Measure Three Times, Buy Once
As long as you are taking down dimensions (see "Make sure you don't destroy the foyer," previously), stop to consider how your new appliance will interact with its surroundings. Measure that counter-depth fridge's proposed parking space, then measure the fridge—again; "counter depth" may mean "except for the thick door and its beefy handle." Look behind your existing gas range; if the gas pipe protrudes, your new range may protrude too. And watch out for a fridge or front-load washer whose door opens so wide it blocks traffic, causing frustrating delays while some family member contemplates the contents of the produce drawer or the loss of a dear sock.

text: Hi http://blogs.gnome.org/thos/2007/10/30/fedora-8-in-less-than-9-days/"Sorry about this one, but it's possibly a little pet peeve. The new GTK+ theme in Fedora 8 is not to my liking at all. It is clearly unfinished (progress bars for example) and the gradients on the buttons look (to me) like blisters on human skin. Not only does it look bad, but I seriously doubt the code quality is as good as the engines in the gtk-engines module. There are a lot of very important things to consider when writing a GTK+ engine, as it will be running on every single GTK+ application. Just look at the number of bug reports and issues associated with Ubuntu's "Ubuntulooks" engine as an example of what can go wrong (and the original Clearlooks had it's fair share of very nasty bugs too). The engines in gtk-engines are rigorously tested and very well maintained, so I really don't see any advantage in using yet another theme engine."

All the King's Men
- Studio: Sony Pictures Releasing
- Release Date: Sep 22, 2006
Critic Reviews
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
Zaillian (an Oscar winner for his "Schindler's List" screenplay) has given us an intricate, subtly rewarding narrative whose uncompromising nature and undeniable moral seriousness make it far from business as usual, even in the ever-decreasing world of quality Hollywood filmmaking.
You can, if you will, think of All the King's Men as a purely political parable, but that is to miss its blackest, bleakest meanings.
We never see enough of the small compromises Willie Stark makes on the way up to fully grasp the tragedy of his fall. Some will undoubtedly find Penn's hamboned, spittle-lashing performance a bit much, but it's a pretty close to Warren's original conception.
Some performances carry a picture, this one bench-presses it. Sean Penn's work here is so mesmerizing, so intense, so guaranteed to put him front and centre when Oscar reads out the nominees, as to almost obscure the multiple failings of the misguided movie around it.

I haven't seen the original, nor read the book that inspired both pictures, but I thoroughly enjoyed this movie in its own right. It's not "brain in the fridge" stuff, far from it and all the better for that fact. Sometimes a movie should demand something from the audience and if you take the time to immerse yourself in this one, you'll be rewarded with some fine acting performances and storytelling.

It's not action packed or full of comedy, but it is a very serious and well done film, which is something most teens don't enjoy watching these days. It stars Sean Penn, Jude Law, Anthony Hopkins, and Kate Winslet, and all of them do an extremely good job, especially Sean Penn as Willie Starks, the mayor. The story is about one man's rise to being the mayor of Louisiana and giving the people what they need, new roads, bridges, schools etc... and not allowing the large companies to steal all their money. The plot and characters are well thought out, and its no wonder the book won the national Pulitzer prize. The directing is the best i have ever seen, and I've been watching a TON of movies lately, but this one beats them all. Everything about All the King's Men is good, however i can't say that many teenagers will like it since it isn't a horror movie, or action flick, or comedy, but if you are looking for a serious film then this is perfect for you. On a scale of one to ten, five being average, All the King's Men gets a 9.25.… Full Review »

I'm running a number of sites on a Multi-site installation. I needed to change the url of one site to reflect a user name change. After I made the changes to the URL, I can now no longer access the site or site's dashboard by either logging in to that site or through the Super Admin site list.
Here's what I did to screw things up:
From the site list on the Super Admin screen, I selected "edit" for the site. I changed the URL there and saved. I was then able to get into the dashboard for the site and change it there. However, I can no longer access the site using any URL and can't access it through the Dashboard link for that site.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Slideshows simple don't appear.
Slideshows simple don't appear.
I don't see this behavior.
I have a slide show for which "Fit image into slide (Stretch image)" is set to "Yes". The slide show still does not appear.
Sorry bwhetsell,
I wanted to signal the problem in the support home page, but for error I have written in answer to your post and I don't know how to cancel
Could I please have a look at your website, so I can see what's causing the issue?
Apparently "Fit image into slide (Stretch image)" really does have some effect, I wasn't seeing that yesterday.
(But I really don't want any of my images to stretch.)
I also have troubles after upgrading slideshow to 2.2.13 (WP 3.6) a Javascript error occures:
TypeError: this.viewData[e] is undefined
Line: 1
and the slideshow isn't loading the images.
this is the line in the original source code that fails (slideshow.calculation.js line 229):
var imageDimension = this.viewData[viewID][slideID]['imageDimension'];
result: length = 0
is it possible to switch back to the old javascript until the problem is fixed?
Is anyone else having problems with centering the slideshows on pages on 2.2.13? No matter what I change I cannot get it to center.
I had the same problem when I did the version update this morning and was able to successfully revert back to the previous version via FTP that I was using - which was 2.2.11 (it appears I skipped 2.2.12).
For clarity - my problem was that I wasn't seeing any images at all. I didn't spend too much time trying to troubleshoot it. Seeing that others were also experiencing an issue, I just reverted to the previous version.
reverted back to version 2.2.11 - js works
if you need any test environment please let me know. I'll tell you the link for my test site
Have not used this on pages or posts before, and wanted to add this to a post. The space on the post is being recognized as needed but absolutely nothing appears, tried hovering the mouse to see if there maybe an active area someplace (all images have links) and nothing was noted by the cursor...
Have several in use on sidebars and getting conflicting results -- some are working, some are not...
Could this be a java issue?
Just noticed cgossy's links for 2.2.11 and will downversion for now.. have revenue depending on this plugin (which means a donation is coming once I get paid :-) )
Forgive me, wrong forum.
Version 2.2.14 has just been released. This should solve the issues with the slideshows that refuse to start when image stretching is disabled.
I'm terribly sorry for the inconvenience the previous two versions have caused.
Great success!
Thanks for fixing this so quickly, Stefan.
That's great to hear!

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) estimates that our best chance of containing global temperature rise to 2°C is to keep atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide below 450 parts per million (we're currently at 390 ppm). In addition to several other climate mitigation strategies, sticking to this cap will require significant new investment in low-carbon infrastructure and activities in developing countries.
Experts estimate the cost of funding this development to be about $300 billion annually by 2020, growing to $500 billion by 2030. The problem is, there's a huge funding gap when it comes to meeting these costs—industrialized nations have only committed to mobilize $100 billion of new funds annually by 2020 to meet these needs. The world will need to figure out a way to come up with the rest of the funding if we're going to prevent developing nations from feeling climate change's most severe impacts.
Introducing WRI's Climate Finance and the Private Sector Project
Tapping into the private sector is one way to bridge the climate finance funding gap. The World Resources Institute's new Climate Finance and the Private Sector (CFPS) initiative has been designed to specifically address how the public sector can leverage private investment in a low-carbon future.

CeBIT 2010: Call for Papers for Open Source Forum
Linux New Media AG is organizing an integrated presentation series for the Open Source Forum at the CeBIT 2010 running March 2 through 6 in Hanover, Germany. Users from organizations and agencies as well as developers from the open source community are invited to apply for a free presentation slot up until January 7, 2010.
The Open Source Software theme will get an especially attractive venue in Hall 2 at CeBIT 2010. The "call for papers" is now officially open. We're looking for practitioners who can report on their experiences using free software in business and government. We're also seeking speakers from the open source community to present new and innovative projects as well as legal topics and technologies that characterize free sofware. Noteworthy topics already part of the conference program include open source solutions for cloud computing, security, Web 2.0, desktop and mobile networking. The complete presentation program will be available per live stream on streaming.linux-magazin.de and subsequently in the online archives for free.
Interested speakers can send their proposals with the title of the talk, information about the speaker and a short description of the content up until January 7, 2010 to firstname.lastname@example.com. Talks can be in English or German. The user-based talks and follow-up Q&As are scheduled for 40 minutes; the presentations of free projects should be 20 minutes each.
The title theme "Free and Open Source Software" at CeBIT 2010 will be accompanied by the "Open Source Forum" and "Open Source Project Lounge" that should provide software projects additional opportunities to present their work to the general public.

About 200 Kiss fans protested in front of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum Saturday to demand that the band be inducted into the hall.
Fans, some from as far away as California, carried signs Saturday and had painted their faces in black-and-white to resemble Kiss band members.
Those participating in the half-hour demonstration were upset that the band, formed more than 30 years ago, has not been admitted, even though it has been eligible since the late 1990s.
Artists become eligible for induction 25 years after the release of their first record, according to the museum's Web site.
"Criteria include the influence and significance of the artist's contributions to the development and perpetuation of rock and roll," the site says.
A museum spokesman said it was the first demonstration by fans seeking to have a group inducted.
The foundation that selects inductees is based in New York City, not at the museum.

kenlove replied to Becks85's topic in Gluten-Free TravelGreetings from Kona, There are a plethora of restaurants that offer gluten free and vegan / vegetarian options here especially if you let them know ahead of time. Under the Bhodi tree with Chef Steve Rouelle located in the shops at mana lani is excellent. Most of the hotels all have options as well. My son, Rob Love, is the chef at Copper Bar at Mauna Kea Beach Resort and can fix you up as he does me -- (Or I write him out of the will (^_^)) Four Seasons does a great job as well when they know in advance. By me there is a place called Local Wraps which has some gluten-free & Vegan options too. The BBQ jackfruit (without the tortillas) is amazing. Red Water Cafe, Merrimans are also well versed in gluten-free options, but like to know in advance. If you just stop in they will have something but if they know in advance it will be something special and not just a gluten-free pasta thing. Island Naturals grocery store has a fair number of items but choice mart, the store I use has a greta selection for a small local market. Safeway and Foodland and KTA, the large groceries, dont have too much. No gluten-free bagels or breads there but the others do have them. My wife and others bake gluten-free items for the SAturday Farmers market in Keauhou so if you let me know when you'll be there ill make sure she has a good selection. ( I get the leftovers!) On Maui, there is Mana Foods and a great Whole Foods near the airport so its no problem to find things there. The hotels and restaurants have some but not as much as in Kona. Let me know if you have any questions or if you want to try weird fruit while your here. I'm the director of the state fruit growers group and past president of the ACF Chefs in Hawaii. HAve a great trip Ken

kenlove replied to Leeloff's topic in Gluten-Free Ingredients & Food Labeling IssuesHaving lived in Barcelona and worked in Milan and Parma, Ive found the many of the good restaurants are using different type of original wheats like Einkorn and Ferro and different French wheats whos names I forget. Some new hybrid wheats can have 14 times the amount of gliaden protein than these non hybrid wheats. IN japan they even have 2 names for wheats -- Komugi and merikenko (American powder)
kenlove replied to GiuCeliachia's topic in Gluten-Free Traveli would tend to agree with your mom and that comes from more than 30 years in and out of Japan. the quality of the produce, meat and fish tends to be much better than the US becsaue it gets to market much faster and becasue there is a demand for quality above the demand for low price. As it was pointed out, this has nothing to do with gluten. There are alot of things you can eat in just about any restaurant but there are things to learn like onigiri -- rice balls, are seemingly innocent but 90% of htem contain wheat starch. most larger grocery stores and department store basements you can get gluten free soy sauce. --- most chefs still assume that soy sauce is soy so never take anyones word for it when it comes to soy sauce. Of al the mixed salads at family mart, 7-11 and lawsons only the gobo salad was safe. good luck
kenlove replied to LookingforAnswers15's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & MedicationsA lot of teas in Japanese American restaurants are called green tea but in reality are other teas like gen mai cha or mugi cha. In both those cases the teas contain barley and can cause glutening -- at least in me. Real 100% green tea does not but often restaurants don't know the difference. Ask to see the box the bags came in if they are not sure or in doubt.
kenlove replied to Debby64's topic in Gluten-Free and Celiac Disease Calendar of Eventshave never seen gluten in canned tomato but you should ALWAYS check the labels.

kenlove started following Does Anyone Else Get Sick From Eating Bananas?
kenlove replied to Kim69's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & MedicationsThere are a few hundred types of bananas although we only get a few in most western stores. When you talk organic bananas there could be different types. All bananas are divided into groups of A (acuminata sugars) and B (balbisiana - starch) they are classed but chromosomes so your average williams bananas is aab or 2 parts sugar to 1 part starch -- Organic bananas at least here in hawaii and some west coast places are abb - -2 parts starch to 1 part sugar. If your store has plantains, try one of those when it gets very ripe. They are really good
kenlove replied to SusD's topic in Gluten-Free RestaurantsI travel all the time too and after some time get used to knowing what not to do. Usually I try to go to places I know have something safe -- like Chinese and Thai places -- Just get steamed veggies and rice. I do carry a small spray bottle of Braggs aminos. Otherwise I get salad unless we stumble on a place that has a gluten-free Menu. Also I ask to talk to the chef becasue the servers are always trying to please and may say something they dont understand. Its the chef who knows. -- When I cant get to the chef its sometimes a disaster like last month when they brought be a flour tortilla wrap -- That was bad enough but the vegan guy was given fish. There are some places that will never get it!

Attention, all you spooks in Washington: If you want to keep a secret, hire any one of the Amarillo Symphony's board members, or its executive director and tell them something you don't anyone in the world to know.
The symphony board held to the best-kept secret in Amarillo until Monday night when it announced the hiring of Kimbo Ishii-Eto as the symphony's newest conductor.
The announcement came during a special-event performance at the Globe-News Center for the Performing Arts and Ishii-Eto was met with rousing applause.
Ishii-Eto was one of four finalists to audition for the job. He is fluent in five languages - English, German, Japanese and Mandarin - but should be a lock to learn a sixth, Texan, once he settles into his new digs in Amarillo.
Ishii-Eto is Julliard-trained and has worked with the Boston Symphony and New York Philharmonic. He brings impressive credentials and a high level of enthusiasm.
Ishii-Eto will fill some enormous shoes.
James Setapen is the longest-serving conductor in symphony history and he steps down after 19 years with the baton. He has led the symphony through some very good years, taking the symphony to new levels that helped heighten its profile and standing.
But a new era begins at the Amarillo Symphony - now that the secret is out.
Welcome to Amarillo, Maestro Kimbo Ishii-Eto.

I want to print a list of integrals separated with spaces to stdout. The list generation is fast, so I tried to solve this problem with the sequence [1..200000].
In C, I can implement it like this:
#include "stdio.h"
int main()
int i;
for(i = 0; i <= 200000; ++i)
printf("%d ", i);
return 0;
The fastest solution in Haskell I could implement is about three times slower:
import Data.List (intercalate)
main = putStr . intercalate " " . map (show) $ [1..(200000)]
I tried ByteStrings in some ways, but with them it got even slower. The big problems seems to be the conversion of the integers to strings with show (or the conversion to ByteStrings).
Any suggestions how to speed this up without interfacing to C? It should not become to complicated (as short and beautiful as possible, using other Haskell modules is fine).

Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
The shape of nanoparticles that carry DNA through the body can be changed to increase their effectiveness in fighting cancer and other diseases, a team of researchers concluded in a paper published today.
A team of researchers from Johns Hopkins and Northwestern universities changed the shape of the nanoparticles through a gene therapy technique that carries DNA into cells without the use of virus. The team details its nanoparticle work in a study published online today in the journal Advanced Materials.
The team conducted animal tests, all using the same particle materials and the same DNA. The only difference was in the shape of the particles: rods, worms, and spheres that mimic the shapes and sizes of viral particles.
Shapes were formed by packaging the DNA with polymers, then exposing them to various dilutions of an organic solvent. DNA's aversion to the solvent, with the help of the team's designed polymer, caused the nanoparticles to take on a given shape, surrounded with a "shield" to protect it immune cells.
"The worm-shaped particles resulted in 1,600 times more gene expression in the liver cells than the other shapes. This means that producing nanoparticles in this particular shape could be the more efficient way to deliver gene therapy to these cells," said Hai-Quan Mao, Ph.D., an associate professor of materials science and engineering in Johns Hopkins' Whiting School of Engineering, and the study's co-corresponding author, in a statement.
"These nanoparticles could become a safer and more effective delivery vehicle for gene therapy, targeting genetic diseases, cancer, and other illnesses that can be treated with gene medicine," Dr. Mao added.
Dr. Mao's nanoparticles consist of compressed healthy snippets of DNA within protective polymer coatings. The particles do not deliver the genetic material until after they have moved through the bloodstream and entered the target cells, where the polymer degrades and releases DNA. That material serves as a template through which the cells can produce functional proteins against disease.
Dr. Mao, who has spent a decade developing nonviral nanoparticles for gene therapy, and colleagues were able to reshape them into rods, worms, and spheres with help from researchers at Northwestern using computer models run on Quest, the university's high-performance computing system.
The models allowed the study's other co-corresponding author, Erik Luijten, Ph.D., associate professor of materials science and engineering and of applied mathematics at Northwestern's McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science team to perform molecular dynamic simulations that mimic traditional lab experiments at a far faster pace. The computations were complex enough for some of them to require 96 computer processors working simultaneously for one month.

No enmity with neighbours: Muivah
That the decades-old Naga issue could not be put down by military means has been realized by the Union government and it resulted in the Naga Peace Accord which was signed in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi on August 3, NSCN (IM) Ato Kilonser Thuingaleng Muivah told a huge gathering at his reception here on Wednesday.
Muivah said the framework of the peace accord was based on three points of agreements but did not reveal details of the accord. He expressed belief that a final solution would soon see light of the day. The Naga leader, however, said the accord will not bring enmity with the neighbouring states but better understanding with them.
According to Muivah, the three points of framework for the accord are, India respecting Naga's history, understanding each other and New Delhi agreeing to share power on the Naga sovereignty. The Ato Kilonser warned that if there is any breach of trust by the Centre, the NSCN (IM) would not continue with the talks.
Earlier, the NSCN (IM) leader who has been assigned as the 'Indo-Naga' Political Negotiator was given a warm welcome at the Dimapur airport. He visited the group's camp to take part in the 'Independence Day' celebration on August 14. It is believed that he will reveal more details during the celebration function.
Briefing the history of the 18-year-long peace talks with the Centre, Muivah said as New Delhi realized that there can be no military solution to the Naga issue, it initiated talks with the NSCN (IM). The Nagas did not make any demand to initiate the talks and Nagas, who have their own history, had said if their culture and history are respected, they will return 10 times more to India, he said.
"After a bit of lull, India showed its willingness to respect the Nagas, their unique history and culture, following which the peace talks started," Muivah told the gathering. He said during armed revolution period, the Nagas may have committed mistakes, but when the talks started nearly two decades ago, "we have not committed any mistakes or done any wrong".
Asserting that any issue should have a logical conclusion, he said the accord is in this direction. With India committed to protect the rights of Nagas, the community in turn should understand the difficulties of New Delhi. He contended that cent per cent demands of the Nagas could not be fulfilled by India and hence to have a better understanding of the issue, the framework was signed, Muivah said.
As the framework includes power sharing on sovereignty, both New Delhi and Nagas have now reached a level of deep understanding and will bring about a lasting peace, he asserted.
"The only fear," Muivah said, "is misunderstanding among ourselves and we should work hard to prevent any misconceptions. The Nagas should now decide their own fate now. We should forget the past and take the path which is in our best interest. Unless we understand our own problems, nobody will and none will come to resolve them".
Assuaging fears of neighbouring states, the NSCN (IM) leader said the Nagas have to live for all time to come as good friends. Non-Nagas from Manipur, Assam and Arunachal Pradesh should try and understand the Naga issue and only then, a good relationship and a peaceful environment could be maintained, he said.
"Now, the dream of NNC leaders that Nagas should decide their own fate and Nagaland for Christ is within reach," Muivah said, adding that he had come to Hebron to seek Naga people's consent "and as long as God is with us, Nagas will not taste defeat. Nagas should never go against peace and if we do so, it would be our last moment. We should sit together to bring about the best way possible to achieve this objective".
Naga Hoho president P Chuba Ozukum also addressed the gathering and Naga Students' Federation president Subenthung Kithan gave the welcome note during the function. NPF legislators from Manipur and Nagaland, UNC president Gaidon Kamei and other Naga leaders were also present on the occasion.

Bossypants (Mass Market Paperbound)
On Our Shelves Now
Before Liz Lemon, before "Weekend Update," before "Sarah Palin," Tina Fey was just a young girl with a dream: a recurring stress dream that she was being chased through a local airport by her middle-school gym teacher. She also had a dream that one day she would be a comedian on TV.
She has seen both these dreams come true.
At last, Tina Fey's story can be told. From her youthful days as a vicious nerd to her tour of duty on Saturday Night Live; from her passionately halfhearted pursuit of physical beauty to her life as a mother eating things off the floor; from her one-sided college romance to her nearly fatal honeymoon -- from the beginning of this paragraph to this final sentence.
Tina Fey reveals all, and proves what we've all suspected: you're no one until someone calls you bossy.
("Includes Special, Never-Before-Solicited Opinions on Breastfeeding, Princesses, Photoshop, the Electoral Process, and Italian Rum Cake )"
About the Author
Tina Fey is a wildly popular actress and comedian best known for her involvement with Saturday Night Live. She made history there by becoming the show s first female head writer. Tina lives in Manhattan, where she is the third funniest person in her household, after her husband and five-year-old daughter.

Will this get me a job? Not just a job, but a decent career?
Kester Ratcliffe, Bristol
You don't say what course you are studying, but it doesn't sound as if it's vocational. So the only straight answer is: "No, your degree won't ensure you have a decent career", as there are no longer any guarantees in the job market. What your degree does get you is the possibility of a better job, as many employers don't even bother to look at the CVs of candidates who haven't been to university.
How easy will it be for me to change my course if it doesn't meet expectations?
Michael Higgs
If you want to change course, it's better to do so sooner rather than later: miss too much of your new subject and you will be asked to start again the following year – which has cost implications. Also remember that popular courses tend to be fully subscribed. If you can find a place, an admissions tutor will want you to explain why you're not going to bail out of this course like you did the first one. So you're going to have to sell yourself hard.
How do I challenge being harshly marked?
Junior Kusi, Guildford
If you believe that a lecturer has marked you unfairly, the first thing you should do is ask him/her to explain why. Transparency is the new norm and many academics live in terror either of being sued by students or hounded by their department for punitive marking that reduces the number of firsts and 2:1s awarded. If you are still not satisfied, go to the head of department and ask to have your work remarked.
Why are science degrees seen as being harder/worth more than arts degrees?
Sarah Head, Nottingham
I've no idea! I guess it's because so many students found science impenetrable at school and have come to think of anyone who understands it as a genius. All of which almost certainly suits those scientists for whom quantum physics is a doddle. What you will find is that science courses tend to have a fuller timetable, so if your version of a hard course is one where you're expected to be at a desk by 9am then science won't be for you. But just because your arts degree isn't so structured with contact time, it doesn't mean you aren't supposed to be working.

looking forward to an update from you guys!
Just got mine back from Kahr - 110 rounds, slide caught one, but could have been me... Looking good for me at this point.
This is a discussion on New Kahr P380- Numerous FTRTB within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Originally Posted by Big Larry I still haven't had time to go shoot the gun after I got it back from Kahr. Hopefully I will ...
The reported changes on my P380, from Kahr:Basically: fresh recoil spring, and polishing.Problem Reported:
- Failure to feed.
- Jams.
- Failure to eject 2 mags.Of course, my description was much more involved, covering many details about the nature of the cycling problems and jams.
Action Taken:
- Replaced recoil spring.
- Polished feed ramp.
- Polished slide stop.
- Polished slide.
- Polished extractor bore.
- Polished ejector.
- Lubricated.
- test-fired good.
I'm not sure how many actual cartridges were test fired, nor which brand/model of cartridge. There is no indication that any changes were made to the magazines, and the mags don't show any polishing or other changes. No parts replaced, so apparently those all showed in-spec, no adverse wear, etc.
So, we'll see how it performs at the range. It would be nice to get it to the point where it'll accept lower-cost "range" rounds, instead of only the expensive stuff. (It's a conspiracy!) Until it's flawless 99 out of 100 for many hundreds of rounds, I am not going to feel comfortable with it. It has simply been too finicky for that.

looking forward to an update from you guys!
Just got mine back from Kahr - 110 rounds, slide caught one, but could have been me... Looking good for me at this point.
Went out and shot it tonight. 220 rounds through it 50 rounds WWB 92 grain, 50 rounds WWB 95 grain, 50 rounds 92 grain Sellier & Bellot, 50 rounds Blazer 95 grain, and 20 rounds 90 grain Hornady CD. Gun functioned 100 times better than it did the first time out. I experienced 2 rounds that FTE, but believe that it was due to me and not the gun. I didn't experience any other problems with the gun at all, and can now say that I have confidence in the gun and it will now be my daily BUG. So overall I'm extremely happy with the gun as well as Kahr's customer service. Now that the gun is performing the way it should, I think my LCP will be finding a new home.
Walk quietly and carry a big stick.
Glad to hear it is performing for you now. Did they tell you what work was performed or did I miss this in the thread somewhere. The P380 concept is a really good one and are worth working thru a few issues in my opinion. Good shooter for sure.
I paid $550 for my P380. It usually sells for $560-$600 in CT
Paid just over $600 for the P380
OUCH!!! I got my sig P238 for 539 out the door. Much nicer pistol.
Kahr..man I want to love them, but its hit or miss with them. Buddy of mine loves his pm9, my cw 40 was so bad it was traded off after 3 trips to kahr.
Current collection: Too many according to the wife...
I sent an email to Kahr to see how I should proceed. I'm sure they'll make everything right. The good thing is that I still have the LCP for a pocket gun in the meantime.
Walk quietly and carry a big stick.
Sorry for your troubles, guys - but I'm unfortunately not surprised.
Given that you can buy 2 LCP's for the price of one P380 - and be 99.5% certain that it will work properly right out of the box - I'm just not seeing the fascination with the P380. Sights, trigger, and locking the slide open when empty do not trump reliability.
How many rounds will you need to fire through these finicky little pistols before you trust them? Will you EVER trust them?
I hope they end up working for you - I really do mean that. It just frosts me that Kahr continues to foist such a high percentage of poorly reliable guns on the consumer. They've been doing this for a long time, and they continue to get away with it. Maybe the only thing keeping them in business is the fact that, for now, their main competition in small, thin pistols is Kel tec and now Taurus - neither well known for reliability either.
Some day, there will be some real competition for Kahr, and they will either get their house in order, or justifiably go under.
OK - sorry - rant off.
The number of people killed because they didn't have "enough gun" is dwarfed by those who had none at all. Get a gun you will always carry, and add more capability as you grow.
The LCP would have been a much better pocket carry for me if it wasn't for the trigger. I absolutely hate it. It's a shame that Ruger can make such a great trigger on the LCR, but simply mimic the same poor trigger as the Kel-Tec for the LCP. I don't care about the horrific sights since I have a Crimson Trace on it.
Funny thing about triggers, grip angles, and such...folks make a big deal out of 'em, but with practice, you should be able to fire any of 'em well. I have my preference (DAO pistol), but I can fire SA, SA/DA, and DAO revolver just fine if I have to.
Reliability, on the other hand, is a must in a defensive gun. The best feeling trigger in the world doesn't mean boo if the gun won't run right.
To each his own, but reliability trumps everything else in a defensive gun. The worst thing is to have those nagging doubts in the back of your mind - kinda like the girlfriend who cheated on you back in the day...you really wanted it to work out, but...
The number of people killed because they didn't have "enough gun" is dwarfed by those who had none at all. Get a gun you will always carry, and add more capability as you grow.
I'm actually bothered more by the fact that the issues just started this week. My LCP had one jam on the third round, but I've ran 200+ rounds through it since then. The P380 had even more rounds through it without a problem. Prior to this week, I would have trusted the P380 more.
If the chamber was accepting all rounds for the past 600, then it's certainly even more able to do so now (given the extra wear). Meaning, throating a tight chamber is almost certainly not going to fix it.
FRB at 600rds is something I'd think would fairly likely be due to:
- Lubrication; or
- Weak recoil springs.
Both of these are relatively simple to check.
What happened with a good cleaning and lube?
Have you tried swapping in a new pair of overlapping recoil springs?
Your best weapon is your brain. Don't leave home without it.

Explain: How does disarming victims reduce the number of victims?
Reason over Force: Why the Gun is Civilization (Marko Kloos).
I'm not sure what else could cause the slide stop to engage early. I'll see what Kahr has to say during business hours.
Today, I fired the P380 pistol for the first time since receiving it back from Kahr. They had it in the shop to attempt correction of bad failures to eject with occasional failures to feed (see above).
Only 36rds fired today. Six rounds from each of six different magazines. Two magazines had one type of ammo used, whereas each of the other four magazines had mixed combinations. The mixed combinations didn't seem to affect things.
- 36 rounds fired (attempted).
- 1 FTC -- failure to chamber, failing to send cartridge up the feed ramp at all. Note that this was the very first cartridge of the very first magazine after having received the pistol back from Kahr's gunsmithing shop.
- 2 rounds LPS -- light primer strike, causing failure to fire. This is a new issue. In 600+ rounds so far, I haven't had any light primer strikes. These two were definitely faint strikes on the primer's surface.
- 3 FTE -- failure to extract, leaving the spent case from the prior shot halfway extracted from the chamber. Each of these occurred on the last round of the magazine, on each of three different magazines.
- 16% failure rate -- 6 problems in 36 round attempted.
This is not nearly enough to draw any conclusions about trends, though I certainly was hoping for a bit better performance. Two-thirds of the magazines experienced a problem, and one in six rounds fired had some problem.
In the next couple of days, I'll send another couple batches of 36rds through. If the basic mix of issues and the failure rate remains much the same, I will contact Kahr again and review the situation for options. I might give it one more shot in the Kahr shop, if that's what it takes, but this P380's time in my stable is quickly running out if it's unable to cease being so problematic.

In the mom-and-pop world of sailing, it's the woman who often expresses little interest in her mate's discovery of the sport. Sometimes, though, the reverse occurs: The mom takes the helm and becomes a better sailor than the pop.
The infinitely small boating-related corner of my inconsequential nautical world in Annapolis survived several hits in 2012.

Anonymous, the secret hacktavist organization has once again resurfaced as it has hacked the US federal sentencing website early Saturday, using the page to make a brazen and boisterous declaration of "war" on the U.S. government.
The group claims mysterious code-based "warheads", named for each of the Supreme Court Justices, are about to be deployed. As of midnight Pacific time, the front page of Ussc.gov — the Federal agency that establishes sentencing policies and practices for the Federal courts — is filled with a long screed in green on black, together with this YouTube video:
All areas of ussc.gov other than the front page appear to be functioning normally. In other words, there's no denial of service attack or widespread vandalism. At the bottom of the page is a series of nine files, mirrored three times. Each file is named for a current U.S. Supreme Court Justice.
The group talks of planting "multiple warheads" on "compromised systems" on various unnamed websites, and encourages members to download a given file from ussc.gov that is "primed, armed and quietly distributed to numerous mirrors." It has given the warhead "launch" the name of "Operation Last Resort," the text said:
There has been a lot of fuss recently in the technological media regarding such operations as Red October, the widespread use of vulnerable browsers and the availability of zero-day exploits for these browsers and their plugins. None of this comes of course as any surprise to us, but it is perhaps good that those within the information security industry are making the extent of these threats more widely understood.
Still there is nothing quite as educational as a well-conducted demonstration…
Through this websites and various others that will remain unnamed, we have been conducting our own infiltration. We did not restrict ourselves like the FBI to one high-profile compromise. We are far more ambitious, and far more capable. Over the last two weeks we have wound down this operation, removed all traces of leakware from the compromised systems, and taken down the injection apparatus used to detect and exploit vulnerable machines.
We have enough fissile material for multiple warheads. Today we are launching the first of these. Operation Last Resort has begun…
Here's the list of files the group is encouraging its followers to download:
What's in the files, and does it have anything to do with the recent "Red October" series of security breaches, thought to be prevalent in China and Russia? Anonymous plays coy:
The contents are various and we won't ruin the speculation by revealing them. Suffice it to say, everyone has secrets, and some things are not meant to be public. At a regular interval commencing today, we will choose one media outlet and supply them with heavily redacted partial contents of the file. Any media outlets wishing to be eligible for this program must include within their reporting a means of secure communications.
We have not taken this action lightly, nor without consideration of the possible consequences. Should we be forced to reveal the trigger-key to this warhead, we understand that there will be collateral damage. We appreciate that many who work within the justice system believe in those principles that it has lost, corrupted, or abandoned, that they do not bear the full responsibility for the damages caused by their occupation.
It is our hope that this warhead need never be detonated.
Leave us your comments…

There is wide-ranging evidence, much of it deriving from economics experiments, of 'anomalies' in behaviour that challenge standard preference theories. This paper explores the implications of these anomalies for preference elicitation methods. Because methods that are used to inform public policy, such as contingent valuation, are based on standard preference theories, their validity may be called into question by the anomaly data. However, on a new interpretation, these anomalies do not contradict standard theory but are errors in stated preference that can be expected to disappear as people become more experienced in relevant decision environments. We explore the evidence for this interpretation and what implications follow for preference elicitation methodology.

The Power of the Middle Ground: A Couple's Guide to Renewing Your Relationship (Paperback)
The Power of the Middle Ground explains–as no other self-help book does–why and how the inherent difficulties entailed in the change process itself are daunting. Author Marty Babits, a seasoned couples therapist and educator, explains strategies and provides tips for grappling successfully with the challenges that change presents. This key aspect of working through relationship difficulties has, until now, been given short shrift in the popular and academic literature. Despite the central place of divorce in our culture, he teaches couples how to achieve a much greater impact in solving difficult interpersonal problems than is often thought possible.
Babits helps couples envision a place that brings their potential for love and compassion alive. This place, which neither partner can dominate and in which each learns to approach problems productively, he calls the "middle ground." Through a series of exercises, he equips couples to appreciate and actualize what is positive and possible in their relationship.
This encouraging, yet realistic book empowers partners to negotiate differences, emphasize the positive, see issues from each other's point of view, defuse anger, and, as a result, rekindle warmth and love.
About the Author
Marty Babits is the Co-Director of FACTS (Family and Couples Treatment Service), a division of the Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy, one of the oldest and most respected training and treatment resources in Manhattan, chartered by the NYS Board of Regents. He teaches and supervises at the Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy and at Hunter School of Social Work and in the Hunter Graduate Program in Mental Health Counseling. As a therapist, he has worked with hundreds of families and couples over the past twenty-five years.

"Sam Wilson" & US Agent Clash as Spencer's "Captain America" Saga Escalates
Comic Books
Ever wonder what comic book creators' workspaces look like? Look no further — For The Bl0g has posted workspace photos from Captain Marvel writer Kelly Sue DeConnick and upcoming Mighty Avengers artist Valerio Schiti that bring a little insight into where the comic book magic happens.
DeConnick's workspace is decorated by numerous pieces of art and Captain Marvel pieces with organizational cabinets and shelves to spare, while Schiti's features a tablet, cube bookshelves and many different Spider-Man pieces all over. It's certainly interesting to see where comic creators work — and even more interesting to see what kind of comics populate their bookshelves.
For the Bl0g also posted a photo of Leinil Yu's workspace, which the artist revealed on his tumblr in 2012.

SDCC: Marvel's "Doctor Strange" Combats "Death and Pain" in New Trailer
Comic Books, Film
Gay-themed graphic novels were recognized during American Library Association's Midwinter Meeting in Philadelphia in a pair of lists for adult and younger readers.
