I don't know if she is coming or going. Very interesting though.
I am trying to think of a comment that will not get me banning myself! :wink:
Guess it gives ''spinal fusion'' a whole new meaning. Nice PShop work tho.
Chris, couldn't agree more! So many things come to mind....
The only one that could go here is I'd hate to have to pay for all the custom clothing! :silly:
OK...My opinion is that those two lovely sisters are probably having an Extremely Tough time shopping for properly fitting Denim Blue Jeans & consequently must probably remain more scantily dressed in clothing that is somewhat stretchier in certain places.
From a strictly Personal Self~Defense perspective I think that it would be highly beneficial to have "somebody close" always "Watching Your Six."
Running should be fun - or would it be perambulating on all four arms - with the odd skip! :banana:
She/They Oh...both of them look like thay can probably perambulate enough to "get by" ~ Just my guess on that.
Yeah, it is. Let's not push much further.... :wink:Quote:

I guess I'm in.!
Hey Fellas,
I visited the site a few times and was just surfin' for TH350 info.
Found some interesting stuff & thought I'd sign up.
I'm working on two 69 Firebirds. A hard top and a convertible.
The hard top was a 350 2bbl plain-jane, now a 400 4bbl, TH350 3.90 posi and painted a beautiful 'electric-current' red with black interior and factory mags. (cluch-pedals and 4spd waiting on the shelf.)
The rag-top is a 400 4spd. 400 hood + hood-tach +deluxe interior.
The rag is under heavy rustoration. No-one but me would be crazy enough to bring this rust bucket back from the evil 'parts strippers' to be a beautiful machine one day.
I have replaced the entire back end of the car from the back seat to the tail lights from scrap and NOS panels. I still have yet to do the floors.
It won't ever be a total reproduction resto, just close. I build them for ME to have fun in.
Welcome to the site Pontiac Rumble. :welcome: Glad to hear you are having fun building your projects. How about some pics of those future rides in the reconstruction phase.
Lots of info and opinions here. To get the most out of the site check out the Knowledge Base and use the search function for quick answers to your questions. As well check out the Project Journals for info and inspiration. Glad to have you here and enjoy the site.

i would like to use my 500 for deer hunting this year, but don't want to drop the $$ into a slug barrel. Does somebody make a rifled choke tube?
And if so, do they work? I find foster style rifled slugs aren't as accurate as i would like and would like to shoot a sabot slug. Any info would be appreciated Thanks.

My heart is in his hand
By Susy Schultz
I have a visceral reaction to September. I feel the small hand in mine. Sometimes all it takes is walking past the elementary school.
The warmth. The smallness. The future.
One my greatest pleasures and pains as a parent is the walk on the first day of school.
Even if the morning was crazy, when you step onto the porch, the world pauses and breathes.
We would take hands, look each other in the eye and take the first of the eight steps down the front porch.
"I'm right here with you. Isn't this exciting?"
In the early years, our hands stayed together all the way to school-all 447 steps to the playground door where the younger children are let in.
Our hands fit. His hand felt warm. And occasionally, when the hold would break because a bug on the sidewalk was too tempting, our hands found their way back together naturally.
When we arrived at the school, wading through the sea of children, I loved how the grip tightened. I loved being asked to stay in line with our hands together.
Many years, I walked through the door with our hands parting only after the boy was settled in the class.
In the later years, our hands would start together down the eight front steps. But just as quickly, they would break. "Mom, I just want to get there right away. Everyone will be there."
"That's fine. I'm right here, behind you."
Sometimes the boy would run away. Sometimes the boy would jump on his scooter and ride away. One year, he flipped the wheels down on his sneakers and rolled away.
I always followed, all 447 steps.
I could see the backpack, freshly packed with a ruler, washable markers, colored pencils, a pencil case, six no. 2 pencils and a new eraser. There would be a square outline of the large box of Kleenex.
I was always thinking: Will he fit in well? Will he like the teacher? Will he be happy? Will he be organized? Will he be safe? Did they really mean Crayola markers? Will the generic do? Do I have to sell wrapping paper again this year?
And when I arrived at the school, the boy's hand was waiting for me. "Mom, come here. This is my line. Come meet my teacher."
The hands were not together as much.
Now, the hands waved at the door.
"'Bye, Mom. Can I have a play date after school?"
I lingered on the playground with other parents.
Each of us smiling. Outside, the picture of control. But inside, I was having my own parental moments filled with quiet internal tumult.
When they were younger, I would be talking about summer vacation outside, but inside my exhausted self was saying, "I can't believe we made it, he's in school now. Wait a minute. HE'S IN SCHOOL NOW."
When they were older, there was a sense you accept the inevitable.
Outside, you commiserated with other parents, "I can't believe we got him to school. It's so crazy. It's never easy for me that first day."
Inside, I thought, "He looked so old walking through the door. Wasn't he just a baby? It's never easy for me that first day."
But we do, as always, what we must as parents. We "model positive behavior" for our children. Remember that passage in the job description?
We smile as we walk them to school. We support them. We tell them what we really believe, that it looks to be a great year.
The older children's parents joke with the kindergartners' parents, who look a bit dazed. Some even misty-eyed.
Nobody is allowed a full-out sob.
And after kindergarten, it is not even as acceptable to be misty-eyed at the school door.
After all, we know the drill. We give birth, they grow. There will be joy, there will be pain. What did you expect?
So, we chat.
I would wait to cry during the walk home-all 447 steps. Because when I noticed my hand was empty, my heart flooded with hopes and fears for the boy.
When my hand was empty, my head filled with too many what-if's.
"Mom," he said in the doorway. "I don't need you to walk me to school anymore. I can do it myself. It looks bad. I'm not a baby.
"I love you. 'Bye."
"'Bye honey. I'm right here."
I followed-all 447 steps. Just to make sure.
As they learn to walk, we learn to walk beside them, behind them, and then, without them.
Nobody told me how hard that would be.
Really, there are many things as a parent I do, but few things I know.
I never know if I'm doing a good job. I don't know if I can keep them happy and healthy. I don't know if I can protect them from the potential dangers they face every day of their life.
But I do know it's 447 steps from the bottom of my eight front porch steps to the playground door behind the school.
And I know that even if I can't catch it, my boy's hand feels warm in mine.
And I also know I will be there, walking behind him no matter how many steps he is ahead.

Jessica is a 14-year-old high school student from Cerritos, CA. She enjoys going to concerts, listening to music, and playing basketball.
Trust is basically the building block of all good relationships. Earning trust is really complicated. If you have done something defiant, for instance, sneaking out, earning your parents' trust back may be even more difficult. During adolescence, teenagers are trickier to understand. It's at this stage of their lives where they are learning more about life and feel the pressure from everyone around them. Below are some techniques you should use to build trust with your parents.
1. Communicate. Communication is key. Become best friends with your parents. Discuss important topics with them. Tell them all about your day. They are always interested in knowing the most up to date news about you.
2. Be Respectful. Always show respect towards everyone, especially your parents. If you respect them, they should also show some respect back. A person that is respectful and courteous is more deserving of trust.
3. Keep up with school. Make sure you keep your grades up. School should be one of your top priorities. If you have A's or B's you can most likely go and enjoy a night out with friends, but if those grades drop down to C's and D's you'll probably have to stay in.
4. Don't argue. Just accept whatever your parents want you to do. Make certain you
don't fight back or make irritated or angry body language. Don't let them see that
you're mad. Go to a place where you can calm down and leave it be.
5. Be obedient. Don't break the rules. Just do as you're told. This way your parents can see that they can rely on you doing little things. You should also lend a hand around the house, whether it's putting the dishes away or helping with the groceries. Don't just sit there while they are bringing in the groceries and wait for them to ask you to help. Just do it involuntary.
6. Don't complain. When you complain you sound like a little kid. The more childlike you seem, the more your parents will think you're too young for too much independence.
7. Don't make bad decisions. No matter how big or small, bad decisions can build up. Always do the right thing. Don't do anything you'll regret. Whatever you do, don't give into peer pressure when you know what they're trying to get you do is bad.
8. Tell the truth. Always tell the truth. Lying is probably the worst thing you can do. Just be honest. Own up to things you've done. No matter how awful it can be keeping it a secret can make a relationship disintegrate. Lying will just make problems greater. If you're parents discover that you have lied and kept something secret that may just cause you to lose all the trust you have.

WASHINGTON – Hopes rose Thursday for a breakthrough in the political impasse crippling Washington following "constructive" talks between President Barack Obama and top Republicans on a short-term fix to stave off a debt default.
After days of deadlock, Republicans, led by House Speaker John Boehner, proposed a six-week extension of U.S. borrowing authority in return for an agreement by Obama to negotiate on a budget that would restart federal operations, which ground to a halt Oct. 1.
The White House said Obama would be open to a short-term debt ceiling hike to avoid the United States defaulting on its debts for the first time ever after the deadline next Thursday. But aides said he would prefer a longer-term extension and would not accept any measure that contained partisan conditions to hold him to "ransom."
The president also wants Republicans to pass a temporary budget to reopen the government, bringing hundreds of thousands of federal workers back to their desks, before he gets into detailed budget negotiations.
Obama sat down for 90 minutes at the White House with House Republican leaders, who quickly returned to Capitol Hill, as their second in command, Eric Cantor, offered an upbeat report on the talks to reporters. "It was a very useful meeting, we had a constructive conversation," Cantor said, adding that both sides would consult aides and continue discussions later on Thursday evening.
The White House was more measured, making clear that Obama was still seeking a deal that would both reopen the government and extend the debt ceiling.
"After a discussion about potential paths forward, no specific determination was made," a statement said. "The president looks forward to making continued progress with members on both sides of the aisle."
The maneuvering appeared to indicate that both sides were seeking an exit to the crisis. The talks now appear to be focusing on a process to raise the debt ceiling, start long term budget talks and then reopen the government.
If there is not extension to the debt ceiling by next Thursday, the Treasury would run out of money and could begin defaulting on U.S. obligations for the first time in history.
Before Obama met with the Republican leaders, he huddled with top Senate Democrats. Asked whether he would negotiate with Republicans to open the government, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid replied, "not going to happen," and indicated Obama shared his view.
Hopes for a possible deal sparked optimism on Wall Street. The Dow Jones industrial average shot up more than 300 points, or 2.2 percent, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq was also up 2 percent.
Earlier, Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew warned that a U.S. default would cause economic chaos, telling the Senate Finance Committee: "If Congress fails to meet its responsibility, it could be deeply damaging to the financial markets, the ongoing economic recovery, and the jobs and savings of millions of Americans."
Other countries were closely watching the unfolding crisis, fearful of reverberations in their economies. Gang Yi, deputy governor of China's central bank, warned that Washington should have the "wisdom" to overcome the gridlock as soon as possible. China is the largest foreign holder of U.S. government debt.
"The market doesn't like uncertainty and we watch that drama very closely," he said, speaking in a CNN-hosted panel discussion on the sidelines of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank annual meetings in Washington.
IMF chief Christine Lagarde said a six- to eight-week temporary debt limit extension would be welcome, but "much longer would be a lot better" for the world economy.
Bank of Japan Gov. Haruhiko Kuroda, meanwhile, said in New York that he did not expect a U.S. debt default.
Obama has said he is willing to talk to Republicans on a long term budget deal and other fiscal issues, but only when the government is reopened and the debt ceiling is lifted.
Republican lawmakers said reaction in the party caucus to Boehner's plan was mixed.
"What the speaker is trying to do is just to get this man to sit down and talk to us," said Rep. Lou Barletta, referring to Obama.
Representative Kevin Brady clarified that Boehner's offer was not a mere clean debt ceiling hike, saying, "We provide a six-week hard date extension of the debt ceiling on the condition that both parties name budget conferees, and that the president come to the table to negotiate re-opening the government, as well as finding a final solution to the debt ceiling."

Egypt inaugurates exact replica of King Tut's tomb in desert valley
By Mariam Rizk, AP Friday, May 2, 2014, 12:21 am TWN
LUXOR, Egypt -- Egypt on Wednesday inaugurated an exact replica of the tomb of King Tutankhamun in the desert valley where many of its ancient pharaohs were buried, aiming to protect the 3,300-year-old original from deterioration caused by visiting tourists.
The facsimile, in an underground chamber not far from the original in the Valley of the Kings, recreates the tomb down to minute detail. Spanish and Swiss experts recreated the elaborate wall murals using a 3D scanning technology. In the middle of the burial chamber stands a rectangular rock setting where in the original King Tut's sarcophagus and mummy once rested.
In a hall between the burial chamber and an antechamber hang photos and explanations of the discovery of the tomb and its treasures in 1922 by British archaeologist Howard Carter.
Egyptian tourism officials, who unveiled the replica Wednesday alongside foreign dignitaries, are hoping the exhibit will help revive a tourism industry that has been heavily battered by the country's unrest since the 2011 uprising that toppled autocrat Hosni Mubarak.
A pillar of the Egyptian economy, tourism plunged by more than 30 percent in 2011 and, after slowly building up the following year, was heavily hit again by a wave of violence surrounding the military's ouster last summer of Islamist President Mohammed Morsi. Tourism officials have said revenues in the first three months of this year fell 43 percent from the same period in 2013, down to around US$1.3 billion.
The 18th Dynasty King Tut has long been a major draw of tourists to Egypt — both his tomb in the Valley of the Kings on the western bank of the Nile opposite the southern city of Luxor, and the golden treasures uncovered in it, most of which are now in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo.
But the tomb has suffered from the crowds of tourists descending into it over the years. Tourists' breath damages the ancient stone and murals, and its walls expand and contract with changing temperatures, causing paint to flake off and opening fractures that dust enters, experts say.
"These tombs were never built to be visited, they were built to last for eternity," said Adam Lowe, of the Factum Foundation, a Madrid-based conservation organization that created the facsimile in collaboration with Zurich-based Society of the Friends of the Royal Tombs in Egypt and the Egyptian Tourism and Antiquities ministries.
"They lasted very successfully for 3,300 and in the 90 years since it has been open, it suffered a great deal," Lowe told The Associated Press. "All of the attempts to try and conserve it create more problems."
For the time being, the original Tut tomb will remain open, but tourism authorities are aiming to reduce visitors and steer them toward the replica, said Mohammed Osman, vice president of the Chamber of Tourist Companies. Ticket prices for the replica will be 50 Egyptian pounds, around US$7, half the price for visiting the original, he said.

Will taking antibiotics prevent me from participating in auditing?
No. Antibiotics work differently than drugs. A preclear taking antibiotics pursuant to a doctor's prescription should let their Director of Processing know, but this will not prevent them from receiving auditing. Many people claim that antibiotics work more rapidly and effectively when they receive auditing at the same time.

Catalina 27 weight / displacement
How much should a Catalina 27, standard rig, weigh?
I hauled my boat this week and the travellift recorded it as 9000 pounds. I thought it should be around 6750 pounds, It's a standard rig (34' mast), and it has an Atomic 4 inboard. It's a 1976 model, and I'm concerned that the hull absorbs water over the summer.
Has anyone weighed one of these and how much did it come out to? Did you use a crane and a load cell, or what other method?
-Marty Galligan, Kookaburra, Beverly, MA
I wouldn't put too much stock in what the travel lift gives you for your boat wieght.
The rated disp for a C27 is around the figure you quoted (6240 is the number, I think), but that's the brochure number for a empty boat. With all the gear aboard, full tanks, perhaps some absorption over time, it's going to be above that, Unlikley to be up to 9000 lbs though.
1982 C27 Standard Rig with outboard was about 7500lbs. A friend with DOT measured the weight. The talk is that the 6850lb "factory" weight was made without the engine installed since they offered an inboard and outboard model and only one weight.
weight varies
I have the original brochure for the 1974 Catalina 27. It states:
Standard Keel: 2700
Shoal Keel:3150
Standard Keel: 6850
Shoal Keel: 7300
By the way the standard mast is 34.50' and the tall rig is 36'
The weight is going to vary by year, gear, engine choice, sails, etc.;)
6850 pounds is the number I've been working with. I have A4 inboard, Std rig, dinette interior. I could see the 6850 climbing up to 7300 if I have to add for the engine and mast and rig. I can believe that the travellift weight gauge is off by 1000 pounds. But that still leaves 700 pounds unspoken for. I keep many of the cushions off the boat. I'd be pretty upset if it turns out that other C27's weigh 7300#, and I'm at 8300#! It's a little hard to win a race when you're carrying an extra 1000#.
-Marty (original poster)
Our 1980 C27 c/w 9.9 outboard, all rigging, and equipment for extended sailing, sitting on the trailer, weighs 9000lbs. I've weighed her several times on MOT weight scales (truck weigh scales) and it never varies more than a few lbs. The trailer itself weighs 1410 lbs.

"Tonight I just tried not to think," he said. "I tried not to be too fine. For some reason of late I've been thinking too much on the mound."
Just get up there and throw it – he thought… actually he didn't think – he just did. And my how it worked. One ball was smoked to the outfield, but it was just a long out. Fields got it stuff back – and just in time.
Georgia's furious rally would have gone for not, and the Dawgs would be up against the wall again if the Fields wasn't able to get back to his old self. The clutch Fields Georgia fans are accustomed to is throwing a combination of intimidation and confusion, and that's what he displayed tonight.
As soon as Georgia got the lead in the 8th innings coach David Perno rushed around a TV camera and screamed for the citadel-like Georgia bullpen to get Fields going. Perno knew Fields would come around – he stressed that Sunday. But, he knew Fields needed work. Perno, a now veteran coach who slashed his way through a who's who of college baseball coaches to get to the CWS Championship Series, had faith that his guy would get the job done when the game was tight – and he was dead on right.
Fields, who knows a thing or two about faith, decided he'd better get back to what he knows – trusting his God-given ability to throw a baseball, and not worrying about anything else.
"I think last year helped me get pretty mentally tough this year," he said. "You are going to have bad days. I wanted to quit thinking about negative stuff and go out there and pitch."

Joe Locke
Locke was in his early 20s when he moved to New York in 1981, and two years later, he wrote the score for the independent film/documentary El Salvador: Another Vietnam. The vibist's first several years in New York were a struggle, but as the '80s progressed, he found himself playing or recording as a sideman for Kenny Barron, Freddy Cole, Marvin "Smitty" Smith, Jerry Gonzalez, and others. In the '90s, he toured Japan with Eddie Henderson and was employed on albums by Henderson, Cole, Eddie, Grover Washington, Jr., Dianne Reeves, George Cables, Barbara Dennerlein, Hiram Bullock, and the Charles Mingus Ghost Band. Locke toured Russia four times with tenor saxophonist Igor Butman, one of the country's top jazzmen.
As a leader, Locke recorded several albums for the Danish SteepleChase label before joining Milestone/Fantasy's roster with 1995's Moment to Moment: The Music of Henry Mancini. His subsequent Milestone dates included 1997's Sound Tracks (which concentrated on songs from famous films) and 1998's Slander (And Other Love Songs). Beauty Burning followed in mid-2000; Storytelling appeared the following year. In 2002 Locke returned with his Storytelling band for State of Soul. For the Love of You arrived in 2010. ~ Alex Henderson

Struggle for identity fuels battle of civilisations
I was born a Bangladeshi-Muslim and, despite growing up in Australia, have seen religion seeping through all people derived from the subcontinent. The grandmother of a Hindu-Indian friend refused to eat food cooked in our kitchen, given its Muslim owners. She saw it not as rude but a natural response to her past: Indian partition was the defining event of her life.
My inner struggle to balance an Islamic background while living in the modern West, and an ancient Bengali identity with the secular, frontier attitude of modern Australia, mirrors the wider struggles within India, and the world. Narrow, fixed identities are at the core of many struggles; the perpetrators of the Mumbai attacks invoke being Muslim at the expense of all other aspects of their identity.
Determining our identities is part of modernity, and a key contributor to conflict. It will continue to be a defining issue of the 21st century. Mass migration and mixed marriages help stir the melting pot but the tension between a longing for the tribalism of nation and race, against the newer, more fluid forms of identity will be one of the key conflicts of the modern psyche.
Barack Obama's election to the US presidency has been called a post-racial event. According to this narrative, his biography transcends the normal categories of identity, for it intermingles race, religion and class. He was raised by a white mother but still identified as a black man; he was born poor but graduated from Harvard; he is a practising Christian but was exposed to Islam through his early schooling in a Javanese primary school. The questions Obama has thought about all his life dominate the world today.
Obama's rise symbolically brings to a close a century where narrow identities defined human conflict, from fierce nationalism to class warfare to religious bigotry. Its intellectual articulation was perhaps Samuel Huntington's 1996 book, The Clash Of Civilisations And The Remaking Of The World Order. He categorised conflict in civilisational terms, contrasting Western civilisation with "Muslim civilisation" and "Hindu civilisation", underlining the narrow characterisation of human groups.
But while Obama's story is significant, it has many similarities with that of the father of India, Jawaharlal Nehru. As with Obama speaking of his several worlds, Nehru spoke of being caught between the East and the West and not belonging to either. Just as Nehru tried to explain why he would never forget his duty to the Muslims, however divisive, Obama tries to communicate why he would never abandon Jeremiah Wright, his controversial black pastor.
Nehru appealed to the Brahmins to share power with the lower castes, as well as interpret the anger of the untouchables. Obama tries to give voice to the underclass by appealing to the higher consciousness of whites and blacks alike, as well as explain to whites the anger of blacks.
India is a prime example of how ancient identities and conflicts rising from them can be reinterpreted for modern conditions. The conflict in India has outwardly been between Muslims and Hindus but last week's attacks saw a new global twist.
It is unclear whether the attacks had any links with al-Qaeda but it has a unique mix of pre-modern ideas about social norms with a modern sense of globalism that taps into the longing for belonging. It is particularly attractive to those unable to find an identity in the usual categories of nation or race.
Instead, the idea of the umma, a global community of Muslims, becomes attractive. It appeals to the well-educated and the disenchanted, offering a system for regulating behaviour in any situation. Its failing is resorting to a narrow singular definition of the essence of the human self, in this case through religion.
There are many questions unanswered about Mumbai. But clearly, one of the key contributors was a yearning for a collective identity expressed in very narrow terms by perpetrators who elevated being Muslim at the expense of all else.
These narrow definitions not only diminish us as humans, but make the world much more flammable. In India, there is a particular danger of a mass uprising by Hindu fundamentalists.
Achieving harmony in our troubled world lies in the plurality of our identities, which are allowed to remain fluid as resources to be used in different situations, and as bulwarks against drives to categorise us as narrow, single entities.

I like solway's post and Elvis' is worth noting, too.
Minimum pattern density is that which will reliably (that doesn't mean half the time, either) put 5 pellets into the vital area of the bird you're trying to kill.
By the way, two BB's are not a reliable killer of birds, whereas 4 or 5 number 4's is.
Yes, birds are killed by one Golden Pellet every year. Does that mean that a load consisting of ONE pellet is a viable load?
Of course not.
Look at it this way: the more appropriately-sized shot you have in a pattern, the better the chance of ONE of those pellets striking a vital....and that's what you're looking for: at least ONE pellet in the vitals.
Well, since Ned has admitted to using Burrard's method of using the birds body weight in ounces to determine the area of the vital organs as the basis for determining the minimum pattern and since Burrard, in subsequent writings eschewed that method for something more empirical, you could say that Burrard himself was one. George Secor did some work on this as well. And, of course, there's the 25,000 or so necropsies by Roster and CONSEP that indicate that the numbers listed by ned are utterly ridiculous. And, if I recall correctly, there were several state game commissions that published data in support of these denser pattern recommendations.

31 Day Nail Challenge - Day 7 - Black and White (Freehand)Friday, May 18, 2012
Good morning, dear readers!

Costume Information
|Cost :
|Time Taken :
|50+ hours
|After my friend introduced me to No More Heroes and I came the second ranked assassin, I knew that I really wanted to cosplay her. :P The way her costume is a total contrast to her personality was a big hook for me -- sweet lolita with a sexy twist on a total whackjob assassin? Yes, please. It took a lot of planning to figure out how to go about constructing her dress, but I am very pleased with the final outcome.
I altered a pattern for a sundress and used cotton twill in hot pink, baby pink and white for this dress. The dress is a red-striped hot pink pattern, and I knew that it would nearly impossible to find the perfect fabric so I sewed each stripe onto the dress myself. The stripes were red satin ribbon -- I like the way this turned out, I think the satin against the twill gave the texture of the dress some interest. I made a lining from the baby pink and sewed the metal hoop skirt into that. Then came the most tedious part -- box pleating! Pleating took a very long time and there was so much of it, I had a scare that I would run out of fabrics and I didn't have enough time to run to the fabric store and get more! Thankfully I had enough. The sleeves were gathered to make them all poofy and I attached sleeve cuffs with the cute buttons on them. :P I made the garters myself, after having found the most perfect pink ruffle trim and I painted the evil stilettos of doom pink and attached ribbons. Batting gloves were a very lucky eBay find!
All in all I absolutely adore this costume, and although, just like my Stocking costume, there are some things that need to be altered which became apparent while wearing it (sash is a teensy bit too tight, dress is a little too big around the shoulders, ribbons need to be attached more securely to shoes), I can't wait to wear it again. :P
aw you were awesome ~I never got the time to ask for photos lol but I see you got one with our lee!
Great cosplay !
Oh, thank you! :D There should actually be more pictures of Lee and I together, but someone hasn't uploaded them yet... :P

USA Basketball officially announced the 29 players who will take part in the tryout for the World University Games team to play next month in Russia. Among those on the list was UC senior Sean Kilpatrick.
The WUGs take place every two years and Yancy Gates took part in the tryout in 2011, but didn't make the team that eventually went 7-1 despite finishing fifth in China.
Cutting the impressive tryout list down to 12 players won't be easy for Jim Boehiem and his staff who oversee the construction of the team. Kilpatrick's Twitter feed exploded with excitement as he found out last week of his inclusion in the June 24-30 training camp at USOC headquarters in Colorado Springs, Colo.
As all the different variable were weighed two months ago when Kilpatrick made his decision to return to UC, the opportunity to take part in USA basketball was one of the perks pushing him toward Clifton.
"With you coming back to school you'd be able to do a lot of things, especially with this program," Kilpatrick said of the camp, whose only criteria are the invitees be returning collegiate players. "Doing things that a lot of great players haven't done when they came to this school and being able to actually get my degree. That was really an amazing experience but as soon as he mentioned the USA thing I was really excited for it knowing that if I decided to leave I would never have a chance to go through the process with it. Staying, it really played a huge part."
As for his chances of making the team, he'll be competing with a crew of talented shooting guards for likely three or four spots. There are a few combo guards, but here's the list of shooting guards joining him at the tryout.
Player, team: Points, assists, 3-point percentage
Sean Kilpatrick, UC, 17.0 points, 1.9 assists, 30.7%
Eric Atkins, Notre Dame: 11.2 points, 5.2 assists, 41.5%
Markel Brown, Okla. St.: 15.2 points, 2.4 assists, 36.4%
Deonte Burton, Nevada: 16.3 points, 3.6 assists, 30.1%
Quinn Cook, Duke: 11.7 points, 5.3 assists, 39.3%
Bryce Cotton, Providence: 19.7 points, 2.9 assists, 36.4%
Spencer Dinwiddie, Colorado: 15.3 points, 3.0 assists, 33.8%
Yogi Ferrell, Indiana: 7.6 points, 4.1 assists, 30%
Treveon Graham, VCU: 15.1 points, 1.6 assists, 36.6%
Jerian Grant, Notre Dame: 13.3 points, 5.5 assists, 34.4%
P.J. Hairston, UNC: 14.6 points, 1.4 assists, 39.6%
Luke Hancock, Louisville: 8.1 points, 1.4 assists, 39.9%
Joe Harris, Virginia: 16.3, points, 2.2 assists, 42.5%
Tyler Haws, BYU: 21.7 points, 2.0 assists, 38.1%
Andre Hollins, Minnesota: 14.6 points, 3.4 assists, 41.8%
Rodney Hood, Duke: 10.2 points, 2.0 assists, 36.4% (2011 Miss. St.)
Chasson Randle, Stanford: 13.6 points, 2.6 assists, 35.9%
Kendall Williams, New Mexico: 13.3 points, 5.9 assists, 34.8%
There's only two guards on the list who scored more points per game than Kilpatrick did last season. Only Tyler Haws of BYU and Bryce Cotton of Providence filled it up more. Neither of their teams qualified for the NCAA tournament. The one stat Kilpatrick will need to show he's improved on will be his 3-point percentage, but though that number dipped from his previous two seasons where it sat at 37.6 percent.
Whenever I go against the best competition I play the best, for some reason," Kilpatrick said. "It will be great because you are playing against 30 of the top players in the country. You don't get a chance to do that on a regular basis when you are working out with your team and traveling back and forth to see your family. If I am able to do that for a whole week I can't imagine what's going to happen when I come here."
Beyond excitement, honor and prestige, inclusion in the camp places Kilpatrick into a summer regiment unparalleled during his basketball career. Most days he spends working out, whether on a stationary bike or basketball court, to prepare for the mile-high conditions in Colorado as well as the elite competition.
He knows to expect exhaustion thanks to words with Gates about his experience in the camp two years ago. Kilpatrick immediately picked the brain of his former teammate upon finding out he'd be participating.
"He said it's a lot of conditioning and a lot of running. With the stuff that I am doing now hopefully it will carry over with the USA thing," he said.
He's utilizing the typical in-season routine for his offseason regimen this year and gaining a jump on his game shape. The type of workouts he's putting himself through normally belong in the preseason training season, but now he's established a head start on those.
But for a player who was mildly recruited out of New York and earned his position off a redshirt season at UC, this invite means more than extra preparation for his senior year. Strapping on the USA uniform signifies a larger accomplishment.
"It's actually been amazing due to the fact I've worked all my life for a situation like this," Kilpatrick said. "'I'm just happy to be in that situation. A lot of guys don't really go there and tryout. Only like 30 guys going, 30 guys out of how many collegiate players? That's really a big deal."
How big could it be for Kilpatrick? Taking a look at the historical spike in production from the players who participated in the University Games for USA exposes an undeniable change. Few will reproduce the move made by Kenyon Martin after participated following his junior season. He evolved into the National Player of the Year and overall No. 1 draft pick.
Those types of improvement are more the exception than the rule. Looking at the 2011 group of USA players Draymond Green added 3.6 points and 2.0 rebounds per game, but nearly across the board players enjoyed similar statistics before and after the USA experience. As much as increased competition and exposure to a higher level of play can improve his game, most of the ascension toward his goal of the NBA comes in the preparation hours spent in the bowels of Fifth Third Arena practice facilities.
"The most important thing I need help on is my left hand. Every day I have just been in the gym working on that left hand and really sitting here trying to do quicker moves to get my shot off a lot faster because I know the type of defenses I'm going to have face this year," he said. "I just really want to help this team win. Continue to keep doing what I've been doing the last four years I've been here. That's just trying to be a leader."
Being a leader means more than yelling at freshmen and speaking to the media. It means thinking about more than his own personal agenda when enjoying opportunities such as the one in Colorado. It's a concept Kilpatrick takes to heart.
"It's important due to the fact I know I got this university depending on me," he said. "Going out there and actually representing my university, that's something that plays a huge part in it."
On his reaction to the honor:
It's actually been amazing due to the fact I've worked all my life for a situation like this. Being able to really sit down with coach and talk about it and now he's been working since the summer started to make these camps and make this USA team, it's been a real good experience.
On what he has been doing to prepare:
This. Just really working out. Coach, he's been telling me to stay in game shape and be able to stay in that shape where I don't get tired. if it comes down to me at least pedaling on that bike for 40 minutes a day then that's what I'm going to have to do to make this team.
On asking Yancy about the experience:
I asked him already. He said for first two days it's going to be hard due to the fact it's hard to breathe out there. And actually he said it's a lot of conditioning and a lot of running. With the stuff that I am doing now hopefully it will carry over with the USA thing.
On if he's ever been involved in anything like this, even on younger level:
This is actually my first time doing this. I thought actually it was going to be a camp until coach said the guys will be playing in Russia. I thought, Russia? Only time we've been out of the United States was Canada and you can't really count that, so, it's actually pretty good. I'm really excited for it.
On feedback he received when he decided he wasn't going to the NBA:
I spoke to coach about everything, he said really the most important thing I need help on is my left hand. Every day I have just been in the gym working on that left hand and really sitting here trying to do quicker moves to get my shot off a lot faster because I know the type of defenses I'm going to have face this year. I just really want to help this team win. Continue to keep doing what I've been doing the last four years I've been here. That's just trying to be a leader.
On this being a different team this year and what he's seen from the new players:
I say this every year to the guys that's coming in, especially because we know this is a new process for them. If you aren't going to come with your hard hat I don't know what to say to you. Not only are you going to hear it from me but you are really going to hear it from coach Cronin. He expects nothing but to give your best effort and go out there and play hard. The younger guys really have a sense of it.
I want to hear from you, shoot me any questions, comments or suggestions to firstname.lastname@example.com or hit me up on Twitter @pauldehnerjr.

physics(please help)
posted by POD .
a planet orbits a star with period T. As seen from that planet the star's diameter subtends an angle of theta radians. Show the density of the star is given by rou=24pi/G(T^2)theta^3
please help!!!
This calls for a combination of Kepler's third law (or Newton's gravitational and motion laws) and trigonometry.
Equating the gravitational attraction to the centripetal force tells you that
GM/R^2 = V^2/R = (2 pi R/T)^2/R
= 4 pi^2 R/T^2
(4 pi^2/G M) = T^2/R^3
where R is the distance from the planet to the star. I will let r be the diameter of the star.
The angle subtended by the star in radians is theta = 2 r/R
Now, the star's density = M/[(4/3) pi r^3]
= M/[(4/3) pi R^3]*(r/R)^3
= 4 pi^2/(G T^2)(r/R)^3 / [(4/3) pi]
= 3 pi/(G T^2)/(theta/2)^3
= 24 pi/[G T^2 (theta)^3]

btw does anyone have some hands on experience with a 38super caliber gun, if so please check my post on the subject, thanks
let me go ahead and appologize for the miscomunication on my part by refering sniping in the wrong sense. i was trying to find out the procedures, formulas, and calculations to take extremely long shots thats why i refered to sniping as the marines have the best to offer on the subject whether you are going to be a true sniper or use the knowledge for competition shooting as i am intending on doing, at the end of the day im just searching for the knowledge to do so. so again sorry on part for not correctly refering it as extreme long distance marksmenship, but i would like to learn more about sniping as well. my main goal was to learn formulas, as well as sniper training basics to exercise myself as i would like to take 600+yard shots after running my a** off. so please understand no harm intended and just want to learn the most i can about the subject, outside of joining the marines or air force as i am unable to for now
btw does anyone have some hands on experience with a 38super caliber gun, if so please check my post on the subject, thanks
Crikey! Glad we all hashed out the obvious that sniping and long distance marksmanship are not the same. Seems as though 45Sidekick has been satisfactorily flambeed for his terminology faux-pas. Are we trying to find out just how many apologies we can get out of the newcomer? Give the guy a break already.
45Sidekick, I'd suggest that you guard against ever referring to a magazine as a clip, or there might be a lynching.
first.... @mlb .....i aint looking for an apology or any other kowtowing from the new member, and forgive me in advance if i something i said gets your panties in a bunch..... didnt mean to make you cry..... but if he DOES call a magazine a clip i do hope someone educates him on the correct terminology.
@45sidekick.... i do hope you understand that its nothing personal with me, i am not and never was good enough to be a sniper for any military unit anywhere except maybe luxembourg. BUT i had scout/snipers on my fire team and i have the ultimate respect for them. anyone who can make 2 kill shots at 8000 feet is godlike in his ability to rain down death and destruction...... and yes, 8000 feet is 1.5 miles.
thanks mlb, teddebear its fine it seems like your almost as stuborn as me, but do understand that it was a mistake and not a huge one so no hard feelings
You guys are too uptight about the misuse of words. if one would have simply over-looked the fact to begin with this thread would be full of.... 2 useful posts to the OP.
yes there's a difference between a sniper and long distance shooting, bench rest or no. by the questions asked in the original post it was plainly obvious he wasn't talking about camoflouge fundamentals, cover and concealment, stealth, silence, approach and departure towards a target, using environments to your advantage, ect.
now if the thread could possibly continue with it's original intent, the discussion of long range shooting and the factors and equations involved in solving for said factors.
for example did you know the Navy was at one point effectively putting bullets down ranges of over 24 nautical miles? effective kills from over the horizon, now THATS sniping, :P
Go to the Millett sight home page link below. Click on "Shooting Tips from Major John Plaster" He may have been a sniper, but this is just "shooting".
The tips are a series of sorta short but VERY DETAILED items about individual considerations and techniques for LONG distance shooting.
They can be read on the site, but are most useful as PDF downloads suitable for reading and printing. And re-reading.
Millett Sights - Home
Disclaimer: I have no connection to Millet. Or the Major.
Last year I bought a Millet TRS-1 (Tactical Rifle Scope) 4x-16x by 50 mm. With their "Mil-Dotbar" illuminated reticle. Reset to zero "target/tactical knobs".
Their setup allows you to read and adjust elevation/windage knobs while your cheek is still "welded" to the stock.
Also, their site has the "Instruction and Operation Manual for the TRS-1. Presents how to use Mil-Dot reticles for long range shooting.
Their TRS-1 is on a Rem. 700 I bought back in the '90's. A Rem. 700 with stainless receiver, heavy stainless fluted barrel, composite stock. Harris bipod.
Rem. catalogued this as a "varmint rifle". Which it mostly was(is). Mine is the top of the range of Rem. "varmint cartridges". As in the Win. 308
nee 7.62 NATO. I have been known joke with friends it's for "very large varmints". It's basically the M40, except not all black.
The Millet replaced a standard reticle target scope. This "new" combination shoots very well. I am lucky enough to be able to go out to our Nat'l Forest.
Where I can try (try is the correct word) to make shots at "unknown distances well beyond 100 yards". The scope is designed to help you do just that.
I find this is a LOT more fun than trying to minimize a group at 100 yds, over and over and over again. Your mileage may vary.
I guess some folks might think I'm a "wanna be" sniper. Nope, at age 69 I just enjoy the "shooting challenge" different from the 100 yard target deal.
I don't even own any camo or black tactical clothing.
For some instant gratification try Googling "zeroing in long distance scope" and you will find many articles and discussions on the subject.
See: zeroing in long distance scope - Google Search
As for actual shooting, the same skills that get you bulls eyes at 100 and 200 yards will get you good marks at the longer distances. But your errors will be magnified by 3 or 6 times. So if you are shooting to 1" at 100 yards you might find your groups now at 6". Lots of practice involved (and no coffee just before shooting.)

We've gone over how to pinpoint your ancestors' 1940 census enumeration district(s) so you can zero in on their record.
Now, as a public service announcement to genealogists, we're carrying this important guest blog post from a noted expert in genealogical medicine regarding the 1940 census and avoiding research-related injury. Take it away, doctor:
Hello, I'm Dr. I.M. Enumerator, N.O.T.M.D. Significant clicking, scrolling and dragging will likely be required when you look for your ancestors in the 1940 census. And unfortunately, too much mousing can lead to a painful condition called 1940 Census Clicker's Wrist.
Hello, I'm Dr. I.M. Enumerator, N.O.T.M.D.
Significant clicking, scrolling and dragging will likely be required when you look for your ancestors in the 1940 census.
And unfortunately, too much mousing can lead to a painful condition called 1940 Census Clicker's Wrist.
Because the 1940 records constitute the first digital census release, we doctors aren't sure what to expect. But those of us familiar with the condition's close relative, 1930 Census Scroller's Elbow, believe it could cause a sore wrist and forearm, stiff "trigger finger" and inability to uncurl the fingers from a computer mouse.
Uncontrolled, 1940 Census Clicker's Wrist could sideline your census search and require professional extraction of the mouse. But there's no need to suffer. You can avoid the problem if you start this simple, three-step census training program now.**

And this little guy is 1/32nd Irish:
So this St. Patrick's Day, Leo and I will have to make the most of our respective slivers of Irishness.
Whether you're a lot or a little Irish, you share heritage with the second-largest heritage group in the United States. Here are some more stats:
50,000 to 100,000 Irish came to America in the 1600s, and 100,000 more in the 1700s. Eight signatures on the Declaration of Independence belonged to men of Irish descent.
In the American colonies, up to 90 percent of indentured servants were Irish.
About 250,000 Scots-Irish settlers from Ulster province arrived in the United States during the Colonial era. They were descended from Scottish and English tenant farmers settled in Ireland during the Plantation of Ulster.
In the century after 1820, about 5 million Irish arrived on US shores. Irish made up almost half of all US immigrants in the 1840s and one-third in the 1850s, the decades of the Great Potato Famine.
Today, Massachusetts is the most Irish state, with about a quarter of the population claiming Irish roots.
FamilyTreeMagazine.com has some great advice for tracing your Irish roots:

In this episode, former Pittsburgh Steelers player Jerome Bettis visits Kentucky to learn about his mom's roots. He didn't trace as many generations as in some other episodes, but I liked the attention spent on each person.
Bettis, an African-American, turned to newspapers for details not documented in official records. He found references to court cases for his great-grandfather being struck by his boss, and in a separate incident, his great-great-grandfather being hit by a train.
The deck was stacked against each man in his case, but Bettis discovered in court records that his great-great-grandfather Abe Bogard won his complaint against the Illinois Central Railroad. Bettis actually got to talk to someone who remembered hearing about the case from men employed by the railroad at the time.
One of my favorite aspects of this episode was the way a Western Kentucky University history professor showed Bettis how to trace his family into slavery. Presuming that the name Bogard was taken from a former owner, Bettis found a white Bogard family in the area and checked will records and slave dower lists (reports of slaves women had inherited).
They found a Jerry and Eliza, with a son Abe. I can't imagine the feeling that would hit you when you see a record showing that your family members were owned by other people, and monetary values placed on their heads.
The owner, Joseph Bogard, willed Bettis' ancestors to his wife. After she died, Abe and his parents were sold off to separate owners. The good news is that the 1870 census, the first US census to name former slaves, showed the family was reunited.
Here's a Western Kentucky University article about the professor's work with Bettis.
Here's a FamilyTreeMagazine.com article about making the jump from freed slaves in the 1870 census to enslaved ancestors in the 1850 and 1860 slave schedules.

High Speed Vibration when Brakes
Damn, I can't believe I start this thread, but here we go.
At high speed above 60MPH, if I hit the brake hard the whole car would shake.
Jacked the car up and all is tight. NO play in wheel bearings neither.
All front suspension components has been replaced within the last 10K miles.
I thought I may have a sticky caliper but when I check both wheels are spinning freely.
I'm going to bleed the brakes and see how this go, but first I will try the bedding procedure and see if this help.
I don't like the feeling at all, during high speed, very unsafe.
Hey Alex, I presume you used Lemforder parts during replacement?
In either case, I also presume you preloaded before tightening down thrust arm bolt?
I'm sure you know how and what to check and this seems more like a "venting/ranting" post.
Perhaps your surpercharger has added too much weight to the front making it less than ideal 50/50 distribution. Time to take that thing out!
Thanks for sharing and good luck!
Resurface the rotors.
Ha ha! Gene you're funnier than I thought, just so you know even with the added S/C weight mine is still lighter than yours . :)
Yes, all parts were Loemforder and pre-load during the arms installation.
Thanks for chime in though.
I have another solution, Keith is very good at solving vibration issues. Give him a call so you can replace everything again and again and again.:rofl:
Pad deposits on the rotors...
Try re-bedding them, BEFORE re-surfacing the rotors...
Find a clear open place (large parking lot after business hours) and try braking firmly in reverse a few times.... (Yeah.... I just make this sh*t up....) :)
- Re-bedding might have been OK when installing new pads.
If the pads are old and worn in, chances are: warped rotors.
- Even brand-new rotors may be a bit out of specs.
When you re-surface the rotors, you know it will true and straight.
- I go to my local OReilly autoparts often and they re-surface the rotors free for me.
Otherwise $10/rotor resurfacing.
Trust me, been there done that, resurface the rotors, the problem will go away.
I had done the re-surface once before on the same car but that didn't last long maybe about 2K miles or less.
I'm going to give it a good check tomorrow.
This morning.
-Checked strut mounts nuts. Nice and tight.
-Checked front rotors. They're beautiful looking, a uniformed gray color across, no visible hot spots or glazing of any kinks.
-Checked calipers bracket housing. Nice and tight.
-Checked calipers hanger rods. Nice and tight.
Went out and performed the zeckhausen brake bedding procedure.
The vibration has cut down drastically, not as sensitive as before when as soon as I touch the brake pedal the vibration was instantly vs now it would take about an inch down before the vibration kicks in but at a 25% scale of violence.
Now I'm not sure if the bedding procedure helped flatten the high spots (which I didn't see any to begin with or felt the pulsation in the pedal) OR perhaps in the process of bedding it helped remove the air out of the brake system.
I'm more leaning toward air in the system perhaps in the ABS module which is very hard to get rid off unless you have a tool to activate the ABS module while pressure bleed the brakes.
I will try to pressure bleed the brake and see if I can get rid of the last 25% remain vibration.
What do you guys think?
Which car is this: the 528 or the 530? Is your brake pedal a little squishy?
I just bled my brakes last weekend.
I could not believe how bad the brake fluid was in there...
The brake pedal is better...
I thought I had read something on the m5 board about a certain brake pad that people had used to clean up rotors from others pads that had put uneven deposits on the rotors. I could not find the thread, but I did find this re-posted response from Dave Z regarding high speed vibration in my search which may be helpful to you.
Scroll down to post #16 it won't let me link a single post for some reason
It mentions
Dave Z's response is pretty detailed so it might be helpful to you. Also the rest of that thread may also be useful
Alex, check this post.
If rebedding partially fixed the problem, it is likely deposits on the rotor are what is causing the vibration. When you rebed your pads, could you smell them? If not, go back and do it again until you can actually smell them. I used to have to rebed my previous pads regularly to eliminate squeaking.
Another thought about bedding:
If they are ceramic pads, i would not bed them - did it to my Akebono and lost total braking power one morning - the pads were glazed (bed them until they smelled....). Once the glazing was lost they performed OK.
If you have ceramic pads, I don't think they form deposits like the metallic pads. If this is the case (ceramic) look into my link above (rebuild calipers) or as other mentioned - resurface the rotors.
I don't think my rotors are warped hence no pulsation in pedal during brake.
I think I have air in the system caused the brakes to grab un-evenly and intern it has caused the the vibration.
I will try to get the brake pressure bleed sometime soon, if that doesn't help then I will probably going to rebuild my calipers. It looks easy enough. Thank you
I guess one can do all that bedding business by zeckhausen, which I find useful ONLY if you deal with brand-new pad/rotor.
With worn-in pads/rotors, in 99% of the cases, it is warped rotors. Resurface them and you are good to go.
In my case:
Sept 2009: new rotor
Sept 2010: vibration w/ braking, resurfaced rotors.
Now...smooth like silk 2 years later.
Hope you get it worked out Alex.

NEW DELHI – Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said Monday he has agreed with his Chinese counterpart to make a new push to settle a long-running border row, pledging his commitment to "peace and tranquility."
"We agreed that our special representatives will meet soon to continue discussions seeking an early agreement on a framework for a fair, reasonable and mutually acceptable boundary settlement," Singh said after talks with visiting Premier Li Keqiang.
"Peace and tranquility on our border has to be preserved," Singh said at a news conference in New Delhi.
Li's visit comes after a flareup last month in a long-running border dispute between the two countries in a remote Himalayan region.
New Delhi accused Chinese troops of intruding nearly 20 km into Indian-claimed territory, triggering a three-week standoff that was resolved when troops from both sides pulled back.
The Line of Actual Control between the nuclear-armed neighbors has never been formally demarcated, although they have signed accords to maintain peace in the region that was the site of a brief Indo-Chinese war in 1962.
Li said the border dispute is a historical hangover and that there is a desire on both sides to resolve it. "We have established the principles for settling the question," he added.

A warm Kaiser role from Christopher Plummer
Knew more about Wilhelm II than the movie reveals
Scott Marks 3:09 p.m., June 23
Kate Beckinsale slithers into Selene's vinyl catsuit once again for another round of Vampires vs. Werewolves...er, Lycans. Happily, much of the grandiose mythology has given way to scientific scheming and old-fashioned monster-movie fun. Specifically, the old-fashioned monster movies of Hammer Films, complete with glowering Brits (Charles Dance, channeling both Peter Cushing and Basil Rathbone), sardonic Irish (Stephen Rea!), and ungainly yet menacing werewolves. It's almost enough to make you forgive the heavy blue filter, turgid opening, and muddy storytelling. 2012.
