events, but I didn't see any that apply to my scenario. here is what i was thinking....
user submits form
php picks it up, validates, and if the task is done successfully (i.e. updating fields in a db, sending an e-mail), calls on jquery to fade in the success image.
3. Re: jquery helpBenPleysier Feb 28, 2012 7:51 AM (in response to future-architect)
Yes, that can be done.
// if form submitted execute code to process the data
// javascript to hide form and fade in image
// end if

sorry, new to javascript/jquery, and not sure how to fade in image/fade out form on the spot. i can do it on a button click though!
thought you had to do it in the head. tried including <script> code b/w php tags, but it doesn't seem to work. i thought you would be able to call the method, by doing something like this: echo ("<script>initImage();</script>");
5. Re: jquery helpNancy OShea Feb 29, 2012 11:34 AM (in response to future-architect)
Put your success page url into the PHP script.
Then use jQuery on the success page.

I did find http://www.swissrifles.com/vetterli/ which had more on the rifle and the round though.
Where can one find new production 10.4x38 Vetterli ammo?
Nothing worthwhile ever comes easily.
I did find http://www.swissrifles.com/vetterli/ which had more on the rifle and the round though.
I did a little looking to zip you my have to make your own.
This is the realm of the hand loader or for the more financially endowed a custom loader. There are many custom loaders out there for this one, ranging from pricy to holy @$#%! If you want a few blasting rounds just to get the olâgirl on the range, using a custom loader is cheaper than getting the hand loading supplies together. One of the least expensive is Gads http://gadcustomcartridges.com/ . His ammo are no beauty queens in fancy packing and often arrive covered in lube that has melted off the bullets (shipping in cold weather helps). However they chamber, go bang and generally group well, leaving you empty brass that he will refill for a price or you can save for the day you handload.
When dealing with Gads or just about any other custom loader I highly recommend using the telephone and not e-mail. These are small operations of one or two people and most offer a variety of loading options (such as BP vs. smokeless) best sorted out in a two way conversation.
If you wish to hand load reasonably priced dies are sometimes obtainable through group buys that occur from time to time sponsored by members of the boards that cater to these rifles or for about twice the price, dies are available from CH-4D. To me it is worth the price to set up to handload this and similar obsolete cartridges because I shoot them a lot. However the cost can add up in a hurry.
Rich in West Virginia, savoring life one cartridge at a time.
Is this the 10.4mm Italian service round? I think I have a box of non-corrosive Fiocchi FMJ I bought in a lump box buy at a auction two years ago. I have no need for it. It has some light spot corrosion on one or two cases but it is tiny and limited in number. Getting it to you might be a pain but ....
Vetterli ammo (both Swiss and Italian) has not been loaded commercially since the WWII era.
You will run across loose rounds in small numbers at gun shows all the time, and they will set you back at least $5 each.
Full boxes of Remington and Dominion will set you back at least $100.
If you want to shoot the rifle, you will have to make your own ammo or buy custom made ammo.
Are you looking for rimfire or centerfire?
On the Swiss Vetterli the underlying assumption is that it has been converted to centerfire, which is extrememly easy to do or relatively inexpensive to have done for you. Unforntunately none of the manufacturers have made a run of .41 Swiss rimfire in some 40+ years and this is strictly not a do it yourself matter. It hasn't stopped some from trying, but priming compounds are not to be trivaled with and more than a few have learned this the hard way. Even the Peabodies that shoot this round can be converted to centerfire (albeit a tad harder).
Rich in West Virginia, savoring life one cartridge at a time.
Gad's is a two man operation, we just had our vetterli converted to center-fire by him and his companion. We sent it to him in November.
He cashed the check immediately. He told us then that his partner will "get around to it" because "he is an older gentleman who cannot be told to do anything" as said by Gad's himself aka Bernold.
This vetterli is 100% matching. We sent the bolt out to him, and ordered 100 rounds of ammo from him. Well, when we received the bolt and ammo from him, the bolt was all kinds of messed up. Looks like when he went to drill out the face of the bolt it slid in the vice, left gashes all in the bolt body, and gouges at the locking lug sections. I didn't bother taking the extractor off because he never instructed us it was nessisary, so he insisted us we never sent it to him with it in the first place. He had to locate another one(which worked but didnt have a seriel on it) The ammo he made seems to be iffy at best, none of the cases were cut square. So accuracy shall be hard to find. I would have done this myself if I had the drill press. But next time I buy the ammo, I shall make it myself, or buy from someone else...btw, he did include a new rimfire pin, I guess it was to replace the extractor
Talking on the phone to him is impossible when all he does is mumble in the phone,I'm good at understanding different accents, but his HEAVY accent, plus his deep mumble, was close to impossible to understand. His emails are poorly typed(if you get one back from him, which was rare for me)
So yeah, first post here on this board, I'm a good member of the surplusrifleforum.com, just never got around to signing up here.
