Be Careful!!!
on 16/02/2014
I found out (shortly after completely lathering my face with honey) that I am allergic. My face immediately began to itch, so i washed it off with soap and water. What I found when I looked in the mirror was a scary red, hot, puffy face. So PLEASE make sure to test your skin before you try this. The only reason I didn't give it a one is because it seems to have worked for other people, so I think that you should give it a go.

Do I need to modify some of the exercises? Specifically, I'm concerned about box jumps. Will they put too much stress on my heart?
Do I need to modify some of the exercises? Specifically, I'm concerned about box jumps. Will they put too much stress on my heart?
In my non-professional opinion, it isn't about age at all. It all depends on you and your current level of fitness. Why would you have a particular concern for your heart because of box jumps? Or do you have a different specific concern for your heart? Or your legs?
Remember, it isn't as if you have to use a 24" box. You could go with a 4" box or just do jumps in place after all.
I'm concerned about my heart because that is what could kill me. Your heart rate goes down as you age, that's why for cardio there is a factor that accounts for age. Anybody can get their heart rate very high quite quickly, that's why there are always deaths that result from shoveling snow. I picked box jumps, but burpees are even worse. I had trouble with them when I was 14.Originally Posted by "LisaS":3a7lujxd
Tony, it's a training program with a comprehensive warm-up protocol. You're doing about 20 minutes' worth of mobility and core exercises before you begin the power exercise.
That's very different from untrained individuals who wake up in the morning, throw on boots and a coat, go out and start doing strenuous exercise with no preparation at all.
I haven't researched this in a while, but the last time I looked, there were hardly any cases of people collapsing during strength workouts. There are certainly cases of strength workouts collapsing on people, like the ones who work out at home and drop a barbell on their trachea during a bench press, but heart attacks during strength training are pretty rare.
The part of strength training that's traditionally been considered dangerous is the breath holding during heavy squats and deadlifts. But the people who lift the most and need to hold their breath the longest (it creates intra-abdominal pressure that protects the spine) are also the ones with the most training, and thus the least susceptible to that kind of cardiac event.
I've never heard of a heart attack from jumping, but I'm sure there's at least one case study somewhere. It just seems highly improbable, given that it's not a continuous exertion that would chronically raise your blood pressure for minutes at a time. It's a short series of momentary exertions, which to the best of my knowledge have never been associated with cardiovascular risk.
As a lifter who just turned 63 I also was concerned about the effects of heavy exercise on my heart. I got myself checked out by a cardiologist and had a cardiac stress test. You get all wired up and they put you on a treadmill. They increase speed and grade quickly (a hell of a lot quicker than you ever would in a gym) and tell you to yell when you can't take anymore. MY heart rate was 165 when I gave up. Turned out it wasn't my lungs or chest pain that caused me to quit; it was my legs.
I have a RHR of 45 and wear a monitor in the gym just so I can keep my HR in the 125-135 range when lifting and drop down to 110 between sets. If I hit 140 I tend to back off because I know it isn't really doing me any good.
After the stress test I stopped worrying about my heart. Now I just worry about all of those little pulls and tweaks that I accumulate after some of the more horrendous NROL sets.
I should have added to my previous post that ... if you are concerned about your heart, get yourself checked out. Have a stress test and a ultrasound analysis to make sure all your valves are valving and arteries are pumping. If they find something out of wack they can probably fix it and if they don't that is one less thing to worry about.
David, why are you worried about a heart rate of 140 when it's only 85% of your max? I've read that race-car drivers compete for hours at a time with their heart rate averaging 90%.
I've never heard that a momentary spike to 85% of your MHR is dangerous for an otherwise healthy person.
I don't see a risk in having a HR >140 during a session but is there a real benefit in doing so?
I would appreciate your thoughts on the benefits of training at a HR that is 85-90% of max.
The greatest benefit (for me at least) of using a HR monitor is at the lower end of HR. When I see my HR drop below 115 between sets it motivates me to start the next set.
David, although it's not my area of expertise, I've never quite understood why people use a HR monitor during strength training.
You can use your breathing as a guide. When it returns to normal, it's time to start the next set. (We had a good discussion about rest intervals on this thread.)
I wrote an article about max-heart-rate training quite a few years ago, and I can't guarantee my memory is perfect or that the information still stands up. That said:
What I recall reporting back then is that a low MHR is one of several cardiovascular risk factors, along with low heart-rate variability (the non-uniformity of individual heartbeats, as measured by EKG; you don't want them all to be exactly the same) and a slow recovery from a maximum exertion.
A cardiologist told me it's not possible to increase your MHR with training. It is what it is. But it's very possible to lower your MHR by not training. That is, unless you use the upper range of your cardiovascular power, you lose it.
Same with your ability to recover. The longer it takes, the less fit you are.
That's why it's always made sense to me to push up toward your MHR and then let it drop down, as you do during all the workouts Alwyn writes these days. You're training two important cardiovascular qualities: maximum capacity, and recovery from a maximum effort.
I believe that if you train those qualities, your heart-rate variability should improve as well, or at least stay at a healthy level.
Thanks for the response Lou.
What I take from all this is that I should up the ante and work harder. I tend to pace myself by keeping my HR between 120 and 140 to have enough energy to get through the entire workout.
I am at the 8th workout for NROL Hypertrophy 1 so I think I'll push the intensity a bit for the remainder of Hyp 1 and see what comes of it.
This article really helped me with clients not have any unrealistic goals. You sound like you just want to be healthier and fiter in general; this usually applies more to weight lighting.
I am now getting convinced that age is just a number, just listen to your body and do your work outs accordingly.
Tony23, have you had any discussions with your doctor regarding your concerns about max heart rate? That might be a good place to start, as well as generally consulting with one before starting a fitness program.
Better to be safe than sorry, and they can examine/screen you to address your specific concerns.
I would also add that, if your doctor gives you the thumbs up, go for it. Using your body will help keep it young. I feel that we get "old" because sometimes we tell ourselves "I'm too old to try that" and it becomes self fullfilling. Our bodies can do a lot more work than we think they can.
I've discussed my concerns with my doctor. He just told me to start walking. Start with 5 minutes and add a minute a week. I'm up to 9 minutes. About weight lifting, he just said "don't use heavy weights" I've had a Holtor monitor test and though I have several arrhythimias, none are serious.Originally Posted by "Roark Haver":2g9v9vei
Have you considered working with a certified trainer or physical therapist? You may be able to find one that can write a program, and progressions, based on your specific needs/concerns.
BTW, if you are concerned about heavy weights, read an article by Alwyn Cosgrove called "Your Body is a Barbell". It is a body weight exercise program that gives a fantastic workout. Here is a link to one of the places you can find it.
Have you checked out Mahler's training log for some heavy inspiration? He lifts heavier than many half his age.Originally Posted by "tony23":200ditvg
And, for some female inspiration...Faith Ireland.
I've already had three bouts with PT's for back problems. Though you have a good idea about working with a PT, but since I have chronic fatigue syndrome it would be very difficult since I never know when I'm going to be too tired to exercise. With a PT, I'd have to schedule an appointment. I work out at a 24/7 place. I may give it a try though when the weather warms up. I'm no longer concerned about with lifting heavy weights with the info that Lou provided me. I'll still take a look at Cosgrove's book. Thanks for the reply.Originally Posted by "Roark Haver":27g1my1s

While I get the reason for doing box jumps, my knees, well, they don't like those. So, I do them on the bosu ball. Less impact.
When it comes to nutrition and weight loss and maintaining, and fitness, I have 2 loves!
Weight Watchers, works for me, it gives me freedom to make choices within the healthy guide lines that work for my body.
The New Rules books and workouts, also give me the flexibility to do the best I can, but if it hurts, don't do it.
I can honestly say, that after years, and years, I have found the balance, between good nutrition and exercise that works for me!

text: Date: Tue, 4 Jun 96 03:18 BST From: Ian Jackson <email@example.com> mt and rmt are distributed by the GNU people with cpio. cpio isn't large, and ought to be installed on almost any system (it's sometimes assumed to be present by things). Is it really that awful to have to install cpio to get mt and rmt ?? No, except that there are two conflicting mt's, and from perusing /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/README.st, it looks to me like the one that doesn't come with cpio (i.e., mt-st) is the better one to use. If mt gets bundled with cpio, users will have to choose between cpio and better mt. (The package descriptions for both mt's don't really hint at the difference between the two--I'm going to send a bug report on this...) --Mike

Margaret Hunt Hill's Heirs Are Still Fighting About Money, Making Judge Sad
Money is good, as this bridge and the heirs vaguely connected to it will tell you.
Dallas oil heiress/philanthropist/bridge-to-somewhere's namesake Margaret Hunt Hill died in 2007 at the age of 91. Shortly after, her grandson Al Hill III became sort-of famous for filing a lawsuit against his own father, his aunts and his siblings, as families tend to do when there is a multi-billion-dollar trust at stake. A detailed 2008 Vanity Fair article on the lawsuit reported on Hill III's many allegations against his own family — his relatives "have conspired to destroy two family trusts, sell off their largest holding, Hunt Petroleum, and 'steal for themselves the value of the trusts' assets ... When he himself balked at this plan, he alleges, he was subjected to a 'shameless campaign of non-disclosure, browbeating, threats, and dirty tricks.'"
That was seven years ago. In that time, we built the bridge bearing his grandmother's name, and Hill III was later indicted by former DA Craig Watkins over alleged mortgage fraud; the charges were later dropped by a judge, and Hill III is now accusing Watkins of selectively prosecuting him. Hill III and his relatives, meanwhile, continue to fight over the trust. The latest hearing about their money was last week, bringing a flock of legal and financial representatives into a federal court room in Dallas. The actual Hill family was not there. Keeping track of which suit was representing which person or firm asking for money (a previous law firm Hill III is accused of not paying was also there) could get confusing with everyone speaking in finance jargon. It was all very corporate and clinical, up until the judge presiding suddenly made the shocking decision to talk about the legal dispute in human terms.
"You know, I am from limited means. All this was new to me," Magistrate Judge Renee H. Toliver said at at the end of the hearing. "Even in families like mine where people don't have much, they get into disputes. But Mr. [Al] Hill III started this party. And I think it's just sad and shocking that a family would be torn apart over these kinds of issues."
Hill III does not appreciate her sentiments. "When I heard Magistrate Tolliver admit that she's deciding my case based on her personal feelings, I was stunned," Hill said through his media representative in an emailed statement. "Don't get me wrong — I understand how the amounts of money involved can turn people off. But I was cut off when I asked questions my family didn't like and when I reported the tax fraud. "

Hill III lives in Atlanta and was trying to appoint Deutsche Bank to be the new trustee of the portion of his trust he inherited — an amount of money originally estimated to be in the $100 million range. His family contested his choice of Deutsche Bank on the basis that the bank didn't make the list of 25 eligible trustees a previous judge stipulated Hill III would have to choose from. Hill III, whom another judge recently ruled owes his past attorneys $40 million for unpaid services, argued through his current attorney that finding a trustee from the list provided was difficult. "The more people fight against Mr. Hill III, the more people file things in here saying we are entitled to this stuff and you can't appoint this person, every time Mr. Hill, III goes to find a suitor, it is like going into a new marriage with baggage," said his attorney John Da Grosa Smith.
The attorney representing Hill III's father, Al Hill Jr., countered that Deutsche Bank's trust division has only $4.8 billion in assets — "nowhere close to the required size" of a bank necessary to manage all of Hill III's money. In the end, Judge Tolliver sided with Hill Jr. before telling all the suits in the room that it was "sad and shocking" that they were all still there, fighting over this. "I don't know whether Magistrate Tolliver came from limited means, but I do expect her to take a fair approach in viewing the facts and in applying the law," Hill III wrote after the ruling. His full statement is below:
When I heard Magistrate Tolliver admit that she's deciding my case based on her personal feelings, I was stunned.
Don't get me wrong — I understand how the amounts of money involved can turn people off. But I was cut off when I asked questions my family didn't like and when I reported the tax fraud.
At the time, I was just trying to be the kind of person who did the right thing, someone my children would look up to. I paid a high price for that. My grandmother had intended for me and my family to inherit a share of her trust fund, and my father has the power and money to prevent that from happening.
I don't know whether Magistrate Tolliver came from limited means, but I do expect her to take a fair approach in viewing the facts and in applying the law. Saying I "started" this ... just isn't true. I wasn't the first to file a lawsuit. I agree with her that seeing a family torn apart is sad and sometimes shocking. But I'm not the one responsible for my relative's misdeeds, and I had to defend myself and my family — and I've been proved right at every point. I don't know why Magistrate Tolliver sees my father as the victim. Someone might consider reminding her that Judge O'Connor found that my father committed perjury.
If she doubts that my focus is family, she's flat wrong. I wish I had a warm, loving family on my father's side, but that was just never the case. My family is my wife and our three children and I'm doing everything I can to protect and provide for them.

The first single, titled Feet Up, was released Aug. 6 and its accompanying animated video is lifting off on YouTube or at chrishadfield.ca.
An organization that represents firms in the Canadian space sector says the industry has not been a priority for the current government and it is hoping that will change after the Oct. 19 federal election.
A funnel cloud was spotted near Sea Island in Richmond between 5 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. on Thursday.
He's signed to Sony, has millions of hits on YouTube, garnered a gold-selling single and is now poised to begin a massive Canadian tour with the likes of Kelly Clarkson and Nick Jonas.

55-64 year old man treated with FUE Hair Transplant
Was this photo helpful? {{ voteCount + ' other' + (voteCountOthers == 1 ? '' : 's') }} found this helpful
This patient had three surgeries prior to coming to Dr. Patrick Mwamba. The hairline and frontal third had four to five-millimeter punch grafts resulting in an unsightly appearance. As years passed and subsequent hair loss occurred, the frontal scalp revealed obvious effects of the early plug procedure. The sheer volume of the plugs caused cobble-stoning and ridging on the frontal scalp. Repairing the hairline and removing plugs is a complex process that can require more than one session. Dr. Patrick Mwamba treated the patient by removing some of the plugs and transplanting approximately 2200 FUE/FIT grafts to improve naturalness and increase density. Rebuilt with naturally occurring follicular unit grafts, the hairline was slightly lowered, and the temple peaks were redefined with fine hair grafts to proportionately balance the face. The goal of the patient has been met. These are the 24-month results.
Keep in mind, the patient certainly reserves the option to return to our hair transplant clinic for additional plug removal at any future date.

Last week, in American college football, No. 1 ranked LSU faced No. 2 ranked Alabama in the NCAA Bowl Championship Series national title game. It was the first time two teams from the same conference squared off in the title game, and was hyped to be a great rematch between two tough teams. LSU hoped they could come out and prove they deserved their No. 1 ranking.
The outcome, though, was almost embarrassing: LSU only crossed the 50 yard line once and got shut out. They came out flat and lost the game with everything on the line.
So what does football have to do with PPC?
In PPC, I like to view the page fold as the 50 yard line, and the top ad positions as the red zone. In American football, a team is said to be in the red zone when they're 20 yards or closer to the opposing team's end zone. It means they're in scoring position.
In PPC, it's great to grab one of the premium positions above the search results – but you can still score (i.e. convert) even if you're in a side position.
But you won't win if you can't cross the 50.
So what keeps PPC advertisers from crossing the 50 yard line of search?
Playing Too Conservative With Bids
Many novice PPC advertisers want to "test the waters" to see if the channel will work for them. They set really low bids, often at the minimum of $0.10 per click.
While setting bids that low guarantees you won't spend much money, it also won't get you anywhere near the 50 yard line.
The reason has to do with a little thing called quality score. While several factors go into determining quality score, the one thing new advertisers need to focus on is click-through rate (CTR).
CTR is the most influential factor in the quality score algorithm, so it's vital to establish a good CTR right away. It's not much of a stretch to understand that if searchers can't see your ads, they're not going to click on then. Really low bids can ruin an advertiser's chances of getting clicks, just like running the ball up the middle can keep even the best running back from gaining yards.
A better strategy is to take some risk early on. While you should never bid more than you're comfortable paying, it's important to set bids high enough to cross the 50 in the early going. Once quality score is established, you can start to ratchet bids down.
Playing Too Conservative With Daily Budgets
Let's assume your bids are set at a decent level. Even with high bids, you can limit your production if you set daily budgets too low.
Low daily budgets are surprisingly common – some experienced PPC managers will set bids at $5 per click and campaign daily budgets at $10. Simple math tells you that you won't get many clicks that way – just like you'll never find out how good your wide receiver is if you only throw two passes to him in a game.
As with bids, you shouldn't set budget caps that you're uncomfortable with. But in the early days of a campaign, it's better to set the budgets high so you can assess the total traffic potential for the campaign.
I like to start with $500 or even $1,000 per day – and I watch it like a hawk so I'm prepared to pull things back if it actually spends that much! Doing things in reverse (i.e., starting low and then ratcheting up) isn't as effective. It takes longer to get the spend ramped up once you've set a low cap, so it's better to aim high.
Establish a Lead
In football, as with many sports, it's important to come out strong early in the game and establish a lead. Once you're a few touchdowns ahead, you can start to play the game more conservatively to preserve the lead, because it's very hard for opponents to come back and win.
In PPC, make sure you set bids and budgets at a level where you can cross the 50 as quickly as possible, and then adjust as needed to a level you're comfortable with. By establishing an early lead, who knows – you might even win a national title!

If you recently stopped by for my holiday home tour, I mentioned some new additions to the playroom that are bringing all of us some Christmas cheer. I love adding lots of whimsy to my children's playroom, especially at Christmastime. When I happened upon the Boy Meets Girl Reindeer Removable Christmas Wall Decal Set available from Wallternatives™, I knew it would be the perfect touch. This set is from their new Jennifer Rizzo Designer Wall Decal Collection. You all know by now how much I love Jennifer Rizzo, right? Seriously, she is mega talented.
When I first saw this set on the website, I knew that my children had to have them. Okay, maybe I was a teensy bit excited for them myself. At Christmas time, I am still just a kid inside.
There are some new reindeer in town.
Wallternatives™. As I get more rooms in our house finished, I will definitely be looking to add more to our home.
Jennifer Rizzo also has a line of stencils available from Royal Design Studio that look like so much fun. You can definitely get your holiday diy on with those!
I will share more from the playroom decorated for Christmas as time allows. It is crazy how busy this time of year can be, but I am enjoying all of the magical moments with my two little ones. I love to see the wonder and excitement in their eyes!
I hope this magical season is treating you well. Don't forget to sign up for the giveaway that I currently have going on if you haven't done so already!

On 9 May, the Parliamentary Group Poland-South Africa, held a meeting with His Excellency Mr. Lehlohonolo Shadrack Ted Pekane, Ambassador of the Republic of South Africa in Warsaw. The Group was established in March this year and aims to develop the parliamentary friendship between the parliaments of the two countries. The Group is chaired by AWEPA member Hon. Leszek Jastrzębski from the ruling party (Civic Platform), with 12 more members of the Sejm in the Group, mostly also AWEPA members. According to the tradition to build the special links by the parliamentarians, the Group Poland-RSA addressed the request to establish a similar group in the parliaments of RSA because the existence of such a counterpart group/equivalent could help strengthen the contacts by holding a set of meetings with the representatives of the Polish and RSA Parliaments.
The speakers overviewed the condition of the cooperation between Poland and RSA. Ambassador Pekane emphasized the impact of the position of RSA in the African Union and therefore on its policy in the entire region. He underlined how important is the stabilization in the neighbouring countries as RSA receives a growing number of emigration form Zimbabwe or Nigeria which has been estimated recently to reach 3 million people. Ambassador Pekane said that despite of resource development deals in RSA, the country needs most of all the investments not the exploitation and introduction the new technologies towards the innovating economy. The participants discussed the prospects of further development of the commercial contacts and the opportunities which will occur after the official visit of the Polish Prime Minister Mr. Donald Tusk to RSA scheduled for October this year. Polish entrepreneurs pay regularly study visits to RSA to develop the business opportunities and to attract the RSA investors to Poland. Additionally, Poland can give lessons on the development of the education sector basing on the Polish experience form the transition process when during the last 20 years the number of university degrees was doubled as a response to rapidly growing economy. The authorities of the two countries should find the financial resources or ask for the engagement the private companies to cover the costs of the studies at the Polish universities.
Both speakers Deputy Jastrzębski and Ambassador Pekane agreed to set regular contacts and build a platform for parliamentary contacts between the parliament of Poland and Republic of South Africa.

I think mostly it matters how you pull it off
Like I've seen tons of good looking people with piercings that look really tacky. But also these people don't think their other style choices out very well, don't wear clothes that fits them quite right, don't coordinate colors, etc
I've seen people who have piercings really really really pull it off. Not because they wear one style or another but because they think their style choices out really well. I've seen some people who dress with the nerdy style do piercings extremely well because they dress with a certain attitude and groom themselves carefully (guys and girls)
For example, I will say that the belly button is very common and I like the look of both pierced and not-pierced belly buttons on a girl so it doesn't matter. It has been overdone to some point, and sometimes it makes me go "ugh she did that". But you can tell who rocks it well and who just got one because they followed the crowd. Really, it's not the piercing itself that is attractive and by itself, sometimes they can be worse. You can have a piercing that isn't complemented by anything else in your look and it's not good because it makes you look as though you just followed the crowd (even if you didn't). But if you incorporate it into your style really well, the piercing rocks because it gives your appearance a lot of strength and attitude.
So do whatever you do, but don't concentrate on just the piercing. If you get one, make sure to go out and shop for some other new gear that'll complete the attitude it brings. That's what'll make the look hot more than anything else.00|00|0

Discussion in 'Long Range Shotgun Slug Hunting' started by Len Backus, May 11, 2009.
What Is The Range Of Your Longest Shotgun Slug Big Game Kill?
Hey Len, the poll will not allow votes....
Whoops, try again.
My personal best is 137 yards.
180yds with a Rem 870 12g scoped shooting Winchester 3" mag sabots. To be honest hitting her was pure luck and I don't think I could do it again.
155 Yds. State Park Deer Reduction hunt. Doe and yearling stop @ 30 Yds in some brush, and when they step out I shot the yearling instead of the doe first (they swapped places). The doe bugged out and I shot at her running @ about 60 Yds. and missed. When she stopped to look back, I ranged her and sent it. I aim for the high shoulder shot, and she dropped like a rock. When I got to her, the slug entered her neck right where it joins the head. ????? After I tagged both of them, I climbed back in the tree stand to wait for #3. Looking at where she fell, I noticed a small branch about 1/4" dia that was shot off about 8' out from the gun. Just lucky I guess! Tar-Hunt 12 ga., Hornady SST Slugs
My first deer was a doe when I was 12. Didn't know anything about ballistics or trajectory. It was a downhill shot and my gun was a single shot smooth barrel 12 gauge that had been given to me by my grandfather. The shot turned out to be 80 yards or so. I just aimed in front of the shoulder and the slope was just right for the trajectory to put the slug where I was aiming. I got that one, but missed 3 others that were with her as they ran away. I thought it was just like shooting a cow lol. I then proceeded to go maybe 15 years without getting another
Opps, I clicked on 51-100, then I remembered my 150 yard shot. I was all of 12 years old, it was my first year shotgun deer hunting. I had hunted deer a couple years before that with a muzzel stuffer with no luck. Managed to kill a nice branch once with the stuffer but no deer. So anyway I had managed to get my first deer early that morning. Shot a little button buck at about 40 yards. When I shot he turned and ran towards me. Dad told me keep shooting if its still on its feet, so when he went buy me at about 10 yards full steam ahead, I gave him another. He went down about 20 yards later. After Dad explained how to field dress him to me, we looked at the bullet holes. Both shots were right through the lungs! Wowho!!!
So later tha evening I was in a different stand in a fence row looking out over a big field. And this awsome buck came walking out of the timber. The wind was blowing from him towards me and so hard my tree was waving back and forth. I shot at him about 75 yards away, and he just walked away. Not knowing if I hit him or not I waited until he stopped and picked a point when my stand wasn't moving all over the place, and gave him another. That time he took of like a scalded dog! I marked the spot in the field, and when Dad got to me I instructed him over to where I shot the second time. He didn't believe me as it was approx 150-160 yards. But the blood told the story. We tracked that sucker well over a mile, and didn't find him until a couple weeks later, about 50 yards from where we quit.
It was completely luck, and a shot that I wouldn't take again, but at the time and being 12, I thought if I just wounded him with the first shot I better try again. Ended up I hit him perfectly up and down just back a little too far. The thing was a big 8 point with an extra sticker making him a 9, scored right at 150 which is a huge 8 point for me!
16 years later I still get excited shooting any deer, wether a doe little pocket buck or nice big boy! Got my second deer with my S&W 629 44 mag this year. I've opted out of carrying that shotgun and switched to the revolver kinda changes the game that way. Also killed a coyote with it free hand no rest at 50 yards! Oh what fun it is to play!
Zippity Zero. I have never been able to hit one.
I did the vote thing too and accidently hit the wrong button..
I shot a decent 8 point whitetail at a lasered 238 yds, nocked him down on the spot to which he then got up and took off running...we tracked him for about 400 yds and found him dead about 6 hrs later cause we let him set to not run him off.
I do not recommend shooting at this distance with a sluggun however.
I got lucky cause I have seen deer shot at shorter distances and get away.
210 yards using Hornady SST 2 3/4" sabot zeroed at 150 yards in my Mossberg with a rifled surpresser barrel and a Bushnell Red Dot. Held dot on top of spine inline with boiler room and WAHHLAAM. Took a nose dive then he got up and dropped 10 yards from were he was first hit. A direct hit taking out both lungs a part of the heart. At first sight I thought it was a good 6 pointer but turned out being a real tall fork horn. Ripped off! He never grew brough tines! 136 pounds dressed. Gotta love those SST's!
178 yrds. w/ 870 Wingmaster canterlever scope mt., and 3-9 Leopold ,Hornady SST's ,Nikon Rangefinder off an elevated ground blind. Held top of back 2" behind shoulder and hit4'' above belly directly behind frt. leg. 149" 10 pt. jumped and kicked in the air, ran in a 20 ft. circle and dropped.Wide open coal reclaimed ground. Painted a neat red circle.
135 yards shooting an 870 with a fully rifled barrel, 385 gr Win partition gold 2 3/4 in shells, topped off with a Nikon Monarch 1.5-4.5 x 20 scope. Very accurate combo. Sighted in 3 high at 100 it should hit 3 low at 200. Used to shoot a smooth-bore barrel on the 870 with original Brennekes. The longest kill was 119 paces. This was also a very accurate combo. I could lay them in a 6 in bull at a 100 yds with open sights.
Threw some lead out of the Ithaca 12 gauge pump w/slug barrel and iron sights as a teanager. Man did that featherlight kick! Might have been nice to have a recoil pad.
For some reason the deer were sparse in those days in southern Minnesota. Or maybe my deer chasing red bone/bluetick coon hound ran them off when we were coon hunting. He loved to chase anything that would run away from him. The faster they ran the better. (I diverge ...)
Got a nice 8 point on the run across the ravine one year. My dad and uncle were impressed.
That slug barrel worked great on grouse too as long as you didn't let them get too far away.
I really liked the bottom ejection of the Ithaca pump, thought that was real neat ...
Always wanted a centerfire rifle with a scope in those days, but we were in a shotgun only county. I did have a great time with the 22 mag though.

The 5 Scariest Things About Denny's
In the recent kerfluffle regarding Denny's new sandwich, the Fried Cheese Melt, we seem to have forgotten that it's far from the only reason to be afraid of the 24-hour restaurant chain. Allow us to remind you.
1. The Grand Slamwich It's understandable that people were so horrified at the thought of a cheese sandwich that had been fried twice, they allowed this one to slip under the radar like it was no big deal. We think it might actually be worse for you than the Fried Cheese Melt, however, because it's basically an entire goddamn Grand Slam Breakfast between two slices of bread. And not just any bread: potato bread, the most calorically-dense type of bread you can have before you simply start using pancakes. The Grand Slamwich contains two scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, ham, American cheese, and mayonnaise. That's right: sausage, bacon and ham. It's a side of chitlins away from containing an entire pig. And scrambled eggs, plus mayonnaise? Good God, man. How eggy is too eggy, Denny's? Not to worry, though: The Grand Slamwich also comes with a "maple spice" spread, so it turns out it's classy, after all.
2. No Locks Denny's had been a 24-hour chain for many years the first time the chain closed on Christmas Day, 1988. In fact, they'd been perpetually open for so long, many of the restaurants didn't even have locks, and many that did had lost the keys for those locks. Just think about what that means for a second. If some kind of horrible sewage accident were to occur (and you have to think that in all that time, there would have been at least one such accident at some Denny's, somewhere), what did they do? Did they close up shop until the problem was remedied? Or did they keep right on serving Super Birds while Excretor the Poop Monster slugged it out with Mario, Luigi, and the Ghostbusters? And what about when the zombies come? What happens then? Nope, we're just not comfortable in a place that can't shut down when it needs to.
3. The Racism Denny's was slapped with a class-action lawsuit by not just a few, but thousands of African-Americans who had been denied service, forced to wait while white people were seated, charged more for their food than white customers, or discriminated in some other way by Denny's restaurants all over the nation. Well, as regrettable as these instances are, such things were common not just in the Jim Crow South, but all over the nation before the Civil Rights Movement really gained power in the 1960s, and - wait, this happened in 1994? Holy shit, Denny's. That means this happened after key cultural figures like Martin Luther King Jr., Jesse Jackson, and MC Hammer had bridged many of the racial divides of yore. What was the thinking? "Fuck 'em, what are they gonna do?" You're familiar with the Montgomery, Alabama bus boycott, right? And really, was there anything stupider to do in the early '90s than discriminate against black people? Culturally, it was not a happy time for them, Denny's. True, it takes balls to overcharge black people while the actual Rodney King riots are going on outside, but not the good kind of balls. Still, after they were forced to pay out $54.4 million to the nation's minorities, Denny's did create a racial sensitivity training program for its employees, so we're sure everything is just fine now, and that kindly 75-year-old waitress isn't thinking fondly back to the days before she was forced to treat these darn brown people just like you treat ordinary decent white folks.Next Page

The Huayra BC is what many have been speculating to be the Huayra R. It features a an aggressive front splitter, a rather large fixed wing at the back which is complimented by a new rear diffuser.
Pagani is expected to use the same 6.0-litre twin-turbocharged engine from Mercedes-AMG that does duty on the Huayra, however, power and torque output levels haven't been given.
The Pagani Huayra BC was first revealed in a facebook post on Pagani's page on New Year's Eve.

The Country of Venezuela in one page.
Hello! My name is Drishya. I will tell you about the grand country of Venezuela. This country is a fascinating place to visit and the scenes are extremely beautiful and attractive, and I doubt that you will hate Venezuela.
Venezuela is located in northern South America, and the Caribbean Sea borders it. Its bordering countries are Brazil, Colombia, and Guyana. The Atlantic Ocean only partly borders it, but not fully.
The Weather There
Since Venezuela is located near the equator, it doesn't get too cold there. It is mostly hot and humid, and the winter's temperature only drops at least 5.7 degrees. Although, if your altitude gets higher, it gets colder. In conclusion, Venezuela's weather isn't very cold, and it is mostly hot, or warm.
The Landmarks and Awesome Sites
There are many sites and landmarks in Venezuela. They are very attractive and amazing!!
One of the amazing landmarks is Angel Falls. The waterfalls rise above the clouds and the view is amazing. Angel Falls, in fact, is the highest uninterrupted waterfall in the world. It has a height of 979 meters and a plunge of 807 meters. This water fall is located in the Canaima National Park. Angel Falls was discovered when a guy named Jimmy Angel crashed his plane in top of the Angel Falls. Take a picture of that, and watch how many likes you will earn in Facebook.
Another point of interest in Mochima National Park. The park has soothing beaches where you can relax. This park has many, many mountains. A beach named El Saco is perfect to go snorkeling. I doubt that anyone who visits this park would hate it.
Famous Museums, Festivals, and Events
There are many fiestas and events going on in Venezuela, and you cannot miss them! One is Aniversario del fundacion del Caracas, and it is celebrated in July 25. This festival is celebrated for the foundation of Caracas, the capital of Venezuela. Another one is very common, which is Navidad, which is Christmas. It is celebrated in December 25.
Major Cities and Rivers
Famous cities located in Venezuela are Maracay, Maracaibo, Valencia, and Barquisimeto. Some rivers are Orinoco River and Casiquiare River.

I am 18 and never had a bf and i really want one. I am good looking and a nice person. I want to find someone and give him love and make him smile, just that. I can't find anyone. I have been rejected because they said i was a good girl. It is just me. It doesn't happen, nothing. I remember the guy i liked last year, we were highschool seniors and he was looking at me a lot, he is very shy and turned away when i caught him but we never really talked but i would feel his eyes on me and my bff was looking at him and said he was indeed looking at me a lot. Nothing happened because we were studying very hard for university, without distractions. Somehow lately i can't get him out of my head at all. I know he wants a girlfriend but he hasn't found one. I happen to see him sometimes and i tremble, my heart beats and it hurts. I haven't said that to anyone. I say i hate him a lot and he makes me angry. I jusy need love and all i want is to give love and happiness. It hurts sooooo much. I dont know what to do. I feel so frustrated, in pain and dissapointed.

if you want something bad enough you have to make your own luck. You can't get what you want with your hands in you pockets. Find some courage and in the end you will be glad you did something as easy as say hello to the guy you like and start a conversation.
I believe in you.22|00|0
I have been rejected before by others and if i get rehected again i dont know if i can handle it.
That's just life, I've been rejected and I just laugh about it. It's nothing personal when you get rejected. rejections only hurt if you let them. The important thing is that you tried, fear of failure will always hold you back in life. NEVER BE AFRAID TO FAIL. You are a human the most incredible create in the universe and you can do anything if you are will to work at it.

Rahma Haruna was born a healthy girl, but then something happened. She had a mysterious illness that was noticed around the time that she was six months.
She didn't develop her limbs. That was 19 years ago and she's still here! Her family in Nigeria takes care of her, carrying her around in a bowl, and feeding/bathing her as needed.
Her condition often forces her to be in pain, but at least she has her family to help relieve her when needed.
THE SUN – The illness, which has prevent her arms and legs from developing, has left the 19-year-old limbless.
Her mum, Fadi, from Kano, Nigeria, explained: "From six months when she learnt how to sit that was when it began. She didn't learn how to crawl.
"She started with a fever and that was it. Then stomach pains. Then her body parts like hands and legs."
What a tragic story! Can you imagine all the things you take for granted on a daily basis? Think about what you're doing right now, then imagine not being able to do it on your own.
This woman LIVES IN A BOWL that you would eat salad or wash your car from. She has to rely on everyone for everything. She literally can't do anything for herself but think. And I know thinking is a hard thing for the rest of us, but maybe we should try it sometime. It won't hurt for us to be more open minded and use our brains a bit better.
Sometimes we complain when an elevator is out, but can you imagine what it would feel like if this woman could walk up steps for the first time? She has not ever felt that.
She's also black, so whenever Black Lives Matter wants to help her family to give this woman an easier life, then that would be great.

Travel is one of the most uplifting experiences you can enjoy in life. Sure, it's not always an affordable endeavor, but going out there in the world often proves to be more fulfilling than buying material things.
Travel is essentially a form education, except that it doesn't happen within the 4 walls of a classroom. If you want to widen the scope of your understanding of the world, one of the best ways to do this is to immerse yourself in foreign environments.
Realizing this at a young age is truly eye-opening. Here are the reasons why:
1. You'll get to know more about your own country
Young people often begin their wanderlust life by exploring their country of origin. It is often a great place to start, considering how disparate communities can be even in very small countries. When you travel to other places in your own country, you'll become exposed to other people's way of life—the issues they face on a daily basis and how they deal with these issues in their own way.
2. You'll see what life is like in other countries
As you begin to explore other countries, you'll also begin to see what people are like in those places. Every destination is an opportunity for you to learn about the nice things found in those places that you can also bring home to your own country. This can be ideas, values, and many other things.
3. You'll be able to distinguish between luxuries and necessities
This is especially true after you've been to poorer communities. If, before, you think that you need new clothes, modern gadgets, and lots of money to be able to live a great life, you'll begin to understand that, at the most basic level, you actually only need a few things to make you happy. Friendship, companionship, and experiences take the center stage instead.
4. You'll realize that it's not all about you
When you go to other places, you will learn that much of what you thought were the most important things in the world are actually trivial matters for other people. For example, people living hundreds or thousands of kilometers away from your hometown are likely not to care about the battles being waged by your city's politicians. It's a humbling experience to know that there are places out there whose worlds revolve around other matters, and certainly not around the ones going on inside your home, on your street, in your city, or even in your country.
5. You'll learn about yourself more
Finally, you might think that you already know yourself very well, but the truth of the matter is that there is still so much to learn about you! And you won't really experience this unless you get to go out of your comfort zone and realize what you are capable of. Going out there to experience new things is one of the best ways you can get to know yourself better.
Being a traveler is a way of life that can really make a positive impact on you as a person. We hope that we were able to inspire you to take to the road, book a cheap hotel in the Philippines for a start, and begin meeting new friends who also love to travel!

As asked - Does this look okay? Honestly - for school.
I don't have a lot of clothes - Actually I have a few basic tops, one cardigan, a few plaid shirts, two pairs of black pants, that skirt - and I only have these shoes at the moment.
Most Helpful Girl
Put on the flannel and tuck it into the skirt but tug on the edges so they poof a little over the edge but are still tucked in. OR if you really need to wear nirvana, remove the flannel but still pull all but the bottom of the shirt out so it poofs over the edge of your skirt00|00|0

Virtually the entire top leadership of the Taliban has survived the American bombing and eluded capture by American-backed Afghan forces, according to United States officials and people close to the Taliban.
Many of the Taliban's senior leaders have melted back into their home tribes, joined the opposition or crossed the border into Pakistan, the officials said.
The highest-ranking Taliban official believed to have been killed in the bombing campaign is Mullah Abdul Jalil, who served as deputy foreign minister. American officials and those close to the Taliban said Mr. Jalil was believed to have been killed in an early United States bombing raid in the Kabul area.
Many of the officials who once formed a tight inner circle around the Taliban's leader, Mullah Muhammad Omar, have split away from him, some probably because they no longer felt safe in his company.
Some now say they sharply disagreed with his decision not to hand over Osama bin Laden to the United States after the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on Sept. 11, according to one person close to several Taliban leaders. He said he had spoken with some of them in recent days.Continue reading the main story
Among those who is said to have broken with Mr. Omar is Wakil Ahmed Mutawakil, who was the Taliban's foreign minister. Those close to the Taliban who say he is still alive would not disclose whether he was still in Afghanistan or had fled to Pakistan.
Others who have survived the American bombing campaign and battles with anti-Taliban Afghans include Obaidullah Akham, who was the Taliban's defense minister, and Amir Khan Muttaqui, who served as minister of information and culture and later as education minister.
Mr. Akham, who is believed to be in Afghanistan, is considered by American intelligence officials to have been one of the Taliban leaders closest to Mr. bin Laden.
Mullah Omar fled Kandahar on the day the city fell earlier this month, said a person close to several Taliban leaders. ''He is isolated now, and there are very few people with him,'' he added. American intelligence officials say they believe that Mullah Omar is still in the region around Kandahar, but that they do not know exactly where.
Individuals who provided information on the fate of Taliban leaders on the promise of anonymity said they did not know what had happened to Mr. bin Laden or other leaders of Al Qaeda.
In addition to Mr. bin Laden and other Al Qaeda leaders, Mullah Omar and other top Taliban leaders have been among America's most wanted men since the war in Afghanistan began.
While the United States has for the most part allowed Afghan opposition forces to deal with rank-and-file Taliban soldiers they have captured, American Special Forces and Central Intelligence Agency officers have combed through the prisoner camps looking for leaders of the Taliban and Al Qaeda who could be transferred to United States custody, with little success.
Many of the Taliban leaders have been able to return to their native tribes after the collapse of their government. Some are believed to have made deals with the anti-Taliban armies.
Abdul Wahab, who had served as chargé d'affaires in Saudi Arabia until the Taliban's embassy there was closed, has joined the Eastern Shura, according to the person close to many remaining Taliban leaders.
''Very little of the Taliban leadership was killed,'' the person said. ''Most have melted away. Others just switched over.''
''There was not a lot of willingness to fight on behalf of the Arabs,'' he added, a reference to Al Qaeda members from Arab nations.
American officials agreed, and said they had little evidence of any significant casualties among senior Taliban leaders.
Mr. Akham, the defense minister, was one of four Taliban leaders who negotiated the handover of Kandahar to opposition forces, the person close to the Taliban leaders said. Tayeb Agha, who was Mullah Omar's spokesman, was also involved in the negotiations. They were both allowed to leave Kandahar as part of the settlement and are now at large, the person said.
Some of the hard-liners on what was the Taliban's Supreme Council, the ruling body around Mullah Omar, including Ahmad Turabi and Noor Muhammad Saqib, have made their way into Pakistan and remain free, the person added.
Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld and other American officials said today that hundreds of people fleeing Afghanistan, perhaps a mixture of Al Qaeda and Taliban members, had been captured by Pakistan and that the United States might seek to take custody of some of them. But there is no sign that any of them were senior Taliban leaders.
In fact, few leaders of either the Taliban or Al Qaeda have been killed or captured. Three senior Al Qaeda officials, including Muhammad Atef, the terrorist network's chief of military operations, are believed to have been killed in American bombing raids.
Abdul Aziz, a Saudi with the Wafa Humanitarian Organization, a Saudi group that American officials describe as a front for Al Qaeda, has been identified by the United States as the highest ranking Al Qaeda official to have been captured and taken into American custody.
Mr. bin Laden and two top deputies, Ayman al-Zawahiri and Abu Zubaydah, have not been found. American officials say they may be dead or may have crossed into Pakistan.
But it has clearly been far easier for the former Taliban leaders to melt back into Afghan society than for the Arab fighters who went to Afghanistan to join Al Qaeda.
The Taliban had always been a coalition of Pashtun tribes, and it now appears that one of the reasons the American campaign was so successful so quickly is that the military pressure quickly broke that coalition. Tribal leaders forged new deals.
The person close to several Taliban leaders added that apart from a hard-core group around Mullah Omar, few after Sept. 11 wanted to die for Mr. bin Laden. That ultimately led to a decisive rift within the Taliban leadership, he said.Continue reading the main story

MOSCOW (Reuters) - A Russian villager discovered a stockpile of Kalashnikov assault rifles hidden in the wooden crates he bought for $15 from a stranger to use as fuel for his winter stove.
A total of 79 guns and 253 cartridges were stuffed in more than 60 wooden boxes bought by a resident of the village of Sovkhozny in Udmurtia, a region some 1,300 km South-East of Moscow, Interfax news agency reported on Friday.
The 57-year old local resident said he bought them from a random truck driver for 500 roubles ($15.81) to heat his home.
The fully functional rifles, produced in 1959-1960, were on their way to a recycling plant from Izhmash, one of the country's oldest arms manufacturing plants, the company said, when they wound up in the man's possession.
Russia's Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin, appointed last December by President Dmitry Medvedev to oversee the country's defense industry, said he will launch a probe into the mysterious appearance of automatic rifles.
"Wow! I will hold a meeting with Izhmash about its firearms next week and we will deal with this miracle," he wrote on his Facebook page www.facebook.com/dmitry.rogozin.
A deadly mixture of corner cutting and negligence continues to plague Russia's defense industry 20 years after the fall of the Soviet Union, with Russia still the world's second-largest arms exporter.
"I imagine how scared the West is of our nuclear arms," a Facebook user Oleg Zabara wrote in a comment on Rogozin's post. "Not because they exist, but because they could accidentally fall on them (by mistake), just like those rifles got to that old man."
It was not immediately clear if the driver was aware that he was carrying firearms in the boxes he rushed to cash in on, but investigators said a probe will look into the incident.

Architect: A. E. Doyle/designed by Frank Higgins, 1926
More than any other architect, A. E. Doyle
(1877-1928) left a lasting legacy in Portland. For two decades, his firm got the commissions for seemingly every important downtown building. Doyle's usual style is characterized as Classical Revival, and can be readily seen in buildings like the Multnomah Central Library. This makes the Terminal Sales Building unusual. It has a design considered modern for its era, making it one of Portland's few examples of a perpendicular Art Deco style. The eye follows the smooth, vertical concrete piers straight up for twelve stories, without any ornamentation on the way to spoil the ride. It's a handsome building, and given its lineage, a unique one as well.

It was said that within its chambers she was at her most powerful. Inside the building resided a number of soldiers from the Evil Horde to serve her. Within the Hall, she could cast spells such as summon hordes of Shadow Beasties to attack the Great Rebellion.
However, her latest onslaught was thwarted by the intervention of Man-At-Arms and Orko when they made use of a energy shield technology given to help their Etherian allies. An enraged Shadow Weaver later appeared at the battle at Thaymor Village where after being insulted by Orko she decided to steal the Trollans shadow. She took the shadow to Horror Hall in order to take the power inherent within it for herself. As a result, She-Ra and her allies stormed Horror Hall where they defeated the Horde and reclaimed Orko's shadow whereupon they escaped.
