How am I the only one that sees incognito smashing his hand in between Antonio's facemask 2-3 times. Everyone wants to act as though Antonio did this unprovoked. But its right in front of you. Incognito always playing the victim lol. Getting old. I'd take a swing too if someone was jabbing at my face like that with the added history. On like donkey Kong. And god lord you dolphin fans are soft. Been three days and all y'all are doing is crying and protecting a known instigator. Lol. We are tired of tearing you team up anyways. Y'all are soft give us some competition.
Texans DE Antonio Smith could be in big trouble after escalation of feud with Dolphins OG Richie Incognito
The history between Houston Texans defensive end Antonio Smith and Miami Dolphins guard Richie Incognito is not pleasant at all, and after what happened in the Texans' 24-17 preseason victory Saturday, it could become a lot more unpleasant for Smith.
On Fox Sports One's "Fox Football Daily" show, NFL analyst Jay Glazer showed exclusive video of Smith reacting to a borderline block from Incognito by ripping off Ingocnito's helmet and taking a swing at him. In Week 1 of the 2012 season, the Texans and Dolphins faced off, and Smith was fined $21,000 for kicking Incognito. The fine was reduced to $11,000 on appeal, and Smith claimed he kicked Incognito to stop him from twisting his ankle.
"I talked to Richie about this today," Glazer said on the show. "He said, 'Luckily, I saw it coming and ducked down, and he got me in the shoulder instead of the face. But had he gotten me in the face, he could have killed me.' So, he's outraged. Antonio Smith was outraged last year when he was on the bottom of the pile and Richie was twisting his ankle around."
Mike Pereira, the FOX rules analyst and former NFL VP of Officiating, compared this to an incident that took place between then-Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth and Dallas Cowboys center Andre Gurode on Oct. 1, 2006. Haynesworth ripped off Gurode's helmet at the end of a play in the third quarter and stomped on Gurode's head, causing an injury that required 30 stitches to repair. Haynesworth was ejected from the game and received a five-game suspension from the league.
"They look at it as a non-football act," Pereira said. "This pulling off of the helmet and actually taking a swing — they'll be more aggressive with their discipline."
No penalty was called on Saturday's helmet swing.
Pereira also pointed out that in 2011, Smith was fined $7,500 for pulling off Gurode's helmet in a game between the Texans and the Baltimore Ravens. The most recent Smith incident also brings to mind a play in a Thanksgiving Day game in 2011 between the Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers. In that game, Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh pushed Packers guard Evan Dietrich-Smith's head into the turf and stomped on his arm. Suh was suspended two games for that move.
Funny I keep reading that Incognito's a dirty player and Smith was provoked.
But I don't see Incognito swinging a helmet.
Maybe the next time JJ Watt provokes a lineman HMMMMM.
Did anyone watch the video? Incognito punched Smith in the face TWICE, before Smith ripped off his helmet and swung it at him. You think Smith's head naturally snaps back like that all on it's own? It is clear what instigated him. Incognito is the same guy that tried to break Smith's ankle last year.
Where did all these racists come from? This has nothing to do with race. You guys are idiots.
This was very serious and in the NCAA or really anywhere, you'd get tossed for a season. At least 4 games. I heard they were considering 2 preseason games. What a joke.
It's hard to see on the computer screen but . . . this pulling off the helmet stuff has to be dealt with and using it as a weapon is something else.
that has to be at least 4 game suspension and a 150 k fine. If he connects to the head of Richie then you would have a guy getting hit with a felony assault charge. These black athletes continue to attack white guys with intent to serious injure. I see it in the NBA all the time
no place for that anywhere ? funny hypocritical fans. mma ? boxing ? humans being humans
Incognito is the dirtiest player in the nfl. I wish he had taken his head off with the helmet.
He needs a 5 game suspension at the very least. I'm a Dolphins fan, so I'm biased, but he should be done for the year.
Suspend him indefinitely. These are very large men...if he would have connected with that swing he could have permanently injured Incognito. No place for that anywhere.
Wow did he really touch his face mask ? Obviously u have never played football stuff like holding and hands to the face happen on a regular basis During a game ! That does not give a guy permission to try and hit a player with a helmet . If this happened on the street he would be arrested for assault ! By the way it sounds to me like your the one pouting like a baby so shut up and be glad he didn't connect and get banned from the NFL for life dumbass!!!!!!!
I seem to recall the Texans D getting its butt handed to it repeatedly in last season's second-half.
Anyway, for sure Incognito provoked him. He provokes everyone. Always has.
But ineffectually swatting at someone's face-mask obviously isn't the same as ripping off another player's helmet and attempting to use it as a weapon against him. Smith's reaction was extreme and grossly out of proportion, and he rightly has to pay the consequences for that. He's very fortunate to only be missing 1 regular season game. It's a light punishment for what he did, to be sure.
@randomdeletion Doesn't matter. Incognito is well established (for years now) as dirty, but what Smith did here is nonetheless on a whole different level. He removed a player's protective equipment, and then deliberately tried to club him with it.
Smith is gonna burn for this, and rightly so. Incognito has played dirty against hundreds of players throughout the years, but only Smith has ever gone psycho like this in response. There's no excuse.
@darkgoody Yeah the racist remarks are an indicator that the one posting it is a complete idiot.
@JosephBagadoughnutz Where in MMA or boxing do they use a weapon to take a swing at an unsuspecting opponent?
Sounds good. Should kick incognito out of the league indefinitely for a altercation a year that he provokes. I'd rather defend someone defending themselves than a instigator that denies and involvement.
@leehwgoc Oh, please. Get off your high horse. Incognito caused Antonio's head to snap back TWICE. That had more of a chance of causing injury than being hit in the head with a PLASTIC helmet. You act like it is made of steel. It is freaking plastic. He wouldn't even get a knot on his head had Antonio made contact. Brian Cushing head butted a teammate when his helmet was off. On the crown of the helmet. It caused a minor cut, but not even a knot. It did no real damage of any kind.
I guess you would be so terrified you would want attempted murder charges brought against someone if they attacked you with a plastic hammer. I mean sure they could kill you.... eventually... after a few hundred blows or so... unless your head is made of marshmallow.
@leehwgoc @randomdeletion Maybe someone should have been clubbing him sooner to get dirty players out of the league.
@randomdeletion @GaryGuillermo Not for lack of trying, you fantastic idiot. Is your comment for real?
Well incognito pulled a ankle lock last season where does a ground he come into the context of football. Much less the ancient eye gouge. Pot calling the kettle black. Take a hike.
@tedjefferies What are you talking about? I never said Incognito was an innocent victim - just responding to the statement that that kind of stuff happens all the time in MMA and boxing. Let me guess - English wasn't your best subject in school?

ALEXANDRIA, La. (KNOE 8 News/AP) - Rapides Parish deputies say the sister of a Pineville man who eluded authorities for more than two years now is facing charges that she tried to pressure victims into changing their stories.
37-year-old Jennifer Colleen Gordey Davis was arrested Saturday and booked with accessory after the fact, obstruction of justice and criminal conspiracy. She was released after posting a $30,000 bond.
The case involves her brother, Jeffrey Neil Gibson, who fled Pineville in 2010 after detectives began investigating complaints that he had been involved in inappropriate relationships with juveniles. Warrants on three counts of indecent behavior with juveniles, three counts of sexual battery and six counts of felony carnal knowledge were issued for Gibson.
It was unclear whether Davis has an attorney.

PikeView senior Kevin Cottle rounds out the pitching staff. Cottle, whose team came up one game short of a state tournament spot, had a 9-2 record with a 2.39 ERA and 86 strikeouts entering the Class AA Region 3 championship game.
Strand has a pair of teammates on the first team in senior infielder Fletcher DeVaul and senior utility player Matt Robbins. DeVaul was the starting shortstop for the Polar Bears, batting .511 with 26 RBIs, eight doubles and only four strikeouts.
Robbins played every position in his four seasons, according to coach Steve Naternicola. He batted .391 as a senior with 39 runs, 21 RBIs and 17 stolen bases. As a pitcher, he was 5-2 with 65 strikeouts, 12 walks and a 1.79 ERA in 43 innings. Robbins was a first-team pick as a Class AAA utility player in 2012.
Joining DeVaul in the infield are Independence's Wyatt Adkins and Drew D'Angelo. Adkins batted .386 with 10 doubles with 40 runs and 30 RBIs and combined with D'Angelo for 19 double plays this season. D'Angelo batted .524 with 20 doubles and 54 runs.
Robert C. Byrd's Colton Bonnett, a second-team utility player as a sophomore in 2012 when his team was Class AAA, earned first-team Class AA honors in the infield this season. Bonnett batted .467 with 22 RBIs and 32 stolen bases as a shortstop.
Fairmont Senior's Robbins was one of four utility players on the 15-member first team. Others chosen for utility spots were Oak Glen junior Vincent Haddox, Ritchie County senior D.J. Burgess and Bridgeport senior Troy Anderson.
Haddox had a 5-4 record with a 2.02 ERA and 84 strikeouts in 652/3 innings. He batted .526 with 31 RBIs and four home runs.
Burgess batted .471 with three home runs and 41 RBIs. He also had a 5-3 record and two saves with a 1.83 ERA. He pitched 46 innings and struck out 40 batters.
Anderson batted .355 with 47 RBIs and 10 doubles for the Class AA semifinalist Indians. He started at pitcher in the state tournament semifinal against Fairmont Senior.
The first-team catcher is Wyoming East's Zack Whitten. A member of East's 2012 Class AA state title team, he batted .544 as a senior with 35 RBIs and 26 stolen bases.

Hi there i would act on all information, as i feel terrorism is not only based on bombings. a lot of the acts of propaganda is brain washing about religion, the way the west live their lives and do not worship the way they do, we are classed as infidels, and should be killed unless we live our lives the way they see fit. so not 100% based on war it all started over religion xx
And what if that person being water boarded was your child and they were innocent with no information? The more terror we use the more people will fight back - we have taken so much from them, i.e. their children murdered in-front of them, come on thats going to drive anyone to violence!
what ever the rights and wrongs,we have to get info to protect our own,pick a side mathew or maybe you already have,we have to rely on our secret sevices,dont you see that.
Waterboarding - if your child was being held captive and the only way to find out where before they are killed - would you be against waterboarding?
Mathew, I have to comment about this much debated link between crime and drugs, and the govts insistence that by tackling drugs and community punishments, money will be saved by not having to send people to prison. As a serving prison officer, i can confirm that many people i lock up have drugs problems, but, having the benefit of having chatted to many of them, i can also state that for many of them they started taking drugs, after they began offending!and that greed and poverty continue to be the main cause of aquisitive crime. Oh yes and on the subject of public sector pay as a prison officer of 15 years service i am on the top tier of pay earning 28936 per year. Many people would not even wish to hear what i have to do to earn that.

Lightwindow not working properly in IE!
10 January 2009 at 2:55pm
I am not sure if this has been posted before, so I will ask anyways.
Lightwindow works fine in Firefox, but has problems in IE. When browsing through the images some open fine and others open small and narrow and the image will be really tiny, Kind of weird. It is not every image. Am I missing something that will halp this work properly in IE?
Thank you,
Re: Lightwindow not working properly in IE!
13 January 2009 at 4:46am
Is there anyone who has a solution to this? I really need to get this issue solved. Thank you
Re: Lightwindow not working properly in IE!
31 January 2009 at 9:59pm
I cant give you an answer sorry - but I can tell you the pattern. The first time you load any image it seems to fail to get the image size in-time so the window opens up the wrong size
The second time you open an image (any image already in your browsers cache) It works correctly because it already knows the image size from last time.
Ive tried updating to latest daily builds for flicker and YouTube galleries but this or something I did has stopped my light windows working at all.

I'm experiencing this as well. I receive an error message that reads:
Line: 1597
Char: 9
Error: Invalid argument
Code: 0Unfortunately I do not understand the code enough to know how to fix this.
Re: Lightwindow not working properly in IE!
3 March 2009 at 12:05pm
I had the same problem, and after doing some research found this:
http://www.trilodge.de/blog/2007/11/04/lightwindow-ie-fix/The page is in german (looks like), it tells you to replace a line in the lightwindow.js file
This part of the code:
height: '100%'
});With this one:
height: '100%', width: '100%'
});It says its in line 1231, but I found it in line 1244. After making that change started working for me on IE. Hope it helps

Thanks guillearg! This fix worked like a charm!!
Re: Lightwindow not working properly in IE!
31 August 2009 at 1:18am
I am having the same problems with IE (7.0) and Lightbox as described over. Guilleard's fix doesn't work here. I'm running SS 2.3.2 and Flickrservice 0.3-module.
Any one have a clue?

The People Speak also showcases John Legend reading the words of Muhammad Ali, Kerry Washington as Sojourner Truth, David Strathairn's take on the soaring oratory of Eugene Debs, and Morgan Freeman as Frederick Douglass asking, "What is the 4th of July to the American Slave?" There are also the words of women factory workers read by Marisa Tomei, rebellious farmers personified by Viggo Mortensen, and escaped slaves voiced by Benjamin Bratt.
Certainly the lunatic right will howl to the heavens after seeing "liberal Hollywood" perform the words of labor radicals, anti-racists, feminists, and socialists. In fact, aided by the craven Matt Drudge, they are already in full froth, campaigning online to get the History Channel to drop The People Speak before its air-date. If it weren't so contemptible, their actions would be almost quaint, like a virtual book burning.
But beneath the bombast, their hostile aversion "a people's history" speaks volumes about why we need to support this project. This is a country dedicated to historical amnesia. Our radical past holds dangers for both those in power and those threatened by progressive change. We need to rescue the great battles for social justice from becoming either co-opted or simply erased from the history books. Our children don't learn about the people who made the Civil Rights movement. Instead we get Dr. Martin Luther King on a McDonald's commemorative cup. Because of our country's organized ignorance, endless hours are wasted in every generation reinventing the wheel and relearning lessons already taught.
One reason Barack Obama made so many of us feel "hopey" during the 2008 election season is that he seemed to understand and even take inspiration from our "people's history". Candidate Obama would invoke the odysseys of abolitionists, suffragettes, freedom riders, and Stonewall rioters. He linked his campaign to this history with a slogan from today's immigrant rights and union struggles: Si Se Puede, Yes We Can.
And yet this Presidency in practice has been like watching George W. Bush with a working cerebellum. Send 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan? Say nothing in the face of racist rallies held outside the capitol? Tell LGBT people to shut up and wait for their civil rights? All in a year's work. The Obama administration is now counting upon the American people, to once again, quietly go with the flow all while pretending we never saw this movie before. This is why The People Speak matters. It's aimed at reclaiming our hallowed history from all who would profane it: to resurrect our past as a guide to fight for the future.
There are those who will wrongly see The People Speak as a kind of "spoonful of sugar" approach to education. Get a celebrity to recite the words of Susan B. Anthony and all of a sudden, we'll all want to be history buffs. But this isn't Hollywood "slumming" in the land of radical chic. It is instead a bracing spectacle where our sacred history is reimagined by performance artists of tremendous craft. Consider the dramatic task at hand: they are attempting nothing less than turning politics into art. If Zinn and co-producers Arnove, Damon, Josh Brolin and Chris Moore pull this off, it holds the potential to introduce a new generation to Sojourner Truth, Eugene Debs, and perhaps most importantly of all, to the works of Howard Zinn.
As Zinn himself once said, "Knowing history is less about understanding the past than changing the future." This is the grand adventure of Howard Zinn's life. I encourage everyone to come along for the ride. Get your friends and family together on Sunday night and experience the People Speak. Then take them by the hand and pledge to be heard.

Parent involvement
I graduated from this high school in 2009. Several of my friends have siblings currently attending. It seems to have remained about the same as when I went there. It is considered a top school in the Las Vegas valley. It's got a good variety of after school activities, sports, spirit days, and academics. Students were very nice to everyone. Very few bullies. I can think of two fights in four years. One involved a flip flop flying across the courtyard. The other a bit nastier, but nothing crazy. Doors that were supposed to be locked, always were. Very safe school. Lots of AP courses, no IB. Academics were generally pretty strong at Coronado. I can think of quite a few people who went to schools such as NYU, Brown, Northwestern, Yale, and UC Berkeley. But it's also really easy to slip through Coronado in basic classes. This is a rich school, but everyone was really chill about it. Some activities have a few Cali/Arizona trips. About $1000/year for 6 or 7 trips? I think some sports got it for free. Band & Colorguard didn't. Debate didn't. Oh... the football team was terrible... I'm pretty sure it is still terrible. Overall a very, very good school.
I have a Freshman daughter that attended Coronado High school, I was disappointed with the inability or possibilities for parent involvement.
I honestly cannot give this school more than 3 stars because I have no idea what goes on at this school. Since moving to Nevada I have never felt connected to either Bob Miller or Coronado High School. That doesn't mean they aren't good schools just that there isn't much opportunity for parent involvement and there aren't any parent conferences unless you have a problem child. I just felt like I was the one who always had to send emails to my daughters teachers because they made very little effort to get to know her or me. I felt like she was just a number; a face lost in the overcrowded school.
High Marks for this school. Every aspect is outstanding, not perfect, but outstanding. Wish there were more schools like Coronado.
We are newly relocated to the area and have nothing but great things to say. We started communicating in February and completed the move at the end of the school year. The administration did a wonderful job in welcoming us to the area and showing us the great stuff they do. As we were completeing our move, they had tryouts and placements going on for next year. Not only did they ensure that the kids got into the tryouts but one of them had his equipment packed away. No problem, substitute equipment was provided. We have high hopes for the school and look forward to being involved with the community.
Every young girl wants to be a cheerleader.. unfortunately even if your child is a highly skilled dancer and has trained for many years, but you don't know the coaches or the politics or start sucking up early.. don't even try to get on this high schools below average squad. Your daughter will only be hurt and depressed after learning her fate. Oh and don't let her be anything but white, that's a Definate waste of time to even think about trying.. great way to build enthusiasm to incoming freshman
Honestly, Coronado High School needs to step up. They need to do something about their bullying problem because it hasn't changed. I'm not going to use any names, but I am the sister of a student who is being bullied. There have been many reports and complaints over the months about this issue and the school hasn't bothered to do anything about it. My mother went to the school to find out that the reason the school hasn't done anything about the issue is because they thought it stopped. If you don't stay informed with the students and people involved in bullying, how can you know that it really stopped? They always try to do something after its already too late and someone has been hurt. Coronado High School is not on my good list right now and I will continue to send in complaints for the sake of their students.
If you're new to the area, CCSD is one of the worst school districts in the country. Having said that, Coronado is the "BEST of the worst" overall. They stress high achievement in all areas. They have some really wonderful teachers who do their best to help their students succeed. Warning, though! They have an AWFUL math program. If your child wishes to advance and seeks a degree or profession in/related to the mathematics arena - stay away from this school. The local middle school teachers warn their 8th grade students who will be attending Coronado about the terrible math program and which Coronado teachers to avoid at all costs. It's a shame because the school is really great and the principal seems to take pride in his school. I just wish he would take more pride in the math program and recruit some top-notch teachers so that us parents - some with award winning and math honor students - wouldn't have to pay a math tutor to teach our children what they should be learning in the classroom at Coronado.
I moved to this area because I heard it was safe and was a newer school, so I thought it was a wise choice to send my son here his freshman year. I have to say I am dissapointed with the faculty and counslers. My sons struggled in his english & math classes and when I contacted the counsler and set up a meeting with his teachers, the first part of the meeting was the counsler grilling him if he was on drugs. Then the teachers said he didn't fool around in class, that basically he was just a wallflower and they never really even noticed him in class. He was there, they marked him present. How about some encouragement and trying to get him involved? They told me I should be monitoring his work on Parent Link. I was. They don't update it until days later after they moved on
Coronado Staff does a great job. The AP program is top-notch. Students from Coronado get into top tier universities year after year---with scholarships.
My daughter is in her sophomore year at Coronado High School this year (2008-2009). I have been pleased with the overall education she has received. Within every school in America there are great teachers, good teachers and mediocre teachers, and Coronado is no exception. Mrs. Larsen, Mrs. Huffman, Mr. Moyes are raved about by my daughter. Mrs. Larsen teaches English and Creative Writing, Mrs. Huffman is the Forensics (Debate/Speech) Advisor, and Mr. Moyes brings History to life. I am grateful for these outstanding educators. The Principal is warm and friendly, the Office staff is knowledgable and the environment is safe. If I had one complaint it is that the school is in too fluent an area. Some students and parents would benefit with a reality check.
In this school there is too much stress. Teachers talk to you like if you don't get an A in their class then you will not get into college. The teachers don't know how to teach. They give you a new thing and expect you to do it. Then the next 5 minutes they give you a test. I do believe that this is a good school, however, the teachers schould be crrected.
We love CHS! My son is a sophmore and not very outgoing, but loves the school. He takes forensics (debate) and plays lacrosse. He takes the honors and AP classes and likes the instructors very much. Have not heard of any significant problems, not a clique school. Great all around HS. Thank you to the faculty and staff for a great job.
Coronado is the best school in the valley for education and saftey. It is located in a wealthy part of the valley and there is no gang violence and hardly and fights at that school. The asthetic programs at that school are far below Silverado and Green Valley's but that is the only bad mark.
I graduated from Coronado in 2005 and my little brother (zoned for G.V. originally) started there this year. It is definitely one of the top with great programs, teachers, and environment. the Valley and I would recommend it to anyone.
This school was great. My daughter transferred here from a private school in the valley and did wonderful. The teachers were great faculty and especially the sports program. The volleyball program and the coach really helped my daughter with many aspects she still uses in real life today.
Coronado High School is the best high school in Las Vegas. They have awesome academic programs, extracurricular activities, and teachers and faculty that always want to help. All of the departments are way above par when it comes to your childs education. No child is left behind and if a child falls behind the teachers will spend the extra time after school, before school, or even during their lunch to help if the child just asks. All in all Coronado High School is where your child will get the best education, oppurtunites, and help for the future.

Campus Services personnel provide custodial services and clean all areas except student rooms. Requests for repairs or replacement of room furnishings can be made by completing a work order
Laundry Facilities
Washers and dryers are available free of charge in each residence hall and apartment. Repair telephone numbers are available on the machines.
Residents must supply their own telephones. Public telephones are available in each residence hall. Abuse of telephones may lead to the removal of telephone service by the University.

Collect and Third Party Billed Calls
These calls are normally handled by an operator and must be accepted by the person of record on the phone line. Since the students are sharing phone lines and room changes are common, all collect and third party billed calls are blocked. It is possible that these calls may get through depending on the operator service company completing the call. If this happens, you should not accept the charges. If you accept the charges, the Telecommunications Office will split the cost of the call along with a $10 service charge between the students registered in the room. This charge will appear on your student account.

Hey guys I have Flash CS3 and I just started working with flash. I was just wondering if there's and easy way to make a rotating banner ad? If you check out this site http://www.activerideshop.com/ they have one on there front page. I want to make one really similiar to that and I was just wondering if something like that is hard to make. If anyone has and ideas or suggestion I would really appreciate it thanks.
Welcome to the forum.
When you say rotating I think of angles. I assume you are speaking of the ads that slide from right to left pushing the other ads out of the way.
I know nothing of CS3. I'm stuck with Flash 8 Actionscript 2. You do not need actionscript for this. If it has a timeline here's what you can do.
Set your stage size for a new flash file and set the frame rate to 15 fps.
On any layer, import your first graphic onto the stage. Convert it to a symbol (ie. movieclip). Make it the size you want it.
Decide how many seconds you want the graphic to display. Myltiply it by 15 (ie. (3 seconds) * (15 frames per second) = 45 frames).
On the same layer that your new movieclip is on go to the frame you calculated and select that frame and push the F6 key. This will create a new key frame.
Determine how long you want the transition from one pix to the other. I'll use 1/2 sec or 15 frames. On the same layer as before select the frame that is 15 frames past the last one we created. Select key F6 again. This creates another key frame.
In this last keyframe left click on the graphic. Hold down the shift key and press the left arrow on the keyboard. Move the graphic until it is just off of the stage.Left mouse clich on the layer between the last two keyframes and right mouse click. There should be an option that says create motion tween. Left mouse click on that. An ar row should appear between these keyframes.
Now we'll do the same thing for the next graphic:
Insert a new layer. Its the little folder at the bottom of the tool bar.
On this new layer select the keyframe just below that of the original graphic just as it began to move.
Into this key frame import your next graphic. Convert it to a movieclip as you did before. Align it so that it is to the side of the first graphic.
Select the keyframe just below the one where the original(first) graphic stopped it's motion. Select the F6 key. Move the graphic to the centered position. Set the motion tween as you did before.
Now run the program.
You'll have to fix the beginning of the first graphic but this will have two graphics constantly replacing each other.
hope this helps,
You're welcome.
The above ad will continue to transition between the graphics you choose.
If you want to stop the graphic when you click on it, you will have to add actionscript and a button/movieclip that is either visible or invisible.
Check out the attached. It is written in Flash 8 Actionscript 2 even though the code is as1.
Rename bannerAd.txt to bannerAd.fla and see if it gives you any ideas.
Hi there,
I would probably make two arrays. One with the images and one with the links. Like that whenever you select an image you can select the link thats comes with it.You can also make an multidimensional array but I prefer two seperate arrays.
_root.urls = ["http://www.google.com","http://www.grafia.fr","etc"];
_root.images = ["google.jpg","grafia.jpg","etc"];
Guido Braak
In my previous post I included a file with links. My computer says the file is still being quequed.
I'll try again. Change the .txt to .fla.
Hope this helps.
it's not that hard for cs3.
check out the example on http://www.stixrideshop.com/ if you are lost. i hope it helps.
Thanks you guys. I also want to make a rotating banner on my website http://www.whatsappoppc.net but im a total flash noob.
But i think i will figure it out with this information
If you dont see me here again i have not failed ;)

The Paonia Lions Club and the Paonia High School seniors recently got together to complete a community service project requested by the former Paonia Teen Center coordinator, Ellen Smith, before she passed away.
Over three days, 12 volunteers put in over 70 man hours and donated over $250 in supplies, in order to sand, repaint, and replace as needed, the seats of the visitor side bleachers located at Paonia Town Park.
Although the Lions Club donated the food, Ellen Smith's "right hand" team of Mary Blake, Rene Atchley and Sue Rhoades prepared meals the first two nights, so the crews could eat and keep working.
Appropriately, the Lions finished putting the bleachers back together the morning before Ellen's Memorial Service in the park on June 6.
The Paonia Teen Center has been renamed in Ellen's honor, The Ellen Hansen Smith Center.

After a clear-headed diagnosis, Nawaz Sharif back to square one: 4 member peace talks committee. Most sympathetic to 'our own people'.

A few more details are now known about the single-vehicle wreck that claimed the life of a four-year old girl on the Bypass last night.
The Hopkinsville Police report says the crash happened about 6:05 near Martin Luther King Elementary School when 29-year old Amber Coleman of Velma Drive lost control of her vehicle on the icy bridge and struck the guardrail, causing her SUV to flip.
Her daughter, 4-year old Brooklyn Coleman, was not in a booster seat and was pronounced dead on the scene by Christian County Coroner Doris Lamb. Amber Coleman went to Jennie Stuart for leg injuries and another passenger—29-year old Brian Baker of Shelbyville, Kentucky; did not go to the hospital despite complaining of some minor injuries.
The report says Baker and Amber Coleman were wearing their seat belt.

This is a very tasty dish. The lemon sparkles in your mouth, the vegetables provide perfect crunch, and the bulgur is super healthy. Perfect alone or as a side. I made it with lemon roasted chicken. Yummy!!!!!

"Spyware ruined my computer"
Version: iBackupBot 4.1.6
Nothing, totally junk
Cnet is cheating, this comes with lots of malicious spyware, adware and other junk that is impossible to remove, it change your homepage, slowdown your PC to crawl
Cnet is a place where spyware are spreaded
"Restore iPhone Keybaord Shortcut to any device."
Version: iBackupBot 4.0
All-In-One software you must need to have.
The last version 4.1.+ can remove junk files left by jailbreak.
And restore your own modified files like plist or SQLite
Check my website: http://userdictionary.wordpress.com/
You can transfer User Dictionary (aka. Keyboard Shortcuts) to any iDevice.Cons
You need to know basic database programming.
iBackupBot is so easy to use. -
"Brilliant backup and recovering lost settings/passcodes"
Version: iBackupBot 4.0
Some of your other reviewers seem to be using a different product or a very old version. I used it to recover (or rather reset) a lost restriction passcode.
You can open any plist file and edit, the write the corrected file to the backup. The real bonus is that you can restore just that file, without anything else. Normally Apple say that you have to do a factory reset and then sync all your apps and data which takes forever and is completely unnecessary.
Even better iBackupbot allows you to duplicate the backup first thus protecting against messing up the corrections.
I had a problem with files not writing back to the backup in version 4.1.0 of iBackupbot. After a couple of emails to support they had a corrected version (4.1.1)up on the web site within a couple of hours. That is what I call service.Cons
The help files are a bit sparse
"useless unless you want to write all data from a to b"
Version: iBackupBot 3.6.5
you are able to see and read your files like notes and contacts
first of all, I installed the trial version, could not find that nal ware program on my pc
1. no copy past possible
2. I experienced with export from backup extract, it goes into file formats, that can't be imported by outlook. xle but the fields are on the wrong place, db file instead of dbase
3. restore backup to phone, I got error 20, thats probably because my Iphone IOS was upgradedSummary
I couldn't find, how a registered version would work, and I wont pay for something, that might end up as useless at that program
"No malware. Suspicious malware claim."
Version: iBackupBot 3.6.4
Hmm. Derrick's only review is this one.
I wrote the developer:
Hi, Shane.
According to a review iBackupBot "put a program called snap.do on computer, changed home pages"
Is this true?

Please download iBackupBot from our web site:
Don't download from cnet.com, they may bind their own installer on other softwares.
Kind Regards,
It was a pain to verify that the software was legit.
It works. It's legit. No bundled malware.
"Works, but bundled with malware"
Version: iBackupBot 3.6.4
It works, but i was unable to do what i wanted with it
it put a program called snap.do on computer, changed home pages
see above
"This is malware"
Version: iBackupBot 1.2
None none at all
This is malware
it will install incredibar and change all browser homepages and search engines.
"Deceptive. Misleading."
Version: iBackupBot 3.6.3
Really none, since you don't get a chance to "trail" it unless you pay for it.
You don't find out until you waste your time downloading and installing the product that you have to pay for it to work AT ALL.
Product is unusable unless you purchase. "Free" and "trial" are misleading, and really shouldn't be allowed by C Net, which most people know to be a trustworthy site.
"Easy and good"
Version: iBackupBot 3.0.12
It's easy to use program with simply interface
A little bit slow
"useful program"
Version: iBackupBot 3.0.10
It is useful progam to help me backup my ipad
It is slower than iTunes

How To: Craftsman Cordless Inflator Dials In PSI To Presta Tires With Minimal Conversion
Pin It |
Last week, we listed our favorite gadgets that every home mechanic should have on hand for the season. Today, we decided to bring back the 'how-to' element by reminding folks that some basic tools can be repurposed as perfect-for-the-pit gadgets.
by Chris Mayhew
If you've paid close attention to footage of Stu Thorne, or you're geeky enough to even know who he is, you've probably seen the Craftsman Cordless Inflator (he uses one quite a bit in the Behind the Barriers videos). It looks like a drill, but it's actually a portable air compressor that fits in your hand. Not only that, but it has a digital gauge that reads to .1 PSI (or BAR, if you're crazy Euro). Airing up one set of tires is not bad with a floor pump, but if you have multiple wheels and play with pressure a lot (as you should), it gets tedious. Plus, floor pumps only read out in 10 PSI increments, so dialing in 23 versus 25 PSI is more or less a matter of guessing.
The Craftsman Inflator is stocked with a Schraeder head. Most mechanics just remove the hose and use a Silca hose and head. That's certainly handy and "pro," but perhaps not as handy as it could be. The Park pump head and hose will fit in the Inflator with almost no modifications and gives you both valve options. The Park heads wear out fairly quickly, but it took two years of being the community pump at cyclocross practice for mine to do so. And on the flip side, I've inflated quite a few car tires from 15 to 32 PSI, something that would make a floor pump too hot to touch. Just ask me how I know!
Hopefully, the picture tutorial below makes it clear how to make the conversion. If not, please feel free to drop me a line at [email protected].
Here's a link to the product: Craftsman 19.2 volt cordless Inflator (Tool only, no battery)

It was hard to find with the seasonal products put away. last minute looking on line and there it was. Son-in-law loves it. [...] discounted priceI will shop again. Cann't really evaluate product but shopping [...] was the best.
Good but not perfect...

It came with a big dent in the metal leg that didn't allow it to pop-up that well. I returned it after I realized it had a defect. It might of been a nice tent if that hadn't been the case.
Will do for the season
By Clare
from Fort Wayne, Indiana
I ordered this product to get me through the summer during the craft market season. I probably won't be using it next year, the frame is already starting to bend and the handles on the bag have already unraveled. The pins that hold the tent in place were very poorly made and since the first use, we have had to use our keys to pop them back into place.I would not suggest this product for any weekly use ( I only used it a total of three of three times!) but it might be something a family would find useful for picnic use.

[JURIST] Sir Ian Blair [official profile] resigned Thursday from his position as Commissioner of London's Metropolitan Police Service ("Met") [official website], effective December 1, 2008. Blair cited a strained relationship with the newly-elected mayor of London, Boris Johnson [official profile], and the mayor's decision for new leadership at the Met as the leading factors in his decision to resign. In a letter [text, PDF] UK Home Secretary Jacqui Smith [official profile] thanked Blair for his leadership through the July 7, 2005 London transit bombings [JURIST news archive]. In a corresponding letter [text, PDF] to Johnson, Smith indicated that the search for Blair's replacement would begin immediately. In a prepared statement [text], Blair said:
I am resigning in the best interests of the people of London and the Metropolitan Police Service. I would have wished to continue to serve Londoners until my term of office expired in February 2010. However, at a meeting yesterday, the new Mayor made clear, in a very pleasant but determined way, that he wished there to be a change of leadership at the Met. I understand that to serve effectively the commissioner must have the confidence of both the mayor and the home secretary. Without the mayor's backing, I do not consider that I can continue in the job. Personally I see no bar to working effectively with the new mayor, but it is there that we differ and hence I am unable to continue. The home secretary has asked that I should stay for enough time for the process of appointing my successor to be got under way. I will therefore leave office on December 1, 2008, giving the home secretary and Metropolitan Police Authority time to make plans for the appointment of my successor. I offer Boris Johnson and his team at City Hall and at the Police Authority the very best of fortune.

Once You Go Black...
Sorry for the delay on darkening up the site. The vibe we got from you guys was that having to click a button was too annoying and most of you would rather the site just default to black. As such, we decided to just scrap the white altogether. And if we were going to only have a black site, we wanted to at least do it right (hence the delay). Anyways, you guys can go ahead and take off your sunglasses now and take a look around. If the page looks funny, just hit refresh a couple of times. And if that doesn't fix it, upgrade your browser.

ESPN Gameday just mentioned it, and it was also on the ticker tape at the bottom of the screen.
They also said last week that Denard was back and starting, so I wouldn't trust the scroller on ESPN.
UMichFootball tweeted Devin was starting and that Denard would dress and go through warmups, but did not specify if he'd be available. He did dress last week, but they said he ended up being "out" after warmups.

My friend Marnie, 36, recently had the classic online date-turned-one night stand, which ended—how else?—disappointingly. "I had taken a break from online dating," she told me, "but I was ready to start again. I received a message from a guy who wrote: 'Hey, I am not giving up. You haven't emailed me back, but I'd like to have coffee or a drink with you.'"
So, she decided to give it a try and sent him a note. He was quick to respond, writing: "I know it sounds like a line, but you have an AMAZING smile, the kind that I would love to bask in."
She figured that with such compliments and persistence the guy definitely deserved a date. "I've never had anyone just interested in hooking up or at least I never knew it!" explained Marnie, a divorcee who lives in the Mission.
They decided to meet for drinks in her neighborhood. Throughout the evening, the guy said and did all the right things. "Everything was easy. He had Champagne with me, asked me what we should do next, totally took charge without being overbearing, He didn't act like he knew all about wine, was happy for the bartender to suggest things and was very friendly to the waiter."
He ended up driving Marnie home; she figured they'd kiss and that would be that. Well, one thing led to another and—surprise, surprise—he spent the night. And—surprise, surprise again—he never called her back.
courtesy of Jaymast
Marnie is the perfect case in point for a recent study by The University of Texas School of Public Health that found one-third of all first Internet dates ends in sex. (I'm not even going to talk about the disturbing lack of safe sex practice, but it does bolster the following.) Researchers found that women gain a false sense of intimacy when meeting and emailing with someone online. In these situations, their usual guard is down, and they tend to project what they want in a man onto a man who may have none of those traits.
Needless to say, to my gal pals, if you're going to sleep with an online hookup on the very first date, you're probably better off just treating it like a one night stand. I know, I know. You don't do one night stands … Still, something to keep in mind.

A Common Name's LA Street Art
Over the past couple of months A Common Name, a.k.a. Julian Paige Smith, has been working on a street art project around Los Angeles. As a freelance artist and graphic designer one would expect her to be creating 2D installations – instead she has been aweing unexpected Los Angelino's and visitors alike with her unexpected 3D treasures.
The project consists of amazingly intricate paper formations that bring the magic of real geodes, crystal, quartz, and other mineral formations normally found in nature, into everyday life within the bustling city of Los Angeles. The point of the project is not for everyone to notice these treasures (and many will not) and for them to be affected by the weather and other elements so they do not last forever.
Since the beginning of the project A Common Name has made 12 sculptures, some of which have since disappeared, but all of which can be found integrated throughout the city into the holes of buildings and pipes, taking the mundane and making it "sparkle." This Memorial Weekend is the perfect time to get outside and enjoy a relaxing long weekend and you can be sure that we will be going on our own scavenger hunt to find the remaining sculptures.
If you want to also experience these fun and unique pieces, follow the map below and set out on the hunt for A Common Name's "Geode" Street Art Project.

Better Botanicals Eye Therapy Apricot -- 0.5 fl oz
Favorite eye cream
This is the best eye cream that I have found (and I have tried quite a few). I have very sensitive skin and have had reactions to many facial creams. This cream feels very soothing, glides on easily and smooths the wrinkles and dry skin around my eyes beautifully. It also has a nice light scent which is very important to me as I can't use products that have strong or unnatural scents. I highly recommend this product ...plus it's a great deal at VitaCost.
July 25, 2013
Great eye cream!
I was looking to try something new & different for eye puffiness. This is a nice smooth cream that "slides" across the skin. It has a slight tingle at first but no burning sensation at all. Will buy again as it seems to be a powerful help for me.
October 3, 2012
Great as concealer base!
This is my absolute favorite eye cream to use under concealer. It really helps it go on smoothly and look natural, whereas other eye creams will be too thick or sticky and make my concealer look heavy. I do like to use something a little more rich at night though (but sometimes just layer argan oil under it for that).

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Amanda Anderson's daughter, a Kanawha County student, was first bullied when she was in the sixth grade.
"Things have gotten pretty bad. She has no self-esteem. She becomes withdrawn. Her grades dropped. She would cry and say, 'Mom, I just can't take it anymore,' " Anderson said. "That's when you feel helpless as a parent. This is my daughter. I love her with my whole heart. What else can I do to love her and protect her? That's my job.
"I knew that I must not be the only parent who is going through this," she said.
She was right.
Anderson started spreading the word to other parents, and now a group of families from Kanawha, Clay and Roane counties meet once a month to try to tackle bullying in area schools.
The parent-based group, called "Voices Against Bullying," addresses the issues their children are facing, reaches out to school counselors, and is currently raising money to send affected students to a special summer camp.
"I found more and more parents who were dealing with bullying and didn't know what to do or where to turn," she said. "We share our stories. Whatever you hear in this room stays in this room."
While Anderson says that Kanawha County School officials have taken the time to listen to her story, the problems are still there, and her daughter, now an eighth-grader, is still bullied at school.
"I've cried, I've prayed, I've reached out to the school and the board of education. Everyone is nice with me, but it doesn't mean that the bullying has stopped. They can only do so much. That's why we need stiffer penalties for kids who are bullies," she said. "This group wasn't formed to be against the school system -- it's to help them and work together."
