I saw this plugin created
And was wondering if anyone knew if it could be adapted to categories, or if you knew of any plug ins which would make the categories collapsable or at least hidden.
My site is http://www.widgx.com and if you look at the side bar you'll see the categories. I wanted it to be that when someone CLICKED "categories" it showed them.
Any suggestions? (besides widgets because I do not know how to update my theme to suppprt widgets and I've already tried.)

The room was clean, roomy, well laid out, quiet. A TV, sofabed, microwave, fridge, and coffeemaker included in the basic room.
The sofabed could have used a mattress topper to make it more comfortable. Otherwise, excellent.
A good place to stay, reasonable rates, friendly staff; quickly brought us what we needed.

Goal orientation theories were used to generate predictions regarding the moderating effect of goal orientation profiles on task performance growth trajectories. Participants were given multiple trials of practice on an air traffic control task. Analyses were conducted using growth curve modeling. As expected, individuals with high performance-approach orientation improved their task performance scores faster than their counterparts. The interaction between mastery and performance-avoid orientations moderated the performance growth curve such that individuals with high mastery and low performance-avoid orientation improved their performance at the fastest rate. The interaction between performance-approach and performance-avoid orientations also moderated the performance growth curve. Individuals with low performance-approach and high performance-avoid orientation improved their performance at the slowest rate. These findings contribute to theory and practice by elucidating how various combinations of goal orientations influence the rate of skill acquisition.

Drivers Walking at MATS
For the second year in a row, the MATS Health Awareness Walk for truckers is taking place at the Mid-America Trucking Show.
The 1.5 mile walk takes place Saturday, April 2 at 8 a.m., with all participants meeting at the Kentucky International Convention Center, and can participate in a warm-up before the walk and a cool-down afterward, led by Trucking Trainer Bob Perry. There is no fee for the walk but registration is required. Walkers can choose their own distance, up to 1.5 miles.
The Health Awareness Walk was created to get truckers started on the road to better health. Registered walkers will receive packets with health information and giveaways, while supplies last.
Registration is available at online at www.roadsidemed.com. MATS attendees can also sign up for the walk at the Roadside Medical Clinic and Lab booth at the show (#67028, in the Driver Recruitment and Wellness Center).

"Often when you're in the process of realizing an image, it's going somewhere else. If that tangent starts going off in a place that feels more exciting, that's what I go with."
"I think that by measuring and scrutinizing and investigating everything possible you really consume the space and it becomes part of you. Now you feel like it's in you and you feel comfortable. That's why I did my first site-specific installations, and I did the same thing with my Korean house project. But once you take that piece down from its site and transport it and display it in a different place, the idea of site-specific becomes highly questionable and refutable. That's what I was really interested in because I think this notion of home is something you can repeat infinitely."

LONDON — No one suspected the secretary.
Efficient, well-dressed and well-liked, Sue Harris was at the heart of the Sunday People, the smallest of Britain's weekly tabloids. She booked flights, reserved accommodation, and tallied expenses for the populist paper's dozen or so full-time reporters. A petite, 40-something south Londoner who'd spent most if not all of her working life at the tabloid, journalists there trusted her implicitly.
Maybe they shouldn't have.
In 1995 Harris was dismissed over an allegation that she'd been feeding her paper's juiciest scoops to Piers Morgan's News of the World, betraying her co-workers for a weekly payoff of 250 pounds — then worth about $375. Although People journalists had long believed there was a traitor in their midst, they were shocked when Harris was exposed.
"Everybody knew there was a mole," said a former senior journalist with the People. "We never thought the person we were looking for was her."
The journalist, who was there when Harris was fired, was among three former colleagues who recounted her story to The Associated Press, speaking on condition of anonymity because they still work in the media industry.
Harris' alleged spying on behalf of the News of the World wasn't unique, an AP investigation has found. Interviews with three more former journalists and published accounts suggest that Rupert Murdoch's flagship Sunday tabloid engaged in a pattern of payoffs aimed at rival newspaper employees.
The News of the World was closed in July as evidence of illegal conduct there became inescapable. Although accusations that the paper hacked into phones and corrupted police officers to win scoops have been widely aired, the paper's efforts to subvert rival newspaper employees have seen less attention.
American investigators are already examining whether the News of the World's parent company, New York-based News Corp., broke U.S. anti-corruption laws by bribing British officials. Legal experts now say that payments made to rival journalists could make it more difficult for the media conglomerate to defend itself against any potential prosecution.
The corporate espionage campaign also calls into question the ethics of Morgan, who edited the News of the World between 1994 and 1995 and who once boasted that having rivals on his payroll meant that he and his colleagues "always know exactly what our competitors are doing."
Story theft has long been a big worry for Britain's Sunday tabloids, who only get one shot a week at making an impression on their readership. Particular concern surrounds the "splash" — the front page story which acts as an advertisement for a paper's journalism.
At the People as with other tabloids, journalists took extreme measures to keep a potential splash under wraps. Sources would be paid compensation in return for exclusive access or sequestered at out-of-the way hotels for days at a time to keep them away from rival reporters.
Keeping the splash secret was particularly important for the cash-strapped People. If the News of the World got wind of a story, the Murdoch tabloid's massive budget meant it could easily outbid the People for interview rights.
But no secret was safe from Harris, who spent years sitting a few feet from the People's senior editors. Former journalists say that, thanks to the weekly payments made by the News of the World, the People's powerful rival knew everything too.

I have read several problems for a long time about wine and pulseaudio in Ubuntu but never understood it clearly. What are the problems or seem to be the problems related to wine and the use by default of pulseaudio in regards to sound in games executed via wine. This affects a whole range of users that use Ubuntu but want to still be able to play specific windows games.
Latest update: Wine 1.7.55 adds proper PulseAudio support.
There isn't much of a problem at all these days.
What you're describing was years ago.
Applications under Wine only know how to talk to a Windows sound stack, so as with most of the other Windows subsystems, Wine provides this. The problem comes from our sound stack changing significantly in the last decade.
Once upon a time...
... we only had OSS and ALSA. They provide predictable interfaces but they aren't easy to code to. It took Wine ages to get to a "just works" point with their ALSA support. The stack diagram was quite simple:
The main problem with ALSA is it's notoriously finicky if you want more than one thing to play at once. Applications could accidentally lock it from others.
Then PulseAudio got popular.
Suddenly every desktop had this thing called PulseAudio. It was another layer between applications and ALSA to allow for many applications to make noise at once and add features like sound-over-network.
But Wine still only knew how to talk to ALSA, and there was now this PulseAudio thing hogging it right from boot. Wine's audio had to be piped through an ALSA compatibility layer into PulseAudio and then back out to ALSA. The stack shows how horrible this looks:
Additionally the ALSA emulation layer (provided by PulseAudio) wasn't great. It would support a couple of channels and a few recording options but nowhere near as much as the ALSA that PulseAudio itself sat on top of.
The perceived problem was always "the other guys' fault"
Audio in Wine didn't work. With hindsight it's easy to see where the problem really was but there were three opinions at the time that made Wine a real battleground:
And then things got better.
Everybody gave a little.
And while it might seem like it, I doubt that's not the end of this story. There are commercially-supported projects like OpenAL and GStreamer that could really simplify Wine's sound stack as well as providing extra features.
But then years later, Wine 1.7.55 added mainline PulseAudio support...
I've been writing this post for years and this is perhaps the weirdest thing yet. After dropping the PA driver development, somebody appears to have gone back to this and turned it into something real.
More than that, it got pulled in to the mainline version of Wine.
In an established prefix, just run
Is it any better than the ALSA compatibility layer? I'm still unsure. I've tried what I thought were some of the buggier games and they still skip around a bit.
It work though, which is the main thing... but so did the ALSA wrapper in the end.

Help Crowdfund The Dark Snow Project Research Trip To Greenland, As McKibben And Sinclair Join Jason Box
You can help crowd-fund an important scientific research trip — along with a videographer and journalist to cover it. Climate De-Crocker Peter Sinclair explains:
On April 21, 2013, the Dark Snow Project brought a bit of Greenland to Manhattan, to illustrate the importance of this summer's planned expedition to sample Greenland ice. It kicked off the last leg of our historic citizen-science crowd funding campaign.
If this final fundraising push is successful, I'll be traveling in June to the Greenland Ice sheet as part of a scientific expedition to investigate the steady darkening and increasing melt of that important ice sheet. Bill Mckibben will be coming along to write this up for Rolling Stone, as well.
Here is a video on the Dark Snow Project:
They are almost half-way to their $150,000 target. Let's see if Climate Progress readers can take them over $100,000. Here's how:
One, you can go to Darksnowproject.org, and make a donation at the bottom of the page. Two, you can text darksnow to 50555.
13 Responses to Help Crowdfund The Dark Snow Project Research Trip To Greenland, As McKibben And Sinclair Join Jason Box
It has become apparent to me that one of the reasons we are having all this internal conflict is that we are not all on the same page. My objective is to avoid climate catastrophe, making whatever sacrifices are necessary, using whatever approaches and forms of governance are required, voluntary or involuntary. I don't see all those conditions reflected in most of the posts here.
We see comments that start with 'I believe in climate change action', and tend to end with: if we can make the transition without 'draconian sacrifices'; if we can implement my technology first; if we can do it while maintaining democracy; if we can do it while maintaining prosperity. My view is: no conditions; whatever it takes!
Logical Fallacies http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NeAGAV5eEoo
The rule of law must prevail as its collapse would indicate that we are likely in a failed state.
We can transition at wartime speed from fossil fuels and the vast amount of things that are extremely wasteful and destructive without major sacrifices.
Just start creating case studies hypothetical and otherwise and you will likely see that.
Those case studies in which you see major sacrifices most likely have solutions so that they can be avoided and you probably do not have the skills or resources to find them.
We are an extremely affluence civilization and we have a huge amount or resources to work with to stop accelerating climate change without major sacrifices.
The extreme poor are at grave risk and we must share our resources with them so they do not have to make major sacrifices; being an optimist I believe we will do that; part of which I believe to be one of the requisites for our survival: Poor People First.
Crowds lavishly funded the cure for cancer. All the while cancer rates crept up because cancer is a caused disease. We spray carcinogens onto and into our food. Our homes are reeling with carcinogens. We wade into vats full of carcinogens at work.
Many similarities to climate change. Devise all sorts of complex 'treatments'; do everything but eliminate the fundamental causes.
I can quote chapter and verse to support my case, starting with the next post.
Cancer is good for business. The perfect chronic, fear-inducing, malady, ideal for the entrepreneurs of the medical-industrial complex to extract maximum profit. If someone discovered a cure for cancer, they would vanish from the face of the earth, quick-smart.
I spread this to my friends and asked them to send it to theirs. Maybe some donations will come in from that. I found the YouTube video from the guardian to be more complete and convincing.
This is necessary science that needed to be done years ago and will need to be checked again soon. Good luck to the expedition.
Why is it more difficult to study Greenland than it is to study Mars? Shame on the powers that be.
If you would read the biomedical literature instead of political tracts, you would find that most (not all) cancers can be prevented. However, as with avoiding climate change, what some here would term 'draconian sacrifices' might be required (e.g., no junk food, no smoking, no excess drinking, no excess calories, etc).
And, of course, exposures to the myriad environmental toxins/chemicals that are part and parcel of our high-tech world. Dr. Mercola's column today provides a short summary of some of these environmental toxins.

The Fox network plans to resurrect its world-famous action series after its conclusion in 2010, reveals Deadline.com. Kiefer Sutherland has already been asked to revive his role as the indefatigable Jack Bauer.
Since May 24, 2010, when the last episode of "24" was broadcast in the US, fans of LA Counter Terrorist Unit (CTU) superagent Jack Bauer have been yearning to see their hero again in movie theaters. But budgetary issues and Kiefer Sutherland's scheduling conflicts have torpedoed the project.
However, now that the Canadian actor has been released from his obligations in "Touch," a thriller drama series Fox has decided to cancel after two seasons, the network plans to bring "24" back with great pomp and ceremony. The sequel won't take the form of a whole season but will be scaled down to a mini-series.
Long-serving "24" producer and showrunner Howard Gordon, who also co-developed the successful thriller series "Homeland," is to spearhead the sequel. He'll be backed up by David Fury, another executive producer who was in on the act from the get-go.
Started up in November 2001 in the US, "24" called it a day in 2010 after eight seasons. This award-winning action series also spawned a TV film, "24: Redemption," which serves as a link between seasons 6 and 7.

A comprehensive survey of thinning methodologies is presented. A wide range of thinning algorithms, including iterative deletion of pixels and nonpixel-based methods, is covered. Skeletonization algorithms based on medial axis and other distance transforms are not considered. An overview of the iterative thinning process and the pixel-deletion criteria needed to preserve the connectivity of the image pattern is given first. Thinning algorithms are then considered in terms of these criteria and their modes of operation. Nonpixel-based methods that usually produce a center line of the pattern directly in one pass without examining all the individual pixels are discussed. The algorithms are considered in great detail and scope, and the relationships among them are explored

Dodd-Frank Regulations: Implementation, Compliance, Operational Readiness
Interview with Steve Daugherty, Vice President, Energy Derivatives at BOK Financial
Mr. Daugherty answered a series of questions written by marcus evans before the upcoming 4th Annual Risk Management in Energy Trading Conference, November 8-9, 2011 at the Hotel Derek in Houston, TX. All responses represent the view of the Mr. Daugherty and not necessarily those of BOK Financial. (Note that the responses have been approved by BOK Financial.)
What can companies be doing now to prepare for the Dodd-Frank Act?
SD: There a few things that a company can be doing right now to prepare. These can include:
1. Consult their financial services companies (lenders, hedge providers) and learn how they will treat hedge products differently – be sure to ask about margin requirements and ask how the financial services company will "classify"
2. Be sure their compliance/regulations area is researching the rules and chatting with their peers at other energy companies to determine how you will be affected.
3. Have your financial area (Accounting/
What type of internal communications are necessary, to be ready when the new rules are implemented?
SD: A. Trading desks:
You will very likely have additional margin requirement compared with what you face now. If you select your financial services provider carefully, you will have some "free margin" but afterwards, you might have to post margin above what you face today. You might need to consider lower loss hedge structures, like collar structures with stops at the top. Perhaps involve your financial services provider to help discuss these strategies
B. Finance/Accounting:
You'll have to be sure that your financial service provider is reporting thederivatives transactions you enter into if they are reportable. Those entered into as Commercial End users will not need to be reported but others will have to be.
Check liquidity implications of having higher margin – explore lines from our lenders to see if they would fund such liquidity needs.
Is it worth it to try and guess what the regulators will eventually come up with?
SD: Probably not. Keeping your ear to the ground is the best approach at this point. Congress is pushing back on many provisions, and those they can't push back are being delayed. Early adoption is not a good idea in this front.
What rule are you especially interested in seeing resolved?
SD: Other than a complete rewrite of Titles VI and VII of the Dodd Frank rule, I would really like the CFTC to formally state the definitions of what a Commercial End User is, a Major Swap Participant and a Swaps Dealer. Depending upon how the come out on this definition, every bank may end up being a swap dealer and many of the large energy trading companies may have to register as a major swap participant.
I would also like the Federal Reserve to offer a more concrete set of standards for when margining must be done for end users. At this point, financial institutions are expected to set an upper bound on derivatives exposure to any customer, but the Fed is silent on how big that upper bound should be.
What potential regulation do you think could have the biggest effect on the derivatives market?
SD: One of two – the Volker rule prohibits trading of commodities by any financial institution. That may affect the liquidity of the commodity markets. The swaps push out and reporting rule could impose onerous reporting requirements and as mentioned above, some margin requirements occur which are not in place now.

By Staff Sgt. Jennifer C. Johnson, JFHQ-NCR/MDW Public AffairsAugust 22, 2014
WASHINGTON (Aug. 22, 2014) -- More than 80 military and civilian participants from around the United States attended a five-day Antiterrorism Officer Basic Course, held at Fort Belvoir, Va., Aug. 18 --22.
Hosted by the Joint Force Headquarters-National Capital Region and the U.S. Army Military District of Washington Provost Marshal/Protection Directorate, this basic course teaches what defines terrorism and antiterrorism, as well as teaching students how to implement random antiterrorism measures.
The course also focuses on preparing threat assessments, conducting risk assessments, terrorism case studies with lessons learned, and how to conduct unit AT program reviews.
"Antiterrorism Officers (ATO) play a critical role in the success of their organization's antiterrorism program," said Marvin Solomon, JFHQ-NCR/MDW Force Protection analyst and site lead. "They are responsible for building and maintaining the program, creating public awareness, and must constantly evaluate their programs strengths and weaknesses to increase its effectiveness."
August marks the Army's fifth annual Antiterrorism Awareness Month and the focus is to promote awareness and vigilance to protect the Army family against terrorists.
The basic course was designed as a forum for professional development, while encouraging the exchanging of ideas and stimulating discussion on a variety of antiterrorism subjects.
"The key to a secure installation or facility is an aggressive antiterrorism program that incorporates threat awareness, threat mitigation and reduces or eliminates procedures, practices or physical security deficiencies that make us vulnerable to attack," said Solomon.

Jennifer Narramore, Meteorologist
Jennifer is a Midwest girl, originally from Beech Grove, Indiana. Her interest in weather came in middle school. She was living in Central Florida at the time and became fascinated with hurricanes and tracked every storm on the tracking charts you get at the grocery store. Her family moved to Pennsylvania when she was in high school and Jen went to the Pennsylvania State University (Go Lions!) and received her Bachelor of Science in Meteorology in 1995. Jennifer landed a job in the radio department at The Weather Channel in 1997.

Sally Russell, Meteorologist
Sally Russell has been doing radio for 23 years, and was always interested in the weather. As a young child growing up in England Sally used to watch the local weatherman and repeat everything he said back to her parents. But it was growing up in Florida watching the afternoon thunderstorms and tracking hurricanes that really sparked her interest in the weather. She is amazed by the awesome power of tornadoes and hurricanes, and has seen firsthand what their damage does to life and property. Some of the most impactful weather events that Sally has experienced are Hurricane Charley, Hurricane Katrina and the 2011 tornado outbreak in Alabama. A graduate from the University of Alabama, Sally can be found cheering on her Crimson Tide. She is an avid college football fan, runner and a lover of music. But mostly Sally spends her spare time spending time with her husband and caring for her new baby daughter.
Steve Hamilton, Meteorologist
Steve Hamilton is originally from Cross Keys, New Jersey. He's been a weather enthusiast since 1972 when Hurricane Agnes roared across his home town. He began to write to TV weather forecasters in Philadelphia, asking for weather maps and satellite images so he could study them. Steve graduated from Colorado State University with a BS in Communications, and then went back to study meteorology at Mississippi State University in 2005. He graduated three years later, and earned his American Meteorological Society Seal Of Approval in 2008. Steve is also a storm chaser and has been on hundreds of solo chases, witnessing nearly 40 tornadoes and countless severe thunderstorms. He's also a radio personality in Denver, Colorado where he does the afternoon show on KEZW 1430 AM, and he owns a Contemporary Jazz internet station, KHIH-DB broadcasting worldwide at khigh.net. Now on The Storm Report Team, Steve has merged his two passions: Radio and Meteorology. And he's not just a "weather reader". He really gets into forecasting, using tools like "HazWX" modeling software, Radar Scope and data from many other sources. Steve's philosophy on work is pretty simple. "Figure out what you love to do, then figure out how turn it into a paying job."
Harrison Sincavage, Social Media Coordinator
Harrison Sincavage was born and raised in Reading, Pennsylvania. He's entering his junior year at The Pennsylvania State University, pursuing a Bachelors of Science degree in Meteorology. Harrison's first memory of a weather event was Hurricane Floyd in September of 1999, where his neighborhood received 13 inches of rain in two days. Since then, Harrison fell in love with the atmosphere and weather. In 2010, he became a short track speed skater and trained for the 2014 Winter Olympic Games, qualifying to compete in national level competitions two years in a row, and in 2013 ranked 27th overall in the United States in the Men's 1000 meter distance. Harrison was later accepted into Penn State and decided to pursue his true passion in meteorology. He spends a lot of time conducting weather research on his own and has completed independent studies in Tornado Alley. Harrison oversees and integrates real-time information into The Storm Report's social media center which will soon be based in State College, Pennsylvania.
Jared Cerullo, Forecaster
Jared got his first taste of the power of mother nature in his late teens when the Haysville/Andover tornado of April 26th, 1991 left his boyhood neighborhood in shambles and several of his neighbors dead. Since then, Jared's fascination with the power of the sky has never waned. Shortly after high school, Jared began working for KFDI, the #1 radio news and weather outlet in his hometown and spent 14 years writing, reporting and anchoring the news there. During that time, Jared won a handful of regional and two national Edward R. Murrow awards for his reporting of breaking news and spot news. Lightning nearly struck twice for Jared on the night of May 3rd, 1999. While Jared was working for KFDI, he literally chased a massive tornado right to his own neighborhood" the same neighborhood that had been leveled eight years prior by the infamous Haysville/Andover tornado. In 2007, Jared made the jump from radio into television by going to work for KAKE TV, the ABC affiliate in Wichita. In 2014, Jared joined The Storm Report and continues to call Wichita, Kansas, his home.
Eric Burris, Tropical Meteorologist
As a child, Eric was petrified of the afternoon storms that Florida is well known for. He would run and hide. "I still remember the weatherman coming on TV and talking about the storms. I knew if he said it would be ok, then it would be." That's the whole reason Eric wanted to be a weatherman: to help people be safe when the skies darken. Eric's greatest television achievement to date was covering Hurricane Charley in Orlando, when it took a turn for the worse. "I'm living my dream, and enjoying the heck out of it!" Eric received his education from Mississippi State University. In 2007, he earned the Seal of Approval from the American Meteorological Society. In his free time, Eric loves taking care of his saltwater fish. He also has a very strong musical background, and loves helping out with marching bands, and cheering on his younger brother Jason, who is a member of the Boston Crusaders Drum And Bugle Corps.

Things I Want My Daughters to Know (Large Print / Paperback)
The bestselling author of The Reading Group returns with her most engaging novel yet, about four sisters who find hope and laughter in the wisdom their mother left behind
Warm, funny, and loving, Barbara had always been the backbone of her family. Her four daughters adored her and relied on her. Faced with the reality of leaving them before any of them are ready, Barbara writes letters to each of them, and a journal about the things she wants them to know.
Facing their first year without her, drawing on the wisdom in the legacy she has left behind, her girls might just find a way to cope with their loss. And in coming to terms with their bereavement, can they also set themselves free to enjoy their lives with all the passion and love each deserves?
As she did in The Reading Group, The Friendship Test, and Alphabet Weekends, Elizabeth Noble pairs humor and poignancy in a tale about love, loss, and family.
About the Author

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - An Austin woman found shot to death in her bed had been notified that her son was absent without leave from Fort Benning, Ga.
Pvt. Travis Wayne Baczewski (buh-SHOO'-skee) of Austin remained in the Travis County Jail on Thursday on $1.1 million bail.
Baczewski is charged with capital murder in Sunday's killing of 54-year-old Violetta Baczewski, plus unauthorized use of a motor vehicle. Electronic court records did not indicate an attorney for him.
The victim's husband, Steven, works in Iraq for a private company.
The 22-year-old soldier was arrested Monday in Alamo, a town near the Mexican border. His father's car was recovered.
An affidavit says the victim July 23 received a letter from the Army that her son was AWOL, not on leave as he claimed.

Consoling themselves over a life rapidly disappearing down the drain, many depressed caterpillars use nature's wonders, sun and green leaves, to ensure they make it to the butterfly metamorphosis stage. Undergo a personal health transformation with today's deal: $29 for two naturopath sessions, health tests and a return to wellness plan at one of four locations across Brisbane and the Gold Coast ($200 value).
Bodies turned toxic by poor diet, pollutants, illness and the stresses of modern life are assessed and set back on the health highway with this restorative offer from Universal Forces. An initial consultation with a qualified naturopath identifies issues through an array of tests which include an indicans urine test – useful for identifying intestinal toxaemia and overgrowth of anaerobic bacteria; VLA bioimpedance analysis - provides information on body fat levels, toxicity and inflammation; zinc and blood glucose readings; and a heavy metal evaluation – a test which searches for the presence of certain pollutants in the body and does not involve counting the number of disks in your 70s record collection.
At a second visit, test findings are discussed and a comprehensive plan is formulated, enabling illness-prone individuals to follow a roadmap back to health, vitality and a world where beer and pizza relinquish the steering wheel and become, instead, occasional backseat passengers. Each session lasts around thirty minutes and appointments may be made at any one of four convenient locations:

First birthday party etiquette
I live in a big city and am a part of a group of 10 or so women whose babies are all turning 1 in and around the same month. At best, I would say the majority of these women are acquaintances, people who it's been nice to spend time with on weekdays while on maternity leave, but who I may not see after that. The birthday party invites are starting to come out and we are being invited to many of the family parties. Problem is, for my babies birthday we intend to have a small gathering of family and a handful of very close friends and maybe a couple of the women from the group who I've become close with. Would it be appropriate to write the group and indicate that we are having a small party for family only and tell the two women I'm inviting not to mention their invites? Should I suggest to the group that we do the birthday equivalent of a Secret Santa to save us from buying 9 presents for the other babies? I should add that I am currently unemployed and a bit concerned about the expense of gifts for all of the babies. Thoughts and any suggestions to navigate this?

8" buttercream cake lined with Pirouette cookies. All gumpaste/fondant decorations. I used 50/50 for the palm leaves but next time I'll color straight gumpaste. They were a bit too soft and delicate and a few broke off but were easy to fix.

In Seattle, Ryan Feierabend has a tattoo of a screaming baseball with flames trailing on his pitching shoulder. That's how the ball must have looked to Seattle's rookie left-hander on the two long homers he allowed in the first four innings.
But the 21-year-old Feierabend allowed one single over his final four innings to earn his first career win behind Jose Lopez's four hits. Lopez's three-run double highlighted a five-run fourth and put the Mariners ahead for good in an victory over bumbling Texas.
"It's incredible - and my contacts are burning," Feierabend said, wiping the shaving cream from closer J.J. Putz's celebratory pie out of his eyes after allowing seven hits and striking out five in 7 1/3 innings.
Texas hasn't won a road series against AL opponents in nine tries this season and is a season-high 15½ games back in the AL West. W: Feierabend (1-1). L: Tejeda (4-6).

KENNETT SQUARE Ś Scores of the neediest children in southern Chester County got the Christmas of a lifetime Saturday when community members, local churches and area businesses merged efforts in launching an event called ôMadisonĺs Miracle Christmas.ö
The children, who were brought to the Senior Center by their parents, were greeted by Santaĺs elves, and taken for a visit with Santa and showered with gifts and Christmas stockings. Each child also received a new coat, donated by members of a Kennett area church. They got photos taken with Santa, were entertained by performers with KMS Dance Studio in Kennett Square, were read Dickensĺ Christmas Story and got to eat holiday treats and food.
And it was all free.
ôThere are a lot of kids out there who donĺt have Christmases like we do,ö said Mark Mettenheimer, who helped to organize the event. ôWe are very fortunate in this community, so we decided to give them a Christmas they will never forget.ö
The idea for the event came when Mattenheimer came across a youngster named Madison Johnson. It was Johnsonĺs idea to make and sell bracelets as a fund-raiser, and Johnson said she wanted to use the money to give to poor children at Christmas.
ôI hope it will be the best Christmas,ö she said.
So in just over three weeks, Mattenheimer enlisted the help of friends, church members and civic organizations to stage the event. He wanted to make it something special, and wanted it to be for the neediest of needy children locally.
The needy families were selected from a list culled from several local organizations, including Tick Tock Early Learning Center, LaComunidad Hispana, Domestic Violence Center of Chester County, and HIS Mission in Kennett Square, an organization that aids homeless people.
ôThere are a lot of needy children out there,ö Mattenheimer said. ôWe canĺt save the world, but we can start making an impact here. A lot of people in this community with big hearts and a love for children stepped up to the plate, and this is what we have. What you see is a miracle.ö
The Christmas trees and decorations were donated by the Community Warehouse Project of Chester County.
ôWe cleaned out our warehouse,ö said Sheree Richnow, president of the organizations. ôThis is awesome. Iĺm so impressed with how many people are helping.ö
Hundreds of community members helped with the project, which came together in three weeks. One of them was Ross Weaver.
ôAnytime you can feel better about helping needy kids and see them have a great Christmas, itĺs great,ö he said.
Parents and children were treated to a wide variety of food and desserts, all donated by local restaurants and residents.
ôThis was all made fresh and donated by the community,ö she said. ôIĺve got 15 trays of ziti, salad, so much food.ö
The Church of the Open Door in Kennett Square was just one of the many churches who pitched in to help.
ôThe reason for the season is to extend Godĺs love,ö said Deborah Tanksley-Brown, deacon. ôThis is about extending Godĺs love and compassion, and what we see is the presence of peace and joy.ö
Anita OĺConnor, executive director of the Kennett Senior Center, said she was happy to see so many smiling faces.
ôI think this is a wonderful event that brings people together in the best possible way,ö she said. And itĺs generational too. A lot of children who would not be having Christmas, will now because of this event.ö
Mettenheimer said the event will be held annually.
ôIt all started with a vision, and we took a leap of faith for the children,ö he said. ôI think every community wants to do something like this, but they just need somebody to spearhead the charge. These are very, very needy children. And they are having a wonderful Christmas.ö


text: Posted November 7, 2012 What about conservatives being extremely against the Fair Pay Act? How do you justify that? Single females were understandably upset because that one "dumbass's comments" was indicative of the mindset of that party. If I was a single woman (a group that is outperforming their male counterparts in college attendance and graduation) I would be pissed as hell that a man got paid more for the same work. The Republican party is completely out of touch with the fact that they are out of touch; it's amusing because if they tried a little bit more they could carry both the black and hispanic vote. Both communities are extremely socially conservative at heart. I don't remember conservatives making a big deal about the Fair Pay Act. Many people, including yourself apparently, falsely believe it is based on "equal pay for equal work." Instead, it is based on the median income of all men working all jobs, getting all pay compared to the median income of all women working all jobs, getting all pay. The woman in the middle (the median income) had a pay equal to 77% of the man in the middle (the median income). It only factored compensation in dollars, not in benefits. The Fair Pay Act did nothing but extend the time that a person can claim to have been a victim of discrimination. It did nothing to encourage employers to hire women. It did not ensure that women will have paid sick days to tend to sick children. It did not ensure that single mothers could afford adequate child care. It did not ensure a workplace free of sexual harassment. Since its enaction, the pay gap between men and women has widened even more. This gap has increased despite a trend of several decades showing the gap was narrowing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Found this while searching for a healthy treat for my sweet-tooth lovin' hubby. He needs to watch his sodium, fat and cholesterol so adapted as follows: Used all whole wheat flour, cut the salt down to a pinch, added 1-2 T. ground flax (blended in with butter and sugar), used 1/2 cup brown sugar plus 1 T. honey (no white sugar), used cinnamon applesauce (no sugar added kind), and added 1/2 cup chocolate chips, 1/2 cup craisins, and a little bit of roasted pepitas (because they were already mixed with the craisins!). These cookies are moist, flavorful, filling and hubby says he likes them better than the real thing! I recommend adjusting sugars/honey depending on how sweet you like yours... This will be a new favorite in our house!
My husband is at the store now buying another round of staples so that we can make our fourth batch of these great cookies! I find that you can use all wheat flour and Splenda sugar products and still get an awesome and low-fat dessert. If you find your cookie dough is too dry, double up on the applesauce and drizzle a bit of EVOO. These are really filling and a great "in-between meals snack" when you probably need an energy boost too!
Great recipe, loved it. I made some modifications which came out close to this but could have used a tad more sugar. I wanted to make Congo Bars but forgot I lacked the proper pan so I fired the whole shabang into a pie plate and made a pie of sorts. Also used 1/2 wheat and added a bit of wheat germ. So, I changed this quite a bit but the foundation was great. Thanks, this is a keeper, I'll go straight 'by the book' next time :-)

MIAMI (AP) - Colin has weakened to a tropical depression Bermuda and could fully dissipate later in the day.
Colin's maximum sustained winds were about 35 mph (55 kph) Sunday.
The storm's center was passing near Bermuda, but it steered clear of a direct hit.
A tropical storm watch is still in effect for the British territory, which could see 1 to 3 inches of rain and battering waves.
Forecasters at the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said the center of the storm is about 45 miles (75 kilometers) west of Bermuda and is moving north around 12 mph (19 kph).
In the Pacific, Tropical Storm Estelle has top sustained winds of 60 mph (95 kph) as it heads away from Mexico.

Music Disco Yodelling
posted by November 30 at 11:53 AMon
First, some background: I first met Dan Savage in the early-mid-'90s, when he was a drag queen sex columnist and I was a bookstore employee performance artist. He started directing my shows, I started writing for his paper, and we started hanging out.
Back then, Capitol Hill's Broadway was littered in the spring and summer with what can only be called gay jeeps, brightly colored sports vehicles driven by brutally tanned and shirtless men, whose presence and motives beguiled both Savage and me. Key to the gay jeep experience was musichuge, thumping, techno-sex beats ("Everybody's FREEEEEEEEEE!!!!") blasting forth from each gay jeep, while the tanned-and-shirtless drivers did their best to act oblivious to the thumping racket, seemingly pretending the music was coming from somewhere else, like a personal soundtrack provided by God to underscore their great gay existence.
The sight of these stone-faced disco jeepers totally cracked my shit up, and before long, Savage and I began indulging in some gay jeeping of our own: Cruising down Broadway in my boyfriend-at-the-time's Pontiac van (ooh la la!), we'd roll down the windows, crank up the music, and do our best to maintain sexy stoic faceswhich wasn't easy, because I refused to blast any other song besides The Sound of Music's "The Lonely Goatherd."
Have you ever tried to look cool and sexy, or even just keep a straight face, while riding in a car blasting "The Lonely Goatherd"? It's next to impossible, but we spent most of the summer trying, cruising down Broadwayand on special occassions, through Volunteer Park's notorious "Boner Row"to the thrilling racket of Austrian children yodelling before an orchestra. It was never not hilarious.
Now it's eleven years later, and I don't visit Broadway enough to know if the gay jeep culture still exists, but if it does, there's a good chance one of the gay jeepers will soon be blasting my most cherished cruising anthem in an entirely non-ironic context, thanks to the new single by Gwen Stefani, entitled "Wind it Up".
(Thanks to Jake for alerting me to this bizarre twist of history and pop culture, and good luck to all of you in getting that damn yodel out of your head.)

Villagers nominated for the Mercury Music Prize
Conor J. O'Brien has just got the nod in London!
The Hot Press Newsdesk, 20 Jul 2010
Team Hot Press is delighted to report that Villagers' Becoming A Jackal has been nominated for this year's Mercury Music Prize.
While admittedly a bit biased, we reckon the boy O'Brien's debut offering has a pretty decent chance of beating The xx's xx, I Am Kloot's Sky At Night, Foals' Total Life Forever, Dizzee Rascal's Tongue N' Cheek, Laura Marling's I Speak Because I Can, Kit Downes Trio's Golden, Wild Beasts' Two Dancers, Paul Weller's Wake Up The Nation, Mumford & Sons' Sigh No More, Biffy Clyro's Only Revolutions and Corinne Bailey Rae's The Sea to that juicy big cheque.
Villagers have just this second played at the Mercury launch bash, which is taking place in London's Hospital Club. More as we get it!
