For two centuries, presidents hoping to secure their legacies have sought out biographers. But who could possibly capture the inspiring yet bizarre reality of the first black man to call the White House his crib, a tenure that brought hope, change, and health care to millions, but also spawned birthers, backlash, and the bewildering rise of Donald Trump? Thankfully, as the end of President Barack Obama s pioneering two terms in office drew near, the First Lady had a stroke of genius: Honey, all these presidential biographies are written by old white guys. Why not hook a brother up for once?
Enter D.L. Hughley. When the comedy legend got the call from the White House, he knew this was the assignment of a lifetime. Of course he would become a political biographer: what else could his decades of experience bringing unflinching truth and hilarity to the American people have been building toward?
And so D.L. proudly raised his finger to The System * and set out to record a true and accurate** oral history of the Obama years, interviewing everyone from Obama s esteemed Democratic colleagues in Washington to Republican pols who dare not speak his name and segments of the conservative base who have irrefutable proof that Obama is a Kenyan-born Muslim and Saddam Hussein s second cousin thrice removed AND a Coldplay fan. Protected by the Patriot Act and the promise of a presidential pardon, Hughley bitch-slapped virtually every rule of journalism in pursuit of his mission: hacking into Hillary Clinton s private e-mail server; infiltrating Trump s tanning sessions; staking out each of Mitt Romney s 752 mansions; even eavesdropping on Bill Clinton s late-night escapades.
At the end of it all, Hughley had bravely assembled an explosive dossier that would make Edward Snowden (and even the NSA) blush. Black Man, White House is the culmination of these extraordinary comedic efforts, an authoritative work on the Obama presidency that is destined to enlighten and entertain patriots, scholars, and Yes-We-Can ers for generations to come.

A meandering passage recording the life of an ordinary clergyman as it careens from the sublime to the ridiculous, often without knowing which is which.
30 July 2011
Looking For My Political 'Zen'
24 July 2011
A Little Outrage On Your Sundae?
Dear Reader,
This is been a tough week for those who are believe in democracy. Our 'best and brightest' stomp about like cheated children, more worried about what they will lose than what we will lose. But the week started out badly when in my local newspaper, the only major daily we have, the following letter appeared. I shorten it only to save time and space. Reacting to the effort of some local politicians to pass an equal access ordinance for LGBT people in a nearby city, J. B. Wright said, in the July 17th edition,
"This immoral and dysfunctional behavior should not be validated by any city official or clergyman, since it only helps preserve this sordid and unnatural sexual conduct by recognizing it as normal. The four council members and clergyman (not yours truly btw, but a colleague I know) wish to preserve and celebrate the essence of this most decadent and perverted lifestyle… by patronizing these misguided deviants. This behavior must be interpreted as abnormal and socially revolting. I am not suggesting that we expel them to a remote island, but neither do we need to excuse and accept this perverted, vulgar lifestyle."
I would like to direct you to the online version to verify this but when I asked the webmaster for the newspaper where to find it she replied, I was told they do not post letters to the editor.
You need to see this to understand my response, which I sent to the newspaper on Monday, July 18th. Here it is:
"To the Editors,
I am sorely disappointed in you, the editors the GR Press, for ignoring your responsibility to maintain a civil public discourse in the Public Pulse. While wide and passionate differences are both inevitable and tolerable, the letter from J. B. Wright in the July 17the Pulse went beyond stating a point to character assassination and outright bigotry.
I am sure, and fervently hope I am right, that a letter speaking in similar ways of African-Americans or Catholics or Muslims or Jews would not be published ("Immoral, dysfunctional, sordid, unnatural, deviant, decadent" and "perverse" all appeared in Wright's letter.) That you permit such letters when they speak of LGBT citizens distresses me. Indeed, I sincerely doubt that the other organs of the local press such as radio or television would allow such vitriolic language to be shared in their forums, knowing it would be roundly condemned. Is it only the absence of outrage that allows this?
If so, I call upon my colleague clergy to join me and demand that the GR Press refuse to publish letters that insult, inflame and belittle any fellow citizens. Differences of political opinion that cannot be expressed without character assassination are unacceptable in a free society. If the GR Press will not say so, then I do and ask others to speak up too. The local press in all forms needs to model respect for all our citizens, and that includes demanding that those who speak out through their publications are themselves respectful of others. A free nation and a free press must do this or we lose the mutual respect citizens must for a free society to live.
To J. B. Wright who I surmise founds his antipathy on religious bases, if the entirety of the Bible is authoritative, then Matthew 7 and 18 are as incumbent as Leviticus 18 and Romans 1. When you have mastered the former, then you may be qualified to speak on the latter.
Yours Truly,
W. Frederick Wooden, Senior Minister
Fountain Street Church
Chair, GR Urban League
member, West Michigan ACLU Advisory Board"
The Press declined to publish my letter. Hence this post. I suspect it will take more than one inconsequential pastor to get their attention.

1. Re: Few questionsmseberg Mar 17, 2013 6:31 PM (in response to 997381)Hello;
You can monitor a resolve a gap without these parameters. Manually for example.
Can Gap detection and resolution be possible without setting FAL_server or FAL_Client on the the standby? (Version 10.2.0.4 & 22.214.171.124)
Use a query like this to check :
On the Primary LNS collects redo data from the online redo log files. The log writer process never waits for the LNSn for any reason in release 10.2. But in I believe in 11 if you use SYNC LGWR will wait for acknowledgement from the LNS before telling the client a commit has occurred.
Is there any relationship between LGWR & LNS?
Oracle 10 is pretty old at this point and I cannot tell details without referring to the Oracle docs.
The LGWR process can be used to transmit redo data to remote destinations.
The biggest impact is your Standby database is not ready for Primary mode. The NOARCHIVELOG question has come here 3 times in the past week. My question is what advantage is this? A Standby mode database applies Archive from a Primary. If this leaves a copy on the Standby you can clean it up as soon as it applied using several well documented methods.
What impact does NOARCHIVELOG mode have on standby database?
Best Regards
2. Re: Few questionsLonion Mar 18, 2013 3:44 PM (in response to 997381)1)if you don't set the two parameters , you should observe by yourself when archive log gap occurs , then copy archive log gap to the standby database and register them.
2)just like mseberg said .
3) i think it must impact standby database .
From Document : 6.3 Applying Redo Data to Physical Standby Databases | http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/log_apply.htm#i1020855
look at the following statement :
By default, the redo data is applied from archived redo log files.
If NOARCHIVELOG mode have on standby database , where archived redo log files come from ?
3. Re: Few questionssandy121 Mar 18, 2013 4:16 PM (in response to mseberg)What I have read that starting from Oracle 11g onwards "The LGWR process can be used to transmit redo data to remote destinations" is a total myth. LNS (Log Writer Network Server) alone is responsible for redo transport services, please correct me if I am wrong in my understanding.

Romans 4:13-16New International Version (NIV)
13 It was not through the law that Abraham and his offspring received the promise that he would be heir of the world, but through the righteousness that comes by faith. 14 For if those who depend on the law are heirs, faith means nothing and the promise is worthless, 15 because the law brings wrath. And where there is no law there is no transgression.
16 Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may be by grace and may be guaranteed to all Abraham's offspring—not only to those who are of the law but also to those who have the faith of Abraham. He is the father of us all.

Kathryn Connelly-Fletcher was pronounced dead at McKenna Memorial Hospital after a tubing accident that occurred at Slumber Falls west of New Braunfels* Loop 337. Doug Phillips, with the Comal County Sheriffs Office Water Enforcement Tactics team, said Connelly-Fletcher was tubing down the Guaicfclupe River from the First Crossing to Gniene at about 2:20 p.m. Friday.

Crash kills Princess Diana PARIS (AP) — Princess Diana, who had been striving a build a new public and private life after her turbulent divorce, died Sunday from injuries in a crash that also killed her companion, Dodi Fayed. The 36-year-old princess died at 4 a.m. after going into cardiac arrest, doctors told a hospital news conference. The crash happened shortly after midnight in a tunnel along the Seine River at the Pont de l'Alma bridge. It came as paparazzi — the commercial photographers who constantly tail Diana — followed her car, police said The death was announced at a 6 a.m. hospital news conference by Dr. Alain Pavie, head of the cardiology department. "The death of the Princess of Wales fills us all with shock and deep grief," said British ambassador Michael Jay, who was at the hospital. Diana's death from cardiac arrest came after she suffered heavy internal bleeding in the early-morning accident. French radio said the paparazzi were trailing Diana's car on motorcycles. Five photographers were arrested it said.

CISD finance-director Abd Campos said state law required school districts to begin the tax rate adoption process by setting the maximum tax rate trustees would consider. CISD trustees set that rate at $1.73 per $ IOO valuation Thursday. The current tax rate is $1.64. "Now they can work their way down from $1.73 or stay ai it, but they can't work their way up," Campos said Tnutee Soon Watson, who moved to accept the rate, said the 9-ceni increase was to make up a loss of $2 million in state funding. The district is getting about $2 million less in state aid this year, based on increased property values. Watson said the district was losing money at the same time it was trying to accommodate more students. By ABE LEVY Staff Writer "I just hope people will understand what's going on," Watson said. "That nine cents is for the $2 million the stale took away. We'd be in good shape if the state would quit messing with us." Watson said a rate of $1.73 would fund the $46.9 million budget approved Turn to Tat rate, Pacie SA New Braunfels city officials told the Historic Landmark Commission to take a second look at its proposal to create an official city flag. City Manager Mike Shantis said he sent the proposal back to the commission for review after receiving telephone calls and letters objecting to the lack of Hispanic representation on the proposed flag design. 'The main question was, 'What is the basis for the design?'" he said. "We thought it would be appropriate to send (the proposal) hack to (the commission)." Commission members based the proposed flag on a seal by 14 German noblemen whose negotiation of a land grant northwest of New Braunfels bd to Prince Carl Solms' 1845 purchase of land that includedComal Springs. Hundreds of German immigrants came to New Braunfels after Prince Solms, of Braunfels, Germany, bought the land, which led to New Braunfels becoming a city. Prince Solms bought the land from Mexican nationals Rafael C. Garza and his wife, Maria Antonio Vera-mendi Garza for $1,111. The flag includes, among other items, the proposed seal with a bundle of arrows to symbolize the presence of Native Americans in the land grant area. Shands said the commission bas a Sept. 11 meeting scheduled during which members would have opportunity to discuss two options: revisions to the design or clarification to support the original proposal.

The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX
For patients undergoing lung resection, estimation of postoperative lung function utilizing chest X-ray planimetry (CXR-planimetry) may be as effective as more complicated radionuclide studies of pulmonary regional ventilation and perfusion (regional-V/Q).
We estimated postoperative FEV1 (ppo-FEV1) using CXR-planimetry and regional-V/Q for patients who had pulmonary function studies before and after lung resection between Jan 1, 2000 and Dec 31, 2002 at UT MD Anderson Cancer. The estimated values obtained by each method were compared with one another and with the actual values measured postoperatively. Pearson's comparison and linear regression tests were used to analyze this data. Patients' demographics, underlying diagnoses, and types of surgical interventions were also studied.
Twenty patients (M=14, F=6) with a mean age of 61 yr (range 39 to 73) were evaluated. Fourteen patients had non-small cell lung cancers, 4 had mesotheliomas, and 2 had lung metastases from extrathoracic cancers. Surgery consisted of pneumectomy in 6 patients, lobectomy in 9, bilobectomy in 3, and segmental resection in 2. There was a strong association between values of ppo-FEV1 estimated by CXR-planimetry test and by regional-V/Q (r=0.989, p=0.00001). Both methods were also equally effective for predicting postoperative FEV1. We found a significant strong association between the results of FEV1 measured postoperatively with those estimated preoperatively by CXR-planimetry (r=0.828, p=0.00004) and by regional-V/Q (r=0.828, p=0.000001).
Chest X-ray planimetry can be as effective as regional-V/Q for predicting postoperative lung function for patients undergoing lung resection.
Chest X-ray planimetry can be used as a simple and inexpensive alternative for preoperative estimation of pulmonary function after lung resection.

Ocean Marina Yacht Club Pattaya
Biggest Marina in Southeast Asia0
Ocean Marina Yacht Club near Pattaya is among the largest marinas in Asia, with plans for continued growth as the 380 floating berths fill up. It is also home to a four-star hotel, a luxury condo development, daily tours and excursions and a number of popular events.
Located about 10 km south of Pattaya, its distinctive twin towers are impossible to miss on the western side of Sukhumvit Road. The northern tower is home to the Ocean Portofino condominium while the southern one is the hotel, which boasts indoor and outdoor pools, a choice of fine dining restaurants and bars, grand meeting/banquet rooms and 51 high-quality nautical-themed guestrooms.
Ocean Marina Yacht Club is the home port for a large number of boat charter and cruise trip companies, including the unique Admirallica pirate-themed cruise. This and the other Island Cruises in Pattaya take full advantage of the ideal location of the marina, which is conveniently close to some of the most stunning tropical islands around. Prices for trips vary from company to company. The marina itself owns five yachts, which are available for private charter and range from a 26-foot catamaran up to a 48-foot luxury motor yacht.Read More

As well as the floating berths, the marina has extensive hardstanding. Travelifts can move anything up to 75-ton vessels into the waters of the marina, which are perfectly still thanks to a 1.5 km wave breaker. Boat owners can also take advantage of on-site boat building yards, sailmakers and chandlery, among other facilities. The marina is particularly popular for sailing as the nearby sea conditions are close to perfect all year, with consistent winds and few big waves.
While Ocean Marina Yacht Club hosts minor sailing races throughout the year (at least one every month), there are two major events to look out for. The Top of the Gulf Regatta in early-May is the only mutli-class sailing event in Southeast Asia and sees the marina filled with keelboats, ocean multihulls, one-design Platus, beach catamarans, dinghies and Optimisits. The Ocean Marina Pattaya Boat Show in late-November features over 18,500 sqm of exhibition space devoted to luxury lifestyle products.

How Do You Grade Out as a Negotiator?
Rich Hua stashed this in The Art of Sales
Stashed in: Negotiation, HBR, Harvard
Today I learned there are five negotiation bargaining styles, according to Michael Wheeler, a senior fellow at Harvard Business School and retired MBA Class of 1952 Professor of Management Practice, who taught negotiation for 20 years:
Empathetic Value-Creator (30 percent): Good at understanding the true needs of others and spotting problem-solving capabilities, you are less confident about asserting your own interests and maximizing your share.
Assertive Value-Claimer (10 percent): You are confident about advocating for your own interests and capturing your piece of the pie—even though your lack of empathy for others might mean there's less of it left to win.
Assertive Value-Creator (15 percent): You are good at advocating for yourself, but no matter how much you get, you tend to worry you should have claimed an even bigger share.
Relational Negotiator (25 percent): You are confident about your interpersonal skills, but not about how well you do in creating value and claiming your share. Maybe you are not giving yourself enough credit?
Outcome-Focused Negotiator (20 percent): Good at both creating and claiming value, you are not always good at relating to others or understanding what they—or you—really need.

Inner Thoughts
How can I love this man so dearly?
After all the pain he's caused and all the lies he's told.
Yet, I still can't imagine hating him or even being mad at him.
I don't even think he knows…well he probably will now.
Oh well, better then never I guess.
He says he knows me better than I do yet, he will never know…
Better yet understand how much he means to me.
How much I love him.
Even now all I can do is watch him and remember.
Remember every kiss, every touch.
Every time he held me or told me he loved me.
Even though it was all a lie, it felt so real to me.
Maybe that's what it means to love someone.
To believe every lie.
No, that can't be right.
To truly love someone is to see all of their flaws and love them just the same.
To shine a light on what is good in them when all they see is the bad….
Then again, I can't exactly complain about how things ended up.
If I really think about it, I never really thought I deserved him.
That I was good enough.
He's strong and brave and just so smart.
He's also sweet and caring and just so…
He deserves to be happy.
He deserves the life he's always wanted.
The wife. The kids.
If anyone deserves it, it's him.

#1 Ranked Children's Hospital by U.S. News & World Report
MyPatients provides referring primary care providers with secure access to their patients' information.
Boston Children's has launched the world's 1st program dedicated to offering hand transplants to children who qualify.
Innovation insider is a semi-monthly e-newsletter analyzes innovations at Boston Children's, other academic medical centers and from industry.
Read the latest blog by a Boston Children's doctor, clinician or staff member.
There are many ways you can help children and their families get the care they need.
If your child has intestinal failure, her body is unable to absorb the nutrients it needs from the food she eats. Many children with this condition receive nutrition intravenously, which allows nutrients to bypass the digestive system altogether and go right into the bloodstream. This treatment is known as parenteral nutrition (PN).
Many children do quite well on PN, but sometimes complications arise that make PN no longer an option. If your child can't receive PN, or has a digestive condition that cannot be treated, an intestinal or multivisceral transplant may be an option. Did you know?
How Boston Children's approaches an intestinal/multivisceral transplant
Whether your child needs an intestinal transplant, liver-intestinal transplant or multivisceral transplant, she is in good hands with us. Your child's team includes:
We also work closely with Boston Children's Center for Advanced Intestinal Rehabilitation (CAIR) - one of the world's premier programs for the treatment of short bowel syndrome, a complex and often devastating disorder caused by the loss of part of the small bowel.
We are grateful to have been ranked #1 on U.S. News & World Report's list of the best children's hospitals in the nation for the third year in a row, an honor we could not have achieved without the patients and families who inspire us to do our very best for them. Thanks to you, Boston Children's is a place where we can write the greatest children's stories ever told."

15. LEGO Marvel Super Heroes
The LEGO games have a reputation for delivering really charming experiences that treat licensed IPs with the care and attention to detail that they deserve. The latest entry, which brings together a whole host of characters from the Marvel universe, is easily one of Traveller's Tales' finest efforts yet. It makes excellent use of the Marvel license, treating even the most hardest of hardcore comic book fans with respect, serving up plenty of fan-filled goodies.
14. The Wonderful 101
Platinum Games is no stranger to wacky game experiences, and The Wonderful 101 is evidence to this fact. Seriously, what other studio would dream up a game where you control 100 characters to create weapons by drawing images on the GamePad? This game deserves recognition based on its creative merits alone. If you're looking for something a bit off the beaten path, search no more.
13. ZombiU
Ubisoft's zombie-centric launch title for Wii U is one of the console's most interesting games to date. Not only does the game ramp up the tension with high stakes thanks to a punishing death system, it also doesn't allow you to pause the game when shuffling through your backpack. Should you want to grab an item from your bag, you need to then direct your attention to the GamePad, pulling your eyes away from the main screen where an unsuspecting zombie could pounce out of nowhere. It serves up a truly tense experience rarely found in horror games today.
12. Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Director's Cut
Ever wished you could play a modernized version of Metal Gear Solid in first-person perspective? Look no further, as Deus Ex: Human Revolution is the game you so desperately crave. Stealth action has never felt so immersive and fun; however, the real draw comes from role-playing elements that have been embedded within the experience. Set in a future riddled with biomechanical augmentations, the game's protagonist Adam Jensen is able to enhance his abilities through an RPG-like progression system. It's incredibly rewarding and—more importantly—an absolute blast to play. Plus, the Director's Cut brings improved boss battles and Wii U GamePad support to the table, making it the best way to experience Human Revolution.
Perhaps one of Wii U's most underrated games is Little Inferno, a charming puzzle title set in front of a fireplace. In the game, the player is tasked with tossing things into the roaring flames, as doing so with different combinations of items will yield different results. Sure, it's simplistic in its premise, but that elegant simplicity is what makes it so amazing. Seriously, you owe it to yourself to download this little gem off the eShop.

Chapter 14: Mia
[EARTH] - Friday afternoon...
Mia shifted uncomfortably on her chair. What was I thinking? She thought. I'd have to be nuts to come to a place like this. Then she remembered the promise she made to her brother. That was the only reason she decided to waste her money and time to go see a psychic. She wasn't a strong believer in such things. But the cause of Max's coma was not physical, so she had to try out the spiritual. She looked around the room. Sitting two seats to her left was a crazy looking homeless man. The reason she assumed he was homeless was because his clothes were ragged and his shoes tattered. What Mia found curious was what he held between his hands: A cross. He seemed to be praying to a god Mia never heard before. She took her gaze off of him and looked at the old lady sitting opposite her. She was old, really old, and beside her sat a child. Her grandson maybe? Mia gussed. The kid played with a phone while the lady read silently some magazine. Alright, that's it. Mia stood up and was half way to the exit when her name was called: "Mia Miller."
Mia looked back to see the psychic lady, Otis, starring at her. "That's me." Mia said.
"Come in." Lady Otis bade. She looked like your typical gypsy from the movies: She wore loosed colorful clothing, lots of dangling jewelry with lots of rattling wrist bracelets, and a red scarf around her forehead. Mia found it a bit funny and had to make some effort not to laugh out loud. Maybe because she didn't believe in psychics, or maybe because the lady looked ridiculous in her peculiar dress. Mia had to keep reminding herself that she was here because her brother needed her.
"Please sit." Lady Otis said. Mia did so and Otis took the sit opposite her. "So," The gypsy said. "How can I help you today?"
"It's my brother actually." Mia explained. "He's been in a deep coma for almost a week now and the doctors cant find anything wrong with him. All the tests are coming back negative and he is just not waking up. I was just wondering if-" she gulped, not sure of how to say the rest. The hell with it, she thought, then said: "I-I don't know...if his spirit is lost or something..."
"Very well." Lady Otis said, calm as ever, and started searching though her stuff. She pulled out a few items and set them on the table: A purple key, a piece of old wood in the shape of a log, an oddly shape rock, and a broken lighter. All useless stuff, really. At least Mia found no meaning behind them. Otis took the items between her hands and started shaking them while murmuring in some odd language Mia never heard before. Then, unexpectedly, she threw the items unto the table, scattering then randomly. Or were they meant to land in a certain order? Mia did not know, nor did she really care.
"Pick one." Lady Otis said.
"I've tied these items to your destiny, child. Each one represents a different desire within your heart. You will be choosing the one connected to that with which you want most in this world. I can only read one fortune at a time, unfortunately, so choose one."
Mia honestly understood about maybe half of what the odd lady had said, but she just went with the flow. She stared at the items before her and tried to guess the meaning behind each. She could understand the key to be connected to some deep secrete or something that she didn't want revealed. But the rest...the rock, the piece wood, and the lighter...what did those meant? Lady Otis knew. "If you truly wish to save your brother," She said. "Then it does not matter which item you choose."
Mia looked up at the lady, nodded, then looked back down at the items. She did wanted to help Max very much. But how could she connected any of these stupid, useless, pieces of trash items to him? Whatever. She reached randomly and grabbed the broken lighter. Simply because it was the one that at least made a bit of sense to her, and the key...she definitely ignored the key entirely. She was in charge of her own secretes.
The gypsy lady smiled. She put away the rest of the items in a bag and asked Mia for the lighter. Mia gave it to her. "Let's begin."

This is a discussion on MP45 vs G21SF vs PT1911 within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Originally Posted by dsee11789 Customized Creationz Custom Gun Works Shop This guy puts ambi-safetys on P238s. He's doing one for my GF (enk5) at the ...
yeah that dude ain't cheap. plus u gotta send it to him.
what's the turn around on that P238?
As little as I like the M&P series, I would get that since you are familiar with the system.

You didn't mention the application of this .45, but your focus on capacity would indicate that it will be used for anticipated gunfights with multiple attackers. Is that really likely in your case? Or will the 8+1 rounds of a 1911 be as useful as the 13+1 of the Glock 21? If this is a range gun it won't matter. And you can carry spare magazines.
Maybe you should worry less about capacity and focus instead on other attributes of the .45.

I don't place much stock in preference of people that haven't shot both options. The Yam article is interesting, I forgot he tested the hk45.
As for the taurus, there's another popular forum where a member excitedly posted a new thread about buying a PT1911 for his carry pistol. He became irate when many of the members told him he'd made a mistake. When his pistol arrived the thumb safety snapped off while doing a function check. He got to eat a lot of crow.
I collect ammo, not guns.
In your case I would pick the M&P, in my case I would pick the Glock. For the same reasons go with what you are familiar with and if you are concerned about capacity carry a spare magazine or two.

Always carry a knife-they are handy to have
Always carry a reload-You probably won't need it but it is good insurance .

I have carried the G-21SF for 4 years now and as a duty weapon I really like it. I have large hands so the grip size is no problem. The M&P has different size grip inserts so that may be an issue for you. Off duty I carry a G-19 , G-23 or G-36 because of their size and weight compaired to the G-21 SF. In cooler weather (not to common in Florida) the G-21SF conceals well under a jacket or sweatshirt but under lighter clothing not so well. It is a great shooter and 14 rounds of .45 ACP Golden Saber is very comforting.

I vote M&P, since you are already familiar with that particular system. If capacity of the magazine is a concern in regards to the 45, carry extra magazines. I have the 45c and enjoy it. It has been very reliable.
Glock 30, SF model if you prefer. Smaller frame, more concealable, plus shove a G21 mag in it and you're back up to 13 rds.

Honestly check out a Glock 20SF with standard mags being 15 rounds it gives you the best firepower of the group. That would be my perfered full size.

I have a PT1911, and it's served me well. I haven't had any malfunctions in about 2,000 rounds. I kinda fell into it, accidentally. As well as it's held up for me, if I were to spring for a 1911 it would probably be a Springfield or S&W. They have several nice models between $800 and $1,000.
Between the M&P and the Glock; the Glock for me. The M&P is a nice gun, some prefer it's ergonomics over the Glock. But, the Glock has a better trigger out of the box. Even after some aftermarket trigger kits, the M&P still doesn't have the Glock trigger.
If you want a high capacity .45, don't forget about the XD line. I would actually buy an XD before an M&P, but that's just me.
The .45 ACP XD has a 13+1 capacity
The XDm .45 ACP also has a 13+1 capacity, and is interchangeable with the standard XD magazines.

Being familiar with a platform is always a plus. The M&P's are great guns, and you know them. The Glock's are proven, so are XD's, Hk's, Sig's..... many more options out there. Though, if it's a defensive pistol, I'd avoid the PT1911, because, it's a 1911 and a Taurus. As a range gun I'm sure it'd be fine. But I'd rather trust my life to the proven defensive firearms.... Glock, M&P's, XD's, Hk's, Sig's.............
