Hi guys. Soooo got this idea in my head after I was texting my boyfriend/annoyer. He was telling me about everything he used to do in high school, and all this other stuff. And he started telling me about how he was such a d-bag in high school, and how he and his friends were so popular and blah blah blah (freaking jerks) haha. Well anyways here's the story read review, pweease give me ice cream, and check out Dark Blood, and my other story Nightfall. Please and thank you :)
"Aw but baby," Zachary "Zack" Thompson said to his girlfriend Jana. Ooh poor poor Jana. Once again the famous Zack Thompson has cheated on her again. See this is why I don't date. Because of guys like him. So let me give you a little info on Zachary Thompson. He is a senior at Northcrest High School like me. He's tall, dark hair, lovely green eyes, gorgeous face, gorgeous body! Hell! He's the freaking poster child for SEX! Literally. He's slept with oh hmm Carla, Jamie, Alison, Dana, basically every female at Northcrest High who meets his quota. Which would be pretty and can't see past his scheming ways. But hey if they want to open their legs to him then who am I to stop them. Even my best friend, my only friend, Lisa Dragmore (yes that is her actual last name) slept with him. I think it was freshmen year that it happened. Luckily I'm smarter than that.
"No Zack that's like the third time it's happened," Jana cried, tears making mascara run down the sides of her face. Poor idiotic girl. This is the third time he's cheated on her and yet she still chooses to go back to him. Oh well her choice her life.
"Look it won't happen again okay?"
She gazed up at him with her muddy brown eyes. "You promise?"
He smiled. Almost devilishly. "Anything for you babe."
I rolled my eyes as she gave him a quick kiss on the lips then trotted to the girl's restroom to fix her face. I sighed dreading to go in her exact same place since they indeed had been blocking my locker. Zack was standing there watching me silently as I did my combination.
"Staring problem?" I asked as I got my Chemistry book from my locker.
I could feel him smirking. "I can't help but stare, Courtney. You are one sexy girl. You know what they say."
I gave a little laugh and turned toward him. "No but I'm sure your gonna tell me anyway."
"Black hair plus blue eyes equal a killer combo and baby you are a knockout. Just pull that ponytail down, stop dressing like an old librarian and ditch those cruddy sneakers and you'd be the hottest thing here."
Hey! I liked my cruddy sneakers. I sighed and was just about to close my locker door when someone did it for me. It was Taylor. Zack's friend. Ah yet another hot popular boy. Taylor is a fighter. Quick with his fists, and has a temper that makes a redhead seem tame. One word could set him off, literally. He takes the MMA (mixed martial arts) to a whole new level.
"What now?" Zack asked laying a hand on his shoulder.
Taylor shook his blonde hair causing sweat to spray.
"Playing football out on the field. Got done and started talking to Ava, and Josh started giving me some looks-"
"Well duh!" I said in outrage. "Ava is Josh's girlfriend!"
Taylor looked down at me and narrowed his bright gray eyes. They churned, like an oncoming storm. "Who the fuck asked you?"
I slammed my book shut. "I hope you get expelled!"
"Yeah," he shouted back as I walked down the hall, "and I hope your dad doesn't mind that I had your mom bent over my headboard last night."
"He won't!" I screamed with tears down my face. "They're not together anymore!"
Taylor rolled his eyes. "Yeah with a daughter like you I can see why."
I continued to stroll my way down the hall.
"She's such a loser!"
"Look at her clothes."
"Wow I wonder where she shops Lezbos R Us"
"Haha stupid bitch!"
I wouldn't let them get to me. I couldn't. Hell I was the only one left who wasn't charmed by the Man whore, the Jerk, and the Class Clown. I walked into Chemistry and seated myself next to Lisa.
Lisa, is blonde. Uber blonde. I'm talking white trash blonde. No offense to Lisa. She has completely dark brown roots and the rest of her hair is white blonde. She was wearing it in curls today sporting a white tube top, a denim mini skirt, and white platform shoes. I shook my head. Yeah I was starting to believe that I was the only one who wasn't going crazy this year. Even the freshmen, the gay guys, and the overweight people were in love with the Populars. God I felt like I was on an extra on an episode of Degrassi.
"Oh my god! Did you hear?" Lisa started.
"What?" I asked.
"Jeff just told Mr. Blaine that he didn't want to partner with Sylvia because she might break the test tube with her face."
And my favorite last but not least, Jeff. Jeff is the Class Clown. Also popular also a typical sex god like Zack and Taylor. I turned around and looked at the desk behind me. Jeff had his hat on backwards, earphones in jamming out to his Ipod. Light brown curly hair sprouted out from underneath the hat catching bits of sunlight showing off those dazzling highlights in his hair. Lisa followed my gaze and her lips tilted up at the corners. Jeff paused catching our gazes. Lisa waved. He smiled back showing that one dimple in his cheek. His amber eyes were blazing. He got up inching his way closer until he was seated upon the table top in front of Lisa.
"Hey Lisa," he said that smile of his growing deeper.
"Hi Jeff," she gushed. She was practically drooling!
"Wanna be my partner?"
"Sure," she exclaimed twirling a curl around her finger.
"Lisa!" I shrieked. "Your my partner!"
Lisa gave me an annoyed look. "Don't screw this up for me," she whispered.
So it ended Lisa being partnered with Jeff and me doing this project by myself. Ugh. I couldn't have any peace around here. Everything was popular central. You shouldn't have been surprised, Courtney. You know Lisa. Just like with Zack and Taylor: one date, a few drinks, then sex, then she'll come running back to you about how men suck because they'll be tonguing some random girl and pretend like they didn't know Lisa to begin with.
I was eating lunch...by myself. Lisa was eating with Jeff. Feeding him grapes while sitting in his lap. I shook my head and started down at my own plate of food. Suddenly I wasn't so hungry. Why did it feel like I just been double-crossed. Maybe because you were you dummy. I looked back up. Everyone from the Popular's table was staring at me.
Lisa beckoned with one finger for me to come over. I shook my head. She rolled her eyes and started waving her hands excitedly. I sighed and got up. When I got to their table Jana snickered.
"Nice hairdo still sporting things from middle school I see."
"Yeah still bitchy from this morning I see."
She closed her mouth.
"Courtney, leave my girl alone," Zack mumbled.
"Gladly." I turned to Lisa, "was there something you wanted."
"Yeah will you um do our chem project?"
My mouth gaped open. "Are you serious?"
"Well we're going to Taylor's football game tonight, and Jeff and I won't be able to turn it in by tomorrow so I was just wondering-"
"Forget it!" I grabbed my tray and started to walk away.
Lisa scoffed and did her signature hair flip. "No wonder you've gone from C class to P class?"
That stopped me in my tracks. I turned around and narrowed my eyes at her. "Excuse me?"
"You heard me," Lisa said smirking, "You've gone from C to P."
"Don't you mean C to F?" I asked.
"No P for pathetic. Your the most hated bitch in school, and the only reason I'm friends with you is because I feel sorry for you and the fact that you get me a C minus in Chemistry and Advanced Math."
Laughter rang in my ears all around me. Lisa smirked and planted a kiss on Jeff's lips. I took a deep breath and walked out the cafeteria. They were still laughing. They needed a lesson. Maybe if some girl, at least one girl could break them down they wouldn't be such douches.
I smiled ruefully.
"The Man Whore, the Jerk, and the Class Clown prepare to meet the Heart Breaker. Because things are about to heat up."

I bought the Microsoft Lifechat LX-3000 headset just yesterday, but as soon as I plugged it in I found out that the sound quality is so bad. Its full of glitches and fuzz. However the speakers of my laptop work fine.
Someone told me that it was a Windows Vista problem but the Microsoft webpage says that there is no such thing (Microsoft reference).
Any help please?

Nanoelectromechanical (NEM) relays are a promising class of emerging devices that offer zero off-state leakage and behaves like an ideal switch. The zero leakage operation has generated lot of interest in low power logic design using these relays [1],[2]. This paper presents various sequential circuit topologies using NEM relays and analyzes their power, performance, and area tradeoffs. The mechanical delay is inversely proportional to the gate-base voltage Vgb. This paper also presents an integrated voltage doubler-based flip-flop that improves the performance by 2× by overdriving Vgb. An electromechanical model which accounts for the mechanical, electrical, and dispersion effects of the suspended gate relay operating at 1 V with a nominal air gap of 5-10 nm has been developed based on published fabrication results in . Three sequential logic benchmark circuits were designed using NEM relays to verify the correctness of operation of the proposed circuits. This study explores different relay-based latch and flip-flop topologies, proposes fast sequential circuits that can operate at a frequency of 1/2tm (theoretical fastest frequency for NEM relay logic circuits) and further improves speed of sequential circuits by distributed charge boosting.

Reviews for Pet Project for Pets, Inc.
Without the recent help providing food for my indoor/outdoor 8 rescue cats I would have had to take them to a shelter.My fixed income could not cover the expense and have not been able to find pt work.They are dedicated volunteers and help so many struggling to keep
their pets part of their life.I am telling my neighbors who need help too.
Great store, nice people, excellent cause! Please donate or volunteer your time!
I visited the thrift store run by Pet Project for Pets and was delighted. The store had a great selection of merchandise and a really really nice new boutique. I love supporting a non profit that has such a fantastic goal - keeping people and their pets together!!

The Pet Project is a valuable service for both pets and ill people who want to keep them. It enhances both animal and human lives. The terminally ill are often under served and forgotten about in this country (as are the elderly)I think the Pet Project deserves more funding and media attention for the wonderful work they do. They deliver food, provide vaccinations and many other services that keep the pets healthy and safe. The human animal bond is invaluable in many folks lives and for the cost of a few cans of cat food we can make such a difference.

I have a pet rescue, so we get people giving up their pets all the time but not everyone wants to, they just need financial help. The Pet Project has been able to help some of the terminally ill people keep their pets by providing pet food and veterinarian care. For pet lovers not being to have you fur kid is heartbreaking especially when you are going through a devastating time. The Pet Project also places the pets in qualifies home when their owners pass. Their cause has blessed many people and pets all over the country!
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
Sometimes I have been thanked he ill pet owner, after, for connecting them to The Pet Project. Their positive effect on lives goes far beyond my direct experience as other rescuers & people in our local S. Fl. pet community this this group praise!
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Give them more funding so they couple help more people and pets.
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
Knowing the people and the pet can be together.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
Kind and compassionate.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
Expand to help people having hard financial times not just the terminally ill. This would in turn save more pets lives since so many are being given up to high kill shelters in our current economy so millions of healthy pets die for lack of shelter space.
Ways to make it better...
In my dealings with them, I haven't had any problems or been able to see ways to enhance their organization, except money! That is the key for all of our Non-Profits!
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
They have a dedicated people running it, they just need money. Like my dog rescue, one dogs vetting can cost us thousands of dollars! So we do fundraisers every other week to pay for vet care.
One thing I'd also say is that...
This organization helps enhance peoples lives and saves pets lives.

Flash on iPhone: Adobe Clears a Hurdle, But More Remain

Apple has argued for years that the Flash Player's memory and processing requirements were too high and bad for battery life. Flash-based games and web pages are also notably absent from the iPhone as Apple encourages developers to create web features through open Web standards. At Adobe MAX it was announced that the new Flash CS5 Professional Beta would make it easy to create iPhone-ready Flash apps. Adobe engineers, Aditya Bansod and Adrian Ludwig explain how this is done:
"We created a new compiler front end that allowed LLVM to understand ActionScript 3 and used its existing ARM back end to output native ARM assembly code. We call this Ahead of Time (AOT) compilation -- in contrast to the way Adobe Flash Player and Adobe AIR function on the desktop using Just in Time (JIT) compilation. Since we are able to compile ActionScript to ARM ahead of time, the application gets all the performance benefits that the JIT would offer and the license compliance of not requiring a runtime in the final application," blogs Bansod. Ludwig adds, "There's no runtime interpretation, there's no JIT. These are applications that are built according to all of the rules that have been established in the iPhone developer program."
Adobe's announcement of Flash CS5 Beta is making waves in the iPhone and Flash developer communities. Stefan Richter, founder of Muchosmedia said "We are extremely excited about being able to leverage our existing Flash skills for iPhone development to build rich and engaging multi-user applications." Flash CS5 will be a blessing for Flash app designers, who will soon be able to penetrate the iPhone market with relative ease.
Unfortunately for Flash developers, there are still many things that won't work for a Flash app on the iPhone. Dynamic SWFs, embedded HTML content, RTMPE, PixelBender filters, and microphone/video camera access would not work for Flash on the iPhone. Flash apps also won't be able to access the iPhone's dialer or mapping application. From within an exported Flash app, much of the iPhone API is inaccessable because it must bypass the normal communication route with the iPhone. Here's an initial list of iPhone features that will not work with a Flash app. This limits the class of iPhone Flash apps to mostly games and it has made many iPhone users wonder if the new Flash CS5 will really bring anything they haven't already seen to the Apple app store.
Apple will continue to block the use of Flash Player on the iPhone because of performance limitations. However, Adobe is making progress in Flash Player efficiency. Flash Player 10.1 has improvements in memory consumption, battery use, imput modes, and hardware acceleration support. Its new features will include support for multi-touch, gestures, and screen orientation. As Adobe continues to improve the efficiency of Flash Player, it may become harder for Apple to deny the ubiquitous software access to its holy iPhone.
Adobe is now leading the Open Screen Project which brings together close to 50 mobile industry leaders for the purpose of providing a consistent runtime environment across various mobile devices. The initiative, which does not include Apple, will attempt to solve issues with web browsing and standalone applications on a wide range of devices. The project also aims to remove barriers to publishing content and applications accross multiple "screens".
The Adobe initiative may put pressure on Apple to remove development barriers in the future if consumers want more software variety in their mobile devices. At Adobe MAX, the company's executives created a "myth-busters" parody video intended to be a humorous jab at Apple's ban of Flash on the iPhone. In the video, the actors claim only two devices in the world don't support Flash: an old rotary-dial telephone, and the Apple iPhone.

Pondering Urban Authenticity: A look at the new book "Naked City"
"If you seek authenticity for authenticity's sake you are no longer authentic."
– Jean-Paul Sartre
As the United States shifted from a manufacturing to a knowledge-based economy during the latter half of the 20th Century, former industrial cities suffered population losses to the suburbs and post-WWII boomtowns. Some of these cities were able to stay afloat while others went into permanent decline never to fully recover. Most experienced an increase in crime and a decrease in quality-of-life. read more »
SPECIAL REPORT: Metropolitan Area Migration Mirrors Housing Affordability
On schedule, the annual ritual occurred last week in which the Census Bureau releases population and migration estimates and the press announces that people are no longer moving to the Sun Belt. The coverage by The Wall Street Journal was typical of the media bias, with a headline "Sun Belt Loses its Shine." In fact, the story is more complicated – and more revealing about future trends.
Domestic Migration Tracks Housing Affordability: There have been changes in domestic migration (people moving from one part of the country to another) trends in the last few years, but the principal association is with housing affordability. read more »

Forced March To The Cities
California is in trouble: Unemployment is over 13%, the state is broke and hundreds of thousands of people, many of them middle-class families, are streaming for the exits. But to some politicians, like Sen. Alan Lowenthal, the real challenge for California "progressives" is not to fix the economy but to reengineer the way people live. read more »
The Myth of the Strong Center
At the height of the foreclosure crisis the problems experienced by some so-called "sprawl" markets, like Phoenix and San-Bernardino-Riverside, led some observers to see the largest price declines as largely confined to outer ring suburbs. Some analysts who had long been predicting (even hoping for) the demise of the suburbs skipped right over analysis to concoct theories not supported by the data. The mythology was further enhanced by the notion – never proved – that high gas prices were forcing home buyers closer to the urban core. read more »
Eminent Domain as Central Planning
Free markets are out of vogue. The unfortunate lesson that policymakers have learned over the past two years is that a big, brainy government that supposedly creates jobs is superior to irrational, faceless markets that just create catastrophic errors. So Washington has seized on the financial and economic crises to enlarge its role in managing the economy—controlling the insurance giant AIG, for example, and trying to maintain high housing prices through tax credits and "mortgage modification" programs. read more »
"A" is for Avenue
Pity poor Matamoras, PA, population 2,600, located on the Delaware River where Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey all come together. The town has only two named streets: Delaware Drive (parallel to the river), and Pennsylvania Ave. (perpendicular).
Other streets parallel to the river are numbered: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and so on, up to 10th. The avenues, perpendicular to the river, start with Avenue A in the north, and continue to Avenue S, in the south. Pennsylvania Ave., the main drag, is between "K" and "L".

Who's Dependent on Cars? Try Mass Transit
The Smart Growth movement has long demonstrated a keen understanding of the importance of rhetoric. Terms like livability, transportation choice, and even "smart growth" enable advocates to argue by assertion rather than by evidence. Smart Growth rhetoric thrives in a political culture that rewards the clever catchphrase over drab data analysis, but often fails to identify the risks for cities inherent in their war against "auto-dependency" and promotion of large-scale mass transit to boost the "sustainability" of communities. read more »

Since the 2006 elections – and even more so after 2008 – blue-state politicians have enjoyed a monopoly of power unprecedented in recent history. Hardcore blue staters control virtually every major Congressional committee, as well as the House Speakership and the White House. Yet they still have proved incapable of reversing the demographic and economic decline in the nation's most "progressive" cities and states. read more »
Why New York City Needs a New Economic Strategy
When Michael Bloomberg stood on the steps of City Hall last week to be sworn in for a third term as New York City's mayor, he spoke in upbeat terms about the challenges ahead. The situation, however, is far more difficult than he portrays it. American financial power has shifted from New York to Washington, while global clout moves toward Singapore, Hong Kong, and Shanghai. Even if the local economy rebounds, the traditional media industries that employ many of Bloomberg's influential constituents likely will continue to decline. read more »

Product Description
Product Description
From England to Australia in a World War I Bomber..."Vimy I, cleared to land," radioed the control tower. "Welcome back to Darwin after all these years." With those words, the dream of Peter McMillan, an American, and Lang Kidby, an Australian, was realized: to recreate a 1919 flight from England to Australia that showed the feasibility of long distance air travel. This journey chronicles this record-breaking flight that marked the beginning of commercial aviation. Resurrecting original blueprints, McMillan and Kidby built a World War I era Vickers Vimy biplane bomber with open cockpit and cotton-covered wings, fitting it with modern engines and navigation gear. You'll witness the joy of cruising over the Taj Mahal and the aftermath of a crash landing on Sumatra. This story interweaves the 1919 and 1994 adventures, separated by 75 years but united in a common spirit of daring in THE GREATEST FLIGHT.
Flying a Vimy biplane from England to Australia was a bold adventure in 1919, but it turns out it was just as exciting in 1994. Follow Peter McMillan and Lang Kidby as they re-create the Ross brothers' historic journey in The Greatest Flight from National Geographic. Using the original blueprints, their team reassembled an exact replica of the Vickers Vimy, which was used to demonstrate the feasibility of long-distance air travel and turned the industry away from war and toward commercial flight. The trip is spectacular, with incredible views of the Great Pyramids, the Taj Mahal, and the lush rain forests of the South Pacific, although there is frustration at every turn at the hands of bureaucrats, bad weather, and even a frightening crash landing in Sumatra. Including documentary footage of the first voyage and first-rate aerial photography of the reenactment, the producers have created an inspirational program that shows how anyone's dreams can be made manifest through hard work, perseverance, and a bit of good luck. --Rob Lightner

Everyone who has visited Digg knows that when you click the headline of an article that it takes you directly to the source.
My website I would like to link consumers to products that are on offer/sale etc.
I am need direction on modifying the Headline of each post so that it links to the product. I would also like direction on modifying the RSS feed, so that too goes straight to the product.
I think that I would be looking at integrating a new input field and then coding that into the database and php.
Thanks in advance.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Apr 01st, 2005
Running Time: 122
Company: Rude Brittania
Cast: Rachel Sykes, Stella (I), Sarah Hott, Donna Marie, Angel Long, Bev Cocks, Rachel Collin, Nadia (I), Karla
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Pro-Am
Stock with other British or foreign titles.
British amateurs - and a couple of pros - run the gamut in age and appeal in a par for the course assemblage of hardcore scenes.
Angel Long performs a girl/girl with Rachel Sykes. Bev Cocks gets fucked by a dude. But the most genuinely intriguing scene features an older gal named Sarah Hott. Sarah seems to be the rudest of all the girls in this Rude Brittania production. She's an eager, cock-hungry beaver and is breathless throughout her scene.
Some other OK scenes will likely leave the rest of these amateur girls in the amateur realm.

Very happy with the service i have received from this doctor's office
I have four children ranging in age from 8 to 18. They have been patients of Dr. McCrory for 5 years. I have never had a problem getting a sick appointment when needed (sometimes with another doctor or the nurse practitioner but that's OK). Well visits are thorough and Dr. McCrory interacts well with the kids. She broaches tough subjects (behavior, sex, drugs,etc.) at the visits with the older ones. We had one child hospitalized with a serious illness and were happy with Dr. McCrory's coordination of care in the hospital. The offices are clean and the staff is pleasant. I would consider follow-up to be very good considering they call me to see if labs have been done, etc. As for laptops, I'm happy the doctor uses one during the visit and I don't think she ignores patients because of it. I have no complaints and would highly recommend Dr. McCrory and her staff.
We choose Dr. McCrory because of a reference from a coworker. To make a long story short... She misdiagnosed my daughter, which gave her a rash and headache. She would not treat me with respect because I looked young. Did not listen to me as I described my daughters reactions to shots. We had to talk to our family physician who advised us on the reactios, which drastically improved her reactions. Dr. McCrory disagreed with the views of the doctor. As you can guess we changed physicians.
DR. McCrory has very bad bedside manner. She is too busy starring at her laptop to actually pay any attention to your child. She probably only looks up and makes eye contact twice during the whole appointment! Her on call staff is very rude and you better hope that you don't get sick or get the flu over the weekend because they WILL NOT do anything for you over the phone! Our whole famiy got sick over the weekend with the flu and went to a clinic. The Dr said that I needed to call my peditrician and get them to see my 2 small children or atleast call something in to treat them until Monday. We called, and it took 2 hrs for the on call nurse to return our call, then she was rude and said she would not do anything. The Flu turned to pneumonia with my son and we took him to our family Dr and got him treated!! When my husband took my daughter in Monday and told Dr. McCrory what happened to my son, she said "oh, hope he's doing better" and kept starring at her laptop! Needless to say, we have changed Doctors!!

Abortion opponents seek info on clinicAugust 24,2013Abortion foes
seek info on clinic
BURLINGTON Six Vermont women want Planned Parenthood of Northern New England to provide information about people working at a Burlington clinic as well as the number of abortions performed at the facility and other information.
The lawyer for the women says he needs the information to establish that Planned Parenthood is indeed a reproductive health care facility, even though no one is disputing that claim.
The request for information is part of a lawsuit filed against the city of Burlington over whether an ordinance can prohibit abortion opponents from protesting less than 35 feet from clinics. They claim the ordinance is being enforced more at Planned Parenthood than other facilities.
Planned Parenthood attorney Claudine Safar said the information request was a fishing expedition.MORE IN Vermont NewsPHILADELPHIA Vermonts delegation to the Democratic National Convention took center stage...

I have a table (in Oracle 9 and up) where I need to find all entries for a given day using Hibernate. The entries have timestamps (with data type 'date'). Some of the entries have a time, others only have a date. This can not be changed, as this is the output of other applications which I can not change. In SQL I would write something along the lines of
SELECT * FROM table WHERE trim(table.date) = to_date('11.06.2009')
to get all entries for the date I am looking for. I was wondering how I can get Hibernate to do this using HQL. I know I can use SQL-queries in Hibernate, but this seems to be less clean. Is there a way to do this? If possible, this way should also work on non-oracle databases where timestamp would be the data type.

High school softball: Salem Hills Skyhawks smack Provo, soar into second straight 4A final
"We are not an extremely fast team, so it was a risk to steal bases at the beginning. But it paid off. And I didn't think that they would expect it, so took their catcher by surprise and frazzled them and gave us some momentum at the beginning.
"We didn't hit the ball extremely well at the beginning of the game," Kinghorn said, "and so we needed to manufacture runs somehow. I knew that Kirtlyn would have a pretty good game. It was a very weird game all around."
Salem Hills senior catcher Kaylee Simons walked three times, knocked in three runs and scored twice, and then she donned her cap and gown for an impromptu graduation ceremony at home plate following the Skyhawks' victory.
Abbie Tuttle had three hits, a pair of RBIs and scored four runs, while Amelia Weight had a pair of singles and two more RBIs and Tiffany Madson had two more hits and crossed home plate three times to help put Salem Hills one win away from the state championship.
"What I've learned with this group of girls is that I just try not to overcoach them," Kinghorn said. "I feel like a lot of times coaches say too much and then it kind of freaks people out. And we're a young team and I kind of like our ignorance, if that's the right word. You start putting tons of pressure on them — 'You lose this game and you've got to play three tomorrow, and Kirtlyn can't pitch every game' — ... and it starts to work 'em up.
"So basically I just treated it like a normal game, and that's the beauty of softball is that it doesn't change — you have to run; you have to throw; you have to catch. As long as we control what we can control, I think we'll be successful. I'm not a very high-pressure person; I'm kind of a laid-back person. We know we can beat any team here, we know we can, and I think that confidence is good. And I'll tell you what: Getting that many runs in the last inning, I think, was a huge boost for our bats that struggled on and off over the year.
"My heart breaks for Taylor (Allman). I know she was hurting; she's pitched a lot this week," the Skyhawks' coach said. "The softy in me, my heart hurts for her that we crushed her, and I think everybody was surprised that we did because we haven't done it all year."

I have a question regarding archives page. I am trying to display the content on the archive page only in grid format with 2 or 3 columns.
I tried wrapping the 'if have post stuff' with a div and adding a css to the style.css file.
On the archive page I have:
<div class="new-wrapper">
…the post code…
On the style.css I added:
.new-wrapper { float: left; width: 200px; height: 200px; margin: 0px 20px 20px 0px; }
The problem is this is creating just one columns and I would like to have 2 or 3 columns.
Can you please advise on what to do in order to display the posts in the achive page only in grid format with 2 or 3 columns?
Thank you so much in advance.

Best Stuff on Earth?
By JoshuaL

About Me Average Joe, Health Conscious
How is this made from the best stuff on earth when aspartame is in it? You can taste it immediately creating a very unpleasant aftertaste.

Not like bottled snapple
By Rm85040

About Me Average Joe
My friend gave me a few because she didnt like them. I completely understand why! This tea tastes nothing like the snapple you buy at the store. It tastes like powdered artificial tea.

Really like peach iced tea
By just me
from Ohio
Love peach iced tea. Love bottled Snapple peach iced tea. Why then, would they put aspartame in the regular K-cup? I brewed one cup, took one sip, and threw the cup and 21 K-cups away.

Delicious Treat
By Van
from Laurel, MD
About Me Health Conscious, Socially/Environmentally Conscious, Tea drinker
I use this tea whenever I need a break from stress. I love it hot and this is how I enjoy it most of the time. It is deliciously refreshing over ice and is flavorful even as the ice melts. I am a fan of bottled Snapple tea and glad to find the k-cups were just as good.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Tried to be specific with the title.
I notice on my contact form there is a lot of space between options.
Your Name

when I would rather it be more like:

I can't figure out how to adjust spacing? I didn't like how everything was bunched to the left with no space, but I would deal with that if I could adjust the space between options. The field is very long now and takes up more space than necessary. If I could reduce the space, and bring everything up, it would tighten up.
I hope I'm making sense.

Official mod tools for Fallout 4 haven't arrived yet, but that hasn't stopped creative modders from reshaping Bethesda's latest RPG. Here are the best mods we've seen so far, and we'll be updating these pages as more mods arrive.
First, a few words of warning. Some of the utilities used to create these mods, like FO4edit and FalloutSnip, have been linked to corrupted saved games and crashes. Mods can also become disabled when the game receives official patches. In other other words, be very careful modding Fallout 4, and read all of the instructions on the mod pages carefully before installing.
Let's start with some settling and crafting mods, then move on to visual tweaks, gameplay enhancements, and finally tools and utilities. For more, check out our list of Fallout 4 console commands as well.
Decorating your settlement can be irksome, and even after carefully placing loot items on shelves or tables they can and probably will be knocked over later by some clumsy settler or companion (or you). This mod not only makes placement of items easier (loot items are now movable just like static objects when using the workshop menu), but lets you lock them in place so they can't be toppled. Perfect.
Robot Home Defence
You can already craft turrets, guns, and generators, so why not build your own robots? With this mod and a few ranks in your Robotic Expert perk, now you can. Craft Protectrons, Securitrons, Assaultrons, and more to defend your settlements. They don't count toward your population cap, so you can build as many as you like, and you can even take them along on your adventures.
Spring Cleaning
Even when you've scrapped every piece of junk in your settlement, it still pretty much looks like a dump, right? That's because there's all sorts of things you can't remove: mounds of dirt, piles of rubble, and weeds poking through concrete. Spring Cleaning makes all those eyesores removable, letting you really tidy up your town.
Any Mod Any Weapon
If you want to take wasteland warfare to a whole new level, this mod will let you build the weapon of your fever dreams. It allows you to put any weapon attachment on any weapon, so you can electrify a triple-barreled minigun, splice a Fat Man onto an alien laser pistol, or build just about any Frankenstein-esque weapon you can imagine. The video above by Tyrannicon shows you just a few of the possibilities.
Higher Settlement Budget
The size of your Fallout 4 settlements is pretty severely restricted: they can only get so big and use so many objects. That stinks, though, if you're building a big 'ol base and suddenly have to stop. The Higher Settlement Budget mod fixes this, though keep in mind adding more object may lessen performance or even crash your game.
Craftable Ammunition
You can build a lot at your workstations, everything from weapon mods to medical items to grenades. Why not ammo? This mod lets you craft every single type of ammo in the game at your chemistry stations: shotgun shells, flares, mini nukes, flamer fuel, fusion cells... you name it, you can craft it (unless you're naming made-up ammo that doesn't exist, like moon-piercing tomato bullets). You'll still need higher level Gun Nut, Science, and Demolition perks to be able to craft the really powerful stuff.
Settlement Supplies Expanded
This mod was recently reworked (it originally used FalloutSnip) to lessen the chances of save corruption or crashes. It adds a ton of new items for inclusion in your settlements, like cars and military vehicles, furniture and decorations, and all sorts of other things that probably should have been available to builders in the first place.
In the same vein, the Homemaker mod gives you more options for your settlements. It includes two new plantable crops, more walls and fences, 30 new types of lights, and new containers like ammo boxes and lockers. You can even use meat bags, if you like storing your extra supplies in bags of meat. Some do.
Armorsmith Extended
The hell with road leathers, why can't I strap pieces of armor on over my nice natty suit? In addition to being able to wear any outfit under your armor, you can also wear hats and helmets with gasmasks, you can add ballistic weaves to hats, and even craft new outfits altogether. This mod was created with FO4Edit.
Working Food Planters
There's a settlement in Fallout 4 where you'll find robots tending to a garden. Unlike the other settlements, their crops aren't scattered on the ground but are organized nearly in planters. This mod lets you build planters in all of your other settlements, too. Your reaction to this is either "Uh, who cares?" or "Oh my gosh I absolutely, totally need this."
Place in Red
If you've been building settlements, you've no doubt been gnashing your teeth from time to time when pieces don't quite fit together. "Why don't junk fences snap together like walls?" you've howled into the uncaring sky. This should help! It lets you fudge the edges of things together, and instead of the red warning glow you'll be allowed to actually place them there. Note: this is not exactly a mod, but a file for Cheat Engine, which you'd need to download to get it to work.
Continue to the next page for some visual tweaks!

In early 2012, bassist/producer Khari Cabral (aka Khari Simmons) stepped away from Jiva, the band he founded in the late 1990s, and released his first solo collection of music, Clementine Sun; and soul music fans were glad that he did. The lush, melodic, bossa nova-tinged album was produced and arranged by Cabral, but was mixed by the international icon Bluey of the group Incognito and features vocals from a lineup of heavyweight singers, including Sabrina Malheiros, Monday Michiru, and Atlanta's own India.Arie, among others. What this means for the future of Jiva is unknown, but in the meantime, we suggest folks dive deep in the sounds of Clementine Sun - there's lots to enjoy.

New plans for helping to reduce an already declining crime rate will be unveiled at Pine Bluff Mayor Debe Hollingsworth's monthly town hall meeting Monday at the Pine Bluff Convention Center. The event will start at 5:30 p.m.
Hollingsworth said Friday that interim Police Chief Jeff Hubanks will identify locations for new police department substations. Capt. Kelvin Hadley will speak on an enhanced bike patrol program. Other proposed steps to help cut crime will also be addressed, the mayor said, and Hubanks and Hadley will be available to answer questions from the public.
"I think people will be pleased to learn about what is being planned," Hollingsworth said, "and we're hoping to receive some public input as well."
Also on the agenda is a recognition program for the four youths — Akelia Terrill Austin, Eddie Lee Bell, Madre Collins and Skylar Webb — who participated in the first mayor-for-a-day program in which they shadowed Hollingsworth and worked with her and her professional staff.
Other applicants for the program included Carl Johnson II, Darsalyn Hampton, Mar'Tavius Proctor, Yaronda Thomas, Devon Katoyama, Stephanie Williams, Bailey Marie Byrd, QuinDarius Chubb, Jordan A. Johnson, Brandy Brown, Garrison Wimberly, Carl Howard Nelson Jr., Edward Hudson III, Kaleb Humphrey, Keith James III, Travon Kelly, Tyree Lashaun Roberson, Brandon Farver, Takeiya Williams, Renee Little and Corinthia Dorn.
"I'm proud of this first group and look forward to this program becoming even bigger and better," the mayor said.
Also on hand will be local boxer Donald Griffin, who is joining the police department.
City council members are invited to participate in the meeting along with the city's department heads, who will receive public comments and questions.

Rio Sees More Mergers in Australian Iron Ore Sector
Rio Tinto Group, the world's third-largest mining company, expects more mergers and acquisitions in the Australian iron ore sector as China seeks to secure supplies of the steelmaking material.
Australian companies can't finance all the iron ore projects by themselves and need external funds to develop, Sam Walsh, Rio's iron ore chief executive officer, said at a briefing in Perth today.
The Australian government's decision last week to cut a planned tax on mining profits may trigger more takeovers of resource companies. China, the world's largest buyer of iron ore, posted economic growth of 11.9 percent in the first quarter, the fastest pace in almost three years.
"Merger and acquisition activity should now be more viable as this move by the government should alleviate some of the concerns about the longer term impact on investment by overseas interests," Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu partner Gordon Thring said in an e-mailed statement today.
Rio shares fell 1.8 percent in Sydney trading to A$64.05 at 11:47 a.m. on the Australian stock exchange.
Yesterday, Thailand's Banpu Pcl agreed to buy the rest of Centennial Coal Co. for A$2 billion ($1.7 billion), and Singapore-based Wilmar International Ltd. said it will buy CSR Ltd.'s sugar unit for A$1.75 billion.
Rio is studying expanding its iron ore production to 330 million metric tons a year, Walsh said. Demand is strong and will continue growing driven by emerging nations, he said.
The London-based company is awaiting for approvals from the European Union, China, Japan and Australia for its proposed plan to combine its iron ore assets with BHP Billiton Ltd. in Western Australia's Pilbara region and is working through regulatory processes, Walsh said.

I would like to suggest an additional feature for "contact form 7", it would be nice if you can include fields in additional settings box.
For example, I have the following code set in additional settings box:
on_sent_ok: "var data = {}; data['_mmf'] = '1'; data['_mmf_is_ajax_call'] = '1'; data['_mmf_unit_tag'] = 'mmf-f1-p55-o1'; data['name-cnt'] = '[name-cnt]'; data['page_post_id'] = '55'; data['page_post_title'] = 'Callback Form'; data['tel-cnt'] = '[tel-cnt]'; jQuery.post('http://www.surepassdrivingschool.com/#mmf-f1-p55-o1', data );"
And I want [name-cnt] and [tel-cnt] to be replaced with the actual values entered by users in these fields.
Of course I can modify the code and inject "replace" function, but it would be much better if this feature is built-in.

But in pressing the issue, he left himself open for a counter that dropped him with less than 30 seconds remaining, and was subsequently dropped against just before the final bell.
How would you score the round?Would you place greater emphasis on the two kd's and call it 10-7, or call it a 10-8 round because Hassan did much better worth throughout ninety percent of the round...?
(I went with the latter option, but I wanted to hear you take and rationale for the score)
Its a good question. Clean punching isn't EVERYTHING. N'Dam had clean punching going for him in that round but Quillin had ring generalship, some clean punching of his own and 2 knockdowns. Quillin might have been outlanded in the round but was he dominated? I'm going 10-7.

I don't think there is enough info here.. who is being more aggressive? Who's style is more effective in the round? Sounds like a round for Fighter A just based on what you said but there are a bunch of other things going on that need to be taken into consideration.

The furlough day is on top of four days of pay already taken from teachers and four furlough days given to other employees. To compensate, teachers will be allowed to work 15 minutes less each day.
The news comes a week after Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue detailed his plans to balance the states budget in wake of a projected $900 million shortfall. He announced that he would withhold 3 percent from the states education funding formula and the equivalent of three furlough days for all state-funded school employees.
This morning, the Georgia Board of Education voted to waive its requirement that teachers and similar certified staff members work 190 days, allowing local school systems the flexibility to furlough these workers.
The governors cuts added to Richmond Countys existing $1.1 million shortfall, the result of the school board holding the line on taxes and voting not to shift the burden to property owners.
Other measures planned to offset the shortfall include: Selling the old Hornsby and Sue Reynolds elementary schools; increasing class size for early intervention programs; and pulling $4.4 million from reserves.
Taking money from the reserve fund leaves the fund dangerously low, Dr. Bedden said. It will be less than a months payroll.
Dr. Bedden said all of the cuts will directly affect instruction and employees, although it was his top concern to avoid impacting these areas as much as possible. The superintendent encouraged the community to get involved in Richmond County education by volunteering or contributing financially to a foundation established through the Augusta Metro Chamber of Commerce.
Dr. Bedden has avoided laying anyone off through the latest round of cuts, saying its crucial for the economy to come out of a recession. The school systems 5,000 employees need to keep working, earning a paycheck and contributing to the economy.
Since becoming superintendent less than two years ago, he has now cut $60 million from the budget. Since last year, the budget has been reduced 12 percent, or $32 million.
I want to make no mistake. This will hurt, Dr. Bedden said.

Drought, What Drought? – Front Yard Waterfall, Pacific Avenue, Pacific Heights 94115 – Glug Glug GlugThursday, May 7th, 2015
Facebook Follies: Our San Francisco Department of the Environment is "SF Environment" is "Powered by Wishpond Technologies?"Tuesday, April 7th, 2015
Work with me here – check out this Facebook page from "SF Environment – Government Organization."
Can you tell if this entity is part of SFGov? It's a little hard.
Now, go down to the bottom to see a disclaimer about how FaceBook aint responsible for nothing, which is fair enough, but do you notice a typo in the first sentence? And "your information" isn't going to SFGov, it's actually going to "Wishpond Technologies?"
This promotion is in no way sponsored, endorsed or administered by, or associated with, Facebook. You understand that you are providing your information to Wishpond Technologies and Company and not to Facebook. By participating in this promotion you agree to a complete release of Facebook from any claims. Powered by Wishpond
The bad grammar, from people who want "your information," it generally suggests a scam, non?
So then you hop on over to the San Francisco Department of the Environment website to see it's a .org instead of a .gov? (I mean, even SFGov.org has "gov" in there somewhere.) Are you Environment people embarased to be a gov?)
Anyway, here at the official home page is where we see that SFE is in fact "A DEPARTMENT OF THE CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO."
So first up, who runs it? IDK. Why do we need it? IDK. What has it ever done? IDK
So, second up, I think the San Francisco Department of the Environment shouldn't be afraid to call itself the San Francisco Department of the Environment.
And, third up, it appears that any kind of participation in this "private public partnership" beautification program, like thumbs-upping a photo, will garner you, the Gentle Reader, a sales call from Wishpond Technologies and Company, whatever that is.
So, Reader beware.
And to you all, SF Environment, I'm only just saying.
With love, from .com to .gov or gov.org or org.gov or whatever you people are calling yourselves these days.

A Parkside Mystery in the Farthest Reaches of San Francisco County: Is This a Front Yard or a Taxi Yard?Tuesday, June 3rd, 2014
The San Francisco Equivalent of Parking on the Lawn: Putting the Park Back Into the ParksideFriday, May 30th, 2014
In the wild, wild west part of San Francisco County, people have been paving over their front yards for parking space.
Click to expand
Now is this kind of thing kosher?
Sometimes not.
To wit:
"It's illegal to pave over your yard, but it's pretty widely ignored, and people do it with impunity."
The process of getting homeowners to comply is "complaint driven," which means nobody has the will to enforce Da Law Out West, oh well.
Introducing the "Front Yard Ambassadors Program" – All Stick, No Carrot – Will It "Transform" the Sunset District?Wednesday, October 23rd, 2013
Here's the thing. "Planners" back in the day had no freaking idea how many cars would populate the Sunset District.
They also had no idea how much public transit in the West Bay would degrade over the decades.
So it's hard to park way out there.
So people improperly pave over their front yards for more "driveway" parking, don't ask don't tell.
Anyway, here's what appointed Supervisor Katy Tang has for Fog Country – it's the FYAP!
But if you participate, it'll cost you $245 and you'll have to listen to what SFGov tells you to do.
This is the kind of thing that will end up pissing off some of the people living out there.
This is a program for the sake of having a program. It will "transform" nothing. And it will not "change" the "pedestrian experience." Sorry.
But, if you want to try this out, by all means:
"The Front Yard Ambassadors Program gives Sunset District residents the opportunity transform their front yards into vibrant, ecologically friendly and easy to maintain spaces in order to accomplish the following:
- Change the pedestrian experience and demonstrate neighborhood pride
- Provide permeable surface to take pressure off our combined sewer system and recharge our underground aquifer
- Educate the community about what plant species are suited to our microclimate
- Build relationships with neighbors and encourage the community to work together
Our Partners & Sidewalk Landscaping
Sidewalk landscaping programs exist in several organizations. To learn more about why increasing green space and permeable surfaces is important in San Francisco, visit the websites of our partners in the Front Yard Ambassadors Program below:

Front Yard Ambassadors Program Fact Sheet
How do I apply?
Apply by submitting an application, answers to the supplemental questionnaire and photos of
your front yard. You must ensure that a minimum of five residences on your block also submit
an application to be considered for the program. The application can be found on our website at
www.sfbos.org/tang under the "Front Yard Ambassadors Program" tab.
What is the cost?
Residents chosen for the program will pay a nominal permit fee, depending on how many
residents apply. Permit fees can range from $182 – $245.
How do I get my neighbors to participate?
This is a great time to meet your neighbors! Knock on their door and find out if they are
interested. You must have a minimum of five neighbors on your block to apply.
Who maintains the yard after installation?
Program participants will sign a Letter of Agreement that they will maintain the yard as long as
they reside at their current address. We hope that neighbors will get together for a work day each
year to help each other. Additional support will be provided by Friends of the Urban Forest.
What types of plants and landscaping will be installed?
Once chosen, residents will be able to sit down with professional landscape architects to discuss
their ideas. We have included photos of yards in the Sunset on our webpage for inspiration at
www.sfbos.org/tang. All landscaping will be low maintenance, drought tolerant, and able to live
in our coastal conditions.
Other questions can be directed to our office at (415) 554-7460.
OMG, the BIggest Mountain Bike I've Ever Seen – It's the "DirtySixer" with Wheels One Yard Tall – "Lebron: Call Us"Wednesday, May 8th, 2013
Have you seen Lebron James on a Cannondale? It's not pretty.
So, to solve that kind of problem, here comes The DirtySixer MTB with 36 inch tires.
There it is, parked at Erin Sherbert's favorite bike rack. Go ahead, click the link. This shot shows the very same rack, but look how different the bikes' tires are:
Click to expand
Looking at this thing freaked, me, out.
Now myself, I'm 6 foot 1 and a ton of fun so you'd figure one of these rigs would be great for me. But no, I'm not even close to qualifying for the DirtySixer club. You gotta be like 6 foot 5 or taller to fit proper.
Perhaps District Eight Supervisor Scott Wiener could use one of these rides for Bike To Work Day 2013 tomorrow? Why not?
Oh, the expense, what must be the crushing expense. I can only imagine what the MSRP is. That's real titanium for the frame, BTW.
Now myself, I'll have to make do with the MTBs sold for $200-something at the Marin Bikes Warehouse at 7th and Folsom in SoMA. (Here's me on Fulton Street in 1st gear: Man, why can't 1st gear be lower? And here's me in the Broadway Tunnel eastbound (scary scary): Man, why can't 21st gear be higher? Srsly. It's like I'm being punished by Shimano for not spending enough or something.)
Anyway, contact Dave French if you're interested.

College Hunks Featured Article: Inc Magazine
Nick Friedman had an idea.
Suppose you could take the natural high spirits that compel college students to kidnap one another's team mascots and toilet-paper rival frat houses and harness it for good?
Friedman is president of College Hunks Hauling Junk, a $3 million franchiser headquartered in Tampa. The company's 47 franchise locations (updated Feb 2013) employ mostly college students and recent grads; even about half of the franchise owners are in their 20s.
Friedman motivates employees almost exclusively through internal competition. Franchises and individuals vie for bragging rights and (generally modest) monetary rewards in contests over total revenue, average job sizes, customer loyalty, disposal costs, and a long list of other performance measures.
"A person's day-to-day tasks don't necessarily connect to external competition," says Friedman, explaining this we-have-met-the-enemy-and-he-is-us approach.
"Internal competition helps them be more productive at what they are accountable for. And ultimately, that puts the company in a better position to win market share."
Friendly rivalry, of course, is endemic to college life, and the company's early employees translated their frat-war sensibilities to the job. Shortly after College Hunks's launch in 2005, haulers from its Virginia branch went out to their truck one morning and found it lathered in shaving cream and draped with a University of Maryland flag.
They retaliated with a dead fish in the Maryland branch's truck.
Rather than reprimand the offenders, Friedman and CEO Omar Soliman fanned the flames. "We wanted to harness that competitive, prankster enthusiasm and channel it for good," says Friedman. "So we challenged the two locations: Who can haul the most junk by summer?"
He offered a Bahamas vacation to the winning team. Maryland triumphed, and a culture was born.
The founders soon dispensed with volume of junk collected in favor of key performance indicators as the bases for contests. They developed a dashboard — available to the entire company over an intranet — and created competitions around the numbers tracked there.
Most employees check the dashboard every day for their own and rivals' latest standings. To keep things fresh, Friedman and Soliman periodically add new contests. In the latest, franchises vie to see which can donate or recycle the most junk, thus burnishing College Hunks's green cred while reducing landfill costs.

I really wanted a good OT but I just dont see one if the big 3 are gone. I am concerned about Anthony Davis. Would like to see Iupati play OG for us, he would be the only other player Id consider at 17 along with Dez Bryant. If Dez Bryant is there at 17, I would take him. I just dont see a quality RT being available for us.
If we take Davis at 17 I think there is upside, but he just seems like a soft and weak minded player. Imagine what happens when gets 1st RD money.

The design was a concept for a client. Since I'm now working on a new concept for my client, I can use this one and alter it, making it a rustic, vintage WP theme instead.
