If I could avoid making a nod to a feminine hygiene product in a title for an article, I would. Period.
Menstrual jokes aside, I have no choice. Seeing that I am the Freshman at Life, it is my obligation to let you in on any and all embarrassing moments that come my way, even ones that still make my cheeks burn as I type.
So let me take you back to last Sunday — to my date, a guy I had seen more than once but not one I feel comfortable talking about my rag with. My date, being the fine young gentleman that he is, offered to take me around the city to accomplish everything still left on my NYC bucket list. Being a hopeless romantic, I pictured a day of hand holding across the Brooklyn Bridge, "not getting" modern art together at the MoMA, and sharing straws over a milkshake at Shake Shack. Instead, less than 30 minutes in, my plans took an unexpected turn when I was forced to blurt out: "Tampons! "Tampons. We have to find tampons." Super romantic, right?
Like I said, I wasn't particularly comfortable talking about my rag with him. I could've just said, "I need to make a quick drug store run." But I totally panicked. We weren't in Manhattan, land of Duane Reades. We were on a quiet Brooklyn street with nothing but a bagel shop and a shady bodega.
So I did what any normal person would do in this situation and ran toward the bodega, leaving him on the street.
First thing I see when I walk in? A sign that reads "Cash Only." Cash. Only?!?! The shady bodega was cash freaking only. With only a credit card in my chic messenger bag, I had to sheepishly break the news to my date. "Just take a twenty. I don't know how much those things cost," he mumbled clearly uncomfortable. I took the twenty and got the goods. Victory?
Now I've had my fair share of dating horror stories: collapsing a hammock in an attempt to coyly pounce on a napping dude, splitting my jeans whilst crawling in a clown's mouth to retrieve a rogue mini-golf ball and losing my swimsuit bottoms after taking the least feminine fall possible off a pair of water skis. I can go on. I won't. But for some reason, this ten-minute episode that might not be embarrassing to some, takes the cake for me. I don't know. I think it's because I really like the kid.
Got a more embarrassing date story? I want to hear it! Tweet me your tales @hmils and @SELFMagazine using #FALHelp!

New Delhi, Sep 2 (IANS) Two Telugu Desam Party (TDP) members protesting against the decision to bifurcate Andhra Pradesh were suspended from the Rajya Sabha for the third time Monday for disrupting house proceedings.
Deputy Chairman P.J. Kurien suspended C.M. Ramesh and Y.S. Chaudhary for the day.
As soon as zero hour began, the two TDP members began protesting, shouting slogans and came near the chairman's podium, prompting Kurien to say: "You are forcing me to take action against you."
But both members continued their protest and Kurien announced he was suspending them.
Kurien then suspended the two members and briefly adjourned the house.
The members were suspended twice last week.

.32 acp headspacing?

.32 acp headspacing?
Does the .32 acp headspace on the rim? or on the case mouth?
Cartridge diagrams show the case mouth to be .337
the case base to be .338
and the cartridge rim to be .358.
My problem is this.
Building 32 acps for my colt 1903 Model M, and Beretta M1934
I was using the Lee 3die set...therefore seating and crimping in the same step.
Some (Not most) of my finished cartridges were coming out "Fat" and would not chamber easily or completely.
I reasoned that the answer would be the Lee FCD.
Problem is Lee doesn't make a FCD in 32 acp.
Talking to the Lee people, we decided that I should get the .32 S&W Long (which Lee DOES offer).
I could back out the crrimper (it wouldnt reach the .32acp anyway) and just use the Carbide Resizing ring to iron out my bulge/whatever.
It was even suggested that by inserting a "spacer" between the crimp screw in head and crimper, that I might be able to crimp the acp with the S&W FCD as well.
I got my >32 S&W Long FCD, removed the Crimper portion and tried to "iron out" my "fat cartridges"
It helped but did not completely solve the problem. some would still not chamber completely.
I fashioned a "spacer" out of a pile of washers and got the .32 S&W L to actually crimp the .32 acp.
This seemed to work...but I then realized that the .32 S&W L crimper was a ROLL crimp....and I had always been taught the autos headspaced on the case mouth and should be "taper crimped".
MY fantasy is that the Lee FCD carbide resizing ring is resizing the finished case only to a shade more than .337.
This isn't quite enough for my two .32 acp pieces chambers which are .338 and .337 base and mouth.......and
That the "roll crimp" is taking the edge off the case mouth and allowing the cartridge to chamber completely.
I believe it is working because they are headspacing on the RIM.
Does this seem right to the group?
Is it OK to "roll crimp" my 32 acp
Yes I know that if I was seating the bullets perfectly straight they would not buloge the case...but...couldn't find a "precision guided bullet seater" in .32 acp

Pleasanton, Calif. -- Taxes related to Safeway's effort to pay down debt reduced its first-quarter net income, but the company's adjusted results beat Wall Street's expectations as its revenue rose, the Associated Press reported.
The company earned $25.1 million for the quarter, compared with $96 million a year earlier. This includes a tax charge related to a plan to pay down its U.S. debt with part of a $1.1 billion dividend in cash and debt from its Canadian operations.
Revenue rose 5% to $9.77 billion, beating expectations for $9.45 billion. Same-store sales rose 3.5%. Excluding the impact of fuel, that figure rose 0.4%.
The grocery chain said that its sales are consistently improving. Safeway's profit margin, however, was hurt by the higher prices it paid for the gasoline it sold during the period, and its shares fell.

"We're going on tour, men! Want to come along?" bellowed California head coach Mike Montgomery late Tuesday morning.
Monty led off his teleconference with a bang, already clearly in midseason form as he briefed the local media on his team's upcoming trip to Scandinavia, kicking off this weekend.
Over 10 days, Montgomery will take his Bears on a five-game, three-city swing which will give his Bears plenty of time to bond, as well as to integrate newcomers David Kravish, Christian Behrens and now-eligible guard Justin Cobbs, who sat out last season after transferring from Minnesota.
"We're playing five teams in 10 days, so we'll have some off time. Typically, on these tours, even if you have a game on a certain day, you'll, if you're going to a certain place, you'll find something in the morning, you'll sightsee, you'll go to whatever that town has," Montgomery said. "It's not like you lay in bed all day and have a pregame meal and all that kind of thing. It's about travel and it's about meeting other people, seeing other cultures, experiencing other places, so just to walk around town during the day and do other things. We have a meal with one of the teams after one of the games, I think we'll do a couple clinics in a couple of the places. We're on a cruise ship -- I couldn't tell you where -- from one place to another one night. That'll be kind of fun for the guys. There's a lot of stuff that we'll be doing."
Click Here to view this Link.One pair of players that has already done plenty of bonding as freshman roommates -- Alex RossiClick Here to view this Link. and Emerson MurrayClick Here to view this Link. -- will be seeing their first action in quite some time. Rossi had season-ending hernia surgery several months back, and Murray had a metal plate in his foot removed, an artifact from a broken foot that caused him to miss much of his final prep season.
"I would say that Emerson and Alex are in the process of getting back to 100 percent," Montgomery said. "They're still not there yet. They've had some good days and some bad days. We went six days in a week last week, which was tough on them, physically, but they made it through. I think they've made progress, but they're not anywhere close to 100 percent."
Sources from around the program have said that Rossi is chomping at the bit to get back on the floor, and has shown flashes of his deadly outside shot, a dimension which the Bears missed last season.
Also on the mend is Pac-10 Freshman of the Year Allen Crabbe, who tried out for the Under-19 US National Team along with classmate Richard Solomon. During that sojourn, Crabbe suffered a nasty blow to the face which broke his nose in two places, putting a damper on what was to be a productive offseason.
"Allen's fine. He just had a broken nose," Montgomery said. "There was no guarantee that he had a concussion. I don't think that was ever fully determined. He definitely had a broken nose. It was broken in two places and he had to have surgery, so he was out for a period of time, but he was cleared to go at the end of last month, so he's been in all of our practice sessions."
Despite the injury, the dynamic wing hasn't even let a protective plastic mask slow him down. He has made some significant strides this offseason, and Montgomery expects to see the young shooter up his game even more as Cal gets its first competitive licks in since the end of its NIT run in March
"I expect him to be more aggressive," Montgomery said. "I expect him to be more physical, more confident in all the things that he can do. He was the Freshman of the Year last year, and I think he projected himself to be one of the better players in the conference. He's going to do that by being more aggressive and more confident in the things that he can do."
The trip overseas is a rare luxury. College programs are allowed only one such trip every four years, and they don't come free. For all the help a young team like the Bears can get from such a trip, it is far from an inexpensive proposition, especially for a public institution, and particularly during such trying financial times.
"We raised about 70 percent of the money through a good fundraising campaign with some very loyal boosters, people willing to help out," Montgomery said. "We actually had some money left over from a couple projects that we had undertaken, our office projects for example, so there was some money left over from there for what they would call a discretionary fund, so it was not that hard, but it was mainly through people stepping up and helping us out."
History shows though, that the investment is a sound one. A report by The Sporting News found that a random sampling of 27 teams that took their trips between 2006 and 2010 won an average of two additional games the following season.
"Well, I think one of the things is that you get 10 practices out of the deal, so we've had a chance -- we've got a couple walk-ons, we've got a couple new freshmen that are here -- we've had a chance to get Alex and Emerson back, Alex not having played at all last year, so you get a little bit of a sense of where you are at this point, see some of the improvement in some of the guys," Montgomery said. "It gives them a focal point as far as lifting, so maybe there's a little more intensity. We've had pretty good practice sessions. We've been able to get some things in and look at kids and see where we are and it's just a good gauge for what we have to do when we start in the fall."
How big a difference could five exhibition games and 10 practices make? Teams that took trips between 2006 and 2009 won an average of 22 games, again, two more than in the preceding season. Teams that traveled last summer averaged 23.3 wins in the 2010-11 season, up from 21.1 in 2009-10.
Last season, teams that made the NCAA Tournament won an average of 23.9 games during the regular season and conference tournaments. A total of seven teams made the Big Dance with 19 or fewer wins. The Bears won 17 before reaching the second round of the NIT. If that two-game increase trend holds true, those two wins -- be they due to more experience, better chemistry or both -- could very well mean that this trip may indeed be the difference in the Bears making it to March Madness. Increasing depth will be another line on the to-do list, as seven players averaged at least 15.7 minutes per game last season, with all but one player -- Robert Thurman -- averaging at least 7.4 minutes on the floor.
"From a basketball standpoint, there are five games there, we're going to play a lot of players, move starting lineups around, move people to different positions, you know, we're going to try and get some guys some experience," Montgomery said. We're not going to run anybody into the ground or anything like that. Then, the other aspect of it is, you are in a foreign country, you are with your teammates, it's a new experience, you're with each other 24/7, so there is a certain amount of guys getting to know each other better, getting out of their comfort zone, which is their select group of friends. There is a certain amount of things that happen in that way as well."
The last time Cal headed overseas, the Bears improved from a 13-16 finish in the 2004-05 season to 20-11 in 2005-06, reaching the NCAA Tournament after a trip to Italy. This year's edition will allow for some of the newer players on the roster to gel with the veterans. Newcomers Kravish and Behrens will join walk-ons Raffi Challan and Robert Filley, as well as Cobbs, in getting their first game experience in blue and gold.
"I really haven't looked at [the competition] that closely. I do know that we play two national teams, the Danish national team and the Norwegian national team, so it should be pretty good," Montgomery said. "They've got good players, so I think those will be good contests. Maybe we'll point more towards those national teams, but as I say, the objective is to get people some time. I don't want to make it about whether we go 5-0 or 0-5. That's not really a major consequence if we can get some guys some experience and getting other people some playing time that they maybe haven't had in the past."
So far, in practice, Montgomery has been impressed with the heady play of Kravish, even though he could stand to gain some weight and strength.
"David Kravish is a very smart player. He's a little under-sized. He's 6-9 ½ and weighs maybe 210 right now, soaking wet, but he knows how to play," Montgomery said. "He's a very smart player, and has fit in very well. I'm anxious just to see what he can do. Actually, Robert, Big Robert Thurman, has really improved, and if we can get him a little game experience, I think that at 260, 6-10, he's strong, he's making some nice moves inside, so we're hoping that Robert will be ready to help us some."
Behrens, who fell off many recruiting boards when he blew out his ACL just 10 games into his senior season, is having a tougher time picking up the offense, but, Montgomery says, that's one of the benefits of those 10 extra practices and the trip itself.
"Well, he's a little behind, just in terms of learning the offense. It's all new to him, coming off an ACL," Montgomery said. "He was not in a great high school program that won many games, so a lot of the stuff we're trying to do from an execution standpoint, he gets a little bit lost. We've kind of put him in a couple different positions, because we're not sure whether he's a four or a three, so that's confused him a little bit even more, but it'll just take him time just to get stronger coming off that ACL and adjust to this level. That's what this trip's for."
Two players who know their roles perhaps better than any other are returning first-team All-Pac-10 guard Jorge Gutierrez and second-team All-Pac-10 power forward Harper Kamp.
Gutierrez -- who shouldered much of the scoring load last season after the departure of Jerome Randle, Theo Robertson, Patrick Christopher and Jamal Boykin -- emerged as a legitimate scoring threat last season, after having already gained a well-earned reputation as a tenacious defender. He led the Bears with 14.6 points per game and swiped a team-high 54 steals while shooting 41.1 percent from the field and 33 percent from three-point range.
Kamp was just behind Gutierrez in the scoring department, netting 14.2 points per game, and ranked second on the team in rebounding with 5.6 boards per game. Kamp was the second-best shooter among regulars -- posting a 52.8 shooting percentage from the field -- and was nearly automatic from the free-throw line, sinking 81.6 percent of his shots from the charity stripe.
"Jorge creates his own excitement. We expect Allen Crabbe to be better, we're hoping that Harper's better, we certainly have seen that Richard Solomon is better," Montgomery said. "We've got the addition of Cobbs to the lineup, so we're hoping everybody's improved, and that includes Jorge is well. He went down and played with the Mexican national team, was going to go to the World University Games but decided to stay with us. We did we go to him out of necessity last year I would think, in certain situations, but he's got to be one of our team leaders. He's a first-team all-conference player, and we expect him to carry a fair share of the load, but we were hoping that we don't have to have anybody play the kinds of minutes they did last year."
Having Gutierrez back in Berkeley helped to spur on the offseason work ethic of the rest of the team, as the team came in to the latest round of practices in superior shape.
"We had them in summer school, so a couple of the guys were in the first session, and we had everybody in the second session over the summer, so we've been able to run and condition and that kind of stuff. That's been great," Montgomery said. "They have great work ethic in the weight room, so they're all in decent shape. Right now, eight hours is what you have, basically, for conditioning and so forth, but like I said, these practice sessions have helped. I think we're in pretty good shape. I think we have a pretty good starting point here."
Gutierrez and Brandon Smith spent much of the first half of last season splitting point guard duties, but with the addition of the dynamic and physical Cobbs, the lineup could get a bit more complicated. The additional practice time and the five games overseas will go a long way towards clearing that particular thicket.
"Obviously, Justin Cobbs hasn't played in game situations, so that will allow us to play Cobbs at the two some with Brandon, maybe move Jorge to the three some, so we'll have combinations of people," Montgomery said. "So, those guys in particular I think are the guys that we'll focus on right now to pick the offense up, and they should be able to step in and maybe play minutes right away."
Down low, sophomore forward Solomon has continued to advance in his development. Even during last season, Solomon made significant progress, and during practice, Montgomery is perhaps harder on him than he is on any other player, because of the great potential he sees in the now-6-foot-10, 220-pounder. Solomon has fed off of that, and, before long, could wind up as one of the more dominant big men in the conference.
"Well, he's a lot more confident. He's made more jump hooks and baskets around the basket than he made probably all of last year, so far," Montgomery said. "He's physically stronger, he's able to run better, I think he's a lot more confident, but he still has a little lack of experience. But, when he gets in the right spot and we get him the ball, he's done some nice things. We're pretty pleased with Richard. He just needs experience now, with how to do game-type things, end-of-game, how to use his head, the thinking part of the game."
The Bears will be without two players on the trip in sophomore transfer Ricky Kreklow -- who is ineligible after coming over from Missouri -- and junior forward Bak Bak.
Bak returned to his native Sudan this summer, but was caught up a bit of a visa snafu as the country split into two new nations and didn't return to the United States until this week.
"Bak is standing outside of my office as we speak," Montgomery said on Tuesday. "He arrived yesterday afternoon. He will not be going on the tour with us, but it's great to get him back in the United States. We were concerned."
Both the team and the coaching staff were not so much worried about whether they would get Bak back, but rather that he was safe from harm. Given the unstable nature of the region, getting Bak back in playing shape was the least of the program's worries. Trying to get him game-ready in a matter of days now will play second-fiddle to making sure he can get his life sorted out back in the States. In the end, the decision not to bring him along was an easy one.
"It's two things: One, he hasn't worked out, he's missed eight practices, he needs to earn some money and he just needs to get settled, so it's the fact that he hasn't practiced with us, and, two, who knows if he'd still have passport issues?" Montgomery said. "We don't want to risk that. It just felt like he needed to get a chance to get situated, get back in the weight room, catch up with where we are, have a chance to make some money and get ahead of that a little bit.
"Simplified, it's nothing that there really needs to be a big deal about. It's just that we weren't sure if he was going to be back at all, with all the problems he had with his passport. We're just going to let him lift weights and get back in shape here and earn some money."
Cal will leave for Europe at the end of this week, kicking off the trip with contests against the Solna Vikings on Aug. 14 and Uppsala on Aug. 15, both in Stockholm. The Bears will then bus to Oslo to play the Norwegian national team on Aug. 17 before departing to face the Danish national team in a pair of games in Copenhagen on Aug. 20 and 21.

Canadian trade negotiators are running up against bureaucratic infighting among European Union officials, who are backing away from earlier commitments in talks for a Canada-EU trade deal – increasing the chances Stephen Harper will return home empty-handed after a week-long trip to the region.
Negotiations between Canada and the 27-member EU have entered their fourth straight week in Brussels. They are part of a push by Canada to conclude negotiations on its biggest trade deal since the historic Canada-U.S. free-trade agreement of 1988 – one that would make it easier for Canadian companies to sell goods and services to 500 million consumers in the EU.
The Prime Minister's Office has tried to play down expectations for Mr. Harper's seven-day trip, slated to end June 18 after a Group of Eight meeting in Northern Ireland. But the Conservatives had hoped for a deal during the visit because it would give Mr. Harper a win while he's under fire at home for a Senate expenses scandal.
Sources familiar with the talks say in more than one instance Canadians felt they'd locked down agreement with the Europeans on a topic, only to see that consensus unravel because directorates in the EU bureaucracy hadn't signed off on the terms. They say this has happened in negotiations over trade in services, slowing the momentum of the talks, which have already been under way for four years.
"The EU side seems increasingly incapable of getting its act together to close a deal," one Canadian source said. "The various competing directorates within the EU are fighting each other, which is leading to erratic moves such as backing away from earlier commitments – actions that are on the verge of bad faith. The EU has to demonstrate it's serious about cutting a deal."
Officials with the EU delegation in Ottawa were not immediately available to comment.
Friction in negotiations comes as a bigger trade fish looms for the European Union: the United States. Leaders of both countries at the G8 meetings in Northern Ireland Monday said they plan to start EU-U.S. trade agreement talks next month – a development that threatens to overshadow Canada's negotiations with Brussels.
"We're talking about what could be the biggest bilateral trade deal in history," British Prime Minister David Cameron said at the G8 meeting at the Lough Erne resort in Northern Ireland. "A deal that will have a greater impact than all the other trade deals on the table put together."
Canadian officials at the G8 played down Monday's announcement of the start of EU trade talks with the U.S. "I wouldn't say there's a concern there," a senior government official told reporters Monday. "We're down to the final rounds of discussions and it's always difficult at the end."
Canadian government officials have repeatedly argued in private that the EU also has something to lose from not securing a trade deal with Canada before talks with the U.S. begin. Canadian officials say the EU needs to demonstrate to Washington that it's serious about making the concessions necessary to sign an ambitious trade liberalization accord.
Speaking Monday, U.S. President Barack Obama said a U.S.-EU deal will boost trade between both sides, which already totals roughly $1-trillion annually and accounts for 13 million jobs. "The U.S.-EU relationship is the largest in the world," Mr. Obama said. "This potentially groundbreaking partnership will deepen those ties."
The EU-U.S. negotiations will begin in July in Washington, and the European Union hopes to have a deal done within a couple of years. "We intend to move forward fast," said Jose Manuel Barroso, president of the European Commission which conducts the negotiations on behalf of the EU. "We intend to make rapid progress."
Canada has been negotiating a trade deal with the EU for four years, and Canadian officials had hoped to sign an agreement before the EU began negotiations with the U.S.
But if anything the trip has illustrated how far away a deal seems. During Mr. Harper's visit to Paris last week, French President François Hollande said he hoped the Canadian deal could be completed in the coming months.
Mr. Harper has insisted that Canada will not set a deadline for the talks.
"Canada has made robust offers in good faith. Canadians expect to be provided the same by the EU. We continue to make this clear to our EU counterparts," said Adam Taylor, director of communications for International Trade Minister Ed Fast. "We will only sign a deal that advances Canada's priorities. It remains our hope that we will soon achieve an agreement with the EU."
In recent days, the federal government has agreed to make it easier for European Union companies to acquire Canadian businesses. Sources last week told The Globe and Mail Canada has consented to raising the minimum threshold for scrutinizing foreign takeovers by EU companies to $1.5-billion. Deals below that level would not require government consent to proceed.
This would appear to give the European Union an edge on other parts of the world if the 27-member union and Canada reach a trade deal.
Canada has also agreed to grant EU firms greater access to bidding on procurement for provincial utilities as well as improved access to sheltered sectors such as telecommunications, according to sources close to the talks.

Clang/LLVM Install Within Slackware?
I would like to install the Clang/LLVM compiler suite within Slackware since I use it as my default C compiler for my C programming assignments. I am currently building it within a build directory inside /usr/local/src (/usr/local/src/build) and wish to install it after compiling. I am following the build instructions on the Clang website:
./configure and make are doing what I expect but there are no instructions for "make install" on the clang website at the end. Should I run make install and if yes within the build directory or elsewhere? The actual source code is in /usr/local/src/llvm. Should I have created the build directory in /usr/local/bin instead? Can I just move it to /usr/local/bin after make finishes?
Slackware newbie here. I mostly installed prepackaged software in other distros before (Debian/Ubuntu and Fedora).
You can use an SlackBuild to automatically make a package from the source code.
Read this:
And then head here:
And download the source and the SlackBuild script.
"This optionally builds with the clang compiler. In order to
enable building clang you have to pass CLANG=yes to the script."
How do I pass CLANG=yes to the script? Should I pass it at the command line:
./llvm.SlackBuild CLANG=yes
or more likely alter this line in the shell script from:
or should I just have a:
line near the top of the script? If the latter is true, should I also comment out the "CLANG=${CLANG:-no}" line from the script?
Also any harm to rerunning the script since I did not run it with CLANG=yes initially?
Sorry for my newbie level questions.
Here's what you want:
CLANG=yes sh llvm.SlackBuild
If you modified the script to say "CLANG=yes" then you shouldn't need to re-run it.
Did you actually install the resulting package after it built?
So I still have to invoke pkgtool or installpkg on the generated tarball in the /tmp directory?
I presumed that the script ran a make install (or equivalent) step at the end.
I have since tried to build version 3.0 by downloading the source tarball from the Clang/LLVM website and even after altering the VERSION=2.9 to VERSION=3.0 in the script and changing the name of the actual source tarball slightly (it was named llvm-3.0.tar.gz when the script expected llvm-3.0.tgz) the script hangs up after initially starting and running briefly. I presume this is secondary to the tarball being arranged in a way it did not expect. The LLVM team originally implied that the Clang source be placed in a llvm/tools directory within the extracted llvm source while the Slackware Builds seems to place both as gzipped tarballs in the same directory as the extracted SlackBuilds script. Just to clarify this attempt to build version 3.0 is a 3rd attempt after having run (and rerun) the build on the 2.9 source tarball downloded via the link in SlackBuilds.
Is there a particular trick to trying to be on the bleeding edge with some Slackware builds? Should I be fetching the source tarballs from a particular location? Or just wait for the sources to be linked to from SourceBuilds. What I am asking is how tied am I to running the version stated in the SlackBuilds site?
The SlackBuilds script seems to create one tarball that presumably has both LLVM and Clang. Will test it later. I have not "installed" yet if I understood you correctly.
Sorry for my stream of questions. I am learning a lot in the process.
Thanks again.

I am most definitely *not* a gossip type person but I thought I would share something with you.
Now this is completely supposition on my part so if nothing comes from it .. well dont blame me
As some of you might remember my brother is a fighter pilot (did a post a long time ago about him graduating from Sheppard and how I learned I'm not destined to fly) and he is currently stationed in Iraq. This is his 3rd tour there (with a couple tours in Afghanistan in between).
To make a long story short, he is a rather non-communicative sort of person. Him and I can go 6 months w/out talking to each other w/out a hitch and he rarely communicates with our sister while on tour accept for the occasional "Hey, I'm alive... I'll write more later" (and he favors her a lot more than me :P).
Anyway, both my sister and I recieved the following email this morning at exactly 7:02am PST:
Just want to let you know, whatever you hear on the news, i am doing just fine.
And thats it.
Now we have never gotten anything like this from him before. And to quote my sister:
This is very different than anything I've received before, so I'm sure something "big" happened. I'll let you know more when I find something out.
Anyway... if this turns out to be something (and lets hope its nothing) lets pray that our troops are ok out there.
Yes I remember your story well. About him becoming a fighter pilot and your hometown hero, and you not making the cut.
Sound chilly indeed. I hope he and all of our people there don't have to go though something much worse than it is now before it begin getting any better.
Any chance maybe someone with a similar name was hurt or something?
Let's hope that's all it is. If he's stationed outside the Green Zone, that would be worse, and indicate perhaps coordinated assaults, but we'll know more in the next few days.
When I saw the title of the thread, my first thought was "when is something NOT going down in Iraq?"
When I saw the title of the thread, my first thought was "when is something NOT going down in Iraq?"
Buildings and bombs seem to be falling all the time. Isn't the bigger news when things go up?
An F-16 went down yesterday, that may be what he's referring to.
It just hit the wires shortly before 1600, ET. Just go to Google News and enter "F-16". it was from Toledo. 180th Wing, Ohio Air National Guard.
Hope he's okay.
Isn't it weird that I have to find out what happened in Iraq w/ one of our F-16s from a Chinese and Canadian website (no info on any of the major news sites before 5pm MST)?
I just dont get it.
And no Ive heard nothing back from him...
Yea. American News is just another way for people to make money, not necessarily report the news.
Wow, that's gotta suck. Glad your brother's okay, par, but I feel bad for Sonny's family.
Not something I'm happy to be right about.
As sad and tragic as it is, at least it's a singular incident and not something horrendous on a huge scale as par was thought it may be.

ST. PETERSBURG — It didn't take Matt Garza long to get a sense of what his old Minnesota buddies had planned for him Sunday.
Leadoff man Denard Span, the Tampa Catholic kid with whom Garza goes back furthest in the Twins organization, battled from a two-strike deficit to extend his at-bat to 10 pitches before flying out. As he crossed by Garza on his way back across the field, he couldn't keep a straight face.
"I go, 'Damn D,' " Garza said. "And he just gave me a little grin."
Though the consensus is that the Rays came out way ahead in the November 2007 trade that brought Garza and shortstop Jason Bartlett to Tampa Bay, the Twins got the better of it Sunday with a 3-2 win in the first meeting with their former top prospect.
Brendan Harris, who went to Minnesota along with Delmon Young, homered, and the Twins pretty much beat Garza at their game, with tough at-bats, bunts, bloop hits, good defense and lockdown pitching.
"I came from there, I know how they play," Garza said. "They did what they had to do."
Garza pitched extremely well for seven innings, and he tried just as hard afterward to maintain the matchup wasn't a big deal and the loss no more disappointing than any other.
But as often as he said the Twins deserved credit, his frustration seemed more evident. "It's one of those losses," he said, "you just have to choke down."
Garza wasn't the only one down in the clubhouse, as the Rays let a chance for their first three-game sweep of the season slip away. They tried to take some solace in the series win (coming off a five-game losing streak) and getting through a rugged stretch of 40 games in 41 days (and nine cities, from Seattle to Miami) with a 20-20 mark, and 25-28 overall.
Manager Joe Maddon sent them off to have fun on their first day off at home of the season and with orders not to think about or watch baseball.
"It's extremely welcome," he said. "It's really been bizarre the lack of days off and the way we've been all over the place. It's going to be good for everybody."
The Rays had their chances to leave happier. After Harris' home run — "I was able to ambush him," he said — they tied it on Carlos Peña's AL-leading 17th homer, then went ahead on just-called-up Matt Joyce's first at the Trop, which was rocking with 26,579 fans.
But the Twins rallied, if you can call it that, to tie in the sixth with two bunts and a single by Justin Morneau, then went ahead in the seventh with an infield single (on a ball that Peña made a great diving play on), an opposite-field single and a blooper by Carlos Gomez that was just inches beyond the reach of second baseman Ben Zobrist.
"You couldn't have thrown it any better," Maddon said.
The Rays, meanwhile, repeatedly hit the ball hard but in the wrong places. Gabe Gross lined out to right — where Span "Spidermanned," Garza said, to make a great leaping catch — and to the mound. Zobrist lined a ball right at Harris at short. B.J. Upton ripped a ball that hit the top of the leftfield wall. Longoria grounded out with the bases loaded in the fifth, Gabe Kapler with two on in the eighth.
"What are you going to do?" Garza said. "Just walk away and hang out with the kids."
And then he did just that, Popsicles in hand for 6-year-old Matthew and 3-year-old Sierrra, who were waiting for him in the hallway outside the clubhouse with big hugs and no concerns.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (May 5, 2009) The University of Kentucky Area Health Education Center (UK AHEC), in collaboration with the Kentucky South Eastern Medical Interpreters Association, will host the second annual South East Medical Interpreter conference June 18 and 19 at the UK Student Center.
The Tennessee Association of Medical Interpreters and Translators (TAMIT) has joined UK to present this conference. The keynote speaker is Cynthia Roat, a member of the National Council on Interpreting in Health Care (NCIHC) Standards, Training and Certification Committee.
"Cindy has been, and continues to be, a leading voice in the field on medical interpreting, from her earlier days as principle author of the Bridging the Gap medical interpreter training program to her current duties," said Carlos Marin, health careers coordinator of AHEC.
In addition to Roat, the conference will include workshops on a variety of topics, from the latest news in certification to practical applications in the everyday work life of a medical interpreter.
"If you are looking for a job in the field of medical interpreting, a Job Marketplace will be held during the conference," said Marin. "We hope you will seize this opportunity to come learn, network and to enjoy the company of your fellow interpreters."
In 2008 the Medical Interpreter Network of Georgia (MING) reached out to medical interpreter associations in neighboring states to plan the first event. Joining MING were the South Eastern Medical Interpreters Association (SEMIA) in Kentucky, the Tennessee Association of Professional Interpreters and Translators (TAPIT) and the South Carolina Health Interpreter Association (SCHIA). Held in June of 2008 at Emory University, the event attracted participants from the southeast region and beyond.
For more information about the conference in Lexington and to register, contact Carlos Marin by email or at 859-323-8018 or 606-776-7740. For the latest information about this conference and about other events in the southeast region, contact Lynn Fors by email and include the state you currently reside.

As I walked into my local gun store the other day (Guns Warehouse in Cedar Park) the friendly salesman greeted me and said "I think I have something that will interest you!" He was right — he had the new Smith & Wesson M&P9 M2.0, which I had yet to fondle.
The first thing I did was try the trigger and I can confirm that it is indeed miles better than the original version. The trigger blade itself was pretty much unchanged but the updated mechanism provided a trigger pull with just a hint of roll before cleanly breaking. Reset was relatively short, but you could definitely feel a "click" when you hit the reset point. The difference is damn near night and day but we need to get Jeremy on the case with his trigger testing gear to give you the full run down.
While the original M&P was relatively slick sided, the M2.0 shows more stippling than my acne-afflicted face during my high school years. In my opinion it's just a hair over the line between "grippy" and "painful," but that's not a bad thing. As the gun wears in and get used that stippling will wear down a little bit and be more comfortable to hold.
First blush impression: I like it. It's definitely an improvement over the original M&P design. But we need to run it through its full paces out on the range. We've got one winging its way to us from Smith as I type. Watch this space.
37 Responses to First Impressions: Smith & Wesson M&P9 M2.0
The only thing I didn't like about it was on the 5-inch that I saw and Flat Dark Earth it has a new type of loaded chamber indicator it's got a little mechanical lever that detects the round in the chamber and pops up looks very chancy it's not on the four and a quarter inch size gun just on the 5-inch for some reason. I like the traditional little Half Moon opening in the top of the chamber that you can just look down straight down on the top of the weapon and see if there's a round in the chamber. And who doesn't check just to make sure by doing a press check? I hate those little ridiculous things they add on for safety reasons fixing something that isn't broke. But the triggers are much better I would like a little bit more positive click on the reset but it is night and day difference. I'd like to see a comparison between the Apex modified trigger in an older model gen 1 M&P 9 compared to the new 2.0 version of the M&P 9. Any probability of such a comparison in the near future?
The Ruger SR9/40c also has the loaded chamber indicator. My wife and daughter love the feature since all one need do in low light conditions is run your finger over the slide and have tactile verification of a loaded chamber. Me, I never press check. NEVER. I know the condition of my weapon at all times. Condition 1 or 1.5.
It's a habit I picked up in competition. But I agree I also know the condition of my weapon at all times. Sometimes competition I'll give you bad habits that's one I probably need to correct.
Suppose it needs a loaded chamber indicator to have a chance of getting on the California roster, and maybe that's why they added it? Dunno.
Yeah it's just kind of weird how they did it to the one model the 5-inch in Flat Dark Earth I haven't seen one a 5-inch in Black yet but the shorter version the four and a quarter inch barrel it doesn't have the loaded chamber indicator like that it's got the old school one the half moon where you just look down in it just kind of crazy how they did it to one maybe you're right maybe it is so that they can sell them in California but I thought you also had to have the stamping where the cartridge casing is stamped by the firing pin with a code that tells it what firearm it comes from I thought that was the new law in California that's why all these pistols were starting to fall off the approved pistol list that you can pick from geez what a horrible state.
Nice post, really. You might consider getting that period key fixed in the near future, though! 🙂
I was rethinking your entire post. I get what you're saying and like that the M&Ps come with a variety of different options like with or without the external safety. Options are always good. But when recommending a 9mm pistol for new shooters, I invariably go with the Ruger SR9c. Loaded chamber indicator, check. External safety, check. Magazine interlock, check (though this feature may be removed and/or reinstalled). Both my wife and daughter carry these, .40 for Mom, 9 for daughter. And the price is very reasonable.
Adjustability is good. I bought LC9, removed external safety and mag interlock before ever firing it. Mag interlock has always been stupid to me, you really have to twist yourself into knots to justify it, if someone is trying to take my gun I am not attempting to drop the mag, I am attempting to SHOOT him! The LC9 has a heavy trigger with a mile-long pull, the last thing it needs is an external safety, it is only there for CA. If I left it there it would never be in the "safe" position, except of course by accident in the moment I needed to fire to save my life. They took 15 minutes to remove, with help from Google-fu.
Have you tried the Canik TP9v2? Of the striker fired wonders, I think this has the finest trigger and reset. Now my new EDC and waiting tirelessly for the release of the TP40v2 whenever Turkey gets its act together.
The only M&P I own is the 22c. Great gun for training new shooters. Doesn't seem to like Federal ammo though, but so far it eats all else I've fed it.
I just checked the price on these at my local gun shop, $720. For that price I could buy two more TP9s.
That is over MSRP from Smith and Wesson I believe our shop has them for 589 for the four and a quarter inch barrel length and I think 6 and a quarter for the Flat Dark Earth One. Yeah because they're brand-new some places are probably going to try to rape you. Unfortunately capitalism at its finest. If you wait a little bit once they get more of them out to the gun shops into the internet suppliers you'll be able to get one probably very reasonable I would suggest checking Buds Guns. They usually have a reasonable price because for what they're asking for that gun at your local gun shop I got a 5-inch performance center M&P 9 full size with the ability to put a red dot on top with a match-grade ported barrel 4709 at buds. And it's got an excellent trigger in it but of course the performance center did a trigger job on it.
If that's just the number that they have on it in the display case,
1: That's the sucker price. They'll cut it back to MSRP or less in a heartbeat if you ask.
2: Rethink giving business to shops that post a sucker price.
Ummm yeah these are under $500 all over Gunbroker. And +1 on the Ruger SR9. I tried it out and am getting one(the 9E model anyway). It's like my LGS has never heard of the internet. Who knows I may get the S&W used some day…oh and I did ask for a better price at another local shop-the guy looks at me like I was insane. I buy and sell for a living…duh.
I have the Ruger 9E & I can not say enough good about it. I looked at what I now call Scrap & Worthless when I was shopping for a full size 9mm & would not have bought one no matter how cheap it was. Cheap was the the entire theme. "Long after the sweetness of a cheap product wears off the bitterness of poor quality remains forever", or at least until you stick someone else with it.
The fit and finish takes a know for having the extra material on the frame where the safety cut out is
I'm interested to see a 9c when they come out.
I was rethinking your entire post. I get what you're saying and like that the M&Ps come with a variety of different options like with or without the external safety. Options are always good. But when recommending a 9mm pistol for new shooters, I invariably go with the Ruger SR9c. Loaded chamber indicator, check. External safety, check. Magazine interlock, check (though this feature may be removed and/or reinstalled). Both my wife and daughter carry these, .40 for Mom, 9 for daughter. And the price is very reasonable.
Is Smith and Wesson thinking polymer striker fired 9, 40, and 45s (Glocks) sell like smart phones? Are they right?
Glock change the world and hand gun manufacturing hands down in 1980. They changed it from gunsmith hand assembling each firearm how to forge steel frames and barrels. 2 CNC machines Mass producing Parts Barrel slides and form injected molding machines with specialized polymers nylons and even fiberglass field rip frames has completely changed the way guns are manufactured in the United States and all over the world now. Gaston Glock brought a revolutionary industry change to the gun industry.
It was progress no doubt, but I find myself completely disinterested in the the latest version of each one. I don't get excited about and or upgrade my smartphone every new model number and those improve a lot more each iteration than guns do. Nick is going to have to do a song and dance or maybe show a little skin to make this interesting.
Lordy, lordy, Puh-leeze (!) don't tempt him!
As I said in the previous article about the version 2.0, it sounds like they ship with an Apex trigger upgrade. It's about time.
I imagine it's the same grip texture as on my Shield .45, in which case I think it's JUST right: not TOO aggressive, and a lot better than the "M1.0" generation.
Can't wait to get my hands on an M2.0 to check out, I may have to pick up an M&P again.
I handled a new Shield .45 and a new M&P 2.0 at a range yesterday. I can confirm that the grip textures are the same. And I agree with Nick's statement that it's borderline painful, but probably in a good way.
Argh, they added the front fish scales to this one too?
Looks like a friggin machining accident.
That is the first thing I thought too. What a weird and useless place to add slide grip texture.
It's like the usual guys were all on break, and the staff intern tried his hand at making one.
And then they never came back, and he had to finish the whole run by himself.
We agree on this one. I take back all that crap I said about you.
Be interested in the 2.0 accuracy. I have a m&p 9 purchased in 2013. Accuracy beyond 15 yards is marginal at best. Many on the internet state the 9 variant has an issue with the barrel unlocking early affecting accuracy at longer ranges. Looking at getting an apex fitted barrel to improve accuracy.
I see they compromised on the front serrations for the guys that do press checks and the guys that don't.
I like better triggers and front serrations. I'm not sure if we'll get these or the old version at work.
In my opinion I would get an older version and put an Apex Trigger in it. And I also wonder if the new back straps with more aggressive texture will fit the older guns in the M&P series?? Anyone know??
I would've gotten the 40cal 2.0 I am a 357 sig guy an the barrel swap will not work.
I've been carrying my M2.0 for a about a week now and while I like the new stippling in my hand, up next to the bare flesh of my hip I'm not such a fan. Nothing a bit of sanding won't fix but I'll probably carry it a bit longer before I commit.

Cheyenne Regional Medical Center, Laramie County, WY
Cheyenne Regional Medical Center in Laramie County, WY, heads a statewide effort to educate and facilitate health insurance exchange enrollment among the uninsured and underinsured.
The "Enroll Wyoming" initiative is a partnership led by the Wyoming Institute of Population Health, a division of Cheyenne Regional, using a $400,000 navigator grant received from the Department of Health and Human Services.
The Institute came together with previous community partners from an earlier Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services' Health Care Innovation Award to launch the "Enroll Wyoming" campaign. The statewide collaboration includes one website, www.enrollwyo.org, which helps to limit confusion since it's the go-to resource. Individuals can also call 2-1-1 from anywhere in Wyoming to speak with operators who have been trained as navigators and have a calendar of local campaign events.
Those local events are the main strategy for outreach. The campaign deploys navigator teams as message experts into the communities via education and access events hosted and promoted by "trusted messenger allies" – organizations that the public trusts and feels comfortable going to such as hospitals, libraries and behavioral health clinics. "Enroll Wyoming" relies on its allies to identify and reach out to those who have been underinsured or uninsured in the past few years or are working on payments.
"Leveraging those established relationships where we provide the expertise and our allies connect us with their community has been our secret sauce," said Tracy Brosius, who helps to lead "Enroll Wyoming" and serves as operations manager for the Wyoming Institute of Population Health. "Wyoming is a frontier state with over 98,000 square miles to cover, so we have to go to them."
More than 75 events have been held since October 1, with 18 of the 26 hospitals in the state participating thus far. In addition to hosting events, hospitals have campaign navigator teams conduct staff briefings on the health exchange to dispel myths and answer questions.
"We've created a whole other mini army of advocates in each of those communities," said Brosius. "Hospital staff have extended our reach beyond events, creating a huge ripple effect."
That ripple effect is critical to Wyoming, where Medicaid hasn't been expanded and the uninsured rates are among the highest in the nation. While it's difficult to know the number registered or enrolled thus far, "Enroll Wyoming's" goal is to enroll those 50% of the state's 83,000 uninsured who qualify for tax credits.
"Our larger vision is about building bridges between health care and the community – and different bridges," Brosius said. "Our role is to ultimately move all of the uninsured into the insured status, and we see this collaboration as a learning laboratory where we can share best practices."

Jay-Z joins St. Louis Rams during postgame celebration
Normally, it wouldn't be very cool if a player's agent joined a postgame celebration.
It's a little different when you're agent is one of the most successful rap artists ever.
Jay-Z, whose Roc Nation agency represents Rams running back Todd Gurley, joined the team after their win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday. Jay-Z broke down the huddle in the locker room after the win.
Break us down, Jay Z!https://t.co/Gmn1inzioL— Los Angeles Rams (@RamsNFL) December 14, 2015
The rapper's client, Gurley, dominated the Lions, running for 140 yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries.
Jay-Z then posed for photos with several players.

I guess it's not wise to do browse such servers? I think that in native IRC clients, listing all channels is discouraged anyway. Or maybe we should have a protocol to get a list of channels but not keep them in core - let the client keep the list? ===== Miguel A.L.

ONE of the founders of a leading music school has gone solo.
Damian Keyes, one of the original people behind the Brighton Institute of Modern Music, has launched his own music school to turn young children into rock icons.
The 37-year-old from Hove will be supported by a team of professional musicians to tutor youngsters from the age of seven.
Among his cast of young talent at DK Music Academy in Hove are drummers, guitarists and vocalists who have starred alongside the likes of Dizzie Rascal, Feeder and Jessie J.
Mr Keyes, who has performed alongside Alanis Morissette, Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan and Turin Brakes, said: "Everyone likes music but people get put off the idea of learning an instrument because they think it will be all scales and classical tunes.
"We want children to fall in love with an instrument by showing them from the start how cool they are to play – and how easy it is to master their favourite songs."
Anyone interested in taking up the electric guitar, acoustic guitar, bass guitar, drums or vocals can sign up for a free half hour taster session at the specially designed school at Hove Enterprise Centre in Basin Road North. Visit dkmusic academy.co.uk for more.

This homeless papier mache donkey has ended up sitting on its ass.
The newspaper-clad animal was spotted leaning against a bin in Lansdowne Street, Hove.
Vaguely resembling Winnie the Pooh's friend Eeyore, the animal is sitting upright rather than standing on all fours. Perhaps once a piñata, the animal may have been the centre of attention at recent Halloween and firework revelries before being abandoned in the street.
Do you know where the donkey came from? Email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Those ubiquitous plastic bags are making news as another town in Westchester County votes to ban their use. Professor Lin Harmon, Assistant Dean and Director of Environmental Law Programs, commented on the effectiveness of such tactics in curbing the environmental impact of the bags routinely distributed by grocery stores and other merchants.
Asked by "The Journal News" if such local initiatives are effective, Prof. Harmon commented: "Where the problem arises is often where the solution is found, and sometimes it spreads to a much wider area," Harmon said. "On the local level, people take pride in their communities and don't want plastic bags lying around. In larger political jurisdictions, the problems become more diffused."

Daily Deal 1/12/13: J.Crew
Every morning I wake up to an inbox overloaded with special offers, deals, flash sales and hot items. So why not let me do the work for you? I have looked through them all to pick the deal you just can't miss! Whether it's an on trend item, a fantastic sale or a classic staple piece, rest assured I will give you the daily deal worth buying.
I love looking at sale merchandise on J.Crew's website. And now, all sale merchandise is an extra 30% off. Not bad, right? Especially if you have had your eye on some of their pricier cashmere or jackets.
One thing I've always loved about J.Crew's sales is their massive selection. There are always great items from shoes to sweaters to dresses to jewelry. And jewelry is where I think you will get the most bang for your buck. J.Crew always has amazing accessories and with the extra 30% being final sale, you can get some great pieces to spice up your wardrobe without spending a ton. There are pieces from Lulu Frost, Liberty as well as J.Crew. But also take a look around the whole site as there are some fantastic blazers and such definitely worth consideration.
