The capital of Canada is Ottawa, in the province of Ontario. There are offically ten provinces and three territories in Canada, which is the second largest country in the world in terms of land area.
While politically and legally an independant nation, the titular head of state for Canada is still Queen Elizabeth.
On the east end of Canada, you have Montreal as the bastion of activity. Montreal is famous for two things, VICE magazine and the Montreal Jazz Festival. One is the bible of hipster life (disposable, of course) and the other is a world-famous event that draws more than two million people every summer. Quebec is a French speaking province that has almost seceded from Canada on several occasions, by the way..
When you think of Canada, you think of . . . snow, right?
But not on the West Coast. In Vancouver, it rains. And you'll find more of the population speaking Mandarin than French (but also Punjabi, Tagalog, Korean, Farsi, German, and much more).
Like the other big cities in Canada, Vancouver is vividly multicultural and Vancouverites are very, very serious about their coffee.
Your standard Vancouverite can be found attired head-to-toe in Lululemon gear, mainlining Cafe Artigiano Americanos (spot the irony for ten points).
But here's a Vancouver secret only the coolest kids know: the best sandwiches in the city aren't found downtown. Actually, they're hidden in Edgemont Village at the foot of Grouse Mountain on the North Shore.
"It's actually worth coming to Canada for these sandwiches alone." -- Michelle Superle, Vancouver

Madison Theatre
32-34 Park Street,
1 person favorited this theater
Built and opened in 1930 for Warner Bros. Theatres, the Madison Theatre was one of John Eberson's early Art Deco theatres (this one in a Zigzag style).
Recent comments (view all 10 comments)
An Eberson/art deco closed? Someone to the rescue!
Yes, any further information on this theatre would be greatly apprciated!
I just visited the Mansfield Ohio website and wrote an email to the Mayor of that city. Hopefully I will receive an answer concerning the Madison in the near future.
Thank you for your e mail. Unfortunately the Madison Theatre has been gone for many years. It was in the city of Mansfield and was called the Madison Theatre and was next door to the Soldiers and Sailors Museum, now called the Memorial Museum. Where it stood is now a small park. I remember it well and it is sad that it was torn down before people in this city realized the benefit of restoring these beautiful buildings. We are fortunate to have the Ohio Theatre which has been restored and houses our Renaissance Theatre and our Mansfield Symphony Orchestra. Hope this information is helpful. Lydia Reid
Mansfield Ohio and Butler PA have something in common…they both demolished an Eberson art deco theatre!
The predecessor to the Madison was called the Opera House and then the Madison until a fire in 1929:
Another costly fire that oldtimers remember destroyed the old Opera House, or Madison Theater, at Park Avenue West and Walnut Street on February 10, 1929. Two men lost their lives in that disaster when they were crushed following the collapse of the west wall of the theater.
The Opera House, later named the Madison, was the city's leading theater for many years. The entrance was off Park Avenue West next to the Baptist Church which stood on the site of the Farmers Bank. Soon after the rubble of the theater fire was cleared away, the Madison Theater we know today was built on the site.
The theater must have reopened briefly after closing in 1975 because I saw "Twentieth Century" there in the winter of 1979. I think some of the local folks were trying to save it from the wrecking ball. They showed old films and cartoons. The theater was still in good shape – just a bit dusty. I remember the long staircase that lead to the balcony, the cavernous auditorium and the art deco lighting fixtures.
The Madison (along with the Ohio Theatre) both closed in 1980. An attempt was made to restore the Madison but it failed. Attention was then turned to the Ohio which was renovated as the Renaissance Theatre. According to Marquee vol. 20:2, the Madison opened in 1931.
Scott Schaut's book "Historic Mansfield" says that the Madison Theatre was demolished in 1986.
The book also mentions a Majestic Theatre, located on Walnut Street, which was in operation by 1925, and says that the first permanent movie theaters in Mansfield, opened in 1908, were the Orpheum, the Arris, and the Alvin.
According to Peter Beames' Wurlitzer Opus List on the TheatreOrgans dot com website,
The Madison Theatre in Mansfield had a
Wurlitzer style B X theatre pipe organ, opus 1822
(2 manuals, 4 ranks, two chambers) installed circa 1928 or 1929 (shipped from the Wurlitzer factory on December 23, 1927).
Given what kencmcintyre has written about the "Old Opera House" or "Madison Theatre" going up in smoke in February of 1929, could this organ have been destroyed in the fire? Did the later Madison Theatre have an organ, or not? (I wouldn't think so, given that opened in 1930, by which time sound movies were underway). Does anybody know for sure what happened to this organ? Thanks!

Arrow, which opened at Cameron Village in December, is opening a second location in the former Capitol Barber Shop spot in downtown Raleigh.
Co-owner Pete Phipps said the new Arrow will have a vintage feel, one that matches the walls and mirrors that have been a part of Capitol Barber.
Its going to be another Arrow location, Phipps said. But we will most definitely honor the barbering tradition and history at that location.
Both Arrows will offer the same services, including mens, womens and childrens haircuts, hot shaves and shampoos. Prices will also be the same, ranging from $3 for shampoos to $15 for buzz cuts to $36 for long haircuts.
Phipps will have the same free beer and snacks that have helped him develop a popular and relaxing place at Cameron Village.
(With the) service, quality haircuts and complimentary beer, people are really finding it to be a great alternative to what they were experiencing before, Phipps said.
Arrow is expected to open by mid-June at 115 E. Hargett St., by Landmark Tavern.
Chef Daniel Benjamin plans to open a pâtisserie named lucettegrace in downtown Raleigh in late spring.
Owner Benjamin said the place will serve sweet and savory classic pastries that have been revamped for today, along with breakfast and lunch.
The restaurant will frequently change its selections that will include croissants, danishes, cookies, brownies, tea cakes, tarts, eclairs and biscuits with cheese and herbs.
I am looking at really focusing on each item and making it the best it can be, Benjamin said. (Customers) will be able to come in and get a cookie, but its not going to be a place where there is going to be a dozen different varieties.
The breakfast menu will have homemade cereals with yogurt or milk and crustless quiche on a toasted croissant. Lunch will include salads, miso mushroom tart and one type of sandwich, such as a baguette with smoked paprika butter, local rosemary ham and melted pepper olive spread.
Benjamin will serve coffee and espresso from Raleighs Larrys Beans, sodas from Brood Soda in Durham, drinks made with fresh fruit, hot chocolate and sweet tea inspired by the different cities hes worked. Lucettegrace will also sell prepackaged sweets such as marshmallow caramels and candied nuts.
Our goal is when you eat here, you feel good about what you ate, Benjamin said. Youll feel full, but not over full.
Prices will range from about $2 to about $9, with special-order cakes costing more.
The 2,000-square-foot lucettegrace will seat about 36 people.
Benjamin hopes to eventually add evening events and classes but wants to get the shop running smoothly before taking on additional ventures.
To start, it will just be the restaurant, Benjamin said. We want to do everything we can do to make everyones experience inside as perfect as possible.
Lucettegrace will be at 235 S. Salisbury St., in the former CrossFit Invoke spot next to Capital Club 16.

Bundle Up and Lighten Up
We bundled up against the damp gray chill as Waits cranked the throttle. He'd already told us we wouldn't have to run far; the Isle of Palms Marina sits very near the prime fishing grounds, making a run of more than 10 or 15 minutes rare. And he'd advised us that, lacking a few frosty nights before our trip, we'd have to work for our fish.
Time of day matters less than tide, says Waits, who likes to focus on the ebb tide and first part of the flood. Low tide exposes dark mud bottoms to the warming sun, when it's out.
The wind and overcast limited us to lots of blind casting until Waits could locate reds. While blind casting can produce action, the less active reds don't produce wakes as much as in warmer weather, so he really hopes to spot concentrated schools.
"In warmer months, fish are not in schools and are scattered; plus, the water is murky," Waits says, "so most of the time you're casting to pushing fish or mud boils versus watching them eat your lure and peel off with it."
Waits lightens up all around for this cold-weather fishery, preferring 8- to 10-pound braid (he uses Fireline) or mono tied with a Bimini double line directly to 15-pound fluorocarbon using a Bristol (aka Yucatan) knot. "That's pretty much my winter rig," Waits says, "but if it gets muddy, I'll rig the same thing under a popping cork such as a Cajun Thunder or Paradise Extreme popper. The popping noise really helps reds locate Gulp!s in muddy or deep water."
Also, long rods and light lines facilitate distance when casting, and that can be a good thing. Winter reds can be spookier than Casper. Plus, growing interest in this fishery has meant more boats casting to redfish schools in recent years.
But, Waits says, even more than anglers, bottlenose dolphins make the reds skittish. The warm-blooded mammals "are just as fast in winter as they are in summer, but the [cold-blooded] redfish are much slower, making for easy meals."
Although the scent of Gulp! makes those soft baits particularly effective in chilly water, that's no reason to leave topwater plugs or fly tackle at home. "On calm, clear days, topwater plugs such as Zara Spooks can be deadly," Waits acknowledges. "But your cast has to land far from the school; then you must work it slowly in front of the fish." Other good bets: Johnson weedless spoons in gold or black - especially when tipped with a Gulp! tail.
Fly-rodders may enjoy lots of shots per day with water clear and fish in large schools. Keep in mind that winter fish "are more in survival mode than feeding mode, so you may show your fly to many fish before one decides to eat." Waits has had his best success on lightweight Clouser minnows in earthy colors.
Hungry Redfish
Even when winter waters clear, creating optimal fishing conditions, skies must clear as well. The combination of wind and leaden skies producing a dull surface glare gave Waits fits trying to spot anything from the poling platform.
But lo and behold, around midmorning, the veil lifted. Not for long, but for maybe a glorious hour that day, the heavens turned partly blue, and we got some sun.
That proved enough for Waits to start seeing our quarry.
"There!" he said.
Dark shapes became discernible off the starboard bow. We managed to get three Gulp! baits near the reds without spooking them, and keeping Waits' admonitions in mind, we generally resisted the urge to start working the baits, which Waits had rigged on Gamakatsu weighted Superline EWG hooks. Once we'd reeled them into "the zone," we barely moved them.
And just as the guide had said, the reds found them with little trouble. Before you could say Bob's your uncle, we had a triple going.
We landed two of three and, after a quick photo session, hurried to re-rig, hungry for more of that action. We did get a bit more, but after the skies closed again and the wind picked up, the best we could really expect was pick-'n'-scratch fishing the rest of the day.
But we'd gotten a good taste of how much fun Charleston's winter-redfish sight-casting action can be.

I'm not going to pretend like I have any idea as to what is going on in this one. The Zips lead UMass 7-6 at halftime, despite fumbling the ball on their first three possessions.
Jawon Chisholm fumbled twice, ending Akron's first two drives of the game. One of those fumbles led to a Minutemen field goal to give UMass an early 3-0 lead. He hasn't seen the field much since the second fumble. Kyle Pohl fumbled on the third drive, before responding with a 10-yard rushing touchdown to cap off a five play drive.
UMass has been hanging in with Akron, but has been unable to take full advantage of Akron's mistakes. The Minutemen tacked on another field goal in the second quarter to put the score where it currently sits at halftime.
The teams are about even on the stat sheet, with UMass holding a 187-to-185 total yardage advantage. But the real surprise has been UMass' success on the ground. The team racked up 116 yards on 22 carries in the first half, thanks in large part to a 45-yard run by Shaquille Harris. The Minutemen have nearly double the rushing yards of the Zips, which is unlikely to change if Chisholm doesn't return to the game.
Kyle Pohl, once again, is Akron's entire offense, and is playing fairly better (by just a smidgen) than AJ. Doyle. Pohl is 10-of-19 for 125 yards and no picks compared to Doyle's 12-of-20 for 71yards and a pick.
Akron is a seven-point favorite in this game, but could very well wind up losing to UMass two years in a row if Doyle can find some success moving the ball downfield and the team keeps pounding the ball up the middle.

PES Alpha-T2 (Physique Enhancing Science) Targeted Fat Destroyer!
Physique Enhancing Science is proud to announce the release of their first product, ALPHA-T2 (aT2).
With new fat burners coming to the supplement market just about every week, PES set out to develop a product that was better than the rest. We weren't interested in making a product with 8 ingredients and unknown dosages with names you can't even pronounce. We weren't trying to bring something entirely novel to the market that has to prove itself. Instead we took three POWERFUL and well researched ingredients and combined them at the perfect doses. Synergy at its finest
PES Alpha-T2 (Physique Enhancing Science) is the only supplement you need to burn fat. Whether you are trying to lose 100lbs, 20lbs, or in the middle of a lean bulk, ALPHA-T2 belongs in your supplement regimen.
Ever wonder how some people can eat and eat and eat and never gain a pound? You always hear the same ol' "they just have a fast metabolism", and you ask yourself why you were stuck with the slowest metabolism on earth!
Well quit worrying, there is a solution!
Metabolism is basically the rate at which food is digested, absorbed, and used in your body. It is the main determinant of your natural physique. By increasing metabolism you can shift your body to break down fat for energy as its primary source as well as utilizing your protein and carbohydrates for building lean muscle.
Normally, carbohydrates and protein are broken down for energy before fat. By shifting your metabolism, more fat is broken down and less protein, which means MORE protein for building muscle!
How do we do all this? With an ingredient known as 3,3-T2 (3,3-diiodo-l-thryonine).
Strictly changing your diet and increasing your cardio can help you lose weight, but it also will cause you to lose muscle mass. You will still have your same slow metabolism; you will just be throwing your body into overdrive to try to drop the weight. But that weight consists of A LOT of muscle. BAD! Thankfully with 3,3-T2 you can now increase your metabolism just by taking it as a supplement! This will allow you to lose more fat and lose less muscle when you combine it with diet and exercise.
3,3-T2 is a naturally occurring iodo-thryonine that will kick your thyroid gland into action! You may have heard of people with an under active thyroid suffering from weight gain. Well the opposite is true as well. People with an active thyroid often do not have trouble with weight gain. 3,3-T2 will optimize your thyroid activity to help you LOSE WEIGHT, and best off all, it doesn't negatively affect your TSH the way other thyroid hormones will.
Beware of supplements containing 3,5 diiodo-l-thryonine; this hormone has been shown to significantly suppress your natural TSH function, which is BAD! All the benefits you need are in 3,3-T2. 3,3-T2 stimulates the enzyme cytochrome c oxidase, an important enzyme in the Electron Transport Chain of cellular respiration. By doing this it will uncouple proteins.
What benefit is that?
Uncoupling these proteins does exactly what you're looking to do when you're trying to lose weight. It breaks down and burns fatty acids to be used as energy! Also, 3,3-T2 acts to counteract lipid accumulation, reducing cholesterol level, and increase lipid metabolism without cardiotoxic effects! The positive effects of 3,3-T2 are endless! Kick your metabolism into gear and increase your fat burning capabilities!
Well that's one ingredient down let's keep the ball rolling
Alpha-T2 has the ability to actually TARGET fat burning. That's right! How do we do this? By using an ingredient called Rauwolscine HCl, which is an Alpha-2 receptor antagonist (Alpha-2-receptor blocker). Why do we want to block this receptor in the body? Normally, when this evil receptor is active (which it's going to be, unless you're taking alpha-T2), it actually blocks your body's natural ability to break down and burn fat! By not allowing your body to burn fat, you're going to STORE more fat. By blocking the alpha-2-receptor, your body is now INCREASING fat burning, and DECREASING fat storage.
Don't worry; I didn't forget to tell you how this TARGETS fat loss in the areas YOU are holding weight. Alpha-2 receptors are abundant in certain areas of the body; it is in those areas that the receptors are active, causing you to store fat and inhibiting fat burning. These areas include the abdomen, the "love handles", the chest (don't worry ladies, not the breasts), lower back, buttocks, and neck. So by taking alpha-T2, you are TARGETING FAT LOSS in these areas!
This powerful Alpha-2 receptor inhibitor, Rauwolscine HCl, is chemically related to yohimbine, a very common fat loss ingredient, but it is FAR SUPERIOR to regular yohimbine. Both Rauwolscine and yohimbine are very powerful Alpha-2 receptor antagonists, as well as beta adrenergic receptor agonists. Now here is the catch; yohimbine also activates Alpha-1 receptors, which can block the breakdown of fats! POINTLESS! Yohimbine is a thing of the past!
Yohimbine also can vastly increase heart rate and anxiety, but Rauwolscine will not! In fact, Rauwolscine is a 5-HT1A receptor agonist, which can LOWER blood pressure and DECREASE heart rate. These two reasons alone are why some people are weary of taking fat burners. Increasing your blood pressure and heart rate can be dangerous. So the fact that Rauwolscine will not have these effects is VERY attractive. Users will also notice an increase in libido and a decrease an appetite!
Last, and certainly not least, let me introduce Methyl-Synephrine. You make have heard of synephrine being sold in other supplements with the idea that it is the best ephedrine replacement. This is a LIE. Regular synephrine is CRAP. It is useless. You burn as much fat taking regular synephrine as you do reading this right now!
Methyl-synephrine on the other hand is AMAZING. I wouldn't say it is a second hand replacement to ephedrine, I would say that it's BETTER.
Ephedrine gives you jitters, anxiety, increased blood pressure, and increased heart rate. None of this is actually what you are looking for when burning fat; those are just the SIDE EFFECTS. With methyl-synephrine, you get NONE of these side effects.
So what's the difference? Although they are structurally similar, ephedrine acts on the beta-2-adrenergic receptor, where-as methyl-synephrine works on the beta-3-adrenergic receptor. The beta-2 receptor is primarily used in cardiac control. Both the beta-2 and beta-3 receptors are used by the sympathetic nervous system to activate the breakdown of fat stores for energy and increasing your resting metabolism.
So get all the benefits of beta-adrenergic fat loss, without the side effects! Now you have it. Three perfectly dosed, perfectly combined, extremely synergetic ingredients designed to make you
BURN FAT by INCREASING your metabolism, and TARGETING the areas you hold fat!
P.S. We know that some people do have their favorite stimulating fat burner and are hard pressed to let go, so we are not telling you to do so. One of the great things about aT2 is that even though it is an iconic fat destroyer on its own, it is designed to be stackable with your favorite stimulant or cortisol blocker.

Solaxx REG10A Eko Klor Solar Ionizer for Swimming Pools
Short Description
EKO KLOR solar ionizer is a water purifier combining the energy generated by the sun with ionizing copper and silver for powerful sanitizing.
Alternative Sanitizer Features:
EKO KLOR solar ionizer is a water purifier combining the electrical energy generated by the sun with ionization. Micro-organisms such as algae and bacteria can not survive. The Eko Klor unit utilizes a small photovoitaic panel to supply electricity to two electrodes. These electrodes then produce a combination of copper and other ions which prevent the growth of microorganisms. The device floats in the pool and works when exposed to sunlight. The Eko Klor device begins producing ions immediately after being placed in a pool when exposed to sunlight, and will produce ion levels sufficient for pool purification within two weeks (depending on pool volume) provided insolation levels are sufficient. The Eko Klor device eliminate algae reduces chlorine demand. The Eko Klor will also reduces calcium hardness levels and water hardness levels by precipitating these metals onto the coil electrode.

Director Andrew James talks about STREET FIGHTING MAN and pitches the film for Kickstarter.
Please connect with us:
Kickstarter: tinyurl.com/streetfightingman
Official Website: streetfightingmanthemovie.com
Facebook Page: facebook.com/documentarymovie
Twitter: twitter.com/StrtFightingMan
STREET FIGHTING MAN is a feature-length, narrative documentary that follows three inner-city men - each a generation apart - as they seek to define their lives in post-industrial Detroit. Deris Solomon is a young single father who wants to leave behind a high-risk life on the streets, Luke Williams is a middle-aged man remodeling a former crack house after being homeless for several years, and James "Jack Rabbit" Jackson is a retired police officer struggling to save his neighborhood from crime after the local police station is dissolved. STREET FIGHTING MAN pushes beyond statistics and headlines by sharing the lived experiences of the people who call Detroit home. Through the stories of these men, the film unflinchingly reveals how hard it can be to build a future when everything seems to be crumbling around you.
As Luke collects cans and acquires reclaimed materials to make an old home new again, Jack Rabbit must stand up to violent young criminals who were once children in his neighborhood. Meanwhile, Deris has to decide how he will provide for his daughter: by struggling to get an education, or by selling drugs like many of his peers. For each of these men, it is a war of little battles, often waged at home, at school, or in the streets. Ultimately, their three narratives collapse into one, telling the tale of one man as he attempts to make it though his youth, mid-life, and old age in post-industrial America.

Droppable to pause till receive value from pop-up
Dear All,
I got a droppable function. Where when I drop it will open a pop-up window and in that once I check one of the checkbox the window will close and then I would like to capture the values and update a particular function. The problem now once the pop-up called the next operation is keep going in the droppable function. How to do like a pause there? Part of my codes is below.
drop: function(event, ui) { var sourceID =ui.helper.context.id; tyreInsertID=0; window.open('tyreDetails.php?tyre=' + sourceID, 'TyreDetails','width=500, height=500'); return false; }
function updateValue(positionID,tyreID,tyreInsertIDPop,tyreCost,val,brand,size,pattern) { tyreInsertID=tyreInsertIDPop; alert("VALUE :"+tyreInsertIDPop+" "+operationType); addRowsRetread("F1L","TEST",val,1,88881); }

Friends, family and a lot of fans said goodbye to a local music legend Thursday morning.
The funeral for Don Lipovac was held in Kansas City, KS. That's where he was from and that's where KCTV met him four years ago. KCK was his home base, but he made his mark nationally and internationally.
KCTV5 featured Don Lipovac in Faces of Kansas City in 2010. At the age of 75, he and his band were still packing dance halls across the metro. It was a tradition he kept going for six decades. Pictures show him playing the accordion at a wedding dance in 1954 in the Strawberry Hill neighborhood of Kansas City, KS.
He was good. Just four years later he became the best of the best when he won the national accordion competition at Carnegie Hall.
"1958 was the biggest year of my life," Lipovac said. "That's the trophy. It's not as big as if you win a golf tournament!"
He went on to place fourth in the world competition that year in Brussels. After that Lipovac hit the big time with an appearance on the Lawrence Welk Show.
"And I was drafted in the U.S. Army, all in 1958," he said. "Wow, that was a big year. It was, yes."
When he returned home he formed the Don Lipovac Band, which became a huge draw.
"We've had the best crowds of any band in town," he said. "We've had 600 to 800 people in our booster club."
Music is Lipovac's life. At age 5 he taught himself to play the accordion. Lipovac graduated from the Kansas City Conservatory of Music with a degree in music theory. He said his favorite instrument has always been the accordion, or what he calls the poor man's symphony.
"If you were to play a French song, that's with the right hand," he said. "And then this left hand - 120 buttons. First two rows play melody. Isn't that beautiful?"
Back in 2010, Lipovac said he and his band don't travel like they used to. He said it wasn't long before that first interview that they would crisscross the United States.
"One time I played in Milwaukee in this famous polka bar, and I said 'what are the hours?'" he said. "They said 9 at night until 3 a.m."
So Lipovac played for six straight hours wowing the crowd with a 28-pound accordion strapped to his back.
Playing the accordion, he said at the time, is a labor of love that remained close to his heart.

Winchester Basics Bank marks tenth anniversary
3:17pm Tuesday 21st January 2014 in Winchester
WINCHESTER Basics Bank has celebrated its tenth anniversary with a special service in the cathedral.
The north transept welcomed around 80 guests, including the Mayor and Mayoress of Winchester, Ernie and Barbara Jeffs, and MP Steve Brine.
They joined trustees and staff of Winchester Basics Bank to mark ten years since the charity first opened its doors to clients. It provides foodstuffs to people in need.
Chairman of trustees, Jean Hart, described the event on Sunday (JAN19) as a "bittersweet moment" as she thanked all those who had been involved over the years.
"We are particularly grateful to our local churches, schools, businesses, press and individuals who have supported us so generously with their donations of food, clothing, time and money."
A celebration cake was cut by manager, Frances Rogers, and long-serving volunteer, Renee Bowe, before the group joined a packed cathedral for the annual Unity Service, where Mr Brine read a lesson.

Select Route:
Its hard to think of this route as a climb - its more of an experience. Looks for the line of bolts on the caprock, and climb it. I didn't have a stick clip, so my partner stood on my back and clipped the first bolt - this added immensely to the climb. The leader should leave a daisy or sling on the first bolt for the second. The route overhangs so much it is easier to reclimb it than to jug.
A few biners and aid climbing hardware is all you need-the route is a bolt ladder. A stick clip is useful for the first bolt, but you get full redit if you clip it by standing on your belayer's back.

There is an opportunity in every change. We humans often look to the shift of seasons, a holiday, birthday or a move to a new location to decide that it is time for a fresh start. Now that fall is officially here and we have a new store, new students in town and many new friendships beginning, it is a good time to remind ourselves of what kind of life we want to be living in this place we will be calling "home."
As a member-owned cooperative grocery, we are dedicated not only to providing each other with the healthiest food we can find but also sharing in the events that make us feel like a real community. That might mean helping local growers have a place to sell their wares, supplying concessions at a music festival, offering food to organizations that fee the hungry, and sharing knowledge with people who want to start their own cooperative ventures.
A focus of the board of directors over the last few years has been to learn more about other local cooperative businesses and how we might benefit each other. You will find our member-owners participating in biking events, clean-ups, plantings and just about every other earth-caring activity that comes to their attention.
Even if you are not a joiner, you can enhance our community spirit by making a small friendly gesture to someone in the store the next time you shop. At the top of your grocery list might be "thank the person who needs it most" or "treat someone special."
Our cooperative is more than just a "shopping experience." Healthy food includes the need for emotional nourishment as well. This is one of the places where hugging a friend in the aisle is okay.
Not too many generations back, the corner grocery was the place where everyone knew your name and probably remembered your favorite items. You shared neighborhood news and checked into who was doing well or in need. We may not be able to duplicate that level of familiarity, but we can still treat everyone as if they are our neighbors and as if we will know each other a very long time. It is this feeling that gives us permission to slow down, take notice of the good which surrounds us and truly appreciate all that we have.
Not everyone wants a run to the store to be a significant friend-meeting even. It is not efficient when you are in a hurry. But, personally, I am glad that many co-op shoppers make friendship their highest priority. Even when I don't run into folks I know, the place still feels welcoming. Judging from the current trend of constant cell phone and social media use, I think that whether we know it or not, we truly want and need many friendly encounters. Now is a good time to make them face-to-face while you pick up a few items at one of our stores. We are truly grateful for the spirit of co-operation that each of you bring.
Carol Bridges
for the Board of Directors

Abstracts From Grundrisse: Marx on Money and Capital
Eddie J. Girdner
Izmir University
Karl Marx: Grundrisse, Foundations of the Critique of Political Economy. Trans. Martin Nicolaus. Penguin Books, London, l973.
Grundrisse, Marx's notes for his great work, Capital, was written during l857-58. It remained unpublished until l953. Written in seven notebooks, it consists of just two chapters, the chapter on money and the chapter on capital. In my view it is a great and brilliant book and highly enlightening even today. It is useful to make the effort to read it, whether one is interested in going on to read Capital, the first volume published in l867, or in terms of general knowledge of a critique of capitalism and political economy. Below are presented some of the more pithy abstracts from the pen of Marx during this period.
From the Chapter on Money (First Chapter), Notebook I
"One form of wage labour may correct the abuses of another, but no form of wage labour can correct the abuse of wage labour itself." (p. 123)
"The impact of war is self-evident, since economically it is exactly the same as if the nation were to drop a part of its capital into the ocean." (p. 128)
"To be further developed, the influence of the transformation of all relations into money relations: taxes in kind into money taxes, rent in kind into money rent, military service into mercenary troops, all personal services in general into money services, of patriarchal, slave, serf, and guild labour into pure wage labour." (p. 146)
"On the other side, the power which each individual exercises over the activity of others or over social wealth exists in him as the owner of exchange values, of money. The individual carries his social power, as well as his bond with society, in his pocket." (p. 157)
"…money is the general form of wealth… Money is therefore the god among commodities… From its servile role, in which it appears as mere medium of circulation, it suddenly changes into the lord and god of the world of commodities. It represents the divine existence of commodities, while they represent its earthly form." (p. 221)
"Money gives… a general power over society, over the whole world of gratification, labours, etc." (p. 222)
"Money is therefore not only an object, but it is the object of greed… Money is therefore not only the object but also the fountainhead of greed." (p. 222)
"The mania for possessions is possible without money; but greed itself is the product of a definite social development, not natural, as opposed to historical." (p. 222)
"Monetary greed, or mania for wealth, necessarily brings with it the decline and fall of the ancient communities. Hence it is the antithesis of them. It is itself the community, and can tolerate none other standing above it." (p. 229)
From The Chapter on Capital:
What "political economy attempts to evade'' about money "… is that a social relation, a definite relation between individuals, here appears as a metal, a stone, as a purely physical, external thing which can be found, as such, in nature and which is indistinguishable in form from its natural existence." (p. 239)
Before money becomes capital the circulation of money and commodities is based upon "freedom."
"Equality and freedom are thus not only respected in exchange based on exchange values but, also, the exchange of exchange values is the productive real basis of all equality and freedom." (p. 245)
But this is just the surface process, the appearance. When money has been transformed into capital, the processes which go on beneath the surface are the very opposite of freedom.
"In present bourgeois society as a whole, this positing of prices and their bourgeois as a whole, this positing of prices and their circulation etc., appears as the surface process, beneath which, however, in the depths, entirely different processes go on, in which this apparent individual equality and liberty disappear." (p. 247)
It turns out that this "equality and freedom" proves to be "inequality and unfreedom" once money develops into capital. (pp. 248-249)
The individual is "entirely determined by society." (p. 248)
First, the worker "has an existence only as a producer of exchange value…" (p. 248)
This means that … "the whole negation of his natural existence is already implied…" So "he is therefore entirely determined by society." (p. 248)
Marx replies to the French socialists (including Proudhon) … "who want to depict socialism as the realization of the ideals of bourgeois society articulated by the French Revolution."
They want to demonstrate that exchange and exchange value are "a system of universal freedom and equality, but that they have been perverted by money, capital, etc." (p. 248)
Marx would reply:
"The proper reply to them is: that exchange value or, more precisely, the money system is in fact the system of equality and freedom, and that the disturbances which they encounter in the further development of the system are disturbances inherent in it, are merely the realization of equality and freedom, which prove to be inequality and unfreedom." (pp. 248-249)
About the transformation from money to capital:
"The immortality which money strove to achieve by setting itself negatively against circulation, by withdrawing from it, is achieved by capital, which preserves itself precisely by abandoning itself to circulation." (p. 261)
"Money (as returned to itself from circulation), as capital, has lost its rigidity, and from a tangible thing has become a process." (p. 263)
"The labour which stands opposite capital is alien labour, and the capital which stands opposite labour is alien capital." (p. 266)
On Capital and Labour:
"Labour is the yeast thrown into it, which starts it fermenting." (p. 298)
"Therefore, labour does not exist as a use value for the worker: for him it is therefore not a power productive of wealth [and] not a means or the activity of gaining wealth." (p. 305)
"It is clear, therefore, that the worker cannot become rich in this exchange, since, in exchange for his labour capacity as a fixed, available magnitude, he surrenders its creative power, like Esau his birthright for a mess of pottage." (p. 307)
"Thus the productivity of his labour, his labour in general, in so far as it is not a capacity but a motion, real labour, comes to confront the worker as an alien power; capital, inversely, realizes itself through the appropriation of alien labour." (p. 307)
"Labour itself is productive only if absorbed into capital, where capital forms the basis of production, and where the capitalist is therefore in command of production." (p. 308)
It gets worse as time goes along.
"Thus the more developed capital already is, the more surplus labour it has created, the more terribly must it develop the productive force in order to realize itself in only smaller proportion, i.e., to add surplus value…" (p. 340)
Some background here.
"Labour is the living form-giving fire…" (p. 361)
"We see therefore that the capitalist, by means of the exchange process with the worker… obtains two things free of charge, first the surplus labour which increases the value of his capital; but at the same time, secondly, the quality of living labour which maintains the previous labour materialized in the component parts of capital and thus preserves the previously existing value of capital." (p. 365)
Notebook IV:
"An increase in the productivity of labour means nothing more than that the same capital creates the same value with less labour, or that less labour creates the same product with more capital." (p. 388)
"With the development of the forces of production, necessary labour time decreases and surplus labour time thereby increases." (p. 397)
Capital must exploit labour to the maximum extent possible.
"It is a law of capital … to create surplus labour…" (p. 399)
"It is therefore equally a tendency of capital to increase the laboring population, as well as constantly to posit a part of it as surplus population-population which is useless until such time as capital can utilize it." (p. 399)
"…[t]he production of workers becomes cheaper, more workers can be produced in the same time, in proportion as necessary labour time becomes smaller or the time required for the production of living labour capacity becomes relatively smaller." (p. 400)
"The increase of population itself [is] the chief means for reducing the necessary part" [of the working day.] (p. 400-401)
"Here already lie, then, all the contradictions which modern population theory expresses as such, but does not grasp." (p. 401)
Footnote on Page 401: Because of the increasing population, capital creates "minus-labour", that is, relative idleness. That is, paupers, flunkeys, lickspittles, etc., those who live from surplus value but are not productive workers.
"… [T]he creation of surplus labour on the one side corresponds to the creation of minus-labour, relative idleness (or not-productive labour at best), on the other." (p. 401)
"The tendency to create the world market is directly given in the concept of capital itself." (p. 408)
New consumption must be produced and expanded which also involves the objectification and destruction of all of nature.
"First quantitative expansion of existing consumption ; secondly: creation of new needs by propagating existing ones in a wide circle; thirdly: production of new needs and discovery and creation of new use values." (p. 408)
"Hence exploration of all nature in order to discover new, useful qualities in things; universal exchange of the products of all alien climates and lands; new (artificial) preparation of natural objects, by which they are given new use values." (p. 409)
"For the first time, nature becomes purely an object for humankind, purely a matter of utility; ceases to be recognized as a power for itself; and the theoretical discovery of autonomous laws appears merely as a ruse so as to subjugate it under human needs, whether as an object of consumption or as a means of production." (p. 410)
"In accord with this tendency, capital drives beyond national barriers and prejudices as much as beyond nature worship, as well as well as all traditional, confined, complacent, encrusted satisfactions of present needs, and reproductions of old ways of life. It is destructive towards all of this, and constantly revolutionizes it, tearing down all barriers which hem in the development of the forces of production, the expansion of needs, the all sided development of production, and the exploitation and exchange of natural and mental forces." (p. 410)
"On the other side, Ricardo and his entire school never understood the really modern crises, in which this contradiction of capital discharges itself in great thunderstorms which increasingly threaten it as the foundation of society and of production itself." (p. 411)
About supply and demand and overproduction, Marx says that the commodities produced have to enter circulation and be transformed into money.
"…[T]hat production is not identical with realization , i.e. that it is overproduction, or, what is the same, that it is production which cannot be transformed into money, into value; production which does not pass the test of circulation." (p. 412)
Production becomes a barrier to capital and capital becomes a barrier to production.
"…[T]he higher the development of capital, the more it appears as barrier to production-hence also to consumption." (p. 416)
"To each capitalist, the total mass of all workers, with the exception of his own workers, appear not as workers, but as consumers, possessors of exchange values (wages), money, which they exchange for his commodity." (p. 419)
"…[C]apital forces the workers beyond necessary labour to surplus labour. Only in this way does it realize itself, and create surplus value." (p. 421)
The worker not only produces alien wealth and his own poverty, but endows alienated wealth with its soul and enables it to reproduce itself.
"He has produced not only the alien wealth and his own poverty, but also the relation of this wealth as independent, self-sufficient wealth, relative to himself as the poverty which this wealth consumes, and from which wealth thereby draws new vital spirits into itself, and realizes itself anew." (p. 453)
"The product of labour appears as alien property, as a mode of existence confronting living labour as independent, as value in its being for itself; the product of labour, objectified labour, has been endowed by living labour with a soul of its own, and establishes itself opposite living labour as an alien power: both these situations are themselves the product of labour." (pp. 453-454)
"It here becomes evident that labour itself progressively extends and gives an even wider and fuller existence to the objective world of wealth as a power alien to labour, so that relative to the values created or to the real conditions of value creation, the penurious subjectivity of living labour capacity forms an ever more glaring contrast." (p. 455)
"The greater the extent to which labour objectifies itself, the greater becomes the objective world of values, which stands opposite it as alien property. With the creation of surplus capital, labour places itself under the compulsion to create yet further surplus capital, etc. etc." (p. 455)
"We see that, by a peculiar logic , the right of property undergoes a dialectical inversion, so that on the side of capital it becomes the right to an alien product, or the right to property over alien labour, the right to appropriate alien labour without an equivalent, and, on the other side of labour capacity, it becomes the duty to relate to one's own labour or to one's own product as to alien property." (p. 458)
"The right of property is inverted, to become, on the one side, the right to appropriate alien labour, and, on the other, the duty of respecting the product of one's own labour, and one's own labour itself, as values belonging to others." (p. 458)
This is, however, not "exchange" or is a "mere semblance" of exchange. Everything in the old exchange of equivalence is destroyed. "Exchange has thus dropped away entirely." [under the relations of capital] (p. 458)
Marx expresses this as follows:
"The exchange of equivalents, however, which appeared as the original operation, an operation to which the right of property gave legal expression, has become turned around in such a way that the exchange by one side is now only illusory, since the part of capital, which is exchanged for living labour, appropriated without equivalent, and secondly, has to be replaced with a surplus by living labour capacity, is thus in fact not consigned away, but merely changed from one form into another… The relation of exchange has thus dropped away entirely, or is a mere semblance." (p. 458)
Then the analysis gets even richer.
"Finally, the result of the process of production and realization is, above all, the reproduction and new production of the relation of capital and labour itself, of capitalist and worker. This social relation, production relation, appears in fact as an even more important result of the process than its material results. And more particularly, within this process the worker produces himself as labour capacity, as well as capital confronting him, while at the same time the capitalist produces himself as capital as well as the living labour capacity confronting him. Each reproduces itself, by reproducing its other, its negation. The capitalist produces labour as alien; labour produces the product as alien. The capitalist produces the worker, and the worker the capitalist, etc. " (p. 458)
The bourgeois economists are not willing to face these facts. So they try to legitimize the process. For them, the capitalist still appropriates as "not-capitalist."
"These attempts at apologetics demonstrate a guilty conscience, as well as the inability to bring the mode of appropriation of capital into harmony with the general laws of property proclaimed by capitalist society itself." (p. 460)
The production process violates the laws of property proclaimed by capitalist society, against the property of the worker, that is, his labour power. And
"…[L]abour capacity's own labour is as alien to it…" (p. 462)
This results in a very long sentence, which is a great sentence, really, and brings in the element of consciousness of exploitation.
"…which is why the product then appears to it as a combination of alien material, alien instrument and alien labour-as alien property, and why, after production, it has become poorer by the life forces expended, but otherwise begins the drudgery anew, existing as a mere subjective labour capacity separated from the conditions of its life. The recognition of the products as its own, and the judgment that its separation from the conditions of its realization is improper-forcibly imposed- is an enormous [advance in] awareness, itself the product of the mode of production resting on capital, and as much the knell to its doom as, with the slave's awareness that he cannot be the property of another, with his consciousness of himself as a person, the existence of slavery becomes a merely artificial, vegetative existence, and ceases to be able to prevail as the basis of production." (p. 463)
This is unnatural.
Eating the worker: Capital is the true community. In the same way, today the true politics is capital. Capital calls the shots in bourgeois politics.
"In bourgeois society, the worker, e.g. stands there purely without objectivity, subjectively; but the thing which stands opposite him has now become the true community, which he tries to make a meal of, and which makes a meal of him." (p. 496)
The natural conditions of production have been dissolved as a historical process.
"…[T]he relations of labour to capital, or to the objective conditions of labour as capital, presupposes a process of history which dissolves the various forms in which the worker is a proprietor, or in which the proprietor works. Thus above all (1) dissolution of the relation to the earth-land and soil-as natural condition of production-to which he relates as to his own inorganic being; the workshop of his forces, and the domain of his will." (p. 498)
Capitalism stockpiles workers.
"Capital proper does nothing but bring together the mass of hands and instruments which it finds on hand. It agglomerates them under its command. That is its real stockpiling; the stockpiling of workers…" (p, 508)
"The production of capitalists and wage labourers is thus a chief product of capital's realization process." (p. 512)
On Privatization: The true test of the capitalist form of society.
"The separation of public works from the state, and their migration into the domain of the works undertaken by capital itself, indicates the degree to which the real community has constituted itself in the form of capital." (p. 531)

Adjust District Boundaries for Supervisors
Little talked about, but of much influence in determining the direction of our City, is the upcoming redrawing of district boundaries as a result of the most recent census. Many people lament the extremeness of this board of Supervisors, but little has been focused on how those Supervisors came to power, what has kept them in power, and are districts they represent truly reflective of our City?
One can see how the attempt was made to place entire neighborhoods, and allegedly neighborhoods of similar political leanings, within the same district. But on closer examination, it is very curious how certain neighborhoods were place together, and how certain districts in particular were cobbled together.
No one would argue that District 4 needs to be adjusted: the Sunset is the Sunset and deserves its own district. And the Richmond is the Richmond, so District 1 is fine.
The one that need significant adjustment is District 6. For years, I have worked in the inner Mission District with many local non-profits and residents, and it always strikes them as a surprise to know that their Supervisor is from District 6 - SOMA and the Tenderloin. In fact, the Mission is the largest cohesive neighborhood in the City that is divided between so many different Supervisorial district - 6,8, & 9. It is the heart of the Latino community and its power base in the City, but yet it is divided or better yet spread around to ensure more "progressive" (I would argue extreme) views are represented in more districts. Can anyone imagine Chinatown being divided?
Without the inner Mission in his district Chris Daly would not have been reelected last time, without part of the Mission in District 8 Raphael Mandalman would not have a shot against Scott Wiener. And without a divided Mission, the District 9 Supervisor would have to pay closer attention to what the inner Mission says versus Bernal Heights (but its not clear that their interests would divide, but maybe on issues like Home Depot, not Loews).
Anyone ready to fight for a fairer and balanced district boundary process? This is the real battle for the future of the City's politics.
SF has too many districts
We have too many districts. I've lived in SF for 40 years and seen the city go from no districts to districts, back to no districts, back to districts again. IMHO they just don't work the way people want them to. They are supposed to represent geographic areas that have commonalities of culture, neighborhood demographics, etc. But SF has too many isolated segments that are too diverse for districts to work. As a result any given supervisor has multiple different groups to represent and ends up ignoring at least part of his constituency. And, of course, we have way too many supervisors in the first place.
As DonRoss states above, some of the current districts make sense, but others are a hodgepodge and simply don't work. Add to that the rapidity of change in neighborhoods. Gentrification - like it or not - changes demographics and after a while a district needs to have its boundaries changed. Such gerrymandering is not in the best interests of the city as a whole.
I strongly feel we need to eliminate district elections. They aren't fair to city residents and they cause conflict in board meetings. I recommend that we either go back to all supervisors being voted for at large, or we change to a mix of districts and at large supervisors. If we must have districts, then I recommend that there be four districts of NW, NE, SW and SE. Period. Four districts. Each of these macro districts has integral needs such as Muni, Parks, Jobs, Schools, and other city services. For example, Muni lines that serve Park Merced also serve the rest of the SW quadrant of the city, so one supervisor for that district represents that quadrant for Muni, Fire, Police, etc.
If we have four macro quadrants, then we can have three or five at large supervisors who represent the entire city. And the maximum number of supervisors should be nine although I'd prefer to see the number reduced to seven.
Although I strongly support a two term limit for supervisors, I would be willing to consider a modification if we went to a hybrid system of both district and at large supervisors. I would allow an individual to serve three consecutive terms as long as they were not all as a district supervisor or all as an at large supervisor. But if it is only districts or only at large, then the two term max should be retained.
District Elections
Maybe if all of these Supervisors were elected by a City wide vote it would solve a lot of the problems we face today in City Hall. They would have to live in the district they live in, so they can truly represent it, but they would be elected by everyone, ensuring that they will work for all of San Francisco. People like Chris Daly did not truly represent there districts, just the non-profit groups that kept funding his elections. We need down the middle of the road Leaders that can cross both sides of the fence & come up with great policy, instead of one-sided views.
Big G has a good idea
Hey, that is a great idea - the Supes represent the district the live in but are elected at large by the whole city! Boy there have been times I've wanted to vote for some candidates that I thought were excellent but was stuck here in District 9 with limited choices. Let me vote all districts!
That doesn't mean I approve district elections. I still think we should:
1. Reduce the number of Supervisors down to 7 or 9
2. Change to city wide elections with no districts at all
3. Or have a hybrid with four (4) geographic districts with one supe each and three supes elected citywide.
I agree completely!
I agree completely with DonRoss' comment concerning redistricting. I think it is a travesty that the Mission has been chiseled the way it has been. It is shamefull.
"...imagine Chinatown being divided?"
Of course not. But remember, these districts are not divided per the rules set forth in the Constitution, i.e., by population. If they were, The district which encompasses all of West of Twin Peaks, the Parkside, St. Francis Woods, Forest Hill, the Inner Sunset, etc., would have several Supervisors. But we all know that the way the districts are divided don't have anything to do with population. They have to do with race, sexual orientation, and other factors which don't belong in the process.
Redistricting - Too many districts - Citywide elections
A friend of mine served on the commission that drew the current district lines. The stories he tells of folks who live across the street from each other arguing that they are nothing like "those people" are enlightening. I am a Realtor and our association uses districts for the placement and marketing of homes and neighborhoods. We have ten districts, but then we aren't concerned with tie votes. I still propose seven district supervisors and four citywide supervisors. The four would have to move toward the center to get elected and the seven can advocate as a neighborhood rep should.
Having a local person on the Board is really invaluable. This is someone you can get to know and who will pay attention to you and others because to get elected they need about a thousand votes more than the other person. Many times even less, Daly beat Rob Black by 600 votes in the last election.
District Representation Examples?
I posted this under "Too many Supervisors" and got no reply. I'm still curious. Who can cite real examples of district supervisors taking actions that served their districts? I mean something that was district specific and might have been ignored, omitted, fallen through, or otherwise not addressed if we did not have district supervisors?
I would like to see some comments from posters of real life examples of when your district was actually helped by your district supervisor. I had eight years of Ammiano who seemed to represent "the gay community" more than the "District Nine Community" I can not recall one thing that Ammiano shepherded through the board that was a "solely for the benefit of his district" issue. Now I have Campos and the same is still true. The CONCEPT of District elections is fine. The REALITY of District elections is not. I just don't see how the totality of the city has been enhanced by district elections.
Several years ago one might have been able to say: "When I can't get help elsewhere, I can always contact my district supervisor." But even that is hardly true any more. Now when I need to contact the city I can just call 311. They handle over 225,000 calls a month - who needs to call a Supervisor?. (For more info about 311 check their web site at www.SF311.org)
However, just because I don't feel my district supervisor represents my district, perhaps others have had a different experience; if so, please share. Some real examples of how your district supervisor interacted with the city or the other supes to the advantage of your specific district would go a long way toward understanding the value of district elections.
Yes, I know I posted this in another thread, but I got no replies. Does that mean that there are no examples or that no one read my post? What has your Supe done that was strictly district related?

America Online CEO Steve Case Announces $1 Million Grant to Habitat for Humanity for Rebuilding Oklahoma Communities in Aftermath of Tornadoes
Oklahoma City - May 15, 1999 - America Online Chairman and CEO Steve Case and his wife, Jean, announced today a $1 million Stephen Case Foundation grant to Habitat for Humanity International for building new homes in the aftermath of devastating tornadoes that struck Oklahoma on May 3.
"AOL and the Stephen Case Foundation care deeply about the ongoing reconstruction of the communities in and around Oklahoma City. With this donation, Habitat for Humanity will be able to help economically disadvantaged families rebuild and move forward with their lives," Steve Case said.
The donation came in the form of a "challenge" grant that will match every dollar donated to Central Oklahoma and Norman, Okla., Habitat for Humanity affiliates by individuals, businesses and institutions around the nation for reconstruction in the Oklahoma City area.
"This is a critical piece of the puzzle that Central Oklahoma Habitat has been putting together since May 3, when we realized we needed to rebuild hope and homes for the affected families," said affiliate President Ann Felton. "We expect the generosity of the Case Foundation will inspire many others to join in this rebuilding campaign," Felton said.
Habitat for Humanity International has launched a nationwide appeal for financial assistance to the tornado victims of Oklahoma and Kansas.
"When disaster strikes and people are left homeless, people from all over the world call Habitat for Humanity," said Habitat Founder and President Millard Fuller. "We want to put this support to work in the long process of planning and rebuilding homes in partnership with people in need."
Habitat for Humanity International is a nonprofit, ecumenical Christian organization dedicated to eliminating poverty housing worldwide. Habitat brings together people with resources and people in need to build simple, decent, affordable houses. The homes are sold to those in need at no profit, through no-interest loans. Founded in 1976 by Millard Fuller along with his wife, Linda, Habitat for Humanity has built more than 70,000 houses, providing shelter for more than 350,000 people worldwide. It has affiliates in every state of the United States and in 62 other coutnries around the world.

textarea store and return
Hi all,
I have a form on my site for user registration.
When that is filled in and returned, there is a copy of it in the Admin panel of the CMS (custom built).
I'm wanting to add a field for NOTES, only on the admin side.
I've added it in and
if I use the INPUT tag, I can type in, it gets stored in the database and if I save and leave that admin page, when I come back, the NOTES are there.
That is what I want.
But, I want a bigger box, more space so as to more readily see what is typed into the notes.
So, I'm switching from INPUT to TEXTAREA.
When I use TEXTAREA, I type it in, it's stored in the database, but when I save and leave the page, then come back, the notes are empty, it does not pull those notes back in from the database.
I can't figure out what I'm missing.
Any suggestions???
Thanks!!!!Pandora can't go back into the box - he only comes out.

finally figured it out.
using INPUT, the php call to the database is in the value="" part, and the tag is self closing.
using TEXTAREA, it needs to put in between the opening and closing TEXTAREA tags to bring in back in from the database.Pandora can't go back into the box - he only comes out.

Sounds like PHP doesn't know how to interface with textareas... Javascript knows for example that the .value property will contain the value text, like with inputs.
Though I've also seen php code using get/post where the "name" attribute of the textarea worked fine.
