WASHINGTON, Jan. 9, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Prostate cancer continues to be the most common cancer in men, accounting for about 1 in 4 new cases, according to data recently published in CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians. The estimated number of new cases and estimated deaths from prostate cancer both decreased slightly for 2014, by 3 percent and 1 percent, respectively.

"Every week I talk with at least one family man in his 40s who has prostate cancer," ZERO's CEO Jamie Bearse said. "Men are dying. Families are suffering. We need to stand together and make fighting prostate cancer a national priority in order to see a real change in the number of lives being saved from the disease."
Prostate cancer continues to be the second most deadly cancer in men, accounting for 10 percent of estimated new cancer deaths in 2014. The report estimates that 233,000 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer this year, and 29,480 will die from the disease.
ZERO is leading the fight to end prostate cancer and is supporting men and families through our programs and initiatives, including:
- The ZERO Prostate Cancer Drive, which provided free early detection to more than 4,000 at-risk men in 2013
- The ZERO Prostate Cancer Run/Walk, Endurance and Golf series, which raised more than $2.5 million in 2013 to educate and support men and their families
- More than 2,300 men with advanced prostate cancer benefitted from patient co-pay assistance and educational materials provided by ZERO in the past year
- The ZERO Prostate Cancer Summit, where more than 150 advocates gathered in Washington, DC to educate their elected officials on the importance of research funding for prostate cancer and discuss advocacy efforts to take home to their local communities
- A new, comprehensive website to educate men and families about prostate cancer, and an advocacy microsite to help build an army of prostate cancer advocates across the nation.

Companies are harnessing data in ways we once associated with science fiction. Analysts have access to a plethora of visualization and reporting tools, but considering the vast amount of data businesses collect and limitations of CPUs, end users are forced to design their structures and systems with limitations. Until now. As the cloud toolkit to analyze data has evolved, GPUs have stepped in to massively parallel SQL, visualization and machine learning.

Information about Castleton State biological sciences, and registering for discussion sections. Which college degrees give you the best chances of finding employment after graduation? Nursing is one of the fastest-growing job areas, and for good reason. As the population ages, medical care will continue to expand rapidly. Concentrating on Castleton State biological sciences, for example, you may gain an advantage in job recruiting on-campus. Check with the biology department for course registration deadlines, and life science program requirements. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Castleton State.
Biology is one of the original natural sciences, even reaching back as far as the study of anatomy in ancient Egypt, where evidence has been found of surgery, forensics, and anatomical knowledge of both organ structure and function. Biology in general is the study of life and living organisms, with specific attention to function, growth, evolution, identification and taxonomy. Modern biology is becoming an interdisciplinary field, overlapping with biomedical engineering, molecular chemistry, and genetics. The biological sciences recognize the cell as the basic unit of life, and DNA as the basic unit of heredity. Moreover, all organisms survive by consuming and transforming energy via respiration or photosynthesis, and by regulating their internal environment via homeostasis.
The life sciences are defined by the scale at which organisms are studied, in that biochemistry focuses on chemical processes of life while molecular biology involves molecules and protein synthesis. Cellular biology may be broken down further into a structural analysis of cell organelles and lipid membrane boundries, such as in skin tissue or alveolar sacs in the lungs. In the field of genetic engineering, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) may be spliced together from different organisms, in an attempt to transfer hereditary traits that may increase crop yields, create a supply of stem-cells, or even clone sheep. Beyond major requirements within the biology department, you may consider Suny Adirondack Community College practical nursing as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.

From your motherboard manual pg 2-11
Attachment 236168
Try selecting 'Normal' and see if it will show your the current voltage setting.
The manual link was so you could download it if you don't already have it, you will need it for reference when we make settings adjustments.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Last crash:
STOP 0x00000050: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA Usual causes: Defective hardware (particularly memory - but not just RAM), Faulty system service, Antivirus, Device driver, NTFS corruption, BIOS Probably caused by : memory_corruption ( nt!MiEmptyPageAccessLog+dc ) IMAGE_NAME: memory_corruption FAILURE_BUCKET_ID: X64_0x50_nt!MiEmptyPageAccessLog+dc
This has resolved many crashes like the ones you are having, with the requested info we can proceed.
According to your CPUZ snips, your RAM is in 'Single' channel mode, it should be in 'Dual' channel mode. This will give you more performance from the RAM.
This is due to the RAM cards being installed in the wrong motherboard slots.
Look in your motherboard manual pg 1-11.
You need to have one RAM card in channel A and one RAM card in channel B.
Make sure both RAM cards are in the Orange slots.

I switched my ram to be side by side in orange and it wouldnt post. It powered up but no beep occurred not did my screen turn on. It was on and the hdd light would flicker off and on at a steady pace. Switched them back to a1 a2 to boot again.
I noticed my manual mentions 1600 ram and using the black dlots tried that. It powered on but no beep hdd lights up once then then never again.
I have 2-11 and i see it in the bios but its not the same the manual says their are options for cpu voltave cor example as auto, manual +50 +100. In the bios i have ita on auto and the only way to change it is keypads + and - the first time i hit plus it goes to 1.15000 next time it goes to 1.15625 it continues with that size increase for a long time. Vddnb is the same situation but different numbers 0.80000 the. 0.80625 and so on.

That is indicating a problem with your IMC (Integrated Memory Controller) which is part of your CPU.
Don't set your RAM to 1600MHz, this is a known AMD issue, you can try it later after you get the system stable.
Try them in the black slots with the RAM set at 1333MHZ to verify.
What setting did you change to get the RAM to 1600?
We might be able to get it working with the setting adjustments requested above.
Does you BIOS page look like this:
Attachment 236193
Set your VDDNB Over Voltage to 1.20v
Set your DRAM Frequency to 1333MHz
Set your Memory Over voltage to 1.60v
Leave the CPU Over Voltage on 'Auto' for now.
Exit & Save Changes.
Put the RAM in the orange slots, if it won't boot, put them back in A1 & A2, check if it will boot.
|My System Specs

I changed the dram frequency to 1600 to get it to 1600. And yeah thats what my bios looks like. I will change those setting shortly and let you know.

Ok with those voltage and timing settings ram in black slots i booted up fine. Also i had to go over or unet the 1.6 setiing i went with 1.605 i hope thats ok/safe.
Guess i spoke too soon. Double bsod after windows boots while loading my start up programs the first one mentioned usb second i didnt see bsod screen just crash and rebooted on its own.
Switched ram to orange slots to see if im more or less stable then the black ones.
Edit: added pic of cpuz after memory was moved to orange and with volt and 1333 dram setting so far more stable then when I tried the black slots.
|My System Specs
|12 Oct 2012
a Lock up this time screen went black had to reset manually. While ram was in orange slots.
|My System Specs
|13 Oct 2012
Good news that it booted with the RAM in orange/black slots, hopefully this means the CPU IMC is not faulty.
The RAM voltage is fine if slightly higher.
The CPUZ snip information looks good.
Let's bump the same voltages again.
Set your VDDNB Over Voltage to 1.250v
Set your Memory Over voltage to 1.65v (slightly above is ok)
Leave the DRAM Frequency at 1333MHz and the RAM cards in the orange slots.
Exit & Save Changes.
Test for stability.

In Sheriff of Nottingham, players will not only be able to experience Nottingham as a merchant of the city, but each turn one player will step into the shoes of the Sheriff himself. Players declare goods they wish to bring into the city, goods that are secretly stored in their burlap sack. The Sheriff must then determine who gets into the city with their goods, who gets inspected, and who may have their goods confiscated!
Do you have what it takes to be seen as an honest merchant? Will you make a deal with the Sheriff to let you in? Or will you persuade the Sheriff to target another player while you quietly slip by the gate? Declare your goods, negotiate deals, and be on the lookout for the Sheriff of Nottingham!
In our latest video review, Richard dresses up as the wrong Sheriff, Andy names some chickens, and the two of them mostly agree as to whether or not you should play the game!

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- As many 'new media' outlets seem to retain an essence of the 'new norm,' former editor-in-chief for Excellence and Porsche Panorama magazines, Pete Stout, has created another approach to providing Porsche enthusiasts with more of what they're after while offering a physical touch point to be cherished and displayed for years to come.
Experience the interactive Multimedia News Release here: https://www.multivu.com/players/English/7948751-000-magazine-launches-exclusive
"When it comes to a premium media experience, print is unsurpassed," says Stout. As a high-class collectible quarterly that utilizes all the best resources, photography, inside perspectives, and luxurious materials, the all-new 000 Magazine will be a luxury lifestyle publication unique in its sphere. Stout says the magazine's name—spoken as 'Triple Zero'—is a reference to three-digit Porsche model numerology and a promise to explore the marque from its origins forward.
"This is the magazine I've always wanted to make," explains Stout. "It's a hefty book of a magazine with more than 200 pages in every issue, all thoroughly researched, carefully curated and beautifully presented. Our in-depth feature stories can run 20 to 40 pages—or more—and are complemented by unexpected, thought-provoking departments."
Extremely limited advertising will keep a firm emphasis on independent editorial content, and a lot of it. Behind-the-scenes experiences will be drawn from expert writers and Porsche connoisseurs such as Randy Leffingwell, Jeff Zwart, Patrick Long, Kerry Morse, Alexander Palevsky, Helmut Werb, and many more. "We've also sent the best photographers into unusual locations," says Stout. "Think Jeff Zwart in the urban renewal of Hamburg, Camden Thrasher hunting a 911R in the redwoods, and Linhbergh Nguyen shooting an ex-Le Mans 924 Carrera GTP in Chinatown and L.A. Live…at night."
000 Magazine is focused on value rather than price, and is built to be a keepsake in and of itself. The magazine is sized 9x12 and rendered on extra-thick interior paper. Its card-thick, 'suede-finish' cover features an embossed and foiled logo. 000 won't be sold on newsstands, nor will back issues be available—an approach expected to leave tastemakers wanting even more.
The $250 annual subscription, which is available at 000magazine.com/subscribe, buys four soft-cover issues with more than 200 pages each, delivered in protective mailers. For customers seeking even greater exclusivity, a 'Subscription S' limited to 999 subscribers worldwide is offered at $999. While the interior pages remain the same, each hardcover Subscription S edition will carry a uniquely individualized subscription number. An exclusive Subscription S slipcase made from premium materials will arrive in time for Christmas each year, and Stout says there are longer term plans for Subscription S customers.
Issue 000
The first issue, with anticipated arrival for Christmas 2016, will not be issue number one. While new magazines commonly create a prototype issue for internal use, Stout planned 'Issue 000' as a limited-run pre-series of sorts that could be shared with friends and early subscribers. As is only appropriate for a prototype issue, its subject matter is Porsche prototypes.
"It seemed fitting to make Issue 000 about prototypes and 'idea' cars, which allowed us to work out our visual and editorial concepts while considering every era of Porsche," explains Stout. "So we planned a feature story on 1939's Type 64—the real root of the 356 concept as well as the 'Porsche face'—followed by in-depth articles on the best of the surviving 911R prototypes, the pair of eight-cylinder 914s built by the factory, the 924 Carrera GTPs that went to Le Mans in 1980, the one-off Carrera 3.2 Club Sport prototype, the pivotal 1993 Boxster Concept car, and more than 1,000 miles in a pre-series 918 Spyder along the northern coast of California."
Stout and his business partner, longtime writer/editor Alexander Palevsky, traveled to Germany not once but twice for the first issue. "We went to Hamburg, and spent two weeks in Stuttgart looking for cars, archival photos, original documents, and stories we've never seen," reveals Stout. "We returned with camera crews and spent more time digging into stories I've seen in the past but wanted to know more about—a lot more. What followed was one surreal experience after the next."
Dieter Landenberger, head of the Porsche Archive, introduced the duo to Hans Clausecker, the man who built both eight-cylinder 914s. "At 75, he walked up to the silver 914S built for Ferry Porsche and laid down on concrete to take a peek under it—he hadn't seen either car in 46 years," recalls Stout. "One night later, we were sitting on barstools in Ludwigsburg, eating Thai food with designer Grant Larson. He had a set of old Polaroids from the buildup of the Boxster Concept, and was giving them to Jens Torner at the archive. One showed a guy taking a chainsaw to the clay."
"If there was one thing that became apparent while we were in Germany, it's that we are just getting started," says Stout.

How did the Acts church worship God? Do church worship services today look anything like it? Are there any similarities or would the Acts apostles wonder what "church worship services" today are if they see them? The Acts church was solely dependent on the leading of the Holy Spirit. Not churches today. They are helpless without … Continue reading Two Kinds of Worships: Acts Church and Modern Church Worships

It is the witness of the Word-made-flesh (God's Word filling your flesh) that matters to God most of all. How the Word-made-flesh remains Godly and Kingdomly out there while under pressure by the world is the real ministry. It is how the Kingdom of God is built on earth---NOT denominational "church planting."

ATTENTION L.A. VOTERS!!! -- DO NOT BASE YOUR VOTE ON PANCAKE BREAKFASTS & BBQs. VOTE OUT HERB WESSON AND YOU WILL HAVE MORE MONEY TO BUY YOUR OWN DAMN PANCAKES!!! (You eat a dollar stack of pancakes, and Wesson votes "yes" on all new fees and rate hikes that the mayor sends his way.)
Thank you for taking the time to inform and educate yourself, this election season. It's still pretty early in the campaign cycle, but it IS time to raise awareness, NOW, that there IS an L.A. City Council election in your district on Tuesday, March 8, 2011. If you saw the commercial on TV, that means the election is for YOUR AREA!
First thing you need to know is: Current L.A. City Councilmember Herb Wesson needs to be replaced. (MUST be replaced.) There are many reasons that will unfold on this blog between now and March 8, 2011. But primarily, Herb Wesson is Housing Chair. And Zuma Dogg has a HUGE issue with the L.A. Housing Department and the L.A. Housing POLICY under Chairman Herb Wesson. Secondly, he considers Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa to be his, "best friend who just happens to be mayor." Herb Wesson & Antonio Villaraiogsa go WAY BACK to ASSembly days, together -- and Wesson REMAINS Villaraigosa's CLOSEST ally/partner in crime, since Antonio has become mayor. (If Villar needs something TO GET DONE at Council, WESSON is his go to guy.)
MORE COMING...but for now, please get to know Althea Shaw & Austin Dragon. Two grass-root/community candidates running against Mr. Wesson worthy of your consideration. One of these two MUST become the next councilmember of CD 10. PLEASE GET OUT THE WORD IN THE COMMUNITY THAT THERE IS A VERY IMPORTANT ELECTION HAVING DIRECT CONSEQUENCES AND IMPACT ON YOUR DISTRICT MORE THAN ANY OTHER ELECTION IN RECENT HISTORY. And tell them to vote for ANYONE but Herb Wesson. And let them use this campaign season to decide between Austin or Althea.

FRANKFURT, Oct 22 (Reuters) - German real estate group LEG is considering an initial public offering of shares in the coming months that could value the company at close to 5 billion euros ($6.54 billion), two people familiar with the situation told Reuters on Monday.
"Depending on the market climate, the second quarter of 2013 is certainly doable," one source said, adding that banks would be selected for a stock exchange listing by the end of this year.
Another said that an IPO first required a deal on refinancing the company's debt.
LEG owned roughly 90,000 residential apartments at the end of last year, which were valued at about 4.7 billion euros. The number of apartments in its portfolio make it larger than listed peer Deutsche Wohnen.
German competitor Deutsche Annington also is looking to float on the stock market, a banker familiar with the sector said: "This could speed up the process - whoever is first has a clear advantage."
Both LEG and its owner Goldman Sachs declined to comment.

This invention relates to a seat and cover assembly for a toilet bowl and, more particularly, to such an assembly that insures that the seat member is kept clean during all positions of it and the cover member.
It has long been recognized, especially in industrial and commercial applications, to provide a seat for a toilet bowl with a biasing means, such as a spring, to automatically raise the seat during periods of non-use to prevent soiling of the seat when the toilet is used by a male in the standing position. However, in domestic environments in which a cover is almost universally provided for the toilet seat, practical problems arise in connection with this type of arrangement. For example, it is impossible to place the seat and the cover in their lowered positions during periods of non-use, which is a significant disadvantage from an aesthetic standpoint. Also, if the seat is biased to its upright position with a spring force sufficient to also bias the cover upwardly, it becomes difficult to separte the seat from the cover when it is desired to use the seat in its lowered position. In other arrangements utilizing a spring-loaded seat, the bias is set only to bias the seat with a sufficient force so that it will stay in its upright position nonwithstanding the fact that the cover may be covered with a relatively thick fabric material. However, in these arrangements the bias is insufficient to move the seat upwardly when the seat is in its lowered position.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a seat and cover assembly for a toilet bowl in which the seat, after being used in its lowered position, will be biased to its upright position.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide an assembly of the above type in which the seat and cover are biased together in both their upright and lowered positions.
It is a still further object of the present invention to provide an assembly of the above type in which the cover is latched relative to the toilet bowl in its upright position to facilitate separation of the seat and cover.
It is a still further object of the present invention to provide an assembly of the above type in which the seat and the cover can be placed in their normal lowered position during periods of non-use.
Toward the fulfillment of these and other objects, the seat assembly of the present invention includes a seat member and a cover member pivotally mounted relative to the toilet bowl for movement between an upright position and a lowered position. Spring means are provided for biasing the seat member and the cover member into an abutting relationship in all positions of the two members and means are provided for quick-releasably securing the cover member in its upright position.
FIG. 1 is a front elevational view of a toilet bowl arrangement incorporating the seat and cover assembly of the present invention and showing the latter assembly in its closed position;
FIG. 2 is a view similar to FIG. 1 but depicting the seat and cover assembly of the present invention in its upright position;
FIG. 3 is a view similar to FIG. 1 but depicting an operable position of the seat and cover assembly of the present invention;
FIG. 4 is an enlarged, perspective, exploded view of the seat and cover assembly of the present invention;
FIG. 5 is an enlarged top plan view, partially in section, of the seat and cover assembly of FIG. 4; and
FIG. 6 is an enlarged, partial, front-elevational view of a portion of the seat and cover assembly of FIG. 4.
Referring specifically to FIG. 1 of the drawings, the reference numeral 10 refers in general to a toilet bowl of a conventional design having a water reservoir 12 mounted thereon. The seat and cover assembly of the present invention is shown in general by the reference numeral 14 and is affixed to an upper surface of the toilet bowl 10 in a manner to be described later, and is movable between the lowered inoperative position shown in FIG. 1, the upright position for use by a male in the standing position shown in FIG. 2, and an operative position for use in the sitting position shown in FIG. 3.
Referring specifically to FIG. 4, which depicts the details of the seat and cover assembly of the present invention, the reference numeral 16 refers to a seat member of a general annular configuration having two mounting flanges 18a and 18b formed integrally with the rear portion thereof. A cover member 20 is provided which extends over the seat member 16 in the lowered, or inoperative, position of the assembly and has two mounting flanges 22a and 22b extending integrally from its rear portion.
A mounting fixture 24 is provided which includes a pair of mounting posts 26 extending from the lower surface thereof which extend through corresponding standard openings formed in the toilet bowl 10 for fastening the fixture relative to the bowl in a conventional manner. The fixture 24 is shaped in a manner to define a pair of ramps 28a and 28b which are appropriately recessed to receive a pair of magnets 30a and 30b, respectively for reasons to be described in detail later. The fixture 24 also includes a forward extension block 32 which has a pair of semi-circular grooves 34 formed therein for reasons to be described in detail later. The extension block 32 cooperates with a separate, similarly shaped, block 36 also having two semi-circular grooves 38 formed therein which, together with the grooves 34, define two circular bores. The block 36 is mounted underneath the extension block 32 by a plurality of threaded bolts 40 which engage with appropriately formed threaded inserts (not shown) formed in the extension 32.
A pair of hinge pins 42a and 42b are provided which extend within the bores formed by the grooves 34 and 38. The hinge pins 42a and 42b have extensions 44a and 44b, respectively, of a slightly smaller diameter which project from the later grooves and receive torsion springs 48a and 48b, respectively. As better shown in FIG. 5, the mounting flanges 18a and 18b of the seat member 16 have circular openings formed therein which respectively align with similarly formed circular openings formed in the mounting flanges 22a and 22b of the cover member 20 which together receive the extensions 44a and 44b. The torsion springs 48a and 48b extend around their respective extensions 44a and 44b and include bent free end portions which engage in corresponding notches formed in the flanges 18a, 18b, 22a and 22b, and extending coextensive with the respective openings formed in the flanges. As a result, the springs 48a and 48b apply an oppositely-directed torque to continuously bias the seat member 16 and the cover member 20 together in all positions of the members.
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, a pair of magnetic keepers 50a and 50b are formed in the back surface of the flanges 22a and 22b of the cover member 20 which magnetically engage with the magnets 30a and 30b formed on the ramps 28a and 28b, respectively of the fixture 24. This magnetic attraction between the magnets 30a and 30b and the keepers 50a and 50b, respectively, is such that the cover member 20 is latched in its upright position, but is easily unlatched when the cover member is moved toward its closed, or horizontal, position.
In view of the foregoing, it can be appreciated that the torsion springs 48a and 48b constantly urge the seat member 16 and the cover member 20 together in an abutting relationship in all positions of the two members. Also, the magnets 30a and 30b and the keepers 50a and 50b maintain the cover member 20 in its upright position, yet enable the latter member to be quick-releasably detached by simply pulling it away to release the magnetic attraction between the magnets and the keepers.
In operation, the seat and cover assembly 14 of the present invention is normally maintained in the normal closed, horizontal position as shown in FIG. 1. For use by a male in a standing position the assembly 14 is moved to the upright position of FIG. 2, whereby the cover member 20 is latched relative to the fixture 24 and the cover member and the seat member 16 and are biased to their abutting relationship by the action of the springs 48a and 48b. When used in the sitting position of FIG. 3, the user simply manually separates the seat member 16 from the cover member 20 with a force sufficient to overcome the spring tension of the springs 48a and 48b. The seat member is lowered to the horizontal position shown while the cover member is placed in its upright latched position. As soon as the user rises from the sitting position, the seat member 16 will move under the force of the springs 48c and 48b to its upright position in an abutting relationship with the upright cover member 20. Of course, the members 16 and 20 can then be moved to their lowered horizontal position shown in FIG. 1, by the user simply lowering the members 16 and 20 thus releasing the magnetic force between the magnets 30a and 30b and the keepers 50a and 50b, respectively.
It is thus seen that the seat and cover assembly of the present invention insures that there will be no soiling of the seat member during the standing position of a male since it is impossible for the seat member to rest in its lowered horizontal position while the cover member 20 is in its upright position unless the user is in the sitting position shown in FIG. 3.
A latitude of modification, change and substitution is intended in the foregoing disclosure and in some instances some features of the invention will be employed without a corresponding use of other features. Accordingly, it is appropriate that the appended claims be construed broadly and in a manner consistent with the spirit and scope of the invention therein.

I just got an adjustable gas system and was done with it.
But I think everyone else knew the difference between feeding and chambering, except the OP. Since there were magazine change reccomendations and short stroking.... But no one paid attention to the ghost round being ejected.

I like the idea of adjustable gas systems, but I don't like the set screw type, and clamp on would be OK if you use a metal set under and locktite the screws well.
Buffer replacement is just easier to do.

Black River Tactical makes a nice gas block that come with different sized bushings to adjust your gas flow. Set it and forget it. No screws to worry about backing out or anything. Decent price too.

Ok guys and gals, I have done the necessary testing.
I used a Spikes mid-length upper and a Knights Armament mid-length upper in my testing. I put the uppers on my lower and everything functioned perfectly. I put my YHM upper on both Spikes and KAC lowers and failed on both.
I interchanged the buffers just to be thorough but there was no difference.
Here's a weird issue that popped up. I pulled the BCG out of the other 2 uppers and tried to put them in my YHM upper and they would not go in...but the BCG from my YHM upper would fit fine into the other 2 uppers. All 3 BCGs are the standard M-16 style and look identical. I had several people try to do this and everyone is stumped. Weird.
So...looks like it's something in my upper. Probably under-gassed or something.
On a frustrating note, the shop from NC who sold me the upper at the gun show in VA will not return my calls or emails.
So, I may have to take it to a local shop here in Northern VA to have it looked at.
By the way, yes, failure to feed. Bolt pulled back, release, fire, extract, and then catches the next round on the side of the casing before it can fully feed.
Any other suggestions?
Sorry I am not fully up on the lingo and if it caused confusion. I do appreciate that TFL has some smart (and patient) people on here. Thank you.

Latest in the saga.
I took the upper to my friend's house the other night. He's a certified AR-15 gunsmith. We did some investigation on the whole rifle just to make sure everything (including my lower) was perfect and aligned and it looks like the gas block wasn't seated over the hole. Measurements showed that the gas block was misaligned by .050 and only 1/4 of the hole in the barrel was centered with the hole for the gas block, and that was probably limiting the amount of gas being pushed through the gas tube. We reseated the gas block .050 closer (yes, that's point zero five on his digital caliper) to the end of the barrel.
He has no explanation for the previously discussed issue regarding my friends' BCGs not fitting. He took several BCGs from his stash and all fit perfectly. Just weird. Oh well, no biggie on that.
I will be testing this weekend to check functionality.
On a side note, the gun shop owner emailed me last night to apologize for the delay and offered to replace the upper at no charge. Makes me feel at least a little better about reliability/accountability of the store.

When I first read the OP, I thought, hey don't shoot brass after steel without cleaning in between. Then I read that it's more of a gas problem.
Well hope you get it fixed.

A blocked gas port on a lower-than-carbine pressured upper? That'll do it for sure. Even an adjustable gas block won't save you if it's not on there properly
I've been following this thread intently as well, since I've just built my first build, which consists of a rifle length gas system on a carbine-based lower. CTS hit the nail on the head - I've done a considerable amount of perusing on the net, and there seems to be a significant misconception about buffer weights and the purpose of adding mass to the system and when it is (and isn't) appropriate. Thanks for posting this, pturner- but now you've got me all worried about how mine will do

The lower works perfectly with other uppers so it isn't an issue with the lower.
The gas tube is the proper length and isn't blocked; we checked that first.
Tested the AR this weekend. It functioned ok (not as smooth as my last AR) using 5.56...but same issue (FTF) using brass .223. Something I didn't think about was that the 5.56 used was in a different PMAG than the .223 so I will have to next try swapping out different PMAGS with ammunition.
The front gas block is the YHM-9394...looks to be pretty standard for the AR
If my next tests don't come up with any answers, I'm sending the complete upper back to be replaced

If it wasn't lined up with the port, then I can see why you had a problem.
If 5.56 worked, but just barely, then I could see it causing an issue with lower pressure 223.
As far as my upper problem... I put in an H2 buffer and it lessened but didn't eliminate the problem. Talked to customer support and working on getting a replacement. The ball is rolling, just need to send them a copy of the receipt.

I think you have a tight cut chamber (probably under spec) or your gas tube is misaligned. If the bolt locks back on the last (or only) round and it's going back far enough to strip a round I severely doubt it's a gas/buffer issue. Check your bcg and gas tube for dents, notches, etc that would show misalignment. Will brass rounds chamber if you release the bolt over a loaded mag after shooting steel?
Again, we run into some lingo issues. A BCG is a Bolt Carrier Group. The actual bolt fits INTO the BCG. So did the BCG not fit, or did the bolt(s) not fit into the chamber?
Either way I think your chamber is out of spec. From the information you've given that seems the most likely culprit. Can you push brass rounds in your chamber? They should slide in easily with no pressure or even fall in with the upper vertical.
Might just be a sloppy chamber. If it's unlined and not nitrided you could try the 870 chamber trick, but since it's giving you issues, I'd take the store's offer and trade it out.

It's on the tight side of spec, but not too tight, measured by comparing unfired factory rounds to fired casings using a cartridge headspace gage. My other rifle has a SS barrel with a slightly tighter chamber. Maybe one thou, maybe one and a half, very little expapansion in fired brass. I checked the gas tube for alignment to my gas key to ensure no abnormal wear. The bolt locks up without undo force.
Its PSA's CHF barrel from FN... I would hope they made a barrel properly, but things happen I guess.
Everything seems to chamber well. From cheap steel through cheap brass plinking loads to higher end stuff.
I am using a Nickel boron bolt... But I don't see that affecting it much as far as timing.

Gas tube is aligned...BCG slides over it just fine in the chamber...and now the gas block is aligned correctly over the hole in the barrel
Will brass rounds chamber if you release the bolt over a loaded mag after shooting steel? yes
Can you push brass rounds in your chamber? They should slide in easily with no pressure or even fall in with the upper vertical. Answer is yes, they slide in easily.
So did the BCG not fit, or did the bolt(s) not fit into the chamber? My friends' Spikes and KAC BCGs from my original post did not fit. But that seems to be an error on my part because my gunsmith friend put his Spikes BCG in and it fit fine.
Will be testing in the next few evenings different rounds loaded into different PMAGs.
Gas block properly aligned over the hole in the barrel. Gas tube is clean and aligns with the BCG. Buffer is standard buffer (not the ST-T2/3 that I had before).
Where things currently stand: pull back the handle...insert loaded PMAG...release...fire AR...ejects just fine...but next round gets caught semi-sideways by the BCG and doesn't get chambered

Wee! Two of us... Hard to keep track.
I did consider a tight chamber as the cause to my issue as well.
Seems you have given your upper the best chance at functioning that you can. So hopefully the testing will go well. If it works well this time, you may be able to run the heavier buffer just as well. Might feel better with the added weight I the buffer slowing down recoil a bit. But if not, full functioning with how you have it set up now will be good to go as well.

Here's a couple of questions to verify:
1. Does it always lock back on the last round using 5.56 ammo only?
2. Do the problems happen on 223 ammo?
3. How much lube do you have on the BCG, and how many total round count on the rifle now?
4. Have you tried duplicating the issue with another BCG like the Spikes?
Try this again and see if you can isolate the issue:
1. Use only factory loaded 5.56NATO ammo for each test.
2. Use a new magazine preferably a Pmag or any mag that is known to be reliable.
3. Do the one-round in the mag test for at least 10x to see if it locks back every time.
4. Then load 2rounds in the mag and see if it still works or does not feed on 5.56 ammo. If you get FTF's, then you are definitely shortstroking from the upper.
5. Check that the gas block and gas tube is tight and not working itself loose.
My only other thoughts is that it could be your BCG. What exactly is the BCG and what brand??

Issue resolved. It was the gas block. I will do a thread on the rifle with a pic.

Also, don't try to take possession of someone else's balls, and keep your club in your bag when not in use...
Obviously you know your golf. What is your handicap, other than mother-in-law, etc?

I was out hiking with a friend the other day. A friend who I know is careful with her money. But I learned something new about her.
She spends 10 months of the year, the cooler months that she doesn't like very much, saving money. During the two months of summer that she adores she doesn't worry about money. She indulges herself.
It's a bit of a game for her. She plays by the rules for 10 months in order to gain enough points (money) for a prize – two months without money stress.
Games are activities with restrictions or obstacles that make them hard but that much more sweet to win. Ask a long-distance runner. Do they love the run or do they love the finish line.
Of course games are not the only way to save. Read 12 Ways to Save Money for Travel. But adding the elements of a game may make the saving a little more fun. So how can we make saving money a game rather than a chore? Here are a few options.
Games to Help You Save Money for Travel
You can only spend a dollar once so how do you want to spend it? On travel? Then you can't spend it elsewhere. Yes you have to live. And yes, you have to enjoy life. But you are likely leaking money. Use these games to keep you on your goal of saving money for travel.
For the modest saver.
Keep the change challenge. This is especially great for people in the service industry getting cash tips but it can be good for just about anyone. When change is received whether in tips or cash back from a purchase, it's not to be spent. At the end of the day tuck it away in a jar or anything considered out of bounds. Watch it accumulate. Check the total after a month, divide it by the number of days in the month and you should get a sense of your potential daily savings. If it meets your travel needs, great. If not, you may need to add another game to your saving system. (This is great for most countries as they have coins worth $1 and $2. Americans may want to tuck away all $1 bills as well.)
Add-it-up challenge. The concept is simple. Ease into saving by increasing what you save every week. Week 1, save $1. Week 2, save $2. And so on. In week 52 you'll have to save $52 but your total savings will be $1378.00. Not bad.
Do the add-it-up backwards. It you think you're going to need more money at your disposal as you get closer to your travel goal, do this challenge backwards. Start at $52 on the first week and move down to $1. That way, towards the end you'll have more money available for the small items you'll need for your trip.
Alternating weeks challenge. Can you live just on what you need and no more for a week? Do you need a coffee or do you want a coffee? Do you need to hop a taxi or Uber or can you walk those 12 blocks? Live every other week spending only on what you absolutely need to stay alive. The weeks in between live normally. See what you save. And who knows, this may motivate you to alter your lifestyle every week and increase your savings more.
For the aggressive saver
The double-up challenge. Can you do it? Save a dollar in the first month, double it the next month and then continue month after month. It sounds easy but it's not. The monthly savings goes as follows: $1, $2, $4, $8, $16, $32, $64, $128, $256, $512, $1,024, $2,048. Yikes, save $2,048 in one month? With a total savings is $4095.00 you may be tempted to try. But with this game you'll likely need some help. Here are a few ways to make the Double-up Challenge possible during tough months at the end:
- Plan for future months. You may want to run a Keep the Change game right from the start. A jar of cash will come in handy when you're supposed to save $2,048 in the last month.
- Sell stuff: we all have extra stuff hanging around. Look for the money in your stuff at the beginning so that you have it sold and ready to add to your savings in the tougher months.
- Go into survivor mode. You may want to add the Alternating Weeks game in the last couple of months to find more cash.
I'm sure many of you have other games you play to make saving money easier. Please add them in the comments.

Nowadays, patients have high expectations when it comes to minimization of postoperative scarring after dermatologic surgical procedures. When an annular lesion is being excised, normal skin should be excised, as well, to prevent a dog ears resulting in a long scar. We introduce a new flap reducing the scar length in annular defects. In order to avoid a long scar, we designed a quadruple fan flap (O-X flap) that is a variation of the rotation flap. It consists of four rotation flaps arranged like fans, with open and closed configuration. We suggest that the quadruple fan flap (O-X flap) is a viable option for treating annular skin defects, because it shortens the scar line, preserves normal tissue, and provides a cosmetically favorable outcome.
