Data Types in C#
C# allows you to define two types of variables: value types and reference types. The value types hold actual values, while reference types hold references to values stored somewhere in memory.
Also value types are allocated on the stack and are available in most programming languages. Reference types are allocated on the heap and typically represent class instances.
Predefined C# value types
Predefined C# reference types
Proper utilization of correct data types allows developers to make the most of the language, but may take some time for those who have used different programming languages prior to switching to C#. For more information about each type, visit the Microsoft Web site.
Re: Data Types in C#
Can you tell me why string is reference type and not as value type. I never understood this.
Re: Data Types in C#
Reference types actually hold the value of a memory address occupied by the object they reference. Consider the following piece of code, in which two variables are given a reference to the same object (for the sake of the example, this object is taken to contain the numeric property 'myValue').
Code: CSharp
This code illustrates how changing a property of an object using a particular reference to it is reflected in all other references to it. Note, however, that although strings are reference types, they work rather more like value types. When one string is set to the value of another, eg
Code: CSharp
Then s2 does at this point reference the same string object as s1. However, when the value of s1 is changed, for instance with
Code: CSharp
what happens is that a new string object is created for s1 to point to. Hence, following this piece of code, s1 equals "goodbye", whereas s2 still equals "hello".
The reason for this behaviour is that string objects are 'immutable'. That is, the properties of these objects can't themselves change. So in order to change what a string variable references, a new string object must be created.
Re: Data Types in C#
I am not sure and would like to know if this can be done.
int a = new int();
Re: Data Types in C#
string is an Object, that's why we instantiate it! int is not any class/object so, we can't do "new int();"
Re: Data Types in C#
int i = new int();
Re: Data Types in C#
How come?
Re: Data Types in C#
Test it and see.
Re: Data Types in C#
string is pretty much what is told but why you are able to do this
int i = new int();
Re: Data Types in C#
A data type can be described as being either:
A built-in data type such as an int or char
A user-defined data type such as a class or interface.
Data types can also be defined as being either:
Value Types : which store values
Reference Types: which store references to the actual
Pointer types :Which can be used only in unsafe mode

This article is totally copied from
I raise this issue long back. Currently imrantechi raise this issue..
Please consider it else you or me or anyone may suffer with a serious problem.
Re: Data Types in C#
We did not consider this as duplicate because the content is mainly from MSDN and also the same thing is there on other site
Re: Data Types in C#
as told by debleena is correct only.. but anyone cant put their name as author. Just put the from MSDN or give the link of msdn.
Re: Data Types in C#
Re: Data Types in C#
By any way it should come into that categories. means article should be deleted.
One thing our aim is to increase the quality of this forum. So Imrantechi told me to do this.
Re: Data Types in C#
Re: Data Types in C#
what is meant by this??
Re: Data Types in C#
As the content is from MSDN with a link to the content related pages and so its not duplicate
Re: Data Types in C#
If we are going to coping some article from other author then we should responsible to ask him for permission. Then he should tell that i have taken this artiicle from other source(like in u'r case MSDN) then i have to go MSDN' responsible person to ask for permission.
suppose the article(suppose A) which is copied from MSDN that person is responsible i.e. means he may be wrong or have taken permission from msdn.
But this article(by pradeep suppose B) copied from article A or may be from msdn. In both cases it's duplicate of msdn or that article. In both case it's illegal.
Re: Data Types in C#
shabbir why you are saying article by pradeep is not duplicate. this article is 100% duplicate from msdn or that article ( I have given a link)
First thing shabbir, you are saying duplicate. But do you know the meaning of duplicate???
This is not at all duplicate ... This is illegal Copied from some author article.
there is very big difference b/w duplicate and Illegal copied.
Duplicate: Author gives his same article to different different sites or magazine. Then those article are called duplicate.
Illegal(Unauthorized) Copied: Without taking any permission from aouthor, copied that article .
If he gave the permission then author name should be same author. Only you can advertize in your site with name of that author.
Re: Data Types in C#
Re: Data Types in C#
hello and thank you for your good discussion.
The question I have is this. we say we can hold any data type in object data type. we can hold integers, string, char, decimal and many others. so why would we need other data types? why microsoft put all of those int, string, char, byte, single, and ... to .net library. there must be a reason and I will be happy if anyone could help me.
thank you
Re: Data Types in C#
You can use code:
Using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Collections.Specialized;
using System.Text;
Here's the code block for deleting multiple records
#region Multiple Delete
private void DeleteRecords(StringCollection sc)
SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(GetConnectionString());
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(string.Empty);
foreach (string item in sc)
const string sqlStatement = "DELETE FROM Customers WHERE CustomerID";
sb.AppendFormat("{0}='{1}'; ",sqlStatement, item);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sb.ToString(), conn);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
catch (System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException ex)
string msg = "Deletion Error:";
msg += ex.Message;
throw new Exception(msg);

Just saw "Burn After Reading" <MINOR SPOILERS>
Interesting film; I'm not sure if I liked it or not.
Incredible cast, but strange pacing. The story is all over the places and the characters interact in surprising ways. Those elements remind me a bit of "The Big Lebowski," to which BAR has already been compared. Well, let's be honest: BAR is not TBL, mostly because it doesn't have a protagonist you can root for (unlike TBL's The Dude).
Best performances are, IMHO, by John Malkovich as a wronged CIA spook, Brad Pitt as a dim-witted (and pompadoured) gym employee, and Richard Jenkins as Pitt's boss (whose sound advice isn't heeded). Clooney and Tilda Swinton were good but mostly underused.
Wow, I'm really tired, and this review sucks. For now, I'll give the film a B. It's uneven and has more jarring shifts in tone than the usual Coen Bros. movie. That said, the ending is better than that of last year's "No Country for Old Men."

They may not have jumped the shark...
...but they're trying on waterskis.
There's a full-fledged review of this in my head if the site wants it. Anyhow- if you're a fan of Intolerable Cruelty, then this is a flick for you. Otherwise, it's a disjointed group of selfish people acting like mental cases (instead of people) doing nothing much of interest with not much of a sense of humor- unless you consider verbal and emotional tics and porniture* funny. The CIA dudes even tell us directly that the plot meant nothing- spoonfeeding the audience the morals to the story sucks. But even this would be fine by me so long as the shit going on and/or the people onscreen were fun to watch. Not so much here.
I really want to know what they told the leads in terms of character and motivation.
"OK, get in there and act retarded. Not you, Malkovich. You just be yourself, stutter and say the word FUCKING the way you always do. aaaaand ACTION!"
Pitt revises his 13 Monkeys daffyness to no good effect, Clooney revists O Brother Where Art Thou, McDormand does her best Jack Nicholson as the Joker impersonation... and in keepoing with the humor angle two people get brutally murdered. I may have to start agreeing with Spike Lee regarding their lax, if not gratuitous, attitude toward murder. I'll think about it...
Things ain't all bad, though. It looked nice. And there were a couple of stirring moments which really only stood out because they didn't fit inside the rest of the story's mood...and they were like sore thumbs against a backdrop of lame character acting by people who are no longer actors themselves but characters we know too well. They just can't pull this sort of shit off anymore.
Waitress! Oceans 14, STAT!

I'm downgrading my grade from a "B" to a "B-."
Because I'd prolly give No Country a B and this wasn't as good as No Country. Giving it a "C" sounds harsh - it wasn't *that* bad. Many of the scenes work but several do not, and both Malkovich and Pitt are quite funny in BAR.
I didn't comment on Frances McDormand's performance because I'm not sure where I'd rank it on her resume. She was leagues better in Fargo and Almost Famous...or maybe it's just that her character (SPOILER here) is the meanest, most unredeemable in the entire film...and you can't relate to her AT ALL.
The dildo scene was very funny, if totally out of left field.

For a comedy of errors,
it was rather funny. Sections of the audience were laughing along with me, but others in the theater just didn't get most of it.
And who can resist believing that the totally incompetent CIA wouldn't do what it did by movie's end?

A local film critic said the humor in BAR is coated in arsenic
And not in a good way. So my question is does this aspect of the movie make it unwatchable? The Coens have always populated their comedies with idiots doing non-sensible things. But apparently this time the idiots are also unlikeable. Can anyone comment on this?

It's not that they're idiots...
It's that they're not human. Who the hell acts the way these people do? I could at least relate to the Raising Arizona characters- they were over-the-top, but not aliens. This time it was like they all made up weirdo personalities out of thin air and read the script. Might as well have had them dress themselves as their favorite cartoon character, too. Malkovitch gets a pass because he's a drunken CIA agent...and John Malkovitch...and who knows what the hell that type of person is like.
Otherwise the plot is simple enough- but the cinematic hooks, bells, whistles, and dialogue that should have fleshed out the thing just weren't there. Not for me anyhow.
Ah, well.. they've had some duds in the past with run of the mill stuff like Intolerable Cruelty, Hudsucker Proxy, and The Man Who Wasn't There... maybe the shark stunt will wait a few more tries.

I laughed my ass off.
Okay, I laughed my ass off at the second half of the movie - the first half was all setup. RidingFool's "comedy of errors" is dead on. And I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who liked the ending.
This is not a "serious" movie. There is no art motive here. It's just a black comedy about stupid people doing stupid things, and suffering the predictable results. Consider it Beavis & Butthead all grown up, living in Washington, DC.

I have to admit i found "Burn After Reading" incredibly entertaining. There are some bust your gut-laughoutloud moments in here (almost every scene Pitt is in has you giggling, and the final scene is absolutely brilliant), but the best part is how the Coens will turn it all on it's head and present you with a moment of unrelenting brutality moments after you were snickering like a schoolgirl..
The moral of the story is genius.
Not QUITE in the same league as "The Big Lebowski", but it's still a heckuva movie.

To the North of Fuerteventura, in the municipality of La Oliva, we find one of the most representative buildings of the canarian architecture. It is La Casa de los Coroneles, an essential sample of the military buildings of the 17TH century.
Surrounded by a beautiful and barren landscape, in the purest majorero style, La Casa de los Coroneles has transmuted its use in an exhibition hall. The inhabitants of the area have asked the government to be the permanent headquarters of a historical and ethnographic museum of Fuerteventura.
Declared a Historic-artistic monument and Well of Cultural Interest, the complex of La Oliva, was the official seat of the coronelato, were lived the Lords and soldiers who guided the future of the Canary Island enclave.
Built with materials of the island itself, stresses the use of the stone from Tindaya and its structure, which follows the model of the typical Tenerife architecture that we see in the houses of La Orotava or San Cristóbal de la Laguna in its conception: Numerous balconies and wood windows, immense coffered ceilings, spacious courtyards and a large group of halls and rooms.
La Casa de los Coroneles is flanked, on the sides, by two crenellated towers that bring us back to the reality of a control of the island of Fuerteventura, which was also inherited and spent little more than one century, until the dawn of the 18th century.
The building of La Oliva remains open to the public from Tuesday to Sunday and the admission is completely free.

Personal Time Gets Short Shrift
Last month, Angel Wilkes came down with a cold that should have kept her bedridden for several days.
But despite suffering from a sore throat, fever and nausea, the 28-year-old still answered customers' calls, assigned tasks to contract workers and handled administrative duties. She allowed herself only a single day of rest once she reached a point where she could hardly lift her head.
"If I don't work, I don't eat," says Ms. Wilkes, who started Children's Party Plus of Charlotte, N.C., in 2009 after her contract position at a nonprofit ended and wasn't renewed.
If you're starting a business on your own, taking time off for just about any reason could result in lost sales, customer-service problems or a slowdown in momentum. Many solo entrepreneurs, therefore, do whatever they can to keep plugging along—even if that means putting their health or other personal obligations to the wayside.
Victor W. Hwang, a small-business adviser and venture capitalist in Los Altos, Calif., says making your start-up a top priority is—at least to some extent—necessary for success. "You have to do it. You have to be willing to make huge sacrifices that a person with a normal job wouldn't have to do," he says.
Still, he warns that it's also important for entrepreneurs to avoid going overboard by putting their lives or relationships with loved ones at risk. "The goal in entrepreneurship is to not get so consumed that it eats you up," says Mr. Hwang, also author of "The Rainforest: The Secret to Building the Next Silicon Valley."
One tip he has for keeping relationships intact while building a business is to sit down with close family and friends early on and let them know what your schedule is likely to entail.
"Make sure everyone's expectations are clear about what it's going to take," he says. "You need to put everything on the table."
Entrepreneurs also may want to hold off on efforts to initiate new relationships while starting a business. Tom Popomaronis says he would like a girlfriend, but he won't try to spark a romance until his online auction company, Auctionopia.com, is more established.
"It takes time to make a relationship work," Mr. Popomaronis says, and that's something he has little of to spare these days.
The 25-year-old, who began building his business after graduating from college in 2008, says he also has had to set aside several other personal goals to keep the momentum for his start-up going strong.
For example, last summer he skipped a friend's wedding because it took place on a day when he had planned to deploy a major change to his company's website. He says five technology professionals, who are now his business partners, were counting on him to oversee the project.

You Are Only as Good as Your Vendor
"I couldn't justify leaving," says Mr. Popomaronis, who's based in Phoenix, Md.
Patricia Brett, founder of an online swimwear brand for women with breast cancer, says she recently came down with a bout of food poisoning but refused to cancel a phone meeting with a potential investor she had met in person a week earlier.
"I had to strike while the iron was hot," says Ms. Brett, 48, who named her start-up Veronica Brett after an aunt who died of breast cancer in 1975. She launched it in May 2010, just when a temporary stint with an architecture firm came to an end.
"When you've engaged someone and have their attention on your business, you can't put them off," she says.
Keep in mind that making personal sacrifices for a start-up can potentially do more harm than good. For instance, if you're feeling depressed or grumpy because you've stopped socializing with friends, you might be less inclined to respond to a difficult customer with poise.
"When you're sick, you don't always make the most rational decisions," says Ms. Wilkes, the party planner. "Sometimes you have to step back and say 'I need a break.' "
George Burke says his Long Branch, N.J.-based online book-lending business, BookSwim.com, suffered when he stopped exercising regularly in order to focus on building it. The more out of shape he became, the less he was able to concentrate and feel good about what he was doing, he says.
After putting on 30 pounds, Mr. Burke, who started the business in 2006 following a layoff from a technology firm, says he went back to spending one hour a day at a gym, and hasn't stopped since.
Today, BookSwim.com is profitable and the 30-year-old is now working on a second start-up.
"When you make time for yourself to be healthy, your business will thrive," he says. "It's not a sacrifice. It's a shift in attitude."

Mario Lopez & Ali Landry
It was less than 24 hours before her April 24 nuptials with former Saved by the Bell heartthrob Mario Lopez, but actress Ali Landry was not the least bit flustered. "You are the calmest bride I've ever met!" her friend Tam Bui recalls telling the star of UPN's Eve.
Why no jitters? "I'm here to enjoy myself," said Landry, as she welcomed the 50 guests she and Lopez, her beau of six years, had flown in to the exclusive Las Alamandas resort outside Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. "My closest friends and family are here. It's all planned. I'm ready to go." And ready to dazzle. "When Mario first saw her walking down the aisle" at the 6 p. m. Catholic ceremony, says Bui, "she took his breath away" in her Vera Wang gown.
At the reception guests enjoyed yellow wedding cake with strawberries, and Landry delighted in introducing Lopez as her husband. "She just loved saying it," says Bui. The couple, both 30, stayed until the last guest left—at 5 a.m. After a continental breakfast buffet on Monday, the newlyweds departed on their honeymoon to parts unknown. "They were meant for each other," says Bui. "They're very calm together."
Jack Welch & Suzy Wetlaufer
At noon on April 24, retired General Electric CEO Jack Welch, 68, exchanged vows with former Harvard Business Review editor Suzy Wetlaufer, 44, turning their much-talked-about winter-spring romance into a permanent merger. For the 50 minute ceremony at Boston's historic Park Street Church, Wetlaufer donned a café-au-lait-colored gown designed by Elie Saab. "Jack was just awestruck," says Elin Spring, Wetlaufer's sister. "They clutched each other's hands and were swinging them back and forth. It really was like young love—except they were older."
And more settled. After the ceremony the newlyweds—this is a third marriage for him, a second for her—repaired to the 26,000-sq.-ft. home on fashionable Beacon Street that they share with Wetlaufer's children, who range in age from 9 to 15. There, they dined on sirloin and salmon with their 90 guests—among them Matt Lauer and various business luminaries. After honeymooning in an undisclosed sunny spot, the couple, who met in October 2001 when she interviewed him for her magazine, will resume cowriting Winning, the business primer they sold to Random House for $4 million. "It's a great life," says a giddy Welch. "I loved what I did at GE—but I don't miss it for a minute."

WASHINGTON - The largest-ever attempted slave escape took place April 15, 1848. Many believe the "Escape on the Pearl" was one of the main reasons the slave trade was abolished in the nation's capital.
But despite the event's importance, it's a story many don't know about.
About 70 slaves, including Mary and Emily Edmondson and their four older brothers, were part of the group that boarded a schooner called "The Pearl," hoping to sail to freedom.
Their father Paul was a free man, but their mother Amelia was a slave -- which meant her children were born slaves.
Deeply religious, the Edmonsons prayed for a successful escape knowing that it was all in God's hands.
"You don't realize that there's a plan set for you. You just go along in life," said Emily's great granddaughter Imogene Gilbert. "In fact, you don't think about what's going to happen, what you're going to do. You just go on. If it's God's will you go on the right path."
A Twist of Fate
The plan was for "The Pearl" to sail down the Potomac River up the Chesapeake Bay and on to a new life.
"So they waited, and waited and waited for wind and it took a while and it set them back. Finally with the sun coming up, they were only in Alexandria, Va.," explained Mary Kay Ricks, author of Escape on the Pearl.
"There was no wind, so they waited, and waited and waited, and a good wind came and took them down the river," she continued. "Unfortunately, that wind became fierce. So they had to drop their anchor in Maryland."
There, the slaves were caught -- right where the Potomac and Chesapeake Bay meet -- and everyone on the ship was taken back to Washington.
"The slaves were marched two by two, the men in chains, up to the jail and everyone watched," Ricks continued. "Not just the white anti-abolitionist people, but some of the relatives of the people who were captured."
WEB EXTRA: Listen as Floyd Robinson, member of Asbury UMC, sings the old negro spiritual 'Steal Away to Jesus.'
But Mary and Emily remained faithful.
"Even upon being captured, they walked proudly with their heads up and singing spirituals," added Stephan Gilbert, another descendant of Emily. "That's nothing but faith. And those that have strong faith know the peace that comes with it."
The Edmondsons were eventually sold to a slave trader in Alexandria, Va. The former slave pen that Mary and Emily were housed in now stands just 30 feet away from a statue honoring them.
After their capture, the six Edmondson siblings were sent to New Orleans.
Because they were attractive, Mary and Emily were going to be sold as sex slaves. But yellow fever broke out they were brought back to the Washington area because of their value.
Fighting for Freedom
Throughout the ordeal, Amelia and Paul worked with members of the Underground Railroad to come up with the money to free their children.
"The Underground Railroad was really not a physical railroad, but a movement of individuals starting with the slaves themselves who yearned to and desired to be free," said A.G. Miller, religion professor at Oberlin College.
Their parents also reached out to the Christian community. Lonise Robinson, historian of Asbury United Methodist Church shared part of that letter with CBN News. It was written by Pastor Matthew A. Turner.
"The case of these girls is the one that claims the sympathies of the benevolent, and I most earnestly pray that the evidence of their friends may be crowned with success in securing their freedom," he wrote.
Those words led renowned minister and abolitionist Henry Ward Beecher to New York's Tabernacle Broadway Church where he preached a fiery sermon that finished raising the necessary funds.
"He said to people, 'Think as if they were your daughters. Think as if they were going to be taken away, these two young Methodist daughters,'" Ricks said.
"And then he pointed to their father, Paul Edmonson who had come up from Maryland and said, 'Here is their father,'" he continued. "'Think as if you were in his place,' and it was a magnificent evening."
Once they were free, the Edmonson sisters joined the anti-slave circuit with the likes of Frederick Douglass.
Harriett Beecher Stowe depicted their journey in her book, A Key to Uncle Tom's Cabin.
Stowe sent Mary and Emily to Oberlin, Ohio -- an important stop on the Underground Railroad.
"When blacks came into this community they felt this was a safe haven," Miller explained. "It was never easy. They had to struggle like everyone else to try to feed themselves, but they didn't have to stand in fear of being turned in."
WEB EXTRA: Watch an interview with Dr. Miller to learn more about the history of Oberlin, Ohio.
Continuing On
Mary died of tuberculosis in Oberlin at the age of 21.
Heartbroken, Emily returned to Washington and attended the Normal School for Colored Girls to become a teacher.
Emily and Douglass became very good friends and lived near each other in what is now known as Anacostia.
Eventually all of the Edmonson children were freed. In fact, one brother ended up moving to Australia.
"I guess people have stories and they trace their roots and their family is from another state, another country," Stephan said.
"But to have lived in the same place where they lived and walk the same streets that they walked, there's something touching and special," he said.
Emily died in 1895.
Members of the family are credited with starting two churches in Washington that still exist today, John Wesley A.M.E. and Asbury United Methodist Church.

At the Medicine Grand Rounds held in March 1997, Dr Arthur Barsky discussed
the management of multiple somatic complaints in a 37-year-old man who is
self-employed.1 Mr H began to experience multiple
physical complaints during adolescence. Since that time he has visited doctors
frequently for a wide variety of symptoms accompanied by intense anxiety and,
at times, mild depression. His doctors, including Dr Y, a medical resident,
felt the complaints were primarily psychosomatic in origin, and multiple medical
evaluations failed to reveal significant organic findings. Dr Barsky discussed
the epidemiology and mechanisms of symptom formation in patients like Mr H,
focusing on "care, rather than cure," and outlining an approach to management
that frequently proves worthwhile to the patient and clinician. We asked the
patient and his doctor to comment on the year that has passed.

Depending on who you want to use as "experts" there are many different "types" of koi. The most common varieties of koi that you see in the hobby (i.e., affordable fish priced less than $100) in the United States are:
Kohaku — red and white
Sanke — This koi variety is comprised of three colors: red, white and black. For all intent and purposes, this variety is the same as showa. In the hobby both are pretty much lumped together and called "tri-color" koi.
Ohgon — These are metallic fish that have reflective scales. They come in different colors, but the most common are ohgon (gold), yamabuki ohgon (yellow) and gin (platinum or silver).
Taisho Sanke — This is a sanke with a solid red "cap" on the top of the head.
Asagi — This variety has metallic blue scales along the dorsal portion of the body.
Tancho — This can be any kind or color of fish, but it has a very distinct red "cap" on top of the head.
Bekko — These koi have black markings (and only black markings) on any solid-color fish. Utsuri are koi that are black fish with one other color marking. For koi fanatics there is a difference in these fish. For most hobbyists it is similar to arguing whether a zebra is a black animal with white stripes or a white animal with black stripes.
Butterfly — In the U.S. we also have butterfly koi, which just means that they have long fins. These are very popular in the U.S. hobby, but they are looked upon with real scorn by serious koi fanciers.
For serious koi fanatics there are many more varieties of koi, and the prices can be in the thousands of dollars for a single fish.

Important Information: When you order your $1 Credit Report & FICO® Score, you will begin your 7-day trial membership in Experian CreditWorksSM. If you don't cancel your membership within the 7-day trial period**, you will be billed $21.95 for each month that you continue your membership. You may cancel your trial membership any time within the trial period without charge.
Credit score calculated based on FICO® Score 8 model. Your lender or insurer may use a different FICO Score than FICO Score 8, or another type of credit score altogether. Learn More.
What is a Credit Report? Your personal credit report contains details about your identity and displays certain financial behaviors. This set of data is sometimes also referred to as a credit file or a credit history. Experian collects and organizes data from creditors, lenders and public records. We make your credit report available to your current and prospective creditors, employers, and others permitted by law, which may help you access credit.
What can I find in my credit report?
Accounts in your credit report can include credit cards, retail credit cards, real estate loans, installment loans - such as auto loans, and accounts in collections. Your creditors report different information to the credit bureaus and may also provide their contact information to display within your credit report. Your account mix generally gives potential creditors an idea of how you use credit from year to year.
View the types of information reported on credit reports
Learn how to read a credit report
Hard inquiries appear on your credit report as a result of your applications for credit or loans, and are visible on your credit report for 24 months. However, they only impact your FICO Score for the first 12 months. These types of inquiries may represent additional debt that doesn't yet show up as an account on your credit report - when that's the case, the potential new debt can be an indicator of recent risk. Accordingly, a recent inquiry can have a small impact on your credit scores.
Soft inquiries don't impact lending decisions or credit scores. They are only visible to you, not to others (including potential creditors). Soft inquiries include checking your own credit report, pre-approved offers of credit, inquiries made for employment or insurance purposes, or those made by your existing lenders to review currently active accounts.
Public Records are financial accounts in your credit report attributed to legal actions such as bankruptcies, tax liens, and court judgments. They do not include information like arrests, misdemeanors, or other non-financial situations. Having this type of record appear on your credit report usually negatively impacts your credit scores.
How often is my Experian credit report updated? In general, creditors send information to the credit reporting agencies on a monthly basis, but the day of the month that the organization sends its updates varies. Different creditors submit information throughout the month, which then shows on your credit report.
** The credit monitoring benefit may only be available for 5 days during your trial period since enrollment can take up to 48 hours. You may cancel your trial membership any time during your first 7 days without charge.

Can you "top up" the magazine on a model 94 after chambering the first round? I know it I can do this on all I own or have owned Marlins (1894, 1895 & 336) but my M94 AE SRC Trapper (pre safety) doesn't let me add additional rounds to the magazine after you cycle the first round into the chamber. While the gun is a bit older not having any safety it is in as new condition and has probably less than 50 rounds through it.
Thanks and be safe

Wednesday, 2 January 2013
From the ABC. Be it noted that these were not just any Muslims; this party included the Capo dei Capi of all Muslims in Australia, the Mufti himself.
'Australian Muslim Cleric Meets Hamas Leader'
'Australia's most senior Muslim cleric has met the leader of the Hamas government [sic: the Hamas jihad gang boss - CM] during a visit to the Gaza Strip.
That is, a visit to Jihad Fortress and Military Base Gaza. - CM
'The Mufti of Australia, Dr Ibrahim Abu Mohammed, is leading a delegation of Australian Muslim scholars to Gaza.
'Australian Muslim scholars'. 'Scholars'. Hmmm. I wonder whether I can find out exactly how many of them there were, and what their names are, and which mosques or Islamic centres - or 'Islamic studies' centres within our universities - they frequent? I hope that ASIO and the AFP have a list of their names, and are keeping an eye on them, or will be keeping an eye on them henceforward; and that they are going to share that list, and whatever dossier they may have upon them, with Mossad and Shin Bet.
For more on 'Dr' Ibrahim Abu Mohammed, Mufti of the Muslims in Australia, see a previous item that appeared in this blog in September 2011.
From that posting, for those who don't have time to click on the link, a bit of background on the Mufti: he is an Egyptian-born Muslim, has lived in Australia for more than 10 years yet still speaks no English and, after his elevation to the position of Mufti, gave interviews to the press through an interpreter. His 'university' education in Islam was at Al Azhar; his thesis was 'in relation to how Islam makes peace in practice'; and he taught Islamic studies from 1988 to 1991 in Ajman College, Al-Ayn University, Abu Dhabi, then from 1991 to 1996 taught 'postgraduate studies in Islam at Leaders College under the Defence Ministry of Abu Dhabi'. I hope that ASIO are doing due diligence to find out whether he has Muslim Brotherhood connections. But now, back to our news story. - CM
'Local television has shown pictures of Dr Mohammed meeting with Hamas's political leader, Gaza's prime minister Ismail Haniyeh, on December 26.
"We came here in order to learn from Gaza...to learn steadfastness, sacrifice, and the defence of one's rights from them", Dr Mohammed said
Speaking as an Australian, I do not feel happy about the idea of Australian Muslims going to Gaza to 'learn' from Hamas. What kind of 'lessons' about the conduct of Jihad - propaganda jihad, and 'hot' combat jihad, and the concoction of weaponry, are they going to be bringing home to teach in the mosques and Islamic schools here, behind closed doors, when they think the dirty Infidels are not listening? I wonder, did this delegation of Aussie-passport-holding Muslims visit the bomb-making factories and the arsenals? Did they go to the launch sites from which rockets were fired, day after day, week after week, at Jewish civilians within Israel? - CM
'in remarks translated by Memri TV.
And that is probably the most significant and interesting part of this report. It tells us that somebody on the team at Australia's ABC, or elsewhere, has 'discovered' MEMRI, and is learning to make use of it, and trusts it enough to cite it as a source in a news story published on an official website.
By all means, ABC journalists, and all other non-Muslim journalists working for non-Muslim news outlets in non-Muslim countries: read MEMRI. Read, read, read. Search the archives. Watch the video clips, with the subtitles. See the Muslim 'clerics', and other Muslim pundits, hysterically shrieking and gesticulating, and the ecstatic mobs similarly shrieking - or roaring 'allahu akhbar' - and be reminded of old newsreel footage of Herr Hitler in his rise to power, and of Nuremberg Rallies. When the hair rises up on the back of your neck...trust your instinct that is telling you, 'These people, these Muslims, whether ranting and raging in beards and robes or besuited and slyly hissing with oily smiles, are dangerous'. Read the translations of what appears daily in the media of assorted Muslim countries and communities and organisations, world-wide. Read, learn, mark and inwardly digest. Begin to get a handle on the meaning and menace of Islam, as revealed by the stuff that comes out of their own mouths, ad infinitum. - CM
'The military wing of Hamas is listed as a proscribed terrorist organisation by the Australian Government.
And do people really believe that someone like Ismail Haniyeh knows nothing about, and has nothing to do with nor any control over what that 'military wing' does? I am very tired of this 'military wing' business. If the jihad outfit Hamas has a 'military wing' then that military wing is part of Hamas, and the whole thing, not just the hand holding the rocket launcher or the kalashnikov, ought to be banned. No member of Hamas - of any 'wing' of Hamas - should be permitted to set foot within a free non-Muslim country. And those - currently resident in Australia - who support and visit with Hamas and express admiration of its activities and its goals (see its charter, steeped in genocidal Islamically-orthodox Jew-hatred, to get an idea of what Hamas is all about) should be viewed with great distrust. Myself, I would be happy to see the Mufti stripped of his Australian citizenship and deported to the Islamic Egypt which produced him and from whence he came. Let him enjoy the sharia hellhole that the Muslim Brotherhood is well on the way to creating there. - CM
'The Department of Foreign Affairs says it is up to the individuals in the delegation to make sure they do not breach Australian laws.'
Understatement of the year.
These people have gone to Gaza to hobnob with and 'learn from' known genocidal Jew-haters who have openly and repeatedly stated their intention of destroying the Jewish state of Israel. I see no reason whatever why any of them should be permitted to re-enter Australia. In a sane world, they would not be permitted to re-enter. But given that that is too much to hope for right now, in the meantime, at the very least, ASIO and the Australian Federal Police should be examining most minutely all their antecedents, their associations, and in particular the circumstances under which they gained either residency in or citizenship of Australia; and I would advise both those agencies to confer with Mossad and the Shin Bet, who may well know more about some of these Muslim 'scholars' - or be in a better position to find out - than we do. - CM

KALAMAZOO, MI -- All plays, much like all lives, arguably, are about relationships, and their success depends upon how convincingly the actors convey those relationships on stage. And the stakes are that much higher in a semi-autobiographical family drama such as Neil Simon's "Broadway Bound," the latest mainstage offering at The Civic.
The play is the final chapter in Simon's Eugene trilogy, following "Brighton Beach Memoirs," presented last season at The Civic with several of the same actors, and "Biloxi Blues."
Set in post World War II Brooklyn, the action takes place entirely in the Jerome family home with the nearly grown sons trying to break into radio comedy writing while their parents' marriage is crumbling and their Russian Jewish immigrant grandfather provides both wisdom and comic relief through his decidedly Socialist point of view.
He sets the tone for the family dynamic when he says, "I don't trust affection. Sometimes people give it to you instead of the truth."
The Civic's two-and-a-half-hour long production shines when the actors on stage connect deeply with each other, which happens more than half the time. Thankfully, Director Ben Zylman cast the strongest actors in the central parts, so the weaker moments detract little from the overall effect.
If You Go"Broadway Bound"
When: 8 p.m., April 5-6, 12-13, 19-20; 7:30 p.m. April 11; 2 p.m. April 14.
Where: Kalamazoo Civic Theatre
Cost: $23-$12
Contact: 269-343-1313
On the Web: kazoocivic.com
Art Nemitz has wonderful comedic timing and deadpan facial expressions as the unsentimental yet warm grandfather, Ben. Narrator and youngest son Eugene is soulful and funny as played by Nikolas Spayne; and Anne Fackler reaches a surprising depth of emotion as the reserved and hard working mother, Kate. When these actors are on stage together they create magic.
The other cast members have their moments as well, but with some emotional missteps. Hal Hobson's Jack is too restrained; Kitty Kachniewicz's emotionality as Blanche reads, at times, as superficial and over-rehearsed; and though Landon Cally overplays Stanley's anxiety with a bit too much moderate yelling in scenes with Spayne, his climactic scene of righteous indignation with Hobson is one of the show's triumphs.
The play provides a nice balance of levity and high emotional valence, though the first act is over written and the audience must be patient to receive the sentimental payoff of the second act.
Visually the show is spot on. From Zylman's lively blocking to AnnMarie Miller's subtle lights that evoke tonal shifts to David Khyne's set like a dollhouse opened from the side, it's an intimate peek into the Jerome family home that feels quite authentic thanks to the keen technical elements.
Ultimately, the show's strengths compensate for its weaknesses. The Civic's "Broadway Bound" is both touching and amusing, because despite its flaws, the central relationships ring true.

As one of the trio of top scenic views in Japan (the other two are Matsushima and Miyajima), Amanohashidate has a lot to live up to. The "bridge" is actually a 3.6km ribbon of white sand and pine trees slinking its way between the touristy villages of Monju and Fuchū across the bay. On Mount Nariai above Fuchū, the splendidly atmospheric Nariai-ji is one of the 33 temples on the Saigoku Kannon pilgrimage route, while closer to the summit there is a fantastic view of the bay and coast as far away as the Noto-hantō, some 500km northeast. East along the Tango-hantō lies the picturesque fishing hamlet of Ine, while across the bay in Monju is another attractive wooden temple, Chion-ji, standing on the brink of the sandbar – a lovely area for a quiet stroll or cycle ride, or simply lazing on the beach.

WARREN - Savannah Jackson remembers walking into the father-daughter dance with her father Marcus Jackson Sr., how her little sister went with her, and how their dad took them to Burger King afterward.
Savannah's mother, Emily Cononico, remembers how excited Jackson was, dressed up in his suit, to take his daughters to their first-ever school dance at Lincoln K-8 School.
"He was very, very excited. He really, really enjoyed taking them to their first dance," Cononico, of Lake County, said. "He called them his little princesses."
Article Video
Emily Cononico and her children talk about the late Marcus Jackson.
A few days later, on Feb. 27, 2011, Jackson was struck by a driver while walking along West Market Street. He died after being on life support for nine days.
One year later, Cononico, her and Jackson's eight children and stepchildren and about 15 other friends and family members gathered Sunday at Oakwood Cemetery to remember Jackson and to see the meticulously detailed gravestone placed there.
"He was my backbone," said Cononico, who has failing kidneys. "With all my health problems, he was always there, holding everything together."

Cononico was Jackson's fiancee and partner of 18 years. She plans to buried next to him.
Everyone wore something purple, from sneakers to sweaters, because it was Jackson's favorite color, and recalled what made him special.
Cononico said she's comforted that Jackson's organs helped save five people's lives, including a heart-transplant patient. She said Jackson worked as long as 16-hour days at Polychem Dispersions in Middlefield as a mill worker.
Fact Box
Seeking info
Police have asked anyone with information in the Feb. 27, 2011, car accident that killed Marcus Jackson Sr., to please call Warren police Detective Mike Stabile at 330-841-2663.
A co-worker of Jackson's, Randy McAvoy said Jackson was a model husband, co-worker and friend. A tear ran from the corner of his eye as he talked about how he and Jackson made the drive from their then-Newton Falls homes to Middlefield.
He said they worked all day together, spent two hours in the car every day and met up often outside of work.
"He was always there," McAvoy said. "I had a brother that passed away years ago and he was right there for me. He literally was like another brother."
His children remembered different things about him. Marcus Jackson Jr., 13, recalled wrestling matches and playing Madden football video games with him. Majestic, 14, recalled how her dad loved hanging out with her and her siblings and that his specialty cuisine was making breakfast for dinner. They also remembered how excited he was to become a grandfather.
Jackson died one month before his first grandchild, Aaliyah, was born to his eldest stepdaughter, Mirah, 18.
"I didn't want to think about it too much because I didn't want to stress out too much at the end," of the pregnancy, Mirah said. "He would have liked her a lot. I know he would have. He was excited to be a grandpa."
Cononico said there is one major reason the family is unable to fully move on: The yearlong police investigation has turned up no charges.
Warren Detective Mike Stabile said Friday the case is ongoing but independent witnesses have been reluctant to come forward, which has stalled the investigation. He said police have a suspect in mind, but do not have enough evidence to charge him. He said the man was in the car with two others, but none of their stories matches up, leaving prosecutors with no hard evidence to charge the driver with.
"There's a problem with the three witnesses giving different accounts," Stabile said. "It's kind of a sticking point with the prosecutor's office. We need someone else to come forward, and we do believe there were more than just the three witnesses. It's frustrating."
Stabile also said investigators believe the driver struck Jackson accidentally.
Cononico said Jackson and her family deserve closure.
"In my opinion, it would put Marcus to rest," she said. "Aside from that, what kind of example is our judicial system setting for our youth and anyone that gets behind the wheel? That it's OK for someone to drink and drive and take someone's life? That it doesn't mean anything? I don't agree with that at all."
The death was the second tragedy that happened to the family. Jackson's brother, Marvin Chaney was gunned down in April 2009 by Eugene Henderson, who fired 28 rounds from an AK-47 assault rifle into a southeast side home. Also killed was 11-year-old Lloyd McCoy Jr. Henderson was sentenced to life in prison without parole. Eugene Cumberbatch, also convicted in the connection with the murder, is serving 38 years to life in prison.
After Jackson's death, Cononico said she fell into a tailspin. She spent the majority of her time at the police station and the library searching for ways to find justice, and when she wasn't there, she was at the cemetery.
"I moved us out of Trumbull County because I used to live on Charles Street and everyday we were coming here," she said. "Then I realized it wasn't healthy emotionally for me and the kids. Because I was spending so much time here, to the library to the police department, I wasn't focusing on being a mother and learning how to live again without Marcus."
The move to Lake County made a world of difference, she said. Cononico said she was able to get back on her feet and that the kids' grades dramatically improved.
She also said counseling sessions have helped.
"We're all in counseling," she said. "It's going to be a long process for us. It's just hard."
The stone, designed by Cononico, was made from imported marble, with a striking etching of Marcus Jackson and Cononico on the front, and Jackson's handprints on the back. Cononico said they made a mold of Jackson's hands while he was on life support at St. Elizabeth Health Center in Youngstown, and were able to use that to engrave in the marble. A replica of Jackson's tattoo of a scroll with a quote by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is engraved on the back of the headstone.
The quote reads: "Press on and keep pressing. If you can't fly, run; If you can't run, walk; If you can't walk, crawl. By all means, keep pressing forward."

2 Henrico delegates offer different plans for reducing gun violence
Two Henrico delegates agree measures need to be taken to lessen gun violence, but offer different approaches to regulation.
Del. Joseph Morrissey, D-Henrico, is focusing on a bill that would ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines that hold 20 or more rounds.
HB 2207 would make the import, sale, barter and transfer of assault firearms a Class 6 felony, and the import, sale, barter and transfer of high-capacity magazines a Class 1 misdemeanor, respectively. Law enforcement officers and military personnel would be exempt from this legislation.
"To me it's an absolute no-brainer to ban these assault weapons," said Morrissey, who has served as a delegate since 2008.
The federal ban on assault weapons expired in 2004, and now Congress is considering reintroducing this legislation in the wake of recent mass shootings.
President Obama and Vice President Biden spoke on Wednesday encouraging Congress to pass legislation to help reduce gun violence including: stronger background checks, bans on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, increased safety measures at schools and greater access to mental health services.
"I think Virginia ought to act now," Morrissey said. "There is no use, legitimate use, for these automatic rifles and high capacity magazines, save causing mass carnage and destruction."
The gunmen used these weapons and magazines in the mass shootings at Virginia Tech, Aurora, Colo. and Newtown, Conn.
"There is no place for these weapons except for perhaps on the battlefield," Morrissey said.
These guns are not used for sport, for target practice or for defending yourself, he said.
"A blind person, pointed anywhere near it, could hit a target with 100 shots," he said.
Del. John O'Bannon, R-Henrico, does not believe that the best route for reducing gun violence is through changing the current laws regulating firearms, but instead the focus should be on offering more help to people with mental illness.
"Virginia's already had one terrible disaster in a school at Virginia Tech," he said, "and we actually learned a lot from that. We responded and did some things to try to improve the way we handle folks who have mental heath issues, mental illness. And I really think we have a lot more opportunity to make things safer and reduce the chance of that happening in that venue."
Gov. Bob McDonnell put together a school safety task force with a group focusing on education and another focusing on mental health. O'Bannon is a member of the mental health portion of the task force under Bill Hazel, Virginia secretary of health and human resources. The group is meeting this afternoon.
HB 2207 was assigned to the House Militia, Police and Public Safety subcommittee #1, which was set to meet Jan. 17.

Former first lady Barbara Bush was hospitalized in Houston, Texas, Tuesday after suffering pain during the week, according to reports.
Family spokesman Jim McGrath told the Associated Press that Mrs. Bush, 83, went to Methodist Hospital and underwent tests, which came out negative. The specifics of the tests were not revealed, but she'd been having stomach pains for several days.
On Good Morning America Wednesday, Mrs. Bush's daughter-in-law, Laura Bush, said, "She's doing great."
The current first lady also said she was in touch with the elder Mrs. Bush. "George and I talked to both President Bush and Barbara Bush last night while they were in the hospital and they were both doing very well then," she said.
She added that the White House doctor spoke to Mrs. Bush's doctor "and she's doing very well and so we're really, really thankful."
McGrath told The Houston Chronicle that Mrs. Bush was expected to be released Wednesday.

Darrah Coat
Buy Now
A warm, casual coat for fall and winter's colder days. With a clean design and above the knee cut, the Darrah has a cosmopolitan look with mountain influenced styling. Insulated with Arc'teryx Coreloft™ synthetic insulation, the coat is warm without looking bulky. The water repellent Neilsa™ polyester/cotton blend fabric resists snow and light rain, and has a soft, cottony hand with a subtle texture. A full coverage insulated hood provides extra protection and warmth, two zippered outside pockets hold essentials and warm the hands, and a zippered internal pocket secures important items.
Knowing that insulated coats can be restrictive, Arc'teryx builds in freedom to move. The Coreloft™ insulation is body mapped. This puts more insulation where it's needed, less where it isn't, resulting in better performance, less restriction and more flattering fit. Articulation in the sleeves combines with underarm gussets to provide a more complete range of motion in the arms.
Developed by Arc'teryx, Coreloft™ is a synthetic insulation made of mixed size staple fibres that are crimped to trap air and retain warmth. Lightweight, breathable, and thermally efficient, this 100% polyester insulation is very compressible and has excellent loft retention. Coreloft™ is easy to care for and will retain its warmth even if it gets wet.
