Real Vampires Don't Diet
Gerry Bartlett - Author
- Paperback: $14.00 add to cart
Real readers love this series and its "vampire to die for"(Kimberly Raye, USA Today bestselling author of Dead End Dating)-from the author of Real Vampires Get Lucky."Glory is everywoman with fangs."
Gloriana St. Claire-curvy, stylish, and undead-is spending New Year's Eve alone. And it's all because her boyfriend, Jeremy Blade, is traipsing off to parts unknown to rescue his supposed daughter from the clutches of "dangerous radicals." But just as Glory settles in for the evening, a phone call from the bodyguard of a drunk, newly-undead rock star could end her year on a crazy note.
-New York Times bestselling author Nina Bangs
Dear Reader,
Real Vampires Don't Diet. No point when they're stuck exactly the way they happen to be on the day they are turned vampire. If Glory St. Clair had only known, she might have passed up a few meat pies and lemon tarts before going under the fangs back in 1604. But, with her brain fogged by lust for a hunky Scot, she wasn't exactly thinking clearly. Now, four hundred years later, the hunky Scot is still around and so are Glory's "generous" curves. In Real Vampires Have Curves, the first book in the "Real Vampires" series, Glory joined friends and settled in Austin, Texas, using her knowledge of "old stuff" to open a vintage clothing/antique shop.
In this fourth book in the "Real Vampires" series, Glory's dateless on New Year's Eve. Then she's called out to convince a newly made vampire, rocker Israel Caine, that falling on a stake isn't the best way to see in the new year. This sun worshiper never wanted to be a vamp in the first place and now he can't even get a buzz from his favorite Jack Daniel's. No wonder he's depressed. Glory and her shape-shifting bodyguard Valdez are on the case. But a midnight boat ride complicates things in a big way when Caine and Glory meet a displaced Siren who demands vampire sacrifices.
I've always wondered if vampires really are everywhere. Could they be hiding in plain sight, keeping a low profile? Working night jobs like checking at a mini-mart or at Wally World? I mean, do all of them have to be Dracula-wannabes? Maybe some really nice people just happen to be vampires, blending with humans and drinking synthetic blood or taking their daily ration and wiping our memories of our donation. No harm, no foul.
Honestly, that's what authors of fiction do. Ask the "What if" questions. And our imaginations supply the answers. In Glory's world, vampires live peacefully, for the most part, among humans. Glory, whose real name is Gloriana, has to change her name every twenty or thirty years or so and move to keep from getting noticed. Just like any person who never aged would have to do. Now that we have such cool plastic surgery, she can stay in one place a little longer. See where I'm going with this?
Of course, all is not sweetness and light in Glory's world. There are big bads in the vampire community. And other entities: shapeshifters, weres, demons, you name it. And of course there are the dreaded vampire hunters, who have figured out the vamps exist and are determined to annihilate them. Sigh. So Glory can't just run her little shop, enjoy her lover and blend in undisturbed. Besides, then I wouldn't have a story, would I?
Hope you enjoy this latest in the Glory St. Clair series. Remember, Real Vampires Don't Diet. As Glory can tell you, it wouldn't work because, believe me, she's tried. Oh well, twenty-three forever? I'd take it.
Happy reading and happy new year!
— Gerry Bartlett

The Events Calendar 3.0 is a FREE open source plugin with a rich set of features. The plugin is being actively updated with regular releases and bug fixes. We will not be providing any support for non-paying open source users.
Events Calendar PRO 3.0 is a premium add-on which provides a whole new set of features including recurring events, custom event attributes, more calendar views, advanced widgets and a whole lot more. Buying PRO or our other add-ons entitles you to free updates and active support for 1 year from the date of purchase.
All of our plugins are sold with a one-year license. That means that for one year from the date of purchase, you have access to plugin downloads, new version releases, and our premium support. You can sort of think of it as like a magazine subscription. After the year is up, you need to renew again to keep that same level of service.
Once you buy a plugin, it will continue to work even if your license expires. You will not lose your data or any functionality out of the plugin itself. But you will lose access to downloads, updates, and support. If at any time in the future you want to renew that license and get those perks back, you can do so through your account on tri.be.
Happily, we provide discounts to our returning customers. So after your initial purchase, the yearly renewals will be discounted below list price as a thank you for your loyalty and continued support.
Please note that the big Events Calendar PRO 3.0 update is available free to everyone with a valid license. Updating from the current build does not require any new purchases or extra fees. Like other version updates, it's part of the package.
If you have any questions about how this works, please don't hesitate to send us an email or post in our Pre-Sales forum.
The Events Calendar PRO will continue working even when the license has expired. You can buy it once and use it for years until it is so old that it will tell the other plugins stories about having to walk uphill both ways back in those good old days. =)
The license allows you to access to upgrades or support while it is valid. Your license is valid for one calendar year from the date of purchase.
You should. It is always best for you, the site owner, to have access to your account on tri.be. That's how you access downloads, license keys, order history, and support. You can purchase the plugin under your own name and then give the developer the license key for the site. That way, you retain control of your own plugin purchase in the event that you need access or decide to switch developers.
Also, please note that you cannot change your account's username. So if your developer buys a license and makes an account under their name, that is the name you will have to stick with.
We have a dedicated support forum for each of our premium plugins. These forums are monitored on week days. That is the best place to pose your questions; not only does our team moderate the forum and provide light plugin support, but other users are always chiming into the the discussions with their own thoughts — which makes for a solid experience on all fronts, and allows a number of perspectives that wouldn't be present during an email exchange.
Please note that it may be 24-48 hours (during the week) before we respond to a post. Generally it's significantly faster, but particularly during heavy support times we ask that you be patient. Posting a detailed thread in the forum is the fastest way to get support. Please do not email, as we do not provide any support over email or on the phone.
Also, please keep in mind that our support forums focus on helping people with bugs and other issues, and we can not provide in-depth support on complex customizations of our plugins. Most legitimate bugs that are reported will be logged and fixed for the next release; if a workaround can be easily provided, we'll share one in the interim. When it comes to customization, while we're happy to help point users in the right direction towards accomplishing a desired customization if we can, we won't build your site for you.
Because we don't have the bandwidth to provide direct support to users of the free plugin, most of the forum (with the exception of the "Pre-Sales" section) is locked down for anyone other than verified premium users. Anyone can browse, but to ask a question or comment, you need to have a valid account. You don't have to do anything to become verified other than complete a purchase of an add-on — your account is created upon completing your purchase, and the forum is available to use from there. Access to the support forum will remain valid for 1 year from your date of purchase. If you are a looking for support on our free Events Calendar plugin, you can head over to the WordPress.org forum and post your question there. That forum is not monitored daily but we do check in and try to assist as possible.
You sure can! And at a discount, too.
Upgrading a license allows you to go from one license variation to another. For example: if you own a Business license for Events Calendar PRO, you are entitled to updates & support for 3 site running the plugin. You may decide after a few months that you like using the plugin on client work, and would like to have it for future projects (yeah!). The Developer license, you've decided — with updates and support for 10 sites instead of 3 — would better meet your needs. Luckily, with our new upgrade feature, you can make the jump seamlessly and without having to buy a second license or reach out to Modern Tribe for an upgrade coupon.
The first step is to log in and navigate to Account Central -> License Keys. When you get there, look just beneath the Renew License button and you'll see links for any license types to which upgrades are available:
In the screenshot above, you'll notice "Developer" is the only upgrade type available. This is because you already have a Business license, which is one step below a Developer license. Were you running a Personal license (two steps below a Developer license and one step below a Business license), you'd have options to upgrade to either Developer or Business.
Click the link and you'll be taken to your shopping cart, where the upgrade has been added. Upgrades cost the price difference between your existing license type and the type you're upgrading to; for example, if you're upgrading from a Business license (which costs $100) to a Developer licenses (which costs $250), you'll owe $150. Apply any coupons you've got, proceed to checkout and complete the order process.
When your order is complete, head back to your License Keys. You'll notice that the license type has been upgraded, and the links below the Renew License button have updated (or disappeared if you've just upgraded to a Developer license):
Once you see that, you're all set to start using the license key on more sites.
We've also got a detailed blog post if you still have questions. And from there, should you encounter any problems, don't hesitate to drop us a line.
This question has come up quite a bit since the launch of Events 2.0: users who have effectively two sites (a staging site and the live/production site), wondering whether they'll need to buy two license codes to get the plugin working properly.
We put a blog post together covering this, which you should review, but the short answer is no. Since the license is only needed for accessing support & plugin updates down the road — and doesn't impact actual functionality — you have two options here. You can either ignore adding the license to your dev site all together, and wait to plug it in until your deploy to production/live. Or, you can add the license to staging and then unlink it from that site at launch time via the License Keys section of your account at tri.be so it's available for the live site.
Either way, one license is plenty for your staging/live needs.
Add-ons are a great way to extend what the plugin can do. All our available free and paid plugins and add-ons can be found over on our main products page.
To stay up to date on new plugin development, beta testing opportunities, and more, you can "Like" our Facebook page or follow us on Twitter. You can also subscribe to our email newsletter at the bottom of this page.
We've got a demo site set up right here so you can check out Events Calendar PRO and our other add-ons. You can also take a look at some of the screenshots from the admin side of things on the PRO product page. Check out the wide variety of styles, functions, and applications that can happen with The Events Calendar, Events Calendar PRO, and our other plugins.
We're working on a cool showcase which will include some of the coolest implementations of our products on the web. Coming soon!
The best way to get a feel for the admin site of our products is to check out the New User Primers and other resources on our Tutorials page. These include extensive video and screenshots showing the admin interface. At this time we do not have a admin demo that potential users can interact with themselves, although we're hoping to add something like that in the future.
Our requirements are the same as WordPress: we require at least WP 3.3, PHP 5.2 and jQuery 1.7. We always recommend that you update to the latest version of WordPress available.

We do our best to provide useful translations, but please note that the translations may not be 100% complete. If you find an incomplete translation for your language and are willing to contribute to finishing it out, we'd love to hear from you. We're always looking for help updating and adding to our translations. You can read more about that here.
We try to keep this list as updated as possible. Please email us if you have any questions about what languages are currently available. Translation files for languages marked coming soon may be available via email.
We process online payments via Stripe, which accepts credit cards. We take Visa, American Express, Mastercard, Discover, and JCB. We do not accept orders over the phone or mail.
Refunds are available only in certain circumstances, during which you'll need to communicate to our team the issue & why you think you're entitled to a refund. We're expecting everyone to read through our FAQs before purchasing the plugin — so if you buy it and aren't satisfied with the functionality when that was explicitly stated in the documentation, we unfortunately won't be able to provide a refund. Please also note that we cannot provide refunds in any circumstances if it has been 30 days or more since your purchase.
We've been paying special attention to the migration path between a 2.x plugin and 3.0 so that people can click update and have their events show up. To be safe though, you should carefully back up your database before upgrading as life can always offer a bit of adventure when we least expect it.
Under the hood, The Events Calendar (and Events Calendar PRO) will continue to treat events as the same kind of custom post type – so the process should be as seamless as possible.
Technically, you only need one license for a multisite installation because you only input the license on your main network site. However, we ask that you purchase the license package that accurately reflects the number of sites you'll use the plugin on. For example, if you are planning to use the plugin on a 10-site multisite, we ask that you purchase our Developer level license. That reflects the amount of value you're getting as well as covering any support you may need on those sites.
We have a Non-Profit Partnership program for qualified organizations which entitles them to a free .zip file of our plugins. That way your organization can get the cool features of our premium products. When we release a new update we can provide those files as well. However, if you need automatic updates, premium support services and/or forum access, you will need to purchase a license.
Please note that we don't offer sponsorships with primarily religious or politically affiliated non-profits. We have such a diversity of beliefs on our team that we prefer to keep that off the table. We only accept 501(c)3 and 501(c)19 organizations and the international equivalents.
If you'd like to apply, please fill out our application. Once approved, we will email you back with a .zip file of the plugin(s) requested, as well as instructions for providing a sponsor link on your site. We ask that all our non-profit partners include a link to Modern Tribe on their calendar or sponsor page, and do a thank you post on Twitter and/or Facebook.
We reserve the right to refuse partnership with any organization at our discretion.
There sure is. You can check out the rest of our FAQs, our tutorials page (which includes the super useful New User Primers), our help videos listing, and our documentation page for your coder types. You might also want to browse our forums to see if another user's experience can shed some light on your project. Got a suggestion for a walkthrough or FAQ question that we haven't covered yet? Let us know.
All of our WordPress plugins are licensed under GPL2, as inherited by WordPress (http://wordpress.org/about/license/).
WooTickets used the payment gateways supplied by WooCommerce. The free WooCommerce plugin comes with six basic options: Direct Bank Transfer, Check, Cash on Delivery, Credit Card (via Mijireh) and PayPal.
WooCommerce also has a large number of payment gateway extensions available for purchase that can be used with WooTickets.
Events Calendar PRO is an add-on that works in together with our core plugin, The Events Calendar. So the first step is to make sure you have the latest version of The Events Calendar installed. You can download it here.
Once you've purchased Events Calendar PRO or one of our other premium plugins, you can access your downloads and license keys on the tri.be site. To download the plugin, navigate to Account Central –> Downloads. From there you can download the plugin and add it to your WordPress site.
You'll also want to add the license key to your WordPress site so that you get automatic updates when we release new versions. On tri.be select Account Central –> License Keys. Copy the key and head over to your WordPress dashboard. Under Events –> Settings –> License Keys you'll see a box to paste it in. Hit save, and you'll be all set.
We recommend that you also read through the New User Primer, which includes a video walks for installing and activating the plugins, using your license key, and getting starting making events.
Look for the "Account Central" dropdown after logging in at tri.be and click the "License Keys" option. They'll bring up a list of all your current license keys. It also shows what site the license is being used on, and gives you options to unregister the key from that site, upgrade your license, or renew your license. You can also find your license key in the email you received after your purchase.
We've got a mini tutorial on this process right here. If you have any questions, you can post in the forums or email us.
Once you have Events Calendar PRO installed, you can update directly from the WordPres admin whenever we release a new version.
If an update is available for either The Events Calendar or Events Calendar PRO, you'll be prompted on the plugins page to apply that update. You can also check your WordPress Updates page. Note that you will only be prompted to update Events Calendar PRO if you have a valid license entered under Events –> Settings –> License Keys. If your license has expired, you'll want to head over to tri.be and renew it to regain update privileges.
The URL of your calendar depends on the Events Slug URL setting found in the Events → Settings → General screen. By default it is set to events and so your calendar URL would be example.com/events – however if in doubt you can easily determine this by visiting the aforementioned admin screen:
(You can see that it gives a preview of the actual URL.)
The single event URL slug is used for individual events. For instance, example.com/event/christmas-party. Both of those slugs can be changed via that same admin page.
You can add links to your calendar, calendar categories, or specific events using the WordPress Menu Builder. If you are not familiar with the Menu Builder you'll want to review this tutorial.
In your dashboard, select Appearance –> Menus. On the left hand side along with the usual meta boxes for Pages and Categories you'll see Events and Event Categories.
To add a link to your calendar, click View All in the Events meta box. At the top of the list you'll see an option for Events. Check the box and then click Add to Menu. That will make a link to whatever is your default calendar views.
To add a link to a specific event, select the event from the Events meta box and click Add to Menu.
To add a link to a categories of events, select the categories from the Event Categories meta box and click Add to Menu.
You can also link to The Event Calendar's custom URLs.
Frontend venue pages are a PRO-exclusive feature, and can be accessed by clicking into an individual entry on the frontend. While free users will see the venue name as plain text, it will appear as a link for PRO users:
When clicked you'll be taken to the frontend venue page, a new feature for 2.0, that gives the description & location of a venue followed by all events taking plcae there.
Setting up your first recurring event? We've got a whole video tutorial on the subject! Check it out here.
Head on over to this tutorial page. Our King of Community, Rob, will walk you through renewing or upgrading your license.
If you'd like your site visitors to go directly to your calendar page, you can use a redirect plugin. Under WordPress Settings –> Reading, leave the Front Page Displays option as Your latest posts. Then use the redirect plugin to redirect www.yourpage.com to www.yourpage.com/events. That way visitors will go directly to your calendar, and see whichever view you've selected as default under Events –> Settings –> Display.
For an example of a redirect at work, check out our demo site at http://wpshindig.com.
Each calendar view has its own URL that you can use to link directly to that view. Whatever you have set as your default view (under Events –> Settings –> Display) will be located at www.yoursite.com/events/ (where events is the slug you set in the general Events Settings). Beyond that, you can find the different views at the followings urls:
- List View: events/upcoming
- Month/Calendar View: events/month
- Week View: events/week
- Day View: events/today or link to a specific day with the format events/yyyy-mm-dd/
- Map View: events/map
- Photo View: events/photo
You can link to a specific category of events by using /events/category/category-slug/
You can link to a list of events with the same tag using yoursite.com/tag/tag-slug/
You can link to a list of past events at /events/past/
Not currently — as it stands, events can go out but can't come in. The 3.0 release of the plugin includes exporting to iCal and Google Calendar as a feature available to PRO users. Exporting to Outlook is not supported at this time but may arrive in a future release. As for the broader question of importing, we are developing on some ideas but don't have any release dates on the books. The first up will be a CSV-based importer, to be added during the 3.0 lifecycle.
Sure! We'd love to hear what would make PRO more valuable for your needs. Head on over to our Feature Ideas forum to suggest and vote on ideas.
We offer no guarantees that all feature requests will make it, nor which will be included in the next release. We value everyone's opinion and are always looking to make this plugin better.
Yes. Events Calendar PRO adapts itself to the language your WordPress install is using. It will default to English, unless you run WP in a different language — in which case the calendar will reflect that. The Events Calendar and our add-ons feature translation files for a number of languages. The most recent list of available languages may be found here. If your language isn't listed, you can make a new translation.
To change the language your WordPress install is referencing, follow these directions:
- You'll need to know your language's code. Each language has an official code that WordPress uses to reference it, so you'll want to double check on the language list what code you're looking for. For example, the code for German is DE_de.
- Make sure the language files you need are in place. Go to wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/lang and check the list. There should be two files for each language code, a .po and a .mo file. If your language files aren't there but the language is on our translation list, post in the Translations Forum and we'll look into it.
- Open your wp_config.php file. Scroll down to line 64 (or thereabouts). It will look something like this:
- Enter your language code after WPLANG. For example, to change your site's language to German, you would enter de_DE:
- Lastly, in your dashboard, go to Settings –> Permalinks and clear your permalinks. You should now see the language you enabled. Keep in mind that translations may not be 100% complete or may only exist for some plugins, so you may still see some English.
Please note that some elements of the calendar, such as days of the week and month names, are translated by WordPress itself and not via our plugin translations. This means that if you do not have the WordPress translation files loaded for your language you will see some untranslated words in your calendar, even with your language set in wp-config. To fix this, you'll need to download and install WordPress for your language.
Head to Settings –> General on the backend, find the "Week Starts On" dropdown and select the weekday of your choosing. The dropdown is identified below in figure A below, or you can watch a screencast of the process.
Figure A: Changing when the week starts:
Note: this tutorial is for tickets that will be going to Eventbrite via our Eventbrite Tickets plugin. If you want to change the default currency symbol for your calendar, go to Events –> Settings and scroll down to the Default Currency Symbol option.
Our Eventbrite Tickets add on is currently set up in such a way that for most customers, when they register an event in WordPress on EventBrite, their ticket price will be translated into USD ($). That isn't desirable for customers elsewhere, but it can easily be amended by adding a small amount of code to your theme's functions.php file.
You can find the code here. Note that, as is, that code will set the currency to Euros – to change this, simply follow the instructions in the comments and replace EUR with the appropriate currency code for your jurisdiction.
If you're using PRO, there's a widget built in that will do just this. It's called the "Events Calendar" widget; simply add it to a sidebar like you would any other widget and set the options for it as you see fit. Here is a preview of what it will look like:
In some circumstances it may be necessary for you to do a manual update of your plugins. First you'll want to log into your account on tri.be and go to http://tri.be/my-account/downloads/. From there you can download the latest version of any plugins that you have a valid license for.
Once you've downloaded the .zip file(s), go into your WordPress dashboard. Deactivate and delete the plugin(s) from your Plugins page. You should not lose data, but we recommend that you backup your database first just in case. Then install the new version of the plugin and activate it. It will work best if you deactivate and delete all the Events plugins and then install them all again, instead of one at a time.
You can. This option is only available to PRO users, though, since frontend venue pages are a PRO-only feature. Log on to your sites backend, and in the sidebar find Events –> Venues:
Find the venue you want to add a description for in the list, and click into it. The page you're taken to will look very similar to what you see when creating a new post; beyond the title, you'll see a regular entry body followed by the venue information below:
The description field is where you can add your location details. It operates just like any other WYSIWYG editor, so feel free to add imagery and otherwise spice up your venue description as you see fit.
Customized defaults are an option for Events Calendar PRO users. Log on to your site's backend, scroll to Events –> Settings, and click the Default Content tab:
Check the "Enabled" box to turn your customized defaults on, and then fill in the fields you want to use. Remember that these options will be automatically filled in on your New Event page, but you can still change them there as needed.
You can add as many or as few custom default options as you want — in the screenshot above, all I've set is a default state (Washington). If I wanted to save even more time on the event creation side, I could set a default address or make a custom list of countries.
You sure can! Head on over to our Translations Forum and read the Getting Started post. You can see a list of existing translations here. Do you need help using one of our translations on your site? We have a tutorial on changing your site's language.
Not at this point — this is an industry standard, and we likely will be keeping it as-is until that changes.
We've tried hard to make The Events Calendar play nicely with as many themes as possible. Unfortunately, because the incredible amount of diversity between themes, it is simply impossible to make our calendar look perfect in every single case.
Fear not, however, as there are a number of ways you can tweak things and – though it does rather depend on the nature and severity of the problem – it can often be quite a simple task to remedy this.
Your first stop should be the Events → Settings → Display admin screen where you should take a look at the Events template setting. By default you should be able to choose between:
- Default Events Template
- Default Page Template
- You may also see other templates that are specific to your theme
So, try experimenting with these – and remember to save your changes! – and see if you can achieve a more desirable appearance this way first of all. If you are not averse to writing a little code then you could also consider setting this to Default Events Template and then go ahead and tweak the template by means of a "template override" – we have some guides to doing this in our tutorials section.
If that doesn't help, or even if it gets you some but not all of the way to a solution, you may find you need to change or add CSS rules to your theme's stylesheet: you might even discover that The Events Calendar's own CSS rules are getting in your way. If that's the case, take another look at the Events → Settings → Display screen.
The Default stylesheet used for events templates setting lets you choose between three levels of styling:
- Tribe Events Styles – our most comprehensive level of default styling
- Full Styles – this also adds a lot of styling but leaves more scope for your theme's own "look and feel" to shine through
- Skeleton Styles – this is a very minimal level of styling and is ideal for those who wish to roll their sleeves up and build their own custom set of rules
Again, simply toggling between these – the last two options may be particularly useful if you are at home writing your own CSS – can be time well spent.
If you're having trouble integrating your theme with Events Calendar PRO, you can also post on our premium support forums to see if we can help out. It's important to set expectations, though, that The Events Calendar and its add-ons will not integrate smoothly out of the box with every single theme out there. We will do our best to point you in the right direction, but we cannot provide extensive theme support.
Please note that we do not provide refunds because of theme conflicts. If you are wondering about theme compatibility, we recommend that you test your theme with our free core plugin before purchasing the PRO version.
If you know you've made an event, but the backend list of events is empty, try the following:
- Deactivate Events Calendar PRO. Then reactivate it. If this solves the problem, you are done
- If you have the Advanced Post Manager plugin installed, deactivate it. APM is bundled in The Events Calendar PRO and does not need to be installed as a separate plugin. If this solves the problem, you are done
- If you have the NEXTgen Gallery installed, deactivate it. There is unfortunately a known conflict with that plugin. If this solves the problem, you are done
- Ask your host about your database queries. Are you hitting a limit? Can it be raised? What is causing you to hit the limit? Your host should be able to help you.
Hope this helps!
To start:
- Make a backup of your database and files (can be done using a service, by your hosting provider, or via a backup plugin)
- Using FTP, delete the plugin from your account (do not use the delete button on the plugins menu in WordPress)
- Restore your plugin to whatever version you had previously installing your previous version. You can get previous versions of The Events Calendar here.For Events Calendar PRO or another paid product download that you need from your account's download page.
That's it. Done. Finito. This ought to get you back to where you need to be, and from here you can make the tweaks needed to prepare the site for a smooth upgrade. If you're still having problems, please don't hesitate to let us know on the forum and we'll do our best to get you sorted.
The best way to report a bug would be to do so at the support forum for add-ons or the open source forum for free users. You can also feel free to shoot them in an email to our support team. Please note that while we do track reported bugs, support will only be provided in the Modern Tribe forums. Please make sure to always include at least a screenshot/screencast demonstrating the issue and a link to your site if possible.
Before reporting any bugs, make sure you've checked to see whether this is actually a problem with our plugin or a conflict with your theme/another plugin. This can be done by just deactivating your other plugins one-by-one and/or reverting back to the default Twenty Twelve theme to see if the issue persists.
While we took every effort to ensure that the upgrade would be a smooth one, the 3.0 release is definitely a substantial upgrade from previous versions. We added a lot of new functionality, rebuilt the templates and generally overhauled the plugin in such a way that older customizations might not make the transition 100% smoothly. We do have a downgrade solution for folks in your position. To start:
- Restore your plugin to whatever version you had previously by deactivating Events 3.0 and installing your previous version. You can get previous versions of The Events Calendar here. Please email us for previous versions of Events Calendar PRO, or download what you need from your account's download page.
- Install our downgrade script as you would a plugin to restore your data.
- After downgrading your events plugin, you can simply deactivate the downgrade plugin.
That's it. Done. Finito. This ought to get you back to where you need to be, and from here you can make the tweaks needed to prepare the site for a smooth upgrade. If you're still having problems, please don't hesitate to let us know on the forum and we'll do our best to get you sorted.
If you can't find the Events URL Slug (and the corresponding Single Event URL Slug), it's likely because you don't have a pretty permalink structure — something other than the default, ie /%postname%/ — enabled.
To do so, just navigate to Settings –> Permalinks to make that switch; upon doing so, these slug fields should appear on Events –> Settings.
If the page title has take on the title of the first event, there are a couple of things you can do to fix this.
First, find out what you are using for your Events Template in Events > Settings > Template. Make note of the setting here. If you've got the "Default Events Template" option selected, then add the following code to your themes functions.php file and modify as needed to set the titles you want:
add_filter('tribe_get_events_title', 'my_get_events_title'); function my_get_events_title($title) { if( tribe_is_month() && !is_tax() ) { // The Main Calendar Page return 'Events Calendar'; } elseif( tribe_is_month() && is_tax() ) { // Calendar Category Pages return 'Events Calendar' . ' » ' . single_term_title('', false); } elseif( tribe_is_event() && !tribe_is_day() && !is_single() ) { // The Main Events List return 'Events List'; } elseif( tribe_is_event() && is_single() ) { // Single Events return get_the_title(); } elseif( tribe_is_day() ) { // Single Event Days return 'Events on: ' . date('F j, Y', strtotime($wp_query->query_vars['eventDate'])); } elseif( tribe_is_venue() ) { // Single Venues return $title; } else { return $title; } }
If you've got the Default Page Template selected, then first try opening up your theme's page.php file and look for where the_title() is executed. If you don't see the_title() in page.php, try looking in header.php. It helps to do a find in the file instead of scanning it but I'll leave that up to you. If you don't find the_title() in either of those files then it's either in another template or added dynamically some other way in your theme and you'll need to track it down. Try looking in your theme's documentation and look up where the_title() is executed. You may need to contact the theme author.
As an example, in your theme you might find:
<?php the_title(); ?>
<?php echo get_the_title(); ?>
Once you've found where the_title() is executed, you'll want to use these conditional wrappers: https://gist.github.com/2415009 – to help you conditionally set the title for any of the event related pages (look at the comments in the wrapper code). Basically you're going to want to hard code the title for the calendar (gridview) page similar to the following:
if( tribe_is_month() && !is_tax() ) { // The Main Calendar Page echo 'Events Calendar'; } elseif( tribe_is_month() && is_tax() ) { // Calendar Category Pages echo 'Events Calendar' . ' » ' . single_term_title('', false); } elseif( tribe_is_event() && !tribe_is_day() && !is_single() ) { // The Main Events List echo 'Events List'; } elseif( tribe_is_event() && is_single() ) { // Single Events echo get_the_title(); } elseif( tribe_is_day() ) { // Single Event Days echo 'Events on: ' . date('F j, Y', strtotime($wp_query->query_vars['eventDate'])); } elseif( tribe_is_venue() ) { // Single Venues echo get_the_title(); } else { echo get_the_title(); }
Pay attention to any specific code your theme may be using for the title too because you may want to wrap items in HTML and the like. Here is another example from a specific theme where the_title() would be wrapped in HTML markup:
<div id="pageHead"> <?php if( tribe_is_month() && !is_tax() ) { // The Main Calendar Page ?> <h1 class="home">The Main Calendar</h1> <?php } elseif( tribe_is_month() && is_tax() ) { // Calendar Category Pages ?> <h1 class="home">Calendar Category: <?php echo tribe_meta_event_category_name(); ?></h1> <?php } elseif( tribe_is_event() && !tribe_is_day() && !is_single() && !is_tax() ) { // The Main Events List ?> <h1 class="home">Events List</h1> <?php } elseif( tribe_is_event() && !tribe_is_day() && !is_single() && is_tax() ) { // Category Events List ?> <h1 class="home">Events List: <?php echo tribe_meta_event_category_name(); ?></h1> <?php } elseif( tribe_is_event() && is_single() ) { // Single Events ?> <h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1> <?php } elseif( tribe_is_day() ) { // Single Event Days ?> <h1><?php $title = 'Events on: ' . date('F j, Y', strtotime(get_query_var( 'eventDate' ))); ?></h1> <?php } elseif( tribe_is_venue() ) { // Single Venues ?> <h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1> <?php } else { ?> <h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1> <?php } ?> <?php $page_description = get_post_meta($post->ID, "_ttrust_page_description_value", true); ?> <?php if ($page_description) : ?> <p><?php echo $page_description; ?></p> <?php endif; ?> </div><!--end pageHead -->
I hope that helps! If you have any questions about this or need theme specific help, please open up a thread in our forum: http://tri.be/support/forums/
The input boxes for your license keys can disappear if you are running out-of-sync plugin versions. For example, if you are running The Events Calendar 2.0.9 and Events Calendar Pro 2.0.10, you may not be able to input new license keys. Check your plugin list under the Plugins in the Admin dashboard. The license numbers for The Events Calendar and Events Calendar Pro should match. If they don't, update as needed and refresh your Settings page. If you're having trouble downloading or need help, just shoot us an email and we'll help you get things sorted.
You probably haven't hit the "Enable Google Maps" checkbox on the backend, under Events –> Settings. Once that is enabled you'll have the option to embed Google maps in your frontend event listings and — if you're a PRO user — to see a map preview on the backend while creating your new events. Remember that after enabling Google Maps on the backend, you'll also need to set how it displays (ie embedded in the post; just a button to view at Google Maps; or both) within each event you create.
Chances are you've attempted to activate The Events Calendar or PRO when another version of that same plugin is already running. To activate the plugin, make sure all earlier versions of both plugin have been deactivated and that you are activating matching versions for The Events Calendar and Events Calendar PRO.
Don't worry…this isn't cause for alarm. When creating categories, the slug automatically adds a -2 when a category or tag with that same name already exists in the system. Still confused? Check out our screencast on the matter.
These are just notices to help our team test and are nothing to be concerned about. You shouldn't run wp_debugging on live sites, as little notices like that are just for dev purposes and can put the site's overall security at risk.
If you were asked to enable this by the support team and your issue is now resolved (or if perhaps a developer/designer working on your behalf left this in place) please go ahead and disable it. You can restore normal behaviour by:
- Changing define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true); to define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', null); in your wp-config.php file
- You may also need to change define('WP_DEBUG', true); to define('WP_DEBUG', false); in the same file (or indeed remove those lines altogether)
- You may also wish to visit the Events → Settings → General screen and ensure debug mode is not checked (remember to save your changes if necessary!)
There's an option for both free and PRO users, which can be found under Events –> Settings.
On the General Settings tab you'll see a "End of Day Cutoff" option with a dropdown featuring times from 12 – 11:30 a.m.
By default, this will appear to 12 a.m. But you can change it to a later time if that meets your needs; for example, if your event goes from 8 p.m. Friday to 1:30 a.m. Saturday, you can keep it from appearing in grid view as a Saturday event by setting the dropdown to 1:30 a.m. or later. The example above shows what happens when the dropdown is set to 2 a.m.; in this situation, the Friday-Saturday event would only appear on the calendar on Friday.
The plugin will use the date/time format you've specific in the general WordPress settings (Settings > General). That's the easiest way to set the format. You can read more about the possibilities in the WordPress Codex.
Alternatively, you can override the general settings by modifying the template views. For any of the template views that display the start or end date & time for an event you can simply pass in PHP date strings to re-format the date/time. To modify template views, please see our Themer's Guide. In general though, if you see one of the start or end date & time functions (tribe_get_end_date() or tribe_get_start_date()) you can simply pass in the PHP date string in the third argument slot in the function to re-format the date like so:
echo tribe_get_start_date( $post->ID, false, 'D. M j, Y' );
That would display the start date like: Mon. Jan. 15th, 2012
To add the time, just change the second argument to true to display the time:
echo tribe_get_start_date( $post->ID, true, 'D. M j, Y' );
That would display the start date like: Mon. Jan. 15th, 2012 6:00pm
We've got a whole tutorial on how and when to use template overrides. Check it out!
Some things were changed with the way queries are run in 3.0 and for any custom query you need to add the following argument in order for things to run properly:
No. This plugin works by rewriting the loops and doesn't use shortcode embeds for the time being.
With The Events Calendar 3.0 and above, you can add Event Category filter with our add-on plugin, Filter Bar. It not only allows sorting by event category, but also by venue, organizer, tag, and more! You can read more out it on the product page.
If you're using The Events Calendar 2.x, you can use a bit of code to add this function. We've got a mini tutorial available here (note, this workaround is not compatible with 3.0).
You may also be interested in a related FAQ, how to show a calendar with only one category of events.
The Events Calendar does not have a built-in way to filter events by category, but our Filter Bar add-on allows sorting by Category, Venue, Cost, and more. With The Events Calendar, you can show only the events in one category by making a link to that category in the WordPress Menu Builder. Along with Posts, Events, and other options, you'll see Event Categories on the left side of the Menu Builder. Here's an example of what that might look like:
The above settings will give you a menu dropdown with the category links. Each category link will show the calendar with only those events.
If you're having trouble, feel free to post a thread in our forums and we'll do our best to help out.
We've added event tags to Events Calendar 3.0. They function just like WordPress post tags. You can add them from the New Event page and view a list of your tags under Events –> Tags.
If you want users to be able to search for events by tag, you'll want to check out our upcoming Filters Bar add-on.
Yes! As of version 3.0 we have a setting for this. If you'd like your posts to show in the main blog loop along with your other posts, go to Events –> Settings and check the option that says "Include events in main blog loop" on the General Settings tab.
This feature is not built into The Events Calendar, but our friend Andy Fragen has written a plugin that lets you do this. You can read more and download it for free from the WordPress Plugin Directory. Thanks Andy!
There isn't a stylesheet for printing, as plugins don't typically come with print stylesheets unless it's a plugin that actually creates and inserts one for you. But, you'd actually want to do this via a print stylesheet in your theme… this is a pretty good guide on how to do that. Basically, in the print stylesheet you can input all the specific calendar styles you want to have set up for print.
You sure can! The Events Calendar provides its own RSS feed which can be found at http://your-url.com/your-events-slug/feed. The possibilities for customizing it are almost limitless. We've got a tutorial with some tips here. You might also want to check out this article.
The following capabilities are available for use when registering a new WordPress role:
We have an API that allows you to add, edit, delete or query for events. The API that we have exposed is essentially made up of functions that you can call to build events or extend Events Calendar PRO. You can find all the hooks and filters, as well as much more, on our documentation page.
With Events Calendar PRO, you can create additional custom fields to use in your event listings. Check out the video and tutorial here.
There are numerous ways to hide and move around elements in the dashboard. I would highly suggest two plugins for this, both of which are available on the WordPress.org plugin repo:
Taking this course of action involves two steps. (We're going to use Adminimize in this example, but keep in mind that Admin Menu Editor has a nice PRO version which — if you were to purchase — offers slightly nicer controls for this task.)
First, download and install Adminimize from the link above or via WordPress and activate it. Then go to Settings > Adminimize and deactivate the Events menu for any user groups you want. You'll also see that you have control over a lot of other things for your users with this plugin.
Second, add this code to your theme's functions.php file which will hide the Events admin bar drop down for non-administrators:
// show events menu in admin bar only for admins if (!current_user_can('manage_options')) { define('TRIBE_DISABLE_TOOLBAR_ITEMS', true); }
You'll need to modify it if you need specific control for certain groups. You can find more out about how to do that by looking at the documentation for current_user_can.
We've got you covered! Check out this handy tutorial.
There is. Just add the following to your functions.php file:
function run_init() { register_taxonomy_for_object_type('post_tag', 'tribe_events'); } add_action('init','run_init');
This will enable tags within events on the backend. To get the tags to display, you can use something like:
$terms = get_terms("post_tag"); $count = count($terms); if ( $count > 0 ){ echo "<ul>"; foreach ( $terms as $term ) { echo "<li><a href='/tag/" . $term->slug . "'>" . $term->name . "</a></li>"; } echo "</ul>"; }
Replace 'tag' with the tag base for your website.
Also, add this to your functions.php file to include events in your tag archives:
function include_in_tags( $query ) { if ( $query->is_tag ) { $query->set( 'post_type', array( 'post', 'tribe_events' )); } return $query; } add_filter( 'pre_get_posts', 'include_in_tags' );
NOTE: This approach does not include a solution to set tagged events with your events based slug. We will be including more robust event tagging in our upcoming 3.0 release.
Currently, the calendar view does stretch dynamically, although it may or may not gracefully pop into your template. The rest of the views use percentage based widths and should respond well, but there may be specific things you will need to adjust at different screen size breakpoints.
As of version 3.0, we've made some improvements to how the plugin responds at different screen sizes. As in previous versions, all of the views use percentage based widths for elements; that will allow them to respond to different screen sizes. We've made some further adjustments to the views so they look even better now at different resolutions. That being said, if your theme is not responsive; you likely won't notice much responsiveness anyway. If there are specific responsive actions or display preferences you would like to take place, you will need to code them yourself.
This plugin doesn't include any setting to control padding on a featured image. But you can still include it by adding some CSS or using a custom theme to support padding. Or, just upload it from your computer with the necessary padding already built in.
The basic time display settings are controlled by your WP install, under Settings –> General. Whatever you configure there will carry over to both regular WordPress posts and your events.
The easiest way to do this would be to simply edit the English translation file and make sure that change carries over to the live site.
These options cannot be removed from the admin bar without potentially breaking the entire plugin in the process. As a workaround, just change the permissions on the Organizer/Venue custom post types so that only admins (or whatever level of access you deem appropriate) can see them. This won't carry over to EventCategories, but will keep Organizer and Venue data locked down.
Venue maps do not appear in list view – they'll only show up when you click into the individual entry. If you want your events displayed on a map on the /events page, check out the Map View in Events Calendar PRO. You can see a screenshot in this Overview of Frontend Views.
Sure, take a look:
- _EventShowMapLink
- _EventShowMap
- _EventAllDay
- _EventStartDate
- _EventEndDate
- _EventVenue
- _EventCost
- _EventOrganizerID
- _EventPhone
- _EventRecurrence
- The Venue Custom Post type uses:
- _VenueVenue
- _VenueCountry
- _VenueAddress
- _VenueCity
- _VenueStateProvince
- _VenueZip
- _VenuePhone
- _VenueURL
- The Organizer Custom Post type uses
- _OrganizerOrganizer
- _OrganizerEmail
- _OrganizerWebsite
- _OrganizerPhone

Neighborhoods: Downtown
Waste of time and money – Started my treatment on a tattoo on my knuckles and hand. Was told that after each treatment the price would go down for each treatment, but it hasn't. I've had 2 treatments and after not seeing results after my 1st treatment I told them my issue and they offered me a free "test spot" where they did another laser dime size treatment to the same area. I went back after 6 weeks and paid for another treatment and still havent seen any results at all. After 3 treatments and not seeing any changes in the tattoo I would not recommend this place to anybody. Save your time and money by going somewhere else
Maddog Tattoo Removal utilizes the highest quality of lasers on the market to remove tattoo ink while keeping in mind the integrity of the skin. Unfortunately laser tattoo removal requires multiple treatments; typically 8-12 sessions are necessary to remove professionally injected ink. Our lasers work by initially targeting the ink deepest in the skin, therefore it is not uncommon for clients to not see a reduction of ink with the first few treatments as a result of multiple layers of ink in tattoos. However, most tattoos on the extremities tend to require an extra treatment or two due to less circulation. All of our pricing is determined by the size of a tattoo. In some cases after a few treatments the tattoo does not cover as large of an area as it did when we first started treatments, at which time we do adjust the price so that it is fair to the client while still following our size-based pricing. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any issues or concerns that you may have.
So far so good. – I am getting my huge tattoo removed on my back, it's about half my body my mid section, I like this place the most. I looked around @ the other tattoo laser removal places to get others opinions, on what kind of laser I should use, there prices, and find out what I felt more comfortable with. Mad dog is charging me 550 to get my piece removed, which is a darn good deal, other places charged 700-1,200, or around that. (you can see the tattoo @ Facebook search Merry Whitney, the really bad looking picture of the laser tattoo removal was from that other place I talk about later) It really is a big piece but I was looking for the best price, and the laser that would leave no scaring or little, since I am in the entertainment industry, my looks count. Michelle the person who does my laser removal, she is professional, and understanding of your needs, or pain going through the process. It's literally the worst pain I have ever felt on my body. Which is why I get pain meds prescribed from my doctor. I found the best way for me to be able to get through the session which lasts about 1 hour to 1.5 hours, is not talk to much unless we are doing a area that doesn't hurt as much, like the color, and take deep breaths, and when it really hurts count to 10, over and over. They put numbing cream on you before you go, but the pain is so intense sometimes I wondered if it worked, I'm sure it does though, some got into my mouth once and my lips where numb. I tried this other place which was closer up north, where I live, (later I found out they opened a location up north, and have one down south) and gave me a lower price @ the time, and had a newer laser. I didn't like it to much, me and the girl where arguing the whole time, b.c. she said it would take a hour or so to do my pieces, but it took a hour to do 2 small pieces, b.c. the laser they had was needle point, and Mad dogs it maybe nickel, or quarter, I don't really look @ the laser that much, but it covers more ground then a needle point. The other place also didn't put ice on the area that just gets laser, so having to sit there felt horrible, she kept saying you can't do that, it will affect how the color fades. Then she put this tight bandage over my wrist that just had laser, and that felt horrible, my arm was pounding from the burn and I know was starting to blister, the extra pressure wasn't nice on the wound. The girl @ the other place was acting like a huge B*T*H. All in all mad dog is the best place I experienced so far, and I asked around. The people who work there are nice also, and understanding, they will work with you on pricing, where other places are stubborn. They treat you as if you are valued, not just as a customer, but as a person, they care about your input and opinion on your situation your going in for. I just got my 4th session done and it's fading, well, but I don't think it could fade fast enough for me, lol I wait b.c. I have to, but I can't wait for my tattoos to be gone forever! yay! One time I tried to tip and they didn't except it, which was sweet of them, so I am writing a good review to repay the good service. That was nice of them b.c. you know how sometimes, people shove the tip jar in your face like HELLO, I don't like to feel pressured to give a tip, and they didn't do that, they just gave me good service that made me want to tip.
Real removal – 5 star
Love this place. You CAN remove a tattoo! – I have been seeing Jessica for laser tattoo removal for several months. She's so sharp and professional, and best of all, my unwanted tattoo is really fading! Mad Dog is housed inside Elements Laser Spa downtown. I never have difficulty parking on a weekday afternoon, and the spa itself is very clean, and nicely decorated. I work in the medspa field, so I did a lot of research before choosing Mad Dog. They are definitely the best place to go in Austin for this service. I also love their email confirmation system. I can't recommend this place highly enough.

Thank you MadDog! – I am very happy with Mad Dog Tattoo Removal. The employees there have been very good about explaining the process of tattoo removal and exactly what to expect and how it all works. The nurse was really gentle when doing the treatment since it has a bit of a sting. Their doctor sat down with me and went over the tattoo removal and didn't even charge me! I felt like they were really thorough, and they really care about their clients. Plus my tattoo has already lightened after just 2 treatments! I am very happy with them, next i plan on getting some other laser treatments they offer :)
Very Professional – They do their job well and handle patients with care.

text: content Recommendation #12: Maintain Optimal Blood Glucose Levels Tweet Blood glucose spikes, which commonly occur after eating, can last for hours or even a whole day. Those spikes can unfavorably alter gene expression in a way that may accelerate the processes of aging.1,2 By contrast, scientists have established that maintaining fasting glucose levels in the range of 70-85 mg/dL and not allowing after-meal glucose levels to spike higher than 40 mg/dL over the fasting value, favorably influences the body's longevity genes. 3-7 Calorie restriction has yielded robust extensions in life span, along with sharply lower risks of health issues. Yet some people, even when following reduced-calorie diets, still create too much glucose internally due to excess glucose-6-phosphatase, an enzyme, which prompts the release of additional stored glucose from tissues, even though there is already abundant glucose in the blood. Fortunately, there are several proven ways to achieve healthy glucose levels that do not require calorie restriction. And many approaches that promote healthy glucose levels also promote healthy levels of insulin,8-11 LDL,9,12-16 triglycerides,17-19 and C-reactive protein20 — thus promoting better overall health. Many Life Extension members already use nutrients, hormones, and drugs that encourage healthy insulin sensitivity, which facilitates healthier glucose levels.21-28 Yet too many health-conscious members are still not maintaining blood glucose levels within optimal range. Life Extension urges all members to enact an aggressive personal program designed to obtain fasting glucose levels at the healthy ranges of 80-85mg/dL (or lower). For healthy, after- meal blood glucose reading, look for a normal, in-range reading that increases no more than 40 mg/dL above your fasting value. This means if your fasting glucose is 80, your after-meal glucose should be no higher than 120 mg/dL. Maintaining these levels provides a profoundly effective, anti-aging impact as well as weight management benefits. Green Coffee Bean Extract (GCA™) A standardized green coffee bean extract has been shown to be an effective support for healthy blood glucose levels already within normal range via novel mechanisms previously unavailable.29,30 Scientific studies have clearly demonstrated that green coffee bean extract targets a healthy response to blood sugar. For example, clinical research found that a dose of 400 mg of green coffee bean extract encouraged healthy after meal blood glucose levels.29 Further research has suggested the compound responsible for this beneficial action on glucose metabolism is chlorogenic acid, which is found abundantly in raw coffee beans. Chlorogenic acid inhibits the enzyme glucose-6-phosphatase, which positively impacts glucose in the body.30,31 This unique dual property of chlorogenic acid provides a powerful new weapon in our quest to attain optimal fasting and postprandial glucose levels. Evidence has revealed that chlorogenic acid favorably modulates gene expression to enhance the activity of liver cells and increase levels of the hormone adiponectin, which enhances the body's response to blood glucose and supports heart health.32 If green coffee bean extract only optimized after-meal glucose levels, it would be well worth considering for anyone looking to achieve glucose levels within normal range. But as with so many other natural polyphenols, chlorogenic acid has demonstrated a wide range of additional protective properties.33-37 Green coffee bean extract also supplies the antioxidant compound ferulic acid, that has been shown to support healthy blood glucose levels already within normal range in tandem with chlorogenic acid.38 The potency of green coffee bean extract is now available as a natural compound called CoffeeGenic® Green Coffee Extract (GCA™). It is produced from organically grown beans through a patented extraction process and standardized to deliver 50% chlorogenic acids … an extraordinarily high proportion of chlorogenic acid for maximum potency. For optimal benefit, one vegetarian capsule of CoffeeGenic® Green Coffee Extract should be taken before heavy meals. A bottle of 90 vegetarian capsules, 200 mg each, retails for the reduced price of $25.00. If a member buys 4 bottles, the price is further reduced to just $16.50 a bottle. A bottle of 90 vegetarian capsules, 400 mg each, retails for the reduced price of $38.00. If a member buys 4 bottles, the price is further reduced to just $25.50 a bottle. Page 1 2 3

Atractosteus spatula (Alligator Gar)
Animal Fish
Family: Lepisosteidae
Classification: Prohibited
Gar have long cylindrical
bodies, with dorsal and anal fins well back on the body, and long snouts.
The swim bladder of gar acts like a primitive lung, allowing them to breathe
atmospheric air and survive in low oxygen conditions. They are distinguished
from other freshwater species by diamond-shaped interlocking (ganoid) scales.
The alligator gar, the largest species, has a broad snout and two rows of
teeth on either side of the upper jaw. Alligator gar may weigh as much as
300 pounds. Gar are native to the Mississippi river basin, and feed mostly
on other fish and occasionally crustaceans or waterfowl. The roe of gar are
poisonous to many animals, including humans.

Republican Mark Amodei entered Tuesday with one sizable advantage over Democrat Kate Marshall: Registered Republican voters came out in greater force than their Democratic counterparts during the early voting period, which began Aug. 27 and ended Friday.
District-wide, more than 40,000 registered Republicans cast an early ballot, compared to fewer than 26,000 registered Democrats. Republicans hold a 32,000-vote registration advantage.
In Washoe County, Republicans cast 18,552 ballots in the early voting period compared with just 14,635 for Democrats. Independent voters cast the remaining 4,600 votes.
Furthermore, registered Republicans have returned 713 more absentee ballots than registered Democrats as of Monday, according to Washoe County Registrar of Voters Dan Burk.
Burk said voter turnout is not likely to exceed 35 percent in Washoe County. As of 9:45 p.m. with 88 percent of precincts reporting, Washoe turnout was at 27 percent, according to the Secretary of State website.
But Barbara Rose and Barbara Boyd, mother and daughter, held out hope that Marshall could stage a late-game comeback.
Self-described Democrats, Rose and Boyd cast their ballot for Marshall at Dilworth STEM Academy in the late morning hours Tuesday.
Ten voting booths here had served more than 60 voters from five precincts in the first few hours operation, according to poll manager Paul Fulstone.
"This is an older district," he said, adding that turnout here was likely higher than in other places because senior citizens are a reliable voting bloc.
As for Rose and Boyd, the two cited several issues of concern that accounted for their votes, including health care. But the biggest concern of all was obvious.
"The issue is the economy, of course," said Rose, who is nearing 90 years of age. Boyd nodded in agreement.
When asked why they felt Marshall better represented their interests, both said Democrats are the party of the working class, whereas Republicans represent the wealthy.
"A Republican turns me off," Rose said.
Meanwhile, Nga Mues tapped the computer screen with her finger and cast her vote for Amodei at the Summit Christian Church in the early afternoon.
Ten voting booths were set up here to serve four precincts and only about 50 people had voted at this location in the first few hours, according to poll manager Allen Dreher.
"Early voting took a lot of steam out of Election Day," he added.
Mues, who left Vietnam before the fall of Saigon, married an American veteran of the Korean War and now lives in Spanish Springs, said government needs to act more responsibly when spending taxpayers' money.
"Spending is No. 1," she said of the issue that most worries her.
But Mues has little confidence that the economy will get turned around in the near future.
"It will take a long time getting back to so-called normal," she said.
When asked to describe how she felt about the troubled economy, Mues said she was scared of the economic prospects her grandchildren might face.
"I never had this feeling before," she said.
Ken Davis knows this feeling well.
The 52-year-old Sparks resident cast his ballot Tuesday at the Sparks Library, where 14 booths served voters from seven precincts.
"Turnout has been pretty brisk," said poll manager Mark Greenwell, adding that turnout was about on par with other election cycles, at least at this one location.
Davis has had difficulty finding full-time employment in recent months. He is currently working a temporary job after his carpet cleaning business fell on hard times.
Davis declined to say whom he voted for, but job creation was his single biggest priority heading into the voting booth.
However, Davis sees himself as a realist.
"I don't expect the president to do something instantly" to fix the economy, Davis said, adding that he would remain patient and continue looking for more steady employment.

Minneapolis — Nebraska shut out Minnesota for the second time this weekend to win the series with its 8-0 victory Sunday.
NU (23-26, 14-7 Big Ten) has won all four of its conference road series and improved to 9-3 away from home in Big Ten play.
Three Huskers combined on the shutout, with sophomore Aaron Bummer (2-1) going a career-high seven innings. The Peoria, Ariz., native held the Gophers to three hits and three walks while striking out three. Bummer allowed a pair of Minnesota runners to reach in the same inning once while retiring 10 straight at one point.
Ryan Hander and Jeff Chesnut worked the final two innings without allowing a hit.
It was the first time that NU posted a pair of shutouts during a conference series since 2005, when the Huskers shut out Oklahoma State at Haymarket Park. The last time Nebraska posted two shutouts in a road series was 2004 at Kansas State.
Kash Kalkowski led the Husker offense. The senior from Grand Island, Neb., finished 4 for 5, including his second home run of the year. It was Kalkowski's second four-hit day of the year and third of his career.
Every NU starter had at least one hit. The bottom of the Husker order was especially effective, as NU's Nos. 7, 8 and 9 hitters were 5 for 12 with five RBIs.
Nebraska wraps up nonconference play Tuesday with a visit to TD Ameritrade Park for a 7:05 p.m. game with Creighton. The Huskers then host Michigan for a three-game series beginning Thursday to conclude the regular season.

In 1776, a cowardly New Englander named Jonathan Muddlemore grabbed his cat, Boo, and hid from British soldiers inside a grandfather clock in an old, abandoned mansion.
Two hundred years later, a vicious storm forced three teenagers to hole up in the mansion, where they proceeded to reset the aforementioned clock to midnight. This action released the ghosts of Muddlemore and Boo, and the pair teamed up with the teens to fight crime.
Dubbed "Muddsey" by the teens, the still cowardly Muddlemore turned invisible whenever he got frightened, which was quite often. The gang rode around in the Looney Duney dune buggy, crisscrossing America and stomping out evil. Boo's ghost had a dustup in every episode with Elmo, the teen's pet bulldog.
Animated in Australia, The Funky Phantom was noted for its unique sound effects, which were unlike those in any other Hanna-Barbera cartoon. The show's run of original episodes only lasted one season, with repeats being substituted for the second season. After being canceled in 1973, the show's episodes were incorporated into The Godzilla/Dynomutt Hour with the Funky Phantom, proving once and for all that if you like Revolutionary War-era ghosts, you'll love them even more if they're joined by a giant fire-breathing dinosaur and a robotic crimefighting dog.
This last series only ran two months, after which the Phantom and Boo presumably fled to the veritable sanctity of their grandfather clock, embittered by the phoniness of show business.

I don't know if it was the fact that a couple of friends are going on a vacation soon or he just wants a chance to use the GPS system he got at the Thanksgiving Day sale at Wal-Mart, but on Saturday Ross asked me where I wanted to go on vacation. And this would be a bona fide trip, no overnight jaunt to a cave or a day trip to a state park. This would be one that required planning, figuring out when to take some time off and oh yeah, money. He was investigating how long it would take to get to such places as Yellowstone or a space museum in Alabama. I was just plain clueless as I haven't actually thought about vacation - not in January anyway.
So I suggested maybe visiting a couple of my friends, Andie and Ken, who live in Houston, Texas. I went to visit them back in 1999, and Andie's been after me since then to come there again. And by the way, there's a Space Center in Houston for Ross.
Later that evening, I was checking flight prices online (I don't think I'd have the time or patience for a drive down to Houston). I'd plug in random dates between now and April (before it gets too hot down there) and found that it was definitely cheaper to fly out of Sioux Falls than the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport. As I looked, I could see myself heading back down there again; I had told Ross maybe in the next month or two. But nothing's for certain.
I would like to keep this trip simple if at all possible. The last time I went out of the tri-state area was to my friend's wedding in Utah back in 2009. I had never been there, and I've heard all about the wonderful sights from another friend of mine who's been there a few times, so I was eager to see what the state had to offer. And it was the first time Ross and I had taken any form of vacation together. We stayed for a few days, exploring Timpanogos Cave, Antelope Island, Park City, Sundance and a little of the downtown area in Salt Lake City. Definitely a place I want to return to.
But if I had a year off and money was no object, a trip around the world would definitely be in order. I've been to England and France more than 20 years ago, but there's a lot more to see out there. I would like to see China and Japan, the pyramids of Egypt, check out Rome, visit Australia, go somewhere tropical like the Cayman Islands, Barbados, Bahamas. An African safari would be nice too.
But I do have to be realistic. Going to Houston, or even Yellowstone, would be more than likely for me in the next couple of years. There are plenty of states and places in this country I haven't seen. I haven't been to Washington, D.C. I haven't been to California, Florida or New York City. Yeesh, I need to get out more.

Children's Zoo at Celebration Square
Some of the animal residents may not be on exhibit due to the cooler, early spring temperatures.
This summer marks the 85th year that the Children's Zoo has been open! We have undergone so many changes since the zoo was founded in 1929! Do you remember the whale? Or the ark?
In the spring of 1930, the zoo collection consisted of a beaver, a coyote, a fox, bears, raccoons, timber wolves, owls, and hawks. Today, the Children's Zoo is home to over 150 animal residents! In 2009, we took a HUGE step toward a higher standard for animal care by becoming accreditted by the Association of Zoo's and Aquariums (AZA). In doing this, we joined the ranks of the Detroit Zoo, the Potter Park Zoo, and over 200 other zoos nationwide!
We would love to see your old pictures of the zoo! If you're interested in sharing your memories, stop by throughout the summer to drop off a copy (we can make one), or mail it to the following:
