Secretary of State John Kerry warned of "consequences" after his counterpart Sergey Lavrov made clear Moscow would respect the outcome of a referendum in Crimea this weekend on breaking away from Ukraine and joining Russia.
After more than five hours of face-to-face talks in London ended without agreement, Mr Kerry said any move by the Russian parliament to ratify a breakaway vote would amount to a "back door annexation" of the peninsula.
Earlier, Foreign Secretary William Hague, who met with both men separately, said that the US and the EU could move to sanctions as early as next week it there was no easing of the tensions.
Mr Lavrov, however, was adamant that Russia would respect the will of the Crimean people as expressed in Sunday's referendum vote.
"Everybody understands that Crimea for Russia is something really important, what it means for Russia," he said, speaking through an interpreter. "It means immeasurably more for Russia than the Falklands means for the United Kingdom."
The talks, held at the residence of the US ambassador in Regent's Park, overran by more than two hours, raising hopes that a breakthrough was on the cards.
However, Mr Lavrov finally emerged to tell reporters that there was no "common vision" on a way forward, while Mr Kerry said that he had put forward a series of "constructive ideas", only to be knocked back.
Mr Kerry said that he had reiterated President Barack Obama's warning that there would be "consequences" if the Kremlin did not find a a way to "change course".
"Neither we nor the international community will recognise the results of this referendum," he said. "We believe that a decision to move forward by Russia to ratify the vote officially within the Duma would in fact be a back-door annexation of Crimea."
He added: "If the wrong choices are made, then there will be no choice but to respond appropriately because of the gravity of this breach of international standard, this breach of international law."
He sought, however, to keep open the door to further diplomacy, saying there were "many options" for Mr Putin to respect the result of the referendum without moving to annexation.
"You can respect the vote by making sure that their autonomy is increased, that their needs that have prompted that vote are properly respected, without necessarily made the decision to annex," he said.
"Until he has made his decision, those options are still on the table and alive and we hope he will make a different set of choices."
Mr Hague said the decision by the Crimean parliament to stage the vote on Sunday had effectively created a "diplomatic deadline" for any further talks to succeed before "other measures" would have to be taken.
"This is a referendum which doesn't meet any international norm or standards; it's taking place without a campaign, without an electoral roll, without the political leaders of the country being able to visit, in the presence of many thousands of troops from a foreign country," he said.
Mr Lavrov however rejected calls for the creation of an international contact group to resolve the crisis, insisting that it was a matter for Ukraine and Russia.
"We do not need an international structure to look into Ukrainian-Russian relationship. The relationships have never been ceased," he said.
"The framework of foreign ministers' contacts were never ceased, so any questions there are could be raised in direct dialogue."
Mr Lavrov insisted Moscow had no plans for a "military intrusion" into the largely pro-Russian eastern Ukraine following clashes in the city of Donetsk, between pro- and anti-Moscow demonstrators.
However Mr Kerry said the Kremlin needed to be clearer that military exercises involving thousands of Russian troops on the Ukrainian border were not intended as a threat to their neighbour.
"All of us would like to see actions not words that support the notion that people are moving in the opposite direction and in fact diminishing their presence," he said.
"I think right now, in this particular climate, given what has been happening, we really need to hear a more declarative policy in order to make clear where Russia is proceeding with respect to these troops and these exercises."
Mr Hague described the failure of the talks to achieve a breakthrough as "deeply disappointing" and called for a "firm and united" response from EU foreign ministers when they meet in Brussels on Monday.
He said the time had come for "tougher restrictive measures to be adopted as previously agreed by EU nations".
"The door remains open for diplomacy and dialogue and we urge the Russian government to take action to lower tensions and enter into direct talks with the Ukrainian government," he said.
"But we are clear that the flagrant violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine cannot go unchallenged, and we stand with the Ukrainian people in their right to choose their future free of intimidation and interference."Reuse content

Because the appearance of the Button-Text is controlled by the
CellOption ButtonBoxOptions, which is a list of options you could use
for Button (or alternatively a style name of the current stylesheet).
This option is somewhat hidden in the option inspector but can be found
in Formatting Options -> Control Options -> ButtonBoxOptions. If you
change the settings there to e.g. {FontFamily->"Courier"} you can
achieve the same changes from the options inspector and will change the
appearance of all buttons within that cell. Many, including me find it
easier to use a programming construct like Style, though. Also note that

Inside-out: Speculating on the interior
Smith, Catherine D. (2004) Inside-out: Speculating on the interior. IDEA Journal, 2004, pp. 93-102.
|Accepted Version (PDF 4MB)
In this paper, I have speculated on the interior as a site and an idea of betweeness. Feminist philosopher Luce Irigaray (Irigaray 1999) has associated the concept of interior with dualist and gendered philosophies. Nevertheless, the interior as a site has offered many opportunities for artists and occupants to challenge how we inhabit and change architecture. In this paper, I will focus on a design project that involves experimental making and living as part of a subversive approach to architecture: suggesting that we might re-conceptualise "interior" as the space of betweeness rather than the space of the contained. This paper, part of my ongoing doctoral research, has extended ideas about the interior that I explored in the 2003 IDEA journal and has reflected my personal experience of collaborative, experimental design practices. The purpose of my research is to explore the betweeness of spatial practice

Fresh off the success of its popular toy/game Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure, Activision announced a sequel is in the works.
The game Skylanders Giants will be unveiled at next week's American International Toy Fair in New York.
Skylanders is an action game featuring collectible figurines players can bring to life in the game using a special portal. When players place the figurine on the portal, that character will appear in the game.
Skylanders Giants will introduce eight new regular-size, collectible characters and eight giant Skylanders that are twice the size. The game will also feature characters that light up when they are near or on the portal. Also, all the figurines available in Spyro's Adventure will be compatible with the sequel.
Giants will host a new story-based mode as well as "advanced integration" across all platforms, Activision says in a statement.
The game is slated for release this fall. Activision did not disclose details on which platforms will be supported. Spyro's Adventure is available for PCs, Macs, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii and the Nintendo 3DS.

Former nurse awarded €208,000 for unfair dismissal
A former nurse has been awarded €208,000 after it was proven in court that he was unfairly dismissed.
Mario Gerada claimed that on April 2, 2008, he had been informed that he was being fired from Zammit Clapp Hospital where he was employed as a casual nurse.
He was never given any reasons for the termination and was not given a chance to defend himself.
Subsequently, the Chief Government Medical Officer told the Employment and Training Corporation that Mr Gerada had resigned and not that his job was terminated.
In their response, the CGMO and the director general health care services argued that Mr Gerada's job was terminated because he was not giving patients the desired service to the detriment of their health.
In his judgement, Mr Justice Silvio Meli condemned the CGMO's behaviour in declaring that an employee who was fired had resigned.
Such falsification of truth should be harshly condemned and those in charge should take the necessary action to penalise those responsible for it and ensure this did not happen again to ensure the trustworthiness of all public documents.
This was essential for the assurance of a transparent public service that is really serious.
Mr Gerada argued that this happened in 2008 when he was 52 and he could only r tire when he was 63, so he had 11 more working years.
As his annual wage was €18,000 he should be awarded €198,000, he claimed
Mr Justice Meli upheld his request and awarded him another €10,000 for psychological consequences and humiliation.
Dr Robert Abela appeared for Mr Gerada.

I have been on the receiving end when authors have asked me to help them with their book launch, and I don't want to
make the same mistake that many of them did. What I mean is that lots of authors think it's all about themselves. They get overwhelmed and they just want everyone to pitch in and help them. I think there is a different way to do this, so I am going to go in a completely different direction from the typical book launch, this direction is toward helping you.
What I want to do is serve and reward YOU for your help. So I have designed a book launch plan, that rewards you with things such as cash, swag, products, and a massive promotional effort by me, of YOU! I want you to get much more out of my book launch than me. I believe that if I create value for you, that you will be more motivated to help me; but the act of me helping you will endure well beyond the launch week. When I mean I am going to serve you, I really mean it. I have created a detailed launch plan that will guide you in every step of the way. I have even automated certain portions to make it hands off or much simpler for you. I will provide you with guides, suggestions, templates, samples and a lot of other great information to make it super easy for you.
If you think I am full of it, take a look at the rewards under each of the packages, and then look at the requirements. Just click on titles on the left. The rewards are what you get for doing the work (i.e. requirements) that I am I am asking you to do to spread the word of my book. So browse each of the packages, pick one that works for you, and fill out the form at the bottom of the page of the option you want in, or go to the À-La-Carte tab to make your own plan. Let me know what you think of these rewards and let me know if you have ideas for other rewards. I look forward to working together.

Tom's blog Eat Rio gives fascinating insights into life in Rio and Brazilian culture generally. His passion and innate curiosity are evident in every post. He's also built up a lot of valuable information for people visiting the city for the first time. Actually, I'm sure that a lot of people who have lived there would find a lot of it useful too. Tom has a knack of finding the best food and drink wherever he is.

I scanned through numerous blogs about Brazil before I landed on Eat Rio. Tom is genius at turning his daily observations about a foreign land, its people, its culture, and its history into entertaining and engaging posts. Tom gives his readers a sense of Brazil's dynamic and vibrant way of being with his beautiful photos and subjects as wide-ranging as food, language, music, race, and translations. Tom's blog eases my "saudade" for Brazil. I look forward to reading Eat Rio everyday.

I read a lot of blogs on Brazil as a new expat here, and I find EatRio to be a great source of information, entertainment and advice. Tom makes interesting observations on all aspects of living in Rio and his witty style make his blog a fun and informative read. I always look forward to his next post. His photos are stunning, they could have a website of their own.

Like Brae, I also read through numerous blogs on Rio but found Tom's particularly helpful. Eat Rio was a fantastic starting point for me travelling to Rio for the first time. Whilst I am a fan of nice bars and restaurants, I love going to hidden gems that many tourists would not know about. I went to a few of the restaurants that caught my eye and the reviews he had given were extremely accurate. I will definitely be using his recommendations again when i next travel to Rio. I strongly recommend that others whether 1st time travellers or not use it too.

With Eat Rio, Tom has created a funny and insightful reference for anyone interested in getting under the surface of the expat experience in Brazil. Great for a good laugh, or as a tool to plan your trip to the Marvelous City. Anyone wanting to go beyond the stereotypical idea of the carioca lifestyle and the Rio experience should definitely visit Eat Rio.

This is one of my favorite blogs about life in Brazil. Tom's posts cover a variety of interesting topics, even venturing into Brazilian politics on occasion. I've especially enjoyed his posts about Brazilian music, where I've learned about incredibly talented artists whom I never would have known about otherwise. The comment threads on some of the posts include lively exchanges of ideas, and Tom often takes the time to post personal replies. Tom has managed to foster a sense of community for people with a shared interest in Brazil, and to me, that's the sign of a highly successful blog.

New Foundation to Support Research Collaborations between U.S. and States of Former Soviet Union
This material is available primarily for archival purposes. Telephone numbers or other contact information may be out of date; please see current contact information at media contacts.A unique public-private partnership to strengthen scientific and technological collaboration between the U.S. and the states of the former Soviet Union has begun its work with a first meeting to set priorities and policies. The board of directors of the U.S. Civilian Research and Development Foundation for the Independent States of the Former Soviet Union (CRDF) held its first meeting September 13-14 at the National Science Foundation.
The CRDF was announced by President Clinton May 10 in Moscow, and established by the National Science Foundation under a congressional authorization. The CRDF is funded by a $5 million gift to NSF from philanthropist George Soros and a $5 million matching contribution from the Department of Defense. This initial $10 million fund will support basic and applied research efforts, and promote defense conversion and development of market economies in the countries of the Former Soviet Union. All research proposals funded by CRDF will be selected competitively through merit review.
"The scientific community of the Former Soviet Union is one of the world's great scientific resources, but it is a community in crisis," said Gerson Sher of NSF's division of international programs. "Its resources are vastly inadequate. By continuing to identify and support collaborations with the leading researchers, we will help preserve this resource for the benefit of the American and worldwide scientific communities." At its September meeting, the CRDF Board of Directors agreed to commit the majority of the $10 million during the first year of operations (1995- 96) through competitive grants for cooperative research proposals between U.S. scientists and engineers and their counterparts in the Former Soviet Union. The board expects to announce specific plans and guidelines for a basic research competition within the next month.
Despite being congressionally authorized and partially publicly funded, the CRDF is not an agency of the U.S. government. Authorizing legislation enables the foundation to accept donations from public and private sources, both foreign and domestic.

The National Science Foundation (NSF) is an independent federal agency that supports fundamental research and education across all fields of science and engineering. In fiscal year (FY) 2017, its budget is $7.5 billion. NSF funds reach all 50 states through grants to nearly 2,000 colleges, universities and other institutions. Each year, NSF receives more than 48,000 competitive proposals for funding and makes about 12,000 new funding awards.

We used to have a stainless 220R and we had a pair of Ken Nills that looked very similar to the wood you've got on your 220. That 220R is one of the ones we miss, and those Ken Nills made that 220R easy to hold on to, and we're guessing those new Walnut grips have the same effect. She's a beaut!

Types of Digital Cameras: Why it Make Sense to Know About Them

Besides, even the compact cameras can be quite expensive and can cost from anywhere around a few hundred dollars to thousands of dollars, and they can use interchangeable lenses. But the good thing is that they are quite compact.
Many are aware of types, such as Ultra Compact, Point and Shoot , Compact with Interchangeable lenses, Underwater Cameras, Digital Single Lens Reflex, and Camcorders, but there is something known as bridge cameras as well.
Similar in appearance to the DSLR, these share the same feature with that of the compact camera owing to its permanent lens. The difference is that this type gives the user more control without the complexities of the DSLR. It is called so because it bridges the gap between the compact point and shoot types and the digital SLRs.
A slightly advanced version is the mirror-less one, which is slightly smaller than the DSLR but features larger sensors and the user can also change lenses. These cameras produce images similar to those taken by the DSLR.
As one can see, there are many different types of digital cameras available, so one needs to look at those to see what suits their needs and requirements, before choosing a new one. For casual use, one may choose a point and shoot, whereas for advanced usage one may go in for a compact system camera or maybe even a digital slr camera.

Chef Sandoval sees global growth for Latin cuisine
By Richard Leong
NEW YORK (Reuters Life!) - Chef Richard Sandoval, despite tough economic times, believes there is plenty of enthusiasm worldwide for food from his native Mexico and other parts of Latin America.
Sandoval, who owns more than 15 restaurants including one in Dubai, opened two eateries next to each other in Santa Monica, California in August.
La Sandia features his modern twists on Mexican dishes, while Zengo showcases his fusion of Latin and Asian flavors.
The 42-year-old Mexican City native spoke to Reuters about the state of Latin cuisine and the restaurant industry.
Q: Why did you open two restaurants in the same space? Isn't it a big gamble in this environment?
A: "Due to the recession and everything, it didn't make sense to do this one concept. I thought it would be too big to have one restaurant there. I thought about sub-dividing the space, having two separate restaurants. I got a great deal. It was a joint venture between me and the mall. I still feel in times like these you can position yourself for the next 10 years."
Q: How are La Sandia and Zengo different?
A: "They are completely different concepts. They are completely different designs. There are no similarities. They do not compete with each other at all. If you want Mexican, you would walk into the Mexican one. If you want more of a fusion, you would go into Zengo." Continued...

I have a feeling that the Vikings could surprise some people next year. We won't be starting a rookie at QB, we'll have Cook back, and we won't be facing a brutal schedule.
It's what happened to the Bucs a few years ago. They had a weak schedule, Freeman looked good, and they almost made the play-offs. The next season their schedule was brutal, and everything fell apart.
I'm hoping the Vikings can do things the other way around. This season could be the catalyst to winning back confidence. Play-offs are probably out of hte question, if only because of the fact that we are in one of the best divisions in football. 8-8, while not my expectation, is not out of the question, and that would be a good season, coming off 3 wins.

My best guess right now is 6-10.
Just as we see other teams as ripe for the picking, I'm sure other teams see us as ripe for the picking.

Quite backloaded schedule. Of the six division games, we have 5 in the last 7 games. That's unusual. This also means that the division most probably will be still very open after 9 games. That favors us in the circumstances we are currently in.
Of course, we would need to start out 5-4 or better for this to be a reality. And 5-4 in the first 9 is not out of the question.
Realistically, I see us winning 6 to 8 games.

I like the way the schedule unfolds. I think one of the major issues last year was the deflating start to the season and the way those games went. If the team had played as well in the 2nd halves of the first 3 games that they did in the first halves, the season likely could have gone much differently and they wouldn't be in the position to draft Kalil.
If they can get off to a good start, I could see them threatening to go .500, which would be more than I would have expected a few weeks ago.
Thx to Lil Uno!

Can't see the Vikings starting well, even with their weak-ish opening schedule due to Peterson likely not being himself early. Also think MJD will run through this D as currently constructed. There's a few games in there where I could see the team winning (namely at Colts, Redskins, Seahawks) but seeing as they're on the road, ya, I just can't see this team going on the road and expecting a win anytime soon. They most certainly aren't competing at all in this division as that's a clean sweep looming.
, which would put them in line for the top pick or so, sounds about right.

That's called realism. You honestly believe that the team you watched last year won't be among the worst in the league this year? With the division they play in? Adding no one of note throughout the entire offseason? Be real.

I was just kidding, hence the wink. I have no problem with you, or anyone else for that matter, suggesting that they go 2-14 with valid reasoning, such as you have.
Honestly though, I do think they can go better than 2-14. They're certainly not going to go 12-4 or anything like that, but can they go 6-10 or 7-9? Absolutely.

I'd call that sort of projection high end, best case scenario given this team is all but guaranteed to finish last in this division. While winning 2 may be perceived as low end, hard to see where on this roster you're going to find a great increase of production/development. And if the bell cow isn't ready, especially early where the schedule is somewhat manageable, the season is going to look awfully bad.

I think the range is probably between 2-6 wins, this in the NFL, games are often very close, and teams can go up and down quickly, if Ponder comes out and plays great, the Vikings can win 6, if he plays poorly they can win 2. People laughed a couple of years ago when I said in the mock draft forum (do to complaining about guessed order) that injuries can happen that make a drastic difference, and the Colts are an example of that. I think that 2-5 wins is reasonable, and anything over that is gravy, but this is the NFL, so you never know.

another perspective:
Even better for the Vikings is the willingness for the schedule-makers to get the Soldier Field monkey off the Vikings back. The Vikings have lost the last four games
at Chicago
and 10 of the last 11. But, thanks to luck or karma or a scheduling snafu, the Vikings are going to get as big an advantage as they possibly can when they make their annual pilgrimage to the house that Halas built this year. When the Vikings meet Chicago in Week 12, Minnesota will be coming off of a bye week two full weeks of healing and prep time. The Bears will have two days to prepare for the Vikings. In Week 11, they play on Monday night at San Francisco. Tuesday and Wednesday will be effectively out of the question as far as practices go, leaving them just two full practice sessions for on-field preparations for the Vikings. If the Vikings are on a roll when the bye week hits, this advantage could be enormous.
The final six games are a minefield of bad for the Vikings two games each with the Packers and Bears and road games against St. Louis and Houston. But, once again, the schedule-makers allowed the Vikings to control their own divisional destiny late in the season. Given the uncertainty as to when Adrian Peterson will be available or at full strength saving their games with the Packers and Bears until after Thanksgiving is an added bonus for a team that needs as much help as the league would allow.

As a Maryland resident, I think the bill is utterly reprehensible. Fortunately, the history for the last several years is that almost none of these quack bills get out of committee and then none of them pass the Assembly. Alas, none of the pro-2A bills manage, either; the best one can say right now is that Maryland gun laws are in a sort of stalemate.
I figure this to change, one way or another, after McDonald v. Chicago is decided by SCOTUS.
Honestly, the main problem with Maryland right now is the may-issue nonsense and the corresponding lack of reciprocity/non-resident permits. Without a permit, Marylanders are very limited in where they can have guns and how they can move them from point A to point B. With a permit, most of those restrictions go away.
Maryland doesn't have any particularly onerous high-cap law (you can't transfer 20+ in the state, but you can own them if you get them elsewhere), you can own NFA items, and you can own "assault" weapons. The training requirement is a 20 minute web-site flash presentation joke. There is a fairly minimal list of places permit holders can't carry.
After may-issue, it'd be nice to get rid of the registration requirement on handguns and "assault" weapons, but I don't see that happening any time soon.

Keith Oatley is a novelist and professor emeritus at U of T's Faculty of Education, OISE. For more than 25 years, he taught, researched, and published in the field of psychology. In addition to his academic background in science, his research interests have extended into the humanities, combining literary theories with cognitive science. In this Professor Spotlight, The Varsity sits down with Oatley to discuss his background and influences, how he got to U of T, the intersection of science and humanities in the field of psychology, and his advice for undergraduate students.
The VarsityTell us a little about your past. What did you teach and what do you specialize in?
Keith OatleyI was born in London, England, and did my undergraduate degree at the University of Cambridge in natural sciences. I finished my PhD in psychology at University College London, and then completed my post-doctoral studies in engineering in medicine at Imperial College. I was a lecturer at the University of Sussex, then a professor at the University of Glasgow, where I taught cognitive psychology. I immigrated to Canada in 1990.I am now a professor emeritus here at the University of Toronto. I used to teach courses on the psychology of emotions, and cognitive science. I ran the Cognitive Science program at University College, but the program has now been moved to the philosophy department. It is still an interdisciplinary program though. I am also a former president of the International Society for Research on Emotions, a fellow of the British Psychological Society, and a fellow of the Royal Society of Canada.
The VarsityWhy did you choose to specialize in cognitive science? When and where did this interest take off?
Keith OatleyWhen I was in England, at the University of Sussex, I was introduced to a new movement called cognitive science. That movement was heavily influenced by Artificial Intelligence. The idea was, and is, that if you want to understand perception, or conversation, [you need to] try to program computers to perceive and converse. A whole new way of thinking opened up, which has enabled us to move forward in very interesting and radical directions
The VarsityBefore working at U of T, what else did you accomplish?
Keith OatleyWell, I have been an academic most of my life. After completing my post-doctoral year at Imperial College in London, I worked at the UK National Physical Laboratory's Autonomics Division for a while. I also trained as a psychotherapist. I think it's important for psychology to be applied and to develop ways of helping people. I also have experience as a journalist and novelist.
The VarsityYou've written a number of books dealing with emotions. Which one is your favorite and why?
Keith OatleyMy favorite, I think, is Best Laid Schemes: The Psychology of Emotions (1992). It's my favorite because it analyzes emotions in three different fields: science, social science, and literary theory — it's written in an interdisciplinary way. I don't think it's very good just to get stuck on a particular problem in a particular discipline.
The VarsityIf you had a choice, what would you want to improve about the sciences at U of T?
Keith OatleyI wish scientists and people in the professional disciplines would pay more attention to the humanities. If there were more interdisciplinary contact, I think everyone would benefit. U of T invests a lot in professional programs, such as business, medicine, and law. Also, science is always well funded. I would like to see more resources put into the humanities.
The VarsityWhat advice do you have for undergraduates in science?
Keith OatleySpend as much time talking to colleagues as you can! That means other undergraduates, but also talk to professors and teaching assistants. You may not have such good opportunities for this when you go out into the world of work, where it can become more difficult to develop and maintain your intellectual life. Appreciate the time you have at U of T.

Congratulations. Safe shooting.
I picked my new P226 TacOps (9mm) up today and can't wait to shoot it. Even got one in the "blue" case as requested. Only thing, it appears that it did come with the grey mags (which denotes the Checkmate" mags they're using now ) which are giving feed problems. Looks like I'll be shelling out more $$'s to get the Mec-Gars because I don't want to go through all that mess with my brand new Sig. Really wish they hadn't changed brands. Man, it really feels comfortable in my hand. I'll post pics when I get it cleaned up.
Congratulations. Safe shooting.
Thanks to both of you. I'm really looking forward to shooting it, however, not until I get the (4) Mec-Gar mags that I ordered Sat. I just don't want to shoot it with the crap Checkmates that it came with having seen (YouTube) and hearing all of the problems that their causing. Alot of extra "unexpected" money even though I'm getting them at cost but I'd rather just start out right. Funny thing, Mec-Gar nor Sig knew that the Checkmates were the mags being shipped now (at least with the 226) until they checked after I told them. And the mags I get should have "Plus 2" marked on them with the finger groves at the bottom as well. Still hadn't had a chance to clean it properly for it's pic debut but I will when I get the new mags. I'll also sell the Checkmates at the store in which I bought my.
In-Sight .. you might want to check out Top Gun Supply. They have SigSauer brand magazines listed on the website, along with Mec-Gar. They have fast and realiable service, along with top quality products.
I picked up some factory mags for my P225 , and they are flawless ....
Cheaper than Dirt has the MecGar 18-rounders for about $25 shipped as well. Not sure if you're in the market for more mags, but they have'em. I purchased two of them myself, and they feed flawlessly. I'll probably get another when I start carrying closer to the end of the year (gotta get that ccw permit before November, lol).
Haha, sounds like I should have shopped around more (was going to get some +2 adapters from TGC for $15 apiece + shipping; I'm still satisfied with the mags I already got, though, since they're worth what I paid and then some). Nice find.
By the way, I love the look of the '220. Happy shooting.
by the way, were are this pics of this beast? anytime someone gets a new toy, pics should be posted so we can enjoy, and or get extremely jealous!
OK OK already. Here are the pics and it's a 226 not 220.
Limp wrist (ha)
Shakey! Holding it lefty while taking the pic right handed. The chest is safe.
Checkmates. Not the good mags . . . The Mec-Gars have the finger grooves on the bottom, says plus 2, and with their logo.
Oh yeah .. that's a beauty. There's nothing like a new Sig (or pics) to increase your heart rate .......
Got a call earlier that my mag was in. Unfortunately, mag being singular. Guess the guy didn't hit his quantity button indicating 4 but hopefully he'll order the other 3 tomorrow and I'l have them all by Fri.
BTW, without me starting another thread, what does everyone now use for a cleaning cloth? I'm going to use this "Strike Hold" (comes in a spray can) that's getting great reviews for c/l/p. Want to wipe it down since I've been handling it and to also do a clean before the first shoot. Also, has anyone heard of this one . . . only shoot 1 rnd or 2 at the most on the first firing, clean it and it's good to go. Just added protection he says. Found that on one of the sites that I've gone to. This guy is not a quack either but he says even though it can be a slight pita it will help the pistol initially. Something about some have been known to go full auto because of not being cleaned properly.
Not sure about this "fire a shot, clean it, then resume firing" bit, or about this full-auto stuff (first time I've heard of either), but for a cleaning cloth I just use an old T-shirt (I actually have two of them, one to cover the work space, and the other to wipe it down when I'm done cleaning it).
I need to stop surfing forums on too little sleep...I accidentally merged 2 threads into one memory.
Still, I love the way that bad boy looks. Happy shooting.

2014 Corvette Stingray Still Hot on Detroit Show Floor
Chevrolet lit things up the night before the Detroit Auto Show this year by inviting roughly 1,200 people to watch as it unveiled the seventh-generation Corvette, but the lighting was terrible.
With 450 hp and 450 lb-ft of torque, the car's 6.2-liter LT1 V8 is more than enough to make this the most powerful base Corvette ever. Given that, Chevy decided to revive the Stingray nameplate for a car that the brand claims has a better power-to-weight ratio than both the Audi R8 and Porsche 911.

"The fact that there are these refugees is the direct consequence of the act of the Arab states in opposing partition and the Jewish state. The Arab states agree upon this policy unanimously and they must share in the solution of the problem."
"The Arab Exodus …was not caused by the actual battle, but by the exaggerated description spread by the Arab leaders to incite them to fight the Jews. …For the flight and fall of the other villages it is our leaders who are responsible because of their dissemination of rumors exaggerating Jewish crimes and describing them as atrocities in order to inflame the Arabs ... By spreading rumors of Jewish atrocities, killings of women and children etc., they instilled fear and terror in the hearts of the Arabs in Palestine, until they fled leaving their homes and properties to the enemy."
"[among the reasons for the Arab failure in 1948 was] the call by the Arab Governments to the inhabitants of Palestine to evacuate it and to leave for the bordering Arab countries, after having sown terror among them...Since 1948 we have been demanding the return of the refugees to their homes. But we ourselves are the ones who encouraged them to leave...We have brought destruction upon a million Arab refugees, by calling upon them and pleading with them to leave their land, their homes, their work and business..."

NM snowpack light compared to past years
SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — Another blast of winter weather is moving over northern New Mexico, but officials say the overall snowpack in the mountains remains light compared with past years.
The latest water [auth] supply forecasts from the Natural Resources Conservation Service show the current snowpack is between 20 percent and 40 percent the average over the last three decades.
Forecasters tell the Santa Fe New Mexican (http://bit.ly/XyCt9f) that the potential for more moisture this spring depends on whether the storm track favors New Mexico.
Snow melting in the higher elevations usually finds its way down the mountainsides to feed river flows. How long the snowpack lasts will depend on temperature and wind.
New Mexico is bracing for low river flows as it enters its third consecutive year of drought.

Back in my restaurant days, for the longest time we had made our mark serving through two meals a day. Breakfast and lunch.
It was perfect for a vegetarian place since so many dishes for those two meals can naturally be vegetarian and no one thinks twice. Poached eggs, oatmeal, salads, eggplant parmesan. We'd have regular customers come for years and never realize it was a vegetarian place until they were craving a tuna sandwich and found out after asking that their beloved restaurant was a vegetarian place.
Then one summer we decided to try adding a third service, dinner. Two meals we had down logistically to run lean and mean staffing and prep wise, but a third meal threw a huge wrench in the operations. But we all put our heads together, everyone pushed and worked hard to make everything come together.
Even worse than the logistics was to create a unique vegetarian dinner menu that would be special enough to attract even non-veg heads to our humble but stylish establishment. Fortunately the owner's mom was brilliant in the kitchen. She always had a hand in developing most of the amazing recipes we served, and for the dinner menu she came up with some beauties.
Out of all the amazing dishes, there was one that was a hands down staff favorite. An open-face sandwich with cauliflower puree, asparagus, and a poached egg. This wasn't a sandwich trying to convert a regular carnivore treat into a vegetarian substitution. It was a brilliant sandwich which happened to be vegetarian.
So many things about the sandwich were great, but for most of us it was the cauliflower puree which sent it over the top. We could, and would, eat the cauliflower puree straight up or on some crostini. Cooked in milk with garlic until soft then pureed up. Oh so good.
You'd think the poached egg would have been the star, but so many times we would make it up for ourselves without the egg. Just the cauliflower puree balanced by the asparagus. Most of us had already been working 10-12 hours by dinner time and it was nice to have something a little less rich before going home and passing out.
So that's how we've re-created the sandwich now here at home, staff meal style. Toast up our favorite bread, a nice thick layer of the cauliflower, which we've smashed instead of pureed to give an added texture. Some roasted asparagus and finished off with the sweet refreshing slices of tomatoes.
Cooking Method:
chop cauliflower
brown the garlic
add cauliflower…
then add milk….
cook cauliflower in milk till soft
hello asparagus
roasted asparagus
voila! now assemble sandwich
now you can eat! and share.
Yield: 6-8 Sandwiches
Total Time: 30 Minutes
Preheat oven to 400º F (205º C).

Campillo: I'll win by a huge margin
Former WBA light heavyweight champion Gabriel Campillo, 21-4-1, 7 KOs, is ready for his return to the ring after a layoff of almost one year. He fights undefeated power puncher Sergey "Krusher" Kovalev, 18-0-1, 15 KOs, in an anticipated 10-rounder at the Mohegan Sun Casino on Saturday, January 19th. The fight is the feature bout in the season opener of NBC Sports Network's popular FIGHT NIGHT boxing series. The telecast will begin at 9PM ET with the Elvin Ayala vs. Curtis Stevens co-feature.
The last time Campillo fought, February 18, 2012, he thought that he had once again become a world champion. However, after 12 rounds with IBF champ Tavoris Cloud, Campillo found himself on the short end of a controversial split decision. Cloud retained his title and sent Campillo back to the drawing board. However, the fans remained on Campillo's side.
"Ever since February 12th, I hear a couple of times each day from the people that I deserved that decision," Campillo said.
A win against the rapidly rising Kovalev might be exactly what Campillo needs to receive another crack at the championship, against Cloud or anyone else holding a belt.
"I want to fight every big name in the division until I am considered the number one boxer in the 175-pound weight class," Campillo said.
The first step is beating "Krusher" Kovalev.
"He's a dangerous boxer with a very good right cross," Campillo said. "But he has never fought a world class boxer like me. I am great at bobbing and weaving and counter punching. If we go to the scorecards, I have no doubt I'll win by a huge margin. But just maybe one of my counter punches will end the fight."
The pair was originally scheduled to face off in September, but a Campillo back injury forced a postponement of the fight.
"My back is completely recovered," Campillo said. "Even though I only fought one time last year, I kept training and had sparring sessions throughout the whole year. So I am in great shape."
The fight in Uncasville, CT, will only be the third time Campillo has boxed in the United States, but he welcomes his return to the USA.
"I love fighting in America," Campillo said. "The people always treat me like I am American. I love that. Boxing in Spain doesn't have the same prestige that it does in the States. Here every sportsman is respected."
Perhaps that lack of prestige is due to the fact that boxing champions from Spain are a fairly rare breed. Campillo is one them, but feels he needs more victories and more titles before he's considered the best ever to come from his country.
"I think Javier Castillejo has won more titles than me, but I can beat him yet," Campillo joked.
