Re: Gen 5 Glock intitial impressions
I was able to pick up the new G19 Gen 5 today. The ambidextrous slide stop for me was aesthetically off putting and it took a bit to get use to. The coating is a lot darker and you can noticeably tell. I have a Gen 3 G19 and it's my EDC and I love it. So I figured with all the added upgrades to gen 5 why not go for it. The older mags go do fit the gen 5, However the mag plates on the gen 5 are slightly longer to accommodate the half moon cut out of the mag well, I assume it's for a faster reload. I'll be taking to the range this weekend and see how it compares. Can't wait!

Just be advised that pre-Gen4 mags won't work in a Gen4 or 5 gun if you reverse the mag release button for left-handed use.CZp10 wrote:From what I see, all old magazines will work.Jose_in_Dallas wrote:I was all set to buy one of the Summer Special Glock's with the front serrations and then Glock drops these.
Any idea if the magazines are compatible between the generations? I'm going to assume so but I haven't read anything either way.
The problem some are complaining about is that there are a number of new parts in the Gen 5 so you won't be able to just take out parts from past generations and swap them out. Personally I don't have a problem with that, but some people with a lot of older Glocks are bothered by it.

Re: Gen 5 Glock intitial impressions
Have almost 600 rounds through it and really like it a lot. If I have any complaint it's the ambi slide stop lever. It's not flush to the frame like the gen 4 and I have on a few occasions hit it with my support hand and it locked back prior to the last round. I have to be very aware of my grip. I actually ran about 200 rounds with the the gen 4 SLL and gen 4 trigger pin with no issues (The gen 5 trigger pin is different). Not sure I would carry that way as I don't know if that may cause a problem down the road. I would assume in the near future some 3rd party manufacture will come out with a better solution. In the meantime I've adjusted my grip slightly.
Otherwise, I like the feel, it's shoots very accurate, and never thought I'd say this about a stock glock trigger but it's perfect for me as a carry trigger.

My husband and I wanted to share his Eggnog recipe with you. In fact he specifically asked if I would photograph it and share with you. Isn't he cute? Of course I couldn't refuse him. Eggnog is one of the things he loves and really looks forward to every Christmas. Every year he prepares a batch of his family's old traditional eggnog. Though I'm not an eggnog fan I adore watching him in the kitchen and the smell of nutmeg in the air.
Before we get to the recipe there are a few things we need to mention. First is the eggs are raw. Some people don't feel safe consuming raw eggs but it is what he uses. Make sure they are the freshest available. Of course we are not responsible for the eggs you use so it is your call. Next, whole fat milk will yield thicker and better tasting eggnog. Lastly, this is a non-alcoholic version that can easily be made alcoholic. If you'd like feel free to add some Brandy or Rum. Just mix in a cup or as much as you like into the eggnog. Okay let's get to the recipe.
- 12 medium egg yolk
- 11/2 cups (one and a half cups) or 320 g white granulated sugar
- 4 cups or 1 liter of 4% or full fat milk
- 2 cups or 500 ml heavy cream (31% fat or higher)
- 1 tsp ground nutmeg, or adjust to taste
- 1 tsp good quality vanilla extract
- blender
- large bowl
- whisk
- Place the egg yolks and white sugar into the blender. Blend for about 2 minutes or until the mix thickens up. Pour the yolk-sugar mix into a large bowl, whisk in milk and cream. Continue mixing until the sugar has completely dissolved. Sprinkle in the nutmeg and pour in the vanilla, mix until well incorporated. Taste and adjust nutmeg if desired.
- Chill until ready to serve. Sprinkle ground cinnamon over each cup before serving.
In my husband's own word the eggnog tastes "creamy, rich, like Christmas and full of childhood memories."
Christmas is only a few day away and I want to wish each and everyone of you a very happy holiday. May you be surrounded by the ones you love and with plenty of good food. Feliz Navidad, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Effects of Exogenous Bovine Somatotropin on Mammary Function of Late Lactating Crossbred Holstein Cows
Tanwattana, P.; Chanpongsang, S.; Chaiyabutr, N.;
The objective of the present study was to determine the effect of exogenous bovine somatotropin on the mammary function in late lactating crossbred Holstein cows. Twelve 87.5% late lactating Holstein cows, approximately 30 weeks postpartum, were divided into two groups of 6 animals each. Animals in the control group were given sodium bicarbonate buffer by subcutaneous injection, while animals in the treated group were given recombinant bovine somatotropin (bST) by subcutaneous injection with 500 mg of bST (14 day prolonged-release bST). After bST injection, milk yield significantly increased from the control level on day 8 to day 20 (p<0.05) with a concomitant increase in mammary blood flow (p<0.01). An increase in mammary blood flow in response to bST treatment was greater than an increase in milk production. An increased plasma concentration of IGF-I coincided with an increase in mammary blood flow in animals treated with bST. There were no significant changes in the concentration of arterial plasma glucose concentration, the arteriovenous concentration difference (A-V difference) and mammary extraction ratio while the mammary glucose uptake increased when compared to the control group. The concentration of arterial plasma triglyceride decreased throughout the experimental period in animals give bST. The plasma concentration of acetate, and the mammary uptake for acetate significantly increased (p<0.05) after bST treatment. The action of bST did not affect the plasma concentration, A-V difference and extraction ratio across the mammary gland for
-hydroxybutyrate. The concentrations of milk fat and lactose tended to increase during bST treatment. Milk protein concentration initially increased in the first few days and decreased after bST injection when compared to the pretreated period. The present results indicated that bST could affect the mammary function in late lactating cows by increase in milk yield involving changes in both extra-mammary and intra-mammary mechanisms. The exogenous bST exerted its galactopoietic action through an increase in circulating IGF-I of the late lactating Crossbred Holstein cattle.

Imagine yourself awakening in a beautiful coastal home situated in tranquil Deep Cove, a short distance from the village of Chester. This majestic cove on the Aspotogan Peninsula of Nova Scotia was often a haven for sailors seeking shelter from the stormy Atlantic.
Open the double glass doors of your spacious main floor and experience the pleasure of the sea air from the intimacy of your veranda. No dress code required.
This accomodating1 1/2 story, 2 bedroom house offers all the modern amenities you need to relax and indulge yourself. The cozy library and the TV lounge, or anteroom can be easily adapted for additional sleeping quarters. The kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances and all the accoutrements for the gourmet cook or cooks.
Each bedroom has a queen-sized bed. The large master bedroom has an ensuite, with a Jacuzzi bath and separate glass walled shower. The double doors from the master bedroom open to a secluded terrace. The main floor bedroom has a private bath/shower with a separate half-bathroom. The double doors of this bedroom lead out to the patio for the morning sunshine. There is a double futon sofa bed in the library and a king-size bed solution in the anteroom off of the living room. All sleeping areas are fully complimented with sheets, pillows and duvets for your ease and comfort.
Enjoy the view of the cove from your large screened-in veranda, which will shade you, as well as lend you shelter to read and relax at whim. The veranda also allows you to bbq and dine outside in the seaside atmosphere with ease and convenience.
Sail the ocean waters from your shared wharf or relax on the wharf and test your luck at some fishing. Try kayaking around the cove or play in the sand and waves at Bayswater Beach, only five minutes away.
The home is a perfect place to host family or friends for a special occasion. It lends itself to entertaining in an informal but gracious ambience, with the potential to open all the doors and enlarge the space onto the veranda. The vaulted ceilings, original art, and gorgeous fireplace add elegance to the living areas while the marble-topped counters give the open kitchen a hint of glamour.
If the evening is cooler, then the propane fireplace will lend warmth and romance with just the flick of a switch.
From this home you can take day trips to Lunenburg-a UNESCO world heritage site, Mahone Bay-the Home of the Wooden Boats, Halifax-the capital of Nova Scotia, founded in 1749....and this is all less than an hour away.
If you are flying into the Halifax Stanfield International Airport, this home is a 50-55 minute drive towards the coast. It is a 15-minute drive to the quaint and sophisticated village of Chester, which has upscale shops, good restaurants and live theatre throughout the summer. You could hop on the local ferry and enjoy a visit to the islands of Little or Big Tancook. The South Shore area has many pleasures to offer for sightseeing and adventure.
The Anchorage at Deep Cove is a community of individual homes designed by an extraordinary designer/artisan, Rob Parker, who purchased the land on the cove several years ago. He respected the integrity of the anchorage shoreline and he maintained the environmental beauty of the rocky shore.
Recently, an author who was in search of a place for inspiration ensconced herself in the house for a month during the winter season. She credits the peaceful atmosphere and the natural beauty as enabling her successful completion of the book. It was the right place at the 'write' time....her words!

While working and traveling internationally, I always dreamed of returning to Nova Scotia, and to have a place of my own by the ocean. This home in Deep Cove appealed to me because the location was both logistically and physically ideal in any season. One can relax or entertain with ease in a comfortable and cozy environment.
When I stay at Deep Cove I enjoy the natural beauty of the landscape. I love being by the ocean and walking on these incredible shores. Each season offers something uniquely different.
We had a wonderful stay in this seaside home. The house was so comfortable and clean. The kitchen had all the utensils and condiments that one would need. We loved having the screened in porch with a view of the lake. It has a great location within a hours drive of major south shore towns.
Property was great, very clean, well maintained and well equipped. Beds very comfortable. Location very good allowed us to take day trips around the south shore. The Shore Club Lobster dinner was a highlight. We would definitely return and would recommend. Janet was a pleasure to deal with.
No disappointments. Well equipped kitchen. Very clean. Location and outdoor surroundings, secluded but had an airy feeling. Porch was great. 5 star plus! Janet was very easy to communicate with.
We really liked the peaceful area and would be great if you were going to hang out and read a book. The veranda was also very nice for relaxing at night with a glass of wine. It was really a bit too far from Halifax but close to Lunenburg which was very nice to get to see. Overall the home has everything you need to stay for sure.
The house, neighborhood and Deep Cove are very nice. House is well equipped and maintained. The Cove is picturesque and very relaxing. Great screened in porch. The booking and communications with the owner were perfect. This house is located in a small community of similar houses and it is in a rural area. You will need to drive quite a bit to get to things. Halifax is 60kms, Lunenburg is 40+, and the great little village of Chester is about 20 kms away. But it is central to everything on the south west coast. We really enjoyed our stay.
Loved staying in this beautiful home. We used it as a base for our day trips. It was so nice to come home to the covered in porch and continue to enjoy the views Nova Scotia had to offer. Everything you need is provided and the house is more than amazing to stay in. There are many great restaurants and activities within a short distance. Highly recommended!!

ELEANOR FLORENCE RATHBONE, Humanitarian activist (1872 -1946)
Eleanor Rathbone was a truly distinguished woman, born in the late Victorian era when middle-class women had little expectation of, or opportunity to carve a meaningful independent career for themselves. But her philosophy on life, her conscience and her belief in responsible citizenship informed her future, and she determined to devote her working life to championing on behalf of the under-represented in society, regardless of race, religion or gender. What followed is an exemplar of how a resolute individual was able to make a mark on society, often against the tide of opinion and convention.
First, there was Eleanor the pioneering student at Somerville College, Oxford, the active feminist and suffragist who favoured discussion over destruction. Then, in Liverpool, she embarked on a career as a social and welfare investigator and reformer, concerned about issues such as dock labourers, poor housing, women's education, separation allowances and, very significantly, family and child poverty. Those who know anything about Eleanor usually make the connection between her and the family allowance, or child benefit, which she insisted was paid directly to mothers. She was indeed the architect of this benefit, and fought her corner from 1917 until the Family Allowance Act came onto the statute book in 1945.
There was much in between: she was the first woman councillor on Liverpool City Council, a post which she held from 1909 until 1935 and she was a Justice of the Peace. She was actively engaged in national and international politics, was an anti-appeaser and in 1929 was returned as the Independent MP for the Combined English Universities. Parliamentary Questions, deputations, letters, telegrams and telephone calls were all utilised in her energetic campaigns, whether they were on behalf of, for example, child refugees from the Spanish Civil War, child brides in India and Palestine, people being enslaved, or refugees, mostly Jews, and in and from Nazi Europe. Two committees, the Parliamentary Committee on Refugees and the National Committee for Recue from Nazi Terror both reflected her determination to keep this unparalleled humanitarian crisis in the public eye. For this she became known as the MP for Refugees.
Eleanor put all her time and energy into helping those less fortunate than herself, often at great personal cost, especially upon her health. She deserves much greater recognition for her lifetime's devotion to the welfare of others, and that is why we are determined to commemorate and celebrate her contribution to society during 2016, the 70th anniversary of her death in 1946, and beyond, with some tangible memorials.
Fittingly, the first event will be a symposium at Somerville College, Oxford, including a room naming in her honour. From there to Liverpool, London and Leeds with public exhibitions and lectures, and an important conference on the refugee question in London at the start of Refugee Week in June. But more than this, we want to use Eleanor's example to demonstrate the importance of responsible citizenship to today's generation of young people, and for them to be able to make the connection between her campaigning and issues today. To this end there are plans afoot for an oral history project and projects which engage university and senior school pupils in research projects around current affairs with an historical precedent. We are working in partnership with a number of universities, schools and community organisations and have the support from MPs, members of the House of Lords and the Rathbone family. Hopefully, there will be a permanent memorial at Liverpool University's Greenbank House, which was the Rathbone family home.
All of this requires time, effort and, inevitably, money, so PLEASE, help support the Remembering Eleanor Rathbone campaign with your donation, large or small, and join us at some of the events, posted on the blog. http://www.rememberingeleanorrathbone.wordpress.com

Hmmm...I've got one of these and I've never seen it disconnect yet (a few months so far...fingers crossed!). When I've seen USB disconnections with two USB2 Nova-T devices, I was getting things like /dev/dvb/adapter0, /dev/dvb/adapter2, /dev/dvb/adapter3, i.e. adapter1 missing from where one of them had been originally before disconnecting and then being reassigned as adapter3! in this situation, vdr only sees the first DVB device because it starts at adapter0 and stops counting when the next number doesn't exist.
