What Is the Greendex?
You've heard about it for years now—everyone's interested in being green. But do you really know how your personal choices are adding up? What about the choices of your fellow citizens? What behaviors are people adopting globally that have a positive impact on environmental sustainability? What has changed—and what hasn't—in the past few years?
This is the fifth time that National Geographic has partnered with GlobeScan to develop an international research approach to measure and monitor consumer progress toward environmentally sustainable consumption. The key objectives of this unique consumer tracking survey are to provide regular quantitative measures of consumer behavior and to promote sustainable consumption.
Why? We want to inspire action both among the millions that the National Geographic brand touches worldwide and among others who will hear about this study. A chief component of this effort is giving people a better idea of how consumers in different countries are doing in taking action to preserve our planet by tracking, reporting, and promoting environmentally sustainable consumption and citizen behavior.
This quantitative consumer study of 18,000 consumers in a total of 18 countries (14 in 2008, 17 in 2009 through 2012) asked about such behavior as energy use and conservation, transportation choices, food sources, the relative use of green products versus conventional products, attitudes toward the environment and sustainability, and knowledge of environmental issues. A group of international experts helped us determine the behaviors that were most critical to investigate.
The result: the 2014 National Geographic/GlobeScan Consumer Greendex, a scientifically derived sustainable consumption index of actual consumer behavior and material lifestyles across 18 countries. We will continue to track the Greendex over time, including comparability across the selection of countries representing both the developed and developing world.
Overall Results
Overall, we find that although environmental concerns have widely increased since 2012 and that climate change is presenting an increasingly felt threat to consumers, the pace and scale of uptake of sustainable consumption have remained too little over the past six years. Yet we have positive findings to point to. Compared with 2008, consumer habits have improved at least somewhat in all countries surveyed that year, except Brazil.
Top-scoring consumers of the 2014 Greendex study are in the developing economies of India and China, in descending order, followed by consumers in South Korea, Brazil, and Argentina. Indian and Chinese consumers also scored highest in 2012. American consumers' behavior still ranks as the least sustainable of all countries surveyed since the inception of the Greendex study in 2008.
One particularly bright spot in 2014 is in the food category—something that all consumers can personally relate to. Our composite measure of food habits shows improvements from 2012 in 11 countries as more people embrace local and organic foods.
An exploration of consumers' intentions to improve their habits in this year's Greendex study also reveals that those in Latin America and India appear to be the most easily influenced to change when informed about their personal impact on the environment. Results also show that consumers who already display behavior that is relatively sustainable and are told that their behavior is above average from an environmental point of view are more motivated to improve their behavior further than are consumers who display less sustainable habits. This suggests that positive reinforcement is likely a powerful tool for enabling behavior change among consumers.
Changes in consumer behavior indeed seem to be under way in some areas. As part of our 2014 study we investigate why, and we ask how the social and economic dynamics at play can be fostered to affect other types of consumption.

'Touch the motherfucker,' Zach said as he released his grip on my hand.
I couldn't believe my ears. Was the young stud actually telling me to touch his cock?
I felt like I was in the grandest possible wet dream. Afraid I might wake up at any moment, I quickly but gently reached under the waistband of the teenager's boxer-briefs. My hand made contact with Zach's half-hard cock. It felt hot and totally awesome. As I rested my hand on the stud's joint, I felt it begin to pulse and to get harder. The feeling shot directly to my head, making it swim with lust.
As Zach's joint continued to harden under my hand, I gathered my courage and began to gently rub it to encourage its growth. I also allowed my hand to touch the teenager's big balls. Man, it was incredible to feel this young stud's package respond to the loving manipulation of my hand!
'Yeah, girl. That's good. Feel your man's joint.'
Zach's words of encouragement made me crazy with a lustful desire to please him.
After a minute of gentle fondling, Zach's cock was completely hard. Jeez, I could feel it was a long, thick tool!
'Pull the fuckin' thing out of my boxers.'
Zach's instruction was like music to my ears.
I quickly withdrew my hand from under the waistband of Zach's boxer-briefs and, reaching into the front opening, pulled the huge hard tool out of the opening.
The young stud's fuckin' hard cock was throbbing so close to my face I couldn't even focus on it. Pulling my head back a few inches, I was immediately hit with the intoxicating smell of Zach's crotch. It was a heady mixture of soapy crotch smell and the unmistakable smell of precum. The smell shot to my brain like the most powerful aphrodisiac on the planet.
I was on a lust high as I drank in the sight and smell of Zach's amazing cock. I stared mesmerized. The fucking thing was rock hard and gently throbbing. I could see precum beginning to leak out of the big mushroom head.
I don't know how long I stared at his beautiful tool before Zach's voice broke my reverie.
'Jack me, girl,' he whispered. 'Make me feel good.'
There was nothing I wanted to do more in the moment than to make this young stud feel good.
I reached over and started to give the handsome teen a hand job. My head spun as I worked the young stud's joint with my hand.
In my excitement at handling Zach's hard tool, I must have been jerking him too fast.
'Take it slow, girl. Make it last. Work my hard cock nice and slow. Get a good slow rhythm going on that fuckstick.'
Eager to do whatever would give the young stud the most pleasure, I slowed the pace of my loving stroking of his rigid cock.
I stroked the big tool from top to bottom, spending some time working his big mushroom cockhead with my fingers. The stud would leak precum and I used that to lubricate his cockhead and thick shaft as I continued my slow hand job.
Occasionally, Zach would moan quietly as I worked his tool. To me, the sound was like the finest symphony.
'Feels good, girl,' Zach said. I could hear lust in his voice. 'Keep working my cock with your hand. And don't forget my fuckin' balls.'
His balls? Fuckin' yeah! I reached back into the teenager's boxers and pulled his big balls out in the open. Wow, the stud's balls were hot to my touch and felt incredible in my hand. I dropped Zach's rigid cock and focused on gently stroking and pulling his big balls. Knowing they were full of the young stud's hot cum make me wild with lust to worship them.
After a few minutes working his balls I moved back to his cockhead to find that my manipulation of his balls had made him unleash a big load of precum. Excited by this, I used it as a natural lube to go back to working his big cockhead and thick shaft with my hand.
I repeated this cycle several times, working Zach's big balls to generate an additional load of precum and then using my hand to smear the sticky stuff over his cockhead and shaft.
As I began to use one hand on his cock and one on his balls, Zach interrupted.
'Pull my fuckin' pants and boxers down.'
The young stud helpfully lifted his ass off the seat. I was at an awkward angle, but that didn't deter me from grabbing his jeans and boxer-briefs at both sides and beginning to gently pull them down. I was leaning over his crotch as I struggled with the teenager's clothes and when they cleared his crotch his rigid tool popped clear and immediately slapped back against his stomach with a loud snap.
When I paused for a moment to stare worshipfully at the rigid symbol of Zach's masculinity, Zach spoke impatiently.
'Fucker, I told you to get these goddamn clothes down!'
I pulled myself away from the sight of Zach's leaking teenage bone and, with some effort, managed to get his jeans and boxers down to his ankles.
Zach had been unbuttoning his shirt while I pulling down his pants and when my head returned to his midsection I was greeted by his awesome chest and hard abs. His hard leaking cock jutted upwards from his crotch toward his chest. Man, there could not be any finer sight in the universe! I never wanted the moment to end.
'OK, girl, now it's time to finish your man off. I want you to suck the fuckin' cum out of my cock and balls.'
Dazed by the sight of Zach's awesome crotch and torso, I just hovered there without moving.
'Do it, bitch. Get the fuck down on me, NOW!'
With that, Zach reached over and, placing his right hand around my neck, began pulling my head into his crotch. He wasn't rough with me, but I knew I didn't have any choice in the matter and needed to submit to his demand to be sucked.
Without further urging, I stuck out my tongue and began licking his mushroom cockhead. I lapped up the precum that was coming out of his head and circled my tongue around the head. The taste of the teenager's cock and precum made me more turned on than I had ever been before in my life.
I took the head into my mouth and lovingly tongued it. It felt so fucking natural to me to service the stud this way.
A minute later, I felt the pressure of Zach's hand on my neck begin to push me slowly down on his big cock. I let the hot cock push its way into my mouth, doing my best to work the big tool with my tongue, lips and mouth. Jeez, the stud was hung big!
Zach's hand stopped pushing down, but he left it on my neck as I started to piston up and down on his cock, not quite taking half of it into my mouth.
Zach's hand never left my neck as he began to thrust his hips up on each down stroke of my head. I would gag a little whenever the big tool would hit my throat, but did my best to keep servicing the handsome teen the way he wanted.
'Good, girl. Suck your man's cock. You're making that hard fucker feel real good. You don't need to deep-throat me right now. You will learn to do that in time. Right now, you need to work the cock good until you earn your reward. You want my cum, bitch? You want this hard cock to dump a big load of cum into your throat hole, bitch?'
Crazy with lust, I could only eagerly moan my agreement as Zach held my neck and worked his hips up and down to force his big dick in and out of my mouth.
'Yeah, bitch, I know you like this big cock. Well, you're doin' real good. Get ready for your reward, girl. I'm going to cum, and you're gonna drink it all the fuck down!'
There was no room for disagreement with Zach's instructions and it didn't even occur to me not to do exactly what he told me.
A moment later, the teen's big balls drew up fast and Zach began a series of quiet grunts as his cockhead swelled and like a firehose began shooting out one hot cum load after another into my submissive mouth. The feeling of having Zach cum in my mouth was overwhelming. I wanted desperately to hold all of the stud's cum in my mouth, but there was simply too much of it. It began dripping out the sides of my mouth. Instinctively, I began to swallow the hot cum in little gulps. I could feel the teen's warm spooge make its way down my throat into my belly. I swallowed again and again until I had taken all of the teenager's babymakers into my tummy. The warmth in my belly was unreal. It felt so fantastic. There was something about servicing this demanding teen and then eagerly swallowing his load into my belly that seemed totally natural and satisfying to me.
I nursed Zach's still-hard tool until I had squeezed and swallowed all of the residual cum out of the head.
Zach gently released my head, and I got myself back into my own seat.
My head was spinning and my senses were totally filled with the taste and smell of the young stud and his cum.
I glanced down at the crotch of my jeans and was startled to realize I had cum a second time in my pants without touching myself while Zach had made me go down on him.
Zach looked over at my crotch as he pulled his boxers and jeans over his still-hard cock.
'Did you cum while you sucked me off, girl?'
Looking up at the handsome teen's face, I immediately admitted it.
'Good bitch.'
To be continued.

Charleston Area Medical Center is doing a good job of retaining residents or drawing them back to the area following out-of-state fellowships, said Sharon Hall, president of the CAMC Health Education Research Institute.
Hall presented an annual report at Wednesday morning's meeting of the CAMC Board of Trustees.
"Upon graduation, on average, 33 percent enter practice in West Virginia and many come back after fellowships in other states," she said.
Graduates leave the state in order to find slots to pursue further training in their specialties because there may not be an adequate number of opportunities to do so here.
"Forty-nine percent of our staff were trained in the residency program here," she said. "CAMC is probably above average in retaining residents or bringing them back to the area. They have a good learning and training experience here. Every student is a prospective employee."
Of 171 students now in the program, 156 are medical students and the remainder are in pharmacy and psychology programs. Match week was recently held when it was determined where students may go regarding their respective specialties.
In the match, CAMC offered 49 positions.
Meanwhile, Ed Welch, who heads the quality committee, reported the challenge of eliminating patient falls.
Patients may believe they are strong enough to get out of bed on their own when they fall. Addressing the problem is challenging because using more restraints is not a desired option, he said.
"It's hard to get your head around that one," Welch said.
He said another issue is employee back injuries when staff try to lift patients.
However, the overall environment of care and safety is good, he said. "We are being conscientious."
In another matter, the topic of using robotic surgery is being reviewed as officials measure the cost and outcome of the procedure.
Gynecologist Gina Busch cautioned that depending upon the type of surgery that study could be comparing apples and oranges.
Larry Hudson, chief financial officer, said revenue was down in January due to the water crisis and a decline in patient admissions. Admissions were down 5 percent overall, and 18 percent at Women and Children's. He said part of that could be because children were out of school a good part of January and therefore not spreading illnesses.
It was reported that cash flow is down $2 million to date this year, but they system has been able to recoup much of that loss due to the Teays Valley merger and the expansion of Medicaid.
Three employees were recognized as recipients of the "Heart and Soul" award for their dedication.
Sherri Keffer, who works on 4 South at Memorial Hospital, and Kevin Parker, a pharmacist at Memorial, have worked together to help patients understand medications and be properly educated on their use upon being discharged.
Sharon Anderson, who works in the cafeteria at Memorial, was recognized for getting to know her customers and addressing their special dietary needs.

If you'd like to help UNC meet its goals for sustainability - from energy conservation, recycling and eco-efficient landscaping, to student activities and coursework - consider adding your expertise and energy to the UNC Sustainability Council or one of its subcommittees. Membership is open to faculty, staff and students.
The council and its subcommittees - Buildings/Equipment/Operations, Communications, Student and Community Engagement, and Academics and Curriculum - identify and create opportunities to improve existing sustainability efforts, adopt new sustainable practices and communicate those opportunities to the campus community.
Each group meets once a month and members typically spend additional time doing project work such as drafting policies/procedures, designing brochures or researching potential new projects.
For more information about the Sustainability Council, its subcommittees and the university's sustainability, visit the Sustainability at UNC website.
To join the council or a subcommittee, contact any council member or co-chairs Richard Jurin or Kirk Leichliter.

Legal Professional: Build Your Business
Dear Anonymous,
There is no law in California which specifically provides that the landlord must reimburse you for an overly-high water bill as a result of the landlord's failure to repair a water leak. That being said, I think that any judge in California would require the landlord to reimburse you for the excess cost while there was a leak. The problem is, due to the fact that no law specifically governs this, your only remedy for collecting the reimbursement from your landlord is to demand it, and if they do not pay you, sue them in small claims court. There is no law in California under which you can lawfully deduct the excess water cost from your rent. Had you followed the proper notice procedures, you could have elected to hire someone yourself to perform the repairs, then deduct the cost of the repair from your rent, but that law only extends to repairs and not reimbursement for utilities. Make the demand in writing, and if the landlord does not reimburse you, your only options are to either sue the landlord in Small Claims Court (which will likely put you in a very bad position with the landlord), or wait until the end of your tenancy, keeping track of the expense, and demand reimbursement. Waiting, however, has its own risks as the statute of limitations on your claim against the landlord may expire. Your in a situation where you are kind of "damned if you do, damned if you don't." Good luck.

THE future of Chepstow Carnival is under threat after its organisers have pulled out, blaming "a lack of manpower."
In a letter to Chepstow town council seen by the Argus, Chepstow Round Table group treasurer Stuart Dent said the event, which has seen thousands pack the streets over the years, could be off indefinitely.
He wrote: "During recent times many organisations have recorded a gradual decline in membership and Chepstow Round Table is no exception.
"It is therefore with regret that Chepstow Round Table has made the decision that due to lack of manpower, they, as a single organisation, will be unable to organise, manage and run the Chepstow Carnival this year and in future years."
Mr Dent told the Argus: "We have considered all the activities we put on throughout the year, from the fireworks on November 5 to charity dinners and made a very difficult decision. As the carnival is exceptionally resource intensive we felt it would have to be cut from this year's programme."
Despite the cancellation of the 2012 renewal due to bad weather, the event was going from strength to strength, according to Round Table secretary Robin Harvey.
He said more than 15 floats and up to 20 stalls were due to entertain the crowds from the Severn Bridge Social Club to the river side, an increase on previous years.
The letter goes on to say the Round Table would give £1,000 to an organisation willing to organise the carnival and the relevant documentation.
Mr Harvey appealed for interested parties to get in touch.
"I would like to see the carnival continue and for that to happen we need good support," he said yesterday.
Chepstow councillor Armand Watts said: "Chepstow Carnival in its heyday was the major summer event as far as Chepstow is concerned.
"A lot of community groups put a tremendous amount of effort into it and it brings people to the town centre.
"If it's not put on a lot of people will lose out and the next generation will miss an enjoyable event for the community."
The matter is due to be discussed at next week's Chepstow Town Council meeting.

RECIPES: Recipe Details
Muffaletta Burgers with Olive Salad
I was fortunate to visit New Orleans many years ago and was introduced to the Muffaletta sandwich. Wow! What a creation! That was the inspiration for my recipe.
Olive salad:
1/2 cup finely chopped pimento-stuffed green olives
1/2 cup finely chopped pitted Kalamata olives
1/2 cup finely chopped drained cocktail onions
1/2 cup finely chopped roasted red peppers
3 tablespoons capers
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
2 teaspoons oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons celery seed
2 pounds ground chuck
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse ground black pepper
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 teaspoon sea salt
Vegetable oil, for brushing the grill
12 slices Genoa Salami
6 slices Provolone Cheese, halved
12 – 3/4"slices Italian bread
6 slices Mortadella, folded to fit bread
• Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill with a cover, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high. • To make the olive salad, combine the green olives, Kalamata olives, cocktail onions, red peppers, capers, parsley, garlic, oregano, pepper, and celery seed in a medium bowl and stir to blend well. Set aside, stirring occasionally. • To make the patties, spread the chuck out in a large shallow pan. Sprinkle evenly with parsley, garlic, pepper, celery seed, and salt. Handling the meat as little as possible to avoid compacting it, mix well. Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and form the portions into patties to fit the shape of the bread. • When the grill is ready, brush the grill rack with vegetable oil. Place the patties on the grill rack, cover, and cook until browned on the bottom, about 3 to 4 minutes. Turn patties and place 2 slices of salami and 2 halves provolone cheese slices evenly on each patty. Cook until done to preference, about 3 to 4 minutes more for medium. During the last few minutes of cooking, place bread slices on the outer edges of the rack to toast lightly, turning slices once to toast both sides. • To assemble the burgers, on one side of 6 bread slices, spread 3 T. olive salad. Add 1 mortadella slice, 1 burger patty and equal portions of remaining olive salad. Add remaining bread slices on top and serve. Makes 6 burgers.
I like this burger paired with a glass of Shiraz.

The wick filter for this humidifier can be found by clicking here.
The Slant/Fin GF-240 Germ-Free Cool Mist Humidifier humidifies the room with a comforting mist that is virtually 100% free of infectious bacteria, molds and spores. As the only Slant/Fin cool mist humidifier that uses the germicidal power of ultraviolet light to deliver virtually 100% germ-free mist, it features an exclusive dual germicidal process which is independent laboratory tested. It's also safer for allergy and asthma sufferers because absolutely no white dust is produced using the GF240; minerals do not enter the room air and settle on surfaces. This humidifier is far more effective than ordinary cool mist evaporative humidifiers, which do not kill bacteria, molds and spores.

The X Factor picked up the prize for most popular talent show at the National Television Awards.
It beat rival programmes Britain's Got Talent, Dancing on Ice and Strictly Come Dancing to grab the gong.
Judges Simon Cowell and Cheryl Cole were joined on stage by 2010's winner Matt Cardle to collect the trophy.
But it was the presenters of the award that got the biggest shock... event organisers asked two young members of the audience to do the job!
Ant and Dec won the Best Presenter prize for the TENTH year running.
But it was bad news for Doctor Who. The show has landed the Most Popular Drama prize each year since 2005 until it was beaten this year by Waterloo Road.
EastEnders was crowned top soap and also picked up awards for Most Popular Newcomer for Ricky Norwood, who plays Fatboy, and Outstanding Serial Drama Performance for Lacey Turner who plays Stacey Slater.

But his is not a name that has the same must-buy status as Marc Jacobs, because his focus is a narrow one. You have to be a committed woman - either to the gym or to the surgeon's knife - to fit into his sculpted shift dresses and hugging pencil skirts. All designers show their outfits on models the same size, but the labels that feel less exclusive create looks that can be easily translated onto the bodies of real women. Rodriguez cuts it tight, and so cuts out the majority of females. For those within his thin catchment area, Rodriguez shows some stunningly realised clothes. At his spring/summer 2003 collection the dresses were as flattering to this small shape as usual, mostly to the knee and working best in simple colour black and white tones. Occasionally there was the odd splash of red or blue across the hem or shoulders.
Even if most women are not able to wear his clothes, the collection served as a useful tool for checking off the trends that are becoming prevalent on the New York catwalk. Trousers will definitely be cropped next season and the waists on skirts and dresses will be high. A belt is worn on the waist to define this new silhouette.
Fashion in six months' time is threatening to turn high maintenance. It is a style that is not going to win him new fans, but for the women who can maintain that uptown Manhattan look, Rodriguez's clothes are just what they want.

If you thought all of the world's most useless machines were found in the pages of SkyMall or on As Seen On TV infomercials, think again. Those products represent the cream of the crop produced by tinkerers in their home workshops. The following devices, on the other hand, set technological progress back decades or more.
Taxidermied mouse USB drive
Here's the thing. With all of the online file storage options out there right now the standard USB drive is on the brink of obsolesce. Clearly the future is in the cloud, not on USB drives – especially USB drives made out of dead mice. If that wasn't enough, its eyes are actually LEDs that light up with each data transfer. The only memory this drive is truly useful for are the terrifying visions stuck in your brain that wake you up in the middle of the night. Zachaholic via Nerd Approved
Lego Facebook "Like" button lamp
This Facebook-themed lamp is made out of Lego and utilizes an Arduino microcontroller, some LEDs and some code to flash whenever you Like something on Facebook. So, it's a Lego Like button that lights up when you like stuff. A machine that you spend hours building so it can alert you to something you know you've just consciously done. Brilliant. Redpepper via Nerd Approved
Cylon toilet paper holder
This wall-mounted toilet paper holder is made out of welded steel and features a scrolling LED light so it resembles a Cylon from Battlestar Galactica. Sure, it doesn't have a body, but that LED eye trailing back and forth is unsettling. Is it thinking behind that metal shell? Watching you…judging you? Waiting to strike when you are most vulnerable? supertrone's Etsy via Nerd Approved
The Electronic Instant Camera
Inventor Niklas Roy describes himself as an "inventor of useless things". Based on that, I would have to say that this Electronic Instant Camera is the antithesis of the invention of the light bulb – a real masterstroke. He describes it as "combination of an analog b/w videocamera and a thermal receipt printer. The device is something in between a Polaroid camera and a digital camera." Instead of storing pictures digitally, it prints out the image directly on a cheap roll of receipt paper. Subjects also have to stand still for three minutes in order for the process to capture a crappy, pixelated photo. Even Abraham Lincoln had an easier time getting his portrait taken. Niklas Roy
If you want your own double rainbow moment all the way, the Robo-Rainbow can oblige by automatically spray painting a cheerful bit of vandalism on just about any large wall. Of course, that euphoric feeling you get right afterwards is probably from huffing paint. Adafruit via Nerd Approved
ISS Notify Lamp
Space junkies might be interested in this bit of homemade machinery since it automatically alerts you when the International Space Station is looming overhead. The lamp uses an Arduino microcontroller and bit of script that pulls data on the whereabouts of the ISS and lights up whenever the station passes over your location. It seems kind of pointless at first, but could it actually be an incredibly important warning system? I mean, you never know what they have cooking up there. Are they reading our minds from space? Get on that tinfoil hat whenever this thing lights up. Mechanical Integrator via Nerd Approved
USB-Powered Typewriter
Described as "new and groundbreaking innovation in the field of obsolescence", this DIY project brings back the feel of an old manual typewriter by using it as a keyboard for any USB-compatible computer. Interestingly enough, this product is actually for sale – and he even has versions that are compatible with the iPad. $749-$899. USB Typewriter via CubicleBot
Beer pouring robot
If only someone could build an awkward machine that takes a minute-and-a-half to pour a glass of beer! That would certainly make my life easier. I'm poking fun, but if version 2.0 could bring the beer to my lips I would buy it in a second. YouTube via That's Nerdalicious
Fart-operated TV remote
Thanks to the obligatory Arduino and a CH4 methane sensor, this device will change the channel whenever it is placed in close proximity to a television and someone that just ate Taco Bell. The idea is to hide the device in the couch cushions as a joke. Imagine your victim's surprise when they discover that their wind has some sort of magical power over machines. Perhaps they will briefly consider making a costume and becoming the worst superhero of all-time. Instructables via Nerd Approved
The world's most useless machine
Finally, we arrive at the pinnacle of uselessness. The machine dubbed "the world's most useless" first made waves on the internet a couple of years ago and was eventually sold as a kit so people with the right skills can enjoy all the heart-racing excitement at home. The functionality of that basic version was confined to a single action – it turned itself off whenever you try to turn it on. However, version 2.0 has been upgraded so that it will eventually grow tired of your insolence and flip out spinning in a fit of rage. YouTube via Nerd Approved

The rooms were spotlessly clean and well equipped. We were quite late arriving but the staff were very obliging. The hotel is reasonably well situated for drivers in transit from Switzerland to the Italian ports. It is not really geared up for evening/night service. For example, I don't think they would be able to take incoming calls from family after a certain time.
The room was very cold.

To itemize or not to itemize, that is the question. Let's see what the Tax Man has to say:
- Whether to itemize deductions on your tax return depends on how much you spent on certain expenses last year. Money paid for medical care, mortgage interest, taxes, charitable contributions, casualty losses, and miscellaneous deductions can reduce your taxes. If the total amount spent on those categories is more than the standard deduction, you can usually benefit by itemizing.
The standard deduction amounts are based on your filing status and are subject to inflation adjustments each year. For 2006, they are:
Single $5,150
Married Filing Jointly $10,300
Head of Household $7,550
Married Filing Separately $5,150
There are a few exceptions, conditions, etc that the Tax Man explains in his post, so check it out. Also, keep in mind that itemizing is fun. Yes, really. —MEGHANN MARCO

LEAGUE CITY, Texas - A League City man is now facing charges after his wife was found dead in their home in the 800 block of Driftwood.
Investigators said an off-duty League City police officer who lives in the neighborhood first called police around 2 p.m. Saturday.
The officer's neighbor, 49-year-old Felipe Alberto Fernandez, had came to his home with an ominous message.
"He was approached by a Hispanic male saying that there was something wrong with his wife, and we weren't sure what the circumstances were," said officer Reagan Pena, with the League City Police Department.
Patrol officers responded to the scene and at that is when they found Fernandez's wife, 33-year-old Katrina Gonzales, deceased.
Although the official cause of death will be determined by the medical examiner, signs of blunt force trauma were observed.
Fernandez is charged with murder and bond is set at $150,000.
Neighbors told Local 2 the couple ran a day care out of the home and had two elementary-aged children.
"He was down to earth, a real nice guy," said neighbor John Dailey. "I would never expect this, never. He seemed really nice."
Others in the neighborhood expressed shock when learning about the woman's death. Steve Montgomery called it a tragedy.
"The kids play in the street, they play in the yards. It's just a good, very quiet neighborhood," said Montgomery. "So for something like this to happen, it's upsetting."

PARIS (Dec. 26)
The German postal authorities over the weekend began postmarking letters bound for neutral countries, including the United States, with the yellow-inked slogans, "Great Britain Means Israel" and "Abraham Is the Father of the English," it was learned here today.
The practice was said to be in line with the new policy of Paul Joseph Gcebbels, Reichsminister of Propaganda, to identify the Jews with Britain, since the former identification with Communism and Soviet Russia had been dropped after conclusion of the Soviet-German non-aggression pact. Informed sources in Paris expressed doubt whether the United States would permit mail bearing the new postmarks to be delivered, on the ground they were a violation of international postal regulations.
However, envelopes bearing these postmarks began to pour into the Netherland, Belgium and other small European neutral countries in large quantities over the Christmas weekend. Even Jewish refugees in these countries received Christmas greeting cards bearing the yellow postmarks on the envelopes. In most cases the cards were sent anonymously, leading to the supposition here that they might have been mailed by Nazi sources in order to spread German propaganda through the mails.

Math: not for girls since 1898.

Now, see, this kid deserves full marks. Write a bad question, get a smart-ass answer.
This essay on 2 Girls 1 Cup (which I will not be linking you to) is a spectacular monument in film criticism. I can just picture the poor dumb teacher's face as she gets to the cup being filled, and then a quick and horrible Google search.

Imported Message: Posted by marvelous mar ( firstname.lastname@example.com ) from Washington dc, Maryland and N. Virginia area.
I'm an independent filmmaker who lives in the Washington dc area. I need to find help with blood squibs for a summer 2003 short film production. Anyone that knows how to work them, build them or hire someone who can pull off a "Sunnie shot em up scene at toll booth in Godfather" I'm willing to hire a gunmaster for the low-budget production. please someone out there send help. thanks.
to answer your question, i'm also an filmmaker on a fairly low budget, and i've researched the topic of blood squibs. First of all, you must be licensed with the state to handle them. Second, these professionals for hire do not come cheap at all, most cost more than I and probably you can afford. I would look to use compressed gas bullet hits instead for your film. They can work just as well. Hope this helped
Hey. Here is a method that works without squibs. I have tested it, with my own personal tweaks, and will film it in two weeks. [url]http://www.indiehelp.com/jump/?http://www.exposure.co.uk/eejit/blood/ind... :P
Condoms, runny ketchup (or your own mix), string, and some kind of very small explosive can work wonders

A little girl who may need a liver transplant one day has appeared in a video to raise awareness of organ donation,.
Sophie Barwell, from Heybridge, was born with biliary atresia, where bile ducts are inflamed and damaged, causing scarring on the liver.
It is a lifelong condition, with no cure, and there is a five per cent chance the two-year-old may need a transplant by the age of ten.
Sophie became involved in the video after her mum, Lisa Barwell, saw a notice on Facebook group Liver Mums.

NEW YORK (Jul. 9)
Nikita Khrushchev, head of the Communist Party in the Soviet Union, was charged today with being "personally connected" with the revived anti-Semitism now developing in countries behind the Iron Curtain. The charge was made in an article in the New York Times written by C.L. Sulzberger, chief correspondent of the leading American newspaper. Cabling from London, Mr. Sulzberger says:
"Ugly intimations of anti-Semitism, tolerated if not encouraged by the Communist regimes in power, are again appearing in Eastern Europe. There are hints that Marxist leaders, bewildered by the great post-Stalin debate, are either permitting or encouraging a new search for racial scapegoats to avoid blame for past or present ideological confusion. And, according to available evidence, Khrushchev is personally connected with this unpleasant recurrence of racial prejudice.
"When Khrushchev was prime minister of the Ukraine after World War II he issued regulations barring Jews from important local positions. He was the first Premier of a Soviet republic to prohibit activity of Jewish theatres, schools and publishing houses. He forbade writing and acting in the Yiddish language and tolerated an anti-Semitic outbreak in Kiev so serious that Stalin sent Malenkov to investigate.
"Khrushchev and Suslov are reputed to be the leaders of an anti-Semitic group within the present Moscow Presidium. Last March, when Soviet leaders attended a state funeral in Warsaw for the late President of Poland, Beirut, Khrushchev made several indiscreet observations that tended to confirm his reputation for prejudice. He was heard to remark: 'Even a second-rate Kowalski (a typically Polish name) is more useful than a first-rate Rosenblum (atypically Jewish name).' During a meeting of the Polish Communist Central Committee he observed: 'You have too many Abrahamoviches here.' Mr. Sulzberger reports.
Pointing out that the two principal Warsaw bosses now are Marshal Rokossovsky and Ochab, who succeeded Bierut, Mr. Sulzberger writes: "Rokossovsky has a reputation in the army for anti-Semitism and is held responsible for dismissing several hundred Jewish officers. Ochab is a table-thumping militant and Khrushchev nominee. One of his first moves after gaining power was to fire Jakub Berman, detested party theorist and a Jew.
The Times correspondent quotes Jewish refugees from Poland reporting: "Anti-Semitism always existed among-the masses. Now it comes from above. It is an echo of what is happening in Russia. It is said that Khrushchev is more prejudiced even than Stalin. In the Ukraine anti-Semitism is becoming increasingly intense." He reveals that in May, five Jews were killed during riots in Kiev, the Ukrainian capital. A few days later the synagogue in Lodz, Poland, was desecrated.

By clicking Submit, you accept the Adobe Terms of Use.
You should have a basic knowledge of the Flash Professional user interface and a basic knowledge of working with FLA files. Certain features, such as H.264 codec support, are available only in Flash Player 9.0.115 and later.
Adobe Flash Professional CS5 offers a range of tools and features that allows you to add video easily to web pages. To help you achieve best results, this learning guide will help you understand video development and deployment techniques.
This section of the Video Learning Guide for Flash provides an overview of key concepts and terminology related to web video and the video formats supported by Adobe Flash Player.
The following steps describe how to create web video content and publish it online. The procedures for creating and publishing on-demand (prerecorded) video are different from those for creating and publishing live video.
Note: To capture and publish live video, use Flash Player and Adobe Flash Media Server. For more information, see the Flash Media Server Developer Center. For higher-quality live video, you can also use Flash Media Live Encoder.
Video and the web seem ideally matched. Video is the medium that most closely echoes our day-to-day visual experiences, and the web is a boundless playground filled with interesting content. You might expect, therefore, that thousands of compelling websites would integrate video with data, content, and interactive controls to create rich experiences that go beyond what is possible with video on a television set.
Unfortunately, early video content on the web was often relegated to a simple rectangle of content playing back on a computer monitor, usually in a separate pop-up window covering the website page that spawned it. The video images were often small and ugly, and the overall experience was poor.
In the past, several technical challenges kept designers from using video content to its full potential, including the following:
Video is a data-intensive format, requiring megabytes of data to display even short video clips. The growth of broadband has greatly reduced this technical obstacle. Increasingly large numbers of site visitors have the bandwidth required to receive video content via the web, but file size can still present a problem for many visitors.
The tool sets for creating interactivity, navigation control, and fusion of video with other rich media content had not been standardized. Furthermore, the majority of video playback clients were not pre-installed on most visitors' systems, so many visitors had to pause to download a plug-in or third-party application before they could view video.
Most video formats for the web offer no rich media capabilities beyond playback of video in a rectangular window. Fortunately, video created for Adobe Flash Player (which presents video content seamlessly and in context, in a form that site visitors can view using Flash Player) overcomes these issues. For more information, be sure to learn about NTSC and PAL video standards.
Video encoded for Adobe Flash Player comes in two "container" formats: FLV and F4V. F4V is the newer format, and the video that it contains is encoded with the H.264 codec. F4V playback is supported in Flash Player 9.0.115 and later. The FLV format supports the On2 VP6 codec for Flash Player 8 and later. Flash Player 9.0.115 and later can also play back any MPEG-4 compatible format including MP4, M4U, MOV, MP4V, 3GP, and 3G2.
The FLV and F4V video formats offer technological and creative benefits that allow designers to create immersive, rich experiences that fuse video together with data, graphics, sound, and dynamic interactive control. The advantages of using Flash Player to present video online appear below.
Since the introduction of the FLV video format in 2002, Flash Player has become the most widely installed Internet video client, running on over 98% (Flash Player 9 ubiquity December 2010) of all Internet-connected personal computers. Also, Flash Player runs on a wide variety of platforms and operating systems. The ubiquity of Flash Player ensures that most visitors can view Flash video without downloading additional plug-ins, so you can reach more people with lower development, testing, and support costs.
Web-based video integrates seamlessly into your website, and you can add a new "skin" on your video content to customize your branding and design unique video playback controls. You can also set the size and aspect ratio of your video, and the video can dynamically change based on a data source.
Video for Adobe Flash Player provides immersive and interactive experiences. Because Flash Player treats video as simply another media type, you can layer, script, and control video content just like any other object in a SWF file. Video is an integral part of the viewing experience, as opposed to a separate pop-up window that interrupts the experience.
The following image shows a sophisticated example of a web page containing web video synchronized to text and graphics. The superimposed dotted blue outline shows the boundary of the area where the SWF file is displayed; the dotted red outline shows the boundary of the area where the web video (FLV or MPEG-4) file is displayed, as part of the SWF content (see Figure 1). A SWF file can contain graphics, text, and client logic (for creating video controls, for example). It can refer to an external video file, and it plays in Flash Player. The video file contains primarily audio and video, and it plays inside a SWF file.
The following is a list of tools, features, servers, and services that you can use to create and deliver compelling web video experiences.
Flash Professional CS5 is the primary tool used for producing the Flash video user interface:
In addition to Flash CS4 Professional, you will most likely find that using some additional tools will greatly increase your video production and delivery options:
Before you can use video on your website, you need to decide how to deliver the video: either as a progressive download or as a streaming video. (One important distinction to note is that video files download progressively by default. Use of Flash Media Server is required to deliver streaming video.)
Note: A third option is to embed video in the Timeline of the Flash FLA file. However, this is recommended only for very short video clips with no audio track.
Table 1 can help you decide which delivery option to use. Find your situation in the left column and then see which delivery options are recommended. If two options are marked, then either one is recommended.
Table 1. Web video delivery options
|Clip is under 5 seconds long
|Clip is 5–30 seconds long
|Clip is over 30 seconds long
|Low viewership expected
|Medium to high viewership expected
|Instant start
|Intellectual property protection
|Live video streams
|Variable streaming rates based on visitor's bandwidth
|SMIL usage to control file selection
For more information about delivery options, see the Progressive and streaming video section of the Video Learning Guide for Flash.
After choosing a delivery option, choose which authoring tool to use—Flash or Dreamweaver:
For more information about these authoring options, refer to the Adding video to a web page section of the Video Learning Guide for Flash.
For the latest articles and resources from Adobe related to video on the web, visit the Video Technology Center. The Capturing, digitizing, and importing section of the Using Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 online documentation may also be of help.

A Boy Scout leader
Donald C. Rupert, 81, died Dec. 9, 2012, after a long bout with cancer.
He lived in Cuyahoga Falls most of his life and received his bachelor's and master's degrees from Kent State, going on to teach graphic arts at Hudson High School.
After Mr. Rupert retired in 1996 he spent the winters with his wife in the Florida Keys, where he volunteered in the Key West Garden Club and was known as the fix-it man for the many projects requiring construction skills.
He had been a Boy Scout leader, camper, sailor and world traveler. Although he could never decide on his favorite place to visit, Italy and the sailing vessels that plied the coastlines of Europe were at the top of the list. He enjoyed the theater, and had long supported the Cleveland and Akron symphonies. Blossom was a yearly favorite, as well as the Shaw Festival Theatre in Canada.
He loved driving around in his Miata convertible, enjoyed his membership in the Turkeyfoot Island Club and was also happy hanging out with friends at a rustic old log cabin in the foothills of Southern Ohio.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Norman and Beatrice; and his sister, Jeanne. He is survived by his wife, Pamela; sons, Jeffrey of Seattle and Sean; brother and sister-in-law David and Barbara Weisel and many dear friends.

The No. 8 Concordia Eagles claimed their first GSAC Championship in program history on Saturday afternoon, November 2, with a win over Arizona Christian in Phoenix, AZ. The Eagles are still unbeaten on the year at 9-0-1 in conference, edging Westmont who had two ties.
On Saturday Brooke Springer opened the floodgates at 32:16, and Arianna Vaughn put home a rebound five minutes later for her first goal of the year. Lauren Nanez made it 3-0 two minutes into the second half going one on one. It was Carly Mottram at 51:02 on a free kick. Springer got her second goal five minutes later on an assist from Vaughn. Two minutes later Springer completed the hat trick unassisted. Nanez scored her second of the game for good measure with 44 seconds left on the clock.
Springer was effective, with all three of her shots on goal finding the net. NAIA Player of the Week Megan Daniels led the team with four shots on frame. As a team, Concordia fired 30 shots with 18 on goal, and Arizona Christian got four shots off, with one on goal. Concordia keepers Jazmin Alvarez and Megan Ferry split time in goal, with Alvarez picking up the win to go to 12-0-3. With the team shutout, Concordia picked up their seventh no-no of the year.
Concordia finishes the regular season at 14-0-3 and 9-0-1 in conference. In addition to winning their first Regular-Season GSAC Championship, the team has already tied the school record for wins, and set new records in unbeaten streak, home unbeaten streak, and road unbeaten streak at 17.
"I am so proud of this group," Concordia head coach Chris Gould said. "They are enjoying a really special season and are being rewarded for their hard work. It is humbling to be the first team in Concordia history to win the conference in women's soccer, but the season is far from over for this group."
The Eagles will earn a first round bye in the upcoming GSAC Playoffs and host the semifinals at 2:00 pm on Friday, November 8. Watch live stats at http://www.cuieagles.com/live/soccer/xlive.htm.

Re: Adventures in a Storm Drain!!
Thanks all. The new Sage is AWESOME!!! The rod casts wonderfully, its light and SUPER responsive. The Sage line i got on clearance also shoots really well and floats high. I had no issues presenting my fly quietly and right where i wanted it with 35' casts. I hate to say it because i love my other St Croix dearly but my ST Croix 8wt couldnt come close to touching this Vantage. Im sure the cork will be MUCH darker and have that fish goo funk by fall when I put it away. I plan to hit this water pretty much every week if I can, I have plenty of water to explore, this section is just a .75 mile section by me.
Let me clarify siomething right quick...there is NO ( direct ) RAW sewage in this watershed. There is polutants though. Many of the storm drains in the area neighborhoods and in the industrial park flow into this creek. So anything in the streets is sweep into it. So common things to see are tires, plastic bags, bottles, cans, grocery carts, lawn mowers etc etc. The actual water shed/creek has very little of this actual junk in it, it mostly ends up in the gravel bars and on the sides. We are kinda starting a mini stream team on it to help keep it clean. So please, DO NOT be concerned about me getting a nasty bactieral infection via poo from this creek. All I have caught so far is carp-aloism. :P
I have also been taking video, so hopefully by the fall I can throw a nice 10-15min video together of my escopades in the poop-chute.

Violet Haberdasher's Knightley Academy
Book review by Ramona Davis
Ages 9-12
Look out Harry Potter. Meet Henry Grim.
Henry Grim is an orphan who has only ever known serving aristocratic boys at a privileged school in England called Midsummer School. He does menial chores like serving meals to the rude, spoiled rich boys of the school, cleaning blackboards, and helping the maids do dishes and make beds, just to have a place to lay his head at night and food in his stomach.
When Henry is caught stealing books from the library to feed his thirst for knowledge, an eccentric, old professor gives him lessons in private, secretly, instead of turning him in to the school's administrators.
When Professor Stratford encourages Henry to take an exam that will get him into the prestigious Knightley Academy, through a loophole that says any resident of the school can take the exam, Henry is worried that a commoner like himself won't make the grade. All of that changes when Henry takes the exam and passes - the first boy to do so in five years! Now he'll have the opportunity to train as a modern knight, among a new group of privileged students; a group he has only ever known to serve.
Once at Knightley Academy, Henry, along with friends he has met there that are as common as himself, becomes the victim of sabotage and hate that threatens to get the trio expelled. Enter one of Henry's rivals from Midsummer School, Valmont, and things only get worse for the group. Now they are subject to teasing and pranks that promise to do more than get the boys put out of school, but put their lives at risk. When Henry and his friends try to find out who is sabotaging them, Henry discovers secrets about Knightley's rival school, Partisan, that could start a war and break a treaty that was designed to keep peace in the land.
While Knightley Academy runs parallel to the Harry Potter series, it is definitely in a class by itself. It is defined not by the magic of a school like Hogwarts, but by the ideas of valor, honor and knighthood that one can truly relate to the era of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table.
You won't find potions class, necklaces that turn back time, or mystical creatures at Knightley Academy, but it is no less filled with adventure than the J.K Rowling books it can be compared to.
Though Haberdasher has worked a few social issues into this tale (different ethnicities and social classes working together and becoming friends; the positive way to deal with bullying), there is nothing heavy about her story line. This will not only appeal to adults, but will make young readers aware that even in fantasy, nothing is always perfect.
She also weaves fantasy and history together quite nicely without being over-the-top unbelievable, and her characters are easy to relate to and very likable, even the protagonists who also have demons of their own to face.
Knightley Academy is definitely one to add to the shelves of those looking for something to replace Harry Potter, as well as those that just aren't into magic. It is a work that is both entertaining and enjoyable to read, and contains just enough mystery to keep you guessing until the end.

I felt unaccomplished, incapable, overwhelmed and out of control on Wednesday {hence the grumpy spirit}. I was grasping hard...trying to attain peace by getting things done. And when they didn't get done {or couldn't be done}, I was all out of sorts.
But I knew I couldn't stay there for long. Peace feels so much better. My heart knows that peace doesn't come from my efforts, but from trusting in His. And nothing says "I trust you" like a thankful heart {the opposite of a grumpy heart}.
Glad that came in the mail yesterday! And then there was this comment from Robyn in response to my grumpy post. Her words felt like a wild dare for my grumpy heart:
What exactly does it mean to indulge? To take unrestrained pleasure in....I like the sound of that! So today, I'm taking unrestrained pleasure in the simplest of things...enjoying what this day holds instead of focusing on what it doesn't."Indulge in summer this week, Linsey! Indulge!"
A new song.

After upgrading to karmic 9.10 my Lightning extension in Thunderbird stopped working.
The method described on thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1145351 (a howto solving the same problem on 9.04) is not applicable on karmic 9.10 since libstdc++5 is not available through synaptic any more.
So I`m starting this howto explaining what worked for me.
First remove Lightning from Thunderbird: Tools->Addons, select Lightning, and uninstall and then close Thunderbird.
Don`t be afraid, since this will not erase your appointments.
Then install lightning-extension through synaptic or by just typing in a terminal:
Thats all you have to do. Now run thunderbird and watch it using lightningCode:sudo apt-get install lightning-extension
The extension in the repos is currently up to date.
Note 1: This is a universe package so you might have to enable them through system -> administration -> software sources.
Note 2: You might want (or not) install the package calendar-google-provider witch is suggested by lightning-extension

GLOUCESTER'S director of rugby Nigel Davies admitted his side's 25-20 Aviva Premiership victory over Harlequins was a performance befitting the occasion, writes Pippa Field.
The Cherry & Whites were led out by Andy Hazell, who was forced to retire earlier this season, while another long-serving player, Mike Tindall, captained the side on his 200th Premiership appearance.
And after three successive defeats in the competition Gloucester got back to winning ways in front of their home crowd thanks to tries from Sione Kalamafoni, Matt Kvesic and Dan Murphy.
The win eroded any lingering relegation fears and bumped the Cherry & Whites up to ninth in the table to the delight of Davies.
"It was vitally important that we capped the occasion with a win for the guys," he said.
"Both have been fantastic characters and the type of people you want in your rugby team. They are hard men and uncompromising," he said.
"Andy is a local boy, Gloucester born and bred, lives a stone's throw from Kingsholm and all his family are here. He wears his heart on his sleeve and epitomises this club.
"We still have a long way to go. There were a couple of chances that we missed which is hugely disappointing but the intent and the way we are trying to play is admirable considering the situation we're in.
"I told the team to go after Harlequins, to pressurise them with and without the ball.
"Overall I couldn't fault my players, there were some accuracy issues but other than that we're playing a good brand of rugby."
Harlequins were undone by a couple of yellow cards but still managed to threaten a comeback in the final 10 minutes.
Dave Ward rumbled over to secure a losing bonus point and while Quins couldn't overhaul their hosts, director of rugby Conor O'Shea was proud of his players.
"Given the adversity we were dealt for a multitude of reasons, I thought our reaction and pride they showed in fighting tooth and nail at a difficult place to come, was incredible," he said.
"The fact that we finished fighting and looking for something from the game leaves me incredibly frustrated but proud of our players and that will be a valuable point come the end of the season.
"Well done to Gloucester but you cannot control some of those things that were happening out there."
Every match in the Aviva Premiership rugby season is crucial. To be there to support your team, buy your ticket from premiershiprugby.com/tickets.

Generate Your Own Clean, Renewable Energy
After retrofitting to seal up energy leaks, the next best way to save money on electricity bills is to generate your own clean, renewable energy. A number of rebates and incentives are available to help you install renewable energy systems, including solar water heaters, solar panels, small-scale wind, and geothermal systems.
Solar water heating is a great way to harness the free power of the sun to cut down on energy bills.
- Statewide rebates for solar water heaters
- Federal tax credits for solar water heaters
The Connecticut Clean Energy Fund also provides incentives for installing photovoltaic solar panels and geothermal systems in your home or business. Note: funding for these programs is limited, so be sure to enroll quickly if you are interested in participating!
- Solar panels (purchase program)
- Solar panels (leasing program)
- Geothermal program
- Statewide property tax exemption for renewable energy systems
- Federal tax credits for renewable energy generation, including solar PV and small-scale wind
Once you're generating clean energy at home, you can sign up for net metering, a service through which utilities compensate customers for energy they generate but do not use. Contact your utility company to sign up.

P226 price
Anybody know of any ware with good prices on a p226? I know this is probably a bad time to be shopping for a new gun lol.
Yeah it is a bad time. I know Osage county guns on gunbroker used to have really good prices. I bought my CBT TB from them at below IOP pricing.
How much was a p226 going for before the panic?
Depends on the model. Base p226 ~$800 elite ~$1000 varied about $150 up or down depending on where ya look
I got my P226 Combat w/ threaded barrel for $909 from Osage. I think they have 1 or 2 regular P226's on GB now, but I think the prices have risen due to all the panic buying.
I got mine at a gun show early this summer for $750. I think I overpaid a little but I don't regret it.
I have to agree with the majority here regarding Osage County Guns. I purchased both of my SIGs from them and their prices beat the others by quite a bit. They were also willing to match a gunbroker auction prices as well, so they're fair and they want to sell. Their inventory is current as well not much old stock. I paid $650 for my P229r with SIGLite sights and SRT and $750 for my 1911 tacpac. Both are quite reasonable.
I would decide on the model you want find the lowest gunbroker price and give them a call it can't hurt and if they can't match it they will quote you a fair price.

|You are to write a C++ program in Visual Studio 10.0 (VS 2010) and link and run the program as a Win32 console application that computes the transcendental functions, sin(x) and e(x) [called sin(x) and exp(x) in <cmath>, respectively], for a given subset of a range of values of type double. The program should accept a range of values and an increment size from the user. The values of the given interval should be displayed along with the <cmath> sin(x) and exp(x) functions, your sin(x), and two versions of your exp(x) functions; the two versions of your exp(x) function. For the purpose of specification, the names of your functions will be called my_sin() and my_exp() so that they can be distinguished from the <cmath> ones. You need not know what these mean. Only follow the formulas below for your functions and use the <cmath> functions for comparison of correct values.
x = 0.5235987755982988156 sin(x) = 0.4999999999999643064
for(double x = lower; x <= upper; x += increment )

OUSTED councillor Jamie Chowdhary will fight his Peppard seat next month after all - as an independent.
Cllr Chowdhary, who was elected to Reading Borough Council in 2008 but de-selected by the Conservatives for next month's elections, dramatically quit the Tory Party last week.
He stunned the year's final borough council meeting and also announced plans to sue key members of the Reading East Conservative Association, who he claimed made false allegations to the police in a bid to discredit him.
This week he said it has been a "privilege and pleasure" to serve the people of Peppard and he has decided to contest the seat as an independent after receiving "so much support and encouragement" from residents of all political persuasions.
Cllr Chowdhary, who is battling cancer, said: "Despite the corrosive internal politics currently within the Reading East Conservatives, I have always held strong Conservative values and will continue to do so whilst fighting for the right to continue to represent the residents of Peppard ward.
"I know that the Reading East Conservatives will fancy their chances of holding Peppard ward, but I am prepared for the fight.
"I am asking for people who would normally vote Conservative to recognise the injustice that has been done and make a stand against the Reading East Conservative Party who treated me so badly and put my young family through hell."
He has received the backing of Marie Rogers, former chairman of Conservative Peppard Branch Committee, and its former secretary, Trish Flinn, who both resigned following his deselection.
