There are a number of unique challenges that a medical writer might encounter while writing / managing patient / safety narrative projects. Part 1 of this blog describes the scope of narrative projects and outlines the associated challenges. In Part 2, we provide some ideas to help you successfully manage narrative projects.
Patient narratives are written for deaths, serious adverse events (SAEs), or adverse events (AEs) of special clinical interest (eg, AEs associated with the mechanism of action being studied, laboratory results of special interest, regulatory requirements etc) and those leading to permanent discontinuation from a clinical trial. Patient narratives form an important component of clinical study reports (CSRs) and pharmacovigilance activities (eg, post marketing safety reports). As per International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) E3 (Section 12.3.2), a patient narrative should describe:
- the nature, intensity and outcome of the event,
- clinical course leading to the event,
- timing of study drug administration,
- relevant laboratory measures,
- counter measures,
- action taken with the study drug in relation to the event,
- post mortem findings (if applicable), and
- investigator's and sponsor's opinion on causality.
Additionally, patient identifier, age, gender, clinical condition, disease being treated, relevant medical history, concomitant and prior medications should be included.
All this information is extracted from the source files (eg, Council for International Organisations of Medical Sciences [CIOMS] form, Case Report Form [CRF], MedWatch form, Data Clarification Form [DCF], summary tables, and listings). Sometimes, the CIOMS form can be directly attached as an appendix to the CSR.
An early challenge, for sponsors, is to identify the approximate number of narratives to be produced, which further determines the narrative format and timing of production (pre- or post database lock). If narratives are written before the data are final, updates are required based on the final clean data. This approach can be time consuming, but is more feasible for projects where a large number of narratives have to be produced and finalised quickly eg, for a regulatory submission. Medical writers can provide effective guidance to clinical study teams during this process.
The majority of Phase II and Phase IV studies have a large number of patients meeting the narrative criteria as outlined in the narrative plan. Excellent project management skills are essential for tracking such projects where huge volumes of narratives have to be written, often by a team of medical writers. The importance of careful management should not be under estimated; ensuring accuracy and consistency across a large number of narratives is a time consuming and tricky task!
In a Clinical Research Organisation (CRO), completing a narrative project within a pre specified budget and time, whilst maintaining quality can be extremely critical for the writers and the business as a whole. As soon as possible, team agreement on the style and content should be sought; this will reduce the possibility of valuable time being lost due to changes requested by the study team during the project lifecycle.
Narrative writing involves expressing the messages clearly and effectively, whilst collating the relevant information from various sources, and liaising with medical experts. A narrative tells the complete story chronologically and holds together medically. Identifying and relating the 'relevant' medical history or laboratory result to the event of interest can be challenging.

Chapel in the sky
Finally, I was able to look at the 'chapel in the sky' from within. It is smaller than I imagined and the views from the windows are terrific. There are several beams that provide support and are known as St. Andrews crosses.
I enjoyed being on the balcony taking in the view of city.
It is the oldest church in Chicago and was founded by Methodist circuit riders in 1831, six years before the City of Chicago was incorporated. In 1924, when the skyscraper was dedicated, it was the tallest building in Chicago, until 1930 when the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) surpassed it. Built of gray and white Bedford stone and
mixing the grace of a French Gothic cathedral and the practically of a skyscraper
Chicago Temple is also the tallest church building in the world at 400 ft (120 m) above ground level, although Ulm Minister is the tallest church in the world. (Wikipedia)
The Sky Chapel was created in 1952 as a gift from the Walgreen family in memory of Charles Walgreen founder of the drugstore chain. It contains 16 stained glass windows depicting scenes from the Bible.
Where: 77 W. Washington Street, Chicago, IL
They offer tours every day. For more information, view their website .

Starbucks Corporation (SBUX) is in a bullish flag off its December 6 gap-up of almost 6%. A move above the gap high of 53.70 could lead to a short-term target at 55.82. The stock has rallied from just under 45 in late October, after dropping from its all-time high set in April at 62, so has plenty of room for continued upside.
United States Steel (X) has been coiling in a symmetrical triangle consolidation for the last six months, and is approaching the declining tops line. A break above current levels could lead to a short-term target of 23.59, above its high from August, and signal a reversal of the downtrend from around 32 earlier this year.
Gulfport Energy Corp. (GPOR) is in a bullish flag after gapping up nearly 20% on November 28. The stock is at all-time higher, and at the upper trend line of the flag, after rallying from under 16 in late June. It is also above a key resistance line in the 37 area going back to March 2011. Today's break could lead to next targets at 40.62 and then 43.31.
Scientific Games Corporation (SGMS) has edged above a key resistance line in the 8 1/2 area after rallying sharply in November from 6.71. Short-term target is 9.

text: AZGEO 5pts Mark, I've been reading a number of your blog posts this morning and have really enjoyed learning a bit more. I have a question - is there an archive list for your blogs? The last four or five new cars I've purchased using pre-negotiated credit union pricing based on a discount from the invoice. I don't really know if I'm getting a great price but the process has been simple. I was wondering if you've addressed this in a previous blog? Oh, and I loved this particular blog - I'm a Driver/Driver which I found out in the 70's - but I've mellowed a bit over the years. :)

[0001] 1. Technical Field
[0002] The present invention is directed to a search engine. More specifically, the present invention is directed to an apparatus and method capable of performing background searches.
[0003] 2. Description of Related Art
[0004] As is well known by now, the World Wide Web (WWW) or Internet is a system of servers that support specially formatted documents. The documents are formatted in a script called Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) that supports links to other documents as well as graphics, audio and video files. This allows a user to jump from one document or web page to another by just clicking on the links embedded in a displayed web page.
[0005] Due to the number of servers that make up the Internet, a great amount of information is readily available to a user. However, to take full advantage of this benefit, the user has to be able to wade through this amount of information fairly easily. To facilitate this task, various search engines are made available trough the Internet. A search engine is a program that searches documents for specified keywords or phrases and returns a list of the documents where the keywords or phrases are found. Some search engines are independent standalone search engines such as google.com. Others are available through web portals such as yahoo.com.
[0006] In any case, when using a search engine, the user types in a keyword or a phrase that will most likely return documents about a subject matter. A list of web pages where the keyword or phrase is found is then returned. The user then has to access each returned page to determine its relevance. As alluded to above, each document may contain at least one link to another document, and therefore, it is very conceivable that the user, while inspecting a returned web page for its relevance, may jump from one page to another using the links embedded in each successively displayed document before accessing another web page from the original list.
[0007] Nonetheless, as the user is inspecting each page for its relevance, it may occur to the user to search for another subject matter or subject matters. Presently, when a user wants to search for a second subject matter while in the process of searching for a first subject matter, the user has to either make a note, mental or otherwise, to search for the second subject matter or abandon the first search to start the second search.
[0008] If the user chooses to make a note, the user has to remember to actually perform the search. If the user abandons the first search to perform the second search, the user may never finish the first test.
[0009] What is needed, therefore, is an apparatus and method that will allow a user to search for the second subject matter while still searching for the first subject matter.
[0010] The present invention provides an apparatus and method that allow a user to perform a second web search in the midst of evaluating a first web search. The progression through the first web search is performed in the foreground while the second web search is performed in the background. In one embodiment of the invention, keywords or phrases for which to perform the secondary background search are provided. Each time a web document is displayed, the document is parsed for the occurrence of the keywords or phrases for the second background search.
[0011] In another embodiment, the secondary search is automatically conducted in the background upon each link returned from the search engine as a result of the search words provided for the primary search. In either case, links for documents which contain the keywords or phrases are stored in a bookmarks folder.
[0012] The novel features believed characteristic of the invention are set forth in the appended claims. The invention itself, however, as well as a preferred mode of use, further objectives and advantages thereof, will best be understood by reference to the following detailed description of an illustrative embodiment when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
[0013]FIG. 1 is an exemplary block diagram illustrating a distributed data processing system according to the present invention.
[0014]FIG. 2 is an exemplary block diagram of a server apparatus according to the present invention.
[0015]FIG. 3 is an exemplary block diagram of a client apparatus according to the present invention.
[0016]FIG. 4 is a flow diagram of the invention.
[0017] With reference now to the figures, FIG. 1 depicts a pictorial representation of a network of data processing systems in which the present invention may be implemented. Network data processing system 100 is a network of computers in which the present invention may be implemented. Network data processing system 100 contains a network 102, which is the medium used to provide communications links between various devices and computers connected together within network data processing system 100. Network 102 may include connections, such as wire, wireless communication links, or fiber optic cables.
[0018] In the depicted example, server 104 is connected to network 102 along with storage unit 106. In addition, clients 108, 110, and 112 are connected to network 102. These clients 108, 110, and 112 may be, for example, personal computers or network computers. In the depicted example, server 104 provides data, such as boot files, operating system images, and applications to clients 108, 110 and 112. Clients 108, 110 and 112 are clients to server 104. Network data processing system 100 may include additional servers, clients, and other devices not shown. In the depicted example, network data processing system 100 is the Internet with network 102 representing a worldwide collection of networks and gateways that use the TCP/IP suite of protocols to communicate with one another. At the heart of the Internet is a backbone of high-speed data communication lines between major nodes or host computers, consisting of thousands of commercial, government, educational and other computer systems that route data and messages. Of course, network data processing system 100 also may be implemented as a number of different types of networks, such as for example, an intranet, a local area network (LAN), or a wide area network (WAN). FIG. 1 is intended as an example, and not as an architectural limitation for the present invention.
[0019] Referring to FIG. 2, a block diagram of a data processing system that may be implemented as a server, such as server 104 in FIG. 1, is depicted in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Data processing system 200 may be a symmetric multiprocessor (SMP) system including a plurality of processors 202 and 204 connected to system bus 206. Alternatively, a single processor system may be employed. Also connected to system bus 206 is memory controller/cache 208, which provides an interface to local memory 209. I/O bus bridge 210 is connected to system bus 206 and provides an interface to I/O bus 212. Memory controller/cache 208 and I/O bus bridge 210 may be integrated as depicted.
[0020] Peripheral component interconnect (PCI) bus bridge 214 connected to I/O bus 212 provides an interface to PCI local bus 216. A number of modems may be connected to PCI local bus 216. Typical PCI bus implementations will support four PCI expansion slots or add-in connectors. Communications links to network computers 108, 110 and 112 in FIG. 1 may be provided through modem 218 and network adapter 220 connected to PCI local bus 216 through add-in boards. Additional PCI bus bridges 222 and 224 provide interfaces for additional PCI local buses 226 and 228, from which additional modems or network adapters may be supported. In this manner, data processing system 200 allows connections to multiple network computers. A memory-mapped graphics adapter 230 and hard disk 232 may also be connected to I/O bus 212 as depicted, either directly or indirectly.
[0021] Those of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that the hardware depicted in FIG. 2 may vary. For example, other peripheral devices, such as optical disk drives and the like, also may be used in addition to or in place of the hardware depicted. The depicted example is not meant to imply architectural limitations with respect to the present invention.
[0022] The data processing system depicted in FIG. 2 may be, for example, an IBM e-Server pSeries system, a product of International Business Machines Corporation in Armonk, New York, running the Advanced Interactive Executive (AIX) operating system or LINUX operating system.
[0023] With reference now to FIG. 3, a block diagram illustrating a data processing system is depicted in which the present invention may be implemented. Data processing system 300 is an example of a client computer. Data processing system 300 employs a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) local bus architecture. Although the depicted example employs a PCI bus, other bus architectures such as Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) and Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) may be used. Processor 302 and main memory 304 are connected to PCI local bus 306 through PCI bridge 308. PCI bridge 308 also may include an integrated memory controller and cache memory for processor 302. Additional connections to PCI local bus 306 may be made through direct component interconnection or through add-in boards. In the depicted example, local area network (LAN) adapter 310, SCSI host bus adapter 312, and expansion bus interface 314 are connected to PCI local bus 306 by direct component connection. In contrast, audio adapter 316, graphics adapter 318, and audio/video adapter 319 are connected to PCI local bus 306 by add-in boards inserted into expansion slots. Expansion bus interface 314 provides a connection for a keyboard and mouse adapter 320, modem 322, and additional memory 324. Small computer system interface (SCSI) host bus adapter 312 provides a connection for hard disk drive 326, tape drive 328, and CD-ROM drive 330. Typical PCI local bus implementations will support three or four PCI expansion slots or add-in connectors.
[0024] An operating system runs on processor 302 and is used to coordinate and provide control of various components within data processing system 300 in FIG. 3. The operating system may be a commercially available operating system, such as Windows 2000, which is available from Microsoft Corporation. An object oriented programming system such as Java may run in conjunction with the operating system and provide calls to the operating system from Java programs or applications executing on data processing system 300. "Java" is a trademark of Sun Microsystems, Inc. Instructions for the operating system, the object-oriented operating system, and applications or programs are located on storage devices, such as hard disk drive 326, and may be loaded into main memory 304 for execution by processor 302.
[0025] Those of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that the hardware in FIG. 3 may vary depending on the implementation. Other internal hardware or peripheral devices, such as flash ROM (or equivalent nonvolatile memory) or optical disk drives and the like, may be used in addition to or in place of the hardware depicted in FIG. 3. Also, the processes of the present invention may be applied to a multiprocessor data processing system.
[0026] As another example, data processing system 300 may be a stand-alone system configured to be bootable without relying on some type of network communication interface, whether or not data processing system 300 comprises some type of network communication interface. As a further example, data processing system 300 may be a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) device, which is configured with ROM and/or flash ROM in order to provide non-volatile memory for storing operating system files and/or user-generated data.
[0027] The depicted example in FIG. 3 and above-described examples are not meant to imply architectural limitations. For example, data processing system 300 may also be a notebook computer or hand held computer in addition to taking the form of a PDA. Data processing system 300 also may be a kiosk or a Web appliance.
[0028] The present invention provides an apparatus and method that allow a user to perform concurrent searches for two subject matters over the Internet, one in the foreground and one in the background. The invention is, in essence, a search engine that may be embedded in an Internet browser or pluggable into the browser. The invention may be local to client systems 108, 110 and 112 of FIG. 1 or to the server 104 or to both the server 104 and clients 108, 110 and 112. Consequently, the present invention may reside on any data storage medium (i.e., floppy disk, compact disk, hard disk, ROM, RAM, etc.) used by a computer system.
[0029] To better understand the invention, an example will be provided. Suppose a user wants to buy a DVD player. If prudent, the user will want to review articles about DVD players before actually buying one. Suppose further, the user likes Sony products. The user may tailor the search to retrieve web pages or articles about Sony DVD players. While reviewing these articles, suppose the user reads a comment that compares a particular Sony DVD player with a particular JVC DVD player. The user may then want to search articles regarding JVC DVD players also. As stated above, presently when confronted with a choice of continuing a first search or starting a second search, a user has to choose to either make a note to perform the second search at a later time or abandon the first search to start the second search. Using the present invention, however, the user may search for articles regarding JVC DVD players while continuing accessing articles regarding the Sony DVD players.
[0030] To do so, the user needs to access the invention, possibly through a pull-down menu, and enter the keywords or phrases needed for the invention to search for articles regarding the JVC DVD players. Depending on its configuration, the invention may do a new Internet search for articles regarding the JVC DVD players or may search each newly visited web page from that point forward. In either case, the search will be totally transparent to the user. The web pages returned may be stored into a set or folder of bookmarks. This folder may use the first keyword as title. In the alternative, the user may be prompted, when the invention is accessed, to provide a title for the folder.
[0031] Just as with existing search engines, the invention may arrange the bookmarked pages based on their relevance to the subject matter of the search, or based on keyword hits or based on the order they were generated.
[0032] When ready to do so the user may, through a pull-down menu option, access the bookmarked pages in the folder. Before exiting each accessed bookmarked page, the user may be prompted to store the bookmark in the Favorites folder (i.e., the folder containing the regular bookmarks), delete the folder or leave it where it is. Of course, the user may delete the entire folder at any time.
[0033]FIG. 4 is a flow diagram of the invention. To start the process, the user may have to click on an icon. The icon may be located near the search icon or the favorites icon of existing browsers and may be called "background search". When the icon is clicked on, a menu is pulled down. The menu may contain three items. The items may be labeled "search", "accessing folders", "deleting folders".
[0034] When the process starts (step 400), three checks are continuously being made. The checks are to determine whether "search", "accessing folders" or "deleting folders" is clicked on from the menu. If "search" is clicked on, the user will be prompted to enter a keyword or phrase to search for (steps 405 and 410). When the user enters the keyword or phrase, the user will be prompted to enter a name for the folder in which the result of the search will be stored. If the user clicks on start search without providing a name, the keyword or phrase entered will be used as the name of the folder. The first word in the phrase or group of keywords may always be used as the default name for the folder (steps 415 and 420). If the user enters a name, the name will be used as the name of the folder. The folder will be created and links retrieved during the search will be saved therein (steps 415, 425, 430 and 435). Note that if the search did not retrieve any links, a note may be put in the folder to let the user know that that the search was performed but no links were found.
[0035] If the user clicks on "accessing folders" a list of folders from prior background searches will be displayed. At that point, the user needs only click on the folder of interest to see its content (steps 440 and 445). If the user clicks on "delete folder", the list of folders from previous background searches will be displayed. The user may then delete any folder from the list using regular methods of deleting folders.
[0036] The description of the present invention has been presented for purposes of illustration and description, and is not intended to be exhaustive or limited to the invention in the form disclosed. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art. For example, more than one background search may be performed with the invention. The embodiment was chosen and described in order to best explain the principles of the invention, the practical application, and to enable others of ordinary skill in the art to understand the invention for various embodiments with various modifications as are suited to the particular use contemplated.

Not bad. At least it doesn't look weird like most Hybrid vehicles.
Looks good and has decent fuel economy. I'm just not impressed for some reason...
They should make a pedestrian collision energy regenerator. This should up the mpg by 1 if you're a safe driver, and 10 if you drive like my roommate.
I am all for hybrid performance. Rather than follow everyone else in the world of FI, create your own market in hybrid performance.
Still don't know how I feel about the pedestrian warning thing. I know it's for blind people but for everyone else, you deserve to get clipped if you run across the street [underline]without[/underline] looking, or see a car and decide to cross anyway.Nice to see a large luxury sedan with 360hp and 30mpg though!

Viewing convention Program information from 2014
Session Details
264. Henry James, Moral Philosophy, and Seeing Others
Sunday, 10 January, 10:15–11:30 a.m., Chicago G, Chicago Marriott
Program arranged by the Henry James Society
Presiding: Kenneth W. Warren, Univ. of Chicago
Speakers: Jonathan E. Freedman, Univ. of Michigan, Ann Arbor; Dorothy J. Hale, Univ. of California, Berkeley; Robert B. Pippin, Univ. of Chicago; H. Meili Steele, Univ. of South Carolina, Columbia
For discussion questions, visit mockingbird.creighton.edu/english/HJS/Home.html.
Session Description:
Henry James's later fiction demonstrates how the art novel exceeds even as it stays within the realm of the aesthetic. Linguistic opacity and difficulty have paradoxically encouraged considerations that the art novel appears to dismiss, namely, how we establish shareable worlds, distinguish the illusory from the real, decide what we ought to do, or what we owe or do not owe others.
No comments have been posted for this session.

World's tallest dog dies of "old age" — at 5
Zeus, the world's tallest dog, is dead.
The Great Dane passed away earlier this month — two months shy of his sixth birthday — from "symptoms of old age," according to his owner.
Great Danes have shorter life spans than most dogs — most likely the result of breeders intent on making the breed larger yet, and the strain that size puts on their organs — which only makes the death of Zeus doubly sad.
"We'll really miss him," said Zeus' owner, Kevin Doorlag, of Otsego, Michigan.
Doorlag and his wife, Denise say Zeus was a "wonderful dog" — famous both for Guinness World Record-setting size, and for his work as a therapy dog in their hometown.
He stood 44 inches at the shoulder — 7 feet, 4 inches on his hind legs. He claimed the Guinness World Record in 2012, and still held the title in the 2013 and 2014 editions.
The previous World's Tallest Dog was Giant George, a Tuscon, Arizona, Great Dane. He died at age 7.
Kevin Doorlag said one of the things he will miss most is seeing the joy Zeus brought to others.
The death of Zeus is, first and foremost, a time to remember and celebrate Zeus.
But if it makes us question why, in the name of seeking extremes, we accept purebred breeding practices that lead to ill health and short lives, that's fine, too. They're in need of questioning.
What there's less need for — whether it's in pursuit of ribbons, world records, or sales — is making fluffy dogs fluffier, long and skinny dogs longer and skinnier, short snouted dogs even more shortly snouted.
We don't need (sorry, Marmaduke) cartoonish dogs, or dogs that, through breeding them with close relatives, become exaggerated caricatures of their breed.
Healthy dogs will do just fine.

Bartender gets $1,000 tip to help pay for her dog's surgery
The paw-print tattoo on Christina Summitt's wrist often gets conversations started — not that, in her job bartending at a Holiday Inn in New Jersey, she needs any help with that.
A week ago Saturday, two customers asked her about it, and whether she had a dog of her own.
Indeed she does, one of whom is a Great Dane-Labrador mix named Tucker who, she told the man and woman, was at the veterinary hospital having emergency surgery after he swallowed a tennis ball.
The man commented about how expensive that was probably going to be, and Summitt confided that she'd received an estimate of $2,700.
But Tucker, who she adopted in 2011, was her baby, she explained, and she'd sell her car, if necessary, to pay for the operation.
After the conversation, Summitt got busy behind the bar of the Clinton Holiday Inn, and the couple ordered more drinks and dinner. When it was time to close out their $80 tab, the man filled out a tip for her on the receipt — for $1,000.
Upon seeing the amount, Summitt said she started crying and showed the receipt to her sister, who tends bar with her. She wanted to make sure there really were three zeros after the 1.
"I went back over and said 'Sir, I cannot accept this, what is this for, why would you do this?''" Summitt said. He told her to put it toward Tucker's medical costs.
"I just stood there in shock. I walked around and hugged this couple."
Summitt, in addition to working three jobs, is a volunteer with a pit bull rescue group, according to CNN, which initially carried her self-reported story as an iReport.
Summitt, 37, wrote a Facebook post about, and it went on to appear, on Easter morning, on the Facebook page "Why Bartenders and Servers Hate People."
Not everyone believed it initially, but it was true.
Hotel manager Michelle Satanik told CNN she tracked down the customer to verify that the gesture was legitimate.
"Apparently this man does this quite frequently. Just a really nice guy and humanitarian," Satanik said.
In case that's not a happy enough ending, Tucker's operations was a success, and he's recovering at home.

The soon-to-be world's tallest dog?
Freddy, an 18-month-old Great Dane from Great Britain, already stands 7-foot-4 on his hind legs, and he appears headed to taking the world's tallest dog title away from a Great Dane in Michigan.
He's outgrown Britain's previous tallest dog, and has long since surpassed, in terms of height, his owner, Claire Stoneman, who stands 5 feet 4 inches.
Stoneman said Freddy was the runt of the litter, but he has grown quickly on a diet of regular dog food ($100 worth a week), peanut butter on toast, and sofas, of which he has destroyed — but not consumed — 14.
Stoneman said it took a while for Freddy, who now weighs 154 pounds, to get used to her small home in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex.
Stoneman said she and Freddy get up early for walks so they won't encounter other dogs.
"If he wants to run after a dog, I wouldn't be able to stop him," she said.
The current world's tallest dog is Zeus, a Great Dane from Otsego, Mich., who was 7-foot-4 (standing on his hind legs) when he was recognized by Guinness World Record in 2012.
You can find more photos of Freddy at the New York Post (click the link for the full slide show).
Freddy now measures 41 inches from foot to shoulder blade, compared with Zeus' 44 inches.

Supersize me: Americans turning to big dogs
Big dogs — not that they ever left — are coming back.
In its annual report on breed popularity in the U.S., the American Kennel Club notes that, while the Labrador retriever is again the most popular dog breed, other large breeds are quickly moving up the list, including Dobermans, giant schnauzers and Great Danes.
According to the AKC, it could be a sign of an improving economy.
"Owning bigger breeds – an economic indicator of sorts – has been on the rise during the past five years," said Lisa Peterson, AKC spokeswoman. "As the economy has improved, people are turning back to the big dogs they love, which cost more to feed and care for than the smaller breeds that saw a rise in popularity in 2007 and 2008."
Labs took the top spot for the 23rd straight year, the longest consecutive reign of any dog in the annual ranking. The rankings are based on the number of AKC dog registrations across the country.
Here are the top 10, with links to their AKC profiles:
1. Labrador Retriever
2. German Shepherd Dog
3. Golden Retriever
4. Beagle
5. Bulldog
6. Yorkshire Terrier
7. Boxer
8. Poodle
9. Rottweiler
10. Dachshund
Comparing those rankings to the 2009 list, there's evidence of a decline in small dog popularity — Yorkies dropped three places, from third, dachshunds dropped two, from eighth, and shih tzus fell out of the top 10 entirely.
Some smaller breeds saw a gain in popularity, like the French bulldog (now 11th). But far greater gains were made by greatly sized dogs: Doberman Pinschers rose from 22 to 12; Great Danes from 27 to 16; and Bernese Mountain Dogs from 47 to 32.
The AKC announced its rankings Friday, in advance of the upcoming Westminster Kennel Club dog show at Madison Square Garden.
Three new breeds will compete this year: rat terriers, Chinooks, and Portuguese Podengo Pequenos.

Traumatized dog finds some deer friends
Eleven days after Lacy, a Great Dane, ran away from a highway accident in Michigan she was found and returned to her owner.
But the odd part of this story came at the nine-day mark, when Lacy's owner, Jamie Brill, who'd been searching for days with her boyfriend, spotted her dog in a field, through a pair of binoculars.
Lacy was standing next to two adult whitetail does and two fawns.
"Mark handed me the binoculars and said, 'Do you believe this?' I looked, and Lacy was licking the head of one of the fawns," Brill told Lansing State Journal columnist John Schneider.
When Brill tried calling Lacy from afar, she didn't budge, remaining instead with the deer.
Brill, stationed with the U.S. Navy in Grand Rapids, rolled her Mini Cooper on Interstate 96 on Aug. 11. Her two dogs – Lacy and Koko – were in the car. Brill was taken to the hospital. Koko was taken to a veterinarian, and Lacy ran off.
Two days after Lacy was spotted hobnobbing with the deer, Schneider, the newspaper columnist, got a call from a man who had spotted Lacy — whose disappearance by then had become a big story.
Schneider called Brill in Grand Rapids, and she called a Lansing veterinarian who had been involved in the search and agreed to check out the sighting.
Veterinarian Leslie Ortlieb drove to the vacant house and on its porch saw Lacy, who was described as being a skittish sort even before the accident.
But Ortlieb apparently said the right words: "Do you want to go see Koko?"
The Great Dane walked up to her and got into her car.
Lacy was emaciated and had a small cut on her leg, but otherwise appeared in good health.

Roadside Encounter: Clyde
Name: Clyde
Breed: Great Dane mix
Age: About 1
Encountered: At Riverside Park in Baltimore
Backstory: We ran into this handsome Great Dane mix at the park Friday. Clyde was found last year at a school near Patterson Park. Signs were posted seeking his owners, who eventually responded and said they didn't want him anymore, according to his new owner.
Clyde has been in his new home since October, adopted through a rescue organization.
He was a new face, for us, and even though Clyde seemed very mellow and non-threatening, Ace, contrary to his normal behavior, seemed to feel the need to let Clyde know who was in charge.
Generally, Ace doesn't throw his weight around, unless he sees some dogs fighting, or some humping going on. Then he responds swiftly, letting both parties know they need to break it up.
While Ace always acts like he's the sheriff of the park, he usually doesn't go all macho — but with Clyde he did, following him around, leaning his head over Clyde's back, and seemingly challenging him to a showdown at the water fountain.
A couple of times he has met dogs he, at first, didn't seem to like — usually large black male ones, especially if they still have all their boy equipment. He'll do a bit of posturing, but usually nothing comes of it and they end up friends.
With Clyde, Ace continued following and hovering over and around him until he left. Clyde didn't seem bothered by the attempted indimidation. All the Great Danes I've known seem cool that way. Their ability to take things in stride is as huge as their actual stride.
Ace, would go on acting strange, long after our encounter with Clyde. Later that night, he switched into wimpy, ultra-sensitive mode, as he'll do sometimes when there's a loud noise. He was antsy, his tail between his legs, seemingly afraid to be outside. The heavy winds seemed to be bothering him, or maybe, someone suggested, the full moon was the cause.
In any event, he had, in a matter of hours, gone from Bruce Willis to Woody Allen. He's quite complex, my dog, with moods as interchangeable as my own, which is all OK. As long as he doesn't start acting like Mel Gibson.

Roadside Encounters: Mikey and Soju
Names: Mikey and Soju
Breeds: Pug and Great Dane
Encountered: At Riverside Park in Baltimore
Backstory: I got to spend some time with two of my favorite local dogs yesterday — a day whose warm temperatures led both humans and canines to linger at Riverside Park, in no particular hurry to get back home.
Even if it's not here to stay, the mild weather was welcome — especially to Ace, after a winter of being rushed through the dog walk by an owner hoping to quickly get the "mission" accomplished and himself back indoors …
"C'mon, do your business, my toes are frozen. It's too cold. Let's go."
In retrospect, in this past month, I've probably been, in Ace's eye, a bit of a buzzkill.
Doing his duty, I don't think, has ever been the foremost mission in Ace's mind during trips to the park (hence the urging). He sees it as more of a happy hour, or preferably two – a chance to add to his scent portfolio, visit old dog friends, meet some new ones, and track down those folks who, at some point in history, have provided him with a treat.
Yesterday was the kind of visit he likes best — a long one, with good dog friends to play with, new ones to sniff out, and lots of humans to mooch off. (If you have treats in your pocket, Ace will determine which pocket and, should you need prompting, attempt to insert his nose inside it. When it comes to freeloading, I think I have learned some of his skills, and he has picked up some of mine.)
We got to catch up with our old friend Soju — he's named after the vodka-like (but sweeter) Korean beverage. Soju and Ace are old friends, and they used to wrestle endlessly at Riverside, a true up-on-the-hind-legs, paw-swinging battle of the titans. When one of them went down, you could almost feel the earth shake.
They went at it for a bit yesterday, with Ace, the older of the two, watching as Soju galloped around him in circles, then tackling him like a lazy linebacker when Soju veered close enough.
Mikey stayed out of the fray — a wise choice given he's not much bigger than a football. Mikey, a therapy dog with one of the more expressive faces you'll ever see, generally avoids the roughhousing, choosing instead to sit at your feet, looking up at you with big brown bulging eyes until you give him a treat, no matter how long it takes.
Good things, he seems to know, come to those who wait – and spring is one example. Yesterday didn't mark it's arrival, but even a false precursor was welcome, and dogs and humans soaked it up. It occurs to me that we should send thank you notes to spring — perhaps that would lead her to stay around a little longer and forestall the inevitable arrival of her evil sister summer, who always comes to early and stays past her welcome.
Speaking of staying past one's welcome, Ace and I — after a glorious month in a friend's empty house in Federal Hill — will be hitting the road again next week.
As of now, it appears we will be heading south, where we plan to stay in an undetermined location for an indeterminate period of time. How's that for a plan?
Once again, we'll tear ourselves away from Baltimore, where — in addition to promoting my new book — the last month has allowed us to get ourselves organized, experience a semblance of stability, soak in a hot tub on a rooftop deck (just me, not Ace) and savor the pleasures of our old neighborhood.
I'll miss my corner bar. Ace will miss his favorite park. But, as I think I said nine months ago — when Ace and I first embarked on our journey to discover America, its dogs and the people who love them — there's one thing we'll miss most of all:
Friends … big and small.

To the golf novice, flicks centered around the sport may not seem like a very exciting cornerstone of film. But when you actually start listing them in your mind, you begin to realize just how many amazing characters have been created over the years (either based in reality or completely fabricated and unrealistic —- looking at you Happy Gilmore). From Bill Murray's Carl Spackler in Caddyshack (okay, everyone in Caddyshack) to Kevin Costner's Roy McAvoy in Tin Cup, there have been plenty of fantastic roles out there that you've probably been quoting for years on the green. Here's our top nine favorite characters we would most like to tee off with, along with a quote or two that you should probably adopt when awkwardly beating your boss.
"Cinderella story. Outta nowhere. A former greenskeeper, now, about to become the Masters champion. It looks like a mirac...It's in the hole! It's in the hole! It's in the hole!"
Fun fact? Bill Murray improvised the "Cinderella story" sequence based on only two lines of stage direction.
"Inside each and every one of us is our one, true authentic swing. Something we was born with. Something that's ours and ours alone. Something that can't be learned...something that's got to be remembered."
"[To his golf ball] You little son of a b**ch ball! Why you don't you just go HOME? That's your HOME! Are you too good for your HOME? ANSWER ME!"
[Judge Smails is taking a really long time to hit his drive on the first tee, while Al Czervik waits in the next foursome]
Al Czervik: While we're young.
Chubbs: It's all in the hips. It's all in the hips. It's all in the hips. It's all in the hips.
Happy Gilmore: Get off of me!
Chubbs: Just easin' the tension, baby. Just easin' the tension!
Happy Gilmore: Yeah, well ease it on someone else.
"…that shot was a defining moment, and when a defining moment comes along, you define the moment...or the moment defines you."
"Remember Danny, two wrongs don't make a right but three rights make a left."
[Goldfinger is cheating at golf, with the help of Oddjob]
Hawker: If that's his original ball, I'm Arnold Palmer.
James Bond: 'Tisn't.
Hawker: How do you know?
James Bond: I'm standing on it.
And finally, we come to the infamous gopher. Why wouldn't you want to play a game amidst this little furry fella's insane antics? After all, Caddyshack is funny because of the way the characters interact with the burrowing menace.
Since the gopher obviously doesn't speak, we can't give you a quote. But, did you know that the noises it makes were actually vocalized by a dolphin? The same sound effects were used for Flipper in 1964.

I thought this was cool enough to post- regardless if it isn't about hiking Osprey Fishing Incase the link doesn't work: http://www.youtube.com/embed/nA3LtXnNIto?feature=player_embedded
One word. Awesome!
That is one powerful bird. At first I didn't quite trust my eyes when he hauled that salmon out of the water. What a magnificent bird.
I especially liked the way he "surfed" the fish in the air, one leg behind the other.
That's a great video. On the third fish, notice how it worked at shifting it's grip to carry it in a more aerodynamic fore/aft position ... not unusual. MN and western WI BPLers might enjoy The Raptor Center's spring public release event: 11:00am - 2:00pm, Saturday May 5 Hyland Lake Park Reserve, 10145 Bush Lake Road, Bloomington, MNIn addition to releasing whatever patients that are ready to return to the wild there will be falcons, owls, hawks and bald eagles to be seen up close and personal.Look for me if you come.
"In addition to releasing whatever patients that are ready to return to the wild there will be falcons, owls, hawks and bald eagles to be seen up close and personal."Warning: Leave your Chihuahuas and Toy Poodles at home.
"I especially liked the way he "surfed" the fish in the air, one leg behind the other."Yes. From beginning to end, I was entranced at watching a creature so completely tuned in to its body. He had to get everything just right in each instance to execute not just the kill, but the getaway. A master of applied physics, if ever there was one.
Warning: Leave your Chihuahuas and Toy Poodles at home.Pardon my key omission ... no pets of any size, PLEASE. But that's not for the safety of the pets.The patients that will be released are fully wild birds and tend to "get out of Dodge" as soon as released. It's highly unlikely they'll hunt anywhere near the crowd of large predators the public releases attract (that'll be us). The other birds are former patients that could not be rehabilitated to 100% functionality. They will be tethered at all times.
Edited by skopeo on 09/08/2015 16:57:42 MDT.
Haha, so cool. Reminds me of somewhere I read about a guy who was followed around the local lake everytime he fished by a Heron. He occasionally threw the bird a fish or two.

Then the group comes the engine room
Nancy: This is supposed to be the engine room where's all the fire?
Johhny: It's flooded for now but it won't stay that way for long. [They walk through the flooded engine room and then they find a hole of water heading off into a hole like a water fall]
Wendy: Well how do we get across this?
Johhny: Mark do you have an axe?
Mark: Yes I do.
Heather: Those are some pretty big pants that you have.
Johhny: Thanks. [Johhny climbs up a ledge and tries to cut it down. He cuts the first one and the first one falls and then he cuts the second one and it falls]
Johhny: Okay let's go everyone.
Susan: Would it be safe if we fall into the water?
Johhny: No you would be sucked into that hole right their and then that's the end of your life!
: How did he get over their so fast?
Nancy: Maybe he has the power to run fast without us seeing him do it.
Johhny: , Nancy you two guys are next!
: I'll be right behind you Nancy. [They go on the ledge and walk across it. They get off of the ledge and are safe]
Nancy: That was easy.
: Yeah.
Johhny: Campanula your next. [Lady Tottington walks on to the ledge. Wallace watches her come over and feels in love with her]
Nancy: what are you staring at?
: Huh oh nothing. [Johhny and Wallace help her down]
Hope: Now this will be walking across the train trestle.
Peace: Come on let's go.
Johhny: Only one person can be on the ledge at a time!
Nancy: Wait how could that be we just went on together.
Johhny: I heard to much squeaking you never know death might happen. [Hope goes first and then Peace goes across]
Hope: Now walking across that train trestle came in handy for balance.
Heather: I don't you make me forget to ground you to for going across that!
Peace: We will.
Hope: [Whispering] You'll make her forget won't you?
Peace: Oh yeah. [Then Wendy and then Susan go across]
Susan: That was easy than I thought it would me.
Wendy: I sure hope the girls will make it over that.
Susan: Yes Sophia was a great balancer on balance beams.
Hope: Come on May this easy!
May: I can not swim!
Johhny: The best thing is to not look down at the fire and say you can do it.
May: Okay I'll do it for my parents then. [She steps on to the ledge and slowly moves across the ledge and makes it]
Mark: I'm doing this for Spirit. [He quickly runs across]
Heather: I'm glad you made it for my daughter.
Mark: And you know that I love your daughter.
Hope: And she is a great sister of ours.
Jocelyn: Mike do I have to go first?
Mike: I want to see you make it over their Jocelyn now let me see it right now!
Jocelyn: I love you! [She walks on to the ledge and then makes it across]
Mike: That is my wife and now it's time for your husband to dance across!
Jocelyn: Oh you're so sweet! [Mike gets on the ledge and he dances across the ledge]
Nancy: Oh brother this is getting so annoying now.
Jocelyn: Mike speed it up!
Mike: Alright I'll fast dance! [Then when he's in the middle theirs an explosion]
Mike: Whoa! [He holds on to something. It lasts for a while and then it's over and then he lets go of the pipe]
Mike: WHOO! I'm safe! [He jumps up and down on the middle of the ledge]
Jocelyn: Mike you really shouldn't jump up and down on that!
Mike: Why it's not like I'm going to break… [The middle piece of the ledge falls apart and Mike falls into the roaring water]
Johhny: Oh Mike hang on! [Mike keeps going underwater and tries to keep his head above water. He keeps trying to grab on to things but come loose]
Johhny: Mark do you have another rope?
Mark: Sorry I only carry one in my pocket!
Johhny: Mike keep your head above water.
Jocelyn: Mike hold on get that and get out please! [Mike is heading straight for where the water is heading]
Mike: Jocelyn I love you and the… [Drowning when he goes down the hole]
Jocelyn: [Sobbing]
Johhny: Mark what time is it?
Mark: It's 5:30 AM.

Chapter 70: Water coming our way
Back with the group in the hallway. People are looking at Ellen and her baby. Star is still fainted on the ground and Clair is putting a sponge on her.
Tracey: Oh finally out. Boy my hand kills.
Ellen: Now you know how your fathers hand was when I had you and your brothers.
Melissa: I think she had the baby now.
Hazel: Hey is it a boy or a girl?
Mrs. Black: It's a girl.
Tracey: What are you going to name her Mom?
Ellen: I was thinking of naming her after your Dad I'm sure he would have liked that.
Tracey: Mom you don't want to name her Peter it's so… boyish.
Ellen: Actually I was thinking of naming her your father's middle name Toni.
Tracey: I think that sounds good.
Star: How long have I been out?
Sam: A very long time Star ever since you saw it coming out.
Ellen: You mean her coming out.
Frank: Wow I'm really having some fun here.
Rudy: This is like really fun to be doing. [Then Hazel senses it's coming to her but misses the catch and bounces down the hallway]
Melissa: Hazel didn't you sense it coming near you at all?
Hazel: I did but I didn't catch it in time.
Frank: Well sorry Hazel but who ever drops it has to get it.
Hazel: It okay I'll find it.
Zeke: I'll come with you so you won't get lost. [The two go back down the hallway. Back with the other. The group is walking through the hall when the group starts to hear a big rumbling noise]
Nancy: Johhny what the heck is that noise?
Johhny: Everybody up on this thing!
Lady Tottington: But what is going on?
Johhny: There is water coming our way!
Jocelyn: Is it like how Mike died in that roaring flood of water? [Sobbing]
Johhny: Yes it's going to be exactly like that except we're not going to die.
Heather: Thank goodness it's not going to because I have two girls to ground.
Hope: Mom just forget about that for now this is more serious. [They all get up on the ledge to be safe]
Johhny: Now we all have to hold on to something.
Nancy: When? [Johhny looks down the hall and its coming fast]
Johhny: NOW!
Wendy: Oh my god! [Everybody holds on to something. The water comes bursting into the engine room it makes it hard for people to stay on the ledge and bars. Lady Tottington is holding on to a pole but her gloves her fall out of her pocket]
Lady Tottington: Oh no my gloves! [The gloves fall near May on the end and she sees them and catches them leaning very far down]
May: I got them! [Then theirs a big explosion and she falls off but is still hanging on with one hand]
May: WHOA! [May drops the gloves in the water and puts her other hand on the pole]
Hope: Hold on May.
Johhny: Somebody get her up here!
Heather: Peace you're closest to May you get her! [Peace carefully walks over to where she is hanging and bends down]
Peace: Grab on May!
May: I can't!
Peace: Your parents would want you to make it!
May: I'd rather live with them up in heaven! [She let's go of the ledge and falls to the water]
Peace: MAY!
Johhny: NO!
May: [SCREAMING!!] [She falls into the water and takes her through the waves. Then the last of the water comes and stops. But theirs fire all over the place]
Nancy: How could there be fire right now?!
Johhny: I think that there was gasoline in the water to.
Hope: You mean May died in that to?
Johhny: Come on be careful getting down you don't want to slip in the fire. [Back with the other Tricia in the room sitting down. Then she starts to hear another noise and its sounds different then the fire. Then she figures it out]
Spirit: Trish what is that sound?
Tricia: Theirs a giant wall of water coming to us?
Ellen: Oh you mean that we're going to drown? I just had Toni she's only been with me for twenty minutes. And it's the only time that I can see myself thin again!
Tricia: No this time we don't have to duck down and it's just like the fire.
Tyler: So it's not going to come into this room?
Tricia: That's right. Now get the children in here to be safe!
Gia: Guys get in here theirs water coming our way but we'll be safe! [The teenagers get in the room but Tricia and Gia notice that they don't see Zeke and Hazel come into the room]
Tricia: Hazel.
Gia: Zeke get your rear end in this room this is no time for jokes. [The noise gets louder and louder]
Frank: Zeke went with Hazel to find my ball it went down that hallway!
Tricia: We have to keep an eye on that hallway when we see them come back.
Hazel: I don't like the sound of that rumbling noise!
Zeke: Come on hurry! [Then two keep running to the doorway]
Gia: There they are!
Frank: I shouldn't have had them get the ball!
Melissa: It's not your fault Frank.
Gia: Come on Zeke pick up the pace like your running to the pizza man! [The water hits the corner of the wall]
Tricia: Come on! [The two keeps running and are close to the door. Zeke stops with Hazel]
Hazel: Zeke why are you stopping?!
Gia: Zachary get over here!
Zeke: I love you Hazel! [The flood of water hits them]
Both of them: [Screaming]
Tricia: HAZEL!
Gia: ZEKE!
Tyler: Get in the hallway guys. [Tyler pulls them into the hallway]
Tricia: Hazel. [Then it stops. Tricia runs out into the hallway]
Tricia: HAZEL!?
Tyler: It's no use they took her where ever they took her.
Gia: Tyler that was my brother that the wave took!
Tyler: Gia are you crying over you brother?
Gia: [Sobbing] Yes! Yes I am I promised my Mom and Dad to get him out of here with me!
Tricia: Then we'll have to find them!
Sophie: Trish we don't even know where they went!
Tricia: I know but if we hear them screaming then we'll follow them.
Gia: I'm going with you.
Tyler: So am I.
Sophie: We'll wait here for you.
Tricia: Sophie if we're not back in forty minutes you lead the way out.

As a busy day comes to an end, the 12-metre diameter antenna is seen here on its pad on the Chajnantor plateau, 5000 metres above sea level. It joins antennas from the other international ALMA partners, bringing the total number at the AOS to 16. Although this sounds like just another number, 16 is the number of antennas specified for ALMA to begin its first science observations, and is therefore an important milestone for the project.

text: Close Tweet0 Share0 Comment0 Share0 Share0 Stumble It0 Print0 More Campus Union Chick-fil-A Bowl: Frequently Asked Questions by hollyandersonsi Email Posted: Mon Dec. 31, 2012 Ah, the first round of the Chick-fil-A Bowl milkshake combine, like the first robin of spring. (Paul Abell/Abell Images)The 2012 Chick-fil-A Bowl is just hours away. We're sure you have so many questions. We're here to help. (For an X's and O's breakdown, click through to Andy Staples' game preview.)• What's all this, then? Many bowl games are played in the American South. Only one of them is dedicated to fried chicken, and only since 1998. We have never fully understood this. This year's incarnation of the bowl even comes with a heapin' side of poultry-themed sponsor betrayal! J'eggcuse, Monsieur Chapeau!• Where will this game be played? Atlanta's Georgia Dome, which also houses the Atlanta Falcons, Georgia State Panthers and the SEC championship game.• When is it on television? Coverage begins this evening at 7:30 p.m. ET on ESPN. Mike Patrick, Ed Cunningham and Jeannine Edwards are your scheduled announcers.• Whom does it feature? The CFA Bowl has matched the ACC and SEC for almost two decades now.• What about this year? SUSPICIOUSLY HIGH-ENTERTAINMENT MATCHUP FOR A DECEMBER BOWL GAME ALERT: Can the Georgia Dome contain the combined personality forces of LSU's Les Miles and Clemson's Dabo Swinney? We're fixin' to find out.• Does the bowl have a social media presence? The CFA Bowl is active on both Twitter and Facebook, and is among the better bowl games at navigating both.Hey @shaq - rumor has it you'll be at our game! Is this what you'll be wearing? #Rivalizer lockerz.com/s/272713887— Chick-fil-A Bowl (@chickfilabowl) December 28, 2012• What wacky activities will be on offer during bowl week? Atlanta rolls deep when it comes to fattening bowl activities: Among other diversions, players have been treated to a meat-eating contest at a Brazilian steakhouse and the bowl's annual milkshake combine.• What's the pick? Stewart Mandel likes the Tigers. So does this guy:Awesome pic sent to me by fighter pilot KC Sullivan. #geauxtigers #LSU #tigernation twitter.com/TommyMoffitt/s…— Tommy Moffitt (@TommyMoffitt) December 28, 2012• I will never stop calling it the Peach Bowl. Following bowl season this closely requires a lot of in-with-the-newness of spirit, but what you and your family choose to believe in the privacy of your home is entirely up to you. Can we at least make it so we can get peach milkshakes AT the Chick-fil-A Bowl? Finally, some common ground. Promoted Stories Comments

¿The IS-2 is going to be some kind of buildable Tiger, right?
Eastern Front is a free mod for Company of Heroes. Following the ethos of mimicking a Relic Entertainment expansion pack, Eastern Front has succeeded in adding two full new factions, the Soviet Red Army and the German Ostheer, packed with unique and exciting units to the existing armies - a feat never before achieved in the Company of Heroes world.
This is an article about the Soviet Union unit list.
Posted by Angstmann on Jan 23rd, 2009
Command Squad
Red Guard
Sharpshooter Team
PTRD Tank Hunter Team
Heavy Mortar Unit
ZIS-2 Unit
ML-20 Firebase
Doctrine Units:
Sniper Ace
Standard Rifles
All Conscripts now have Mosin Nagants.
Molotov Cocktails
All Conscripts now have petrol bombs.
Sturmovie Ingenery
All Ingenery now gain satchel charges.
SN-42 Body Armor
All Ingenery gain Elite Armor.
Artillery Spotter
Sharpshooter teams can now call down precisision artillery strikes.
Men against tanks
Increases PTRD team size to 4 and gives an additional PTRD.
Threadbreaker Shells
All ZIS Units now gain the Threadbreaker ability.
Phosphor Rounds
Heavy Mortars can now fire Incendiary Rounds.
All T-34s are now upgunned.
¿The IS-2 is going to be some kind of buildable Tiger, right?
Um, what rifles do the Conscripts have BEFORE Mosins?
i think they hawe the same mosins but afther that all of the squad haves mosins?
U guys are both wrong. if u see the video only half the conscripts of mosins. extra rifles gives all of the conscripts rifles
i think he is right but the funny thing is i was talking on coh chat about this like a year ago about how 1 man gets a gun the other ammo.
i remember that it was from call of duty finest hour and i went around stabbing with ammo
only half the consripts have* mosins
Even though you are so close to finishing, and thus I hate having to speak-up now, I have concerns with your chosen artillery pieces. The ML-20 Gun-Howitzer was not intergrated at the battalion level (which is the heighest organizational level your going to play at in CoH), but was more often deployed in seperate artillery regiments intergrated at the Corp and Field Army level. The same is true of the ZiS-3 (which is more of a light artillery-piece then a anti-tank gun) which were deployed in seperate battalions intergrated at the division level. My suggestion is to upgrade the ZiS-2 into the doctrine weapon and replace it with the M1942 45mm as the basic-level. I have no idea with what to replace the ML-20 yet, but as soon as I find a suggestion, I'll e-mail you guys.
who else thinks conscripts should be free in menpower cost and only cost population x3?
that depends on how good conscripts are. if they are really sucky, do barely any damage, and die really easily then they should.
Eh. He's partly right there. Russians had 45mm AT. If Germans Wehr have 50mm, I mean, cmon. / Even Americans got 57mm. And you'd give 76mm AT
to the russians as standard?
As for artillery, well, there's the Katchuya (PLEASE limit the max amount, as those are simply god-powerful. To 2 like Allied or 4?)
Or simply make Heavy Mortars be the artillery :) Mobile, vulnerable,
powerful for a mortar?
As for other 'real' artillery. The Wehr use 200mm arty as doctrine
off-map. Should be the same for the ML20 gun Howitzer, I feel.
(Same for americans, a short range static Howitzer is meep, sigh).
Calliopes aren't limited, and neither are Walking Stukas or Nebelwerfers.
yes caliopes are limited, you have max of 2
Could give Russians the Jeep. They got plenty from lend-lease.
Just limit it to 3 Max, or something, as it's not russian-made
(although they did get the license).
Side note :
personally, I think molotov coktails AND FLAMETHRWER engineers
should affect tanks... sigh. But that's just me :)

i agree with Felinewolfie, but not about the flamethrowers. Molotov Cocktails were invented by the Finnish in the Winter War. They would throw them into a tank's engine, lighting it aflame, burning the crew inside.
where can i download this mod?
not out yet bud just the beta (i think) but if you dont have it you cant get :(
im not sure but if the Conscripts take no pop cap wont ppl just rush with them every time?
secondly i think the Partisans should be like the panzers uint and be duployable from any empty building ???? yes no maybe?
Guys, I tried playing Soviets and was surprised that units cannot retreat. Is it done on purpose or it is a bug?
LOL it's definitely done on purpose bud :) you haven't read any of the briefing by Major Dankov have you ;)

So! One Ibuprofen down, one Saint Arnold's Lawnmower [been craving one for DAAAAYS] later...I am about to crash into my bed. Oh what fun I have discovered :D

nak so trying to be concise-- We made homemade bamboo inserts. Washed them once, then tested against another bamboo insert we have. They soaked up the same amount of water in about the same amount of time, so we proceeded and made a bunch.
Except now... they're all leaking. They've been washed about 4 times, so not fully prepped, but most of the way there. When they leak, we've noticed that when we pull them out of the diaper, the front half is soaked, but the back half is dry--- it's like the bamboo is not soaking the moisture up the length of the fabric.
Any tips? Any way to fix these? I realize they should have been fully prepped first, but if it initially soaked up enough, I'm not sure why it's not anymore... seems weird.
Help! Tell me I didn't just make 2 dozen useless inserts.
