I'm looking for a feature for a CMS.
I'm working with a client, a local church, to redo their Web site from static XHTML to something more modern and easy to maintain.
As I've talked with the staff members who have some stake in the Web site its become obvious that they need a CMS, they are not technically oriented and do not have anyone readily available to maintain the site anymore, so they need a simple way of updating the site themselves. I am just there for this project with no prospect of staying on.
I've never worked with a CMS before, I've done other Web sites using hand-coded HTML and PHP. I've restricted my search for a CMS to 3: Drupal, WordPress and Joomla! I've spent a few days each with Drupal and WordPress running of my local machine. I'm very impressed with Drupal for its extendability and WordPress for simplicity.
They have a need that to me seems rather basic but I cannot find in either of those CMSs so far, what I'm calling "timed content", a simple way of displaying content on a schedule, with an optional "coming soon" message beforehand and a "The event/relevance has passed" afterward without needing a database. This features allows the queuing of content with known deadlines months ahead of time, as well as not displaying the content after it is no longer relevant. I am the Webmaster for another church's site, and have implemented this features for them using a simple PHP function with ifs.
Most of the pages on the site consist of static content with the exception of a few sections on many pages where this concept would be helpful.
I've searched Drupal's modules and spent hours Googling for an equivalent for WordPress. I have found modules/extensions that allow for a post to appear on a schedule, but no any way of having the same content cease being displayed on a schedule, displaying it on an existing static page, or the before and after messages.
I haven't looked into Joomla! yet, but it seems to fall between Drupal and WordPress on extendability vs. simplicity so perhaps it will have an extension that provides this functionality.
This is the only missing feature for this project that I have not found some way of implementing via either of the CMSs I've looked at so far; if one CMS supports this feature and the others do not, I will go with the CMS that does support it.

Will talk of big pensions bring reform?
Some say focus on the outliers is the wrong approach
"If people begin to realize that they are working their entire lives to pay their taxes, to put their own kids through college, to save for their retirement and then see that their tax dollars are going to pay for 12,000 people to have $100,000 retirements and a number of people to have multi-hundred-thousand-dollar retirements, it's going to take those taxpayers getting upset to force the change that needs to happen in Sacramento," said Assemblyman Brian Jones, R-Santee.
"Hardworking families that are trying to make ends meet, paying their taxes on time, should be outraged by these kinds of stories."
Steve Maviglio, a spokesman for Californians for Retirement Security, said the administrator's retirement package is the exception, not the rule.
CalPERS says that among about 514,000 retirees, beneficiaries and survivors, 50 percent have annual pensions of $18,000 or less, 12 percent receive $18,001 to $25,000, 24 percent receive $25,001 to $55,000 and another 12 percent brought in $55,001 to $99,000, according to the latest figures available.
"Two percent of pensions are more than $100,000 — never mind in that stratospheric level — and it gives the rest of the hardworking public servants a black eye when the typical pension in the state is $26,000," said Maviglio, a longtime Capitol insider whose labor coalition represents more than 1.5 million public employees and retirees. "Progressive people don't like things like this and union members don't like things like this because it makes the public think this is typical when it is atypical."
David Crane, an economic adviser to former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, characterized the planned $400,000-plus annual pension a classic example of a story that grabs the public's attention but doesn't move the needle on reforming the system.
"I am with the unions on this one, when they say they hate to see this sort of thing because it paints all pensions as large," said Crane, a lecturer at Stanford University and president of the nonprofit Govern for California that focuses on reform. "They are correct. Most aren't that large.
"You could get rid of every single high pension in the state and you would not solve the pension problem. It's a problem about aggregate math."
The state's public pension systems for state workers, teachers, professors and judges estimate owing more than $120 billion more in benefits than will be available to pay over the next three decades. Investment honchos and academics have projected the tab as being much higher than that tally — from $270 billion to exceeding $500 billion.
The problem arises not because of a handful of super-sized pensions, or even pension plans themselves, but from politicians making promises and not funding them, Crane said.
"Everything in the pension world is all about what's the investment return assumption at the time they make the promise because that's what determines the size of the contribution they make to meet the promise," he said. "If pension funds are allowed to use super-high investment return assumptions, which are unrealistic and will never be realized, that will always create large deficiencies down the road."

Restoring a classic Corvette can be both a highly rewarding pursuit and a frustrating endeavor. To be sure, bringing a muscle car that has fallen into disrepair back to its former glory provides immeasurable satisfaction. But the challenges that often arise during such a resurrection can prove a test of one's mechanical mettle as well as one's sanity-and some cursed cars require far more effort than others.
Russell Long's '80 Chevrolet Corvette is a testament to the dual nature of automotive restoration. The C3 earned the nickname "Evil '80" not only for its menacing appearance, but also for its painful resurrection process. When Long found the car in the local classifieds in 2000, he was enticed by the Stingray shape to forego the conveniences afforded by more-modern fare. "I like the shape of the C3s, [as] they have more of a muscle-car look than the newer ones," he says. Intrigued by the low asking price, he decided to check it out.
Despite having little background with third-gen Vettes, Long decided to buy the car. But while he had grand long-term aspirations, his Corvette was initially in a poor state and had to be towed home. "It was a bucket of crap before I resurrected it," he concedes. As the owner of Performance World, a speed shop in Brisbane, Australia, Russell felt he was well equipped to initiate a Corvette renaissance, but he did not yet apprehend the true scope of the task ahead of him.
A closer inspection of the car turned up little cause for elation, and Long began to feel he had been ripped off. In fact, the more he looked, the more he was astonished at the number of serious problems the Corvette presented. He explains: "After getting the car home, [I found a] dodgy right-hand conversion, engine mounts tack-welded from about 15 pieces of scrap steel, the latest cardboard-and-fiberglass mix all through the car, the power-steer ram bent . . . It went on and on." While these challenges may have been a source of trepidation for many people, Long committed to making something of his tatterdemalion C3.
Long first sought the assistance of Drift Body Works in Caboolture, Australia, to address the car's damaged body. Revitalizing the fiberglass proved to be no small task, with the process ultimately consuming more than 2 1/2 years. All that hard work paid off, however, as the C3's current pristine body and paint job offer no hint of its once-dilapidated condition. An L88-style hood was added to give the Vette a more intimidating countenance, and the resulting sinister look complements the car's checkered background. The restoration process also called for fresh lights and lenses as well as various other trim items.
After the extensive body repair, Long began to breathe new life into the powertrain. He decided to abandon the lackluster original engine and begin with a clean slate. A rare (in Australia, anyway) four-bolt SBC block was chosen for the foundation. Inside, a set of Probe forged pistons were united with a Scat forged crankshaft and Scat steel rods.
Crowning the potent small-block is an Edelbrock Super Victor intake manifold that is fed by an AED 750 carburetor and topped with a K&N 3-inch air cleaner. The top end benefits from a pair of AFR 195cc aluminum cylinder heads equipped with Milodon valves and Crane Gold roller rockers. The camshaft is a rowdy solid roller with a custom grind and confidential specs.
Ignition-system components include an MSD Pro distributor, a Proform alternator, and Queensland Ignition Leads plug wires. All of the action is supported by a Holley Dominator fuel pump, a custom aluminum radiator, and a High Energy oil pan. Exhaust gases exit through custom headers and a 3-inch exhaust system built by Fat Pipes.

Ura.ru 'make the politicians work' by Voskhod
The Russian online magazine Ura.ru recently graffitied the faces of local politicians who broke promises about road repairs on to pot holes in the city of Yekaterinburg.
Media buzz about the caricatures – of the city's governor, the mayor and the deputy mayor, who had broken their pledges to repair the pot holes – meant that the politcians were shamed into finally fixing the roads.
The agency claims that the traffic on Ura.ru's website doubled throughout the campaign.

Women and Psychology
This series brings together current theory and research on women and psychology. Drawing on scholarship from a number of different areas of psychology, it bridges the gap between abstract research and the reality of women's lives by integrating theory and practice, research and policy.
Each book addresses a 'cutting edge' issue of research, covering topics such as postnatal depression and eating disorders, and addressing a wide range of theories and methodologies.
The series provides accessible and concise accounts of key issues in the study of women and psychology, and clearly demonstrates the centrality of psychology debates within women's studies or feminism.

The eight short-listed design teams have been announced for a competition to redevelop the Windermere Steamboat Museum on the shores of Windermere.
The Lakeland Arts Trust recently secured initial support for a £7.4m Heritage Lottery Fund bid, including £494,000 development funding, to take the project forward. The project aims to create an exciting and active museum which will use the lake and the lakeside setting to display the nationally significant collection of steam launches, motor boats, yachts and other vessels which are all associated with Windermere.
The first stage of the competition attracted 114 expressions of interest. The short-list (in order of the architect leading the multi-disciplinary design team) is as follows: Carmody Groarke; Adam Khan Architects; Niall McLaughlin Architects; Terry Pawson Architects; Reiach and Hall Architects; 6a Architects; Sutherland Hussey Architects; Witherford Watson Mann Architects.
Martin Ainscough, Chairman of the Lakeland Arts Trust, commented: "We are very encouraged by the quality of entries in the architectural competition and the judging panel had a difficult decision to select the final eight for the shortlist. We are looking forward to working with the successful practice to create a world class facility in the heart of the Lake District.."
Gordon Watson, the trust's chief executive, added: "We are looking for a fresh, well-detailed and sensitive response for the stimulating and highly significant site on Windermere and to display the museum's wonderful collection of boats."
The second stage of the competition will seek design concepts for the project. Architects will need to take into account the requirement of displaying the boats and other items in the collection in the exhibition space and wet dock, and enabling visitors to see the boats being restored in the conservation workshop, as well as designing an appropriate facility for the location to provide a world-class visitor experience.
The design proposals will be subject to public display and comment in late October 2011 and the design teams will be invited to present their schemes to the jury panel at final interviews in late November 2011.
A SNOW leopard which featured in a movie starring Daniel Craig and Nicole Kidman is the latest addition to a South Lakeland zoo.
Young male Pavan, one of two leopards who played the part of Stelamaria in The Golden Compass, will be housed in a walk-through enclosure at Lakeland Wildlife Oasis at Hale, near Milnthorpe.
Staff have created a homely feel for their new feline friend with the enclosure designed to look like a Himalayan village with plenty of rocks for him to climb and snooze on.
An acrylic tunnel running through the enclosure will allow visitors to see Pavan in his own habitat in what is thought to be the UK's first walk-through big cat exhibit.
Assistant manager of Lakeland Wildlife Oasis, Caroline Howard, said: "We're really excited about Pavan's arrival - he's a real celebrity cat! His new home is amazing. You can walk right through his territory while he ranges around you - even above your head!"
Pavan has arrived from UK charity the Cat Survival Trust which helps conserve endangered cats.
Once he has settled in his new environment, zoo staff hope to form a breeding pair by adding a female snow leopard to Pavan's enclosure.It is not known how many snow leopards are left in the wild but they are now classed as endangered by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature.
Lakeland Wildlife Oasis is joining the captive breeding programme which is run by the European Association of Zoos and Aquariums.

'VERY knowledgable' staff at a popular Kendal attraction are celebrating after securing a top accreditation.
Kendal Museum has been accredited as a Quality Assured Visitor Attraction - an assessment run by Visit England and recognises customer service and visitor experience at attractions across the country.
A Visit England assessor praised the strong collections, recognising the effort that has gone into creating a well-balanced wildlife gallery and the considerable effort that has been put into modernising the Wainwright Gallery.
In a report, the assessor said of the museum: "The Wildlife Gallery succeeds in presenting specimens from five continents in an imaginative and lively fashion that can be readily grasped by children".
Learning facilities for children were also praised along with 'excellent' reading books being available.
The Wainwright Gallery was also commended for its cabinets and the assessor said that the staff 'engaged well and were very knowledgeable'.
The assessor summed up his judgement and reported: "There is a wealth of excellent material in the museum – with the Wildlife Gallery and the Wainwright exhibits showing what can be achieved. The possibilities for mutually beneficial exchanges of skills with college courses and museum qualifications seem exciting. There is huge potential scope for the Museum."

iMore Today: iOS 6 beta 3, the Retina iPad mini, Office 2013, and the new Yahoo! queen
Today on iMore we're talking me.com to icloud.com email transitions, whether Retina is a deal breaker in the iPad mini, the lack of Office for iPad, and how Marissa Mayer went from Googler #20 to Yahoo CEO #20. This is iMore Today!
Behind the scenes
Over a year ago we started talking about doing brief, daily video recaps of the news on iMore and the other Mobile Nations sites. Each editor would take a turn across the sites, or each writer would take a turn on the sites, and we'd provide a way for our readers to become viewers, and enjoy the most important news of the day in a fast, fun new way.
That idea eventually begat the Monday Brief, now heading into its second season thanks to the inimitable hosting genius of one Ashley Esqueda.
But the idea of a daily show on iMore never went away. It do get out of control for a while, however, as we explored the option of a full studio setup. Because things always cost more than you expect, and take longer than you expect, while we waiting to report on the days events in perfect fashion, we lost out on a lot of time and opportunity to report on it in good enough fashion.
So we decided to take action. We decided to do.
iMore Today is going to be a semi-regular news roundup. We haven't settled on much yet. We'll have better music, better graphics, and a better format in the weeks to come.
Consider this an experiment.
We want to give you more, different, and better ways to enjoy iMore, and to share it with your friends and family who may not be interested in reading the blogs all day, every day, but do want a daily dose of tech.
We're not sure how geeky to keep it yet, or how mainstream to make it. We do want it to be accessible, however, and so today's debut episode is probably quite a bit more inside baseball than future episodes will be.
If you haven't already, give it a watch and tell me what you think. iMore today is meant for you, and for everyone who has an iPhone and iPad. Like all our projects, we want to make it the very best it can be, and that means making it the best for you. What do you want to see?

iMore Today: iOS 6 beta 3, the Retina iPad mini, Office 2013, and the new Yahoo! queen
Office - It's probably a hardening of attitudes at Microsoft. Pushing Surface and Win8 will involve a period of harder work for them. I wonder if the Office Dev team are disapointed - the workspace iPad is becoming "normal" (as Blackberry once was). Android users would like Office as well but that could take even longer.
You are looking fed up Rene, not one smile. Whats up man?

Many homeowners are breaking down – often literally – their kitchen, dining and living room walls in favor of large multipurpose rooms. Their home offices serve as guest bedrooms. They're creating "rec" rooms intended for a multitude of activities, such as homework, reading, music, exercise, crafts, laundry and additional TV-viewing.
"We're trying to accommodate a lot more functions in homes that often weren't built to serve them," says Sarah Susanka, a Raleigh, N.C., architect and interior designer and author of the books Inside the Not So Big House and Not So Big Solutions for Your Home.
Interior designer Kathy Adcock-Smith refers to the trend as "hiving." "People are doing more at home," she says, "they are multitasking with entertainment, food, theater and work."
To make rooms multitask successfully, the first step is to analyze and prioritize the functions you expect to happen in the room. "When you're planning a multipurpose space, think in terms of zones," advises Maxwell Gillingham-Ryan, a New York City interior designer and author of Apartment Therapy: The Eight-Step Home Cure. Then allocate an area – sometimes separate, sometimes overlapping – for each activity, and list the items you'll need to support those activities.
Expand With Color
Color is one of the best ways to manipulate space. Dark paint will appear to lower a ceiling and make walls advance, while light colors will make the ceiling and walls appear to recede. For all-in-one multipurpose living spaces, a cohesive color scheme pulls everything together and creates a feeling of airy spaciousness.
At the same time, color can help designate the separation of one functioning space from another in a large room. "You can break up a singular space with wall color," says Libby Langdon, New York City interior designer, author of Libby Langdon's Small Space Solutions: Stylish Design Ideas for Every Room–Every Budget and expert commentator on Small Space, Big Style. "One end of the room is the living area and one end of the room is a dining area. Whatever end of the room it is, just paint it an accent color. Don't be afraid to be bold." Texture serves a similar purpose. For example, a "work" zone could be painted an energizing lemon yellow and decked out with smooth and glossy furnishings, while the "living" zone could be painted a restful leaf green with cushy textured furnishings that invite relaxation.
A change of color and texture in the flooring is also an effective way to define areas in a single space.
Maximize Light
Whether it's natural or other, the amount of light that's filtered through a large multipurpose room can make it appear larger and can also help delineate the space. Keeping the room visible all the way to every wall is the goal. "I would encourage people to make sure they're lighting all four corners of the room," says Langdon. "If it's not lit, you can't see it, and it's as though it's not even there."
If possible, incorporate a variety of lighting – natural, table lamps, ceiling lights, wall-mounted lights, recessed lighting, under-cabinet lighting – to both provide maximum illumination and to allow the room to serve all the functions it was designed for.
And don't forget that light can be reflected around the room with mirrors, making it appear brighter. But mirrors do more than just reflect light; they also reflect space, making the room look larger. A reflection, especially from an indirect angle, can help create the illusion of yet another room.
Use Versatile Furniture
Look for furnishings that allow rooms to morph from one function to another,"
Susanka advises.
Stacked tables, for instance, can be separated and serve as side tables when you have multiple guests over for a meal. An ottoman can serve as a footrest, coffee table or extra seating. A TV-room sofa can pull out to provide a bed for a houseguest. An armoire can stash a home office, an entertainment center, dishes and heirlooms, or clothes and toys.
"Instead of a coffee table, buy a chest with storage," recommends Hawaii-based interior designer Carol Kozlovich. The chest can also be a side table or even a bench by adding a cushion on top.
Portability is important, too: "Put furniture on casters so you can easily move it around – you need that mobility to make a multiuse space really function," says Langdon.
Incorporate Storage
Good storage is key to keeping a hardworking multipurpose room from becoming a chaotic mess. If square footage is tight, stretch bookcases, cabinets and open shelving to the ceiling to super-size storage space without cutting into the room's footprint. "Any time you can go floor-to-ceiling, you gain so much storage – and visually enlarge the space," Langdon says.
