half of our population is experiencing decreasing net happiness and satisfaction with life. When we look at what makes people engaged and fulfilled with their lives, everyone…seems to agree that the feeling of self-efficacy, feeling valued and effective and in your "strength zone" is critical–that the happiest, most successful people are those who have figured out ways to play to the best of themselves in each part of their lives…
There are two causes (…of dissatisfaction and unhappiness in life). One is an excess of choice…The second is that the advice given is misleading..If your goal in life is balance, you will be forever disappointing yourself.
Women are told to be good jugglers…supposed to be able to keep everything up in the air at once…challenge becomes, "How do I not drop anything?" The solutions offered are ideas like "better time management," or "learn to put up boundaries" or "learn to say no."…all of that advice is bad. The core skill of juggling is throwing
Questions about my future do remain unanswered, though that seems to bother other people more than me. It's funny how much some folks focus on numeric milestones: 90 days, 6 months, 1 year. Markers like those certainly have descriptive value when you look, after the fact, across a large number of people; interesting patterns emerge. But using those found patterns to dictate how I shape my own future is an inorganic endeavor in which I choose not to engage.
At the one-year mark, I still believe in the process of self-discovery, one that I hope never ceases. A process that, despite its open-endedness, doesn't preclude practical decision making when the moment is right, even if the call I make is thoroughly out of sync with the numeric milestones. A process that does not belong exclusively to people who have quit (or want to quit) their jobs.
when sensational things like Arundhati Roy justifying the reign of terror unleashed by the Naxals…happen then I am forced to break the silence…
The argument as to who is a "terrorist" and who is "misguided youth" is a never-ending one…that has been fought over so many times that it is not worth going into again. However what requires comment is that Naxals are anything but the "little guys fighting for justice pushed into a corner" that their PR people like Ms. Roy would have us believe. They are an organized army-like entity with a leadership structure whose principal goal is the destruction of the Indian state and the rule of law. They terrorize the populations they claim to protect, extort and appropriate resources from the dispossessed and engage in violence against people who do not represent the state. Their arms are sophisticated, they are financed by India's enemies and they are allied with SIMI tapping into their organization and their funding channels.

The law consists of abstract rules because…as human beings, judges are unable to foresee all of the long-term consequences of their decisions and may be unduly influenced by the immediate, visible effects of these decisions. The rules of law are designed in part to strike the proper balance between the interests of those who are seen and those who are not seen. The purpose of the rules is to enable judges to resist the emotionally engaging temptation to relieve the plight of those they can see and empathize with, even when doing so would be unfair to those they cannot see.
Calling on judges to be compassionate or empathetic is in effect to ask them to undo this balance and favor the seen over the unseen…if the difference…is that the bad judge focuses on the visible effects of his or her decisions while the good judge takes into account both the effects that can be seen and those that are unseen, then the compassionate, empathetic judge is very likely to be a bad judge.
In case you're confused about your religious beliefs, the awesome flowchart below, created by the good people at Holy Taco, should resolve all doubts…
False gods are everywhere, of course, and I'm sure you'll find a vendor to customize one to your needs. May we all be cult.
There are institutes where students walk in with their eyes open and know what to expect. And there are those where they walk in, blinded – misled, misguided and misinformed, by a campaign where media, regulatory agencies and academia become willing accomplices…
As we scanned the ads, spoke to experts, affected parties and counselors, we realised that one name cropped up the most – IIPM. We decided to investigate…What our investigation unravelled left us cold. Here is an institution that enjoys all the privileges of an academic institution (according to IT authorities, it claimed exemptions citing Section 10(23C) (VI) of the Income Tax act, 1961) with zero responsibility and accountability. Here is an institution that brazenly uses its power and reach to make unsubstantiated claims that play with the lives of students and parents alike.

When I got to Bombay, I found similar stories from among the business journalist fraternity; I once worked with a colleague who, first thing each morning, sifted through the invitations to press conferences and called up the PROs to ask what the 'gift' was. He had refined the thing to a fine art — he would attend only those PCs where there was cash or gift cheques on offer.
At some point, newspapers figured out that journalists were making money while managements earned nothing — and lo, Page 3 was born and with it, a cash-and-carry business paradigm where social climbers paid newspaper managements, who in turn meticulously chronicled their appearances at various inane parties [there is at least one party animal on the Mumbai circuit I know of, whose 'celebrity status' is entirely a Page 3 concoction].
So I guess this story merely reflects the logical culmination of the space for sale aspect of journalism.
When I look at the responses, the common theme is that starting a startup was like I said, but way more so. People just don't seem to get how different it is till they do it. Why? The key to that mystery is to ask, how different from what? Once you phrase it that way, the answer is obvious: from a job. Everyone's model of work is a job. It's completely pervasive. Even if you've never had a job, your parents probably did, along with practically every other adult you've met.
Unconsciously, everyone expects a startup to be like a job, and that explains most of the surprises. It explains why people are surprised how carefully you have to choose cofounders and how hard you have to work to maintain your relationship…It explains why the ups and downs are surprisingly extreme…But it also explains why the good times are surprisingly good: most people can't imagine such freedom. As you go down the list, almost all the surprises are surprising in how much a startup differs from a job.

As Tom Watson, the founder of IBM said:
"Would you like me to give you a formula for success? It's quite simple, really. Double your rate of failure. You are thinking of failure as the enemy of success. But it isn't at all. You can be discouraged by failure — or you can learn from it. So go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can. Because, remember that's where you will find success."
Here's another way to think about it. Once I was trying to fix a toilet and water began to blast upward from a fitting. The building Super, who was watching me, commented, "You know the difference between a professional plumber and an amateur?"
"No," I said, frantically searching for a towel.
"The professional makes as many mistakes as the amateur," he said, swinging a wrench onto the main valve and closing off the fountain, "The difference is, a professional fixes them faster."
If you have some space in your home or office premises, it probably makes lots of sense to grow these plants because research says that there is a 42% probability of increasing blood oxygen by 1% if one stays inside a building housing these plants for 10 hours.
And Kamal isnt the only person saying this. Earlier, a study conducted by NASA also suggested that certain houseplants (including Bamboo Palm and Snake Plant) can remove as much as 87% of indoor air pollutants within 24 hours.

Doniger's work has been challenged for years by the Hindu rightwing…Perhaps what really disconcerts and offends those who throw literal or metaphorical eggs at the professor is that she lays claim to a far wider corpus of knowledge than is commonly found to be acceptable…
Doniger is threatening because of her immense scholarship. She's the "outsider" who knows as much, and in many cases, more, about the Hindu scriptures and traditions than her most fierce opponents…
"This is a history, not the history, of the Hindus," Doniger emphasises; and this is perhaps why she is seen in some Indian circles as so dangerous. By its very title, The Hindus: An Alternative History suggests that Hinduism has several competing histories rather than one sanctioned version. For today's religious fundamentalists, this is a terrifying idea that threatens the authorised version of history they would prefer to preach, uphold and impose.
So far the new technology has been called the "e-reader," a term obviously picked by engineers, not poets. In literary terms it's a transbook, by which I mean that it is the book which can contain all books. Why are so many writers so afraid of this staggeringly wonderful possibility? A book is a singular object that can contain many voices, but the transbook has the potential to be a singular object containing all voices. It is not just another kind of media; it is the dream of ultimate text.
We are still in early days, but it is obvious where the transbook is headed: It will eventually provide access to all text that is non-copyright, and to the purchase of every book in or out of "print."..
Kindle 2 isn't really about what we may or may not want as readers and writers. It's about what the book wants to be. And the book wants to be itself and everything. It wants to be a vast abridgment of the universe that you can hold in your hand. It wants to be the transbook.
It's 4pm and you are fidgeting in your seat, trying to ignore your growling tummy. A colleague passes over a couple of burfis, adding 280kcal to your day. Resistance is evidently futile. So you think you might as well take a tea break.
"There are three main reasons (why) people feel hungry in the afternoon. They missed lunch or it was not satisfying; they are bored and want to munch mindlessly; or someone else is snacking,"…
"Snacking per se isn't bad,…it won't make you fat. In fact, snacking can increase your metabolic rate and stimulate your body to burn more fat." As long as you are smart about it, you can avoid gaining weight…
What you want is 100-150kcal with a good balance of nutrients. "Print a list of healthy snack options and keep it handy. So that when the craving strikes, you know what to order,"

The workplace cannot afford further development in faster, more efficient communications. Human beings are not designed to work that way.

Clinique Touch Base for Eyes Reviews
great all the timeI'm hitting the bottom of mine- this is really nice to use under eyeshadow or alone for a subtle effect. I like that this is a light creamy formula; it goes on lighter than most eyeshadows and blends nicely. It does help keep shadow from creasing, and to stay vibrant longer. When I'm in a hurry I'll swipe this all over my eye area and go out with just a little shimmer. It just takes a couple seconds to apply with a finger. I've had this for more than a year and it's still working great. — 9 years, 1 month agomidori | 45 reviews
Hate It!!This product is not good at all. It does crease and it is heavy. Also it dried out on me and I didnt even have it for that long! Terrible — 9 years, 1 month agoKelliE663 | 2 reviews

great!this is a good eye base it works well and does keep the eye shadows on longer! i liked it a lot and if you try it make sure you close it right because it can dry up.. other than that i recommend it!!! — 9 years, 1 month agoswtnss | 33 reviews
fantastic productI love Clinique Touch Base for Eyes! It keeps my eye shadow on for hours! — 9 years, 1 month agotravel34 | 1 reviews
"Eye" can't live without this....I have use Clinique's touch base for years and it is one of my few make up products I WON'T do without and will substitute with something else. It is great alone (for those days when you just want a light color or base). But is is amazing when used with eye shadow. The eye shadow lasts all day and look as fresh (and crease free) as when it was first applied. A very little amount is all you need. So the product lasts a very long time! — 9 years, 2 months agomacendan | 8 reviews

Clinique Touch Base for EyesThis really works, I have dry skin and my eye shadow usually doesn't go on smooth. This really felt good going on and made it easier to apply the shadow. — 9 years, 2 months agopdudbarrs | 4 reviews
Great base!I used this product for over 10 years and loved it. I have just recently switched to another brand only because I love it as well and it's about a third of the price. This is a great base for eyeshadow, but if you don't close the compact tightly it will dry out in a hurry. — 9 years, 2 months agokrudder30 | 189 reviews
Brightens and CoversThis product rocks!!! As you get older, the skin on your eyelids start to show freackes, veins, etc. A thin coat of touch base made my eyes look brighter and totally younger. You wouldn't need eyeshow for daytime with this product, but for night it extends the wear. I love it! — 9 years, 2 months agoahay12 | 10 reviews
Great Eye PrimerI used to use this as an eye primer under my eyeshadow. It really helped keep my eye makeup in place and stop it from doing a disappearing act or settling into the crease. The only problem was that the touch base used to harden so you'd have to apply baby oil into the mix to give it to proper consistency to apply to your eyes. Kinda a hassle, but I hear they reformulated the touch base so i'm sure if this is the case anymore. — 9 years, 2 months agoShelleybean | 144 reviews
My shadow saver!Since I am the not-so-proud owner of the world's slickest eyelids, I knew I needed a base. Clinique, being my brand of choice, recommended this to me, and I've never looked elsewhere. The negative reviews on this product point out how easily it drys out--but the label and website warn that the case needs to be shut TIGHTLY after use (listen for that satisfying click!). Don't have it open any longe...read morer than you have to. Mine have lasted until they're gone (several months) with no problem. Another warning: you really don't need very much of this product. A little bit goes a long way, and too much becomes difficult to spread out on your lid because it dries fast for extra-long staying power. — 5 years, 11 months agoMMTaylor1207 | 14 reviews

Question: Viscosity determination with a rotating cylinder viscometer
Viscosity determination with a rotating-cylinder viscometer, it is desired to measure the viscosities of sucrose solutions of about 60% concentration by weight at about 20oC with a rotating-cylinder viscometer such as that shown in Fig. 3.5-1. This instrument has an inner cylinder 4.000 cm in diameter surrounded by a rotating concentric cylinder 4.500 cm in diameter. The length L is 4.00 cm. The viscosity of a 60% sucrose solution at 20oC is about 57 cp, and its density is about 1.29 g/cm3. On the basis of past experience it seems possible that end effects will be important, and it is therefore decided to calibrate the viscometer by measurements on some known solutions of approximately the same viscosity as those of the unknown sucrose solutions. Determine a reasonable value for the applied torque to be used in calibration if the torque measurements are reliable within 100 dyne/cm and the angular velocity can be measured within 0.5%. What will be the resultant angular velocity?

Charger IC supports range of cell types
Post a comment
Milpitas, Calif. - When interfaced with a microcontroller, Linear Technology Corp.'s LTC4008, a 4-amp multicell, multichemistry battery pack charger IC, is said to be capable of charging nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride and sealed lead-acid batteries as well as lithium-ion types.
The general-purpose controller enables high-power battery charger designs of only 5.6 cm2, which according to LTC is 50 percent smaller than conventional high-power battery charger designs. In addition, high-efficiency operation from high input voltage and low-dropout power conversion allows a designer to optimize the choice of an ac/dc adapter based on size, cost and weight, the company said.
The LTC4008 uses I/O signals for simple reporting of the system status. A microcontroller can then use the same signals for precision gas gauging, power management and comprehensive display of the charging condition. The charger chip drives external MOSFETs synchronously to achieve over 95 percent efficiency even when operating from high input voltage and delivering up to 4 A of charge current, LTC said.
Charging current is programmable to plus/minus 4 percent accuracy with external resistors. The device's ac adapter current limit allows an end product to operate simultaneously as the battery pack is being charged at the maximum rate without overloading the ac adapter. A thermistor sensor input will suspend charging if an unsafe temperature condition is detected and will automatically resume charging when battery temperature returns to within safe limits. The input voltage range is 6 to 28 V; the output range is 3 to 28 V.
The LTC4008 is packaged in a 20-pin SSOP. In lots of 1,000, pricing starts at $3.70. A data sheet can be found at www.linear.com/prod/data

Does your family have a collection of movies that you watch over and over without getting tired of them? We do. Being the relatively low tech family we are, we don't buy DVDs, but rather wait until our favorites come on TV. Remember doing that as a kid? Every Christmas I waited for Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz, barely able to contain my excitement. I also loathed the original King Kong, which everyone else seemed to want to watch. In our house, when these come on tv, out comes the popcorn and we all cuddle up on the couch to enjoy them.
Our family has a top 10 for our favorite movies, and this week you get the first 5 (in no particular order)
1. The American President - my husband being the action flick guy that he is, surprised me when he announced that he liked this movie. We've watched it so much we can recite the lines.
2. Erin Brockovich - the lines in this movie leave us rolling, even though we've seen it many times. Our favorite? "I just went out there and performed sexual favors. Six hundred and thirty-four blow jobs in five days... I'm really quite tired..."
3. StepMom - Never, ever, fails to make me cry. "I had their past, you can have their future."
4. Ice Age - Even Hubs, who doesn't typically, like cartoons, loves this movie! In fact, we loved this one so much that we DID buy the DVD.
5. Independence Day - aliens, action, and Wil Smith to make it funny. What more could we ask for?
To be continued next week with the next top five movies...three of them are trilogies!

JIM LEHRER: Now Margaret Warner looks at what the Yemen terrorism connections mean for Guantanamo detainees.
MARGARET WARNER: Ever since taking office, President Obama has worked to honor his pledge to shut the prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. But his January 2010 deadline has already slipped. Now the apparent connection between the suspect in the Christmas Day plot and an al-Qaida offshoot in Yemen has raised a new hurdle.
Nearly 100 Yemenis are still at Guantanamo, about half the total inmate population remaining there. Nearly half of those Yemenis have been cleared for release. But that was before yesterday's announcement from the president.
U.S. PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: Given the unsettled situation, I have spoken to the attorney general and we've agreed that we will not be transferring additional detainees back to Yemen at this time.
MARGARET WARNER: For retired U.S. Navy Commander Kirk Lippold, the decision came not a moment too soon.
COMMANDER KIRK LIPPOLD (RET.), U.S. Navy: I'm actually very pleased that the administration chose to do that. I think it shows that they recognize that the Yemeni government right now is having a very difficult time in maintaining control throughout the country.
MARGARET WARNER: Lippold was skipper of the USS Cole in October of 2000 when it was attacked by al-Qaida suicide bombers off the coast of Yemen. Seventeen American sailors were killed.
COMMANDER KIRK LIPPOLD: It would be unwise for us to return people back to that country, if in fact they have the potential to return back to al-Qaida and begin to fight on the battlefield.
MARGARET WARNER: In fact, only some 20 Yemenis have been released to date from Guantanamo. And Benjamin Wittes at the Brookings Institution in Washington says there's a reason for that.
BENJAMIN WITTES, Brookings Institution: The problem is, in short, that you have a group of people, a very large percentage of the total population of Guantanamo, many of whom are, from the U.S. government's point of view, pretty scary people, and a country that is very badly positioned to manage the risks that they pose in absorbing them.
MARGARET WARNER: And that, says Wittes, has meant that Yemenis have always been treated differently from others set for release at Guantanamo.
BENJAMIN WITTES: In addition to the scary Yemenis, there are a group of people there who, had they been Saudi, had they been from, you know, some other countries, would have gone home a long time ago.
MARGARET WARNER: Indeed, Yemen is a country of 22 million with a fragile government, facing secession in the south and rebellion in the north, not to mention crippling poverty.
It's proven fertile ground for al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, the group claiming responsibility for the Christmas Day bombing attempt. Only one released Yemeni has returned to the battlefield, but many former Saudi Guantanamo detainees are now in al-Qaida's leadership there.
BENJAMIN WITTES: They went to Yemen for a reason. And the reason is that the long arm of the Saudi state and the long arm of any state has a lot more trouble reaching you in Yemen than it does in other places.
MARGARET WARNER: Washington attorney George Clarke represents two Yemenis at Guantanamo. He says decisions on who gets released should continue to be made on a case-by-case basis.
GEORGE CLARKE: I think both the Bush administration and the Obama administration tried to release people that they thought were not dangerous to the United States and — or its interests. And I think that that analysis should continue into the future, as opposed to sort of some sort of blanket.
MARGARET WARNER: But, after what President Obama said Tuesday, Clarke says it isn't clear what happens next for one of his clients who had been slated for release.
GEORGE CLARKE: I don't — I honestly don't know what happens to him. I mean, I think that's part of the problem. We know that there's a group of people who the Obama administration wants to move back to Yemen. And I think, with — clearly, with this blanket prohibition, they're not going to be going anywhere for a while.
MARGARET WARNER: It's not just the fate of individual inmates that hangs in the balance. The president's temporary ban doesn't yet resolve larger politically charged questions that he and Congress have to wrestle with.
Republicans have argued the president was wrong from the start on Guantanamo. In a recent letter, Congressman Pete Hoekstra, ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, said the Christmas Day incident requires Mr. Obama to abandon his — quote — "brazen and naive pledge to close Guantanamo Bay."
Hoekstra followed up Sunday on ABC's "This Week."
REP. PETE HOEKSTRA, R-Mich.: The core group of al-Qaida on the Arabian Peninsula is formed by former Gitmo detainees. These are people that were held in Gitmo, have been returned, and have now gone back to the battlefield.
MARGARET WARNER: Democratic Congresswoman Jane Harman, chairman of a House subcommittee on terrorism risk assessment, takes issue with that.
REP. JANE HARMAN, D-Calif.: It's way too simplistic. It is true that there was a connection between the Christmas Day bomber and Yemen. But Yemen is not the whole ball game. And I think that Guantanamo affords a recruiting tool that is unique worldwide to al-Qaida and other bad guys.
MARGARET WARNER: Harman does support the temporary freeze on repatriating Yemeni detainees, but says indefinitely holding them is not a permanent solution to this thorny problem.
One of the alternatives is to transfer the Yemeni prisoners, even those cleared for release, to a federal facility in Thomson, Illinois. The prison was chosen recently by the Obama administration to take detainees who are being prosecuted or can't be released elsewhere.
But that prospect remains murky, since it's unclear when or if Congress will fund the security upgrades needed at the prison.
REP. JANE HARMAN: I think the administration is sorting that out right now. This wrinkle about Yemen is fairly recent, and it is very serious. But we're going to have find — they're going to have to find another answer.
MARGARET WARNER: Delay in finding an answer could pose another danger, warns Benjamin Wittes, that the courts could order the government to free those cleared for release in the U.S., if no other country will take them.
BENJAMIN WITTES: You could imagine a situation in which the government has a choice between Yemen and Cleveland. And that's, you know, a very unappealing choice from the government's point of view.
MARGARET WARNER: It could be a politically hazardous choice as well, given the passions already aroused by talk of releasing any Gitmo detainees anywhere here at home.

All About the Booty + Light Erotic
Group Shoot
NiNPAR 2013
Sunday, August 25th
6/7/13 Update:
Yes, this WAS "A Focus on Feet" but I changed it to something much more sexy!
5/15/13 Update:
*PLEASE NOTE: I have had to change some dates and times as well as many other info on ALL of my group shoots I had prepared. Please double check the day and time before you sign up, as well as read through fully.
These changes are due to NiNPAR standard policies that I was not aware of before posting these. Sorry for any inconvenience.
*subject to additional changes per policy changes for NiNPAR event*
What's better than booty shots!? I happen to be a HUGE fan of butt shots...with a nice butt anway. I know it's one of my best assets and enjoy making it look good. Of course it will be a mixture of posing. But I'll have a few wardrobe items that in particular make the booty look great.
With the way my body has changed through age 24 & 25, I've been lucky enough to really get a more womanly figure and have a few extra pounds go to the butt & thighs which I LOVE! :) Let's have some fun with curves!
This will include light erotic posing. I will do lots of bent over on hands and knees type shoots too. I'm also okay with close up shots and such.
The shoot will not include any sexual gestures or allow for anyone else to touch my feet.
**To be clear, "Light Erotic" will include open leg shots, bent over shots and okay with different close-ups. I will not be touching myself or implying anything sexual.
It will be a "free-for-all" type shoot but I will constantly go through and look at each photographer directly (in order of sitting to make sense). Plus will do plenty of poses looking down or looking away that allow for all to get a great shot at once. Due to the nature of the shoot, there will only be a max of 7 photographers.
This event is taking place at NINPAR, you must be signed up for NINPAR to participate, NINPAR sign up information is at: http://www.ninpar.com
The price starts at $30 for first 48 hour special; increases to $35 til 8/15/2013; then increases to $40 up until 8/22/2013. Full commercial model release & 2257 form are available for an extra charge of $10 each. There are no refunds.
I will accept last minute cash payments at the rate of $45 *IF* the event is not sold out.
Meeting place
Please see this map for meeting place. We will meet at the area marked near the pavillion right at 11:00 AM and start ASAP. I will be ready to shoot. Depending on light and weather, we will either use a nice patch of grass with wooded background or we will shoot at the pavillion. We'll look around right away and pick the best spot nearby. *If it is raining,please just meet at the pavillion* We can move to different spots for each oufit if the group desires. Please bare in mind that others may be using the space. I cannot guarantee a perfect location but promise we'll make it work! ^_^
And this is clearly stated so if you are running late or are waiting somewhere else, I cannot be responsible for you missing the shoot. I always try to exchange phone numbers for texting at the event with everyone I am shooting with to please also feel free to message me your number in case you have any last minute questions or if I have to make any last minute changes.
Estimated actual shooting time is 50 minutes due to travel time and paperwork.
Please feel free to email me if you have any questions:
There are no refunds due to the nature of the event and booking methods. IF, however, I am unable to attend this group for ANY reason of my own, you WILL receive a refund.
*This event is being organized & run by Ivy Lee.

The 25 Best Cigars of 2008
From a pool of nearly 700 cigars tasted by our panel in 2008, 25 stood out from the rest, and from that group one rose above all the others. In the fall of 2008, we pored over the top-rated cigars from those 700 and selected 45 of the best. Our tasting coordinator purchased them at retail, rebanded each with a new code, and our tasting panel rated them again. At the conclusion of that test, we chose the dozen highest-rated cigars, again had them rebanded, and smoked them anew to crown a victor. Here are the results of that tournament of champions, starting with the top 10 in reverse order.

ptr 91 ?
I was offered a ptr 91 in a trade and it has the German paratrooper stock on it but I have never seen one and I am lost as to the value. What would one be worth

Attachment 116963
Here's a ballpark.
Are they good rifles, accurate, reliable
I've only taken about 10 shots with something similar. I don't recall any major malfunctions. It was accurate enough. I enjoyed it.
Although I do remember someone managed to wedge a bullet in the mag backwards. Still not sure how that happened.
Picked up today and it does look nice
PTR91's are made on a combination of HK and new machinery. They bill themselves as having better barrels than HK. I think not, HK used hammer forged barrels that were tough as nails. Heavier and thicker does not mean better.
You need to get an understanding of the roller delayed locking system. There is no gas system to foul but there is a delicate balance inherent to the design. Look up "bolt gap" and "false gap". Get a set of oversize rollers from robertrtg.com. Someday they will be needed.
Chamber flutes are of the most misunderstood aspects of the system. The flutes permit gasses to escape along the body of the case. The case floats on a cushion of gas. HK flutes the chambers quite deeply. This is a characteristic that balances with the thick case walls of the 7.62 X 51 NATO spec ammo. It is also a feature that makes them unsuitable for many .308 loads. PTR has made barrels with a wide variety of flute depths. The deeply fluted ones act like HK's and only like the NATO ammo. The shallowly fluted ones have a definite bias toward US commercial .308 and do not like the NATO ammo.
CLEAN THE CHAMBER LIKE CRAZY. The key to reliability in these rifles is having a clean chamber.
I would start with NATO spec ammo and see if that performs well. If not (and the chamber is clean) move to .308 ammo. It will likely have a definite preference.
Get a stuck case removal tool. You will eventually need one if you shoot .308. Not a big deal, tool is affordable and easy to use.
Steel case ammo seems to work pretty well on most of these rifles. I prefer Silver Bear as it does not gum up the flutes like lacquer or polymer coated cases can. If you use lacquered cases, give the chamber flutes extra TLC (gasoline cuts the lacquer well).
Stock up on the Aluminum magazines while they are sill affordable. They were as cheap as $1 at one time. $5 is more common now. When they are gone, they are gone.

TENS of thousands of children across southeast Queensland are set to swelter in classrooms without airconditioning today as temperatures are predicted to hit 39C.
An investigation by The Courier-Mail has revealed the number of classrooms that don't have airconditioning in the Brisbane and Ipswich areas.
But the Queensland Government says airconditioning is the responsibility of individual state schools in the southeast.
Principal associations warn every classroom in Queensland - not just those in the far west and north - should be airconditioned, as children struggle to learn in stifling heat.
Some principals said yesterday they would be banning outdoor play today in a bid to stop children suffering heat-related injuries.
There is no temperature limit in Queensland for which children can be sent home and Education Minister John-Paul Langbroek said yesterday there was no plan to introduce one.
Mr Langbroek said his Government would not fund airconditioning for southeast schools.
"If school communities want to use funding to install airconditioning then that's entirely up to them, but I don't support a one-size-fits-all approach," he said.
Education Queensland policy is for students to attend school unless they have a "reasonable excuse".
A Courier-Mail investigation, which involved contacting about 245 of the 259 state schools and outdoor education facilities in the area covering Brisbane and Ipswich, found at least 135 did not have airconditioning in all classrooms.
CHERMSIDE: Westfield hopes to fix air-con, toilets, water today
The most up-to-date figures show about 20 have no airconditioning in general classrooms, while about 40 have less than one in five classrooms airconditioned.
About 70 schools had every classroom airconditioned, while about 40 are unknown because principals declined to answer questions.
The rest were between 21 per cent and 99 per cent airconditioned, with P&Cs footing most or some of the bill for many schools that were fully airconditioned.
P&C Queensland office manager Madonna Stewart said all students should have a physically comfortable learning environment, but it was up to individual P&Cs as to whether it was a priority for them, with some raising funds to install airconditioning.
Brisbane Catholic Education communications manager John Phelan said the vast majority of schools had some airconditioned facilities, but only a limited number were fully airconditioned.
Independent Schools Queensland executive director David Robertson said many independent schools were already closed for school holidays and those still operating had strategies in place to cope with the heat.
Queensland Teachers Union president Kevin Bates said in an ideal world all classrooms would have climate control.
DETE deputy director-general Lyn McKenzie said the airconditioning of state schools in the hottest and most humid parts of Queensland had been a departmental priority in recent years, with the Cooler Schools program airconditioning more than 3500 classrooms in 390 government schools to 2007.
At Nundah State School, worried mothers Sanela Becic and Daniella Mawlood may keep their children home today rather than have them face class in stifling heat.
Ms Becic's daughters Belma, 5, and Selma, 7, and her son Selmir, 8, and Ms Mawlood's daughter Ahvina, 7, all attend the school in Brisbane's north.
The school, in the Clayfield electorate of Queensland Treasurer Tim Nicholls, is one of 20 in the metropolitan area covering Brisbane and Ipswich with no airconditioning in any of its traditional classrooms. One computer lab, however, is airconditioned.
Ms Becic said she would refuse to take her children to school if she felt they would be safer at home.
"If it is as hot as they say it will be (today) we will keep them home," she said.
"Airconditioning is such a ray of relief. I don't think the teachers can pay that much attention to each of the kids to make sure they are drinking enough water, for example."
With many households having airconditioning, Ms Mawlood said children wouldn't understand why they didn't have it at school.
Both mums "love" the school, but agreed "airconditioning is a must" and said money should be spent installing it in every classroom.

Colon Cancer
Cancer of Rectum or Anus
Once a person has the symptom of bright red blood and there is a possibility of rectal or anal cancer how long would it be before other symptoms would appear - diarrhea/constipation/thin stools, abdominal pain, obstruction, frequency/urgency, etc.? In other words how long can there be bleeding before other symptoms?
Bright red blood coming out from the rectum may be your only sign for possible rectal or anal cancer. As such, if you are experiecing this type of symptom, you need to see your attending physician urgently.

2AM's Seulong couldn't hide his joy when he met actress Shin Min Ah on Strong Heart.In the episode that aired on the third, Shin Min Ah guest starred to promote her upcoming drama with Lee Seung Gi called My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox. If you're a big Seulong fan, you must know that he is obsessed with Shin Min Ah. Not only does he talk about her constantly, but I remember watching the HahaMong Show where it was revealed that he has a photo album of her on his computer. He sat right behind her on the show and couldn't act more like a fanboy. He wasn't able to look at her in the eyes or say many things. Kang Ho Dong, being the matchmaker he is, couldn't help but tease him. He made Shin Min Ah turn around to look at Seulong, and of course, shy Seulong couldn't handle it. Seulong said to her, "I beg of you to not turn around. I get goosebumps throughout my whole body." He also added later, "I don't watch the coffee CF with her and Won Bin. She looks beautiful but there is a kiss scene and I can't handle it." Shin Min Ah replied, "I heard (about him liking her) about it and I was thankful. I remember those kinds of things." Seulong also made sure to watch the episode on TV when it aired. Fellow 2AM member Jo Kwon tweeted a picture of Seulong watching the show. Jo Kwon wrote, "Ah lol Seulong hyung succeeds!!!!!!! lol He is monitoring and his back is happy." He must really like her. What a cute fanboy he is.

Mike Green: A True (Fantasy) Team PlayerApril 3, 2009
Washington Capitals defenceman Mike Green has been having a dream season.
His offensive numbers are striking.
He's 24th in the league for goals scored (with 31).
That puts him tied with none other than Sidney Crosby.
Considering that scoring goals is basically Sid's only job, and Green, as a defenseman, has keeping the opposition from scoring as a number-one priority, it's even more impressive.
And he gets it done at both ends of the ice, as he has a plus-minus of plus-24.
He also managed to break the NHL record for consecutive goals for a defenseman, scoring in eight-straight games back in February. He scored ten times during that span, including five power-play tallies.
The record means that no other defenseman has done that. Ever.
Unsurprisingly, his contributions at both end of the ice have the whispers of 'Norris Trophy Favorite' are increasing in volume. Not bad for a 23-year-old defenseman playing in just his third full season in the NHL.
Green broke the thirty-goal mark April 1, against the New York Islanders, becoming just the eighth defenseman to reach that plateau, and first since Washington's Kevin Hatcher in 1992-93. His two third-period tallies both came on the power play, and were the game-tying and game-winning goals respectively.
His penchant for game-winning goals being the origination of his nickname 'Game Over'.
But for 'Game Over' Green, these goals had another special significance. "I promised my buddy back home that I'd get 'em (the two goals) tonight." It seems that during an IM chat, Green learned his buddy's "fantasy pool was struggling," and so he promised to notch a couple tallies. A man of his word, he came through for his teammates and his buddy that very night.
For those of us, such as myself that have had him in our fantasy team since last season, we can truly appreciate his 'team spirit'. On the ice, or in the fantasy leagues, this season is a dream come true.

NNEDV Honors Outstanding Supporters of the Cause
October 6, 2010
October 5, 2010 - NNEDV honored four outstanding allies in the movement to end domestic violence. The awards were presented at the annual "Take A Stand" reception as part of recognizing October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Victor Rivas Rivers, NNEDV's spokesperson, actor, athlete, author and activist, presented some of the awards and shared his compelling personal story of domestic violence.
U.S. Senator Mike Crapo (R-Id.) and U.S. Representative Gwen Moore (D-4-Wis.) received NNEDV's Visionary Leadership Award for their longstanding support on Capitol Hill. Mary Kay Inc. and The Mary Kay Foundation were honored with the Corporate Stewardship Award for setting an example for how corporations can help end domestic violence. SafePlace and the MIJAS Program, a local domestic violence program in Olympia, Wash., received the Spirit of Advocacy Award for its innovative work to serve survivors of domestic violence.
"We congratulate and thank all of the honorees for taking a stand against domestic violence and supporting survivors," said Sue Else, NNEDV's president. "The work of these individuals and organizations is truly making a difference in the lives of so many survivors of domestic violence."
Sen. Crapo has made domestic violence a top priority in the U.S. Senate. He staunchly protects and proposes to increase vital funding for the Violence Against Women Act and the Victims of Crime Act. His track record shows that he is deeply committed to helping programs that serve survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence and stalking. Sen. Crapo works closely with the Idaho Coalition Against Domestic Violence and regularly visits domestic violence shelters throughout Idaho.
"Senator Crapo is a true ally in the U.S. Senate," said Else. "He understands the importance of ending domestic abuse, and his actions match his words. We are so grateful for Senator Crapo's outstanding work on behalf of survivors of domestic violence."
Rep. Moore has been a devoted supporter of victims of domestic violence since joining the House of Representatives in 2004. She introduced the bill to reauthorize the Family Violence Prevention and Services Act, which funds life-saving domestic violence shelters and programs. The congresswoman has made increasing funding for the Violence Against Women Act and the Family Violence Prevention and Services Act a top priority. She also introduced a bill to improve services for victims of domestic and sexual violence receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families.
"Congresswoman Moore is an unwavering champion for survivors of domestic violence," said Else. "She is one of our most vocal supporters and an exemplary member of Congress. We thank Representative Moore for her visionary leadership."
Mary Kay Inc. and The Mary Kay Foundation accepted the Corporate Stewardship Award. Since 2003, The Mary Kay Foundation has partnered with NNEDV to provide critical support of its programs. The Foundation has contributed nearly $1 million to Amy's Courage Fund, which goes directly to help survivors in the aftermath of escaping abuse. Each year, The Mary Kay Foundation also awards 150 grants of $20,000 each to local domestic violence programs totaling $3 million annually.
"Mary Kay Inc. and The Mary Kay Foundation are incredible partners in ending domestic violence," said Else. "We are most fortunate for their generosity and support. The resources that Mary Kay and The Mary Kay Foundation are providing are literally helping to save lives."
NNEDV's Spirit of Advocacy Award this year went to SafePlace and the MIJAS Program, a domestic violence program in Olympia, Wash. A group of Latina women opened a restaurant where survivors of domestic violence work and become empowered to live lives free from abuse. The restaurant provides job training and experience to survivors taking steps to rebuild their lives.
"SafePlace is really an amazing local program doing such innovative work," said Else. "The spirit of advocacy is alive and well at SafePlace and the MIJAS Program. This organization is helping survivors get back on their feet and live happier, safer lives."
More than 250 people gathered at NNEDV's annual event last night to recognize the honorees and commemorate Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Held at the National Museum of Women in the Arts, the event urged attendees to take a stand for survivors of domestic violence. Guests were encouraged to wear festive footwear for the cause.

Astronomy Night at the Peak returns April 1
By Tom Di Camillo
Director of Media & Community Events
PINAL COUNTY, Ariz. - Central Arizona College's Astronomy Night at the Peak returns to the Signal Peak Campus this Friday evening, April 1, when Dr. Wayne Pryor takes travelers on a Search for Other Earths.
In addition to Pryor's outdoor presentation, CAC's astronomy night will feature a look inside STARLAB with Katy Wilkins, along with a variety of new family-friendly events entitled Frozen Moo & You, Make Your Alien & Eat It Too, and Poisonous Insects and Creative Plants.
CAC and Sodexo, the food service provider for the college, again are teaming up to offer an evening of affordable family dining under the constellations of the Arizona nighttime sky.
Dinner will be served from 5-6 p.m., while the STARLAB presentations and family science events will run continuously from 6:30-9:30 p.m. Pryor's presentation on the Search for Other Earths will take place from approximately sundown until 9:30 p.m.
The new family-friendly science events will be held in the C. Leroy Hoyt Hall Science/Engineering Building (Building S). It is located adjacent to the astronomy viewing area.
Dixie Kullman, CAC's professor of human anatomy, physiology and microbiology, will coordinate the Frozen Moo & You and Make Your Alien & Eat It Too events.
"Participants will learn how to lower the freezing point of water and how ice cream forms as a solution freezes," she said of the naturally cool idea of frozen moo. "They may personalize their tasty treat to tantalize their taste buds. Travel to the observatory will propel their imagination to other worlds and the potential for frozen poles or perhaps frozen planets."
In making an alien, genetic cupcakes will foster imagination about the participant's heritage, exploring how humans are similar to one another and how they are different.
Marilyn Edelman, CAC's professor of general science, explores poisonous insects and creative plants that may seem otherworldly. Participants will get microscopic views of poisonous insects while also having the opportunity to send a friend a card or make a book mark using real plants.
Once darkness encompasses the Signal Peak Campus, guests will move to the observatory where the NASA telescopes will be open for terrific views of the sky for the rest of the evening. The telescopes include large reflectors with 24-inch and 14-inch diameter mirrors, plus an array of smaller telescopes used to view various celestial bodies.
The astronomy portion of the program will focus on NASA's Kepler Mission that was launched in 2009 and is searching for planets around other stars.
"We will discuss the recent detection of 1,235 possible planets, including some similar to Earth in size and temperature," Pryor explained.
According to NASA's webpage, the scientific objective of the Kepler Mission is to explore the structure and diversity of planetary systems. This is achieved by surveying a large sample of stars to:
• Determine the abundance of terrestrial and larger planets in or near the habitable zone of a wide variety of stars;
• Determine the distribution of sizes and shapes of the orbits of these planets;
• Estimate how many planets there are in multiple-star systems;
• Determine the variety of orbit sizes and planet reflectivities, sizes, masses and densities of short-period giant planets;
• Identify additional members of each discovered planetary system using other techniques; and
• Determine the properties of those stars that harbor planetary systems.
This marks the third of four Astronomy Night at the Peak events scheduled for the 2010-11 academic year with the final one slated for Friday, May 13.
"These events are always a lot of fun for us and for the community," Pryor stated. "It is a terrific family event that we offer at no charge. Children - and their parents - seem to really enjoy it."
While Pryor will be outside, Wilkins again will be inside with STARLAB, an inflatable planetarium that provides an indoor look at the Arizona nighttime sky.
Currently the dean of students at Toltec Middle School, Wilkins will set up STARLAB and offer her presentations inside M101 of the Student Services Center, the large building with the clock tower located on the Signal Peak Campus.
"My public presentations usually consist of some short stories and how to locate constellations and some other interesting facts," she said.
STARLAB was purchased when Central Arizona College's SEMAA (Science Engineering Mathematics Aerospace Academy) program was being offered on campus.
Before night falls, moms and dads are invited to bring the entire family for dinner at the Central Arizona College Dining Hall from 5-6 p.m. The dining hall is located on the second floor of the Mel A. Everingham Student Center adjacent to The Green near the entrance to the campus.
Dinner is $6 plus tax per person for everyone and is served buffet style. The menu includes hamburgers, grilled cheese sandwiches, pizza, chicken nuggets, French fries, macaroni and cheese, a salad bar, self-serve ice cream and dessert stations, and a choice of beverages.
For more information on the Astronomy Night at the Peak event, please call 520-494-5202, or e-mail Tom Di Camillo at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Last night was terrifying. At around 1am, myself and Ryan and our dog were taking cover in our condo's bathtub after hearing that a tornado had touched down a few miles from us and could be headed our way.
We later learned that the tornado ended up traveling just north of where we live, making a line down the middle of Branson from one end of town to the other.
Having seen the damage in person today, it appears that the direct path of the tornado more likely started down Pacific but then jumped one block over to College St. and then started to curve back toward Pacific just as it had passed my place. How it managed to narrowly miss the studio is astonishing. The only effects I experienced were some minor roof damage and my sign has gone missing. As you can see from the photos of downtown below, several neighboring homes and businesses were not so fortunate and my heart goes out to them…
ABOVE: the view from outside my studio looking down Pacific St.
BELOW: a cropped close-up of the destruction on the hillside across Lake Taneycomo
BELOW: the intersection of Pacific and Commercial in downtown Branson
BELOW: Branson Landing damage and more destruction on the hillside behind it across Lake Taneycomo
BELOW: more photos of the damage to the Hilton Hotel. This tall building with curtains flying out of broken windows made me have flashbacks of the photos I took last year of the damaged hospital in Joplin.
ABOVE & BELOW: The cleanup process has been quick to start. Branson is such a resilient community, and affected businesses are working fast to re-open. It's also worth noting that there are still many other businesses in town that were not affected at all. My hope is that tourism does not experience too large of a negative effect. It's what drives our local economy. There's much to see and do in Branson, come for a visit and help support our local businesses.
BELOW (NEXT 3 PHOTOS): structural damage and downed trees on College St.; one block over from my studio
BELOW: My cottage studio with tarped roof. Incredibly thankful…it only experienced some minor damage. My Heritage Row neighbors are okay, as well

Southern rust was confirmed in two counties of South Dakota as of last weekend. According to Emmanuel Byamukama, SDSU Extension plant oathology specialist, southern rust is an unusual disease to occur on corn in South Dakota. This provides a warning for other Midwestern corn growers who have not commonly had a problem with southern rust.
"Southern rust is favored by warm (80-90 degrees Fahrenheit) and humid conditions. The occurrence of southern rust is a concern because most of the corn hybrids are susceptible to southern rust, unlike the common rust, for which most dent corn hybrids have resistance genes," Byamukama said.
Byamukama added, because most of the corn is passed dent growth stage, the development of southern rust may not significantly affect grain yield. However, for corn that was planted late and has not passed dent, Byamukama encourages growers to scout and prepare to apply fungicide if southern rust favorable weather conditions continue.
The general recommended threshold for rust severity is 15 percent on a whole plant basis.
"With the warm weather and heavy dew in the mornings, southern rust may develop to higher severities in a short time," Byamukama said. "Growers are encouraged to keep scouting before deciding if a fungicide is needed. By the time heavy pustules are seen on leaves above the ear, it may be too late to apply a fungicide."
The corn plant pathology working group published a list of fungicides that are effective for several fungal pathogens on corn. This list can be downloaded online; http://www.extension.purdue.edu/extmedia/BP/BP-85-W.pdf. Fungicide label should be consulted to crosscheck pre-harvest restrictions.
Common rust versus southern rust
The two rusts can be easily differentiated, said Byamukama by the color and distribution on the leaf surface.
"Just like the name suggests, common rust is very common, we have found this rust in every corn field we have scouted. Common rust severity of up to 50 percent on the lower leaves has been observed in a few corn fields," he said. "Common rust has circular to elongate golden brown to cinnamon brown pustules that are usually randomly distributed on the leaves (Fig.1). These pustules can also be seen on lower side of the leaf."
On the other hand, Byamukama explained that southern rust pustules are circular to oval light brown to orange and occur in clusters on the upper side of the leaf (Fig. 2). Southern rust pustules have a yellow halo surrounding the pustules when the leaf is held against light (Fig. 3).
Both the common rust and southern rust do not overwinter in South Dakota. Rust spores are blown from southern states into South Dakota. Therefore corn residue or crop rotation does not affect the rust disease development.

His calls for more understanding came as he launched a new campaign called Respect as part of the Queen's Golden Jubilee celebrations.
He said it's especially important since the 11 September terrorist attacks on the US and the race riots in Bradford last year.
It's hoped the campaign will encourage more understanding between communities so that they find more time for each other and be friends.
There are loads of different religions and cultures in the UK like Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
But, the Prince said, so often people don't seem to understand each other's cultures.

Vixen Chat: Models Devyn, Sandra, and Ebony Talk Oxygen's 'The Face'
VIBE Vixen: How has it been so far?
Devyn: It's an amazing opportunity for all the girls and me. We all want to win, but it's also about the experience itself and learning from these supermodels. The best way to learn to be a model is from Naomi, Karolina and CoCo.
How's it learning under the guidance of Karolina, specifically?
It's great working with Karolina. She's such a humble person. She really understands what this competition is about and what the person who wins the competition has to be. It's not just about being a pretty face but knowing how to handle yourself correctly and being professional.
Is balancing being a mother and being on the show difficult?
It was more of me missing my daughter and wishing I could bring her on the show. It wasn't like I could call her and see her face everyday. It was just me knowing that I have to make this experience completely worth it.
Have you noticed changes in yourself since the show began?
My focus. Doing the show has opened my eyes that anyone can do anything.
What's the best advice Karolina has given you?
No matter what you do, have fun with it, even if you mess up. If you have a positive attitude about that, people appreciate that and would be willing to help you.

Attorney Hoffman and his Secretary Annette were both just great. I can remember on two occasions when they went above and beyond the call of service. First, Mr. Hoffman provided me with step by step instructions on how to proceed after I was served papers by the sheriff's office on behalf of the creditor that was suing us. He had me come to his office and he printed out the answer form that I need to take with me to the court, to Answer the judgment. Secondly, On our way to our Bankruptcy court hearing My husband and I got lost, I called his office, very stressful because we were almost late on getting there, spoke with Annette she gave me directions, stayed on the phone with me until we got there, and when we turned the corner Attorney Hoffman was right at the door looking for us and gestured us in his direction, he said we were up next, a sense of relieve came over me, for we had made it on time. Thanks to Annette for being at the office to assist us on finding the place. I called Annette back to thank her for staying on the phone with me and understanding that I was very stressful at the time, she was very understanding, and as a matter of fact she said that she was texting Mr. Hoffman to let him know that we were lost but we were very close and should arrive very soon. Kudos to that Team!

My husband and I went to seek council for a bankruptcy. From the moment we made the appointment the service was a joke. We were lied to by one member of the staff, then for lack of any better explanation verbally assaulted and talked down to by his paralegal who then openly flirted with my husband in front of me and then told me how to raise my special needs child...keep in mind all of this after they couldn't even manage to get our names correct. The final nail in the coffin was when I was able to get Mr. Hoffman on the phone. I relayed to him the events of our meeting and expressed my concerns, not only for myself but for anyone else unlucky enough to come into his office when he is away, and his EXACT words to me were, "Well she will be the one handling your file so if you can't work with her find another lawyer." Having worked in the legal system all I can say is I am shocked. If you value yor time and money and have any sense of self worth I strongly urge you to seek council elsewhere.

Pete is very professional. He takes a personal interest in his cases, maintains an honorable and timely approach to the practice of law. I highly recommend Pete Hoffman.
Posted by Cody
I Used Mr. Hoffman for a traffic/ criminal matter about a year ago. and he was able to get the charges dismissed with one year probation. a few months ago i need his advise on a family law matter, he and his staff were extremely helpful. i would not only use his services again but i would recommend him to everyone.
Posted by Sarah
This lawyer has done nothing but give us the run around from day one! He and his staff are extremely unprofessional. They set appointment times and when you arrive at the office no one is there, they insure you that your case is on track when come to find out it isn't they make excuses for why your case has sat for days when they knew how important it was that all was filed signed and publicized on time!!!! I will never use him again!!!
