The Sierra Club says it will block Dominion Resources' (D +0.6%) plan to export 1B cubic feet per day of Marcellus Shale liquefied natural gas through the company's Cove Point, Md. terminal.

@#$% Dominion. Talk about obstructionist!

Real world?
As a Virginia resident and Dominion customer I would like to thank those at Dominion for not wasting my money (as a customer, shareholder and taxpayer) on wind power and thereby affording us the growing benefits of cheap natural gas generated electricity. I hope they've made similar decisions regarding solar.
RK, I hope you can influence some other members of this pitifully recalcitrant bunch of mental dwarfs. The Sierra club seems bent on proving that environmentalism is a disease not a real world concept. Everyone has doubts about a lot of the things happening in energy right now but natural gas use instead of coal is not one of them, at least to real world thinkers. Hope that one day it comes home to them, in a most unpleasant way.

Cleveland Indians: Bobby Avila, a three-time All-Star who won
the American League batting title in 1954, died Tuesday of
complications from diabetes and a lung ailment. He was 78.
Avila, known in his homeland as "Beto," died in a private
clinic in the Gulf Coast city of Veracruz, the government news
agency Notimex and the Televisa TV network reported.
He played second base for the Cleveland Indians from 1949 to
1958 and also was with the Baltimore Orioles, Milwaukee Braves and
Boston Red Sox during 11 seasons in the big leagues.
Avila batted .341 to edge out Ted Williams and Minnie Minoso for
the AL batting title and help Cleveland win the pennant in 1954. He
was the first Latino to win the batting crown. He played in the
All-Star game in 1952, 1954 and 1955.
Avila played in more than 1,300 games, finishing with a career
batting average of .281 with 80 homers and 457 RBIs. After his
major league career, Avila played in 1960 for Mexico City's Tigers.
He batted .333 and set a record with 125 RBIs in his final season.
New York Yankees: Owner George Steinbrenner summoned his top executives to Florida for meetings Tuesday, less than a week after New York became the first major-league team to waste a 3-0 lead in a postseason series.
Five Yankees vice presidents met among themselves during the afternoon at the team's spring training complex in Tampa. Steinbrenner and his top baseball officials also met for several
hours Tuesday night.
New York is expected to pursue outfielder Carlos Beltran after
he becomes a free agent and to add pitchers. Former Yankees minor
leaguer Eric Milton, and Florida right-hander Carl Pavano are among
those available.
In addition, the Yankees could resume talks with Arizona about acquiring left-hander Randy Johnson.
After winning the first three games of the AL Championship Series, the Yankees were three outs from winning their 40th AL pennant. They wound up losing the series in seven games to the Red Sox.
At the afternoon session were vice presidents Mark Newman, Damon Oppenheimer, Lin Garrett, Billy Connors and Gordon Blakeley along with advance scout Chuck Cottier and pro scout Bill Emslie.
Oakland Athletics: Rene Lachemann was hired as bench coach for next season, replacing Chris Speier.
The team also announced that the other five members of the coaching staff -- third-base coach Ron Washington, first-base coach Brad Fischer, pitching coach Curt Young, bullpen coach Bob Geren and hitting coach Dave Hudgens -- will return next season.
Speier's contract was not renewed. He took a job with the Cubs as their third-base coach.
This is Lachemann's second stint with the A's. He spent two seasons as first-base coach and four as third-base coach for Tony La Russa from 1987-92. He spent the last two seasons as bench coach for Bob Melvin in Seattle.
Lachemann has been in professional baseball for 40 years, including managerial stints in Seattle (1981-83), Milwaukee (1984) and Florida (1993-96).
Bonds named player of year by TSN: Barry Bonds was selected the Sporting News player of the year Tuesday behind a record number of ballots cast by 552 major-league players.
Bonds, who surpassed 700 home runs, finished with the most walks in a season (232) and won his second batting title (.362). He received 169½ votes, way ahead of runner-up Adrian Beltre of the Dodgers (116).
"I am extremely thrilled to be the recipient of the Sporting News Player of the Year Award," said Bonds, who finished second to the Cardinals' Albert Pujols in 2003.
In other awards given away by TSN, Braves manager Bobby Cox was named NL manager of the year for the third consecutive season and a record seventh time.
Twins manager Ron Gardenhire and Rangers skipper Buck Showalter tied for the AL manager of the year award with four votes each of a possible 14. Gardenhire led the Twins to their third straight Central title, while Showalter overcame the loss of Alex Rodriguez and a shaky pitching staff to mold the Rangers into a contender for the AL West crown.
Other award winners in the AL included Twins left-hander Johan Santana (pitcher), Athletics shortstop Bobby Crosby (rookie), Paul Konerko of the White Sox (comeback) and Yankees closer Mariano Rivera (reliever).
Other award winners in the NL included Giants right-hander Jason Schmidt (pitcher), Pirates outfielder Jason Bay (rookie), Cardinals pitcher Chris Carpenter (comeback) and Dodgers closer Eric Gagne (reliever).
Kuhn undergoes heart surgery: Former baseball commissioner Bowie Kuhn underwent open-heart surgery this week. Kuhn had a valve replaced during Monday's operation, spokesman Bob Wirz said.
"He's expected to have a fine recovery," Wirz said.
Kuhn, who lives in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., was baseball commissioner from 1969-84. He turns 78 on Thursday.

sorry about the delay in reply - got a freelance job so im hard at "work".
right if i rememebr right from when i upgraded i uplaoded the wordpress stuff over the top of teh wordpress then ran the
h**p://www.mydomain.com/root/wp-admin/b2-2-wp.php file and entereed what was required - oh in the wp-config.php you need to enter the same database info as your current B2 blog.
I woudl recommend waiting another day or two for the new 1.0 version to save time and energy...
oh and make sure you take a back up of your database before you do anything to it!
Make a backup of all your files as they will be overwritten. Release 1.0 should be out tomorrow from what I hear. ;)
When I say back up, I'm just talking about the files you are going to replace (.php). I haven't ever had anything happen to my MySQL database.
southerngal said: "I haven't ever had anything happen to my MySQL database."
Uh, oh...now you've done it. You've gone and jinxed yourself ;-)
:p I hope not! *LOL* I have been very lucky over the past few years. Maybe this year will be the Lottery year?

I installed and activated Sweet Captcha just a couple of days ago. I set the options so that it shows up on the login screen, the comment page, and on the form I'd created with Contact Form 7.
It works correctly on the login screen. (Thank goodness! I can still log in and continue working on my site.)
But it does NOT work on either of the forms, the comment form from comment.php, and my CF7 registration form. These two show the captcha pictures, but I can't actually drag any of them. There's just a spinning arrow that follows my mouse's arrow instead, and, of course, I get an error message saying there's a validation error.

Thanks for your help,

Methods for Reducing Audible Artifacts in a Wavelet-Based Broad-Band Denoising System
A wavelet-based method for denoising broad-band noisy audio signals is proposed and implemented. The method is a modified algorithm based on the method of Coifman and Wickerhauser (1992). The modified algorithm shows noticeable improvement in quality and computation overhead compared to the original method when denoising digitized music signals with different levels of additive broad-band noise. Several implementation issues are described.

Start your custom "Winter" project by clicking the button next to your favorite "Winter" title below...
This is the word/character used to describe the Winter season in Chinese and Japanese. It also means winter in Korean Hanja, though a second character is usually added in Korean.
This literally translates as: Without having experienced the cold of winter, one cannot appreciate the warmth of spring.
Figuratively, this means: One cannot truly appreciate happiness without having gone through hardship.
There are many contrasts in life. One simply cannot fully know what joy is without having experienced misery, difficulty, and pain. How could you explain "light" if you did not have "darkness" to compare it to?
Embrace hardship, as it makes the good times seem even better.
This Chinese proverb literally translates as: [One who has] not been a monk [does] not know [the feeling of a] cold head.
I need to explain that a Chinese Buddhist monk always has a shaved head, and thus a cold head in winter.
Figuratively, this means: One cannot know the true meaning of hardship until one has experienced it oneself.
This is an idiom in Chinese, so the figurative meaning is what people perceive when they hear or read this phrase. Just as in English, when someone says, "The grass is always greener," one will think about the idea of jealousy, rather than the quality of one's lawn.

Tranquil dwelling. varṣā, varṣās, or varṣāvasāna. A retreat during the three months of the Indian rainy season, and also, say some, in the depth of winter. During the rains it was 'difficult to move without injuring insect life'. But the object was for study and meditation. In Tokhara the retreat is said to have been in winter, from the middle of the 12th to the middle of the 3rd moon; in India from the middle of the 5th to the 8th, or the 6th to the 9th moons; usually from Śrāvaṇa, Chinese 5th moon, to Aśvayuja, Chinese 8th moon; but the 16th of the 4th to the 15th of the 7th moon has been the common period in China and Japan. The two annual periods are sometimes called 坐 夏 and 坐 臘 sitting or resting for the summer and for the end of the year.

All of our calligraphy wall scrolls are handmade.
When the calligrapher finishes creating your artwork, it is taken to my art mounting workshop in Beijing where a wall scroll is made by hand from a combination of silk, rice paper, and wood.
After we create your wall scroll, it takes at least two weeks for air mail delivery from Beijing to you.
Allow a few weeks for delivery. Rush service speeds it up a week or two for $10!
When you select your calligraphy, you'll be taken to another page where you can choose various custom options.
The wall scroll that Sandy is holding in this picture is a "large size"
single-character wall scroll.
We also offer custom wall scrolls in small, medium, and an even-larger jumbo size.
Professional calligraphers are getting to be hard to find these days.
Instead of drawing characters by hand, the new generation in China merely type roman letters into their computer keyboards and pick the character that they want from a list that pops up.
There is some fear that true Chinese calligraphy may become a lost art in the coming years. Many art institutes in China are now promoting calligraphy programs in hopes of keeping this unique form of art alive.
Even with the teachings of a top-ranked calligrapher in China, my calligraphy will never be good enough to sell. I will leave that to the experts.
The same calligrapher who gave me those lessons also attracted a crowd of thousands and a TV crew as he created characters over 6-feet high. He happens to be ranked as one of the top 100 calligraphers in all of China. He is also one of very few that would actually attempt such a feat.

B's, Not Need, Are Enough For Some State Scholarships
Published: October 31, 2002
(Page 2 of 2)
Before they began offering merit awards, usually with the proceeds from lotteries or with payments from the 1998 tobacco settlement, some states offered relatively few grants, whether for achievement or need. West Virginia, for example, offered only about half of what it plans to provide in awards within three years.
''Isn't it a good thing that the total investment in scholarships is growing?'' said Lutz Berkner, senior research associate for MPR Associates, an educational consulting firm. ''Something for education has got to be better than nothing.''
If there is one thing on which both sides agree it is that merit awards alone are insufficient. Whittling away at high school dropout rates and helping below-average students excel -- so that they, too, can earn scholarships -- calls for a major investment in public schools that few educators or politicians would openly argue against.
Still, defenders say, the merit-based movement is consistent with the fundamental changes coursing through the educational system. Eighteen states already have exit exams that students must pass before receiving a high school diploma, and the demand for rigorous academic standards seems to get louder every year. In that light, supporters argue, consider the exams a stick -- and merit awards the carrot.
''I don't understand how anyone could argue that we shouldn't reward performance,'' said Dane Linn, director of education for the National Governors Association. ''Isn't that the goal of standards-based reform?''
The popularity of these programs is evident from the numbers of students taking part in them. More than 51,000 students won merit awards under Michigan's program this year, the highest number yet. In Florida, more than 92,000 students shared $164 million worth of similar scholarships in the 2000-2001 school year, also a record.
So popular have such awards become that Tom Golisano, the Independence Party candidate for governor of New York, has made them a centerpiece of his campaign, while lawmakers in Tennessee have broken an 18-year stalemate to place a lottery-for-scholarships referendum on the ballot for the coming election.
''We're losing people to Georgia,'' said Stephen I. Cohen, the state senator championing the Tennessee initiative. ''People are moving over there to get the scholarship money.''
As some states have learned, scaling back or tinkering with their scholarships can prove difficult. Concerned that many low-income students have been overlooked by its merit program, Florida legislators have considered shifting more money toward need-based scholarship. But the political resistance they encountered was formidable.
''We have promised these scholarships to people and we can't change the rules in the middle of the game,'' said Buddy Dyer, a Florida state senator who sits on the education committee.
For all the enthusiasm surrounding them, merit awards have engendered their share of controversy, especially when they use standardized tests to decide who qualifies. At the end of August, seven civil rights groups filed a complaint against Florida's program, contending that its reliance on tests like the SAT discriminates against Latino and black students who may get good grades but cannot afford expensive coaches to help them with the exam.
On the same day, Harvard's Civil Rights Project released a report showing that students from the wealthiest high schools in Florida and Michigan were more than twice as likely to win merit scholarships than their counterparts from the poorest schools.
But are merit scholarships merely the domain of privileged students who may not need them? No, the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators says. It estimates that two-thirds of state merit award winners demonstrate some degree of financial need, usually to the tune of about $5,100 a year.
Michael Rich's mother works at a cotton mill. His father makes cabinets, and gave him no illusions about their ability to pay the $15,000 worth of tuition needed to put him through the University of Georgia.
''I need my scholarship to get through school,'' said Mr. Rich, a junior at Georgia. ''Granted, people who otherwise could have afforded college are getting merit grants too, but that doesn't take away from the rest of us. I mean, who can't keep a B average?''

Champion Jockey quick play preview
Tecmo Koei has almost single-handedly been feeding horse racing enthusiasts with console games to sate their appetites over the years. The Gallop Racer and G1 Jockey franchises in the UK and US (plus Winning Post in Japan) have made countless successful transitions from console to console over the years, and adapted to suit each new games technology as it arrives. Now, with the advent of the PlayStation Move and Kinect, the two big brands have been combined to make one: Champion Jockey.
Pocket-lint was, therefore, invited to Royal Windsor Racecourse to check out the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the new game (a Wii version is also available), and was more than happy to look foolish in the process. After all, we came home £65 up, having backed the winners of three out of six real races. But that's another story entirely...
Champion Jockey: G1 Jockey & Gallop Racer
What platform is it on?
Xbox 360, PS3, Wii
When's it due out?
2 September 2011
What other game is it like?
G1 Jockey, Gallop Racer
Does it use any new tech like 3D, PlayStation Move or Kinect for Xbox 360?
Yes - it uses each console respective motion controller, Kinect for Xbox 360, PlayStation Move for PS3, and Wiimote for Wii. However, it can also be played with a normal joypad on the former two.
The pitch
Get back in the saddle for some serious thoroughbred horse racing action!
Champion Jockey: G1 Jockey & Gallop Racer is the spiritual successor of the G1 Jockey and Gallop Racer series, and depicts the horse racing universe through a collection of real world races and immersive and intuitive gameplay with simple controls. Through the use of the latest motion controllers on the market, experience what it feels like to be a jockey!
The storyline
You start out as a trainee jockey, and must progress through the game, riding in higher and higher class races as you go. The game also features an in-depth management simulation, with horse breeding and training as part of its make-up.
Trailers, demos and video
Our first impressions
We've always been fans of the G1 Jockey games here at Pocket-lint, and the use of the Wiimote with G1 Jockey 2008 definitely added a new layer of fun to what we already thought was an engrossing, involving simulation series. Clearly developer Koei was happy with the new input format too, as it's utilised its experience with the Wii to bring motion controls to the PS3 and Xbox 360 too.
Champion Jockey is also the first in the company's long pedigree of horse racing titles to hit the Microsoft console, so it was that specific version that we made a beeline for.
It was also, mercifully, the easiest to get to grips with as there was no physical controller to, er, grip. The Kinect is a great control method if you have the room for it, and there was plenty in a VIP tent near the parade paddock at Windsor races, we were just hoping that no real jockeys were peering in.
As a mighty, in-depth simulation, with plenty of options and clickable buttons on each page, unfortunately Champion Jockey cannot be played simply with the Kinect alone. There's little use for menu motions here, so an in-reach joypad is a must. However, once you get into the game, you'll find plenty of jiggling about to satisfy even those who've drunk a few too many Red Bulls.
Miming the pulling of reins controls the speed of the horse during a race, putting your arms down then bringing them up will leap over a fence (if timed correctly), and slapping the air next to your thigh, like a poor 1990s disco dancer, will use the whip for that last burst of acceleration. There are other moves, such as arm motions to move left or right, but after two races we had such a dab on that we needed a good sit down.
If nothing else, it's a great keep fit game for those that avoid lycra like the plague.
That said, it's highly pleasing to note that you never have to bang about, jump off the floor, or cause any of the noise and havok that might annoy those in a lower flat (for example). Indeed, a little birdy told me that it could even be played sitting down, with no impact on the gameplay. But Microsoft doesn't want Kinect owners to know that, so forget we said anything.
Graphically, there's not much difference, to our eyes, between Champion Jockey and its more recent predecessors, at least in the horses and jockeys themselves. The racecourses have been improved, however, with tracks from Japan, Europe and the US all featuring distinguishing graphical flourishes. Steeplechases are also new.
And, for the first time, online multiplayer has been included this time around, with up to four people being able to race against each other remotely.
From our quick play, Champion Jockey is a must for horse racing fans, and makes a very welcome debut on the Xbox 360.
Please note
Although the version we played and saw was the review code, we only had time to play a couple of quick races - enough to get a feel for both jump and flat racing. And we also only played the Xbox 360 version of the game, using a Kinect.
So, with that in mind we present you with our Quick Play.
What we've done is broken down the key facts you need to know and then given you our first impressions based on around 15 minutes of gaming. For us, that 15 minutes isn't enough to do a First Look review, and especially not a review. How can you rate a game that offers over 30 hours of gaming based on just 15 minutes of play? However, it should hopefully give you an idea, a feeling, a notion of what to expect come launch day.

U.K. Stocks Drop as U.S. Adds to EU Sanctions on Russia
U.K. stocks fell after the U.S. joined the European Union in imposing sanctions on Russia for the Kremlin's involvement in the insurgency in eastern Ukraine.
Antofagasta Plc retreated 4.6 percent after saying its cash costs climbed during the first half. Compass Group Plc lost 2.5 percent after the catering company said that the pound's strength may hurt operating profit this financial year. Barclays Plc added 4.2 percent after the bank reported a return to profit in the second quarter. Travis Perkins Plc rose 2.7 percent as it announced a bigger-than-expected dividend.
The FTSE 100 Index dropped 34.31 points, or 0.5 percent, to 6,773.44 at the close in London. The benchmark gauge traded at 14.3 times the forecast earnings of its constituent companies yesterday, its highest valuation since 2009, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The FTSE All-Share Index also lost 0.5 percent today, while Ireland's ISEQ Index slipped 0.7 percent.
The Treasury Department introduced measures late yesterday preventing three Russian banks from selling equity and debt through the U.S. financial system. The government also banned transactions with a state-owned shipbuilder that serves the Russia's oil-and-gas industry and navy. The EU yesterday agreed to bar state-owned Russian lenders from raising capital in the club's 28 member states.
U.S. Economy
A Commerce Department report showed that the world's largest economy expanded by an annualized 4 percent in the second quarter, beating the median economist estimate of 3 percent. The release also showed that gross domestic product contracted 2.1 percent in the first three months of this year, less than the previously estimated 2.9 percent decline.
The Federal Reserve will announce the pace of its quantitative-easing program after the close of U.K. markets. The central bank will lower its monthly asset purchases to $25 billion from $35 billion, according to economists surveyed by Bloomberg. That would put the Fed on track to halt all new bond purchases at its October meeting.
Antofagasta dropped 4.6 percent to 816 pence after saying that net cash costs rose 16 percent in the first half from a year earlier. The copper producer said it paid a one-off signing bonus to employees at its Esperanza facility in Chili after concluding a four-year pay agreement in May.
BHP Billiton Ltd., the world's largest mining company, retreated 2.3 percent to 2,048 pence. Lead, tin and zinc all dropped on the London Metal Exchange.
Compass Group slid 2.5 percent to 983 pence. The food-service company said that full-year operating profit will drop by 92 million pounds ($156 million) and revenue by 1.2 billion pounds if sterling remains at its current levels against the currencies used in Compass's main markets.
Barclays rose 4.2 percent to 228.4 pence after the lender posted a profit of 161 million pounds. It made a loss of 168 million pounds in the same period a year earlier.
Travis Perkins added 2.7 percent to 1,689 pence. The builders' merchant announced an interim payout of 12.25 pence, more than the 11.2 pence Bloomberg Dividend Forecast.

Written by editor Nicole Bennett of Gidget Goes Home.
You may remember back in December that one of the items that we gave away in our awesome Christmas giveaway was a complete set of the Lucky Penny fabric line, designed by the talented Alison Glass.
At the time, I showed you a few rice owls that I made with the fabric, which came out adorable, if I do say so myself. Well, with the fabric I had left (and a bit more that was bought) I had big plans.
Plans that it helps to have a very talented quilting mom to bring to life.
You see, in almost ten years of marriage (this June!), David and I have used a random assortment of handmedown or repurposed (i.e. designed for a smaller bed) quilts along with our beloved down comforter (or rather, my beloved down comforter, since I"m married to a human heater).
As we approach our tenth year of marriage, and after we recently became homeowners, I decided to coax my mom into making us our very own master bedroom quilt.
Read on to see more shots of my beautiful new quilt in progress.
As soon as I saw the Lucky Penny fabrics, I fell in love. I knew it was exactly what I wanted for my bedroom– a full spectrum of color, varied design, something that somehow reflects our fun life and marriage, yet also feels grown-up and modern.
My mom"s been sending me iPhone snapshots as she goes, asking my opinion on the block layout, the cornerstones (we chose the online casino three above) and other options.
The pattern she"s using is called by Quilt in a Day. Luckily she has a big tile floor where she can lay out the blocks for such a big quilt (oversized queen).
This was the first view I got of the top– still missing its borders, but with the lattice and cornerstones between the blocks. I told her it was perfect how the pinkest blocks ended up up on my side of the bed. 🙂
Here"s a close-up of the borders. She did an assorted mix of squares after a skinny white border, and then a thick one with my favorite fabric. I matched the wall paint color in our bedroom to go with this large border background.
It still has to be quilted and bound but you can get the gist of the finished quilt top here. I just LOVE it. I"ve done a bit of quilting in my time, but I"m in a season where simpler, shorter projects fit into life better (so I opted to outsource). Plus, I love the idea of sleeping under an heirloom made with love by my mom.
My mom"s got mad quilting skills. Thanks, Mom!

I read that the best way to store IP addresses in a database is to make an Unsigned Int(10) field. How do I convert the IP addresses using PHP? I've tried using
$this->ip = long2ip($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
But this doesn't seem to work. I found the way to convert it back to an IP address using
$this->ip = sprintf("%u", ip2long($result['ip']));
How do I convert the IP Address initially? Should I be using PHP for this? Or would it be better to integrate into the MySQL query?

I recently updated my OS X to 10.8.4 and updated Firefox to 23.0.1 Now the pinch zoom feature on my trackpad does not work. It works fine in Safari. Will appreciate any suggestions to solve this problem.
You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the about:config page.
Well, the specious answer would be "Use Safari", but that's clearly not very helpful.
I doubt very much that the OS update you mention made a difference, although for peace of mind you might like to step your upgrade to see where the fault was introduced. If you can revert to your previous version of Firefox whilst keeping on 10.8.4 and see if that still works, then you'll know the problem is localised to the new Firefox version.

Reports: Secretary Sebelius resigns; former Walmart Foundation executive next in line
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius has resigned her post, according to published reports.
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius has resigned her post, according to published reports.
Labeed Diab has been named SVP and president health and wellness at Walmart, filling a position previously held by Dr. John Agwunobi, who left the company.
Walmart this week opened its first small format convenience store branded as Walmart To Go in its hometown of Bentonville, Ark.
New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman on Monday joined Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine in leading an effort to persuade the largest pharmacy chains in the United States to stop selling tobacco products.
Walmart, the Walmart Foundation and the United States Conference of Mayors have launched the $10 million Walmart U.S. Manufacturing Innovation Fund.
WalmartLabs, Walmart's online and digital development division, has acquired Seattle-based recipe technology startup Yumprint to expand its online grocery delivery services.
Walmart knew fourth quarter results and its outlook would be weak so it gave investors Thursday morning something more substantial to digest by announcing plans to double the number of small format stores it will open this year and an increased omnichannel focus.
Fresh and pharmacy is the key to smaller-box retailing, Walmart reported Thursday as it announced plans to increase its capital investment in smaller formats from 120 to 150 new stores for the fiscal year to between 270 and 300.
DiversityBusiness.com earlier this month named the "Top 50 Organizations for Multicultural Business Opportunities."

Muncie, IN
Lauren Cohan, who plays Maggie Greene on AMC's The Walking Dead, has been promoted to a series regular for Season 3, TVLine reports, suggesting her character will have a more prominent role now that the survivors have fled Hershel's farm.
Maggie's arc on the hit television series has already diverged from that of her comic-book counterpart, who remained on the farm with Glenn and her family after her father ordered Rick's group to leave. They rejoined the other survivors later at the semi-abandoned prison only when the farm became too dangerous. But in the Season 2 finale, Maggie, Glenn, Hershel and Maggie's half-sister Beth were driven from their farm with the others by a swarming horde of walkers, and will presumably seek refuge in the prison shown looming in the distance during the episode's closing moments.
Cohan joins remaining series regulars Andrew Lincoln, Sarah Wayne Callies, Laurie Holden, Steven Yeun, Chandler Riggs and Norman Reedus. As TVLine notes, however, Cohan's promotion hardly ensures her character's longevity: Jon Bernthal and Jeffrey DeMunn, whose characters were killed off in the final episodes of Season 2, were also regulars.
The Walking Dead returns in October with a 16-episode season that, like the shorter Season 2, will be divided into two parts.
At what point will stop being spoilers to look at Maggie and say, "Looks like you got a crick in the neck."
(Although, I'm guessing it'll be about the time I stop snickering when people ask Rick to "Give me a hand")
Her name is Lauren, not Laura.
*Lauren* Cohan. Come on guys….
Yes, thanks. Brain misfire on my part.
Thanks for the spoilers, Scarletspeed7 you dick.
Man, you've had 5+ years since those events happened in the comic to learn about 'em. I feel no guilt for it.

Ok, one more question for today. I hope...
I want to change the entire background of the website to a uniform white. While I was able to do this easily for the basic background, that still left the .round-div objects to be rendered in white as well. If they are not rendered in white you get the distortion seen here.
Following the advice in this thread, I input the following code into my style.css file:
.round-div {
border: 104px solid #E0FFC1;
However, as was brought up in the aforementioned post, an odd distortion occurs around the featured "photos" when the webpage is resized to "iPad/iPhone" size. Basically the circle is cut off on the right hand and bottom sides. Resulting in a chopped up circle. This only occurs when the page is sized down.
I think I figured out why this was happening, I just don't know how to prevent it. The code for changing the .round-div is spot on. Here is what the code looks like in its original form:
.round-div {
display: block;
transition: all 0.3s ease 0s;
position: absolute;
width: 170px;
height: 170px;
z-index: 99;
border-radius: 900px 900px 900px 900px;
border: 104px solid #E0FFC1;
top: -66px;
left: -54px;
What happens to the best that I can see using "Inspector" in Firefox, is that portions of the above code are supplanted by:
blue.css: 8346
@media (max-width: 976px)
.round-div {
width: 150px;
height: 150px;
border: 94px solid #E0FFC1;
top: -49px;
left: -67px;
Which as best as I can tell the top line is telling the code to supplant the original when the maximum width of the page reaches 976 pixels.
My question is how can I change the above code in both places merely using my Child Theme in order to change the color? Is that even possible, or would I need to make a total copy of the original style.css and make individual changes to both subsections of the code. Thank you again for all the advice and help that has been posted throughout these forums. it has been invaluable.

Volume 12, Issue 6, 01 June 1944
The Mechanism of Copolymerization12(1944); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723934View Description Hide Description
The mechanism of catalytic copolymerization of two monomers A and B is treated with the the aid of steady state approximation. Two initiation and two termination rates are assumed, one for each monomer. Four propagation rates are considered, corresponding to the four possibilities of addition, namely, addition of monomer A to a chain ending in A * or to a chain ending in B * and addition of monomer B to a chain ending in A * or to a chain ending in B *. Over‐all rate and number average molecular weight are calculated. The composition of the polymer and the number distribution curves of groups of submolecules a and of submolecules b are calculated as functions of the monomer composition and two rate constant ratios. These last results are of general character and independent of the nature of the initiation and termination processes provided that the average degree of polymerization is ``high.''
The Asymmetric Rotor II. Calculation of Dipole Intensities and Line Classification12(1944); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723935View Description Hide Description
A table of line strengths for rigid asymmetric rotors is given, by means of which to this approximation the relative intensities of all important rotational lines up to J < 13 for all bands of any molecule can be readily calculated, provided the asymmetry is roughly the same in the initial and final states. A classification of the irregularly spaced lines of the asymmetric rotor is made into ``sub‐branches'' defined by the changes of the K values of the initial level in the limiting prolate and oblate symmetric rotors, and into ``wings'' which collect together lines of the sub‐branches which have uniformly varying strength and Boltzmann factor, and fairly uniform spacing.
Electrical Anisotropy of Xerogels of Hydrophile Colloids Part I12(1944); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723936View Description Hide Description
A number of colloid materials—proteins, plastics, and the like—have been coated in sheet form and ``fibered'' internally by stretching to 100 percent or more elongation. Circular disks were cut from the fibered sheets, and their degree of orientation measured in an (alternating) electric field. Account is given of the relation of the orientation measured to field strength, thickness, humidity, and moisture content. It was observed that induced electrical anisotropy is not shown by all kinds of natural and synthetic colloids; thus it is not shown by organophile xerogels, but only by the hydrophile ones. With most of these the electrical response depends upon the relative humidity and the absorbed water content, but with polyvinyl alcohol the effect was independent of the absorbed water.
Raman Spectra of Hexachloroethane and Hexabromoethane12(1944); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723937View Description Hide Description
Raman frequencies, relative intensities, and depolarization factors are reported for hexachloroethane and hexabromoethane. The relative intensities and depolarization factors were obtained by use of a Gaertner microdensitometer. The fundamental frequencies of hexachloroethane were used to calculate force constants from the equations used by Stitt for ethane. The Raman data indicate that the equilibrium configuration for hexachloroethane is that corresponding to the point group D 3d . The force constants so obtained were then used to calculate the values of the frequencies that are allowed by the selection rules in the infra‐red spectrum. Selection rules for the fundamentals, binary combinations, overtones of non‐degenerate frequencies, and overtones of degenerate frequencies up to the fourth overtone for any molecule whose symmetry is D 3h , D′3h , or D 3d were worked out and are discussed.
Theory of Chain Copolymerization Reactions12(1944); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723938View Description Hide Description
The kinetics of chain copolymerizations is developed for reactions consisting of three steps: first, an activation of stable monomer; second, a growth of activated polymer radical by means of monomer addition; third, a stabilization of the growing chains by (a) monomer addition, (b) by means of growing polymer [Eq. (1)]. The existence of a steady state in respect to the concentration of growing chains beyond the induction period is assumed. The rate constants of growth and termination will in general depend upon the individual composition and upon the nature of the activated chain end. Equations for the rate of change of mole ratio z of the two monomer species are developed in terms of mean rates of growth and termination obtained by averaging the actual rates over the distribution of growing polymer [(4), (4a), (4′)]. The equilibrium conditions lead to a set of difference equations for this distribution [(5), (5′)]. It is investigated whether the solution and results derived therefrom are of a form which permits a determination of the dependence of the rate constants for growth and termination upon the composition of the polymer molecule (6). In addition, the influence of the type of active chain end involved on over‐all rate and size distribution is considered by introducing four constants for propagation and termination, respectively, according to the four possibilities A — A, A — B, B — A, B — B [(6a), (7), (4b), (4b′)], but independent of chain composition. Various special cases according to the relative magnitude of the rates for the two reactants are presented. Experimentally it is difficult to distinguish on the basis of kinetic data between the foregoing mechanism and one in which the rates of growth (and termination) for each of the two kinds of monomer depend solely upon the nature of the monomer molecule added and are independent of the nature of the active chain end [(4c), (4c′), (4c″)]. Relations are derived for the molecular size distribution, the inhomogeneity of the copolymer mixture in regard to composition, the average molecular weight, and the average composition of copolymer as function of the composition of the monomer residue [(8a), (8a′), (9a), (10)]. The importance of these results for soluble and insoluble copolymers and for the theory of gel formation in vinyl‐divinyl type polymers is pointed out.
Polymer Spectra of a Cyanine Dye12(1944); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1723939View Description Hide Description
In dilute aqueous solutions the dye 1,1′‐diethyl‐2,2′‐cyanine chloride, a photographic sensitizer, has two broad molecular absorption bands with maxima at 4900 and 5230A. For a 10−2 molar watersolution at room temperature, which is a gel, a new, intense, and exceedingly narrow absorption and fluorescence band has been found at 5730A by G. Scheibe, and by E. Jelley by other methods. The electric polarization of this band in both absorption and fluorescence is parallel to the long dye polymers formed in the gel. In the present investigation the occurrence and behavior of this ``P band'' were studied for thin dye films deposited on glass from solutions containing water. The P band shifts about 50A to greater wave‐length, becomes broader and weaker, and finally disappears as the water is removed by pumping and/or by increasing the temperature. This behavior is reversible if water vapor is readmitted. The position of the P band enables a measurement of the humidity of the atmosphere surrounding the film. The effect of temperature from −195 to +100°C is described. The P band can be made to appear starting with watersolutions as dilute as 10−5 M by freezing the water, locally concentrating the solution. For dye films, there is observed a second, weaker absorption band (called the P M1 band) at 5430A similar to the P band in structure and behavior but polarized perpendicular to the polymer chains and requiring a higher dye concentration before appearing. Reasons discussed in the paper indicate that the P band is due to single dye polymer chains while the P M1 band should belong to a system of coupled chains lying mutually parallel and forming threads. These threads were observed microscopically. A dehydrated film may contain a fraction of the dye molecules in monomeric form, another fraction (showing only the molecular bands much broadened) in an array anchored to the supporting surface such that the mere addition of water vapor immediately produces the polymer chains with the P and P M1 bands, and the remainder in crystalline form with a broad absorption band at 5650 and a broad fluorescence band at 6200A. Experiments undertaken to determine the number of water molecules per dye molecule necessary for polymerization were only sufficient to determine that the order of magnitude of the ratio is from 1 : 2 to 10 : 1. An attempt is made to interpret the absorption and fluorescence bands of the polymer chains by the hypothesis of exciton migration.

Game FanIt's as if every major flaw of the aging PlayStation platform was meant to be exposed with this game -- from the over pixilated textures to the terrible draw-in distance... this game is just plain fugly.
Some gamers can look past gritty textures and stickmen for the decent gameplay and variety, but the poor control that plagues 007 Racing is hard to resolve.
Spank!One wag referred to this game as the Timothy Dalton, rather than the Sean Connery, of Bond games. Balderdash. This is the George Lazenby - no, wait, the Woody Allen, in that crappy Casino Royale 007 spoof, of Bond games. Licensed to kill? On this evidence, James shouldn't even be licensed to drive.
The ugly graphics make this feel more "On Her Majestys Secret Service" than "Goldfinger."
Da GameboyzWith terrible graphics, unimpressive sound, and mediocre gameplay, this game really doesn't have anything to offer. Of course, the game is capable of providing some fun, you just have to use the CD as a frisbee to experience it.
One of the worst driving titles ever to have graced a videogame platform.

"Sons Of Anarchy" Season Premiere Shocks With Bloody School Shooting Scene
Not even the actors' admission that this season would be the most chaotic and violent season yet of Sons Of Anarchy could have prepared viewers for this. [WARNING: SPOILERS]
1. Sons Of Anarchy's Season 6 premiere opens on a young blond boy, who's never been seen before on the show.
2. He's dressed in a school uniform and sitting in his well-kept bedroom writing in a notebook.
4. The blond child appears like he could be a younger version of SOA's main character, Jax Teller, who narrates over the scene, reading what sounds like a letter to his own two sons.
5. Later in the episode, the boy appears again, dressed in the same clothes. He seems to be on his way to school when he runs into the Sons Of Anarchy motorcycle gang riding through a California suburb.
8. Later, we see the kid again. He's sitting outside the bakery/criminal front owned by Charlie, a newly introduced criminal associate of the Sons.
9. He sits outside reading while Jax and gang discuss a new business opportunity (specifically, a joint escort service venture) inside the shop.
10. Later, when Jax exits the bakery he sees the kid still hanging out and sitting on the sidewalk with the same notebook he was writing in at the opening of the episode.
12. When he notices him, Jax is struck by the boy.
13. Probably, because they look pretty identical.
14. As the episode draws to a close, we encounter the kid once again on his way to school.
15. Before going into the building, he stops at a bench and puts his bag down. Then he neatly, meticulously folds his blazer before sitting down.
16. The boy then rolls up his sleeves to reveal many cuts and scars on his left forearm.
17. He takes out the notebook and starts writing furiously when the bell for class rings…
19. As the school bells chime, the kid pulls a giant machine gun from his backpack.
20. And a huge second magazine.
21. The boy begins to walk away with the gun in hand and spare clip tucked into his back pants pocket. The camera focuses in on his notebook.
27. He walks into his school.
28. Seconds later, as he enters the classroom, an adult male teacher screams and the the audience hears the gun begin to unload as the room lights up and blood splatters against the classroom window.
29. The next scene features all too familiar images. Children being swiftly escorted from the school by SWAT.
30. The heartwrenching face of a parent waiting, agonizingly, for his child to emerge safely from the building.
31. A parent tightly embracing his kid, who luckily got out alive.
32. A distraught and bewildered first responder.
It's important to note that the chaotic scene outside the school after the shooting is not how the episode ends; there's a mostly unrelated montage and other loose ends are tied up. The shocked first responder sitting next to his emergency vehicle is not a cliffhanger.
The kid, as a character, is confusing. He never talks. He never directly interacts with any of the main characters, except that little moment with Jax. And he moves in parallel with the rest of the events of the episode without directly impacting anything…and then he shoots up the school.
What does this all mean?? What we do know is that Kurt Sutter, the creator of the show, was deeply affected by both the Newtown, Connecticut and Aurora, Colorado shootings. Worth noting: Sutter wrote this episode himself, too.
- Some Bernie-or-Busters protested Hillary Clinton's DNC speech, but a tightly organized plan — from coordinated chants to secret allies — kept heckling off TV.
- Two brothers suspected of planning terror attacks have been arrested in Belgium, prosecutors say.
- Four people in Florida are likely the first to contract the Zika virus from mosquitos in the US, the state's governor says.

Caricatures, by their very definition, exaggerate the physical qualities of a person and yet do so in a way that leaves the subject of the caricature entirely recognizable.
Celebrities are some of the most popular subjects of caricatures, primarily because they're so easy to recognize, and often become known for specific physical traits.
Anthony Geoffroy is an illustrator and graphic artist who has created some of the best celebrity caricatures you're likely to see.
He's done caricatures of everyone from Dr. House to Robert De Niro, and he does caricatures of both celebrities and the characters they portray.
In this post, you'll see some of the best Geoffroy has to offer, with caricatures including Bruce Willis, Leslie Nielsen and Stephen King, among many others.
