Liverpool is still six points behind EPL leader Chelsea and trails Lyon and Fiorentina in its Champions League group, but the Reds got a boost with their win over United without Liverpool's injured star Steven Gerrard.
"We needed to win for the confidence, so I think it will be a big boost for the team," Benitez said. "All the players didn't want to lose. They wanted to show character and this was the perfect response. It was against a good team so the fans are delighted and then you can see all the players feel the same way. It has to be positive. Hopefully this will be a turning point. If we can keep the momentum I am sure we have a good team and can win some games in a row."
Even without Gerrard, Liverpool won the game in midfield, where Javier Mascherano, Lucas and Fabio Aurelio were outstanding.
Like Gerrard, Spaniard Fernando Torres has been battling a groin injury, but he celebrated his return with a well-taken goal to give Liverpool the lead in the 65th minute.
David Ngog added an insurance goal late in the game after Nemanja Vidic (red card for a professional foul on Dirk Kuyt) and Mascherano (second yellow card) has been sent off, reducing both teams to 10 players.
The loss was United's first this season in all competitions.
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson admitted his team had been outplayed but he was confident his players will bounce back.
"Last year we lost 4-1 at home to Liverpool, got hold of the bit again and went on to win the league and that is our challenge," he said.

A liberal coalition of 65 parties claimed to have taken an early lead in Libya's first elections last night following the overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi's regime, as preliminary vote counts started coming in from across the country.
The country's post-revolutionary administration and its Western sponsors declared the holding of the polls as a triumph of democracy. US President Barack Obama said in a statement: "The United States is proud of the role that we played in supporting the Libyan revolution and protecting the Libyan people, and we look forward to working closely with the new Libya."
There was violence in the east of the country, with polling stations attacked and ballot papers and boxes destroyed in Benghazi, Ras Lanuf, Ajdabiya, Brega and Tobruk. However, some of the centres were later reopened for voting and in the rest of the country polling took place relatively unhindered.
Opponents of the election in the east, where the uprising began last year, want a federal structure with a large degree of autonomy for regions. This would leave Benghazi and its hinterland, where much of the country's oil wealth is located, in a position of influence and power.
The election commission refused to endorse the declaration of gains by the liberal coalition led by Mahmoud Jibril. The commission's head, Nouri al-Abar, said: "We are all waiting and we have nothing to suggest that one party is ahead of others."
However, two Islamist parties, the Muslim Brotherhood's Justice and Construction Party and Al-Watan, in which Abdul Hakim Belhaj, a former guerrilla fighter who is suing the UK Government for its part in his rendition, is a leading figure, acknowledged that their own polling showed Mr Jibril's coalition was in the lead.

Lorna Doone (Penguin Classics) (original 1869; edition 2005)
by R. D. Blackmore, Robert Madison (Contributor), Michelle Allen (Editor), Michelle Allen (Introduction)
Work details
Lorna Doone by R. D. Blackmore (1869)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I read this book because I loved the movie version that A and E showed starring Richard Coyle and Amelia Warner. I liked the story version too, but not as much as the movie (for once). My main disappointment with the book version was that R.D. Blackmore went on and on about meaningless events, but rushed through the important events. I would have liked more detail about the Doones vs. the Ridds. I didn't need as much detail about John Fry following Uncle Reuben through the forest. Especially since John Fry never even found out where Uncle Reuben was going. Of course, the main storyline was wonderful and I enjoyed the read even though it dragged on at times.
A good historical fiction, but too long with many battle scenes and little dialogue throughout the book. Much archaic language or dialect; not sure which! Precursor of the Hatfields and McCoys!
3.5 ★
Lorna Doone (A Romance of Exmoor) is a novel by English author Richard Doddridge Blackmore, ((1825-1900),
Published in 1869, it is set in the 17th century...
Lorna Doone is not historical fiction; but, we are given an adequate societal snapshot.
It is a romance , with emphasis on traditional Victorian values, albeit unusual circumstances.
There are sensational moments peppered through out the story.
And, (just what I needed), there is a happy ending.
Lorna Doone is a rather complicated love story that keeps your interested from the beginning to the end.
Overall I liked this book but I found the phonetic spelling for Somerset accents to be really challenging as I don't know the accent very well. Because of that I did find myself put the book down and reading a different book or two before being called back into the book.
If your into classic English books then I would suggest this, just don't expect to have an easy read.
This is one of those books that needs a re-make for children and hopefully then it would be able to make the cut. What makes this particular type of book so dull and irritating is that unless you don't mind not knowing what you are reading then you will need to be glued to a dictionary that has the archaic meanings from the English language.
The characters aren't that strongly developed although there is a small depth to them than some others. Basically you are given a character stereotype for that particular creature while a bit of this or that may be thrown in along the way. And it seems that the worse of the traits are the ones that are worked upon the most.
There is plenty of action when the story decides to provide it but otherwise it is a slow plodding along of the story. Basically if you enjoy Classics this may be a book to please you, especially if you are into older works....
[This review relates to the Naxos unabridged audiobook version, ISBN 9781843793618]
Its audio form releases the language from the page thanks to Jonathan Keeble, an extraordinarily skilled voice actor who takes on the archaic Devon accent as though born to it - which, as a native of the region, he was. The novel's quietly droll passages and paeans to nature are greatly enhanced by his country aplomb.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0143039326, Paperback)
First published in 1869, Lorna Doone is the story of John Ridd, a farmer who finds love amid the religious and social turmoil of seventeenth-century England. He is just a boy when his father is slain by the Doones, a lawless clan inhabiting wild Exmoor on the border of Somerset and Devon. Seized by curiosity and a sense of adventure, he makes his way to the valley of the Doones, where he is discovered by the beautiful Lorna. In time their childish fantasies blossom into mature love—a bond that will inspire John to rescue his beloved from the ravages of a stormy winter, rekindling a conflict with his archrival, Carver Doone, that climaxes in heartrending violence. Beloved for its portrait of star-crossed lovers and its surpassing descriptions of the English countryside, Lorna Doone is R. D. Blackmore's enduring masterpiece.
First time in Penguin Classics
Since its publication in 1869, Lorna Doone has never been out of print
Features explanatory notes, a list of suggestions for further reading, a dictionary of Dorset dialect, and a map of Doone Valley
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:14:23 -0400)
"The words "Lorna Doone" are familiar to all readers of English literature. In 1869 Richard Doddridge Blackmore published his romance of Exmoor and saw it become one of the most beloved stories of the century." "In Lorna Doone Blackmore invented a unique narrative voice in the homely John Ridd, a dramatic love story with the mysterious Lorna of the outlaw Doones, and a magnificent setting in the descriptions of Devon and Somerset. This Penguin Classics edition returns to the first edition text, largely unavailable for over a hundred years, while including all of Blackmore's prefaces. Robert Madison introduces Lorna Doone in the context of Blackmore's life and works, while Michelle Allen closely analyzes the revisions of his most enduring book. The editors have included a glossary of West Country dialect by Blackmore's contemporary William Barnes."--BOOK JACKET.… (more)

Word of the Day, February 13, 2014
" My hope is in You, Lord . All the day long . I won't be shaken by drought or storm. A peace that passes understanding is my song . And I sing . My hope is in You, Lord "
[B]Proverbs 1:7
7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.[/B]
The last few days, the Word of the Day has been about fear of the LORD. First, we should have fear of the LORD for evil ways, pride, arrogancy, and a froward mouth. Yesterdays was about fearing of the LORD tendeth to life and provides satisfaction. Today, the fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge.
The fear should be of obedience and reverence to God. Fools are an example of instruction and wisdom from God despised. Fools have no spiritual knowledge. Maybe worldly knowledge, but that will do nothing for our souls. We need submission to our LORD and His revelation. As humans, if we are afraid of someone, we either run from it or submit to them. The fear spoken about here is a healthy fear.
As we acquire wisdom, instructions, knowledge and understanding, our fear of the LORD should become the foundation of wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Wisdom is described in Proverbs as a way to skillfully live our lives successfully. Instruction refers to moral discipline in our lives and understanding is the capability to distinguish between true and false, good or bad, what really matters and what does not matter in the realm of our lives.
Most wicked people are trying to keep us from true wisdom. They say that the Bible is not real, does not apply to today's world, churches are money grabbers only, there is no hell, Jesus was not really Christ, but a prophet. We need to have earthly wisdom, instruction, knowledge and understanding, but to be sure, we need the fear of the LORD for wise counsel. Foolishness leads to destruction. Seek His wisdom today as you pray and read His word.
" And all the people said Amen! And all the people said Amen! Give thanks to the Lord for His love never ends. At the top of your lungs sing it with me again, and all the people said Amen! "
Timothy Furness

AbstractWe propose to develop "High Performance, Large Format Mid-Wave Focal Plane Arrays on Type II Strained Layer Superlattice (SLS) Material". The Innovative Features of the project are: • Detector Arrays on Type II SLS Material. High Performance Detector Arrays are designed on Type II SLS material. The Type II Detector has several advantages as compared to Type I HgCdTe and InSb Detectors. The advantages are: 1) higher performance due to longer minority carrier lifetime, 2) higher operating temperature due to low dark current, 3) wide range of spectral bands (SWIR, MWIR, LWIR, VLWIR), 4) very fast time response and 5) lower cost due to higher array uniformity and low cost large area substrate. • Large Format MWIR FPA. 1024 x 10-24 element focal plane array with pixel size = 19.5 um x 19.5 um are designed for MWIR (3-5 um) waveband. The 1024 x 1024 element detector array is integrated with an existing ROIC with snapshot integration capability. • High Reliability Passivation Scheme. The detector array is fabricated with high reliability radiation-hard passivation scheme. • High Operating Temperature. The focal plane array can be operated at Uncooled (300K), thermo-electrically (T.E.) cooled (160K-250K) and cryogenic cooled (77K) temperature levels. • Cost-Effective Product Development. The proposed product can be developed cost-effectively with reduced risk due to: 1) feasibility of fabricating of high performance, high temperature MWIR SLS detectors have already been demonstrated during Phase I of the contract, 2) snap-shot 1024 x 1024 element ROICs have already been developed and are available on the commercial market, 3) ADT is presently developing SLS products under an on-going Army/SMDC contract for a BAA solicitation. Several of the tasks that are being conducted under this contact are directly applicable to the proposed project. During Phase II, 1024 x 1024 Element Focal Plane Array will be fabricated on SLS material for MWIR (3-5 um) waveband. The Focal Plane Array will be integrated into a Dewar/Cooler Assembly and delivered to NAVAIR. During Phase III, FPA/Dewar/Cooler Assembly will be integrated into Navy's LITENING Pod. An additional FPA/Dewar/Cooler Assembly will be fabricated for Navy's ATFLIR Pod, as an option. Also during Phase III, the following task will be completed: 1) Integration of 1024 x1024 element FPA/Dewar assembly into Navy Systems and demonstration of improved targeting capability, 2) Development of Dual Band (MWIR/LWIR) FPAs and 3) Integration of Dual Band FPA/Dewar Assembly in Navy Systems.

Public Speaks at Millage Rate Hearing
Prior to the vote on the millage rate increase, the public had its say one more time and the third and final public hearing on the proposed tax hike.
During the public hearing, more than 15 people stood up and spoke to commissioners, opposing the millage rate hike.
Bobby Thomas said taxpayers should not have to shoulder the burden of additional taxes and calls on the county to cut its budget.
"These departments … they are going to have to reach back and do some cuts," said Thomas. "It does not need to be put on the citizens."
Some of those opposed to the millage rate increase questioned the need to fund the Stephens County Development Authority or called for cuts to agencies like the Senior Center.
Others, like Ed Mills, said a millage rate increase will hurt the local economy and prevent job growth needed in the community.
"In 2013, the Department of Commerce predicted that Stephens County would have zero growth for the next 40 years," said Mills. "With the tax increases we are going to be burdened with, that is not going to be a prediction. That is going to be a fact."
Meanwhile, Tim Hale called on commissioners to restore one of the budget cuts made in last week's called meeting held in an effort to cut the budget and reduce the millage rate.
Hale, who said he was representing the Citizens Advisory Panel on Litter and Blight and Keep Toccoa-Stephens County Beautiful, called on commissioners not to get rid of the state inmate litter pick-up crew.
He said that crew provides an important service to the county.
"Time and again, litter and blight abatement has been identified as a highly significant barrier to economic growth and to the well-being of Stephens County," said Hale, who added commissioners have repeatedly accepted this conclusion.
Other speakers Tuesday called on commissioners to find ways to expand the county's tax base.

PEs offload $1.79 bn stakes in April-June qrtr: PWC
In the second quarter of 2012, there were 26 exits worth USD 321 million.
New Delhi: Private equity players offloaded stakes worth USD 1.79 billion in the second quarter of this calendar year, registering a five-fold growth from the year-ago period.
According to a research note from PwC, in the April-June period, PE exits were valued at USD 1,782 million through 30 deals, a more than five-fold growth in value and an increase of 15 percent in terms of volume over the corresponding period last year.
In the second quarter of 2012, there were 26 exits worth USD 321 million.
PE firms generate returns and realise investments in a company through 'exits' using options like an initial public offering, a trade sale, selling to another private equity firm or a company buy-back.
On quarter-on-quarter basis, the exit activity in this quarter has doubled. In the April-June period, there were PE exits worth USD 1,782 million from 30 deals as compared to USD 884 million USD from 29 deals in Q1 2013.
The majority of the exits in this quarter came from the IT and ITeS and manufacturing sectors which together contributed around 57 percent of the total exit value and 53 percent of the total volume, the PwC report said.
With 10 deals worth USD 539 million, the IT and ITeS sector topped the list of PE exits in terms of value, followed by the manufacturing sector, which witnessed an exit of USD 472 million from six deals.
The energy, education, engineering and construction sectors also witnessed a spurt in the exit value in the April-June quarter, PwC said.
However, the BFSI sector witnessed an 18 percent drop in the exit value along with a 50 percent drop in the volume, from USD 391 million (six deals) in Q1 2013 to USD 322 million (three deals) in Q2 2013.
The preferred modes of exits in Q2 2013 were through public market sale (nine exits) and strategic sale (seven exits). The other modes were secondary sale (six exits), buyback (six exits) and two exits through IPO.
In Q2 2013, secondary sale fetched the highest exit value, worth USD 798 million (about 45 percent of the total exit value), PwC said.

Glad to hear you are doing so well!
I too am alive and kicking! My last ct was in April and cancer free.
Take care!
Hi Kris,
Sorry to see you have been in and out of the hospital but so glad to hear you are out. Hang in there .
Oh indeed it did, Gavin. I had another one today!
So, I am a little early. My 5 year anniversary will be on 5-5. I moved my scan up a few weeks because I might take a new job.
But anyway, I was diagnosed with IHCC on 5-5-11, had a resection, R0, chemo and radiation and had my 5 yr scan today. I had the report released and it is negative for disease as far as I can tell. I see the onc on wednesday so will review it then.
The bad news is my ca 19-9 went from 11 to 33, which is still normal but concerning to me. So, this was supposed to be my last scan but we will see what the onc says.
But either way I am thankful for the good report, thankful to God for my life and thankful for all of you who have supported me through the years.
Take care everyone!
Good to hear. Especially since I just ate a brownie.
I'm a nurse. I've seen that happen. Glad it's taken care of!
take care,
Best wishes for a good ct scan, Kris.
Take care,
Hi Cait,
I haven't logged in in forever but I just happened to and I saw your post. You are similar to me in many ways.
I was diagnosed at 31 with Intrahepatic CC. about a 5cm mass. I had abdominal pain after eating too much pizza and it sent me to the ER.
I was lucky enough to have surgery right away followed by chemo and radiation.
I just had my 4.5 yr check up with my oncologist on Monday. I didn't have a scan as I am now on yearly scans and the next one is in May. I did have my tumor marker checked and it was 11.5, down from 15 which is normal, so I was happy about that. My last scan at 4 yrs showed no cancer.
It was really tough getting hit with this at such a young age. I was trying to have kids at the time of diagnosis so I know all about the fertility issues. I did meet with a fertility specialist and chose not to freeze my eggs as I did not want to delay chemo. Very long story short, but I know I still ovulate despite all my treatment.
I really wish you the best. Please feel free to read my posts or message me directly with any questions. You will find a great support system here.
And to the rest of my CC friends...Hello!!!!!!!!! I've missed you all and hope you are all well and had a fabulous Thanksgiving! I just got back from the Florida keys. My sister got married!!
Take care!
Great Randi!! Congratulations!!
It is weird, trying to let go of cancer. I still think about it every day as well but not every second of every day like I used to. I also don't cry as much. I think I cried every day for a year when I got diagnosed.
Take care,
Katrina, it was Gem/Cis and then I took Xeloda with radiation.
What do you mean do many people get help with chemo/radiation? Like financial assistance?
Take care,
I was diagnosed in May 2011 with a 5cm intrahepatic CC. I underwent resection, 6 cycles of chemo and chemo radiation. This week I had my 4 year post op scan and am excited to say that it was clean. The ironic part was my ct scan was actually denied by my insurance company saying it was not necessary as they only recommend scanning for 2 yrs for cholangiocardinoma. So I had to pay out of pocket and am hoping to get reimbursed. How ridiculous, but I won't complain too hard since it was a clean scan and I know how very fortunate I am to be here today.
I read the board very often but I don't post as often as I used to.
I am doing well. I am becoming pleasantly plump! I am about 128lbs compared to the 105lbs I was during treatment. I am very active and feel very healthy.
I will share that in January I was actually pregnant, however I miscarried pretty much right away but it was nice just to be pregnant for a bit at least.
So my oncologist said I will get blood work in 6 months and another scan in 1 yr. She said I can have kids if I want.
People are probably wondering if I do any alternative treatments. (I know I also wondered what others were doing) I take tumeric, fish oil, probiotics and vitamin D. But other than that I have a very normal diet, meaning today I had pizza and ice cream but yesterday it was a green smoothie. I try to live a very normal life.
Feel free to ask any questions and thanks for listening as always. I hope and pray you all are well.
Take care,
Thanks for sharing, Gavin!!
Take care,
That is a crazy picture. Thanks for sharing!
Best wishes on the upcoming scan. I think it is very, very normal to get nervous around scan time. I have my next scan in May. That will be the 4 yr post resection scan for me.
I still think about CC every single day but not all day every day like I used to. I still get nervous around testing time and every time I feel anything weird happening in my abdomen. I am accepting these feelings as the new normal. I think that is all one can do.
I will be praying for you.
Take care,
I'm so sorry to hear of the uncertainty. That can be so frustrating.
I don't really know what should be done but I think it sounds like your Dr's have a reasonable plan. Please keep us posted .
Take care,
I think they would have preferred if I got radiation right after surgery and then got chemo. But I had already started my chemo before it was recommended I get radiation. So I did 3 cycles of chemo, radiation, and then the remaining 3 cycles of chemo.
I had no lymph node involvement. My last MRI was in May and it did not show signs of disease.
take care!
Hi. I had I resection 3.5 years ago. I received adjuvant chemo and radiation.
Radiation was recommended for me because I had a very close surgical margin.
However, they wanted to do the radiation soon after surgery. I was actually started on chemo and I received 3 cycles, then got radiation along with an oral chemo, and then finished the other 3 cycles of my iv chemo.
So, I think they like to perform radiation soon after the surgery. I'm not sure with her being a year out if they would recommend it but that is always something you can discuss with her Dr's.
I did get 3 opinions on the radiation and that's exactly what I got, 3 very different opinions. Some recommend it and some don't.
take care and good luck!
Congratulations, Lainy!!! So glad to hear it.
Take care,
Hi Porter. I have only ever had one PET. It was right after my surgery. My situation was kind of backwards. I had surgery first for a tumor that the Dr's did not think was cancerous. Then after surgery when they found it was cancer, I was worked up for a primary.
How big are the spots? I would ask if they are big enough to light up on PET. I'm sure if they were concerned about them they would order a biopsy. But you could ask about that as well.
Take care,
Great news and thanks for sharing!!
Great news!!
Yay!!! Great news!
Well said Marion!!

Congrats on your GP-100. Mine (4" blued version) serves as a nightstand home defensive weapon. Looking forward to your range report. Your wife has excellent taste in .357 Magnum wheel guns.
GP-100 Revolver
Christmas came early this year, courtesy of my wife, in the guise of a brand new Ruger GP-100. Herein are my observations and opinions regarding the same.
As it sat in the box it was shod in a one-piece rubber grip with finger grooves which I despise. Im sure that finger grooves work for some folk, but I aint one of em. Because of my small hands the grooves tend to lock my grip with the muzzle pointing a bit left of where I think the point of aim should be, requiring some adjustment to actually get on target. Fortunately the boys at the gunshop were more than happy to swap out the grooved grip for a smooth one with inserts from another, used, GP in the case. Ahhhh, much better! It still feesl a bit fat in the backstrap for me, but a little practice has me throwing the gun up with sights fairly well lined up. Itll do until I get round to making a custom wood grip that fits me.
Cosmetically I got no whines. The satin brushed finish on the stainless shouldnt flash in bright sun, but for preference I wish it was duller, kind of like the Taurus revolvers. While Im a traditionalist and mostly choose blued steel guns it is almost de rigeur out here in the Pacific Northwest to go stainless if you spend a lot of time out in the slop, which I do. The 6" barrel has a full length under-lug which adds beef to the piece at 2# 12oz unloaded, but it should help moderate muzzle flip with full-on magnum loads. The replaceable front sight is a plus, and when I get around to it will swap out the stocker for something with an orange insert. Until then a little yellow paint on the ramp improves sight acquisition.
I had looked at Taurus revolvers previous to this purchase but was unimpressed with the action. The Taurus wheelguns tend to a very light and smooth double-action pull, and the single-action pull was so light and mushy I was concerned about unintended touch-offs. Not so with the Ruger. Double-action pull is smooth and feels a bit lighter than my Smith&Wesson 38. Single-action is also lighter than my 38 and is nicely crisp with only a hint of slack. I wouldnt mess with this stock set-up by trying to give it a trigger job, it dont need it.
Field stripping, while easy in intent, turned out to be a little harder in practice. The grip, mainspring, then hammer, all came out of the frame no problem. The disassembly latch on the trigger group however was very tight and required a bit of muscle to push in. I DO NOT RECOMMEND that you use the mainspring strut to push in the latch as stated in the manual. If you have a tight latch youll just bugger up the ball end of the strut. It took a few tries to get the latch pushed in, but when successful the trigger group pivoted down and out very nicely. Inspection showed a few burrs left over from milling operations that needed attention from a jewelers file, followed by a light sanding with some 400 grit paper.
With everything looked at and de-burred I went to throw the trigger group back in. A couple notes here. With the gun upside down you may need to push in on the cylinder latch to ensure that the transfer bar doesnt get hung up on the latch. Also, the transfer bar can get hung up on the milled recess for the hand in the right side of the frame. So, if you cant quite get the trigger group to go in, odds are the transfer bar is hung up. The only other issue I had in reassembly was, of course, the trigger group latch. That needed a little push to get it started in its tunnel before the trigger group would finish swinging up into place and locking. I figger thatll break in over time and several cleanings to where things will just pop in & out like theyre supposed to. One other note here, the gun was pretty dry as it came and rapidly developed a squeak on cocking so field stripping & lube should be done on a new one before playing with it overmuch.
Overall Im liking the thing. Cant wait to get up to my buddys and blow stuff up with it! The plan is to get dialed in with some 38 +P ammo which should make her decently accurate no matter what I feed her, target rounds to full-on mags, which is why I bought it. Ill post again after I get some trigger time with it.

Congrats on your GP-100. Mine (4" blued version) serves as a nightstand home defensive weapon. Looking forward to your range report. Your wife has excellent taste in .357 Magnum wheel guns.
i have had mine since the late 90's (SS 4") tough as nails last a lifetine
IMO the Ruger GP100 is one of the best .357 revolvers ever made, the other one is the Ruger Six series. A very close second is the S&W 586 - 686. I love my S&W's but a Ruger will take many tens of thousands of hot .357's, Rugers have survived into round counts that would send a S&W 586 back to the factory for a re-tune, while the GP would keep spitting out those hot magnums without skipping a beat.
One GP100 will last several generations, good thing I have 9 GP100's of various flavors, some chambered for .38 Special,a 3",a few 4",6" both half and full lug, fixed sight, blue, SS etc. etc.....along with nearly a dozen various Six revolvers.......Ruger revolvers are like Pringles, I guarantee you can't have just one!
Taurus......well, I won't bash, but there's a reason why I own nearly 20 Ruger DA revolvers, about 15 S&W's and 1 older Taurus .38 I got so cheap it was almost free. I am one man, with only one opinion, but I let the firearms I choose to buy speak my opinions. Once a man owns 1 Ruger GP100 he no longer has any need to mess with a Taurus.
TRIGGER TIME, GP-100 Range Report
Well now, THAT was FUN!
Started off by getting the gun dialed in with 38 +P ammo at approximately 30 yards on a 3" circle target. Initial cylinders full consistently shot high and left about 8" from the bulls eye.
A few clicks down and some more right had it shooting OK, but not exactly tack driving.
Ran the gamut of my ammo from target rounds, to 38 special, and finally the magnums. She did OK until I got up to the magnums which once again kept shooting left. WTF??? My buddy Art was watching as I shot off the bench and said he could tell when I was getting ready to touch one off as the muzzle would twitch ever so slightly. This aint a flinch. Ive shot 44 magnum and nailed a steel T-post from that very bench at the same range. Only thing I can figure is that the grip, which doesnt fit my hand quite right, is causing a slight shank to the left as I touch off a round. Bugger.
With the sights fairly well set we proceeded to a little free-hand blasting. A small chunk of two-by-four was chucked out into the pond, the object being to either nail it or get a round just under it and make it bounce out of the water. I got over it, under it, nailed it twice, and got a couple good bounces. Free-handing the magnums in single action nailed the board and put two rounds into a head-sized terrorist target at about 25 yards. OK, so Im not a great pistolero, but for me, this gun will reliably get torso hits out to 30 yards, and head shots are definitely a possibility at anything under 20 . More than adequate for close encounters of the violent kind. Once I get a grip that fits me right it oughtta be dead on.
The targets tell the tale. The first two, 38 target and Special, respectively, are 1 ½" bulls that I could barely see, but got close enough. The other two are 3" bulls, and as you can see the magnums gave me trouble off the bench. I should note that all the bullet weights were equal at 158 grains.
Only a couple minor issues to report.
I had one 38 +P that felt a bit light on the recoil so I stopped and checked the barrel, all good. Not the guns fault, I have no idea how old this ammo was.
A couple times after reloading the cylinder stop apparently didnt come back up all the way as the cylinder would click a couple stops then lock up as normal. I always rotate the cylinder to a notch after reloading just to make sure the stop is working right. It only did this twice, so I suspect new gun/fouling given that we put about 160 rounds through it today.
The only other issue is that one chamber didnt always eject cleanly, so I suspect a slight burr on the extractor, or possibly a bit of fouling would sometimes get in there. I couldnt tell if it was always the same chamber or not since it only happened 3 or 4 times.
There were no issues with indexing, firing, or leading up, nor is there any signs of chipping at the forcing cone rim.
My only problem now is that I may need another one so I can try some two-gun mojo with a matched pair!

I believe Dean Jorge Bocobo was the first to argue that the real story -and scandal- all along, boils down to a question: how could the President of the Philippines end up with a tapped phone?
I have to disagree with Manuel and Dean on this one. I don't think Arroyo was the target being spied on by ISAFP, BUT GARCILLANO. Napatawag lang si maam kay Garci kaya siya nadamay.
Katulad ito ng kaso ng wiretapping sa CNN journalist Christianne Amanpour. Hindi si Amanpour ang target ng NSA surveillance kundi yung terrorista sa kabilang linya (who's probably a "source" for Amanpour's reporting.)
UPDATE: Btw, panoorin nyo yung video ni Lacson kay Doble na nasa PCIJ.
Haha, nice one Lito.
UPDATE: "National Security"? Puh-lease!
Hindi po si Arroyo ang mino-monitor ng authorities kundi yung rogue official na si Garci.
Nadamay lang si Arroyo dahil tinawagan niya si Garci.
Why did some in the administration higher-ups eavesdropped on garci's phoneline? because they know he's up to no good and they don't trust him, so they want to keep an eye on Garci just in case namamangka si Garci sa dalawang ilog, o magsumbong siya sa kampo ni FPJ.
Wouldn't be a huge problem for her if they were just chit-chatting. but when they talked about silencing witnesses and fixing elections, ibang usapan na yan.
UPDATE: Tanong ng Inquirer Editorial:
If the "Hello, Garci" tapes had never surfaced, President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo would be firmly in charge, there would be, at best, a token opposition, and she wouldn't be, today, the Richard Nixon of Philippine politics. But the tapes surfaced, and the country then, as now, must ask: Why does the chief victim of the wiretapping, the President, seem the least inclined to get to the bottom of the matter?
Doronila OTOH, makes the case for the other side.
Ellen Tordesillas offers a different view from Doronila.
UPDATE: Neal Cruz is disappointed with Joker Arroyo.

Tissue Paper Flowers
Remember making these in grade school? If we made them then we can make them now! These are SO easy and can be used for baby showers, bridal showers, birthdays, or any occasion. You can also make flower bouquets.
Materials Needed:
– Tissue Paper Sheets
– Florist Wire
– Scissors
These instructions are from eHow.com.
1. Place eight to 12 full sheets of tissue paper onto a clean work surface. Make sure they are evenly stacked, one on top of another.
2. Fold the sheets accordion or fan style from one short end to the other. The folds should be approximately 1-1/2 inches wide. Be sure to keep the folds even. Use a craft stick to smooth the folds down for a crisp edge.
3. Securely wrap a 15-inch piece of wire around the center of the folded strip.
4. Hold the center of the folded tissue in one hand while wrapping one "leg" of the wire around the opposite leg. Firmly twist the wire legs or ends until they are pinched tightly against the paper center. Twist several more times.
5. Cut the end of each sides of the folded paper with straight or decorative-edge scissors. Cut a round or pointed shape to the ends of the paper to make petal edging.
6. Carefully separate the layers of paper by pulling apart the outer edges near the center. Continue to pull the thin sheets apart to loosen and shape the pompom petals. Repeat with the other side of the pompom.

Returning to fitness, week 1
I ran 2 to 4 miles most days, did 60 to 70 sit-ups most days, and changed nothing about my diet. This week, my weight is 198, which is 4 pounds less than my original weight. I'm glad to be losing weight, but oh how it hurts to do this. My muscles ache, and my body is exhausted every night. Hopefully I'll adapt soon. I've not yet changed my diet much. Read on for the photo.
Man, I really want to get rid of that double chin.

Harberts Wins Gold with the U.S. at the World University Games
July 15, 2013
KAZAN, Russia - Trojan senior forward Cassie Harberts and the USA Women's Basketball World University Games Team defeated Russia 90-71 to capture gold in the 2013 World University Games on Monday in Kazan, Russia.
Harberts scored eight points in 25 minutes of action to help the squad to the gold. Through six total games and one start in the games, Harberts averaged 7.0 points and 2.8 rebounds in an average of 18.8 minutes of work per game. She also tallied six steals, seven assists and two blocks. Overall she was 16-for-25 (.640) from the field and 10-for-12 (.833) from the charity stripe.
On the victory, Harberts said, "It is the greatest feeling in the world to be able to represent your country and be with these 12 girls and the coaches for three weeks and come out here and win a gold medal."
The victory marked the third consecutive gold medal for the U.S. in the World University Games and the ninth gold for the team in the event's history. Since 1973, the first year the U.S. women competed in the WUGs, the U.S. has compiled a 101-15 record.
Harberts enters her senior season in 2013-14, after a stellar junior campaign where the All-Pac-12 Team honoree started all 31 games for the Trojans, averaging 18.0 points per game and 8.2 rebounds per game. She set the USC record for free throws made (207) and attempted (298) in a single season. She excelled in the classroom as well, earning Pac-12 All-Academic honorable mention accolades. Harberts is currently ranked No. 16 all-time in scoring at USC with 1,293 career points.
Harberts previously won a gold medal with the U.S. at the 2010 FIBA Americans U18 Championships.

Social Media Wins — and Loses — Family Law Cases
The ubiquity of social media is proving to be a goldmine of evidence — but not just for cops and prosecutors. Social media is has begun playing an increasingly important role in family law cases.
While it might be amusing to your friends to post pictures of your latest happy hour high jinx on Facebook, and while it might be very tempting to relate in 140 characters or less what a jerk your soon-to-be-ex is on Twitter, if you're involved in any kind of family law case, you should think again.
Facebook Family Follies
Reports of attorneys mining Facebook for evidence in family law cases are growing.
In a child custody case, a father used evidence from Facebook to show that the mother of their children was spending her time playing online games instead of getting them to school on time.
|Haga clic aquí para leer esta historia en español.
And law enforcement investigators recently served a warrant on Facebook recently and got access to pictures, comments, messages, interests, IP addresses and the friends' list of Raul Cardona Jr., a fitness trainer to the stars in Hollywood who is a deadbeat dad back home in Milwaukee. After getting the information from Facebook, investigators could file an arrest warrant for Cardona, who owes more than $100,000 in child support payments.
"We have used Facebook in a number of cases," confirms Erik W. Newton, a partner with the family law firm of Heath-Newton LLP in San Francisco. While "there is inherently a hearsay problem with such evidence," Newton says, it can be admissible if "a proper foundation [is] put forth." Also, he adds, "in family court, judges often exercise their discretionary powers to consider 'relevant' evidence that would normally be inadmissible."
Newton points to a domestic violence case in which his firm used evidence against the opposing party, a former high school teacher who had posted status updates to her Facebook account detailing her drunken exploits, including going to school functions drunk, and flaming her partner. She was friends on Facebook with many of her now-ex students and her children.
Another case was similar, Newton says, but involved child custody: "The mother in that case lost custody," he explains. "The result was largely based on the use of her Facebook postings showing her drunk and partying at times she was supposed to be caring for the child."
Counseling for Oversharing
People can't seem to stop sharing, and it's changing the way family law is being practiced. "Positive or negative, it's inevitable, and we all need to get ready for it," Newton says of the use of social media in the courtroom. "I happen to believe it's a good thing — the more evidence we have to make good decisions the better."
His firm now counsels clients specifically about social media. "We advise all of our clients to only post something they would feel comfortable seeing printed in their local newspaper. It's public, and they need to acknowledge that," he explains. "Also, we advise everyone to change passwords regularly and to increase their security settings to the most conservative. We also advise clients to review the social accounts of their opposing parties and take screen shots of anything useful.
"Consumers of these services need to become more savvy and circumspect about what they post for public consumption," he warns. "The reality is that nothing posted online is private."
If you're concerned about your or your partner's use of social media and may become involved in a custody proceeding or divorce, contact a family lawyer on Lawyers.com to talk about your options.

Dechlorinating Water - Question
Hi all,
I am a home beer brewer in addition to my other 'hobbies' and have a filter I use to remove chlorine 'taste' and other impurities from the water. It is essentially one of those canister type filters you get a home depot that you see people using to make calcium reactors and what not out of and it uses these filters.
My question is this - I don't want to have to lug a 5 gallon bucket all over the house and potentially ruin the laminate floor (that stuff and water just doesn't get along). Would using one of these filters be safe for adding water to the tank and not stress the fish? I was planning on adding Stress Coat anyway.
Thanks in advance.
If you are concerned about the chlorine or chloramine before and after that filter, there are test kits for chlorine. I have found a dip-stick style works just fine.

Years ago, my mom used the original recipe as Christmas cookies. I remember that I took the recipe from her over the phone and I wrote it down in a notebook on the first page. That notebook stayed with me for a long, long time and kept my notes for just about everything: recipes, work-related to-do lists, car rental prices, phone numbers, complaint reference numbers, arrival times of visitors at Dubai airport, etc.
Over the years I have changed so many ingredients and proportions, that I don't even remember the original recipe. The notebook is gone too. But the cookies are delicious as ever.
1/3 cup palm sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup rolled oats
Preheat the oven to 175C/375F. Line large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine egg and sugar and beat until creamy. Add melted butter and vanilla and stir until well combined. Set aside.
In another bowl, combine oats, flour, and baking powder. Combine wet and dry ingredients and mix until well copmbined.
Drop teaspoons of the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2-3 inches space between the drops. Sprinkle with chopped almonds. Bake for about 10 minutes or until bottoms are golden brown. Let cool completely on wire rack, before storing in airtight container.

Who is pushing close to or more then 20psi?
Now only piping to do. What you guys think about cooler fitment? I dont know do i like it or not yet.
Dosent look bad, a little off centered though. Are you using that pulley on the m62? It's a little big don't you think?
Centered ,then "cooler to eaton" piping is harder to route. At moment its almost. Original m62 pulley yes. Because i havent drive this car with charged,i dont know what to excpect.For start i just want to get it work as stock as possible. Then look for more power( bigger pulley,bigger injectors,more fuel pressure,chip etc.)
Yes, i have driven about a year without g lader. I know yes,that smaller pulley makes more boost. I take it step by step. I am running 6PK1685 belt. Factory belt is little short,because eaton is further away.
Some update:
Intake piping to eaton is ready.
And cooler to engine piping is also ready.
Now need to fit about 20cm piping from eaton to cooler and its ready.
For finish piping will get matt black coating.
So today is the big day. Finally got all connected and ready.
But,no boost at intake. Checked that if hold hand in front of an intake pipe before tb,then air is moving good,so i doubt that piping leake is so big. When give it a gas in neutral,then it spikes 0.3-0,5bar. But when driving, 0psi.
Already removed isv,this aint leaking.

Weird what are those red/black wires on top of the blower about?
No one with a m90 been on the dyno lately??????
These wires are sc magnetic clutch wires.
Today checked original bypass and its also works good. And still no boost.
Last edited by mooz; 03-12-2012 at 03:03 PM.
^^ I wonder why mine has no magnetic clutch? Did you figure your boost problem out yet?
No,it looks very weird problem. Checked bypass. At first i could push it open with finger,after some modification it was good and closed as it should at WOT. Still no boost. Checked hoses and all looks good. But It must be some hose leak, no other explanation. I dont think that all boost could escape from cracked vacuum hoses? Vacuum hoses looked also good.
Is your m62 also from mercedes? We have in estonia one g60 more with M62,and he has also magnetic clutch.
Yep from a Mercedes.
Last edited by g60301; 03-12-2012 at 06:42 PM.
Hi guys!Are you shure the clutch is engaging or stuck open? It should be like the a/c compressor outer pulley and center piece should spin @the same pace,hope you figure it out! Looks great mate!! Roderick
I found my boost. As i thought it was silly mistake. One hose popped very little of the pipe,and leaked. About 70kmh with second gear i saw 0,5 bar.
Glad you found the leak, where was it? And I can't tell with that video how much boost your hitting. Are you still all completely stock? No chip, for, injectors?
At end of rev limiter it hits 0,5 bar. Yes all stock. Suggest me a chip maybe?
I live in estonia,its hard to get good things over here.
I'm running a stage 4 BBM chip. I also did not know my car had a chip from previous owner. Supposedly its a old school Sns chip (evo-91 octane ) haven't ran it with the sns chip. I don't feel like pulling the ecu back out. I talked to Jason at BBM and he recommended me the stage 4. I'm happy with it, although I haven't tried my other chip so can't compaire. You NEED a better for, and injectors. Don't run the car hard till you get a chip and the fuel accessories. And get a smaller pulley.
I think that without smaller pulley,and only 0,4-0,5 bar it should be okay at moment. If it melts, then it should have done it already, floor it all the time.
But yes, i need fpr,injectors and chip. Your right about that.
Did your original serpentine belt fit over the pulley on the eaton?
No. I measured lenght and bought 168cm long belt. 6PK1685 should be.
Anything new mooz? Did you hook a boost gauge up yet?
Yes,it blows about 0,55 to 0,6 bar. Spark plugs are good brown,so airfuel mixture is good.
Next weekend is streetrace season opening,then i can measure 1/4 mile ET.
Only problem at moment is that my second gear is difficult to get in,when accelerating full throttle. Changed all engine,trans mounts. Also filled back engine mount with windscreen glue to stiffen it up. I have rubber mounts,not hydro.
Still not satisfied, must change front mount to solid metal maybe.
But yeah,2 gear hard to get in. Its not transmission case, i think something with gear cables. Some ideas?
This is 0-100 kmh video,with very long gear change.
And this is just 2 gear and some 3.

Different types of proxies and their uses
Before using proxies, you should have a good idea about how these proxies will help you make anonymous and protect your privacy. Otherwise, you might just end up exposing your ip or private information to websites you do not intend to. So, let's have a look at the different types of proxies and their uses.
- Web based Proxies – These are just like normal websites but are capable of forwarding your requests to another web server. These proxy sites can be used for surfing other websites only. Your ip will not be disclosed but you won't be able to send your requests from other desktop applications through these servers.
- Http Proxies – These are proxy servers which can forward your http requests through common http ports 80, 8080, 8000, 3128. Although these proxies can process any http request coming from your desktop, they cannot however forward non-http requests. You will want to use anonymous proxies to help ensure your IP address is not being forwarded through the proxy you are trying to use.
- Socks 4/5 Proxies – These are Proxies that support Http and other connection types. 1080 is the common port. With this type of proxy server, you can use a messenger program or IRC through it. Socks 4 is the older of the two and has certain limitations. Socks 5 supports everything and is the new version as you could probably tell.
While using these proxies, be careful enough to test out any one of the proxy type to confirm that your ip and other information are not exposed.

Press digest
The following are the top stories in the Maltese and overseas press:
The Times reports how a 'gay' jibe man who ran down a tourist has walked free. It also gives prominence to comments by London Mayor Boris Johnson that London dumped the bendy buses on Malta.
The Malta Independent says an EU Banking Union is unlikely by 2013. It also says that the PL has ruled out tabling a no-confidence motion.
MaltaToday says that Austin Gatt is playing for time in parliament.
l-orizzont says the Mayor of Gharb was allegedly been investigated for usury, along with his brother.
In-Nazzjon reports on 'abusive and mistaken' leadership by Safi council. It also reports how a paralysed man is to give evidence at home.
The overseas press
European banks are in the midst of an emergency fire sale of assets worth more than €10,350 for each of Europe's 210 million households– meaning less money available to be lent to consumers, worsening the credit crisis. Bloomberg says the warning, from the International Monetary Fund in its Global Financial Stability Report, came 24 hours after it slashed its growth forecast for the world economy to just over three per cent for this year and the next. It said political leaders, especially those in the eurozone, were running out of time to put right the economic problems weighing them down.
Kathimerini reports that as more than 25,000 people protested in Athens against the German Chancellor's visit, Angela Merkel has told Greeks their sacrifices toward cutting spending would pay off. She made her remarks after meeting Prime Minister Antonis Samaras during her first visit to the country since the eurozone crisis began. Police briefly clashed with some demonstrators and detained at least 40 people.
Le Parisien says French riot police fired tear gas at hundreds of protesters trying to storm a Paris auto show during nationwide protests as the number of French unemployed topped three million for the first time in 13 years. Thousands of other demonstrators marched in Lyon, while operations the ports of Le Havre and Marseille were disrupted. The unions were also protesting Tuesday's ratification by the French parliament of the European fiscal treaty that stiffens penalties for countries that overspend.
Haaretz reports Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called an early general election. He said in a TV address the new elections for the 120-member Knesset would take place "as soon as possible" – possibly January, nine months earlier than scheduled. Netanyahu has been unable to agree the annual budget with his coalition partners.
The body of the leader of a Mexican drug cartel, who was killed in a shootout with marines, has been stolen by an armed gang. El Universal says the corpse of Heriberto Lazcano, founder of the Los Zetas gang, was stored by the authorities at a funeral parlour in northern Mexico. It quotes attorney general Homero Ramos saying a group of armed men raided the parlour where the corpse was being kept, and stole it.
Nato has issued a direct warning to Syria, declaring it was ready to defend Turkey after a week of cross-border firing escalated tensions between the two countries. Le Soir reports that the comments by Nato Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen were the strongest show of support to Turkey. Meanwhile, Ankara has sent additional fighter jets to reinforce an air base close to the frontier with Syria.
The Washington Post says China has reacted angrily to a US congressional report that called two of its largest telecom firms threats to US national security. The report warned that Huawei and ZTE could use their positions as major suppliers of telecommunications equipment to help the Chinese government expand its overseas spying operations. Chinese authorities dismissed the charge as "groundless" and suggested it could undermine future cooperation between the world's two largest economies.
Scotland Yard has revealed that up to 25 young girls were allegedly sexually abused by Sir Jimmy Savile over a period dating back to 1959. The Sun reports 17 allegations of sexual abuse against Sir Jimmy and 21 allegations against other people had been received. Officers said they now had 120 lines of enquiry from alleged victims, witnesses and third parties. The youngest alleged victim was 13 years old at the time. A statement released by Sir Jimmy's family within hours of the revelations said his headstone would be removed from his grave in Scarborough.
Fox News says 68-year-old Jerry Sandusky, the US sports coach at the centre of a child abuse scandal, has been sentenced to at least 30 years in jail. The sentencing came three months after a jury convicted Sandusky on 45 counts of child sexual abuse. He maintains his innocence and plans to appeal.
The Pakistani president and prime minister led politicians and media representatives in condemning an attack by Taliban gunmen that wounded a 14-year-old who campaigned for girls' rights. Malala Yousafzai was shot in the head on her way home from school in Mingora. A Pakistani Taliban spokesman told the BBC they carried out the attack because she was anti-Taliban and secular, adding that she would not be spared.
Ansa says the Italian government has dissolved the local government in Reggio Calabria for mafia connections. Interior Minister Annamaria Cancellieri said the government had "restore lawfulness to the city". The Calabria-based 'Ndrangheta is now the most powerful mafia in Italy thanks to its hold on the European cocaine trade.
The Supreme Court in Brazil has found a top aide of the former Brazilian President, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, guilty of corruption. O Globo reports Jose Dirceu, who was the president's chief of staff from 2003 to 2005, had been accused of setting up a scheme that used public funds to buy support from opposition parties in parliament. He denies the scheme ever existed and said the allegations were political. The former president is not implicated in the scandal.

Joseph Conrad

Heart of Darkness (1899) is a short novel by Polish novelist Joseph Conrad, written as a frame narrative, about Charles Marlow's life as an ivory transporter down the Congo River in Central Africa. The river is "a mighty big river, that you could see on the map, resembling an immense snake uncoiled, with its head in the sea, its body at rest curving afar over a vast country, and its tail lost in the depths of the land". In the course of his travel in central Africa, Marlow becomes obsessed with Mr. Kurtz.

Ronaldo, one booking away from missing the Clasico, was disappointing for the most part but grabbed his 41st league goal of the season with 16 minutes remaining as Madrid overcame a scare, having trailed for seven minutes to a Miguel de las Cuevas penalty on the half hour.
Gonzalo Higuain had cancelled that out, with Karim Benzema adding a late third after Roberto Canella was sent off for the visitors, the victory taking Real to another record of 107 Liga goals in a season, level with that set by John Toshack's side from the early Nineties.
The win means Real went points clear of second-placed Barcelona, although their Clasico rivals beat Levante immediately afterwards to restore the gap to four points: next weekend's clash of the titans is the 34th Liga match of the season, and if Madrid avoid defeat they will surely wrestle the title from Barca.
Sporting, meanwhile, lie seven points shy of safety with five matches left, all-but condemned to relegation and second bottom behind Real Zaragoza on the head-to-head rule.
Real were sluggish for much of the game, lacking the passing vision of the suspended Xabi Alonso, replacement Nuri Sahin handed a rare start but mostly falling short of the absent Spaniard.
Sporting, all-but relegated, packed the defence and impressed on the break, creating the first real chance when Oscar Trejo put his finish too close to Iker Casillas after sloppy defending from Alvaro Arbeloa.
As Real toiled, Higuain had a 28th-minute goal chalked off for offside; within seconds the visitors had won a penalty after Sergio Ramos handled following Trejo's mazy run.
Former Atletico Madrid midfielder De las Cuevas stepped up and, amidst the jeers, finished with aplomb, the ex-Atletico Madrid midfielder sending Casillas to his right and the ball down the middle.
Jose Mourinho was apoplectic, exploding from his dugout on several occasions in the half, but his side quickly equalised when Ramos - playing almost as an attacking midfielder as he attempted to Atone for his error - swung in a superb cross that Higuain met flashed past Juan Pablo, the Argentine's diagonal run giving him a free header.
That sparked Real back into action, the hosts creating two more chances before the break as Jose Callejon put wide from another fine Ramos centre, while Sahin swung a wicked free-kick off the crossbar.
Mourinho appeared to care little for those two opportunities, replacing both Callejon and Sahin at half-time with Angel di Maria and Benzema, a tactic he frequently employs when his teams are toiling.
But it had little initial impact as Madrid continued to toil, Ronaldo barely visible and his team-mates frustrated by a deep-lying and hard-working Sporting, who - on 57 minutes - replaced lone striker Gaston Sangoy with midfielder Andre Castro in a move of alarming negativity that for 10 minutes had them at a 5-5-0 formation.
Ronaldo, incredible in the thrashing of Atletico last time out, was nowhere near the target with a selection of free-kicks and long shots and his side struggled to break down the third-worst team in La Liga.
Sporting, who had played for 10 minutes with no striker, did bring on David Barral but his role was primarily to close down Ramos and co, who were heavily involved in Madrid's attacks.
Down the other end it took until the 71st minute for the hosts to create a second-half chance of note as Higuain blasted wide from a Ronaldo through-ball.
However Real have more than most in one department - sudden match-winners - and, in a poor game by his standards, Ronaldo proved just that as he flew in to head Di Maria's cross in off the post on 74 minutes.
Any hopes of a Sporting fightback were ended when skipper Canella, booked in the first half and lucky to avoid an immediate second yellow, was finally dismissed after a needless challenge from behind on Di Maria.
And Mourinho's other sub, Benzema, completed the victory with eight minutes left, controlling a fine Mesut Ozil pass before firing a low finish into the same corner Ronaldo had aimed his header at eight minutes earlier.

Well, no, the whole point is that we want to plot x^(1/3) or x^(3/5) or
whatever for both negative and positive values of x. This used to be
easy with the now obsolete package Miscellaneous`RealOnly` (which we
might resort to using and just ignore the "obsolete package" message).

Nov. 19, 2011
Site: Pittsburgh, Pa. (Fitzgerald Field House)
Score: #11 Pittsburgh 19, #6 Michigan 13
Records: U-M (1-1), Pittsburgh (2-0)
Next U-M Event: Fri-Sat., Dec. 2-3 -- at Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational (Las Vegas, Nev.), 9 a.m. PST
PITTSBURGH, Pa. -- The No. 6-ranked University of Michigan wrestling team rallied at the middleweights but could not hang on to its lead, falling 19-13 to No. 11 Pittsburgh on Saturday evening (Nov. 19) at the Panthers' Fitzgerald Field House.
Pitt claimed the dual's final three matches to surge past the Wolverines, who had the chance to at least even the team score with a decision win at heavyweight, although Pitt held the criteria advantage. The Panthers' Zac Thomusseit won a late scramble in the sudden-victory frame, however, scoring on the edge to defeat senior/junior Ben Apland (Woodridge, Ill./Downers Grove South HS), 3-1.
U-M had rallied to claim its first lead of the dual, 13-10, after three consecutive wins from its Hesperia (Mich.) High School trio at the middleweights.
Junior/sophomore Brandon Zeerip (Fremont, Mich./Hesperia HS) and junior/sophomore Dan Yates (Hesperia, Mich./Hesperia HS) used strong third periods to claim decision victories at 157 and 165 pounds, respectively. Zeerip countered a deep single-leg shot to edge Donnie Tasser, 3-2, while Yates used a second-period escape and a third-period rideout to knock off Tyler Wilps, 2-0.
Fifth-year senior Justin Zeerip (Fremont, Mich./Hesperia HS) earned a pair of reversals to beat Ethan Headlee, 4-2, at 174 pounds. After a scoreless first period, Zeerip wrapped up Headlee's leg, nearly getting into a Peterson position before coming around for the reversal. Headlee reversed the Wolverine early in the third, but Zeerip quickly regained control with another reversal and a subsequent rideout.
Senior Zac Stevens (Monroe, Mich./Monroe HS) cruised past the Panthers' Shelton Mack, 10-2, to claim his second major decision of the weekend at 133 pounds. Stevens converted on three takedowns, including two in the second period, drew a couple of stall points, and used his 1:33 in riding-time advantage to earn the bonus win.
Despite gaining early leads in both matches, the Wolverines lost a pair of close decisions to top-10 opposition at 149 and 197 pounds. Third-ranked Tyler Nauman scrambled for a takedown in the closing seconds of the first period and earned a second-period rideout to defeat junior/sophomore Eric Grajales (Brandon, Fla./Brandon HS), 4-2, at 149. Sophomore/freshman Max Huntley (Emerald Isle, N.C./Blair Academy) carried a one-point lead into the third period against seventh-ranked Matt Wilps, but the Panther 197-pounder rode out the frame, earning a three-point near fall to seal a 6-2 decision.
Michigan was missing several projected starters, including fifth-year senior Kellen Russell (High Bridge, N.J./Blair Academy), for the second straight dual. All are expected to return to competition soon. Russell will not compete in the NWCA All-Star Classic on Monday (Nov. 21). He will be replaced by Penn's Zach Kemmerer.
The Wolverines will take a two-week break before returning to competition on Friday and Saturday, Dec. 2-3, at the annual Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational in Las Vegas, Nev. The first session is slated for a 9 a.m. PST start at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

MC 39 Sloop - feedback
Does anyone have any experience, feedback or opinions on a MC 39 Sloop, apparently 30 were built by Marcos Yachts in Vancouver.
well i think they are very well built boats. if you were going to purchase one i would say you would be very lucky to find one under 100,000 us dollars. i have sailed aboard one and i never was afraid like i get on a hunter or catalina or other production boat.
the marcos 39 is designed to take you around the world in safety and reasonable comfort, for a vessel under 40 feet.
Re: MC 39 Sloop - feedback
Do either of you have an MC39? I just bought one myself and would love to connect with someone else who's got one ;)
Re: MC 39 Sloop - feedback
I have number 19,bought it this year second owner.
when I see people say they are slow.mine goes 6kt @ 1800 rpm and 6-7 knots in a 20 knot wind ..love the boat.:):):)
Re: MC 39 Sloop - feedback
Hey Surfn8054, very cool ;) How do you know which number you've got? What year is it? Whereabouts around the globe are you? I'm a new sailor so am going to learn how to sail on my MC39. So far it seems like a rock-solid boat. We're moored in Blaine, WA and ours is a 1981. No idea which number it is though....:)
Re: MC 39 Sloop - feedback
my hull came out in 1981...the boat was finished 1986...the survey says number 19....also the main sail says mc39-19 wondered what the 19 meant on the main sail.....just a little slow.
anyway I am in Ladner
Re: MC 39 Sloop - feedback
Very interesting! Would love to see pics! I don't know how to private message on here but would love to keep in touch via email. There aren't many MC-39 owners out there!! Email is lrob at me.com Shoot me a line and I'll send you some pics of ours also. We just got it in July as well.
Re: MC 39 Sloop - feedback
I bought my first hull from Markos (note spelling). Not a 39 but he was one of the best builders in the Vancouver area back then. All his boats were very nicely built.
I was on some of his 39's at the time, both complete and not - they would make extremely comfortable homes.
He sold hulls & decks so caveat emptor. It's pretty easy to tell if it was his build though. One trademark was gratings inside with all the edges rounded over. I never cared for it but it was distinctive.
How about some pics?
Re: MC 39 Sloop - feedback
Yes, our MC39 was built by Markos Yachts in Vancouver. You are totally right. The inside is all slatted doors and vents with rounded corners on everything ;) She's a very solid boat. We're working on getting the diesel stove running soon as it is getting chilly and we just have a little electric cabin heater. Do you know if Markos put the diesel stoves in when he built them? (I'm not sure if it was put in later by the previous owner or not) The beds are smaller than we'd have liked but it does have 2 cabins... Do you guys with MC39's have a nook that converts to a berth? We can see where our table used to fold down but can't figure out how it converted. (As it appears to have been since made to no longer convert) SloopJonB- maybe you've been on my boat before! ;)
Re: MC 39 Sloop - feedback

Everything Markos did was semi-custom so the heater could go either way. I've seen Tewkesbury solid fuel fireplaces, like the photo, on them for example.
I guarantee those weren't "stock". :D

Lucky you! The painted number over a number is known to be a Japanese Navy marking on Type I rifles and I think on Japanese VZ24 rifles too. It seems the Navy got the short end of Arisaka distribution and had to buy rifles from Italy and Czechoslovakia. The marking, I'm guessing, means something like ship #11, rifle #45 but that is not known for sure.
Both the Japanese and Chinese bought and used P series VZ24 rifles. The Japanese captured a lot in China from the Chinese (before delivery?) and used them, only to give them back at the end of the war. The Chinese often stamped the stocks. Japanese P series VZ24 rifles are sometimes identified only by the Japanese characters painted on the original sling.
The two small stock stamps are first and third, or inspector #1 and inspector #3. The large stamp is as yet unidentified. I suppose it could be a Japanese rifle that was stamped by the Chinese after the war but there seems to be no way to prove Japanese ownership or use. That is, unless your serial number is P49938 or P49940. My receiver and stock serial number is P49939.
Yours looks like a vet bringback. I heard a story that a lot of them were found in new condition in a warehouse in the Phillipines. Mine has no import marks but could have missed being stamped by the importer. Or, it could be a Korean War vet bringback.
Here's my Chinese P series:

Brand New Day
Ricki-Lee Coulter
Setting aside her participation in that none-more-contrived fluffery, the Young Divas, Ricki-Lee Coulter had the good luck or good sense not to take the typical Idol route of minimal imagination and maximum blandness at Sony BMG. Her second album punches above its weight as a pop album with some of the wit and energy displayed by the criminally underrated Nick Hardcastle (with whom she shares management).
The light reggae lope of Real Good Time, the very Christina Aguilera-like beefed up '40s swing of Can't Touch It and the finger-snapping, '70s jazz pop of Brand New Day (co-written by Glenn Cunningham and Paul Gray, once of Wa Wa Nee, channelling Al Jarreau) are very fine slices of pop music that actually have subtleties.
Not too bad either are Love Is All Around (which you could imagine Marcia Hines singing 30 years ago), Take Me To a Place (just enough Motown to keep things interesting) and Alone No More (with its definite debt to Darren Hayes).

Elite Series pro Matt Reed is a renowned offshore-structure specialist. If the situation requires a methodical dissection of deep cover, he's the guy you want to have all your chips on.
Conventional wisdom says that you have to use heavier baits in order to be successful out deep, but Reed cautions that conventional wisdom can often be misleading.
"If possible, I really prefer to use a heavy bait because I can cover more water in less time," he says. "That being said, there are situations where you just aren't able to do that."
Clear water and high pressure days, Reed contends, are two such scenarios where heavier baits won't be as effective out deep. "I'll often scale down to 10-pound line and a lighter jig, even though it would be easier to throw heavy line and a 1-ounce football head," he says. "The jig and line have to be downsized when there's heavy fishing pressure or the water is clear. Downsizing out deep will get a lot more bites on those tough days," contends Reed.
"I've been in situations where going from 10-pound test down to 8-pound test made all the difference in my day," he says. "Rather than dragging a 1/2-ounce jig around, you can drop down to a 1/4-ounce jighead and start picking up some bites."
Reed cautions, however, that when fishing deeper than 20 feet, using a lure lighter than a 1/4-ounce can prove to be pointless. "The problem you encounter with light baits is that they just take too long to get to the bottom," he says. "They will get down there eventually but just not quick enough so that you can fish it effectively."
The basic rule Reed lives by is that in clear water and/or high-pressure lakes, downsizing equals success. "You want to fish something that's more subtle so you're not apt to spook the bass as much," he points out. "You have to keep in mind that if you're in clear water, or on a high-pressure lake, the fish are just going to be naturally skittish. Dropping a 3/4-ounce jig on 20-pound line down on them is going to cause the fish to scatter."
Reed also points out there are finesse situations when a little bulk might actually be beneficial. "In cold, clear water you will probably want to oversize your jig's trailer," he says.
In fishing, says Reed, it's all about opportunity. "In my mind, anytime the water temperature drops below 40 degrees, the bass are just listless and not interested in much," he says. "I want my bait to have a real slow fall so that it will hang in front of them long enough for them to decide to eat."
