I am using an origami premium child theme (because it was recommended, although I have only created the style.css file with no alterations, all changes have been made through dashboard settings which affect the original files...?...., anyway) and am experiencing the following problem.
While on PC (IE8 and chrome) everything works fine ( Safari doesn't show the header image!!!...) on my mobile device (iPad) the drop down feature of the menu does not work. To be more specific, it works when I'm logged in but not when I visit the site as an unregistered user. (Safari on iPad does show the header image...?!?!!!) frustrating...
Are there any suggestions?

Here I have this file in Windows:
But isn't 62,563 bytes 62.6 KB?
Here I have this file in Windows:
But isn't 62,563 bytes 62.6 KB?
62,563 bytes are 61.0966797 kibibytes. The kibi prefix means that the base for calculation is 1024, bi standing for "binary" because 2^10 = 1024. It's only one of the binary prefixes, others being mebi or gibi.
A kilobyte on the other hand is 1000 bytes, using the classic SI prefixes that you know from kilometers and kilograms. It's using the decimal base, 10^3 = 1000, so Google is actually right. If you had googled for the same amount in kibibytes, you'd have gotten the right answer in computing terminology.
It's really important to make the distinction between kilo and kibi these days, and actually, Windows should report it as "61 KiB" to be absolutely precise. This is the IEC convention for making the distinction easier.
That being said, there's still a lot of ambiguity these days, where hard drive sizes are typically reported in binary units (but not always explicitly), and connection speeds are given in SI units.
Yeah, think of google as the Mad Hatter. You have to ask the right question. Or perhaps an Elf: Sometimes your answer will be both yes and no.
1KB = 1024 bytes. Thus:
As a shortcut many people and systems treat a KB as 1000 since Kilo is the SI prefix for 1000. Computer scientists however use the prefix for 2^10 which is 1024.
Most computer-related numbers use binary prefixes, in contrast to SI system which uses decimal prefixes. It means that:
That's respectively 1000 grams and 1024 bytes.
Not everything computer-related is based on binary prefixes, though, and this inconsistency often leads to misunderstandings. This Wikipedia page describes what prefixes are used for measuring different things.
One extreme case is bandwidth. It's typically using binary prefixes when expressed in bytes per second and decimal prefixes when expressed in bits per second. So this sentence is true:
But this one is false:

Yes, you are essentialy right. But stats cant reflect all things that happens in a match. They can reflect how a player plays only two minutes, but makes two blocks or two baskets that turn a lossing...
Where in the stats are reflected the amount of attack fouls caused RR? What about considering them steals
How do you explain this stats then, for example:

Ricky is beggining to be as fast as before, and last two or three matchs he has been able to do more things. He is recovering, i think.
uff AV is an horriblous player!! We have him here in Spain at FC Barcelona several years. He has improve some things but I dont like him at all. He is only a rebound specialist with nothing or very...
Anyway, we are not playing systems like past year. I don't know why a paint dominant team like twolves dont play inside.
xD yes, he is apathetic
About Gelabale: I've seen him playing in Spain (a lot of years ago) and in french national team several times. I dont like he. He's not a bad rebounder, and he can score too, but when you see him...
Yes, it's incredible how much high elections he has thrown to trash. Has somebody make a posible team with the last 5 or 6 drafts?
PD. In Spain is said that Ricky plays sure on saturday vs Dallas...
And it will be in Spain :)
From hoopshype:
Alex Kennedy: Sources confirm: Lakers, Wolves and Blazers discussing three-team deal. Michael Beasley to LA, Jamal Crawford to MIN, Steve Blake to POR. Twitter
Confirmed. In Spain is said everywhere. 4 to 6 months. ****!

I couldn't see last two games, but that Ricky's bad percentages may be caused by the lack of other scorers (he can be better defended). Is the only explanation I find, other than the rookie wall, to...
What a trade!!
I note that NBA followers thinks that if you haven't a superstar in your team you cant win the championship. I believe that if you'd take all 6th men of the league together in a team, you will win...
hahaha LA night. I hope they don't.
with a little temper he would be other guy, probably all star. But...
Sincerely, I like Beasly. It's a shame not be able to have continuity, because he have pretty conditions.
More on Morrow:
All of Spain? At 2:00 AM or worse... no thanks :speechless:
Ufff what was beasly singing?
Don't forget that the big goal of TWolves is to carry jj to the MVP and not to win games.
Its possible that houston wants someone more, like that:

I am trying to find the best way to layout my MVC 3 project. When searching online I came across a suggestion that basically said right click on project and add area. What this did was create an area folder with same controller/view/model structure in the same project. This is not what I want. I want the flexibility of having separate projects. I will keep only the views in the main web project. Everything else in a separate project.
Towards that attempt I created a separate project for my controllers. Now I am stuck with pointing a controller action to a view. In all the online examples it was right click and add view. This being a class library project I don't have that flexibility. Where am I going wrong?
All examples that I have found including the ones I have gone through on Asp.net basically explain how to create study applications, which is only good for learning purposes. A large commercial application can't possibly have all the views/models/controllers in one project. Or is that the way it is supposed to go in MVC? I am not sure if doing everything with mouse clicks is also a good idea. In the webforms world also there were a lot of study-for-beginners applications that used mouse clicks to create basic CRUD applications, but in real commercial projects, we never used those methods.
What are your thoughts, guidance on this?
Thanks for your time...

I am a mother of two, born and raised in Japan. I attended Japanese business college, then went on to Brigham Young University (BYU) in Provo, Utah. I was a Japanese language instructor at the Missionary Training Center while attending school at BYU. I worked for an English-Japanese translation company in Salt Lake City, Utah, translating an English learning program for Japanese people by Mackintosh called MacEnglish. I have a twenty-four year old daughter and a seventeen year old son. I currently substitute at an elementary school near my home.
Regarding tutoring: Come see me with an open mind. Casual conversation is helpful if you are hoping to learn how to speak. Repetitious practice is necessary in order to learn to speak the language. Don't be discouraged. I know how you feel; I myself learned English, doing the same thing. Don't be afraid to ask questions, even if you might think it's a silly question. If you are hoping to read and write, it will take time, but with persistence you can do it. Again, repetition is the key. Read a lot, write a lot, speak a lot. You will need to use all senses.
The more you use the language, the better you will be at it. Practicing with a native Japanese will be very beneficial.
All the best!

Small group (two or more up to four) lessons are $30/per student.
Mayumi answers my endless questions in a thoughtful way designed to make a difficult language more accessible. I especially appreciate it that I am able to have questions answered via e-mail between sessions.
She is practically a psychiatrist, always knowing how to overcome my fears and give me practical tips to combat the insecurity of any learner that he is speaking gibberish that no one will understand.

My buddy needs this achievement, but the option to take a photo in never available.
He doesn't have gold, so he can't go on-line with it and when we play 2 player local its not available. When I got it, we were system linked with a third player. Do you have to be system linked for this option to be available? Or was it because we had more than two players? Anyone know?

@9/10: Not sure about the system link stuff, but if you go into the training grounds and are killed before your teammates, it opens the "spectator" view and you will be able to take a pic. Then, war journal to upload and it should pop

Tuesday, December 18, 2012 @ 06:12:46 PM
It can't be done on split screen so if you haven't got Gold and can't play online you'll need to do play with just bots (no second controller).

Kind of took up doing this when I die. I'm trying to get things like when the hammer of dawn connects, when a mortar blows up a dude, etc. I'm hoping to get one of a locust getting nailed by the tyro station train.
To 13-16: I haven't had any trouble uploading pictures recently. When did you take your pictures? I recently tried to upload one I took in May (didn't have XBL then), but it said no. Afterward, I played some multiplayer against bots and took some new photos and those have uploaded fine.
I'm not sure it there's a scoring threshold- like if you just take a picture of the ground, I don't know if that will work.

^ Sorry, meant to update this A WEEK AND A HALF ago, but it kept slipping my mind somehow... anyway, seems it was a temporary issue on my end (I believe, despite my network being a good connection) for some reason. I got it the same day, though AFTER midnight, when I was sharing the achievement for getting Back to Basic... AFTER I goofed doing them all.
As I thought if I let the timer reach the end after doing each one, it'd make me do another one or switch to Live multiplayer, as I left each one BEFORE the timer reached zero after completion and didn't notice that it didn't show an update in progress for the achievement, or a check mark signifying completion. Oh well... so, no worries newcomers (with Gears 2 being the Games with Gold offer on 360 right now)!

Posted: 08/11/2011 - Last week the annual Beef Short Course was hosted by Texas Agrilife Extension and Texas A&M's Animal Science Department on the College Station campus, and this time last year the beef industry was hoping that lower prices in past years would be overcome by a stabilization of demand and a short supply of beef that would lead to higher prices for producers.

Posted: 07/05/2011 - Applications are being accepted for grants to provide economic assistance to independent producers, farmer and rancher cooperatives and agricultural producer groups through the Value-Added Producer Grant Program.
Posted: 07/01/2011 - Discussion of a new farm bill has begun in Washington and although the nation's budget deficit will play a major factor in what the final legislation looks like, it's not the only challenge faced by agricultural producers who hope to preserve some kind of safety net for the industry.
Posted: 06/28/2011 - The U.S. Department of Agriculture has dubbed all of Texas a natural disaster as the worst drought in decades persists across most of the state.

Updated: 06/16/2011 - There has been an unprecedented sell-off of cattle in the past few months here in the Brazos Valley, and with no relief from the drought in sight, we're liable to see cattle numbers continue to dwindle.
Updated: 06/13/2011 - If you've been traveling the countryside this spring you may have noticed a change in the rural landscape that has been brought about by the prolonged drought; less cattle, very little corn, and more cotton.
Posted: 06/07/2011 - The Texas drought continues to set records and is officially the third worst in history for this time of year, according to figures from the office of the state climatologist at Texas A&M University.
Updated: 06/13/2011 - In the past, clearing a piece of land that was overgrown with brush usually involved a bulldozer and some burn piles, but today there's another alternative.
Updated: 06/13/2011 - Over 80% of the cropland in the local Brazos River bottom is irrigated and has been for some time, but growing hay locally using irrigation is a relatively new practice.
Posted: 05/25/2011 - The price tag for the drought Texas farmers and ranchers are enduring is mounting with each dry day that passes.
Updated: 06/13/2011 - Making a living in production agriculture can be tough, even when you get cooperation from Mother Nature, and trying to do it during a drought presents its own set of management challenges.
Posted: 05/18/2011 - Agriculture officials in Texas say preliminary numbers show that the worst drought in decades has brought $1.5 billion in losses and could easily surpass the single-year record.

The Productive Historian ...
Over on the HNN mainpage, Peter Sterns writes about"The Writing Life". While setting a remarkable example, Sterns is preaching to the choir, so far as my colleagues at Cliopatria and Rebunk are concerned. Jonathan Dresner's"Grade Inflation – Why It's a Nightmare," provoked considerable discussion at HNN and elsewhere on the net. KC Johnson has had a remarkable series of pieces, including two op-eds for History News Service,"What's A Convention For Any More?" and"Could We Postpone the Election – Even If We Wanted To?" which also appearedon HNN, and"The Not So Hidden Agenda of Global Studies." [Don't tell anyone that it first appeared on David Horowitz's FrontpageRag, er, FrontpageMag.] Derek Catsam's colleagues at Rebunk, Tom Bruscino and Stephen Tootle, make their debuts on HNN's mainpage this week with Bruscino's"Does America Usually Win the War But Lose the Peace?" and Tootle's"In the Shadow of William McKinley."

Jonathan Dresner - 8/16/2004
Actually, I consider this summer to have been kind of a wash, in terms of productivity. A paper I'd delivered in draft form before was revised, re-presented, re-revised and ambitiously submitted to a field-leading journal. I wrote a book review. I didn't get a lot more than that done, academically speaking; now, having taken more time than I expected to get even that much done, I'm struggling to put my syllabi together.
As proud as I am of my blogging and commentaries, not a lot of people consider it 'productive' history.

To the Editor.—
The report by Halpin et al in The Journal (1982;248:687) presented conclusions on salicylate use in children with viral illnesses that are not founded on comprehensive appraisals of the "raw" data for potential biases—specifically protopathic and product confusion biases.With respect to protopathic bias, the Food and Drug Administration Reye's Syndrome (RS) Working Group, stated "the temporal relationship between the use of a drug and the occurrence of the event must be considered in order to eliminate the bias that may result in estimation of a measure of association," and "it was considered critical that the use of aspirin must have been before the onset of Reye's Syndrome to be considered true exposure" (unpublished data, May 1982). This principle, when violated, results in protopathic bias.1In this regard, of all recent RS surveys, only the second-year Ohio study by Halpin et al contains the critical data

Tea Rose
A Novel
By Jennifer Donnelly
St. Martin's PressCopyright © 2007 Jennifer Donnelly
All rights reserved.
Polly Nichols, a Whitechapel whore, was profoundly grateful to gin.
Gin helped her. It cured her. It took away her hunger and chased the chill from her joints. It stilled the aching in her rotten teeth and numbed the slicing pains she got every time she took a piss. It made her feel better than any man ever had. It calmed her. It soothed her.
Swaying drunkenly in the darkness of an alley, she raised a bottle to her lips and drained it. The alcohol burned like fire. She coughed, lost her grip on the bottle, and swore as it smashed.
In the distance, the clock at Christ Church struck two, its resonant chime muffled in the thickening fog. Polly dipped her hand into her coat pocket and felt for the coins there. Two hours ago, she'd been sitting in the kitchen of a doss-house on Thrawl Street, penniless. The landlord's man had spotted her there, asked for his fourpence, and turned her out when she couldn't supply it. She'd cursed and screamed at him, telling him to save her bed, he'd get his doss money, telling him she'd earned it and drunk it three times over that day.
"And I got it, too, you bastard," she muttered. "Didn't I say I would? Got yer poxy fourpence and a skinful to boot."
She'd found her money and her gin in the trousers of a lone drunk wending his way down the Whitechapel Road. He'd needed a bit of coaxing. At forty-two, her face was no longer her fortune. She was missing two front teeth and her pug nose was thick and flattened across the bridge like a fighter's, but her large bosom was still firm and a glimpse of it had decided him. She'd insisted on a swig of his gin first, knowing a mouthful would numb her throat, get up her nose, and block the beer and onions stink of him. As she drank, she'd unbuttoned her camisole, and while he was busy groping her, she'd slipped the bottle into her own pocket. He was clumsy and slow and she was glad when he finally pulled away and staggered off.
Christ, but there's nothing like gin, she thought now, smiling at the memory of her good fortune. To feel the weight of a bottle in your hands, press your lips against the glass, and feel the blue ruin flowing down your throat, hot and harsh. Nothing like it at all. And close to full that bottle had been. No mean thru'penny swig. Her smile faded as she found herself craving more. She'd been drinking all day and knew the misery that awaited her when the booze wore off. The retching, the shaking, and, worst of all, the things she saw—black, scuttling things that gibbered and leered from the cracks in the walls of the doss-house.
Polly licked her right palm and smoothed her hair. Her hands went to her camisole; her fingers fumbled a knot into the dirty strings threaded through the top of it. She tugged her blouse together and buttoned it, then lurched out of the alley and down Bucks Row, singing to herself in a gravelly, gin-cracked voice:
"Oh, bad luck can't be prevented,
Fortune, she smiles or she frowns,
'E's best off that's contented,
To mix, sir, the ups and the downs . . ."
At the corner of Bucks Row and Brady Street, she suddenly stopped. Her vision blurred. A buzzing noise, low and close like the wings of an insect, began in her head.
"I've the 'orrors of drink upon me," she moaned. She held her hands up. They were trembling. She buttoned her coat up around her neck and began to walk faster, desperate for more gin. Her head lowered, she did not see the man standing a few feet ahead of her until she was nearly upon him. "Blimey!" she cried. "Where the 'ell did you come from?"
The man looked at her. "Will you?" he asked.
"No, guv'nor, I will not. I'm poorly just now. Good night."
She started to move off, but he grabbed her arm. She turned on him, her free arm raised to strike him, when her eyes fell upon the shilling pinched between his thumb and forefinger.
"Well, that changes things, don't it?" she said. His shilling plus the fourpence she already had would buy booze and a bed tonight, tomorrow, and the day after, too. As sick as she felt, she couldn't turn it down.
Polly and her client walked back the way she'd come in silence, past tumble-down dwellings and tall brick warehouses. The man had a powerful stride and she found herself trotting to keep pace. Glancing at him, she saw he was expensively dressed. Probably had a nice watch on him. She'd certainly have a go at his pockets when the time was right. He stopped abruptly at the end of Bucks Row, by the entrance to a stable yard.
"Not 'ere," she protested, wrinkling her nose. "By the metal works . . . a little ways down . . ."
"This'll do," he said, pushing her against two sheets of corrugated metal, secured by a chain and padlock, that served as the stable's gate.
His face shone weirdly bright in the thickening darkness, its pallor broken by eyes that were cold and black. A wave of nausea gripped her as she looked into them. Oh, Jesus, she pleaded silently, don't let me be sick. Not here. Not now. Not this close to a whole shilling. She forced herself to breathe deeply, willing the nausea to subside. As she did, she inhaled his scent—Macassar oil, sweat, and something else . . . what was it? Tea. Bloody tea, of all things.
"Let's get on with it then," she said. She lifted her skirts, fixing him with a look of weary expectation.
The man's eyes were glittering darkly now, like shiny pools of black oil. "You filthy bitch," he said.
"No dirty talk tonight, pet. I'm in a bit of an 'urry. Need some 'elp, do you?" She reached for him. He slapped her hand away.
"Did you really think you could hide from me?"
"Look 'ere, are you going to—" Polly began. She never finished. Without warning, the man grabbed her by the throat and slammed her into the gate.
"Leave off!" she cried, flailing at him. "Let me go!"
He tightened his grip. "You left us," he said, his eyes bright with hatred. "Left us for the rats."
"Please!" she rasped. "Please don't 'urt me. I don't know about any rats, I swear it . . . I . . ."
Polly never saw the knife coming. She had no time to scream as it plunged into her belly, biting and twisting. A soft gasp escaped her as he pulled it out. She stared at the blade, uncomprehending, her eyes wide, her mouth a great, round O. Slowly, delicately, she touched her fingers to the wound. They came away crimson.
She lifted her eyes to his, her voice rising in a wild, terrified keen, and looked into the face of madness. He raised his knife; it bit into her throat. Her knees buckled and all around her darkness descended, enveloping her, dragging her into a thick and strangling fog, a fog deeper than the river Thames and blacker than the London night that swirled down on her soul.

Dimming Down the Tree
"Around Christmas-time over 20 years ago, we decided to add a dimmer to the dining room light. I hooked it up up and turned the breaker back on to show my wife. I twisted the switch with great pride. Unfortunately, she tapped me and pointed to the living room, where the Christmas tree was lighting and dimming, lighting and dimming."

Compulsive hoarding is a common and often disabling neuropsychiatric disorder. This article reviews the conceptualization, phenomenology, diagnosis, etiology, neurobiology, and treatment of compulsive hoarding. Compulsive hoarding is part of a discrete clinical syndrome that includes difficulty discarding, urges to save, excessive acquisition, indecisiveness, perfectionism, procrastination, disorganization, and avoidance. It was thought to be part of obsessive-compulsive disorder or obsessive-compulsive personality disorder, but recent evidence indicates that it should be classified as a separate disorder with its own diagnostic criteria. Compulsive hoarding is a genetically discrete, strongly heritable phenotype. Neuroimaging and neuropsychological studies are elucidating its neurobiology, implicating dysfunction of ventral and medial prefrontal cortical areas that mediate decision-making, attention, and emotional regulation. Effective treatments include pharmacotherapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy. More research will be required to determine the prevalence, etiology, and pathophysiology of compulsive hoarding and to develop better treatments

Perseid Meteor Shower in 2016
The 2016 Perseid meteor shower will peak on August 12 and 13. A waxing gibbous Moon will make it harder for observers to watch the meteor shower.
When Can I See the Perseids?
The Perseid meteor shower, one of the brighter meteor showers of the year, occur every year between July 17 and August 24. The shower tends to peak around August 9-13.
The best time to view the Perseids, or most other meteor showers is when the sky is the darkest. Most astronomers suggest that depending on the Moon's phase, the best time to view meteor showers is right before dawn.
Comet Swift-Tuttle
Made of tiny space debris from the comet Swift-Tuttle, the Perseids are named after the constellation Perseus. This is because the direction, or radiant, from which the shower seems to come in the sky lies in the same direction as the constellation Perseus, which can be found in the north-eastern part of the sky.
While the skies light up several time a year by other meteor showers , the Perseids are widely sought after by astronomers and stargazers. This is because at its peak, one can see 60 to a 100 meteors in an hour from a dark place.
Where Can I See the Perseids?
The Perseids can be seen in the Northern Hemisphere. Look between the radiant, which will be in the north-east part of the sky and the zenith (the point in sky directly above you).
While you can easily see a shooting star with the naked eye just looking straight up, the table below shows the exact direction of the Perseids from your location.

How to Watch Meteor Showers
- Check the weather: Meteors, or shooting stars, are easy to spot, all you need is clear skies and a pair of eyes.
- Get out of town: Find a place as far away as possible from artificial lights
- Prepare to wait: Bring something to sit or lie down on. Star gazing is a waiting game, so get comfortable.

The GTN isn't a charity function. There are planetary commendations for that.
Also, why on earth would anyone ever sell an item at cost? It would be much less hassle to just sell the materials if there wasn't a profit involved.
sigh, no one ever reads a post.
The prices they are charging for crafted items are FAR over the cost of crafting the items, i am not asking them to sell them for less then what it costs to make the items, thats just stupid, i am asking them to be fair, paying between 10k right up to 25k for something that costs at the most 1200cr to make, i understand it costs quite alot to level up a crafting skill, but to craft a specific item after learning the schematic doesn't cost that much at all, certainly not 10k or even 25k.
Also, i am not whining, i am being honest, you just don't like it, since it probably means you are one of those crafters that spends little and charges insane prices.

Marshall Rogers R.I.P.
class=img_thumbleft>DC has announced that one of the great superhero comic book artists,Marshall Rogers
, has died at age 57. Rogers drew Detective Comics #472 in 1976, the first comic this fan ever bought. That run came to be called "the definitive Batman
," and laid the template for the Batman movies, the "dark deco" animated series, and Frank Miller's revisions. Here's the email from DC Comics: 'Marshall was one of the radical young stylists bringing new looks to DC in the '70s, especially with his memorable collaboration with Steve Englehart on Batman," says DC Comics President & Publisher Paul Levitz. "His debonair smile and charm were every bit as endearing as his art was energetic, and his colleagues at DC are all shocked to have a great artist pass so young."
'Born January 22, 1950, Rogers studied architecture at Kent State University before pursuing a career in comics. His earliest work appeared in Marvel Comics' black and white magazines; in 1976, his art first appeared in a backup story in DETECTIVE COMICS, the title with which he is most identified.
'Rogers quickly moved up to pencilling the lead stories in DETECTIVE, working with his frequent collaborators, writer Steve Englehart and inker Terry Austin, on a run of issues that featured the acclaimed "Joker Fish" story. He simultaneously drew a memorable run on MISTER MIRACLE.
'Rogers returned to Batman frequently after his initial run on DETECTIVE, contributing stories to BATMAN FAMILY and other titles, including a new look at the Dark Knight's beginnings in SECRET ORIGINS. In the 1980s, Rogers began working for Eclipse Comics, with projects including Coyote, Scorpio, the graphic novel Detectives, Inc., and his own creation, Cap'n Quick and A Foozle.
'By the mid-1980s, Rogers was working for Marvel Comics, where he illustrated Dr. Strange, G.I. Joe, Howard the Duck and more, as well as a long run on Silver Surfer. He became the artist on the Batman daily comic strip at the end of the decade.
'More recently, Rogers illustrated the miniseries GREEN LANTERN: EVIL'S MIGHT, then returned to the Dark Knight for a 5-part story in BATMAN: LEGENDS OF THE DARK KNIGHT. He reteamed with Englehart and Austin for the 2005 miniseries BATMAN: DARK DETECTIVE, a follow up on their classic work of the 1970s.'

Don't light up in public just yet, tokers - pot's still illegal.
But Philadelphia is poised to join a rising number of state and local governments after City Council voted, 13-3, Thursday to substantially lessen the penalties for possessing small amounts of marijuana. People caught with less than about an ounce would be issued a citation and fined $25, but not arrested.
The apparently veto-proof majority adopted a measure that advocates say will free police to handle more-important duties, and help African American residents who have been penalized disproportionately. Police arrested 4,336 people for marijuana possession last year, 83 percent of them black.

Offshore Earthquake Jolts Japan
TOKYO -- The Japan Meteorological Agency says a magnitude 6.9 earthquake shook Tokyo and surrounding areas on Sunday.
The quake swayed houses and rattled furniture in the city at 7:56 p.m. No damage was immediately reported by national television networks.
The epicenter of the quake was off the coast of Japan, near the volcanic Izu Islands, the Meteorological Agency said. The center was at a depth of 340 kilometers and there was no danger of a tsunami, the agency said.
On the Japanese scale of measuring earthquakes, Central Tokyo recorded magnitude four, while other cities in the greater Kanto region and northern Japan scaled at either three or four, the agency said. The Japanese scale measures intensity from a range of one to seven.
Around 20% of the world's most powerful earthquakes strike Japan.

New Mexico border county to end immigration holds
LAS CRUCES, N.M. (AP) — A New Mexico county along the U.S.-Mexico border says it will stop holding people in jail without charge at the request of federal immigration authorities.
The Dona Ana County Detention Center recently announced it would no longer honor requests by Immigration and Customs Enforcement to detain people arrested on unrelated charges for 48 hours while agents investigated their immigration status.
The move comes after a federal appeals court ruled earlier this year that states and localities are not required to honor ICE [auth] "detainer" requests.
Immigrant rights groups lauded on Tuesday the decision and said it loosens disputed ties between local and federal law enforcement agencies.
Advocates also announced the settlement of a lawsuit against Dona Ana County involving two sisters who were detained for two months under an ICE "48-hour detainer" without being charged with an immigration violation.
As part of the settlement, the county's insurance paid out $35,000 in Paso Del Norte Civil Rights Project's legal fees and $10,000 to each woman.
"The most important thing here is that the county made the policy change," said Jed Untereker, legal director of Paso del Norte Civil Rights Project. "That has real impact on the community. It's good for the community, good for people who believe in civil rights."
A spokesman for the county said County Manager Julia Brown made the decision to end ICE detainers based on the appeals court ruling and "ordered the change in policy independently of the lawsuit and in advance of the settlement."
Since the county's change last month, about 120 localities across the country have determined not to follow through on the ICE requests, taking steps to separate themselves and their missions from federal immigration enforcement, Untereker said.
Fernando Garcia, director of the Border Network for Human Rights, called the county's reversal regarding ICE holds "a growing trend of good things in southern New Mexico."
In April, Dona Ana County commissioners passed a measure asking for "clear policies" that ensure sheriff's deputies steer clear of enforcing federal immigration law.

For some reason, even when the check-box "Remember Me" is checked when logging into my admin area of my blog, as soon as I leave the admin area I am logged out.

This started happening shortly after updating wordpress but I'm not sure if its related.

The Bush war on science and climate continues
The Guardian online asked me for an opinion piece on the recent ozone decision at EPA. It begins:
Why is it that, in the Bush administration, the desires of well-heeled polluters always trump the analyses of government scientists? The answer is that the top political appointees – and the president himself – personally weigh in on the side of industry.
No surprise to anybody who read Chris Mooney's excellent book, but it is somehow reassuring, in a pathetic sort of way, to know that the old saying is true: "Plus §a change, plus c'est la mªme chose." Pardon my French.
I do think it is stunning, even for Bush, that the President himself personally intervened to stop the EPA from trying to modestly slow carbon dioxide emissions growth.
You can read the whole piece here.
10 Responses to The Bush war on science and climate continues
"Why is it that, in the Bush administration, the desires of well-heeled polluters always trump the analyses of government scientists? "
It is not only 'well-heeled polluters' a typical liberal smear of any one who questions the religious aspects of the true GW believers but down to earth scientists and engineers who doubt the agenda driven government scientists.
Not a difficult question to answer, the DOE and EPA government 'scientists' cannot be trusted to provide unbiased answers to scientific questions regarding the earth's climate or biofuels.
For example, Mr. Hansen is the chronic complainer at every public opportunity where he whines that he is being censored as he rattles off his impression of Al Gore on global warming. Back at the lab he presented incorrect temperature data for about five years that inflated the warming cycle. It took a couple of Canadian scientists to finally pin him down and force corrections. Remarkably the 1930s became the warmest decade. Over at the DOE, the touchstone is biofuels, and outrageous claims are made for ethanol by government scientists that are scientificly, technically and environmently wrong. At last the major and most trusted scientific publication in the USA has taken up the challenge and published:
Biofuels Are Bad for Feeding People and Combating Climate Change February 7, 2008
No doubt the global warming zealots are sharpening their verbal knives to silence the truth bearing heretics.
Patrick490 states "Remarkably the 1930s became the warmest decade."
Untrue. I suggest you lern some actual climate science.
It may come as a shock to you, Patrick49, but most people I know who accept that the science on global warming/climate change is sound also agree with the Scientific American headline Biofuels Are Bad for Feeding People and Combating Climate Change.
Clearly you need to get out more. It's not those who are looking to combat global warming who are pushing biofuels, its those who are looking to get rich selling biofuels who are, along with those selling their feed stocks, largely corn and palm kernel oil, the former uneconomical in both dollars and energy inputs unless propped up by government subsidies, and driving up the cost of corn, the latter driving deforestation to plant palm plantations.
And your assertion that the 1930s became the warmest decade when NASA GISS recalculated the integrated temperature record for US urban and rural land stations in the GISTEMP analysis last August is flat out not true. After the correction, 1998 was revised down by 1 one hundredth of a degree while 1934 was revised upward by 2 one hundredths of a degree (a change from an anomaly of 1.24°C vs 1.23°C to 1.23°C vs 1.25°C).
Plus, the correction made NO perceptible change in the combined global land-ocean temperature record. There is a reason, after all, why they call it GLOBAL warming. Yet you've inflated a change in a single year of the US land station record to a full decade.
Next time you might want to check your facts before you make a fool of yourself in public.
Not only was 1998 temperature revised down but so were the 2000 to 2006 data.
A little fact checking would have revealed these changes.""The Hansen error also has a significant impact on the GISS estimate of U.S. temperature history with estimates for 2000 and later being lowered by about 0.15 deg C (2006 by 0.10 deg C)."

As you no doubt know it was Mr. McIntyre who brought Mr. Hansen's Y2K error to light and was instrumental in discrediting Mr. Mann's 'hockey stick' curve.

There is also a discussion at realclimate:
The net effect of the change was to reduce mean US anomalies by about 0.15 ºC for the years 2000-2006. There were some very minor knock on effects in earlier years due to the GISTEMP adjustments for rural vs. urban trends. In the global or hemispheric mean, the differences were imperceptible (since the US is only a small fraction of the global area).
"As you no doubt know it was Mr. McIntyre who brought Mr. Hansen's Y2K error to light and was instrumental in discrediting Mr. Mann's 'hockey stick' curve."
McIntyre, to his credit, did indeed catch the error, but his "discrediting" of Mann's "hockey stick" curve was itself discredited–repeatedly. Funny how you guys always fail to mention that part.
Fix the link to the Guardian story
In the Guardian piece, Joe wrote: "Once an agency charged with protecting the environment loses its scientific integrity, what has it got left? Besides corporate contributions for the boss's boss, that is."
When Ronald Reagan took over the Presidency in 1981 and in the years following, there were similar actions at EPA. There were massive staff resignations and a very discouraged atmosphere at the agency. There were so-called "science courts" set up at the agency to dispose of pending regulatory matters. In general, industry was invited in and given the chance to propose a voluntary program. These programs were adopted and announced as the disposition of the pending regulatory actions. The Natural Resources Defense Council sued EPA more than a dozen times to have legal procedures followed in these actions, and NRDC won all of the law suits. But the agency lost a lot of its credibility and a lot of its early staff.

No white flag here as of March 15thhttp://www.climateaudit.org
or from, what can be found, the two scientific committees appointed by Congress.
