Elne [1] is situated in the Pyrénées-Orientales region of south-western (France), 12 km from Perpignan and 7 km from Argelès. It has a population of 6473 (1999) and is best known for its Roman period architectural remains.
History[edit]Roussillon and since it is situated on the way towards the Iberian Peninsula, successive civilisations have left their traces. The first mention of Illiberis occurs in the work of Tite-Live, a Latin historian : Iberian city with which Hannibal negotiated his safe passage (218 B.C.). In the first century A.D. it was no more than "a modest vestige of a hitherto great city" (Pline).
In the fourth century Illiberis became "Castrum Helenae" after Helen, the mother of Constantine. Within its walls was assasinated Constant, the son of Constantine in 350 A.D.
When the Arabs crossed the Pyrenees in 719 Elne was one of the first towns to be attacked, and when the counts of Roussillon achieved independence, Perpignan became the capital of the country, with Elne remaining the Episcopal City.
The cathedral was consecrated in 1069. In 1285, under the Catalano-Aragonese domination, the town was plundered, the cathedral set fire to and the people, who had taken refuge inside, massacred by the French troops of Philip the Bold (Philip III).
In 1472 the inhabitants of Elne revolted against the French rule. The town, yet again beseiged, was conquered and its captain, Bernat d'Oms, beheaded (1474).
In 1493 Elne, along with all Roussillon, returned to the Catalano-Aragonese state.
After vicissitudes lasting two centuries the episcopal seat was transferred to Perpignan (1602).
In 1641 Elne suffered another siege by the French and after the Treaty of the Pyrenees (1659), became French. The ramparts were partly destroyed in 1680 on Louis XIV's orders.
Since then Elne has become an agricultural town which, in spite of repeated destructions caused by its several invaders, remains a witness to its past glories.
In the twentieth century a sculptor and a painter leave their imprint : Aristide Maillol and Etienne Terrus.
"La Pomone" by Maillol serves as the war memorial and the studio of Terrus, where Henri Matisse and André Derain were received, saw the birth of the Fauve movement.

United need Ferguson more than ever -- and he knows it
I f Manchester United beat Barcelona at Wembley next Saturday then many will ask if Alex Ferguson has achieved all he can ever achieve at Manchester United. Alex Ferguson's gift is that he has never felt he has achieved all that he can. If he can win the European Cup with this Manchester United side, then he would be demonstrating that he is at the peak of his powers.
Manchester United need him to stay and, although they could not be said to be acting entirely in Manchester United's interests, the Glazers desperately need him to stay.
There is no post-Ferguson world that is not high-risk for the family. Even if they could appoint Jose Mourinho, which is unlikely to be an option this summer, there is a doubt over what Mourinho could achieve and how he would achieve it.
In a world in which Ferguson is reprimanded by the English FA for praising Howard Webb, Mourinho's arrival would be deeply unsettling. Football's Oliver Stone makes Ferguson look like Jimmy Stewart. Ferguson takes stances, Mourinho takes hostages.
Ferguson will also believe that Manchester United cannot do without him and he would be right.
He may take some satisfaction from the idea that he would be an impossible act to follow but his public reaction when Sven-Goran Eriksson was his putative successor in 2002 suggests that he also wants what's best for the club.
Mourinho is a more palatable successor than Eriksson but for now Ferguson is right to believe nobody is as capable as he is of managing Manchester United.
His son Darren suggested two years ago that his father would quit in 18 months but his father is still here, still finding ways to win the league with Michael Carrick, still finding things to fight against.
They make it easy for him at times, warning him last week about his behaviour when praising Webb. They think they are censuring him but essentially they are reminding him that there are still stances to be taken against his enemies who at times like those can seem like the confederacy of dunces.
He has dominated English football and that domination has found its home at Old Trafford where everyone -- opponents, referees -- bows down.
There may be some in English football who feel Ferguson is too powerful, but Old Trafford is where the power asserts itself, not in London committee rooms.
Wembley against Barcelona may be a different matter. It may feel like a home game but Barcelona will not be intimidated. Ferguson may consider retirement if United win because he may not achieve anything as improbable again. To win the European Cup with Darron Gibson on the roster is a once-in-a-lifetime accomplishment, even if it is more likely to be accomplished if Gibson stays in his cup final suit.
There is nobody to challenge Ferguson and he knows it. All around him, clubs are either planning for the future or dealing with the wreckage of the past: Ferguson seizes every moment.
Chelsea will look to a new man next season; Arsenal will suffer in their existential way while Manchester City and Liverpool will have massive expectation. United have no need for turmoil, not when there is so much around them.
There will be those who will say Ferguson should get out now, especially if he wins on Saturday. He can only go down, they'll say, with some merit. But if Ferguson wanted to get out when he was ahead he would have already quit. He has stayed because he never believes he's behind. He never sees United as the underdog.
Why allow the Glazers to squeeze Manchester United, to force a decline in standards if you didn't believe that you could conquer every problem with your own will? He has stayed despite the lack of investment in the squad. This season the success of Chicharito has made it seem like a strategy. Ferguson might have always enjoyed developing young players but from Pallister to Keane, from Ferdinand to Veron and Berbatov, he has liked spending money too. The Glazers have forced him to remember how much he enjoys working with youth, as well as the aged, like Giggs and Scholes.
Yet none of it matters. He sends out a side to win, believing they will win and is only surprised when it doesn't happen.
This has been a season of immense achievements. He now has his 19th title and the chance of a third European Cup which would match Bob Paisley's record. But when he stood up to Wayne Rooney and his agent last winter, he made the decisive contribution to United's season. He demonstrated that there were battles he wasn't prepared to lose. United have followed his example ever since.
"The manager can never lose an argument," he said once. One day, he will lose it with time, but not today. If Manchester United win next Saturday, he'll have no worlds left to conquer. He'll just have to conquer the old ones again.

"6 year old with leg fracture"
About: East Surrey Hospital East Surrey Hospital Redhill RH1 5RH
Posted via NHS Choices
The service we received at East Surrey was exemplary.
From the minute I carried my 6 year old screaming into A&E, to the minute we were discharged we received fantastic care.
We did not have to wait long for anything, they explained everything well, and we really feel that all the staff were polite, caring and professional.
The receptionist, the porter, the radiographer, the nurses all went above and beyond my expectations at quite a stressful time.
I've since had a slightly substandard phone call with an employee whilst trying to rearrange an appointment, but this is a minor point, and this was the only unhelpful person we encountered through this whole experience.
Response from Bill Kilvington, Assistant Director for Women and Children's, Surrey and Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust nearly 2 years ago
Dear Anonymous
I am pleased that your child received good care, but of course less happy that you did not have such a helpful experience when trying to arrange the appointment.
It would be very helpful if you could let me have more information about this aspect as I would very much like to understand where this went wrong so that we can improve our responsiveness and helpfulness here too.
You can email me at email@example.com
I do hope your child is on the mend.
Kind regards

Los Angeles Lakers vs. Utah Jazz - 4/13/16 NBA Pick, Odds, and Prediction
Utah Jazz (40-41) at Los Angeles Lakers (16-65)
NBA Basketball: Wednesday, April 13, 2016 at 10:30 pm (STAPLES Center)
The Line: Los Angeles Lakers +6.5 -- Over/Under: 191.5 See the Latest Odds
The Utah Jazz take and the Los Angeles Lakers duke it out in Kobe Bryant's last NBA game.
The Jazz have lost three of their last four games and will need to win tonight to have a chance of sneaking into the playoffs, but they'll need to play better than they did in Monday's 101-92 loss to the Mavericks. Gordon Hayward led the team with 26 points on 11 of 21 shooting while Shelvin Mack added 18 points, but no other player finished in double figures which really hurt the Jazz throughout the game. Rodney Hood has been one of the more consistent players for the Jazz but scored just six points on one of 11 shooting while Rudy Gobert added just two points before leaving the game with a sprained ankle and he did not even make the trip to Los Angeles which is a big loss for the Jazz who absolutely need this win.
USA TODAY Sports
Meanwhile, the Lakers have lost 10 of their last 11 games and they'll still be licking their wounds after getting thrashed by the Thunder in a 112-79 rout on Monday. Kobe Bryant led the team with 13 points while playing just 19 minutes while a few other players finished in double figures, but while this game was competitive in the first half, the Lakers just had no answers in a 54-31 second half dominated by the Thunder. With the loss, LA drops to 16-65 on the season which leaves them in last place in the Western Conference and second last in the league overall.
In ATS trends, the Jazz are 6-0 ATS in their last six games against a team below .400 and 12-5 ATS in their last 17 games overall, while the Lakers are 2-5 ATS in their last seven games following a loss of more than 10 points and 1-4 ATS in their last five games overall.
Head to head, the Jazz are 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings overall and 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings in Los Angeles.
There really is no reason the Lakers should have much of a chance against a desperate albeit shorthanded Jazz team, but I just get the feeling that the Lakers and the fans will get behind Kobe one last time and at least make it interesting in the fourth quarter.

Sources told Teamspeed that Lamborghini has a surprise planned for the Geneva Motor Show this March. They say that this won't be the replacement for the Gallardo. It also won't be a hypercar that's positioned above the Aventador so the Aventador Roadster has been ruled out. A major possibility is a concept car version of the third model.
Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann said that the production version will appear only after two years but he promised that the company will decide on the third model by early 2012 and that when this happens, "we will show something."
But then, it's possible that the surprise model is the "production" Sesto Elemento or the Gallardo LP550-2 Balboni Bicolore Spyder Performante. Sources also said that it's possible that the Aventador Roadster would be presented at the Geneva Show too. It's believed that press photos have already been taken of this car, which has a retractable carbon fiber roof.
The new Lamborghini Aventador bears the brand's distinctive design language, characterized by extremely powerful proportions, precise surfaces, exact lines, and taut muscularity in every single detail. Designers at Centro Stile Lamborghini carefully developed the brand's design language in order to give the Aventador a new and significant edge. From its sharply honed front end to its extremely low roofline and its distinctive rear diffuser, it is clear that the car is an avant-garde piece of art and a superbly dynamic sculpture. Each line you see on the car has a clear function and each form is dictated by a need for speed, but its overall appearance is nothing short of breathtaking and spectacular.
You will surely find the Aventador's proportions truly impressive, with an overall length of 188.19 inches, a width of 88.98 inches including exterior mirrors, and a height of 44.72 inches. The doors of the carbon-fiber monocoque swing upward to open. This feature was first introduced in the legendary Countach and later used for the V12 models like the Diablo and Murciélago.
The new Aventador also takes after its immediate predecessor, the Murciélago, in terms of its electronically managed air intakes opening depending on the temperature outside and on the need for cooling air, therefore ensuring maximum aerodynamic efficiency. The Aventador also has an optional transparent engine bonnet that showcases the car's 12-cylinder engine, like a technical masterpiece in a display case.
You will also appreciate the Aventador's spacious interior, which combines perfect Italian craftsmanship, cutting edge technology, exclusive and premium materials, and generous equipment. You can press the start button, which is enclosed in a red switch cover and is located on the car's broad center tunnel, in order to awaken the 12-cylinder engine. Moreover, a next-generation dashboard dominates the interior of the Aventador. Just like in a modern airplane, all of the instruments are shown on a TFT-LCD screen with innovative display concepts. You can find a second screen that is intended for the standard-fit navigation and multimedia system.

There is a widespread belief amongst teachers that it is part of their duty of care, even a defining aspect of their of professionalism, that all views expressed in the classroom are to be treated equally.
I take it as one of my first duties to challenge this. The right to have a view is indeed equally shared, but this is does not imply the same for the idea itself. If all ideas are equal, then all ideas are worthless.
If we accept this, then we can meaningfully ask questions about how these views might be evaluated – true grist for the educational mill.
A fine line
An American bill, defeated ultimately by the Oklahoma Senate this year, attempted to legislate that students were not to be "penalised in any way because the student may subscribe to a particular position on scientific theories".
Obviously this terrain that must be carefully negotiated in the context of developing minds, but there is a core principle here that requires articulation.
Central to a liberal society is the right to discuss things. Not being able to do this is totalitarianism – the banning of unsanctioned ideas. So where on the continuum of controlling public discourse, if it is to be done at all, can we comfortably sit?
The further we move away from unfettered public speech the murkier the waters become, with calls of and for censorship beginning after the first paddle stroke. Where this boundary lies for and within individuals is highly significant in an educational setting.
Let me make the point in a broader social context, one that involves exploring that most cherished of hurts, the pain of being offended.

Boston Marathon 2010
April 19, 2010 by Post Team
Boston Marathon 2010:"Losing 40 pounds was a huge accomplishment as I continue to increase my level of fitness, I'm looking for more challenges," says Bertinelli. "Running the Boston Marathon for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is a company that will test my stamina while allowing me the opportunity to raise critical funding for cancer research that will benefit people around the world."
Bertinelli has been training with Christopher Ross Lane and join over 500 of Dana-Farber Marathon Challenge colleagues who are raising money for the Claudia Adams Barr Program in Innovative Basic Cancer Research at Dana-Farber, a principal teaching affiliate of Harvard Medical School and a leading cancer researcher and focus in the U.S..
Lane says, "As a coach this is an incredible opportunity for me to run with my client and see Valerie get a big goal in life, and it's amazing because it benefits a cause incredible."
Bertinelli is not the only name in bold is running on Monday, April 19, when U.S. Senator John Kerry will start for the wheelchair division and Olympic gold medalist Hannah Kearney of Vermont wills serve as Honorary Grand Marshal. This year, three Patriots quarterback, Tom Brady, sisters Nancy, Julie and Maureen Brady will be running with Team Foundation McCourt's Marathon to raise funds for research and a cure for Alzheimer's and multiple sclerosis. The brothers were running in honor of his late grandparents, Harry Brady, who suffered with Alzheimer's disease, and Bernice Johnson, who had multiple sclerosis. The McCourt Foundation was founded by the seven children of Robert and Mary McCourt, both victims of neurological disorders.
"The training has been hard. Well, I will not lie … very, very, very hard," says Julie. "Getting up at 5:15 in the morning, knowing they will run 18 miles is far from being a good time. It's great that I have my sisters to train with." Both Julie and Maureen live in the Bay Area and have been training together. Nancy has been training in Boston with his teammates, and together they exceeded their original goal of $ 15,000, raising a total of $ 25,000 – but they hope to double that to $ 50,000.
Sister Nancy says: "I know it will be hard, but I will keep the goal in mind why we are doing this marathon. I'll think of my grandparents. I'll think about it being perhaps the only time I'll have to do something really special for them with my two sisters. I hope to see my friends and family on the road. They keep us going. "
The Brady clan, including parents and his brother Tom (Gisele working), the margin is encouraging the sisters in later, according to Nancy, who served seven months in Kampala, Uganda in recent years by a grant from Pfizer Global as a communications specialist infectious diseases clinic. "Tom's really proud of the fact that we all decided to do this as a team," she says.
There are plenty of other marathoners good heart, too, find a way to participate in the race to benefit a charity or good cause. Sam Novey, 22, AKA Burgerman, for example, is a student at Harvard University who is trying to raise $ 100,000 for schools and citizens will be running in a hamburger suit as part of its fund-raising gimmick. His effort was initiated as a result of his passion for hamburgers, their volunteer work with 12 sixth graders at the Edwards Middle School in Charlestown and its project to design an increase in their favorite hamburger emporium in Harvard Square, the restaurant b. good. B.good, in turn, became the official sponsor of the Boston Marathon, during which he will wear a lycra suit and 12-pound burger will be joined on the last leg of the race by six students of the School Citizen Dresses fries. "I ran my first marathon in my first year at Harvard in 2008 (3:49) and my second in 2009 (3:36). Now is a time to do it with a hamburger suit," says Covey.
In fact, the Boston Marathon itself is the beneficiary of a charitable non-profit as the Boston Athletic Association, founded in 1887, manages, organizes and promotes the annual event.
"This is an opportunity to be surrounded by positive people," says Nancy Brady. "It's an enriching experience and turn it more than you put in."

Surrey hold off Hampshire in thriller
Brit Oval (Surrey won toss): Surrey Brown Caps (2pts) beat Hampshire Hawks by one run
Hamza Riazuddin, a 19-year-old Hampshire bowler, came within a misfield of being a hero last night. Hampshire had made ten of the 14 they needed in the last over and Riazuddin cut hard at Jade Dernbach's final ball. James Benning dived, prevented the boundary and kept Hampshire to two, giving Surrey a victory that had looked unlikely when Michael Carberry and Chris Benham put on 56 for the Hawks' fourth wicket, chasing only 126.
When Carberry holed out to deep mid-off, the charge turned into a stumble and then a collapse. Schofield lured Benham forward and turned the ball past his bat. Andr? Nel plucked out Liam Dawson's middle stump, Nic Pothas became the second of two run-outs for Schofield and the rest followed.

More about this item
Classic Uwabaki School Shoes / Slippers for Japanese School Uniforms! Brand New, Authentic Uniform Item (not a cheap costume !) These are Made in Japan! (Other sellers have been offering Chinese knock-offs at the same price!) Pictures may take a few moments to load! Incredibly Cute and Fun! A definite favorite! These medium quality photos really don't display the fantastic quality of this item! These are direct from Authentic Uniform sales outlets here in Japan, and are worn daily by students here in Tokyo. These are not fake costumes or hong kong knock-offs. We originally offered them for Japanese students overseas. They have also become popular with Cosplay and Lolita fans. Shoe uppers are made from tough, breathable, smooth cotton. Sole is tough, slip-resistant, water-proof rubber in your choice of bright colors! These slippers have a strong pull-tab on the heel, and elastic stretch band over the arch for easy, comfortable wear. The unisex design is worn by both boys and girls. Uwabaki slippers should be hand-washed, however, they can be machine washed on a delicate cycle without damage. They can even take a mild bleach. When you enter a school building in Japan, you will need to change your shoes. These soft "Inside" shoes are called "Uwabaki". They are cloth-and-rubber slipper-shoes worn by all students in school. At the entrance to every school is the large "Genkan" area with many rows of "cubbie" style lockers. Here everyone changes from their "outdoor shoes" and into uwabaki upon entering the school. The special "cubbie" lockers are provided to hold each students' shoes (these lockers are also frequently used as mailboxes for passing notes). A student's grade level is often indicated by a colored stripe across the toes; the body color of the slipper is always white. Girls often add cute designs and colors to their uwabaki with markers in order to add some personal customization and individuality to their school uniforms. Anime movies with any school scenes inevitably shows characters wearing these "inside shoes", whose somewhat informal appearance (often simplified further to ease animation) can make a strange contrast to the more formal school uniforms.

The biology of telomeres and telomerase has been the subject of intensive investigative effort since it became evident that they play a significant role in two important biological processes, the loss of cellular replicative capacity inherent to organismal ageing and the unrestricted cell proliferation characteristic of carcinogenesis. Telomere shortening in normal cells is a result of DNA replication events, and reduction beyond a critical length is a signal for cellular senescence.
The choice of a phenotype is critical for the study of a complex genetically regulated process, such as aging. To date, most of the twin and family studies have focused on broad survival measures, primarily age at death or exceptional longevity. However, on the basis of recent studies of twins and families, biological age has also been shown to have a strong genetic component, with heritability estimates ranging from 27% to 57%.
Neuroimaging studies have become increasingly multimodal in recent years, with researchers typically acquiring several different types of MRI data and processing them along separate pipelines that provide a set of complementary windows into each subject's brain. However, few attempts have been made to integrate the various modalities in the same analysis. Linked ICA is a robust data fusion model that takes multi-modal data and characterizes inter-subject variability in terms of a set of multi-modal components.
Many of the aging-related morbidities, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative disease, and infectious susceptibility, are linked to a decline in immune competence with a concomitant rise in proinflammatory immunity, placing the process of immune aging at the center of aging biology. Immune aging affects individuals older than 50 years and is accelerated in patients with the autoimmune disease rheumatoid arthritis. Immune aging results in a marked decline in protective immune responses and a parallel increase in tissue inflammatory responses.
Dietary caloric restriction is the most robust and reproducible means of slowing aging and extending lifespan and healthspan in short-lived mammals and lower organisms. Numerous aspects of this paradigm have been investigated in laboratories around the world since its inception more than 60 years ago. However, two questions about calorie restriction remain unanswered to this day: (1) By what mechanism does it work? and (2) Will it work in humans?
Obesity is increasing in epidemic proportions world-wide. Even mild degrees of obesity have adverse health effects and are associated with diminished longevity. For this reason aggressive dietary intervention is recommended. Patients with body mass indices exceeding 40 have medically significant obesity in which the risk of serious health consequences is substantial, with concomitant significant reductions in life expectancy. For these patients, sustained weight loss rarely occurs with dietary intervention. For the appropriately selected patients, surgery is beneficial.
OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship between self-reported weight and height to actual weight and height in a cross-sectional representative sample of school students in Jeddah City, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and its relation to selected socio-economic and socio-demographic factors. Also to evaluate the validity of self-reported weight and height measurements. METHODS: Data was collected from a sample of Saudi school students in Jeddah City, KSA from 42 boys' schools and 42 girls' schools during the month of April 2000.
Calorie restriction and reduced somatotropic (growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor-1) signaling have a widespread though not universal ability to extend life. These interventions are considered central tools to understanding the downstream events that lead to the increase in healthy life span. As these approaches have been validated, the animals phenotyped, and the mechanisms proposed, many challenges have emerged.
BACKGROUND: DNA methylation of the SKA2 gene has recently been implicated as a biomarker of suicide risk and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). To examine the specificity and reliability of these findings, we examined associations between SKA2 DNA methylation, broad dimensions of psychiatric symptoms, and suicide phenotypes in adults with high levels of trauma exposure. METHODS: A total of 466 White, non-Hispanic veterans and their intimate partners (65% male) underwent clinical assessment and had blood drawn for genotyping and methylation analysis.

'Sarah Palin's Alaska' | The Presidental Candidate Kills Her Caribou/
HopeTracker| Sarah Palin kills her Caribou in what's called an act of 'ethical hunting'. Without debating the ethics of hunting and eating meat, the joy Sarah expresses in her kill is unsettling to us. Many soldiers express a similar adrenalin rush 'in the kill'. Perhaps Sarah Palin knows more about what makes humanity tick than we give her credit for.

SJE-Rhombus going strong
This year, a local manufacturing company celebrated 35 years in business -- and a rebound from tough economic times. SJE-Rhombus recently set up production in China and continued to expand in various locations across the United States.
The employee-owned company headquartered in Detroit Lakes has become more efficient in its production, expanding its customer base internationally.
"I think that's definitely a major key to the success of the company," said Jeff Cheney, customer service coordinator. "Every employee has a stake in the company."
Chief Executive Officer Laurie Lewandowski said that when she was hired 12 years ago, there were about four or five employees. Now nearly 400 employees are taking on various well-rounded roles, from assembly to management.
When the manufacturing industry was hit hard by the economic downturn in 2008, the company was forced to downsize. However, Phyllis Inwards, who works in production planning and scheduling, said using temporary services has helped in keeping things more consistent.
"We've continued our marketing, we've just been frugal with our expenses," added Shelly Maguire corporate marketing manager.
SJE-Rhombus products include control panels, tank alarms and float switches, all of which help customers keep up with environmental trends and regulations, Maguire said.
SJE-Rhombus, originally known as S.J. Electro Systems, Inc., sold its first product -- the Tank Alert System -- in 1975.
It was designed to alert residents that their septic holding tank level was high and in need of pumping.
The product continues to be sold today out of five locations -- four in the United States and one in China -- all of which opened in the last seven years.
"Having the other locations has helped us have a strong regional presence," Maguire said.
New product developments have also brought on the ceramic filter treatment, which integrates a conventional biological activated sludge process with a ceramic membrane filtration system.
SJE-Rhombus, the North American water and wastewater controls leader, is still planning to grow and attract more customers, according to management. The Detroit Lakes location has also attracted employees from nearby towns, and from cities located more than 50 miles away.
"Thirty-five years is different than 25 or 50 but it's still a milestone," Maguire said.

Statement on the Passing of Pat Toro
Last week we lost one of the strongest and most ardent advocates for veterans I have ever met, Pat Toro. His devotion and commitment to our country and to the needs of our veterans will always be admired.
I was blessed to have worked with Pat as a City Councilman and as a State Senator. I will never forget his tenacity and compassion for working towards improving the lives of all veterans. May God bless Pat Toro and his family.

Holsters…looking for an in-depth conversation…in addition to the other current one
In the constant search for a well fitting, usable, comfortable, non-pants-pulling down holster, I have recently begun to investigate shoulder holsters. They seem to be one that would fit the above criteria, especially because I am 6' 300 lbs. I would wear an undershirt, the holster, and then the normal shirt. I know this would render a fast draw impossible, but how important is that?
I really like the Milt Sparks Versa Max 2 for an IWB solution, but I am afraid it will be uncomfortable, and most importantly, it would probably pull my pants down. I just bought a special leather belt from Don Hume, so the belt is not the issue. Due to rotund shape, my pants seem to fall down regardless of how tight the belt is. I don't want to have to keep pulling them up if I add a heavy gun.
BTW, I will need to conceal a SIG P226. And, I refues to buy 5 different holster before I get the right one. We gun enthusiasts must put our heads together to come up with a better way to get a god fitting holster!!
Please.. any in-depth experiences or solutions would be appreciated!

hjm,I'm built alot like you but find the shoulder holster uncomfortable, I carry a SIG 220 in 38 super.most of the problem i find even with the larger harness is the reach across my chest to the pistol butt, I have gone to carrying IWB or OWB with one of Rossen'smodel designed to fit between the belt and the pant,depending on the style of pants worn i use suspenders in addition to the belt

I have a holster that might work for you. Its a little different than a shoulder holster, and will definitely work better than a shoulder holster under your shirt. Its called the "Confidant Shirt Holster"
by Kramer Leather. Its basicly a undershirt with 2 holsters attached to it. I can conceal a Gov. Model 1911 with a double reload under a dress type shirt that is tucked in. No coat is necessary. I dont use it all the time as I prefer a IWB type holster, but it does offer options, especially for larger pistols. They recommend getting one size smaller for a better fit with the weight, which is what I did (med. instead of lg.) its snug on, but the gun doesnt flop around when it's in the holster. I can see where it might tend to move around if the shirt fit loosely.
Here's the address:

a pair of suspenders will make a world of difference.. I pack a Ruger P-95 and I'm about the same build as you (circumferencely challenged)
and have fun with them.. bright colours, stripes, paterns, and pins and so forth go nicley on them.

Possible Solution
If you'll email me at [email protected] I have a possible solution. I do think the Versamax is a good choice, BTW.

I'm not as rotund as some of you fellows but I'm not skinny either. My Solution after years of fighting with this same issue is:
Industrial strength suspenders and a relatively soft belt with an IWB. You don't need a hard belt if it is just keeping the IWB close to your body and not holding anything up. I like the Kramer IWB #3. You wear a tee shirt tucked into your pants under the suspenders. I like the "Coolmax" wicking type tee shirt. They don't get soggy. With suspenders you can wear the pants a bit loose for the IWB. Depending on the weather, you can wear a polo type shirt, sweat shirt or vest over this. If anyone asks "aren't you hot wearing that vest?" in warm weather, I just show a suspender and say "I don't like my suspenders to show".

Waxaan halkan idin kugu soo bandhigaynaa warbixin laga diyaariyay sida ugu fudud oo aad ku noqon karto hantiile.
Hoos ka akhriso Qoraalka Oo Ingiriis Ah:-
Lesson 1: Choose Your Grandparents Carefully
"There are three ways to make money. You can inherit it. You can marry it. You can steal it."
— conventional wisdom in Italy
William Henry Gates III made his best decision on October 28, 1955, the night he was born. He chose J.W. Maxwell as his great-grandfather. Maxwell founded Seattle's National City Bank in 1906. His son, James Willard Maxwell was also a banker and established a million-dollar trust fund for William (Bill) Henry Gates III.
In some of the later lessons, you will be encouraged to take entrepreneurial risks. You may find it comforting to remember that at any time you can fall back on a trust fund worth many millions of 1998 dollars.
Lesson 2: Choose Your Parents Carefully
"A young man asked an old rich man how he made his money. The old guy fingered his worsted wool vest and said, "Well, son, it was 1932. The depth of the Great Depression. I was down to my last nickel. I invested that nickel in an apple. I spent the entire day polishing the apple and, at the end of the day, I sold the apple for ten cents. The next morning, I invested those ten cents in two apples. I spent the entire day polishing them and sold them at 5 pm for 20 cents. I continued this system for a month, by the end of which I'd accumulated a fortune of $1.37. Then my wife's father died and left us two million dollars."
William Henry Gates, Jr. and Mary Maxwell were among Seattle's social and financial elite. Bill Gates, Jr. was a prominent corporate lawyer while Mary Maxwell was a board member of First Interstate Bank and Pacific Northwest Bell. She was also on the national board of United Way, along with John Opel, the chief executive officer of IBM who approved the inclusion of MS/DOS with the original IBM PC.
Remind your parents not to send you to public school. Bill Gates went to Lakeside, Seattle's most exclusive prep school where tuition in 1967 was $5,000 (Harvard tuition that year was $1760). Typical classmates included the McCaw brothers, who sold the cellular phone licenses they obtained from the U.S. Government to AT&T for $11.5 billion in 1994. When the kids there wanted to use a computer, they got their moms to hold a rummage sale and raise $3,000 to buy time on a DEC PDP-10, the same machine used by computer science researchers at Stanford and MIT.
Note: Recall that in the 1980s we venerated Donald Trump and studied his "art of the deal". If Donald Trump had taken the millions he inherited from his father and put it all into mutual funds, you'd never have had to suffer through one of his books. But he'd be just about as rich today.
Lesson 3: Acquire Research Results by Hiring and Buying
Cows and Church. Tingstade (northern Gotland). Conventional (loser) economic wisdom holds that monopolies should spend heavily on research because they are in a position to capture the fruits of the research. But if you want to become as rich as Bill Gates, you have to remember that it is cheaper to wait for a small company to come up with something good and then buy them. In the old days, antitrust laws kept monopolies from buying potential competitors. But not anymore. When Microsoft products were threatened by network computers and Web-based applications, they simply bought WebTV and Hotmail.
Another good strategy is to hire the right people. Some of the guys who wrote Microsoft Windows had previous worked on window systems at Xerox PARC. So Xerox paid for the research; Microsoft paid only for development.
In the long run a tech company without research probably can't sustain its market leadership. So you'll eventually need to build something like research.microsoft.com (check out netscan.research.microsoft.com to see some interesting online community research).
Lesson 4: Let Other People Do the Programming
South Island, New Zealand If you're a great engineer, it can be frustrating to rely on other people to translate your ideas into reality. However, keep in mind that the entire Indian subcontinent is learning Java. And that if Microsoft, Oracle, SAP, and Sun products simply worked and worked simply, half of the world's current IT workers would be out of a job. You're not going to get rich being "just a coder." Especially working in painful low-level imperative languages such as C or Java. It might be worth writing your own SQL queries and HTML pages since these tend to be compact and easier than precisely specifying the work for another person to do. But basically you need to get good at thinking about whether a piece of software is doing something useful for the adopting organization and end-user. Bill Gates does code reviews, not coding.
[If you aren't sure that you need to be filthy rich and like to do some coding, see this old misguided article for more about what it might mean to be a great software engineer.]
Lesson 5: Train your new CEO
Garden. Getty Center. Los Angeles, California. If you're an intelligent curious person it can be painful to run a company of more than 50 people. You spend more time than you'd like repeating yourself, sitting in boring meetings, skimming over long legal documents in which you know there are errors but aren't sure how serious, etc. The temptation is to hand over the reins to the first "professional manager" who comes along. And that's what the standard venture capitalist formula dictates. But Bill Gates didn't do that. He hired Steve Ballmer in 1980 and gave him the CEO job 20 years later. Making money in the software products business requires domain expertise and a commitment to solving problems within that domain. Great tech companies are seldom built by non-technical management or professional managers who aren't committed to anything more than their paycheck. Adobe is another good example. The two founders were PhD computer science researchers from Xerox PARC who were passionate about solving problems in the publishing and graphics world. They are still guiding operations at Adobe.
Note that this is a principle that Old Economy companies have long understood. Jack Welch joined GE in 1961 and became CEO 20 years later. Sometimes an Old Economy company may pull in a few outsiders to senior positions but, because they have such stable bureaucracies underneath, they can more easily afford this than startups.
See Charles Ferguson's High Stakes, No Prisoners (1999) for a longer explanation of how hired-gun CEOs manage to kill software products companies.
Lesson 6: Focus on Profit
"At Hewlett-Packard, people, materials, facilities, money, and time are the resources available to us for conducting our business. By applying our skills, we turn these resources into useful products and services. If we do a good job, customers pay us more for our products than the sum of our costs in producing and distributing them. This difference, our profit, represents the value we add to the resources we utilize."
— David Packard in The HP Way
Remembering to make a profit was tough in the dotcom 1990s but it turns out that Hewlett and Packard's ideas were right. Most of the management teams at dotcom businesses, by being disorganized, unintelligent, and ignorant, were subtracting value from the resources that they controlled.
How does one make money in the software products business? Simple. The necessary step is to build something that becomes part of information systems that generate value for organizations and end-users. Once you've created value you can extract a portion in lots of ways. You can be closed-source and charge a license fee. You can be open-source and charge for training, service, support, and extensions. But if you aren't getting your software product into important information systems, you don't have a prayer, no matter how slick your marketing materials.
If you're creative and diligent the software products business is extremely lucrative. If you're losing money, ask yourself what you're doing wrong. The answer is probably "plenty".

Athens - Greece faced a paralysing general strike on Wednesday as unions take to the streets to protest at a new round of sweeping austerity cuts to be brought in next month to unlock vital EU-IMF loans.
As 5 000 police deployed around the capital, hundreds of people began to gather for separate demonstrations called by left-wing and Communist unions.
The strike action is expected to bring the country to a standstill, disrupting flights, confining ferries to port, halting train services and shutting down the Greek public sector, including museums.
Traders have also been called to close their businesses for the day but with a deepening recession to consider, many shop owners opted to remain open.
"It's mostly civil servants who are on strike," Irene, a woman in her 30s who runs a printing shop, told AFP. "My staffers may arrive late but they won't strike, it's never helped us any."
It is the third general strike this year but the first to test the resolve of the coalition government that took over in June to keep the recession-mired country in the eurozone as it rushes to finalise a package of some
€11.5bn in extra cuts.
Another €2bn must be raised from taxes under the austerity measures due to be introduced to parliament in early October by the three-party coalition headed by conservative Prime Minister Antonis Samaras.
The new cuts will affect thousands of civil servants who have already suffered salary reductions of up to 40% over the last two years.
The age of retirement is also expected to be raised from 65 to 67, just two years after a previous hike.
The austerity package is designed to unblock access to €31.5bn in loans, part of Greece's massive rescue package from the so-called troika of creditors - the EU, the IMF and the European Central Bank.
Athens needs the money to pay state salaries and pensions, recapitalise Greek banks hit by a state debt rollover and repay over €6bn owed to private contractors.
But even this latest round of austerity measures might not be enough to get Greece's troubled rescue and reform operation back on the rails.
Unions say that cutbacks to trim the country's soaring deficit have caused record unemployment and a deepening recession now in its fifth year.
"Salaries, pensions and benefits have been cut again and again for 2.5 years and the 'monster' of the debt and deficits remains invincible, constantly demanding new sacrifices," the main unions GSEE and Adedy said in a statement.
"S0S - save the country, but above all its people," they said in posters strung from lamp-posts across the capital.
Cutbacks have caused mounting anger in other struggling economies in the eurozone's southern flank.
Over 100 000 people protested in Portugal earlier this month, and on Tuesday more than 60 people were injured in Madrid in clashes near parliament.
International Monetary Fund chief Christine Lagarde had warned on Tuesday that delays in implementing Greece's bailout programme, including privatisations, had expanded the country's financing shortfall.
"As a result of the major delay in privatisation... and the limited revenue collection, there's a financing gap, especially if factoring in more time," Lagarde told an audience at the Peterson Institute for International Economics.
"We don't only need €11.5bn of cuts; we need a series of cuts and additional revenues in order to fill in the fiscal gap," she said.
But on Tuesday Greece's deputy finance minister Christos Staikouras said that Greek bonds held by the ECB could be rolled over to bridge the gap caused by slippage on fiscal targets and state asset sales.

Wouldnt I just love to see our bloated, overpaid civil servants taking a 40% pay cut!!!!!!

The Gibson Les Paul Traditional Plus Left-handed Electric Guitar has all the same features as the Traditional but with a beautifully figured Plus Top!
The Gibson Traditonal Plus is the first model to use the revoluntioary Plek system from Gibson .A computer controlled set-up that measures and dresses each fret measuring the height between the fingerboard and each string. This will eliminate string buzz and provide ultimate playability. With Mahogany body and set neck and a pair of Gibson's awesome '57 Classic humbucker pickups this guitar has a classic look and feel that guitar players grew up playing.
Other traditional features are vintage style Gibson speed knobs, chrome Nashillve Tune-O-Matic bridge and stopbar and classic Kluson-style tuners by Tone Pros, which give this guitar the classic look of the 80's that pursists will love.
Gibson Les Paul Traditional Plus Lefty Electric Guitar Specifications
What started as a simple string and pedal sales catalog has grown exponentially over the past thirty years. The early days were a time where catalogs didn't have much of a presence in the industry, but what began as a college dorm room operation grew rapidly. In 1986 we moved to a full product offering and 64-page catalog, which over the years has grown to 162 pages. Join the AMS family and get your free catalog now!
