I had set up gitosis as well. Also I'm not sure if its related but when I do
ssh localhost I get
ssh: Could not resolve hostname localhost: Name or service not known. Same for if I type out 127.0.0.1. SSH is working though, as I'm using it to connect to the server. Any idea whats causing this?

Member states of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) are weighing the implications of imposing sales tax, and this topic is on the agenda of today's meeting in Jeddah of the finance ministers of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman and Bahrain. The proposal, presented by the UAE and supported by Saudi Arabia, is based on the experience of the European Union. If approved, the measure could be implemented by 2007. Once implemented, it would start with sales tax on products such as cigarettes and luxury cars. No tax would be imposed on essential commodities such as medicine, medical appliances and foodstuffs.
The GCC launched the Customs Union in 2003. Compared to 2002, inter-GCC trade that year rose by 19.5 percent to $21.5 billion, the highest volume since the GCC's establishment in 1981. The GCC is a major consumer bloc with more than $80 billion in annual imports. Its total population exceeds 31 million, reporting a four percent annual population growth rate. The GCC states also hold about 45 percent of the world's total oil reserves and 15 percent of its gas reserves.
In May 2001, Saudi Arabia slashed customs tariffs on imports from 12 to 5 percent in a move widely welcomed by businessmen as a major boost to the country's economy that would strengthen the Kingdom's competitive edge; this followed a decision to ease trade regulations to allow imports of goods from fellow GCC states under preferential tariffs.

Well my family ended up getting a settlement from my Grandfathers death. I would gladly trade all the money I received to have him back, but that isn't an option. So, with that being said I'm going to get myself a new gun, something he would of liked very much.
Current carry gun is an M&P 9c. This works great for most of the year, but in just a t-shirt sometimes it protrudes a little. I had my heart set on either a Kahr Pm9 or Cw9 before I found the sweet deal on the M&P.
Now for roughly the same price I can get either a PM9, to fulfill my summer needs, carry IWB or pocket depending on attire. OR, I can purchase a CW9 for IWB needs and either a LCP/P3AT for pocket needs. The price is pretty much the same. But I am concerned about finding .380 ammo. What's everybody think?
Also let me just say I don't pocket carry that much. When I have on a snow suit and no belt, or if I am going to be going shirtless, or when riding my motorcycle is about the only times I would. Cargo pants work, but jeans the pocket is on top of my thigh instead of off to the side.
One last tidbit, I am left handed so dropping the slide release lever will not be easy for me. I either have to reach up under w/ my right hand or try to slingshot it. Has anyone been able to do this effectively?

How is WWF run?
Currently, the President is Yolanda Kakabadse. President Emeritus is HRH The Duke of Edinburgh.
Gland, Switzerland is the home of WWF International, the secretariat for WWF's global organization. Its role is to lead and coordinate the WWF Network of offices around the world, through developing policies and priorities, fostering global partnerships, coordinating international campaigns, and providing supportive measures in order to help make the global operation run as smoothly as it can.
The various WWF offices around the world come under two categories:
1) those that can raise funds and carry out work autonomously, and
2) those that must work under the direction of one of the independent WWF offices.
In all cases, WWF's offices carry out conservation work such as practical field projects, scientific research, advising local and national governments on environmental policy, promoting environmental education, and raising awareness of environmental issues.
Each office that can work independently (type 1) also contributes funding to WWF's global conservation programme (PDF Format: 3MB), while all offices help contribute to an enormous pool of environmental expertise and knowledge.
A specialist WWF office in Brussels works to influence the policies and activities of the European Union, while a second WWF Office in Washington DC works to influence global institutions involved in international economic issues, such as the World Bank.
WWF's 4 Associate Organisations are non-governmental organizations that work closely with WWF in countries where WWF has no independent office (type 1). The Associates promote shared conservation objectives, but do not contribute financially to the WWF Network.
In all, WWF has primary offices and associates in over 40 countries around the world, working as a team towards an overall goal: to halt and reverse the destruction of our natural environment.

We had a chance to talk with "Biggest Loser" season 15 winner Rachel Frederickson, 24, who broke show records with her nearly 60 percent weight loss to take home the $250,000 top prize.
In a conference call with reporters on Wednesday afternoon, we asked her about her plans to keep at her goal. The 5-foot-5 voiceover actor went from 260 pounds to 105 pounds during the course of the show and her time at home.
"I'm definitely going to continue on this path with the support of everyone at 'The Biggest Loser' and make them proud," she said and added that now that the show is over, she's hoping to find balance with exercise, work and eating.
We asked her about some of the favorite recipes that fueled her on The Biggest Loser Ranch.
"Every day on the ranch I made this French toast. It's an egg-white French toast and it is to die for," she said. "That is my go-to breakfast or that or I make an egg white, spinach, cherry tomato and mushroom omelet. And then we made these sweet potato chips for the challenge with Sam Kass from The White House."
But her dramatic weight loss was Topic No. 1 during the interview.
"I am extremely proud of the way I lost the weight on the show," she said. "I did everything so naturally, and the athlete in me really came back."
What did she think of the public discussion about her weight?
"First and foremost, my goals are to be healthy and strong, I'm an athlete. I've been an athlete since I was a little girl," the former competitive swimmer said. "And I went on 'The Biggest Loser' journey to find that confidence that I lost and through the challenges, through the challenge that I fought to get into the finale, I found that girl again."
She repeatedly stressed that she'll be working on finding a balance between the weight she once was and her final weight. "Now it's about putting on the pendulum swing and finding that balance," she said.
"I went to an extremely heavy weight and now it's about finding that balance in my lifestyle and just maintaining this active, healthy, strong person that has just come out through this seven-and-a-half month journey."
