U.S. Report on 30,000-Member Iranian "Terror Force" Called Into Question
At least one media outlet as well as foreign policy analysts have questioned the recent news of Iran's intelligence ministry having a 30,000-strong force committed to terrorism and assassinations.
CNN and other media sources reported earlier this month that the Iranian intelligence ministry controlled "a terror and assassination force 30,000 strong." The figure seemed surprisingly large, prompting ProPublica to investigate its validity.
The investigative website found that the media had relied on a report from the Federal Research Division, which is part of the Library of Congress, for the 30,000 number.
But it turned out researchers at the Library of Congress had gotten their information from "an obscure, anonymous website that was simply citing another source," ProPublica reported.
The buck finally stopped with Magnus Ranstorp, a Swedish terrorism researcher quoted in a 2008 Christian Science Monitor article. But even Ranstorp said he wasn't sure where the number came from.
"I think obviously that it would be an inflated number" of formal employees, he told ProPublica.

The crew members from Fox Sports Net were doing more than just their usual daily routine when they broadcast Wednesday's Spurs-Memphis Grizzlies game from the AT&T Center.
They were also gathering footage and interviews for a story on the Baseline Bums. The Bums story is likely to appear as part of their pregame coveraging some time in January.
The current FOXSN Spurs lineup for January is:
Jan. 3: at Timberwolves
Jan. 9: vs. Blazers
Jan. 15: at Bulls
Jan. 19: vs. Hornets
Jan. 22: at Celtics
Here are some views on the Spurs and the NBA from other media:
See who referred to Tim Duncan as Timmy Robot.
The Spurs had a curious solution to their center needs over the offseason, when they signed Jackie Butler, according to Bill Ingram of Hoopsworld.com.
The Sporting News' Sean Deveney says the Spurs' recent winning streak is proof all is right with the world. See his NBA ratings.
Hopefully you have already seen Mike Monroe's NBA power rankings. Monroe's rankings appear Sunday's in the Express-News and on MySA.com.
See what former Spurs center Nazr Mohammed said to the Detroit News about a variety of subjects, including sitting on the bench during last season's playoffs.
Former Spurs assistant coach Will Voigt is the head coach of the Burlington Frost Heaves of the American Basketball Association. The Burlington Free Press caught up with Voigt.
And finally:
Knicks coach Isiah Thomas was probably not a favorite of Spurs fans even before the recent Knicks-Nuggets fight. It wasn't that long ago that he got on the bad side of the Spurs and Bruce Bowen. Here is a different viewpoint on Thomas from George Willis of the New York Post.

IC floor planning moves ahead
Post a comment
Santa Cruz, Calif. - A new approach to IC floor planning is said to reduce wire length while running orders of magnitude faster than previous solutions. If it can be applied successfully on a commercial level, the Patoma algorithm developed at the University of California at Los Angeles could help usher in a new generation of IC design-planning and placement tools.
Patoma was described in a paper given at the recent ASP-DAC conference in Shanghai, China, by noted EDA researcher Jason Cong, professor of computer science at UCLA. Authored by Cong, Michael Romesis and Joseph Shinnerl, the paper was titled "Fast Floorplanning by Look-ahead Enabled Recursive Bipartitioning."
"We consider this a fairly significant development because large-scale floor planning and mixed-size placement have become a very important problem for design planning, physical prototyping and physical implementation in nanometer-IC designs," Cong told EE Times.
Cong said the Patoma algorithm could be applied to commercial design-planning tools as well as IC placement tools. The improved wire length, he said, can reduce routing congestion and help improve performance, density and power. The faster run-times will reduce the overall design time and allow more design iterations.
Compared with Parquet-2, an academic floor planner based on simulated annealing, Patoma claims to run 37 to 824 times faster in benchmarks, while providing a 10 to 20 percent reduction in average wire length. It has not been compared with commercial EDA products.
"This is a good paper with some nice results," said Michael Riepe, member of consulting staff at Magma Design Automation Inc. "Algorithms such as [Patoma] would probably be applicable to commercial hierarchical chip-planning and prototyping products."
Patoma claims to floor plan any combination of fixed- and variable-shape blocks, given a fixed outline area and a wire-length objective. It constructs legal layouts for every partition block at every level of a top-down hierarchy, eliminating "post hoc" legalization, the UCLA paper states.
"Rather than optimize first and legalize afterward, Patoma legalizes first and then optimizes in a way that always allows it to recover some legal configuration before terminating," said Shinnerl, an assistant researcher at UCLA.
Patoma also claims two new techniques. One is a wire-length-aware, zero-dead-space (ZDS) floor planning, which is employed when blocks are soft. Another is a row-oriented block packing (ROB) heuristic, for floor-planning combinations of fixed- and variable-dimension blocks. ZDS and ROB are probably responsible for Patoma's wire-length improvement, said Magma's Riepe.
Patoma was developed in a year's time, with funding support from Semiconductor Research Corp. UCLA has a patent pending on the research. Cong said there was no direct support from EDA companies.

MUNRO, Henry, clergyman, born in Inverness, Scotland, in 1730; died in Edinburgh, 30 May, 1801. He was graduated at the University of St. Andrews, studied divinity at Edinburgh university, and in 1757 was ordained, and appointed chaplain to the 77th Highlanders, which he accompanied in General John Forbes's expedition to Fort Duquesne He was also at the capture of Crown Point, Ticonderoga, and Montreal in 1760, and preached a thanksgiving sermon to the victorious army on the hill behind the last-named city. He afterward served in the West Indies, but returned to this country in 1762 and settled in Princeton, N. J He then took orders in the Church of England, and in the year 1765 became missionary at Yonkers, where Colonel Frederick Philipse had built a church. In 1768 he became rector of St. Peter's Albany, and also acted, at Sir William Johnson's request, as missionary to the Mohawk Indians, whose language he spoke and whom he frequently visited. As an officer in the old French war, he acquired 2,000 acres of bounty land in Washington county, New York, and attempted to settle it, but the Revolution interfered, and it was subsequently sold by his son. Mr. Munro's church was closed by the Albany committee of safety in 1777, and he was imprisoned, but escaped to the British lines, and returned to Great Britain in 1778. In 1782 the University of St. Andrews gave him the degree of D.D. He married in 1762 Miss Stockton, of New Jersey, and, after her death, married, in 1766, Eve, only daughter of Peter Jay, who, with their son, remained in this country after Mr. Munro's flight to England.--Their only child, Peter Jay, jurist, born in Rye, New York, 10 January, 1767; died in Mamaroneck, New York, 23 September, 1833, was educated in New York, under the direction of his uncle, John Jay, until his thirteenth year, when he accompanied the latter to Europe on his appointment by congress to the mission to Spain, landing at Cadiz in November, 1779. Mr. Jay remained in Spain, although not formally received as minister, until 1782, residing at Madrid. During this time Mr. Munro's education was carried on under Spanish masters, and he became thoroughly versed in Spanish and French. In June, 1782. Mr. Jay left Spain with his family and went to Paris. During the peace negotiations, as well as after his trouble with Carmichael and Brockholst Livingston, his official secretaries, Mr. Jay committed many matters to his nephew in a similar capacity. Mr. Munro returned to New York with Mr. Jay on 24 July, 1784. He began at once the study of the law, and after a brief period was placed as a student in the office of Aaron Burr, whom Mr. Jay deemed the best practitioner of the day, and in due time was admitted to the bar. He soon acquired a lucrative practice, and from 1800 till 1826, when his health gave way, was one of the chief lawyers of New York. In 1821, with his cousin, Peter A. Jay, and Jonathan Ward, he was elected from Westchester county, where he had a country-seat, to represent that county in the Constitutional convention of that year. In that body Mr. Munro took an active part, being, by the appointment of its president, Governor Tompkins, chairman of the judiciary committee. In 1826, while he was engaged in active practice, Mr. Munro had an attack of paralysis, and, though he partially recovered and lived for seven years afterward, he spent the residue of his life as a country gentleman.

Time moves forward, not backward---everyone knows you can't unscramble an egg. In the hands of one of today's hottest young physicists, that simple fact of breakfast becomes a doorway to understanding the Big Bang, the universe, and other universes, too. In From Eternity to Here, Sean Carroll argues that the arrow of time, pointing resolutely from the past to the future, owes its existence to conditions before the Big Bang itself---a period of modern cosmology of which Einstein never dreamed.
Increasingly, though, physicists are going out into realms that make the theory of relativity seem like child's play. Carroll's scenario is not only elegant, it's laid out in the same easy-to-understand language that has made his group blog, Cosmic Variance, the most popular physics blog on the Net. From Eternity to Here uses ideas at the cutting edge of theoretical physics to explore how properties of space-time before the Big Bang can explain the flow of time we experience in our everyday lives. Carroll suggests that we live in a baby universe, part of a large family of universes in which many of our siblings experience an arrow of time running in the opposite direction. It's an ambitious, fascinating picture of the universe on an ultra-large scale, one that will captivate fans of popular physics blockbusters like Elegant Universe and A Brief History of Time.
©2009 Sean Carroll (P)2010 Tantor
Carroll writes with verve and infectious enthusiasm, reminding readers that science is a journey in which getting there is, without question, much of the fun.(Publishers Weekly)
"Great Book For Cosmology Lovers"
The reader's biggest challenge is to understand the complex material. If you're a lay person who's curious about time and the universe and also willing to accept that you're unlikely to comprehend all of the highly technical concepts being presented, then this book is probably for you. I enjoyed it and am glad I bought it.
If you're a hard-core scientific type who believes that scientists have no right to engage in speculative thought about the ultimate nature of the universe, then the predictions in the last few chapters may rub you the wrong way. Traditional scientific wisdom treats speculation unsupported by data as belonging to the domain of naïve amateurs. Accepted scientific thought is that such speculation should be avoided at all costs by 'real' scientists. To my mind though, the author (Dr. Sean Michael Carroll, Ph.D.) is to be commended for engaging in just this type of speculation. To a lay person like myself, it is intriguing to hear a well-respected theoretical physicist make specific "predictions" about the ultimate nature of our universe. ("Predictions" is a word Dr. Carroll chooses carefully.)
Even though Dr. Carroll does a fantastic job of formulating his explanations using everyday language rather than mathematical formulas, the challenge to the reader's intellect is still substantial. These include concepts such as Boltzmann brains, Maxwell's demon, de Sitter space, white holes, the Planck length, Schrodinger's Cat, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, Poincaré's recurrence theorem and many, many more. Thought experiments are high on Dr. Carroll's list of epistemological techniques.
One of the most rewarding aspects of Dr. Carroll's writing is that he goes to great lengths to distinguish between what is known fact, what is unproven theory and what is speculation. He is equally at ease admitting what is not known about our universe as he is with explaining what is known. The book also follows a very orderly progression of thought processes. Entropy and its entanglement with the arrow of time is introduced early on and remains the central theme throughout the book. Initially entropy is explained in the context of the second law of classical thermodynamics. The reversibility or irreversibility of physical processes is considered next. Then comes general relativity, quantum mechanics and quantum gravity.
If this book were a work of non-fiction, this paragraph would probably be labeled as a 'spoiler'. So consider yourself warned. Throughout the book, Dr. Carroll shows how the arrow of time always points in the direction of increasing entropy. He leaves the reader with the idea that this is the number one clue to the ultimate nature of our universe. Likewise, he leaves the reader with the feeling that the number two clue is the unlikely fact that our currently observable universe is in a low entropy state that was even lower at the 'big bang'. Using these two observations as stepping stones, he goes on to predict that our observable universe is merely a bubble, or "baby universe" that has pinched off from a parent universe. Collectively, Dr. Carroll calls the parent universe and all the baby universes a "multiverse". In this context, he describes how the multiverse is compatible with all the principles of entropy, thermodynamics, relativity, quantum mechanics ad quantum gravity that he has already described in the rest of the book.
In summary, this book is not for the faint of heart. If you're not prepared for a cerebral workout, don't buy it. If you like an intellectual challenge and enjoy musing about the nature of time and space, then this book is probably for you.
Two closing observations: On the 'upside', the narration by Erik Synnestvedt is very well done. On the 'downside' the narrative often refers to graphs and tables that are not accessible from the audio book file. This can be rather frustrating. The graphics should be bundled into the audio file download or a web page containing these images should be created for people who have purchased the audiobook.
"Best summary of modern cosmology yet, but...."
Ponderous, yes. Comprehensive, yes, yes. Up to date--wow. Carroll is a genius at seeing the links between critical ideas. I have heard him lecture on physics through the Teaching Company, and this book is far superior. But it is hard going, and sadly the publisher has not provided the figures to go with it, so it is difficult to follow some of Carroll's arguments. I recommend the first section to get your feet under you, the last section to review, and in between just listen and be amazed. This book will change your perspectives on both time and the universe. And you will get lots of exercise in the process.
"Good book!"
I listened to this book twice, and it's time well spent. I would have liked to have more description of how some of the principles were derived.
"Understand Entropy, you'll understand the universe"
He states Dark Energy comes from the vacuum energy. He completely delves into the 2nd law of thermodynamics (entropy) and explains it historically and with superb analogies. The expansion of the universe is finally starting to make sense to me. I read Brian Greene's books before this one and Carroll brings with him another useful set of analogies to explain the physics of the universe. At the end of the book Carroll gives a plausible explanation for why we are one universe in a mega-verse of universes.
I eagerly await his next book, and I will listen to it as soon as it's published. I like the author that much.
"Great but looks for the keys under the streetlight"
This book deserves a high rating simply because of the sheer quantity of interesting information and questions it clearly presents along with the pleasant narration. Most of the book focuses on the facts and questions related to our understanding of time followed by some relatively brief speculations. When speculation occurs it is clearly labeled as such. It is unfortunate that a PDF is not available for the figures discussed. There were, however, a few weaknesses. The book is largely from a general relativity point of view, only mildly addressing quantum effects. Particularly in the description of the hints we see in experiments regarding time, Carroll focuses a lot on the unexpectedly low entropy of the recent past (which is important) but then glosses over several other equally important hints such as the Bell/EPR results, Space and Time not being fundamental, and the information density enigma, he also speaks about the wave function as if it is fundamental while there are very good reasons to believe it is not.
The author basically admits although space and time being non-fundamental increasingly appears to be the case, he is unable to say anything interesting about this, so instead proposes solutions to the low entropy problem in a fundamental space-time context. This is a bit like looking for your keys under the streetlight because the light is better over there. Although speculation is an important aspect of science, successful speculation will illuminate by addressing several of the outstanding hints before us. Although the speculation was mildly interesting, the focusing on just one of the outstanding enigmas along with non-testability left it ultimately un-illuminating.
The author also indicates his preferred interpretation of quantum mechanics is the Multi-World interpretation. Although Carroll seems to point out QM having so many interpretations is odd (and likely another hint) instead of rejecting all the interpretations he seems to settle for one.
The key benefits of this book are the enigma and questions it raises. The author highlights most of the important enigmas giving us hints towards a fuller understanding of time; unfortunately he does follow most of the hint presented. For example the author points out the strong correspondences between information and entropy, even seeming to conclude that the information viewpoint is clearer and more fundamental, yet then proceeds to ignore the information viewpoint for the rest of the book.
Although the author does a pretty good job describing how classical entropy works, I am not sure I would have fully understood it without having listened to Penrose???s (long, detailed and daunting) description in Cycles of Time.
"Good book"
I had recently purchased a DVD set from the teaching company by Sean Carol and felt pretty content and that's the reason behind purchasing this book. No regrets here. Well written by Prof. Carol. I felt that the narration could have been better, but taking into consideration the material presented in the book it wasn't a big compromise to make. Overall a ***** i.e., a 5 STAR book.
"Time is truly disected like never before."
I love written books but I also love listenning to audio books while doing the mundane tasks required in the day to day grime. This book is great for the listener since hardly any math is mentioned and when it is required you dont feel overwhelmed.
Carroll has the best grasp of the meaning of
The part I enjoyed most was the many descriptions of how time was defined throughout history. The author made each insight as clear as a cloudless summer day sky. This was also helped by having it read aloud by a very firm and warm voice.
The book gave me a new view on the universe and how it came to be.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants a scientific view of what time really is. The reader needs only a basic grasp of science to enjoy the views carroll lays out. I am studying quantum mechanics and while I knew many of the theories he took time to describe I still felt as though much of it was a better way to see how it all works without the use of mathematics.
"Clear and to the point."
If you have any interest in
"Analogies Amuck"
I could not complete this AB, and regret its purchase. The analogies cited were sometimes helpful, but many could not be followed without supporting graphics. Using analogies to describe what something is NOT is pointless and confusing.
I may be too simple-minded to grasp the concepts being presented, although I did enjoy listening to Stephen Hawking's "The Grand Design" and felt comfortable to consider additional titles.
What really turned me off were Sean Carroll's injections of demonstrating his supposed cleverness over others in his field. Coupled with Mr. Synnestvedt's narration sounding to me like that of satirist Mo Rocca, this AB lacked the humility I expect from a great mind pondering the mysteries of our universe.
"great listen well worth it."
Carol does a great job relating universal time to a somewhat more understandable human scale.

Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida
I was Wrongly charged with Drug Paraphernalia
and went to the court with a letter from my doctor stating that I was in treatment and that I had every legal right to have it in my possession the judgement was Nol Pros which as I understand now is not a dismissal but just a deferment to throw back at me if I am convicted again for the same offense! this is wrong and I want the judgment changed an stricken from my record. how can I have this done?
2 Answers from Attorneys
What you can have done is to get the charge sealed or expunged from your record. You must be eligible though. You should contact an attorney to see if you are eligible for this.
You would be able to expunge your record since the charges were dropped, if you met all the other eligibility requirements. Can you answer "no" to the following three questions?
1. Have you ever been convicted of a crime before?
2. Have you ever sealed or expunged a record before?
3. Are you currently under court supervision?
If you can answer "no" to the questions above, you would be able to expunge. Expungement means your court records and nonjudicial records associated with your arrest would be physically destroyed.
Good luck!

Marian's new legacy
After about a year of planning and three months of construction, the new outdoor multiuse Legacy Plaza, nestled behind the Marian Catholic High School in Hometown, is complete. The Legacy Plaza was dedicated Friday evening in front of over 200 spectators, which included alumni, teachers, staff, football players, cheerleaders, band members, parents and others.
The new plaza, which stretches the entire length of the school's football field, was dedicated by Bishop John Barres from the Diocese of Allentown.
"This project celebrates the whole spirit of Marian," said Bishop Barres during the dedication.
It was donated through the generosity of the Svetz family in dedication of Theresa Svetz of Hometown and the late Joseph J. Svetz, both lifelong supporters of Catholic school education. It was planned and funded by their seven children, all of whom are Marian alumni, and their families. The seven children are Terry, Wayne, Cindy, Bruce, Greg, Cheryl and Joey.
"The plaza was constructed of over 10,000 bricks and 7,000 pavers," said Bruce Svetz, a 1983 graduate.
"Alumni, friends, business and community supporters can leave a permanent impression at Marian High School through an inscribed paver project where one can donate and recognize or remember an individual, family, business or organization," said Sue Gerhard, director of the alumni and business development office at the school.
The nearly 4,000-square-foot plaza was designed as a destination for students, family and alumni to enjoy year-round. Towering over the plaza is a 10-foot-high bronze horse kicking high into the sky.
Two statuesque brick arches link the plaza with the Men of Marian football stadium. Architectural lighting, bollards and a fence are also installed around the plaza.
In addition to sporting events, the plaza will be used during school hours, concerts, fundraisers and simply to relax.
All profits from the Legacy Paver Project will go directly to Marian High School; 50 percent of the proceeds will go to needed infrastructure improvements at the school. Svetz added his family's appreciation to Dan Schroeder, Wayne Postupak, Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Shickora, school Principal Sister Bernard Agnes, Stan Dakosty, and all supporters, friends, school staff, parents and students.
The remaining 50 percent will be allocated to support upgrades in educational resources, to include technology, music, student programs and expansion of educational offerings.
Anyone wanting to purchase one of the over 7,000 inscribed legacy pavers, is encouraged to call the school at (570) 582-0021 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

The 1920s were a time of unprecedented economic growth in the United States, which came to a screeching halt with the advance of the Great Depression in 1929. We emerged from WWI as the reigning superpower, and the modern era had begun. It would be a decade of automobiles for the blue-collar worker, the rise of radio and the beginning of talking movies. Old traditional social morays were discarded and the decade became known as The Roaring Twenties — it was also a time of unprecedented crime. In January of 1920 the Volstead Act became the law of the land, basically stopping the production and sale of alcoholic beverages. It stopped the production and sale of legal liquor, however illegal alcohol flowed as underground breweries and private clubs known as speakeasies emerged everywhere. Men like Al Capone made millions during prohibition. Alcohol was legalized once again in 1933, however with hard economic times a new breed of criminal had arisen specializing in robbing banks.
Not only had criminals discovered fast-moving automobiles they did not hesitate to arm themselves with a gun that became known as "The Chicago Chopper" and also "The Gun That Made The Twenties Roar" — Col. John Thompson's .45 fully automatic Thompson. Police were armed with standard .38 Special revolvers using 158-gr. roundnosed bullets with a muzzle velocity under 800 fps. They simply bounced off car bodies. The call went out to Colt and Smith & Wesson to provide better handguns for peace officers. Colt was the first to respond. They took an existing cartridge, the .38 Colt, increased the powder charge, and chambered it in the 1911 Government Model. The new .38 Super used a full metal jacketed 130-gr. bullet at 1,300 fps.
Smith & Wesson .38/44 Heavy Duty sixguns were offered in barrel lengths of 4″, 5″, and 61/2″.
The Heavy Duty
Smith & Wesson took a different path. They had been producing the standard police revolver, the .38 Special Military & Police for 30 years. With the existing metallurgy of the time period there was no way to increase the power of the .38 Special for use in this revolver. So Smith & Wesson looked to their large-framed revolver, the .44 Special Model 1926, fitted it with a .38 Special cylinder and barrel and the result became known as the .38/44 Heavy Duty. This burly sixgun could not only use standard .38 Special ammunition but the new .38/44 round as well.
This latter round was simply a hot-loaded .38 Special with a muzzle velocity of 1,125 fps. Notice in that time frame both Colt and Smith & Wesson used existing cartridges, loading them hotter, which made them dangerous to use in either existing .38 Colt semi-autos or .38 Special Colt or Smith & Wesson revolvers. They expected people to be smart enough to know which ammunition was to be used in which firearm. There were no warning labels obscenely printed on firearms, no lengthening of brass to keep it out of the older guns. Were people that much smarter in the 1920s/1930s?
Smith & Wesson's .38/44 Heavy Duty arrived in April 1930. The standard model featured a 5″ barrel with fixed sights and it truly was a heavy-duty sixgun, having been built on the .44 platform with smaller holes drilled in both cylinder and barrel. It made the recoil of a standard .38 Special round feel like a .22, while the new .38/44 round was easily manageable. The old pre-war super-smooth long action of Smith & Wesson sixguns is legendary, and many have commented shooting the .38/44 Heavy Duty double action was made easier, as inertia seemed to take over to help rotate the cylinder.
In addition to the 5″ standard model, Smith & Wesson also produced both 4″ and 61/2″ versions. It was only a few years ago when these guns could be picked up in excellent shape for $300 or less. Those days are now gone and expect to pay at least double or more than that today. The Heavy Duty was designed with law enforcement in mind, however Smith & Wesson did not take long to realize the versatility of what they had, and in late 1931 brought out the .38/44 Outdoorsman. This was nothing more than a Heavy Duty fitted with target sights for, just as its name suggested, outdoor use. The .38/44 Outdoorsman was cataloged only with a 61/2″ barrel, however more than one peace officer had the Outdoorsman cut back to 4″ for duty use, or in this case Heavy Duty use. I have a picture of Col. Walter Walsh, who was an FBI agent prior to WWII, dated 1954 and it shows him using a 4″ .38/44 Outdoorsman.
Need a big gun? S&W had one for you!
Of course, manufacturing of the Heavy Duty and Outdoorsman ended with the beginning of World War II, however production resumed in 1946 with approximately 2,500 of each being produced, until they became the Model of 1950. The old long action disappeared with the new models which became the Models 20 and 23 respectively in 1957, when all Smith & Wessons lost their wonderful names and became numbers. Both models were removed from production in 1966.
In Major D.B. Wesson's 1932 book called Burning Powder, we have one of the first reports on the then new .38/44s.
This particular section was written by US Navy Captain James Baldwin: "For over a quarter of a century there has been a demand for a handgun of unusual abilities, one which at 100, 200 or even 500 yards could, if necessary, in lieu of a rifle being handy, down a large animal, or be used to kill such an animal at close quarters, when the rifle had failed to kill at long ranges. It was also demanded that this handgun be a target gun of unusual accuracy and also one for personal protection, and even if heavy, so perfectly balanced that its weight would not be felt above that of a gun used solely as a protective weapon, and carried in the waistband or holster."
I don't know about using the .38/44 on large animals at any range!
Long action and short action compared.
This old .38/44 still shoots very well.
Heavy Loading
Elmer Keith really pushed the envelope with the .38 Special in the .38/44 Heavy Duty. He said he used what powders were available at the time, which weren't very many, and settled on #80, which has been out of production for 70-plus years now. He used 10 grs. and shot hundreds of loads, then moved up to 11 grs., and while he said it worked well in both the .38/44 and the Colt SAA .38 Special, he decided to have it pressure tested. Sending them off to Peters Cartridge Company he found they were operating at 42,000 pounds pressure! Is that scary or what? The later .357 and .44 Magnums operate at much lower pressures than this!
A S&W 38/44 Outdoorsman and Heavy Duty. Note the adjustable sights on the Outdoorsman.
Original Loads
To duplicate the original .38/44 factory load I use the Keith bullet (Lyman #358429) over 11.0 grs. of #2400 for just over 1,100 fps. I also like the lighter RCBS #38-150KT (about 155 grs.) and the Lyman/Thompson #358156 gas-checked bullet all over this same powder charge. There was a time in my younger years when I had to load everything to the hilt. Today I can't see any real reason to go over 12.5 grs. of #2400 for use in .38/44 loads except when crimping in the bottom crimp groove of Lyman's #358156GC, I then use 13.5-gr. #2400. I have used the heavier load in heavy-framed .38s and still use it occasionally. It is for use only in .38/44 sixguns, but it's best to use it only in .357 Magnum sixguns. For most of my .38/44 loads I prefer 12.0 to 12.5 grs. of 4227. It is mild shooting and accurate, extremely so with the RCBS #38-150KT.
The .38/44 was a great step forward, both in the two models of Smith & Wesson sixguns and the accompanying ammunition. Not only, as Captain Baldwin said, did it fulfill the need for a heavy-duty sixgun capable of target accuracy, long-range accuracy and self defense, it set the stage for the arrival of the first Magnum 5 years later.

Officers and local dignitaries from University Healthcare officially opened a new medical facility in Charles Town that houses urgent care, orthopedics and sports medicine Jan. 3.
The facility also houses Jefferson Physical Therapy, a department of Jefferson Medical Center, formerly Jefferson Memorial Hospital.
"There will be three or four physicians covering different shifts in the building," Dr. George Harris, chairman of family medicine, said.
Harris said the full-service urgent care includes X-rays and laboratory services.
"Patients coming through and seen by any of our clinics should know that all patient records are in the same system," said Aaron Henry, a physician with University Healthcare Physicians. "For instance, a patient coming in to the clinic with a sore throat will have his or her medical records on file if they visited us previously."
Harris said that kind of uniformity is a big advantage throughout the UHP system.
"This new facility puts a place in the Charles Town community so individuals don't have to go to the emergency room for non-emergency care," Harris said. "We have the ability not only to handle acute care but have a relationship with an orthopedic surgeon especially with sports medicine when there is a need for rehabilitation, all under the same roof.
"It's convenient health care in a timely fashion."
Ground was broken for the new medical office building in May 2013.
The architect was Design Concepts and the builder was Howard Shockey and Sons of Winchester, Va.
It is run by University Healthcare Physicians, or UHP, a West Virginia University Hospital affiliate.
"This beautiful medical building and the talented professionals that work here are the direct result of the WVU School of Medicine working together with our University Healthcare hospital partners to improve the health of Eastern Panhandle West Virginia," said UHP Chief Executive Officer Konrad Nau said. "We hope everyone shares our pride in this facility, and what it means to our community."
The urgent care office is open Monday through Saturday 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sundays from noon to 8 p.m. It is a walk-in clinic, so appointments aren't required, and most insurance plans are accepted.
In Jefferson County, UHP also has a maternity and women's health facility in Ranson, as well as a flagship family medicine facility in Harpers Ferry.

A learning management system built for the unique needs of K-12 school districts
Because photocopies in the backpack, free apps and public social media all have their shortcomings
Edsby keeps everyone in the loop & engaged
Students see their schedules and assignments. They interact in a familiar Facebook-like system, safe from the public Internet. Parents see their kids' homework and grades. Teachers get course planning, attendance and assessment tools. Administrators receive school-wide analytics. Everyone gets what they need in real time.
Edsby makes teachers' lives easier
Because it connects to existing systems, classes in Edsby are pre-loaded with the right students and parents automatically. Attendance becomes a breeze, with no setup. And advanced grade book, course planning, parent communication and other features save teachers time. And, we've specifically made it easy for teachers to learn.
Edsby lets districts enforce policies
Local policies drive regional educational standards. Edsby gives districts a way to have things all done the same way. Yet because every region does things a little differently from the next, Edsby is completely customizable, even to districts' unique grading and reporting.
Edsby keeps districts compliant
Teachers that use free software and public social media in their classes can run afoul of CIPPA, COPPA, FERPA and other regulations. Edsby gives districts a single, protected "walled garden" for all communications between students, teachers and parents, so that confidential information stays protected.

Correction Appended
Nine months after the attacks on the World Trade Center forced the staff of The Wall Street Journal to flee its nearby offices, the paper's executives say the former newsroom is ready to reopen. But many of the reporters and editors say they are afraid to go home.
Yesterday, in a last-ditch effort to dissuade the Journal's management, a group of reporters and editors presented the paper's managing editor, Paul E. Steiger, with the results of an employee survey indicating that a large majority of the news department opposed a return to the World Financial Center. Of the 175 reporters and editors responding, 126, or 72 percent, wanted The Journal to find permanent space elsewhere.
The debate over the psychological and health effects of returning to the site of the World Trade Center's collapse has raged for months within The Journal's newsroom.
The murder of Journal reporter Daniel Pearl in Karachi, Pakistan, earlier this year only added to the feelings of anxiety.
The reporters' unusual survey of the reactions of their colleagues also provided a rare, vivid portrait of the feelings of employees at many other companies weighing similar decisions.Continue reading the main story
''What I hope is that the survey shows to the top managers just how scared many people are and leads them to rethink things,'' said Gardiner Harris, a reporter who is the newsroom director for the union. Mr. Harris said the union was not involved in the survey, in part so management-level editors could be included.
(Copy editors, who have been permanently relocated to New Jersey were not included, and almost no one who works on the editorial page responded.)
The most common anxiety expressed by the staff was the uncertainty over lingering health hazards. ''We don't have a clue about what the real health issues are,'' one respondent wrote, according to a copy of the survey results obtained by The New York Times. ''Why is Dow Jones making us guinea pigs?''
Seventy-seven percent of those opposed to the move feared health hazards either inside the office or from sites nearby.
Another 36 percent cited traumatic memories of the collapse of the World Trade Center.
''This was the site from which I ran for my life on Sept. 11,'' another respondent noted. ''I don't want to go back there every day.''
Steven Goldstein, a spokesman for Dow Jones & Company, which owns The Wall Street Journal, said that although the company appreciated the feedback, its management was neither surprised nor persuaded by the results.
He said the company has paid to conduct its own tests of air quality to ensure that it is safe, and that top executives planned to return as well.
''We will try to provide counseling for people who need and want it,'' Mr. Goldstein said. ''But ultimately we are going back to the World Financial Center and we will be moved in by the end of July.''
He added: ''We were founded downtown in 1889 and we are going to remain downtown.''
Dow Jones will resume paying rent to its downtown landlord, Brookfield Financial Properties, in late July in any event, he said. The lease expires in 2005.
Twenty percent of the responses favored a return, mainly because of the convenience of the location or the symbolism of coming back.
One employee temporarily relocated to New Jersey responded: ''I'll wear a gas mask to work at the W.F.C. if it means the end of spending my life on the train, in shuttle buses and the Jersey Turnpike.''
Another wrote: ''I want my desk back, exactly as it was.''
In interviews yesterday, however, several reporters said some recent reversals in the company's position had undermined its credibility. On May 9, the company notified its employees that the office space met air safety tests and reconstruction was about to begin. Then, on May 21, the company told employees that construction had halted because overlooked pockets of asbestos had turned up inside the building's ducts. Finally, on June 3, Dow Jones once again told its employees that all asbestos was removed and the construction was resuming.
Mr. Goldstein defended the changing updates as a sign of the determination of Dow Jones to ensure the building is safe, but reporters said the reversals seemed sloppy.
''That shook the confidence of some people around here,'' said Carlos Tejada, a Journal reporter who is researching and tracking the company's safety efforts on behalf of the staff. He has sent critical assessments of its progress to the staff.
The union is also paying to conduct its own tests.
Joe Dizney, The Journal's design director, said: ''The big problem is not going to be in the office. The big problem is going to be the surrounding area and there is no way around that.''
He added, ''The prevailing winds, thank God, are from the west to the east, and we are on the water side.''
Correction: June 19, 2002, Wednesday Because of an editing error, an article in Business Day yesterday about a segment of the Wall Street Journal staff that opposes a return to the paper's office near ground zero omitted the name of the union whose newsroom director commented on the findings of a survey. It is the Independent Association of Publishers' Employees, part of the Communications Workers of America.Continue reading the main story

The Big Reunion: Adam Rickitt puts an end to gay rumours
EX-CORRIE hunk Adam Rickitt has scotched rumours he is gay.
The soap star, 35, was the centre of gossip about his sexuality after he quit The Street to launch a pop career in 1999.
He often appeared topless in gay mags flashing his sixpack and performed at gay clubs.
"If I was I would say 'Screw you, I'm gay. What you gonna do about it?"Adam Rickitt
And fans even nicknamed him "Madam Rickitt".
But in The Big Reunion tonight on ITV2 at 10pm, Adam, who is now one of boyband 5th Story, says: "I'm very comfortable about my sexuality and can flirt the arse off with gay men. But I'm not gay.
"If I was I would say 'Screw you, I'm gay. What you gonna do about it?'"

Continuing a fine U.S. Open Cup run which has surely frustrated and delighted Jason Kreis in equal measure, Real Salt Lake faces yet another side from the lower leagues in the form of Carolina Railhawks on Wednesday at Rio Tinto Stadium. With both preceding matches in this run-up having taken 120 minutes to run their course, Kreis will be looking to ensure his side wins in regulation.
But how can it be done? It's simple, really. Stretch the play but don't get stretched yourself. And insofar as it is simple, it is also a difficult task, and one which requires a concerted effort to really pull together in a cohesive manner, as it invariably involves a slew of moving parts.
Let's start with some base-level assumptions: Carolina Railhawks will come in looking to win. That's an easy one. Perhaps the most tried-and-true method — and one that has nearly felled us twice in this competition this season alone — is to leave defenders and midfielders in retreated positions while one or (if they're feeling adventurous) two attackers attempt to capitalize on gaps in the defense. Let's operate under this assumption, as it seems the most likely.
The first question that must be answered: How can Real Salt Lake avoid getting caught in possession? The chances will likely spawn from Railhawks clearances or long passes from the defensive third, and they'll probably come after a good chance for an RSL attacker is scuppered at the last minute. It's when we'll be most eager to win the ball back (and naturally so) and we're more likely to commit somebody forward in search of regaining possession. And why not? Their defenders will almost certainly be on the back leg. But this creates a difficult scenario: If one or two players commit errors, the odds of a goal against skyrocket. If Carlos Salcedo or Nat Borchers makes an error there, the ball is free for the taking and even a moderately quick striker will be in on goal in no time. It's easy to simply say something like "Just don't make mistakes, boys," and hope that it works, but we all know (I would hope) that it's not so simple.
One solution, then: When the ball is lost in a good attacking area, retain confidence that you will soon be creating another and allow the opposition a little bit of harmless possession before regaining the ball; instead of pressing even harder than before, drop into more reasonable positions such that the defense is better supported. It's an exercise in prudence, and it's one we have sometimes suffered from. It's a difficult ask when you're among the best in the league at what you do — press hard in the midfield, gain possession, and create chances when the opposition isn't quite ready.
So now that we've quite obviously solved that unenviable task (sarcasm included for free here), let's move on to the other difficult question to answer: How can Real Salt Lake score goals without intense pressure in the attacking third to force errors? When the midfield and defense merge into one gelatinous (but remarkably solid) blob, the metaphorical parking of the bus makes goal creation intensely difficult.
The answer is simple, but the execution is certainly less so. The strikers, who are more likely to be attracting the attention of the central defenders, should be trading moments of stretching play laterally, drawing defenders wide or forcing a zonal shift. The former option allows more runs into the middle from midfielders; the latter allows unprotected full backs to get into play more readily. With one striker remaining in a central position and the other wide, a late run from anyone deeper than Javier Morales could lead to a tantalizing opportunity.

Chips in Space: Just the FAQs Maam

It's a lot of fun telling the tale about ARISSat-1. So, when we were offered a table at the Microchip MASTERs Conference, we accepted the invitation with enthusiasm. For the conference, we shipped in our fully functional demonstration satellite from the East Coast to Northern Phoenix and put it on display.
Its a lot of fun telling the tale about ARISSat-1. So, when we were offered a table at the Microchip MASTERs Conference, we accepted the invitation with enthusiasm. For the conference, we shipped in our fully functional demonstration satellite from the East Coast to Northern Phoenix and put it on display. This not only allowed attendees to see what ARISSat-1 looks like up close, but also get to hear it in action. With more than 600 engineers in attendance, there was ample opportunity to answer questions and queries (we tended to draw a crowd during class breaks and evening events).
Steve Bible (N7HPR) on left and Tim Moffat on right talk about ARISSat-1 to Microchip MASTERs attendees.
Following MASTERs, an observation was made; it was very interesting to note the kinds of questions engineers would ask. So that spawned the idea for this post. What are the most frequently asked questions that engineers ask? Maybe they are the same questions you have
An often asked question was, Is this the same as the one in flight? The answer is yes. In the photo above, you can see the fully functional demonstration ARISSat-1 satellite in the lower right. I like to call this one Number 4. Thats because there were four space frames machined to create the two satellites that were shipped to Russia: Number 1 for flight and number 2 for backup flight. Units 3 and 4 are here in the States, and number 4 was specifically constructed for show demonstrations. But it is much more than a static display; it has working Internal Housekeeping Unit (IHU) and radio systems, and transmits the same greetings from space, spoken telemetry, BPSK telemetry and transponder as the flight unit (see Post #5 for more details on these systems). We had radios available so attendees could hear the greetings from space and also see the telemetry program, ARISSatTLM, decoding telemetry.
ARISSat-1 Flight Unit #1 on left and Backup Flight #2 on right, ready for crating and shipping to Russia.
There is one major difference; there are Lexan covers in place of the solar panels. This is because we only received eight panels from NASA. In the photo above you can see units 1 and 2, ready for crating. Notice number 1 on the left has solar panels, and unit 2 on the right has Lexan covers. The Lexan covers allow people to peer inside the craft. Which led to another often asked question, Why is there so much room inside? There are two reasons. One, it is because ARISSat-1 was to be SuitSat-2, and inside the space frame are the boxes we originally meant to go inside the Orlan space suit. Two, the solar panels dictated the size of the space frame. The satellite measures roughly 21 by 21 by 11 inches, and weighs in at a little over 50 pounds (this was another question we heard a lot).
How did you get it into space? To answer this, I would explain that ARISSat-1 was a project of ARISSAmateur Radio on the International Space Station. ARISS is international in scope, and the team coordinates locally with their respective space agencies. For ARISSat-1, ARISS worked with the Russian Federal Space Agency (Roscomos) and Energia Corporation to upmass ARISSat-1 to the International Space Station, and deploy it during a Russian EVA.
How was it deployed from the Space Station? People found it amazing that ARISSat-1 was hand carried outside of the ISS and pushed away from the space station. I guess because everyone associates satellites with rockets.
ARISSat-1 was deployed by hand from the International Space Station
How many microcontrollers in the satellite? and What Microchip products did you use? The count is:
Software Defined Transponder (SDX): PIC32MX and MCP6001 (x2)
Internal Housekeeping Unit (IHU): PIC32MX
Power Supply Unit (PSU): PIC16F887, PIC16F690, MCP1525
Solar Max Power Point Converter (MPPT): PIC16F690 (x6), MCP1407 (x6)
Were the components radiation hardened? No, they were not. They are plain old off-the-shelf components. Most components are industrial-grade-temperature rated. As of this writing, ARISSat-1 has been operating in space for more than five weeks. With the exception of the battery failing open after eight days, the satellite has been operating nominally. It will be interesting to see how long ARISSat-1 will be operational with plain old off-the-shelf components.
How long will it last in space? Since ARISSat-1 was deployed down and away from the International Space Station, this placed it into a very low-Earth orbit. One that is decaying; i.e., ARISSat-1 is getting closer to Earth with every orbit. We estimate that, in about seven months (give or take) ARISSat-1, will reenter the atmosphere and burn up. Sometime before that, the satellite will heat up from friction with the atmosphere, and the electronics will fail at some point from excess heat. AMSAT is sponsoring a Chicken Little Contest if you feel so inclined to participate!
As you can see, the questions were interesting in that one can see engineers love asking technical questions. So, you are in for a real treat in next weeks blog post, as we cover some of the teams lessons learned.
Oh yeah, in October well be crating and shipping the ARISSat-1 demonstration satellite to San Jose, California for the AMSAT Space Symposium, which takes place November 4-6, 2011. If you stop by, you can see the satellite, listen to the talks, and meet many of the volunteers who made ARISSat-1 happen.
Until next week

Release Date: 2006 |
Japanese Power Metal? Great review and hope to find this on myspace.
Digging: Vreid - I Krig
Album Rating: 4.5First review in almost 6 months, omg!!!!
Guessing this won't get much attention due to the 10+ reviews today, oh well.
Balls to the Wall: No myspace unfortunantly. But it's the best thing to come out of Japan since X Japan.This Message Edited On 09.25.07
Album Rating: 4.5Also, Galneryus just released an album a couple weeks ago, but I haven't listened to it yet. I'll get it eventually.
Im a fan of the whole asian thing except for j rock. Chthonic, Dir en grey, Sigh so sounds good but never heard of japan x.
Album Rating: 4.5Just type in "X Japan" in the search box up top. They're considered the "Metallica of Japan" by some (except they never sucked at some point).
Their myspace: http://www.myspace.com/xjapan1997This Message Edited On 09.25.07
Actually this band has myspaces. Im not sure if any is official but im listening to my last farewell right now.
Album Rating: 4.5I guess they do lol. I added a URL to their (?) myspace at the bottom of the review for anyone interested. (I added the most official looking one.)
He's a fantastic guitar player, but I still haven't gotten into the band.
The Japs do everything better so im definatly gonna check this out.
Good review, my pos vote.
The only japanese band I like is Sigh, because they're awesome.
Album Rating: 4.0Bout damn time someone reviewed Galneryus!
haha, I couldve done this but I'm not really good with words.
A little cheesy, and similar sounding riffs, but it's goodThis Message Edited On 09.26.07This Message Edited On 09.26.07
Album Rating: 4.0Glad I happened on this review, this is a power metal album worth checking out. I guess since it's Japanese power metal you're supposed to drink sake with all the delicious cheese this album offers up (Euro power metal gets wine with its cheese). Only this time instead of being the perfect metal to vanquish dark lords or slay the bleeding dragon, it sounds more like a good soundtrack to battle supervillains by.
Album Rating: 4.0"[-]Non-existent bass"
Really? I have to disagree completely. I think the bass is quite pronounced. The song Raid Again have awesome bass.
Bands: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

Top Ten Sex-Related Affairs in China During 2006 – Tianya
From Tianya, translated by ESWN:
Compared to the popularity of the Super Girl contest last year, this year's contest is more sedate. Beneath this calmness, there is a more brutal competition as the temptation of overnight fame led the young girls and even their parents to resort to all sorts of chicanery. There was the so-called 'exposure scandal' (note: in which contestant Sun Yixin yanked up her skirt to expose her white panties). The event even drew the attention of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT), although nothing came out it. From another perspective, the need to reveal the body in order to attract eyeballs signify the demise of the Super Girl program.
Actually Zhang Ziyi had already appeared to have gone nude in
. So what is the big deal about an actress engaged in passion, especially since only a bare back was revealed? Many multi-million Hollywood actresses have gone nude on film. We can only say that since Zhang Ziyi is famous, she is acting haughty and even a bare-backed scene required a body double. As for the body double Shao Xiaoshan, she found a connection with Zhang Ziyi and she decided it would be a shame not to hype this up. As long as the term "nude" is involved, there is some value, whether it is bare back or chest.[Full Text]

Quick Silver Messenger Service may have been to Chester
Quicksilver Messenger Service may have been to one of those lutefisk dinners before they sang, "Have Another Hit of Freshhhhhhhhhhh Air". This Sunday, there's a lutefish and swedish meatball dinner going on at Our Saviors Lutheran Church in Chester. Everyone along the Hi Line is invited and the oh-so-sweet aroma will be wafting from the church Sunday from 11:30 until 2. I'm the Puffman and I say, "hold the lutefish, I'll take another helping of the swedish meatballs!" By the way, did you know that the name "Puffer" is a Swedish name, and while you won't find many "Puffers" out here in these parts, there's a ton of them in Minnesota and Illinois. See you Sunday for some good food and fellowship at Our Saviors Luthern.
