If you are looking for something really 'fulfilling' but not too big then the Small Torpedo is the electrode for you. Designed so most of the mass is in the head, the small torpedo is ideal for those seeking a 'full' electro experience, without taking that much girth.
Produced to our usual high standards with aircraft grade materials and a brushed aluminum effect finish these electrodes will, if cared for, last for years.
Unlike most other E-Stim electrodes on the market today the contact points are top and bottom rather than side to side, providing a more natural feeling action when the electrode moves.
As with all insertable electrodes, please you clean them before and after use. Ensure they are totally dry before storage.
Fitted with 4mm sockets, cable not included. Suitable for connection to any of our E-Stim control boxes.
This product is shipped to order and can take up to 20 working days to be collated and sent. For more information please see our Made to Order page.

Cape Wind.
What could be said about Cape Wind?! That depends on your own point of view. Some opinions are based on rhetorical ideology.
Cold hard facts.
If you are the President of Conservation Law Foundation, rhetorical notions are sufficient.
So much so, that Offshore Wind Advocate John Kassel President, CLF, has been on a advocacy campaign of ocean destruction to decimate what he claims to love.
These values are often associated with places: when we think of America, we think of the icons of America. Yellowstone. Zion. And New England's very own Acadia National Park. As Americans, preserving these natural treasures is among our proudest accomplishments. Our oceans should be no different. Here, in the Gulf of Maine, we have George's Bank, Stellwagen Bank, and Cashes Ledge – a spectacular undersea mountain range – where you find steep canyons, deep kelp forests, and vibrant, charismatic marine life. Their beauty and majesty are breathtaking.
The places he describes are the very places we harvest our seafood from. Natures infinite food producing ocean bottom.
All Natural. No Preservatives. With care, a never ending, virtually endless supply of fish and shell fish.
Also included in his article,
Just as there is no doubt that our oceans are treasures, so too is there no doubt that they are being damaged. Bottom trawlers damage huge swaths of the ocean floor with their heavy chains, doors and dredges, likened by some scientists to a bulldozer scraping the delicate floor of a pristine forest. New England's oceans are rising much faster than predicted. They are also becoming more acidic from harmful greenhouse gas emissions. Recent record increases in precipitation may even be fundamentally altering plankton production, jeopardizing the very productivity of our marine web of life.
As it stands, the commentary of ocean acidification is a legitimate argument.
As far as fundamentally altering plankton production, Kassel mentions nothing of pollution, like estrogen, and chemicals flushed through our bodies being injected into the ecosystem via sewerage treatment, which also have negative affects.
He does hammer away at the fishing industry's methods of modern day harvesting methods that he finds unpalatable.
I will argue, the notion is unfounded, while he bulldozes his Cape Wind preference as a harmless project that with just the right amount of pixie dust sprinkled on it, will deliver energy to New England with no environmental consequence!
11 years. That's how long we've been waiting for the promise of Cape Wind: clean, renewable energy; new, green jobs; reduced air emissions and carbon pollution; energy at a predictable price over the long-term; and energy security. At a time when the evidence of global warming is overwhelming, and the need for jobs critical, unleashing the potential of this home-grown offshore wind project can only be a good thing.
Now this is rhetorical hyperbole at its finest!
So, why isn't Cape Wind up and running? Because the Alliance to Protect Nantucket Sound, a pseudo-environmental organization backed and led by fossil fuel magnate Bill Koch, is hell bent on blocking it.
What is it about always blaming one evil entity for something that clearly lacks the support of the rate payers, or any fishermen of conscience that has a vested interest in preserving and protecting our ocean, from people like yourself who have no regard for it, even though you hypocritically claim you do?
The destruction you condone constructing this aberration, will bring even greater destruction to the ocean environment than the last century has trawling for fish.
Before you accuse any organization as pseudo, Mr. Kassel, maybe you should examine your organization, along with your "enviro - partners" at your Cape Wind Now website.
The Sierra Club.
Carl Pope, the Sierra Club's executive director, has traveled the country promoting natural gas's environmental benefits, sometimes alongside Aubrey McClendon, chief executive of Chesapeake Energy Corp., CHK+1.74% one of the biggest U.S. gas companies by production.
The national group's pro-gas stance has angered on-the-ground environmentalists in several states who say their concerns are being marginalized.
"It makes us look like the extremists that the industry wants to call us anyway," said Beth Little, a board member of the Sierra Club's West Virginia chapter, which is more skeptical about drilling than the national organization.
The rift in the Sierra Club, one of the country's oldest and most prominent conservation groups, highlights deep divisions in the broader environmental community over natural gas. And pressure from local activists is forcing some major environmental groups to revisit their positions on drilling.
What Does Wind Cost?
"The Energy Information Administration assumes the total overnight capital cost of an onshore wind turbine to be $1,497 per kilowatt (in 2008 dollars) and that of an offshore wind unit to be $2,998 per kilowatt. [18] These costs are below the estimated cost made by the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) and the American Council for Capital Formation (ACCF) of $2000 per kilowatt for onshore units and $3800 per kilowatt for offshore units (also in 2008 dollars).[19]. "
A question for you, John.
When will you approve or reject my comment?
We can't allow dirty energy interests to thwart our clean energy revolution. Not now – not when we've come so far. So please, stand with Cape Wind. Stand with Cape Wind Now.

This editorial is not accurate.
This project is environmentally irresponsible.
How any environmentalist can ignore the damage to the eco system that they crucify fishermen over, is obscene.
To ignore the assult of the ocean bottom that will be supported with your short sighted position is revealing.
80% approve? Hogwash.
This is an ocean destroying industrial complex.

A Dayton resident who was armed with a knife during a theft at the Aurora Farms Premium Outlets on South Chillicothe Road in June 2012 has been sentenced to two years in prison after pleading guilty to a robbery charge.
Shawn P. Byrd, 45, recently was sentenced by Portage County Common Pleas Judge Laurie Pittman. He pleaded guilty to robbery, a third-degree felony, on Nov. 14, 2012, and faced a maximum of three years in prison.
Pittman gave Byrd credit for 50 days already served in the Portage County jail while awaiting sentencing. She also fined him $500, according to her sentencing order.
According to their indictment, Byrd and Christina M. Waitzman, 35, also of Dayton, entered the Saks Off Fifth Ave. outlet store on June 19, 2012. They proceeded to steal eight pairs of designer sunglasses, worth approximately $1,020, and attempted to leave when they were confronted by an employee.
According to Aurora police, the employee saw a knife in Byrd's front pocket and Byrd forced his way past the employee in an attempt to get away. Eventually tracked down and stopped by police, Byrd and Waitzman were found carrying the stolen items, wire cutters, a screwdriver and bags lined with duct tape they allegedly brought with them in order to fool store security sensors.
Waitzman's trial on charges of aggravated robbery, a first-degree felony, theft and possession of criminal tools, both fifth-degree felonies, is scheduled for Feb. 20 in Pittman's courtroom, according to court records.

Why only 2 years? This guy will get free medical, 3 meals a day, a warm place to stay, free use of a gym, free color TV for 2 years. Wow, what a punishment.
I'll bet the area grocery stores are so happy now that Mr. O'Brien has revealed how to beat the food store security "bags lined with duct tape they allegedly brought with them in order to fool store security sensors". Who new? That's why I try and read the Record Courier dailey. You never know what you will learn. I bet duct tape sales go up.

I think the name should be William Alderton's alleged son, but someone keeps changing the name to Alderton. I think this may cause confusion because there were two Aldertons (one in the book, one in the movie). One of them thought their father was named Arkie, and the other thought his dad's name was William, respectively. What do you think? MTG1989 01:12, August 11, 2011 (UTC)
- This wizard's name is "Alderton", according to the DVD subtitles of Deathly Hallows: Part 1. As we have a name, we don't need to use the conjectural and descriptive "William Alderton's alleged son". As for Arkie Alderton's alleged son, for that one we have to use the conjectural title as a) he is never referred to as "Alderton", or anything else for that matter, and b) he is never identified (he could be easily lying to evade imprisonment, and not be called "Alderton" at all). -- Seth Cooper owl post! 01:22, August 11, 2011 (UTC)
- I've added a "youmay" tag to the article to avoid confusion. -- Seth Cooper owl post! 01:25, August 11, 2011 (UTC)
- But DVD subtitles can be wrong and the movie Alderton could be lying too. MTG1989 01:37, August 11, 2011 (UTC)
- The subtitles in the DVD were officially released and are an inherent part of the film. They are, as such, second-tier canon that specifically say he was called Alderton. -- Seth Cooper owl post! 01:41, August 11, 2011 (UTC)
- I guess so. But still, he is only referred to as Alderton in the subtitles, and he was the alleged son of William Alderton. But still, you should do what you think is right, you are a very good administrator, and I thank you for that. MTG1989 01:54, August 11, 2011 (UTC)
I don't think that saying he had a family member called "Alderton" particularly helps. As it links to Arkie Alderton's alleged son, perhaps that should be his name.

Alternative metrics of impact or altmetrics are a new way to measure and track the social impact of research in real time. Altmetrics track research uptake via social media, citation counting, mentions or bookmarks, attention to high profile blogs, and even Wikipedia references.
Altmetrics allows us to expand our view of what's making the impact and what it looks like in a scholarly environment that is becoming more diverse. Articles are increasingly joined by:
The diversity of altmetrics will be essential to sift these new forms, since they're outside the scope of traditional filters and help us measure the aggregate impact of the research enterprise itself.
Advantages to leverage altmetrics for individual and group assessments. Limitations and the potential for gaming the system with altmetrics.
There is an interesting relationship between altmetrics and open access. One could even refer to altmetrics as open metrics, since altmetrics data use open sources. Altmetrics in turn provide APIs for embedding altmetrics into institutional repositories or third-party systems. Open access research outputs that are themselves promoted via social web applications enjoy higher visibility and accessibility than those published within the commercial scholarly communication model, increasing the prospect of public consumption and engagement.

July Ono had been buying used cars online for years without problems.
So she was stunned when she got a panicked phone call three years ago from a friend saying the Jeep Ono bought a month earlier was being towed away by a bailiff.
In hindsight, Ono says she had been suspicious of the tall, charming stranger who had posted his car for sale on Craigslist.
"I was sitting there going, July, there's just something wrong with this person," said the 50-year-old real estate investment adviser. "But I just couldn't figure out what it was."
Ono took the vehicle for a test drive and had it inspected at a dealership. Everything seemed to be in working order.
It was only when Ono got the late-night call while out of town on business that she discovered the seller had used it as collateral on a loan a month earlier.
Online car classifieds can offer convenience and bargain prices, but experts recommend taking precautions to protect yourself from scammers and "curbsiders," full-time fraud artists pretending to be private sellers.
About one in five Canadians who buy or sell used cars online encounter scammers or fraud, according to a recent report by the Automobile Consumer Coalition.
Out of more than 1,000 people polled, 13 per cent said they were contacted by fraudulent buyers who offered to overpay for their car with a phoney cheque, asking the seller to refund the difference.
Another 12 per cent came across listings posted by suspected curbsiders.
Yet 76 per cent of respondents said they weren't worried about fraud.
Online surveys cannot be assigned a margin of error because they do not randomly sample the population, according to the polling industry's professional body, the Marketing Research and Intelligence Association.
Approximately 600,000 of the three million used cars that Canadians buy and sell each year are sold on sites like Craigslist and Kijiji, according to research compiled by the coalition.
"This problem is going to get worse and worse," said Mohamed Bouchama, director of the Toronto-based consumer advocacy group.
"More people are using the Internet because of the convenience. Lots of people don't want to go visit five, six, seven dealerships."
George Iny, director of the Automobile Protection Association, recommends looking for mid-priced cars rather than going for the cheapest one listed when you're shopping for used vehicles.
"Don't be a price junkie," said Iny. "The seller always knows more than you. If the car is priced below market, it's almost always for a reason."
Buying junk will often cost you more in the long run, as you foot the bill for pricey repairs.
"The cost of taking something that's in average condition and making it good condition is higher than the premium you'd pay just to buy the same vehicle in good condition," said Iny.
When buying a used car, Iny and Bouchama both recommend getting it inspected before you fork over the cash. You can either take the vehicle to a garage, or look for a mobile inspector who will come to you.
Always ask to see the vehicle ownership and the seller's driver's licence to make sure the names match, said Bouchama.
Check the car's history, which will show you how many times the car transferred ownership, if it was a write-off or if it's been in a major accident.
Bouchama suggests buying from a dealer because of the added level of accountability. But if you're going to do so, Iny recommends keeping a sharp eye out for hidden fees.
Provincial laws in Ontario, Quebec, B.C. and Alberta require all-in pricing, but violations do occur.
"The advantage of the dealers is that if there is a problem, there's somebody you can sue," said Iny.
"A private seller may not be around, or you won't find them if they're a curber."
If you're selling your car online, be very cautious any time someone offers more than the car is worth, said Bouchama.
He also recommends taking a bank draft or cash — never certified cheques because they're easily forged.
Consider setting up a temporary email and phone number to conduct the sale, and always bring someone with you when meeting a potential buyer.
"You never know who you're dealing with," said Bouchama. "There are some scary people out there, especially if you have a very nice car to sell."
An extreme example is the recent death of a 32-year-old Ontario man who was killed after he took two men for a test drive in the Dodge Ram truck he was selling.
Despite the fact that the Internet is an accessible platform for scammers and fraud artists, it also provides consumers with a wealth of information.
"If you want to know how much to pay, the Internet has really empowered buyers," said Iny. "It's made experts out of amateurs."Report Typo/Error

As Content Editor for NaturallyCurly, I have gotten to try a lot of different products so that I can give my sincere review for any who might benefit from it. This June, I received a few products from Brock Beauty, including the well-known Hairfinity Vitamins. I will share more later about my makeover with each of the Brock Beauty products in the next few days. Right now I want to talk about my favorite so far, of all the Brock Beauty products I've tried: Infinite Lash! Infinite Lash is my favorite makeover product from Brock Beauty because I have seen significant before and after results! Who doesn't enjoy a good before and after story?
Anyhow, before I do anymore raving about Infinite Lash, I should probably tell you a little bit more about it.
Infinite Lash is an eyelash enhancement serum that Brock Beauty claims "promotes thicker, fuller, and longer looking lashes." It is meant to "thicken the hair follicles while hydrating and strengthening weak and brittle lashes."
What's Inside?
Infinite Lash is a blend of botanicals, vitamins, minerals and polypeptides or proteins. If you are wondering if it's safe contact lens wearers, fear not! I wear contacts almost daily, and I haven't had any problems or suffered from any eye irritation. Everyone is different, though, so I would recommend trying it out over a weekend in case you have any reactions to it.
Here's is the ingredient list: Water, Glycerin, Hyaluronic Acid, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17, Myristoyl Pentapeptide-16, Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract(Licorice), Camelia Sinensis Leaf Extract(White Tea), Euphrasia Officinalis Extract(Eyebright), Rosa Centifolia Flower Water(Rose), Tocopheryl Acetate, Retinyl Palmitate, Ascorbic Acid, Allantoin, Panthenol, Pentylene Glycol, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Panthenyl Ethyl Ether, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Triethanolamine

Age of Mythology
Review by EggReaper
"The Hammer of Thor"
I read a lot about Greek and Norse mythology and I wanted to play a game that had one of those in it. So, I asked a guy at the store and he told me about Age of Mythology. I then bought it a year later and I have played it everyday since I bought it. I can't keep myself from playing it.
Game Play: 10
If you want to throw lightning bolts, you can. If you want to summon the Sphinxes, you can. If you want to beat your enemies mercilessly, to please the gods, you can. You can use the original powers of the gods and crush your enemies. You can make armies, derived from three different materials, gold, wood, and food. The powers that the gods use make some things very easy, if you use them correctly. Somewhere between the meteor shower and the lightning storm I thought of giving this a ten. Then I used the plague of serpents and the ancestry (brings forth an army of the dead) powers. But it needs more levels.
Graphics: 9
Computer graphics are not always the best, but I was proved wrong the second I turned on the game, the video sequence was awesome. The characters are easily distinguished from one another, and the landscape looks very good.
Sound: 10
I play this game with headphones on and tune everything else out. It is like I am transported to Greece, or Egypt, or Scandinavia. It is very well in the sound department. The war cries of the soldiers are great and the sound of the god powers rule.
Plot: 9
You are a Greek hero who battles during the Trojan War, but he finds out that there is something afoul with it all. It just so happens that there is a Giant Cyclops trying to gain immortality by breaking the gates to Hades so Poseidon can take over. It leads to several battles, some being true in the legends. He travels far to become acquainted with the Egyptian and Norse gods.
Difficulty: 6
Not a walk in the park, but not mission impossible either. Its just the difficulty that you would want for a game like this. Some of the beginning levels are quick but some take well over an hour, but none of it is so hard you would cover yourself in bacon over. I think it is perfect for this game.
Multi player: 9
I am not a big fan of multi player real time games but when I played this I screamed ''PENGUIN'' out loud.(I don't know why) Either way, you can compete against each other using different armies of different places around the globe. Trust me it is really, really good.
Replay Value: 8
Don't play the entire thing over, just play certain levels differently. I did one level with all mythological creatures and then did the level over with archers and axe men. There are many ways to do beat levels. You can attack on land, by water, or by air (rarely).
+Great Story
+Not too hard
+Very fun
+Good graphics
+Lots of ways to play
-Need more levels

Liriano stands out, leads Bucs to victory over Cubs
CHICAGO — There wasn't one pitch in particular that disobeyed left-hander Francisco Liriano in Friday's game against the Chicago Cubs.
"It was everything," he said. "I was missing with my fastball, changeup, slider. I was all over the place. Everything was down, but I was missing my spots a lot."
But for a veteran pitcher like Liriano, crummy command doesn't necessarily lead to a rotten outing. He churned out seven scoreless innings to pace the Pirates to a 2-0 victory against the Cubs at Wrigley Field.
Liriano (4-2) allowed just two hits (both singles), walked five and struck out eight. It was the fifth time in six starts that he's given up one run or less.
After being swept by the Atlanta Braves in a three-game set earlier in the week, the Pirates got back on track by beating the Cubs for the fourth time in a row.
Most of the credit, as usual, goes to the pitching staff. After Liriano softened up the Cubs, relievers Mark Melancon and Jason Grilli made the slender lead hold up.
The Pirates have scored two or fewer runs in six of their 10 shutouts this season. In none of those 10 games did a starter go beyond the seventh inning.
When the offense struggles the way it has been, every inning becomes a high-leverage frame for the starters and relievers.
"It hasn't been just the eighth or the ninth," manager Clint Hurdle said. "It's been a lot of different points and times, so everybody out there has contributed."
Melancon found a bright side to the glut of high-stress outings.
"When you're put in a situation where it's a one-run game, it's nice to have a few under your belt before you go out there," Melancon said. "That can only help us in the long run."
Liriano walked Anthony Rizzo to start the fourth inning. His second pitch to Alfonso Soriano was a fastball that stayed straight and up in the zone. Soriano blasted it, but the wind was blowing in off Lake Michigan, and center fielder Andrew McCutchen made the catch.
"I was so happy I got away with that pitch," Liriano said. "A great day to have the wind blowing in."
Liriano held the Cubs hitless until the fifth, when pitcher Travis Wood slapped a one-out single to left field. Chicago had runners at second and third with two outs, but a mound visit by pitching coach Ray Searage allowed Liriano to regroup. He fired a laser on the outside edge to Rizzo, who took it for an inning-ending strikeout.
"All his pitches are deceiving," catcher Russell Martin said. "He has his fastball arm speed on both his off-speed pitches, which throws hitters off a little bit. And he throws every pitch with conviction."
The Pirates finally broke through against Wood (5-4) in the sixth. Jordy Mercer hit a one-out double, then went to third on McCutchen's fly out to center. Gaby Sanchez walked. First-pitch swinging, Martin lined an RBI double into the left-field corner.
"I was just looking for something out over the plate," Martin said. "Travis is so good at mixing speeds, throwing that cutter to both sides of the plate, changing eye levels. I told my self to be aggressive. I wasn't going to wait around because he was throwing a lot of strikes."
In the ninth, Martin drew a leadoff walk from righty reliever Carlos Villanueva. Pedro Alvarez singled, moving Martin to third base. Travis Snider reached on a fielder's choice grounder, which scored Martin.

text: Apple today released an update to its Mac mini line, bringing Intel's Sandy Bridge platform to the diminutive desktop computer along with new support for the Thunderbolt connectivity standard being pushed by Apple and Intel. The new Mac mini lineup consists of two standard stock configurations alongside a "server" model. Notably, all models drop the optical disc in favor of an optional external SuperDrive. Standard models - 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5, 500 GB hard drive, 2 GB RAM: $599 - 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5, 500 GB hard drive, 4 GB RAM: $799 Server model - 2.0 GHz, dual 500 GB hard drives, 4 GB RAM: $999 Additional build-to-order options include an upgrade to 8 GB of RAM, up to 750 GB hard drives, and an external SuperDrive. The high-end standard model and the server model can also be configured with one (standard) or two (server) 256 GB solid-state drives. All Mac mini models ship with OS X Lion pre-installed. Alongside the new Mac mini models, Apple also announced a new Apple Thunderbolt Display. Appearing nearly identical to the previous 27-inch LED Cinema Display, the primary upgrade to Apple's sole standalone display offering is Thunderbolt compatibility, enabling the device to be used within daisy-chained configurations of the new high-speed data and display connectivity standard. With the new standard, users can for the first time run two displays off of a single Thunderbolt port on Macs offering enough graphics horsepower to support the pixel load. The upgrade to Thunderbolt also allows Apple to turn the display into an "ultimate docking station", with the new display now offering a built-in FaceTime HD camera, 2.1 speaker system, three USB ports, one Firewire 800 port, one Gigabit Ethernet port, and a second Thunderbolt port to enable daisy chaining. An integrated MagSafe cable for powering connected notebook computers also continues to be offered. Images of the new Thunderbolt-enabled LED Cinema Display leaked on Apple's site late last week, foreshadowing their arrival alongside the Mac minis that do not ship with an included display. The new LED Cinema Display will be available within the next 60 days and is priced at $999. Article Link: Apple Releases New Sandy Bridge Mac Minis and Thunderbolt Display

Maybe it's proof that they, too, have had a wonderful life.
A Colorado couple has bought the 1919 Dodge Brothers Touring Car that appeared in the holiday classic movie It's a Wonderful Life. It's the car that George Bailey, played by James Stewart, crashes into a tree, The Tribune of Greeley, Colo., reports.
Keith and Marilyn Smith plan to add the old car to their collection.
Says the Tribune:
The fender of the Dodge, which was dented in the movie, has been fixed. As part of his hobby/retirement job, Keith Smith repainted the old car in the early 1990s, and this month, the couple bought it from a California car collector. It was delivered to their home west of Johnstown on Friday afternoon.
It's a Wonderful Life is one of those movies that didn't do all that great in its initial release, but became a classic by being replayed every year on television during the holidays.
The Smiths are sure they have the correct car. They have the original title, which shows it was owned by 20th Century Fox and other proof.

I just got done moving into this house, its a tactical nightmare. There are three doors to this house the front and back are adjacent from each other and the side is directly inline with the hallway that leads to the bed rooms. Basiclly I step out of the bed room got to make sure no ones in the door frame then I would have to clear out two rooms at once or just hope all the bad guys are using the same door. If your wondering I didn't get to pick the house the wife did and I just got a surprise when I got back to the us.
View from my bedroom.
good news you could pull a badass rambo move like jumping off the stairs and shooting... joking
I think the stairway configuration can be used to your advantage. Install some HID lights at each turn, facing down the stairs - flip a switch and anyone coming up gets blinded :cool:
2 Attachment(s)
One is from the bedroom door to the side door the other is from the front door to the back. No real way to cover the other two doors without exposing my back to the other and if someone was standing in the other door way they could just take me out when I poke my head out of the bedroom. What I can't figure out is why in the hell someone decided to put two doors leading out side in the same room.
Im guessing the two doors was installed for more fire exit precaution. Looks like its going to be a 2 man clear house so you have someone to watch your back. good luck with that.
Or use a AA-12 and simply saw through the whole thing !
yaaa just me and my wife... maybe I should brick up one of the doors so I don't have to worry about getting shot by her as well as the bugulurs. Or I could get claymores and just put it on the back door any one know where I can get some?
Lights, mirrors and security cameras. my security system has a panel in my bedroom and will let me know when and which door or window is opened. Motion sensors will give me a location of where an intruder is. I am considering installing security cameras also.
If you want to go all out, remote control shotguns monitored by security cameras. Semi auto with a fixed aim point and solenoid operated trigger. Keyed arming switch and a separate firing switch. Push a button and the gun fires.:eek: It is not a trap gun unless it is self operated. It may seem far out but I have seen this set up only the guns could be aimed remotely. A lot of bucks in that system.

You absolutely and positively *DO NOT* want to run H&R Race Springs (or any Race Springs for that matter) with KONI FSD Shocks. The FSDs are not valved for an aggressively rated spring and have only been approved for use by KONI to run with mildly rated springs like the Pro-Kit Springs from Eibach. You can probably get away with using something like an H&R OE Sport (and *maybe* H&R Sport) with the FSDs, but you definitely do not want to do it with Race Springs. If you decide to, not only is it not going to ride as good, but if you do run them with H&R Race Springs and decide to warranty them should you have to (with is probably inevitable with that combo - especially with aggressive driving), KONI is not going to honor the warranty (if indeed you tell them what springs you're using with them). If you're dead set on running FSDs - then use Eibach Pro-Kit Springs. If you're dead set on running H&R Race Springs, then run them with KONI or Bilstein Sport Shocks. We're a direct Warehouse Distributor for KONI, Eibach, and H&R, and can give you some one-one-one consultation on your suspension and what might work best for you based on your driving, if you need it some help. Feel free to PM us with any questions.

Petit dazzles over 8, Grizzlies fail to score in 1-0 loss
Yusmeiro Petit allows one run over 8, fanning 6 in losing effort
By Doug Greenwald / Fresno Grizzlies | August 14, 2013 11:45 AM ET
Papillion, Ne.---Omaha Storm Chasers (62-63) right fielder Anthony Seratelli (11) belted a home run to right field in the bottom of the first inning in what turned out to be the only run of the contest in a 1-0 Wednesday afternoon win over the Fresno Grizzlies (58-66) at Werner Park. Seratelli delivered the game-deciding clout with two out against Fresno right-handed starter Yusmeiro Petit (5-6).
It was a tough-luck loss for Petit who retired 18-of-the-first-19 batters. He ended up with an eight-inning complete game. Including the home run, he gave up four hits, one run (earned), he had no walks, and struck out six.
Fresno had chance after chance. The Grizzlies left 11 runners on base, and were never set down in order. The closest the Grizzlies came to scoring was in the fifth inning when they had the bases loaded and one out. Left fielder Francisco Peguero lifted a fly ball to right field which Seratelli caught. Grizzlies center fielder Gary Brown tagged from third but was thrown out at the plate.
Right-handed starter Yordano Ventura (5-3) earned the win for Omaha. He pitched six shutout innings, gave up six hits, five walks, and had four strikeouts. Right-hander Michael Mariot worked innings seven, and eight, and left-hander Will Smith (4) despite giving up a hit earned the save.
It was the second time on this road trip in which Fresno has been shutout, and the eighth time overall this season where they it has been blanked. The complete game for Petit was his first since last season with Fresno, and the second by a Grizzlie this year. Chris Heston pitched a nine-inning complete game shutout against Tucson on June 13th in Fresno. It was Omaha's eighth pitched shutout this season.
Fresno, which is now 2-5 on this road trip looks to salvage a split of the scheduled four-game series on Thursday night at Werner Park. Left-hander Eric Surkamp (4-1) will start for Fresno against Omaha left-handed probable Chris Dwyer (8-9). The first pitch will be at 5:05 PST.
It was the second time this season the Grizzlies lost 1-0. And each time it has been by a two-out first inning run. Fresno fell 1-0 to Sacramento on the Fourth of July at Chukchansi Park.

The Ada County Highway District Commission has adopted an ordinance
regulating signs that we hope will make it easier for you to know where to
place your signs while also ensuring that safety is maintained for
motorists, pedestrians and cyclists.
Candidates are welcomed and encouraged to place signs where they will do you
the most good – as long as they are far enough back from the roadside or
intersection to avoid creating a sight obstruction.
Provisions of the ordinance include:
Ada County and the cities within Ada County may have sign ordinances that
are more restrictive than ACHD Section 5104.3.5. If so, the more restrictive
standard shall apply. It is the responsibility of those placing signs in the
public right-of-way to be aware of those regulations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What happens if my sign is placed in a location that
violates ACHD's sign ordinance?
A: The ordinance governs ACHD enforcement authority
to remove signs that are placed within the public right-of-way in a
location that violates the ordinance or are otherwise creating
hazards specified in the ordinance and the option to recoup the
costs for enforcement. If you believe that any sign is placed in a
manner that violates ACHD's sign ordinance, please contact ACHD's
Traffic Services Department at 387-6140.
Q: What happens if my sign is placed on public or private
property without permission of the property owner?
A: Signs placed on public property
(non-right-of-way) or private property without the permission of the
property owner are a violation of Idaho Code Section 18-7029 and are
subject to criminal misdemeanor prosecution by the county or city
prosecutor. In the event you believe that a sign has been placed in
a manner that violates Idaho Code Section 18-7029, please contact
your local law enforcement office. ACHD is not responsible for
enforcing any violation of this criminal statute.
Q: What does ACHD do with the signs it removes?
A: If ACHD removes a sign that is determined to be
in an unsafe location, it will hold the sign at its headquarters,
located at 3775 Adams St., Garden City. If you believe that ACHD
may have removed your sign, it is best to call and confirm. ACHD can
be reached at 387-6100 and is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m.
to 4:30 p.m.
Q: How soon after Election Day do I need to remove my signs?
A: Signs must be removed from the public right-of-way
within 48 hours after the election.
Q: Who should I call if I have questions about sign
placement in the public right-of-way?
A: If you have questions regarding where you may place your
campaign signs, please call ACHD's Traffic Services Department at
to see state law and municipal ordinances regulating sign placement.

I wasn't really that excited because he led the team and was always there for me when I had questions. He was my guardian angel. I was excited at one point but I'd rather have my brothers with me.
On his role:
With the fullback, whenever we go 21, I go in at fullback. Most times we're going 1 back and we will split the reps between me, Gus, and DeAndre.
On the spring:
It's a lot of running. You have to be in good condition. We have a lot of run plays. It's split between the three of us. We have three team periods and all of us need a certain amount of reps. There's certain plays that we each run.
On his skill set:
I'm more of a power back. When I break out, you just gotta be able to catch me.
On his weight:
I'm at 220 right now. I wanna get back to 215 to get back my speed and have the explosiveness and power, too.
On coming here as a LB:
I had a feeling I'd play defense, linebacker. I feel real comfortable at running back now. Linebacker was too complicated with all the plays. That confused me.

Post Market Study
Device: EPIK™ uni-compartmental knee
This device is intended for partial replacement of the articulating surfaces of the knee when only one side of the joint is affected due to compartmental primary degenerative or post-traumatic degenerative disease, previous tibial condyle or plateau fractures, deformity, or revision of previous arthroplasty.
Other Name: EPIK
Detailed Description:
Medial uni-compartmental knee replacement (UKA) has been used for over 40 years to treat osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. It is becoming more widely accepted as a treatment for early stage OA of the knee in order to preserve bony and ligamentous structures. The majority of the subjects who have received this knee are older (over 65 yrs) however, it is being used increasingly more frequently in younger individuals who have uni-compartmental knee disease so that bone may be spared in case the need arises in the future for a total knee arthroplasty. The study will take place at two sites within the United States and be managed by the Clinical Affairs Department at DJO Surgical in Austin, TX. The study will include only subjects who meet the indications for use criteria for the EPIK™ Uni-compartmental Knee System and who are candidates for UKA. Investigators will enroll up to 60 subjects at each of 2 sites within the United States, for a total of 100 subjects maximum.

I had open rhinoplasty 10 weeks ago. How can I best monitor the healing process - because sometimes i fell it's too swollen sometimes I think it's just ok and it needs some time. So, can you please give me some tips on what to look for or what to be concerned about. For example, it's not obvious but my right side is more swollen than the left one - is this ok? Also, how long before it's noticeable the healing of the bridge; it looked perfect for 2 days after i've taken the cast of. Thanks!

{{ voteCount >= 0 ? '+' + (voteCount + 1) : (voteCount + 1) }}
The asymmetry you notice 10 weeks after rhinoplasty is normal and secondary to uneven resolution of your swelling. There is really nothing to monitor because changes vary among individuals as healing progresses. If questions do arise, I suggest you contact your surgeon.

Pumpkin Flower - Poem by Ko Un
For thirty-three years as a poet
I merrily defined what beauty was.
Each time, without hesitation
I would declare: beauty is like this, or:
this is a betrayal of beauty.
I went crazy over several different kinds
of aesthetic theory.
But beauty was never
in those aesthetic theories.
I was falling asleep
with the light on.
What fear in the days gone by!
From now on I will strictly refrain
from any definitions of beauty!
Define away!
Define away!
As if beauty can ever be defined!
All through the weeks of summer rain
no flowers bloomed on the pumpkin creepers.
Now the rains are over
and at long long last a flower has bloomed,
inside it a bee is quivering,
outside it I am quivering.
Pumpkin flower brimming full of life:
you are true beauty!
