Step 1: Concept
Step 2: Materials
1" threaded pvc cap
There is also the idea of gyroscopic stabilization. An experimental US firearm called the gyro-jet tested in the early '60s was actually a handgun that fired miniature rockets instead of bullets. The exhaust from the rockets was precisely angled to make the rocket spin like a football (American). This method would be much harder as it requires precise machinery and mathematical calculations, but kudos to any of you out there who can make it yourselves!
The pistol & rifle were novelties, but at US$2.00 for each, were not popular.
I'm sure that making the missiles just a bit longer with some weight at the top - 'arrow-styled' - will make them a lot more stable.
Mosquito's will think twice next time before passing your window... ;-)
Or like Madrais said, angle the fins as such to give it spin
The term your looking for is "Pop rivet gun" :-)
I want to try this but make a little "pop" at the end since it already blasts forward for what is suppose to be the parachute eject.
1. i had this idea with PVC when in the 5th but i thought of using a fireworks rocket and PVC.
2. you could make this system breech-loading by shrinking the size of the rocket and putting it in a tube that fits into the launch tube. this would also prevent loose contacts and prevent the rocket from falling out.
3. regarding the build up that needs to be cleaned, you could make a ramrod style device for pushing the rocket in and later cleaning the tube.
4. you could put small flaps on the side of the rocket which are pressed flat to the body. when the rocket is fired the flaps will open with the wind and spin stabilize the rocket.
5. you could take a funnel, chop of the spout and fit to the front of the luancher, then it would prevent the singing.
Another question:
Will this design be useful when the impending Zombie Apocalypse arrives? I want to be prepared when the time comes!
add barrel shroud,
bayonet lug,
other "CA evil features"
and i see barrel is shorter than 16in
I also think cleaning it between shots would create a tactical problem
especially if trying to use some thing similar in paintball or something
your camraman(women) was kinda slow
and to fix the build-up in the back try using an open end cap with only a small lip

Selective memory is a trait that distinguishes Liberals from everyone else.
I'm not going to list Liberals who voted for the Iraq War because of intelligence gathered by every country about Saddam's WMD's, and then
erased those thoughts from their speeches when
it was convenient to blame GW Bush for acting on that intetlligence.
It was his responsibility to protect the United States and he didn't do it by shrinking from his responsibility like Obama.
Of course Saddam had WMD's. He had used them on his own people and it was reasonable that he still had them.
Veroman: Your comments deserve more attention because of your venom and desire to change the subject like Obama.
Your ridiculous statement follows:
"i see fox is still trying to inflate and conflate the libya attack with watergate. what a fantastical sick thing to do before the investigations into a terrible tragedy are fully known. and then this line of attack on how the world must stand still and the potus be in the situation room every time an event happens somewhere on the planet. 'merrily' on his way... get real. you have no idea whatsoever what the day in the life of a potus is obviously. and you never will."
You have no idea, which makes no difference to you, but you have no idea what I know about a day in the life of a POTUS.
Your media could find out every detail about Tiger Woods and his wife, and send a multitude of reporters and lawyers to investigate Sarah Palin, but if it were not for FOX, we wouldn't hear about the shennanigans of Obama and the gang that can't shoot straight.
This wasn't an event that happened somewhere on the planet and he attached more importance to going to Las Vegas the next day than making a decision on the tragedy.
The father of the Navy Seal described meeting Obama and Hillary who showed up for the photo op when the bodies were brought home, and said that they seemed terribly insincere.
He said that while talking to Obama, Obama was looking past him over his shoulder, rather than into his eyes.
This wasn't an event----it was an attack on the United States with an Ambassador dying, and responsible people don't dismiss it so casually.

Tom Cleverley is a highly-rated young midfielder who has made giant strides towards establishing himself as a regular for both club and country.
The Basingstoke-born youngster rose through Manchester United's youth system to become interim Reserves captain, and was nominated for the prestigious Denzil Haroun Reserve Player of the Year award in 2007/08.
Following successful loan spells at Leicester, Watford (he won the club's Player of the Year award in 2009/10) and Wigan Athletic, Tom made his United debut in August 2011 and was soon a feature of the Reds' exciting start to the season. But
a serious foot injury sustained at Bolton kept him out until October and a further setback sidelined him until February. He was then used sparingly in the run-in and ended the campaign having made 15 first-team appearances.
He performed admirably for Great Britain at the 2012 summer Olympics, showing glimpses of the sort of form he would go on to produce for United in the 2012/13 campaign. Capped by England for the first time just before the start of the league season, Cleverley quickly established himself as one of Sir Alex Ferguson's key central midfielders.

eBay's CEO, John Donahoe, believes that digital payments should account for a lot more of the global payments market than they currently do.
One of the big ways he's trying to make that happen is by ensuring his PayPal subsidiary grows its volume in the most promising digital payments space -- mobile. On that front, it appears he's making good progress as quietly, mobile payments have become a multi-billion dollar business for PayPal.
That, for obvious reasons, is probably not what bank executives want to hear. So it's no surprise that banks and other traditional players in the finance and payments markets are getting involved in the most promising digital payments space.

In late 2009, PayPal president John Donahoe indicated that he believed online payments should account for 20% of global payments, even though, at the time, they accounted for just 5%. His goal: find ways to grow that number.
There are a lot of ways of doing that, but none may be as promising as mobile payments.

Mobile payments can be so much more than just paying for your coffee and paper on the way into work.

If there's one thing major mobile carriers don't like to do, it's work together. But that appears to be what they're doing in the mobile payment space. Considering how tight the market is, that's a move credit card companies might not be too happy about. Because while credit card companies may need carriers to get into mobile payments, they may also soon learn those same carriers don't need them.

Twitter founder Jack Dorsey is getting a lot of attention for his latest venture. Square, his mobile payments platform, is already the darling of the startup world. The company was valued at $40 million before it even launched.

Companies large and small have been getting into mobile this year. And one market that looks particularly promising is the mobile payment space. Considering that everyone from Twitter founder Jack Dorsey is interested in making a mark on mobile payments, it's curious that no major credit card company has debutted a product yet.
That's changing with Visa's new In2Pay protective iPhone case. The iPhone sleeve turns Apple's smartphone into a credit card machine. Considering Visa's established dominance in the payment space, this product could help position the company in mobile. But it does not eclipse the fact that there is still a big space for innovation if someone can do it all cheaper.

It wasn't a conventional route to a series victory for a top-seeded team. Maybe that made it a little sweeter.
Miami University's hockey team suffered a stunning 3-0 loss to last-place Michigan State on Friday, then rallied for back-to-back 4-1 triumphs to wrap up the Central Collegiate Hockey Association quarterfinal series at Steve Cady Arena.
Freshman Sean Kuraly scored twice in the first multi-goal effort of his collegiate career in Sunday's finale, which included goals from Kevin Morris and Austin Czarnik.
"I think we've been in the right mind-set since the beginning of the season," said Morris, a freshman forward. "It's been a process, and we've stuck to that process. Now we're looking forward to Michigan."
The RedHawks (24-10-5) will face the Wolverines (17-18-3) in the semifinals Saturday at Joe Louis Arena in Detroit. Puck drop will be at 4:35 p.m.
They met in October in Ann Arbor. Michigan won 4-2 on Friday, and MU won 4-3 on Saturday. The Wolverines are aiming for their record 23rd consecutive NCAA appearance.
"Maybe all the staffs were doing this, but we were just waiting for them to explode," Miami coach Enrico Blasi said of Michigan, which is 7-0-1 with 34 goals in its last eight games. "They're a talented team and well-coached. It'll be a great challenge for us in basically their home building and should be a lot of fun.
"We've played Michigan at the Joe a few times, and it's quite a scene. We haven't played them in a while, so they're a different team now, and we're a different team."
Blasi praised his seniors for earning their fourth straight trip to the Joe.
"This is the first senior class to go four years in a row, and it's not an easy place to get to," Blasi said. "That's quite an accomplishment and a feather in their cap. To be one of the four teams left in the final season at Joe Louis I think is pretty special."
The RedHawks didn't have an easy time with Michigan State (14-25-3), yet notched eight of the last nine goals in the series.
Morris got the ball rolling Sunday with a goal in the first five minutes. It was shorthanded and unique.
MSU goalie Jake Hildebrand came out of the goal to retrieve the puck and tried to send it behind the net, but his errant attempt resulted in the puck hitting the goal. Morris was there and happy to see an empty net.
"First goals are huge in games like this," Morris said. "I think it's really important to get the crowd and your own team into it. Luckily, the goalie kind of served up a pizza for me, so that was nice.
"It was kind of a gimme," he added of his seventh goal of the season. "I think (Hildebrand's) D went back, and he kind of panicked a little bit and gave me a Gretzky pass off the side of the net, so I was just able to tap it home. It was a little lucky, but I'll take it."
Kuraly made it 2-0 late in the opening period, but the Spartans fought back with a Matt DeBlouw goal 6:46 into the second stanza. That was a 5-on-3 conversion, and Miami had to wiggle out of another 5-on-3 situation immediately thereafter.
The middle period was a difficult time for MU, which got hit with five two-minute penalties (Michigan State had one).
"We killed some key penalties in the key part of the game," RedHawks goalie Ryan McKay said. "To not allow them to get that second goal was probably the biggest part of the game."
"That just gives you so much energy for the next 10 minutes," Blasi said of his squad's penalty killing. "It's just a big momentum shifter and gave our guys a lot of life, a lot of energy. I thought our guys did a pretty good job with it and staying composed and not trying to do too much.
"We didn't force pucks. We kept putting pucks behind their D, which is one of the things that we wanted to do, and the guys were into it. They were ready to take on the challenge because we knew they were going to start to push, and they did. We blocked some shots and made some good plays."
Kuraly deflated Michigan State with his power-play goal midway through the third period, and Czarnik added an empty-netter in the last minute.
Kuraly was happy to dent the scoring column for the first time since Dec. 7.
"When you're in a little bit of a scoring slump, the first couple are going to be ugly, so I've been trying to tell myself the past couple weeks to just get to the front of the net," said Kuraly, who earned his second Miami warrior shield of the season. "That's where you score goals. Confidence is something you can throw around a lot, but scoring goals is just something you've got to pay a price to do, and getting to the front of the net is how you do that.
"When you get in third periods and know how much work you've put in all year, it's something you don't want to let slip away."
Hildebrand had nine saves in the first period for MSU. Will Yanakeff finished in net for the visitors and made 22 stops.
For the RedHawks, McKay showed no signs of fatigue in his third consecutive night between the pipes. He totaled 18 saves.
"To be honest, I felt like I took care of my body all weekend," McKay said. "It allowed me to stay fresh for the third period."
Tanner Sorenson and Matt Berry registered assists for the Spartans, who upset Alaska on the road last weekend and made a solid showing in the postseason.
"We asked the guys to empty the tank, and I thought we did," Michigan State coach Tom Anastos said. "I thought we gave every ounce of energy we had. I thought we played with tons of heart, tons of toughness, and the game came down to specialty-team situations and they won it.
"The results stink. They hurt. But there were a lot of things that came out in the whole playoff run that we can build on. This is not an easy place to come to under normal circumstances. I thought we went nose to nose, toe to toe, from the start of the series to the end of the series. I was real proud of our guys."
Steven Spinell picked up two assists for Miami. Alex Gacek, Cody Murphy and Marc Hagel chipped in one apiece.
As demoralizing as Friday's loss was, Blasi said it may have been a good thing for his troops.
"I'm a big believer that everything happens for a reason," the MU coach said. "As I said Friday night on my way out of here, this happened for a reason. I'm not sure what it is — sometimes you're not privileged to those reasons — and it turns out that it helped us a lot.
"It helped us intensify our commitment to the team, to each other, to the type of game that we want to play. From here on in, it's a one-game shot. We know we're going to play after next weekend, but we want to make sure that we're ready to go come Saturday."

The first thing that comes to my mind are commercial net fishermen. Sorry, somebody has to say it.
Tonight there is a meeting at 7pm in the Board Room of the Administration Building near the New Kent Court House. The meeting is with the Upper River Waterman's Association, VMRC, VDGIF and local fisherman. It is to discuss the decline of herring and possible regulations which may be placed on them.
The first thing that comes to my mind are predator fish such as large catfish and striped bass.
The first thing that comes to my mind are commercial net fishermen. Sorry, somebody has to say it.
Could very well be overfishing by commercial boys. Could be spawning problems... ???
Herring in NC are so scarce, they won't let you keep any. If you use them for bait in NC, you better have a receipt showing where you bought them. I know I have noticed a huge decline in Herring in the James and Chick during the last 20 years. Hope they can figure out why and we can all pitch in and help get that fishery back on target.
I guess the thousands and thousands of pounds of herring taken with pound net bellow the dam year after year did not have any thing to do with it. Most of the commercial guys want to blame the problem on any thing other than there self for what they have done.
Some of the scientists beleave that the Bay of Fundy is the source of the decline in spawning herring.
The studies show that most herring go there at one time in there life. The fact that they have poor recruitment coupled with netters/prey and pollution does not give them a chance in our future. Unless some changes are made.
Capt Mike
I couldn't make it to the meeting, but was wondering what type of showing was there? What did they talk about or figure out?
what comes to mind next is a back door reason for selling large catfish (help the herring) talked to Greenlee and they are also trying to get the VMRC to regulate the tidal catfish instead of the VDGIF...which u know what that would mean.....
how does someone detect a decline in herring? Aren't they too small to get caught in gill nets?

Top 5 Tango Spots of Argentina
- Confiteria Ideal: Be charmed by the grand building, old waiters, genuine tango classes and shows that this Buenos Aires institution has been producing for more than 100 years. It might be a bit rough around the edges but authenticity is guaranteed in this historic gem.
- Barrancas de Belgrano: On the weekends, head to this leafy park at dusk to see unpretentious locals tango as the sun sets. Try out your tango steps, mix and mingle with Argentines and tourists, and enjoy the casual, fun vibe that proliferates under the park's gazebo.
- Plaza Dorrego: This relaxed San Telmo favourite is a top spot for alfresco people-watching, tango viewing, wine drinking and socialising.
- La Catedral: For a slice of old Argentina, head to this bewitching warehouse of kitsch where you can learn the art of tango with locals amid walls of old posters and a giant glowing, red heart. Lessons are taught in Spanish and while the dancers here may not be technically great, their passion and love of tango is unquestionable.
- Caminito: Purists may dismiss La Boca's showy street performers as 'tacky tangoists' but the colourful streets, flamboyant moves and suave outfits do have a bit of flair and provide quintessential Buenos Aires photo ops.

MVP Lacrosse Tournament
Recruiting: How to Create Your Target List of Colleges
Find the colleges that are the best fit for you by considering the most important aspects that go into your college experience, including college basics, academic, admissions, athletics and social life.
MVP Lacrosse Announces 2014 Summer Tournaments
SKILLMAN, N.J. — Jim Stagnitta, founder of MVP Lacrosse announced the dates of the 2014 MVP summer exposure events. Now in its 10th year, these highly anticipated MVP college lacrosse exposure events draw the top high school and club team players from around the region and are seen by upwards of 120 college coaches per weekend.
MVP Lacrosse Tournament: Day 3
The last in a series of three blogs from the MVP Lacrosse Tournament. Read the intro here and recaps of Days 1-2 here.
TRI-STATE BLACK vs. MARYLAND LACROSSE CLUB
I wasn't going to get to see a rematch of Tri-State and the Crabs, but was excited to see how the Jersey boys would perform against their second Maryland foe of the weekend in the Blue Division Semi-Final. For the first time at the tournament I saw a team (MLC) that compared in physical stature to the Tri-State squad, and from the opening whistle the game's pace was set to overdrive.
MVP Lacrosse Tournament: Days 1-2
It took a while to get these posted since we had no Internet and no car, but here is the second of three blogs detailing my observations from the MVP Lacrosse Tournament.
Day 1 Game Recaps
ICON (CO) vs. COMPETITIVE EDGE (PA)
The first evening of intra-division play matched ICON Lacrosse against the traditionally strong Philadelphia-based Competitive Edge Lacrosse Club. I was immediately impressed by the cohesiveness of the Competitive Edge offensive unit – most hail from Radnor (PA) – who looked to be in sync from the opening whistle. Attackman Brendan Glynn (St. Joseph's Prep) took advantage of a great feed from Matt Cherry (Radnor) to put Competitive Edge on the board 3 minutes into the contest. Cole Yeager's (Radnor) domination at the face-off X helped Competitive Edge maintain possession through most of the first half, and Glynn capitalized on a second tally on a great individual effort from behind to take the count to 2-0 in favor of the Philly boys. ICON took a stand on back-to-back goals from Devin Arruabarrena (Fort Collins) and Taylor Young (Heritage) to tie the score at 2 apiece.
MVP Tournament Blog from Greg Bastis
By Greg Bastis
Whenever you spend the better part of two months planning a trip, there is a sense of impending doom in the final days leading up to departure. When planning your trip happens to involve 25 high school lacrosse players, three coaches, two flights, three bus services, a hotel, and a New Jersey state university, those final days are trying. Just ask my girlfriend. She hasn't slept for the better part of a week, thanks in large part to the "energy" I've been putting out in bed. No, not like that. The weekend of June 12 – 15 has been circled on my calendar since December, and with every passing day the stress becomes more and more apparent. The question always remains – "What have I missed?"

50 Warren at UMass Lowell Inn and Conference Center
Online Reservations
We were in town for an event and had dinner at the restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised from the moment we got there (polite host sat us through dinner. Our server was also very good and the food was delicious. If we're ever back in town, I'd come again for sure. Thanks.
It was our first visit to 50 Warren, and we were pleasantly surprised at the excellent quality of our dinners. A special request was honored and done well. We will certainly go there again.
We had the opportunity to experience 50 Warren for Easter Brunch. We loved it so much that we decided to visit again before visiting the Merrimack Repertory theatre. Although there are mixed reviews for dinner, our experience was terrific. We were greeted and led to our table immediately. Our server was friendly and very attentive. While the menu was not large, there was diversity in the food. Our dinners were cooked as requested and were very tasty. We will return
I took my mother to the Mothers Day brunch and we both ennoy the experience. The food was excellent and tbe service was very friendly. Would definitely return.
Friends had suggested we try 50 Warren at UMass Lowell Inn before our play at the MRT, which is very close to the restaurant. I have to say it was a very pleasant surprise! Due to graduations etc... we had the restaurant to ourselves for about 1/2 hour. OUr waitress was wonderful (attentive, but not over bearing). She was able to help us with a great bottle of wine. There were 4 of us and we shared 3 apps; all delicious (especailly the lobster fritters! yum). The food was perfect - just enough to allow desert. We all had steak - tips and ribeye steak - all very well prepared. Coffee and desert was wonderful - am looking forward to our next visit!
The food is very good, the area is spacious and scenic, the service is just right, attentive without interrupting conversations. My favorite restaurant in Lowell.
It was a beautiful night to dine on the patio. Very relaxing atmosphere. Food and service was wonderful and bartender made a great martini!
We were a large group (8) and we were served graciously and promptly. The food was excellent and plentiful. The prices were reasonable. I would definitely go back again.
Once again Opentable came through for us and introduced us to a restaurant which we likely would not have found on our own. 50 Warren is clearly not high-end, and not intended to be, but the food will compete with high-end fare. We were delighted to get a table outside, alongside the canal and lock, but be forewarned that there are few outside tables. Inside is rather plain, but the food would make up for it. And the prices are more than reasonable. While dining we were entertained by a three piece band, one of whom was Bo Winiker, a Boston jazz and big band legend. It was a delightful evening.
My friends and I had a get together for brunch outside on the patio. The ambiance and atmosphere was very calm and quiet. It was perfect. Our server Amy was very attentive and was one of the best servers I've had. Her sangria is AMAZING. Ask for Amy's sangria. I will DEFINITELY be coming back. Their steak tips were outstanding.
Had the pleasure of visiting 50 Warren during restaurant week. Our meals were delicious and the service was outstanding. We all had the fixed menu special, appetizer, entrée and dessert. We all chose the crab cakes for appetizer. Two tasty crab cakes served over mixed greens. The grilled sirloin was a large, perfectly grilled steak served with roasted vegetables. The cioppino was tasty and full of muscles, shrimp and scallops. Our party was very pleased with our experience.
This was our third visit to 50 Warren and was as good as the previous two visits. Our server, who was fairly new, was terrific -- friendly, personable, and attentive without being intrusive. She followed up on any questions that we had. The food is well prepared and beautifully presented. I was in the mood for a hamburger, which turned out to be made of sirloin. It was tasty and cooked perfectly (medium-well). One of my friends enjoyed the lobster roll, which contained a generous portion of lobster. We will be back multiple times!
This was our first dining experience here -- and in downtown Lowell. We needed a spot to join friends, have a light dinner, and get on to a 6:30 show nearby, and it worked. A top-drawer Caesar salad, both with and without grilled chicken; the clam chowder was the best in memory. But we didn't really challenge the chef or test the full menu. It's in a UMass inn and conference center, and it is basically an informal hotel dining room . . . or a very up-scale coffee shop with a dining-room menu. Good. We'll use it again when we do another show in the area.
In the end, this is a Hotel Resturant. Food and service were great but the atmosphere was not good - flat, dull, boring.

Has anyone even reproduced the TLB bug? Seriously. Best chance is to load all cores and have them virtualized. Even then, it probably will never happen.
agreed. Nor even a titanium asteroid is as solid as my phenom. But media and reviews killed the thing. It was a very underrated product. And AMD had to release the fixed version immediatly. That harmed AMD... so industry learnt anyway... media is to blame? they're just playing their card too...
I'm thinking they just want to get a few more revisions in before they commit to the platform that will be around a while. But yes, it could be a calculated decision against Bulldozer. They want to know how competitive it is so they know how high to set the clocks on the 2011 chips. 2011 is the enthusiast platform--it isn't going to "kill" 1155.
Well, I'll probably hold off until Ivy Bridge then, was planing an upgrade towards the end of the year, but I think my current rig will be enough until May 2012...

Going to let AMD put out the BD ( Big Disappointment ) then once that is out and AMD is showing off Intel crushes them with the launch of this Sandy Bridge-E killing AMD once again and giving us all a taste of what is to come Ivy bridge and 3D transistors !
Intel didn't rush anything when AMD64 came out. Oh well maybe they learnt that lesson. Seems that both companies are really precautious on any step they make now. Still anything can happen...
Nobody will be killing LGA1155. LGA2011 and LGA1155 will co-exist just like LGA1366 and LGA1156 co-existed.
Yeah they did: EM64T and Pentium 4 EE processors that you could cook a roast on. The delay could also be do to the weak economy and/or investor relations. Launching a major product when the economy is weak doesn't generate a very large spike in upgrade sales.
Because they didn't have anything at the time. Then they banked too heavily on Pentium D ignoring that AMD was already working on a monolithic dual-core chip.
This could mean time for AMD to catch up. This is going to be good... sorry for the troubled economy in that hemisphere. In this side we all are in a cronic economical crisis so we got used to it.
LOL good news just think 1 Jan 2011 they can start with 1cpu = 48core socket 2011, if not then they earned their usual nicknames. ROFL if only there was software Viagra for this Intel delays, maybe software can get Intel back up ROFL Sounds like the Apple IBM G6 fiasco and look where IBM Apple partnership ended up. I wonder how Intel will catch up to lame idiots like me with 240core 22400stream cores home office pc with their socket 2011. By 1 Jan 2011 I would likely need to upgrade again. Sorry Intel I have deserted you for Magny Cours.
this delay don't affect me at all as many of us who won't upgrade till not necessary i won't spend a cent till i can play the newest games
Is this a question ? I believe they claim to still be on track for Q3 2011 release, so no later than Sept. 30th 2011.

By Stephen Schramm Staff writer
PINEHURST - U.S. Golf Association executive director Mike Davis said he often gets asked about his organization's decision to hold its two biggest events on back-to-back weeks at the same course.
He said the next question is usually why it picked Pinehurst No. 2, which will have both the U.S. Open and the U.S. Women's Open next summer, as the place to do it.
"When we get through this season and (the 2014 U.S. Opens) are on the stage, we're going to get this question a lot," Davis said.
When Davis greeted the media at the course last week, he provided answers for both questions.
The idea of bringing the Opens to the same course on consecutive weeks had its roots in simple curiosity.
"When it boils right down to it, it's this intrigue we have in wanting to compare the best male golfers in the world with the best female golfers," Davis said.
Davis said early on, he thought the gap in skill between the genders was wide. But when he began planning the course conditions for the U.S. Women's Open, he realized just how easily they could get around challenging layouts.
By moving the two events to the same course, Davis acknowledged that there could be headaches - the ideas of bad weather or a Monday playoff are especially scary - but he felt it would create buzz and bring the difference between the top men's players and top women's players into sharper focus.
The decision to hold the 2014 Opens at Pinehurst was made in 2008, just around the time that the idea of renovating the historic course was taking shape.
Not knowing what the course would eventually look like, the USGA still felt that Pinehurst's layout - which doesn't ask golfers to carry hazards with big tee shots - lent itself to both the men's and women's events.
"They can both navigate it," said Don Padgett, president of Pinehurst Resorts. "It's a course both of them can play."
At the time, the challenges facing the USGA revolved around how to make the rough right for the men one week and the women the next. But it wasn't long before that problem was taken off the table thanks to Pinehurst's decision to revamp the course.
The redesign, which was done by the firm of Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore and completed in 2010, made the course look and feel like it did in the 1940s. The aim was to bring it closer in line with the vision of the course's designer Donald Ross.
Sand and waste areas took the place of the Bermuda grass that bordered the fairways. The bunkers are much more rugged and natural.
Most importantly, unlike many of the other U.S. Open courses, there is no rough.
Davis said that last fact was what made the course perfect for the USGA's vision. Instead of having to worry about the height of the rough, Davis said, the organizers only have to adjust the tee box placements and the green firmness between the men's and women's tournaments.
"It just wouldn't work anywhere else," Davis said. "And when it came down to it, it was because we couldn't get the roughs right. If you think about the difference between the women and the men, it boils down to three things. How far they hit the ball, how much spin they can put on the ball, and then just their ability to move the ball out of U.S. Open rough.
"So if we had rough that we typically had for the Women's Open, it would be too easy for the men, and vice versa, too hard for the women if we had the men's rough. We got to thinking about it and said, 'You know what? We can do it at Pinehurst. That's the one place we could do this back-to-back Opens.' "

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- (Sports Network) – Villanova University quarterback John Robertson capped his redshirt freshman season a year ago by accepting a handoff instead of giving one.
It occurred when the legendary namesake of the Jerry Rice Award presented Robertson with the FCS national freshman of the year trophy.
Considering Robertson has taken his play to an even higher level one year later, it's only natural that he joined the Walter Payton Award Watch List on Nov. 1.
The 27th annual award, presented by The Sports Network, honors the outstanding player in the FCS. This year's winner will stand alongside a list of Payton Award greats such as Steve McNair, John Friesz, Brian Westbrook, Tony Romo, Brian Finneran and Armanti Edwards.
Speaking of Westbrook, Robertson's recent hot streak has put him in position to challenge for Westbrook's school record of 1,603 rushing yards, set in his Payton Award-winning season of 2001. With 620 yards and 10 touchdowns on the ground over his last three games, Robertson has raised his season total to 1,063 rushing yards in eight games, ranking No. 1 among FCS quarterbacks and sixth overall.
Robertson puts his explosive first step to good use as both a runner and a passer in Villanova's spread offense. Ranked second nationally in completion percentage (122-of-171 for 71.3 percent), he is second in CAA Football in total offense (296.2 yards per game), rushing (132.9 yards per game), scoring (11.2 points per game) and touchdowns (15). He also has thrown for eight touchdowns to rank tied for ninth nationally in points responsible for (138).
As a freshman last year, the lanky signal caller from Paramus, N.J., helped Villanova to the biggest turnaround in the FCS regular season - from two wins in 2011 to eight in '12 - as well as a share of the CAA title and the conference's automatic bid to the national playoffs. He then capped his year by winning the Jerry Rice Award.
Other nominees on the Watch List are quarterbacks Vernon Adams of Eastern Washington, Jimmy Garoppolo of Eastern Illinois, Brock Jensen of North Dakota State, Jeff Mathews of Cornell, DeNarius McGhee of Montana State and Michael Nebrich of Fordham; running backs Zach Bauman of Northern Arizona, Isaiah Crowell of Alabama State, Timothy Flanders of Sam Houston State, Kyle Harbridge of Saint Francis (Pa.), David Johnson of Northern Iowa, Lorenzo Taliaferro of Coastal Carolina, Fabian Truss of Samford, Terrance West of Towson and Zach Zenner of South Dakota State; and wide receivers Jordan Harris of Bryant, Lee Kurfis of Lehigh, Erik Lora of Eastern Illinois and Walter Powell of Murray State.
Bios of all 20 players can be found at http://tinyurl.com/yhv6oh8.
The Payton Award Watch List can undergo revision during the season. Ballots will be sent to a national panel of sports information and media relations directors, broadcasters, writers and other dignitaries following the regular season. The top three vote-getters will be invited to The Sports Network FCS Awards Presentation to be held Dec. 16 in Philadelphia.

George Lucas has confirmed that talks have taken place with Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford and Mark Hamill about reprising their original Star Wars roles in Disney's upcoming Star Wars: Episode VII.
The creator of the hit sci-fi franchise let the news slip during an interview with Bloomberg Businessweek, quickly admitting that he might have let the cat out of the bag.
"I think they (studio leaders) want to announce that with some big whoop-de-do," Lucas said, " but we were negotiating." Reuters also reported on Thursday that Fisher, 56; Hamill, 61; and Ford, 70, are "in talks to join the next installment." Fisher, meanwhile, told a Florida news outlet that she would return as Princess Leia.

It's time to protect yourself and those you love against influenza, or "the flu." Keep your family healthy by:
Along with these preventive measures, a plentiful supply of the vaccine is available from health care providers and local retail establishments, and this season's vaccine includes last season's pandemic H1N1 strain as one of the three strains in the vaccine. By getting vaccinated, you are not only reducing your chances of getting the flu, you are also protecting others by not spreading the flu to them.
Seasonal flu can be a very serious disease for those at greatest risk, and on average 35,000 Americans die of seasonal flu each year. The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and California Department of Public Health now recommend that everyone 6 months and older should get a flu vaccine each year to expand protection against the flu to more people.
"Influenza can leave you or your family members feeling miserable with fever, cough, runny nose and muscle pain, and unable to go to school or work," said Dr. Richard Burton, Health Officer and Director of Placer County Health and Human Services. "Getting a flu shot is an excellent way to reduce your chances of getting the flu – this shot provides protection against this year's most common strains of flu, including H1N1."
Placer County's Health and Human Services Department will once again sponsor low-cost flu clinics. These clinics are conveniently located in a number of Placer County communities. One clinic, scheduled for Thursday, Oct.14, is a drive-through clinic and will be available from 9 AM to 12 PM at the Gold Country Fairgrounds upper parking lot on Fairgate Street, off Auburn Folsom Road in Auburn.
While everyone should get a flu vaccine each flu season, it is especially important that the following groups get vaccinated either because they are at high risk of having serious flu-related complications or because they live with or care for people at high risk for developing flu-related complications:
Children younger than nine years of age getting a flu vaccine for the first time will need two doses of flu vaccine, at least 4 weeks apart. The vaccine cannot be given to infants under 6 months of age.
New this year, Placer County will also be providing Pneumovax (Pneumoccal vaccine) and Tdap (adult Tetanus, Diphtheria, and Pertussis vaccine) for adults in need of either vaccine.
An updated schedule of the County's flu shot clinics is available on line at www.placer.ca.gov. Residents can also call the County's flu hotline (530-889-7161) for schedule information.
Flu shots - $20 There is no charge to Medicare members with Part B and who are not enrolled in an HMO plan. Please bring your Medicare card with you.

"The most important thing to keep a company dining service profitable
is to keep demonstrating real value," Tom Mac Dermott, president
of Clarion Group, said in a press release. "That doesn't mean lower prices, but offering meals
that are fresh, food quality that is high, quick, efficient and
friendly service and a welcoming environment."
Demonstrating value was just one of the recommendations Clarion Group
released in its newest report. Mac Dermott said he believes that the
downturn isn't likely to reverse any time soon for several reasons,
including more people working from home a few days a week and more
people bringing food from home.
Most employees cite cost as the primary reason they bring meals from
home, according to Clarion. In three recent Clarion employee surveys,
53%, 40% and 38% of respondents, respectively, said the meal they
received wasn't worth the price charged. Other strategies Clarion
recommends for improving participation are: offer daily low price
"specials" priced at about $5 including a beverage; feature healthy
scratch-made foods, including items that vegetarians will eat; develop
grab-and-go options for those who work at their desk; offer online
ordering if possible so the customer's order will be ready when they
arrive; and market special events to entice infrequent diners into the

Returning home one evening, she bumps into a stranger. She was walking down the sidewalk, moving her walking stick in front of her to ensure that she wasn't going to bump into something or fall into a hole (not that it would be the first time it happened, anyways). She sighed lightly, feeling the chill evening breeze play in her hair. Pulling her jacket closer, suddenly her walking stick slipped, causing her to stop dead in her tracks. Listening closely, she tried to figure where it had fallen before she turned to the right, took a step and instead of bending down, she bumped into something.Or...someone. From what she could sense, a tall person was standing right in front of her. She assumed she had bumped into their back because she felt movement as soon as she touched them as then she almost

Broken Family (Parent!England x Child!Reader) It was a cold day in London. The ground was blanketed with white. A day before Christmas, on a dreary and lonely night. Shouting could be heard, muffled by thick walls of a house. It was Arthur Kirkland, and his unhappy spouse. She snapped at him, the poor soft man. He could not answer, he could not understand. Why was she so angry? Why did she scream? He understood now, what her shouting could mean. Arthur was not a rich man. He did not have extra to give. But, he had enough, for the three of them to live. For this, the wife shouted. She grew with greed. She wanted more than he could possibly feed. The argument ended, the woman ran away. She left the poor British man, and the lonely child to stay. The child wept, confused as can be. "Why did mommy leave?" they asked, as they tried to plea. How did the woman not see that she left such two precious people behind? How could a fool be so very blind? Arthur felt empty within. He held the

The smell of trees, fresh food and growing things wafted through the air of the town, adding to the cozy feeling of the undisturbed environment. And yet, as the sun warmed the grass and heated the air once damp with dew and moist with the night's pleasures, the sound of cheer was absent. It was merely a painting, drawn with perfect grace and colored to just the right tones, but dipped into a vat of water-thinned indigo. Twas too sad a feeling of this picturesque landscape to be anything merry. The pokemon, as they stirred from their slumber, performed their daily duties without joy.The merchants set up their tables, ready to sell their goods.

Topic: Since this morning, Facebook is part of the 52 official partners of the French Amber Alert, so called "Alerte Enlèvement". First time in Europe !
Seven months ago, Nicole Guedj, former French Minister, and creator of the Amber Alert in France, initiated a call for Facebook to sign the Convention, in the French daily newspapers: "A partnership with Facebook would be useful. We have to use every new technology available to stop child kidnappers. They have to know that with the old media, the Internet or with the phone, millions of people will be aware of the kidnapping, and it could prevent them from acting out" (1st of March, in the French daily newspaper Le Figaro).
Nicole Guedj, then Secretary of State for the protection of victims' rights and president of the Red Helmets Foundation, has made herself heard. The next French Amber Alerts will be published on the Facebook users' wall if they previously liked the dedicated Facebook page.
User's guide:
- "relay information": become a member of the Kidnapping Alert Facebook page
- "send invitations": ask your friends to join themselves the social network and the Kidnapping Alert page
- "publish on your wall": share the information with your own network
- "Bring together your community and this action": if you're a group administrator, call all members to register on the Facebook page and to ask their own group's members to do so
- "the Kidnapping Alert is now activated": automatically, display of the child's description on the wall of every person registered on the Facebook page.
At first, the French Amber Alert was only broadcasted on old media. To extend its impact, the Red Helmets Foundation created in 2009 the 2.0 version, in partnership with Orange, Free, SFR, Google, Yahoo!, Microsoft, Dailymotion, blogSpirit, the ASIC and Silicon Sentier. In 2010, the Red Helmets Foundation decided to develop a mobile app for iPhone, Blackberry, Android and Windows Phone 7 to involve the largest number of people as possible. Nicole Guedj invites all the Facebook users to support this new evolution of the 2.0 French Amber Alert.
According to Nicole Guedj, a last step will still need to be taken: extending the French Amber Alert to European countries: "Since its creation, the Kidnapping Alert proved itself and I am particularly pleased about what has already been accomplished.). However, more improvements could be made. It' has been a long time I am calling for the extension of the alert to the European scale. Nowadays, it's very easy for an abductor to cross borders; alert bulletins issued in the same time in several countries would prevent even more kidnappers from acting out. Our Belgian and Swiss neighbours, whom I had supported in their fight to implement the kidnapping alert in their own country, agree to cooperate. Let's bet this cross-border agreement will be effective before the activation of a new alert"
