Memories of WWII shared at recent Ponce Training Station reunion
Every year a group of men and women who were trained or are part of the permanent detail at the Ponce Training Station gather in St. Augustine to share memories about their World War II experiences. The reunion, held in April, is organized by local resident and retired SPAR, Marian "Butch" Barnett in cooperation with the St. Augustine Lighthouse & Museum. In the fall of 1942, the Coast Guard established a training station using the famous Ponce de Leon Hotel, currently Flagler College, as headquarters. In November of the same year, the Women's Reserves, known as SPARS, was established to handle clerical and other shore duties to free up male personnel for sea duty.SPARS is an acronym for Semper Paratus, Always Ready, the motto for the United States Coast Guard. The name also has a nautical connection; a spar is also a stout pole, such as a boom or a mast. The SPARS started with 800 recruits, but from 1942 to 1946 10,000 SPARS signed up for duty.

Anti-immigrant fervor on TV and radio talk shows, citizens attempting to enforce immigration laws and the enactment of restrictive laws, such as the Real ID Act, are evidence of this trend. Some of our elected officials are joining the parade, going so far as to call for the closing of our southern border.

Perspective: Choosing to live on the edge of disaster
When I was a child growing up in Yonkers, N.Y., my mother would lull me into a sense of security by extolling the virtues of our particular longitude and latitude. No earthquakes like in California, she'd say, and no tornadoes like in the Midwest. Only the tail ends of hurricanes, unlike those poor people down in Florida.
Guest Column: Education; pay now or pay later
Regarding a recent writer's submission "We're doing something right at Florida schools," being ranked by Newsweek won't help our schools or children. Until we make a wholesale change, Florida students will always be behind. Compound existing problems with the class size amendment and we are in even deeper trouble. Unless we demand change now, our beloved Sunshine State is poised to leave her children forever "In the Dark" when it comes to education.

Perspective: Hear the heroes of June 4th
Samuel Eliot Morison was one of the 20th century's most eminent American historians. His writing is vivid, but in "The Two-Ocean War" he appeals directly to his readers just once. Speaking of airmen who died at the Battle of Midway, he writes, "Think of them, reader, every Fourth of June. They and their comrades who survived changed the whole course of the Pacific War."
Editorial: Around the nation
Pensacola (Fla.) News Journal, on Congress and the steroid hunt:
Letter: Different times
Editor: I was reminded again by a recent letter writer of how the Spanish settlers were seen as butchers by today's Native Americans. After almost 60 years of the study of cultural history and involvement in its interpretation one thing seems clear. The past can not be judged by today's concepts or mores. It is no surprise that Pedro Menendez arrived with the military and religious concepts of his time. Remember, the Spanish were acting under orders from the highest legal authority of the age, the Spanish king, and the highest moral entity, the Pope. Why do you think the Native Americans tortured and cut up their enemies, but that they behaved according to their beliefs?

You two are talking about the same thing using different words. :-) Travis's "modified traditional" model is that of JStatSoft's: as soon as an article is accepted, it is immediately published on the web as it's own "issue". A "volume" is simply a fairly arbitrary number of consecutive "issues". In the "really traditional" model, maybe a dozen or so articles are published every n months in an "issue" and a "volume" is simply a year's worth of "issues". The "modified traditional" model is just as much a rolling model as the arxiv's, it just (ab)uses the traditional "volume/issue" terminology to make the citations look more acceptable. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco

Manifesto of the Southern National Congress
Why a Southern National Congress?
The Southern National Congress Committee first met in March 2006 to plan the formulation of the Congress.
The Executive Council of that planning committee prepared and printed the following Manifesto.
To Our Fellow Southerners:
From The Executive Council of the Southern National Congress Committee
This is an invitation to all Southerners of good will and good character, who love their country and who seek to preserve our liberty, prosperity, and identity, to join with us in organizing a Southern National Congress (SNC).
We start with the proposition that the South and its inhabitants are a separate, distinct, and worthy people rooted in soil, kinship, shared history and customs. If you reject this notion or find it pointless or irrelevant, then you needn't bother to read further. But if you do accept it, you probably also understand how significantly we Southerners have contributed to America's founding and her subsequent history, and you believe we deserve to prosper and flourish. You probably also understand that our identity, culture, liberty, and well-being are threatened as never since 1865. These threats are subtle and insidious, yet potentially more destructive than the outright invasion, military force, and occupation used against us in the Second War of Independence.
What then are we to do? What can we do? Of course, we of the SNC Committee don't profess to have the final answers to such deep, complex, far-reaching questions. But we may have a partial solution. Moreover, we believe it's foolish to refrain from doing anything simply because we can't do everything. The mighty oak springs from a single acorn. The longest journey begins with but a single step.
Manifesto, Part 2
A Separate and Distinct People
An Occupied People
Manifesto, Part 3
The Grand Bargain
The South and the American Republic
Manifesto, Part 4
A Republic. If you can keep it
Manifesto, Part 5
Guard Us From Our Guardians, O Lord
Republicans and Conservatives Will Not Save Us
Manifesto, Part 6
Exercising Our Sovereignty
A Positive Vision
The Power of Symbolic Speech
Changing the Paradigm
No Foreordained Outcome
Let the Past Be Past
Manifesto, Part 7
But Will It Work?
The Few Always Decide
Peaceful Means
Jeers and Scoffing -- and Worse
A Great Adventure
The past is set, but the future is ours.
Join us in building a Southern National Congress
and in claiming the future that is our birthright.
Worth Quoting
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.
Samuel Adams
What is liberty without wisdom and without virtue?
Edmund Burke

There is a dissertation simply a crucial sounding label for a lengthy composition – according to your own personal study. Producing a dissertation can be an interesting, challenging, worthwhile and frequently great experience. In the same time it may be exhausting, time-consuming, frustrating and infuriating.Most dissertations follow the exact same framework that is essential and therefore are made up of strategies: an abstract, launch, five elements and dialogue, findings and recommendations. Although the specific detail of every aspect may differ (like the variety of words authorized within the abstract), the supplement of each and every component is common and mounted. I prefer to evaluate the dissertation's composition together with an function –'s formula commonly your dissertation acquiring main motions a prelude along with a finale. A terrific musician so does a terrific dissertation and gets an encore too –.If your research theme was settled on by you've – well-done! Today you have to convert investigator – accumulating every one of the data you're able to to guide and demonstrate your theories and looking for. Now could be the time for accumulating together and examining the literature on your own doorstep along with in your field of study; data from wide and far –.As there are different varieties of information accessible addressing grips using the bewildering selection of resources is very an activity alone. By hotfooting it for your university selection to searching the World Wide Web and planning online, you could properly locate most of the information you need.Subsequently writing a low up -scientific dissertation is likely to be described as a satisfying experience. A low-scientific, or theoretical, doesn't that is dissertation have any info you've created at-all. You won't have surveys interviews or observations to provide however, you do have to handle the design and flow of argument successfully so your realization is sensible and the part that is finished is defined and clear.Examiners desire to be ready to follow along with any guide in your function up by simply flipping for the bibliography and seeing all-the info you've found in a recognisable and clear structure.Learners typically get into a spin about referencing and bibliographies. But creating a great bibliography is just a rather simple solution to gain items. A properly-crafted listing of places is so you can get a significant class, an expectation and prerequisite. Not participating for the bibliography and sources is just a definitely pointless method to function be not wise not to spending some time on this task.Mba Dissertation Topics Examples

While most TV stations that still broadcast in analog are sticking to the June 12 shutdown date, 158 stations intend to turn those signals off before then, according to regulators.
Most of the 158 stations, about 15 percent of those still broadcasting in analog, are in smaller markets and don't broadcast any of the four major commercial networks. Exceptions include the NBC and ABC affiliates in Denver, which are shutting analog on April 16.
The list was released by the Federal Communications Commission late Tuesday.
More than 600 stations have already killed analog, with many of them shutting down around Feb. 17, the original deadline. That means just under half of the country's 1,759 TV stations will have ended analog transmissions before June 12.
PBS stations, many of which are financially strapped and don't want to bear the cost of keeping analog broadcasts, account for 58 of the stations that are set to shut down early, leaving 125 broadcasting in analog until June 12.
The Trinity Broadcasting Network, with religious programming, is shutting down analog early at 26 stations, leaving eight.
The FCC could prohibit a station from shutting down early to make sure that people can get at least one station broadcasting in analog in their area.
The vast majority of full-power stations are already broadcasting digital signals, which can be received by newer digital TV sets or through converter boxes.
Nielsen Co. said that as of March 1, 4.5 million households that receive only over-the-air broadcasts haven't prepared for the analog shutdown. The figure includes households that have bought a converter box but haven't connected it.
The converter boxes are subsidized through a government coupon program that ran out of money in January, which was the main reason the nationwide mandate for the analog shutdown was postponed beyond the originally scheduled date of Feb. 17. The coupon program has received new funding through the national economic stimulus bill, and the government is working through its wait list.
(Corrects that 158 stations intend to shut down early, not necessarily cleared by FCC. )

I do love mango and they are in season but here's the thing: I happened upon a huge box of them for $12 and I've been eating mangos ever since. So I needed to dream up a lot of recipes to use them — and I'm sharing, of course!
This salad recipe uses my Marinated Mozzarella Cheese which is bursting with lime, cilantro and basil — yum! It goes so well with the grilled mangos that it's bound to be a favorite.
Prep time: 15 minutes
Total time: 6 hours (for the mozzarella)
Yield: 4 servings
Mango Salad with Basil & Mozzarella
- 2 mangos
- 1/2 pound Fresh Mozzarella Marinated in Basil & Lime
- 10 fresh basil leaves
- Olive oil
Cooking directions
- Okay, if you haven't made my marinated mozzarella cheese recipe, get at it! It is super tasty. You don't need use that for this recipe; you can use plain cheese. But why?
- Now you need to slice those mangos. You can watch my video on How to Cut a Mango for this. Instead of cutting it into chunks, I just did strips. Easy breezy!
- Grill the mangos such that they have these lovely grill marks on each side. Man, they are so good this way!
- Now serve it up, layering the basil, grilled mangos and mozzarella cheese. Drizzle olive oil over it and chill it in the fridge for about 20 minutes before serving.

I know there have been several other posts about this, I have read most all of them.. just thought it wouldn't hurt to throw my own out there :)
I am looking to start doing some machine applique and embroidery, and I'm wondering what machine might best fit my needs. At the moment, I'd like to stay under the $500 price range. It would be for personal use, so I don't need anything with a bajillion needles. I also do not need it to be a sewing machine as well.. I have a Janome that I love. I would prefer something with a 5x7 hoop size or bigger.
ETA that I would love something that I can use designs from my computer, not have to buy a bunch of cards and such.
Any thoughts? I am not opposed to buying a gently used machine. Thanks!

The Prosecutor
Chapter 4
A Time For Truth
Professor Wogglebug was happy to change from his drab, black judicial robes back into his colorful suit and top hat. He removed the hat and placed it in the crook of his arm as he entered the Royal Library for the second time that day. He smiled at Ozma as he gave her a deep bow and was delighted to see that the fruit bowl was still there.
Ozma nodded as he took his seat. "I just spoke to Dorothy, She's going to confine Eureka to her rooms in the palace."
The Wogglebug nodded with approval, "That is a fitting punishment. Cats are instinctual hunters, they do love to roam about."
"So you are satisfied with the results of the trial?"
"I couldn't be more delighted! Not only did I obtain a conviction establishing my superior legal skills but the defendant was also found innocent thus obliviating the need for an execution. You were most fortunate!"
Ozma smiled, "Yes, I got my little piglet back."
"That too but that's not what I meant." He began carefully peeling an orange. " Eureka's life was spared. Now you might not like that obnoxious little cat and I certainly don't like that obnoxious little cat but Dorothy loves that obnoxious little cat." He popped an orange slice into his mouth. "Her execution would have driven a wedge between you and Dorothy. It might have been subtle, nearly invisible but it would have always been there."
Ozma looked up at the painting of Dorothy and the Wicked Witch. "I didn't think of that, I was just so angry at the time."
"You were making decisions based entirely on emotion. Not only this but your expedition to the Nome Kingdom. An expedition that you didn't invite me on." He added with a hurt tone.
"You didn't want to go."
Professor Wogglebug drummed his fingers on the table, "I never said that I didn't want to go, I didn't want you to go. I didn't want anyone to go. The whole expedition was poorly planned. You were very lucky it didn't end in a total disaster."
"It all ended well," Ozma said smugly. "We rescued the Royal Family of Ev. Or don't you care about them?"
"Of course I care about them! I'm the one who taught you the history of Ev! I was worried sick about their fate. But you set off without any plan and only a vague idea of what a Nome was or even of the location to the entrance of the Nome Kingdom. You knew nothing about the Nome King. You had too few troops for an invasion and too many for a diplomatic mission. If you hadn't have met Dorothy and if she didn't have a chicken with her, you and thirty two of your subjects would have disapeared into the depths of the earth and not even Glinda could have gotten you out." The Wogglebug remained silent for a moment. "But since you were going anyway I wanted to go with you."
"Why would you want to go on an expedition that you felt was doomed?"
"The same reason all your other friends and subjects went, because we love you. But you were making important decisions based entirely on fevered emotions. Putting other people's lives in jepardy. All you have to do is lift a finger and we would all jump into the Deadly Desert for you. That means that you must be very careful before you lift a finger." He plucked a nice red apple from the bowl. "You were just very lucky. If Dorothy had brought Toto or Eureka along instead of Billina we wouldn't be having this conversation. A ruler can only depend on luck so far."
"So you would have just left the Queen of Ev and her ten children to their fate?"
Professor Wogglebug shook his head. "No, but you should be guided more by your intellect and keep your emotions under control. Collect intellegence on the Nome Kingdom first. Find out what their strengths and weaknesses are. There are millions of Nomes. Perhaps we could have found one and asked him questions. Found out what kind of person the Nome King was, what he likes, what his weakness are. By using brains and education you could be a much better ruler."
Ozma nodded, "So you don't approve of how I've been running things so far?"
"Ozma, I've known you since you were a boy." He glanced at Ozma and smiled as she rolled her eyes in exasperation. "On the whole you've been an excellent ruler." He stopped munching on the fruit and turned toward her with a solomn expression. "But I do fear for the future."
Ozma was puzzled. "In what way?"
"I am a scholar of history as well as all the other sciences. There are two axioms that have been proved time and time again. 'Power tends to corrupt, absoloute power corrupts absoloutly.' And 'The road to hell is paved with good intentions.'"
Ozma frowned. "You think I'm turning into a tyrant? Really?"
"You are immortal, you will rule Oz for an indefinate amount of time. What will you be like a hundred years from now? Most tyrannies began with the best of intentions. The ruler knows what's best. Wants to do good for the people. The opposition will only undo all the good that's been accomplished. They must be put down. You have already taken the first baby steps in this direction. It's not too late to back up."
Ozma pursed her lips. "I don't necessarily agree with you but what would you suggest?"
"What I suggest might be frightening at first. What you should do is give up some of your power."
"How could I do that?"
"Oz does not presently have a strong central government. It is made up of dozens of small kingdoms. Make a handful of laws for the whole country but only a handful. Allow each little king or queen to make their own laws and rule as they see fit. Do not interfere as long as they don't harm their own people or molest their neighbors. They might do things that you don't approve of. A good ruler always tolerates people and things that they don't approve of. If the people in one area don't like their rulers they can always move to another area. It's called voting with your feet."
"Hmm," Ozma stroked her chin. "I'll consider your advice. And I hope that if I ever go too far you will always be there to pull me back. I trust you to give me blunt, honest advice. I've also been thinking about what you said this morning. About combining magic and technology. The Wizard plans to remain in Oz and I plan on teaching him real magic. He is a very clever engineer and would be the perfect candidate for combining the two. You should work closely with him on the project. Perhaps someday you will go Ozoplaning with the Wizard of Oz."
"Perish the thought!" The Wogglebug exclaimed..

The Dunster Country Fair Hound Show gives Hunts the opportunity to compete against each other in the ring and show off their hounds to the general public. The Hound Show starts at 10am when Staghounds, Foxhounds, Harriers, Beagles and Minkhounds will be showing in their respective rings. Around 30 hunts compete in the morning, culminating in the Supreme Championship between 12 & 1pm.
These packs of hounds have been carefully bred over hundreds of years to hunt their specific quarry, whether it was Fox, Deer, Hare or Mink. Their breeding can be traced through the hunt record books back over generations.
There are only three packs of Staghounds in the country all based here in the South West which are responsible for managing the Red Deer herds. It is the presence of these hunts which has ensured the survival of the only significant and truely wild Red Deer herds left in England. The old English thoroughbred Staghound is now extinct so the Staghound hunts use hounds of Foxhound blood. The modern day Staghound tends to be a large strong hound built for stamina.
Foxhound packs are the most common hunts in this country and they help to keep the Foxes at acceptable levels for the farmers by culling foxes using exemptions in the Hunting Act. Some hunts also undertake trail hunting. The Foxhound is another large hound built for speed and stamina.
The West Country Harrier is as its name implies mainly confined to the South West of England. It is taller, heavier and often a lighter colour than the studbook Harrier. It is smaller and lighter in weight than the Foxhound with a finer build. Originally they were bred to hunt Hares but most packs changed over to hunt foxes as well or exclusively with in the last eighty years prior to the hunting ban. The Harrier packs now also use exemptions under the hunting act or trail hunt. Due to their smaller size, agility and speed compared to the Foxhound they are particularly good at hunting in thick cover and over the difficult terrain found here in the south west.
The Beagle is the smallest hound on show. They stand between 14 and 16 inches. They were originally bred to hunt hares. Since the hunting ban most packs now hunt rabbits (which are exempt) or trail hunt. Hunt Staff and followers are on foot. Beagles are very enthusiastic and active hounds.
Minkhounds or Otterhounds
The Minkhounds or Otterhounds, hunted mink up until the Hunting Act became law. Otter hunting stopped voluntarily many years ago when there fall in otter numbers due to loss of habitat and water pollution. Mink were introduced into this country when they were released from Mink farms by animal rights extremists. They are a vicious predator often devastating local populations of native species such as the Water Vole and ground nesting Birds. The Minkhounds hunted on foot along the river banks during the summer months and helped to keep the Mink population in check. Since the ban they now hunt either Rats or Rabbits (both are exempt).The Minkhound is a friendly, tough, sturdy hound with a thick coat and is a good swimmer. It is ideally suited to hunting in difficult conditions.
The Five Couple Class
The five couple class will take place in Ring 2 in the afternoon. This is something which is not often seen so make sure you do not miss it! Each Huntsman will have five couple of hounds in the ring and be judged on the packs uniformity, conformation and way of going for 50% of the marks and their obedience and responsiveness for the other 50 %.

Every so often I have an extraordinary and surprising experience with a patient—the kind that makes us both say, "Wow, we've learned something from this." One such moment occurred recently.
A gentleman in his early 60s came in with a rather routine hernia in his lower abdomen, one that is easily repaired with a simple outpatient surgical procedure. We scheduled the surgery at a nearby hospital.
My patient is self-employed and owns a low-cost "indemnity" type of health insurance policy. It has no provider-network requirements or preferred-hospital requirements. The patient can go anywhere. The policy pays up to a fixed amount for doctor and hospital bills based upon the diagnosis. This affordable health-insurance policy made a lot of sense to this man, based on his health and financial situation.
When the man arrived at the hospital for surgery, the admitting clerk reviewed the terms of his policy and estimated the amount of his bill that would be paid by insurance. She asked him to pay his estimated portion in advance. (More hospitals are doing that now because too often patients don't pay their portions of the bills after insurance has paid.)
The insurance policy, the clerk said, would pay up to $2,500 for the surgeon—more than enough—and up to $2,500 for the hospital's charges for the operating room, nursing, recovery room, etc. The estimated hospital charge was $23,000. She asked him to pay roughly $20,000 upfront to cover the estimated balance.
My patient was stunned. I received a call from the admitting clerk informing me that he wanted to cancel the surgery, and explaining why. After speaking to the man alone and learning the nature of his insurance policy, I realized I was not bound by any "preferred provider" contractual arrangements and knew we had a solution.

Every Thursday for the last three weeks, I have been shooting an 85-round Action Pistol League event. It is a simplified and slowed down competition for newbies (like me). Iron sights on carry pistols only. I shot the first one with my snubbie, which has since gone in for a new barrel. Shot the second with my 686+ and did better. Shoot includes close/long range, weak/strong hand, Mosambique, hostage rescue, etc. We keep scored but do not compete.
Today I shot it again with my 686+ and, to my surprise, shot the league record score of 588 or 620 possible. Screwed up big time on hip shooting, losing ten points there. Hurried too much. The previous record was something in 560s, I think.
This isn't "serious" league, but I am happy and hope to improve the next time.
On the other bright side, I introduced three newbies to the league and got their interest up through it.

Hayden's Referendum 3B could shift
Provisional, unsigned mail ballots could tip school funding vote
November 3, 2010
Steamboat Springs — With Referendum 3B hanging by just a few votes, Routt County Clerk and Recorder Kay Weinland said it's possible for the results to shift as provisional and unsigned mail ballots are counted.
Referendum 3B would send $321,473 to Hayden schools. Referendum 3A, with a more comfortable margin of 151 votes, would provide $354,357 through property tax to South Routt schools.
Weinland said there are 27 provisional ballots that could affect the 3B vote. She said she doesn't know the number of unsigned mail ballots yet to be counted but it should be fewer than the 263 provisional ballots.
Ballots are considered provisional if there are questions about them — for example, a signature on a ballot not matching the signature on file for that voter. Clerks send a notice to anyone with an unsigned ballot and the voter has 10 days to verify the vote and have it counted.
Weinland has until Nov. 22 to certify the ballots in this and other races to make the results official.
Routt County sheriff
After mail ballots pushed All Crimes Enforcement Team Commander Garrett Wiggins solidly ahead of Routt County Sheriff Gary Wall, Weinland said there are not enough outstanding ballots to change the race.

Wiggins surged from a lead of 169 votes to a lead of 927 votes when mail ballots results were released to win 55 to 45 percent.
Wall and Wiggins could not be reached by phone for additional comments today.
Hayden Town Council
The final seat on the Hayden Town Council results were close Wednesday morning, with outgoing Mayor Lorraine Johnson retaining the council's fourth seat with an 18-vote lead over next-closest Tom Rogalski and a 21-vote lead over Pam Gann.
It now appears her seat is safe as Weinland said there are just 16 provisional ballots and fewer unsigned mail ballots from the town.
Johnson leads Rogalski 11.4 percent to 10.5 percent.
State election law calls for an automatic recount of elections if the results are within one half of 1 percent. If the disparity is greater than one half of 1 percent of the winning candidate — Johnson currently — the candidate or "interested party" who called for the recount is responsible for the cost of the recount.
In Routt County, a recount would entail rescanning the ballots for the races the recount was called for.
Ballot counting delay
Final Routt County results, including race-deciding mail ballots, weren't released until 2:30 a.m. Wednesday. Weinland said the delay was caused by the software used to read the scanned images of the ballots.

if it's a single shot he's fine, the only real issue usually is that it's hard to extract from a repeater
if it's a single shot he's fine, the only real issue usually is that it's hard to extract from a repeater
I don't understand how anyone could thing a .22 Hornet would fit in a .22LR ...
Talk about dumb
That being said it hurts me that they do things like this.
For starters one is centerfire while one is rimfire. Secondly the case is 2 TIMES AS LONG as the .22lr or .22Long.. Thirdly it's a tapered cartridge while the .22LR is straight walled.
If you can't pick up something that obvious at glance their is something wrong with you
Wow super rude.
Let's see
1) Yeah sorry pictures don't tell me that a cartridge is rimfire or centrefire.
2) Yeah sorry pictures that don't have both rounds right fucking next to each other don't really offer apt comparisons between cartridge length
Only thing wrong here is your attitude and/or superiority complex.
No, you're just being an idiot. It's obvious if you looked at it that this:, that it couldn't fit into a gun that fires this:
Sorry Starlight but IMO you're being the idiot. Those pictures do not offer apt comparisons even when put next to them. Yes, the Hornet round is obviously tapered but you cannot tell any other difference between the two.
Actually in these pictures the Hornet looks SMALLER than the .22LR because the one with the .22LR is larger.
You're not helping download's case.
I also think the two of you are being fucking retards for going off the deep end over what was pretty much a passing curiosity, and I would appreciate it if the two of you fucked off.
(User was banned for this post ("Flaming - should know better" - Craptasket))
(User was permabanned for this post ("Breaking rules on an ALT - Didn't know better" - Craptasket))
I think you've all gone nuts
You can see it's centerfire, which should make it obvious it won't work. After you see it's tapered
From right to left: 22lr, 22 magnum, 22 hornet. There's also Wikipedia, which tells you the diameter of the cartidge, length, ect.
Not trying to be a dick or anything, but there's your comparison.
I can tell this is an argument but for some reason I can't see anything other than PBFGBBBBBFPBT followed by you goofs throwing your rattles and pacifiers at each other
Yeah I got it by now it's bigger.
I saw some .22 Hornet and thought it looked like a neat round. Asked in passing curiosity while doing other things if it could be fired from a weapon that fires .22LR
Fucking sue me. Christ.
will you guys please quit sperging out over this
shit up steam chat or something
Hey, download, I'll give you a hint.
That isn't where I saw .22 Hornet
I'll give you another hint.
It was a different fucking picture.
You have a serious fucking issue dude. Someone asks a question in passing curiosity and you feel it's a correct course of action to beat them over the head with information in a dickish and condescending manner.
You have a serious issue of not being able to do a 20 seconds Google search
And an issue of not having an ounce of common sense
I can't stop caring, Buttsex. The stupidity flowing from his fingers through his keyboard onto this forum is disgusting.
By any chance does anyone here live in Central Florida and plan on going to the Orlando Gun Show in July? Be neat to meet up at the fairgrounds and pal around looking at guns.
What's the date? I don't live anywhere near Central Florida but I'm in that area strangely often.
July 6th and 7th
Work day? The 6th and 7th are on a Friday/Saturday.
Do what I'm doing bro. Take the day off. I might take both days off just so I can wander around more. Depends on what's going on where I work.
I get paid a week before the gun show. I'm hoping I can put some money away to spend there. I'd fucking hate to go and not be able to buy something.
Hoping to get an SKS or AK-47.
Rule #1 of gun shows - don't go if you don't have the cash. The tables full of rare and strange guns will beckon and call, and you will not be able to answer.
There is no worse feeling.
I think that might be worse than not being able to afford a gun.
Cokeman rants about youtube gun videos.
OH god this guy is so extremely angry it's hilarious. Yeah and hickok is awesome.
cokeman is the best gun channel
Fired my Makarov today, feels like a nice solid gun.
Took my M1A to the range, had 3 misfires till I realized I wasn't letting go of the bolt properly, fired like a champ afterwards, put 75 rounds through her.

The President of Corruption and Fraud Audit Consortium (CAFAC), Hector Boham has called on government, organizations and stakeholders to help fight fraud and corruption in the country.
He said the country must stop discussing issues on fraud and corruption but research thoroughly to find solutions to them.
He made the remarks during the organization's inauguration and enrollment conference on Saturday at the University of Ghana Business School.
CAFAC, an anti-corruption organization, also serves as a school for students, who are trained to become fraud examiners.
Mr. Hector, a Ghanaian based in the US, stated that his organization was ready to train graduates.
He stated that the oil and gas industry is new in the country, stressing that if care was not taken, the country would suffer similar challenges facing Nigeri.
' I want my organization to start training oil and gas accountants and auditors, who know what it is to fight fraud so that as our revenues start increasing, these professionals will protect our revenues and prevent them from being sent abroad and into the pockets of private individuals,' he added.
Professor Kwame A. Domfeh, the Dean of UGBS, during his keynote address, commended Mr. Boham for his dedication to fighting fraud and protecting the rights of Ghanaians.
Mr. Boham, in his closing remarks, appealed to organizations and stakeholders to implement their ideas.

text: Ok so first of I'd like to say thank you to ranger and PatriceJ for helping me figure out the resizing of my giant photos! This is the first big quilt like blanket I have made. It was a gift for my sister on her college graduation. I hand embroidered her favorite characters from her mangas, animes, and videogames. I also put in her favorite movie and tv quotes. then just threw them all together! No special quilting just did some zig zag stitching along each seam. She loves it which is what makes me love it even more. Let's see if these pics work.
