- "A compact, lightweight semi-automatic pistol designed for law enforcement and personal defense use. 12-round magazine with option to extend to 16 rounds."
- ―GTA V description on the Rockstar Games Social Club.
The Combat Pistol, appearing as Desert Eagle in the 3D Universe, is a pistol featured in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto V. In GTA V, it is manufactured by Hawk & Little.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
The Combat Pistol takes the form of a Desert Eagle in both Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and it is referred to as such in it. It is modeled after the .50 caliber version and holds seven rounds per magazine.
The weapon also appears in some cutscenes of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, but it is never available in normal gameplay.
Grand Theft Auto IV
Referred as the Combat Pistol, the Grand Theft Auto IV rendition is modeled after the .357 variant of the Desert Eagle and features a more detailed appearance. It is obviously a bit larger than the Pistol and features a slightly longer barrel. The Combat Pistol has nine rounds per magazine.
Grand Theft Auto V
In Grand Theft Auto V, the Combat Pistol now takes the form of a compact pistol that closely resembles an HK P2000 combined with a Beretta Px4 Storm. It hold 12 rounds per magazine (that can be replaced by a 16-round magazine) and allows various attachments on it.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
The Desert Eagle in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is basically more powerful than the Pistol, but holds less rounds than the former in a single magazine, resulting in a constant reloading when used. It takes 2 body shots with poor skill level; if one's skill is gangster or hitman level they can kill non-armored NPCs in one shot and two for armored NPCs.

Grand Theft Auto IV
In Grand Theft Auto IV, the Combat Pistol is more powerful than the standard Pistol, but sacrifices ammunition capacity for it, holding only nine rounds in the magazine as opposed to seventeen rounds for the Pistol. While it can be used for drive-bys, its semi-automatic capabilities and the 9-round magazine makes it hard to use at neutralizing targets in car chases.
The Desert Eagle takes about 3-4 shots to an unarmored NPC in the body to kill them. The Combat Pistol in GTA IV has a much higher fire rate than the GTA San Andreas rendition (it is the same as the Glock), which is odd, as the Desert Eagle in real life does have a semi-automatic rate, but much slower than that of the Glock due to its heavy recoil.

Grand Theft Auto V
The Grand Theft Auto V rendition can be considered a step-up of the standard Pistol, since it has slightly more damage, better accuracy and a bit more range (all according to in-game stats) while sharing the same fire rate and ammo magazine (both default and extended). According to the lettering on the gun itself, the Combat Pistol in GTA V is chambered for 9mm ACB.

- Bayside Marina - In corner of the wall behind house from the Gant Bridge, head north until reaching Bayside, and take the first right. Follow the winding road round and take the first left. Immediately after turning left, look along the left side of the street for a row of posh white houses. Head behind the third house, and look along the back wall. The Desert Eagle is in the corner of the wall to the far right.
- Lil' Probe'Inn - Under solar panel in trailer park. From the Fallow Bridge, cross the bridge and take the third left at the fork in the road. Turn right and pass under the railroad tracks, and look along the right side of the road for a trailer park opposite the Lil' Probe Inn bar. Head towards the trailer park and the Desert Eagle is under the middle solar panel on the east side of the trailer park.
Grand Theft Auto IV
- Can be purchased from the Underground Gun Shops after passing the mission Museum Piece. It costs $1,500 plus $100 per magazine.
- Can be also obtained early by attacking the shop manager. He will drop the weapon if provoked.
- In The Ballad of Gay Tony, it is the starting weapon of Luis, with 50 rounds of total ammunition.
- During the TBOGT mission Going Deep, the NOOSE team will be using the weapon, specifically the detectives from the FIB Buffalos.
- Francis International Airport - Can be found at the oil refinery on Tudor Street on a platform between two rows of oil refining towers. There is a ladder on the north side of these towers to reach the platform.
- Charge Island - Can be found underneath a walkway ramp on top of an oil storage tank in the oil refinery under the East Borough Bridge. It can be easily reached by jumping onto the tank from the Charge Island off-ramp before the toll booths from the Broker side.
- Bohan Industrial - Can be found on the westernmost segment of the uncompleted Northern Expressway. It can be easily reached by helicopter, or by taking a series of stunt jumps across the various segments.
- The Triangle - Can be found on the wall of the balcony of the west side of Grand Easton Terminal, nearest the Columbus Ave construction site.
- City Hall - Can be found on the ground near some planters at a café off Union Drive West.
- North Holland - If the player decided to kill Playboy X in the mission The Holland Play, he carries a Combat Pistol. The player can collect it after they dispatch him. It will not be dropped if the player assassinates Playboy, only if they kill him before he reaches the door.
- Alderney City - Can be found on a large electrical wire spool in the third berth of the old ferry terminal off Asahara Rd. The player can only see the orange glow of the pistol, since the actual piece is clipped in the spool.
- Acter Industrial Park - Can be found on top of the oil storage tank closest to the Alderney State Correctional Facility on Storax Rd.
Grand Theft Auto V
- Can be bought from Ammu-Nation for $600.
- The player may obtain it for free by going to any Ammu-Nation with a shooting range, killing the clerk, going to the range and killing the man shooting the Combat Pistol.
- The player may obtain it by killing soldiers inside and outside Fort Zancudo.
- During the mission Dead Man Walking, IAA agents use it.
- In the mission Fresh Meat, Franklin gives it to Michael after freeing him from the meathook.
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
- Although the Desert Eagle was not featured as an usable weapon, it can be seen in several different cutscenes:
- In the mission Supply & Demand, Ricardo Diaz can be seen with a Desert Eagle during the cutscene where he shoots his video player.
- In the mission Rub Out, Lance Vance wields a regular Desert Eagle during the cutscene where he and Tommy gun down Diaz.
- In the mission The Shootist, Phil Cassidy can be seen dual-wielding two Desert Eagles during the cutscene at the shooting range, one of which he gives to Tommy (although Tommy uses a regular pistol during the competition).
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
- The appearance of a .50 AE Desert Eagle in San Andreas is slightly anachronistic, as the model firing it first went on sale in 1995, while the game takes place in 1992. A .357 or .44 version would have been more accurate instead, since these two would fit in the game's setting.
- Using the Adrenaline cheat code reveals that the firing sound for the Desert Eagle is the same as the Pistol but slowed down.
- It is possible to use a bug to make the gun shoot faster by doing this: Aim, fire, release both fire and aim, click Crouch button, and do the same thing again.
Grand Theft Auto IV
- The Desert Eagle, while not referred to as such in-game, does feature a "Deagle 47" etching on its barrel.
- GTA IV's price of $1,500 is true to the Desert Eagle's actual retail value, as they usually go for $1,500-$2,200 for the .357-.50AE respectively. The gun in GTA IV is the .357 model, making the price accurate.
Grand Theft Auto V
- Michael on some occasions may prefer this weapon over the regular Pistol, as he picks one up during Dead Man Walking, uses it during Fresh Meat when Franklin tosses him one, and if playing The Time's Come (Ending B).

It seems an odd fit, though perhaps it shouldn't. Simon Russell Beale is associated most strongly with sublime classical roles at the National Theatre. Yet here he is, at the age of 52, taking part in director Jamie Lloyd's rudely energetic, inaugural four-play Trafalgar Transformed season, aimed at dragging new audiences and new energy to the Cinderella venue that is the Trafalgar Studios.
What's more, Russell Beale is appearing in an early Harold Pinter play that even Pinter deemed unworthy of production for 22 years. The Hothouse is a belligerently funny allegory of totalitarianism, set in a coercive institution. "It does have a Soviet feel to it and we are rehearsing in a building in Belsize Park that feels just like one of those old asylums," says Russell Beale. "But it is also about people in a closed community convincing themselves that they have moral justification."
His character is Roote, the institution's director, who may have killed one patient and impregnated another. "I have got to make a decision about whether I did or I didn't," says Russell Beale. "We don't know what is going on, so you have to make very firm decisions as an actor. The bit that made me gasp, though, when I read it, is when Roote chucks whisky into a colleague's face."
He had heard good things about Lloyd and theatre owner Howard Panter's plans for the Trafalgar, which included lowering ticket prices and luring James McAvoy to play Macbeth. But he'd also been playing the pacifist transvestite Terri Dennis in Privates on Parade in the West End ("the least violent man you could meet") for Michael Grandage's company, had no work between that and his forthcoming King Lear, and thought, "this is just what I need. A bit of sadism. A bit of bullying."
Between 32-year-old Lloyd and his co-star, the 42-year-old but ever-youthful John Simm, Russell Beale says he feels like the elder statesman. He has only ever done two short Pinter plays before, a double-bill of Landscape and A Slight Ache with Clare Higgins at the National, shortly before the famously curmudgeonly author's death in 2008. "He wasn't terribly well and he came to a couple of run-throughs," the actor recalls. "I remember me and Clare hiding in a room going 'f***ing sh***ing p***, we're going to have to do this in front of Harold'. And naturally, he was charming, as he was known to be with actors. But because I know he played this part, I can't get his voice out of my head, that barking way of speaking."
Pinter wrote The Hothouse in 1958 but put it away after the success of The Caretaker and did not stage it until 1980. It has obvious debts to Beckett's Waiting for Godot but Russell Beale also detects top notes of Tony Hancock and Arthur Lowe in the character of Roote.
"What Pinter is brilliant at is that sense of unspecific threat, unspecific aggression, unspecific sexual power or energy," he says. "But this is early Pinter, so it is more farcical. There is some tradition of music hall in it. It's funny in a way late Pinters aren't. It has a youthful exuberance and doesn't have that very smooth crafting that the later plays do. There's no question that in the late works he had a genius of some type. The reason to do an early play is to find out where that comes from."
The quirkiness of the project is, in a way, its own justification. "Middle age is a funny stage for actors," Russell Beale muses. "You need to try to change people's perceptions of you. I've got to invest, haven't I? This [production] is very rough and ready and very messy, but that's good for me." And as I said, we shouldn't be surprised. Reinvention is Russell Beale's stock in trade, as it must be for all proper actors.
He started out playing fops and comic grotesques at the RSC until Terry Hands cast him as the tragic Konstantin in the Seagull in 1991. There were subsequent quantum jumps in casting, often at the behest of his two great director-collaborators, Sam Mendes and the outgoing National Theatre boss Nicholas Hytner: he was an old-ish Hamlet and Benedick and more recently a scathing Timon of Athens and a phlegmatic Stalin in Collaborators, all at the National, and he was in The Winter's Tale and The Seagull for the first incarnation of Mendes's transatlantic Bridge Project at the Old Vic in 2009. He and Mendes reunite at the National this year for Lear. "I do honestly wake up once a week in the middle of the night thinking, oh sh*t, I'm too young," he frets.
There have been more radical reinventions away from the South Bank, though: his turns as King Arthur in Spamalot and in the hokey thriller Deathtrap. He concedes, too, that one reason for taking a hiatus after Privates on Parade was to have a proper go at getting into film, rather than the bit parts in My Week with Marilyn and The Deep Blue Sea to which he has thus far been relegated.
"I need to learn about film," he says. "I absolutely loved playing Falstaff [for the BBC's Hollow Crown film season], but it felt like a halfway house in terms of my confidence, as I was doing words I felt comfortable with in a style I felt comfortable with. I have got to bite the bullet and learn a bit about it. Six or eight months off would be fine if I could afford it. I would just put some feelers out. But there's nothing currently in the offing."
What there is at the moment, though, is a greater interplay between the worlds of film, theatre and television, as evinced by actors like McAvoy and directors such as Mendes and Stephen Daldry. It is also a great time of creative flux, with Hytner leaving the National, new artistic directors at other leading theatres, and established figures finding new ways of working. Russell Beale says, mock-indignantly, that no one has asked his advice over who should get the National job, and that under the incomer "… I might be ditched! But people think I spend all my time at the National and of course I don't. I've just spent a year away. I have a sentimental attachment to Nick — and to Sam — but it's an emotional thing rather than a careerist thing. What Nick has done at the National has been amazing. Now he will have to reinvent himself in some way like Sam did and like Michael [Grandage] is doing. I'm sure he and Nick Starr [the NT's outgoing executive director] will do something radical."
Lest this all makes him sound too much the South Bank insider, he also says he is excited about Rupert Goold's appointment to the Almeida and Michael Grandage's initiative through his new company to encourage youngsters interested in theatre but not in acting or directing. Also by the cheap Monday night tickets at the Trafalgar, arguably inspired by Hytner's Travelex-sponsored seasons of subsidised tickets, which opened up the National's audience.
The last time I interviewed Russell Beale, for Deathtrap, we discussed how London theatre was thriving amid economic disaster. Three years on, it still feels like a golden period, however imminently cash-starved.
Last night, he says, he went to see A Chorus Line, then got a call from Mendes, demanding a beer at the Covent Garden Hotel after technical rehearsals for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory at Drury Lane. Mendes's new partner Rebecca Hall was there, and Trevor Nunn, and Russell Beale found himself telling a young online journalist that theatre was "very chic, very fashionable right now, and it's very healthy, and good". Hard to argue against that, or that Russell Beale doing an early Pinter at the Trafalgar is an important piece of that ecology.
The Hothouse is at Trafalgar Studios, SW1, May 4-August 3 (0844 871 7627, thehothousewestend.com)

veryone seems to "know" what Christianity is, but few can agree about how to live it. It's easy if you follow the original model, Jesus; it's easy to get off base if you take your focus off of Him. Much of what people think is Christianity is really religion. There is a difference. If you are not sure what the differences are, I suggest you read my article True Verses False Christianity, and then return to these pages to learn how to live a healthy and productive Christian Life.
ust as prayer is open communication between you and your Father, the Bible, God's Word, is a love letter to you from your Dad. If you look at it from this perspective, you will keep it from becoming rigid, dull, and legalistic, it will keep you grounded and focused on relationship and love.
Studying and interpreting Scriptures should follow some basic guidelines. Read a phrase of a Scripture verse in relationship to and within the context of the complete sentence. Read the complete sentence in the context of the whole paragraph. Read the paragraph in the context of the whole chapter. Read the whole chapter in relationship to the whole book. Read the whole book in balance with the whole Bible. Read the whole Bible in relationship with the living Word of God, Jesus Christ.
Jesus Christ is the Word of God made flesh. If you see Him, you see your Father God. Everything that Jesus said, thought and did agree with God, and is the Bible in living form. How Jesus ate and slept, laughed and cried, taught and corrected, healed and comforted, got angry and rebuked, was patient and listened, accepted and loved, died and rose again is the Bible. So, take whatever you think a certain passage means, what you have been told or taught it means, and hold it up in comparison to Jesus. Now remember, He is not some doctrinal, religious, codified Jesus, but the living breathing person Jesus Christ. If they match, well done; if not, then not only do you need to rethink your interpretation, but perhaps also your understanding of Jesus.
It is also good to look at Scriptures in relationship to their historical and cultural settings. You might be surprised what you learn. In the Gospel of Luke, Chapter 18, Verses 35-43, there is the story of Bartimaeus, a blind man sitting by the side of the road. As Jesus passed, he called out to Jesus, and His disciples went back and got the man. Jesus asked him, "What do you want?" The man replied, "I want to see, have mercy on me." Jesus replied, "According to your faith, so be it." He saw. In those days, if you were poor or sick you went to the priests, they examined you, and you wore a coat to show you could legally accept donations. If you read the same story in the Gospel of Mark, Chapter 10, Verses 46-52, this is the only version that says Bartimaeus "threw away his coat" when he got up, before he got to Jesus. Jesus saw it, so no wonder Jesus said, "Your faith has made you whole." Looking at the Scriptures from an historical and cultural setting can help you understand what is going on, to whom it applies, and why it was written. Do not allow yourself to interpret something out of context, or not applicable to your life. This is another good reason to compare your interpretations with Jesus.
If you do not understand a verse or part of the Bible, do not be discouraged. Ask God. The Holy Spirit lives in your heart, to help you understand this love letter to you from your Father. There are also many good study bibles, with study aids in the margins. There are other study guides, such as concordances that list every time a certain word appears; so, if you want to do a study on "joy," you can look up all the verses that talk about joy. There are Bible dictionaries, to help you understand different people, cities, and events. You can find them in any bookstore or at your local public library.
God gave you a brain as well as a heart. Let your heart lead your brain. So, be open to different ideas or interpretations of Scriptures. Use your brain, look at them, consider them, and let your heart decide, not your head. Logical can sometimes take you places you should not go. I have seen people use the Bible logically to conclude things that are not Love, not from the heart. An example of this is the teaching it is acceptable to be gay in orientation but not in practice; this teaching comes from good meaning people who are trying to find ways of accepting us gays. But, this interpretation violates Christ's teachings that thought and action is the same thing, to think something is the same as doing it. This interpretation is obviously not Love, it prevents a person from being true to self, and living a full and abundant life, despite the fact it seems so logical and well thought out. Use your brain, but follow your heart, where the Holy Spirit resides who understands all things.
Scriptures are full of promises for you, God's son or daughter. You can claim those promises, stand on them because they are for you who trusts in God through the work and Blood of Jesus Christ. They are not magic charms or formulas to get whatever you want, or make God do what you want. Use them responsibly, in accordance with what is best and right for your life, in agreement with Christ's Law of Love. What might apply to you, might not for someone else, what might be love and lawful for you, might not be for another, but all always agrees with God's Love. Scriptures reinforce to you your position in God's family, and God's view and opinion of you. Meditate, think and reflect on them, day and night. Use them to grow and be edified.
If, while reading Scriptures, you become aware of something lacking in your life, go to God in prayer and ask for Jesus' guidance and assistance. If you become aware of some fault, weakness, or error, ask God for forgiveness, to empower you to become an "overcomer." Do not beat yourself over the head with the Bible; remember, the Bible is Jesus, so I do not think Jesus wants to be beaten over your head, HaHa. Use the Bible to edify yourself.
Do not listen to people who say you cannot mature as a Christian unless you read the Bible every day, or so many hours a day. I know people who read the Bible constantly, but are ignorant of Jesus and God. What will lead you to maturity is recognizing the Bible is not formulas, but fellowship. It is always about family, and relationship. How much time you spend with God in fellowship, using reading the Bible as one way of doing so, will determine the depth of your relationship together.
You can spend a lifetime with Jesus, and still barely know the depths of His love for you. You can spend a lifetime reading the Bible, and if you are open to God, you will always find something new, sometime to help and bless you. It is a living document leading you to its Author. Your relationship with God will suffer if you do not regularly communicate. The Bible is one way of doing it. So, read and study it regularly.

Intricate Crayon Sculptures Depict A Variety Of Animals [Pics]
Artist Diem Chau's 'Northwest Natives' alphabet set is a series of micro-sculptures made out of colorful drawing implements.
Vietnam-born artist Diem Chau's 'Northwest Natives Alphabet Set' is a collection of colorful Crayola crayons that have been carved into a species native to the Pacific Northwest. Every letter is paired with a different species as a tribute to the artist's neck of the woods.
The full set is being exhibited at the G. Gibson Gallery in Seattle. It ranges from A for Aquilegia (Columbine) to Z for Zapus princeps (Western Jumping Mouse). The alphabet set includes a bald eagle, a cougar, an elk, a grizzly bear, a killer whale, a mountain goat, a northern spotted owl, an otter, and a timberwolf.
A lot of work went into the intricate micro-sculptures and Chau writes that she had a lot of fun learning about the native species. Her favorite crayon is the painted turtle. She carved the turtle on top first but was unsatisfied with how small it was compared to the whole crayon, so she added a pond scene with another turtle, lily pads and rippling water.

Only certain releases of four Sony Ericsson devices are eligible for a boot loader unlock right now, namely the Xperia PLAY, arc, pro, and the neo. However, it is quite possible for upcoming smartphones to join the list of modder-friendly handsets. In a nutshell, the unlocking procedure goes like this: you provide SE with your name, email address, and the smartphone's IMEI number, after which you will be able to download all the software needed for the boot loader unlock to be performed.
Of course, Sony Ericsson does not forget to warn you that a ton of things can go wrong. Unlocking the boot loader may have unwanted side effects like ending up with a bricked device or voiding its warranty. If you choose to proceed anyway, we urge you to be very careful, and do not forget to share your modding endeavors with us by leaving a comment below.

You have probably read the news about a new marketplace thats currently worth about 5 Billion $ (with a "B"!) that allows you to get contact information like phone numbers and email addresses from celebrities.
Here is the website: http://site.introbiz.com/ – looks familiar, doesn't it? ;DHere is the article: http://www.businessinsider.com/a-closer-look-at-introbizcom-2014-7
Why didn't Envato come up with that idea first? Naming the thing would be easy enough. I would probably go with Celebritywaste or Contactcoast…
Seriously, what were people thinking when they bought that stock? ;D
Haha I think this was already posted.
I like CelebValley
that's real guys, I'm about to call Angelina right now
Massage deleted. Wrong thread.

Not when you're Kriesi. //Edit: Just realized what you meant, haha. Sorry.
Anyways, how can one move his items to this new marketplace?
Why? You wanna be there when the stock value collapses? Haha

Why? You wanna be there when the stock value collapses? Haha
No way.
This is clearly a flourishing business that will expand within the next coming months. You'd be a fool not to join.
Haha! Johnny Depp is my favorite item and I'm gonna purchase it
Now everyone can own Johnny Depp or Megan Fox. Oh noe, the license says I can only use Megan one time. Time to check the Extended license…
I think most investors knew it wasn't exactly a legitimate company, but with gains of over 20 000% I think a lot of investors jumped onto the bang wagon to make a quick buck – that's if they pulled out quicker enough before the SEC suspended trading

Diaconu: I did not lose this fight
By Dave Spencer / Fightnews Canada
Bruised and swollen, Adrian Diaconu had little to say after his loss to Jean Pascal, other than he thought he had won the fight. Diaconu spat out his mouthpiece and ran across the ring with his arm raised as the fight ended, only to have the scorecards tell another story. American judges Richard Flaherty and Julie Lederman both saw Pascal winning the fight by scores of 118-110 and 117-111 while Claude Paquette of Montreal thought the same and ruled 117-111 for Pascal.
"My feeling is that in my soul, I did not lose this fight," said Diaconu afterwards, still trying to piece together what happened. "My feeling is that I won about eight rounds, something like that. I won this fight, to me there's something fishy, I really don't want to talk about it. I've boxed for twenty years and this is my feeling."
Most ringside media fell into two camps, those who fell in line with the official scorecards and those who saw a much closer fight, but with Pascal still winning. Fightnews scored the bout 116-112 in favour of Pascal.
At 26-2, Pascal is the only boxer who has defeated Diaconu after winning the WBC light-heavyweight title against him in June by a closer 116-112, 116-111 and 115-111.
The 31 year-old vowed to continue on in an attempt to regain his title. "I'm not going to quit like this, I'm not going to give up. I'm going to be back, don't worry about that."
Diaconu was apologetic for his remarks, saying what he really felt doing his best to make it not sound bitter and gave credit to Pascal. "He's a great puncher, he's strong and he's fast, but for a title fight, it's normal. I hurt him a couple of times, that's boxing."
Trainer Pierre Bouchard felt his fighter controlled the action and that Pascal fought only thirty seconds in most of the rounds. "Jean looked flashy at times," said Bouchard, "It's disappointing to me though that a flash of ten seconds is enough to win a round, if that's the case I might have to change my style of coaching. I thought we controlled the action, with the jab, with body shots. I find it tough to agree they gave him that many rounds.
"I don't see the fight that way, but three judges did, so probably I'm wrong."

So why does the Borough push the snow off the road onto the shoulder, only to come back and push the snow farther back on the shoulder? The truck usually makes one pass to open the road up so residents may get in and out. Then the truck comes back to widen the road and then the shoulders for future snow accumulation. Residents sometimes call and ask why we cannot pick up the blade when going by their driveway. This is not a practical solution and our drivers would never finish clearing the roads due to the multitude of driveways.
Property owners are always responsible for clearing snow and ice along their sidewalk frontage, crosswalk ramps, corners and bus stops with concrete pads within 24 hours after the snow stops.
It is not the policy of the Borough to direct any resident or citizen where to park in an emergency (i.e. we do not require residents to park in alleys when a snow emergency is declared), we can only instruct where parking is not permitted.
During the winter each storm poses unique problems to snowplow operators. Storms with low temperatures can be difficult because de-icing agents become less effective at the lower temperatures. Storms with high winds also are a challenge because the snow quickly blows back onto the roadway after the plows pass. ?

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Hi & thanks for using our service. I'll do my best to give you a complete & accurate answer. Please ask me to clarify anything you don't understand.
The key lies in the terms of the trust.
What was going on with the trust before your mother died?
Who were/are the trustees
Did the trust become irrevocable when she died ?
When you say there were claims against her "estate", what estate? What was in her estate? Was there a probate estate?
Was there an estate tax return necessary?
We really need to be on here at the same time in order to resolve this; if we aren't on together tonight, can you leave me a time when you can be on again & I'll try & meet your schedule if I can.
It was an irrevocable trust set up putting the property in my brother & my names in order to avid probate. Her caretaker had charged about $75,000 on my mom's credit cards - a few of the bills I paid & other's filed claim on her estate. The judge ruled there was no estate remaining - however, the creditors did not show up in court (Baldwin County, Alabama). My brother was the Power of Attorney person designated to oversee(?)the estate. My understanding was that the estate (property) was transferred automatically at the time of her death but the "estate" was not formally closed by the judge until a year and a half ago, I believe. I also don't know if the property was actually considered part of "the estate". Since I sold the property as soon as I felt it appropriate "after the gulf oil spill" and decision by the judge - I still thought of ity as excempt from an inheritance tax - but hadn't even considered capital gains. Thanks, Nancy
I will be available tomorrow & will respond to an email or text(NNN) NNN-NNNNatt wireless
OK, I will try to engage you in the morning; we aren't allowed to contact you outside of JustAnswer. Usually phone numbers & email addresses are blanked out;
got t - but I'm here now if you're still on. n
I was, but saw you were offline, so I didn't hang around, I've been answering someone else's questions; It's !AM now & I've had enough for tonight..................
Let me know when you're back on line by typing something here, & I'll get a message & I'll come back as soon as I can (i may be working with someone else)
It is 9:54 AM now
I'm here when u are. Nancy B
Me too
Let me reread where we are
Are you there?
ok, now what you're telling me about the trust situation is confusing; so let's start from the beginning
Where was you're mother living when she set up the trust?
you're = your
on the farm (property) in the trust.
who were the trustees
I was tyhere also - caretaking her for the last few months. Therte were no trustees - just asn executor of her will.
No. If she had a trust, any kind of trust, there had to be trustees
Even if it was just her
I need to go home & search for the documents - will you be on later today?
will you tell me the documents yoiu need?
Sure. But tell me. Why do you think that there was an irrevocable trust? Are you sure that the trust wasn't part of her will?
I don't know.
You need the trust, if there is one; A copy of the will; a deed if there is one to you & the closing documents on the sale
It was set up by an attorney who died before she did.
That doesn't matter as long as we can sort out what actually happened
What does your brother say about all this?
Thanks. I'll look for the documents and be back. Should I try to scan it in? n
No that won't work, nor is it necessary; once you have the documents, I know what to look for
He's less savy than me - which is rough - but its not contentious.
Any idea what time you'll be back on?
don't worry, I do this all the time; it is confusing sometimes even to us; so it's no wonder you don't understand it all;
What state are you in?
oh i see Georgia
Georgia. Thanks. I'll be back & just stay on until you have time? n
the property is on the Gulf coast - Fairhope, AL
if you come back to this question, and make a note, i will get an instant message that your're here
got it. Thanks. Nancy
ok Nancy, I'm Steve; will help when you come back :]
y'all come back now, hear?
I'm back! Sorry it's taken so long. I found my mother's will which originated in 1993 and was finally probated on Nov 20, 2009. The Court date was November 16, 2009.
I called my brother's attorney. The attorney didn't understand the trust either but said the date her will was probated and the property was in the will. I sold the property to her neighbor on 12-21-2010. The amount recieved was around 199,300.
Her death was 2/09/2008
If the property passed to you via the will, then it wasn't in the trust; possibly she had a trust that wasn't funded,
Anyway, your income tax basis would be the fair market value at your mother's date of death.
What does that mean? "income tax basis"
It means your cost for income tax purposes in computing gain or loss.
Was the property subdivided?
Are you saying I have to claim that amount as income for 2010 on my taxes and there's nothing else I can do?
I'm say that you probably have no gain or loss or very little.
How do I reflect that in filing?
You have to figure out what the fair market value of just what you sold was at your mother's date of death.
Turb tax says since more than 2 yrs had passed since her death - it could no longer be counted as an inheritance - or perhaps I misunderstood?
You need to start by answering my questions. Was the property subdivided at the time your mother died or did you subdivide it later so you could sell it.
Forget what you think turbo tax says............that's not what it means
It was already divided into 2 parts - but I'm not certain about that. It was still listed in her name.
So how did you split it with your brother, ie determine who got what?
It was listed in her will - and she told us.
So, in the will, she left you one parcel & your brother the other, right?
Let me read again quickly
ok take your time
Also, while you're typing, tell me how you came up with the selling price & did you pay a sales commission?
Although I recall seeing the specific property description somewhere - the will simply leaves 40 acres to be divided between my brother and myself. Her wishes, however, were clear.
sorry. They were my neighbors and called, asked if they could buy it. I said 200,000 & they said yes. No realtor involved.
And you're sure the title to the property was still in her NAME AlONE when she died?
What can I do to be certain?
Do you have a copy of the deed you gave the buyers?
For some reason, I do believe our names were added to the property but the documentation wasn't completed. I'm listed as the "grantor" with the property sale. n
that's ok, do you have the deed. that's my question
I have a certified copy of the warrenty deed at closing.
I mean to say that I don't have the original.
doesn't matter, so you have a copy in front of you now?
ok good
look for the section which should be right near the beginning that starts .................."for my title.................."
when you find it, tell me what is says as far as where your title came from, ie who or what; in may have 1 or 2 links ie see deed of....................xyz to........zxy............from etc.
There's nothinglike that. It says "Nancy Norene Boothe"..the Grantor, for in consideration of $10 and other considerations...do hereby ...grant, bargan, sell and convey to Matthew Combs... then it decribes the property and documention (description) of the two easements
it also says [on the title search document]
the taxes are accessed to lb boothe (life estate) pin # XXXXX with an assessed value of $900 with no homestead or improvements ...taxes paid of $21 for 1010 - the property had been considered wetlands?
the title reference should be right after what you wrote, or there should be another deed into you from you & your brother
Oh so your mother had a life estate in the property?
That makes a giant difference (good difference);
This is the danger of trying to get into too much online................
good news?
She must have conveyed the property to either you & your brother or the irrevocable trust (if there even is one) before she died, reserving a life estate in the property.................
you know what a life estate is right?
what did the attorney you spoke with say, exactly if you remember
I don't recall. He was the one that said I shouldn't have to pay taxes on it - but wasn't qualified to make that actual legal advice....
a life estate means your mother reserved the right to live and or use the property as she wished until her death, so whoever she granted to property to, as I just noted above couldn't do anything with it until she died
In this last conversation - what I relayed in the earlier is pretty close to a quote.
Moreover, for estate tax purposes, if she had a taxable estate, the property would have been included in her estate just as if she never transferred it to anyone...................
got it - so the probate settlement date is when it was conveyed to me?
No. For real estate it would be her date of death.
I would use your selling price as the cost also, and you would add to that any closing costs you had, deed stamps, attorney's fees etc., and then the selling price is the gross price in the deed & you should have a loss; it will be a long-term loss.
Too bad I didn't know about the life estate in the beginning..............oh well, alls well that ends well..............the point is no tax!
The closing documents are done and (perhaps) the 1099 has been sent to the government. How can I change that?
I still would be curious to know what the deed you gave the buyer says about how you acquired title.............
What do you want to change?
is "fee simple" a means of obtaining title?
the 1099-B reports "gross proceeds", not the gain or loss; what's on the 1099-B?
yes but what does it say ; what else?
I dont have it yet - I don't think it's been sent
It should have the gross selling price, but that isn't what you pay taxes on; right, you get that, right?
no - I didn't get that. It has "gross proceeds: $200,000"
maybe that's the word i missed in turbo tax?
what has that on it, I thought you said you didn't receive it yet?
What do you mean Turbo Tax? You entered it in Turbo Tax & it came out as taxable?
When I was looking for the documents - I found a letter from them requesting my taxpayor ID - this was part of the letter. n
If so, that's because you probably didn't enter any "cost" figure.
They said the gross proceeds would be 200,000?
I had not replyed yet. I gave them my ss# XXXXX when I called.
That might be all you get; a substitute 1099-B............
Oh boy.........no wonder
How do I correct to include cost or do I do that in my filing? n
Can I ask them to file a revised 10099-B
You need to adopt your own CPA................it is a good think I have a soft spot for that Southern accent
What do you want them to revise? It sounds right to me.
Gross proceeds is all they report.
the land sale you made is like a stock sale ; you bought it for 10. sold it for 25. you pay tax on 15, not 25.
You're right about that! I'm grateful for all the time you've taken with this ...so sorry ...you have the makin's of a southern gentleman. So - I need to do the rest of this in my filing?
In your case, due to the rules your "cost" becomes the fair market value at your mother's date of death + closing costs.
Oh I see what you mean, did Turbo Tax show up with that big profit?
Yes - but I suppose TT is limited to my input! Now I've got it - and there's a place for that on the tax form? I just need to find it? A sense of calm is overtaking me!
you don't need to be sorry, this is what I use to do for a living.......before most of my brain cells died
I'm available for adoption :]
I'm so glad you jumped to doing this - as soon as I figure out where I made my mistake in turbo tax - I'm back in business. You may have been the best news this year! Thanks
so around where it says "fee simple" doesn't say somewhere on that deed who or what owned the property before you?
and ---the adoption sounds possible! n
Please remember to "Accept", it is the only way we get credit for our work. Feedback, if you have time, and bonuses, where you think they are warranted, are always most appreciated.
no - I couldn't even find the "fee simple" language again.
Come back if you have trouble with Turbo Tax, I have it on my computer
By the way, I'm 63 & I once was married to a Southern girl & i went to the University of Miami where we stood up when the band played Dixie
will give raving feedback, bonus and be back if I have problems with Turbo Tax! Thanks BIG! BTW - me, too. (on the Dixie ovation...my my!
OK good working with you, I'll prepare the adoption papers

Fall Semester Day of Service scheduled for September 18
Posted by Judy Korn on Friday, Sep. 10, 2010
The Office of Community Engagement will host a Fall Semester Day of Service to give students an opportunity to learn about and give back to the regional community.
The service day will be held on Saturday, September 18, 2010. Students will choose one of eight projects that address community needs at a variety of agencies. Community partners include Grandview Apartments, Habitat for Humanity, Prairie Horizons Farm, Prairie Renaissance Cultural Alliance, The Salvation Army, Someplace Safe, the Stevens County Food Shelf, the Morris Theatre, and West Wind Village. Students will be doing projects ranging from selling items for a fundraiser to coordinating a Bingo game for elders to helping with a harvest at a sustainable family farm.
Students will convene on the top floor of the Dining Hall at noon. They will choose their project and meet with their small groups over lunch. Student leaders will provide background information about each agency and the social issues each agency addresses. They will also receive pre-service training needed for them to be successful on site. Lunch is provided free of charge to students who participate.
Students will then go to their sites and spend about four hours providing service to the agency they have selected. At the end of the day, students will meet at East Side Park for a meal and reflection on their work. Supper will be provided free of charge to students who do not have a campus meal plan. The rain site is the Otter Tail Power Community Room.
To register, students should contact the Office of Community Engagement by calling 320-589-6276. Please include your name, e-mail address, and phone number in the message. Students are welcome to attend even if they are not pre-registered, but pre-registration will help with planning for the event.
The Office of Community Engagement seeks to engage members of the broader community and students, faculty, and staff in meaningful, reciprocal course-based and co-curricular partnerships that meet identified community needs advance the campus mission, learning outcomes, and key campus priorities and work toward more vibrant, just, and inclusive communities.

If one had already seen last Monday's Look Around You, BBC2's affectionate spoof of Tomorrow's World, it was virtually impossible to watch Wednesday's How To Sleep Better without sniggering.
The latter was 90 minutes of potentially helpful and inevitably interactive public broadcasting, starring Prof Lord Sir Robert Winston (starting to look like a Muppet of himself - the missing link between Bert and Ernie?) whose voice is a parody of the perfectly patronising and entirely untrustworthy bedside manner.
In fact, if His Knightship's pleasantly modulated tones ('10, nine ...') were the last ones ('eight ...') I heard before the anaesthetic kicked-in ('seven, six ...'), there would almost certainly be a nanosecond of blind thrashing panic when I imagined I was about to be operated on by the entire cast of Green Wing ('Nurse! The small screen!').
Anyway the similarities between contemporary pop-science programming and a parody of creaky old pop-science programming were, I think you'll agree, quite striking. For instance How To Sleep Better asked us questions such as:
Q: How likely are you to fall asleep after eating a fine luncheon and drinking a yard of cider?
a) Without fail,
b) Couldn't rule it out,
c) Only on a bank holiday.
Ha! Trick question! It's 2005 so I only drink cider by the metre!
... While Look Around You 's very hilarious 'Music 2000' competition ('tonight's show is all about the world and the future of music ...') featured questions such as:
Q: What does the abbreviation Hi-Fi stand for?
A: High-Figh
Robert Winston patrolled a set that looked like that room in the Science Museum with the steam engines, only made over by Anna Ryder Richardson, while the presenters of Look Around You were marooned in an authentically lo-tech (it stands for 'lo-tech') and taxpayertastically cheap white studio.
Interestingly, I learnt more from Look Around You than I did from How To Sleep Better. For instance, HTSB taught me that I don't have a sleep problem and, therefore, probably don't really need to sleep any better than I do (though an hour or two in bed with the papers on a Sunday morning wouldn't go amiss). This in itself marks HTSB as perhaps the least revelatory television since any episode of EastEnders with a storyline about marital breakdown and/or dodgy gangsters.
Other startling non-revelations during HTSB included the fact that both shift-work and long-haul flights play havoc with your sleep patterns, while a late-night snack of stilton and port before repairing to a mattress stuffed with peas in a bedroom painted blood-red ensures one's dreams are Amityville Horror -style nightmares replete with talking pigs' heads. And, finally, if you are the owner of a toddler the only way you will be guaranteed eight hours uninterrupted sleep before June 2008 is if you put it into care. So, no surprises there.
Meanwhile over at LAY I learnt loads. Including the fact that many women may want to take a long hard look at LAY presenters Pealy Maghti (Josie D'Arby) and Pam Bachelor (Olivia Coleman) before indulging themselves in this year's predicted culottes revival. And then, having watched Music 2000 contestant Anthony Carmichael perform his 'Rapping Song', I can't help thinking Usher may not be quite the urban-muzak trail-blazer he'd like the Young People to think he is.
But one thing puzzled me: surely the popular music charts are compiled by a system of pneumatic tubes which convey sales information straight from shop tills to the mainframe computers of the Royal Pop and Rock Association (situated in Tin Pan Alley, London W1)? Otherwise, how else do we explain the fact that roughly 1,500 sales will generally secure the No.1 slot?
Anyway, insomnia-sufferers may well have found that the most effective cure for their condition could be a worthy-but-dull 90 minutes of public service broadcasting, while Look Around You helped to answer some of the really Big and Important questions of our time, such as:
Q: Whatever happened to Harry Enfield's career?
And thusly I deploy clever sleight-of-mind techniques in order to segue neatly into a review of C4's Bodyshock: The Man Who Slept for 19 Years (Though Happily Not as a Result of Watching Something Boring on the BBC Because, Being an American, He Would Almost Certainly Have Sued Had This Been The Case).
After a car crash in 1984, 19-year-old Terry Wallis fell into a coma. Sandy, his 15 year-old wife (we're talking the Ozark mountains in Arkansas here), soon divorced him and took their baby daughter Amber off to the city where little Amber grew up to become a stripper. This is the kind of family news that would tip most fathers straight out of a coma, but not Terry who stayed at home in a persistent vegetative state while his mom, Angilee, carried on treating him as though he was just having a doze after supper.
Then, in 2003, Terry defied medical science. Having slept through a handful of American presidencies, a brace of wars, the birth of the personal computer and the mobile phone, he not only woke up but started talking. And by some extraordinary miracle his first words weren't the lyrics to Duran Duran's 'Wild Boys'. Nor were they 'Mom, have I been in the shower for the last 19 years, or was that just a dream?'
And for those viewers either too young or merely completely uninterested in recalling Bobby Ewing's extraordinarily dramatic resurrection in Dallas, there were nonetheless some spooky parallels, though thankfully Terry's mom had seen fit to divest him of the mullet. But that's enough 1980s jokes.
Terry's story was touching, yet also entirely unsatisfying in that, due to his severely damaged frontal lobes, Terry can't retain new information and therefore believes his 40th birthday to be his 20th, that Reagan is still president and refuses to accept pregnant Amber as his daughter because the last time he saw her she was a babe in arms, as opposed to a babe-with-child.
But this wasn't really a story about Terry at all, it was mostly a sweet tribute to the devotion of Angilee and, latterly, Amber, who came straight home to help look after Pop when she heard he'd woken up. Both of whom, never having left the deep south, accompanied Terry to visit the brain doctors on the east coast, where collective bafflement was the order of the day. 'I'll break your nose if you say I'm in New Jersey,' Terry threatened. I sympathised - I felt much the same way when I was stuck in the back of a runaway cab with a driver who lost his way en route from Newark airport to West 44th St.
Anyway there was a lot of love around Terry, which meant he had a better quality of life than one might have expected. Far worse off was Briton Roy King, after a relatively minor car accident.
Clare and Roy had been teenage sweethearts and by now were married with a baby son, Max, but after the accident the something-odd about Roy that Clare had mistaken for shock turned out to be far more sinister. Though he walks and talks and looks like Roy, due to some microscopic damage to his frontal lobes this husk of a Roy has lost the ability to love or empathise or even care very much about anything, including his previously much-loved wife and son.
For reasons best known to herself, Clare is sticking with this version of Roy, the one who can't work, who has 'violent thoughts', who when asked if he loves his wife says, in front of her, 'Yeah, we've been together so long it's like an arm, really. Like part of the furniture.'
Watching this version of Roy you could feel a little bit sorry for the lost Mr Nice-Guy, but mostly you felt achingly sorry for Clare and Max. In fact you wanted to shout, 'Get out now!'. Roy wants to go himself, partly in order to 'leave Clare to get her love, or whatever she needs, somewhere else.' Watching Roy talk like this was a bit like watching a cold-blooded sociopath sitting guilty-but-unrepentant in the dock, even if I've only seen them in the movies.
Now I'm normally a big fan of C4's programme titles but that naughty channel led us right up the garden path with last Thursday's marathon The Real Da Vinci Code. After two whole hours of Grail-hunting, Tony Robinson revealed that Dan Brown's 2004 superseller wasn't actually an exhaustively researched work of historical fact but ... a great big kitten-crushing slab of pulp fiction for which many thousands of trees had needlessly given their lives! Gee! What a relentless rollercoaster of revelations last week turned out to be!

Winchester Cathedral
The ninth century Saxon king Alfred the Great had fought a long war against Danish invaders, between 870 and his death sometime around the year 900. Alfred the Great's success was both to resist the Danes, and also to find a way of living with them. He helped negotiate the division of England into Saxon territory in the west, and Danish territory, known as the Danelaw, in the east. Alfred's son and successor Edward the Elder, conquered all Danish territory south of the Humbar. His successor Athelstan defeated a coalition of Celtic and Norse people around 937 at the battle of Brunanburh. Following Brunanburh Athelstan also conquered Northumbria from Eric Bloodaxe. After all these years of struggle, Edgar the Peaceable took the throne of Wessex in 959. Then in a crucial symbolic gesture Edgar the Peaceable was rowed down the river Dee by eight regional kings as a sign of their submission to his overall power. It was in this period that England came into being. A tenth century chronicler said "Britain is now called England (Engla land)". Communities within the country still thought of themselves as separate, but there now existed the over-arching idea of one country.
Almost immediately, however, the fledgling country seemed to fall apart. A new wave of Norse offensives began, with attacks in 1003, and 1014. The early part of this period saw Ethelred the Unready struggling with these new invasions. Ethelred was not the most impressive of kings. He made many futile attempts to buy the Scandinavians off, before characteristically lashing out at his own people in frustration. Following hundreds of years of invasion, and eventual co-existence, Danes were established in England, particularly in the east. Even though the Danish community had shown no likelihood of rebellion, 1002 saw Ethelred give the desperate order that all Danes living in England were to be killed. This caused a general Danish rising, and brought retribution from Denmark. In 1003 Sweyn Forkbeard, King of Denmark landed in the Humbar, drove Ethelred into exile, and took over the country.
The Thames, scene of Canute's election
Sweyn was only King of England for a few weeks. He died on 3rd February 1014. The Danish fleet in the Thames then elected Sweyn's son Knutr, variously spelt Cnut or Canute, as king. The English ruling council, or Witan deciding it was better to stick with the devil you know, wrote to Ethelred and implored him to return. Ethelred, characteristically, did not return himself, but instead sent his youngest son Edward back to face the dangers of the situation. Once it seemed clear that there was still support for Ethelred in England, Ethelred himself led an expedition to the east of the country. Taken by surprise Canute took to his ships and decided to head back to Denmark for reinforcements. Ethelred finding no Danes to fight took out his frustration, as usual, on his own people, ravaging the province of Lindsey which had given support to Canute.
Ethelred's eldest son Edmund now took over effective authority, while his ailing father took refuge in London. In 1016 Edward led resistance to Canute who had now returned with his additional soldiers. When Ethelred died on 23rd April 1016, Edmund was proclaimed king, but only in London. The Witan meeting in Southampton, home of the Danish fleet, now had little choice but to declare for Canute. Edmund led a vigorous resistance, earning the name "Ironside" before being defeated at Ashington in Essex on 18th October 1016. Edmund fled west and tried to continue the struggle, his doggedness reminiscent of Alfred struggling against the Scandinavians two centuries before. Edmund's continued defiance forced Canute into negotiation. The two kings met on an island in the river Severn at Athelney near Gloucester. Here England was carved up between them. Edmund was given Wessex while Canute had everything else. Since the time of Alfred things had come full circle. Once again Wessex was the last Saxon kingdom holding out against the Danes. Then, unexpectedly Edmund died, on 30th November 1016, perhaps from wounds suffered at Ashington. He was buried at Glastonbury Abbey, beside his grandfather Edgar the Peaceable. Edmund's death left Canute as ruler of all England.
Canute now went through one of those transformations you often see in soap operas. A new character comes in, bristling and fearsome, and slowly changes into a cuddly and much loved national institution. This is what happened to Canute. Initially he was certainly a feared figure. When forced to retreat following Ethelred's return in 1014, Canute paused long enough to send ashore a number of English hostages minus their ears, noses and hands. But from this unpromising beginning, Canute turned out to be a very pleasant surprise for England. As early as 1018, in only his second year as king, Canute was telling his subjects that he wanted to rule as Edgar the Peaceable did. He worked to reinstate Edgar's law codes, and turned enthusiastically to Christianity.
Canute now split England into four earldoms; Northumbria, East Anglia, Mercia and Wessex. The famous story of Canute trying to keep back the sea was supposedly a demonstration of the limits of a king's power, and the necessity of relying on his earls to help rule the four kingdoms. Canute's reign, like that of his new hero Edgar the Peaceable, is distinguished by the Anglo Saxon Chronicle having little to say about it. No news is good news, and the lack of comment is a sign that England was peaceful at this time. Unpleasantness such as the elimination of professional traitor Eadric Streona, was dealt with promptly. In 1017 the cost of Canute's campaign of conquest was met with a final demand that England pay £72,000. This money was paid with the assurance that no more money would be asked for, and that in the future Canute would rule fairly. This he did.
The most endearing documents surviving from Canute's reign are letters he sent home to his councilors during trips abroad. They tell friends back home that he is doing well, and that he is thinking of them and their interests. This is the opening of a letter written in Denmark, around 1019 - 1020:
"King Cnut greets in friendship his archbishops and his diocesan bishops, and Earl Thorkel and all his earls, and all his people, whether men of twelve hundred wergild, or a two hundred, ecclesiastic and lay, in England." (Quoted in The Saxon Kings by Richard Humble P163- 164)
The generosity of the greeting, to rich and not so rich, to churchmen and lay people, is beguiling. A highpoint of Canute's reign was a journey to Rome in 1027 to attend the coronation of the new emperor Conrad. As usual Canute wrote one of his letters home. In it he describes how well he is received by European leaders, and what lovely gifts he has been given. He describes a conversation in which he argued for better safeguards for pilgrims travelling in Europe. But the letter is careful not to brag. It is written in the spirit of wanting England to share in his success:
"But I send ahead this letter in order that all the people of my kingdom may be gladdened at my success, because as you yourselves know, I have never spared - nor will I spare in the future - to devote myself and my toil for the need and benefit of all my people." (Quoted Humble P 171)
So, in a peaceful, un-newsworthy fashion Canute's rule passed, the king dying on 12th November 1035. A mortuary chest containing his remains can still be seen at Winchester Cathedral. Coins from Canute's reign can be seen at the British Museum.
Canute was succeeded by his two sons, Harold and then Harthacnut.

I've been shooting a SBE II for the last 6 years but now have my eye on a new Super Vinci. http://www.benelliusa.com/super-vinci-shotgun
I would like to hear opinions only from guys that either own both guns or have extensive experience shooting both of them.
Just handling them over the gun counter the SV feels better in hand then my SBE II. For some reason the Benellis just seem to fit me better then some of the other high end autos. I know a gas auto has less felt recoil but I just don't care for the balance of the gas autos.
I currently own and shoot the Benelli SBE II, Benelli Ultra Light, and the Winchester Super X3 early edition. The X3 is a nice gun but spends a lot of time in the back of the closet because I'm always grabbing my Benelli's when I head out the door.
I have a friend who just purchased the new A5 who really likes it & claims it has less felt recoil then my X3 I was trying to sell him. I will say the new A5 does feel pretty good in hand and fits me pretty well but the SV just feels better to me.

Overall, the OTC sector in 2013 realized $40.2 billion in sales, according to data culled from OTC categories tracked by IRI. That's up from the $38.3 billion that DSN reported last year. The 2013 sales numbers reflect a strong 2012-2013 cough-cold season and the relaunch of Tylenol, Excedrin and Motrin.
The aging of the baby boomer is reflected across the best-selling OTC brands. Two of the top five brands are pain relievers. The adult incontinence brand Poise holds the No. 2 spot in terms of OTC sales, and standing at No. 6 is Ensure's RTD protein shakes.
While baby boomers will continue to drive the pound of cure, overall more Americans are more often seeking their ounce of prevention. According to Bain & Co.'s recent Healthy Living Survey, 75% of consumers are in pursuit of a healthier lifestyle. Take that predominant mindset, coupled with the outcomes-driven preventive focus associated with the Affordable Care Act, and you have a formula for OTC success at retail pharmacy.
Retailers are already supplying preventive health solutions. H-E-B and Rediclinic last month augmented its Weigh Forward weight-loss clinic with an online component. Also, GlaxoSmithKline and Walgreens teamed up to launch Sponsorship to Quit, a free online quit-smoking program.

Recommendations? Anyone?
So I've finally separated body from chassis on my 1934 Olds. I'm in the process of removing fittings, brackets, etc and digging dirt and debris from the frame rails. During my little chore I've discovered that the insides of the main rails where the engine compartment would be are badly rusted. The rust appears to penetrate about half the thickness of the rail in quite a few spots and flakes off in thick chunks. I won't know the full extent of things until I blast the frame but it looks quite bad.
I'm looking for options here.
I'm a newbie at all this so fabricating a new chassis is out of my league, and buying a new frame just isn't in the budget. Should I look at sliding a chassis from something else under my project or can I cut off the front part of the chassis and graft on something from a modern car like a Camaro. My brother-in-law is a welder so I have that covered (he's gonna teach me as we go along).
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Patch it if it don't work!
If the rust is as bad as you say it is, then you could cut out the rusted sections, and patch the frame with thicker pieces. But make sure your welds are good before you attempt this. Are you going to learn MIG or TIG?
Do a search on the knowledge base
And search the project journals...there has been a lot said about frame swaps..adding late model front ends and all that in earlier posts..
Take your time and do some research and I am sure you will come up with an answer..
Welcome aboard...
I have tried most all of it and now do what is known to work..
After you blast, if the rust damage is all the way through simply cut out the damaged area and replace with new metal. If you're going to slip in a modern V8 I would also suggest boxing the frame from the front crossmember back to the trans mount crossmember. It will add stiffness and strength to the frame and in most cases it will make the installation of the new motor mounts easier.
Neat thing about this frame is that it is already "pre-boxed" from factory in the area your mentioned. The sections are riveted together so I would just weld it for added strength.
I'm not going to be able to get to blasting till next week as I work the next 5 days but I'll take a pic or two and try post them tonight if possible. The rust is inside the boxed area outside rail on the passenger side...not sure if it will be visible in the photos.
1954 AD Lover
Here's some pic's ...kinda hard to see the problem without blasting.
The yellow line is the interface between the 2 parts of the chassis rail and the white lines roughly show the boundary of the rusted section (half way thru the thickness or more). The section appears to be about 18-22 inches long. The problem is not evident on the driver's side so I think the car must have been sitting such that water pooled on the passenger's side for long periods of time (before it was dragged from the field).
Anyways have a look and let me know what some of you think.
1954 AD Lover
i would put angle iron thru those factory cutout holes in frame and weld it in . not the best way but will do the job if on a budget or cut that section out and use angle iron for that (edge - corner )
With a frame in that good of shape (almost new by the pictures) I think you have a lot to work with if that is the only bad spot you have. That can easly be cut out and repaired with either angle steel or two pieces of flat steel. The question is are you going to want to replace the front suspension to something newer or just rebuild the old suspension, what type of rearend will you use new or old suspension in the rear. If you think that you might want to change the whole frame for one that is newer with better suspension, than to locate one that will come close measure you frame length and width, wheel center to wheel center, and start looking for a small truck frame that will come close to your size and start adapting, wheel center to wheel center is the most critical of measurements, frame width and length can be adjusted fairly easy, I would check for the size of a 1500 S10 two wheel drive it may be close. Everyone has alot of answers here on the board with alot of knowledge, I have all the confidence in the world that if I can learn here and do things (cause I'm stupid, dumb and incompetent) then I know that you can do what needs to be done.
by the way WELCOME
And as for suspension 30D I dont think I'll rebuild the original since its bent, smashed, or missing. I was thinking 2nd gen camaro for the rear as the size and trackwidth are very close to the original (less the tunneled driveshaft). As for the front I am leaning toward IFS but grafting a 2nd gen camaro front clip/ subframe isn't out of the question either. I looked into S10/15 chassis for the car as well and the wheelbase of the truck is only 3-4 inches longer than the car- I just haven't found a trackwide measurement for comparison yet.
My head hurts....repair, swap, or graft new IFS and IRS onto old. Guess I got some thinking to do.
Thanks for input all, greatly appreciated.
1954 AD Lover
If you're thinking of a front clip then I would suggest a Nova instead of a Camaro. The 30's cars are a bit narrower than the later cars and a Nova clip is a bit narrower than the Camaro but provides you with the same advantages. Measure your front track width to be sure.
I would think that even a Nova clip may be a bit wide.....I have one in my 51 pickup, and it's just barely narrow enough for it. I would think a 30s car would be narrower......Of course, wheel offset may help too.....I may be wrong.
Keep it
Welcome to the board.
First up, most frames of that era used the inverted channel method as a strengthener. Most builders ditch this part and box the inside of the rail in its entirety. The reason is that you will likely need to remove the old x member anyway for clearance of late model trans and running gear and make your own x member.
I would tend to retain the stock frame rails up front as in most thirties cars the front sheetmetal, radiator etcetra relies on the frame for location. Believe me it is easier to set up a suspension swap than rehash the entire sheet metal mounting.
For a suspension donor I have used Toyota 2wheel drive torsion bar set ups on Fords and Chevys of this era. The Toyota is almost perfect in width, has nice disc brakes and a Ford bolt pattern. I could adjust the bars so that the nose of my 34 roadster was 2 inches off the ground !
To install: The front frame member is cut out of the donor as aframe from behind the torsion bar , then the new crossmember has a rectangular hole cut on either side to the dimension of the rails where the crossmember will end up, and is slid onto the frame; bit of mucking around now; dummy the front fenders back in place and make sure the wheels are positioned right - you should have set the ride height up before now.. Use a datum point (the front perch of the rear spring is a good one on GMs) from the back of the frame on either side then measure diagonally to be sure that both sides are the same on either side so that it can be slid over the rails to the ideal position ( of course the front tie bar has to come out) after a bit of positioning, (I usually sneak the front axle forward an inch so the wheels are more centred in the opening); The torsion bars are then slid in and in most cases the rear torsion bar crossmember can be trimmed a little and re used, then with some 3mm plate the new front end is tied into the old chassis.The radius struts are reversed and a simple mount is made off the frame rail. Now you have a strong cool looking independant front suspension which fits under your fenders and can get you low! I will try to organise some pics of this swap and send them to you, I need to get the pics scanned and once I do that I will send them on.
Thanks Rob and all. I would like to see the pics when you get them scanned. Getting info from people who know what they are doing is going to make this easier that floundering around helplessly on my own.
Thanks again
1954 AD Lover
