  1. Thats great you dont have issues, the yellow discolouratoin was a relatively rare issue, not having prox.sensor issues is solid, I know alot of ppl that have that one ...

     

    As for the ports being covered up, its a rumour in the mobile circuit (xda, engadget, etc ..) ... The editor and chief of engadget made a post about it earlier in the week...

     

    The white cases will have to be remade anyways, so why not just cover the port hole i guess is the argument there ... it woudl save apple alot of money in the long run ... Agreed, just a rumour, before being flamed for posting it.. lol.... The speculation is, thats why the white iPhone 4 has been delayed for so long, to make sure the 2nd wave doesn't have that external port.

     

    again, speculation, and rumour, but from the most reliable mobile sources on the internet... people who havn't steered me wrong before with leaks, and knowledge of other phone manufacturers and there news before it hits the public ears/eyes.

     

    good to know, thanks!

  2. If your looking to purchase an iPhone 4, be it on contract, or outright .... your best bet is to wait till the next manufactured wave gets released...

     

    you won thave to buy a bumper in which case, the white ones are the next wave to be released, and the antenna ports have been covered up for these, so you wnot have teh rediculous reception loss holding it in your left hand ..

     

    if you can be patient, waiting is the best course of action.

     

    thats not even counting the yellowed screens, or the boot loop issues with this wave of phones, steve jobbs pushed them out way to early

     

    how do you know about antenna ports being covered in the next wave? any proof?

     

    I also have no antenna issues, yellow tintage or proximity sensor issues and really enjoying this chunk of metal :whistling:

  3. Hey! all you river fishermen Which Wading Jacket would you recommend for the upcoming fall S&S season?

    Thanks.

     

    I've been using Simms G3 Gore-Tex Guide jacket and absolutely love it. Very durable and comfortable. A+++

  4. Does anyone work at Rogers that can help me with getting an iphone 4. I live in the Barrie area and they just tell me to keep calling them. It's getting frustrating :wallbash:. Any help with shipment dates would be great Pm me if you might get in trouble lol

     

    good luck Henry, got mine last Friday. I hear that Apple stores get daily shipments.

  5. Rattletrap take a look at the ammo prices, a 22 long rifle will work on most small animals, and you won`t put much of a dent in the wallet buying ammo to practice or shoot. Center fire cartridges are much more expensive. Most of your 22 rifles are chambered for 22 longs I wouldn`t mess with shorts, just not as strong. I don`t know what they sell up there, but here you can by 22 subsonics, a much quieter round, not as fast moving though.

     

    A 22 rifle can be very accurate in the hands of a good shooter, and they are popular because of their price and the price of ammo for them. I can shoot in my back yard here in the country and have done so, I have railroad tracks that are 4-5 feet higher than the land at the back of my property a back stop. A 22 will go a long way, some caution is needed if you have neighbors behind you.

     

    a rough idea of ammo prices

    Neighbors here regularly knock off groundhogs with 22`s, lol and my dog brings their dead bodies home, bad dog! leave it in the neighbors yard. Ground hogs and horses don`t mix well, too many chances for broken legs.

     

     

    I'm thinking of getting CZ 453 Varmint in .17HMR :whistling:

  6. taken from another board but I thought I'd share with other Turks Hunters:

     

     

    As a responsible turkey hunter, I will

     

    .Not let peer pressure or the excitement of the hunt cloud my judgment:

    .Learn the practice safe hunting techniques:

    .Hunt the wild turkey fairly:

    .Know the capabilities and limitations of my gun or bow and use it safely:

    .Obey and support all wildlife laws and report all violations:

    .Respect the land and the landowner and always obtain permission before hunting:

    .Avoid knowingly interfering with another hunter and respect the right of others to lawfully share the outdoors:

    .Value the hunting experience and appreciate the beauty of the wild turkey:

    .Positively identify my target as a legal bird and insist on a good shot:

    .And share responsible turkey hunting with others and work for wild turkey conservation:

     

    Have a safe and successful season.

  7. If its taken in a legal season there is nothing wrong with it at all, and its no different then harvesting any other animal, or fish for that matter.

    Be it for a hide, sustinace or trophy its legal and I'd tread carefully on how you value one animal over another lest ye give P3TA amunition.

    Outdoorsman alike should support our kin even if is not our cup of tea.

     

    If I shot a wolf for a hide...is it any different then you taking a Muskie, or a bass in season to be stuffed?

    Its the same thing except some people revere Wolves as Dogs, and think of them as Pets....which they ain't.

     

    The MNR sets the guidelines around here, and they do it based on hard science to promote "healthy" populations keeping sport in mind as a secondary thought.

    It all plays into a master plan that acounts for other animals that the Wolves prey on such as Beavers, Rabbits, Deer, Moose etc...

    It's all about balance, and we should leave that to the experts.

     

    Its the tree hugger mantality that canceled the Spring Bear hunt and that is not exsactly sitting well with people these day is it?

     

    To each there own as long as its with in the law, and the law is doing their due dillegence in supporting a sustainable healthy population.

     

    Sorry if I come across as harsh but don't go spouting off about wanting to hunt the hunters cause you feel bad for the big wild puppy dogs

    :rolleyes:

    well said Cookslav, let's not promote P3TA :lol:

     

    How about slaughtered beef, chickens and other hormone ejected meals? I got into hunting for ethical reasons.

  8. Respect an Angler's Space

    This is probably the most violated rule on the river. Many popular sections of a river can be very crowded during the spawning run. Crowding another angler is inconsiderate. If you approach him or her, make sure to ask before moving into the area. Give the angler enough space so the two of you can fish without interference.

     

    Don't Walk into a Run

    Nothing aggrevates a veteran steelheader more than another angler walking into a run of fish. Most of the time it's because the person is not familiar with the stream. Most new steelheader's are not yet accustomed to reading water. A common rule I use is "don't go past your knees". Once again, watch where people are fishing. If you're not sure, ask.

     

    Don't Jump into Another Person's Spot

    When an angler is fighting a fish, more than often they may have to move from their spot to land the fish. This doesn't mean the space is available, because more than likely the person is coming back.

     

    Don't Play a Foul Hooked Fish

    If you foul hook (accidentally snag) a steelhead, snap the line. Tackle is cheap. Most foul hooked steelhead are very difficult to control, resulting in injury or unnecessary stress to the fish. Once foul hooked, they will leap from the water and thrash about, spooking the other fish. If you repeatedly fight foul hooked fish in a crowded section, you'll become very unpopular. Also, you will find most game wardens look at this practice unfavorably.

     

    Tolerate Other Forms of Fishing

    This is a never ending debate on the local rivers: fly fishermen Vs bait fishermen. To some anglers, fly fishing is the only way to catch steelhead, because they are a trout. I use both fly and spinning gear. One day, I may use minnows - another day I'll drift nymphs. Nothing gets my blood boiling faster than a loudmouth elitist. There is no better or worse style of fishing for steelhead.

     

    Respect People's Property

    This has become a major problem on Lake Erie's tributaries. Every year more and more landowners have posted "No Trespassing" signs on their property because they're fed up with garbage left behind and a general lack of respect. If you come upon a posted property don't trespass. If you want to fish there, ask the landowner. If they say "no" respect their wishes. If they allow you, do something nice in return such as cleaning up garbage along the shore.

     

    Don't Litter

    Often when I'm fishing I see garbage everywhere. First of all it's pollutes the environment and it's an eyesore. Some sections of streams have been closed to fishing because landowners were fed up with garbage along their property. Make it a habit to pick up discarded monofilament, cans and other trash, and dispose of them properly.

     

    Questioning Anglers that Keep or Release Fish

    There is nothing wrong with keeping a fish. Likewise, there is nothing wrong with releasing your catch. If you see an angler release a nice size fish, it is considered rude to say "Aren't you going to keep that?" or "You should keep that one!".

     

    Give Others Space When Fighting A Fish

    Give other anglers enough room to land their catch. If it's necessary, take your line out of the water to give them some space. This may happen when you're fishing down river and another angler has to move down river to land a fish.

     

    Walk Quietly Around Others

    Be courteous to those already on the streams. Walk behind other anglers and out of the water if possible. If you must stay in the water, walk with minimum surface disturbance.

  9. If you are going to Vegas and you happen to be a Gun Enthusiast of any shape or form, you MUST go to The Gun Store Las Vegas. This place is absolutely amazing and a must do while visiting sin city! You can rent ANY automatic weapon that is manufactured either for the civilian, or military and law enforcement application. Everything from an M4A, UZI, AK47, Berretas, Glocks, Bennelli Automatic Shotguns, Colt 45, 357mags you name it, they got it and you can rent it along with as many clips you wish to fire down their range! It is a hoot!

     

    Unless you win big on the slots or with the vegas girls, this will be the best $100.00 you will spend in the city! If you happen to strike out on the slots or the girls, this will often assist you in releiving pent up frustration!

     

    Here is website if you are interested.
