Steve Cotterill admits Bristol City may not be able to use their new £1.2m Ashton Gate pitch before Tuesday night's clash with Oxford.
The Robins invested heavily in their playing surface during the summer and were unable to try it out during their pre-season campaign.
And Cotterill says it was not a case of resisting temptation but a move to make sure it was in the best possible condition for their Capital One Cup first round tie.
"When you are spending £1.2million on a pitch you want it to be right, so if we have to leave it then so be it," he said.
"If there would have been a game and the pitch would have been okay then we would have had a game on it for sure.
"We may not get on it until the game against Oxford which would be maybe a slight disappointment but we want to give the groundsman the best chance."

4images Importer
1 Attachment(s)
Import Instructions for 4images import.
1. Upload the two files to your photopost directory and CHMOD 4images.cnf.php to 777 2. Run the importer through your web browser and fill in all required info and paths for both programs 3. The importer will cycle through in steps each process. 4. After Import cleanup work needed. a. Under Scan Database recheck and build post number and check for children. b. Make sure to set any usergroup and categories permissions you see fit. c. Set your medium size threshold in Upload Options and under Scan Database rebuild your medium imags. d. Since they do not store username in the photos and comments tables under Scan Database run a resync usernames on photos and comments so usernames will be properly displayed |
could you update the script please ?
it dosent work this way |
from my testing the script works fine thanks.
You can always start a support thread if you have an issue but most all issues come down to configuration issues. |
I have many problems with this script... Many things are not working properly I sent you support email Can you helo me? Thank you |
You would have to post your issues. Your talking about some 8 year old script. It was written for whatever 4 images gallery existed back in May 2005. If your trying to use it with some newer product I am sure it would not work.
The first thing I would do is verify your inputting the correct information like table prefix paths etc. Then you can provide explicit urls and examples of your error. There is a definately limit here on the type of support I can provide on an 8 year old use as you wish importer. |
Sorry for my english Chuck...
I wonder Is there any way to connect the 4images users with the new ones in vbulletin? This import just move them from 4images to vbulletin and we have photopost integrated into vbulletin not as a simple script... |
Well this script is not written to import 4 images users to vbulletin that much I can tell you.
This little script is written to import 4 images to pro meaning standalone gallery to standalone gallery. The only way your users would align is if your 4 images was integrated with vbulletin but I do not know there features like I said this is an 8 year old script. It should work for what its intended to do which is import users categories photos and comments into photopost pro. where is your pro install at? |
This is just a demo Chuck
When everything would be working perfectly i will move to main page of the domain photoshop-designs. com/vb4import/galeria/ |
Delete empty spaces please
A community photo gallery - My Photo Gallery
Looks like the importer did its job perfectly if you ask me so not sure why your saying you have big issues with it. You can run this script to try realigning photo and comment userid's http://www.photopost.com/forum/photo...vbulletin.html There are a couple configuration issues with your gallery you need to fix. 1. in global options in admin make sure your seo setting is set to NONE as your server is not compatible with spider urls. You can not attempt SEO urls until you create HTACCESS to .htaccess. 2. in storage options in admin hit revert and save twice to load the proper urls and paths as your data url is missing a slash between galeria and data which is why the large image does not show on the photo display. |
We think we have done already all what you asked us to do but we it is not working
Users are diferent, seo is nor working for some urls and large image dont not show too :( |
I told your SEO might not work on your server as spider urls do not. Your server for SEO urls would need to support MOD REWRITE and the .htaccess file would need to be present.
All your images show the large and thumbnails so not sure what your trying to say. Your only issue is users do not align and nor should they right. Remember your the one running a script to import the content into a gallery that is aligned with a forum when your talking about some gallery you had that was a standalone. You can run the realign script I noted but that is only going to help you if the actual user exists in the forum with that exact username in the photos and comments so we can actually update the userid. Otherwise the photos and comments would be orphaned. I clicked around and it looks like the username displayed on the photos matches the forum so not sure what your issue is. La Rosa - My Photo Gallery Thats userid 1 on the gallery and forum looks aligned to me |
I'm having some problems with friendly url. I'm confident that my server supports mod_rewrite since I have it working with vbulletin but it doesn't work very well with photopost. I suspect it's something related to special characters used in spanish language like for example á, é, í, ó, ú, ñ... For example: if you have a photo named otoño, then the url is changed for this: oto-f1o.html instead this one: otono.html that is like vbseo Works in vbulletin or if the name of a category is panorámicas, the url is panor-e1micas.html instead panoramicas.html I mean: á should be changed for a é for e í for i ó for o ú for u and ñ for n How can we do it? |
They work fine but the url is not SEO because url is:
http ://w ww. photoshop-designs. com/vb4import/galeria/flores/p857-peque-f1a-flor.html And it should be this one: http ://w ww. photoshop-designs. com/vb4import/galeria/flores/p857-pequena-flor.html ñ is rewrite to f1 instead n |
Just because ñ is not written to n does not make it NOT SEO.
We rewrite umlates and stuff like that but I would not know special characters for every language here.
Do you have a list of special characters for your language? It would be easy to add them into the replacement array in pp-inc.php Code:
Content visible to verified customers only. |
This Works!
Thanks a lot Chuck! |
Like I said if you want me to include certain characters in our rewrite you would need to list them. I do not speak every language out there. ;)
You have it here, Chuck!

I was told by a St. Louis Animal Activist that Jason Smith, the one who just won, has family run puppy mills. True?
Jul 7, 2013
It is not true that all dog breeders are puppy mills ! Not sure of the exact number of kennels that have been shut down in Mo. since prop B But I believe the number is around 1200 kennels. |
Jul 16, 2013
Heard about the calavary group.They support and fight for the right to breed animals.I googled them.So if their are any type of animal breeders reading this post you might ck in with this group.
Jul 18, 2013
I know lots of good animal breeders. They have gotten a bad rap from the one's that don't follow the rules.
Jul 19, 2013
My question is, why aren't hunting dogs and puppies covered in this "puppy" mill bill? Lots of puppies are kept in cages and don't have access to adequate food n water and have to live in feces. Just curious?

Really have you no heart just really? It is obvious you don't care about animals. FORCING male dogs to fight to the death is cruel. Would you like it if you got put in prison and the guards let everyone in your cell and beat you to the death? That is how those dogs feel. Think about it. Using puppies for fish bait what the hell? Fish aren't attracted to puppies they are attracted to things that stink. Like your attitude for example. You would make good fish bait with that attitude of yours.
Forcing female dogs to have puppies is like forcing rape. Those dogs may not want puppies, if they wanted puppies they should be able to do that on their own WITHOUT anybody forcing them. So next time do us all a favor, choose a better attitude. You wouldn't like it to well if someone forced you to have kids against your will, now would you? We may have to put up with "Libs" but it's better than abusing poor innocent animals. Animals are supposed to be for love, affection, & protection, not abuse, neglect, & cruel what some people call "entertainment." Really if you want entertainment, then go buy something called a television, radio, or computer,just don't abuse them they did nothing. These poor animals can't fend for themselves unlike humans. So just think of that next time. Think I got my point across. |
Jul 21, 2013
How can a female dog be forced to have sex? Does that also mean that all the cows in the pasture with the bull are forced to have sex.And all the chickens in the hen house with he rooster are forced to have sex.Animales do not mate uless they are in heat.
Saint Louis, MO |
Jul 21, 2013
Well, I'm pretty sure if we caged you up, with no food, no water, and crammed in a cage. You wouldn't like it at all now would you? I think not. Hense the word "CAGES" with that many animals in one cage, do you really think it wouldn't get hot? Let's throw you in a cage, with a bunch of men, that haven't had a female in a while and see what happens. Please wake up and get a clue.
Saint Louis, MO |
Jul 21, 2013
dont cageme
Jul 21, 2013
To wake up! Lol Animal breeders don't put a female animal in a pen with several males.How would they know who the father was.In order to reg a litter of puppies or cows etc.u have to know who the parents are.Litters are DNA.

It's a stupid bill. I use to work for some people who had a dog kennel and took good care of their dogs. Because of stupid laws like prop b caused them to go bankrupt.
Jul 22, 2013
That is right.A lot of people lost their jobs due to this bill. |
Jul 27, 2013
People are still losing their livelihoods over this bill. The rules keep increasing until 2016. Then, the animal rights activists will regroup with additional demands. In the meantime, my grandmother (from Missouri) can't afford a dog that will grow up to fit on her lap. Not everybody wants to feed a pound mutt. If you want to buy a dog from rescue, that's fine, but don't argue that this bill was for animal welfare and then make a loophole for the vets, for the animal shelters and for the hunting dogs. |
Jul 27, 2013
go to springfeild missouri,,,when you try and adopt a pound pet there they tell you no,,,cuz you dont live in springfeild,,,its all a scam,,,they said your town has a pound so adopt there,,,but this towns pound is full of cats in the building and 5 miles away in front of some mobile home on a gravel road is a fenced in area for the dogs part,,,all outside,,,so the springfeild pound sucks as bad as the cat pound we have around these parts,,,and you know what they say,,,when you see a 1000 stray cats walking around a towns streets,,,this is a sure sign of a town full of witchcraft,,,and this town dont only have a inside full to the brim cat pound,,,it also has 1000 stray cats walking around the streets,,,ha haa haaa,,,if you want to have some puppies then sell them,,,just sell them and screw this law,,,ha haa haaa,,, |
Jul 28, 2013
We need to get it right!!
Jul 28, 2013
Dog breeding has gotten completely out of hand. No one should make a profit on the misery of animals. Unfortunately, my home state has the worst record of any state in allowing puppy mills. And any business that has more than, at most, six mother dogs is a
puppy mill. No one can adequately care for the health of dozens of puppies unless they hire a lot of help...and that doesn't happen. |
Jul 28, 2013
One day their will No dogs.Because they were forbidden to breed.And maybe we will be forbidden to eat any type of meat.And maybe we will be ruled on how many chidren we can have.Will we be ok with that .Most likely yes.
Jul 29, 2013
Missouri has just about the WORST reputation when it comes to Puppy Mills.. YES... something has to be done... Hoping people won't listen to the crap and scare tactics... vote YES... put a stop to some of the abuse ... anyone remember that Radar Woman? OMG she had nearly 200 dogs...lived in pure filth... that stuff has to be stopped |
Jul 29, 2013
Well it is a shame if any animal is abused.However it is also a shame when any animal is taken out of it's natural habita.

I turned around, arched my back, and somewhat wiggled my arse. I wanted him to fuck me, I wanted him to fuck me hard like the cockslut I am. He spat into my hole for extra lubrication and slowly slid the first few inches of his cock into my arsehole, making me moan and shake with pleasure.'Oh, fuck, Tommy,' I cried – just like the whore I am. He thrusted slowly at first, picking up speed and fucking me harder than before.
It wasn't long before I came the hardest I've ever came in my life, drenching the spot underneath me with my cum. 'Clean that hot mess up, son,' said Tommy. Moaning into the mattress, I licked up my warm cum whileTommy rode my arse harder and faster. Before long, he eventually shot his thick, hot load into my arsehole, grunting and moaning – all the while calling me a whore and his 'little bitch'. He pulled out and waved his still hard cock in front of my face, which I happily cleaned with my mouth.

If you are looking for good accommodation while visiting the city of Liverpool, take a look at the following options. This guide lists five of the best places to stay in Liverpool.
Hard Days Night Hotel
This is a four-star boutique hotel in the centre of Liverpool and is the only hotel in the world themed exclusively around the legendary Beatles. Set in a tastefully restored Grade II listed building, the hotel is located in an area famous for being frequented by the Beatles. Within the hotel, there are 110 rooms, including luxury suites and penthouse. Any true lover of the Beatles will be in awe of the pieces of art and items pertaining to this iconic group that are on show throughout the hotel. There is even original artwork from Sir Peter Blake, the artist credited with the design of Sergeant Pepper album cover and whom one of the restaurants is named after. Link
Parr Street
Stay overnight at the venue that has recorded the voices of some top artists over the years, including the Stereophonics and Take That. Whilst continuing to operate as a large music recording studio, Parr Street in Liverpool City Centre also houses a 12-bedroom hotel on the premises. Equipped with two bars, luxury en suite rooms with LCD TVs and top of the range mattresses, the hotel offers double and twin rooms alongside single mini rooms and a double mini room. Rest assured, the rooms have adequate sound protection to ensure that guests are not disturbed by the studio business. Link
The Malmaison chain of hotels has built up an exquisite reputation. Located on the waterfront, the Malmaison hotel at Liverpool's Princes Dock is housed in a purpose built building. Unique attributes of this hotel include an atrium, a yellow submarine and football themed rooms. Luxury food offerings, such as Champagne breakfasts, add to the decadence of this accommodation. Link
Sir Thomas Street Hotel
Located near to the financial district of Liverpool, the Sir Thomas Street Hotel is perfectly positioned for guests to enjoy the city's vibrant nightlife. Housed in a renovated building that used to be the head office of Bank of Liverpool, the hotel has retained its corporate feel and portrays this through clever placement of dark wooden furniture. While attracting the rich and famous, standard rates at the Sir Thomas Street hotel are surprisingly affordable. Rooms are well equipped to satisfy all the needs of the modern guest, including flat-screen TVs and Wi-Fi. There is also a bar and restaurant on site. Link
Liverpool University
Staying in purpose built university accommodation is perfect for anyone planning a trip to Liverpool. Vine Court has been designed to be eco-friendly. Room rates for a double room including breakfast are very reasonable. Vine Court, which forms part of the University of Liverpool city centre campus, is located within easy reach of the main railway station and ferries. Nearby attractions include cathedrals, the Tate Liverpool and Beatles-related landmarks.
Within the main tourist and business areas of Liverpool lie some of the best places to stay that the city has to offer. Quality accommodation is plentiful, with some of the best outlined above.

Yes definitely. WC T20 is played in Bangladesh before IPL7 season starts. So All the International players get used to the typical turning tracks in sub continent. So it is a very good thing for the franchises as most of the players who are going to represent their respective franchises are going to get some valuable experience playing in Bangladesh. In turn the performance is sure going to be a notch higher in these circumstances. It is not only going to be good for the franchises but also for IPL tournament as it is going to be entertaining from the beginning itself.

I'm not a fan of open world/sandboxy games. Too open and I get lost too easily. Like I got Skyrim (luckily for Xbox360, all I had to do was have my friend let me borrow is copy...didn't even have to buy it)...but 1 hour in I was so lost. There was the main quest, but once I was done with that...why didn't the game just end? And I was so overwhelmed with everything. I did like the races/lore. But, the games (even Morrowind and Oblivion)...not so much. Oblivion was better than Skyrim though for me, and Morrowind was my least favorite. That was even WAY more confusing than Skyrim. So with that said...from whats been revealed of Elder Scrolls Online...would this be more an MMO for me? Less overwhelming, and more a set path like WoW is? (WoW is my favorite MMO, very straight forward game). Thanks :) Isabella and Laenaya are on Photobucket! http://s4.photobucket.com/user/Vendayn/library/Skyrim/Anime%20Skyrim My (mostly) scenery screenshots of heavily modded Skyrim http://s4.photobucket.com/user/Vendayn/library/Skyrim/Anime%20Skyrim/Aesthetics |
ES is rubbish, this is an mmorpg. Yes you will like it.
I sometimes play under the alias "Exposed". Don't tell anybody. |
The world is bigger since its an mmorpg, its all those games lands put in one...but dont worry its the usual themepark type questing most likely so you will be hand helded through out the whole game through its quest. Or maybe western rpgs arent for you in general? Is this even a serious thread/post? cuz its kinda funny...
Originally posted by Sentnl If ES is rubbish why did they choose this IP to make an mmorpg out of instead of something else or just making one up? |

Originally posted by TheScavenger Well games like Skyrim can be as linear as you want them to be. Why anyone would only play the main storyline is beyond me but the point stands. I honestly doubt you would find interest in ESO and sticking to WoW clones may be better suited to your sensibilities since you are led down a path from character generation to level cap. My advice is to try it, if it suits you continue to play but by the blessed graces of the Nine, do not use your opinions of not liking the structure of the game to advocate for its failure as so many on these forums do. Just quit the game and chalk up to poor planning or not heeding my very gracious advice to not play in the first place. |
Originally posted by tkreep Why did EA/Bioware chose star wars? There's already an established market for the product. I sometimes play under the alias "Exposed". Don't tell anybody. |
to be honest, there is no way of telling all i really got about your post was that you where confused early in and lost, that dousnt tell me much about what kinda games you like. also since this game isnt out it will also b hard to tell you if you will like it till i have played it a bit, and most beta players cant really speak due to the NDA ( not sure if it in effect still or not ) my sugesstion is wait a month or more after it comes out to find out what other are saying and check out some U tube vids on it before you get it |
Originally posted by Sentnl And why is there a established market for both of those IPs...? Prolly cuz its not rubbish...so your saying Star Wars IP is rubbish too? I mean its your opinion of course but ya an opinion. |
Originally posted by Sentnl you sir are asking for a ahmmer fall. although there is a giant argument about ESO, most of those said people luv the ES IP. honestly if you think ES is rubbish i shudder to think what you think is a actual good game. whats more dont bother responding to this cause i wont be to you agian, since im half certain your a troll. |
Originally posted by tkreep I'll just pretend you aren't comparing the star wars franchise, to elder scrolls :) I sometimes play under the alias "Exposed". Don't tell anybody. |
Hm, interesting question. I'd say, if you don't like Elder Scrolls at all, you will only have to rely on the devs delivering a solid MMO experience. And I think they are going to do that. From what I heard you advance through zones appropriate for your level and within these zones you will find lots of quests, although not necessarily only in quest hubs but spread over the whole zone. I don't think that you will get lost as they will very likely have some sort of quest tracker for your main story line quest and also some rough indicators for other quests. In short: If you only care about a good MMO experience you will probably have some fun with this game :) |
Originally posted by Sentnl Star Wars is more popular and have much more background but how can you deny ES also has a significant amount of popularity among gamers and a well established lore? To call it rubbish is an insult to some of us. |
While I don't agree in the least that TES is "rubbish", I never really get very far into them because of the fact that I mainly enjoy MMOs nowadays due to the social aspect. Single player games don't grab me like they used to, no matter how great the lore is.. it's lonely and depressing. So in effect, you may enjoy TESO because there are other people to do things with. If you hate the lore or fantasy in general, you may not enjoy it. I've never played it, but after watching videos, I feel like I have. I still intend to give it a shot, but it doesn't seem to be doing anything new... another reason you might not like it, if you're into that sort of thing. |
Originally posted by tkreep That's fine and all, I enjoy some good lore, the dwemer myserty is great. I'm just saying ESO will be better than the single player ES games, even if only because it's an mmo. I sometimes play under the alias "Exposed". Don't tell anybody. |
How can you not like Skyrim? It has to be the Best RPG since FF7... The way mmo's were: Community, Exploration, Character Development, Conquest. The way mmo's are now : Cut-Scenes,Cut-Scenes, solo Questing, Cut-Scenes...
Well considering that TES is the second largest RPG franchise in the world, behind only Final Fantasy, I think you'll find yourself in the minority, frankly. That said, I think it will be different enough that you might enjoy it but if you were to tell us more about why you dislike TES (aside from, it's too open and gives me too many options, because ESO will probably feel the same way) then maybe people could give you some constructive feedback. Do you prefer a connect-the-dots or hub-based approach, or like a fully linear corridor experience? I think if WoW if your favorite MMO you will hate this. Unlike WoW you actually have to play this game and pay attention, you can't just macro your way through it while watching TV. It's also hilarious to me that you like Oblivion most, Skyrim second and Morrowind least, which is usually the exact opposite of what most people say. This makes me start smelling troll...hehehe. |
Originally posted by WellzyC Well that explains a lot. I thought FF7 was overrated. Well, the characters anyway.. |
Originally posted by Eir_S I prefer Skyrim to any Final Fantasy game really, FF7 was good for its time, but it really doesn't hold up like, say Morrowind does. |
Originally posted by Entinerint Yeah, I actually thought of Morrowind when I saw the "Best RPG since.." comment, but opinions are opinions. The best part about Morrowind is that it can be modded. FF7 will always be chunky. Remakes don't count. It's just the first game I can remember being disappointed in after having high hopes. Guess I bought the hype lol |
Originally posted by TheScavenger From the looks of things it seems like the races and lore will be the bulk of what TESO retains from the Elder Scrolls series. Many of the mechanics and design are more in line with other MMOs rather than to TES games. Think of it as a typical MMO with some newer features and mechanics with TES races and lore. If your a fan of MMOs in general you will likely enjoy TESO, if you are a TES fan (in my opinion) it is less likely that you will enjoy TESO. |

Contracts, Labor Supply and Income Targeting

Get AccessAbstract
In many professions and personal services, a firm offers a contract with either proportional revenue sharing of the worker's output or a contract with 100% revenue accruing to the worker in exchange for a fixed (debt) payment. Contingent on the contract, the worker chooses the mechanism to achieve the desired level of productivity. A higher revenue split induces the worker to be more productive in output per hour resulting in a higher wage. The relevant price of effort is the after-split, after-tax wage controlled for after-tax household income. Incentives through a higher split raise productivity and the return to effort. The sample is 1,559 U.S. real estate sales professionals paid on contract splits in 2007 and choosing their hours and effort. The compensated labor supply elasticity is positive and between approximately zero and 0.3 suggesting the absence of income targeting for these workers on split and 100% revenue contracts. But the inclusion of contractual income split provisions in the model substantially increases the labor supply elasticity.

He says militiamen are spending their time carrying out good deeds like giving blood and sweeping streets to endear themselves again to the masses. The name of the Mahdi Army has, in many areas, become associated with killings, kidnappings, and extortion.
During the freeze, he says, he continues to be in contact with members of his unit but has returned to his day job as a hotel receptionist in Najaf, where he awaits instructions from his commanders. "There is just bound to be another war as long as the occupation remains. Our main enemy is America."
The Mahdi Army's next phase
In recent weeks, Sadrists – many dressed in black and donning white cloaks to symbolize martyrdom – have marched in Baghdad and the south. The largest rally took place in Najaf on Nov. 15, when tens of thousands of militiamen were bused in from all over Iraq to commemorate the ninth anniversary of the killing of Ayatollah Muhammad Sadeq al-Sadr, their spiritual leader and Sadr's father.
They paraded through Najaf's Valley of Peace cemetery, which was the scene of some of the worst fighting between the militia and the US in 2004. Celebrants flashed victory signs and shouted anti-American slogans. Those attending received a CD showing footage of purported roadside bombings planted by the militia against US forces and militiamen in training.
Mothers of Mahdi Army fighters killed since 2004 wept in a special section of the cemetery reserved for them. Like the Hizbullah cemeteries in Lebanon, hundreds of tombstones were festooned with artificial flowers and billboards praising the heroics of the so-called martyrs.
As for Sadr's intent, his spokesman in Najaf, Salah al-Obeidi, says: "We have new visions for what the Mahdi Army will do in the next phase."
Mr. Obeidi explains that most Shiite parties have embraced the political process wholeheartedly and accept the presence of US forces, while the Sadrists, who continue to oppose it, need to keep their Army as a "national resistance force."

"Those responsible should take the brave decision and sign a letter [of resignation]. If they can't, we will help them," President Dmitry Medvedev said in a televised interview Monday, addressing the sports bureaucrats and Russian Olympic officials that most Russians deem to be guilty for the collapse of their once proud athletic machine.
But the poor showing of Russia's first fully post-Soviet generation of athletes in Vancouver, and the challenge of retraining them to win on their home turf in four years time, may be the least of the Kremlin's worries.
The still-powerful former President Vladimir Putin pulled out all the stops to win the 2014 Winter Games for Sochi, but preparation efforts have now become embroiled in allegations of corruption, poor planning, environmental disaster, and accusations that local authorities are suppressing media coverage of Olympic snags.
Sochi – no snow, lots of corruption
"It would be very hard to find a place in Russia that has no snow in the wintertime, but that's just what Putin did," says Boris Nemtsov, a former deputy prime minister, Sochi native and co-author of a critical report on the Olympic preparations around Sochi.

In my personal opinion, defensive revolvers should be DAO.
Many police agencies learned this lesson through the years, LAPD and Miami come to mind quite easily. I don't think NYPD or Chicago learned this lesson, but that's food for another meal.
The DAO Revolver came about due to civil and criminal liability concerns. That is something one needs to pay attention to when deciding upon what gun to carry, IMO. My hunting revolvers have the Hammer Spur and can be fired Single Action. The Double Action Revolvers are DAO.
If you say you need the Hammer Spur because you may have to make a long shot or some such and need greater accuracy, I contend that you should spend more time at the Range shooting in Double Action as you can be just as accurate in Double Action mode if you practice.

So they aren't illegal in "many" states - they are illegal in 2 and military bases. Most people here don't drive commercial vehicles and they sell mounts that sit on your dash instead of your windshield if you're in MN or CA.
Also, if you get pulled over take it off your windshield on your way over to the curb - it's really not that hard.
And, as another poster pointed out, radar detectors actually help decrease speeders and, if everyone had them, we wouldn't have to deal...

Ferrari blasts 'scot free' punishment
© Ferrari
21 June 2013 by Ryan Wood | M | Tweet
Ferrari's Horse Whisperer has blasted the International Tribunal for letting Mercedes get away 'virtually scot free', despite having been found guilty of breaching the regulations.
Mercedes were reprimanded and suspended from taking part in the Young Driver Test next month as punishment for their part in the 'private' tyre test.
In the column, written by a mystery Ferrari employee, the so-called Horse Whisperer compared the outcome to that of being 'rapped across the knuckles', adding the decision was 'perplexing'.
"Today we learned, that even if one is guilty and in this case that is an indisputable and verified fact, there is always a way of muddling through as best one can. One only has to suggest to the judge what the penalty should be and even better, why not make it something light like a rap across the knuckles.
"It is somewhat perplexing to say the least to see that the guilty party can get away virtually scot free for having derived 'an unfair sporting advantage.'
"Don't tell me that testing for three days on your own at the Catalunya circuit is the same as doing so with nine other teams at Silverstone with a host of young hopefuls at the wheel, in an area where the weather can still be changeable even in the height of summer. And what if this whole incident had taken place after the young driver test, what would have been the penalty then? Would they have been forbidden from holding an end of year dinner?"
Ferrari believe the sport needs to do more to tackle teams which flout the rules, alluding to recent decisions by the FIA in which the governing body found illegal parts on Red Bull's RB8 last year, but instead of punishing them, they were told to remove the offending items for the next event.
"The way things are going in Formula 1 at the moment is becoming boring: you make a mistake, you race with an illegal component, but then you are told to just change it for the next race and we've seen what we've seen…
"All this reminds the Whisperer that if he ever finds himself running a Formula 1 team in the near future and that he gets off to a difficult start to the season, then all it needs is to organise a nice week of testing at the right moment and then maybe have to skip a later session, by which time, everything could be done and dusted. What do you reckon?"
The column ended with a clarification on Ferrari's own Pirelli tyre test which took place earlier this season - but with a 2011 car.
"Oh, and to those who jabber on about transparency and credibility, the Whisperer would remind them that the rules are very clear: you cannot test with a car from the current year. With those that are at least two years old, you can run when you like, where you like, with any driver you like, dressed how you like, inviting who you like."
Red Bull's Christian Horner was a little more diplomatic in his response to the punishment [read story here].

Pa. 911 dispatchers prep for Batman-fueled calls
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Emergency dispatchers in Pittsburgh are preparing to take calls from residents who may be unprepared for fake gun shots, explosions and other mayhem while the Batman movie "The Dark Knight Rises" films at various city locations.
The movie has received mammoth publicity in the local media. But Allegheny County Deputy Emergency Management Director Raymond DeMichiei (dee-mih-SHAY') tells WTAE-TV (http://bit.ly/oumsu6) that some folks, no doubt, may be puzzled by some sights and sounds.
That's why DeMichiei is telling residents, "If you hear shots fired or a disturbance or gunfire ... call 911 and report it and we'll figure it out."
Traffic is expected to be affected, too, as some streets will be closed for filming and so crews can put down fake snow for some scenes.

Schumacher eyes return to form
Captain Steven Schumacher is confident Bury will end their recent slump and return to winning ways at home to Aldershot on Saturday.The Shakers have not won in five matches and put in a dismal display during last weekend's 1-0 defeat at Accrington.Midfielder Schumacher told the Bury Times: "We were poor at Accrington from the first whistle to the last."It is probably one of only two games this season (the other being the 3-0 defeat at Crewe) where we have not looked like getting something from it."But after that game at Crewe we got a good reaction and went on a nine-match unbeaten run. Let's hope that happens again."

Memorable Moments at Civic/Mellon Arena
So many good memories for me in this building, mostly from when I was a kid and going to games with my Dad. Out of all the incredible plays and all the goals scored, I think my favorite memory will always be how intense the fans were then and how, even during regular season games, there were times when you'd think the building was going to fall apart from all the shaking. Playoff games were just pure insanity.
I got through watching the final home game without any waterworks, but these vids just bring back so many memories. Miss all those good times with my Dad and other friends and family and can't wait to make new ones with my daughter in the new building.

Re: Memorable Moments at Civic/Mellon Arena
Very cool videos, thanks for sharing!
Re: Memorable Moments at Civic/Mellon Arena
Thanks for posting those vids SCM. I got all choked up watching them
I haven't lived in The Burgh for a while now (and it KILLS me...), but I used to get home every December and make it a point to go to as many games as possible-- Now I live in a place where people don't know the difference between a Blue Line and a Chorus Line! It KILLLLLLLS me... Mario, Jagr, Coffey, Trottier, Stevens, Tommy B, etc etc---I loved watching those guys Love how the first vid shows the changing of the "Old Guard" to the "New Guard". I haven't had the pleasure of watching Sid the Kid live yet...but I WILL I loved hearing Mike Lang do his thing, too...he was truly one of a kind--- It's a Hockey Night in Pittsburgh http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Mike_Lange |

Re: Memorable Moments at Civic/Mellon Arena
How got all chocked up on those videos great! Ill never forget my first game I was 6 years old now 13 years ago against the NJ Devils, the Pens lost 3 go 2, but I thank my grandfather for teaching me the Pittsburgh way and he taught me to love ALL of our sports team and please grandpa R.I.P. please and thank you.
Ill never forget all the games I saw over the past 13 years good and bad ill remember every moment and what made it so special to me. The fans, the building shaking in the playoffs, the new whiteout's and the building for giving us all of this for all this time. Ill never forget the Mellon Arena and the memories it brought to my life! |

Thank you Chief for sharing your background in photo journalism. I come from a long line of journalists myself. The women of the pioneers had a sense of history in what they were doing including the crossing of the plains on their way to Deseret (Salt Lake City) where many died. Their journals lived on and were continued until the wars broke them up.
They even started their own religion and realized they were considered breeders over being individuals. They wrote of their experiences without a camera. It's all there even their birth control methods and all kinds of healing salves taken from nature; all a gift from the Native Americans. The Temple shuns many of these journals so we know they must be true.
We love your articles about how you started out and we admire what you have done with your expderience.

Queensland's payroll inquiry is examining emails and meetings between Damon Atzeni, a member of the state's panel involved in the process, and an IBM contractor in the lead-up to the tender process in 2007.
The inquiry's first two weeks have focused on whether IBM had an unfair advantage in winning the contract.
In developments on Thursday, counsel assisting the inquiry, Peter Flanagan SC, accused Atzeni of favouring IBM in replacing the obsolete system.
"You were doing everything in your power to assist IBM to become the prime contractor because you knew that the first rollout of a human resource solution was to be Queensland Health. Yes?" Flanagan asked.
Atzeni denied he had been assisting IBM.
However, he said he wanted Queensland Health to be made a priority over other departments, because its computer systems needed to be urgently replaced.
Atzeni admitted to having "sporadic" coffee shop meetings with IBM contractor Jason Cameron, who worked within the government's IT agency CorpTech during 2007.
He said he could not recall what had been discussed, or whether any other senior IBM staff had been involved in those meetings.
He also denied giving IBM information that helped it win the contract.
Later that year, he was put on the government's evaluation panel to score submissions from four bidders, including IBM.
In December 2007, the government awarded IBM a contract to project manage and roll out a new system for Queensland Health.
It resulted in thousands of pay bungles, and continues to be plagued with problems.
The saga is expected to ultimately cost taxpayers AU$1.2 billion.

But relative to countries that have been overwheled with obesity issues, Russia and other countries in the region is a far different place. russian wife And the women carry themselves differnetly here. As with many things, it's all in the presentation. In general, young, attractive Russian girls do not go out in sweat pants, sweat shirts, without makeup, etc. You've never had any idea that women could wear such spiky high-heeled boots in ice in the Russian winter. Skirts in -30 degree (C or F take your pick)? No problem.We'll see how this changes over time. 10 years ago, it was extremely uncommon to see an overweight young Hungarian. Now you notice them quite frequently.Young Russian guys are notably thinner than in many western countries, but they generally don't care as much about presentation as Russian girls. Spoiled?russian wife And, sure, there are places even in America, the land of lard, where women care how they look and dress Miami, LA, NYC But there is absolutley no comparison to what you see here every single day here to what you see in general in the US. Or the UK I'm not sure where in Russia you were or for how long, or where you are that Russian girls are nothing special. If that's really true, please share the secret

I don't know why the call it "cupcake" it should be called "Chocolate covered banana"! This mask goes on smelling of rich chocolate, sweet enough you wanna eat it! And for some odd reason, when it's time to rinse off, it smells like banana instead!
I have combination/oily skin, this helps reduce oil without drying out my face completely. I love it because It gives me a more matte appearance, so I can wear my highlighters and MSF's without looking too shiny by the end of the day! If you have dry skin, I definitely recommend avoiding this.
It also helps clear up my occasional breakouts, better than my actual acne creams and masks! It's become my new favorite mask!
The masks are made of natural ingredients, and are not tested on animals. They come in a 2.1 oz jar, with a screw top lid. The jar is recyclable, and the store offers a program where you can return 5 of your empty jars in exchange for one full mask of your choice. Each mask cost's a little less than $7. You get about 5 uses from one jar. Each mask is typically good for about 2 weeks from it's packaged date. Each jar is labeled with a package date, and expiration date. These masks are to be kept refrigerated. Typical recommended use is 2-3 times a week. I do not recommend purchasing more than one mask at a time, as you will end up wasting product... It will expire before you can use them all up, unless you plan to use one jar everyday for a week.

This did absolutely nothing for my skin, which ranges from normal to oily. The smell though, is wonderful, but not anything else. It's strange because most other Lush fresh face masks work for me, but not this one. It's supposed to take away oil but it did not. Just left a nice chocolate-y smell, which I can get with edible chocolates. If you really want a Lush mask that would take away oil, Brazened Honey is much better, and super. Will definitely NOT be replacing Cupcake.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Acne-prone, Olive, Warm
Hair: Black, Straight, Medium
Eyes: Brown
My skin is oily/combination and very acne prone. I use this mask around 3x a week and one pot usually last me around 3 weeks before it expires. I live close to a lush store and I only get these right after they come in so I can get the most uses out of one pot.
This particular mask smells like chocolate. I love the smell and makes me sometimes want to try and see if it tastes as good as it smells. When I slather it on it feels cool from being in the fridge. When it starts to dry it pulls my skin tight. I believe this is an effect of the rhassoul mud. I love this feeling on my skin. When the mask is ready to be removed, I rub gently with water in little circle around my face using the little grains in the mask as an exfoliator. It works great for this and it's gentle. The mask has oils in it which leaves my skin soft and smooth. People always tell me my skin looks more radiant on days after using this mask. I highly recommend people to try it.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Very Oily, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
I love this mask. I am almost 30 but do have issues with acne. This really does help for me. I use it sometimes 3x a week doing a breakout and it helps take the acne down. It also feels very calming to my skin when it feels all hectic. I normally don't like chocolate scented things, but this smell is amazing of this mask!
Age: 25-29
Skin: Acne-prone, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Hazel
I have sensitive, acne-prone combination skin. I've used this face mask about 3-4 times so far this year.
This face mask is designed to be used up to two times weekly maximum. If you use it more than that, you're just asking for trouble! The gals at Lush warned me of this when I bought it.
This feels great, seems to be deep cleaning, minimizes pores, and leaves my skin feeling silky smooth. Sometimes I break out in 1-2 pimples afterward, but I assume that's the mask doing its job as a deep cleanser; it's pulling out any gunk under the surface. I just dab some Grease Lightning on those pimples, and they're gone in a blink.
My biggest problem? I'll buy a pot of this for $6, use it one time, put it in the fridge, and then completely forget it's in there. So, I always end up wasting/throwing out the rest of it like 3 weeks later. This product is more of a "luxury" item for me and not a necessity for my skincare.
Did you know that Lush sells these at cost? They don't make a profit on them at all -- or at least that's what I've been told by the sales reps.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Oily, Fair, Cool
Hair: Red, Wavy, Fine
Eyes: Hazel
Okay, I have to be honest. I have no idea if this does anything super amazing for my skin, other than lightly exfoliating it and just making it feel comfortable. I don't suffer from too much acne, and though my skin is oily, I do not really expect a $7 mask to change that. But, this is such a treat to use, it smells so lovely! It doesn't irritate my skin, or break it out... It just makes it feel cool, and delicious. Great for pampering yourself while you're relaxing in a bath.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Warm
Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Medium
Eyes: Blue
I tried this product as the sales assistant recommended it was brilliant for acne prone skin. I had recently had a break out and was desperate to try anything to get rid of it. This mask smells amazing and goes on really nicely, and it feels lovely on your skin.
For the first few days I used it it actually did clear up my spots and reduced redness, however after about 4 applications my skin broke out horrifically. I have never had acne as bad in my life, and it was so bad I was almost embarrassed to go out! I've stopped using this mask and my skin has cleared up straight away. Definitely will not be using this product again, which is a shame because I love Lush and I love the smell!!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Acne-prone, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
This is BY FAR, the best face mask I have ever tried! LUSH has really outdone themselves with Cupcake, it is simply the best one! I have very blemish prone skin with lots of scarring from old acne. This mask does not irritate or aggravate my skin in anyway. It calms my small little breakouts with easy and IT SMELLS DIVINE. A lot like minty- chocolate mixed with vanilla. I will be repurchasing THE DAY I finish the pot I am currently using!
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Acne-prone, Fair-Medium, Not Sure

This is my 3rd time using this product. Having acne prone skin i think its safe to say this product is the best thing ever ! It has dried all my blemishes, and my skin always feels super soft after using... and not to mention the amazing smell!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Other, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Medium
Eyes: Hazel
This stuff smells amazing, I almost wanted to eat it! But sadly it's the worst product ever used on my skin... :( I wanted it so badly to give me at least that "glow", but nothing...
I have mixed skin, with acne problems, especially before periods. I've got this thing as a sample in a store, so I can try it out, before buying it. Thanks God! Cause when I firstly used it, my skin was a little bit softier, but the very next day it was full of breakouts and my skin really didn't like it... I've tried so many face masks and never, really never, got so much breakouts after using it just once!
This made me doubt in other masks, but I think I'll give them a try, just need to left some time pass by...

In the coming weeks if you happen to notice an unusual decline to your CTR, it might be down to a new display URL policy.
AdWords recently announced on their blog that they were going to change the display URLs so that the domain portion is all in lowercase.
For example, if we were using the following as the display URL:
Before: www.SoftwarePromotions.com/AdWords
After: www.softwarepromotions.com/AdWords
You do not need to go back and edit your ads, they say they this will be automatic when the ads are served.
For those who have domain names which do not need capitalization, I suspect it will not be an issue. For example, www.google.com. However those who need to highlight the actual name of their domain through capitalization will most probably take a hit to their AdWords performance.
Thanks Google.

Former Arsenal coach Don Howe can't see Bolton Wanderers striker Nicolas Anelka being capable of playing alongside Didier Drogba for Chelsea.
In a column for the Daily Telegraph, Howe wrote: "I watched him from a distance during his Arsenal days, when I would take youngsters from our academy to witness his extraordinary shooting powers.
"I know a lot of people say he's moody, and there are those who say his main stimulant is money. However, should he start banging in the goals for Chelsea, I am sure he would be worth every penny in the short term, at least. But if not, then forget it.
"Anelka's arrival would be bad news for Andrei Shevchenko, but it would also represent a major challenge for manager Avram Grant when Drogba is up and running again. I couldn't imagine Drogba and Anelka playing together, because they are too similar. They are excellent footballers, but they are at their best as lone soldiers.
"Nevertheless, I can see why Grant would go for him, with Chelsea's resources set to be stretched to the limit by injuries and the forthcoming African Cup of Nations."

I've spent all week at 35,000 feet (thank heaven for GoGo Inflight!) so I'm very grateful it's Friday and I'll be home in my own bed tonight.
PLUS, my high school bud, Mike Koehler (aka MK), is going to be at my house when I get home AND Michael Schechter (aka Shrek) is coming over for my homemade lasagna on Sunday night.
So I'm very much looking forward to the weekend and hanging out with my boys.
And, to start the weekend off right, I give you Gin and Topics. Perhaps you can even follow Shashi Bellamkonda's lead and pour yourself a gin and topic while you watch and read.

Jack Bauer once got the fridge open and ate some raw chicken and a pound of butter, but he hasn't figured out how to do it again. Clearly this cat is smarter.
4. Creative Kids Photography. This is FANTASTIC! A dad has taken some really fun, and creative, shots of his girls doing some crazy things, such as this one of losing a tooth. Super, super good!
3. The World's Biggest Dog. This is pretty freaking amazing. This dog is HUGE! Giant George has taken over his human's home. He needs a king-sized bed for himself! But he's so handsome. Go see for yourself.
2. 12 Ways to Get the Best Glamour Shot. Ken Mueller posted this on my Facebook wall last night. It includes tips such as hold on to your collar, wear silk gloves, and play up your hands. You're welcome.
1. The Lost Steve Jobs Tapes. And, to end the day, a serious (but fascinating) topic. Fast Company writer, Brent Schendler covered Jobs from 1985 through last year, but says he didn't come to fully appreciate the importance of the years between the two Apple legacies until after his death last fall. He has some three dozen tapes holding recordings of extended interviews–some lasting as long as three hours–that he conducted with Jobs during the past 25 years.

I hate cats. Feh. If I want to be ignored, ridiculed and tolerated I can ask my daughter to talk to me. ;)
Jack Bauer is smarter than you know. He figured out how to get in the fridge without you knowing cuz dogs are clever like that.

I'm glad my one cat is too dumb to try something like this and the other is too skittish to have the time to make it happen.

This weekend is gonna be crazy. Stretch that tummy and liver out. And wait, that glamour shot looks like something straight outa 1991.
@TheJackB Privately I think dog owners are weird for needing slavish love. Oops was that my out loud voice?
@Anthony_Rodriguez That's too bad. You could create a viral video if they were smart and not skittish!
@M_Koehler I especially love that I call at 4:00 and you guys are already drinking.
@ginidietrich He sees what you and Mr. D eats and figures he deserves the same.

@jennwhinnem Nah, it is not slavish love. It is just consistent, always happy to see you, no greater friend in the world kind of love. Dogs just love you because you are you and cats just hate you because they are cats.
Some people are masochists and others are just kind, friendly and loving. ;)

@ginidietrich I am actually quite content with this fact. I don't want a fridge-opening viral video. I could actually envision the cats eating all the food and barfing all over my house. What a mess.
@jennwhinnem Our cat has gotten into a cabinet where we keep the treats, but hasn't been successful in eating anything. This just raises the bar. The dog, on the other hand, will eat anything he finds anywhere.

I assume you didn't fall in to any of the traps I indicated in previous replies, so I'm now out of ideas for why your builds don't do the same thing as mine. In particular, I couldn't find *any* way to *not* build the docs when I looked at the configure options yeasterday. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce
