"An armed society is a polite society.. and this is the Polite Society Podcast where we support and report on civilian self-defense."
Rachel: Welcome to the polite society podcast presented by the Firearms Policy Coalition recorded live on Wednesday, February 18th, 2015. I'm Rachel Malone.
Rob: I'm Rob Morse, and we'll talk with Alexander Roubian of NJ2AS, and Richard Smith from the SAF training division, and Dean Weingarten from the Gun Watch blog.
Rachel- and we'll also talk with Sandra Muldoon and Shari Spivack of Second Amendment Women.
Rob- did I tell you about anti-gun celebrities being caught illegally carrying handguns? We have that and a lot more,
Rachel- so climb aboard
Rob- strap in
Rachel- and hang on! Episode 312 of the Polite Society Podcast starts right now.
Show intro music.
Seg 1- Personal news from each participant
Rob- lead in This is the personal news segment of the polite society podcast. John is off supervising the birth of a grandchild, so we have Rachel and I to hold down the podcast today. Rachel, How is your gun world? Have you caught up on sleep after living in the Texas Senate building last week?
Rachel- I have caught up on sleep…just in time for the start of Jordan's spring football. 😉 It's all good. Nothing strictly with guns this past week…I need to change that…but if you can expand that to general preparedness, I do have news. Jordan and I are setting up a home gym and I found a bunch of great stuff off of Craigslist. Very excited about that.
As a follow-up to last week's committee hearing – the witness list was posted today. I've been looking forward to perusing it and learning what I can. Here's what we've found after a quick reading this afternoon:
77% of those "against" came from Austin, TX; 23% came from elsewhere.
21% of those "for" or "on" came from Austin, TX; 79% came from elsewhere.
78% of those "against" only dropped a registration card.
35% of those "for" or "on" only dropped a registration card.
Rob- The local city planning commission is using lame excuses to refuse a gun range the building permits it needs. I spoke about it at a local political meeting and asked the audience to go to the planning commission meeting that is happening right now. They reminded me of the ATF. The ATF said cheap 223 ammunition has no sporting purpose. Scuse me? What else are you going to do with cheap ammo but shoot it for sport? The local planning commission said the range was not for recreation. What they meant to say is we don't like your kind around here.

Rachel gives us the news
-David Malik is a leading civil rights attorney in Cleveland, Ohio. He also doesn't want you owning guns. Mister Malik was arrested over the weekend at Cleveland Hopkins Airport. Malik had a concealed handgun in his carry-on bag. David Malik is the original attorney for the family of 12-year-old Tamir Rice who was slain by police in November. Attorney Malik spent the night in jail after a .22 caliber handgun and a box of ammunition were discovered in his luggage by airport security.
It is common for anti-gun celebrities to carry firearms. Dwayne Ferguson was a community activist and a vocal supporter of the New York SAFE act.. until he was arrested for illegally bringing a pistol onto school grounds in Buffalo, New York.
Illinois state senator Donne Trotter was charged with a felony for bringing a loaded handgun through the security checkpoint at O'Hare airport. Democrat Trotter was running to replace Jesse Jackson Jr. in Congress at the time. This happened before the courts brought concealed carry to Illinois. Trotter routinely voted to kill concealed carry bills in the Illinois Senate.
More serious was the example set by California State Senator Leland Yee. Senator Yee both proposed and supported strict gun control.. for California citizens. That was before his arrest on political corruption, racketeering and gun trafficking charges. Yee wanted to sell rocket propelled grenades to criminals.
Retired Chicago Alderman Richard Mell is the father-in-law of disgraced former governor and felon Rod Blagojevich. Alderman Mell helped craft Chicago's old ban on handguns. Alderman Mell also used his political connections to rewrite the registration law and create an "amnesty" period after he'd neglected to do the paperwork needed to keep his firearms.
And the late Frank Melton, former mayor of Jackson, Miss., routinely violated "gun laws" .. the same laws he demanded everyone else to obey.
There is a troubling double standard in the case of Democrat Texas State Sen. Juan "Chuy" Hinojosa. The senator brought his own gun into an airport security area.. and didn't even have to stand for arraignment.
Rob- Michael Moore's bodyguard was charged for carrying a gun in a gun free zone. Last week, the Bloomberg group Moms demand action for gun safety hired armed bodyguards, and used the armed guards to push around unarmed civilians when they testified at the Texas capital. There are rules for us, and special rules for gun-control spokesmen and politicians.
Rachel-You remember what firearms instructor Bob Main says. "I carry a gun because I can't carry a cop." Even if we could have a policeman at our shoulder, we might want to leave them at the police station. We've all seen the social media posts about police using unnecessary force. Partial data indicates that police are convicted of firearms violations much more often than concealed carry holders. We don't have the complete data across the US for concealed carry holders, but the data we have for Florida says that the police were over 20 times more likely to be charged with a firearms violation than civilians.
Rob- Some factors explain the high rate of violations by law enforcement. Each policeman sees more violent incidents than the average civilian. Also, a civilian will often bring charges against an officer if the officer misuses a gun. The concealed carry holder knows who belongs in his living room in the middle of the night.. and the policeman doesn't.
There are other factors that work against the concealed carry holder. Each criminal on the street will assault many civilians before the criminal is finally arrested by a policeman. Also, many jurisdictions ignore behavior by police where that same behavior by a civilian would result in prosecution.
Rob- we have dean Dean Weingarten here to make sense of this subject. Gun Watch blog, and it has a lot of news. "For the data that we have, police appear to be three times as likely to commit murder as a concealed carry permit holder." Dean interview.
Dean Weingarten, welcome.
How did you get interested in this subject.
I've been an instructor for 40 years. My students are extraordinarily responsible.
How do concealed carry holders compare to law enforcement officers.
Who records when an officer is arrested?
Not the FBI. The FBI doesn't even collect the justifiable homicides.
Domestic violence by police is closely tracked.
Who did you compare.
What did you find.
Police are 1.4/100k vs Florida is a third of that number.
police 4-5 times more likely than CCW
CCW 9 times more law abiding than general public.

Rachel- Frequent listeners should remember hearing the young man from New Jersey. Steffon Josey asked for an appeal, and an appeal was granted. He and Evan Nappen will be in court soon! They will have a date will be released in a few days. This poor kid needs some cash to earn his freedom. Please donate to his go-fund-me account. Throw in something even if it is only $5.
-The ATF claimed it does not need to publish its new rules in the Federal Register as it re-interprets the meaning of "armor piercing ammunition to outlaw surplus 223 ammo. The ATF claims the reinterpretation is exempt from the Federal Administrative Procedures Act. President Obama claimed the same thing when he re-wrote immigration law with his phone and his pen.
-Legislation to require more background checks on gun sales in Vermont has hit a major snag. Anti-rights advocates lobbied lawmakers to require background checks for sales of firearms at gun shows and over the internet. The legislation even made it into committee. Senator Dick Sears of Bennington is the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. Senator Sears said quote "I don't believe the background check portion of the bill has the votes to pass out of –committee." close quote. Most legislators do their homework and count votes before they propose legislation.
Moms Demand Action has been caught lying…again. Only this time, the untruth occurred in a committee hearing of the Texas Senate. Kelly Burke is the president of the Texas MDA chapter. While testifying against the open carry and campus carry bills last week, Ms. Burke claimed, (quote) "we do not know, about how, quote, responsible CHL holders are, because that data set is not available and is completely locked down. Any statements about how, quote, responsible and law-abiding CHL holders are is completely anecdotal and therefore conjecture." (close quote) If she'd only searched Google, she could have easily found this data. It's public record and is made available by the TXDPS.
-Texas open carry activists were rewarded again this week for their diligent efforts. Texas Governor Greg Abbott delivered a "state of the state" address Tuesday morning in which he laid out his top priorities for the state. Open carry made the cut. Abbott stated, (quote) "Let me briefly follow up on a word I mentioned a moment ago — liberty. In a single word, it encapsulates what this country stands for, what Texas symbolizes. I will expand liberty in Texas by signing a law that makes Texas the 45th state to allow open carry." (close quote)
-Here are two conflicting ideas. Some studies report high rates of sexual assault. Women's advocates say women are at great risk on college campuses. Contrast that claim with the fact that many college administrators want to deny women the right to carry concealed on campus. These administrators ignore that concealed carry holders are usually 21 years of age or older. Concealed carry holders already have a license to carry across the state, but must disarm on campus. In this age of diversity, the student body is more diverse than ever. We already have returning veterans and delayed entry students on campus. College students are not the drunken idiots shown in animal house. They never were. Students make adult decisions without parental supervision. Lawmakers in 10 states are pushing bills that would permit the carrying of firearms on campus. They hope the national spotlight on sexual assault will help them win passage of their measures. Quote "If you've got a person that's raped because you wouldn't let them carry a firearm to defend themselves, I think you're responsible," State Representative Dennis K. Baxley of Florida said during debate in a House subcommittee last month. The bill passed out of committee.
Bills that would allow guns on campus have been introduced in Indiana, Montana, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Florida and Nevada and Wyoming.
Rob- I have the gun quote today, and this is one might surprise you. "Fighting corruption is not just good governance. It's self-defense. It's patriotism." That was from vice president Joe Biden. I wonder if he meant the New York SAFE act and San Antonio knife laws when he talked about government corruption. Hang on everybody we have our interview segment next.

Segment 4 DGUs
Rob- A man's dog woke him up just at sunrise in Edmond Oklahoma. Then the 46 year old homeowner heard someone beating on his front door. The masked intruder smashed his way in carrying a baseball bat. He hit the homeowner in the hand. The homeowner ran to his kitchen and grabbed his handgun. He shot the intruder in the face, neck and arm. The intruder then ran across the street to his girlfriend's apartment. She called 911, to get him medical attention. The burglar is expected to survive.
The intruder was the homeowners former step-son. The step-son is charged with first-degree burglary and assault with a dangerous weapon.
Rachel- Does a woman home alone stand a chance against four home intruders? She does if she has a gun. An Alabama woman refused entrance to a group of four who knocked on her door and asked to use her phone Monday afternoon. They left, but returned later that night. They forced their way inside. The homeowner pulled out her gun and fired. One invader, Richard Taylor, died of multiple gunshot wounds. The three accomplices survived, but are now being charged with Taylor's murder. The homeowner is not expected to face charges.

Rob This note came from Ken in Arizona. He said
This quote from Mahatma Gandhi struck me as one that's appropriate for our gun rights. Quote "First they ignore you. Then, they laugh at you. Then, they fight you. Then, you win." Close quote
Ken continues- They are currently fighting us with everything they have. We are only one step away from winning!

Paul: Because episode 311 of the Polite Society Podcast starts right now.
Paul- Back at ABN for the first time in quite a while. No longer doing the Baltimore run. Bought my wife a really cool Valentines day gift.
John – My new Kydex holster has arrived for my Ruger LC9s and it fits the pistol very well. I've worn it around the house and you forget that you are carrying. Other than that, no new gun news. We are still on grandbaby watch and it could be this week as the official due date is the 19th.
Gary – My Glock 30 is now my official back up gun, it fed 3 boxes of Ranger T without a jam. I'm still using my Colt 1911 because my FFL who is also a leathersmith is supposed to be making a double, double stack mag pouch for the Para, which is also feeding the Ranger T without a hitch. I had a couple of conversations with former students about disparity of force and AOJ, please take a moment and review these with your instructors. We actually have it easier to appear at house of rep committee meetings here in Illinois than in Texas. Rachel had to drive to the meeting, I filed my appearance and opinion from my home office.
Rachel- Thursday's Senate hearing on gun bills was my big activity this week – I did a special segment with Paul on that that's being included in Episode 310. Friday and Saturday was follow-up with my activists and some recovery downtime with a friend. And trying to catch up after several near all-nighters this past week.
Rob- Shot IDPA yesterday. I learned a lot by slowing down a little.
I'll miss testimony for a local gun range before the city council because of the Wednesday podcast.
(Weekend shows only) I am going to insert a live promo about upcoming training classes in Sioux Falls here.
–BATFE released a proposed ruling this week that would reclassify one of the most common AR-15 5.56 rounds as "armor piercing". Specifically, they said the exemption from the pistol armor piercing list of the SS109/M855 bullet would be rescinded. This is the bullet that is commonly found in surplus 5.56 or .223 ammo. BATFE says the steel and lead core combo makes it armor piercing. They also say this bullet has no "sporting purpose". People have until March 16th to submit comments on this proposal.
John – Comment – I see this as a parting gift to Attorney General Eric Holder who said his one failure was the failure to pass gun control.
Rob- I remember a poster by Oleg Volk. There is no "right size" when it comes to gun grabbers and firearms. Guns are always too large or too small, too accurate or too inaccurate, too cheap or too expensive, too loud or too quiet. There is no right size when it comes to firearms, and the 223 is no exception.
Where is the outrage that my police are carrying ammunition that is so lethal it will penetrate body armor?
–A campus carry bill was introduced into the Nevada House by Rep. Michelle Fiore (R-Las Vegas). The bill would allow those with carry permits to legally carry in buildings on Nevada public higher education campuses, to carry in the unsecured areas of airports, and to carry in public buildings with some exceptions. Rep. Fiore calls this bill "Amanda's Law" after Amanda Collins. With Republicans in charge of both houses of the Nevada legislature, Fiore is confident that this third attempt to pass a campus carry bill will be successful.
Comment – Rob and I saw Amanda Collins discuss her rape in the film "Safe Havens". It was very powerful stuff.
Rob Comment- The presidents of the Florida state universities opposed concealed carry on campus in Florida. To our Florida listeners, you trusted these university officials to educate your children.
Rachel comment- the Austin police chief doesn't think campus carry is the best option. He prefers to offer victim counseling after rapes rahter than give victims a fighting chance.
-When Illinois passed its concealed carry law two years ago, one of the places that was made off-limits for legal carry were the Cook County forest preserves. Now two Downtstate legislators have introduced a bill to allow legal carry in forest preserves. Rep. Kyle McCarter of Lebanon said, "Allowing those who the state has trained to carry a gun will only provide safety." The Chicago Sun-Times in an editorial takes issue with that and tries to bolster their argument with a spurious report from the Violence Policy Center that "counted" 722 deaths nationwide since 2007 by concealed carry holders.
Rob comment- do I have to pay taxes for a park or place where my rights are denied.
rolling rolling rolling.. keep that podcast rolling. Rawhide.
-Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) and Rep. Marlin Stutzman (R-IN) have introduced bills Thursday in their respective houses of Congress entitled, "The Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2015." This bill would treat state-issued concealed-carry permits like drivers' licenses, allowing law-abiding citizens with concealed carry privileges to concealed-carry in any other states that also permit it by law. The bill has bipartisan sponsorship and has the strong support of the NRA. Stutzman said, ""Americans enjoy a natural right to self-defense preserved by the Second Amendment. This federally guaranteed liberty should not be forfeited when state lines are crossed."
Rob- I couldn't find the house version of the bill yet. See PopVox.com https://www.popvox.com/bills/us/114/hr923
https://www.popvox.com/bills/us/114/s498
John – HR 923.
–The New Hampshire State Senate voted 14-9 to approve constitutional carry of concealed firearms in the state. The bill was sponsored by Sen. Majority Leader Jeb Bradley. As Sen. Sharon Carson said, "This bill recognizes that the simple act of putting on a coat should not require a permit." New Hampshire already recognizes unlicensed open carry. Senate Democrats argued that the bill will increase the number of deadly arguments. The bill now goes to the New Hampshire House for their approval.
Comment – I guess the New Hampshire Senate Democrats have never heard of an armed society being a polite society.
Rachel comment- So New Hampshire's Senate thinks this is fine, but Texas' Lt. Gov. Patrick doesn't think it should even get a hearing. What's wrong with this picture?
-We've reported on Operation Choke Point in past episodes. On Thursday, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) introduced a bill that would "defund, in perpetuity, "Operation Choke Point or any other program designed to discourage the provision or continuation of credit or the processing of payments by financial institutions for dealers and manufacturers of firearms and ammunition." The bill is called "Firearms Manufacturers and Dealers Protection Act of 2015. Sen. Rubio's bill would complement legislation introduced earlier in the month by Rep. Blaine Luetkmeyer of Missouri.
-We have reported many times on how New Jersey law has ensnared innocent victims. We have interviewed both Brian Aitken and Steffon Josey-Davis on this show. The latest victim is retired school teacher Van Gilder. Mr. Gilder was arrested for the mere possession of an unloaded 300-year-old "Queen Anne" single-shot flintlock. He has been charged with a Second Degree Felony of Criminal Possession of a Handgun which can carry a 10-year sentence. Mr. Gilder has been an antiques collector for years. Under Federal law, this single-shot flintlock pistol can be bought and sold by anyone. No license is required, it can be shipped through the mails, etc. A legal defense fund has been set up for Mr. Gilder and we would encourage you to be generous.
Rob- Can he register this firearm?
-In Connecticut, the 16-member Sandy Hook Advisory Commission issued its report with a number of recommendations. Their want to prohibit the sale and possession of any firearm capable of holding 10 rounds or more. There was no provision to grandfather in existing firearms. They recommended that any shell casing for ammunition sold in Connecticut have a unique serial number etched on it, and that each casing should be registered and traced. Also, all firearms would be registered and ammunition buyers would be restricted to only the caliber chambered for their licensed guns. Those who have firearms licenses, stresses the report, should at every renewal pass a test of firearms handling capacity as well as an understanding of state and local laws.
Rob- That sounds like a semi-auto ban.. and a bolt action ban, since most could accept a mag over 19 rounds. That means they would need a department in Connecticut like their DMV where a firearms owner would be tested every year.
-In Denmark, only licensed gun owners may possess firearm or ammunition. License applicants must establish what the authorities consider a "genuine" reason to possess a firearm. Those laws didn't prevent deadly shootings in Denmark Saturday. A man killed a victim and injured three police officers at a free speech debate in a cafe. The gunman then proceeded to the city's main synagogue, where he killed a Jewish man and wounded two police officers. Police tracked down the gunman and shot him Sunday morning. Investigators believe the attacks may have been inspired by the Paris shootings.
Gun Quotes- I strongly believe that the Second Amendment creates an individual right to possess and use guns for purposes of both hunting and self-defense. That quote was by democrat legal scholar -Cass Sunstein.
Gary- I have a problem with this quote.
Hang on everybody, we'll be back with our defensive gun use segment.
–A Kalamazoo County, Michigan man awoke around 11pm Saturday night to loud knocking on his door. As he went to check it out, one of the two men outside broke a window on the side of his house. The homeowner shot the man as the home invader entered the house and his accomplice took off. Police arrested the accomplice nearby and took the wounded home invader to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
–A San Antonio, Texas homeowner was uninjured this morning after exchanging gunfire with a home invader. The home invader, however, was shot in the stomach and was taken to San Antonio Military Medical Center. The Bexar County Sheriff's Department said the home invasion suspect will be charged with burglary when he recovers. They said they don't expect any charges to be filed against the homeowner.
-Normally, one does not think of heavy snow as being of an assist to law enforcement. However, a combination of an armed homeowner and deep snow allowed Springfield, Massachusetts police quickly to arrest brothers Jordan and Jovan Eady. They had broken into a house and threatened "to light the house up" last Saturday night. The homeowner was armed with a legally registered firearm and he shot Jordan in the arm. The Eady brothers were captured by Springfield Police after they ran from the home. The reason they were running and not driving is that their 2014 Chrysler 200 had gotten stuck in a snowbank. Police investigators said the homeowner had acted in self-defense of himself and his family and no charges would be brought against him. A followup story said both the brothers Eady were charged with burglary and malicious damage and released on bail. Their attorney said it was all a mistake and they had been drinking.
Segment 5 Show close
Listener Voice Mail from Greg in Bremmerton
Listener voice mail from Greg in Cincinatti.
John do you want to mention anything off of your blog you would like to talk about?
We talk a lot about gun rights and politics on this show. Rarely do we address the history of older firearms. Some of these guns are absolute works of art. The late gun writer and firearms innovator Elmer Keith had an incredible collection of firearms. I did a story on Wednesday about the auction of his collection. Elmer passed away in 2003 and his family is now auctioning the collection. The post has many pictures of these guns.
Paul: That wraps up another episode of the Polite Society Podcast. I'd like to thank (Guests) for joining us today. co-hosts, will you be with us next time? I'm looking forward to it. Until the next time…
John: and we'll see you down the road.

CRISPR or Not, You Can't Genetically Enhance Humans, Says Sci-Fi Author Kim Stanley Robinson
Kim Stanley Robinson 2018 Show.mp3
Kim Stanley Robinson, Sci-Fi Author Bio and Contact Info
00:00 The tweet: It's like science fiction
07:26 Enhancements not practical
13:02 What about clones?
20:10 Playing out the utopian and dystopian possibilities
27:50 Red Moon: The last stone unturned
Designer babies. The term means many things to many people. To some it means kids only dressed in Gucci.
Some say that by doing pre-implantation genetic screening, we are already living in the age of designer babies. Others have been holding out for that time when humans edit their own germline offering the new progeny not only disease repair, but also enhancements. It's also argued there's a third category in the middle there somewhere, a protection against disease in the future. That's what He Jiankui attempted.
We don't know yet if Jiankui was successful. But we know that if he wasn't, he showed us that the next success is just around the corner. And the next.
"This story is getting more sci-fi every minute. Michael Crichton couldn't have made this stuff up," tweeted Eric Topol of the Scripps Institute as the He Jiankui saga unfolded.
"That tweet is in many ways wrong. Science fiction of course can imagine it. Michael Crichton could and did make it up. But other science fiction writers who are more skillful than Michael Crichton have been talking about messing with germline for a long time now."
That's today's guest, award winning sci-fi author Kim Stanley Robinson (The Mars Trilogy, Red Moon) at the outset of today's show. What sets Stan (as he's called) apart from many of those other sci-fi writers, is that he doesn't think it practical to enhance humans genetically. He's thought about it his entire career, and like going faster than the speed of light, it's one of those impractical barriers, he says.

Well, either he has some mighty big convincing to do, or this was the biggest bomb of an interview ever. I mean, come on, of course humans can be enhanced.

Standards version switches in the compiler
Shareable link: https://aka.ms/versionswitches Official documentation on docs.microsoft.com.
This blog post written by Gabriel Dos Reis, Ulzii Luvsanbat, and Andrew Pardoe.
In Visual C++ 2015 Update 3 we are introducing tools to help you control the version of the ISO C++ programming language you depend on and the version you want VC++ to enforce in your projects. We're creating a series of new switches that correspond to versions of the C++ language, starting with /std:c++14 and /std:c++latest.
Why add these switches?
Traditionally, we would release the compiler in a default mode that combines features striding several versions of the C++ language, e.g. C++98, C++03, C++11, C++14, etc. in addition to conformance improvement bug fixes. This can lead to situations where it is difficult to simultaneously upgrade to the newer and better compiler and at the same time move your code forward. We really appreciate the great feedback you've given us about our conformance improvements and new feature work. As the C++ standards committee is gearing up for a new C++ version, we've taken the initiative to help you state in your build systems or compiler command lines which version of C++ you are comfortable with while updating to the next version of Visual C++.
Visual C++ has made significant progress towards C++ standards conformance between the first release of Visual Studio 2015 and VS 2015 Update 3. We've fixed many issues with constexpr, improved expression SFINAE support, evaluation of initializer lists, variable templates, and more. Our standard library implementation has kept pace with features adopted into the post-C++14 standard draft. And we've implemented some major features currently under consideration by the committee, including C++ modules and coroutines. We want you to benefit from all this, but also we want you to consume these features at your own pace, while upgrading to this new update.
All post-C++14 features implemented in this update are off by default; those which were included in previous releases are left on to avoid causing your builds.
Switches for language versions
We want to help you keep your compiler toolchains up to date with the newest versions of Visual Studio. To help you stay current without requiring you to immediately move your code to the latest C++ standards we're introducing a series of switches that allow you to opt-in to versions of the C++ standard. As we're starting with VS 2015 Update 3, the first switch in the series will be /std:c++14, reflecting the state of the Visual C++ compiler today. We also introduce a /std:c++latest switch that will reflect compiler and library work proposed in the current standard draft. Note that similar switches are available in other compilers, including GCC and Clang.
The switches enable new features from each C++ Standard, or any behavior breaking changes on existing features. They are not meant to track MSVC-specific conformance bugs. Bug fixes will continue to happen independently of language version switches. If a bug fix prompts source code changes to be more standards conformant, the compiler will provide well-defined diagnostic messages. And we'll continue to keep an extremely high bar for bug fixes that require source code changes, and we'll continue to document each fix and its impact (this page lists the existing compiler conformance improvements documentation for VS 2015.)
/std:c++14
The /std:c++14 switch enables the set of C++14 features implemented by the Visual C++ compiler, modulo conformance bug fixes and ongoing feature work (such as for constexpr, expression SFINAE, 2-phase name lookup, etc.) Using the /std:c++14 switch will always instruct Visual C++ to compile your code according to the C++14 standards and associated Defect Reports. This is the default language version in this update.
Each version of the C++ Standard generally builds upon previous versions, except when they don't. Consequently, each language version (for versions after C++14, because we are starting with /std:c++14) will select C++14 semantics in addition to any other requirements (including feature modification or removal) instructed by that language version. Using a later switch in the series such as /std:c++latest (see the section on /std:c++latest below) will turn on post-C++14 features in addition to C++14 features. Note that there is no plan to add a C++11 switch.
There are some post-C++14 features already implemented in previous releases of the Visual C++ compiler. To avoid breaking changes for users who have already taken dependencies on these features we'll leave them under the /std:c++14 switch. They include the following features, all of which have already shipped in Visual Studio 2015 Update 2:
New rules for auto with braced-init-lists
typename in template template-parameters
Removing trigraphs
Attributes for namespaces and enumerators
u8 character literals
Note that some library features from C++17, such as std::is_convertible_v were also already implemented before the standards version switches were created and thus appear under /std:c++14.
/std:c++latest
The /std:c++latest switch will move forward the set of features implemented by Visual C++ with each new version of the C++ standards Working Draft. Currently it will track features that we add for the proposed post-C++14 draft standard. When the next standard is approved, the semantics opted-in with the /std:c++latest will be covered by /std:c++17 (assuming that the next standard is C++17, but the standards committee working group never ceases to surprise) and /std:c++latest will move forward to track the next draft standard's features. In another words, with /std:c++latest, you will always get the set of all new features currently implemented and on by default. (The /std:c++latest switch will not turn on new features guarded by the /experimental switch.)
Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 introduces two new switches (/std:c++14 and /std:c++latest) to give you control over the version of the C++ programming language you want to use in your projects. In this update, if you specify a language version that isn't any of those, the compiler will ignore the switch (with a warning) and default to C++14. You can try the compiler out today–see this blog post for details on how to get the VS 2015 Update 3 RC: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/2016/06/07/visual-studio-2015-update-3-rc/
As always, we're eager for you to try out the changes and give us feedback in the comments below, by email at visualcpp@microsoft.com, or through any of the usual channels: User Voice, Suggestions, Connect (for bugs), or even Send-A-Smile. We love hearing from you!

"Communication key to successful relationship"
As her film 'Gehraiyaan' is all set to release just days before Valentine's Day, Bollywood superstar Deepika Padukone, who has redefined romance with her actor-husband Ranveer Singh time and again, has shared the key to a good and healthy relationship
By Durga Chakravarty
NEW DELHI: As her film 'Gehraiyaan' is all set to release just days before Valentine's Day, Bollywood superstar Deepika Padukone, who has redefined romance with her actor-husband Ranveer Singh time and again, has shared the key to a good and healthy relationship.
The actress, who in 2018 was named as one of the 100 most influential people in the world by TIME, has also talked about what it feels like to be in love. She says for her love is trust, friendship, companionship and where one can just be oneself. Talking to IANS in a candid chat about what it takes to make a relationship healthy and successful, Deepika said: "Communication."
She added: "I think honest communication in a relationship is extremely important and it's not necessary that two people in a relationship are always on the same page. They may not necessarily have to agree with each other on all points but I think to communicate the way you feel about certain things and to be honest about that."
Deepika says "communication is extremely key and important, even if there are arguments and disagreements. The fact that you feel a certain way and to communicate is that I think is important. So, I think a key to a good or a healthy relationship is communication," added the doe-eyed actress. Deepika and Ranveer have set the benchmark of what love is with their constant romance-filled exchanges on social media. Asked what it feels like to be in love, Deepika shared: "Well, I think love in itself is a very loaded and complicated word to use like that I think. Also, because love just means so many different things to different people." She added: "But as far as I am concerned, for me love is trust, friendship, companionship, love is where you can just be yourself, love is adjustment. I think when you are 19 or 21, the definition of love is very different and when you get older the definition changes."

George Zimmerman Juror: 'We All Know Who's Guilty'
By Simon McCormackPosted: 10/31/2013 4:25 pm EDT | Updated: 10/31/2013 4:25 pm EDT
One of the jurors in the George Zimmerman trial said her life was ruined by the case and that she has doubts about the jury's verdict.
The juror, who has been identified only as "Maddy," gave an interview to Inside Edition's Les Trent that airs on Thursday.
Shortly after the trial concluded, Maddy lost friends who were upset by the verdict and lost her job at a nursing home, according to an Inside Edition press released.
She said she and her husband have had to sell their possessions to make ends meet, including her kitchen table. The family now eats on the floor.
Maddy said she's now days away from having to move into a homeless shelter because she can't afford her house.
"Emotionally, mentally, physically, I'm so drained. I can't stop thinking about the case," Maddy said in the release. "I have a heart. I got to hold the gun that killed this boy. I saw pictures I didn't need to see."
Maddy also told Trent she questions her reluctant decision to acquit Zimmerman of second-degree murder in the death of Trayvon Martin.
"We all know who's guilty," Maddy said. "George Zimmerman thinks he didn't do anything wrong."
Maddy previously told ABC's Robin Roberts that Zimmerman "got away with murder."
"… At the end of the day, he's going to have a lot of questions and answers he has to deal with. [But] the law couldn't prove it," Maddy told Roberts.
Maddy was the only minority on the six-person jury that acquitted Zimmerman in July.

Jolly Roger for President
I am hereby announcing my candidacy for the office of the President of the United States in the 2020 election. On the campaign trail I'll be wearing silver armor, riding on a white horse, and I'll make every promise that you want to hear. I'll behave in a very presidential manner, try not to grope anyone when cameras are watching, and of course, make the prerequisite trip to Israel.
I promise the invasion will end, the money will flow, and the American worker will make twice the salary in half the hours. The poor will be rich, the rich will be hanged, freedom, wealth, and justice will be restored, and world peace realized. Someone already used the "chicken in every pot" thing, or I'd promise that too.
Why should you vote for me? Because you're an idiot who believes whatever he's told, and no one shovels bullshit better than a writer. That's my one and only qualification for the job; I can lay down the horse hockey better than my opposition, and with your financial help, we'll hire the best advertising agency in America to drum our deliverance of Utopia deep into the thick heads of the mindless masses.
It doesn't matter what we promise the fools, because they'll forget all about it in three weeks, or two cases of beer, whichever comes first. After I'm elected we'll all get rich, and I'll find a golf course to hide out on while I await further orders. We'll just have to keep Air Force One fueled up in case the idiots wake up.
Meanwhile, back in the real world, Americans will continue to become homeless and hungry, but I'll be rich, so what the hell, right? If they're dumb enough to be so easily fleeced, don't they deserve to be fleeced?
Criminals and rich people think that way because it assuages their guilt. You're being treated like a useless eater, because you're behaving like one. Do you deserve the respect you're asking for? What are you going to do when our "government" officially announces that "you don't matter anymore, so just shut up and starve"?
In their eyes you happen to be a useless eater who's eating too much, while standing in the way of the theft of this country, and the installation of a slave population with a whole new set of American dreams that don't include you.
By now, even the most enthusiastic Trump supporter has to have realized that he's been played for a fool once again, but if you're still carrying the torch for the man, stop here and go find a comic book to read. You're not worth talking to, because you'd rather cling to a comforting fiction than logically assess a disturbing reality.
The reality (one of many) that you refuse to accept is that it doesn't matter who the president is. If you did accept that reality, as an American, a whole new set of responsibilities is dropped in your lap, so it's a lot more comforting to believing that someday, a politician will actually work for the American people. What if it were all just a show for your entertainment and distraction while your country were being sold from under your feet, and a slave population was invited across the southern border, possibly to violently assist with your removal from a country that was once yours?
I understand why most humans will cling to any leader who promises hope, but when they fall for the same trick every four years, demand no accountability for the endless theft and lies, and continuously find ways to deny reality, you have to come to the conclusion that they're going to keep denying reality for as long as they can get away with it.
Of course, by then it will be too late for most of them. They're being attacked, and victory demands preparation. Evidence of a mass awakening is a good reason to crash the economy, because that will make preparation impossible for many.
Meanwhile, back on the campaign trail, a squadron of geeks is polling the population to see how they feel. They're triggered by the responses, but really have no clue how the majority of the population feels, because the majority wants nothing to do with their stupid poll. They remain completely out of touch with the American people, so they proceed as if they still had everyone fooled. Their arrogance and derision for Americans becomes more obvious with each passing day, and record numbers of guns are sold. It's time to top off the tank in Air force One. They're starting to notice that from president to president, and promise to promise, the policy hasn't changed in decades. Only the rhetoric changes, while the illusion of dissent between the parties is maintained by crimes and misdeeds being exposed in the press that no one is ever punished for.
Back in the real world, the invasion over our southern border proceeds, more and more of our country is sold to foreigners, and the resource wealth continues to be stolen at a record pace, regardless of who holds what office.
We've been sold down the river by a rouge "government", whose only objective is to loot the country before they flee, and watch our nation's violent death from a safe distance. There's a real competition for political offices, but there is no real dissent as far as we're concerned. No politician genuinely cares what the American people think, or want. Their job is to pretend they care, so the theft can continue while the distracted population clings to the illusion.
I'm done with trying to shatter the illusion for people who are afraid to abandon it, so I've decided to join the illusion by being your next bullshit shoveler in chief, but since I sincerely doubt that the Rothschilds will let me write my own speeches, you won't even get genuine bullshit from your next president, but something even less than that. — Jolly Roger

Dear Future Prez, it would be my honor to have any position in your cabinet. I will serve loyally and at the same time keep an eye on your vice president in case he attempts to supplant you. I could be wrong, but he has shown presidential tendencies, in that he repeatedly resorts to the play-on-words strategy, and to using exaggerated and side-splitting humor. Some analysts have asserted, that this is an ultra sophisticated method of exposing corruption. I guess I would have to agree. But also, he spends an inordinate amount of time on the roof, and his extracurricular activities have raised more than one eye-brow. Nevertheless, he frequently wins the popular vote and the people look to him for insights and opinions that no other mind can muster.
That said, I'm glad you have thrown your name in the hat. You have a scathing track-record of truth-speak and quick solutions. It's very likely we'll see a landslide.

before you volunteer for any cabinet positions, you should know that for reasons of national security, we'll be turning the White House into a nudist colony.
LOL… I was too intelligent to volunteer for the military, intelligent ENOUGH to dodge the draft altogether (never registered), so you you can be DAMN SURE I'm not yet senile enough to volunteer for ANYTHING these days, JR 🙂
Dear Candidate Roger,
I have a fairly good understanding of which particular group of people is likely to have proposed this policy and is enforcing it vigorously, so I cannot align myself with this directive.
Therefore, please accept my resignation. Unless, as Head Honcho, you throw the bastards out and we get to dress as we choose.
I guess The White House is not a good environment for those who are UNTAMABLE.

Boy Dies After Being Struck by Vehicle Near Campbell Elementary
Published September 26, 2017 at 5:23 AM CDT
Springfield Public Schools
This post has been updated with information shared by the school district
A ten-year-old boy has died after he was hit by a vehicle near his school. Riddick Tudor was one of five people who were hit by an SUV while standing on a sidewalk on the northeast corner of Grant and Mt. Vernon. Police say the driver, 35-year-old Lonnie Yeager, reportedly experienced a medical episode.
A passenger in the vehicle was able to put the vehicle in park but not until after several people were injured.
Two Campbell Elementary employees were transported to area hospitals and treated for non-life threatening injuries. Three children, including Tudor, were also transported to hospitals. The surviving children are in stable condition.
The driver was treated for non-life threatening injuries.
The Springfield Police Department Traffic Section is conducting an investigation and says impairment does not appear to be a factor at this time.
Late Monday, Springfield Public Schools said in a statement that Tudor's death "is devastating for the entire Campbell Elementary community."
A crisis team will to be available at Campbell Tuesday to assist students and staff in coping with their grief. Information for parents about how to talk with their child about loss and support them has been posted to the Campbell Elementary School Facebook page.
The district statement also said "We will make every effort to comfort and support the Campbell family, especially this student's loved ones, as they deal with this tragic loss. Please keep them in your thoughts during this difficult time."

This 36-inch electric cooktop has a sleek, ceramic-glass surface and touch-activated controls that add to its sleek design. You'll get consistent temperatures without hot or cool spots and a range of simmer and melt settings. To maximize the 36-inch space, you get a triple-ring and two double-ring elements that let you match element performance to cookware size.
Create two elements in one location. The inner rings are used like standard six-inch elements. The outer rings add size and power for large cookware. A simmer function works on both the inner and outer element.
Gives you added versatility and takes the guesswork out of finding the perfect power level for soups and sauces. Even-Heat™ elements offer customized heat control with a range of simmer settings.
Provides the ability to get the low temperatures needed to melt chocolate or butter without scorching. The element uses Even-Heat™ technology to maintain a constant supply of power.
Provides an ultra-low electric element output that does not exceed 100 watts. This makes it ideal for keeping cooked foods warm.
Rated 4 out of 5 by BirdPeople from No Knobs - Pros and Cons This cooktop is great. I absolutely love the "Keep Warm" and "Melt + Hold" features. The "Simmer" temperature seems too high for my taste. My only concern is that the control is all in the touch screen control panel and just brushing the control panel or placing something on it can turn the whole cooktop off! Then you have to reset each burner you have on. It is a three step touch process to turn on any burner which is Power + whichever burner + temp number. It also takes some figuring out how to operate it so it may not be for everyone. The Ceran top does clean up nice with a cleaning kit designed for glass/Ceran cooktops. Then it looks like new!
Rated 4 out of 5 by Mom of 2 from fantastic 5th element we have had this for about a month. love having the extra element in the middle and the fact that it is larger than your typical large element. great for the bigger pots and pans. love that you can choose the size of the element so if you have a bunch of smaller pots on the go and need the extra small element you can set a bigger one to a smaller size only the inner ring heats up. Still getting used to the temperature controls. they are hotter than our previous stove. that will come with time. Only issue we have so far is that the control centre is sensitive so if you place a pot or pan or cloth, anything really, on it it will turn the whatever is on off.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Big Red from Nice improvement Have used for about 4 months. This cooktop replaced a 30" that had stop working in all burners. The 36" cooktop is a huge improvement over the old one. Five burners and the extra room is nice to have, and we make use of those features almost daily. A no-knob control panel is great as the pots do not have anything to bang against. The burners are adjustable from 1-9 heat settings, big burners can be set to a smaller diameter by the push of a button, and the burners heat up fast. Burners do stay hot for a while after turned off, which is indicated by "H" until they are cooled down. Would definitely purchase again.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Maryo from Nice features I've had this cooktop for about 6 weeks. So far so good! The only thing I do not care for, and this may be true of any glass cooktop is that it is very hard to keep the top clean. And after only a couple times of using it, the top has "marks" on some of the burners that will not come off, regardless of how much I clean it. I've tried a couple of products specifically for this purpose with no luck. If you want a clean looking cooktop i would not recommend going with glass, Also, if you set something on top of the cooktop when it is off, it will beep intermittently to let you know it is there, which can be annoying.
Rated 2 out of 5 by rickandsue from Very attractive cook top but with some major issues We bought 4 KitchenAid products at the same time (fridge, oven,micro and cooktop). The cooktop was the only item we have had problems with. While very attractive, the shiny finish does not appear to be mar resistant. After limited usage, we already have some scratches, and some clear marring - even with recommended pots and pans. Our previous top had a matte finish and held up over 16 years - despite countless family gatherings and multiple cooks. Only in the past year did it shown signs of wear. Also, the controls on this model are very complicated. We should not have to treat a cooktop with kid gloves.
Rated 4 out of 5 by RogerV from 5 Burner Cooktop We installed a 36" Kitchenaid ceramic cooktop 6-7 years ago and after 2-3 years the large, multiple ring burner began to get hotspots and heat unevenly higher in the lower left quadrant. This past week it cracked while cooking, and the burner was set at med-high. We will replace it, and I prefer KA, bu5 I am concerned about durability,as the home had a 20 year old Hotpoint ceramic that was still serviceable when we replaced it.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Omerp from A great concept but I still haven't adjusted to gradually changing the heat or cold content of the burners and am still getting FE errors and blowing the circuit breaker. But, if I remember not to put a hot pan on a cold burner and not to put a cold pan on a warm burner and not to take a pan off a hot burner without shutting it down first, this cooktop is a dream. I like the controls and I like having 5 burners. It is great instant heat and being able to regulate the size of the heating surface with the touch of a finger is a great concept.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Swan Mother from Everything works so well on it. I bought a used condo. My intention was to buy a glass top stove the same brand as the other appliances. When it had been installed and used, the salesman and I decided did not fit the opening. So my appliance salesman suggested "KITCHENAID". I wanted a matching one but what could I do. I was NOT happy!! The KITCHENAID glass top cooktop was installed (after much adjusting) and looked terribly complicated to me. (After-all, I had already gotten used-to the other brand.) After one month of using this KITCHENAID stove top, I was in love. By-then the controls were simple to use. But cleaning the glass top was a breeze with this brand. I have had glass top ranges for decades. THIS ONE is the best of all of them! It heats very fast. Cooks evenly. And cleans like a dream!
Rated 5 out of 5 by V. Diehl from Nice Cooktop, no knobs! :) Bought this about a month ago to replace a very aged and barely functioning cooktop. In love with it so far. Three large burners and two small ones give plenty of cooking options. Digital controls eliminate the headaches of cleaning of and around knobs. Seems to be a good value for the price.

If the Mercedes Metris Weekender set your hopes high for an awesome, accessible American mini-campervan, only to bring them crashing down with its projected $70,000+ price tag, we've found an equally cute, cozy mini-campervan that's much more affordable. Based on a tiny Nissan NV200 cargo van, the West Coast Mini from Canada's Wilderness Vans is one of the simplest, most affordable camper vans you'll find in North America. But it still packs what you need for an on/off-grid road trip, including a water supply, fridge/freezer, dining area, solar power and snug bed or two. Let Wilderness do the installation or have it shipped and install yourself.
With its small footprint, affordable price and 25-mpg combined fuel economy, the 186-in (472-cm) Nissan NV200 is a lovable, little van that makes for a smart, nimble camper. But it takes a little thought and care to get it there since it's among the smallest vans on American roadways.
In the past, we've seen the NV200 camper van code cracked with Caravan Outfitter's full-width bed and under-bed rear cooking slide-outs, but Wilderness Vans goes more traditional for the West Coast Mini. In fact, at one point it was calling the floor plan the "California," clearly inspired by Volkswagen's famous van. Like the California, the West Coast Mini has a driver-side kitchen block and folding rear bench/bed. The kitchen comes standard with a sink and 40L fridge, and buyers can opt for an available sink/stove combo.
The Mini carries four people during the ride and seats two at a removable dining table at camp. At night, the dual-seat rear bench folds down to create a double bed. At just 34 in (86 cm) wide, it's not exactly a roomy, luxurious night of sleep for two, but compromises are inevitable when you're squeezing a bed next to a kitchen inside an NV200. Wilderness Vans positions the Mini as a step up from a tent on the camping comfort hierarchy.
The rear of the conversion includes a tall driver-side cabinet with roller face and a small passenger-side tip-out cabinet designed to hold personal belongings at night. There are also two under-bed drawers and a side cabinet inside the tailgate.
The leisure battery is located in a lower compartment in the roller cabinet and stays charged with help from a standard 250W solar panel. Other standard features include a MaxxAir fan, LED lighting, USB and electrical outlets, 13L fresh and gray water tanks, a water pump, flooring and wall and ceiling panels.
The West Coast Mini conversion reminds us a lot of the Envy from LA-based Recon Campers, albeit without a pop-up roof. Wilderness Vans does not offer a pop-top as an option but can add a roof-top tent for buyers looking for an extra two berths.
The West Coast Mini package costs CAD$18,900 (approx. US$14,000) installed or CAD$12,400 (US$9,075) shipped to the buyer on a pallet as a DIY kit. Buyers can bring their vans up to Wilderness' Alberta headquarters for installation, not a bad place to find yourself with a brand-new camper van given that it's within an hour and a half of the US/Canadian border-straddling Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park. Wilderness also has several partner installers/resellers around the US and is in the process of adding more.
To drop a bottom line on things, you can buy a new Nissan NV200 cargo van starting at US$23,875 after destination charge, so you drive away with a brand-new Wilderness camper van for around US$38,000 installed, under $34,000 if you don't mind doing the work yourself. The previously linked NV200-based Caravan Outfitter Free Bird, the Ram Promaster City Cascade Camper and NV200 Recon Weekender are others to look at if you're shopping this end of the market for a mini-camper based on a brand-new van.
Wilderness Vans is also working on Mini packages for the Ford Transit Connect and Ram Promaster City. It additionally offers a variety of larger floor plans for the likes of the Ford Transit and Ram Promaster.

The Nissan NV200 is a pretty unpleasant van to drop $30-40k into. It does okay for a plumber, but it's rather unrefined and gas-hungry on the highway, and has early 2000s design and build quality.
I'm glad to read that they are working on upfitting other vans too. The Ram ProMaster City and Ford Transit Connect are capable, comfortable on the highway, sip fuel, and can be had brand new for under $25k. Companies like Cascade Campers and Wayfarer Vans offer installed conversions for under $8k, or do it yourself as I have.

The Incredibles 2: Clip of Jack-Jack Fighting The Raccoon Released Online
September 6, 2018 Mr. Greg Universe
The Incredibles 2 is set to come to home video next month, and Disney Pixar is starting their slow and steady marketing push. Just in, they've released one of the more memorable scenes from the film where Jack-Jack has a tussle with a raccoon.
While there are a lot of things to love about the movie, this scene with Jack-Jack has come out to be a fan-favorite. With no dialogue and purely visuals, it felt like a Pixar short within the film. Just watching Jack-Jack's roster of powers as he messes with a raccoon is a delight; not to mention the raccoon's reactions are just hilarious.
The Incredibles 2 was a huge success when it came out, and a lot of people think that the movie was worth the wait after the decade long wait since the first movie. I'll admit, the story doesn't seem as grandiose as the first, but shifting the focus on Elastigirl and making a compelling argument from the villain makes Incredibles 2 a cinematic delight.
After the events of The Incredibles (2004), Elastigirl (Helen) is sent on a mission to make supers legal again. Mr. Incredible (Bob) is left to care for Jack-Jack, Violet, and Dash. When a dangerous new threat arises, it is up to the family to neutralize the threat and save the day once again.
The Incredibles 2 hits digital Oct. 23, and will be available on Blu-Ray Nov. 6.

My War With Bed Bugs.
Recently I was lucky enough to spend time in a group home here in Phoenix. It was not the best and far from the worst.......BUT, bed bugs are a serious problem in this type of environment. The problem is even worse with the lack of money and participation of EVERYBODY living in the same space.
This is not a how to or step by step instructable. My intention is to provide information to a person who may be as desperate as I was to rid myself of these diabolical, persistent, parasitic BUGS.
Step 1: My Only Line of Defence.
This worked well and was used throughout this campaign. My biggest problem was cost and missing spots while trying to "yoga spray" my entire body. Also while sitting on furniture it would wear off elbows, backs of my legs, and my waist line.... thus waking with small areas of dined on flesh.
Step 2: The First Combat Agent.
This worked well. Except it gassed us out of the house on my first attempt. I tried several mixtures but only could get complaints from the peanut gallery. I have no actual idea how well this worked because the "management" put an end to my high hopes for a perfect mixture.
Step 3: The Second Attempt.
Diatomaceous earth worked well.....at first. It involved lots of cleaning and this is where I lost all support. If everybody is not involved and committed (and some had been committed) to a diligent effort, its a fruitless endeavor.
Step 4: A Third Flop.
Rubbing alcohol make them run like mad. Then they run back after it has evaporated and you lay your tasty flesh to rest.
Step 5: Failure on the Fourth and Fifth.
Rosemary. I thought it was perfect. It smells good and grows at almost every apartment complex in town. My problem was I was making a bigger mess than it was worth. Then I cooked the rosemary down for the oil and used a spray solution. It worked for a while but it was just too much to keep the oil in production with the use of clean sheets ....... but man did I smell good!
Step 6: My Last Attempt and It Worked.
I'm not proud of this, or tired BUT........ I came to the conclusion that I was covering myself in petrochemicals. So.... Why not cover the bed? I have a buddy who is a mobile mechanic. I remembered this moving blanket he used for a drop cloth on peoples driveways and covered the bed with it. It worked like a champ and YES, I smelled like a dirty wrench when I woke up every day. That was taken care of with a shower in the morning. Truth be told it made a wrapped mattress quieter and much more comfortable. I slept comfortably, saving what is left of my sanity, for over a month till my departure.
As far as the furniture in the living room, I acquired a metal folding chair. From time to time I'd get a bite on my ankles or arms but that is a far cry from what I started with.
All my clothes went into a large garbage bag. I then went to the $1 store, bought a pack of boxers, and a comfortable horrible looking T-shirt. My next stop was the laundromat and I changed into my new threads. I then cooked my clothes (including my shoes) in the dryer well over an hour with every quarter I could conger up. I found 9 bed bugs between 2 lint traps.
I've been bed bug free since.
These are extreme circumstances, in a unhealthy living environment, with almost no cooperation. This IS NOT a set of instruction to follow just helpful information if you where to find yourself in a similar situation........ and may your God help you if you do!
I've been told there are mattress covers to incase mattresses in but I don't know where they are sold.
Also for the person who talked of Delta Dust, that is also used but it is a slow process as long as it is left to do its job it will reduce the infestation greatly. DriOne is another product that is also used as well and is also effective but is not available to the general public. Tempo Ultra SC is a very powerful product and us tyoucally used for exterior treatments and can also be used in dumpsters, balers and compactors for large flies. Demand CS is also a good alternative but is not used for bed bug treatments and should not be used with people or animals present.
For those of you who do have bed bug issues, and this is coming from me a pest elimination professional who works for one of the big companies, Tempo SC or WP is not approved for bed bugs as of yet and is not used for bed bug control or elimination nor is it federally apprived for that use. I deal with bed bugs on a daily basis in hotels and other locations, we use Temprid and Transport which are highly effective and are extremely useful in treatments especially in mattresses, headboards, bed sheets, linens and clothing. These are for professionals only and the general public should not be attempting to use or recommending products such as Tempo SC or others unless you are state certified as I am and are trained and qualified. These are potent chemicals and must be handled and mixed properly and used properly in their guidelines of use ie EPA and product labels. Find a certified and experienced pest elimination and IPM provider in your area always. Any questions please don't hesitate to ask.
We used a combination of Hot Shot Bed Bug and flea killer (liquid in gallon with sprayer) and Ortho Home Defense (also the liquid) and that has worked for us along with cleaning and laundering EVERYTHING!! The worst part for me is that I am highly allergic to the nasty things!! My skin is very scarred but slowly improving. Even worse is the psychological damage it causes. Have not slept more than 4-5 hours a night for over a year. Hope this is helpful and good luck to all who are dealing with these nasty critters!!
Hi. Does it still seem like your combination liquid spray worked?
I am very happy to know there is a group that has or is experiencing the same thing I'm experiencing.
the best product for bedbugs is called Delta Dust. Its what the pros use. Its like DE except it is impervious to water and will last kill any and i mean any insect that comes in contact with it for 18 months. It kills almost instantly. best method is a good steamer ( 150 degree plus to be safe) vacuum, dryer, DE for high traffic areas and delta dust to end all.
i had a slight if you can call it that bedbug problem while staying @ a shelter , and when i left i took all my laundry to the laundromat-- has to have gas fired dryers-- electric dryers do not get hot enough and washed all my clothes and sheets on heavy soil and extra rinse then dried them until they almost burned my fingers pulling them out of the dryer. worked like a charm. ..here in Fl, there are small salamanders like geckos that love eating roaches and other bugs, so i found one in my apt and let him loose.. economical and no residue and free..and they dont bother with human food..havent seen any roaches after that.
Just today read an article in the NY Times on how BEAN LEAVES have been an Eastern European Folk Remedy for bed bugs for millenia. However science got involved and discovered--IT WORKS.
If you have ever picked beans there is a certain "velcro" quality to the leaves that GRABS the legs and the more they struggle the more entangled they get. I dunno where you would get a large quantity of bean leaves but if you had access and need--well that IS the mother of invention!
Scientists are trying to replicate this as a trap but have not gotten this market worthy yet. Mebbe a farmers market?
I suspect the problem in a communal living space is that there are always NEW bugs being brought in and if you don't get EVERYONE on board---they will never go away.
No plans to leave. I just had to raise my standards of living. Not long ago I stayed at a seedy apartment complex and heard of some tenants having bed bugs. I no longer let any neighbors in my door. Then, I would see people move out and toss a mattress, blankets, or sheets in the dumpster. Never fail, you could always count on a person dumpster diving these goods and taking them home.
And apartment management like to keep it on the down low the complete opposite of what you would want to do to stop it.
Man I hear you on this one I got them after moving into an apartment building two heat treatments later and a massive campaign of sealing all small holes vents etc sleeping on a cot with barriers in the way and I have not seen them for months now no bites either I also used Diatomaceous earth and I can verify it works having caught a few of the suckers and testing it its slow acting of course given how it works but good. I also taped a square of glossy scotch tape on the ceiling above my bed to keep them from falling on me. They do that.
There where bunk beds on both sides of the room. Your correct. They did cross the ceiling. The guy on the top bunk laid there and smashed them all the time. Gee, thanks for reminding me. all the smashed blood spots where gross. Anything anybody has gone through can help the next.
I read about a pesticide a few weeks ago called Tempo Ultra SC (Cyfluthrin, cyano 11.8%). It is starting to be looked at for eliminating bed bug infestations because it offers residual protection (along with being very effective for killing them quickly). I don't like to recommend chemicals to anyone... but you were clearly past that point. I believe there are all-natural ways to get it done but sometimes you need to pull out the big guns.
The big guns...... and I was pretty broke. Thank you for your information. I don't wish anyone to go through what I did.
bed bugs freak me out and I think I would totally flip my sh!t if I found them on me or even more horrifying…in my house.
The only time I freaked out was on the bus. I looked down and one crawled from under sweatshirt on to my denim pants leg. I seriously freaked out.......and justifiably so I believe.
My methods are not for everybody. But you hit the key point, information. Thank you for the link. Its a good article and stresses this can and has the possibility to afflict anyone.


When I was growing up, we ate turkey every week. Not just on Christmas and special holidays. I always look forward to making turkey meals for my family because it reminds me so much of the time I would eat when I was a child. Turkey chili and turkey meatballs are huge favourites in our home an excellent source of protein. If you're looking for some ways to incorporate turkey into your everyday meals and meal planning preparation, then you've come to the right place. Today I'm featuring a tex-mex tasty turkey meatloaf recipe. This recipe is delicious and super easy to make! I'm also sharing some ways you can make over your meal using Canadian Turkey.
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Canadian Turkey. All opinions are 100% mine.
In a non-stick skillet, sauté onions until softened and slightly cooked, 2-4 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Pre-heat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Combine remaining ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Gently mix together until ingredients are combined. Do not over mix.
Bake in a standard size loaf pan for 45 minutes or until an instant thermometer registers a temperature of 165 °F (74°C).
TIP: Serve this meatloaf with a selection of healthy sides so your family can enjoy their favourites and create a well-rounded meal. Try salsa, avocado slices, shredded lettuce, tomatoes, and guacamole or shredded cheese.
Below are some tips on how you can makeover everyday meals with Turkey.
Make the switch! Turkey makes a fantastic everyday choice for all your protein needs. Think about switching to turkey and turkey cuts for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. Turkey is lean, nutrient-rich and packed with protein to give you long-lasting energy that powers you through your busy everyday schedules and activities.
Boost your nutrients! Swap in turkey to any of your favourite dishes for an instant nutritional boost. Turkey is packed with nutrients like vitamin B12 (important in keeping your nervous system – the body's electrical wiring – working well), selenium (an antioxidant mineral) and zinc (for a strong immune system).
Bump up the protein! Eating 20 to 30 grams of quality protein with all of your meals, along with being active, can help build and maintain muscle. Protein delivers hunger-curbing satisfaction to keep you energized for longer. Turkey is the power protein of choice – it's an excellent source of high-quality protein with each 100-gram portion serving up about 30 grams of lean protein.
I've attached the Canadian Turkey Meal Makeover Guide for even more delicious and easy recipe ideas.

The McCains of Mississippi
John McCain's relatives maintain contact with the descendants of slaves owned by their ancestors in Mississippi.
The black and white McCain families have long acknowledged their shared history at Teoc, a name that applies to both the plantation and the now-sparse community around it. A cousin of the senator still owns 1,500 acres of the original 2,000. Sen. McCain's younger brother, Joe, and other white McCains have attended family reunions organized by the African-American McCains. [Link]
A 2000 Salon article described Sen. McCain as "surprised" to learn that his ancestors owned slaves.
In 1876 ... a Mary J. McCain married Isham Hurt. The two had a son, blues guitarist "Mississippi" John Hurt, in 1892 on Teoc, the plantation community where the McCains owned 2,000 acres.
"Is that right?" McCain asked, after considering his possible connection to the famous bluesman, who died in 1966. "That's fascinating," he said. [Link]

Let me guess: Back before the Civil War, one of the McCains was running for public office, and a newspaper journalist asked him how many slaves the McCains owned, and the candidate had to admit that he didn't know but that he would have to have his staff get back to the reporter on it.

24. JR Work at the Hudson Theater
At the back of the Hudson Theater in Times Square, you will find a recent work from JR in his signature black and white "Inside Out" project style that features some well-known faces: Jake Gyllenhaal and Tom Sturridge, both of whom are starring in the play "Sea Wall/A Life." In fact, the JR did a piece there because Gyllenhaal personally asked him to, as Frances Doods of Architectural Digest reports, and the stars of the show helped paste the work up which has over 100 faces.
Gyllenhaal felt that JR's work would be a nice tandem to the play, which often involves the audience. He tells AD that JR's "art is messy and imperfect and demands us to look at ourselves, to forgive ourselves, to be kind with each other. It allows us to be vulnerable and feel part of a whole; it makes us feel big and loved at the same time."
