If anything of the legendary DT 880 could have been improved, it has been realised with this version. This top headphone combines the strengths of open and closed headphones. The complete sound spectrum is reproduced in detail from the deepest sub bass to the highest highs. This semi-open, dynamic headphone is also manufactured in Germany.
The present version with 32 Ohms is suitable for the use with portable playback devices, but equally with hi-fi systems, with television or with purpose-built headphone amplifiers.

www.wired.com 12/2011Title: Beyerdynamic Headphones Are Classic Cans for Modern TimesAuthor: Bryan Gardiner[...]"The Beyerdynamic DT 880 harkens back to a time when headphones were still tools, not fashion statements.""It's the antithesis of today's streamlined, plastic pieces of head candy. In fact, it's probably no accident the latest version doesn't look all that different from the first pair that rolled off the assembly line in 1980. Obviously, the 87-year-old German audio company felt there was little need mess with what already works. Thankfully, this fealty to the headphone's rich history extends not just to design, but also sonic performance."[...]"Like other cans in this class, the 880s pack a superbly detailed soundstage, letting you pick out — and pick up on — instrumentation and nuances you'd never know where there on other headphones. This proved particularly rewarding when listening to sonic landscape master Amon Tobin's new album, ISAM. Tobin, of course, is known for crafting otherworldly — and occasionally batshit-crazy — sounds by digitally manipulating real world ones. All of these sprung to life on the 880s with impressive depth and richness. Thankfully, the 880s also come with pinpoint-accurate bass which never got in the way even when I threw heavier stuff at them. Combine those attributes with lush mids that make voices sparkle and shimmer, and it's hard to come up with any reason to dislike these monster cans.""Overall, if I had one qualm, it was that the 880s did seem to favor the higher frequencies. And depending on how you feel about treble, and what you're listening to, they can occasionally sound harsh or overly bright at times. Although this can easily be fixed with a modest EQ correction.""That slight imbalance notwithstanding, these are still some extremely accurate, even clinical-sounding headphones. So be warned: All that overcompressed drivel sitting on your MP3 player or hard drive will sound exactly like what it is, with no overblown or bloated low-end to cover up all the shortcomings. However, when paired with a quality Apple Lossless, FLAC or — even better — CD source, the 880s will definitely make you want don a smoking jacket, light up a pipe and sit by the hi-fi — er, laptop — for hours."

If you want natural, open and uncolored sound from a tough set of professional headphones, get a pair for yourself."[...]"The DT 880 sounds awesome right out of the box without any break-in."[...]"The DT880s have no response peaks or valleys to call attention to themselves, so the slight and broad balance differences are quickly forgotten. The sound of the DT 880 doesn't change much as I put my hands up to their outsides.""The DT 880s offer beautiful electrostatic sound, and they don't go Pop! when pressed to your head or demand a plug-in-the-wall bias source to drive them."[...]"The DT 880 sounds light and airy, spacious, smooth, beautiful, clean and open. WIth the DT 880, you'll hear everything right — and wrong — with your recordings."[...]The DT 880's neutral spectral balance is from the professional monitoring market, and less like boosted home hi-fi headphones. The DT 880s are dry and neutral, not warm unless something was recorded that way."[...]"With the DT 880, you'll hear everything, including conductors singing along, breathing, page turns and seat creaks. It's easy to hear the difference between condenser and ribbon mics on vocals."The Beyer DT 880 has natural, unhyped, smooth and unboosted bass and treble. Casual users may prefer the Beyer DT 990 or DT770, each of which have boosted bass and treble. The careful listener will prefer this DT 880 because it sounds right, while the boosts in the DT 990 and DT770 aren't exactly pretty."[...]"Once you get over the lack of boom and peaky bass overemphasis of lesser headphones, the Beyer DT 880 astounds with solid, undistorted bass to well below 20 Hz. Its response is strong down to 30 Hz, and still audible at 14.5 Hz! Of course below 20 Hz "audible" is more the room noise modulating itself from intermodulation with the headphone's subsonic input, but that's the way it works in live sound, too. The DT 880's bass is clean and clear with no boom, so the deepest bass isn't hidden behind it. Even driven to deafening levels with a real headphone amplifier, I can't get sine waves to buzz, rattle or distort. Pedals sound natural."[...]

Stereo 06/2015Title: Beyer's old schoolAuthor: Tom FrantzenTranslated from the original German article[...]
When beyerdynamic launched their legendary DT 880 top model in 1980/81 it was like a small landslide. [...]The best working tool of the old school was and is the neutral DT 880. The same refers to musical enjoyment, at least when you do without effects and allow for long listening sessions.
[...]The new DT 880, however, with the same name since 2003, is from its appearance a completely different headphone. Almost 100 grams heavier, equipped with noble and high-quality aluminium parts. Compared to its predecessor, it is technically rather light and haptic according to beyerdynamic – that is heavily revised.
[...] The author to these lines wrote in the June issue of Stereo in 2003: "Remoulded headphone classic with a very excellent sound" and "a captivating natural, lively and powerful sound."The pressure is slightly higher, but is reduced by the better and pleasant pads. The sound of the DT 880 is therefore a little bit mature, the bass is more powerful, more sonorous in total, but still transparent.
pure value Ausg. 4, 11/2014Title: Plenty of individualityAuthor: Andreas GüntherTranslated from the original German article[...]
For large auditoriums there are customised microphone concepts, for individual ears unique headphone are manufactured. The lot size of one becomes a core message at the company's headquarters in Heilbronn. On their website beyerdynamic provide a headphone configurator, like the car industry, for the DT 880 and DT 990 over-ear headphones. Which colour, which leather, perhaps a plate with your name? This is a good sign: The individuality costs only a little more than the standard model; at best a modest waiting time of two weeks.
"If you're unfamiliar with headphones of this caliber, you will discover new things in music that you had never heard before."[...]
"The clarity of sound and images are striking." "The comfort of these headphones can not be beaten."[...]
"The high frequencies sound crystal clear without ever coming across as unpleasant, the balanced mids sound analytical and strong, and the bass is voluminous without being too obtrusive." [...]
"[...] making everything from rock music to country sound rich and immersive. The DT 880 headphones are also very comfortable during long listening sessions [...]"
"They're the most comfortable headphones I've ever used, the sound is crystal clear, and their design makes me proud to show them off to people who like to brag about their electronics." [...]"True sound definition and phenomenal bass response."[...]
FAS 03/2012Title: Listen closelyAuthor: Marco DettweilerTested: Beyerdynamic DT 880, Sony MDR-XB1000, AKG K550, Monster Beats Mixr, Audiotechnica ATH-ES88, Sennheiser Amperior
Translated from the original German test report
[...]Beyerdynamic has found the happy medium. The DT 880 is so-to-speak the fairest of all tested headphones. Each instrument has its chance, each frequency range is equal, each sound has its individual performance. The balanced sound allows a relaxed experience of listening. The typical beyerdynamic effect: the headphone does not neglect the deep sounds, but emphasises them when it is necessary. You listen more intense, the headphone seems to conduct music.[...]We did not find the perfect headphone, but with the DT 880 beyerdynamic is damned close: Fantastic sound, high level of comfort and precious workmanship.
Stereo 01/2007
Translated from the original German article
The classic dynamic headphone. The plush pads appease the rather high headband pressure and the live weight of 350 grams. It sounds brilliant and always harmoniously – a headphone with a spectacular bass and treble response, which, however, never sounds intrusively or coloured.
[...]Price/performance: Excellent!

Setting Up Rome Targa's
So I know how to put the bindings on the board now I need suggestions as far as position. I'm 6'1", going to be riding all mountain, and haven't boarded in 10 years. My board is a directional K2 Raygun 160W. I'll be heading to mammoth next month but not sure how the conditions will be. Since it's a resort I'm guessing I won't be in 3' deep pow.
*Stance width
*Stance front/back position
*Stance angles, I was thinking +15/-9
*Forward lean
*Highback Rotation
*Heel Strap Location
*Toe Strap Position
Stance width, angles, forward lean and strap positions are all personal preference...something ideal for me...will suck for another. You can start with those binding angles, no forward lean and reference stance width and see how you feel. If you find you are too upright...maybe widen out the stance a bit. If you feel you need more response, add some to the forward lean. Its all experimentation. In regards to highback rotation, should be parallel with the edge of your board...however, some dont even bother with this. The biggest thing is to have the targas setup to properly hung your boot...this is another issue...as you have purchased one of the most customizable bindings out there..
I currently purchased a pair myself from my LBS and needed the store guys to help me dial them in. I have never seen so many adjustments on a binding before...lol
91 Attachment(s)
you should really alter your thinking on not being in pow at Mammoth. 3' there can be had in a half a day. They had 17' in one week a few weeks ago.
So if I'm going to be at Mammoth and there is pow are there any recommendations for these settings? One thing I forgot is canter.
Usually, if your boot is centered in the binding, there is less front/back adjustment of the binding on the board.
Stance Width/Angles (personal preference) = I'm comfortable at 23.5ish c-c and 12/-12 duck. (I'm tall but have short legs)
Position - I use mirrored inserts, meaning I start with each binding at the furthest insert out from the center and move them both in until my stance is close to 23.5. Once that is done I mount one of the bindings centered on the width of the board. I use two of the 4 screws, no washers and only tighten enough so the binding doesn't shift. I then put the footbed on, grab my boot and see if my boot is centered in the binding. Mine weren't so I adjusted the heel cup to the forward most position. This is done by removing the 2 screws on the outside heel of the binding and the two screws under the toe. The heel ones are horizontal, the toe ones are vertical. It is easier to remove the binding from the board to do this so remember what hole you were in. This step can be skipped if you boot is already reasonably centered. I check by flipping toe board over with the boot strapped in and checking to see if the heel/toe overhang is even. Once the boot is centered in the binding, I remove the footbed, put in the remaining 2 screws with washers, then remove the other to and add the washers. Now boots are centered in the binding which is centered on the board. Once one binding is setup, adjust the other binding exactly how you did the first and mount.
Forward Lean - I left mine at the most upright position. This one again is personal preference.
Highback Rotation - I think I tweaked mine a bit to make them more parallel to the edge of the board.
Heel Strap Location - I left it in the same holes as stock, with the stock stiffeners in.
Toe strap location - Left stock.
Cant - I used the largest cant footbed.
Once everything is setup, I put on my boots and strap in. I adjust the length of the toe and ankle strap if needed to try and center the strap on my boot.
I realize not everyone is as anal about setting up bindings as I am but I like them to be centered. Others just mount and ride with little adjustment. It is all preference.

I am a serious Harry Potter fan who, according to one friend, "needs rehab." I like canon-compliant stories and pairings, especially Romione, which is probably evident from my stories.
You will notice I don't use British spellings. I strive to accurately portray British culture in my fics and have my characters (and JK's) behaving in culturally appropriate ways. But spelling and punctuation are tools of the writer, and I'm an American writer. I would feel incredibly pretentious using British spellings.
This isn't a story about first love. But it is a story about childhood, and making the decision to leave it.
This is really a sweet little fic. I'm glad I stumbled upon in it the review drive. I should know better than to skip over fics featuring OCs (because I'm always complaining no one reads mine--lol), but I suppose I'm as guilty as anyone. I like Archie, and I like him as a friend for Luna. You've connected them well, even though their situations are quite different. Being misunderstood can be a powerful connection. Misfits finding other misfits is an idea that connects with readers for a reason, and you used that element well here.I'm impressed with how gently you came at this relationship. It's not easy to climax a relationship with holding hands, but you built it up nicely and the simplicity of the gesture was both meaningful and suitable to the pair of them. We often think of Luna as bold and kind of "out there" with her honesty and always saying a bit too much. So at first, when you said Archie was the first she'd told about her mum, I sort of wondered at it. But I think you're quite right in having her not share it with her house. She's the kind of person who chooses who she's going to trust, and we see this in that she tells it all to Harry only to explain the way she can see the thestrals, to make him realize he's not the only one. So well done there, I think you got right to the heart of her. My only question would be regarding this: " She didn't regret anything. Those months with Archie had helped her when she thought everything else had been lost." With this bit at the beginning, I expected their relationship to end suddenly or something. You say it only lasted for months, and I just wondered why it didn't endure. ?? If you ever feel like expanding this, it might be a good addition. Really enjoyed reading. Nice look into Luna's young mind. ~Lori
Okay, so literally, by the end of this, I had my elbow at the keyboard, chin in hand, mouth open, with my eyes about three inches from the screen. This story is absolutely fantastic, Carole. Wow. It might be my favorite of all your stories, actually, which is saying something. Even Lavender, I'm conflicted to say. Haha!Though a romance, this is also a post-Hogwarts story. I'm wondering now where you put it in terms of category. The journey into George's psyche as he deals with the loss of Fred is brilliantly done. I did cry in the section where he saw Fred. I too have always imagined that he knew the moment it happened, and that description here was heartbreaking, including the journey with Angelina to find him. The romance too was lovely. I've always thought it strange when fans don't like the idea of George with Angelina because she was with Fred. It couldn't have been long that they were together or I think it would have been mentioned. Do you suppose she would have said yes to whichever of them asked her to the ball? I think so, but that she grew into a deeper friendship with George over the years. You wrote this so, so well. My reviews are always rubbish, but please know how fabulous this is. It's going right into my favorites, and I'm stinking ecstatic that I get to be the recipient of it! Right up my canon alley! Oh, and does she get her sight back or not? ;) I must know these things. Thanks again, friend.
This was lovely Carole. I particularly enjoyed the way it rhymed but was formatted untraditionally in that regard. Sweet Colin... sniff. Well done.
Author's Response: Thanks Lori. Mmm, I liked making the rhymes internal so it didn't disrupt the flow. Colin's one of those characters that I always sigh over when he dies. He was sweet. ~Carole~
To fluff or not to fluff, that is the question. ;) I think you once told me in a review that fluflf could have substance, and this really does. I'm sure all of us Romione writers have our own ideas of how these things might have gone down, but we have a bit in common here. I, too, imagine they had to try for a while before getting pregnant, and I think the emotional response you gave to both Ron and Hermione show that well. This was a nice read, Neil. I will have to look up your first piece in this series in the next few days.Oh, I liked that George commented on Ron talking like Hermione. As soon as I read his line, I was thinking how it didn't sound like him at all... nice idea to include that bit.
Congratulations on a well-deserved QSQ award. This fic was truly staggering. The language with which you wrote Minerva's story was absolutely perfect for the time, for her, for the relationship. I loved everything about it.A fic spanning so many years in a person's life could be very boring or tedious, but you included all the right moments, all the right pitches, and it was compelling throughout. I'm glad you included the relationships with her parents, particularly her father. It's important, it shapes who she is, and yet you didn't keep hammering us with her "father issues" either. It was all so well-balanced. The characterization is just perfect, especially regarding her love for her students and for teaching, and how diffilcult it was for her to balance that with her personal life. That really rang true to who she was in the books--that devotion. Lovely, lovely work. One of the best fanfics I've ever read about a character's life and loves. Congrats again! ~Lori
Oh, how I love some Remus/Tonks, and this is very sweet. I like the comparison to the roller-coaster and that rise and fall that is love in anyone's life really, but yes, particularly for these two. Nice analogy, and the memory of Tonks and her father is a nice addition.One thing I think might make the story a big stronger is simply to flesh it out a bit more, add some description into the diaglogue. I love the scene by the lake -- nicely done setting this after Bill's injury -- but the lines come very quickly and it's such serious subject matter. Remus is such a brooder and thinker, I think some pauses there for description might make the transition to his proposal feel less sudden. But that's only an idea. :) The fic is lovely, and my favorite part is easy to choose. This line: "It's not about what I have to lose. It's about what you have to lose." I think that is right on the money, in terms of characterizing where Remus is and how he thinks about his relationship with her. He wants it because he loves her, but he feels he would be stealing her life. I love that line! Well done! I enjoyed reading!
This is minnabird of Hufflepuff writing for Round Two of the 2012 Character Triathlon.
It earned an honorable mention in that round and won joint first for Best Humour Story in the 2013 Quicksilver Quill Awards.
Oh, Minna, this is so much fun! Absolutely loved it, and laughed out loud when the boatman made fun of their accents... especially "gov'nah"! Hilarious! Loved the voice you created for Scabior, how self-aware he was, and that he blamed Harry for everything.A deserving win! Congratulations! ~Lori
What a lovely depiction of my all time favorite friendship. Love the use of the numbers... so creative. Congratulations on the win! ~ Lori
Ooh, what a little gem this fic is! You have a great take on Narcissa here. She's very stoic, which is how I always see her, and so methodically watching everything in her world that matters "freeze" while she waits... such a powerful image. I like the use of the color green (and the title, drought or not) to represent growth and health and money and honor and Slytherin... you've wound so much into it, and yet you stopped short of overdoing it. Well done.She's such a complicated character, especially in HBP and DH, where we begin to see that maybe her family does trump her Slytherin values and her dedication to the Dark Lord. You've communicated that well, and the idea of her walkign around in those old party robes is such a tragic image, but seems like something she might do. Your language is the real strength. "Honor is just a word." "All of it, dying." Really powerful writing, and I enjoyed reading very much. ~Lori
Aw, I love Neville so much. You've captured the sweetness of him here, and the tragedy of his current relationship with his parents. I love the meaning he assigns to the sweet wrappers--I've always seen him the same way, treasuring those as the only tangible thing he has from either of them.I noticed quite a few spag errors, and I do think the piece would be greatly improved by including the traditional structure with proper paragraphs. That said, it was a nice look at who Neville is. I love that, in his own way, he stands up to his Gran by appreciating his Mum's hands and keeping the wrappers in spite of her instruction to toss them away. I think its consistent with his character in canon--he usually follows authority, but when he knows something is the wrong thing to do, he won't do it. Well done with that. I paused at the idea of Neville being able to legitimately remember anything at all from his life with his parents. He would only have been about a year old when he lost them (I think), and I've never heard of a child remembering anything from their first year of life. The memory is good though, and I think if you wanted to make a change, you could just mention that it felt like a real memory because he'd heard it so many times from his Gran, and seen it in pictures. Well done with this. Your Neville is true to canon and I just want to squeeze him. I enjoyed reading. ~Lori
So I decided to go get some points for Hufflepuff in the Review Drive, and what joy do I find but a story from you with hardly any reviews? Readers should be ashamed of themselves. And Arlienne??? I adore her!Once I saw this, I did remember you writing something about her but I must have been too swamped to read at the time. She is one of my favorite OCs of all I've read in the Potterverse, as I loved her and Sirius' tragic story in Raindrops. She is well-done here, too, and I like the inclusion of Regulus playing both sides of the fence on this one. He is such an intriguing character and I was surprised that he was the one to warn her. It worked very well, though. Sirius is so often a player in everything I read, and of course, there is evidence to support such a thing. But the real strength of this story for me is that she is the one who got to him. He fell in love, even if their time was short, and it adds so much to his character, to give him that story. No surprises here really, since I know a lot of their story from Raindrops, but I really enjoyed this, Gina. Both of their scenes together were beautiful and beautifully-written, and the whole thing is just so, so sad. In a good way. I have no crit (drat, hopefully Jess will still give me points) except that I noticed a couple of typos, but that didn't stop me loving this story one little bit. Well done.
Oh dear, this was so much fun! I love trio missing moments, and this did not disappoint. You've captured their voices well, and I was smiling throughout. Well done.Favorite part: Hermione asking if Harry was trained to do that. LOL!
Jess, this is so good. I loved your characterization of both Adrian and Miles, and the complexity of their friendship (which became that much more complex as the story moved on). You did such a good job with Adrian--he wasn't perfect, but he was a hero of sorts, certainly. I'm glad Samuel was punished. Miles's story was such a tragic one, and I loved that Adrian insisted on justice. Nice twist at the end, with them being brothers. I paused a bit that Adrian seemed so merciful to his own father at the end, but I see it as Adrian maybe seeing his father as a human finally. Though his actions toward his son were certainly inexcusable.This kind of subject matter is not easy to write with sensitivity and realism, but you managed it well. With you, I would expect nothing less. Well done, and congratulations on the nomination! ~ Lori
I've known this story since I wrote Hollow Soldiers, but it took a lot to actually write it. I wanted to give it my best (which is why I actually went through five drafts of this story before even considering publishing it), but also make sure that I got the *feel* of it right. I do believe I did that, and if asked by anyone which story of mine is the best, this would be it. I tried the hardest, it meant the most, and while I'm saddened that it wasn't up to par enough to do better in D/A, it is nice that the sequel to it won a QSQ.
In this story, I must confess that Adrian is a bit of a self-insertion in terms of how he deals with things that suck. Basically, he ignored the problems Miles had until they were so much in his face that he no longer could, but it niggled him that he was ignoring it. Inwardly, I believe that Adrian wanted his own problems to be the focus of his life (aren't all teenagers selfish in that regard, at least to a point?), but Adrian just isn't built to be that selfish and his apathy does eat at him. And he does end up doing the right thing because he liberated himself from his own personal hell (his father's abuse) and understood the power of doing so. Even posthumously, he fought for Miles because no one else ever did - both because he needed to for himself and because he lost his brother almost before he ever knew he had one.
In terms of Adrian's dad, it does seem odd that he would want to start fresh, but as I mentioned before, Adrian removed any power his dad had over him or his mother. The man lays one hand on either him or his mum and Adrian will turn his nose from an outtie to an innie. And I think Adrian finally understands that it was never his fault or his mother's fault that they were abused, but while he lay blame where it was due, he saw fit to help his father be a better man than just pretend he doesn't exist. Pretending Miles's problems didn't exist ended up with his brother being a Death Eater and, in the end, dead. He wanted to do better this time. It wasn't his responsibility, but at this point, he just didn't want to lose anyone else. Plus, despite his numerous and inexcusable sins, Adrian's father was not nearly the monster Samuel was, and forgiveness didn't seem like such a far-off thing when the two things were put side-by-side.
Anyway, thanks for reading, and if you ever want to know more about the characters, let me know. I have so much headcanon for all of them that it's ridiculous.
Aida, I think this is such a compelling little fic. You've got into Peter's head very convincingly, and I love all the comparison between who he is as a human and who he is as a rat. The idea of the colors being different. I had a strong reaction to his desire to see some Gryffindor red, in that I wanted to pummel him for thinking he should get that priviledge. And yet, you made me feel for him in the first section, that he wasn't ready to die, and he wasn't like the others. Which he wasn't.Unlike the previous reviewer, I see no issue with Peter being able to get around Hogwarts as a rat. First, rats get around, and people are in and out of Gryffindor constantly, so he would have been able to use the portrait hole at those times. Second, and more importantly, the books tell us he got around the castle. End of story. ;) The bit with the Bloody Baron takes this fic up a notch, in my opinion. We see so much there, that he was tested by the others intentionally, that he was brave enough to do and cared enough to prove it. The Peter you've written here does have something to prove, and I found that very interesting, character-wise. Also, the Baron's response... wow. Perfect, perfect to include this bit, and it adds layers to everything you're writing here. The idea that James and Sirius brought the scene about and heard the answer, and Peter... just so very good. "After a few minutes of struggling and failing accept what he has done, he transforms back into a rat." I think this sentence is missing a word or two. I know its a niggly little thing, but here at the end of the fic, when you've introduced his guilt and are about to land a powerful ending line, I think it might warrant an edit. I stumbed there and had to reread a few times to understand what Peter was truly feeling. But again, that's so nitpicky of me, I realize. The end is so, so good. The idea that life as a rat is simpler makes perfect sense and yet, it leaves me unsettled (as it should) knowing Peter is able to escape the guilt and punishment he so well deserves to feel. But I imagine that is exactly how it would have been for him. Beautifully written, Aida. ~ Lori
Oh, how I love them all, especially when you are writing them. You can have James if I can have Remus. :)On the edge of my seat here....
I knew it would be a dreadful cliffhanger, you tease. ;) Really enjoying this--your use of magic is very good as always, and the J/L tension is just LOVE. Bring more soon....
Author's Response: Thank you Lori!! I'm so glad you enjoy my J/L stories. I always worry I am the only one who does, lol. And of course there is a cliffhanger. I love cliffhangers!! LOL Thanks again - more soon! ~Gina :)
Ooh, a diagram--I was wondering how in the world you keep such excellent track of all your battles. You are just so good at it. Nice action, with lots of emotion as well. I especially liked the inclusion of Dorcas's reaction and Orsino trying to save his staff. Well done, as always.
Ooh, look what I found on the most recents? With QSQ responsibilities taking up all my reading time and energy, I'm so behind on what my favorite authors have been doing. So this is me getting caught up.This is a great read so far! The awkwardness between them in the first chapter is just painful, and I'm glad its resolving a bit here at the end of the second chapter. Still, why did she say nooooo?? Clearly, she isn't sure that was the right call. Am I right? Well? ;) I adore your James, you know that, and this is no exception. I clicked on this knowing it was J/L, and was even more thrilled to see it was from his POV, because you are the master. Can't wait to see where this is going! Well done! ~Lori
Did I not review after chapter eight? Strange. I really loved the charmed ring--nice touch, and perfectly Sirius. This was a fitting end. I enjoyed the bit with the portkey and the fact that the other three didn't get to see the proposal. Get your own lives, people! Haha!Well done, as always, Gina. I've enjoyed reading! ~Lori
A companion piece to The Fire I Yearn For . It's not strictly necessary to read that first, though it may help you understand the events that unfold.
I enjoy stories like this, in which the seventh year is experienced through the eyes of a character other than Harry. Your Michael is interesting, and I liked being in his head, particularly on the platform and as he entered the train.You've really got me interested in Mandy. She's nearly an unknown character and yet she obviously trusts Michael. I wondered if they were a couple, or if they were just especially good friends, that she was comfortable grabbing his hand and crying into his chest. I'm interested in what she had to go through over the summer, and look forward to learning more about her in upcoming chapters. I thought your characterization of Ginny was interesting. I agree that she would have considered that first day back a very difficult one. But she does bounce back from those days, I think, as she was a leader in the D.A. that year. I look forward to seeing where you take her in upcoming chapters. I was going to niggle you about the "golden trio" bit, but I see Carole has already mentioned it. I certainly don't want to pile on, but the phrase has become such a joke in fanon that it really did startle me to see it coming out of Anthony's mouth. But it's your story, of course. I'm glad to see you plan to continue this, and look forward to seeing what these characters get up to next. Happy writing! ~Lori

How can women protect themselves? By getting regular physical exams that include screening for heart disease
seeking a second doctor's opinion if symptoms persist.
Women tend to suffer heart attacks five to ten years later than men because their estrogen levels decrease over time and, as women become menopausal, they lose some protection against heart disease.

Sounds pretty impressive, at least until you compare it to standard 9mm JHP loads going 800 MPH, or the over-1000 MPH light-bullet magnum revolver loads.
i was thinking last night about how some just think you have to have a 1000 fps bullet to be effective.
then they discount the 45acp because it is moving so slow
well, think of this
a 230 grain FMJ round ball is going at 830 fps - THATS 566 MILES PER HOUR!!
plenty fast enough i would think
Sounds pretty impressive, at least until you compare it to standard 9mm JHP loads going 800 MPH, or the over-1000 MPH light-bullet magnum revolver loads.
900 fps = 613 mph and
1000 fps = 682 mph
The important thing is............IMO...............ft. lbs. of energy delivered (velocity, mass, etc.) which make a .45 ACP also a good choice.
That 830 fps is at the muzzle, and is the fastest that bullet will travel. Velocity falls off pretty fast, so down range that speed has fallen off. Granted a 230 gr bullet at 830 fps is pretty potent, so velocities of 1000 fps at the muzzle are required to get 830 fps (or so) at the target. And the faster the bullet covers the distance, the flatter it shoots.
Bob Wright
Good discussion,but I still wouldn't want to take one at 50yds.I believe that would ruin an otherwise good day.I don't want to go near the cartige wars,but the wimpy 9s with more "energy" have seem to not hurt as bad as a 45 to perps.Yes,it's extenuating circumstances,but if a big 8 or 10pt buck is 25 or so yards away,do you want to zing an '06 bullet through him that feels like a mosquito camakazied him or dump him with an old tech 30-30 and watch where he drops?Velocity,energy and the bullet work together for a specific reason,you have to pick the flavor that suites the task at hand.Change just one of those and it's a whole new ballgame.
True but not at distances under 25 feet
Listen to Bob on this,he has a real good handle on this.That old 45Colt he shoots,if you have the gun to handle it you can surpass a 44mag's power with that old relic.Then there's the wildcats built off it.Linebaugh and Bowen will redo yours to a 5 shot that you can't handle unless you really like recoil,as in the front sight is making a beeline toward your forehead.
Unless I am mistaken, many of all you'all been here before.
Like Sir Isaac himself opined way back when and where, his Laws still apply.
K.E. (Kinetic Energy) = 1/2 Mass times Velocity Squared = 1/2 M x Vsquared.
Momentum = Mass times Velocity = M x V.
For firearms, I believe we can ignore Einstein's "corrections".
Since we really are not approaching the "speed of light" with bullet velocities.
So, pick your very own favorite version.
1. I am TOTALLY convinced BIG and SLOW is best.
2. I am TOTALLY convinced SMALL and FAST is best.
Let the games continue.
Personally, I don't even want to be in front of my air rifle.
Yes, that is a very small .177 caliber pellet. But, it's going 1,000 feet/sec.
260 grain bullet at 1,800 fps is a bit more energy than most .44 Mags.
So far, my Ruger Alaskan "snubby" hasn't come close to producing scars on my forehead.
The only complaint I have is full power factory loads are about $2 a pop. That cuts down on "my plinking".
The worst I shot was a wilcat on that basis.A friend had another buddy shooter that worked for Colt and built racing heads also,do a 5 shot conversion on his Blackhawk.He cut 8" off the end of his Ruger #3 octogon (yeah,puke) and threaded it on.The cartridge was cut down from the Ruger's 45-70,loaded with a 320gr I believe,and the bullet was heavily crimped because it was at the end of the chamber.First round drove a bowling pin into the berm that a 44mag couldn't reach,2 or 3 more rounds was it for me.A 44mag is a puss compared to this if you didn't lock down you were wearing this front sight because the gun was over your head in recoil.The article Ross wrote had a pic of him with the 475 in full recoil,it looked like someone stuck an antenna in the top of his head and he was holding it there.When the muzzle breaks the 180 from your forehead,that's gusto.

Bea Oxenberg's Hey Byrn returns just two weeks after a well-beaten fourth-place finish in the $1-million Florida Derby (gr. I). He's the choice in the $150,000 Holy Bull Stakes (gr. III) April 12 at Gulfstream Park.
The Holy Bull, lengthened this year from a one-turn mile to 1 3/16 miles and dropped to near the end of the Gulfstream schedule, drew a field of seven up-and-coming 3-year-olds. The race was previously at the top of the Triple Crown schedule as a lead-in to the Fountain of Youth Stakes (gr. II). This year, officials decided to switch it to the final graded stakes of the South Florida track's season as a late addition for sophomores looking for graded earnings to possibly break into the field for the Kentucky Derby presented by Yum! Brands (gr. I) at Churchill Downs May 3.
With the possible exception of Hey Byrn, that does not appear to have happened. The rest of the field lacks anything approaching Derby credentials. Heavy rain, including more than three inches recorded April 6, hurt training schedules and limited the size of the field.
Trained by Edward Plesa Jr., Hey Byrn won back-to-back allowance races during the Gulfstream meet by a combined margin of 20 1/2 lengths, making the Florida-bred son of Put It Back a "buzz horse" in the nine-furlong Florida Derby. However the bay colt was bumped hard at the break and never managed to be a factor in the race, dropping back in the stretch after rallying mildly on the final turn at odds of 10-1. He came home 15 lengths behind the romping Big Brown.
"His energy level coming out of the Florida Derby is 100%, we're here, and it's going to be a short field," Plesa told Daily Racing Form prior to entries April 9.
Hey Byrn has $50,000 in graded money from his Florida Derby effort. Plesa said that qualifying for the Derby field is not his primary consideration, although if Hey Byrn were to win the Holy Bull and amass enough graded earnings to get into the field, they would likely go.
Bred by the late Arthur I. Appleton, Hey Byrn has won three of seven starts with two seconds and has banked $176,000. Hey Byrn finished second to Wise Answer in the Florida Stallion Stakes' Affirmed division in his stakes debut at 2. Chuck Lopez will get the mount, replacing Jose Lezcano, and they will break from post two.
Web Gem, trained by Nick Zito, appears to have the best chance to defeat Hey Byrn. A colt by Fusaichi Pegasus , Web Gem is making his stakes debut following consecutive in-the-money performances against allowance company at Gulfstream. Coming off a third-place finish going a mile March 20, Web Gem has one victory in eight starts. That win came over maidens as a 2-year-old on a sloppy Aqueduct strip last fall.
Bipolar Express finished third in both the Michigan Sire Stakes and Michigan Futurity as a 2-year-old and seeks his first win of 2008.
Dream Maestro and Famous Patriot are last-out maiden winners. Famous Patriot, a Florida-bred trained by Timothy Hills, broke his maiden by 2 1/4 lengths in his first two-turn attempt at 1 1/8 miles March 6. Dream Maestro's victory also came at nine furlongs March 23 over a sloppy track for trainer William Kaplan.
The three-race maiden Chief Bear has been favored in his past two starts, but lost all chance when he hit the gate last time out, finishing fifth, 11 1/4 lengths behind Dream Maestro.

Will you wear a bikini after your TT?

- Last updated: 6 years ago
I've been thinking about it. I typically wear a one piece with a tummy slimmer/panel thing that looks like it's a tankini and a bottom; while I love my bathing suit the main thing holding me back from a two piece was my gross stomach (I have pretty big boobs too though and they may not be appropriate for beach viewing :) ). But now... I just wonder how many of us will be breaking out a bikini for this summer?

CANADA STOCKS-TSX rises as energy shares gain with oil prices
TORONTO Feb 27 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index rose on Friday as higher oil prices helped support shares of energy producers and banks climbed after recently reporting quarterly results.
The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index was up 39.93 points, or 0.26 percent, at 15,281.09 shortly after the open. (Reporting by John Tilak)

Carole's Cheesecake Café
Boasting not just the world's best cheesecake, but the whole universe's is Carole's Cheesecake Café, located right in the heart of Yorkville.
The café is New York-styled, lined with white vinyl booths, a blackwood bar, and a chalkboard menu. Carole's serves everything from all-day breakfast to red and white wines but of course, we're here for the main attraction.
We flip right to the 'Best in the Universe Cheesecakes' page and find drool-worthy flavour after drool-worthy flavour: Caramel Brownie, Triple Chocolate, Rocky Road, Dulce de Leche, Turtle, Taffy Apple, Very Berry, Strawberry Swirl, Raspberry Swirl, Cappuccino, Marble, Lemon, Pistachio, and the classic New York Naked Cheesecake.
Out of the corner of our eye, we also notice a 'Sugar Free and Low Carb Cheesecake' section but come on, treat yoself.
After an intense process of elimination, we order the Taffy Apple ($6.99) and some Chamomile Tea ($3.95) to wash it down.
Left to right: Taffy Apple Cheesecake Slice ($6.99), Chamomile Tea ($3.99)
The chamomile tea was very – okay, let's be real, we just care about the cheesecake.
Topped with a generous layer of taffy-smothered apple slices atop one of the richest cheesecakes in the (apparently) universe, your fork just seems to develop a life of its own and takes piece after piece. When we finally snap out of our daze and realize the plate is empty, we had to restrain ourselves from ordering a whole cake.
The real question is: is this really the universe's best cheesecake? To be honest, we're not entirely convinced--we're going to have to eat a whole lot more cheesecake to come to a verified conclusion but we don't mind the challenge.

This is perhaps another of my near intolerably stupid questions which are probably obvious to others: So with deworming agents such as this: http://angelsplus.com/MedsParasite.htm. will it kill the worm, or does it just remove it from the fishes' system? Or both of those?
Send Steve an email and I'm sure he'll answer.
Worming here I use Flubendazole because it's a water column treatment doing the whole tank. Also Levamisole HCl powder - serious treatment for Camallanus Nematode internal parasite infestation.
I also use Flubendazole. It treats all worms, including nematodes. You can order it here:
The second supplied link is $7 less on 100g but I'm a nut and staying with the hobbyist thats selling it. (no idea on shipping fees on the later either)
good luck OP, needing the meds I hope your issues clear up.
You really should know what you're treating for. If it is a nematode as mentioned above there is a good chance your fish is going to die from the treatment anyway. Nematodes as IPs are found in between the muscle tissues and under the skin. Once treated they tend to die, but can't be passed out of the fishes system like IPs that attack the intestines. The body of the worm will remain under the skin and rot causing an infection that will kill the fish.
Just be careful when treating.. it is always best to target treat as opposed to a broad spectrum treatment.
Good to know, prior to this thread and your post I was unaware of anywhere else in the U.S. I could get it at 10% without Rx.
I was just wondering idly; there's no problem with my fish currently, but for safety measures when quarantining, I'd like to get something to make sure I don't introduce anything into my tanks. The quality of the fish I can get is a mystery.
Summing up: Fenbendazole is added to the food, good for intestinal parasites, such as castodes.
Flubendazole is for nematodes, and is broad-spectrum (?), it's a water column treatment.
What do you treat trematodes with?
A lot of discus folks use Flubendazole because it's easy to use and can nuke any bad worms. Plus, if the fish is already sick or stressed, chances are he isn't eating, which makes Fenbendazole worthless. The next batch of wild discus I buy will be treated with flubendazole before going into the main tank. They recommend using food medicated with Fenbendazole 2-3x a year as a preventative.
I can no longer find reference on the inkmkr.com website to Flubendazole being recommended for Callamanus, and they now recommend a very large dose of Levamisole, 5g/100G. There are older versions of their instructions floating around on other websites.
I do know from experience that Angels Plus Deworming Food (Fenbendazole) will not cure Callamanus. Might still be effective against other parasites.
Callamanus are freakin' evil. Still trying to eliminate them 100%. I plan on treating all new fish for them regardless of symptoms.
You'd be wrong. But you'd think....
Fenbendazole isn't water soluble (or at least easily soluble)... That's why it's better as a food additive.
Levamisol works great but a bit hard to find since they've been taken off the market. What you can find is stock. I don't think levamisol kills the nematode immediately but rather paralyzes the worms. It would detach from the fish and starve.
When treating for worms (callamanus), it's best to treat twice. Once initially and another a week later to catch all stages of the worm cycle.

My name's Keith Murphy. Danny Roark and I hunt down the dark things that prey on humans like you. Or we did, until what seemed like a routine assassination job went bad. Really bad. Now the end of the world is coming at us like a possessed freight train.Running doesn't bother me. It's a fine survival trait. What bothers me is the 9mm bullet I swallowed—with the soul of my last victim trapped inside it. That botched job I mentioned. He was leader of the Raven Cult: bloodthirsty fools who won't let a little thing like death cramp their style. When Roark goes down, I'm left to figure out what the cult's survivors are planning. It's a puzzle I've got to figure out before the Gloom gets too strong and the real monsters come through—ones my ragtag, mostly demonic, army can't handle.

CrusadeFlotsam Trilogy #3This is the final book in the seriesApocalypse Ink Productions | Amazon DriveThruFiction | Barnes & Noble
My name's Keith Murphy. For nearly two decades, my partner, Danny Roark, and I hunted down the dark things that prey on normal humans. But, on what we thought was a routine job, something went wrong. Now the end of the world is coming at us like a freight train on steroids.When Danny goes down, it's me who has to figure out what those fools left over from the Raven cult have planned. It's a puzzle I've got to figure out before those doors open wider and real monsters—ones that my rag-tag, mostly demon, army can't handle—come through.Roark was the one who knew about all this magic and end or the world stuff, not me. I guess I'll figured it out as I go.

Time is running out for Darien.It has been nearly a year since the battle in Texas, where Darien learned of the curse that accompanies his powers as Sheynan. He is afraid to leave the safe haven of Susan's family cabin in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest, despite Richard's growing impatience.When the Arm of Gaia and the Shadows catch up to them, Darien is unprepared for the consequences, and only the intervention of a secretive government agency saves their lives. Who and what is this agency? How do they know so much about Shifters? Is their offer of help really what it appears to be? Or, is it something more nefarious?As new players and new dangers enter the scene, Darien must confront his past, and convince the Arm and the Shadows to work together against a new enemy—before his mind is lost to the Sheynan's curse.

Sometimes, no matter what you do, some things get mixed up. You can double check that all the t's are crossed and the i's dotted but some things just slip up. Publishing is no different. Chimera Incarnate was released earlier this month in digital and physical copies. Usually the physical copies are available on the same day as the digital release but we've hit a little snafu.
The copies that are available on Amazon and B&N through Lightning Source are delayed because of a few hiccups. We are sure they will be ironed out soon.
In the mean time, if you would like a copy to complete your Karen Wilson Chronicles collection, please order it from the Apocalypse Ink Productions website or catch Jennifer at Norwescon later this week.

References to this work on external resources.
Wikipedia in English
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0981744362, Paperback)Grief, by its very nature, is overwhelming. And, many people accept that there are established stages of grief: anger, denial, bargaining, and acceptance. Sometimes the grief stricken will attempt to plod through these stages with a sense of determination, hoping for a feeling of control during a time that feels totally out of control. Unfortunately, the stages are not linear, nor are they predictable. Grief cannot be rushed. Grief takes its own leisurely and excruciating time. It cannot be gotten around; it must be gotten through.In this book, award-winning author Spike Gillespie and author Katherine Tanney present a series of essays written by those who have been devastated by grief and have found a way through to the other side. From the loss of a loved one to death, to divorce, job loss, and even unexpected sources of grief, Gillespie and other essayists describe their initial feelings of helplessness, their attempts to push through the stages of grief, and the things that gave them comfort and solace along the way.

Last time I wrote about being paralyzed by choice. With so much to do, how does one decide where to go next? Well, I've decided I am going to take the do nothing approach. I don't mean I'm going to sit on my hands and wish for something. I do mean I'm not going to get rid of anything, nor am I going to pick one and go for it. Instead, I'm going to take a simpler approach.
Micro-Tasking to Success
Instead, I'm going to do small things in areas I think are fun and interesting. The way I'm going to tackle this is commit to doing a few little things for one week. This can be doing videos, writing articles, writing books, or whatever I decide that is in line with my ideas. The goal for doing this is to not commit myself to potentially years of work and find out down the road I don't like it. This is "getting my feet wet."
This week, I'm going to focus on doing videos on my YouTube channel for drjerm. Drjerm is one of my niche websites. It's purpose is to help people who are struggling in life and after some direction. The site is a few years old now and I've created about 11 videos on its YouTube channel. I have 66 subscribers, so I already have something to work with. Each morning, I will pick a topic and discuss it in the camera. After this week, I'll find out if I'm interested in continuing to do videos or even write articles for it. I may even find that I really like doing it and wonder why I ever stopped.
Start Small
Committing to Little Things to Get to Big Things is an approach I haven't done before. In the past, I'd have this grand idea of how I'd conquer the world and meet celebrities. The link to that article is one I wrote in March, 2010. In it, I sound pretty sure of myself how I'm going to create all these marvelous things, including getting a publisher and meeting Tony Horton (fitness trainer). I think it's all well and good to get excited. However, I quickly lost steam with my big dreams and came crashing down to earth pretty hard.
It's hard to focus on huge goals. Not that they're not good. I know I want to achieve a lot. But I am making a conscious choice now to focus on the small steps to get there. This weeks it will be making videos for my niche website, DrJerm.com. Next week, who knows? The advantage of starting small and doing it for only a week or two, I'll know if I want to continue doing it. If I don't like it, I can just quit and move on to something else.
Staying Consistent
I'm going to keep doing my mobile games with my twin brother and writing my book and on this website when I'm inspired. Next week, I'll be happy to report my progress in doing small things as opposed to trying to do to much at once. My hope is that we'll accomplish together the simple things. Whatever we decide, let's take one small thing and do it every day for a week (two if you're feeling good about it).
Committing to little things to get to big things is a micro-tasking approach. The goal is to not feel overwhelmed by huge goals and aspirations. In addition to that, by keeping it simple and small, there's more of a chance of completing it. This will give us a good idea if we want to continue doing what we decided or not. Remember, small and simple tasks for a short period of time :)

The CA-3 year is a time of progressive responsibility, independence, and professional maturity. It is the launching pad to a professional future as a consultant anesthesiologist of the highest caliber. The CA-3 year is also a time for assuming the role of teacher, educating and tutoring students and young residents in the art of doctoring and the art of anesthesiology.
Residents are usually assigned the most complex or challenging cases when in the main operating room. They also complete their ACGME requirements for subspecialty training during this time. Rotations at Advocate Christ Hospital allow residents to experience firsthand the dynamic of private practice, and the obligations of independent practice.
Residents are encouraged to design programs suited to their unique needs, such as elective months in cardiology observing clinical echocardiography and cardiac catheterization. Some residents complete away rotations or go on medical missions during the CA-2 or CA-3 year. Since 2009, we have sent residents to away rotations in Mongolia, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Australia, India, and the Philippines. And residents interested in research can spend significant time during the year participating in clinical or basic science investigations.
We also encourage--and pay for--all CA-3 residents to attend a national conference, such as that of the American Society of Anesthesiologists.

Faith healing doesn't work on amputees. It doesn't work on the paralyzed. And it doesn't work on… well… those parts.
(via Freethunk!)
Faith healing doesn't work on amputees. It doesn't work on the paralyzed. And it doesn't work on… well… those parts.
(via Freethunk!)
This is great!
Oh my this is too funny! A similar incident happened to me and ended up being the deciding factor for me leaving the church! Long story short, wife and I have fertility issues, actually the issue is with me. A friend wanted me to get prayer from a "faith healer" so I went along with it. At the end of the prayer, healer asks if I felt any "tingles down there?" wtf? I say NO and he feels led to pray for me again with more faith healers and then asks me about "tingles" again. Ran into a mutual friend of healer a couple weeks ago who told me healer was in jail! Wouldn't tell me why but my guess is he probably tried the "enlarge them" prayer!…oh lord
LOL I never thought of that. I wonder what Christina Aldana would say. She is so sweet. I love her so much. I think she would laugh, wait I dont know maybe she would get mad at me. But I think this article is funny.
Actually, I had a very enlightening discussion with a reiki practitioner. She explained to me that they differentiate between 'healing' someone and 'curing' them. Being 'healed' is spiritual, and doesn't equate to being physically cured.
She does a lot of 'healing' for terminal cancer patients. They still die, but apparently they're a lot happier about it.
Some people may find this spiritual healing very worthwhile. Personally, my first port of call will remain the GP.
faith healing doesnt work period. Good cartoon though
God is going to give me a bigger shlong – bet you'll be jealous then, Hemant.
it is hilarious how people will look at evidence of primitive religions and say "How funny, they worshipped the sun". Hey all you Goddies, at least sun worshippers have evidence their god actually exists! show me a photograph of your god.
I wonder if I could have a faith healer remove the misspelled tattoo from my ass?
Excellent. So true.
Jeff Swenson does great work.
Its not really faith healing I don't think, but similar. I went to a concert at a church when I was in high school. The band was called "Justified". It was a good show and everything, just a little creepy. Of course the pastor gave a little mini sermon before the concert, and then he went down to the audience to bless people or whatever they call it. He would walk up to them and "WITH THE POWER OF CHRIST" smack them on the forehead and they would fall into the arms of the people behind them and have a less-than-believable seizure. Then after a while they all started jiggling around and speaking in jibberish tongues. Me and my friends just kind of gave each other some semi-frightened looks and I remember thinking: Whats going to happen if he comes over here and hits me in the face like he does to them, and nothing happens?
LoL! Never thought of that one… I now wonder why we don't hear about that kind of "cosmetic healing" more often, I bet there are lots of people so deluded that would fall for this one too.
You realize that the advertisement that appears at the top of this page is for Scientology.org, right? Ironic or stupid? I don't know.
Good stuff, love the faith healer jokes. Keep them coming
That would be the best job ever. I would only accept females, though. Sorry guys.
That doesn't mean that you can't make money trying.
Xianity has been a successful fraud for 2,000 years.
Does it work on hairlips? Baldness? Alzheimer's?
Just imagine if all the energy and money wasted on religion were put to use to help people.
Apparently it doesn't work on stigmata, either.

Hello from Ken in San Diego!
Hi all,
I really appreciate you all being willing to share your knowledge and expertise. I am one of those guys who, previously, stayed away from home repair at every opportunity. I tried to build a table once....just once when I was a teen and have since steered well clear of home improvement.
But fate played a 'good news-bad news' trick on me and I have now inherited a 3 bedroom house, fully paid for, in a nice area of San Diego.
The problem is it was built in 1959 and other than a new roof and some paint it remains much as it was built. 2 prong outlets and everything.
So I have resolved to learn as much as I can from you folks and do my best to overcome my home repair inadequacies. I will be needing lots of advice as I take on this home remodel, from asbestos tile removal to electrical wiring and everything in between.
Thanks in advance for any help offered and for your patience while I ask lots of stupid questions that I probably should already know...but don't.
Welcome to the club
We bought a 1950's house & I have been working on it the past 6 years

Springs voters won't decide on marijuana this November
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Colorado Springs voters won't see a question about marijuana on this November's ballot. City Council voted to delay the discussion.
Supporters of recreational marijuana wanted a question on the November ballot, asking voters whether retail marijuana shops should be allowed in Colorado Springs. City council banned the sale of recreational marijuana last July.
Adding the measure to the November ballot would have cost the city between $450,000 and $750,000. According to an El Paso County Clerk and Recorder spokesperson, Colorado legislature says that if an entity puts something on the ballot, it must help pay for the election. The amount is proportionate to the number of voters in the entity.
At Tuesday's meeting, city council members said they weren't ready to put a question on November's ballot. The discussion was delayed with a 7-2 vote. Council members Keith King, Merv Bennett, Don Knight, Helen Collins, Jill Gaebler, Jan Martin and Val Snider voted to delay the vote. Council members Joel Miller and Andy Pico voted not to delay the vote.
Council members will discuss putting the marijuana question on the April ballot, during their August 11 meeting.

This Champion 3000 watt generator is a Chinese clone version of the Honda GX-190 engine. Apparently they blueprinted the Honda engines so all the kits and options available for the GX-190 would be the same for this Honda copy. Based on the horsepower rating for this Champion Honda knockoff engine, you have 2 options available:
· Type A Kit
This is a dedicated carburetor conversion kit. The carburetor is dedicated to alternative fuel by drilling the center passage a little larger for the insertion of a new fuel tube into the air stream. With this system you would now be able to run natural gas and even propane for portable operation (using a grill cylinder gives the equivalent of about 5 gallons of gasoline). This process does not allow use of gasoline as an option. However, a new carburetor could be purchased if later someone wanted to revert back to gasoline. The cost of this system is $157 without final hookup hoses. (HERE IS THE URL - http://www.1shoppingcart.com/SecureCart/SecureCart.aspx?mid=65259091-727A-440B-9216-4B7870D84E9F&pid=c4bdac90cff39c5f7a9eb3daaec3ff81
AND HERE IS THE LINK - Add to Cart)
· Type C Kit
This is an adapter kit and considered to be tri-fuel, meaning you would use natural gas and propane and still retain gasoline as an option. The process involves inserting a custom fit adapter in-between the air filter assembly and the face of the carburetor. So no drilling of the carburetor is needed. Other components are included to facilitate the additional 1-1/4" of space that the adapter requires. This kit is $187 which does not included final hookup hoses.
(HERE IS THE URL - http://www.1shoppingcart.com/SecureCart/SecureCart.aspx?mid=65259091-727A-440B-9216-4B7870D84E9F&pid=53ba40e4ee4db9e9f438c611e498fbf8
AND HERE IS THE LINK - Add to Cart )
· Type CIC
This is our Hybrid induction process that requires sending us your carburetor. The details of this method is explained in a reply to post http://uscarb.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=5212272 and clicking this hyperlink will take you to the detailed answer.
The hookup hoses and accessories and further details that explain even more about these kits, along with the links to order what you may need can be found here: http://uscarb.com/a-c_kits.htm .
Lastly, if you want a hose to connect your generator to your natural gas source, the following link will be of great benefit: http://uscarb.com/a-c_kit_acc.htm. This link will have information to help you determine the size required and length of hose you would need to run your generator properly and efficiently. Currently, all accessories ship at no additional charge with kit orders but this policy could change without notice on this response.
This forum question is in regards to propane and natural gas conversion kits for the Costco 3000 watt Champion 196cc generators rated at 3000 watts with 3500 watts surge. The terms Costco propane generator and Champion propane generator kit are also used with these Costco generators.

xmas cherry shrimp vase
Updated 2-25-2013 fts
Alternathera reineckii
Bacopa monnieri
Bacopa sp. colorata
Lobelia cardinalis dwarf
Staurogyne sp. 'porta velha'
cherry shrimp- coming soon!
from my wonderful husband! :smile:
For reference, that is my 50cmx20cmx22cm nano tank in the background. The bowl is about the same height and roughly 12" at it's widest. I'm guessing it could hold ~3g.
Now what to do with it... I'm considering either a wabi-kusa bowl or perhaps doing a shrimp bowl similar to davrx's.
Please help me decide. What do you think I should create in this wonderful vase?!!? :biggrin:
wabi kusa semi emmersed above water and shrimp :)
sand on the bottom and a few rocks.
fill bowl 1/2 to 3/4, place sand, rocks and wabi kusa with a stem mix. the stems will grow out of the water and it will be a jungle and clean the water
then add a few shrimp
they show this concept similar in some ada videos.
Planting wise, I like ADA's echinodorus mix wabi's and the look of Rotala rotundifolia when it flowers. I wish ADA sold their wabi-kusa in the US.
look what came for Christmas!
1 Attachment(s)
Why not a simple not exactly a wabi-kusa but a simple fen-shui based hardscape dominant scape with a buddha? Adding a pic of something I did in this line. Hope this helps.
Given the height of my vase, it seems to call for a tall stem plant as part of the layout, or maybe a cool piece of driftwood protruding through the top?
bacopa is a pretty rigid stem plant and is very green, grows out of water like nobodies business.. i dont know why someone said no to opae ula, as they don't seem to have been brought up(you said similar, not mirror image???), but cherry shrimp params mix with plants much better than brackish shrimps do. bourbon bowls are lovely!
I would personally look forward to a DW as you rightfully mentioned with H.tripartita coiming kindof round it with some terrestrial moss on the wood..that would look really nice..:) plus - if this is going to be a immersed setup (where plants will be actually trained to stay without humidity) you can also give lucky bamboo a try..;)
I brought up the opae ula as an original idea for the bowl that TPT member davrx did.
Now I realize there are many shrimp varieties that can be housed safely in bowls without filtration or heaters. After reading up on Walstad bowls, I may give one a try with RCS shrimp. :smile:
This should be interesting to see evolve! You going to make it to the next meeting? I know I'll have a ton of plants for sale my main plant tank is bursting with plants!
My vote is for pool filter sand on the bottom and about 5 stems of Bacopa monnieri in the center - just planted, no Wabi Kusa. Once those grow in really well, you can trim them down to various heights and replant.
Cherries as your livestock.
Could look pretty sweet!
But then, I really am loving the setups of wabi kusa that I've been seeing with crypts.
Seems like a walstad bowl may be easier to keep with shrimp though, while a crypts wabi may have a nicer lush look which might fit better in the living room, where I'm planning to house this little gem. :smile:
Oh that's nice!

Frequently Asked Questions
9. I have never had chickenpox. How careful must I be to avoid getting shingles from somebody?
If you never had chickenpox and you are exposed to someone with shingles, you could get chickenpox -- not shingles. However, the shingles virus is not transmitted by someone breathing or coughing on you. You have to come in contact with the shingles blister fluid itself. Once the blisters scab over, the contagious period is ended.
Ask your healthcare provider whether the chickenpox vaccine would be advisable to prevent you from getting chickenpox.
