Britain is to build a commercial spaceport that will be used to launch manned missions and commercial satellites.
It is planned to have the spaceport operating by 2018.
A list of eight locations for the spaceport - which could be used by Virgin Galactic and the US company XCOR to launch space tourism flights - has been drawn up by the Government and will be announced this week. Several sites around the country have been linked to the plan and are being studied by officials.
Experts believe locations could include the north of Scotland, Bristol, Norfolk and the Outer Hebrides.
The first of these possible sites - Lossiemouth on the Moray coast of Scotland - is already home to a helicopter rescue centre and has been pinpointed by Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic as a desirable site for launching its spaceplanes, a proposal that has been backed enthusiastically by the Scottish National Party.
Virgin Galactic's first flights are set to take off from a purpose-built spaceport in New Mexico at the end of the year but Virgin says it wants to open spaceports in other countries.
Another prospect is Filton Airfield, near Bristol. British-built Concordes flew out of Filton, and the base was also used to station Britain's fleet of Vulcan bombers during the Cuban missile crisis in 1962.
"Both Virgin Galactic and the California company XCOR are building spaceplanes that will take off like planes, which could make airfields like Filton very attractive to them," said Nick Spall, of the British Interplanetary Society.
Another consideration that will affect spaceport plans is the involvement of inventor Alan Bond, whose company Reaction Engines is developing a re-usable spaceplane called Skylon.

On a good day, George Volkov of Griswold could sell his 1992 Jeep Cherokee Laredo for a couple of hundred dollars.
Imagine his reaction when the assessment on his rust-bucket - with more than 280,000 miles - jumped from $1,590 to $5,200 this year.
The assessment at 70 percent fair retail value of $1,590 was pretty bad, but at $5,200 it is ludicrous, says Volkov, a retired engineer who teaches computer science at Three Rivers Community College in Norwich.
At the tax rate of 26 mills,Volkov said, the difference between what he has to pay in taxes on the car this year compared to last year is only about $200.
"It's not a major financial issue," said Volkov. "It's a matter of principle."
Volkov contacted town assessor Leslie Kornosewicz who explained to him that by state law, she has to set the assessment at 70 percent of fair retail value as stated in the National Automobile Dealers Association guide.
The problem is that the NADA guide for regular vehicles only goes back 20 years. After that vehicles, 21 years or older are placed in the classic category, and are considered to have higher value.
That is fine for a car in great condition, Volkov argued with the assessor, but his vehicle has dents, large rusted areas and the paint is peeling.
"There is nothing classic about this car," Volkov insists. "I'm just trying to get the last few miles out of it before heading to the junkyard."
The assessor told him that he would have to appeal the assessment in September.
Volkov contacted assessors in three neighboring towns and he said they told him they would be more reasonable in their assessment if the vehicle were in their towns.
He asked CTWatchdog to check whether his assessor was being reasonable.
I contacted Stuart Topliff, Rocky Hill's assessor who also is president of the Connecticut Association of Assessing Officers. Topliff agreed with the Griswold assessor.
"We are bound by state law," Topliff said.
And state law says all assessors are required to use the same guide to set the assessment - the NADA.
If the owner of the vehicle believes it is not worth the assessed amount, they may file an appeal. Each September, every town in the state conducts appeals hearings on car assessments, he said. And if the vehicle is not in good shape, the appeals board can take that into consideration, Topliff said.
Volkov says he was hoping to resolve the issue prior to Aug. 1 when his tax payment was due. But now, he says, he will appeal in September, and if he is not satisfied he will file a legal challenge in court.
"This is idiotic," he said.

Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health
Teaching the Food System
A Project of the Johns Hopkins Center for a Livable Future
The following modules span topics from field to plate, emphasizing the relationships between food, public health, equity and the environment. The material is focused on issues in the U.S. food system but also touches on some of their global implications. Though we suggest teaching the modules sequentially, they can be used in any order, either independently or as part of a series. The sequence of modules roughly follows the food supply chain from field to plate. Read more about the curriculum.
We recommended students become familiar with key vocabulary terms before beginning each lesson. These activities are designed for use with the list of definitions provided in each module.
After reflecting on the roles food plays in their lives, students will follow the stages along the supply chains of several foods from field to plate. They will explore the relationships between food, health, justice and the environment and depict them on posters and graphic organizers.
The food system has experienced more changes in the past century than it had over the previous 10,000 years. Students will follow the transition from pre-agricultural societies to the prevailing industrial food system. They will create timelines and graphs depicting long-term trends.
Students will trace the ingredients of a meal back to their origins in the soil, reflecting on the connections between food, agriculture and ecosystems. They will assess some of the challenges facing agriculture and devise plans to address them. Organic and sustainable approaches to agriculture will also be discussed.
Students will compare different approaches to raising food animals and assess the implications for health, rural communities, animal welfare and the environment. They will view the short film Out to Pasture: The Future of Farming? and respond to narratives from farmers, community organizers and researchers. Seafood harvest and production will also be discussed.
Students will categorize foods by their extent of processing, then brainstorm the steps involved in manufacturing several processed foods. They will examine why and how foods are processed, then explore the dietary, health and economic concerns associated with certain aspects of the industry.
Students will explore the rationale for transporting food over long distances. They will map the distribution networks of common foods and assess the resulting energy, climate and economic impacts. They will critically examine the strengths and limitations of local and regional food systems.
Students will identify vulnerabilities to contamination along the food supply chain. They will simulate an investigation of a foodborne illness outbreak; using survey data, graphs and other tools, they will determine the contaminated food and pathogen responsible. Both microbial and chemical contaminants will be discussed.
Students will explore the relationship between diet and health, play a game about how American diets have changed over recent decades, and brainstorm reasons why people eat what they eat. They will learn about programs geared toward reducing the epidemic of diet-related diseases, then design their own intervention.
Students will examine how the environments in homes, schools, restaurants, stores and communities can affect what they eat. They will use tools such as maps and surveys to measure the cost, availability and accessibility of food in communities. Food maps of Baltimore City are included for in-class activities. Key concepts include food deserts and grocery gaps.
Students will explore the effects of food marketing and labeling on food choice, including the influence of brand awareness on their own choices. In-class activities include brainstorms, discussions and a debate over the merits of pouring rights contracts. Students will apply key concepts through group projects.
After sharing perspectives on how to define and measure hunger, students will explore the history, causes and consequences of hunger and food insecurity in the United States. Through discussions, activities and final projects, students will compare the strengths and limitations of emergency food programs, federal food and nutrition assistance, and the community food security movement.

Diabetes Health Center
Are You in Diabetes Denial?
Tackling Type 2 Diabetes
"Once you recognize that you have a problem that can be managed, you're off to a good start," says Breen.
What's next? Well, if you've been living with symptoms that you suspect might be linked to diabetes, your next stop should be the office of your health care provider.
"Because the symptoms of diabetes can go unnoticed -- or ignored -- it's important that people have regular checkups, which include measuring blood sugar levels to screen for diabetes," says Rubin.
Armed with the news that you have type 2 diabetes, it's time to start managing your health. Here are practical tips to getting over your fear of your newly diagnosed disease:
Make it a group effort. "Use your family for support when you're first diagnosed," says Rubin. "Help them understand what diabetes is about and what changes you need to make -- together -- so you can manage the disease."
Moderation is key. "Moderation in all things is one of the rules I live by," says White, who is living well with type 2 diabetes after 20 years. Instead of asking for a 16-ounce steak at dinner or a pound of macaroni and wolfing it down in 15 minutes, get a smaller portion and make it last at least a half-hour. Turn dinner into an experience, he suggests.
Treat yourself to a healthy snack. Instead of three huge meals throughout the day, which means peaks and valleys for blood sugar levels, White follows an easy and healthy schedule to keep steady all day long: breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner, and then a light snack before bed. What's important when you're making food choices, he says, is to keep it lean and nutritious. Have a half a turkey sandwich on wheat bread for a snack in the afternoon, or an apple before bed.
Watch what you eat. "When I was first diagnosed, I was eating peanut butter cups by the handful," says White. Now, knowing the health consequences of sugar-loading, he might have one sweet snack but certainly not a handful, and he balances his treats with a smart diet throughout the rest of the day.

Season 1

âThe Stuff of Legendâ continues with a new story that unleashes the Jester upon the forces of the Boogeyman. While this is the seventh issue of the series, and the first issue of the third storyline, there is no required reading necessary before diving right in.
As a matter of fact, Mike Raicht and Brian Smith waste no time whatsoever in delivering the action. The story opens with a battle on the high seas and a much darker version of the Jester (at least darker to those who may have read an issue or six prior to this) cleaving his way through the sailors and pirates who staff the Boogeymanâs naval forces.
Charles Paul Wilson III draws the action with maddening detail and kinetic energy aplenty, adding in bits of explosions, shards of ships, and high seas action swirling around the Jester. Wilson is careful not to overwhelm the reader with too much detail, however, and manages to deliver some of the best pages you will find on the new comics rack this week. The amazing part is that the pages are rendered in muted hues: blacks and grays and sepia tones. Itâs a stunningly different look for todayâs comics, and in this case it works perfectly. The colors help propel the imagery into nostalgic territory, giving the entire issue a feeling that it has been around longer and is just now finding its way to the reader.
As Iâve said, no advance preparation is required to start in with this series, but it certainly would help smooth out some questions if you were to read either of the previous collected tales. There are characters in action and in discussion here that are glossed over, left for a more detailed visit in the future at some point. After all, this is âA Jesterâs Tale.â
Leaving us with a cliffhanger, Mike Raicht and Brian Smith have provided quite an exciting tale of the Jester. Thereâs some intrigue, lots of excitement, and plenty of reasons to come back for more real soon. Issues like this one, however, leave me wishing that this book came out a little more frequently.

I believe Senator Lee has mishandled this budget dispute. He is out of step with most Utahns, including me, a former republican state delegate. Now he refuses to comment about an LDS church sponsored schools poll to an LDS church owned newspaper. Are these institutions to left leaning for Senator Lee? Who does he represent? Please, govern and stop obstructing.

Go Senator Lee! DRay is exactly right. Everytime Obama and Reid said the shutdown was going to cause a painful situation for agency X, Lee, Cruz, and Rand Paul said they would provide a funding bill for that agency to keep operating. Then Obama/Reid said no way showing their true colors. They won't compromise and they're hoping it hurts Republicans when just the opposite is happening. Great video on TheBlaze today at liberal Univ. of Colorado showing students overwhelmingly blame the Democrats for the shutdown. This poll is garbage.

I support Lee, and I am from S. Carolina. He can come here and be a senator anytime. If Utahns are so stupid as to not support him they deserve what they will get after him. His father was one of the brightest lawyers in this country and a constitutional genius and his sone is in his mold. I pity Utahns for not know this heritage (and they ballyhoo about genealogy and family) and its importance to the nation. Perhaps on Monday nights instead of singing they need to be reading something on economics and the constitution.

Sorry, U-tar, I'm laughing hysterically that anyone would think that KSL/Deseret News is liberal. Also, you don't seem to understand how polls work. It's no surprise so many comments here are clueless to how we got where we are and deny the reality. ACA was a compromise passed by Congress, affirmed by SCOTUS, and upheld by a majority of voters when Obama was reelected. The continuing resolution passed by the Senate which continues the sequester is actually under the levels that Paul Ryan's 2011 budget proposed. So, who again isn't compromising?

I also think the des news has tipped left! Just look what professor at byu is

So S Sherwood I know of his family history and know what a great legacy he has from his father.
And as response to someone above - obamacare is a horrible health care system. Just wait until we all know what we will have to pay, and we all will be shocked. The thing cost 650 million for the program (6 times what they originally said it would) on the internet and it's not working.
Are we really so stupid that we don't realize if you add 30 million people to the health care system that it will be cheaper? And as a senior, I know that they will have to make decisions about who will get help and who will take a pill until they die. Death panels - you bet!
Thank you Senator Lee, too bad our other senator is no where to be heard/seen!

Mike Lee is doing exactly what he said he would do when we elected him. I will
run to the polls to vote for him and for anyone else with his integrity,
fortitude, and values.
If an individual reaches his/her credit limit and is told they can no longer borrow, should they complain and try to get their credit limit raised or should they change their lifestyle and try to live within their means? If over 50% of Utahans think that we will ever be able to pay back the unimaginable debt our oversized government has accumulated without painful change then we really are in trouble.
Interest keeps growing 24/7, 17 Trillion + today what a year from now? Eventually the day of reckoning comes, and it has to come. The only ones trying to turn this around are Senator Lee and those few responsible elected officials like him.
I don't need to draw a picture of what is in our future without a drastic, painful course change. All it takes is common sense and watching history repeat itself again.

Don't fall of your chair DanO, I read and watch plenty of news, and KSL is not conservative. I live here in this state and endure it every day. Perhaps your liberal point of view reflects the liberal state of La La land you live in on the Left coast. The liberal media didn't happen over night, it has been creeping in over many years. Perhaps too many people from your state moving in. The federal government is not shut down, every one will get paid, the debt will go up, government will expand, Obama care is here, everything you want is comming, so be happy. I still admire Senator Lee

U-tar, ever consider they might be reporting actual facts and you just don't want to believ it? Ignoring the polls was exactly why so many on the right were blindsided by Obama's win in 2012.

Way to go, Mike! Keep up the good work!
There are efforts here at home to kick you out of office. We need look no further than our local media, including DesNews and KSL. Doug Wright seems to have only one agenda right now and that is to bring you down.
He tried the same trick with Jason Chaffetz but lost. Let's hope he loses here too. I'm tired of the big-government, big-spending politicians, regardless of party. And we all ought to be concerned about the progressives and their successful efforts to date in bringing the people increasingly into servitude.
I'm glad we voted progressive Bob Bennett out. And I'm so sorry that I voted to keep Orrin Hatch in office. Others warned me, and I didn't listen.
The rest of us need to make sure that we praise you in our conversations with friends, family, coworkers.

Just to remind you, Senator Lee won his election also, here in Utah, after ousting the liberal Bob Bennett. I didn't need a poll to tell me Romney would loose, he isn't a true conservative, just like Bennett and Hatch.

Mike Lee is the sideshow Utah never bargained for. His biggest accomplishment in the Senate has been to draw a lot of attention to himself. Now he won't even talk about the fact that he's actively and very visibly championing a position that's at odds with what the majority of his constituents support. This is not what representative government is supposed to be about.

These comments about polls being flawed remind me of the presidential election: there were a few people who chose not to see reality while the majority of polls were proven to be accurate. Those who chose not to believe reality were shocked by the outcome of the election.
The fact is, the polls are correct, the majority of Utahns do not like what Lee is doing.

Dansimp, the feds are not the Constitution. We need Constitutional law to protect us from oversized and aggressive governments, but not this fabricated, large cancerous growth called the federal bureaucracy, who waste the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them, subsidizing irresponsible people who make poor choices, just to get their vote to stay in power. And power is the only thing many of these federal officials are after, and not the freedom, rights, and welfare of the people. Otherwise, elected officials wouldn't be usurping the rights of the people given to the people by our Constitution.

one of the delusional forms of denial that many radical political groups use is rhetoric to convince themselves that their numbers are far larger than they really are... and to dismiss reality that shows otherwise.

The pollsters did not call me either. Oh, wait a minute, I forgot that sample polling is based on a representative sample of a specific population. This is the same sample polling done by KSL and BYU during every election that has proven accurate at predicting the winners of elections time and time again. I have never been asked by those polls either and somehow they manage to be accurate even without having my input. Senator Lee ignores those polls to his own detriment. Having said that, I like a Senator who is not blown about by every poll that is taken. In this case, I disagree with Senator Lee's stance and will have the opportunity to share that disagreement when he is next up for election.

Senator Lee does have a calling tree alerting his ardent supporters to write in when he is criticized. He does not want to face the buzz saw he started. He should resign as a failure.

This poll contains some strange metrics - the original poll shows that Obama has a 68% disapproval with only 1% answering "don't know", yet only 6% blame Democrats for the shutdown? Reid is at 55% disapproval but Mathewson has a 55% approval - I don't trust any poll where I can't see the internal data - this poll looks to me as if it way over-sampled Democrats.

Children's Vaccines Health Center
Heard of the Meningitis Vaccine?
Few Doctors Mention It continued...
Another reason for doctors to hesitate: "While the vaccine is available, it's not readily available," says Carol Baker, MD, professor of pediatrics at Baylor College of Medicine and a member of the AAP's Committee on Infectious Diseases.
"Doctors have to work harder to locate the vaccine because it's not routinely recommended. And while most physicians would be willing to give this to patients, the vaccine comes in a multidose vial -- you have to pay for 10 doses for a vaccine that has the same (short) shelf life as a single-vial vaccine," she tells WebMD. "That means that many doctors are very unlikely to not lose money by having this vaccine in their office."
Would she have her own teenaged children vaccinated? "In a second," says Baker, who praised Offit's article for "clearly laying out the issues of a controversial issue and being well-balanced."
Offit, author of a consumer book, Vaccines: What You Should Know, says he hopes his article will at least urge more doctors to discuss the vaccine with parents of their teenaged patients so they can decide if it's worth the expense. He and co-author Georges Peter, MD, of Brown Medical School, also advocate that physical exam forms for schools, camps, and sports activities include information about the vaccine.
Grassroots Effort
In the meantime, Mike Kepferle is doing his part. After his son's death, he and four other parents of teens killed or handicapped by meningococcal infections formed the National Meningitis Association Inc. Besides operating a web site, they are currently mailing an alert to parents of high school seniors across the country that there is a vaccine that may help them prevent the fate of their children. Kepferle serves as director of the nonprofit group.
"And next year, we'll expand it to parents of younger kids," he tells WebMD. "What we want is for other parents to get the information they need -- and know there's a vaccine that's been around for decades that can help prevent meningitis. We're not telling them what they should do. We just want them to know what they need to know so they can make their own decision."

UPPER PROVIDENCE Ś Complete with a lengthy battering ram, a gas injection system and night vision, the newest addition to the Delaware County Emergency Services fleet has the intimidating appearance more commonly associated with United States military vehicles.
The armored response vehicle, dubbed ôSWAT One,ö will aid SWAT teams during hostage situations, warrant sweeps, barricaded subjects and other emergencies. The vehicle can withstand hits from .50-caliber projectile, enabling officers to safely approach dangerous situations.
ôOn any given SWAT job, you donĺt know what there could be,ö Haverford Deputy Police Chief John Viola said. ôWe try to max out the capabilities of the truck for any given situation. ... When the SWAT team arrives and this truck is there, we can move them into the proximity of the situation safely and either do a rescue or an entry, if needed.ö
County officials showcased the vehicleĺs capabilities Wednesday at Rose Tree Park. Using SWAT Oneĺs battering ram, a SWAT team speared a stationary sedan, injecting gas into the car. Once secured, SWAT members rushed the car and broke out its windows.
ôThe gas injection system is pure gas deployment,ö Viola said. ôInstead of officers having to go through a window, we can drive right up and go through a window or go through a wall and then inject the gas into the property.ö
Viola spearheaded the efforts to obtain an armored response vehicle by pitching its necessity to Delaware County Council more than a year ago. He also assisted with the grant writing and design processes.
SWAT One, a 2014 Lenco ôBearCat,ö was purchased by the county for $332,852 using U.S. Department of Homeland Security grants. The funding was distributed by the Federal Emergency Management Agencyĺs Urban Area Security Initiative program.
The vehicle is being housed in Haverford alongside the rest of the countyĺs Emergency Service vehicles. He is helping train officers to use the vehicle.
ôWhile these officers are inside this vehicle, theyĺre safely covered from very high-caliber weapons,ö Viola said. ôAs we move forward, we know that all of our SWAT teams in Delaware County will be very well protected. This truck will take care of all of the SWAT teams in Delaware County at any momentĺs notice.ö
District Attorney Jack Whelan said SWAT teams are dispatched about 20 times each year.
ôThose officers risk their lives on these tactical teams as they respond to situations that are sometimes unknowing and certainly Ś all the time Ś very dangerous,ö Whelan said. ôWith SWAT One we are able to make these officers safer. Weĺre able to go into a crime situation and address that situation by responding with an armored vehicle and approaching a house or a car or a dangerous situation without exposing those officers to the normal perils they may have been exposed to without that vehicle.ö
Tom McGarrigle, the Republican chairman of Delaware County Council, joined the praise for the vehicleĺs protection, listing that as its chief priority.
ôHopefully, they never have to use it, but itĺs here,ö said McGarrigle, who is running against Democrat John Kane for state Senate.

MIAMI (July 3, 2013)--Hurricane Dalila was drifting southwestward Wednesday in the Pacific away from Mexico's coast.
Dalila's maximum sustained winds early Wednesday were near 75 miles per hour, but hurricane is expected to begin slowly weakening Thursday.
Dalila was centered about 220 miles west-southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico, and was moving southwest near 2 miles per hour.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said swells generated by Dalila were affecting parts of Mexico's southwestern coast and could cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.

What else in Lucas Arts is as good as JO?

Jedi Academy is nicknamed JK3 so you would be askign if a JK4 is in the works and so far we have had no solid evidence to that effect. To say whether JA is better then JO is entirely up to you. As the old adage goes: "One man's meat is another man's poison". Some people who left JO for JA have stayed there and never looked back. Some people has said JA was bantha poodoo and went back to JO. Then you have the minority who play both still. (like me).
My advice: research. Check out
Read all the reviews you possibly can. If you don't want to however I'll give you a few things to think about. (please keep in mind these are
thoughts and views)
Pros :
1) You can customize your character in terms of race,color & gender. (SP)
2) You start off with a lightsaber and you get to customize that as well. (hilt and blade color). (SP)
3) New moves to perform which can definitely help with the game's missions. (SP)
4) More force powers to use in the missions. e.g Absorb which you only got for MP in JO. (SP)
5) At a certain point in the game you get to choose between your regular single saber, dual sabers (Anakin in ep2) or a double-edged saber aka staff (Darth Maul ep1). (SP)
6) You get to ride tauntauns and fight wampas & a rancor or two. (SP)
7) New items including the grapplehook and jetpack. (MP)
8) JA+ a great mod (MP)
1) The storyline just plain sucked. It didn't have that deep immersive feeling of JO. (SP)
2) The dismemberment code which made JO realistic when we found it out (whenever you did
) doesn't work anymore and you have to do a lot of @#$% to get it working. (SP)
3) For MP the new moves that were good in the SP suddenly get spammed and you more or less end up on servers with kata whores or butterfly spammers. ( I mean hey they are easy to beat but it does cut down on interesting duels.)
Anyway as i said it's all up to you.
Almost forgot if you want to get really into a SW role try out KOTOR and KOTOR:TSL. Yes they are RPGs and I hated them too but they are really good. In fact they are the ONLY RPGs I play.

We've had a few unresolved questions on this forum about using qTranslate with Customizr.
qTranslate required some work from nikeo to get it working with Customizr. Changes were required to lengthen the strings on the front page so that you had enough room to enter several languages' worth of text (with qTranslate shortcodes) in the Featured Page texts / Buttons etc. From the Customizr side, this is all working fine.
But qTranslate's own problems cannot be solved from the Customizr side and I know that there are a lot of problems that aren't being answered on the qTranslate forum. And because qTranslate is so tightly bound up with the WordPress menus etc., it disables part of itself when a new version of WordPress comes out. An update for WP 3.8.1 was not immediate.
So: what else can we do?
Well there's WPML, which I've never tried; and the latest versions are not free. And then there's Polylang, which I tried once—and liked—but it doesn't support Customizr's Front Page options right out of the box.
To explain: Polylang takes a different approach to qTranslate. While qTranslate keeps both languages on one page and presents the browser with the right subset of title/text, Polylang keeps a separate page for each language and allows you to link the pages together from the page edit screen.
The problem was always the Customizr Front Page. While qTranslate allows you to enter shortcodes into the Customizr Featured Pages texts and buttons, Polylang doesn't have shortcodes. For "special" text, such as the date formats, site title, tagline, and widget titles, Polylang has a separate panel for "Strings translation". Out of the box, it doesn't give you any options to change Customizr's Featured Page texts and buttons.
Last November, this changed, when the author of Polylang very kindly posted some code that put some of the Customizr strings into Polylang's "Strings translation" panel. Bingo!
I've been meaning to look at it for a while and finally got round to doing so.
The code (from the Polylang author's site) is:
// Makes Customizr frontpage multilingual with Polylang; License: GPLv3; Credits: polylang.wordpress.com
if (defined('POLYLANG_VERSION')) add_filter('option_tc_theme_options', 'pll_tc_options');
function pll_tc_options($options) {
$areas = array('one', 'two', 'three');
if (is_admin()) {
pll_register_string('tc_featured_page_button_text', $options['tc_featured_page_button_text'], 'Customizr');
foreach ($areas as $area)
pll_register_string('tc_featured_text_'.$area, $options['tc_featured_text_'.$area], 'Customizr', true);
else {
$options['tc_featured_page_button_text'] = pll__($options['tc_featured_page_button_text']);
foreach ($areas as $area) {
$options['tc_featured_text_'.$area] = pll__($options['tc_featured_text_'.$area]);
$options['tc_featured_page_'.$area] = pll_get_post($options['tc_featured_page_'.$area]);
// filters sliders by language
$pll_options = get_option('polylang');
if (!empty($options['tc_sliders']) && $pll_options['media_support']) {
foreach ($options['tc_sliders'] as $slider => $images)
foreach ($images as $key => $img)
if (!(($id = pll_get_post($img)) && $id == $img))
return $options;
Once again: thanks to the author for sharing this code.
You can either load this as a plugin as he suggests (in which case, you'll need the extra header code shown on his page) or—as I prefer—load it in your Customizr child-theme's functions.php (I find that easier: so all my custom code is in one place).
If you don't know how to add code to a Customizr child theme, read how to customize Customizr first. Now—with Polylang active and "Show all languages" selected in the Admin bar—select Dashboard > Settings > Languages and click the "Strings translation" tab. From there, you will be able to change the Featured pages text and buttons, as well as the WordPress Site Title/Tagline/date format/Widget titles etc.
A word about the slider. The only way to make the slider work seems to be to set the option "Activate languages and translations for media" to ON (in Dashboard > Settings > Languages). Then:
- Create copies of your slides—one copy for each language.
- Set the language of each copy of the slide to match your languages (so if your langs are en/fr, then each slide should have 2 copies: en and fr).
- Add every slide (all slides in all languages) to your slider, filling in the relevant language's Title, Description, and Button text for each.
- (You may not need to do this step, but I found that I did at one point (at the beginning), so I put it in here, just in case.) For each language, choose the language from the admin bar, then open Customiz'it and set the slider name in the Front Page panel.
Although all the language slides are in the slider, Polylang will only deliver the slides for the relevant language to the browser.
When "Activate languages and translations for media" (in Settings > Languages) is set OFF, I can't get it to work (though I feel I ought to be able to make a sliders for each language, but I couldn't hack it; maybe someone else can).
Note the author's caveat that this works only if the language is set in the url (directory, subdomain or domain name). So you will have to see "/en/" at the end of your links or "en." at the beginning. Note also that this code has been reported to NOT work with featured pages unlimited, but I'm hoping that someone who has that extension can generalize the code to make it work on both.
Once enough people have tried this and we've ironed out the issues, then I'll try to immortalize it into a snippet or a new guide on the themesandco.com site.
Fire away with problems!

A Multi Source Digital Delayed Sound Reinforcement System for a Large Gothic Cathedral
The paper discusses the design of a multi source digital delayed sound reinforcement system to provide acceptable intelligibility of speech and choral music in a Cathedral with a 7 - 8 second reverberation time. The design parameters included maximum variation of +1 dB SPL and near perfect precedence at any listening position in the Cathedral, without the benefit of any acoustical treatment.

AH- Animal Crackers by Goddess-Of-SugarWatch
©2008-2016 Goddess-Of-Sugar
This is one of my pieces for my final in art. This is the project that is making me cry. We are supposta make five books with the same eight designs on a topic she assigned us. I got the "Circus", which is okay cause I can do a lot of animal art I love animals. . . . But this os one of eight TT3TT I have seven more to go. This is an animal cracker box with actual live animals coming out of it. I thought I was a cute idea. I really like the giraffe myself. I'm going to fix the elephant before I turn it in.
uuuuy a lot of problems in the way!
(collect then all is hard!)
(collect then all is hard!)
I don't know why but I love this.
beautiful, especially the giraffe. Cant wait to see the rest! good luck!
Thanks, I'm going to need all the luck to finish this without killing someone
The giraffe is adorable~
Cute idea! But I dunno how they can all fit. Must be a magical box.

In Internet Explorer 8, this code throws a JavaScript error: "The object invoked has disconnected from its clients." The code is pretty straightforward. I feel like I've written something almost exactly like this before. I'm not sure why it's throwing an error now.
Here's the HTML:

The IE8 debugging tools say the error is being thrown on window.open.

AbstractAn innovative optical system with 500X higher ¿tendu and spatial resolution will be designed for CCD-based bistatic lidar. A 100¿ vertical field of view is required to image the laser beam from the ground through the boundary layer, but only a few degrees are required in the horizontal direction. The proposed design is based on dividing the vertical field of view into N sectors, using 1D rastering of flat mirrors, and parallel imaging of laser scattered light from each sector onto one CCD-matrix utilizing a single objective with narrow angle of view. By employing an off-the-shelf, off-axis, parabolic mirror as an objective, chromatic aberration can be eliminated, i.e., this system can be used in a broad spectral area from IR to UV. Phase I will consist of modeling, design, and proof-of-concept breadboard experiments.

From Our Editors
The specialists at Dance Express XD Performing Arts Center lead programs for 2- to 20-year-olds, drawing from a catalogue that spans the style gamut. In addition to helming classes such as jazz, tap, hip-hop, ballet, and cheerleading, the experienced team cultivates a familial atmosphere designed to help participants boost confidence levels and synchronicity.
In addition to classes, the studio puts on an annual June recital that casts anyone who wants to participate regardless of skill level. To encourage further involvement outside of courses, instructors motivate their protégés to try out for the competitive team, plan costume themes for spirit week, and choreograph tap-dance renditions of their favorite Morse-code fairy tales. The team also provides a waiting room monitor for parents interested in observing classroom routines.

Dr. Clement Smith was Professor of Pediatrics at Wayne University College of Medicine and Medical Director of the Children's Hospital of Michigan. His book reflects his wide reading, deep study and excellent clinical experience. As is essential in a study of the newborn, the physiology of the fetus is also thoroughly covered.
In addition to the usual chapters on respiration, circulation, the digestive system and the blood, which are fully covered and well presented, the author has delved deep into all aspects of metabolism, including heat regulation, assimilation and metabolism as related to specific food substances, vitamins and minerals, the regulation of electrolytes and water and the function of the endocrine glands as they affect nutrition and growth. Renal physiology is unusually well discussed, and an interesting chapter on neonatal immunity completes the book.
