Operator Overloading
Why <<(),>>() are used as insertion operator and extraction operator, why dnt we use function instead???
What is the cost of using Overloaded operators??
What is the efficient and technical differences in using overloaded operators and functions to perform the same task??
Re: Operator Overloading
In computer programming, operator overloading (less commonly known as operator ad-hoc polymorphism) is a specific case of polymorphism in which some or all of operators like +, =, or == have different implementations depending on the types of their arguments. Sometimes the overloadings are defined by the language; sometimes the programmer can implement support for new types.
In this case, the addition operator is overloaded to allow addition on a user-defined type "Time" (in C++):
Time operator+(const Time& lhs, const Time& rhs) {
The operation could also be defined as a class method, replacing lhs by the hidden this argument; however this forces the left operand to be of type Time and supposes this to be a potentially modifiable
Time Time::operator+(const Time& rhs) const {

New to revolvers

Handguns: Revolvers

September 11, 2007, 11:17 PM
Do most or all revolvers chambered in 38special also allow use of 380acp for lower cost practice rounds? Are there exceptions?
If you enjoyed reading about "New to revolvers" here in TheHighRoad.org archive, you'll LOVE our community. Come join

September 11, 2007, 11:29 PM
The "headspace" is totally wrong for shooting 380 acp. ammo in a .38 special revolver, as the 380 is designed primarily for use in semi automatic pistols...
Ammo for the .38 special is cheap enough and reloading it makes it much cheaper yet as it costs me less than $3.00 per hundred to load and shoot....
September 12, 2007, 12:47 AM
38 special is about as cheap as it get in a revolver. Aside from headspace issues, 380 uses a 0.355 diameter bullet and 38 uses a 0.357 diameter bulley.
Unless you happen to own a Medusa, I suggest you don't try shooting 380.
September 12, 2007, 09:56 PM
It seems you can safely shoot a 38special cartridge in a 357mag revolver, correct? For range plinking, this would be a cost savings I think if you are not a reloader, but i'm looking into that yet.
September 12, 2007, 11:05 PM
Yes, you can shoot a .38 Special round in a .357 Magnum but not the other way around. The .357 Magnum was developed from the .38 Special so it's almost the same. It's just a little longer to prevent someone from mistakenly loading .357 Magnum rounds in a .38 Special revolver. The .380 Auto is just that, a semi-auto round and not suitable for revolvers. Besides, .38 Special ammo is probably cheaper than .380 Auto anyway.
Blazer ammo is made with Aluminum casings and is cheaper. You can't reload the cases but since you don't reload that won't be a problem. Fiocchi and S&B ammo is cheap too.
Sportsman's Guide has "American" 158 gr LRN ammo for $9.77 a box of 50. http://www.sportsmansguide.com/cb/cb.asp?a=339241
They have S&B 148 gr WC for $10.17, 158 gr LRN for $10.97 and 158 gr FMJ for $12.27 a box of 50. http://www.sportsmansguide.com/cb/cb.asp?a=148319
Fiocchi 158 gr LRN is $10.17 a box. http://www.sportsmansguide.com/cb/cb.asp?a=92045
Blazers are around the same price too.
They have Remington 130 gr MC UMC for $97.97 a case of 500, that's $9.79 a box and a great price for Remington ammo... http://www.sportsmansguide.com/cb/cb.asp?a=119944
I would go with the Remington ammo since it's the cheapest and it is always good ammo.
September 14, 2007, 08:51 PM
You should look into one of these:
The Ruger Blackhawk Convertible (http://www.ruger-firearms.com/Firearms/FAProdView?model=308&return=Y) shoots .357 Magnum and the .38 family of cartridges. It comes with a second cylinder for 9mm Luger ammunition. It still won't fire the .380. The revolver is single action only, but I'm interpreting your post to mean you're looking for fun, rather than concealed carry.
They're not very expensive, too.
September 15, 2007, 03:47 AM
it costs me less than $3.00 per hundred to load and shoot....
I had no idea that reloading saved THAT kind of money! I'm going to buy some books on reloading tomorrow. Enough putting it off.
September 15, 2007, 04:23 AM
I had no idea that reloading saved THAT kind of money! I'm going to buy some books on reloading tomorrow. Enough putting it off.
I just started reloading this year so I bought my components recently. I am producing a box of 50 .38 Special WC rounds for $3.32 a box. The cheapest practice ammo I can find locally is Remington UMC ammo for $12.99 a box. You save even more on .357 Magnum ammo. Remington UMC .357 Magnums are $20.99 a box and I can produce a box of 50 for under $6.00. Those are a little more because the FMJ bullets cost more than Cast Lead and you use more powder with the Magnum rounds than you do with .38 Special rounds.
If you go to the range and shoot only 100 rounds of .38 Special and 100 .357 Magnum rounds you will save $49.32. Retail ammo would cost you $67.96 and my reloads cost me $18.64 to make. I'm shooting 200 rounds for less than the price of 1 box of .357 Magnum Factory Ammo.
How are you making 100 rounds for under $3.00? I thought I was doing good for 100 rounds at $6.64. Are you still using components you bought back before the prices almost doubled?
September 15, 2007, 05:19 AM
pleaseeeeee dont put a 380 into that revolver you might get hurt! also 357 mag is just a "little" diffrent on the outside. however inside your comparing 3.5 grains to 17 grains of powder! well atlest in my loads!
September 15, 2007, 06:32 AM
Today's prices for ammo, homebrew or store-bought, have risen over those of six months back, much less a year ago. Locally, primers are $29-$30/1k - and, say, if you use the load I like, 3.5gr Titegroup and a 158gr LSWC, that would run you $16+/lb (7,000 gr) for propellant. That makes $3.70/100 minimum - if you make your own lead bullets, have some decent brass, and already have an abundance of tumbling media, lube, etc - and the reloading press. If you have to buy bullets, as I do, expect $49/1k minimum for lead to ~$100+/1k for jacketed. Don't forget shipping... or Haz Mat fees for the primers and powder, if you can't get it locally or at a gunshow. So, real world rounds in .38 Special will cost you $8.60/100 plus.
Of course, reloading is a hobby. It permits you to shoot more... you have to, just to make more 'empties' to reload! Also, it allows you to make exactly what you want. For example, I was shooting mainly .45 Colts five years ago when I started reloading, which I did to make just those rounds. I had bagged over 2,700 such spent cases of that ammo which I had shot over the years. Even bare-bones 'cowboy' loads were $22/50 locally then - if you could find them. The new Dillon 550 I bought to reload would pay for itself before I finished 2,100 reloads... wrong! It started another hobby. For example, I make a steel plate pinger load for my .38's - a 125gr Berry's HP - $60/1k - over 3.5gr Titegroup for 700 fps from a 5" tube (686+ or 627). This is my local 'Steel Plate Challenge' plate popper round - no recoil, very little smoke, nice 'ping'. I also need easy-to-pop primers, ie, Federal, in my .45 ACP's for my 625JM revolver, due to it's lightened springs - another reason.
The first step is the revolver... and the aforementioned Ruger convertible is a great idea. That's how I 'discovered' .45 Colt - from their model in .45 ACP & .45 Colt (I had a G21 and tons of ACP ammo.). Just save your brass. You just never know when you might start that 'other' hobby... I never thought I would, either. Now I am one of those dumpster-diving fools you see 'digging for gold' (brass and decent empty boxes) at the range...

September 15, 2007, 07:39 AM
I agree with my friend Stainz, on the upward swing as to the cost
of handloading vs. factory ammo. And, I do not believe the end is in sight?
Lots of factors are dependent on the cost of the rounds you shoot; such
as the demand for ammo devoted to the current war's the U.S. is fight'in.
This is true for copper [to make jacketed ammo], as well as lead. :eek:
To answer the original question, NO you cannot shoot .380 ACP's out of
a firearm chambered in .38 Special. :)

Rev. Jim Nelson: It is about power, power over. All slurs are meant to demean and to wound, to rob a person or a people of their humanity. Whether it is calling those on the left socialists or those on the right fascists, name-calling divides and wounds; it provokes rather than promotes.

Is this serious?08/11/2008
I must ask, is this serious? I know with a name like Supercuts, you can't and shouldn't expect much, but I do expect people to know something about cutting hair. You did go to hair school and graduate. I went to this location and asked for my hair to be cut in a stacked bob, not above my hair line in the back. In the end, the middle was longer than the front and the back and the back was between 2 - 3 inches above my hair line. The guy didnt pay attention to anything that I asked and he was spaced out most of the time I was in the chair. No conversation, nothing. If you are going to work with people, you should at least fake it.

Peapack-Gladstone Bank's Next Step Shoe Drive to benefit Mane Stream, a nonprofit organization located in Oldwick, has now drawn to a close.
With the spring riding season upon us, Mane Stream's diversified programs are in full swing including equine assisted occupational therapy, physical and speech therapy, a day camp, and school and vocational programs.
Through their adaptive horsemanship and equine assisted therapies, Mane Stream strives to improve the quality of life for children and adults with physical, developmental, emotional and medical challenges.
In support of Mane Stream's recent fundraising program to offset farrier (shoe and hoof care) expenses for their horses, Peapack-Gladstone Bank clients and employees, contributed hundreds of pairs of new and gently used, wearable shoes and sneakers at many of its locations, which when consolidated equaled 28 boxes (approximately 1,120 lbs.) of footwear.
Mane Stream will receive funds for every pound of shoes collected. In turn, shoe donations will be distributed by ShoeBox Recycling to various marketplaces providing much needed footwear for less fortunate men, women and children in communities throughout the world.
Peapack-Gladstone Bank thanks its contributors and volunteers for making this shoe drive such a huge success and appreciates all those who stepped up to assist.

Richard Eskow: The president and his fellow Democrats have agreed to a series of reckless budget-cutting measures instead of fighting for jobs and protecting the social contract, which has deepened and lengthened the lingering recession.
Local Fights Against Austerity Growing
Mark Vorpahl: Between sequestration and the billions of cuts to social programs that Obama is pushing, it is evident that the economic policies of both major parties are not intended to promote a recovery for working people.
Sequestration: Budget Balancing on the Backs of the Majority
Jamala Rogers: The Congressional Budget Office estimates sequestration will cost around 750,000 jobs in total. Economic experts project a huge, negative impact on the economy. Once again, Congress proves that it knows nothing about job creation or economic development.
California NOW Falls in Behind Eric Garcetti
Patty Bellasalma: We are the National Organization FOR Women not OF women. We fight for gender equity and women and girls' empowerment. That is the qualifying core value that candidates and members alike must display.
Why This Is the Worst Recovery on Record
Robert Reich: We're now witnessing what happens when all of the economic gains go to the top, and the rest of the population doesn't have enough purchasing power to keep the economy going.
Opposition Grows Fierce to Austerity Cuts
Mark Vorpahl: This latest budget crisis poses the question of "who do Portland's elected leaders serve, the city's majority of working class communities or big business and the wealthy?" So far, while the 99% have been suffering with all the belt tightening, Portland's 1% have been left to grow fat.
Excessive Military Spending Crushes the American Dream
Randy Shaw: Tax Day has passed with little attention to the chief reason U.S. students are overwhelmed by debt, millions are homeless, children go to bed hungry and our public transit infrastructure is being destroyed — the allocation of half of every discretionary dollar to the military.
That's Where the Money Goes
Lawrence Wittner: Although studies have found that the United States ranks 17th among nations in education, 26th in infant mortality, and 37th in life expectancy and overall health, there is no doubt that it ranks first when it comes to war.
The Upside of Taxes
RJ Eskow: Today's new corporate-sponsored cost-cutting craze is merely the latest policy designed to enrich a powerful few at the expense of the many, and today's anti-tax agenda is being used to make sure it succeeds.
Double Whammy: Grim Jobs Picture, Horrible "Grand Bargain"
Carl Bloice: The Congressional Progressive Caucus budget that is far more sensible and humane than anything the White House is proposing. But since the "serious" people in Washington don't cotton to it, the serious mainstream media won't give it the time of day.
Time to Bell the Obama Cat?
Norman Solomon: Whether or not Obama's vicious assault on Social Security is successful, it has already jolted an unprecedented number of longtime supporters. It should be the last straw, suffused with illumination.
It's the Jobs, Stupid
Brent Budowsky: Obama needs to contemplate the possibility that his legacy will be "the jobless president." He should fight to become "the jobs president."
It Can Happen Here: The Confiscation Scheme Planned for US and UK Depositors
Ellen Brown: When Americans realize that the alternative is to have their ready cash transformed into "bank stock" of questionable marketability, moving failed mega-banks into the public sector may start to have more appeal.

The no-stink, no-mess, biodegradable food scrap container that goes right into your compost
Made from 100% recycled corrugated boxes
By Gabe, Greg and Glenn
The idea for {POST}MODERN grew (literally) from stinky plastic buckets in our families' kitchens. About 10 years ago, our hometown of Seattle started curbside collection of food scraps. We loved the idea of composting food waste, but the countertop containers and compostable bag liners were disgusting, wet, stinky additions to our homes. So, we started working on ways to make collecting food scraps easy and clean.

City Farmer holds adult 'wormshops' in Vancouver, BC
Residents of the City of Vancouver, please call.
City Farmer has held worm composting classes for over 25 years in cooperation with the City of Vancouver. This spring we have limited number of spaces for City residents to purchase $25 worm composters for use in apartments. Each one comes with a bin, lid, tray, worms, bedding and Mary Appelhof's book, "Worms Eat My Garbage".

Do not stand on your compost bin to clean your roof
This fellow falls into his bin and gets stuck!
City Farmer has run the Vancouver Compost Hotline for almost 30 years and we have had all types of questions, but never about someone stuck in a bin.
Of course this could have been a prank set-up to amuse his family, but then again, if the man had all his weight on both legs on the centre of the bin lid, then perhaps he did fall through.

Composting: Under sink device takes macerated food waste – sends it in one direction – liquid waste goes in another.
Rice University engineering students' device makes composting easier
By David Ruth
Rice University
Office of Public Affairs
News & Media Relations
HOUSTON – (March 28, 2016) – It's good for crops, it's good for water and, in the end, it's good for people and the planet. Why would anyone not turn food waste into compost?
Rice University engineering students asked that question at the start of the school year and have spent the months since refining their answer.
The team known as (com)post-haste invented a device that sits under one's sink and takes macerated food waste produced by a standard garbage disposal and sends it in one direction while liquid waste (including water) goes in another. Effectively, it simplifies the process of recycling garbage into a useful product while helping to protect water supplies.
The students make up one of more than 80 capstone design teams at Rice. Most senior engineering students are required to complete a project to graduate and are presented with a host of possibilities when they begin their classes in August.

Urban Smart Farms – self-contained vertical garden and composting system
The Invictus Organic Soil Blend has been pre-blended with organic fertilizers and minerals such as kelp meal, alfalfa meal, glacial rock dust, blood meal, feather meal, fishbone meal and rock meal.
Located in Port Coquitlam, BC
From their website:
The Urban Smart Farm is the ultimate square-foot gardening system that converts 9 square-feet of growing space into 36 square-feet! Our method of farming maximizes space, uses less soil and water, and requires less time to maintain than a traditional garden.
At the center of the Urban Smart Farm is a column-like composting system that uses worms to break down your organic waste. The worms feed on your kitchen compost and after 90 days you are left with worm manure or worm castings, which is a high quality fertilizer.

New Chicago Composting Ordinance Helps Urban Farmers

Smaller producers like community gardens, as well as those in the urban farm category, will now be able to seek out ingredients to cultivate good compost.

Jan 27, 2016
The ordinance creates two new categories of composters: larger scale urban farms, and tier two facilities, like community gardens. After registering with the city, these agricultural organizations can increase the size of their operation and include offsite materials. Though they cannot accept money for taking organic waste, urban farms will be able to sell their compost.

Art of 'Waste' — The New York Compost Box Project

Eat Beer! Help ReGrained Grow – Barnraiser from Barnraiser on Vimeo.
Eat Beer
By Dan Kurzrock, Jordan Schwartz
Nov 8, 2015
The urban craft beer industry is booming, but with it so is an unsung food waste problem. ReGrained is a solution to this problem positioned at the nexus of food, craft beer, and sustainability.
ReGrained partners with urban craft breweries in San Francisco and recovers their "spent" grain as an ingredient in delicious and healthy food. This "spent" grain represents 85% of a breweries byproduct, but actually is more nutritive than before it was used brew. Breweries extract the sugar from the grain, leaving all of the plant protein and dietary fiber. Thus, this grain has offers a sustainable source of nutrition!

How dog parks are reducing the impact of pet waste
Dog poo compost not tested for pathogens should never be used on edible crops.
By Rose Seeman
Alternatives Journal
Aug 11 2015
Volunteers who maintained the dog run in Notre-Dame-de-Grâce Park in Montreal successfully composted pet waste from 2005 to 2010. They installed one-metre-cubed plastic bins and encouraged owners to put their dogs' doo in the bins and cover it with donated sawdust. The volunteers then turned the compost when visiting with their pets. Full bins were covered until the compost was finished. Then it was bagged and left as free garden fertilizer. According to Jim Fares, president of the Notre-Dame-de-Grâce Dog Run Association at the time, the process was virtually odourless. The compost quickly became popular and, he says, produced "huge flowers." (When volunteers dwindled after five years, the city took over park maintenance and discontinued composting.)

According to Dr Yellappa Reddy, former secretary, Department of Ecology and Environment, we can easily contain the amount of organic waste that is sent to landfills if everyone takes to organic terrace gardening and composting. "Even in urbanised areas, it is possible. The space in individual apartment houses is limited but if five to 10 per cent of the entire land is earmarked for gardening, it will destinely make a difference. One just needs a space that is well aerated and has sufficient light," he says.

This week on 60 Minutes David McCullough celebrates FranceHistorians in the News
France was the cradle of the modern idea of democracy. French troops were vital to America's victory in the War of Independence and Paris led the world in science, medicine and the arts. And as McCullough has written, the city was irresistible to the new citizens of a new nation.
David McCullough: They came here in the droves. They were here in order to improve themselves and to go home and thereby improve their country.
They were the first wave of innocents abroad, who began arriving in Paris just 50 years after Independence. Writers, artists, medical students.
David McCullough: They couldn't quite adjust to how old everything is. When they were looking at Notre Dame they were looking at a building that was begun before Columbus ever sailed.
Paris had grand boulevards. Breathtaking parks. Great universities. All the things young America didn't have.

The Philippines remains an attractive market for PPPs. 57 projects are now in the pipeline and the model is proving particularly attractive to foreign investors looking to access the growing market in the Philippines.
After the deadline for submissions was pushed back several times on account of bidding parties' request for more time to consider their position and despite a revision of the guidelines for the bidding of airport projects, s even consortia have now been qualified for the PHP17.5bn ( US$425mn ) public-private partnership (PPP) to upgrade Matcan-Cebu International Airport and operate and maintain the asset for 20 years . The award represents the latest in a wave of PPP projects approved by the Philippine government and confirms our belief that there is strong growth potential in the Philippine infrastructure sector.
The qualified consortia are:
MPIC-JG Summit Consortium composed of Metro Pacific Investments Corp. and JG Summit Holdings, Inc., with France's Aeroports De Lyon for operation and maintenance (O&M);
AAA Airport Partners composed of the Ayala and Aboitiz groups, with Texas-based Houston Airport System as O&M partner;
Filinvest-CAI Consortium of Filinvest Development Corp. and Changi Airports Mena Pte. Ltd., with Changi Airport Saudi Ltd. as the O&M partner;
San Miguel-Incheon Airport Consortium, composed of South Korea's Incheon International Airport Corp. as lead member and three others, including San Miguel Corp.-led Optimal Infrastructure Development, Inc. - with Incheon acting as the O&M partner;
First Philippine Airports led by First Philippine Holdings, Inc., with Wellington International Airport Ltd., NZ Airports Ltd., and Infratil Ltd. as O&M partners;
Premier Airport Group led by SM Investments Corp., with Switzerland-based Flughafen Zurich AG as O&M partner; and
GMR Infrastructure and Megawide Consortium of Megawide Construction Corp. and India-based GMR Infrastructure Ltd., with Delhi International Airport (P) Ltd. and GMR Hyderabad International Airport Ltd. as O&M partners.
The involvement of such a high number of international firms continues the trend for international firms to be interested in the Philippines market. The availability of financing through the government's infrastructure fund is enabling projects to progress and therefore has caught the attention of the international infrastructure sector. The fund, known as the Philippine Investment Alliance for Infrastructure (PInAI), has been developed with the support of two multilateral financial institutions - the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the private sector investment division of the World Bank - and this should make it easier to attract much-needed private and foreign capital to the PPP programme.
Besides the ADB, Dutch pension fund asset manager Algemene Pensioen Groe, Australian bank Macquarie Group, and one of Philippines' state pension funds, the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS) are also investing in PInAI. Given this level of support in the PPP market, we are bullish on the opportunities the Philippines will offer over our forecast period. In 2013, we forecast real growth of 7.9% for the infrastructure sector forecast, and then expect 5.9% per annum between 2013 and 2017. Compounding this positive outlook for the sector, the government recently passed an aggressive expansionary budget for FY2013, with a record PHP404.6bn (US$10.0bn) dedicated to infrastructure development (a 19.3% increase on 2012's budget).
|PPPs Lead To Good Infrastructure Growth
|Philippines Infrastructure Industry Value (US$bn) and Real Growth (% year-on-year)
We do however highlight the risk of doing business in the Philippines, with the World Bank ranking the Philippines 138 out of 185 countries on its ease of doing business in 2012, one of the lowest rankings in the Asia-Pacific region. As such, whilst we believe the likelihood of projects seeing the construction phase is high thanks to a strong economic performance and high demand for better infrastructure, we highlight the risk of major delays to projects. This is especially the case in the pre-construction phases where the tendering process is yet to reach maturity and as such will likely subject to usual hurdles in such markets.
Illustrative of the timescale on Philippine PPP projects, as we noted in mid-April 2013, a consortium consisting of South Korea's Daelim Industrial and Philippines' DM Consunji and Optimal Infrastructure Development (a subsidiary of Philippine conglomerate San Miguel ) was awarded the BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer) contract to implement the PHP15.86bn (US$385mn) Ninoy Aquino International Airport Expressway project. This is only the third contract awarded under the PPP programme since its inception in 2010.

Listen. You know I love you. I grew up on issues of EGM and seeing you rise from print media's ashes (like a giant pixelated phoenix) brought back that twinkle in my eye. There are other sites to go for videogame news and reviews…but the major ones often lack your endearing personality.
I guess I'm writing this because there are some things I need to bring up. Something has been straining this relationship. I've never been good about being confrontational, but you've always been telling me that this isn't going to work unless we communicate our feelings to each other, so here goes:
Your pop-up ads on your website are killing me. No, not literally killing me, but they make me feel like my soul is dying. Literally or figuratively aside, they are the worst.
Look, I know as a big site you need ads. I get it. EGM had plenty of ads, too. It's just that these are some of the most obtrusive banner ads I've ever seen outside of the dark corners of the internet I go to secure black market dolphin meat to satiate my appetite. But I am being bombarded with expanding pop-ups that assume that my mouse clicks were for them and redirect me to their own spots on the internet. Oftentimes multiple pop-up banner ads will load at the same time and I'll have to find multiple Xs to close windows before I can continue reading the content that keeps me coming back.
In your defense, the Tactics Ogre pop-up is quite pretty. I remember admiring its craftsmanship--the fact that some designer/coder spent time making sure this ad fit within the aesthetic of a 90s RPG. And it is important that this game is advertised so people will take a break from Call of Duty.
I know you care about me and you're always trying to look out for my interests. But maybe you misfired on this one? I mean, the ads can still be on the vertical and horizontal banners just as long as they don't start flying all over my screen, you know? I'm a man of delicate sensibilities. I have a weak heart and I can't handle all the excitement.
Anyway, I hope you had a great day at work. I'll see you soon.
P.S. I left out some tuna noodle casserole for you when you get back. I know how much you love it.

Producer Prices in February 2010
March 19, 2010
On an unadjusted basis, prices for finished goods advanced 4.4 percent for the 12 months ended February 2010, their fourth consecutive 12-month increase.
For the 12 months ended February 2010, prices for finished consumer foods increased 3.4 percent; for finished energy goods, 16.6 percent; and for finished goods less foods and energy, 1.0 percent.
Over the month, the Producer Price Index for Finished Goods declined 0.6 percent in February, seasonally adjusted. This decrease followed a 1.4-percent advance in January and a 0.4-percent increase in December.
In February, the decrease in the index for finished goods was driven by lower prices for energy goods, which declined 2.9 percent. By contrast, prices for finished consumer foods rose 0.4 percent and the index for finished goods less foods and energy inched up 0.1 percent.
These data are from the BLS Producer Price Index program. To learn more, see "Producer Price Indexes — February 2010" (HTML) (PDF), news release USDL-10-0316. All producer price indexes are routinely subject to revision once, 4 months after original publication, to reflect the availability of late reports and corrections by respondents.
