Heartland's Board Backs Campaign To Smear Climate Science Believers, Even As Eleven Companies Drop Support
ClimateWire published a truly amazing story about Heartland-Gate Friday, "For Heartland board, failed climate attack was a surprise."
On the surface, it is a CYA story where members of the Board assert they did not know in advance about Heartland's now widely condemned campaign to compare climate science believers and reporters to mass 'murderers and madmen'.
But what the story actually does is confirm that the Board stands behind Heartland's ongoing smear campaign — since Heartland hasn't backed off any of its hate speech or apologized for the original ad.
I should say the remaining Board, because as the story notes:
Another director, Robert Lamendola, resigned last Friday because of the ad, according to sources. He's a senior adviser for Renaissance Reinsurance, which terminated its relationship with Heartland over the billboard after giving the organization $407,000 during the past two years.
Every other insurance company and trade group supporting Heartland also cut ties with the group….
Indeed, we learned last week that the insurers expressed "disgust and shock" over the campaign. And just this afternoon, news broke that Eli Lilly, BB&T and Pepsi will no longer support the Heartland Institute. That brings the number of companies dropping Heartland to 11. According to Forecast the Facts, more than 150,000 citizens have weighed in against the organization's messaging strategy.
So while most folks are abandoning Heartland or condemning its actions, here's what we learn about the Board:
According to three people with knowledge of Heartland's campaign, the surprise ad comparing Unabomber Ted Kaczynski to advocates of reducing greenhouse gases prompted a sudden conference call last Friday between the board and the group's president, Joe Bast. The call occurred hours after the electronic billboard became active Thursday afternoon. The ad was canceled before rush hour Friday.
One director on the 14-member board disassociated himself from the failed campaign when asked whether he was comfortable with the message of the highway advertisement….
"Since the billboard thing happened, we're on the same page moving forward," said the board member. "Whatever Heartland is saying at this point, I think we're all in concert with."
The remaining Board is on the same page with "whatever Heartland is saying at this point." That's really a bombshell because Heartland's website makes clear:
- Heartland refuses to apologize for the billboards.
- Heartland is saying now exactly what they said before the billboard was taken down — some of the most extreme speech ever seen from a global warming denial group, including this absurd assertion, "the most prominent advocates of global warming aren't scientists. They are murderers, tyrants, and madmen."
Since the Board has apparently endorsed it, Heartland's detailed rationalization for its campaign is worth quoting at length once again since it is so self-discrediting for the whole organization:
Billboards in Chicago paid for by The Heartland Institute point out that some of the world's most notorious criminals say they "still believe in global warming" – and ask viewers if they do, too…
The billboard series features Ted Kaczynski, the infamous Unabomber; Charles Manson, a mass murderer; and Fidel Castro, a tyrant. Other global warming alarmists who may appear on future billboards include Osama bin Laden and James J. Lee (who took hostages inside the headquarters of the Discovery Channel in 2010).
These rogues and villains were chosen because they made public statements about how man-made global warming is a crisis and how mankind must take immediate and drastic actions to stop it.
Why did Heartland choose to feature these people on its billboards?
Because what these murderers and madmen have said differs very little from what spokespersons for the United Nations, journalists for the "mainstream" media, and liberal politicians say about global warming….
The point is that believing in global warming is not "mainstream," smart, or sophisticated. In fact, it is just the opposite of those things. Still believing in man-made global warming – after all the scientific discoveries and revelations that point against this theory – is more than a little nutty. In fact, some really crazy people use it to justify immoral and frightening behavior.
Of course, not all global warming alarmists are murderers or tyrants.
Seriously. The Heartland Institute — and apparently its Board — still wants you to know that not every single climate scientist — nor every member of the over 120 governments who sign off on the IPCC assessment reports nor every reporter who writes accurately — is like a psychopath.
And yet they still write:
The people who still believe in man-made global warming are mostly on the radical fringe of society. This is why the most prominent advocates of global warming aren't scientists. They are murderers, tyrants, and madmen.
Has there ever been a more insidious attack in this country on scientists and reporters — and millions of Americans who are alarmed and concerned about global warming based solely on what the science actually says?
As Climate Central put it, "Heartland Institute Jumps the Shark."

- INTERNAL DOCUMENTS: The Secret, Corporate-Funded Plan To Teach Children That Climate Change Is A Hoax
NOTE: ThinkProgress is among several publications to have published documents attributed to the Heartland Institute and sent to us from an anonymous and then unknown source. The source later revealed himself. The AP worked to independently verify the documents and concluded, "The federal consultant working on the classroom curriculum, the former TV weatherman, a Chicago elected official who campaigns against hidden local debt and two corporate donors all confirmed to the AP that the sections in the document that pertained to them were accurate. No one the AP contacted said the budget or fundraising documents mentioning them were incorrect." Heartland Institute has issued several press releases on the documents.

The Heartland conference schedule can be found here.
A few months ago, Neil Degrasse Tyson was on Real Time with Bill Maher, arguing with the former chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, who is a climate denier.
At the end of the conversation, Tyson says, well, now you can bet on it.
To which I said, "Wait. What?"
And sure enough, there's Intrade's climate markets, where we can all put our money where our mouths are, every month and every year, on global temperature anomalies.
I encourage everyone to encourage the skeptics to go bet, because there is an odd absence of sellers. Perhaps the Heartland Institute would like to know how they can make their board members even wealthier.
LOL. Keynote speaker is Joe Bastardi!
Nothing says PANIC quite like that billboard campaign and their inability to retract something as hate-filled and obviously wrong as: "The people who still believe in man-made global warming are mostly on the radical fringe of society. This is why the most prominent advocates of global warming aren't scientists. They are murderers, tyrants, and madmen."
Sheer utter PANIC. This isn't talking from a position of strength. It is pure ugly desperation.
As Hansen points out, we are now hitting the tipping point in global warming where extreme weather become obvious and attributable to fossil fuel emissions even by everyday folks.
Panic is justified by the core of the denial movement as they know society is just one or two more nasty weather events from turning on them.
I'm rather less sanguine. I see this as a typical Rightwing purge. The prevaricators and secret 'liberals' are, naturally, repulsed, and leave the group. The ideological commitment of the remaining core membership is hardened, and the parameters of their groupthink is pushed even further to the hate-filled extreme Right. The flow of Kochtopus moolah will not be reduced. The tactic of total opposition, total rejectionism, the 'Iron Wall' of refusing to deal with the despised Other or compromising at all is proving a successful tactic for the Hard Right, because, while it 'incentivises' the very worst die-hards, it actually demoralises the opposition. Dealing with hardcore thugs, who refuse to debate or discuss, who dismiss you as evil,lying, conspirators, who are winning through these villainous tactics, and by so doing are making auto-genocide of our species certain, is the most demoralising experience imaginable. Worst of all is imagining the very near future as the climate disasters really kick in and speculating as to what the reaction of the Rightwing genocidaires will be.
One would think that people like the Kochs would fight better when they are beaten. Instead, they panic, falling apart before our eyes, and showing the world what they have been all along,
Clear sky noon projection for Hawaii UV rays is at 12 for today.
That's extreme.
Better to keep your eyesight. Science is determining the why of UV damage being permanent and cumulative over time.
There is another possibility. While it is inconvenient to lose some of the corporate sponsors that have left, the real money behind Heartland is coming from the fossil fuels energy companies. These companies have more than enough cash to make up from any loss in funding. The real goal of Heartland is climate change disinformation to thwart political action. This latest smear campaign may not have been effective, but they are not going to back away from anything they say about climate scientists, no matter how much beyond the pale. It is in their DNA.
The stakes are too high for the dirty energy companies for them to behave like rational beings. Their only ethic is money. What their actions do to the planet and future generations is of no concern to them.
We need to look at these dirty energy corporations as predators and treat them as such.
I agree, Dave. A local prosecutor from a state like Vermont or Minnesota should bring charges of public endangerment.
Canadian Government run by Kochs….

Must-Cry Video? Watch WestJet Airline's 'Christmas Miracle'
Some Scrooges will say, "Bah humbug, it's just a public relations stunt."
But come on, give this video a view and then try to tell us it didn't tug your heartstrings at least a little bit. We bet some of you will tear up, too. The video's been getting a lot of attention since landing on YouTube last weekend.
According to Canada's WestJet Airlines, more than 250 passengers on two recent flights to Calgary got to talk to Santa Claus before boarding. Then, when they arrived at their destination, the fliers were surprised to find the gifts they'd asked for at baggage claim. The presents included a big-screen TV, toys, clothes and an Android tablet. WestJet workers and volunteers had fanned out to get the goodies before the planes landed.
What's more, WestJet said that if the video got more than 200,000 views it would donate free flights to a family in need. As of Thursday morning, the view count was near 13 million and WestJet was saying it "will be working with Ronald McDonald House Charities Canada to select a family to donate flights to."
Oh, and you Scrooges may be interested to know that experts tell Global News that WestJet isn't likely to get a big boost in business from any good will it generates.
"Typically we shop, when we travel, on price — as opposed to brand," Queen's School of Business professor John-Kurt Pliniussen tells the news site.

Things like this expose the special kind of ignorant perspective of the people we are dealing with.

We've had a few threads on the subject of dealing with the antis and how to respond to their talking points. This link is to a DailyKos thread titled Let's Play Bingo. I would like to request that everyone please take a look at it and if you do please, be sure to read the comments. One might ask why you should bother going to a Progressive site. The answer is twofold. One, the post contains about 50 or so valid arguments for gun rights that are worth making note of. The second is to appreciate a superb work of satire in that the anti's are claiming that the gun rights people keep saying the same stupid things, while giving a laundry list of valid reasons.
Things like this expose the special kind of ignorant perspective of the people we are dealing with.
Know Guns, Know Safety, Know Peace.
No Guns, No Safety, No Peace.
Know your enemy.
Heaven goes by favor. If it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in.- Mark Twain
I like the FBI Statistics; You are more likely to be killed by a hammer, hands & fist, or struck by lightning then be killed by any kind of rifle.
Help me fill out theirs:
Gunho (2).jpg
Just like theirs, center square is free... They will ALWAYS use that one!
It could be worse!
I suppose
Right off the top of my head I can think of several more:
- All gun owners are responsible until their not
- registration and insurance are required for cars
- You should bear the costs to society for your hobby
- That's just an NRA talking point
- That's a straw man or ad hominem argument
- Why is it not a serious felony to accidentally discharge a firearm
- Why is it not a serious felony to have your firearms stolen and end up in the wrong hands
- The ones who fight to bear arms, fight even harder NOT to keep arms. The gun owner is the only one who can control his gun.
- i really, seriously don't think the grenades, semiautomatics, clips, magazines are required for self protection.
- Our kids grow up to believe guns are a solution
- congress and their NRA backers banned the CDC from considering firearms as a public health issue
- the nra control of the narrative is over.
- the polls show 2-1 support even for an assault weapons ban, nationally, with majority support even in states like maine and new hampshire and north carolina and pennsylvania and michigan and colorado and oregon, which have large numbers of gun owners. and enormous support for universal background checks, everywhere.
- 2A absolutists, we, the majority of Americans, will not have any more of your "rights" insofar as they compromise the very lives of our children and ourselves, in schools, churches, playgrounds, et cetera
The latter came from various comments here: Daily Kos: Pardon me, you have your freedom in my responsibility where there are plenty more to choose from.
Majority of public mass shooting in the U.S. has occurred in a place
where civilians are banned from carrying firearms.
Sounds like the gun free zones should be abolished.
Some of these people have gotten so angry, including at me, that they have been following me to other forums like this one to try to find dirt to sling at me.
The thing is, anti-gunners just don't think like pro-gunners. I've studied these people when they talk. There thought processes are bizarre and incongruent with my thought processes. Even when I get where they are coming from, I still don't get how they got where they are.

Grimm Says He Didn't Mean to Fund-raise on Syria Flip-Flop
Says a contractor put that part in.
U.S. representative Michael Grimm, a Republican who represents Staten Island and Brooklyn, said on Saturday he supported a U.S. military strike in Syria, but on Thursday he changed his position and withdrew his support, saying the window for action had passed. That's not so unusual — people change their minds, positions develop, and so on. What was odd about Grimm's move was that he followed it up with an e-mail to his campaign's list that included two pleas for a $25 donation based on the change in position. Grimm obviously thinks that's odd, too, because his spokeswoman is blaming it on a third-party contractor and says Grimm is "furious" about the fund-raising links.
"The email was intended to be a message to supporters informing them of the congressman's withdrawal of support for a strike on Syria," said spokesman Carol Danko. "The dollar ask was included automatically by the vendor, and was never approved by the congressman. He is furious over this inappropriate inclusion and has taken appropriate actions to ensure that this careless error never happens again."
As the Hill points out, Grimm is one of Congress's more vulnerable members, having won by just five points in 2012 in a district that also voted for Obama. So he can't really afford to make gaffes. And it would appear Grimm, who has been accused of shady fund-raising in the past, considers this "careless error" to be one.

moreYukio Mishima's The Decay of the Angel is the final novel in his masterful tetralogy, The Sea of Fertility. It is the last installment of Shigekuni Honda's pursuit of the successive reincarnations of his childhood friend Kiyoaki Matsugae.
It is the late 1960s and Honda, now an aged and wealthy man, once more encounters a person he believes to be a reincarnation of his friend, Kiyoaki — this time restored to life as a teenage orphan, Tōru. Adopting the boy as his heir, Honda quickly finds that Tōru is a force to be reckoned with. The final novel of this celebrated tetralogy weaves together the dominant themes of the previous three novels in the series: the decay of Japan's courtly tradition; the essence and value of Buddhist philosophy and aesthetics; and, underlying all, Mishima's apocalyptic vision of the modern era.

Hi all,
I am flying Frankfurt > Shanghai on April 4 (flight CA936) and Shanghai > Frankfurt on April 10 (flight CA935). The flight isn't listed on the Air China website but I have a confirmed reservation in economy.
Air China doesn't appear to offer online check-in, nor is there a seat map available on the Air China website. With this in mind, can any of your recommend a good seat (i.e. with extra legroom) on the Air China A340s? I want to try to get a confirmed seat reservation from the Air China Frankfurt office but need to have specific seat numbers to do so...
Thanks for any help you can provide!
Best regards

Interface class c#
07:35 by Anjan Kant
IntroductionInterface class is an entity only not a class. Interface classes cannot be implemented. Interface class can be used in sub classes. Interface class cannot be instantiated. Interfaces class is used in asp.net (C#) because ASP.Net has not ability of multiple inheritances so interface classes are introduced with great deal. With interface classes application become very robust & very flexibility in the application. Interfaces class is very beneficial when we are using small units of functions, in other way abstraction can be used when large units of functions are used. A keyword "Interface" is used to define the class. Interface class is used in sub classes. Interface class has the ability to signature implementation. An interface class has not access modifiers, everything is assumed public.
An interface class can be member of namespace or class can. Interface class can contain signatures for the following members.
i) Members
ii) Indexers
iii) Properties
iv) Events
A class should implement interface members are specified in interface class. An example is given below to clear more view about interface class
Interface AbcInterface { Void TestMethod(); } Class Test: AbcInterface { Void samplemethod() { //method implementation } Static Void Main() { //Declaring the interface instance AbcInterface obj = new Test (); //Calling the member Obj. TestMethod(); } }

About This Character
- Summary
- Biography
A character from the Pokémon videogame series.
Ho-Oh is a character from the Pokémon videogame series.
The original Pokémon RPGs had their collection of three famous "legendary birds." Their successors, Pokémon Gold & Silver, introduced three "legendary beasts" instead, but they also brought in another legendary bird as well – Ho-Oh, the cover star of Pokémon Gold.
Ho-Oh is even rarer than most of its fellow legendary monsters. It is almost never seen – ever since a war in the distant past, so the story goes, Ho-Oh has kept its distance from human civilization. Those few who have claimed to spot it, though, say it resembles a massive bird with a crown-like crest and a bold pattern of feathers in seven bright colors. Those feathers capture the light, causing Ho-Oh to trail a sparkling rainbow behind it as it flies.
Like its opposite number, Lugia, Ho-Oh can acquire many powerful Psychic attacks, in addition to its fire abilities. Also like Lugia, it has a signature skill that no other monster can learn. Sacred Fire deals large amounts of fire damage, and has a better chance than most attacks of burning its target.
Ho-Oh's name comes from the Japanese word for the mythical east Asian phoenix, known in Chinese as "fenghuang." In folklore, the ho-oh is the king of all birds, made up of parts from many well-known bird species (as well as many colors, like Pokémon's Ho-Oh), and is venerated as a symbol of great virtue and the union of opposing forces.

Baffin Snogoose
Manufacturer's Description
Retailers' Descriptions
Here's what other sites are saying:
Two feet of snow fell last night and temps reached -20F, but you're not worried because you have the Baffin Women's Snogoose Winter Boots. Their seven-layer inner liners and Thermaplush insulation keep feet toasty down to -40 degrees, the temperature where Fahrenheit meets Celsius. Baffin's aggressive rubber sole provides excellent traction in slippery conditions, and the Snogoose Winter Boots also include a top cinch to completely seal them when you have to walk through knee-deep snow. Just slip your feet into these warm boots, close them up with their one-pull lacing system, and enjoy winter.
- Backcountry.com
Comfort rated to -40degF, these multifunction Baffin Snogoose winter boots are lightweight and comfortable to handle long, active winters.
CLOSEOUTS . Warm, waterproof and easy to adjust, Baffin Snogoose winter boots are the solution for snowy trudges to the mailbox or extended outdoor adventures in frigid temps. Available Colors: BLACK/ELECTRIC BLUE. Sizes: 6, 7.
- Sierra Trading Post
With perhaps a nod towards moon boots, the Women's Baffin Snogoose Snow Boots provide a stylish alternative to traditional leather pacs. Comfort rated to -40 degrees F, this boot uses a 900-denier cordura upper with a built in gaiter for wet weather protection. Inside, the 7-layer removable liner with Thermaplush for warmth and wicking provides insulation. A cold resistant EVA midsole supplies cushy support, as does the TPR rubber outsole with its integrated arch. It's hard to be fashionable when battling negative double-digit temperatures, but at least the Snogoose Snow Boots for women from Baffin give you a fighting chance.
- Altrec Outdoors
Baffin Snogoose
previously retailed for:
$41.97 - $119.95
$41.97 - $119.95
The Baffin Snogoose is not available from the stores we monitor. It was last seen July 23, 2016 at REI.

Well Vader and Palpatine survived the force blast at the end. Maybe Marek did as well and Vader just assumed he was dead. (But then if he was alive they would since his life force.)
Of course Vader could have used the force to conceal Marek's life so he could heal him again.
Though in the SW EU it is not unheard of for one with the force to cheat death. A few sith (Darth Anddedu) were able to sustain there life beyond death. It's possible that Marek learned something similar, perhaps as a force ghost.
One thing I would have to say is that I don't think the time period will be set before or during the time of TFU, but after it. Because as far as we know since Vader took him in as a young boy, he had been training under Vader as a Sith apprentice. Why would he, during that time, be at an arena fighting with twin blu sabers? Also to point out that in the trailer it shows him using an incredible amount of force lightning, he was not that powerful until closer to the end of TFU.

Is all javascript the right way?
Hi all,
I'm new to the Sencha/Ext.js way of doing things all in JavaScript. On first impressions it seems to be anti-spirit of the web where you would structure your document using HTML and then append behaviour by using JavaScript.
At the moment the API appears to be non-obvious and truthfully to me it looks like a lock-in strategy since the code we write is heavily binded to the Ext.js API and not portable. Is there any technical reason for going with this approach?
Also how well does Ext.js work with other js frameworks such as the google closure library?
28 Sep 2010 3:45 AM #2
I tried for a long time to write code "in the spirit of the web", and eventually I had to conclude that the Ext approach is the right one. HTML is too low-level to structure application user interfaces in. You need to abstract it as components and layout systems in order to develop features faster. Ext basically is a higher-level language to build your programs in. Would you complain that a PHP app is not portable because it is bound to PHP?
Ext isn't the only approach though. ASP.NET offers a different way of abstracting (server-side instead of client-side). Zend Framework does something similar for PHP. GWT even abstracts away the JavaScript language by letting you write Java programs that become web apps. The point is that without a level of abstraction, you end up wasting a lot of development hours messing with details that are irrelevant to the feature you are building.
28 Sep 2010 4:06 AM #3
So compared to other frameworks that adhere to the spirit of the web, i.e. jQuery, Prototype, Closure Library, etc. It is much easier to port a widget you've created to work across with these frameworks.
>>Would you complain that a PHP app is not portable because it is bound to PHP?
Yeah not the same thing - PHP is a programming language. Your equivalent argument would be "your JavaScript app is not portable because its bound to JavaScript".
ASP.NET, Zend, etc are server-side web frameworks (and not relevant here) they are all capable of generating framework-agnostic client JavaScript. GWT takes the approach it does because they believe that having a statically language to generate JavaScript has proven benefits.
I still don't understand the reason for the unique approach taken by Ext.js. The web is a great development platform by design, the semantic HTML markup, can easily be styled by CSS and manipulated by JavaScript. They are essentially DSL's for their respective roles in building a UI. Ext.js has literally taken out the HTML element and replaced it with a proprietary API.
I just want to understand before I commit to this library its reasons for doing so, and advantages it has over the conventional approach, etc. As I said earlier I'm concerned that this is a lock-in tactic.
28 Sep 2010 4:49 AM #4
PHP is more an API than a language, given its many thousands of functions. It's easy to migrate PHP syntax to Python using semi-automated scripts, but migrating actual code is impossible because of all the PHP-specific functions. Just like PHP's selling point is the API's it exposes, Ext's selling point is the same.
jQuery and prototype are the browser abstraction subset of what Ext does (Ext can run on top of jquery), but not the DOM abstraction. The components built on top of those platforms live in isolation from each other, and applications designed using them are very DOM-oriented when dealing with actual business logic. Ext puts one more level of abstraction on top of the DOM so you can think in terms of Stores, Components and pure business logic. Depending on where you stand this is either ingenious or blasphemous.
The unique approach of Ext is doing the same thing ASP.NET does, abstract away the DOM to a higher-level API, but it does it in pure JavaScript, without a server-side component. The advantage is that client/server communication channels can be more tightly controlled, which can be convenient for security, performance, offline, ...
If you don't see the value, then by all means, don't use it. There is no such thing as a "one size fits all" toolkit. Ext may be the wrong choice for you. It happened to be the right choice for me.

Those libraries are different.
jQuery is merely a set of foundation classes like Ext Core.
There's no point using any textual HTML at all. It does not offer any advantage to send down limited bandwidth a whole load of "<" blah bla + ">" text, and then in a second pass, crawl over that, setting up some homegrown object model to "activate" the resultant DOM.
Face it, applications now are DOM applications. The fact that you once created a DOM using "<" thingies is irrelevant.
It's the resulting DOM, and how it is managed that is important.
And Ext offers the best way to create a fluid, managed DOM application.Search the forum: http://www.google.com/coop/cse?cx=01...%3Az7of1ufqccu

>>PHP is more an API than a language
Seriously I hope we don't get side tracked into debating whether PHP is a programming language or not (i.e. it may be interpreted but its still a programming language). Cross-compiling is technically possible and has been done for many different languages. A programming language contains the essence and intent of your program by definition it is tightly-coupled.
ASP.NET (which I've had many years experience with) is another leaky abstraction that I consider that breaks the spirit-of-the-web, Microsoft is learning from problems inherent from their approach and its latest incarnation ASP.NET MVC follows a more natural web development model. For anyone that is interested I've wrote an article highlighting some of these issues here: (http://www.servicestack.net/mythz_blog/?p=251).
Anyway what I'm really wanting to find out is the reason why it's built this way? i.e. what are its advantages?
Maybe its because it enables more control and encapsulation than what is otherwise possible?
>>What spirit would that be?
Not going to be a surprise to anyone here but just to spell it out: The spirit of using semantically correct markup, Style and design applied with CSS and Behaviour applied with JavaScript.

Funny guy is this you?
This is obviously not helpful. I was just after the advantages of the Ext.js approach of owning the whole UI layout rather then the conventional approach of graceful enhancement to existing markup - This will be my 4th time now in just as many posts. I'm not looking to criticize I just want to know the advantages from someone who knows them and the primary reasons for their approach.
>>I don't see your question really.
That's ok lets leave it for someone who does.

The PHP point is not a side-track. You're missing the point that I'm trying to get across if you think it's a side-track. The point is that the API matters. Ext offers a different API than regular DOM / HTML, and this has distinct advantages in development efficiency / program scalability.
Ext makes compromises for this "richer" API. It trades in SEO, and graceful degradation. However, I make apps where those two are irrelevant (login-walled business apps that can assume a specific set of browsers). In my experience the API that ext delivers is not possible using "semantic" HTML without a LOT of very messy code that breaks easily. Semantic HTML is a tool that serves an end (search engine visibility). If the end is not required, semantic HTML is not required. Ext merely draws that conclusion to its extreme.
[update]Graceful degradation does not scale to apps as complex as the ones built with ext. Google docs doesn't do graceful degradation, it merely has separate front-ends for low-powered devices. That's Ext's strength. It drops the low-end to reach the high-end.

I'm not "funny".
I want to know why is there an obsession with creating megabytes of HTML code. Because there's a lot of propaganda which says you must?
The business requires me to create a UI, that's all.
Megabytes of "<" stuff is not good. It's difficult to generate meaningful "<" stuff, and difficult to then make that do anything.
Generating a description of the UI is a lot easier.Search the forum: http://www.google.com/coop/cse?cx=01...%3Az7of1ufqccu

The Bachelorette Emily Maynard & Her Fiancée Jef Holm Look Happy & In Love (Photos)Devan McGuinness
The news is finally out & that means they can be open in love!
With the finale of The Bachelorette on Sunday we all "ooh-ed" and "awww-ed" as Jef Holm got on one knee and proposted to Emily Maynard and she accepted!
The pair were spotted out in one of their first appearances since their show wrapped up and they were all smiles! Leaving a studio in New York after filming a segment on Live! with Kelly. They held hands and smiled and looked well-polished, perfect for all the spotlight.
I wonder what their future will hold once all the media spotlight wears down. I have high hopes that Emily has found a husband and a father-figure for her 6-year-old daughter Ricki.
Click though to see more pictures of Emily and Jef:
So Happy 1 of 5These two are all smiles as they leave a studio in New York.
Polished and Pretty 2 of 5Emily looks her polished self with a sweet blue colored dress.
Clean and Styling 3 of 5Jef has his signature style with his well-fitted suit and those (weird?) boots.
What Does The Future Hold? 4 of 5I have a hope that these two will stay in love and actually get married.
What Do You Think? 5 of 5Do you think these two will be in it for the long haul?

Canadian Jobs Error Was Caused by Botched Program Update
Statistics Canada said the main cause of an incorrect job report earlier this month was a failure by staff to understand that an update to data processing methods triggered wider and unanticipated changes in its flagship survey.
"This change was perceived as systems maintenance and the oversight and governance were not commensurate with the potential risk," said the in-house report commissioned by Chief Statistician Wayne Smith and published today in Ottawa. "Communications among the team, labor analysts and senior management around this particular issue were inadequate."
The review follows the Aug. 15 correction of the July employment report to show a gain of 41,700 instead of an initial estimate of 200 new positions. Since then, Finance Minister Joe Oliver and Bank of Canada Governor Stephen Poloz have expressed confidence in the agency's work.
Statistics Canada said Aug. 15 the mistake was an "isolated incident" that was caused when staff failed to run a computer program that was part of a scheduled update to the survey. Canada's dollar weakened after the initial job report and strengthened when the corrected figures were published.
The incorrect July figures passed a standard review and were presented to senior management before they were published, Statistics Canada said today.
The first time staff realized there could be a problem was Aug. 8, the morning the data were published, the agency said in its report. Statistics Canada analysts then re-ran their calculations and isolated the mistake.
Data Removed
"Once the error and its magnitude were confirmed to the satisfaction of the Chief Statistician on Tuesday August 12, 2014, a decision was taken, as per the agency's Directive on Corrections to Daily Releases and Statistical Products, to remove the erroneous data, to notify the public of the error," the agency said in the report.
The report doesn't explicitly say why it took three days to publish a corrected report after the bad data was retracted.
"The bigger issue was not that a mistake was made, we all make mistakes, but that it was not caught by their process," said Doug Porter, chief economist at BMO Capital Markets, by e-mail. It's "incredibly unfortunate that the error just happened to occur in arguably their highest profile release."
The report makes five recommendations to prevent a repeat of this kind of mistake, in areas of governance, testing protocols, diagnostics, documentation and communication.
"Only time will tell if the five recommendations properly address the fact that the error was not caught," Toronto-based Porter said.
"No employee or group of employees acted inappropriately," Statistics Canada spokesman Fabrice Mosseray said in an e-mail, responding to a question about whether any employees were disciplined. "The report concluded that it was the protocols and procedures that led to the error."

P.S. — How Long Are You Going To Live
Issue: Turned 50? Fail this test and you might not see 54/CNN Health
DFO: I found a cool test that will predict if you're going to be alive in 4 years, based on a test with several easy questions. (BTW, when it has that math problem re: weight and height in which you need a to square your height to divide into your weight, that simply means multiply your height in inches by itself.) My chances of checking out in the next 4 years is only 4 percent. Cool. I might pay the house off yet.
So, go ahead and take the test by following the link above and then the link provided in the article in the third paragraph. Good luck.

Philips Two-in-One dual-display monitor launches
Studies have claimed that using two displays makes you more efficient than using one, and many people find them more comfortable than a single display set up. The problem is how much desk space they take -- having two monitors propped up requires a lot of space, and that's a problem for some, especially those limited to a cubical or other tiny work areas. Enter the Philips Two-in-One monitor, which is exactly what it sounds like: a single monitor made of two displays, conserving desk real estate while increase one's screen space.

Product Description
The Brown & Sharpe 05.20001 dial calipers has a 0 to 6" measurement range with 0.001mm graduations for obtaining outside, inside, step, and depth dimensions for a variety of precision measurement uses. The white face dial has a 0 to 100 counter with one revolution equivalent to 0.1". The dial mechanism has a shockproof movement. The hardened stainless-steel frame and slide are durable, and measuring faces are precision-ground for measuring accuracy. It has a flat depth rod. The dial calipers meet Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN) 862 linear accuracy standards, comes with a fitted plastic case, and is suitable for applications such as quality control for machined parts.
Dial calipers are measuring instruments commonly used for inspection in manufacturing to provide the precise measurements of an object. A pair of jaws attached to a long beam with a marked scale is used to measure inside, outside, and step measurements in standard or metric units. An additional depth probe slides along the beam to take depth measurements. One jaw is fixed to the end of the scale, while the other jaw slides along it to take measurements. A circular dial indicator is fixed to the movable jaw on a toothed gear rack that transfers movement of the jaws to the dial needle. The base measurement is taken from the long beam, which provides the initial whole measurement in inches or centimeters, and added to the dial reading, which provides fractional measurements in inches or millimeters. A locking mechanism provides the ability to take differential measurements for determining the difference in measurements between two objects. Compared to digital calipers, dial calipers are more durable, but are more susceptible to shock damage and prone to getting dirt in the gears, which can cause accuracy problems. Vernier calipers are more durable than dial calipers because they do not have internal moving parts, but they can be more difficult to read. Dial calipers are commonly used in fields such as metalworking, mechanical engineering, machining, and carpentry.
Brown & Sharpe manufactures precision measuring equipment and metrology hand tools. The company, founded in 1833, is headquartered in North Kingstown, RI.

Scenes From a Marriage
For Jane and Me, as for Kim and Kris, It All Went By So Fast
Day 1. Jane is goddess and gamine, cutting the cake in a tapering cream gown, my ring on her finger and frosting on her nose. Have two people ever loved each other so much? I am profoundly happy.
Day 2. Terrible screams and the tearing of hair, our own and each other's. At night, shuddering, sibilant recriminations. Did I openly mock her favorite aunt at dinner? It's possible—I'd had a lot of wine and I hate that aunt. Did we just make the biggest mistake of our lives?
Day 3. Finally had that knee replaced. Jane and I are good, but every time Caleb lurches past me trying to text his friends, I burn up. How do you buy a toddler a Droid? "He wanted it so bad," Jane says, in a hollow tone. "I can't discuss this now," she says, "I have a deposition in the morning." I look at her, and that's when I know. She is sleeping with the litigator in suspenders.
Day 4. We are like two ghosts passing through the ether, who cannot see themselves or each other. She makes Caleb and Harry breakfast. I go to the parent-teacher conference. We carry on. But for how long?
Day 5. Couples counseling, juice fasts, feeling better about ourselves. It comes out, my fling at CES, I don't know how, perhaps the juice fast. Jane has left me. I'm not sure when that happened.
Day 17. Getting your AARP card and a gout diagnosis—that is one bad quarter-hour. Jane came back without a word, around half past four. For a time we were excited to be together again. We would cross the park hand in hand. Now she feels "lost," mutters about "irreconcilable differences," appears to have come unglued. "How am I going to have my career while living in Minnesota?" she cries out. I wouldn't worry about it, I say, unless and until we are living in Minnesota. Terrible screams and the tearing of hair, our own and each other's. At night, shuddering, sibilant recriminations.
Day 23. We're empty-nesters and, suddenly, in love again. Sprawled on the rug in a shaft of light on Sundays, Jane goes through the recycling pile and reads me Thomas Friedman in a Castilian accent. I give her foot massages. The boys come over every few weeks with the little ones. Harry had both knees replaced, Caleb a hip. Football-playing family.
Day 48. Recovering from the requisite red-meat American heart attack, I spend mornings writing code on the couch. Jane is teaching torts twice a week at Fordham. Are we together out of love, loyalty or gravity? The doorbell rings and I am served.. There was a baby, now a captain at JetBlue. JBLU 1.03 % It's never just a fling at CES.
Day 61. Did she become a man because she was "trapped in a woman's body," as she explained, or to hurt me? I have to wonder, since she ratcheted back to a woman before the final phase. That's a lot of hormone injections when we needed to replace the roof. "Isn't it the sort of thing you wanted to be sure of?" I ask her one night. She just hides inside her giant McCullough. I turn out the lights and say, "G'nite, Jane John Jane."
Day 62. I'm at Trader Joe's now, offering a choice of paper or plastic, something to do with the economy. I always saw myself whittling.
Day 63. The litigator in suspenders is back in the picture, now as her counsel. I told her, I'm game for the divorce, you don't need this guy, but I think it satisfies her appetites for irony and drama. Irama.
Day 72. "I think," Jane says, "when you know so deep in your heart that you just have to listen to your intuition, and your heart, there's no right or wrong thing to do." I guess.

"I ordered these invitations for my twin sons' baptism. I was very happy with the quality of the paper, the design, the font used. I did not make any changes to the sample online, only personalized it with our information. Everyone who received the invitation commented how pretty it is. Not very many twin baptism invitations out there and especially invitations without pictures so I was very pleased to have found and ordered these. Great quality for the price."
"I was looking for nice invite for my son's baptism. This one was nice, and had the colors I was looking for which went well with the color of the blanket in his photo. The professional photo made the card complete!"
"We used the recommended fonts with a ticket trim on the premium double thick card paper. We have twins, so we ordered 2 sets of these invitations and we are extremely pleased with the finished look, especially for the low price. The gold metallic envelopes perfectly complement the khaki background on the light blue cross."
"I ordered this card for my sons baptism in the extra thick paper. Quality is excellent and took only one week to be printed and delivered to Australia. Also was very easy to order online. I would highly recommend Tiny Prints and would definitely use them again."
"I am very impressed with this invitation for our son's baptism. I love the design, as well as the actual wording of the invitation. The one change I made was to do rounded edges instead of scalloped edges, as the scalloped edges were a little too "girly" for my husband's taste, and I agree now that I see the finished product! I also like that the pearlized paper matches the pearlized envelopes perfectly. I only wish there were matching Thank You notes for after the Baptism...."

Well, here I am again, sorry for my little knowing, perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but I don't know what.
So, I want to use CDN self hosted, so I make a subdomain (static.pajareo.com) to host all the images and stuff. My web is http://www.pajareo.com
I put that (static.pajareo.com) on CDN tab and pass the test. I enable CDN self hosted, and when I go to "Importing attachments..." a window pops up and tell me that I have
Total posts: 1398
and I have more than 3000 and more than half with an image...
But when the import thing begins to work I've found
File type rejected or
External file import is disabled
I'm also don't know what is the meaning of
Create a list of redirects to CDN (hostname specified in hostname field #1.)
Should I mark that or not?
When process is done, no .htaccess changes are suggested and no files are dropped into static.pajareo.com
So I've disabled CDN sel-hosted option until anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong...
Thanks in advance for your time and patience

I had a couple of websites running different wordpress versions for a while, but it was turning a bit hard.
So I did some research and tried migrating one website to a fresh 3.5.1 MU install using domain mapping.
The issue now, it's that the "attachment" system it's not working and thing like gallery or
get_the_post_thumbnail() functions aren't working either. Also even when I can see the images on the "media library" when trying to pick a featured image nothing happens, the blue button stays there, instead showing the thumbnail.
I basically did this:
1. Exported the database through sql
2. Check which id my new site had (2)
3. Search and replace with a text editor
wp_ into
4. Import the tables into the database
5. As the "Changing Site Url" codex article said, I changed the url for the uploads
post_content inside
new_2_posts, from
.../uploads/year/month/day to
I found the previously described problem, and then I tried to change the "guid" (also, as the article pointed out).
I'm really lost right now, because direct links works, and the galleries for example I can only see the links pointing to the new location, clicking the link actually shows the image.
Any clue on what could be happening?

lol I gave this a run tonight for the first time, just to fill in a bit of time. Was freakin hilarious, server full of strange little boys and girls lol. Shoot them twice on different ends of the map...get called a camper...get around behind them when they persist on camping the hell out of the same spot everytime, and they are amazed!!! And then when you do it 5 more times they are still bewildered that you would do such a thing...lol lol lol lol I am going to keep playing just to own their silly little hides....
....this is why I joined TOG, and play on TOG servers, to avoid these worms and there carry-ons lol but it sure was fun...

I quit cold turkey a few days ago when the gameplay on some very lowly ranks were just too good to be true. I also wasn't impressed with the very bad lag where someone appears as tho they are teleported to a spot and then kills you without you having time to even react. I have had too many years of this sort of frustration and have no intention in being a butt monkey for those with super connections and hax.
Nice idea of having central servers that you can access but for me at least, my connection quality creates more frustration than fun.

Yeah, hacker, camper or even worse noob camper lol havent tried 'hacking noob aussie camper' yet lol
It needs a lot, and I mean a lot of work before i would consider it good to go. Even just map design needs work, soooo easy to get around and spawn camp if one so desired....and one map..cant remember the name is so small you could almost camp their spawn without leaving your own spawn area lol
I will keep an eye on it, see how it goes...if it improves then great, a nice little free shooter that one can waste an hour here or there when one doesnt have the concentration to play anything else more serious....if not..no great loss, plenty of other titles out there...

What I did find though is as soon as you get off the Recruit servers and onto the regular servers, a lot of the crap dropped. However the last time I really played was during the Beta, I guess the kiddies have had a chance to infiltrate the regular servers by now

It's got an interracial midget scene, so there's the recommendation hook.
This is the kind of porn - especially interracial porn - that people who don't like the industry point at as proof that it's all cheap shit shot in an inexpensive motel room by people who don't know that they're doing and just want to make a cheap buck.
A black midget calls a bored white girl a bitch, demands money and makes her suck his cock. It goes down hill from there. Lisa Sparxxx looks bored during her threeway. Everything else is by the numbers and largely uninspired. Speaking of numbers, it's a bit short of its promised "2 hours of hot white girls craving black cock."
The still gallery features a lot of grainy, fuzzy images that quiver.

h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, h2 a, h3 a, h4 a, h5 a, h6 a {
color: #000000 !important;}
But I can't figure out where it's coming from! (the page is http://baseball-insider.com/baseball-instruction/first-base/first-base-positioning-for-relays/ if you want to look. The h3 is the subheading just below the page title.
For the source of the style, firebug just gives me the page url.
I'm so confused. Any ideas?

I just got a job as a structural engineer for a small firm that designs and builds modular gun ranges. I mainly need help with snow, wind, and seismic loads from ASCE, and modeling applying these loads to our structures in an analysis program. The structures we build are all pretty simple.- Michael from Sugar Land, TX
