Hi all,
I'm getting ready to purchase my first 1911. I have been shooting M&Ps for a while but really want the trigger of a 1911! I am looking at the Eclipse Target II and am looking for opinions on the 4" barrel vs. the 5". Is there much difference in accuracy? I assume the longer sight picture would be an advantage but how much? My M&P .40 has a 4 1/4" and my .45 has a 4 1/2". Can't tell much of a difference.......

I'm sure one of the more knowledgeable member will chime in here but From what Ive noticed between my 3" and 5" is muzzle flip. The 3" is much more drastic than the 5". Plus the 5" as you mentioned has a slightly larger sight radius. I would say it really depends on what yer getting it for, ccw, home defense, target shooting ect.. If you re really only getting it to have one and target shoot on occasion than I would prob go for the 5". If you're getting it for ccw then I would prob go for the 4" if not a 3" . But then again its always better to have that extra two inches if you run out of ammo and have to bludgeon someone with it
I much prefer the shorter sight radius of the Compact. It allows for quicker target acquisition and easier pointability.
When I was shooting damn near every weekend, I was able to use my Compact to drop a magazine into a 8 or 10 inch steel at 50 yards in about 10 seconds. I'm not sure that the extra inch of barrel would have helped anything.
The bull barrel adds weight to the front end of the pistol, negating some of the muzzle flip associated with short barreled 1911s. Even in light of that, I added a set of Hogue Combats early on in my love affair. Recoil and muzzle flip isn't even an issue.
50 yard target:
You can see the 3 distinct groupings from the 3 points in my breathing that I held my breath to take the shot.
"'Did you ever wonder why we had to run for shelter when the promise of a brave new world unfurled beneath a clear blue sky? "
Roger WatersVote freedom, join the Libertarian Party.
I would have to say that accuracy for handguns does not totally come from the length of the barrel, but more from the shooter and the quality of the gun. Every gun shoots differently and only practice and proper training would be able to improve accuracy.
The difference between the 4" and 5" would not be too different in accuracy. I would focus more on what the application for the gun will be. protection = 3", smaller for concealment. Target = 5", longer for "accuracy". If your going to use if for target and protection then go 4".
Also note that the short barrel 1911s are usually more particular than full-size guns. They also tend to wear out springs much faster as well, the Kimber compact I had was rated for 500-700 rounds per spring change...
(Yup, it's been a long time since my last visit)
Now, I'm almost exclusively 4" or 4.25" barrels on my .45's. I notice NO loss of any accuracy of the weapon going from the 5" to the 4". Muzzle flip differences between the two is a non factor. I find the 5" to be much less comfortable in daily carry, so I got rid of them. I'm sure others will have differing opinions, but for me the 4-4.25 barrel range is wonderful all around.
Good luck!

Maybe I'm weird, but I don't notice much of a difference at all on anything but close double taps, and those are point shots anyway. As long as I see the 3 dots in a row over target, I know it's go time. Can't say as I'm any quicker or slower between 3" or 5" barrels.....
Would there be much loss of velocity or energy when choosing a shorter barrel?

Publisher's Description
This book is for women—for all women who want to explore beneath the superficial and get to know God, and themselves, better. While striving to find meaning amid the mundane and ordinary, many women find themselves swallowed up by culture's expectations, trying to escape the labels that trap and define them. But Aimee Byrd is determined to reclaim terms like housewife, which have divided many women, to unite them instead in their common calling.
What is this calling, and how can women rise above what the world offers? By taking back another term—theologian—and knowing God intimately. Aimee will help you evaluate your Christian life and see your world form a different perspective.
About the AuthorAimee Byrd is just an ordinary mom of three living in Martinsburg, West Virginia. Aside from that amazing gig, Aimee has made a fool of herself in martial arts training, survived college, dabbled in ceramics, owned a coffee shop, braved leading the youth group with her husband, become a Bible study teacher and blogger, and done a little speaking on the side. Since her children's schedules have majorly cut into her social life, she has resorted to writing.

The cast of Devil Survivor 2. Note that tropes applying to the anime are mixed with the game tropes:
open/close all folders
Party Members
The Entire Team
The Protagonist (AKA Hiro Kageyama/Hibiki Kuze)
Voiced by: Hiroshi Kamiya (anime) (Japanese), Patrick Poole (anime) (English)An Ordinary Highschool Student living in Tokyo and studying for his college entrance exams. After signing up for the "death clip" website Nicaea he and his friends are granted access to the power of the Demon Summoning App and are enlisted by the secret government organization JP's in order to use their new powers to summon demons in order to fight back against the otherworldly Septentriones. While he is mute and his reactions are chosen by the player, he is noted to have strong leadership skills.
Tropes displayed by the protagonist in Devil Survivor 2:
Daichi Shijima
Voiced by: Nobuhiko Okamoto (Japanese), Greg Ayres (English)A friend of The Protagonist and the one who introduces him to Nicaea. Being on the cusp of graduation, he tends to worry about growing up and the responsibilities that come with it. He is generally cheerful and easygoing, which can lead to him landing himself in trouble. When under pressure, he gets nervous easily.
Io Nitta
Voiced by: Aya Uchida (Japanese), Jessica Boone (English)Another student at The Protagonist's and Daichi's school whose intelligence and looks have earned her (according to Daichi) the attention of many of her male classmates. Unlike most Shin Megami Tensei games, she is not friends with the Protagonist and his friend, Daichi, before the game starts, and they have just met each other over the course of the game. Despite her reputation, she isn't very assertive and instead tends to go along with what others say.
Yamato Hotsuin
Voiced by: Junichi Suwabe (teenager), Megumi Ogata (child) (Japanese), John Gremillion (English)The very young leader of the Japan Meteorological Agency - Geomagnetism Research Department, or JP's for short, a secret organization that, in his words, has protected Japan from the supernatural for ages. As a member of the Hotsuin family he has access to the Dragon Stream, a stream of chi that courses throughout Japan. His upbringing has left him with little in the way of empathy or any social skills outside of leadership and administration.
Makoto Sako
Voiced by: Miyuki Sawashiro (Japanese), Amy Morris (English)A member of JP's Tokyo branch. She takes her duties very seriously and initially comes off to the Protagonist and his friends as shady and a little frightening. Once one gets past her professional demeanor she is discovered to have a softer and highly loyal, if still somewhat stern, side.
Otome Yanagiya
Voiced by: Yuka Iguchi (Japanese), Molly Searcy (English)An expert doctor who works for JP's Osaka branch. She's a very talented doctor ready to do her job in the chaos, and her high spirits keep her always happy. Apart from being a doctor, she has an adopted daughter named Koharu whom she looks out for all the time, even though the added stress of her two jobs fall upon her shoulders.
Fumi Kanno
Voiced by: Rikako Yamaguchi (Japanese), Shelley Calene-Black (English)JP's technical expert. She has an all-consuming interest in computers, electronics, and experiments, caring little for anything else, giving her a detached and eccentric air. Even her thinking and reasoning processes are coldly neutral and analytic.
Airi Ban
Voiced by: Kana Asumi (Japanese), Cynthia Martinez (English)A first-year Nagoya High School student who joined JP's Nagoya branch to fight demons. She's an extremely Fiery Redhead, but deep down, she cares for others even though they annoy her a lot indirectly. She hides a dream that she let go due to financial issues with her family.
Jungo Torii
Voiced by: Daisuke Namikawa (Japanese), Ty Mahany (English)A young chef living in Nagoya. Simple-minded in how he views the world, he is intensely loyal towards those he considers to be his friends. It's strongly advised that you do not hurt one of them or else you'll probably die with a punch. Otherwise, he's always ready to give chawanmushi.
Keita Wakui
Voiced by: Fuko Saito (Japanese), Connor Leach (English)A high school boxer from the city of Osaka. He prefers to work alone and is rather dismissive of other people. Despite his cold rejection of others he is all-too eager to be a demon tamer, and often runs into situations without thinking.
Hinako Kujou
Voiced by: Ami Koshimizu (Japanese), Joanne Bonasso (English)A young woman from Osaka who is studying various types of dancing styles from all over the world. She has a very upfront personality and will always come to the aid of those who are suffering or in danger, regardless of the danger posed to herself.
Yuzuru "Joe" Akie
Voiced by: Mitsuaki Madono (Japanese), Mark X. Laskowski (English)A salaryman that the Protagonist and his friends run into shortly after witnessing Tokyo's devastation. Fond of teasing and corny wordplay, his personality is very laid back and good-natured. However, his cheery facade conceals secrets that he avoids talking about at all costs.
Ronaldo Kuriki
Voiced by: Rikiya Koyama (Japanese), Jason Douglas (English)A private detective who fights in the pursuit of justice. He views Yamato and JP's as evil and in the wake of Japan's devestation rallies activists against them in the city of Nagoya. His strong sense of justice often blinds him of what's more important, often driving him to commit immoral acts.
The Anguished OneSee Others
Female Tico voiced by: Kikuko Inoue (Japanese), Luci Christian (English)
Male Tico voiced by: Shuuta Morishima (Japanese), John Swasey (English)Tico is the avatar that appears in the popular site Nicaea every time the party needs help fighting demons. They both share the same name, but differ in gender and personalities. It's unknown how their site can summon demons or even show the deaths of any individual.
The Anguished OneThe creator of Nicaea. See "Others".
The Septentriones
Septentriones (The Big Dipper)A group of seven aliens (actually eight) that attack Japan. They collectively form the Big Dipper. Each one of them appears on each day for reasons unknown. They all target Japan because of the towers that set up invisible barriers that keep Polaris' Void from swallowing the country.
PolarisA Godlike being who rules multiple universes and is the Administrator of the Universe, through the use of the Akashic Records. It desires to destroy the world and annihilate mankind because they no longer fit the order it envisions.
The Anguished One/Al Saiduq/Alcor
Voiced by: Takahiro Sakurai (Japanese), Illich Guardiola (English)A mysterious young man who appears before the Protagonist, calling him the "Shining One" and tells him that one day he must make a momentous decision.He is the administrator of Nicaea and the one behind the spread of the Demon Summoning App. The mystery of his motives are an important thread of the plot from the 4th day on.His true identity is of the eighth Septentrione Alcor, the Sword of Polaris. Unlike the other invaders he has the ability to empathize with others, and has come to like humans and wants to change the world so that they will be free from control. If one sides with him, he goes by the alias of Al Saiduq. If one does not, he becomes the final test before facing Polaris.
"Dera-Deka"An older, afro'd man in a concealing hat and longcoat with a connection to several characters which are his daughter Airi and pupil Ronaldo. If only his activity made a difference.
The Three Servants of the Anguished OneNamed Botis, Bifrons, and Black Frost, they are the servants of the Anguished One. Both Botis and Bifrons appears as bosses during the story and if they should die in those battles then Black Frost will take their place in the battle on the last day.

Apple Off-Key on iTunes
For its part, Apple spokeswoman Natalie Kerris says "the conclusion that iTunes sales are slowing is simply incorrect."
Apple does not provide any financial details related to its online music store, but says 1.5 billion songs have been sold in the store.
Kerris added that iTunes sales are 6% of all music sold in the U.S., making it the fourth largest music retailer.
Forrester also found that iTunes shoppers tend to make "small 'impulse' buys," with the median transaction hitting $2.97. One-third of total transactions hit $1.08 or less, and 75% of purchases cost $9.99 or less."Apple's iTunes proves that 99-cents micropayments for digital music can lead to substantial revenue; buyers spent an average of $35 at iTunes over the past year," Bernoff wrote. "With half of all transactions costing $3 or less, though, transaction fees threaten to make iTunes unprofitable." Using data from Apple press releases and public statements by Steve Jobs, Forrester analyzed total global sales and found that "Apple has been steadily selling just 20 iTunes tracks for each iPod sold, suggesting that even at 99 cents, most customers still aren't sold on the value of digital music." In an interview, Bernoff said that even though song sales are down, it's the number of songs purchased per iPod that should have the music industry, not Apple, concerned.

Many people are interested in an organization's approach to laboratory environmental health and safety (EHS) management including laboratory personnel; customers, clients, and students (if applicable); suppliers; the community; shareholders; contractors; insurers; and regulatory agencies. More and more organizations attach the same importance to high standards in EHS management as they do to other key aspects of their activities. High standards demand a structured approach to the identification of hazards and the evaluation and control of work-related risks.
A comprehensive legal framework already exists for laboratory EHS management. This framework requires organizations to manage their activities in order to anticipate and prevent circumstances that might result in occupational injury, ill health, or adverse environmental impact. This chapter seeks to improve the EHS performance of organizations by providing guidance on EHS to integrate EHS management with other aspects of the organization.
Many features of effective EHS management are identical to management practices advocated by proponents of quality assurance and business excellence. The guidelines presented here are based on general principles of good management and are designed to integrate EHS management within an overall management system.1 By establishing an EHS management system, EHS risks are controlled in a systematic proactive manner.
Within many organizations, some elements of EHS management are already in place, such as policy and risk assessment records, but other aspects need to be developed. It is important that all the elements described here are incorporated into the EHS management system. The manner and extent to which individual elements are applied, however, depend on factors such as the size of the organization, the nature of its activities, the hazards, and the conditions in which it operates. An initial status review should be carried out in all organizations that do not have an established EHS management system. This initial status review will provide information on the scope, adequacy, and implementation of the current management system. Where no formal management system exists, or if the organization is newly established, the initial status review should indicate where the organization stands with respect to managing risks.
Figure 2.1 illustrates the major elements of an EHS management system.
2.A.1 Environmental Health and Safety Policy
Top management should set in place procedures to define, document, and endorse a formal EHS policy for an organization. The policy should clearly outline the roles and expectations for the organization, faculty, EHS personnel, and individual employees or students. It should be developed in communication with laboratory personnel to ensure that all major concerns are adequately addressed.
The EHS policy should state intent to
• prevent or mitigate both human and economic losses arising from accidents, adverse occupational exposures, and environmental events;
• build EHS considerations into all phases of the operations, including laboratory discovery and development environments;
• achieve and maintain compliance with laws and regulations; and
• continually improve EHS performance.
The EHS policy and policy statement should be reviewed, revalidated, and where necessary, revised by top management as often as necessary. It should be communicated and made readily accessible to all employees and made available to relevant interested parties, as appropriate.
2.A.2 Management Commitment
Management commitment to EHS performance is widely recognized as one of the elements most critical to EHS program success and to the development of a strong culture of safety within an organization. Therefore, the management system document establishes management commitment with a formal statement of intent, which defines examples of how performance goals are supported. Examples of how this commitment is supported include the following:
• Establish methods to use energy more efficiently, reduce waste, and prevent accidents.
• Comply with laws, regulations, and organizational requirements applicable to their operations.
• Improve EHS performance continually.
• Conduct periodic assessments to verify and validate EHS performance.
2.A.3 Planning
Planning is an integral part of all elements of the management system and to be effective involves the design and development of suitable processes and
1A general definition of a management system is "a series of elements for establishing policy, objectives, and processes for implementation, review, and continual improvement."

The Origins of 5 Modern Pieces of Technology
Subscribe to our newsletter
As time moves forward our technology evolves. Cellular phones become smart phones become super phones. Screwdrivers become those screwdrivers with the different heads built in. And then there are some much more impressive technological innovations that can truly awe us with how far we have come.
The Turtle
Despite being named after a creature we consider to be slow and dim witted, The Turtle is actually the first military submarine in recorded history. If you're wondering why it's called The Turtle, just look at the damn thing:
Measuring in at ten feet long, six feet tall and three feet wide, this single person craft isn't going to win anyone over through intimidation. In fact, there was only enough air on board for about thirty minutes. With a top speed of three miles per hour, your target better be pretty close or you need to be Barry Allen.
The craft was powered by hand cranked propellers and submerged by filling a bilge tank at the bottom. Then, when it needed to rise to the surface, hand pumps would empty the bilge tank. In an emergency situation the ship carried two-hundred pounds of lead to be released to increase buoyancy. Six pieces of glass at the top of the craft allowed for natural lighting.
The ship was designed to attack British ships with explosives. However, this never really panned out. The first attempt to do so, taking place in New York Harbor on September 6, 1776, failed when the Turtle was unable to attach the charge to the HMS Eagle. Shortly after an attempt to blow up a frigate in Manhattan was abandoned, the Turtle was sunk and the nightmare was over.
Though it failed to launch a successful attack in its lifetime, the Turtle's (for the time) technologically sophisticated attempted attacks made the British suspicious of damn near anything floating at them that wasn't flying a British Flag.
The Fire Lance
Guns are the crux of modern warfare and boy, are we lucky for that. Before we had firearms you actually had to get close to the person you were about to kill, and who wants that?
The earliest ancestor of the fire arm (and all gun powder weapons) is the fire lance. The name is once again a very accurate description of the device: a bamboo tube was tied to a spear contained your choice of projectile and gunpowder. When fired, the tube released said projectiles along with a good amount of flame. While the spear was used in hand-to-hand combat the missile portion was used as the ultimate trump card.
Though the range of the blast was only a few feet, the fire lance quickly found itself independent of the spear and readily in the hands of peasants. As a cheap and disposable weapon it saw wide-spread use and was popularly stored on city walls for easy defense. Invaders trying to scale these walls were greeted by a fatal explosion. The weapon was also used to defend breached gates.
Curiously, one of the most popular projectiles used in the fire lance was poison darts. Just in case the explosion to the face didn't work, you could kill your opponent slowly.
The Tank
Sometimes shooting someone in the face with fire poison doesn't send a strong enough message. For those times, one must rely on tanks.
One of the earliest tank designs was drawn up by none other than Leonardo da Vinci. When not busy painting suspiciously average looking ladies, da Vinci invented quite a few war machines.
His tank had a rather unique design: its turtle shell dome protected the men inside operating several cannons and covering all angles. The dome was covered with several slanted metal plates to help deflect enemy fire.
As for movement, the machine was to be powered by eight men constantly rotating cranks that controlled the wheels. At one point the idea of horses inside the dome moving the machine was considered but coordinating their movement would prove too challenging.
Designed as a means to intimidate and scatter enemy ranks, da Vinci's tank was never feasible as designed and never saw combat. Historians claim that it was too heavy to move over uneven ground. Flaws in da Vinci's drawings had also rendered the machine useless if it were to be built: the arrangement of gears as da Vinci drew them would have spun the wheels in opposite directions, resulting in some sort of Hannah-Barbera-esque mishap. It's widely believed that da Vinci added this mistake intentionally as a security measure; should the design have ever been stolen the machine would have been a heavily armed paper weight and little else.
Baghdad Battery
Discovered in 1936, the Baghdad Battery currently stands as the oldest discovered battery in the world. The batteries are comprised of small, five inch terracotta pots. The pot held a copper tube in the center holding an iron rod (though held separate with plugs). Vinegar, lemon juice, and grape juice could then be used to generate an electric current.
The origin of the battery remains a mystery, but even more so is how old the known batteries may be. Despite being exposed to extreme weather for a very long period of time, the batteries are in excellent shape. However, currently used methods of dating won't work on the battery's components.
The use of the battery is widely debated. Currently it's thought that the battery could be used as a means of acupuncture, or electroplating. More interesting is the possibility of religious significance and use. If the batteries were linked in a certain way they could generate a field akin to an electric fence. With a primitive knowledge of electrical currents one could easily confuse this with, say, the wrath of an angry god.
Antikythera Mechanism
One of the greatest mysteries of the ancient world is the Antikythera mechanism, one of the oldest recovered mechanical calculators in history.
Estimated to have been built between 100 and 150 B.C., the mechanism itself closely resembles that of a 19th century clock. It has over thirty gears whose teeth are formed through equilateral triangles. A crank (now missing from the device) could be turned to enter a date. That's when the magic happened: the mechanism would calculate the position of the sun, moon, and several other celestial bodies in relation to Earth based on the geocentric model of the universe.
A dial on the front is made of two rings. One is marked with the days of the year while the other is marked with the Greek zodiac. It's been theorized that the dial also had three hands: one to show the date, one to show the position of the moon and another for the sun.
The purpose of the device remains unknown. The obvious conclusion is that it was used for navigation, but some of the information it provides is useless to that end. It's possible it could have been a very high-end calendar (Greeks loved automation and mechanics). If so, thank god that intricacy and elegance has been replaced by a $0.99 app.

Michael Douglas
No one saves face in director Steven Soderbergh's ghoulishly entertaining, opulently produced Behind the Candelabra (Sunday, 9/8c), HBO's grandest, gaudiest and most fascinating movie in quite a long while — probably since last year's Game Change, in which Julianne Moore's uncanny impersonation of Sarah Palin swept the awards the way Michael Douglas is likely to repeat with his equally astonishing transformation into the flamboyant but closeted "Mr. Showmanship" Liberace.
Janet Jackson, Kate Winslet
The holidays are a special time for many, but for some celebrities, there was even more to celebrate this year.
Kate Winslet revealed she had married beau Ned Rocknroll in a super-secret ceremony. Janet Jackson's boyfriend reportedly put a ring on it. Several famous names also announced new or upcoming additions to their family, such as Jessica Simpson's adorable Christmas Day Twitter picture that confirmed her long-rumored second pregnancy. Sadly, however, the holidays also brought the loss of several beloved celebrities, including The Odd Couple's Jack Klugman and...

Denis Leary in Rescue Me by Barbara Nitke/FX
After Wednesdays formless, scattershot finale of Rescue Me, Im with Charles Durning. Almost. Head down, eyes closed, taking a long, long nap. For me, this respite will last until next summer, when Rescue Me returns for its fifth and what we have to hope will be a more satisfying season. For Durning, who played Tommys dad, theres no waking up. Will he in retrospect be seen as the lucky one?In a poignant though not entirely unpredictable moment, made more notable for a quiet tenderness one rarely sees on this raw and raucous show, Tommys dad slipped away into a final rest as he sat beside his son at a minor-league baseball game. He brushes something off his clothes and then hes gone. Just like that. Sure beats the violent end that has come to most people Tommy has lost during the run of this series. And yet: sad. Denis Leary played the reaction beautifully. Poor Tommy.I will try to resist using the most obvious baseball-as-life-metaphor analogy here...

Tatum O'Neal, Rescue Me

Tatum O'Neal: What you see is a real broad, a Queens woman who doesn't think before she speaks and is extreme in everything — extreme in her drinking, extreme in her men, extreme in her language, extreme in her opinions. Extreme all the way.

Sarah Drew and Chris Pratt, Everwood
Nestled between the countless procedural dramas and reality shows that tend to dominate the prime-time lineup, the WB drama Everwood (Mondays at 9 pm/ET) has managed to keep viewers coming back for a weekly dose of romance and comedy. But will that loyalty be enough to secure the in-limbo fan favorite a spot on the CW lineup (to be revealed this week)? If executive producer Rina Mimoun has her way, fans will follow the Colorado kids to college next fall. Until then, the 4-year-old series is set to wrap its current run on June 5, but not before a major character says goodbye to Everwood — permanently. TVGuide.com invited Mimoun to recap the possibilities for next week's "big death," discuss upcoming guest stars, and offer, for whatever it's worth at this late date, a final plea to save the show.

"Each voice of each generation Become loudly spoken through death bringing our wisdom to us through channelled thoughts mortal beings framed through death can we not listen in life listen to the preachers the poets our answers possibly rekindled appreciation blessings and hope"
"Can't look back you can only look forwards The past cannot ever be undone If we do our best for a better future Make the world a better place for everyone We are all human, sometimes falling off the path Experience lies in all we say and do Treat others how you would treat yourself Then karma shall look after you"
"Take my trinket gem of wisdom I hand this to you Take this on your journey Your lifetime through It is my pearl of wisdom My epithy of words humbled It has carved me as a man Through worlds that have crumbled You have many gems to be given They can never be taken away You will then have gems to give To teach the souls of earth today"
"its ok to walk freely in the rain and chuckle to yourself, it is the bizzare freaks thats inchant us they are like knots of wood or grains of sand they speak to us solemnley with no words no want for praise nor understanding just to walk freely enjoying life it is our fate that comes us it is our interpretation that exceed us if we only all learnt its ok to chuckle to yourself....sometimes"
"a bad day always feels like a bad day thus the cosmic pulling us in the right direction karma some indeed may say its the great earth mothers affection if we look for the answer it is always there we must learn to understand even if it seems very unclear it is our path as has been planned there's always spirits watching if you ever feeling lost or need a clue so call on all your spirit guides and they'll look after you"
"He was taken away, In light of day He soul slipped into a silent trip countless people lined the streets breathing echoed heartbeats Mourners came from near and far remorquious stance to farewell a star though he was gone he watched on to his suprise his hole in the skies Let him watch over, from heavens above peacefully, eternally, watch over his love"
"The future shall always become the past It is our memories that make this last As we wait for our future, life passes by Untold events are left to lie Our life tests some are good some are bad There are times we are happy, times we are sad When It becomes our time to die It is experience that gives us wings to fly"

Today Facebook announced that it now supports always-on SSL as a user-configurable option. This announcement comes in the wake of recent attention to the possibility of using rogue hotspots to harvest sensitive information from e-mail or social media sites. The issue is that many of these sites use SSL to encrypt the login page, inhibiting the potential theft of logins and therefore accounts, but they fail to offer encyption for the subsequent content that you see when you're inside the site. That's problematic because a man-in-the-middle (MITM) can sit and harvest this information, information that then becomes the basis for a second tier of social engineering attacks. One clear way to become a man-in-the-middle is by operating a rogue hotspot and preying on those who use it to connect to their mail or social accounts. This practice garnered a lot of attention last year with the release of Firesheep, a Firefox plug-in that makes it easy to do exactly that. But even before the release of Firesheep, Google already had taken the step of encrypting the entire Gmail experience under SSL. Google has gone on to unambiguously state that by today's standards SSL is not computationally expensive any more. One standards development that can aid sites in offering full SSL protection is called Strict Transport Security, or STS. Strict Transport Security is a policy that can be applied to a web site. That policy states that all elements of that site must be secured with SSL or considered in violation. Supporting browsers can then alert users of a problem with the site or even prevent the user from continuing. PayPal, which has been a leader in many best practices in security for consumer-facing sites, already supports Strict Transport Security.
Facebook goes deep on SSL, a good practice for all social media sites

Guitarist looks well like Mikael Akerfeldt haha
Album Rating: 4.0Agreed that the "highlight" moments are missing but i think this album works exceptionally well as a whole, without putting too much emphasis on any individual track.

Yeah, basically agreed with Pete. More consistent, fewer standouts.
Album Rating: 3.7Pretty great stuff here.

Album Rating: 3.5There are some really good parts to this but it is just too darn short plus some of the songs end in a weird way like 1777 has this awesome solo drum beat that just abruptly stops.
Album Rating: 3.5Yeah, this rules. Russian circles will never be in my top echelon of bands, but I also am pretty sure they will never disappoint me either.
It's alright.
Album Rating: 4.0Still need to hear this

A Taste of Charleston
Whip up a tempting seafood dish from Hank's Seafood Restaurant, a notable South Carolina staple.
Try this very simple preparation of traditional shrimp scampi that's enhanced with crab. Don't feel limited to adding crab specifically; bay scallops and lobster also work well.
- Recipe: Shrimp-and-Crab Finger Scampi
This is a surprising combination for fried oysters. The crispness of the hot oysters and the acidity from the okra and the vinaigrette, along with the creamy, pungent cheese and sweet corn, makes for a nice contrast in flavors.
- Recipe: Fried Oysters
- Recipe: Green Tomato, Sweet Corn, and Blue Cheese Vinaigrette
- Recipe: Quick Pickled Okra
Served with the same Champagne-Citrus Beurre Blanc as the Roasted Grouper and stuffed with savory ingredients like sweet corn, these crab cakes pack quite a flavorful punch.
Hank's twist on the spicy, cold soup creates a much more colorful meal than your typical recipe. Feel free to omit the okra if you wish.
- Recipe: Lowcountry Gazpacho
- Recipe: Seasoned Shrimp
- Recipe: Quick Pickled Okra
Charleston locals know where to get a great fish dinner—and now you do, too, with recipes from Cool Inside: Hank's Seafood Restaurant cookbook by chef Frank McMahon and Melissa Bigner. The book is available through Wyrick & Company, as well in-stores at Barnes & Noble.

Oct. 10 (Bloomberg) -- French grasslands partially recovered from a dry spring with "good" growth in the north, and pasture production for the country is approaching normal levels, the Agriculture Ministry said.
For half the country, growth during the summer months and into September means forage levels are getting close to normal, while in 10 percent of France, output is less than 50 percent of normal pasture production, the ministry said in a report on its website today.

This game looks very good for a DS game. I like that it's a side scroller instead of a 3D game. You play primarily with the D-pad and face buttons, only using the touchscreen for a resusitation minigame. After Spidey takes one too many hits, you'll see him laid out on the bottom screen, with red power orbs floating around him. You then use the stylus to swipe these orbs toward him before time runs out.

Come discover an area that has gone unnoticed for years. This will not be a vacation spent amongst a sea of tourists. Ka Liki O Ka Lani is located in the little village of Ewa Beach, which is located on Oahu's southwest shore. It is approximately 17 miles from the airport and 22 miles from Waikiki. Here you will experience old-style Hawaii where sunshine is plentiful.
You will love this quaint plantation-style home. It is located directly across the street from a beautiful stretch of white-sand beach where you can play in the gentle surf, take romantic strolls along the beach and enjoy the breathtaking beauty of our magnificent Hawaiian sunrises and sunsets.
Try your hand at shoreline fishing or just sit back, relax and watch the sea turtles feeding close to shore. A real treat is to catch sight of the local fisherman spearing fish in the reef. From the beach you can enjoy the view of Diamond Head during the day and the lights of Waikiki at night.
Ka Liki O Ka Lani has beautiful hardwood floors and is adorned in Hawaiian-style furnishings. French doors lead onto a wooden porch shaded by a large Plumeria tree. The porch is perfect for dining or sipping tea, coffee, or your favorite iced drink. Please help yourself to the limes we have growing in the yard. It also has a covered carport and a hot/cold, outside shower.
Ka Liki O Ka Lani offers the type of vacation setting we look for when we travel. Amenities include 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, Air Conditioning; DSL High Speed Internet Connection; TV/VCR; Washer/Dryer; Fully-equipped Kitchen with a Stove, Dishwasher, Refrigerator with Ice Maker, Coffee Pot, Microwave, Toaster, Blender, Dinnerware, Cookware; Starter Paper Products; Dishwashing Detergent; Laundry Detergent and Bath Soap; Gas BBQ Grill; Outside Hot/Cold Shower; Snorkel Fins & Masks; Beach Towels; Boogie Boards; Beach Chairs; Beach Mats; Ice Chest; Iron and Ironing Board; Games, including Dominoes, Cards, and Board Games.
If swimming, boogie boarding, surfing and sunbathing are not enough to keep you busy, nearby are six golf courses, Waikele Outlet Shopping Center (which includes name-brand stores Saks Fifth Avenue, Mikasa, and Ann Klein, to name a few), an awesome water park, and a 12-plex movie theater. You also can't miss visiting Pearl Harbor, the Bishop Museum, the Iolani Palace, and attending a luau. With all of these activities available, you will leave wishing you had more time here.
Keywords: House
We loved Ka Liki O Ka Lani. It was the perfect size for our family of 6 and had everything we needed or even what we thought we might need. We made great use of the beach towels (and since you had thought of everything - the bag to carry the beach towels in) beach mats, the snorkeling equipment and sand toys. My youngest daughter adored the big tub in the shared bathroom; she thought of it as her own personal swimming pool.
The outdoor shower was ideal for cleaning off after the beach. We cooked many of our meals at the house, and the kitchen had every convenience of home from the microwave to the dishwasher. The extra blankets in the linen closet allowed everyone to sleep comfortably, especially two of our daughters who had very different ideas about whether or not the air-conditioning needed to be on or off at bedtime.
The pineapple, grapes, coffee and chocolates were a wonderful welcome after a very long day of traveling. Our two teenagers were thrilled that the home had wifi. Thank you for everything!

Helps, not sure if controls are electronic, has manual dials. Got last minute call at 8 this evening, Owner is from Oregon, has renters in house. Stopped by for a look, was 2 minutes away. Back wall is froze solid, food is spoiled. Fans are running. Turned unit off & evaporator fan continues to run until I push door switch in then it shuts off. Back on when I release.
Will defrost with steamer in morning & check heater. Did not see in manual how to initiate defrost cycle. Any more insight to diagnose defrost cycle, GE's are a little difficult for me cause have not had the experience with them.
Forgot to check thermistors to see if old style. Have not received my order from Durham for his fancy dancy therm ice test container. Bet they would work on the defrost limit also.

Unit wasn't completely defrosted after leaving unplugged & open overnight. Finished with steamer. Checked defrost heater direct. It was open & black. My parts supply was across street so I picked one up & a thermistor for the evaporator. Changed both out & restarted unit. Started frosting the evaporator almost immediately. Took a chance that the repair was complete I was running behind On a scheduled call. If I have to return it is across the street from supply store which I visit often, no big deal.
Tonight I will study the manuals I downloaded. Love my job.

The Benefits of Eating Pizza
So many of us love pizz,a but we often feel guilty after eating a few slices. Is it really all that bad for you? There has been research done by the food chemists at the University of Maryland, they believed that they could change Italian pie so that it could be even healthier and thought that it may also be responsible for fighting heart disease. They believed that by changing the dough that is used to whole wheat dough instead of white dough, they could boost the amount of antioxidants in it. Antioxidants decrease the damage of cells that have been linked to heart disease and cancer.
What is bad for us as far as pizza is the stuff we like to load on top of it. Now the tomato sauce is not bad for you, but the cheese and the toppings can be. Cheese is very high in saturated fat. Pepperoni and sausage are grease pits just waiting to clog your arteries. So how do you get around that so it benefits your health? Well that is simple; by using reduced fat cheese and instead of the pepperoni and sausage, use spinach and low-fat turkey sausage or turkey bacon, you know have yourself a nice healthy Italian pie.
Now many of us would love to see it become a diet food. Another benefit of eating Italian pie is you can actually burn off the extra calories. The way to lose weight is to burn off more calories that you intake on a daily basis. So you can certain eat a slice or two of pizza, but then you will need to most likely step on the treadmill or go for a walk. A typical slice is approximately 300 calories, which really isn't that bad and a whole pie has 2,500 calories. But who can really eat a whole one at once?
Even if you are on a diet, you can actually benefit from eating it. Well, if you were to restrict food consumption for a length of time, this can affect your metabolism, which will need to work harder to save energy. How does this all affect your Italian pie intake? It is simple. If you cheat and eat it at least once a week, your metabolism will stay on track and you can still lose weight. I'll bet you didn't know that eating pizza could actually help with weight loss!
Of course, exercising is the most important part of weight loss. You cannot just diet and not exercise. If you have a pizza craving and eat two slices of it every day, you would have to run an hour each day to burn off those two slices. Is it worth it? Well that depends on how much you like Italian pie and how much you enjoy running!
