Sig P365 Review
Harrison December 8, 2020 Reviews Leave a comment
Grip/Ergonomics
Trigger Pull
Overall Ergonomics
Shooting the SIG P365
SIG introduced the SIG P365 in 2018. For a long time, SIG had been having problems competing with Glock on the USA's concealed handgun market. A big reason for this was they did not offer a striker-fired small little firearm to compete with Glock's very popular Glock 43. The Smith and Wesson Shield was also a very popular item at that time.
SIG has a long history of producing small concealed carry style firearms. Originally, it was the SIG P230 and the SIG P232 and 380. Later in the 2000s. they introduced the SIG P290, which was a commercial failure with its double-action only design. The gun had a very heavy trigger pool and the SIG P290 also was double action only with only six-round capacity, which did not make it favorable for the US market.
They introduced the 1911 clones with the SIG P238 and the SIG P938. Both of those guns maintained relative success within their niche, but they were nothing but niche guns without the feature set that the mass market as a whole was looking for.
Seeing this SIG decided to compete with Glock by coming out with something not equal to their Glock 43, but coming out with a handgun that would undoubtedly have features that exceed those offered by the Glock 43. SIG started teasing the SIG P365 a couple days before the release, they didn't tell how small the gun was and nobody could really tell for sure, just based off how it looked.
The initial rumor was it was smaller than the Glock 42. And they didn't give any stats on how much ammo the gun held. So, nobody really knew what to expect. When the gun was finally released, it ended up almost identical in size to the Glock 43 while holding 10 rounds compared to the Glock 43's measly six rounds. Everyone was skeptical. They were skeptical about reliability, they were skeptical about everything. Something like this had never been done before on the gun market.
Nobody had ever seen a gun that held 10 rounds in such a small form factor. People were calling the SIG P365 a unicorn, a magical weapon. And then when they finally hit the streets, there were a lot of initial troubles, I was lucky enough to have one of the first 600 guns introduced. And I unfortunately had a lot of reliability issues with those guns.
Those issues though, began to become fixed pretty quickly, and SIG was ahead of the game. Once people started firing the guns enough to get rounds on them, a new issue developed. And that issue was a broken firing pin. Unfortunately, I was also one of the initial users to have that on the second P365 that I purchased.
All these problems do have an upside though, in further iterations of the SIG P365, SIG made sure that the gun was absolute bomb proof. The striker that is now in the gun is probably one of the best and most durable striker designs on the market and you don't have to worry about it failing. Due to the initial problems they had, they way over built the updated striker.
So, if you buy a brand new SIG P365 at your gun store today, the chances of you having reliability issues are extremely low. And I'll say this as somebody who's had so many problems with the SIG P365 it's hard to trust the gun. That said, you're probably pretty solid buying a brand new SIG P365 out of the box.
That said, I would be wary about buying a used SIG P365 with a lower range serial number. With the SIG P365's high capacity that far exceeded all other options in this size class, the firearm was quick to overcome any stigma that might be replaced with its reliability.
Eventually SIG fixed the reliability issues and the gun didn't suffer the same fate that many other guns have suffered in the past. While the SIG P365 holds high capacity and now is considered reliable, it is still not a perfect handgun. The flaws and the upsides are what we'll cover in this article.
The SIG P365 features a 10 round flush fit capacity. The gun ships with two magazines, one of those magazines has a pinky extension which allows you to get a little more grip on the SIG P365. When the gun was initially introduced, SIG also offered an extended 12-round capacity magazine that had a sleeve on the bottom to offer you a lot more grip on the gun.
A lot of people opt in for this 12 round length as it tends to be more comfortable for people with medium to larger size hands. Now SIG also offers a 15-round extended magazine that includes an ergonomic sleeve on the bottom of the magazine so that it seems like you have one big long pistol grip instead of an extension at the bottom of the magazine.
SIG did a really good job designing these magazines and how they fit in the gun. You wouldn't even know that they're an extension if you just held them in your hand without knowing. One of the downsides to these magazines is they are expensive, usually costing over $40 to purchase.
There are no aftermarket options at this time. There are multiple companies making extensions and accessories for the SIG P365 magazines, so you can look into purchasing those, although I don't think they're necessary with SIG's offerings. SIG really has you covered on what you would want when it comes to purchasing extended magazines for the SIG 365.
While it would be cool to see something like a 30-round extended mag, it's just not practical as the magazines on the SIG P365 are so thin, to get a 30 round capacity or even a 20 round capacity, the magazines would have to be exceedingly long.
Now one thing to take into account with the SIG P365 is it is a very small firearm. For example, half of my bottom pinky hangs off the bottom of the grip and that is only because the gun has a decent undercut. If this gun did not have as good of an undercut, I would likely only have two fingers controlling the firearm instead of two and a half.
The Magwell itself doesn't have any real rounding or flaring to speak of which is not uncommon on a super small concealed carry firearm. With a gun this small every dimension matters and the total width of the grip would have to be much larger to accommodate a flared Magwell.
When trying to drop the magazine, one thing you'll notice is the magazine hangs up and that is because most people's palm will sit under the grip of the SIG P365 itself blocking in the magazine, so you'll have to likely completely break your grip to release the magazine from the SIG P365 and you'll have to do the same when re inserting a new magazine.
If you don't break your grip when reinserting a new magazine, you'll pinch the crap out of your hand between the magazine baseplate and the frame of the gun. Personally, I don't see this as a huge issue considering how small the SIG P365 is. But, it is something you should be aware of.
The SIG P365 does not have any removable back straps or much modularity with the grip itself. Now one thing is the grip module is replaceable. But, the only size grips they offer are the SIG P365 grip module and the SIG P365 XL grip module which is just longer and takes 12-round flush fit magazines.
So, that said, it's not like you have a medium, small and a large like some of their SIG P320 offerings. There's no beavertail to mention, but there is a nice ergonomic tang, which you can get your hand in fairly high, it would help if the grip was a little bit longer, but that would defeat the purpose of the size of this gun.
So, you're going to lose a little bit of ergonomics from the standpoint of getting the most control over the fire impossible, just due to its minute size. Now, if somebody were to have small to maybe medium sized hands and I say medium as a big maybe, this gun will probably fit you perfectly. For larger handed shooters such as myself, you're not going to be able to get as much grip on the gun as you would like.
Texturing on the SIG P365 is really good. It encompasses pretty much the entire grip with little lines in each corner that separate the texturing itself. But, for all intents and purposes the texturing is wrapped 360 degrees. It's just aggressive enough that allows you to get a good hold on the gun.
The texturing is just slick enough that it will not cause chafing when you're carrying the gun in your safety 365 holster right next to your body. Overall the feel of the SIG P365 is really good. There's not anything I can complain about the gun considering the small size, I think most will love the ergonomics of the gun.
There is one downside due to the small size that we'll cover later and there are some guns that do one thing better than the SIG P365 in this size class, but we'll get to that in the next section.
The SIG P365 does come with a pretty decent set of the sights out of the box. The sights it comes with are the SIG Siglite night sights. There are three dot tritium sight and the front tritium site has a green luminescent ring around it while the rear site has a square notch and no painted ring around the rear.
So, it functions as a blacked out sight during the daylight. These aren't my favorite sights, but for a gun like this, they're arguably perfect. I mean the front sight could be a little bit brighter like a yellow Trijicon HD, but they're good enough that I can't see spending 100 to $250 to replace the sights.
Out of the box you really can't ask for more for factory sight options. As of right now there are no factory red dot mounting options but I thoroughly expect SIG to offer something soon for their SIG RomeoZero. SIG does offer the SIG P365 SAS variant that comes with a Meprolight Bullseye sight that is quite different from anything else on the market.
Personally, I don't care for that style of sighting system as it isn't any faster than regular iron sights. While it offers you a much more crude sight picture many say the sight functions similar to a red dot but they are incorrect, as it's not nearly as accurate as a red dot or is easy to pick up.
There are companies that are making aftermarket mounting plates where you can remove the Meprolight sight and then add a RomeoZero using their adapter plate.
On my SIG P365 there are no external safeties, but SIG does offer an ambidextrous thumb safety which is really well designed. It's a little low profile for my taste and personally, I prefer that thumb safeties be large enough that you can ride them like a 1911 style safety when shooting the firearm.
The SIG P365 safety is much more low profile, and it stays out of the way so I would prefer to see a little more meat on that safety. There is no trigger safety on the SIG P365. The gun is deemed drop safe by having a trigger light enough that hopefully it will not continue to fall with the momentum when a gun is dropped.
The mag release on the SIG P365 is reversible. It is not an ambidextrous design, but on a small pistol like this, every millimeter counts. So, making the design just fit on one side I think was a very smart move on SIG's part, you can reverse it to the other side so the left handed shooters will get a similar feeling to a right handed shooter.
That said, you can access the magazine release easily with either your thumb as a right handed shooter, or as a left handed shooter, you can still use your middle finger or even your trigger finger to activate the magazine release if it's mounted on the left hand side.
The slide stop on the SIG P365 is set up for a right handed shooter being on the left hand side of the gun. There is no ambidextrous option and again on a gun this small where every millimeter counts, it keeps the guns profile nice and low.
The slide stop itself is a piece of metal injection molded metal that sits really close into the gun but it has a nice ledge that allows you to get a good purchase on the gun with your thumb when going to drop the slide.
Now that said, if somebody has shorter thumbs, they might have trouble reaching the SIG P365 slide stop. The gun is almost perfect for small handed shooters in every aspect, but this, now for my left hand friends, the slide stop is not so far forward that you'll be able to drop it using your trigger finger.
It's just shy of being that far forward, but unfortunately not quite that far forward. If somebody has really small hands and you're a left handed shooter, you might be able to drop it using your trigger finger but for most shooters, I don't think that would be a reality.
The trigger on the SIG P365 is something that a lot of people will argue about, the original triggers that came with SIG P365 felt absolutely amazing. But, as they fixed a lot of the issues, they felt the trigger also got somewhat worse. That said for a defensive trigger it is the best trigger of the nine millimeter micro nine pistols.
Now for the trigger pull itself when you go to pull the trigger you feel a slight amount of light take-up before you hit a wall. Once you hit that wall, you start to feel a couple of layers of creep before you eventually fill the trigger break in a rolling break. From the reset, it resets to this point of that wall and then you feel that creep again before the trigger breaks.
It's a good rolling break and the trigger is really easy to shoot. I have multiple videos of myself shooting targets at 100 yards. I can't shoot a Glock 19 with iron sights as reliably at 100 yards as I can shoot the SIG P365.
Overall ergonomics on the SIG P365 feel really good in the hand, even as a larger handed shooter minus the issue of the gun just being short, I can't really give it any qualms from a shooting standpoint, at least when I go and pick the gun up off a bench and have time to work it into my hand. Now, drawing from a SIG P365 holster, that's a whole different story.
The distance on the SIG P365 from the back strap to the front strap is much shorter than most of its competitors, like the Glock 43, the Springfield Armory Hellcat, and the Smith and Wesson Shield. What this means is the grip itself seems to be a smaller circumference, so a larger portion of your hand wrapped around the entire grip.
To give you an idea, the tips of my fingers almost touch the palm of my hand when gripping the SIG P365. There are not many guns that I can do that with. Now, the major downside of that is when I go to get a grip on the gun from the holster, my fingers have to travel a lot further going up between my body and the gun itself.
That will mess with your cuticles and just makes drawing the gun somewhat uncomfortable. It also makes getting a good grip on the holster under speed uncomfortable as well. Now what we're talking here is when you're trying to say shave a 10th of a second or less off your draw. But, it's something you should be aware of.
Most people who own the SIG P365 are going to hate me for saying this. But, it's reality. It's faster to draw something like the Glock 43 than it is the SIG P365 and that's just due to the distance from the front strap to the back strap.
And many might disagree but they also have not done so on the timer with paper targets. When they do so with those numbers, they'll probably be surprised to see how well a slightly larger gun will do when drawing from a Sig P365 holster.
One thing I haven't mentioned so far is the slide. The ergonomics of the slide itself are quite good. There's forward serrations and rear serrations that are just sufficiently deep to get a good grip on the gun, but they're not sharp in a way that you feel like you're going to cut yourself.
Really, I think SIG designed the perfect serration depth and aggressiveness for a gun of the size, the forward serrations you could use to fully cycle the slide, but I wouldn't suggest doing so under speed, but they work perfect for something like a press check. They're well positioned so you don't get your hand in front of the muzzle when press jacking, which is a concern on a gun this short.
Maintaining the SIG P365 is really easy. It's similar to the SIG P320. And that you just need to lock back the slide and rotate down the takedown lever 90 degrees before letting the slide come off the gun. It's actually easier to take down because the takedown lever is easier to operate than the SIG P320 takedown lever.
It takes down like any other gun, and it has easy access to the internals, if you want to switch something out. The grip module is not quite as easy to get off as the SIG P320. But, you can still take the grip module off and get into the chassis system without any major issues.
Overall, the SIG P365 is a gun that I would call proportional. The gun looks fantastic. It is perfectly proportioned in all areas, and it looks like a scaled down full size gun. Honestly, it seems a little bit like a toy due to its diminutive size.
The forward and rear serrations add a nice touch of balance along with the chamfered slide. Overall, it's a good looking gun and one of the better looking polymer striker fired guns in my opinion. That said when you put it in your hand, especially if you're a decent size male, the gun is probably going to seem kind of out of place.
Now if you're a smaller handed individual, the gun will probably see more aesthetically pleasing in your hand. But, when I see this gun, I think back to the film Mr. And Mrs. Smith and Angelina Jolie giving Brad Pitt the Smith and Wesson 642 while she took the 1911. It's a girl gun or at least that's what it looks like.
The SIG P365 really does punch above its weight when it comes to the shooting experience. The gun has much less recoil than you would expect for a gun of its size. I find it softer shooting in the Glock 43 and pretty much all other options out there. That said it still doesn't shoot nearly as well as a full size gun, like a SIG P320 X compact or a Glock 19.
Now that is for somebody like me, who has medium to large size hands for a male. If you are a smaller statured man or a female that has smaller hands, then you are much more likely to shoot the SIG P365 better than you would a gun like the Sig P320 X Compact, CZ P-10C, or the FN 509.
The reason for this is you're able to get complete control on a gun like the SIG P365 while somebody with larger hands is having to give up a little bit of real estate that would be nice to have to get proper leverage on the firearm. As I stated earlier, I've hit targets at 100 yards with reliable success using the SIG P365. This is due to the trigger and my good trigger control.
Now I can't do that under speed and up close I shoot a gun like a Glock 19 much better or Sig P320 X Carry but better because I can get a better grip. The trigger on the SIG P365 is superb for accurate shots when you can take your time.
And the sights on the gun aren't half bad. While they're not my favorite, they do perform very well. I think many people would have a hard time justifying spending the money to upgrade them.
There's a reason the SIG P365 is potentially the best selling micro nine on the market. Would it make it into my daily carry? No, the SIG P365 is just too small for my taste, and I find larger guns a little bit more comfortable to carry and easier to shoot. That said, there are some niches where the SIG P365 could fill a role in my carry.
Usually, those roles are filled by even smaller guns in my case(where I'm willing to compromise caliber), but we're all unique and your situation may be different. I think the SIG P365 is a great concealed carry option for the majority of the market. That said I think most people would be better suited with a gun like the Glock 43X, Hellcat, or the SIG P365 XL.
How to Clean Sig P365
It's easy to clean Sig P365. First make sure you gun is empty and there is no magazine or ammunition in the gun. You'll need to rotate the takedown lever 90 degrees and then you can pull off your frame. Once the Sig P365 slide is off the frame you can remove the recoil spring assembly and then the barrel.
Does the Sig P365 have a safety?

The Boss Baby (2017)
"The Boss Baby" stars Alec Baldwin, Miles Christopher Bakshi, Steve Buscemi, Jimmy Kimmel, Lisa Kudrow, and Tobey Maguire. Released on March 31, 2017, the film is about a seven-year old boy who discovers that his new baby brother is a secret agent and gets caught in a secret war between babies and puppies.
The film is directed by Tom McGrath, who also directed the Madagascar trilogy and Megamind. It is loosely based on the 2010 picture book of the same name by Marla Frazee. Remember that moment when your new baby brother or sister is added to the family and gets all of that special attention from your parents? That's pretty much what this movie is like. The only difference is that the baby has the voice of Alec Baldwin. I was quite skeptical on how this will appeal to its target audience, which consists of families and little kids. Then again, they were attached to Rugrats back in the day. So far, the critics haven't given the film as much love as I thought they would have, and Disney is still raking in the families (and the money) thanks to their Beauty and the Beast remake. Maybe this one might get some of the attention from those who have seen Beauty at least four or five times? I attended the Thursday night screening of the film, so if you want to experience it for yourself without looking at my review, I'm cool with that. Otherwise, here you go.
DreamWorks Animation, the studio behind this film, has plenty of ups and downs in terms of their filmography. They made films that are superb and memorable, like Shrek, Kung Fu Panda, and How to Train Your Dragon, and sometimes they made films that didn't quite reach the right level of storytelling, but still provide plenty of fun for their target audience. For this film, however, well…this might be the first DreamWorks Animation film that left me with a mixed feeling, and it's not because of how weird it looks. Before I tell you why, let me explain the things that I did enjoy. Besides the animation (which I will get to in a bit), DreamWorks Animation is known for assembling the most suitable voice cast in order to fit the personalities of the characters, kind of like what Disney did with their characters. This film proves that they still got it. I cannot tell you how much I personally enjoyed Alec Baldwin's portrayal as the title character. He's just that fun to listen to. Miles Bakshi also did a nice job voicing Tim and Tobey Maguire (AKA the original Spider-Man) was a suitable choice to narrate the film. Like the other films from DreamWorks Animation, the animation in this film was vibrant and, in this case, imaginative. I really like how the animation captures how a seven-year old boy sees when he's got so much imagination in his brain. It almost felt like you're a little kid again. So, why does this film left me with a mixed feeling when it's got plenty of good things to enjoy? Well, it's mostly because its diaper was filled with noticeable flaws instead of pure happiness. The story is a very generic and predictable tale that provides themes about family. Sure, there were some other generic animated films that DreamWorks Animation has made, such as Turbo and Home, but those were fun for me to watch despite their genericness. This film, in my point of view, was the opposite of what it's going for. It still had some fun moments for the little ones, but I'm not sure if I can say the same for some of the strict critics. The humor was also a mixed bag. Even though it's not as obnoxious as the other animated films with some bad puns, I still found it to be a bit flat. It's funny in some occasions, but that's about it. There were also some characters that's almost as generic as its storytelling, including the main antagonist. It will be pretty hard for me to remember these characters, except the cast that voiced them. Those I will definitely remember.
Overall, "The Boss Baby" is definitely like having a new baby in the family. It's cute and satisfying, but it can also have its share of problems. While the film does offer a suitable voice cast and its vibrant animation, they weren't enough to cover up its generic storytelling, its predictable plot, and its flawed humor. It's not the best film that DreamWorks has made, but it's not the worst, either. Is it something that I would watch again? Maybe, but not right now. Is it at least better than Rock Dog? Yes, by like a few inches or so. It's watchable for families who already saw Beauty and the Beast a few times. As for everybody else, don't expect this to be the next Shrek or the next How to Train Your Dragon.
I really enjoyed this film despite the generic storyline. Indeed, a passable family flick. Good review, btw.

This reproduction on canvas of Portrait of Joseph Roulin by Vincent van Gogh is made in close cooperation with the Krӧller-Müller Museum, where the original painting is hanging in the Van Gogh Gallery. Joseph Roulin was the postmaster at the station in Arles. Because Van Gogh frequently send paintings to his brother Théo in the Netherlands, he and Joseph became close friends. Vincent describes him as a man who is not bitter, not melancholy, not perfect, not happy and also not always perfectly honest. But he is such a good fellow, so wise, so feeling and so faithful. Vincent painted six portraits of Joseph (Between August 1888 and April 1889), three of which had flowers in the background. In this particular portrait he painted summer flowers.
The poppies, cornflowers, daisies and roses are painted fairly precisely, in contrast to Joseph's face and full beard with the stylized curls. Here, Van Gogh has applied the paint with a quick, flowing brushstroke. Van Gogh, always in need of models, was very happy that Joseph, his wife, and his three children were willing to model for him. He painted more than twenty portraits of the Roulin family.<

Learning management system software (LMS) is an e-Learning software where the learning processes within an institution take place. Used by schools and businesses, LMS software is used to facilitate educational material within the institution as well as hosting employee training sessions where the appropriate tools are provided to manage the learning system of one's institution.
The biggest benefit of using LMS software is that it builds and increases employee engagement. As workplaces are becoming conducted online, it's important to engage with employees, both remote and physical, to boost their productivity. It also provides a great online hub where training can take place for employees to be trained about their tasks. The software also helps employers to monitor their employees' performance through employee monitoring features based on the learnings acquired from the software.
Builds and increase employee engagement
Training can take place in one centralized software
Monitor employees' performance
The most important feature of LMS software is that it should be easy to use for both employees and employers. Having complicated LMS software discourages users to implement an LMS system in the organization. The software should allow employers to create and management of content for employees for the training of their position through content management.
The software also should be accessible for smartphones so that employees can keep track on the go, which means offline functionality should be implemented in the software if possible so that employees can still read educational material related to their job without an internet connection. The software should also provide administrative tools for employers to track their employees' performance based on the LMS system. An effective LMS software would allow integration with third-party services such as Google and Microsoft as these services contain useful tools for workflow management.
Easy to use for everyone in the organization

WASHINGTON – Some Democratic lawmakers have been calling on Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and Attorney General Jeff Sessions to resign over enforcement of the administration's "zero tolerance" policy under which every illegal entrant is prosecuted, action that has led to parents being separated from their children after attempting to cross the border.
"When I look at the totality of these circumstances the answer is an absolute yes, an absolute yes. Maybe they are not suitable for work that requires empathy and sympathy and the heart of the children; they just might not be suitable for this, and if you are not suitable then you ought to remove yourself," Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) told PJM during an interview on Capitol Hill on Wednesday.
Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.) said Trump should fire Sessions and Nielsen or they should resign.
"We should see them resign. I would call on them to resign. I would call on the president to fire them; of course, the president right now is part of the problem," she told PJM.
"The secretary of Homeland Security has lost all morals when it comes to protecting children and enforcing our immigration laws; it is clear the POTUS has whipped her into shape, so she is marred," he said, not directly saying if either cabinet official should resign.
Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) echoed that call to CNN on Wednesday after Trump paused family separations.
"And with today's executive order that reverses this policy, we know that it was all lies. That's why Secretary Nielsen needs to resign. Her credibility has been shredded. I and many other members of Congress no longer have faith in her," he said.
Rep. Steve Womack (R-Ark.) declined to say whether or not Sessions and/or Nielsen should resign over the controversy.
Womack criticized Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) for not supporting permanent legislative solutions to family separation and related immigration issues that have been proposed by the GOP.
"The president alone can fix it," Schumer said of Trump with regard to the zero-tolerance policy.
Homeland Security Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-Texas) was asked if he agreed with the calls for Nielsen and Sessions to resign.
"I don't think anybody likes this. I mean, nobody can look at the pictures and – so we want to fix it," McCaul responded, referring to the separation of parents from children at the border.
PJM asked McCaul what he thinks would be the best way for the U.S. government to confirm that the adults with minors at the border are their parents and not human traffickers.
Schakowsky said the courts should decide if the adult with the child at the border is really their parent or a legal guardian without separation.
PJM asked Green if separating adults and children at the border could be considered a tool to prevent child trafficking.
"You can investigate without terminating relationships, you can investigate, you can have a child temporarily stand over in one place and go in another and you can, with the proper assistance, you can ask questions. But this is not what this is about. This is about taking children away and putting them in cages," he said.


Prepare for the winter party season with Seriously Simple Holidays by Diane Rossen Worthington, featuring recipes like Winter Chopped Salad; Roast Duck Legs with Caramelized Shallots and Garlic; and Savory Bread Pudding with Bacon, Peppers, and Spinach.
In this quintessential Christmas brunch dish, crisp, mahogany-red bacon and red peppers contrast with bright green spinach leaves. The pudding makes breakfast or brunch a one-dish meal, though I like to serve it with a winter fruit platter. Remember to start the recipe two days in advance, as the bread cubes need to dry out and the pudding must set before baking.
1. One day before preparing the pudding, place the bread cubes on a baking sheet and let stand at room temperature overnight, or until the cubes are dried out.
2. The next day, in a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat, turning once, for 5 minutes, or until evenly brown and crisp. Remove to paper towels to drain.
3. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Arrange the cubes in the dish. Scatter the bacon, peppers, and spinach leaves evenly over the cubes. Sprinkle with the 2 cups cheese. With a large spoon, evenly distribute the ingredients.
4. In a large bowl, whisk together or beat with an electric mixer on medium speed the eggs, milk, mustard, and salt and pepper to taste until well blended. Ladle the milk mixture over the bread, using your fingers, if necessary, to press the bread into the liquid. Sprinkle with the 1/4 cup cheese. Cover with aluminum foil and refrigerate overnight.
5. The next morning, remove the baking dish from the refrigerator 1 hour before baking and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until slightly puffed, set, and browned on the top. If the center is still underdone, push the bread down with a wooden spoon to help the bread absorb the liquid. Bake for a few more minutes. Let rest for a few minutes and then cut into squares. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.
Make up to 4 hours ahead, cover, and keep at room temperature. Reheat in a 350 degrees F oven for 15 minutes, if desired.
Substitute 1 cup smoked Gouda for the Cheddar cheese.
Substitute 1/2 pound cooked, thinly sliced sausage for the bacon.
Substitute challah or French bread for the ciabatta.
Add 3/4 cup sautéed mushrooms and caramelized onions instead of the peppers.

These are a glimpse of the 60th filmfare awards!!! My favorites among these are Sraddha Kapoor, Alia Bhat and Kajol!! Which one are yours?? Do reply in the comments section below. Hope you enjoyed reading the post!!!


The class reunion gathering was held on October 23, 2010, at Bonne Soiree in Erath, LA. Because this was not a 5 year or a 10 year reunion, we had our annual class dinner. Our night was a fun night of good food, good friends and fun. Thanks to Jocelyn, we have a lot of pictures to share with everyone. Thanks Jocelyn!
Dale Babineaux and his wife, Marsha came in from Texas and surprised everyone! It was good seeing Dale again; our 10 year class reunion was his last visit with us! I'm sure we all looked a little different to him!
Chris Mayard and Charlene Bourque's husband (Neil ) cooked an awesome chili for the evening. Several finger foods, deserts and corn bread was served.
What an exciting night it was for Charlene Bourque! Chris Mayard sold "An Arm-Length" of tickets for $5.00. Everyone bought tickets that night with the hopes that they would become the 2010 50/50 winner! In total, we sold $260.00 worth of tickets. The Class of 73 bank account kept $130.00 and Charlene went home with her $130.00.
The way this raffle worked, is everyone bought $5.00 worth of tickets at a time. One piece of the ticket was put in the drawing bowl and the other piece of the ticket was given to the class mate. Then the winning number is pulled.
When the winning number was called, Charlene was disappointed because she thought she had lost! She yelled, "I missed it by just 3 numbers.." But then she realized the winning number was on another set of tickets. Boy was she happy! Did you go shopping Charlene?
The "Pretzel & Q-Tip Game" had everyone roaring with laughter! You think it's easy to stick a Q-tip into a pretzel hole when your eyes are on top and you can't see? Well think again.
The object of the game is to pass the preztel to the last person as quickly as possible. You begin by forming 2 teams. Each team is split in half and the team member who passes the pretzel to the last team member…. Wins!
It takes a lot of patience, skill, determination, balance and control to pass the pretzel to the next person. Then it gets worse… The person intercepting the pretzel has to next walk over to the next team member and do it "again" without dropping the preztel. In some instances, guidance was given by the spectators and other team members.
(Sandy's husband), Denette Viator, Evelyn Richard, Ann Derise, Rhonda (Michael Babin's wife), Neil (Charlene Bourque's husband), Ricky Segura, Dale Babineaux and Scott Landry.
Sandy and Benny seem to be VERY involved in passing the preztel for their team and Evelyn and Dale are being VERY CAREFUL! Somehow Charlene and Darcy seem like they are enjoying just playing with the preztel!
By being on the "The Winning Team" you were automatic candidates to a drawing. Teena LeBlanc pulled The Winning Person's name.
It was Ricky Segura. He won 6 tickets to the UL game on November 20th. Go UL!
This game had everyone in stitches they were laughing so much! "Turn Me On with a String"! Boy did this get everyone worked up! The object of the game was to form two teams. There were two very long strings with a weight tied to the end of both strings.
The string was to go under your clothes and down the first persons neck, down the chest and down to your ankles. Then up the next team members neck, chest and ankles and continue on until the last team member. The team whom the weight reached the ankles of the last team member WON!
The Winning Team – Nina (Scott Landry's wife), Fran (Darcy Delcambre's wife, Ann Derise, Benny Migues (Sandy Delcambre's husband) Sammy Delcambre, Ricky Segura, Jim Wiggins (Denette Viator's husband), Lena Dore and Neil Hebert (Charlene Bourque's husband). These team members were eligible for the drawing to win a gift.
Nina Landry "Turn Me On With A String" Winner!
Teena LeBlanc did the honor of pulling a name for a drawing. The names in the hat consisted of everyone present at the party! Sandra Lopez won! She won Halloween and Christmas decorative placques.
There were door prizes, and we played games for prizes, too! We started our night with fun by having a "Count The Corn" contest. The object of the game was to determine how many candy corn was in the jar. Doyle Dooley (Ann Derise's) husband won the price. Doyle's prize was a picture frame and a lamp oil.

Who owns Antarctica?
Year 6 Geography ACHGS041
Year 6 History ACHHK116
Year 6 History ACHHS121
In this learning sequence, students conduct an inquiry into factors or events that have influenced Australia's connection to Antarctica. Discover Australia's involvement in the early exploration of the Antarctic region. Find out which countries have laid claim to Antarctica and what treaty is in place to protect Antarctica. Research the history of Australia's Antarctic bases and their role in scientific study of Antarctica. Use 'what if' scenarios to consider potential threats to Antarctica if the treaty was ignored. Through the inquiry learn about Australia's role in the care and protection of Antarctica and its connection to other countries.
Australia and Antarctica
Pose the enquiry question: What factors or events have influenced Australia's connection to Antarctica?
Prompt student thinking by posing the following questions:
What industries where important to colonial Australia around the 1800s? How were these industries linked to the Antarctic region? What role did they play in the discovery of Antarctica?
How might Hobart's location be important in relation to exploring Antarctica?
When and why did Australia organise its first expedition to Antarctica?
What claim has Australia made on the continent of Antarctica?
What is Australia's current connection with Antarctica?
At this stage, ask students to record their ideas without referring to any reference material. Use this task to access student prior knowledge. Ask students to brainstorm their ideas and record them using a bubble or mind map graphic organiser. Keep their initial brainstorm and use it to compare and reflect on their learning at the end of the sequence of learning.
Early Antarctic explorers
Explain that prior to 1910 much of Antarctica was undiscovered and was mostly unmapped.
View a historical map of the Antarctic land discoveries preceding the year 1910.
Provide a list of Early Antarctic explorers that includes Captain James Weddell, Captain John Davis, Roald Amundsen, Ernest H. Shackleton, Otto Nordenskjöld, Jules-Sebastian Dumont d'Urville, Robert F. Scott and Douglas Mawson.
Ask students to write some key points about what they recall about any of these explorers (without using any reference material).
Organise students to work in collaborative groups to research one explorer. Ask each group to create 2–3 presentation slides to summarise their chosen explorer's contribution to exploration of the Antarctic. Information of interest includes country of origin, historical dates, achievements, challenges and tragedies. Each group presents their slides to the class.
Discuss the influence:
sealing and whaling had on the exploration of Antarctica
these expeditions may have had on developing Australia's connection with Antarctica.
Discuss which countries might 'own' areas of Antarctica. Conduct a straw poll of countries that may have laid claim to Antarctica.
View a blank world map [PDF].
Ask students to suggest reasons why one country may have more of a claim over Antarctica than another.
Explain that Australia is among seven nations which have claimed territory in Antarctica. The other claimant nations are Argentina, Chile, France, New Zealand, Norway and the United Kingdom. Locate these countries on the world map. Discuss what students know about them.
Discuss the proximity of these countries to Antarctica and/or their involvement in Antarctic exploration. On a blank map of Antarctica [PDF] predict the areas these countries may have claimed.
Compare the class prediction to the actual claims. Provide a copy of the map Antarctic territorial claims [PDF].
Provide a copy of the map showing Antarctic wintering stations [PDF].
Ask students to use BOLTS (Border, Orientation, Legend, Title and Scale) mapping conventions to draw a map that shows the territory claims and the site of the scientific research stations. Provide students with a copy of the blank map of Antarctica [PDF]. Note placement of the sites will be highly approximated.
Discuss possible reasons for the location of the research stations.
History of Australian stations
Australia has three scientific stations in Antarctica: Mawson, Casey and Davis. Macquarie Island is a sub-Antarctic station.
Ask students to research the history of Mawson, Casey, Davis and Macquarie Island stations. Provide students access to the website section Australian Antarctic stations.
Organise students in collaborative groups to research one station in detail. Develop a list of agreed categories on which to report for example:
naming of the station
first discovery
date of building
important people
reason for setting up the station
Australia's involvement
other countries' involvement.
Agree on a suitable format to present their findings back to the class.
Explain that activities in Antarctica and its surrounding seas are governed by a unique agreement between nations: The Antarctic Treaty. Signed in 1959 it was designed to provide an agreement for the future care and use of Antarctica, as well as avoid territorial and other disputes.
View the video on this page, about the Madrid Protocol, which was signed in 1991 and is the framework for protecting the Antarctic environment.
For background information, refer to the Antarctic Treaty System.
Ask students to describe Australia's role and responsibilities as one of the Antarctic Treaty parties.
Is Antarctica in safe hands?
Pose the question: 'Is Antarctica in safe hands?'
Ask students in pairs to consider the information they have gained so far in their inquiry. Do they think Antarctica is being managed well or is there cause for concern? To support their claims record a list of positives and negatives as a way to correlate their understandings.
Allow students to conduct further research to answer the question. Encourage them to list any questions that have arisen but are yet to be answered.
Ask students to consider conservation of wildlife, protection of the environment, threats and challenges facing Antarctica and what is currently being done.
Encourage students to support any claims they have with evidence.
Discuss the role Australia has played so far in the care and protection of Antarctica. Refer to the videos on the following web pages:
Action stations: Australian activity in Antarctica
Australian to lead Antarctic Environment Protection body
East Antarctic Marine Protected Areas
Evaluate and apply
Threats to Antarctica
The long term survival of wildlife in Antarctica is threatened by human activity.
Brainstorm potential threats such as:
over fishing or commercial fishing related disturbances
habitat degradation
environmental changes that affect feeding grounds
increased tourism in the Antarctic region.
Challenge the students to consider a 'what if' scenario to consider the potential impact of human activity on the Antarctic environment and wildlife.
Consider what would happen if the treaty that promotes care and protection of the Antarctic were to be ignored by certain countries. Think about the impact of illegal fishing or illegal whaling, sealing or harvesting penguins for oil. How might it affect the health of these populations? How might it also affect other species? What about a rise in tourism to isolated areas that have fragile ecosystems? What would happen if accommodation was built in Antarctica to address the increased demand for tourism?
Ask students in pairs to choose an issue to investigate further. Choose a 'what if' scenario to explain the effects of not managing this type of issue.
Relevant sections of the AAD website include:
Southern Ocean fisheries
After students have presented their 'what if' scenarios discuss the value of the Antarctic Treaty.
Australia's role in Antarctica
Revisit the inquiry question: What factors or events have influenced Australia's connection to Antarctica?
Provide the opportunity for students to review and update their initial brainstorm of ideas. Ask them to write new information in a different colour to distinguish new ideas from initial ideas. Support students to reflect on their learning and identify some key understandings.
Use their updated bubble or mind map to create a poster or slide presentation about what Antarctica means to Australia and describe Australia's involvement in Antarctica. In their presentation students should include:
an historical perspective
Australia's connection with other countries
Australia's claim to Antarctica
agreements and treaties
current and future issues.
Share completed presentations with the class.
Unclaimed Antarctica
Present the hypothetical scenario that a country is making a claim for the portion of unclaimed Antarctica. Refer again to the map of National claims to Antarctic Territory [PDF]. Identify the portion that is unclaimed.
As a class estimate the percentage portion to which each country has laid claim. This can be approximate and take into consideration that some areas overlap. Discuss that regardless of claim size, each country has equal voting power and decision making, and that some countries do not recognise others' claims.
Have students research the treaty partners. In collaborative groups they select a treaty partner that does not have a claim on Antarctica, and then develop a proposal for their slice of Antarctica. In their proposal they should include:
a justification for their claim
a description of what they will do with the area
how they would work with the seven other countries who already have a claim.
Share the ideas and look at which countries were selected and why.
Discuss what would happen if a country did lay claim to this area and then began mining or drilling for oil and gas. How might this be resolved? Is it a possibility? How might the Antarctic Treaty or other agreements be used to work through a solution?
identify and describe the achievements of an early Antarctic explorer
use mapping conventions to create and interpret maps
describes connections Australia has with Antarctica
explain the value of the Antarctic Treaty.
