Excessive hair fall post pregnancy
Hello mums!
Anyone here experiencing the same? When I was pregnant with Haley, my hair is sort of thick but when I gave birth, it starts falling off real bad. How can I treat this? I don't know the reason behind, I wish it would just stop.

44-year old Michael Foulkrod of Waterloo has waived his right to a preliminary hearing and his case will head to an Ontario County Grand Jury soon after the first of the year. Last Saturday, Foulkrod allegedly attacked and attempted to abduct Geneva City Council member Jackie Augustine as she was jogging near Pulteney Park.
Foulkrod then sped away in his van and minutes later struck and killed 77-year old Karl Grune downtown on Elm Street. He has been charged with second degree murder in Grune's death because it happened in commission of a felony. Foulkrod faces charges in Seneca County too for breaking into a home last summer in Waterloo and sexually abusing a person there.

Automatic Active Ring Balancers
- Last Updated: 05 May 2017

- In: Automatic Balancers

Automatic / Active Ring Balancing Systems
Automatic (Active) ring balancing systems are designed to correct unbalance in rotating machinery while they are operating. unlike traditional "off-line" balancing techniques, which require the rotating asset to be stopped and often disassembled while corrections are made, Hofmann balancers monitor rotating imbalance and provide real start-up and shut-down cycles. These permanently installed balancers are proven to reduce maintenance cost and improve performance.
The balancer is installed permanently onto the rotating shaft; sensors continuously monitor the vibration levels while running. When an increase in vibration is detected above a pre-determined level, the controller initiates an advisory message as to the change in state of the unbalance. It then instructs the balancer to make an automatic balance correction, See how they work.
The balancing systems provide the ability to continuously monitor the state of balance of the rotating system. Rather than "covering up/masking," a balance problem, the balancing system continuously reports the state of the system's unbalance, thus providing diagnostic information used to predict system health and optimise service outages.
These balancers have been applied to fans, pumps, turbines, generators, compressors, grinders, lathes, spindles, centrifuges, drive shafts and aircraft propellers.

Condition Monitoring Services
Our multi-technology Condition Monitoring Services programmes may include some or all of the following methods, which then enables a comprehensive Maintenance Strategy and Schedule of Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) to be implemented:
As a recognised leader in the field of condition monitoring service techniques, we utilise vibration analysis in a wide variety of rotating machinery applications. Potential problems such as imbalance, looseness, instability of mountings, gearbox and bearing deterioration, misalignment of couplings, and lubrication deficiency can all be easily detected. Early identification of these machine conditions reduces the chances of secondary component damage, improves reliability and therefore maintains efficiency.
Our on-site fluid sampling and advanced lab analysis enable us to monitor oil condition and contamination in addition to identifying abnormal machine wear and debris levels. Lubrication programmes can then be introduced, which will improve machine life and help save you money.
Thermal imaging has proved to be a critical element of the condition monitoring process. We utilise the latest in thermal imaging technology to provide a highly accurate indicator of emerging problems.
Electrical surveys, are used to identify high resistance joints, overloading and localised heating.
Mechanical surveys help to uncover component deterioration, friction, misalignment and temperature dependant process disorders,
Building surveys show heat loss through inadequate insulation across the building envelope and assist in the location of leaks.

" Brand: Philosophy / Texture: Cream / Type: Moisturiser / Skin type: for dry skin and for all types "
First of all, I should say I have dry skin that gets flaky patches all the time, and is incredibly sensitive. I was worried when I got the great awakening that it would bother my skin, but decided to get it after using philosophy's hope in a jar theraputic moisturizer, which worked well. I'm glad I did--after one use of the great awakening, my skin was noticeably softer, and my flaky patches were gone. Even days later my skin was still soft. About the packaging...this comes with two major parts. First, capsules which you open and put in a small jar and mix with water to make a jel, and then a cream--you do not mix these two together before application. After applying the jel to your face, you apply the cream over it and they react and foam. After three minutes, you can wash it off or scrape the foam off with a small plastic scraper for more exfoliation(or you can shave it off if you are male). Some people find all the steps included annoying, but I don't mind them. However, I would suggest using only half a capsule at a time and reducing the water by half when making the gel. Otherwise you waste a lot of gel. This way you get 20 uses instead of 10, which is much more reasonable for the price you pay. All in all, I'd happily recommend this to anyone--especially people with dry skin. Oxygen Foam Ingredients: water, cetyl alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, polysorbate 40, sorbitan palmitate. Catalyze Enzyme Capsule Ingredients: catalase, mannan, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, magnesium stearate, citric acid, sodium bicarbonate, stearic acid
This may well get the award for the most horrid skincare product I've ever had the misfortune to buy. You get two containers of product, and you mix the requisite amount of each together and apply to your face. It's supposed to brighten, tighten, scare away any spots and generally be an all-round miracle. Hmph! What I did not realise is that one of the bottles basically contains hydrogen peroxide - and that's it. So what you're effectively doing is bleaching your face! And not only that, wait for this. It says, for maximum effect you should shave it off. Yes! for girlies. There may not be that many advantages to being female but not shaving my face is definitely one of them - and I'm not starting for Philosophy! This just seems to have an effect in much the way that any catalyst plus hydrogen peroxide would. Nasty.

Re: Surface fitting error while using Fit
Thank you for all your suggestions, x*y did the trick... Is there any
non-brute force method to check the absolute error in the fit curve
(by which I mean that given the approximation, I could always generate
the data, compare it with my true data and find the error. But I was
wondering if there is something that Fit returns directly).
Thanks a lot for the help.

Am I missing something here? They are so cheap (well for the ones I want almost 10 bucks cheaper then other pockets/all in ones)
Do you have a review for me? Which style works the best? Do you have to wash them a certain way?
I'm curious about these too! I've been hearing a lot about them in the last couple weeks and my diapers that I used for my first 4 are shot. I ordered one to try out on my 2 year old DS2 but I'd like to know how others like them.

I just bought a used Kawaii from a friend. Here are my thoughts- They are so cheap because they're made in China, whereas most other cloth diapers are made in the US or other more reputable countries. My Kawaii is my least favorite diaper, I think it is cheap feeling, cheaply made, and does not perform as well as my others. I dont even know why it leaked the time that it did leak, because the insert was not fully soaked by any means. Its my only diaper that has leaked without the insert being full. I dont like them at all, sorry ladies, I can not recommend them, no matter how cheap the price.
Also, for dipes, I prefer using as much natural fabric as possible, so I use hemp/cotton inserts and use diapers (pockets mostly) that have a natural material touching my child. I have never had a problem getting my dipes clean, I use Ecos detergent, hot water- heavy soil cycle, and add some Baking soda and vinegar :) I dont think its all probably necessary to get them clean tho :)
I use a lot of pockets and for the price I'm pretty happy with glowbugs. Rumparooz are my hands down favourite for absorption, fit, and no leakage.
I use laundry tarts detergent, warm wash and hadn't had to strip my diaps at all in the four months I've been using them. I don't find a big difference between washing microfiber and cotton/hemp/bamboo.
For cost saving, look into best bottoms AI2 system. I have 3 inserts for each cover and the covers are the expensive part. They are very absorbent, trim and leakproof.
I've never had to strip my diapers after 2 years and using them on both my kids 24/7 :) It is unfortunate that Kawaii's are low quality, but there is a reason why they are so cheap :/ Wish I loved them, but I'm far from it. Thats awesome that the glowbugs have great customer service. If you've only used them for 4 months and the fabric is already tearing from the snaps, then thats a problem. Mine are 2 years old, have been used every single day on my very active kids, and I havent had that problem on any of my diapers. I have mainly Happy Heinys organic one size pockets, and a few Fuzzibunz. My Kawaii I have only had a few months so I cant say much about how long it will last, but i can say I hate its performance
But of course any cloth is better than a disposable, even Kawaii ;)
I used them when first starting out CD with my DD, which was almost 4 years ago. I'm not sure if they changed their design or anything, but I did NOT like them. the elastic was shot quicker than the elastic in any of my other diapers, the hook and pull diapers had to have the velcro replaced monthly, etc.. they didn't really leak though, which I guess would be a positive. I think they are ok if you're on a budget, but I'd REALLY try to find a way to invest in higher quality diapers, which also has the appeal of being able to resell for a higher value.

We love our kawaiis, BUT I think we have newer designs than the ones PPs had, we especially like the mom label bamboo diapers, the minky are nice too. The fit is great and we have no leaks. If you don't like microfiber you can always get bamboo, or stuff the regular ones with prefolds, flats or whatever you like. Kawaiis make up most of our stash precisely because of the price, I didn't want to spend too much on diapers in case they weren't a good fit, but so far, we have no complaints.

Thank you ladies for all your input, I think I will order one and see what I think of it. And then keep watching this thread for while to see if any more reviews come up because I can't order them until the baby comes anyway because I don't know if its a boy or girl, and I want to get appropriate colors and prints.
I have quite a few Kawaiis. They're ok. For the price, I think they're totally worth it, but if I had the extra money to spend, it would be far from my first choice. They're a lot bulkier than all the other pockets I have and not quite as absorbant...but they're not really that bad. They have some really cute patterns, too.
I know when I was looking at buying some for my girls a few months back, there were reviews on their Facebook page that mentioned a certain type delaminating almost immediately. I don't know if they've fixed that yet or not, but you might take a look and see.
I have 2 Kawaii Goodnight Heavy Wetters that I use for overnight. I am not crazy about how humongous they are (with both inserts) on my daughter, but they are one of the few cloth diapers that actually keep her dry overnight. She is definitely a "heavy wetter" and for a while I used disposables because every brand I tried would leak. My daughter is 11 months old and we've been using them since she was about 2 months old and they've held up great so far. I have NOT had a stink issue with them as I have with some of the other microfiber dipes we have. Hope this helps! Oh- also, I have recently found that I LOVE BestBottoms as an overnight diaper as well. The AI2...cover with a snap in insert...it also has not leaked overnight for my little heavy wetter thus far!
I think the advice "Your mileage may vary" applies to the cheap China diapers. I liken it to buying jeans- You can buy jeans at Walmart, they'll cost less, they may not last as long or fit as well, and they were made under questionable work conditions, but you saved money. Well-made jeans cost more, will last longer, fit better, and may have been produced in more ethical conditions, but will be a larger upfront cost. Some people have great experiences with China cheapies. YMMV.
For me, it's the ethical issues that are the hangup. I'm willing to pay more to know that they were made by someone who was fairly paid.

Boy Mom x 3
We have about 36 Kawaii diapers, 12 of those are minky. We are about 7 months in on our cloth diaper journey and I really like the kawaiis. We have only had 1 leak (I snapped them wrong during a 2 am change..oops!) No poopy blow outs, no urine leaks. We had a problem with smells when we got our HE washer, but I just do a soak and an extra rinse. I wash them in eco nuts and dry them on low heat. So far, so good. We couldn't afford to spend a lot of money while building our stash of CDs, so this worked for us. I don't have any other brand of diapers besides kawaii. Overall, I'm happy with them. I prefer the regular material over the minky. We haven't bought disposables in about 4 months. Yeah for saving money!
With cloth diapers you get what you pay for in terms of quality materials, ease of use, and country of origin. They are popular because they are cheap pockets for people who want pockets (not prefolds) don't care about resale value or long term use and don't care about labor standards. If you are really price constricted there are cheap and easy systems out there.
Made In China diapers are almost always uniformlly awful which is why retailers like fuzzi bunz tried it and stopped. The materials really decline in quality because they can't protect their supply line. I hate buying something that will go to a landfill when for a few more dollars I could buy something that could be resold, or lent, or gifted or just used.
I think they are lousy. I'd much rather buy a low tech system with good materials or used, more expensive diapers. My old fuzzi bunz are going on the third kid. But I won't buy more when there are so many good, ethically made diapers.
How these diapers were produced- ethics, is important too!! Another thought- You could buy used or new higher quality new pockets and make your own inserts for practically free out of old towels! I had a friend do that :) Or get covers and make your prefolds, flats, or your own design

Today I ran the US Half Marathon in San Francisco for the second year in a row. I went into this race knowing that it would not be a fast race. But I had enjoyed the race last year (despite all the rain), so I decided to run.
Prior to today's race, I hadn't run more than 5 miles since the NWM on October 16. I had bronchitis through most of October and took about 9 days off of running. I did a few short runs this week, but nothing that really counts as training. I was a little worried that I would still feel a little sick today, but no cough, no sore throat, no runny nose, woohoo! I felt good the entire race, my legs got a bit tired (mostly sore feet) but that makes sense considering my lack of training. I am happy to report that I beat my last half marathon's time by about 7 minutes so I feel pretty good about my performance.
Thankfully, today was fall back and even though I woke up at 4am I was able to get about 7 hours of sleep (maybe the most before a race). I headed up to San Francisco, easily found parking, and made my way to the starting line. There seemed to be many more runners than last year, but maybe that was due to the rain last year. The weather was perfect, cold and clear morning. The city and bay looked great and provided their normal wonderful scenery as I ran. I had planned to do the "run 1 mile, walk 1 minute" plan. I ended up running 3 miles, walk a minute, run a mile, walk a minute, run 2 miles, walk a minute, run 2 miles, walk up hill, run 3.5 miles, walk a minute, run a mile, walk a minute, run to the finish. This was due to how I felt and the congestion of the Golden Gate Bridge.
So apparently due to Presido Park Project, the race organizers couldn't use their previous race course. What this meant was that runners were only able to use the west sidewalk of the Golden Gate Bridge and we ran up the Marin Headlands (yikes!). Having 5000 runners on one sidewalk on the GG Bridge wasn't fun. There were a few bottlenecks and I stood without moving for about 4 minutes (I included this when figuring out my race time, as far as I can tell chip times haven't been posted yet). I have seen/heard a lot of racers complain about this and no it wasn't fun. But you know, I'm glad that we were still able to run the race and use the GG Bridge. I felt like the race organizers did a good job of communicating this change and it was beyond their control so it was bottlenecks or no GG Bridge. I was less excited about running up the Marin Headlands but running down and seeing the breathtaking view made up for it.
I made my way back and crossed the finish line to retrieve my metal water bottle (I love that they do this!) and my medal… oh wait no. I guess there was a snafu in the medal manufacturing and they made the medals for the April race. So we will have our medals mailed to us. I also heard a lot of complaints about this too but it sounds like it was out of the race organizer's control. They announced it at the beginning of the race and offered discounts to future races (that to me was enough to cover the mistake). Last year they mailed my shirt to me and I received it fairly quickly, so I'm confident I'll receive the medal in due time.
Overall, I'm pretty happy about today's race. It wasn't fast but better than my last race and makes me think with some training I might (fingers crossed) be able to finish the Big Sur Half Marathon in 2 weeks under 2 hours.

So I made my first trip to the range yesterday and rented several handguns. It was a lot of fun. I am having a hard time though trying to decide which gun I should get. So these are the things that I noticed while shooting:
Glock 19: Grip angle didn't seem to bother me. Trigger was nice. Overall, rather liked it.
Springfield XD: Seemed to have more muzzle flip. (Could have just been my grip, but it seemed more than others). Trigger was ok, no complaints. I was interested in the grip safety, and how it would feel/be. It felt fine, other than the first time i tried to fire it, i must not have depressed it enough, because no boom. That worried me a bit, but i guess with practice it might be a non factor. Overall, it was nice.
S&W M&Pc: I liked it because it was small. The trigger was nice. Seemed to fit my hand well. Overall, I liked it.
Taurus Millennium Pro: I was leaning towards a Taurus going into this because I like the look and price of them. It was a nice gun, but comparing the triggers to the others, I really didn't like it all that much. It seemed to have a much longer brake and reset on it which i didn't care for that much. It felt kind of mushy. The one nice thing about it is that it has the second strike capability. It also was the only gun with a manual safety. Don't know if that is good or bad yet. Because of the trigger, I would have to put this at the bottom of my list, but the price still makes it interesting. I had wanted to shoot a 24/7 pro, but they didn't have one. But if the trigger feels the same, I don't know if I would love it.
If I had to rank them on my first impressions, the would go
1. Glock 19 / S&W M&Pc
2. Springfield XD
3. Taurus Millennium Pro
So, any input from the peanut gallery? Which would you guys choose?

Protecting debtors rights
Creditors often use threatening tactics to collect debts and we can stop them
Marietta, Georgia attorneys protecting debtors' rights
Creditors often use threatening tactics to collect debts. However, nasty phone calls, aggressive letters and contacting your employer, friends and family — actions that are intended to intimidate you — may be illegal under certain circumstances.
Our Georgia creditor harassment lawyers at Gentry, Smith, Dettmering, Morgan, Schnatmeier & Collins, LLP have more than 80 years of combined experienced defending debtors' rights. We help you put an end to the harassment and obtain debt relief.
U.S. and Georgia harassment laws forbidding abusive collection tactics
The U.S. Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) prohibits specific types of debt collection methods. Debt collectors are forbidden to engage in abusive conduct, such as:
- Contacting you at unreasonable places or times — such as early morning or late night
- Contacting you at your job if the debt collector knows that your employer does not approve of personal phone calls
- Contacting you if the debt collector is aware that you have retained an attorney
- Threatening you with violence, damage to your reputation or destruction of your property
- Using profane language
- Calling you repeatedly to annoy you
- Not meaningfully identifying themselves during telephone conversations
U.S. Fair Debt Collection Practices Act prohibits deceptive practices to collect debts
The FDCPA prohibits debt collectors from providing false and misleading information or misrepresenting the truth. You may have a cause of action if a debt collector deceives you by:
- Providing a false identity
- Pretending to be a government representative or a credit bureau employee
- Representing themselves falsely as attorneys
- Threatening to take legal action that is in fact illegal
- Claiming falsely that you face arrest or imprisonment
- Misrepresenting the debt's amount
- Sending you letters that deceptively resemble official documents from courts or governmental agencies or that claim to be legal documents when they are not
In addition, they cannot take your home, possessions or wages without a court order.
Bankruptcy laws governing creditors' conduct
Under the U.S. bankruptcy code, creditors and collection agencies must stop calling, writing, emailing or otherwise contacting debtors who have filed for bankruptcy protection. We demand that these debt collectors comply with the law and hold them accountable for illegal action. Our foreclosure defense lawyers also protect your home from deceptive and abusive mortgage practices.

Two of the best central midfielders in the Premier League will go head to head this afternoon at Anfield, when Liverpool and England captain Steven Gerrard makes his 600th appearance for his home-town club, and Newcastle's French International Yohan Cabaye makes his 49th appearance for Newcastle, after joining from Lille in the summer of 2011.
Steven Gerrard in England colors – a great player
Yohan has today been interviewed in the Independent, and he has talked about the game today, and just how good Steven Gerrard is:
"I didn't know that." "I do know that it's still difficult to play at Liverpool." "I've played two times at Anfield and lost 3-0 with Lille and 3-1 with Newcastle last season. It was my shot that hit Daniel Agger and went in for an own goal."
That happens to be the only goal credited to Newcastle in six visits to Anfield. The last Newcastle player to score there was Patrick Kluivert in a 3-1 loss in December 2004." "For me, Liverpool are still a big team, a good team with good players. "
Unfortunately for them, they haven't had good results, but that's not the most important thing to us. We have to try to win the game and to have an 'away from home' mentality."
"Liverpool have to react after that result against Swansea." "We are wary of that." "We have to play as a unit and fight for the three points." "I came because the Premier League is the best league," the 26-year-old says. "To play against Gerrard and the other big players and teams was the main reason why I came here."
"I don't want to disrespect the other players at Liverpool but for me, Gerrard is the key player. He's the best player. He's still excellent and his passing is very good. He can win the game for his team with his delivery or his finishing." "When France played England at Euro 2012, Laurent Blanc told us that he was the best player and we had to look after him."
"Two games a week has been difficult" "It means we have to work harder than we did last season. We know that. We must keep working in training and keep the right mentality."
Newcastle may be catching Liverpool at a very good time or a very bad time, after their shock 3-1 loss at Anfield in the Capital One Cup to Swansea in midweek.
An early goal from the visitors could put some doubt in the Liverpool player's minds, but we've never seen Liverpool give up this season, and they fight until the end – like any good side.
But with Steven playing his 600th game and the Reds wanting to make up to their fans for that embarrassing loss in midweek, it could be a bad time for Newcastle to play the Reds.
But Newcastle are a good side, and there have been signs in the last few games that our players are coming into top form, and we've also had a full week of preparation for this game.
We are upbeat about the possibility of Newcastle winning a league game at Anfield for the first time since April of 1994.
That has to be a big motivation for our players – and we can do it.

More than ever, pets are considered a part of the family. Along with that, the share of the family budget allocated to pet-related spending continues to grow at a healthy rate. During the past few years, spending has focused on value for money. However, in 2012, we saw discretionary spending on products and services—from pet Halloween costumes to travel-related services—increase substantially.
So for 2012 and beyond, the news continues to be good for all aspects of the pet business. Overall pet industry spending has held up well the last few years, demonstrating solid if not spectacular growth, even despite the Great Recession in 2009.
Source: www.americanpetproducts.org
No time in history has seen such a wide and growing variety of products and services for pet parents and their charges. From cardiac specialists for dogs to first-class travel accommodations, there is a medical treatment for every malady and a way to fulfill nearly every pet's real and assumed whim.
That wealth of options is one reason that pet spending continues to increase despite a dip—a temporary one, in our opinion—in the veterinary spending subcategory this year.
According to American Pet Products Association (APPA) estimates, growth in this subcategory dropped markedly in 2012. While APPA projects a meager 1.5% increase for 2012, we believe the number will be closer to 3.0%—much less of a deceleration from the 8.1% of 2009 and 8.3% of 2010. Our suggested estimate revision also predicts less of a spike needed to achieve the 5.0% growth expected for 2013.
Why are pet parents scaling back on vet care? The reasons vary. For some, the long-term recession impact means they cannot afford routine care, not to mention the specialized treatments now available. For others, the confidence brought by a recovering economy was overshadowed by election-year financial insecurities.
Now, even those who are disappointed by the election results have a better sense of where they stand financially. That's why, in 2013, pet parents will be more likely to spend money on wellness care and elective procedures they've been postponing, just as spending increased after the 2008 election.
One area to watch in this subcategory is cat-related services. For the past several years, many cat owners have scaled back their visits to the vet, likely spurred by a change in vaccination protocols from annually to every three years.
Now, some veterinary hospitals are taking measures to be more feline-friendly and lure back these lapsed clients. Strategies include recommending twice-annual preventive care visits, designating separate waiting and examination areas for dogs and cats, training staff for improved cat handling and coaching clients on lower-stress cat transports.
A study released by the CATalyst Council in 2012 showed that cat-friendly practices realize a 2.6% increase in year-on-year cat visits, while non-participating clinics showed a decrease of 2% in cat visits during the same period of time. To increase overall revenues, expect vets to pay closer attention to the unique needs of cats and their humans in 2013 and beyond.
In May 2012, Inc. magazine named pet care one of the best industries for starting a business in 2012, and with good reason. Following strong growth in 2011, the trend continues this year for the pet services category, which includes services such as pet insurance, boarding and grooming.
One driver for this upward motion is the influence of retailers like Petsmart pushing services—not only in-store veterinary practices but also boarding and grooming—into the mainstream shopping experience. While this practice is not new, Petsmart is extremely adept at selling services in addition to pet products. In fact, Petsmart is so skilled at separating customers and their discretionary dollars that the company stock price increased substantially during the past five years, compared to a relatively flat S&P 500. In turn, their size and wild success levels influence the overall gains in this category.
Pet insurance continues its steady ascent as both the awareness and quality of the plans increase. While this year's estimated growth rate of 10% looks, on the surface, like a plummet from last year's 18%, the numbers are misleading. Last year's growth rate is skewed by a one-time change to the reporting calculation of dominant players with a majority—but rapidly shrinking—share of the market. Minus this anomaly, the rate for this year would be closer to 15%, with a smooth upward trend from 2011 to 2012.
The smaller companies are growing aggressively, with leaps of 50% to 100% for the year. As these smaller companies gain more share by the end of 2013, industry-leader VPI will represent less than 50% of the market—a sharp decline from six years ago, when they held a 95% share!

Using public data and our own analysis, we estimate that less than 1% of all dogs and cats in the U.S. are covered by pet insurance. This figure is much lower than the 2 to 5% that is often quoted.
Thus, the U.S. market has ample room for expansion, and that opportunity has driven a surge of activity in 2012. The U.K.-based Protect Your Bubble retail brand staked a claim here and is working to grow a brand unfamiliar to U.S. pet lovers. In the U.K., 25% of the dogs and cats are covered under pet insurance. Conversely, despite the vast potential in this country, Philadelphia-based Petplan expanded into Canada this year, while Trupanion began underwriting the American Kennel Club's pet insurance plan.
In 2013, we predict that at least one U.S. pet insurance company will expand across the pond, following in the footsteps of Canada-based Pethealth which, in 2008, acquired U.K.-based Pet Protect. We also believe the time is near for some level of consolidation in the U.S. market. We see aggressive players like Trupanion seeking additional growth by any means possible, including acquisition.
Who says you can't take them with you? More and more, pet parents—51% of them, according to a study by AAA and Best Western International—are taking their dogs, cats and other animals along when they travel. The industry is cashing in with everything from TheJetSetPets.com, "the first and only one-stop resource for luxury pet travel expertise," to JetBlue's frequent-flier miles for pets. Last summer, Washington state's Yakima Valley Visitors & Convention Bureau added a new feature on its website—a list of dog-friendly wineries, restaurants, museums and stores. Expect other tourist bureaus to follow the lead.
For people who choose to (or must) leave pets at home, online pet-sitting services are launching and expanding across the country to match travelling pet parents with locals willing to host Fido or Fluffy for a fee. Rover.com launched in November 2011 and serves clients in more than 50 cities. Four months later, DogVacay opened for business and boasts 150+ cities.
Watch for much more activity in this sector as the idea catches on with pet parents as well as individuals who choose to become "freelance pet-sitters."
The days of burying the family pet in the backyard may soon be over as services from cremation to funerals to pet cemeteries become a more suitable close for a life spent as part of the human family. A decade ago, there were next to no "pet aftercare" facilities in the country. Today, there are about 700.
While there is no hard data on profits, owners claim staggering success. In a September BusinessWeek article, the owner of Hillcrest-Flynn Pet Funeral Home and Crematory reports that, since opening in 2006, profits have increased 25% per year.
The story is much more dramatic for online "pet grieving" store Peternity, which sells items such as headstones, urns and sculptures. According to founder Colleen Mihelich, sales increased significantly between the store's launch in 2003 and the end of 2011. For 2012, she projects that sales will skyrocket to more than double.
Orthopedic dog beds. Designer sweaters. IQ-raising toys. Seat belt systems. Automatic water and food dispensers. Food—every kind of food, from basic to breed-specific to organic, a dizzying array of food at all price points.
Growth in the Pet Supplies & OTC Meds subcategory, which includes food, medicines, vitamins, supplements and more, continues to be very robust. People from every demographic group and income level are spending more on their pets. We think this will continue and that the actual number for 2012 will exceed the APPA's estimate of 6.7%.
According to market research firm Packaged Facts, pet parents spent $4.1 billion on natural pet products in 2012—a compound annual growth rate of 17% for the past four years.
Traditional and new players are taking advantage of the trend. Hill's Science Diet is being rebranded as a natural product line, and Nestlé Purina is positioning Purina One Beyond as a "values-based" food, touting "naturally delicious ingredients, small steps for sustainability and a commitment to shelter pets."
To no one's great surprise, Walmart introduced an "ultra-premium" dry dog food this year. Pure Balance touts no soy, wheat or corn additives, no artificial colors, no preservatives and no chicken by-products. With this new product, they are betting that Walmart shoppers won't walk next door to Petsmart or Petco if premium products are available right in-house.
What's behind the interest in feeding organic and non-traditional foods, such as elk, bison and salmon, to pets? Recalls. Beginning with the alarming spring 2007 pet food recalls and fatalities, pet parents grew more fearful about the safety of their pet food. They are right to worry: During 2012, Dog Food Advisor announced more than 25 recalls on a variety of brands and items, including multiple recalls from Diamond Dog Food in April and May.
Unfortunately, because pet food is not regulated, these mass recalls—and poisonings—will only continue, as will the increasing interest in foods that, while pricier, can help to prevent ER visits … and worse.
Did you dress your pet as a dinosaur, pumpkin, bumblebee or other character on Halloween? If yes, you are part of a burgeoning trend. Pet parents were expected to spend $70 million more this year than they did in 2011 on costumes. This reflects a 40% increase to similar spending in 2010.
Halloween has been big business for years, so we expect spending to continue growing in this category and for costumes to grow more elaborate and expensive. It's hard to predict how this trend might extend to other holiday celebrations, although Arbor Day leaves little to the imagination.
From cardiology to neurology, oncology to ophthalmology, the trend to increasing specialization has been underway in veterinary medicine for several years and shows no signs of abating. The AVMA shows membership of board-certified veterinary professionals growing at around 4.0% or higher for the last five years, while general membership has been slower—in some years, dramatically so.
Source: www.avma.org
What is driving this trend, and what does it mean for consumers? On the one hand, pet parents grow more willing to pay specialists' fees or carry insurance to cover it. Specialty practices open with the belief that if you build it, they will come, and they do—not just in metropolitan areas but in smaller cities as well.
We believe there is another compelling reason: the ballooning debt burden faced by new graduates. In 2001, the average educational loan debt of graduating veterinary students was about $53,000. A decade later, it had more than doubled, to nearly $119,000—and that doesn't include debt from undergraduate studies. With the average starting salary for generalists hovering around $70,000, many are choosing to pursue higher-paying specialties to lessen the number of years (or decades) they will devote to paying off student loans.
For consumers, more specialists mean more options for treating and curing their pets' maladies. However, it also means that the costs of veterinary care will likely increase across the board. We expect that more and more pet parents will seek a financial product, such as insurance, to alleviate these escalating, and ever-more-mainstream, costs of treating ill or injured pets.
The pet market is certainly booming, and proof of this vitality extends far beyond the purchase of organic foods and pet-friendly travel lodging. Take a peek behind the scenes and you'll find increased merger activity, with 40 pet-related transactions in 2010 and 42 in 2011. However, in 2009, there were just 22 such transactions, and 32 the prior year. For 2012, the upward trend continues, with most of the activity in pet product and animal health manufacturers, as well as animal health services.
There is more interest and investment in the pet industry, with new players and innovators joining the fray. We see this very positive trend continuing in 2013 and beyond.
For the consumer, it's the ultimate game of fetch. Throw out an online order and the item arrives at the front door—perhaps, very soon, the same day. If Amazon has its way, it will be the one-stop-shopping site for all your pet care needs, from treats to collars to medications. Currently, the core Amazon site includes thousands of pet supplies; a search for "leash" returns more than 46,000 items! However impressive, their domain is even larger than it appears. Amazon also sells pet products via Wag.com, part of the package when it purchased rival Quidsi in 2011. The website boasts 25,000 products, free two-day shipping on orders over $49—and no extra shipping charges on food and litter.
Of course, Amazon is not the only game in town. Watch for Walmart, Target and Petsmart to offer continuing competition for the online market for pet food, supplies and pharmacy items.
The growth of social media seems unstoppable. According to Nielsen and NM Incite, when consumers are online via personal computer, they spend about 20% of their total time on social media sites; using mobile devices, time spent on Facebook and other social media sites swells to 30% of total time online. For U.S. users, from July 2011 to July 2012, the total time spent on social media grew 37%.
Judging by the many cat and dog faces featured in (human) profile photos, many if not most pet parents are visiting these sites. To engage them, many veterinary hospitals launched or increased marketing efforts on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest this year. Veterinary practices historically haven't used these channels strategically—but we think they will continue to find their voice and their way.
One of the most heartening changes this year is the ban on retail sale of cats, dogs and rabbits in Los Angeles. With the new law, L.A. joins 27 other cities in North America, including Toronto, in forbidding the sale of these animals in pet stores. While this cannot yet be called a trend, we predict that if one more major U.S. city, such as New York, follows suit, many others will as well.
This new law will not only help shelters and rescues to find an increased market for "second-hand" pets, it will also put a serious dent on the demand for cute, high-margin but genetically and emotionally unsound puppy mill litters.
Let's hope this is the beginning of the end for these notoriously inhumane animal production facilities and their traditions—which have no place in the business of adding love and companionship to enrich so many lives.

35 Replies to "Why? Because they are Jarheads."
If they really wanted to be traditional, they should place an order for '03 Springfields & watercooled Browning 1917 mg's.
Nobody ever said the military brass were not short sighted, after all, they fought against the M-16 rifle and had the F-4 Phantom built without guns.
Oh yeah, they fazed out the "Ike jacket" 6 months after I bought one in 1963…
Well, at first, their opinion of the M16 was justified. The A2 and later ones are pretty good rifles, but…
How much flak will you receive for suggesting that the 1911 is a bad idea.
The British Army still uses Hi-Powers (they also use Sigs, though).
Tsk tsk tsk… If you're not hatin' on AR's, you're hatin' on 1911's. Let go the anger, brother, and feel the looooove.
This purchase is not for the whole USMC, only the SOCOM portion MARSOC. These Marines have the knowledge skill and motivation to keep their pistols running. Now the pistol in question is not an actual 1911, but a Colt XSE, which is based on the 1911 but is much more reliable than the original. The GLOCK 21 and other similar pistols were ruled out due to their grip size, which could not accommodate smaller hands.
OK…going to try and make this brief…
MARSOC (Force Recon elements) throughout the Corps have been using 1911s for decades. Up until the last 10 years or so, their MEUSOC 1911s have been built and rebuilt on Colt M1911A1s, keep in mind that the last Government order for 1911A1s was in 1945. In recent years, they purchased some slides and frames from Springfield as well as some complete guns to build guns etc.
When Det 1 was formed they bought Kimber Warriors which were referred to as the ICQB Pistol, by all reports, they sucked.
Now the Corps was looking for a "Commercial Off The Shelf" or "COTS" item to use for their MEUSOC sidearms. It takes a lot of time to custom build a 1911 and they're liking the railed frames as the previous method of light attachment, the add on rail is no longer available if I recall, for the life of me I can't remember the maker of that part but I seem to recall it being discontinued….any way….
When the RFP came out for this go around, it was pretty 1911 specific as the RFP contained language that the submitted pistols had to use the single stack, 7rd magazines all ready in the system. That rules out pretty much everything other then the S&W 945.
Now, as for the USMC being "stoo-pid" for this, remember that we are still in a multi-fronted engagement in the War on Terror and rolling out a completely new pistol, gear, and training program is not as easily done during war efforts as they are during peace time. This contract is not 22 mil up front.
"Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity contract by the U.S. Marine Corps for up to 12,000 M45 Close Quarter Battle Pistols (CQBP), plus spares and logistical support.
The CQBP contract is for a five-year period and has a potential value of up to $22.5 million. The CQBP expands on a long history of MARCORSYSCOM re-building original Government-issue 1911s, primarily for use by Force Recon and MARSOC units."
It's UP TO that amount.
They want to use materials all ready in the system and not have to retro fit any of their training and support programs…I'm OK with that.
Are there better options? Yeah, I'd say so.
Now as for the XSE being "better" than the original, well quite a few modern 1911s are better than the M1911 and M1911A1, but the XSE is no big winner in my book.
I think that so far the only agency that's done the 1911 gig correctly is the FBI with their Springfield Customs.
Even if you look at the testing of these Colt XSE Rail Guns, a majority of the samples (10 guns were submitted) cracked up during a 12000rd test and there's rumor that this will be looked into further.
That's not that great seeing as how the gun that became the M1911 passed a 6K round test in 1910.
HOWEVER, we don't know exactly what kind of abuse these guns were put through, but if you read between the lines, Colt is beefing up the recoil spring assy. with parts used in the 10mm Delta Elites to help prevent cracking etc.
If they burned through 12K rounds in a couple of days, yeah I'd expect some increased wear and tear so I'm withholding any judgement on Colt until more data is available.
I know if I were Springfield I'd be contesting the bid after seeing those pictures, unless the Springfield guns did worse…who knows.
As for the maintenance concerns, that's why they are going with a COTS item with less hand work required and including replacement guns in the contract. etc.
Personally, having had a Colt XSE, if I were to make a decision based off of that single sample, I'd go with something else. Of my dozen+ 1911s, the XSE didn't like to run dirty and would start getting a little finicky after about 150-200rds fired.
Regarding the Glock 21, I wouldn't cite this as Gospel:
Here's a segment from Stay in the Fight!! by Kyle Lamb
"When the Marine Corps tested the Glock 21, several trigger pins broke, the weapons never stopped firing and the broken parts were only detected during routine cleaning and maintenance. This story is often told, but those opposing modern weapons that contain polymer parts routinely leave out the part about the weapon continuing to function. It seems the pistol did extremely well, passed the test with flying colors, but the commandant of the Marine Corps at the time decided he knew better and didn't want his Marines to have a plastic pistol."
Also, keep in mind that pretty much every firearm in the US Arsenal has a manual safety which the Glocks don't have, contrary to whatever you want to call that dongle in the trigger, it's not a "manual safety" in the terms that many expect regarding those features.
….so much for brief, I'm going home.
More or less this; Like it or not, MARSOC has been using 1911 pistols for DECADES, and they have plenty of armorers who know what they're doing.
Hate on the particular model of 1911 they chose all you want, but don't hate on them going with 1911 pistols. Had they gone with something else, they would have needed new tools for their armorers, new equipment for each individual soldier, new training for both shooters and armorers…. In short, sticking with the 1911, at least for now, is a very intelligent decision. While it may seem to have a higher up-front cost, that cost is offset by the other factors.
In the long run they will certainly move to a new pistol, but in wartime while the Executive branch is trying to force through massive budget cuts to military spending, is not the right time to do so.
Many of the negative factors surrounding the mighty 1911 are "man made". When JMB invented that gun, it was reliable,,,,then man got involved and changed specs, and attempted to tighten tolerances, etc. Take a stock 1911 with 230 Gr. Hardball and it should run fine
This is news to me. I had already thought they settled on the M45 or something a year or some months ago. Is this the actual 'M45' pistol? Or completely different.
Bleh I'll look into it more when I get off work later tomorrow morning.
If I had to, I would not want to beat someone to death with a polymer framed gun. Good choice Marines!
Miguel is f'ing with my sacred cow. I would be willing to bet that given the current economic climate in Europe, being domestically sourced was either in the bid requirement or garnered big points.

Stock levies on cancelled warrants subject to Queue-Based Rent Capping (QBRC) will be adjusted according to QBRC rules (including anti-abuse measures): metal eligible for a 50% rent discount will be liable for only 50% of the stock levy. The stock levy will not apply to metal eligible for rent-free storage under QBRC. Stock levies will continue to be invoiced on a half-yearly basis: the stock levy for 1 January 2017 to 30 June 2017 will be invoiced in early July 2017 and the stock levy for 1 July 2017 to 31 December 2017 will be invoiced in early 2018.
A complete listing of fees and levies is available. Fees and levies may be subject to VAT and other applicable taxes. For more information please contact us to discuss your enquiry.

What color should my cabinets be if my walls are brown?
2 Attachment(s)
I recently moved into a house and painted the whole house in browns. The kitchen is a chocolate brown color. I love it, but it doesn't quite go with the cabinets. I was planning on restaining my cabinets a darker brown, but 1. polyshades doesn't have a dark color that isn't a red and 2. several people have said it would be too much brown if I did them darker. I was thinking about maybe painting them, but I'm not sure. I would rather not paint the cabinets, but I think something needs to be done with them.
Here are a couple of pictures.
I had very old stained kitchen cabnets in my home(25+yrs old). The process of sanding, primering, painting and sealing is a long process( 1 full week) but it pay'd off really, really well. My kitchen looks sweet! and the cost was way less then refacing, restaining or replacing.
I painted the inside of the cabnets a lighter color(lite biege) than the outsides(mocha brown). I used behr pain with the primer already in it.
Wash the down with a TSP solution from home depot first to cut threw any grime that has built up on them. let them dry overnight, sand, primer, paint, seal...done
2coats primer, 2coats paint, 5coats polyurethane...
Maybe you could mix your own stain color? If you add green (of a compatible paint) to the red dark brown stain, the brown will become more neutral, and it will make the brown look warm.
But maybe there are other options to bring in some contrast (or is it the cabinet's brown you don't like)?
think of black and/or white trim. or whitening the grout between the backsplash tile.
Adding white porcelain doorknobs could also make a difference.
Good luck, Evelien
I would paint the cabinets a creamy white - right now the kitchen looks too dark, and the current cabinet stain color looks dated. A creamy white paint will fix both problems :)

While celebrities may sometimes be biased against anyone with a camera, it's nice to see stars let their guards down and enjoy the moment every now and then. Like television journalist, author and talk show host Katie Couric who, on June 21, married 50-year-old financier John Molner in East Hampton, New York.
Although it was a very private and intimate event, Couric and Molner, like any other newlywed couple, wanted to have their special day documented for all eternity—in this case, by established, New York-based Brian Dorsey of Brian Dorsey Studios.
"Celebrities want to be comfortable with you, know that you'll fit in with their event, believe that you will get them what they want and, more importantly than usual, trust in your integrity," says Dorsey (one of American Photo's "Top Ten Wedding Photographers in the World"), who landed the job after having recently become the "go-to" photographer for Couric's wedding planner, Elissa Held.
Dorsey explains that, "Trust plays a greater role than usual when working with 'members of society' and other 'people of note.' It's not just the photos, it's also keeping the details of their events, their lives and their guests strictly private and safe." Dorsey describes that with celebrity weddings comes, inevitably, celebrity guests. "They are sensitive to having cameras trained on them and in these situations they want to relax and let down their guard. You need to make them feel like you're just a friend shooting for them and not for yourself."
Another difference in photographing for celebrities, adds Dorsey, is that the photos are not only of interest to the couple themselves—essentially there are more hands in the image bank. "You'll work not only with wedding planners but also with management representatives, assistants, public relations staff, writers, photo editors, etc. and sometimes even contend with security clearance," he explains."You have to be sure that you're getting the shots that your client needs to get out to the media as well, and then be able to get them out often within hours."
Despite all of the work Dorsey has to commit to when photographing a high-profile event, he stresses one key ingredient over all: "We've learned that this kind of trust gets earned over time. You need to consistently demonstrate those qualities to planners and other industry people throughout your career. It is hard won and easily lost."

Panda & Penguin Hyperlol
I've just read the following tweet from Chris
When I see people moaning within the SEO community I always like to have a look and see what it's about. I need the drama in my life, without which I'd be nothing.
Now the link provided is pointing to a wonderfully titled article – Finally: An Easy-to-Understand Link Building Plan to Help You Recover from Penguin and Panda (I'm glad it's now really easy…) Whilst reading said post I noticed something about keyword anchor text.
Targeted keywords – Never waste anchor text on non-descriptive links like "read more" or "view video." And avoid sending them to your home page, too. Make your anchor text work by using targeted keywords to get the best SEO value.
O.k, I mean it's every SEO's decision to decide on how they do things. Different experiences, sectors, whatever. But why then a few paragraphs later do I read…
Non-descriptive links – Finally, don't forget to use anchor text that has zero keyword value. I'm talking about links like "Read More" or "Download this free book." But if you are creating good content you won't have to worry about "non-descriptive links" as you will naturally get them.
Come on man! Which one is it!?
Is this a case of someone getting so bored of writing the same old stuff that they have forgotten what side they lie on?

Wait – wasn't the main issue with Penguin-hit sites crappy links with aggressive anchors?
And you're telling them to recover by going after keyword-heavy anchors?
This. This is ridiculous. Love Neil, I really do, but giving this advice is just bad.VA:F [1.9.22_1171]VA:F [1.9.22_1171]
The thing I love about the SEO community is that best practice is always being discussed and negotiated fairly openly. This is the other side of the coin really, you're going to get some dud advice every now and then… yet, this mistake is a very confusing one.VA:F [1.9.22_1171]VA:F [1.9.22_1171]

UPDATE 2-Fridman's L1 Retail to buy Holland & Barrett for $2.3 bln
* UK chains hit by consumer slowdown, online challenges (Adds analysts, background)
* Corn price lowest since late June 2012 * U.S. report shows stocks higher than expectations * New-crop corn underpinned by unwinding of bull spreads * Wheat falls with corn to 9-month low (Updates with corn two-day drop milestone, wheat condition ratings) By Rod Nickel WINNIPEG, Manitoba, April 1 Chicago corn prices experienced their biggest two-day drop on record, tumbling 12.6 percent, or 93 cents, as larger-than-expected U.S. stockpiles weighed on the market. Pressured by corn, Chicago wheat fell to its lowest nearby price in nine months, and soybeans hit a nearly three-month low. Chicago Board of Trade May corn on Monday fell 53 cents, or 7.6 percent, to $6.42-1/4 per bushel, touching the lowest price since late June and flirting with its expanded daily limit of 60 cents. The 12.6 percent drop in the nearby contract over two days was the largest ever for a spot month contract. Corn sagged on selling by hedge funds, said Arlan Suderman, a senior market analyst at Water Street Advisory. "I think this market is going to stay softer awhile yet." CBOT floor sources said funds have sold 75,000 CBOT corn contracts over the past two days, or 375 million bushels of corn, which represents more than 35 percent of last year's U.S. crop. The outlook is not so bearish for new-crop corn contracts, however, with most of the planting season ahead. September and December corn fell more modestly after the U.S. Department of Agriculture forecast last week, in line with expectations, that U.S. farmers would sow 97.3 million acres. "The stocks report certainly is taking precedence because of the correction in the bull spread," Mike Zuzolo, president of Global Commodity Analytics said, referring to positions that were long nearby corn and short new-crop months. The USDA surprised the market with forecasts for old-crop corn supplies, estimating the stockpile at the lowest in nine years, that beat the average estimate of the lowest in 15 years. It pegged corn stocks as of March 1 at 5.399 billion bushels, above the average analyst estimate of 5.013 billion bushels. The USDA also said farmers would plant the highest corn acreage since 1936. Although corn and soybean stocks were larger than expected, three years of declining production have depleted supplies, leaving little leeway for a bad harvest. March 1 stocks for both crops were the smallest total on that date since 2004. Cold weather this week in the U.S. Midwest and showers in the Plains hard red winter wheat region will slow early corn plantings, but also help boost wheat production prospects, agricultural meteorologist Kyle Tapley of MDA Weather Services said on Monday. "Next week temperatures will be warming and it will be drier in the Midwest, so there is improved planting weather," Tapley said. "And rains will be increasing in the Plains so that will help the wheat crop." The colder weather in the short term helped underpin new-crop corn prices and may have left wheat primed for a short-covering rally, Zuzolo said. CBOT May soybeans gave up 14 cents, or 1 percent, to $13.90-3/4 a bushel, on the bearish USDA stocks data and long liquidation. USDA's estimate for soybean stocks of 999 million bushels was 7 percent larger than the average trade number and topped even the most bearish forecast. May wheat lost 23-3/4 cents or 3.5 percent to $6.64 per bushel. Investment bank Goldman Sachs added to the bearish mood on Monday by lowering its price forecasts for corn, soybeans and wheat, citing the larger than expected stocks, trade sources said. Goldman cut its three-month price forecast for Chicago Board of Trade corn futures to $6.50 per bushel from $7.50 previously. For CBOT soybeans, Goldman lowered its three-month price forecast to $13.50 a bushel from $14 and cut CBOT wheat's outlook to $6.50 from $7.80. USDA grain export inspection data, which measures the volume cleared at ports or in position to be exported, came in higher than a range of trade estimates for corn (19.1 million bushels) and wheat (25.7 million bushels). Soybean inspections of 16.3 million bushels were in line with expectations. The worst drought in more than 50 years has left the U.S. Plains wheat crop struggling against dry soils. Rains now would help the crop get off to a good start after winter dormancy. USDA on Monday said the U.S. winter wheat crop was in worse shape than last year, although the crop's condition has improved from the autumn. In its first crop progress report of the year, USDA said 34 percent of the winter wheat crop was rated good to excellent, down from 58 percent a year ago. Plantings of all varieties of U.S. wheat were estimated at 56.4 million acres, up 1 percent from last year, while stocks of wheat were up 3 percent from a year ago. Wheat stocks, at 1.234 billion bushels, were 5 percent larger than expected. Large speculators raised their net long position in Chicago Board of Trade corn and soybean futures in the week to March 26, ahead of the USDA report, regulatory data showed.

Manager Bill Terry took matters into his own hands yesterday when it looked as if a protracted over-time session was on tap at the Polo Grounds.

Good choice.Very accurate gun,very tough gun.
Pain is the best teacher,but nobody wants to go to his class.
When the past smothers the present, there is only desperation. When the future absorbs the present, life stands still. In either case a decision must be made because you only live now and you are only what you are now.
My 26 is into 4000 rounds now. Never a hiccup. It was my first Glock. Sold me the rest.
Nice! Those 33rd sticks sure are some good range fun, aren't they? Nice to keep a couple around (and loaded) for the impending zombie/illegal alien hordes here in AZ. LOL
How do you carry your G26? What holster?
Well Done on your new 26. I don't own the 9mm series. I do own the 27,23,22 though, and have the 9mm conversions for all of them. Essentially making them 26,19,17. I love em.
Stop whining and go do something that makes a difference!
If you think that I may be talking to you, then I am.
I want them all!! And some of those 30 rounders.

My G23. I've run a few stitches through it to seal the trigger pocket and limit seating.

I like my Glock 26 Best the 19 and 21 are great but, the 26 can fit when you need small. A sleeved 19 mag. gives me a mid size. And my sleeved 17 mag. gives me a total hand full of ammo. If I put a 33 round mag in, look out ammo budget.
I have always been a fan of the Baby Glocks, but I still haven't had the chance to shoot one or find one at a good price. I have shot a Glock 17 and a Glock 19 and they are awesome.

I have both a G23 and a G26, and the G26 feels MUCH more comfortable concealed........
AAA+++ like all the Glock 9mm's
I have the +2 Pearce extension grip that essentially makes the grip the same size as the G19. I personally think pocket carrying a G26 is a little hard, however I'm sure with the right attire and the will to carry it is easily doable. I some times carry my G17 concealed.

I2S protocol
Does anyone has documentations that describe I2S protocol?
I'd like to know for example if audio words are signed or unsigned, if we have to care about status bits, ...
Thanks for help!
