From Britney to Cher: 12 Pop Icons Who Made 'Will + Grace' Can't-Miss TV
The groundbreaking show aired its final episode exactly 10 years ago.
The groundbreaking show aired its final episode exactly 10 years ago.
'wtf is mdna', 'good luck with bookin that stage u speak of', and more of the tweets that have defined us as a generation.
It's rare, but there are times when Oscars style comes as a complete surprise.
"There's literally been red carpets where I think, this is my Cher moment," Zendaya told the pop icon.
Lady Gaga would like all of her Instagram followers to know that Cher not only has her phone number, but she's very much using it.
"Never thought I'd say [this]..." began Cher's tweet about Donald Trump.
The icon got super candid about pop music, "I Got You Babe," and future touring plans.
If you were all about Andy Cohen and his fake mullet lip syncing their way through "Working for the Weekend," then get ready for a second dose of expressive body movements.
Cher is literally back.
Jacobs shared a sneak peek of his Fall/Winter 2015 campaign, featuring the pop icon, on Instagram.

Marie writes: Not too long ago, Monaco's Oceanographic Museum held an exhibition combining contemporary art and science, in the shape of a huge installation by renowned Franco-Chinese artist Huang Yong Ping, in addition to a selection of films, interviews and a ballet of Aurelia jellyfish.The sculpture was inspired by the sea, and reflects upon maritime catastrophes caused by Man. Huang Yong Ping chose the name "Wu Zei"because it represents far more than just a giant octopus. By naming his installation "Wu Zei," Huang added ambiguity to the work. 'Wu Zei' is Chinese for cuttlefish, but the ideogram 'Wu' is also the color black - while 'Zei' conveys the idea of spoiling, corrupting or betraying. Huang Yong Ping was playing with the double meaning of marine ink and black tide, and also on corruption and renewal. By drawing attention to the dangers facing the Mediterranean, the exhibition aimed to amaze the public, while raising their awareness and encouraging them to take action to protect the sea.
Marie writes: Kudos to fellow art buddy Siri Arnet for sharing the following; a truly unique hotel just outside Nairobi, Kenya: welcome to Giraffe Manor.

Jeg skal endre på skrift-type og størrelse når jeg lager nytt diagram (er inne på "avansert tilpasningsvalg". Rubrikkene for skrift-type, størrelse, linje mellom boksene og ektefeller responderer ikke. Har tidvis hatt problemer med dette siste tiden, da jeg bruker disse funksjonene relativt ofte.
Mvh. Kari Åshild Kjølen.
Also changed some minor configurations.
I reinstalled FTB but the problem remains.
What happened? How to "Save" a Project?
I've seen similar issues on the Forum which had not been resolved so I hope that there's a solution to this after all.
I started fresh after my laptop had been stolen, downloading and installing the latest version of FTB 8 over the weekend. I'm on the latest version of Windows 7 SP 1 (no updates outstanding). When syncing my changes everything seems OK until it reaches 99% where it sits - even when left overnight in the hope that it's just slow.
Ironically it sends out notifications of deceased updates from my side to all members every time I try the sync but it does not update the site accordingly!
Any ideas / info / suggestions?
Thanks guys...
I reinstalled Family Tree Builder and sync'ed with my website. Everything looks okay, except the photos.
When sync'ed, only the photo meta-data is restored; when I try to open it, I get, "failed to load photo". However, if I go to the menu 'Photos/Restore photos from family site' and enter, it will download the photo for ONLY the person I'm looking at.
As I have hundreds of photos, this is extremely time-consuming and irritating.
Is there a method that I can to a restore of all photos at the same time?
New Brunswick, Canada
I'm having some kind of sync problems.
I was using FTB 7, but I was starting to receive constant errors "Sync reviision mismatch" and changes would not sync between PC and website.
I tried upgrading to FTB 8, still no change, sync problems persist.
I also tried deleting the entire project locally, and restoring from website. The restore works fine, but when it's done it starts refusing to sync again.Mostly the status is "sync pending", but if I forcibly close everything down to logging out from the computer and back in again, I can initiate a sync, but again with "sync revision mismatch".
I tried contacting support a few days back but have not yet received any response. Any further ideas on what to do?
Best regards
Mikael R.
It is very annoying
I decided to download and try the FTB to generate a list report as I've had issues with the online reports not generating properly.
First let me say I do all my work online, I only wanted to use FTB for the reports I could generate. When I first installed and synced it to my online family tree, the report was great, just how I wanted it but then I did updates to my "online site" and tried syncing with the program and got nowhere, it wouldn't sync - as a matter of fact I was pretty scared it would sync information from the program (outdated information) "up" to my online site and mess up all the new information I had imputed - that's how not-very-confident I was about the FTB program.
I decided that maybe I needed to completely uninstall it and install the new version. When I installed the new version I thought I was easily going to be able to sync to my online site but (maybe operator error), I was prompted to start a new tree by adding individuals and appeared not to be able to connect to my online site? (hope I'm explaining this good enough). So now I have uninstalled the program again and don't seem to have much faith in it.
As a matter of fact, I am once again, right at this minute trying to generate another multiple page chart with the onine utility and it's been in progress a Long time and nothing yet?
Can someone tell me - is the FTB designed to be used as the default research tool and to upload discovered information to your online site? If not, can someone tell me what I am doing wrong (yes, I've read and re-read the manual).
Also, is it possible (if I do try the FTB again) when syncing for the program information (which in my case is outdated since I do my work online) to overwrite all my current information on my online site?
Confusing I know sorry.
Two more questions.
1/ PerhapsI have never seenfunctional verificationupdatesfromFTB(help/find update).
2/ And ToDo-Tasks pleas; this featureI reallymiss.
Thaks R. Tesař
Any hints how to solve it or it's a bug?
Where can I finda list of changesbetween different versions program in FTB program folder.
How can I search all the messages in this forum for those I wrote?
Currently, and I dont mean this in a bad way - but the Design GUI is back from software styles of 1990's
I do prefer the design of the online version and Kudos for that ...
Thanks in advance!
Is there a simple way to view and remove duplicates after merging one tree with about 100 names to a large trees with over a thousand names?
I am using your tools since years, and quite satisfied by it !
However, each time I got some troubles, especially with the new v8 update, and tried to concact the french support, nobody is never answering me.
Sometimes, the magical answer "Your bug has been corrected in the new update, please install it" is send by an "Alexandra" and unfortunately, even if some other featuresare updated/improved, the problem raised is never corrected.
Anyway, this is the most lucky case, otherwise, no answer is never given,which happen nearly 80% of the time.
If you go through the french forum, you will notice that this is also the most common answer (with please email to support ...) and that many people also complain of the lack of feedback.
Whatshould be the way to get some feedback from the support when living in France ?
Having a good tool is nothing if technical support does not care of users like Alexandra does, and this can lead to people to quite for another tool.
Moreover, which such support, many people will think twice before paying for Premium account if they know that nobody will support them in case of problem while they pay !
Thanks in advance for you help.
Once GODPARENTS field is filled, it is impossble to clean it,
Could you please have a look ?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Previouly, 1 DSCR TAG was exported empty, and correctly understood by other tools.
With v8, some extra keywords have been added while it is empty, and not understood anymore by other tools -> 1 DSCR <DESC></DESC>
As all my "1 DSCR" TAGs are empty, I do not need/use them, and it would be a nice thing that the tools removes the TAG when empty, or allows to remove it by hand when needed (like annotations)
I have tried to remove them by hand from the GED file and to re-import it, however as 3 _DESCRIPTION TAG is not supported at import, I loose all corresponding data if I want to do so.
Problems and proposal have been submitted to Alexandra, from french support, and she did not whish to answer and support about this point.
Could you please have a look ?
"3 _DESCRIPTION Y" is created by your tool, but when trying to re-import a GED with such TAG (created by v8) the tool indicates it is unknown (While it created it).
Alexandra, from french support, refuses to answer to this point ...
The Description field for event is quite usefull, and I prefer it to annotations which are not directly visible.
Could you please have a look to this ?
Thanks in advance for you help,

Bachmann told the group of Jewish Republicans of her arduous but gratifying experience volunteering on an Israel kibbutz in 1974 — a story she detailed in her book, "Core of Conviction," which she released in November.
Bachmann accused President Obama of failing to support Israel but being willing to support the Occupy Wall Street movement, which she said should otherwise be known as "the Obama reelection team." Obama has not endorsed the movement, but has said their frustrations are in line with the inequities he seeks to overcome.
"They want other people to pay for their stuff," she said. "That doesn't work in the United States of America."

The beauty product that's on everyone's lips? Quite literally: this multipurpose, award-winning balm. Whether you use it as a glossy, hydrating lip treatment or as a salve for dry, cracked elbows and knees, this ultrarich, hypoallergenic healer replenishes every patch of skin. Beloved by London makeup artists for its fast-acting, long-lasting effect, the ways to use this odorless, flavor-free, 100% natural balm are literally endless.
I felt this was too thick and not really spreadable. I tried it on my lips but didn't enjoy that thick smeared-on feeling and couldn't fathom putting it on my face, not sure how anyone uses this as a multi purpose balm, I think it would seal my pores closed permanently!1
I was so excited about trying this and when I got it I was dancing. The packaging was great and loved the safety seal.... then I attempted to squeeze a small amount in my finger and it was so thick it took alot to get it out. Then once it was on my finger i put alittle on my lips and it was thicker/ goopier then straight vaseline. Still tried it just to be fair and I don't think it lasted a whole 5 min on my lips. It was so horrible !!! Honestly I prefer Vaseline to this stuff hands down, and I can't stand vaseline. Needless to say this is something I am not impressed with because of the formula, but that is just because I am not a fan of the formula. Anything thick, greasy is total turn off for this girl. Went to my roommate.1

Apple buying small companies every other month but constantly evaluating larger acquisitionsSpeaking at Goldman Sachs' Technology and Internet Conference on Tuesday, Apple CEO Tim Cook pointed to the company's "deliberate, thoughtful" mantra as a reason it doesn't typically acquire large companies but admitted it's not opposed to such purchases if the right one comes along.
Instead, Cook noted how Apple has actively been acquiring smaller companies that it finds as a better fit.
"If you look at the past three years," Cook said, "we've averaged about an acquisition every other month. They're companies where they have really smart people and/or IP. Generally speaking, we've been in many cases taking something they're working on and move the skills to work on something else."
Cook went on to cite the example of Apple's acquisition of PA Semiconductor.
"This was an incredibly skilled group of guys, and they could supplement an incredible group of folks and they were working on PowerPC at the time. We didn't have an interest in that, so we moved the skills to work on our iPhone and other engines. We will do more of those."
As to large companies, Cook said the company's patient and deliberate approach to acquisitions typically precluded such purchases, despite Apple's cash holdings in excess of $125 billion.
"We have looked at large companies. In each case, it didn't pass our test. Will we look at more? I think so. But we're disciplined and thoughtful, and we don't feel a pressure to go out and acquire revenue. We want to make great products. If a large company could help us, then that would be of interest. But, again: Deliberate, thoughtful is our mantra."

Journal of Consumer Policy
Consumer Issues in Law, Economics and Behavioural Sciences
The Journal of Consumer Policy examines the behavior of consumers and producers, and fosters communication among parties in the marketplace. It explores consumer dependence on existing social and economic structures, helps to define consumer interests, and discusses ways in which consumer welfare can be fostered - or restrained - through actions and policies of consumers, industry, organizations, government, educational institutions, and mass media.
Coverage includes the impact of new technologies; market regulation and deregulation; internationalization; consumers in less affluent societies; environmental and gender issues; public sector products and services; consumer organizations and agencies; product safety and liability; and interaction of consumption, work and leisure.
The Journal reports on legal policy, and analyzes trends in implementation of consumer law. It also considers the supply-side impact of consumer legislation and discusses consumer policy in different parts of the world.

Mooren ulceration is an uncommon corneal autoimmune disease that can lead to blindness. We describe a patient with aggressive disease in whom inflammatory control was only achieved after infusion of a tumor necrosis factor α antagonist, infliximab.
A 37-year-old Nigerian man with a 14-year history of bilateral Mooren ulceration had a right corneal perforation and a desmetocele in his severely damaged left eye (Figure, A and B). Snellen visual acuity was 6/60 OD, improving to 6/36 OD with pinhole, and hand movements OS. Systemic cyclosporine at a dosage of 5 mg/kg/d and prednisolone tapering from 1 mg/kg/d and ceasing after 8 weeks were given, with 2% cyclosporine eyedrops and ofloxacin eyedrops both 3 times daily to the right eye. The right corneal perforation healed with glue and a therapeutic contact lens. However, the desmetocele in the left eye perforated during an inflammatory episode 2 months later, so mycophenolate mofetil (CellCept; Hoffman-La Roche Inc, Nutley, New Jersey) at a dosage of 1 g twice daily was added, a 12-mm corneoscleral lamellar tectonic graft and cataract extraction were carried out, and Baerveldt tube surgery was performed for intractably elevated intraocular pressure.
Bilateral Mooren ulceration. A, Right eye at the initial visit with active ulceration. B, Left eye at the initial visit with a desmetocele and advanced disease. C, Right eye with new infiltrates at the 1-o'clock position and iris prolapse at the site of perforation, under a bandage contact lens. D, Left eye following corneoscleral graft with active guttering superotemporally and a central persistent epithelial defect. E, Right eye with quiescent disease 5 months after commencing infliximab therapy and conjunctival resection. F, Left eye with quiescent disease 5 months after commencing infliximab therapy.
After 4 months of quiescence, the disease again reactivated with new infiltrates and melts resulting in a flat chamber in the right eye and new guttering in the periphery of the left corneoscleral graft (Figure, C and D). Cyclophosphamide treatment at a dosage of 100 mg/d was commenced with another course of oral prednisolone, and mycophenolate treatment was stopped. Three weeks later, the patient developed microscopic hematuria and bloody stools, so cyclophosphamide treatment had to be discontinued. Stool cultures were negative for parasites. The infiltrates and melts in the right eye continued to be active, so infliximab at a dosage of 5 mg/kg was added, combined with oral cyclosporine. The inflammation in both eyes responded rapidly to this treatment, with gradual return of the inflammation in the 2-week interval between infusions. The patient received 3 infusions over 6 weeks. A right conjunctival recession and cautery procedure was carried out after another perforation, which sealed spontaneously under a bandage lens, and mycophenolate was again added to the immunosuppressive regimen.
Following this, both corneas healed and the eyes became white, so the infliximab infusions were reduced to 6 weekly. At the last visit, 5 months after commencing infliximab treatment, the disease appears to be quiet (Figure, E and F). Snellen visual acuity is currently 6/60 OD, improving to 6/18 OD with a scleral contact lens. Unfortunately, the patient has no vision in the left eye due to the uncontrolled glaucoma. Infliximab infusions are currently being continued at decreasing intervals.
This case demonstrates how difficult Mooren ulceration can be to treat, given both the delay in onset of action and adverse effects of conventional immunosuppressive therapy. The pathogenesis of Mooren ulceration is uncertain but may involve an immune response to a corneal stromal protein (corneal antigen), which is identical to calgranulin C released by neutrophils during the host defense response to helminths.1 Infiltration of lymphocytes, macrophages, and Langerhans cells has been observed in the conjunctiva adjacent to Mooren ulceration.2
Tumor necrosis factor α is an important cytokine in the establishment and maintenance of inflammation in many autoimmune diseases, and the success of tumor necrosis factor α antagonists in immune-mediated rheumatic diseases has led to its off-label use in ocular inflammatory disease.3 Apart from inhibition of tumor necrosis factor α, infliximab also appears to induce regulatory T cells in rheumatoid arthritis4 and to induce T-cell apoptosis in Crohn disease,5 both of which might be relevant in ocular inflammation.
To our knowledge, effective treatment with tumor necrosis factor α antagonists has not previously been described in Mooren ulceration. This article shows that addition of infliximab may be useful when rapid control of inflammation is desirable and/or when conventional immunosuppressive therapy is not tolerated or effective.

Good stuff! Great info and like I've been saying. No matter if team Pac likes it or not the boxing game will be changed and extensive testing will happen. too much "stuff" out there to not test for it.
This is only for the better and if Pac was the one who came up with this "plan" many people would have the shoe on the other foot. Since it was Mayweather they cry foul.
Mayweather could save a burning baby from a firey' pit of lava while curing cancer, aids and world hunger yet people would still bash him. Dedicated haters!

"I can't wait for it to come up again. The guy's a part of the team, now. He shows up, drives me to go and get sandwiches and to go bowling or whatever."
I dont understand this part. I thought he would get tested right on the spot.

RBC leads issuance with natural resources reverse convertibles
The latest US issuance consists almost entirely of Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) reverse convertibles, many of which track companies involved in supplying natural resources. One product is based on steel producer and manufacturer US Steel. It has a six-month term and offers a return equivalent to 9.5% a year and a downside barrier of 80% against any fall in the underlying stocks. Another resource-based reverse convertible from RBC tracks the stocks of Northern Oil and Gas, a Minnesota-based oil...

Skip to comments.M-1 versus AR-15 versus FN-FAL versus 12-Gauge: What to buy in a time of crisis?
Posted on 09/14/2001 5:48:10 PM PDT by SlickWillard
Not to be paranoid, but I have a bad feeling about this war we're entering. This summer I socialized with some Arabs, and, quite frankly, they're not the friendliest people in the world. Plus, they know my home address. Just to be on the safe side, I'd like to purchase a rifle or a shotgun in the next few days, but I have very little experience in these matters. I have long followed the FR threads on these matters (see below), and was hoping to draw on the expertise of the FR community. I am told that if I pass the phone-in test, I should be able to purchase a long gun or rifle in about 15 minutes. Would you please help me, and other Freepers like me, by offering your ideas about weapons for use in times of civil unrest? If possible:
1) Please limit your suggestions to things that the consumer has a reasonable chance to purchase in a store near his or her home. You aren't going to walk into the gun store down the street and find a $5000 fifty-caliber sniper cannon with a $1500 telescope.
2) Please limit your discussion to the practical effectiveness of the weapon, not its theoretical effectiveness. Theoretically, in close quarters, a fully automatic M-16 is superior to a semi-automatic M1, but, in practice, the consumer can only purchase a semi-automatic M-16 (AR-15). Theoretically, at 500 meters, a semi-automatic M1 is superior to a fully automatic M-16, but, in practice, unless you build your house next to the Bonneville salt flats, you'll never encounter a 500 meter line of sight.
3) Remember, the weapon has to be a long gun (rifle) that can be purchased on the spot. No handguns, or anything else that requires a waiting period. Note that this rules out the Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP). Also, we're talking complete, fully functioning weapons here. You don't have six weeks to assemble the weapon from the very best parts made by the very best machine shops.
4) The cost of the ammo is very nearly as important as cost of the weapon. If a round costs $5, the newbie can't afford to become familiar with the weapon.
5) The tables below don't mention shotguns, because they haven't been the subject of much discussion here at FR. A pump action shotgun is probably about the best weapon you can have in close quarters (that, or a very large, very aggressive canine). Please give any suggestions you have concerning reliable, reasonably priced pump action shotguns and their shells.
6) Much of the information in the tables that follow is probably wrong. Don't hesitate to point out any mistakes or fallacies that you spot.
7) Finally, and most sadly, the weapon is not for killing squirrels, rabbits or deer. Instead, the weapon is to be kept at your side, in case the bad guys show up at your house and present a "you or them" situation. The purpose of the weapon is to maximize the probability that it's them, not you.
|For Sale:
(a division of ebay)
I do have a 30-06 Remington and a 12 gauge 835 Mossberg, and also can PROBABLY get a hold of an M1 Garand within 20 minutes if need be.
If the SHTF, and I had one choice of weapon, I'd want the Mossberg.
For close in work, I like the Dan Wesson 357 w/6inch barrel. Loud as heck, but once again, you can usually hit what you aim at with little practice.
For canines, I suggest pit bulls. Very sweet dogs and very lovable. Bestest breed that ever was IMHO. But, they are loyal and do not need to be taught to defend their people.
They've got like a gazillion models:
http://www.mossberg.com/pcatalog/model835.htmAny suggestions on what features to look for, or what features to avoid?
1. Find a friend or make a friend who is an NRA member with some years experience in handling firearms.
2. Buy the shotgun. Pump would suit a novice well, but have your friend show you and help you practice with DUMMY SHELLS NOT LIVE ONES until you can load and unload the thing safely.
If the pump is too complex buy a double barrel. Easy to operate and you get two shots instead of one.
3. Go to the range. Learn to hit targets.
I recommend the shotgun because it has good stopping power, is easier to aim, and the situation you describe is mostly very short range.
I noticed you didn't include any Kalashnikovs on your list. Most reliable of the lot, but not quite as precise as the fine rifles you listed. Notice that all the sand-terrorists carry Kalashnikovs. This is because they continue to work, even when full of sand and neglected for decades. Something to think about.
I can also get 3 1/2 inch shells of .00 buckshot with it as well.
Once I get a slug barrell, that gun can do almost anything outside of rapid fire and sniping.
It can be fired with one arm if you take a hit.
Well it depends I guess. I would go 12 gauge but if Slick is built small and has little firearms experience maybe a 20 is the ticket. Certainly the recoil and noise are less and that is good for a first time shooter.
I assure you, I am not looking for trouble. I just want to be ready if it comes up my driveway looking for me.
PS: This thing could get really ugly before it's all said and done (as though it hasn't been mighty ugly so far...)
1)Ammo is cheap and readily available anywhere
2)You don't have be an expert marksman to hit what you point it at (it's called a "scattergun" for a reason)
3)If you choose to, you can go for a disabling shot and have a reasonable chance of actually hitting a leg, arm, etc.
4)Also If you choose to, it can be quite lethal (though maybe a little messy)
5)If you have neighbors like I do, you worry about penetration. Steel shot probably won't penetrate your wall AND your neighbor's
6)Deterrance: The sound of a shell being jacked into a pump shotgun's chamber has to be the scariest and most distinctive sound in the universe.
Enough to put most burglars to flight without firing a shot.
If your looking for an assault rifle and money is a concern I'd recommend an AK-47 type like a MAK-90. They can be had for as little as $250 and the ammo (7.62x39) is about $80 for 1000 rds. They are very reliable and fun to shoot. I just got a Dragunov stock for mine and boy is it evil looking. A AR-15 type rifle starts out at about $600.
My own favorite rifle is my M-1 Garand. Loading the clips is a little tedious and if your not careful inserting the clip you can lose a thumb. But they are very accurate and fun to shoot. The first time I ever shot mine I put 6 of 8 rounds in a 12"x12" at 100 yards shooting freehand. I picked it up at a gun show for $700 but you can get them for as little as $400 if you don't have to have USGI matching parts.
I have a sweet titanium snubnoze 38, with "ticket to Allah" written all over it and Mohamed will not no where or if I have one.
If you live in Kalifornia or some other totalitarian state, revolt against the state for your rights back, or move now! It could be possible that your state allows you to go about non-concealed. Take whatever your state allows, and now is the time to undue the harm against the 2nd Amendment that was inflicted on it that past 50 odd years.
Understand that discharging a firearm in your house is LOUD. Be prepared for it. Your ears will ring for 20 minutes. Or more.
Understand that people shot will also create a scene. They will scream, yell, cry, plead, bleed all over the carpet, and leave particles splattered on your living room wall. Prepare yourself for it now.
Not trying to deter you from protecting yourself, just letting you know that it will be loud and messy and in many states you will be subjected to a grand jury investigation, etc.
In our case the police took over 14 hours to quiz, measure, quiz some more, take pictures, smoke, talk, etc. Then there were the months wondering whether I'd be charged.
Just letting you know. I like the Remington 870.
I'm more in the Ishy .308 line for around $150 a ten round mag and bayonnet lug too,plus you get to use all that good british slang.
Sir,What is a napature? Sir,a napature is a nole you look though,Sir.Kersnickety snack and much pounding of the feet.
Or a good Rem 870 will do all you need,buy one send it to wilson combat and get back a real working piece for only $200 more dollars.
I'd never part with it...very handy.
I like that. I think I will get one myself someday.
Pump or other?
Seriously, a basic Mossberg pump or Remington 870 is ideal for in-house defense work. Most 870's now come with screw-in chokes - use full culinder for in the house (shot scatters widely and in a hurry). Use #4 shot or bigger (lower the shot #, bigger the shot- BUT, bigger the shot, less pellets in a round).
One question - where the hell have you been pricing ammo? Really good shotgun shells are about 6-8 dollars per 25 round box, and you can often find them on sale for $4-5.
7.62mm and .223 surplus ammo can be gotten for about 20 cents per round. 30-06 for the Garand is slightly higher.
$2.00 per round? That's about the going rate for .50 caliber BMG. ,
The AR-15 of today is not the M-16 of the 70's. They are finely manufactured pieces of machinery that have really come into their own in terms of reliability and accuracy, and are popular both for varmint hunters and precision shooters (even at pretty long ranges -- most of us won't ever need to hit anything beyond 500 yards really, in which case I'd probably want a good bolt action in .300 Win Mag or somethign).
As far as usefullness when the SHTF, the Carbine versions especially are excellent in an "urban combat" environment as they combine compactness, rate of fire, and low recoil in a package that is not "overpowered" for close quarters battle.
Obviously, they are not infinitely flexible. That's why everyone needs several guns of different types! :-)
You don't have firearms experience? Well, then what the @#$%& are you doing considering stuff that will put holes thru your neighbor's kids bedroom if you screw up?
First, find someone who will be a good teacher. Find out what HE teaches best. Then get that, buy LOTS of ammo for it, and spend a few days practicing with it.
For the novice, a semi-auto shotgun in 20-gauge may be best. The recoil is managable, and novices tend to "short-stroke" pump shotguns under stress (this makes them jam -- you don't want that when you're fighting for your life)
BTW, the 12 Ga has quite the kick. But at 6'4" and 235, it's a draw ...
For home defense I side with those who favor a 12 gauge pump. Almost any brand I have ever been around (Remmington, Winchester, Ithica (sp), Mossberg and undoubted others) has worked flawlessly.
Whoever was quoting ammo prices (e.g. 30'06 at $40 per box??) in the tables above was either looking to sell something at a huge markup or was buying something gold plated.
If you are looking for a dependable handgun at a very moderate price, there have been a lot of police surplus Model 10 S&W 38s around at very good prices from time to time. As a lot of police officers who shot themselves with 70s era autoloaders proved, a modern double action revolver is probably a lot safer for the shooter who may not always be focussed on safety.
Earth to Deep_6: The "it" just flew two jet airplanes into the World Trade Center, which, thanks to the "it," no longer exists. Neither do about 5000 former tenants.
Consider the following scenario: Massive, possibly nuclear, counter-retaliation by the United States on Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, et al. Massive, possibly unconventional, counter-counter-retaliation by many non-citizen Arabs in the United States (think visa and green card-carrying engineers, post docs, grad students, undergrads, wives, domestic workers, etc.). Like I said, I spent some time with non-citizen Arabs this summer, and they aren't real fond of us.
For close-in work, nothing, and I mean nothing compares with a scattergun. Mossberg, with a short barrel, would be the best thing. Rifles are good at long range, but they're simply too clumsy for truly close encounters.
Nothing else comes close.
Actually, the author of this thread is very serious. He intends to make a purchase tomorrow and to begin target practice in the woods behind his house tomorrow afternoon.
$4 per round?
Now that someone has committed an act of terror, these same people you thought enough of to spend time with, have become evil?
You're now afraid these people who thought enough of you to spend their time with you are coming to your home to hunt you down?
You're a perfect example of why some people want to mandate waiting periods for firearm purchases.
Sounds like you need a friend, someone who will listen to you, far more than you need a gun, and I'd wager that one of your Arab 'friends' (one of the people you're talking about killing) would be happy to oblige you.
For side arms I like the expensive (roughly $375-$500) - Walther PPK/PPKS. It's small, inexpensive to fire, easily concealed, accurate, median on recoil and comfortable to fire. You don't have to go too big - you want stopping power, not something that will go through someone and keep on Going. You want something that will put them down, not a rocket launcher that is unweildy and goes right through. A good Mossy 12 ga. and Walther would put you in under $1000 and prepare you for anything close range, though the Walther may surprise most on it's range capabilities. There are many reasons it has been a weapon of Choice in Security agencies. I've heard stories of jam rates; but, I've yet to see one actually Jam.
