Toaster Gets Zapped
This is based on a story my mother wrote for me in 1997. I thought it would make a good story to add to the fan-fiction site. In the movie, the blanket and the toaster seem to have a bond, and Kirby acts gruff toward the blanket. In this story, it is the opposite. Kirby sides with the blanket, and the toaster is mean to the blanket. Anyway, I hope you like it. Enjoy!
Chapter 1: The Argument
One day, the appliances were in the cottage watching TV and having fun being together. It was a wonderful evening, until all of a sudden, the toaster started teasing the blanket and made the blanket start crying.
Toaster said, "You are a just a baby, you bad blanket, and you can't do anything. I am a lot smarter than you are, Blanket!" That made Blanket get very upset, and he started crying.
Blanket said, "Waah, waah, waah…don't say bad things to me."
But all Toaster said was, "Shut up, you bad blanket, and stop making all that noise!"
Kirby was listening to the argument that was brewing between the toaster and the blanket, and he got mad at what was happening because Toaster always did mean things to Blanket. Kirby said, "You leave that blanket alone, Toaster. He hasn't done anything to you; and besides, he is a lot smarter than you think he is, and he is my friend."
But Toaster did not pay any attention to Kirby and kept on teasing Blanket. Finally, the radio heard what was going on and said, "Knock it off, Toaster." The toaster really did not want to stop all the teasing but decided he would do it because he liked the radio a lot better than Kirby. The toaster said, "Oh, all right, but I still think the blanket is a baby, and he is not very smart." The blanket stopped crying and started having fun with the other appliances again.

Four Seasons Scottsdale at Troon North Debuts New Onyx Bar and Lounge
Onyx Bar's Tartare & Toast: Beef Tartare, Caviar, Parmesan, Caper Berry
Lauren Saria
Last night the Four Seasons Scottsdale at Troon North invited guests to experience the resort's newest dining outlet, a bar and lounge designed to complement chef Mel Mecinas' signature restaurant, Talavera.
The new Onyx Bar and Lounge offers an upscale menu of small plates and entrées, as well as cocktails and an approachable wine menu. Guests at Tuesday night's event sampled some of the lounge's most popular dishes, including a spread of housemade charcuterie, steak tartare with caviar, and escargot with mushroom duxelle, Swiss cheese, and garlic.

The bar's small but sophisticated menu includes a handful of seafood options, a larger "Butcher Board" section, and four entrée-size dishes.
Seafood options include crab and shrimp cocktail; a seafood platter that features king crab, prawns, oysters, tuna, scallops, and Maine lobster; and oysters Rockefeller with chorizo, spinach, and Parmesan.
From the Butcher Board section, we tried a creamy burrata and bread made with heirloom tomato, bacon, and arugula pesto. The tartare and toast was another luxurious small plate that included beef tartare topped with caviar, Parmesan, and caper berry. And the smoked salmon flatbread with tequila crème fraiche, avocado, and chorizo was a nice dish to showcase for the lounge's blend of classic dishes with Southwestern flair.
The best thing we ate had to be the spread of housemade charcuterie, which included chef Mel Mecinas' truffle salami and roasted truffle Brie. The board also offered a creamy duck mousse and venison paté.
On the drinks side, the bar offers a small but appealing selection of wines that features several that are available only at the resort. The best part, though, might be choosing among three-, six-, and nine-ounce pours -- allowing you to create your own flight or commit to a favorite selection.
The dessert options also are fun, with a daily rotating selection of housemade truffles courtesy of the resort's pastry chef. We tasted an excellent root beer float white chocolate truffle that we'd be happy to have anytime.
Of course, the bar, which is adjacent to Talavera, also scores big in the atmosphere section with impressive views of Pinnacle Peak and the whole Valley. The only better view you'll get will be from inside the actual restaurant.
Onyx Bar will be open daily from 4 p.m. to midnight through May. You can view the menu and get more information on the hours at the Four Seasons website.

Editor's note: Columnist Alexis Powers teaches a writing workshop at the Oro Valley Library. One of the workshop participants, Gail Bornfield, wrote this essay.
We are ushering in a time of reflection for those who sacrificed their lives defending the ideals of this nation. As we approach Memorial Day on Monday, thoughts of fallen heroes arriving at Dover Air Force Base draped in the Stars and Stripes come to mind. Some will travel to Arlington National Cemetery to find their final resting place among the many rows of white crosses. Others will find their way home to cities and small towns across this country to be laid to rest near their families.
Many of these valiant souls return missing parts of their bodies.
As family, we remember them not as heroes but as loved ones with flashing dark eyes and loving hearts. We remember their laughter as well as their sorrows. We try to remember the sound of their voices and the feeling we had when they entered a room.
My father was injured during World War II. He did not die right away, so he is not considered a fallen hero. He died many years later from his injuries, which were both mental and physical. For more than half his life he lived with the ghosts of war, which haunted him relentlessly.
He has been gone for many years. Each year a flag is placed at his grave recognizing his service to this country that he loved. He was proud to be an American, truly understanding what this country stands for. Although he rarely spoke of the war, those of us who knew him and loved him were aware that the horrors of war were always present.
Through the years we learned that he was the sole survivor of a small group of men he often referred to as heroes. He could recite each of their stories with a tenderness and love that only a close friend could feel. The memories most often ended with the question, "Why them? Why not me?"
Today we call that survivor's guilt. But at the time this sadness had no name. We just knew that the question haunted him.
Like many veterans of his era, he came home from the battlefield, found a job and began raising his family. There were no services available - no thought that he might have unmet needs. He knew when he stepped onto U.S. soil that he was expected to put the war behind him and go back to his life as if nothing had changed. To his credit, he gave it every effort.
It is odd that we ask more of our veterans as they return than we did when they were deployed. When they leave, we expect them to defend this nation with courage - a clear directive. When they return, the expectations are less clear. The reality of the very personal price of war must be faced by each as they move into their lives at home. And the ghosts must be subdued.
If my father were here, I would hug him dearly. I'd tell him how much I appreciate what he did for our family and our country. Perhaps I'd be able to assure him that he was spared so his family would enjoy the years with him.
And perhaps I could convince him his life was spared so his daughter would always remember that her father would always be a true hero in her eyes.

Pete Doherty pleads guilty
Pete Doherty pleaded guilty to seven charges of possessing heroin, crack cocaine, and weed in a court appearance in east London today. Although I'm not entirely sure this constitutes news, since the same story has appeared every week for the past three months. Apparently dating Kate Moss gives you automatic immunity when it comes to illegal drugs. Sort of like how dating Alessandra Ambrosio gives you automatic immunity from not having an erection.

STATEMENTS ON INTRODUCED BILLS AND JOINT RESOLUTIONS -- (Senate - June 21, 2006)
By Mr. OBAMA (for himself, Mr. Cochran, Mr. Lugar, and Mr. Carper):
S. 3554. A bill to establish an alternative diesel standard, and for other purposes; to the Committee on Environment and Public Works.
Mr. OBAMA. Mr. President, I am pleased to be joined by my distinguished colleagues, the Senator from Mississippi, Mr. Cochran, the Senator from Indiana, Mr. Lugar, and the Senator from Delaware, Mr. Carper, in introducing the Alternative Diesel Standard Act of 2006.
Last summer, Congress passed the Energy Policy Act, which included a bold, bipartisan initiative to help wean our Nation from its petroleum dependency. This initiative, known as the Renewable Fuels Standard, established that it is the policy of the United States that the 140 billion gallon national gasoline pool will consist of at least 7.5 billion gallons of ethanol by the year 2012.
We have seen tremendous response to this new policy. Almost 30 new ethanol plants have been proposed to be constructed in my State of Illinois alone, and many more are proposed nationwide. By comparison, over the past 30 years, no new petroleum refineries have been built in the United States. The Renewable Fuels Standard is probably one of the single most important legislative actions taken by Congress in recent years to strengthen our domestic energy security, and the legislation we introduce today takes this policy one step further by addressing the 40 billion gallon national diesel pool.
Petroleum-based diesel is used in a wide variety of transportation modes: transit buses; semitrucks; ships; heavy duty construction, farming and mining equipment; military vehicles; locomotives; barges; large scale generators; and in a range of cars and trucks. While not as large of a market as gasoline, petrodiesel is enormously significant to our economy, and reducing our reliance on foreign feedstocks for this diesel is of equal importance in our efforts to increase energy security.
Our bill, the Alternative Diesel Standard, simply requires that by the year 2015, the national diesel pool must consist of at least 2 billion gallons of alternative and renewable diesels.
This is but a modest 1 percent of the national diesel supply--hardly painful for the petroleum industry. It would not in any way dent the oil industry's record-shattering profits. Instead, it establishes certainty to those who know that alternative diesels can provide a real solution to our dependence on foreign oil and who are prepared to invest in alternative diesel production on a commercial scale.
Right now, there is an estimated 180 million gallons of biodiesel production capacity in the United States. Fifty-four companies have reported plans to construct dedicated biodiesel plants in the near future, but those plans are dependent upon regional and national demand prospects.
Moreover, entrepreneurs across the Nation have proven that we can make diesel from other plant oils, like sunflower seeds, or coal, manure, animal fats, and yes, even from recycled plastics or garbage. This bill sends a signal to those entrepreneurs that a market is planned in the future for these domestically produced fuels, attracting the necessary investment to establish a national infrastructure of domestic fuel production capabilities.
If we are serious about reducing our country's dependence on imported petroleum and insulating our economy from future supply disruption shocks--whether from the volatile Middle East or natural disasters such as Katrina--encouraging the construction of more domestic alternative fuel production capacity must be part of that strategy. Several billion gallons of alternative diesels are possible within the timelines proposed in our legislation, making another bold step to create jobs in rural America and strengthen our economic security. An Alternative Diesel Standard is the right course for the Nation's future. I hope my colleagues will join me in cosponsoring this legislation, and I ask their support for swift enactment.

Your Personal Empowerment Is Knowing "Who You Are Makes A Difference"
Editor's note: This is a long article but well worth reading.
By Wanda Peyton
I believe that we all have been endowed with the seeds of greatness and that no matter where we find ourselves we are always in a state of becoming more. Part of the process of living our dreams and becoming what we came here to become is to recognize our personal power, that is, who we are makes a difference.
I talk to many people in my coaching practice, who are, as Emerson says, leading lives of quiet desperation. They know there is something more to life than they are experiencing but the can't seem to get their arms around what it is. I wonder how many of you have desired to make some major change in your life or had ambitions and goals you've always wanted to achieve, but you've decided to settle for less than what you know in your heart that you are really capable of achieving.
It is my pleasure to share with you some ideas that have had a powerful impact upon me and generations before me, the common thread for each of us is the recognition that, Our Power is in Our Thoughts!
In one of the latest versions of Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen's Chicken Soup for the Soul, entitled Life Lessons Living the Law of Attraction, co authored by Jeanna Gabellini and Eva Gregory, I share my story of a woman who had no idea at the time that who she was could make a difference to anyone she was trapped in her own misery.
That woman was me. I didn't know the meaning of personal power. I certainly did not believe that who I was could make a difference in my life nor in the lives of others, nor did I realize that I had unintentionally orchestrated every negative condition I was experiencing.
My life was a mess! I married at 19 right out of City College. A marriage that was plagued with problems from day one. Soon after we were married his children due to circumstances beyond their control came to live with their father and I and our 2 new babies in our tiny 2 bedroom house. The pressure of trying to make ends meet on a minimum wage even with my husband working 2 jobs was almost unbearable.
I was constantly consumed with worry as I went to work everyday as a bank teller, a mother with 7 children ages new born to 14 years of age.
I would worry whether in the Spring I would be able to celebrate the Easter Holiday and give the kids baskets and new Sunday shoes and prepare a decent meal.
I would worry in the summer time whether when it was time to go back to school that I would be able to afford back to school clothes and many times I couldn't.
I would worry in the winter months whether the tattered roof on our house would be able to withstand the rain and whether I would have enough money at Christmas to give the kids a decent Christmas, and I couldn't.
I began unknowingly cultivating an attitudes of hopelessness and powerless. It seemed as if whenever we'd make the slightest bit of progress something awful would happen to throw us back further. Our home was burglarized 7 times. But the last time was a defining moment in my life. It caused me to take a look at where I was in life and wonder what was happening to me and ask… why? Why me? Have you ever found yourself at rock bottom, living in a way that you never imagined you would and then stepped outside of yourself and asked what is going on with my life?
If you're reading this and are at that place right now, CONGRATULATE YOURSELF! YOU ARE AT THE PLACE WHERE SOLUTIONS AND NEW REALITIES ARE STRUGGLING TO GIVE BIRTH IN YOUR LIFE!
Michael Beckwith reminds us "You can break yourself free from your hereditary patterns, cultural codes, social beliefs; and prove once and for all that the power within you is greater than the power that's in the world"
So next, I am going to present to you 4 very simple but profound strategies that can empower you in ways you never imagined possible.
Strategy #1 – We Must Understand Our Power
Do realize that if you can think and feel you are creating? That you are either creating by intention or by default. In other words you are either unconsciously creating circumstances you may or may not want happen in your life, like I was, or through deliberate focused thought and feelings you are intentionally creating that which you desire.
Claude Bristol reminds us: To create power is like a magnet. This is true because this creative power operates like a magnet. Give it a strong clear picture of what you want and this creative power starts to work magnetizing conditions about you, attracting to you things, resources, opportunities, circumstances and even the people you need to help bring to pass in your life what have pictured.
Until we fully understand our inherent gift of creative personal power we become like the elephant who was eventually freed from the 20 foot leash after decades and never knew he had the power to break the leash at any time. He could have gone anywhere his heart desired but he didn't know, and he didn't know he didn't know. Today YOU KNOW!
I can still remember as a young woman the feeling I had the first time I was told I had the power to change my circumstances. I felt that if this were true I had the key to great possibilities! It almost felt too good to be true. When there were times I just couldn't get myself to believe it, I could at least believe that my mentor and coach believed it, and sometimes that was enough for the time being. Finally, when I began to see that my power to control and direct my thoughts was also my power to recreate new realities, my life began to change almost immediately.
Strategy 2
Understanding How IT Works
It's not the words alone that have creative power but rather the emotion behind the words and thoughts that dictates the outcome.
Think about it, examine your life right now and trace back your dominate thought and feeling patterns over the recent months or years. Can you see an amazing likeness between your past thoughts and your current conditions?
As a young woman I would pray for better circumstances with my words but I was unaware that with my thoughts and feelings and beliefs I was praying for personal devastation, poverty, limitation and frustration because I allowed the negative circumstances in my life to dictate what I gave my focus to and that became my prayer. I like the elephant, didn't know and didn't know I didn't know.
James Mitchell reminds us that " worry is like praying for something we don't want to have happen" The idea we give our mental focus becomes animated with life.
How can we create more abundance in life when we are focused on limitation? How can we create beauty, peace, security and self fulfillment when we are constantly focused on what we perceive to be missing?
Sarah Ban Breatnach says: "It is always our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend, when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that's present, love, family, friends, work, joys of nature and personal pursuits that bring us pleasure, the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience Heaven on earth"
Strategy #3
Activate YOUR Power
If you doubt that you have the personal power I'm talking about to make changes in your life, then how about considering that you do, in deed, have the power to think about what you want to think about?
I was giving a seminar and I asked the participants to pull up a memory that gave them joy, that made them smile when they thought about it.
I'm going to ask you do this now, close your eyes and just go deep into your treasure chest of memories and pull up a memory where you can remember how joyful or exhilarated you felt in your past.
OK what came up for you? Write it down. At my seminar one woman said it was the birth of her son and she felt as he lay in her arms 19 years ago. One person said it was her first love, she remembered the butterflies and the good feelings she had at that time. One man said it was during the times of connection with his God. He said he felt bliss and inexplicable joy. The whole energy of the room shifted as we were sharing, people were fanning they felt their body temperature seemed rise as they basked in the joy of the moment even thought it was a very cold raining night.
You see, they were intentionally up-leveling their emotional energy and by doing so they were activating their personal power. You see as they felt lighter and lighter their good feeling thoughts were attracting other good feeling thoughts. Now they had energetically arrived at a place where that had access to inspired ideas and could attraction resources and support. Here's what happens. Have you ever had a fearful thought or worry? Your thoughts went something like this, what if this happens or that happens? Then you think if that negative thing occurs it's going have this or that negative impact and then your thoughts begin multiply like bubbles in a bubble bath. The same thing happens with positive thoughts.
It is essential in taking control of our lives that we begin taking control over what we allow ourselves to dwell upon! Why? Because our thoughts and emotions turn into our words. Our words turn into our beliefs and our beliefs turn into our behavior and our behavior turns into action which produces a result or a reality for us.
In my own personal transformation I began to read uplifting books and listen to inspirational and motivational tapes and think about these Universal Principals and as I did this I began to notice a shift in how I was feeling. I liked it! I read and listened more and more and began to believe that how I was thinking and feeling could make a difference in my circumstances. The unexpected bonus was this, if by chance there were no changes, at least I was feeling better inside. But things did begin to change, I have since learned that feelings have a major impact on the circumstances that show up in our lives.
So in step 3 Activating Your Power, ignite change by taking control over your thoughts. Monitor your thoughts by noticing how they're making your feel. When you realize that you are feeling down, irritated, angry or frustrated or any low level emotion, take a moment and track where your dominate thoughts have taken root. What are you focusing on that is making you feel dark inside? You may have noticed, I didn't say to take a moment track what is going wrong in your life. No take note on what you placing your focus, because circumstances are fluid and subject to change based upon where we placing our focus.
Now go to work refocusing on what feels better, always reaching for the higher thought. You'll recognize when you have taken control back because you'll feel better. Now you have arrived to the place where answers and solutions are available to you.
Strategy #4
Notice, Anchor and Sustain the Positive Outcome
When we are able to maintain this higher feeling place of gratitude and expectation of good, knowing that regardless of the appearance of the conditions in life, answers and options are available to us and on the way. When we arrive at this place we have found the key to creating the circumstances which express our hearts desire.
The process in this strategy is designed to keep us moving forward, to assist us in maintaining the highest level possible in our emotional energy. So how do we do this?
We begin by keeping an Evidence Journal. An Evidence Journal helps us to actually notice that our desires, our goals our dreams are coming into reality, that our positive prayers are indeed in the process of being answered.
Have you ever planted a seed in your garden or in a pot? How does it feel when you see the first sign of the petals of a plant? Excited? Proud? Filled with wonder of how a seed could actually render a strawberry plant? Whatever good feeling thoughts that are generated when you see the evidence of your garden coming into form are supporting the blossoming of that plant. It is the same with your dreams and desires.
As I began to take control over my thoughts and emotions I noticed corresponding changes in my outer circumstances, they were small things at first. Like one day I received a small unexpected refund check from one of the utility companies, or my groceries would be less because of an unexpected sale on some item in my basket and because I was looking for new realities to take place in my life I would document the smallest blessing which caused me to feel more and more expectant that my desires were actually unfolding and right before my eyes.
Then one day something totally unexpected occurred. We receive a call from someone who we hadn't spoken to in years. This guy and my husband were both involved in security on a major department store in the area. He was now handling the awarding of contracts to small businesses for a big builder in town and he was in need of a security patrol company for a low income apartment complex which was being built in our area. He said to us that if we were able to get a private patrol license and few top guards, there was opportunity for us to launch our own small private patrol company and provide protection for his site. This would change our lives!!!
Wow this was the first big evidence that something was really manifesting! So we applied for the license and got it! I immediately began to feel this was it! This was my answer! This change of thought thing was working, I had activated my personal power by redirecting my thoughts and emotions and it was working!! My new thoughts were giving birth to new opportunity I was so excited because the process was working!
As we prepared to go into business. I began looking at myself with new eyes, like the person I could be rather than how I had perceived myself to be. I began to align myself with the spirit of the Creative Source of the Universe and embracing possibilities. I started walking differently, talking with more confidence and authority and something was happening and I had initiated it! This was huge!!
For the next several weeks my focus was completely on the possibilities about to unfold. I began to prepare for my good! I was going to need an office. I had no money, my house was going to have to do. I borrowed a desk from my mother and a typewriter (this is before computers) from my best girlfriend and I began walking and talking and most importantly feeling like the CEO of Wanda Elaine Incorporated! All I needed now was that contract and we were on our way. Our life was about to change, we were going to be able to fix the roof and buy the kids new clothes, get our car fixed and maybe even get a new one.. I had big plans!
Then one day the phone rang and it was him! Tears filled my eyes as I heard him say, "Sorry guys you didn't get the contract, they awarded it to someone else". For a moment I saw my dreams disappearing right before my eyes. Disappointed? Devastated? Discourage? I think not! Because while I was waiting for the contract to be awarded, a transformation had taken place within me. You see, I was working on myself and somehow I had experienced an inner shift and had gained a new sense of self confidence and now I believed that I had the power within to go after and develop business on my terms. I went into action the next day prospecting for business.
Everyday brought some greater good some piece of the big picture, you see I had made an emotional pivot. Fear was turning into faith and faith was creating new realities. Ten years later my company had provided employment for over 3000 men and women and I was forever changed with a new awakening that who I was integrated with the Divine Power within and focused thought had no doubt made a difference in my life and the lives of many.
For many years I have share my story and these principles through private coaching and motivational presentations. My story received national coverage in US News & World Report and 7 other magazines, along with a documentary entitled "Women in Uncommon Businesses" as well as many appearances of television and radio.
It fills my soul to serve as a conduit for Spirit to support others on their journey to becoming all they were meant to be.

Tips for Cyclists from a Car Driver
Labels: Bicycling
A Nurse with a Gun
Labels: Bicycling
And then there is the opposite ... real bike hooligans:
I love that little yellow truck thingie she's driving - where can I get one of those?
I'm with Kristopher. The video is almost cute, but it does show some cyclists' self-righteous (and completely irritating) tendencies. She could've made an honest-to-goodness helpful video...
e.g. My Dad (who rides an Electra Townie 24) hit a cyclist in his Accord a few years back. Doofus on the bike was riding in the bike lane, AGAINST TRAFFIC. Dad's pulling out of a driveway where no lefts are possible, so he only looks to his left to merge with traffic. Blammo. Bicycle goes under the car. The rider was ok, shaken up, and then cited by the police for disregarding traffic laws.
3 months later, my best friend ALMOST does the same thing at a different part of town.
Now, a serious cyclist would have lights, be on the correct side of the road, etc. But sometimes a guy pedaling a velocipede is just an @$$hole that owns a bike...
I would've enjoyed a more serious, instructional video.
Sometimes you get forced into going the wrong way in a bike lane ... often their is no lane on the other side of the road.
When I find myself in such a situation, I assume drivers making right turns are just not going to see me, and just stop for them ... the folks who can kill them when they pull into traffic are all to their left, and that will always be where their attention is.

The Solution
In addition to the palm house, we had the responsibility of installing of the newly constructed Mediterranean House, Orchid House, Desert House, and Tropical House. Though this was a typical installation each house had its own challenges.
With the historic aspect of the Palm house and the surrounding grounds, very little modern equipment was used for the installation of the large plant material. An exceptional installation was accomplished by the crew using brute strength with a feather touch to install specimen palms, trees, and ground plant material.
In the desert house Ambius had to fulfill the design aspect of the conservatory by installing boulders that weighed in excess of 1/2 ton or more. Our installation crew used pry bars, gantry's, and will-power to maneuver these large boulders into position atop concrete piers.
The Results
For every project that Ambius encounters we pride ourselves in the installation of interior plant environments. We have dedicated staff that do what they love and love what they do. Our experience and expertise in the field of interior plant installation and care has been unsurpassed.

The stamps portray the feats of human endurance encountered by Captain John Ross and his crew in their attempts to reach the magnetic North Pole.
In 1829, the expedition set off in The Victory - a Manx paddle steamer used between Douglas and Liverpool.
Although scheduled for 15 months, the crew did not return for more than four years after getting trapped in ice.
Research projects
In one 28-day overland mission, Captain Ross located the magnetic North Pole on 1 June 1831.
During the time The Victory was trapped by the ice, relations with the local Inuit became a key factor in their survival.
The crew were able to return home after salvaging whaleboats from a shipwreck and getting picked up by a vessel from Hull, The Isabella.
The Isle of Man Post Office has issued the stamps to mark International Polar Year (IPY).
The IPY is a huge scientific programme focused on physical, biological and social research topics in the Arctic and Antarctic.

Sterling Arms?
I was wondering if anyone has ever heard of the company Sterling Arms? If so, where could I find more information on them?
Sterling Arms
Hello all
Ron L here = Seresurplus
I believe Sterling Firearms is OUT OF BUSINESS? They used to make a small Line of Blowback Semi-auto pistols in Like small model 22LR and .25ACP,
then they had another Model in 380, That was about all I ever saw? They were alive and well i the 80's but disapeared after about 85! I wish I couild tell ya more, but to be honest, thats all I know? I hope it helps some samll degree?
PS: They seemed well made, I never fired any but the 25ACP it worked well with FMJ?
Sterling arms
I have handled a Sterling .380 stainless. It impressed me as a well made gun that was resonably accurate. Have not seen one in over 10 years.
I have seen a Sterling Arms in .380 at a number of gun shows in my area (Western Washington), and wondered why it hasn't sold. Well, now I know.
Thought it might have had an monstrously heavy trigger pull, or some other design defect.
sterling arms
Sterling started about 1967 in Buffalo, in 1971 joined with E&R products for more efficient manufacturing. In 1977 moved to Lockport ,NY. Good product & sales up to 1982.
Closed in 1983 during bad econmy period, poor sales & product liability. Overall, a well made, accurate firearm,
at least in the Model 400 MKII, a .380 semi stainless.
They also made a top break single shot pistol, somewhat like a TC Contender.
I've got one in 44 mag, nicely made gun. I've also had a couple of Sterling
22's (mdl 300? 302? ) over the years. They were cheap little pocket guns, but
a step up from the Bryco/Jennings/Lorcin stuff.
sterling arms co lockport ny
I'd like to know what you found out . I am looking to find parts for a sterling 22 lr semi auto stainless pistol . Have found out anyway of contacting the co direct ?
If you are looking for parts for the small pocket 22 (model 302?) then
here is about as good as it gets:
Numrich also has a few parts for other models. Heck--some of the models
had less that 100 units produced, so spare parts are going to be
pretty slim.
I've had a few of the little Sterlings, and they have one irritating
"feature". The grip panel is thin enough that you will pinch the
trigger bar with a tight grip. Pull trigger--nothing. Relax grip--
bang. Slightly disconcerting.
Sterling .25 Auto
I have a Sterling .25 auto and wondering if anyone knew or had a manual for it. I have no idea when the last time it was fired or how to take it apart. I like to fire it at least once. Seem to be a well built gun.

Keep a Watchful Eye
While you don't necessarily need to watch an employee's every mouse click, it's a good idea to set ground rules and make sure that staffers aren't catching up on Oprah or heading out to a baseball game during work hours.
Brian Diamond, founder of Telecommuting360, a Web site and open forum dedicated to educating people about telecommuting, advises managers to be transparent about watching employees. He notes that most remote office and telecommuting packages have auditing built in. Citrix, for example, offers logging on its XenDesktop product so that a manager can receive a log of an employee's entire day, including chat sessions, e-mail messages sent, and IP-telephony calls.
State laws vary, however, and some require employers to inform employees that they may be monitored, so be sure to check your state's laws before proceeding. Draft a policy stating that the employer may monitor the employee, says Diamond, and have each employee sign it. Then, send out a monthly reminder. If employees know that they may be monitored, Diamond says, it can be good motivation not to slack off.
"If you don't watch what [remote employees] are doing, you see a drop-off in work productivity over time," he warns.
If you don't have a package with auditing, another simple solution is to require that remote employees use instant messaging software so you can see their online status and ping them at any time during the workday.
The open-source and free IM client Pidgin has a feature called "buddy pounce" that allows you to follow a user and be notified the moment they sign on. Some enterprise applications, such as IBM's Lotus SameTime service, offer secure IM, logging, and built-in VoIP.
Finally, watch out for programs such as Auto Reply Manager, which automatically create messages and send replies based on rules that the user has set. If you suspect an employee is using one of these tools, send a very specific message and see what kind of answer you receive.
Manage Meetings and Projects From Afar
Seeing facial expressions and hearing vocal intonation is a much better way to communicate than shooting e-mail back and forth, but if your team is remote, Web conferencing can be almost the same as being there.
Gmail and Skype offer free, secure options, and many instant messaging programs are now starting to incorporate conferencing. But while the grainy video of most Webcams leaves much to be desired, high-resolution video is the next best thing to an in-person meeting. A recent PC World Australia article delves into a few of the latest conferencing products, such as Access Grid's high-resolution video and shared whiteboard.
Though meetings may not always be necessary, dropping by Bob's desk to find out when you'll get his latest sales report might be something you're used to doing when working in an office. Luckily, project-management software such as Microsoft Project or Basecamp makes tracking tasks easy. Project-management software not only lets you see tasks, deadlines, statuses, and expected completion dates but also allows your group to share documents online.
Telecommuting might not be an appropriate arrangement for all offices or all employees, but putting a secure and well-designed telecommuting plan in place may yield a happier, more productive workforce. And there's nothing like holding a board meeting in your pink fuzzy slippers.
Telecommuting Checklist
You have many elements to think about when creating a telecommuting program. Consider including an assessment of the following components in your plan:
- VoIP
- Automatic backup and restore
- Data encryption
- Software patches
- Two-factor authentication
- Firewall
- Virus and spyware protection
- "Time-out" function
- Instant messaging
- Videoconferencing
- Collaboration software
- Document sharing

Rhabdomyolysis is a syndrome characterized by muscle necrosis and the release of intracellular muscle constituents into the circulation. Creatine kinase (CK) levels are typically markedly elevated, and muscle pain and myoglobinuria may be present. The severity of illness ranges from asymptomatic elevations in serum muscle enzymes to life-threatening disease associated with extreme enzyme elevations, electrolyte imbalances, and acute kidney injury.
The clinical manifestations and diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis will be reviewed here. The causes of rhabdomyolysis; the clinical features and diagnosis of acute kidney injury due to rhabdomyolysis; the management of patients with rhabdomyolysis, including methods to prevent acute kidney injury and related metabolic complications; and the prevention and management of acute compartment syndrome are discussed in detail separately. (See "Causes of rhabdomyolysis" and "Clinical features and diagnosis of heme pigment-induced acute kidney injury" and "Prevention and treatment of heme pigment-induced acute kidney injury" and "Crush-related acute kidney injury (acute renal failure)" and "Acute compartment syndrome of the extremities".)
Rhabdomyolysis is characterized clinically by myalgias, red to brown urine due to myoglobinuria, and elevated serum muscle enzymes (including creatine kinase [CK]) [1]. The degree of muscle pain and other symptoms varies widely. Rhabdomyolysis associated with viral infection is discussed in further detail separately. (See "Viral myositis", section on 'Viral myositis with rhabdomyolysis'.)
Symptoms — The characteristic triad of complaints in rhabdomyolysis is muscle pain, weakness, and dark urine [2-5]. However, more than half of patients may not report muscular symptoms [3]; by contrast, occasional others may experience very severe pain. Muscle pain, when present, is typically most prominent in proximal muscle groups, such as the thighs and shoulders, and in the lower back and calves [2,5]. Other muscle symptoms include stiffness and cramping.
Additional symptoms that are more common in severely affected patients include malaise, fever, tachycardia, nausea and vomiting, and abdominal pain [2]. Altered mental status may occur from the underlying etiology (eg, toxins, drugs, trauma, or electrolyte abnormalities).

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - George Hill had a career-high 37 points, nine rebounds and eight assists, leading the Indiana Pacers to a 118-113 overtime victory over the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday night.
Damian Lillard had 38 points and 11 assists and LaMarcus Aldridge had 22 points for the Trail Blazers (35-15).
George converted a steal into the go-ahead dunk with 3:48 left in overtime, putting the Pacers ahead 107-105. West dunked with 1:37 left to make it 111-107.
Hill hit a 3-pointer with 8 seconds left in regulation to tie the game at 103 to force overtime.
George made a 3 with 1:30 remaining to put the Pacers ahead 100-99, but then Wesley Matthews scored and Nicolas Batum made a pair of free throws to put the Trail Blazers ahead 103-100 before Hill tied the game.
West scored 10 points in the fourth quarter to keep Indiana in the game.
He made a jumper to tie it at 91 with 3:54 left in regulation and later tied the game at 97.
Indiana's newest addition was inactive. Andrew Bynum joined the team on Friday, a week after signing with the Pacers and over a month after being suspended indefinitely by the Cleveland Cavaliers.
He played in 24 games for the Cavaliers this season, but hasn't played a game since Dec. 26. Pacers coach Frank Vogel doesn't expect the 7-foot center to play for several more weeks and said he wants to make sure Bynum is comfortable before throwing him into Indiana's rotations.
But the Pacers could have used his rebounding.
By halftime, the Trail Blazers had a 25-15 edge and held Indiana to no offensive rebounds. And the Pacers trailed just 50-45 at the break.
The Pacers went on a 10-2 run in the second quarter. C.J. Watson scored a free throw and Granger converted a 3-point play before Dorell Wright made two free throws, Watson made pair, Granger scored on a jumper and Rasual Butler hit a 3-pointer to make it 30-27 with 8:10 left in the first half.
Lillard scored to give the Trail Blazers 44-35 lead with 3:29 left in the second quarter. Then the Pacers went on 8-2 run capped off with a shot by Hibbert to make it 46-43.
Aldridge answered with a basket and West scored for Indiana before Lillard scored a wide-open layup with 2 seconds left to give the Trail Blazers a five point halftime lead.
Pacers forward Lance Stephenson was out with a sore lower back. He was injured during a fall in Indiana's 89-85 win over Atlanta on Tuesday.
Vogel said Stephenson bounces back from injuries quickly and doesn't expect him to miss many games.
NOTES: Stephenson averages 14.1 points, 7.2 rebounds and 5.3 assists a game. He's started every game he's played this year and has missed just one game, on Jan. 8. Granger, who finished with seven points and six rebounds, started for Stephenson in that game in January and started Friday night's game, too. It's the only two starts for Granger in nearly two years. ... The Trail Blazers were without guard Mo Williams, who missed the game because of personal reasons.

Despite looking out for the village, it seems based on his attitude that he was also doing this because he hated the Uchiha, claiming it was good that they were wiped out.
With revgards to Edo Tensei, it's more a problem of bringing back the dead. It doesn't matter that he's using it to hep the village. It's more the idea of dragging someone's soul back. The 2nd mizukage and the 2nd tsuchikage, as well as a few other resurrected nin, seemed to show disgust for whoever brought them back, before knowing the reason or who was controlling them. Perhaps hey considered it crossing a boundary...? However, I didn't have a problem with the fact that he created edo tensei, I just had a problem with his personality. He really acted like a jerk.

Thank You, Places...Production Stage Manager KATIE VEGLIO
by Jeffrey Ellis - Jun 20, 2017
What's a stage manager? What do they do? What's their job? Seriously. Perhaps no job in the theater is as hard to define as that of a production stage manager and it's that blend of mystery, fear and total dependence that makes actors, directors, crew members, producers - you name it! - hold a really great stage manager in total awe and to revile someone who is (how do you say it, without offending anyone?) less than stellar in their position?

BWW Review: SISTER ACT Comes Bearing Gifts of Joyful Noise
by Robert Encila - Jul 2, 2017
Sister Act was a Hollywood blockbuster in the early 1990s, pegged as a family comedy that cashed in on the sheer star power of Whoopi Goldberg. A quarter of a century later, Whoopi remains at the helm--this time as a producer of the Broadway incarnation. While her illustrious charm sells almost everything she's in, Sister Act the motion picture doesn't begin to compare to the polished genius of this stage adaptation. (more...)

BWW Review: Battling Dementia in THE OTHER PLACE at Theatre Tuscaloosa
by David Edward Perry - Aug 10, 2017
'The Other Place' by Sharr White is a play exposing the struggle of adjusting to declining mental ability. It's a heart-tugging and at times funny story of a sharp and empowered woman fighting with a splintering mental health dilemma. White's writing brings to light the frustration of dementia. The play gives a voice to those suffering with dementia and the effect on their caregivers. 'The Other Place' opens with Juliana (Carol DeVelice) giving narration to her backstory as a successful scientist and businesswoman. With each line Juliana's mental stability slowly begins to crack like a broken window in a storm. Her confusion leads to a string of unsettling events. Juliana suffers lack of focus and speech, memory loss and repeated sightings of a young woman in a yellow polka dot bikini. She is stubborn as a nail and rejects any diagnosis, except her own hypochondriac self-diagnosis of having brain cancer. DeVelice gives limitless emotion into Juliana exhausting internal journey on stage. Scene after scene her frustration builds to boiling points to be forgotten by another train of thought. (more...)

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 30/5/2013 (1543 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A 33-year-old Winnipeg home daycare provider has been charged with child abandonment after six children, between ages one and five, were allegedly left alone for at least one hour Tuesday.
Police said today they were called to the home daycare in St. Vital after a parent arrived to pick up a child around 2 p.m. and found the six kids alone.
This was an unlicensed daycare and is "no longer operational," police say.
The woman was released on a promise to appear in court at a later date. Her name was not released by police.

Solden Snow Report 12/04/2013
Here is the latest snow report from our team in Solden
There is 254cm of snow at the top of the Solden ski area with 10cm of snow in resort. The last snowfall was on 10th April with around 1cm falling.
There are 100% of pistes open in the Solden ski area with 77% ski lifts open.
The heavy snow forecasted for today is to bring around 20cm of snow altogether at mid station by tomorrow morning – and around 5cm more up on the glacier!! Fabulous news for the snow at this time of year. However, Spring is to return with the snow clouds completely disappearing by Saturday with wall-to-wall sunshine to continue into early next week! The temperatures are staying below
freezing at mid-station, but from Saturday the sunshine is really heating things up with maximum temperatures of 8/9 degrees Celsius and plus 1 on the glacier!!
The forecasted snow seems to be have been pushed back, as the sun is breaking through the clouds
this morning! There are still lingering clouds, however, so the light is quite flat. It is surprisingly warm and the milder temperatures and bright sunshine affected the snow quality yesterday – with it becoming quite slushy, especiallyin the afternoon! This means the home runs are suffering the most, so if soft, wet snow is not your cup of tea, down loading on the gondolas might be the best idea!!
With a week full of fun-filled events and parties, the Gay Snowhappening 2013 is coming to a close today! The last Gay Ski Guiding starts at 10am at the Giggijoch with lunch stop at Eugen's Obstlerhuette on red 19 at 1pm. Later there will be a Live band at the Giggijoch from 3pm to warm you up for this Evening's top event: Hannibal, and later from 10pm the final Party will be in Mogul (entrance €5). The greatly anticipated and publicised 'Hannibal' is taking place this evening from 7:30pm on the Rettenbach glacier. The bi- Annual open-air theatre production, telling the story of Military commander, Hannibal, who marched his army from the Pyrenees, through the Alps and into Northern Italy, is a Spectacle not to be missed!! With 500 people involved in the Production, the performance consists of piste bashers, dancers, planes, helicopters and acrobats – with snow-sculpted elephants, impressive light shows and pyrotechnics! Tickets are €39 for adults, with bus pick-ups from 5:30pm in town to take you to the glacier. Perfectly times with the sunshine forecasted tomorrow, is Soelden's First volley ball competition taking place at the Giggijoch Fun-zone. It kicks off at 9am tomorrow and the tournament Continues all day – teams can enter online with €30 entry fee, Standard rules apply and big prizes are up for grabs!!

What if The Expendables Were Women?
You can round up a bunch of aging action stars and call it a halfway-decent, end-of-summer movie, and then you can put together ten female heroes who look as good with a firearm as they do in leather. We cast the blockbuster that should have been.GOT A BETTER LINEUP? Talk Back on Twitter and Facebook >>

Linda Hamilton
Action credentials: Sure, Terminator 2 had the liquid-metal CGI, but we still prefer to remember those... arms. Never has a mother in a sweaty tanktop looked at once so intimidating and hot.
The now-expendable Expendable: Sylvester Stallone
Kate Beckinsale
Action credentials: Looks great in leather, whether as a vampire (Underworld) or vampire hunter (Van Helsing). Our reigning Sexiest Woman Alive has brains, too she studied literature at Oxford.
The now-expendable Expendable: Jason Statham
Zhang Ziyi
Action credentials: She may not be a professionally trained martial artist, but she is a professionally trained dancer. And forget Crouching Tiger that wire work in Hero did it for us. Also: just an inch shorter than...
The now-expendable Expendable: Jet Li
Pamela Anderson
Action credentials: Exceptional slow motion runner. Tattooed.
The now-expendable Expendable: Dolph Lundgren
Gina Carano
Action credentials: "Played" Crush in NBC's relaunch of American Gladiators. Daughter of Cowboys quarterback. Also: better MMA winning percentage than...

The now-expendable Expendable: Terry Crews
Grace Jones
Action credentials: Is there another human being on Earth more singularly terrifying and insane than Grace Jones? Anyone?
The now-expendable Expendable: Mickey Rourke
Brigitte Nielsen

The now-expendable Expendable: Arnold Schwarzenegger
Demi Moore

Adjacent to the McKenzie House, the Cushman House, circa 1885, was one of the original Gainesville homes that lined Old Alachua Avenue, now University Avenue. Beautifully restored to its original grandeur, this home is a joy to explore. With its high ceilings, antique light fixtures, sitting parlors and library, the Cushman House hosts seven beautifully appointed guest rooms. Read more on the the Cushman House history.
About the Cushman House
Three of the Cushman House rooms (Tiffany, Heirloom and Piccadilly) include a beautifully restored parlor andsitting room. The surrounding area is a mix of pleasant pathways, gardens and fountains and is connected to the adjacent McKenzie House Gardens.
From Our Guests
I had the pleasure of staying at the Sweetwater Branch Inn for 2 night this past summer. The cottage was very spacious with ample room to throw a small party. It has a well appointed eat-in kitchen, a Jacuzzi on the porch, and a super comfy bed. The gardens were gorgeous and the food was delicious! I had a wonderful time chatting with the innkeepers too. It is located in a lovely area with lots of period homes.
My wife, daughter and I spent an afternoon and evening at Sweetwater and we really enjoyed Lilly's cottage. There was lots of room to stretch out and cool off. There was a nice whirlpool spa on the back porch…Fun stuff around Sweetwater Branch Inn.
This is one of THE BEST PLACES we have ever stayed in. Victoria's Cottage is a very special "home". Has everything you could want or need. Great front porch to sit on a rocking chair and enjoy the surroundings. Beautiful gardens, great food, but most of all, the staff. Nicest group of people we have ever met. You made our 20th anniversary very memorable. THANK YOU ALL.

Invensys Makeover
Found this in the course of my ritual morning check of Twitter. Invensys Operations Management has launched its redesigned website with the goal of rationalizing to outsiders the relationships between its various companies. See the new site here. The news release is below.
Invensys Operations Management Introduces New Website
JANUARY 21, 2010/PLANO, TEXAS – Invensys Operations Management, a global provider of technology systems, software solutions and consulting services to the process and manufacturing industries, today announced the launch of a new corporate website.

Liv Tyler Wearing Red Heels
Heel Yes! We Can't Get Enough of Liv Tyler's Shoes
There are ways to punch up your outfit — and then there's the Liv Tyler way to do it. While promoting The Hobbit last night, the actress gave an all-black outfit a cheery lift with a fiery pair of Tabitha Simmons ankle-strap heels ($1,245). It's another testament to our styling theory that just a touch of the holiday hue goes a long way, especially when it's paired with an otherwise all-black look. It's the more modern approach to festive styling. Rather than commit to that over-the-top party dress, you get just the right dose of eye-popping red. It's also not at all hard to re-create, and it doesn't require the exact same outfit approach, either. All you need to steal Liv's statement-making style is your favorite LBD and tights, black shorts, and a tuxedo blazer, or any combination of dressed-up black separates. Of course, if you don't already have the same standout heels in your closet, now's the perfect time to shop a pair of our editors' picks. And if you want to amp it up a notch, embrace Liv's other on-point finishers, like a pair of decadent earrings and a bold red lip.
