stubbed your toe? All the time.
ate a pickle? 2nd grade. It was my favorite food and we had favorite food show and tell. Afterwards we got to eat what we brought. I ate half of mine and then put it away in my backpack. It just so happened that the next day was winter break and my backpack went in my closet. Two weeks later, I pulled the pickle out of my backpack. I have not ate a pickle since then.
wore a hat? A few weeks ago when I went hiking.
got dresses up? A few weeks ago at my sister's wedding
made a fool of yourself? (please explain!!!) Today. I used my car key to get something unstuck. Without realizing it I had bent my key in the process. At lunch I went to leave work and my key would not fit in the ignition. It took me a few minutes to figure out why. When I did, I had to go back into work and figure out a way to bend it back.

A-G Won't Indict MK Zuabi for Sailing in Gaza Flotilla
When Israeli naval commandos boarded the flotilla's lead vessel, the Mavi Marmara to enforce Israel's naval blockade of Gaza, they were attacked by the passengers.
Attorney General Yehuda Weinstein on Thursday closed an investigation into MK Hanin Zuabi (Balad ) and other Israeli participants in last year's Turkish-sponsored flotilla to the Gaza Strip, after no evidence was found that any of them were involved in attacks on Israel Defense Forces soldiers.
When Israeli naval commandos boarded the flotilla's lead vessel, the Mavi Marmara, on May 31, 2010 to enforce Israel's naval blockade of Gaza, they were attacked by the passengers. The ensuing clashes left nine passengers dead and seven IDF soldiers wounded.
Police immediately opened an investigation, but stopped questioning the foreign nationals on the vessel early on at the request of the diplomatic-security cabinet. Instead, the foreigners were deported.
But the investigation of the Israeli passengers, of whom Zuabi was the most prominent, remained open until Thursday, when Weinstein, after studying the findings, decided to close the case.
In addition to the lack of evidence that they had participated in the violence, another reason for his decision was doubt over whether Israel had the authority to press charges against the suspects, since the alleged violations were committed outside of Israel's territorial waters. Moreover, while Israelis are legally forbidden to enter Gaza, it would be difficult to prove they actually planned to do so. The fact that potential witnesses had long since been deported from Israel also contributed to the decision.
As a result of Zuabi's involvement, the Knesset House Committee temporarily suspended some of her privileges as an MK. Interior Minister Eli Yishai also asked the attorney general for permission to rescind her citizenship, but this was denied.
Zuabi said on Thursday that Weinstein's decision did not surprise her.
"I insisted throughout this whole thing that my participation in the flotilla was legal, political and totally legitimate," she said, adding that she felt it was a moral, human obligation even more than a political obligation.
She said she had gone through a difficult period as a target of incitement and delegitimization, and "I think there's room for an apology from those MKs who incited against me." While she didn't actually expect any apologies, she added, she hoped the MKs in question would do some soul-searching.
MK Ofir Akunis (Likud ), who heads the Likud party's response team, said, "The decision to close the case against MK Hanin Zuabi and [Islamic Movement leader] Ra'ad Salah, who were actively involved in the terror attack against IDF soldiers, is scandalous. As I noted from the Knesset podium, as Likud's representative on the Elections Committee for the 19th Knesset, I will work to disqualify Zuabi from running for the next Knesset. She has no place in the Israeli Knesset."
MK Yoel Hasson (Kadima ) was not pleased, either. "The attorney general, with his decision, has given a green light to grave acts like those committed by MK Zuabi and [other] Arab elected officials."
MK Anastasia Michaeli (Yisrael Beiteinu ) said Zuabi "is doing her work as a destroyer of Israel faithfully, so I don't have any complaints against her. But [Weinstein's] decision gives a tailwind and a medal of honor to terror, in Israel and worldwide."

I want to try this but that makes me a little nervous, also it seems like the seams might be pretty bulky. I want to try quilt as you go but I don't want to hand stitch the back or add sashing so this seemed like a good alternative. Thanks!

As the writer/director of a movie you know you've done something grossly wrong when your audience would rather spend time with your villains than with your heroes. Such is the case with Stanley Tong's China Strike Force, a Hong Kong production with an international cast that purports to take place in Mainland China, but this is highly dubious considering the situations and plot of the film.
China Strike Force stars Aaron Kwok (2000 A.D.) as Darren Tong, one half of a cop duo along with buddy Alex (Lee-hom Wang) on the Mainland Chinese police force. (Mainland China, for those of you who don't know, is what is referred to as the People's Republic of China, or "those Communist Chinese" for those of you lacking in geographical knowledge. Re: they are not the same as the Chinese who resides in Hong Kong.) The duo is put on the case of Tony Lau (Mark Dacascos), the nephew of Uncle Ma, a Chinese kingpin who refuses to go along with Tony's ambitious plans to bring drugs into China.
Unfortunately for Uncle Ma, Tony has already struck a deal with South Central drug dealer and all-around pimp daddy Coolio, played by American rapper Coolio. (Gee, I wonder where they got his character name?). Can Coolio and Tony flood the Chinese Mainland with drugs or can our dynamic cop duo stop them first? And who is that sexy Japanese woman in the tight silver number?
First and foremost, Coolio is a riot. Not only is he exaggerating every little bit of his rapper persona in this role, but the man is having a ball. It's easy to tell from his moves and adlibs that he knows he's in a movie where he's supposed to be the "big bad American" and he relishes every scene and owns every scene. Some may think his "act" is annoying, but I found it to be somewhat endearing and hilarious.
In fact, the movie's most interesting sequences are centered around Dacascos' Tony and Coolio's, well, Coolio discussing the pros and cons of China, the Chinese people, and a purple-colored pimp Cadillac. (I kid you not on that last part.) On the other hand, the film fails to generate any excitement whenever we shift back to Darren and Alex's boring life and their love problems — Alex has one in the form of Ruby, the daaughter of the local prefecture's Sheriff (there's "Sheriffs" in China? I guess so.), while Darren has no love life to speak off, at least until the mysterious Norika falls into his jail cell.
The storyline is — well, the little of it said, the better. As mentioned, Coolio and Tony are trying to flood China with drugs and the two cops, along with Sheriff Lin (Ruby's dead) has to stop them. There's also a subplot about Norika's mysterious Japanese woman, played by Norika Fujiwara, who proves once again that China Strike Force's writers Stanley Tong and Stuart Whitney really did as little work as possible when picking out original character names for their international cast. I'm somewhat surprised Mark Dacascos' character isn't "Mark." (Sarcasm firmly in place here.)
Norika is obviously more than she seems, and the Japanese actress does her best to look both sexy and mysterious, and actually achieves both. Unfortunately her command of English is not up to par and her every line delivery (she only speaks English in the movie) sounds as if she's spent the previous night learning her lines phonetically. Mind you I congratulate her for at least being understandable, but her line deliveries, because of her poor grasp of English, comes out flat and with all the wrong intonations. Still, her character is one of the movie's highlights alongside Coolio.
The rest of the acting in China Strike Force is average. Kwok and Alex play the tough cops without much flair or enthusiasm, although both are obviously very athletic men and can handle all of the movie's stunts. Although there were way too many usages of wireworks for my taste. The movie is very down-to-Earth (if you ignore Coolio's over-the-top performance) and the obvious wireworks ruined a lot of the movie's fight scenes. The opening sequence, where Kwok and Alex infiltrate a warehouse to save a hostage, is a good example. Wires aid almost every scene in that sequence, and some quite unnecessarily. It seems to be wirework for wirework's sake, and that's not good.
Of course none of the above takes away from the fact that director Stanley Tong spent a lot of money and time choreographing the movie's fights, car chases, and helicopter stunts. Although towards the end of the movie there is a sequence on top of a sheet of glass hanging from a skyscraper that goes on for way too long, and because of the difficulties inherent in such a dangerous stunt, the "action" comes across as flat and very fake. Tong should have realized the sequence would not look "right" on the screen and move onto something less…high up.
China Strike Force is notable for its casting of Coolio as himself, and the rapper certainly lives up to the billing. Tong and the movie's producers must have realized early on that the movie's highlights involved Coolio and Dacascos (Crying Freeman). How else can you explain the fact that Coolio and Dacascos are onscreen more times than the movie's heroes?

CAST: Aaron Kwok …. Darren Tong
Norika Fujiwara …. Norika
Coolio …. Coolio

text: Dear Haskellers, I have tried to compile from my own work and from several sources a course in functional and logic programming, and the result is a prospect of a book (right now only in *Spanish*), which I have named "Programación declarativa". Perhaps someone can be interested in giving it a look. The book is big (more than 400pp and 2Mb) and eclectic in declarative topics (ranging from Scheme to Prolog), but Haskell has an ample treatment. Some parts of the book are even unfinished, but I think the book may be valuable for some people wishing to learn declarative programming through functional programming and Prolog. The book can be downloaded from: http://sites.google.com/site/writingsmhg/haskell/SpanishDeclarativeProgramming.pdf?attredirects=0&d=1 Corrections and suggestions are welcome.

text: Hello TT Readers, I was watching some French open today and the Tennis Channel did a special about racquet/string technology and was wondering what others thought on the matter. Navratilova thought thought that the strings should be banned and Mcenroe and Christopher Clarey (NY Times tennis writer) thought that making the sweet spot smaller (i.e. reducing the legal head size) would also help the game. They believed that tennis was heading in the direction of less skill and more based on pure physicality. They also all agreed that with the current technology, construction of points is becoming less important because players can just flick winners from seemingly impossible locations on the court. I am not so sure i'd like to see a rule change as much as I would like to see a tournament where players are only allowed to use a certain racquet head size or ban poly string or something like that. I would like to see how certain players perform without their extremely powerful racquets/extra spinny strings and see the outcome. This whole coversation started because the commentators were talking about how golf banned the use of long putters and anchoring to the stomach while putting. I think its interesting golf can change and I am curious if tennis might take steps to do the same for game modifications. Thoughts? Here is the link to the conversation... http://www.tennischannel.com/video/...dcode=FrczN5Yjr3rDzmUrLj9qBNi8RMAuVG2e&lid=2& Thanks!

One of the more sought after junior quarterbacks in Pennsylvania will be J.J. Cosentino of Pittsburgh (Pa.) Central Catholic. A number of top programs have come through the halls to check on Cosentino, and last week Florida State became the first one to offer.
"Recruiting is heating up right now," said Cosentino. "I have the offer from Florida State, and coaches from Penn State, Florida State, Temple, Michigan State, Pitt, Akron, Miami-Ohio and Bowling Green have all been in to see me. I have also been talking with N.C. State, Virginia and South Florida, and I've been getting mail from a bunch, including Tennessee."
Cosentino, 6-foot-5 and 220 pounds, shared his thoughts on his offer from Florida State.
Article Continues Below
"It was really exciting," he said. "They are a good fit for my skills and they are one of the top teams in the country. It was great to get to know Coach Fisher and Coach Sunseri better. They really seemed to like me as a player."
There are a couple other schools that may be close to offering Cosentino.
"I would say Penn State and Michigan State," he said. "I am going to Penn State on February 23rd for Junior Day and Michigan State invited me, but the dates did not work. We have a pretty good relationship though. I have already been there a couple of times."
No other visits are planned at this time, but Cosentino did take visits to Penn State, Michigan State, Virginia, South Florida, Rutgers and N.C. State for games during the fall.
Cosentino is currently playing basketball and also working out with his quarterback coach. He also confirmed that he will be attending the Rivals Camp Series presented by Under Armour on Sunday, April 28th in Pittsburgh.
"I thought I did well at the U.S. Army All-American Combine, so I like the challenge," said Cosentino. "I want to see how I compare."
During the fall, Cosentino helped Central Catholic to a winning season.
"We were a young team, starting mostly sophomores and juniors on both sides of the ball. We finished 8-3, and should do really well next year," said Cosentino. "We are a very run-oriented team so my attempts were about 10-12 per game. I feel like my short game got a lot better. I have always had a strong arm and been able to throw deep."

SBD/8/Leagues Governing BodiesPrint All
Some CFL owners want the Shreveport Pirates to move out of LA and into a larger market in the U.S. One CFL owner said, "Let's get realistic about Shreveport. Shreveport is a bush- league city that no one has ever heard of or cares to visit, and we've discovered that in (the Pirates') first season of operation that they do nothing to enhance the CFL's image." There has been pressure on the Glieberman family to move their team into a larger market, but they "have no intention" of moving out of Shreveport. In Baltimore, the most successful CFL franchise, club officials are angered by the lack of help from the league office. Baltimore VP Tom Matte: "The league, and I've got to word this carefully, doesn't help. They don't do anything. ... If they want to make franchises a success, you have to have guidelines for game-day operations and everything. They do have some guidelines, but they're so general it's crap. Total crap" (Marty York, Toronto GLOBE & MAIL, 11/8).
Joel Bernstein, a Manhattan attorney, has been retained by a group of season-ticket holders to launch a class-action suit against MLB. The action alleges "unjust enrichment" and fraud on the part of the owners and seeks $183M in damages. Bernstein has "process-servers spread out across the nation," serving notices to owners and MLB officials. Bernstein: "The owners are only offering refunds or credits on 20 unplayed games. But they have earned $15 million in interest on the advance payments for those games that were not played. This is what the law calls unjust enrichment. ... If they were selling season tickets while knowing the season probably wouldn't be played out, you could say that was fraud (N.Y. POST, 11/8). BASEBALL MEETING: "Where do we go from here? That was the "principal question" Monday when execs of the 28 clubs opened a 3-day meeting in Phoenix, according to the CHICAGO TRIBUNE's Jerome Holtzman. "No. 1 on the agenda" for the owners: "How do we sign the 595 players not under contract for 1995?" The main problem for the teams is to determine what revenue estimates can be used to pay players in '95 (CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 11/8). One team, the Royals, is likely to trim its payroll from $42M to "just more than" $30M. Right now they have five players which take up $20M, so the team may trade a high-price talent to get to the $30M level (Dick Kaegel, K.C. STAR, 11/8). Baseball's traditional Winter Meeting of all GMs will be held next week in Scottsdale. NEW TALKS: Labor talks are set to resume next week in Rye, NY. Mediator Bill Usery has proposed "going round the clock until at least Sunday" ("Sports Tonight," CNN, 11/7).
The NHL and the NHLPA resumed negotiations in New York yesterday for approximately seven hours. During the talks, the two sides reportedly agreed to temporarily halt discussing levies on club payrolls, "their greatest source of disagreement." Joining NHLPA Exec Dir Bob Goodenow and NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman were two players, NHLPA President Mike Gartner and NHLPA VP Ken Baumgartner, and two execs, Flyers GM Bobby Clarke and Devils GM Lou Lamoriello. The two sides agreed to meet again on Thursday, probably in Toronto (Helene Elliott, L.A. TIMES, 11/8). OWNERS SOFTENING? Under pressure from club owners, the NHL "appears to be softening its stance" toward the NHLPA. A source independent of both sides in the dispute contended that league officials are considering allowing the season to start while they continue bargaining with the union, a course they have twice before rejected (L.A. TIMES, 11/8). NHLPA HAS "DROP-DEAD" DATE: A source close to Goodenow told the N.Y. POST that the players will not agree to play anything less than a 50-game season to begin no later than the weekend of January 7-8. Working back three weeks -- to provide for a re- training camp -- that would place the NHLPA's "drop-dead" date for an agreement at approximately December 16 (Larry Brooks, N.Y. POST, 11/8). IHL ON THE RISE: According to the latest figures released by the IHL, league attendance has increased by nearly 2,000 fans per game from this point last season. The league also reports that nearly one-third of all IHL games have been played in front of crowds in excess of 10,000 people. Chicago Wolves Exec VP Wayne Messmer conceded that the increase in interest can be attributed in part to the NHL lockout. But Messmer insisted that is only a small part of the reason for increased IHL interest: "We came up with our marketing plan well in advance of the NHL work stoppage" (Terry Armour, CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 11/8).

Airdrie natives gunning for a third straight AJHL title
Thursday, Mar 06, 2014 11:13 am
As the Alberta Junior Hockey League�s (AJHL) Brooks Bandits look to win a third straight league title and a second consecutive Royal Bank Cup as the best Junior A hockey team in Canada, Airdrie natives Anthony Paskaruk and Maddison Smiley are determined to help their teammates accomplish their goals.
�I think we have the team here that can win it all once again,� Smiley said. �If we just stick to our game-plan and listen to what our coaches want us to do, we can do it.�
�We�ve had our ups and our downs like any team does, but we are really starting to find our identity as a team,� Paskaruk added. �You are always going to have the target on your back when you have success, but that�s something that we don�t mind having to deal with.�
The Bandits were the top team in the AJHL�s South Division this year with a 39-13-8 record, and have earned a bye into the second round of the playoffs, which will get underway at a yet to be determined date in the middle of March.
�It�s nice to have that bye for a couple of reasons,� Bandits Head Coach Ryan Papaioannou said. �For one thing you get a chance to prepare for whoever you end up playing in the playoffs, and you can also let the guys rest up any battle scars they have.�
�There is so much parity in this league that you have to bring your best effort out every night,� he added. �There have been some nights where we could have done better, but we now have a chance to show how good we can be here in the playoffs.�
Two of the leaders for the Bandits have been the two 20 year olds from Airdrie, who make an impact on the ice in different ways.
Paskaruk, the team�s captain, had another strong campaign in his fourth season for the Bandits, as the speedy centreman has scored 10 goals and put up 29 assists in 53 games.
�I think my season has gone pretty well,� Paskaruk said.
�I�ve had a strong couple of months here to finish the year off, and I think things have been pretty successful.�
�Along with that, to be the named captain this year by the coaching staff was a pretty amazing feeling,� he added.
�It took me a little bit to get used to having that role as a leader on the team, but it�s a responsibility that I have enjoyed having.�
As for Smiley, the smooth-skating defenseman had his best statistical season to date for the Bandits, as the assistant captain, who scored 20 goals and had 21 assists in 46 goals.
�One of the things that I was hoping to do this season was to have 20 goals, and I was really excited about being able to do that,� said the third-year member of the Bandits.
�Other than that, everything went pretty well for me on the ice this year, and I was pleased with how things went.�
The two Airdrie natives also had a chance to compete at the 2013 World Junior A Challenge in Yarmouth, N.S. from Nov. 4 to 10, 2013 where they helped the Canada West team earn a bronze medal.
�I think anyone who has a chance to put on a Canada jersey will remember it for a long time,� Smiley said.
�It was a great experience for me, and to come away with a bronze medal was a nice way to finish things off there.�
�I really learned a lot during that tournament,� Paskaruk added.
�I got to play against many of the best players in the world, along with playing with many of the other top players in the country, and that just helped to make me better.�
While both players are focused on helping the Bandits in the playoffs, they are also currently preparing for the next step in their hockey careers as they will be playing NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) division one hockey next fall.
Paskaruk will be heading to Potsdam, New York to suit up for the Clarkson Golden Knights, while Smiley will be playing for the UMass Minutemen in Amherst, Mass.
Although both players will be leaving the Bandits, they said the lessons they have learned over the last couple of years will help them when they venture down south.
�In this league (the AJHL) you have a chance to become more aware of what is going on around you, especially when you are playing against older guys when you are starting out,� Paskaruk said. �I�ll be in that situation when I start off with Clarkson next year, but I�m sure I will get used to it.�
�To be honest, it�s going to be a major jump for any player when they move on from junior hockey to the college hockey ranks,� Smiley added. �However, we play a fast style of game here in Brooks, and I think that will be something that is going to be a major help for me.�

New York's top court says the man who used his unlimited MetroCard to swipe another rider into the subway for money didn't commit larceny though the activity is "decidedly criminal in nature."
The Court of Appeals ruled unanimously Tuesday to reverse Joseph Hightower's misdemeanor conviction for petit larceny.
The seven judges say the New York City Transit Authority never owned the money the rider gave Hightower and therefore the swiping didn't constitute larceny.
However, the court notes there was reasonable cause to charge him with unlawful sale of authority services and unlawful access to services.
The judges also note they don't address whether the misdemeanor for general theft of services would apply.
The subway system's ridership topped 1.6 billion last year. MetroCards for unlimited rides were introduced in 1998.

|Aphrodite Superstar
The video cover for Afrodite Superstar
|Directed by
|Venus Hottentot
|Produced by
|Candida Royalle
Release date
Afrodite Superstar is an American independent art film shot in New York City in 2006. The film has also been referred to as erotica. The director also refers to the film as an experimental film as the characters break the fourth wall, and there is a blend of satire. Afrodite Superstar was directed by Venus Hottentot. Executive producer Candida Royalle is also credited with directing the sexual scenes. Afrodite Superstar has been endorsed by American Association of Sexual Educators, Counselors and Therapists and premiered in 2007 at the New School for Social Research[1] with a discussion about women of color and sexual images. The film subsequently screened as part of an art exhibit called Hos, Putas and Dragon Ladies: Our Sexuality Remixed at the chashama Gallery in Manhattan.[2] Afrodite Superstar was nominated for 7 AVN Awards in 2007 including "Best Director", "Best Screenplay" and "Best Musical Score." The film was referred to as "erotic" and "cerebral" in Essence Magazine,[3] and was mentioned in the Village Voice's 2007 Sexy Gift Guide[4] by sexpert Tristan Taormino.
The satirical film spoofs several recent pop cultural It Girl moments such as Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction and Ashlee Simpson's lip synching fiasco. It has also been called an African American Red Shoe Diaries.[citation needed]
This section may stray from the topic of the article into the topic of another article, Venus Hottentot . (March 2013)
Afrodite Superstar was directed by art filmmaker Venus Hottentot.
Venus Hottentot is a feminist art school graduate who wanted to make a film that showed positive sexual representations of women of color to directly contrast the images in pop culture music videos, films and magazines, while also employing comedy and satire. She chose the name Venus Hottentot to reclaim the spirit of a South African woman, also called Saartjie Baartman, who was sexually displayed and exploited in Europe. The film quotes Gloria Steinem and bell hooks, and the director has been called the Zane of filmmaking. Venus Hottentot does not use the word "porn" to describe Afrodite Superstar as this term is misleading for this film.[5] To this end, the film has drawn ire from those seeking to use it for pornographic purposes as porn/ audience arousal was not the director's mission.[6] As an African American filmmaker, her objective with this project was reclaiming the voice and expression of women of color, as well as raising sexual self-esteem.[7]
Venus Hottentot has been identified as TV host/novelist and art film maker Abiola Abrams.[8]

Infant boys who were exposed in the womb to modest concentrations of certain common plasticizers and solvents developed genital changes including smaller-than-normal penises, a new study finds.
The results from this study of 85 boys are consistent with what researchers have seen in laboratory animals treated with the chemicals, which are called phthalates. In such tests, the substances impair fetal production of testosterone and other male sex hormones (SN: 4/3/99, p. 213: http://www.sciencenews.org/pages/sn_arc99/4_3_99/fob3.htm).

Letter: Mining jobs lost due to vote by senators, she says
TO THE EDITOR: On March 6, 16 democrat senators--Tim Carpenter, Lena Taylor, Spencer Coggs, Chris Larson, Jim Holperin, Tim Cullen, Mark Miller, Jessica King, Robert Wirch, Julie Lassa, Robert Jauch, Fred Risser, Jon Erpenbach, Dave Hansen, Kathleen Vinehout--and one republican (Dale Schultz) voted to kill the mining bill that would of generated over $1.5 billion for economic development in Northern Wisconsin for generations.
The mining company Gogebic Taconite pulled out of Wisconsin after the vote. This company would have created over 700 jobs in the first initial phase. These jobs would have paid at least $60 thousand a year.
Another 2,000 jobs would have been created in service and transportation, resulting in thousand and/or millions in dollars into the depressed economy. Most of the jobs would have been union jobs.
This company wanted to start mining taconite near the Penokee Range running from Michigan's Upper Peninsula through Wisconsin's Iron and Ashland counties. The unemployment in this area is around 10 percent.
Our state has a long history of conservation. Environmentalist claim this would of caused pollution to ground water. Most taconite mines present little risk to the environment because they release little contamination. Gogebic officials stated they would turn the mine into a lake after they were done working.
The democrats represented by the unions turned their noses against mining in Northern Wisconsin. They rather see thousands of opportunities leave the state and to run Gov. Scott Walker out of office. What message did these individual senators send to other corporations who thought of doing business in Wisconsin? What future do children have in this state for opportunities of good-paying jobs?
All kinds of blue collar workers would have benefited by this: plumbers, electricians, construction workers and others. These 17 senators helped lose jobs instead, so much for doing business in Wisconsin.

Lower bore axis.
Absolutely. The HK45 is probably the best hangun out there of its kind in my opinion. Definately the best .45 handgun. I gladly paid $900 for mine. Id do it again.
Apparently never fired a p7?
That's why people are winning in competition with H&K all over the world...I mean, if anybody actually was...that would be why...instead of winning with guns that cost half the price by do a lot better on accuracy, speed and reliability.
Although I believe that the statement you quoted to be silly, your arguement is a little off. HK has a far different business model than Glock and S&W. HK makes expensive, high quality guns and focuses on military contracts. Glock and S&W makes excellent, but lower costing striker fired designs and they want them in every holster possible. Sponsering alot of pro shooters helps them. I know HK has a shooting team also, but their emphasis is clearly not on it. They don't advertise a whole lot compared to Glock or S&W either. Plus, in pro shooting, its the indian not the arrow. There are people out there smoking the competition with Taurus for God sakes.
I don't understand how some think the HK's are overpriced. When I take my P-30 down and look at the engineering, machining, tolerances, etc, I don't know how they make a dime of profit. We are so fortunate to be able to buy and own such precision pieces. Like the old saying goes, "if you buy the cheapest one available, you get the cheapest one available."
I paid $999 for my HK45C.
Now that I've put a few thousand rounds down range.
I'm convinced its really worth much more than I paid.
Truly one of the finest .45 ACP handguns available at any price.
HK45C Light LEM
Then go to your FFL you bought this HK45C from and give him the rest of the money!
Already did that;
I wish HK would get their **** together and produce a striker pistol with a grip safety, perhaps a steel framed gun, as well.
hah ok, I love my P30 and 45c LEMs..
People say HK's are overpriced because a Glock can keep up with a HK for half the price of a HK. Lets get something straight. HK's quality isn't so good that it makes every other fireman a low quality firearm.
HK= Quality
Sig= Quality
Glock= Quality
1911= Quality
Springfield= Quality
Also concerning folks equating quality with higher priced guns... I'll just say this, I've seen 50k dollar Corvettes EAT 100k dollar BMW's and I've also seen 500 dollar Glocks with higher round counts then some of these 1000 dollar guns out here. I buy HK's because I like polymer DA/SA guns with a frame mounted safety, not because I beleive somehow since I coughed up 900$ my gun will be more reliable then your gun.
What would I like to see in a new HK pistol? Nothing! I don't want to see a P2000 or HK45c with the "Spidey" P30 grips because that would defeat the purpose of making them conceal carry friendly. I don't want to see them change the USP/USPc, if you don't like the USP/USPc get a P2000... Don't like that then get a P30 and if that doesn't fit you then I don't know what to tell you. From the P7 to the HK45 to the USP match and nearly ten different trigger configurations for each gun... If you can't find one that's perfect for you out of the HK toybox then eh, maybe you're a Glock guy.
a .22 upper for the P30......
1. Stippling from a USP Compact.
2. Slide release from a USP Compact.
3. Bobbed Hammer from a USP Compact.
4. Slide profile and milling from a P2000 or P30.
5. Rail from a P2000. (Not P30)
6. Grip shape and size from a USPc .45
8. Mag release paddle from HK45C.
9. Barrel length matching P2000.
10. 9mm and .357 Sig.
11. Dimensions no larger than P2000.
Yeah so like a USPc and a P2000 have a baby and there you go.
dont you own a P7?!? notice the lack of hammer...
if you're are going to be a over zealous fanboy at least be a knowledgeable one.
and please, besides look pretty, (which, for a combat weapon, means nothing) enlighten me on what your HK can do that Glocks cant for half the price.
I happen to like HK, but im not delusional enough to think that Glocks are crap. a talented shooter can be just as accurate with a glock, and most are just as reliable. it wont ruin my day if i drop a glock. an HK on the other hand....
Pass the DHS torque test?
I actually shoot a Glock better than an HK, but the HK is a better built gun IMO.
She HAD a P7.........for a little while.....
*deleted- phone took it upon itself to post.*
I'd rather see a new, sweet HK forum.
But not "just" a forum.
One like this..........

One great detriment toward atopping the
progrraa of the fire waa that the water had
been drawn from tha boiler ol the steam en
gine to keep it Irom freesing early ia the
n.ght. Water had to ba pumped Into tbe
engine after it arrivi d at the fire, which ro
quirod aoiue t-uie. Ihen again, when En
gine No. 2, which ia a hand enmne con
trolled by the colored company, arrived It
waa found that the suction hose had been
cut, completely disabling the ergine.
The colored company bave always done
Snod work at our ftres, and they were much
isappointed when they found that their en
gine could not be put to service. Tba atenra
engine did some fine work a'ter it got under
headwat , and the firemen and hook and lad
der company did noble work in arreating
the flauiea which, had it not been for them,
would have consulted ail the lower
portion of Jlan s'roet, including
the compress, together with 3000
bales of cotton. Streams of water wera pour
ed into the ruins until this morning. The
only accident was to Mr. Hugh Craig, who
receive I a very painful, though not danger
ous scalp wound bv a br:ck failing from the
the llav.eksmp building. Today Mr. Craig
is resting quietly.
The cauieof the fire is not kcown, though

Free frorh Lime
The Royal Baking Powder ia made from Cream of Tartar
specially refined and prepared for its use by patent processes, by
which the Tartrate of Lime is totally eliminated.
This highly Important result has been attained only with
great care, labor and expense. In money alone a quarter of a
million dollars has been invested in patents, machinery and ap
pliances by which the crude Cream of Tartar, being procured
direct from the wine districts of Europe, and subjected in this
country to these exclusive processes, is rendered entirely free,
not only from the objectionable Tartrate of Lime, but from
other foreign substances.
This adds greatly to the cost of manufacturing Royal
Raking Powder; but, as all its other ingredients aro selected
and prepared with the same precise care and regartHess of labor
or expense, an article is produced that is entirely free from any
extraneous substance and chemically pure in all respects.
No lime, earth, alum or impurity of any kind can, by inad
vertence or by tho uso of adulterated articles or otherwise, be
introduced into lho "Royal," and it contains no ingredients
except those certified by the most eminent chemists necessary
to make a pure, wholesome and perfect baking powder.
It costs more to manufacture tho Royal Baking Powder
than any other, but it is, as shoM'n by chemical analysis,' tho
only absolutely p'uo liakinfj Powder made. , ,
Kuynl is the only Raking Powder made that is free from
botli lime and ulu mi.

Another Texas doctor plans to follow Dr. Kent Brantly to West Africa.
Dr. Thomas Ksiazek is a professor at the University of Texas at Galveston. He plans to fly to Sierra Leone in one week. Once he's there, he will work to track Ebola patients or anyone who has been in close contact with the virus.
Dr. Ksiazek says he's not worried and is prepared for the challenge.
He and his colleagues at UT Galveston are working on a possible vaccine for Ebola. They say it has proven successful in lab tests.

Police and fire initiative to target dangerous drivers
12:00pm Wednesday 12th February 2014
12:00pm Wednesday 12th February 2014
EMERGENCY services are working together on a series of 'driver engagement days' throughout the county between now and the end of March.
The joint Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service and Cheshire Police initiative is aimed at reducing the numbers of deaths and serious injuries on Cheshire's roads.
Cheshire Constabulary will be out enforcing traffic laws, utilising the National Driver Offender Retraining Scheme (NDORS) as an option to local drivers who commit road traffic offences.
People using mobile phones at the wheel, failing to wear a seatbelt, speeding or driving without due care will be targeted.
Anyone stopped for driving while not wearing a seatbelt will be offered a range of options, one of which is to attend a 15 minute presentation by the fire and rescue service.
Anyone seen to be driving without due care, using a mobile phone, speeding or driving through a red light could be fined, face penalty points, or offered the NDORS course.
Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service's Community and Road Safety Manager, Martin Dowle, said: "Driver engagement days are an excellent way of getting some simple but effective messages over about the devastating impact of poor driver behaviour.
"Last year more than nine out of ten people we spoke to said they were likely to change the way the drive as a direct result of what our fire and community safety officers told them."
PC Dave Murray added: "This educational initiative combined with our regular roadside enforcement will help to drive the message home to motorists that committing traffic offences and putting road users at risk will not be tolerated. We will continue to work in partnership to make our roads safer for all who use them."

WAN/Network Simulation
iTrinegy now offers one of the most comprehensive ranges of WAN Emulation products to enable you to realistically recreate the conditions of your existing (or proposed) IT network in a safe off-line environment.
It is then possible to test the performance of new (or existing) applications in this replicated network, safe in the knowledge that you are not going to bring down your organization's live production network which will be hosting mission-critical applications and services.
Furthermore, using one of iTrinegy's network emulators will enable you to make changes to, and model a network environment in ways that your network manager would simply not allow in the live network or enable you to model how the application will work over new networks that you do not have ready access to.
iTrinegy Network Emulator products can be used to emulate a variety of networks including:
- High Latency WANs (National, International, Satellite) Wireless Networks (e.g. Wi-Fi, WiMAX and 3G)
- Jittery networks - such as cause VoIP deployments a problem
- Networks that lose and/or damage traffic
- QoS based networks (e.g. MPLS)
- Routed Networks
and all combinations of these types of network.
Typical network impairments that the iTrinegy Network Emulators can produce for each network segment include:
- Bandwidth Restrictions
- Delay (Latency and Jitter)
- Packet Re-ordering, Packet Error and Packet Loss
- Traffic Shaping and Traffic Prioritization (QoS) - INE Enterprise and INE Ultra only
