Ive got a Smith&Wess MP40 compact, kimber ultra carry 3", and an airweight S&W .38.
Ive trained in all three, put 1000+ rounds through all of them, comfortable with them all (no tactical training... YET, on any of them), just range time, 7, 10, 25 m)
All three have crimson trace laser grips.
Im having trouble deciding which should be my normal carry piece.
What stands out with all 3...
S&W40c: Light, and really molds around my hand. I fell in love with the feel of it right away. Sights are good, standard white dots. Mag holds 10, havent ever had a problem with feeding anything. The trigger pull is longer than I would like. No external safety (doesnt bother me).
Kimber 3" 1911: Awesome trigger, I love firing single action, very accurate 1-2" spread <10m if I really really try. Also has laser grip. Very lightweight. I like the design a lot. Its also quite a pretty piece, but looks don't matter for this too much.
Airweight revolver: I can put this anywhere, but its only 5 shots. I dont want to carry another mag or speedloader during normal carry. Surprisingly accurate with my lasergrips, but the sights are horrible. otherwise. Not completely comfortable yet with iron sights, would actually prefer the laser sights (i dont want to rely on them but its SO easy to just take it anywhere).
Assuming I carry chambered, cocked/locked, etc with all 3, which would you carry if you had the choice, and why?
Assume equal consistency in feeding for the two semis, and assume you just have to pick one (I understand its ok to switch based on scenarios)
Thanks for your input!

Escape to Madness: Chptr. VIIIChapter eightBemusement Bellatrix, I think you should wear your hair down.Why the hell would I want to do that?Because you look gorgeous. Ellette bounced a black lock on her palm. Wear it down. Shock everyone!Bellatrix gave a snort. Her fingers sought her long, wavy hair and ran through it. Her gaze in the mirror returned pensive as she considered Ellettes words. Heaving a sigh, she thought it best not to argue.Fine. Arrange it nicely, please. No- not like that. Wait- actually just go ahead. I trust you. Bellatrix caught her lower lip between her teeth, watching Ellette carefully twist her inky black hair in the mirror. She occasionally lifted a hand to touch the loose curls, through which Ellette was placing miniscule, shining jewels.If every man does not fall in love with you tonight, Ellette spoke up, then they are all blind. And my brother is halfway there already.Bellatrix
Escape to Madness: Chapter IVChapter fourI didnt choose you As she had promised, Bellatrix showed up in the throne room the next morning- and the mornings following that. For the next two weeks she lingered about the throne hall, sometimes talking with Ellette or Valania if she happened to show up, or even to Sheogorath- who, she hated to admit, she was growing fond of. He was unpredictable and clever; Bellatrix soon found his sly wit almost an even match for hers. At first she had found him rather arrogant, but his brilliance soon outshone it as she allowed herself to get to know the madgod. A sort of friendship was forming between the former assassin and the Prince of Madness- one that was not entirely unwelcome.Some days she would simply sit near the throne- occasionally in it- when Sheogorath negotiated with his Lords, Ladies, ambassadors and his duke and duchess. Court life soon grew close to engrossing.One morning, however, Sheogorath got to his feet almost immediately when Bellatrix came int

The Arkansas Alternative Fuels Development Act establishes an annual goal of 50 million gallons of alternative fuels produced at production facilities in the state by October 6, 2008. Furthermore, by January 1, 2009, all diesel-powered motor vehicles, light trucks, and equipment owned or leased by a state agency must be operated using diesel fuel that contains a minimum of 2% biofuels by volume. Waivers to the 2% biofuels standards for state agency vehicles may be granted if the fuel is not available in certain geographic area or if the fuel is at least $0.15 cents more expensive per gallon then the petroleum equivalent. The Arkansas Bureau of Standards will work to ensure fuel quality standards. (Reference Senate Bill 237, 2007)
Excise taxes on alternative fuels are imposed on a gasoline gallon equivalent basis. The tax rate for each type of alternative fuel is based on the number of motor vehicles licensed in the state that use each fuel type. (Reference Arkansas Code 26-62-201)
No user, including an alternative fuel supplier of natural gas fuels, who utilizes natural gas for residential or other tax-free purposes, is permitted to use natural gas fuels in motor vehicles unless the natural gas fuels are removed through a separate meter installed by the alternative fuels supplier for such purposes. (Reference Arkansas Code 26-62-203)
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) User Permit Any user of LNG or LPG as an alternative fuel in vehicles must apply for and obtain a liquefied gas special fuel user's permit for each vehicle owned and operating on LNG or LPG. Applications must be submitted to the Director of the Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration. (Reference Arkansas Code 26-56-304)
LPG as a motor fuel is taxed on a per vehicle basis through a yearly flat-fee special fuel user's permit. The amount of the fee is based on the vehicle's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. (Reference Arkansas Code 26-56-301 and 26-56-304)
Any individual or company who converts an AFV to operate on an alternative fuel must report the conversion to the Director of the Department of Finance and Administration within 10 days of the conversion. An owner or operator who fails to report such a conversion may be subject to a penalty. (Reference Arkansas Code 26-62-214)

text: 000 FGUS65 KSTR 042152 ESGWY COLORADO BASIN RIVER FORECAST CENTER NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SALT LAKE CITY UTAH SPRING FLOOD POTENTIAL FOR THE GREEN AND BEAR RIVER BASINS IN WYOMING March 4, 2015 The 2015 spring runoff flood potential due to snowmelt is is not high this time for the Upper Green and Bear River basins. However, it should be emphasized that snow typically accumulates into April,therefore conditions may change before the runoff begins. Currently, the following sites are forecast to peak at or above the bankfull or flood flow at the given exceedance level (for example, there is a 50% chance the Green River near LaBarge will exceed bankfull): Flood Flow: No points are forecast to exceed flood flow Bankfull: Green River near LaBarge 50% Green River at Green River, Wyoming 25% Bear River at Evanston, WY 10% Below to near average peak flows are expected for southwest Wyoming based on the current snow conditions. However, it is important to note that specific forecast procedures and flood flow levels do not exist for every stream. February precipitation was below average in all basins across southwest Wyoming with values ranging from 65 to 70 percent of average. Seasonal precipitation is slightly below average in both the Upper Green above Flaming Gorge and Bear River basins. However, seasonal precipitation is near normal in headwater areas above Fontenelle reservoir. March 1 snow water equivalent is 115% of median above Fontenelle reservoir, 105% of median above Flaming Gorge reservoir, and 70% of median in the headwaters of the Bear River. However, there is much variation between individual SNOTEL sites within each basin due to the generally warm winter which has seen precipitation falling as rain instead of snow at times as well as some earlier than normal melt that occurred during February at relatively high elevations. Although spring temperatures affect the pattern of snowmelt runoff and consequently the magnitude of peak flows, peak flows also roughly correspond to volumetric flows. The current volume forecasts for the April through July runoff period are near average in the Upper Green above Fontenelle reservoir and below average in all other basins. It is also important to keep in mind that an extended period of much above normal temperatures or heavy rainfall during the melt period can cause or exacerbate flooding problems in any year, regardless of snowpack conditions. A list of specific spring peak flow forecasts are available at: http://www.cbrfc.noaa.gov/rmap/peak/peaklist.php A map of the current spring peak flow forecasts is available at: http://www.cbrfc.noaa.gov/lmap/lmap.php?interface=peak CBRFC/A.Nielson,P.Miller $$

Plastic Planet: New Research and Solutions for the Ocean Trash Problem
Please join us on September 18 in celebration of the 30th anniversary of California Coastal Cleanup Day, and a deep dive into the issue of marine debris and ocean plastic pollution.
"Plastic Planet" features insights from the voyages of 5 Gyres Institute. 5 Gyres Executive Director Anna Cummins and 5 Gyres Research Director Marcus Eriksen, via satellite communication from the South Pacific, will discuss preliminary results from the recent 5 Gyres Viking Gyre Expedition across the North Atlantic Gyre. The extent of the global issue of plastic pollution will be discussed, along with recent 5 Gyres Campaigns that encourage solutions.
Program highlights also include the work of SeaDoc Society's California Lost Fishing Gear Recovery Project – one important aspect of a global issue. As part of a project generously funded by Covanta and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation through the Fishing for Energy Program, Aquarium of the Bay and Truth Be Told Creative are producing a short film about key aspects of the marine debris problem, and everyday actions we can all take to be part of the solution to plastic pollution.
Anna Cummins, 5 Gyres Executive Director, has over 10 years of experience in marine conservation, coastal watershed management, sustainability education, and high school ecology instruction; and has participated in research expeditions in all five ocean gyres. Anna received her undergraduate in History from Stanford University, and her Masters in International Environmental Policy from the Monterey Institute for International Studies. Anna and her husband, Marcus Eriksen, co-founded 5 Gyres in 2009 to research and communicate plastic pollution in the world's ocean.
Since 2005, SeaDoc Society's Jennifer Renzullo has been working with commercial fishermen, port managers, and other partners statewide to recover over 90 tons of lost fishing gear from California waters, and to plan for gear recycling stations to keep unwanted gear from becoming marine debris. Jennifer is currently working with crab fishermen to help create a long-term and self-supporting gear recovery program operated by the Dungeness crab fishery.
DATE: Thursday, September 18, 2014
RECEPTION: 5:30 pm PROGRAM: 6:30 pm
LOCATION: Bay Theater at Aquarium of the Bay
COST: $10 Includes 1 drink ticket and light fare.

An aluminum alloy body and plenty of color help the Galaxy S6 forge a new Samsung path.
The electronics titans square off in a tangled tale of mobile technology, centered on Apple's iPhone
Let's see what Samsung's and Apple's flagship smartphones have under the hood.
The Galaxy S5 and earlier Galaxy smartphones had replaceable batteries and storage expansion slots. But the new GS6 says goodbye to that flexibility in favor of a sleeker design.
Subtle rounding on both sides lends this S6 variation some symmetry -- and a way for lefties to play along.
Time to thin out your wallet! CNET demos Samsung Pay on your mobile phone.
They sound alike, but the two mobile payment solutions each offer their own unique advantages.
Forget plastic. Bold decisions to use premium materials and remove some favorite features will have Galaxy fans reeling, for better or for worse.
Pricing not available
Create a speed dial for your favorite contacts and customize the settings. We take you on a deeper features tour.
Prepare yourself for Samsung's most premium flagship phones yet. For the phone maker, they're anything but typical.
Is Samsung afraid to commit to one Galaxy S6? The two new models are the same, except for the screen -- and both remove features fans loved. Meanwhile, HTC shows off the Grip fitness band and Vive VR headset.

Genetic Testing: Don't Be Bullied into an Amnio
Women over 35 and those with a high chance of having children with Down syndrome, cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, or other genetic disorders are often faced with the decision to have an amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling (CVS), and both require inserting either a really long needle or tube into the fetus through the mother. Ouch! But more disturbing than that painful visual is the idea that the very tests that are supposed to tell you if you will have any genetic complications with your pregnancy can actually cause major complications—by way of infections or even miscarriage.
It's shocking to me that not everyone is being told about the wonders of non-invasive prenatal testing, or genome sequencing, which can now be done via a simple blood draw through the mama-to-be's arm. A friend of a friend is due in September, and I couldn't believe it when I was told that her doctor was insisting she have either an amnio or CVS purely because of her age (she's 35).
That's upsetting to me because there are so many more elements that contribute to whether you have genetic disorders—um, like genetics! Your and your partner's ethnic background and family history are the most important factors. Both parents need to screen positive for a genetic abnormality for your child to inherit the condition, and even then there is only a 25 percent chance your baby will have the disease.
So when this woman was unsure whether she wanted to have either an amnio or CVS done because of the risks both bring to the baby, she spoke to a genetic counselor (thank God!), who then told her about the risk-free blood test version. Her OB never even mentioned it as a possibility! It goes to show you that unfortunately you can't always rely on your doctor to tell you everything. You need to educate yourself as much as possible about all things pregnancy so you can advocate for yourself and your baby.
TELL US: Has your doctor told you about non-invasive prenatal testing? Has a doctor insisted you get amnio or CVS?

YouTube app and buffering
I have had this problem since the beginning, and was hoping upgrading to JDQ39 would fix it, but it didn't.
Whenever I try and watch videos in the YouTube app, they will stop and buffer from what ranges to about every 20-30 seconds, to every 5 seconds. It is absolutely maddening, especially when I'm on a 20Mb connection and have zero issues playing YouTube videos on any computer. It does it at work too, and we have a 100Mb connection there. Sometimes switching from the HD version to the lower quality version helps if the video has the option, sometimes it doesn't help at all.
From searching around the internet it seems lots of other people have this same problem. I've tried some of the fixes like clearing YouTube's data and cache and restarting, but it did not fix it.
Anyone have any ideas? I don't have Netflix or Hulu, I do have Amazon Prime with Instant Video but there's no app for it, so really YouTube is the only place I want to go to watch videos, and it makes me mental when it does this buffering crap.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks. -
Re: YouTube app and buffering
I dont know if this has anything to do with the update but my notification light now works..... till now. Will need at least 24 hours on this coz its been driving me bananas, now it works now it doesnt, now it works.....you get my drift (Oooops sorry wrong thread :-)

Re: YouTube app and buffering
I have the same problem tablet is 25 days old. It is only on the video which are streamed via you tube or web embedded. Google says to go to the lowest quality available & to start & pause video so that you can watch it buffer out and then you can watch it uninterrupted. Such BS Why did I pay for the best resolution screen on the market if I am to watch videos at 240.
I heard of a fix relating to an upgrade on your router but I haven't tried it because Google doesn't know what is the real problem.ttThanked by: - 02-25-2013, 09:38 PM #7
Re: YouTube app and buffering
Isn't news. YouTube app sucks. I have an iPhone and frequent Apple forums quite often and its preferred to use the YouTube web app or 3rd party app over the actual app. Just getting throttled. My biggest gripe with Androids YouTube app is there is no way for it to use SD as the default resolution.
I just tried the WiFi optimization with no effect. If I wait a couple hours it will stream HD no problem once network traffic slows down. I have a 30 mbs home connection which I can get those speeds easily, usually much higher, but not to a YouTube server between 3pm - 11pm.

Re: YouTube app and buffering
Glad someone started this thread because it is aggravating, whether using Youtube app or browser. Looking forward to a solution when someone finds success.

Re: YouTube app and buffering
Looks like I forgot to update the thread. Turning off wifi optimization mostly fixed the problem, but there are still a few hiccups here and there.
Re: YouTube app and buffering
If you can speed test at 10 MBS or better with WiFi optimization on then turning it off will have no effect. Any noticed will be coincidence or in your head.
4 billion hours of video are watched each mouth, 72 hours of videos are uploaded every MINUTE. Don't be surprised if their servers get slow. And yes that buffering every 5 seconds annoys the crap out of me.
There used to be a time that you could pause the video and let it load the entire thing but they fixed that. Lol...

Re: YouTube app and buffering
Glad I found this thread! I've been looking at switching over to Android from iOS, and was wondering if there was some issue with YouTube on Android.
A coworker's HTC Evo 4G (on Sprint, with full signal bars) was always buffering or not connecting properly while at work, while my iPhone 3GS (from 2009) had no issues on YouTube and AT&T (or while both were on the same WiFi network). So, while lusting over a Galaxy Note 2 at AT&T the other day, I tried YT on the Note 2 which was on their WiFi network in their store. At the same time I queued up the same video on my iPhone, also connected to the store's WiFi network. My phone ran fine while the Note 2 kept buffering and stuttering.
As an asides, after playing with the Note 2 I can't get past the dull, bluish, very little white AMOLED screen. Maxed out brightness and with the color temp set to the brightest white, it's still no match for the brightness and sharpness of my old iPhone.
So, thinking that maybe the Note 2's screen was maybe defective or lost some of its pizazz over its life as a demo phone, I headed off to Verizon across the street, just to see if their Note 2 would have a brighter screen than the one over at AT&T. While over at Verizon, I tried my 3GS connected to AT&T's cellular network versus Verizon's Note 2 on the store's WiFi network on YouTube. I queued up the same video on both phones and let them play. The Note 2 started playing a few seconds sooner than the iPhone, but within a few seconds, the Note 2 started buffering, starting and stopping throughout, and just before the end of the video, it crashed to a black screen (maybe the demo phone turned off, but I don't know). The iPhone played the video without issue. I tried the same test, but with the the Note 2, and the iPhone 5 nearby. The Note 2 had issues while the iPhone had none.
So, that 's 3 Android phones (1 EVO and 2 Note 2's) that cannot seem to play YT videos without buffering multiple times. I did raise the question to a saleslady at Verizon about the YT issues I was seeing, and she said that was typical because all of the phones in the store are sharing the same network. Maybe so, but why wouldn't their iPhone have the same issues as their Note 2 since both were on the same router?
As another asides...the Note 2's screen at Verizon was just as disappointing as the one at AT&T. I've now decided that an AMOLED screen is not for me. I had truly wanted the Note 2 due to the S-pen (and the 5.5" screen), but I think I might end up getting the LG Optimus G Pro now. 5.5" screen, gorgeous, very bright, very high def IPS LED screen, but alas no S-Pen, and battery life not nearly as good as the Note 2. I gotta back and check out the YT on that phone now. Hopefully it works!!! I truly don't want to get an iPhone 5 as even with its larger screen, its still tooo small for my aging eyes. - 08-20-2013, 09:35 AM #15
Re: YouTube app and buffering
I just installed the new YouTube app .adk See here: YouTube lines up its latest hit | Internet & Media - CNET News for more details.
Buffering problem in regards to my Nexus 10 seem to have gone away, I tried about a dozen videos this morning without a hiccup. (The new UI is really slick BTW) I've got two guesses as to why this was happening.
#1 My original Youtube app needed to be re-installed as something in how the app was storing or caching data was jamming up the video playback.
#2 The issue might have been corrected in the updated Youtube app. - 08-29-2013, 04:41 PM #16
Re: YouTube app and buffering
Hmm I turn wifi optimization off, new yt app /or also old, yet youtube always buffers on my N10 but perfectly on my droid 4 and brothers droid razr maxx hd. It seems to be a issue with the tablet, even with full wifi they hardly load.
Re: YouTube app and buffering
Agreed, I had my N10 for 6 months and lately it has been embarrassingly slow. From browsing to YouTube and everything in between. I formatted data, flashed every rom under the sun and reverted to bonestock and it's still a slug. My morning routine is to drink a cup of coffee and watch some news on YouTube. Like clockwork, 3 minutes in and freeze lag. We always have to resort to my wife's iPad or my gs3 or her note2. Even if im right next to my router that is putting out 100mbps I can't load a page without hitting stop and refresh a few times.
I'm at wits end with this crap and refuse to buy even a newer router for one device that is going to be outdated in a month or two.
Sorry for the rant but seriously wtf. - 10-16-2013, 10:35 AM #18I think your skills are improving.

And Now You Know: Nicieza's First Foray into the New Mutants
By Renchamp Comments
New Mutants #98: Welcome to Fabian Nicieza. I'm not sure how much power he had as a writer because Rob Liefeld was continually given plotting credits. The one thing I do know, however, is that the only bit-role characters (or NPCs, if we can up the nerd-notch a bit) are incredibly generic. What am I talking about? Well, Domino, Deadpool, and Gideon are introduced in this issue. They are big players, some more-so than others. The only other characters are either regulars (like the members of the New Mutants) or already established (like Emmanuel DaCosta, Sunspot's father). Oh wait, there are two characters made up especially to be nobodies: Adam and Eve. They could have been real nobodies and operated as nameless goons doing their master's bidding, but they were given names. One is a guy, the other a girl. Why not get so completely unoriginal that we use the first two names... ever? Now, I don't know if this was Fabian's attempt at humor with his new responsibilities or if this simply showcases Liefeld's ability to create incredibly original characters (Deadpool) alongside the blandest (Adam). Regardless, this happened on Nicieza's first credit for the New Mutants. Interesting tidbit to have start what ends up being a stellar run by Nicieza (mostly).

Believers in the Central Travancore district of Pathanamthitta observed Palm Sunday with religious fervour today.
Special service was offered as part of the Palm Sunday celebrations at various churches in the forenoon. Believers took out processions around the church, holding tender leaves of coconut palm (kuruthola) as part of the celebrations.
The Palm Sunday, also known as `Osana-Njayar' and `Kuruthola Perunaal', marks the beginning of the Holy Week that recalls the last days of Jesus Christ.
The special Palm Sunday service at the St John's Metropolitan Cathedral in Thiruvalla was led by the vicar, Fr Shaji Vazhayil.
The special service at the St Peter's Cathedral in Pathanamthitta was led by Bishop Youhanon Mar Chrysostum in the morning.
Sacred Heart Church at Mylapra, Makkamkunnu, St George Orthodox Church in Pathanamthitta town, St George Orthodox Church at Konni, St. Thomas Malankara Catholic Church at Thumpamon, St Thomas Knanaya Church at Ranni, Maraymatha Feronah Church in Pathanamthitta, St Thomas Malankara Catholic Church at Kanjirappara, St Mary's Orthodox Church in Thiruvalla, St Peter's and St Paul's Church at Parumala, Kallooppara St Mary's Orthodox Church, St Thomas Malankara Catholic Church at Vennikkulam, St Mary's Catholic Church at Kumbazha, St Augastine Catholic Church at Kaipattoor and Thirumoolapuram St Thomas Catholic Church near Thiruvalla were among the churches where Palm Sunday was observed with added fervour.
Mathews Mar Themotheos Metropolitan led the Palm Sunday special service at Konni St George Orthodox Church.
Believers also carried crosses made of tender palm leaves in the procession. They believe that keeping the palm leaves they received from the church at their home, work place or business places till the next Palm Sunday will bring them good luck in the year ahead.
The Holy Week observation ends with believers celebrating the resurrection of Christ on Easter day.

Naruto Arena? Sounds cool.What is it about?
does anyone have this manga or seen/read it? it seems to be about the .hack//infection part 1 of the ps2 game in manga form. is that right? it seems there will be 4 volumes to this novel. great! i just want to know what the story is exactly. i've read the description but its not enough.

i have all 4 of the .hack// games but i havent heard about the new manga
its somewhat rpg except u dont level up lol. u fight 3 v 3 against random online opponents. its all about luck and strategy. luck first kuz u get random chakra. if u get the right chakra u can win with your strategy. if not then u loose.Originally Posted by TaurusDemon23
back on topic: yeah...i only have the .hack//twilight bracelet manga (all 3 volumes). they were good in its own way. i just want to know about this another birth. im going to try and buy .hack//ai buster manga. only two volumes xD
Oh yeah I've read the first .hack//infection novel. It's really good. I recommend it. I like it because it explains Blackrose more in depth. good stuff.Originally Posted by iazndragoni yan
so its basically based on the 4 .hack games for ps2 in black rose's perspective right?
wonder when a .Hack Roots manga is going to come out. I wanna see wut Haseo looks like in manga form
u know u like him
the .hack// project doesn't seem to like to release manga as much as they do anime.... I've heard the rumor of the new manga but have yet to see it.... as for roots I doubt that they will release it seeing how it was released in korea as only an anime, or so I've gathered...

Fabulous Adventures In Coding
Eric Lippert is a principal developer on the C# compiler team. Learn more about Eric.
A thing that makes a reader go hmmm is why in C#, int divided by long has a result of long, even though it is clear that when an int is divided by a (nonzero) long, the result always fits into an int.
I agree that this is a bit of a head scratcher. After scratching my head for a while, two reasons to not have the proposed behaviour came to mind.
First, why is it even desirable to have the result fit into an int? You'd be saving merely four bytes of memory and probably cheap stack memory at that. You're already doing the math in longs anyway; it would probably be more expensive in time to truncate the result down to int. Let's not have a false economy here. Bytes are cheap.
A second and more important reason is illustrated by this case:
long x = whatever;x = 2000000000 + 2000000000 / x;
Suppose x is one. Should this be two integers, each equal to two billion, added together with unchecked integer arithmetic, resulting in a negative number which is then converted to a long? Or should this be the long 4000000000 ?
Once you start doing a calculation in longs, odds are good that it is because you want the range of a long in the result and in all the calculations that get you to the result.
There is one case where it fails if the result must be an integer, but not if the result is a long.
long x = -1;
x = Integer.MinValue / -1;
Makes sense.
Also, what about -2147483648 / ((long)-1)? If the result type of the expression was an int, the answer would be -2147483648. Since the result is long, you get 2147483648.
Aren't all divisions natively cast to the whatever type is largest in the division itself?
int / decimal = decimal?
byte / float = float?
long / int = long?
Fiddling with this code seemed to confirm that very idea.
--- to test, made a simple console app exe
--- fiddling around with the number and the types of vars a and b
using System;
namespace NamespaceOrama
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
byte a = 5;
int b = 23;
var c = (a / b);
So, after all that, I say, "So what, and where's the C+C music factory reference?"
Then I wait and say... "Oooh, better yet... let's try Marky Mark, just to stay fresh."
C/C++ have integral promotions. C# specification also says http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa691330(VS.71).aspx almost the same thing.
However, which one is the egg and which one is chicken here?
@Christopher: The divisions are not cast. These are the defined operators:
int / int
long / long
byte / byte
decimal / decimal
When you try to divide long / int (or int / long) the int is cast to a long because that's the best match the overload resolution can find, and there's an implicit cast defined from int to long.
hey Eric,
you ask "First, why is it even desirable to have the result fit into an int?"
One thought that immediately came to mind is that if I'm working with ints that came from an SQL DB, divide them for some reason, and want to write the result back to the DB, then what I'm writing back darn well better be an int or the write/update will fail. Sometimes it's harder to make changes to old DB schemas (esp if it was made when memory was expensive) than it is to change data types in a program.
private const char c = 'C';
private const string abc = "AB" + c;
Hm, my recent post got a bit to short. That my little code snippet is illegal makes me go hmmm.
Here is the snippet again:
Thank you for submitting this cool story - Trackback from DotNetShoutout
There is another important reason: to minimize mental load of understanding the language.
The rule "Any operator, when fed a mix of ints and longs, always returns a long" is much simpler and easier to remember than the rule "Any operator, when fed a mix of ints and longs, always returns a long except for division, where an int divided by a long returns an int because the result must necessarily fit into an int."
-- Michael Chermside
This is well covered in computer science's Compiler 101 course.
Now, I'm no C++ or Visual Studio/Express coder, I prefer PureBasic myself a nice procedural language that easily match C in most cases.
But I have looked at quite a bit of C and C++ code, and I have looked up the Windows SDK type definitions.
An int and a long are both actually a signed __int32.
From: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa383751(VS.85).aspx
INT is a 32-bit signed integer. The range is -2147483648 through 2147483647 decimal.
This type is declared in WinDef.h as follows:
typedef int INT;
LONG is a 32-bit signed integer. The range is –2147483648 through 2147483647 decimal.
This type is declared in WinNT.h as follows:
typedef long LONG;
And in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/s3f49ktz.aspx
long is 4 bytes, other names is long int, signed long int, range is –2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647
__int32 is 4 bytes, other names are signed, signed int, int, range is –2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647
int is 4 bytes, other names is signed int, range is –2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647
So any compiler that treats INT and LONG differently (they are both a 32bit signed integer) is bugged and unpredictable per the definitions.
"why is it even desirable to have the result fit into an int? You'd be saving merely four bytes of memory"
Sounds to me like you are talking about int as if it was a LONG LONG or __int64, and don't forget LONG_PTR (32bits on x86, 64bits on x64)
Of course, I could be wrong and in C# a long is actually a signed __int64 rather than a signed __int32 as the Windows SDK states... they can't both be right can they? (I trust the SDK more than C# compiler in this case)
Yes, you are wrong. Indeed, in the 32 bit windows SDK for C/C++ both INT and LONG are aliases for a 32 bit signed integer. That has nothing whatsoever to do with C#, a completely different language that targets the .NET Runtime, not the Win32 SDK. The C# compiler has nothing whatsoever to do with the Win32 SDK. There's not a contradiction there; they are just completely different systems. In C#, an int is 32 bits and a long is 64 bits. -- Eric
Maybe time for back to basics adventure in coding article to highlight this typedef mess that has stayed with C through C++ to C# (and bled into some other languages as well) and the two MSDN links I gave which everyone should have bookmarked at the very least.
It hasn't bled through to C# at all. These definitions for C/C++ programmers have nothing whatsoever to do with C#, a completely different language that targets a different platform. -- Eric

Authorities say six people have been injured after a car ran out of gas on the Thruway in central New York and was rear-ended by another vehicle.
State police say an 18-year-old woman from Newark was westbound on Interstate 90 when her car ran out of gas around 6 a.m. Friday. Troopers say she pulled over to the left shoulder in the Seneca County town of Junius, but the car came to rest partially in the left lane.
She called a friend following behind her in a sport utility vehicle, but the 18-year-old Geneva man driving the SUV didn't see her car and slammed into the back. The car overturned and landed in the medium.
Troopers say six of the nine people in the two vehicles suffered injuries, none of them life-threatening.

Revolutionary Politics::Revolutionary Politics : Tea Party Speaker Disses Palin, Crowd Erupts! this is a video of how confused the Tea baggers are...
Who is Sarah Palin :confused2:. If we all click our heels 3 times and close our eyes maybe she will disappear.
I'm a tea partier and I do not support Sarah Palin, but if i had a choice between her and nobama. Palin would be my choice. I would take a woman who has conservative views over a communist any day!! VOTE RON PAUL 2012!!
KDP, Could you please define what it means to be a Communist and how, specifically, Obama fits within that definition? Thanks!

I love your assumptions :) I'm probably far older than you & have a graduate degree in computer science.
And being liberal means being 'Open to new behavior or opinions and willing to discard traditional values.'
It is possible that old age makes a person less liberal, the reason being age-related destruction of brain cells.
And MAN, I would need to lose an enormous number of brain cells to start becoming religious and accepting rape as "God's Plan" :))
America's youth aren't misguided...they are sheep. All of their professors are left wing liberal progressive democrats...the professors tell these youth sheep how to think...and guess what...that's how they think. Sheep.
You need to get your facts right. Actually in Canada, health care makes up 10% of their GDP, in the US its 16%. Yes 90% of its population lives on 15% of its land mass, but that is still 1/4 as densely population as California. Its a massive country even 15% is very large. It still takes 3-4 days driving straight through the night to get from Montreal to Vancouver.
In general, things in Canada are more expensive (food, fuel) than in the US, because its sparely populated. They don't have economies of scale etc. So why is health care cheaper in Canada? Some people are argue about R+D driving cost, the US does all the research. But seriously, US in all sectors spends 2.5% of its GDP on R&D, Canada
Comparing California with Canada is silly. A better comparison would be to compare life expectancy of border states in the US with neighboring Canadian provinces, where the demographics, climate are similar.
If you look at it, there is little difference between neighboring US border states and Canadian provinces in terms of life expectancy. Some Canadian provinces are more violent than bordering US states (ie Manitoba vs Wisconsin / Minnesota). The homicide rate in Manitoba is 4 / 100000 compared to 2.5 / 100000 in Wisconsin. Manitoba has a large native population, 15% of the population are natives, with alot of serious drug issues. Sniffing glue/gasoline is not going to help. Life expectancy in Manitoba is about the same as Wisconsin.
Yet health care cost are higher in those states vs their neighboring Canadian provinces, even ones that are more densely population. Why?
The health care schemes in the Western world is not a "liberal" concept, the first one was founded by Bismarck over a hundred years ago. Canada is a hybrid system, it has elements of Britain's NHS and Bismarckian system found in the Germany/Japan/Switzerland/Singapore etc. Taiwan's model is based on Canada's.
The US system is a hodge podge of systems. You have those with no insurance (ie like nearly all third world countries) 15% of the population, they pay out of pocket. Those with employer sponsored health care insurance (Bismarckian system), its regulated by the state, but private insurers provide the insurance. Than you have those on Medicare, which is like Canada's single payer system.
The US system is nightmare, its better just abolishing the whole employer funded system, and go with single payer and get people to pay out of pocket like they do in Mexico. The life expectancy in Mexico is 1.5 years lower than the US and they spend only 7% of their GDP on health care. If you compared the life expectancy in New Mexico with Mexico, there is just about a year's difference. Mexicans are overweight, have extremely high murder rate.
The young are more likely to be influenced by lofty rhetoric and platitudes. They are more controllable. Think Hitler and Communist Youth leagues.
Multiple sclerosis is your personal responsibility. Why do you refuse to take care of your personal responsibility and want the government to treat your MS?
Damn socialist.
Conservatives are sheep. They believe what their ignorant pastors and biased FOX pseudo-news tell them. Todd Akin is a good example of a poorly educated idiot who believes everything without checking [oh, he checks his bible, but science never].
It's better to be educated by professors who are socially progressive than by those who think Leviticus is anything but barbarism [yes I tried to read it, but there is too much murder and persecution for a humane individual to take--except those into S&M or other perversions like Fundamentalism].
I have run into precisely 3 doctrinaire Marxist professors on no fewer than 6 campuses, and saying that our good colleges and universities are overrun by them is hogwash. This idea is put forward by the troglodytes who consider evolution and social science to be dangerous leftism.
In response to the final paragraph of this article (from a 23 year old reader): In the framework of this* article, it's next to impossible for me to argue that one candidate is quantitatively better than the other. The campaign has been a series of vague talking points and party-line platitudes without verifiable detail. Candidate A's opinions are "evolving"; Candidate B's opinions flat out change depending on the audience. John Stewart and Bill O'Reilly, entertainers by trade, provided more substantive debate in one hour than the men campaigning for the President of the United States offered in three showings.
How do I quantify the value of equal rights for my gay friends? How do I weigh my abhorrence of government-prescribed values with my fiscally conservative economic worldview? How am I expected not to be disenfranchised by an election in which I disagree vehemently with both candidates on a number of issues that are significant to me?
To this line of rhetorical questioning, my "more experienced" (certainly not "older") friends and colleagues launch off on the same lecture: elections are about voting for the lesser of two evils. Despite being well informed and highly involved, the only conclusion I've reached is that the candidates represent different evils (metaphorically speaking) of unknown quantity.
"...the liberal brainwashing that takes place in our schools has pretty much worn off when you reach a certain age and experience."
And the solution is either not to go to school OR go to non-liberal religious schools (like the Bob Jones university where the science of Creationism trumps the baseless liberal lie of Evolution)
"Although Bob Jones University is primarily a teaching institution, the members of the science faculty have a long tradition of speaking, writing and doing research related to defending the Bible's account of creation."
(I've not yet looked up their 'defense-of-rape-as-God's-plan' page)
The young voters are being unreasonable. Both Romney and Ryan will say anything that any voter wants...
If you're aganst welfare, fine, I respect that (although non governmental studies show that abuse is rare). However, at least be consistent. Welfare spending is a drop in the bucket compared to middle class mortgage interest rate deductions and tax loopholes for millionnaires. If you're against government largesse, go after the significant amounts, not the pennies spent on welfare.
I pay American taxes even though I no longer live in the US. Is this fair, that I should be subsidizing millionnaires' tax breaks?
I never said that my suffering was greater than anyone else's. The PTSD example is slightly different since that's an acquired psychological condition that can be treated and in many cases people recover. MS is an autoimmune disorder.
I was talking about how does a private healthcare system deal with the market failure of certain people having faulty bodies. Private insurance works great for cars or buildings, because those are things where, if the item is faulty, the person can get rid of it and buy another one.
The problem with doing it for health is that there are some people like myself who have "faulty bodies." We can't get another one.
At the moment, before 2014, the law is set up so that the gains from insuring the comparatively young and wealthy goes to the private sector, while the cost of caring for the old, poor, or permanently disabled is shouldered by the public.
That's privatizing the gains of insurance and socializing the losses. Mandating that private insurers have to cover people like me means that the public is paying less. I thought you'd be down with that.
Also, in a world of finite resources, as you so eloquently put it, why do we have a system that consume 18% of the largest GDP in the world, when other 16 other countries (socialist strongholds like Israel and Taiwan among them) have better health outcomes for much cheaper with universal single payer insurance?
If you really cared about efficiency, you'd be clamoring to change the system to something cheaper.
Our private insurers haven't brought US costs down in the past 4 decades, maybe it's time we copy any one of 18 other nations that care for their people at far cheaper prices.
TS2912, How's that pizza delivery job working out for you? And still living with yo mama at age 29...that's got to suck dude.
Listen to me TS...I was a wimpy leftest democrat when I was your age...but trust me dude...you will wake up one day. The brainwashing that your government employee liberal professors gave you...it will pass.
DAG001, When I was 25 years old I was a liberal democrat just like you. Trust me dude...you will see the light as you grow older.
Romney opposes a $1 increse in tax revenue for every decrease of $10 in expenditures. We either volutarily get our deficit/debt under control: or sequester kicks in--automatic cuts to defense and social programs; or we look like Greece. Yet Romney even budgedted an increse in military spending. Romney's defense of not raising the defecit/debt is by cooking the books over 0.5% of real GDP growth, more than Obama forcast, to nearly 4% RGDP increase; even after cutting Obama's stimulous spending.
Uh, yeah, that was the young. I think more of Ron Paul, the Tea Party, and right-wing nuts that call themselves conservative christian. But yes, there are similarities between these gorupings an those you mention.
This generation may not be placard wielding activists or selfish slackers, but perhaps they could be considered "slacktivisits" what with their twitter and facebook being new sources of expressing their frustrations, concerns and "likes." But then again, putting too much emphasis on social media as an indicator of political activity is questionable too.
Maybe this generation, hit with a terrible recession, two wars, polarized country and subsequently put of by politics may turn out to be more thoughtful individuals, perhaps jaded at times but also grounded in reality when assessing and addressing the complex problems of our world. I know Kim Kardashian mania and the likes contradicts such an assertion but one can only "hope."
(First thing, never go back and edit a comment on the Economist boards because it destroys all of the formatting and makes it hard to read)
My point. The marketplace would not give me affordable healthcare as I know my price (1200 then 3000 now) and any company which charged me less than 3001 dollars would lose money.
The insurance companies actually love Medicare and Medicaid because they take the people that incur losses when insured (the old and the poor) and shift them onto the public purse while allowing the insurance companies to pocket the gains from insuring the remaining younger wealthier people. Add in the fact that private insurers take 15% of premiums for non health related purposes vs. 2% here or 3% in Medicare and I don't see why they should be involved.
Without government compulsion, there is no reason for any for profit company to provide me with healthcare after I know I'm sick. It's like betting on blackjack hand that's already busted. Can you please explain to me a profit based rationale for them to do so in the absence of government compulsion?
As for Taiwan, I've gotten two MRI's here, both on a week's notice. I don't know how Taiwan avoided having long waiting lists like Canada but they don't.
When Clint Eastwood (the keynote speaker at the RNC) goes all Josie Wales dismissing the President for talking to college students about loan interest rates what is the young voter to think?
"Almost as many under-30s describe themselves as conservative (33%) as liberal (37%). Most voted for Ronald Reagan in 1984 and the first George Bush in 1988."
No one under 30 today could have possibly voted for either Reagan or GHWB. One must be at least 18 to vote: for someone who turned 30 in 2012, the first election they were able to vote was Bush/Gore in 2000.
True. It all started with the hippie generation who are today in their 60s and 70s. They were the first all-about-me generation who begat the 2nd generation of all-about-me's, who are now in their 40s and 50s, who begat the 3rd generation of all-about-me's, now in their teens and 20's. Each generation more clueless and selfish than the last. Those smart enough to think for themselves are an ever dwindling group in this country.

Designer's Notes & Process
My inspiration for the DREAM Center program's logo design comes from the wonderful offering this program offers the children of the world. My intent in creating the logo was to create a design that would reach across to anyone anywhere in the world. I wanted to do 2 things. Create a logo that communicated the essence of the DREAM Center program, and make it accessible to go beyond borders. I decided to the play with acronym DREAM and what is stands for: Dance, Read, Express, Art, Music. The iconography, lettering and style I chose to play with where inspired by the wonder, curiosity and joy of being a child, which I feel comes across clear to anyone, anywhere in the world.
Thank you
Kourosh Gorji

Curitiba HotelsThe city of Curitiba is an architect's dream, with well-maintained neoclassical buildings sitting comfortably amongst challenging, modern designs. Wherever you turn, you'll be reminded of the city's rich history, and its commitment to the future, with many buildings winning awards for their stylish, daring designs. The city also has plenty of green spaces, with parks full of colorful flowers, and in the evening the downtown area is soaked in neon as the party people come out to play in the city's trendy nightspots. Things to seeCuritiba's Museum of Automobiles has a wide range of vintage vehicles within its impressive, shiny showroom. From the earliest automobiles to hi-tech Formula 1 racing cars, you can see how vehicles have evolved over time. Barigui Park is in the center of Curitiba, and is a calm, well-maintained park surrounded by the high-rise buildings of the capital. The sprawling Shopping Mueller center has department stores and international brands, all under a glass roof, with automatic walkways to help you get around the huge complex. The Oscar Niemeyer Museum is also housed in an ultra-modern, eye catching oval shaped building, and once inside you can see how the curves of the space allow for modern, spacious galleries where the impressive modern art can really stand out. At the center of the Botanical Garden of Curitiba you'll find an imposing atrium with multiple domes and dozens of rare floral species inside. Wander around the grounds and you'll enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and the scent of blooming flowers on the breeze. Hotels in
