FAQ - General
Why has the wallet holster been discontinued?
The wallet, in and of itself, is a benign piece of folded leather. The minirevolver is a time-tested, high-quality small firearm but, when you join one with the other, watch out! _ you've just created what ATF defines as 'any other weapon', a rather nefarious classification which includes pen guns, cane guns and other disguised weaponry. While legal to own, AOWs require registration and payment of special taxes similar to those for fully-automatic weapons. Possession of an AOW without meeting these requirements subjects the holder to a felony charge (which further exposes us to the liability of a lawsuit).
The distinction between the WH and the folding holster grip or the belt buckle, as it has been explained to us, is that the WH weapon is operable from its disguised state (no need to remove it from the wallet in order to fire it). Both the HG and BB require that the gun be additionally manipulated (opened, removed) before it is functional, and so suffer no 'special' classification. The WH was a very popular accessory and it's a great disappointment that we're unable to offer it for sale.
Does wearing the Belt Buckle holding an NAA minirevolver represent a 'concealed' condition? Do I need a license of any kind to wear it (and the gun)?
This depends on a number of factors, not the least of which includes the girth and midriff overhang of the wearer. Seriously the laws which govern the carrying of firearms are specific state to state. It's my observation that the definition of 'concealed' varies greatly from one jurisdiction to another. We are manufacturers, not lawyers, and won't pretend to offer any advice here; please check with the appropriate authorities in your location for a definitive answer.
As an individual, can I buy a gun directly from NAA?
In a word, no. NAA is pleased to sell accessories and services directly to the individual, either through our website or over the phone (800-821-5783). Otherwise, we are generally prohibited by federal law from selling firearms to unlicensed individuals (a concealed carry permit is not the same as an FFL, below). One noteworthy exception applies to The Companion, the cap-and-ball version of our minirevolver, which our government has determined to be a non-regulated firearm (this typically includes blackpowder, curios and collectibles).
You can, however, order a pre-customized (and pre-paid) Guardian, and take delivery through the licensed dealer of your choice.
Where can I locate the nearest authorized NAA dealer?
Any person or business that holds a valid, current Class 3 Federal Firearms License (FFL) issued by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms (BATF) is an authorized dealer – whether they stock our products or not. Typically, the more successful and well-rounded dealers (such as those listed on our site) will have NAA products in their display cases and inventory. Notwithstanding, our distributor base is so broad as to insure that any dealer can order and receive our products, typically within 72 hours.
As a dealer, can I buy directly from NAA?
While the law allows us to sell dealer-direct (in contrast to individual-direct, above), our business practice is to sell exclusively through our distributor network, for all those reasons outlined in October 2000's Soapbox. Exceptions to this policy include The Companion (cap & ball), as well as any of our accessories, which distributors frequently do not stock.
What ammunition do you recommend?
We don't make ammunition recommendations. We are happy to provide a very extensive table of velocity results we have measured with a wide range of brands and loads. Additionally, you will find this a very popular point of discussion on our Message Board.
FAQ - Mini-Revolver Safety Cylinder
FAQ – Mini-Revolver Safety Cylinder
North American Arms Mini-Revolvers are equipped with a unique safety cylinder, giving you maximum protection against accidental discharge.
The North American Arms Safety Cylinder feature allows the gun to be carried fully loaded. There are halfway notches located between the chambers. The hammer is lowered into one of these notches after the gun is loaded. When the hammer is pulled back to the firing position the cylinder rotates to the next chamber.
NOTE: The traditional half-cock position is to be used for loading and unloading only. THE HAMMER SHOULD NEVER REST IN THE HALF-COCK POSITION OVER A LIVE CARTRIDGE, OR ON THE RIM OF A LIVE CARTRIDGE.
If you have an older model NAA Mini-Revolver, or know someone who does, please check to see if it is equipped with the NAA Safety Cylinder – if not please call at 800-821-5783 to find out how to update the gun to the new cylinder.
NAA Mini-Revolvers come with a Lifetime Warranty. If anything should ever go wrong with your Mini-Revolver, please call Customer Support to find out how to send the gun to us for repair.
Note: The following instructions are from our FAQ – 22 Caliber Mini-Revolvers.
The Safety Cylinder is a critical part of the gun. We recommend that you practice the following steps to become proficient at using the Safety Cylinder before loading the gun.
First: Make sure the gun is unloaded.
Second: Make sure the gun is unloaded!
Third: Retract the hammer to the point that the cylinder spins freely (about half-way) and keep it retracted.
Fourth: Looking through the top/rear of the frame, locate any of the five milled safety slots (those notches on the cylinder between the chambers), and position any slot directly beneath the blade of the hammer (which is still retracted).
Fifth: While still retracting the hammer, depress the trigger (and keep it depressed)
now allow the hammer to settle into the slot.
You can (should) confirm engagement of the hammer in the slot by attempting to rotate the cylinder; if it does rotate, the hammer was not engaged in the slot (repeat the process). Visually confirm, also, by examining the alignment of any chamber with the bore; if a bullet could physically pass from the chamber through the bore, the gun is not 'safe'. In other words, if a chamber is located at 12 o'clock, the gun is not 'safe'; in the 'safe' condition, the upper two chambers are at one and eleven o'clock. 99.9% of the failures are because the trigger was not kept fully depressed while the hammer was being lowered (Step 5). Once you get the hang of it, however, you'll find the process becomes surprisingly easy, quick and natural.
FAQ - Mini-Revolvers
.22 Mini-Revolver Frequently Asked Questions
Can I fire .22 Shorts in a .22 LR cylinder?
Yes, Shorts can be fired in a Long Rifle cylinder; the case diameter of the two are identical.
Can I fire .22 Shorts/.22 LR in a Magnum cylinder? No! WMR (Magnum) cartridges have an incrementally larger diameter because the brass fits around the bullet. .22 LR bullets have a ridge cut into them, so the brass is even with the top part of the bullet. While Shorts and LRs can physically be placed into the chambers of a WMR cylinder (but you'll notice a sloppy fit), it is not safe to do so, as the brass case may split when fired.
For guns which have conversion (second) cylinders, the cylinder size is stamped on the end of the cylinder (or use a WMR cartridge as a gauge; if it fits the chamber, it's a WMR cylinder).
Can I fire 'snake/bird shot' shells in minirevolvers? Sure. While the lethality of this round is questionable, shot pellets can be remarkably effective when fired in the face of an assailant.
Are the mother of pearl grips made of real mother of pearl? Yes. We recommend removing these grips from the gun before shooting, as they are very likely (almost guaranteed) to crack if you shoot the gun with them on. While the Synthetic Pearl (plastic) is more durable, those have cracked as well.
I am having difficulty resting the hammer blade in the safety slot on the cylinder; any suggestions? Yes, it's a critically important feature of the gun, so PRACTICE. First: Make sure the gun is unloaded.
My minirevolver doesn't have a safety cylinder? Can I have one installed?
Yes, we would be happy to install a replacement cylinder, free of charge. Return the gun to the factory and we will update it promptly. There is a return shipping fee – see our shipping instructions page for more information.
Can I order additional cylinders?
Absolutely. LR-frame guns can have additional LR cylinders; Magnum-frame guns (including the Black Widow and Mini-Master) can accommodate either LR or WMR cylinders, regardless of their original configuration (some people originally order BWs and MMs in LR only). However, we require that the gun be returned to us so that we can assure ourselves, as well as you, that the gun is properly timed. The necessary (and absolute) alignment of the chambers with the gun's bore is critical and often requires a little tweaking of the cylinder star &/or hand &/or bolt.
Can I use a friend's NAA cylinder in my minirevolver?
While it may be physically possible, it's not a practice we recommend, as there may be incremental, but critical, differences in the timing of your friend's gun and your own. All frame/cylinder combinations are individually timed (see above). Our advice is a resounding "No!".
Will dry firing harm this gun?
If you first remove the cylinder, dry firing is a great way of becoming accustomed to the trigger pull. Otherwise, while it's unlikely that any harm will come to the firearm, it's not a practice we recommend. This applies to The Companion (cap & ball mini) as well.
FAQ - Cap & Ball
Cap & Ball Mini-Revolver Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have a bullet mold?
No, we do not offer a bullet mold. You can purchase bullets over the web or call us at 1-800-821-5783. The cost is $4.00 for 100, plus shipping.
Can a rimfire cylinder work in a black powder frame?
No, the guns have different firing pins, they cannot be interchanged.
Does a cap and ball gun need to be sent in for a new cylinder like the rimfire guns?
Yes, send in the entire gun. The cost for the cylinder is $40 unfluted, $45 fluted.
My cylinder won't go in the gun when the caps are on the nipples.
The gun was designed to work with remington #11 caps. If you use a different brand or size the cap is too thick and will extend past the cylinder edge.
Can I use cylinders from cartridge firing minirevolvers in my Companion?
No, a Companion cannot fire cartridge-type ammunition; the cap & ball model uses a transfer pin to deliver a center fire strike against a primer cap, as compared to a blade striking a cartridge rim. Additionally, the cartridge cylinder is smaller than the Companion cylinder and 'slops around' within the Companion frame. Nor will a .22 cartridge fit within a Companion cylinder, even with the nipples removed. Don't even think of going there.
Dry fire
Can I dry fire the gun?
No, dry firing will crack the nipples and can damage the firing pin.
I can't find the ffffg powder, can I use fffg or pyrodex?
Yes, you can use fffg and pyrodex p. The f stand for fine, the ffffg is a finer powder, and will allow you to add more powder allowing more of a discharge. Do not go less than fffg.
FAQ - Slip-on Grips
What is the recommended installation technique to install the GSO-M?
To avoid damaging or tearing grips, apply a small amount of gun oil on the frame handle before installing the grips.
FAQ - Guardians
Guardian Pistols – FAQ
Provided by: Mr. Sandy Chisholm – President, North American Arms, Inc.
Note: The information here applies to all models of Guardian Pistols, except where noted.
What is the barrel length?
25 NAA and .32 ACP Guardians – 2.185 inches.
.380 and .32NAA Guardians – 2.49 inches
Does the Guardian have a straight blowback or a retarded blowback?
It has a straight blowback.
What do you take apart to clean it?
For normal cleaning, the NAA Guardian need only be disassembled into its main:
3. Inner and outer recoil spring
4. Magazine
What grease should you use?
For long time storage, any commercially available gun grease is acceptable.
Last round
I have read/experienced that the case from the last spent round occasionally gets stuck between the slide and the frame. Is this a product 'failure'? Should I be concerned?
No, frankly, not at all. Yes, we are aware of, and understand the causes of, this condition. Yes, it is not an uncommon occurrence. No, we do not believe it represents a performance failure and we do not intend to try to 'correct' the condition.
The design of this pistol does not include an ejector (not to be confused with an extractor), but relies on the following action of a fresh cartridge, as it is moving up the magazine stack and towards the chamber, to push the spent extracted case out of the breech. When the magazine is empty and there is no following cartridge to exert this pressure, the spent case may simply be trapped by the slide returning forward (the slide is not designed to remain open after the last round).
When a full magazine is inserted to replace the empty one, the slide must, in any/every event ('stovepipe' or not) be re-racked to chamber a fresh round. During this process, the spent case simply falls freely out of the breech and the pistol returns to battery – as though the condition had never existed. (Please note that we are not attempting to excuse any stovepipe of a live round. If that condition exists with any of our pistols, we will be happy to rework the gun to eliminate that failure).
How much for an extra magazine?
Retail $25.00.
Does it need to be factory installed?
Is there any ammo that will not work in the magazine?
Why did I receive a new magazine release with the mag extension kit?
The new magazine release is necessary for .32 ACP Guardians with aa and ab serial numbers. If you do not replace the magazine release the magazines will dislodge when fired using the mag extensions.
Can I get the magazines with the metal floor plates?
No, those magazines are no longer manufactured.
My magazine occasionally falls from the gun when firing. What's happening here?
Shortly after the finger extension was introduced, we found that the downward pressure on the magazine increases substantially with the use of this extension (caused by the grip pressure of the ring or baby finger on this extension). This additional pressure, along with the shock of firing the pistol, caused our original catch to occasionally release inadvertently. We have redesigned/strengthened this catch; a free replacement (which can easily be installed by the user) is available on request to the factory.
Is the entire (slide, parts, magazines) gun made from casting or is it forged?
The frame is a casting, the slide is machined from 17-4 stainless steel billet.
I thought the gun was made in the U.S. Why do my magazines say Italy?
The guns are produced in the United States. We chose Mecgar to manufacture our magazines, they are located in italy.
Misfires
What do you do if it misfires?
Clean it, refer to owners manual.
Rifling
What is the rate of twist on the Guardian barrel?
1 in 16 inches rh twist.
What do you do if the slide gets stuck?
Is there a stop to hold the slide back for cleaning?
No, you just need to remove the slide for cleaning.
FAQ - Integral Locking System
FAQ – Integral Locking System
What is the Integral Locking Systems (ILS)
The ILS is a safety system that allows you to lock the hammer in place so the gun can not be fired. It has a key that can be used to lock and unlock the gun.
There is a small hole in the upper left corner of the grip – see figure #1. The key is placed in the hole gently until it fully engages the lock – see figure #2 – turning the key before it is fully in place can damage the lock and key threads. Turning the key clockwise ½ turn locks the hammer into place and disables the firearm. Turning the key counter clockwise ½ turn releases the hammer and enables the firing mechanism.
How can I tell if it's locked?
The ILS has a small nipple or button around the key hole. When unlocked, the button is flush with the grip – see figure #3. When locked, the button protrudes out of the grip and is no longer flush – see Figure #4.
Can the ILS be added to an older Guardian pistol?
Yes. The ILS incorporates changes to the Guardian frame, so older models require significant modifications and a number of new parts. Please see our Custom Shop – Machining page for more information and pricing.
How can I get a Guardian with the ILS?
If you live in certain states, like California, you don't have a choice – you have to get one with the ILS. In other states, you can special order the Guardian with the ILS. The part numbers are the same, except the ILS versions have an "S" at the end.
Are there any disadvantages to the ILS?
The ILS requires the black plastic grip with the hole in it for the key. We do not currently offer our other wood, plastic, and mother of pearl grips with the hole pre-drilled, because the hole significantly reduces the strength of the grip. In other words, the custom grip with the hole will crack or break after firing a few rounds.
Another issue is the keys. If you lock the gun and lose the keys, the gun is unusable until we can send you replacement keys. To minimize this, we send two keys, both with key rings, to make them harder to lose.
Warnings, disclaimers, etc.
Due to the design of the ILS, you must be careful not to lock the hammer while the slide is open. The closing of the slide on a locked hammer can damage the locking mechanism and disable the gun.
The keys are made of a composite material that is fairly strong. However, if you try hard, you can strip or break the keys. The key should turn easily. If not, the gun needs to be sent back to NAA for repair.
While the ILS is as good a locking system as there is, there can be no substitute for common sense firearm safety. Always store your firearm securely, out of the reach of children and unauthorized users. Firearm safety is everyone's responsibility.
FAQ - External Lock
Does North American Arms sell or endorse any gun safes?
No. We recommend storing firearms in a gun safe or a secure locking cabinet. However, we do not sell or endorse any one brand.
Do you sell a trigger lock for the Mini-Revolvers?
No. The Mini-Revolvers do not have a trigger guard and can not be fitted with a traditional trigger lock.
What kind of external locking systems are available for my NAA Firearms?
Both the Guardian pistols and the Mini-Revolvers come with a high quality metal lockable gun box.
What other methods can I use to safely store my NAA Firearms?
We offer a Rug holster (See our Accessories pages) for both Guardian pistols and Mini-Revolvers that has a ring at the end. A padlock can be run through the zipper pull and the ring to lock the holster shut.

Roberto Martinez defends poor Tim Howard display at Everton
PA Sport February 22, 2015 Everton, Leagues: EPL, Tim Howard 1 Comment
Roberto Martinez leapt to the defense of Tim Howard after the Everton goalkeeper put in another sub-par performance in the 2-2 draw against Leicester.
Howard was one of the stars of the World Cup last year, but his form has dipped considerably since he returned to England.
The American was dropped for Joel Robles at the turn of the year after making a number of mistakes and he was at fault again at Goodison Park on Sunday as Everton grabbed a lucky point thanks to an 88th-minute equalizer.
Just after Steven Naismith had put Everton ahead, Howard pushed Jamie Vardy's shot into the path of David Nugent to allow the Foxes to equalize and soon after the goalkeeper flapped at a cross, and Esteban Cambiasso drove a low shot into the home goal.
Luckily for Howard and Everton, Romelu Lukaku's late diving header flew in after a huge deflection off Matthew Upson to snatch a point for the hosts.
"I don't see Tim as directly responsible of the draw," Everton boss Martinez said.
"The first one is quite an unlucky action. He gets in some sort of a block, it hits John Stones' legs and it ends up in the Leicester striker's footpath.
"We have three players around him and it ends up with him.
"I don't think it was such a major error.
"I don't think it would solve anything if we just single out the player who made that mistake. As a team we need to defend much better in those situations."
Everton won only once during the eight-game stretch Robles had in goal, and it appears the Spaniard will not replace Howard in goal for Thursday's Europa League game against Young Boys.
"Tim Howard is one of our leaders, one of the most solid performers," Martinez said.
"What he brings as a goalkeeper is his understanding with other players, what he has achieved in the game, and when he is fully fit, he is a very strong performer.
"His performance against Chelsea was outstanding and his performance against Young Boys, after the first goal when he doesn't see the ball, was terrific.
"I don't think that is the difference between getting three points and one point today."
Howard was not the only one who failed to perform on Sunday.
Ross Barkley lacked dynamism and creativity, Aaron Lennon quickly faded after a bright start and Lukaku missed several opportunities before helping the hosts earn a point with his deflected header.
Everton's home form was key to their fifth-place finish last term, but they have won three and drawn six at Goodison Park this year.
Nigel Pearson was disappointed not to take three points back to Leicester.
"The dressing room is very disappointed because we did very well today," the Foxes boss said.
"We have got to turn these sort of performances into wins. There is not getting away from the predicament we find ourselves in but the performance was there today. We will have to bounce back."
Leicester are four points from safety and have Manchester City, Tottenham, Southampton and Chelsea to face in their final 11 games.
Pearson has not seen his team win in their last five Premier League matches, but he is still confident they will stay up.
"If we apply ourselves in the way we did today and at Arsenal, I think we will be fine," he said.
"The target is for us to get out of the mess we are in. I can't predict what (our) points total is going to be. First and foremost we have to stay in touch.
"We have been bottom since late November. It is a long time for the players to deal with the pressure of being in that situation.
"They conduct themselves exceptionally well. The spirit they have showed in a difficult season is very commendable."

Series One: Complete Edition
Cla$$war is a six-issue comic book limited series published by Com.x between 2002 and 2004. It was written by Rob Williams with art by Trevor Hairsine and Travel Foreman.
Williams has summed up the story as "a political thriller with superheroes," dealing with a government supersoldier programme and how the leading superhero, The American, deals with the revelation of the truth.[1]
1 Publication history
2 Reception
3 Collected editions
4 Film adaptation
The series, written by Rob Williams with art by Trevor Hairsine, was due to be launched in November 2001, but had to be delayed because of the 9/11 attacks.[2] The first three issues were finally published between January and July 2002[3] and were collected into a trade paperback in 2003.[4] When the publisher came back from a hiatus caused by problems including a serious burglary,[5][6] Hairsine had already moved on to Marvel[7] and, while Cary Nord was initially pencilled in as his replacement,[8] a job that finally went to Travel Foreman[1][9] and the last three issue were published between March and June 2004.[10][11] Len O'Grady[12] provided all the colouring to "maintain colour continuity".[13] When the publisher returned fully to publishing the series was collected into a hardcover edition.[14]
Although people make the link with The Authority, Williams has said he had not read the series before starting to write Cla$$war and he went on to explain the actual inspiration:
" Cla$$war was influenced by my love of people like Noam Chomsky - I was reading his Class Warfare when I came up with the idea for the series - and Bill Hicks, my fascination with Nixon and American politics in general. I spend half my time reading books on subjects like the CIA, biographies of people like Martin Luther King. For some reason I'm captivated by US history over the past 50 years
I also love intelligent superhero comics - a legacy from my dysfunctional youth and the effect Alan Moore's Captain Britain and Marvelman had on me in the early eighties. So I figured I'd combine the two.[1]
The series was always planned to run for twelve issues, and Williams has expressed an interest in writing the next six-issue story arc but he is concerned that "with the production quality and level of artist that the series has had in its different incarnations - it's really tough to sustain that over another six issues unless you're selling large numbers, and for an indie company like com.x that's tough to achieve."[15]
The reviews have largely been positive, apart from complaints about scheduling.[16][17] Michael Deeley reviewed the first issue for Comics Bulletin declared that it was a "this is a solid first issue for what promises to be an exciting and challenging story," with "tight" writing and "great art," the latter reminding him of "Gene Colan, but with a grittier texture."[18] The X-Axis thought it was an "impressive package"[19] and the review at Sequential Tart complimented the "gorgeous" art and drew on the comparisons, saying "where The Authority deals with interdimensional war and interstellar invasion, Cla$$war is much more personal and immediate."[20] Craig Lemon covered issue #2 for Comics Bulletin and concluded "a great title, a real breath of fresh air into a tired genre, one that doesn't rely on the shock value of revealing secret identities, or of constantly changing powers and/or costumes," suggesting some parallels with John Smith's New Statesmen.[21] Lemon returns for the third issue and suggests that "Rob Williams is really beginning to get into this scripting lark, hitting his stride with spot-on dialogue and humorous asides amid the serious plot."[17] Lemon also reviewed the trade collection of the first three issues, concluding that "a cracking script to go with his detailed plot, the right mixture of tension, intrigue plus humour" and that it "shows [Hairsine's] work off to its best effect, the amount of effort he put in is all there on the page...complemented by Len O'Grady's excellent colouring work," although he did point out problems with spelling errors.[22]
When the series recommenced, Lemon picked up the reviews again concluding that the fourth issue is "a bit like Supreme-Power-to-the-MAX, ideal for fans of that book or Rising Stars, or for anyone who demands a little more ... intelligence ... from their superheroes."[23] After the highpoint of the previous issue "#5 really just moves us from the bad guys looking for The American, to the confrontation itself" although "it still works and reads very well."[24] Craig Johnson reviewed the last issue for Comics Bulletin and suggested "you have a book which comes close to out-Authoritying The Authority, out-Ultimating The Ultimates."[25] The X-Axis was less impressed, suggesting that the scheduling made it miss the window where the story's politics were truly relevant: "by this point Cla$$war seems like a strangely contradiction - simultaneously a hamfisted anti-government rant, and a curious relic of a more innocent pre-9/11 era when you actually had to make up silly conspiracy theories to justify broadsiding the US government."[26]
SFX reviewed the complete collection and found itself agreeing and disagreeing with Craig Johnson's introduction to the book: "[s]o Johnson's right, if you don't have V for Vendetta, order it at once. But if you do, Cla$$war should be the next book on your must-buy list."[27] Troy Brownfield at Newsarama felt that "Rob Williams doesn't flinch when he puts a cold eye to this idea, and it's his willingness to stare deeply that gives the story its fire" and that "lend some terrific art to the proceedings" before concluding that the volume is "an action-packed super-hero tale with resonance and relevance."[28] Ain't it Cool News was impressed with Hairsine's art, suggesting he "deserves a blowjob while eating ice cream for this work," and they felt that the change of artists was not the problem it could have been, "[s]ure you knew it was a different guy, but he embodied the predecessor so well you just thought it was the original artist trying something new." They were also impressed with the story and the presentation of the hardcover volume, concluding "[o]verall the series is a powerhouse and this new hardcover collection certainly rocks - especially with an incredible amount of extras thrown in," with their main concern being that the series was planned for twelve issues, so the volume is only the first story arc:[29]
" There's a great build-up that launches into six amazing issues. It's a powerful story that hits you like a ton of bricks no matter how any times you read it. Yet the series simply ends after issue six. No new issues as of yet. It is a series that begs to be told and hopefully as the cover reads this is 'Series One' perhaps a 'Series Two' may be on the horizon. Now is that so bad? The lone gripe being I want more? No it is not. It is the sure tell sign of a comic book that has deeply impacted my psyche. "
The series has been collected into two trade paperbacks. The first was released in 2003 and brought together the three issues that had been published at that point and the second collects the entire six issues:
Cla$$war: Series One: Complete Edition (collects Cla$$war #1-6, 210 pages, March 2009, ISBN 160743816X)
This volume also contains a number of extras:[15] introductions by Andy Diggle and Craig Johnson, a new eight-page prologue by Williams and Hairsine, posters by Ben Oliver (Burner) and Mike McMahon (Enola Gay),[30] as well as Oliver's cover for the unpublished trade paperback collecting Cla$$war #4-6.[31]
Film adaptation
It was announced at the 2009 Long Beach Comic Con that the series has been optioned by Mandeville Films, the production company that made the film Surrogates based on the comic book of the same name. Rick Alexander, David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman will be the co-producers.[32]

Das Gasthaus Zum Rabenauer Grund ist ein denkmalgeschütztes Gebäude im Freitaler Stadtteil Hainsberg.

Das Haus befindet sich in der Ortslage Coßmannsdorf an der Somsdorfer Straße 6. Es liegt direkt am Abzweig der "neuen Serpentinstraße" (Höckendorfer Straße) vom Beginn des Alten Bergs nach Somsdorf am Eingang des Rabenauer Grunds. Unweit des Gebäudes fließt der Somsdorfer Bach hinab zur Roten Weißeritz. Der Gasthof besteht aus zwei rechtwinklig zueinander stehenden Gebäudeteilen mit Satteldach und zwei Geschossen, von denen das obere in Fachwerk ausgeführt ist. Das Fachwerk ist von zu den Straßenseiten hin rot gestrichenem Putz überdeckt. An der Nordseite befindet sich ein flacher Anbau. Der Hauptzugang befindet sich in Richtung der Somsdorfer Straße, auf dem Hof ist Platz für Außengastronomie.

Überliefert ist das Baujahr 1836, es wird aber davon ausgegangen, dass das Gebäude im Kern aus dem 18. Jahrhundert stammt. Durch die Lage an der Butterstraße, einer alten Handelsstraße zwischen Dresden und dem Erzgebirge, diente es in früheren Zeiten als Rasthaus für Fuhrleute auf ihrem Weg auf dem Abschnitt zwischen Coßmannsdorf und Somsdorf. Aufgrund des starken Gefälles auf dem Abstieg von Somsdorf hinab mussten die Fuhrwerke mit Hemmschuhen gebremst werden. Am Fuß des Bergs befand sich das Gasthaus und die Hemmschuhe konnten hier abgenommen werden, sodass sich die Bezeichnung "Hemmschuhschänke" einbürgerte.

Aufgrund seiner bau- und ortsgeschichtlichen Bedeutung wurde das Gasthaus Zum Rabenauer Grund in die Kulturdenkmalliste aufgenommen. Es wird bis heute als Gaststätte betrieben, seit 2002 von den derzeitigen Eigentümern, die mehrmals eine Empfehlung im Guide Michelin erreichten.

The Resolution For Men Leathertouch
Author : Stephen Kendrick
While Most Men Will Die With Deep Regrets, Others Will Resolve To Live For What Matters Most. The Resolution for Men is the inspiring book born out of the film Courageous, a film which presents a powerful story of strong male leadership and an emotionally charged wake-up call to fathers whose influence upon their children and society is immeasurable. The Resolution for Men follows to challenge men of all ages to become as bold and intentional about embracing their responsibilities as leaders of their homes, marriages, and children. Written by Stephen and Alex Kendrick, screenwriters of Courageous and authors of New York Times best seller The Love Dare (five million copies sold), The Resolution for Men strategically inspires men to reconcile with their past, re-engage in the present by taking full responsibility for their wives and children, and then move forward with a bold and clear resolution for the future. Written in partnership with the movie and Priscilla Shirer's book, The Resolution for Women, it is designed to inspire a revolution.
The Resolution For Men Bible Study
The Resolution: A Small-Group Study for Men was inspired by the resolution challenge featured in the movie COURAGEOUS. The resolution contained 12 commitments related to characteristics that all men of God want to pursue, such as responsibility, faithfulness, honor, justice, forgiveness, integrity, and courage. The Resolution Bible study walks participants through each of the 12 challenges, identifying their biblical roots and outlining how to live out each godly principle in real life.
The Resolution For Men Day By Day
This one-year devotional invites you to go deeper into the scriptural principles, inspiring men to reconcile with their past, re-engage in the present by taking full responsibility for their wives and children, and then move forward with a bold and clear resolution for the future.
The Resolution For Women Leathertouch
Author : Priscilla Shirer
With Everything You Have to Do, Have You Taken The Time to Decide Who You Want to Be? From best-selling author and speaker, Priscilla Shirer, in partnership with the creators of The Love Dare, challenges all women in The Resolution for Women to be intentional about embracing and thriving in God's beautiful and eternal calling on their lives. Layered with biblical truth and seasoned with daily encouragement, this book will inspire the woman you see in the mirror to trust God's perfect plan for her life, resolving to become "purposefully feminine, surprisingly satisfied, and faithfully His." Shirer explains how today's women can and should live out their own resolution. It is "a defining banner that hangs over your life, written in the ink of your own choices." A woman's banner should be an accurate reflection of who she desires to be-someone completely Christ-centered who blesses and changes things in her world for the better. Written in partnership with the movie Courageous and Stephen and Alex Kendrick's book, The Resolution for Men, it is designed to inspire a revolution.
Author : Ernest Hemingway
Author : Michael Ende
The Neverending Story is Michael Ende's best-known book, but Momo—published six years earlier—is the all-ages fantasy novel that first won him wide acclaim. After the sweet-talking gray men come to town, life becomes terminally efficient. Can Momo, a young orphan girl blessed with the gift of listening, vanquish the ashen-faced time thieves before joy vanishes forever? With gorgeous new drawings by Marcel Dzama and a new translation from the German by Lucas Zwirner, this all-new 40th anniversary edition celebrates the book's first U.S. publication in over 25 years.
The Last Book In The Universe
Author : Rodman Philbrick
This fast-paced action novel is set in a future where the world has been almost destroyed. Like the award-winning novel Freak the Mighty, this is Philbrick at his very best. It's the story of an epileptic teenager nicknamed Spaz, who begins the heroic fight to bring human intelligence back to the planet. In a world where most people are plugged into brain-drain entertainment systems, Spaz is the rare human being who can see life as it really is. When he meets an old man called Ryter, he begins to learn about Earth and its past. With Ryter as his companion, Spaz sets off an unlikely quest to save his dying sister -- and in the process, perhaps the world.

"The book moves briskly from one crisp scene to the next, and ultimately casts a spell as captivating as Rules of Civility, a book that inhales you into its seductively Gatsby-esque universe." —Town & Country From the New York Times bestselling author of Rules of Civility—a transporting novel about a man who is ordered to spend the rest of his life inside a luxury hotel With his breakout debut novel, Rules of Civility, Amor Towles established himself as a master of absorbing, sophisticated fiction, bringing late 1930s Manhattan to life with splendid atmosphere and a flawless command of style. Readers and critics were enchanted; as NPR commented, "Towles writes with grace and verve about the mores and manners of a society on the cusp of radical change." A Gentleman in Moscow immerses us in another elegantly drawn era with the story of Count Alexander Rostov. When, in 1922, he is deemed an...
The Other Half Of Gender
Author : Ian Bannon
Genre : Social Science
This book is an attempt to bring the gender and development debate full circle-from a much-needed focus on empowering women to a more comprehensive gender framework that considers gender as a system that affects both women and men. The chapters in this book explore definitions of masculinity and male identities in a variety of social contexts, drawing from experiences in Latin America, the Caribbean and sub-Saharan Africa. It draws on a slowly emerging realization that attaining the vision of gender equality will be difficult, if not impossible, without changing the ways in which masculinities are defined and acted upon. Although changing male gender norms will be a difficult and slow process, we must begin by understanding how versions of masculinities are defined and acted upon.
Author : Cormac McCarthy
NATIONAL BESTSELLER WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE The searing, post-apocalyptic novel about a father and son's fight to survive. A father and his son walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray. The sky is dark. Their destination is the coast, although they don't know what, if anything, awaits them there. They have nothing; just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearing, a cart of scavenged food—and each other. The Road is the profoundly moving story of a journey. It boldly imagines a future in which no hope remains, but in which the father and his son, "each the other's world entire," are sustained by love. Awesome in the totality of its vision, it is an unflinching meditation on the worst and the best that we are capable of: ultimate destructiveness, desperate tenacity, and the tenderness that keeps two people alive in the face of total devastation.

Whoa! This self-confessed 'skinner' has spent six digits on Mobile Legends Skins!
By Angeline Rodriguez
• July 8, 2019
Do you play Mobile Legends: Bang Bang? If so, how addicted are you to the game? Have you ever spent money on it? If so, how much?
We spoke to a Mobile Legends player, who has spent six digits on the game so far! Jay is an expat, who has been working in the Philippines for six years now. He shares that he learned about ML from his ex and since he used to play DotA and HON, falling in love with the game really wasn't hard.
To date, his favorite hero is Estes. "I like to support my team more than kill enemies," he explains. "I also get to heal myself without going back to the base too often." He adds, "Estes is a good healer and I think he is the god of healer in ML."
As of the moment, Jay has 160 skins, the most expensive ones being Gord Conqueror, which cost around Php12,000; and the skin set collaboration of King of Fighters (Athena, Iori Yagami, and Leona) at around the same price.
Jay claims that these skins were really worth the price, though, especially the skin set of King of Fighters. "For a 90s kid who loved the legendary game, I had to have them all," he exclaims. "Plus, you cannot buy these skins anymore."
For hardcore Mobile Legends players, Jay recommends buying at least one skin for your favorite hero. If the skin is too expensive, Jay suggests slowly saving some money for it or waiting for a discount even tin order to get it at a lower price.
Jay admits that he actually isn't a good player, though. He doesn't even like playing in Rank mode because of how stressful it is with people calling him a skinner all the time. In fact, this is the reason why he keeps buying skins. "I may not be a good player, but at least I look the coolest in the match," he says.
For his Dream Skin, Jay still hopes to get the Epic skin of Estes. He also wishes for Mobile Legends to collaborate with famous cartoons, like Naruto, Fairytail, or even Marvel heroes in the future.

The Alfa Romeo Racing C41 is a Formula One car constructed by Alfa Romeo Racing to compete in the 2021 Formula 1 World Championship. The car was driven by Kimi Räikkönen and Antonio Giovinazzi, who returned for their third year with the team. Robert Kubica drove for the team at the Dutch and Italian Grands Prix replacing Räikkönen who withdrew from the events after testing positive for COVID-19. The chassis was designed by Jan Monchaux, Luca Furbatto, Lucia Conconi, Alessandro Cinelli and Nicolas Hennel with the car being powered by a customer Ferrari powertrain.

Development
The car is an evolution of its predecessor, the C39. Development of the C40, Alfa's next-generation car, had already begun before the new regulations were pushed to 2022; the designation was retained, with the 2021 car adopting the C41 designation.

2020 cars were carried over into the 2021 season as a cost-savings measure due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. To allow development, the FIA introduced a token system allowing teams to develop only certain areas of their cars. Alfa Romeo spent their tokens on improving the nose of the car, adopting a slimmer design to redirect air over the bargeboards.

Assessment and characteristics
Journalists and technical analysts Mark Hughes and Giorgio Piola described the C41 as the most-improved car over its 2020 equivalent, calling it "both more powerful and more aerodynamically competitive than its C39 predecessor" due to a combination of power unit development by Ferrari and Alfa Romeo's own improvements.

What do I need accomplished?
To make the right choice, as the client, you need to really know what you need before you can know who you are looking for. If your main need is pure design, meaning getting someone to pick out colors, visuals, and fonts, a designer may be the best route. This is not to short change designers skill sets at all, but designers traditionally are designers because they love to labor over the details of design more than execute a marketing strategy. And in the end if you have a good designer there will be a lot of love put into your project. If your designer has a deep understanding of your industry they can provide a very focused effort, but this can also be a bit limiting if you have an array of products or services.
If you are looking to do some higher level problem solving with a focus on strategy, then an agency is the best solution. Agencies exist to solve marketing problems. Your agency will most likely employ designers, writers, strategists, etc… to work with you. An agency can be the think tank bringing you the higher level strategy while combining ideas and design. An agency has multiple team members working on your account, which means more brains on the job.
How involved do I want to be in the process?
A typical design project is you asking for a thing to be accomplished. Create a sale sheet. Produce an ad. Design some web banners. Designers literally make a living doing these types of things. And they typically do them well. The up-side is your project should look fantastic when you are done. The down-side is you might get in the weeds with the details. If you have a little more time and enjoy being close to a project, then a designer might be a better fit.
If your style is more hands-off, then an agency might be a better way to go. Agencies like to get assignments and deadlines, go off and work, and bring back solutions. When you hire an agency, you are hiring people to make some decisions for you. You get to look at the bigger picture and make sure the work is up to snuff.
How and how much do I want to pay?
Hiring a designer usually means one thing: hourly. If you hire a freelance designer it's on an hourly rate. If it's full time, then you are buying 40ish hours a week. Either way, it's usually not a performance model. However, freelance designer hourly rates are usually less than agency hourly rates.
If you're hiring an agency, you may have options. Almost all agencies will work on an hourly model or a monthly fee. And some agencies will work on some kind of performance model. It might be a hybrid fee/bonus, or very rarely a full commission basis. A commission model guaranties your agencies goals and your goals are tightly aligned.
If you want to be highly involved in the details – hire a designer. More delegation of responsibility – hire an agency.
If you have more time than money – look for a designer. Less time and more money – look for an agency.
If you just need great design – get a designer. If you need design and strategy – get an agency.

Polar bears are susceptible to climate warming because of their dependence on sea ice, which is declining rapidly. We present the first evidence for a genetically distinct and functionally isolated group of polar bears in Southeast Greenland. These bears occupy sea-ice conditions resembling those projected for the High Arctic in the late 21st century, with an annual ice-free period that is >100 days longer than the estimated fasting threshold for the species. Whereas polar bears in most of the Arctic depend on annual sea ice to catch seals, Southeast Greenland bears have a year-round hunting platform in the form of freshwater glacial mélange. This suggests that marine-terminating glaciers, although of limited availability, may serve as previously unrecognized climate refugia. Conservation of Southeast Greenland polar bears, which meet criteria for recognition as the world's 20th polar bear subpopulation, is necessary to preserve the genetic diversity and evolutionary potential of the species.

Q: filter input string to array python I am trying to make an array out of the following string:
'25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n'
Where only the numbers need to be added.
I have tried the following:
MyString.decode().strip('\r\n')

But then i just removed the '\r\n'
Question: Is there a way to filter on only the numbers and put it in an array?
EDIT:
array = [int(x) for x in data.split('\r\n')]

this seems to work, only not in my case.
I am working with bluetooth and so I am trying to read the outputstream.
here is my code:
    def bluetooth_connect(self):
    bd_addr = "98:D3:31:FB:14:C8"   # MAC-address of our bluetooth-module
    port = 1
    sock = bluetooth.BluetoothSocket(bluetooth.RFCOMM)
    sock.connect((bd_addr, port))

    data = ""
    while 1:
        try:
            data += sock.recv(1024)
            data_end = data.find('\n')
            array = []

            if data_end != -1:
                self.move_all_servos(data)
                data = data[data_end + 1:]
                array = [int(x) for x in data.split('\r\n')]

                for i in range(0, leng(array)):
                     print(i)

        except KeyboardInterrupt:
            break
    sock.close()

first i get the correct array, but after a while it crashes with this error:
array = [int(x) for x in data.split('\r\n')]
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ''

A: Use split.
s = '25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n35\r\n5\r\n15\r\n25\r\n'
s.split('\r\n')

A: The problem with [int(x) for x in data.split('\r\n')] is that the result will contain an empty string '' at the end, after the final \r\n. You could use a filter condition to remove it...
>>> [int(x) for x in data.split('\r\n') if x]
[25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25]

... or just use data.split() without parameter:
>>> [int(x) for x in data.split()]
[25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25, 35, 5, 15, 25]

From the documentation (emphasis mine):

S.split(sep=None, maxsplit=-1) -> list of strings

Return a list of the words in S, using sep as the
  delimiter string.  If maxsplit is given, at most maxsplit
  splits are done. If sep is not specified or is None, any
  whitespace string is a separator and empty strings are
  removed from the result.
