Step up your plans to create a superior patio surface - The Province, Sunday August 21st
August 22, 2011
Stone makes a terrific patio or walkway, with a natural striking appearance that blends well with all types of landscaping. Make sure to use a hard and flat stone material, which is suitable for walkways and patios.
Stone can be laid in a variety of patterns. An irregular pattern gives the most natural look, but will require more cutting so that the stones fit together tightly.
If you desire a more formal appearance, you can use a multiple-cut pattern of rectangles and squares that join in a geometric pattern. If you do not wish to do all the cutting, stone can be purchased pre-cut and then put together like a jigsaw puzzle.
You can also purchase pre-cut stones of the same size and place them in a brick-like pattern.
A stone patio or walkway may be built with either wet or dry construction. Dry construction can also be called "brick in sand construction."
The edging can be concrete, stone or wood. The sand base should be at least four inches deep on top of a well-compacted road base gravel.
Joints between stones can be filled with paving stone sand, crushed stone or decorative gravel to give it a unique appearance.
For a more permanent patio, use wet construction, setting the stone in a four-inch concrete slab with a four-inch gravel base, properly graded for drainage, and a perimeter footing to the frost line.
To make a stronger base, place reinforcing wire mesh between the gravel and the concrete.
To set the stones, mix a mortar of one part masonry cement, three parts sand and bonding agent with water to the consistency of a good packing snow (the kind you make snowballs with).
Spread over the concrete to a thickness of about one inch. Spread only enough prepared mortar to set one or two stones at a time. Tap the stones with a rubber mallet to embed them in the mortar, making sure that they are all level and even. After one week, seal with a concrete sealer such as

Absolutely loving this theme. Just one question, can I style forms? for in-field label? I get html form from my Contact Management System (Infusionsoft) and I was wondering if the theme can style the form? It would be a shame to put an ugly form into such a beautiful theme. Thanks Nico. Great work.
Yes, you can add CSS in your admin panel on Admin Panel>>Elitist>>Style Options
Or you can include a CSS rule from the new forms into the Theme styles.
Hello eneaa
First of all, your template is absolutely great! I can't understand why at the moment these fullscreen templates are that in at the moment.. (they aren't really "productively" useable for me), thank you so much for creating & selling this kind of template here !
I've a question regarding the portfolio item images size: It is resizing/raising the image-size to 1170px when it's less than 1170px (600px max with/height in my case) automatically. Is there any possibility, to define a max lengh/height for a portfolio item, which includes several images?
Do you want to reduce the height of the images or the width?
If it is necessary, yes. but only for some portfolio items. I want that my uploaded images witz original size 600×400 keep this resolution and aren't automatically 1170xXXX big after uploading into the portfolio. How is this possible?
Slider is not showing slide images on WP 3.5
Can you show me your URL? I will take a look
Hi There,
I would like to add my long rectangular logo at the top of the page in that long black empty space but when I upload in the settings it only displays small barley 1/4 of the width of the page and not centred vertically.
Thanks in advance,
elitist/header.phpFor this one: http://cl.ly/LejG/header.php
Hi there, I love the theme and the home page/portfolio is amazing. Looking at it for a client to see if they can use it for a commercial blog that relies on advertising and how and where we can place adverts on the website. I know it takes away some of the uniqueness of the design but is it possible to add a sidebar to the portfolio/home page?
Many thanks,
You can easly place ads above or under the portfolio in the Home Page. That will be much easier than using a sidebar.
This theme is slick, elegant, and plain classy. I made myself a beautiful site for my production company in under 3 weeks (intense) work, being a complete newbie…
Fast, friendly and patient support from the author Nico, worthy of mention. Highly recommended. Ch
Thank you very much!
Hello! Can we also put videos or link to vimeo videos? I have video files as well as photographs to show…
Also sorry for the newbie question, but I see high resolution yes/no, what exactly does this mean?
Well… I guess it does, I just saw in the live demo that you have links to vimeo videos. I should have looked closer.
I just purchased your theme and I really like it!
I just have a few questions… : 1. I uploaded a video on my site (.mov) and when I test it I see Flowplayer start the video however I don't have the time cursor available. How do I toggle this on? 2. I see that v5.2.1 is out for flowplayer, how do I update this?
Hello, you've made beautiful theme. I have a few questions: - Do all used fonts include polish characters? - Translation to polish – is it possible? And how much CSS-mastery is needed to do it? - Do you know anything about compatibility with http://www.e-junkie.com/ service?
1. Not all fonts include polish characters. All Google fonts yes but some cufon font don't.
2. I don't know specific compatibility with that service, but if it works with WordPress I think you safe.
Thank you for your answers. I bought the theme and installed. My website: http://www.ewaipiotr.pl/
Still configuring it. Important thing – my main page is blog. And it should stay so.
1. Unfortunately, none of the Cufon fonts have polish characters. I use google fonts. Not so pretty. Any chances for upgrade of cufon fonts with polish characters?
2. How, on the main page of the blog, set "Date", "By" "In" and "With" not on the left side of picture, but below the title of the blognote – just like it looks when you click on the note (when displaying content of the note)?
3. Changing fonts and style (normal or bold) in "Content Typography" in "Styling Options" tab doesn't work. Though changing colors in this sections – works.
Probably related problem: color of active links is set in "Styling Options" – "Links Typography". It works well on Tags – when mouse pointer is over active words, the words change color to black. This is ok. But in all other links – when mouse pointer hoovers over links, the color changes to light grey and is almost invisible on my white bacground. How to change it?
4. How to regulate (narrow) width of the right widget space?
5. In standard Search widget – the whole widget is black when non active, but when clicked – changes to white and characters are also white – totally invisible.6. Shortcodes are great, especially Tabs. I would love to make something like Post tabs, but with Links, putting two groups of links in separate tabs. How is it possible?
Please send me an email with these questions, so I can give you better support. Here in the comments there is not much firstname.lastname@example.com
Send! Happy New Year!
Ad 2. "Date", "By" "In" and "With" can be like on your demo – just below picture, on the left side of the text. It could be even better than above picture. I see it is possible, but how?
Firstly I must say your theme is the closest and best theme I've found up to date, it's like it was developed for me personally. I love it!
There's just one question I have. Is it possible to remove or re-locate the "like/share on facebook/twitter/google+" buttons on the posts of a portfolio?
I use the Before / After effect and I think it's because of those "share" buttons that the images aren't stretched as wide as the gallery above. My website: http://www.kurotorobert.com/photography/portraits/
As you can see the before/after images are smaller than the gallery above them. I wish for them to be as big/wide as them. I don't really want to create a separate page for the before/after images.
Thank you for any help!
span8for this:
Ad 2. I got how to put pictures just below the blog note title – by assigning picture as an icon of the note. But it has constant cinematic proportions – that means cropping standard landscape 3:2 photos and making a total mess of any portait oriented photos. It looks nice on the demo, but has very limited practical use. Could you:
a) let place "Date", "By" "In" and "With" horizontally just below the title of the blognote – just like it looks when you click on the note (when displaying content of the note)?
b) make possible to assign icon to the note, but so that the icon won't be visible above the note – just to have a picture for displaying in the widget tabs only? That way I could put big pictures into the text whithout worrying about their proportions.
7. How to change the icon (pen, landscape etc) before the post title? Like on your demo blog? Preferably I would like to assign an icon to every category so that the icon would be automatically put to any post belonging to this category. I understand the icon is now assigned to the format type of the note.
8. Positions in menu are set in alphabetical order, instead of of "as organized in administrators panel". How to change the order in the menu?
9. My parent menu "Warsztaty" on my website was a page – is not anymore. Is it possible to set parent menu as page (or decide if it will be page or not)? No parent menu can be page or does it depend of something? I can work around any of this options, I just need clarification.
10. When set "light" style of the theme, names of the commentators are white – on almost white background, in case of my website. Setting text color doesn't change it. Could you fix it?
Ad 8 – forget the question But could you write the answer to WStephi question about changing the menu to "standard" horizontal?

Apparently the amount Timberlake was paid is far less than $3 million, but he did donate the entire amount to Shriners Hospital for Children.
Timberlake's performance in question was his first official concert in five years and included a ten-piece back up band, as well as surprise on-stage appearances by Jay-Z and Timbaland.
Timberlake ended the evening with his hit "SexyBack" — and by donating his entire paycheck to Shriners Hospital for Children, confirms a DirecTV rep.

There's some movement in the case between Natasha Georgette Williams, the model suing Flo Rida (real name Tramar Lacel Dillard) for child support of her unborn child. The Miami-based rapper has admitted to participating in the act that may have created a baby with that woman, but he's still skeptical that he's the father. Williams' lawyer Raymond Rafool told us "Shame that Flo Rida attempts such character assassination of the mother of his child all to avoid his moral and financial responsibilities to his child. But, at least he made some progress from denying he knows Natasha to okay, we had sex - surely he knows where babies come from...."

William Shakespeare
William Shakespeare (26 April 1564 - 23 April 1616 / Warwickshire)
Poems by William Shakespeare : 30 / 410
? or John Fletcher.
ORPHEUS with his lute made trees
And the mountain tops that freeze
Bow themselves when he did sing:
To his music plants and flowers
Ever sprung; as sun and showers
There had made a lasting spring.
Every thing that heard him play,
Even the billows of the sea,
Hung their heads and then lay by.
In sweet music is such art,
Killing care and grief of heart
Fall asleep, or hearing, die.

i need to install a french drain on two sides of my garage to keep it from flooding, but there's a hiccup to the situation. our problem is that our rectangular lot slopes downhill as you go back to the garage -- and slightly to the opposite corner of the lot from the garage -- but our lot backs our neighbor's, so i can't have the drain pipe emerge from the ground and drain out. grr!
anywho, my idea is to take the end of the french drain after it "L"s around our garage and send the pipe to a large retention pond (read: hole) i'll dig at the corner of our lot -- about 3 feet in diameter and 3 feet deep. i'll feed the drain pipe into the pond and fill the hole with gravel or coarse sand to give the water from the drain somewhere to go that's below the level of our garage, but not directly into our neighbor's yard.
will this idea of creating a destination for the water solve my problem or create a totally new one? any suggestions will be appreciated.

"Oh and I guess theres a third one: In my lifetime (again) I have not seen too much meaningful change take place inside the government without pressure applied from the outside with concerted and organized social pressure."
You should have met Robert Kennedy. I was working at the Willowbrook State School when he marched in with his army to examine conditions! It was like a breath of fresh air! The place went up hill from there… Then there is Governor Sargent who as Governor of Massachusetts closed the Commonwealth's reform schools and changed many lives for the better. This was a very unpopular move, and he lost the following election, BUT to this day Massachusetts locks up fewer children) by population percentage) then any other jurisdiction. Then there is Governor Ryan of Illinois who commuted all the death sentences in that state because HE felt there may be innocent folks on death row. 60% + people in these united states believe in the death penalty.
I'm NOT saying you are wrong (in general) I am saying look, and you might find some exceptions!

No, actually not! There were three major parties in John Adams time, and one was the "Royalists" In addition the individual States were far more powerful than the very weak federal government, and some ran favorite sons Under the "Virginia's Hope" and the Rhode Island "Anti Slave"
When I was growing up in New York the voting machines listed no fewer than 8 political parties including Communist, Socialist, Conservative, and Family.
But you are mistaken and probably because you have been fed the media pablum that (as you claim later in your post)
"Its not about the President. Its about the Population. Its a democracy.
Democracies do not have electoral colleges, weighted votes, or gerrymandered districts. If we were a Democracy there would be no doubt about who won the 2000 election.

I would like to explain my 2008 vote before it happens.\
If Kucinich wins the Democratic party primaries, I will vote for him. I could squeeze out a vote for Gravel also.
If Kucinich and Gravel are defeated in the Democratic party, I could Vote for Paul on the Republican side….I'm also looking at Tom Tancredo. These folks are all outsiders, and if none win, I will vote for Nader. For all you folks who hope he does not run…. I know well how to "write in" a name and address.
Nader was not a "spoiler" in the 2000/2004 elections. that position is reserved for voters who like myself would rather vote for a dead guy than Hill-the-business-shill or the scam-artist, ex-mayor.

Does anyone really believe, had Gore been elected President,with the Senator from Tel Aviv, Joe Lieberman as his vice president,that there would be anything different happening in the Middle East today? The response to 9/11 would have been the same in any case, and Vice president Lieberman/Cheney would have got his Iraq war. Mr. Nader is quite correct; there is no difference between the two parties, which have neither regard or respect for the citizenry or our Constitution. Mikedog
By Mark A. Goldman, October 12, 2007 at 6:54 am Link to this comment
One of the dumbest comments that Scheer and others made is that Ralph is to blame for not making a bigger impact. Ralph can't give anyone courage or common sense if they don't already have some. He courageously stood up for a higher ideal, stated his case elequently, and put his ass on the line to defend his country and the Constitution. He rang the bell for freedom. You can't blame him if there are not enough true patriots left who are willing to answer the call when it comes. That's the responsibility that each citizen has to address for him or herself. Ralph did his job. He gave us a choice… a better choice than the other two parties offered and we turned him down. You can't blame him for that. You have to look in the mirror if you want to know why we are in Iraq, why the constitution is being dismantled, and why corruption is advancing fast while real competence and integrity is out of favor. Ralph, if you run again, you have my vote.
By jim d, October 12, 2007 at 1:11 am Link to this comment
Nader argues the case so well, citing facts and reminding us of the history of the Democratic Party's betrayals over and over again. Even though it got slighly heated at time the cordiality between them never completely left and to me that was a welcome change from the talking head sound bite talk shows. The debate demonstrates and shows that we can disagree and still be allies.
Nader, while not backing off his right to run, and in addition to reminding us of the stolen elections not defended and the scholarly evidence debunking the spoiler argument also educated us about IRV Instant Runoff Voting.
This enables a person to rank their choices on the ballot 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. If the voters 1st choice doesn't come in then their 2nd choice counts etc until someone gets 50%. This is the electoral reform which Democrats could NOW - Right NOW enact in 15 states. They have the governor and legislature majorities to make it happen. They have instead killed it in committee in Md and Vt. Why? They would rather have their 2 party system than win and occasionally have to share power with a 3rd party, like the Greens.
Nader is correct about the courts and structure stacked against a 3rd party, but that doesn't mean we don't keep trying and educating people about their electoral options and who is blocking true democracy. Many of us will never go back to the Democratic Party.
We go into the street as allies and risk arrest, but when we go into the voting booth to vote our ideals we are enemies. This is crazy and unnecessary. IRV needs to happen.

Ralph it's all perspective. The half million Iraqis looking up from their graves disagree with your 'no difference' nonsense. How dare you compare Gore with this fascist idiot.
By DennisD, October 11, 2007 at 6:54 pm Link to this comment
Somebody tell me how someone running for any office in this country that offers a clear direction other than the current one party line can be called a "spoiler". You can't "spoil" our already corrupt system of government.
Gore couldn't even carry his home state, why? - because he offered no change. Unless a continuation of the giveaway of the country under Clinton is considered a good thing.
Hindsight being 20/20 - no one could've predicted that Bu$h would be the worst President in the history of this country. When the outcome of the election was predetermined by the courts and or Diebold there's no such thing as a spoiler.
I voted for Nader and I'd vote for him again. If there are better candidates let them state their case. This voting for the lesser of two evils state of mind has to end because no matter how it turns out you still have one evil to deal with and that's a continuation of the problem not the solution. Vote for someone you believe offers real change or stay the hell home on election day.

Brilliant discourse. Scheer is a master interviewer, wonderful at framing the argument. And the longtime warrior Nader has walked the trenches of his perspective. This exchange was altogether provocative respectful and enlightening. Thank you.
By dice, October 11, 2007 at 5:05 pm Link to this comment
There is a reason you only heard 6'25 of scheer. He stayed away from the issues and instead focused on just berating ralph for running in 00 and 04.
If he would stop apologizing for democrats and actually speak what he thinks is right it could have been a debate.
Sorry but the Democrats have done nothing but prove ralph right since 200. Arguing that everything would have been completely different is just nonsense. They now have the house and senate and not a damn thing has changed or look like it is going to change. Sure there may be a small victory here or there but so far they have been abysmal.
Bottom line: Scheer can't get it through his thick skull that a 3rd party doesn't happen over night. Its going to be a long hard struggle just like womens rights, civil rights, etc. But if you keep writing it off as being impossible then you have already lost war against the business parties.

Robert Scheer says his "breaking point" with the Democratic candidate would come if he/she refuses to end the Iraq war. Well, that's their position. The top candidates now say they cannot promise to remove our soldiers from Iraq before 2013. Your move, Robert! Will you now break with the Democratic Party?
By walt, October 11, 2007 at 2:47 pm Link to this comment
Can we please get off this rhetorical merry-go-round of denial and accusation about whether Nader did or did not spoil the elections of 2000 and 2004? You guys have been arguing about this for years.
Ralph Nader has had more impact on American government and society than perhaps anyone of my generation and he did so without being a member of government.
He faced down corporations, mobilized citizens and changed everything. He is responsible for so much that has transformed our lives and which we regularly take for granted and he achieved it all without holding any public office. He was an "event" in democracy.
But now I think he's lost his edge - if not his grip on reality. It seems that as smart as he is, hes not smart enough to realize that inside the system he will be able to accomplish very little. Thats even if he could win, which is unlikely.
Truth is, outside government is where we need him and people like him occupying his old role as visionary mobilizer and defender of the common man. In government, he'll just be a target for his seething opponents. He'll get preoccupied, eventually paranoid and nothing will get done.
The Democratic Party, like the Republican Party has been hijacked by neo-con radicals. We need guys like Nader arming mobs with pitchforks outside the palace walls to energize the population and pull American government and business back to being accountable to Americans. We need a new PIRG to activate cause related politics at the local level and build democratic consciousness - just like he did years ago.
It's odd to me that Nader and his defenders who hold such animus toward our governement, seem to think that the only way to change it is to become part of it.
Seeking the Presidency is a demented folly. The truth is the best he can do, is push this election into narrow margins where voter fraud, cooked machines and a slavish Supreme Court can muck things up.
Lately, he has gotten lost in his own orthodoxy. Is it ego? I don't know. I don't much care. As to whether or not he is a spoiler, I can only ask his supporters why has he said the only condition under which he will run this time is if Hillary Clinton is the Democratic nominee? Isnt he saying by that that he IS a spoiler and will spoil it for her?
I admired him back in the day. He was a great American who had world-wide impact. He contributed something incredibly important.
Now I think he's nuts. Just plain nuts.

Nader. Clear examples. Real/Factual information.
I voted Nader. It was his run for presidency that led to my joining the GREEN PARTY.
The 2 party system does not work for the people; they work for the corporations.
Go NADER!

I can appreciate the acadmic discourse about third party candidates being a positive force for change, but emotionally, I am torn by what happened to our country with Nader's entry in 2000. The last 7 years have been a nightmare under Bush which none of us could have known at the time. I actually believed his "compassionate conservatism" BS for example. I had no idea he was such a neocon. It might have been nice if Gore had pointed that out to us voters. In defense of Nader, Gore ran a lousy campaign, and should at least have taken his own home state. Of course Monica and Bill did Gore no favors either in the critical swing states that don't swing. I like Nader a lot and think he is a decent man who likewise would not have gotten us into the Iraq debacle. But he had no chance of winning, so what was the point of his running? That said we can only hope that the Dobson-Robertson party fields an anti-choice, pro-war candidate who will immediately invade Iran and start the U.S.A. on the march to a theocracy.

If Democrats would have defended the Constituton as they should have, we wouldn't be in at war in Iraq, we wouldn't have Supreme Court Justices that we now have, we wouldn't have tax laws that make the rich richer and the poor poorer. So Robert, based on what you say, if a Democratic candidate is selected who will not promise to end the war, you say that is a deal breaker… you won't vote Democratic. So who will you vote for?

Sheer, like the Democrats and Republicans, are part of the problem, not part of the solution. Do we also blame Nader for the Mets losing out to the Phillies? This is such a tired old argument, which, sad to say, shows no signs of abating.

Democrats have to be some of the dumbest political animals in captivity.Democratic party no balls,Ralph Nader no party plenty of balls.When are the Democrats going to realize that appealing to their base as Ralph Nader does rather than going after votes they will never get is when they are going to realize big positive victories.The Republicans have been playing base politics and winning with a shitty message.The democrats have got to get over the desire to be loved by everybody and get back to being Democrats.When they let the Republicans define the L word as bad is when the democrats started Losing with a capital L.Republican conservatives waited 40 years to take power and never let the democrats make conservative a bad word.
By green, October 11, 2007 at 12:09 pm Link to this comment
Nader had more to say about the issues than Sheer. Sheer was up there to personally tear Nader down (Why all the Sheer's disclaimers that he didn't want to get 'personal' during this debate?).
The Democrats are in bed with greedy corporations that have inherent contempt for the electorate. This is an electorate that should be regulating forcefully any corporate activities that can have a significant impact on our well being.
The Democrats colluded (throug political shortsightedness) to get Bush into power and are banking on the votes that will inevitably come to them because Bush is ONLY simply incompetent and thoroughly corrupt. They'll take an easy victory from this 'opportunity' but it'll built on the rubble of what they helped destroy. They refuse to use the political capital that is gushing their way everyday by the death of the Republican party and this awful administration.
2 Parties = 50%+1 Politics forever. Ralph spoke to the issues and Sheer spoke to trying to strategize within the 50%+1 structure. The democratic leadership should be fearing nothing right now and they are. Must be their corporate handlers.
Run Ralph Run!
By Mark A. Goldman, October 11, 2007 at 12:01 pm Link to this comment
I would also add that Nader gave real arguments and specific examples of why the two parties have failed us. What kind of crimes would it take for Democrats to acknowledge that Bush and Co. deserve to be impeached? The Democrats have betrayed us every bit as much as the Repubicans. The Constitution does not provide for a two party government. We need real leaders in government… leaders who are not bought and paid for by corporate money… leaders who are more loyal to the Constitution and their oath of office than to their party. Ralph Nader would have been a better President than either of the other two candidates. Citizens should have voted for him. People like Scheer… people who won't open their minds and defend the Constitution… are the real spoilers.
By Mark A. Goldman, October 11, 2007 at 11:47 am Link to this comment
I don't agree in any way with Robert Scheer. I believe the system is broken and the Democrats are as responsible for the decline of our democracy and our culture. The fact that a third party can't make it is evidence that Democrats are as undemocratic as republicans are. Our best chance for real change is to vote for independent candidates until they win. There needs to be real competition. Nancy Pelosi betrayed her oath of office. We need people of vision and courage and we have been let down entirely by the Democrats.
By TOC, October 11, 2007 at 11:14 am Link to this comment
I find it stunning that anyone on the left would continue to spout the line that Sheer continues to spout. Playing the Least Worst Game, which the Democrats have been playing for years has only played into the hands of the right.
Nader's call for introspection is the very least that is called for.
By GDWymer, October 11, 2007 at 11:00 am Link to this comment
Are we always in this country going to cast the epithet of"spoiler" at anyone who runs a third party ticket? When is the right election to have a third party? Do we wait for the right Dem to run against the right Republican so that any third party candidate can be seen as a true participant and not a threat?
To bemoan the fact the bush was elected over Gore is crying over spilled milk. Look at how many so-called moderate voters actually believed in Bush and voted for him. Their ignorance of the kind of man he is would never have been overcome in the election. And perhaps if more citizens would express at least a little outrage over the many elctoral fraud cases that had occured in that election in Florida, Ohio and other states. Even the press for the most part simply did not investigate those crimes.
We live in imperial America and the republic has been in a state of atrophe for several generations. So few Americans even understand this. And this is partly because of a two-party exclusivity and a system that is dominated by the wealthy and the few.
Sad to say. America got what it deserved in 2000. At least all the Americans who voted for Bush. And how many Democrats voted for war? Nearly all of them. I imagine that all things must become worse and even greater tragedies must unfold in the United States before the public actually calls resoundingly for a third party.
But to think that there is not a ground swell that could be turned into a third force is to ignore the large percentage of voters who went for Perot in the 90's. At that time there were no major candidates talking about the immigration issues and trade issues and especially not America's profligate debt accumulation. Perot introduced those topics into the public forum and the national debt became a fulcrum of executive policy in the Clinton administration. I guess Perot was just another spoiler too.

Gore was the spoiler.
A bunch of them anti-citizens voted for Gore so that AT&T;not Verizon could screw them good. Serves them right, I-Raq Telecom won.

Now that the Republicans (Aka Conservative right-wingers) have castrated the Democratic Party and rigged the elections there is no need for Nader. He no longer has to divide the house. Nader is as antiquated as an ice box. (Only the old timer knows what an ice box is) Nader knows that he and all other political parties other than the Republicans (Aka Conservative right-wingers) totally for capitalism and the Democrats completely for capitalism have no chance of winning anything. All of the other parties have as much chance of winning anything as a snowball in hell. Is there something in the closet that makes Nader pursue this tactic?

"I find it difficult to forgive his arrogant, self-serving attitude regarding the spoiler thing."
As a former Republican (changed my registration yesterday so I could vote Kucinich), who voted Nader in 2000, I want to ask what Nader "spoiled?"
The typical outlandish left-wing contention that "Nader should have stepped aside" ignores the reality of the classic Nader voter, and that is Nader or no one, not Nader or Gore.
iIn a way Gore and Bush are the same… bought and paid for by the same corporate entities.
Maybe we Nader voters should be asking why Bush and Gore didn't "step aside"

One hour into the interview, and I cannot comprehend the weakness of Scheer's point and argument, I had expected better, not so as to invalidate Nader's position, but that he's so resistant to recognizing it. As Nader illustrated several times, we've been abandoned by the Democrats at this turning point that Scheer is so concerned about, so what's the point of looking to them for salvation? It is the corporate-state conglomerate that Scheer cannot recognize, nor oppose meaningfully.

Derry News
---- — Nothing wrong with town employee lunch
To the editor:
On Friday, Dec. 6, I proudly attended the Town of Derry's 15th Annual Employee Recognition Luncheon, held at the First Parish Church. The Town closed the Derry Municipal Center and Veterans Hall from 11 AM to 2 PM. The transfer station remained open.
Begun by Town Administrator Carol Granfield in 1999, the Recognition Luncheon is the only opportunity for town employees from all departments to come together. It is not a "holiday party." Town Council members are invited. Some have spoken and thanked employees for their hard work and accomplishments. The town administrator addresses the group, a meal is shared, and milestones of service to the Town are recognized. The event has been regularly budgeted and costs $3,000. Employees attend the program over their lunch period; partly on their own time and partly on the town's time.
Advance notice of the Municipal Center closing was posted on Derry Community Television, on the town's website, on the Municipal Center's door, in local newspapers and announced at Town Council meetings. To those citizens who were unaware and inconvenienced, I apologize.
Ms. Fairbanks stated that she was "saddened to say that the Derry Town Council was not only aware of this closing, but appears to have condoned it." How can she be so critical of continuing a practice that existed throughout her six years on the Town Council?
Ms. Fairbanks said: "What a blatant display of total disregard for the citizens of Derry who are forced to foot the bill for this latest excess in an economy that is still struggling."
As a past and current town councilor and long-time resident, I could not disagree more. Ms. Fairbanks' letter is a blatant display of total disregard for town employees. She places so little value on our people that she would prohibit town management from buying lunch and meeting with its employees once per year. That is grossly unreasonable.
My message to employees: I'm sorry you had to read that. You deserve better. Thank you for your performance day in and day out. Thank you for being prepared and willing and able at any time to lead our community through emergencies and disasters. I wish each and every one of you a very happy and safe holiday season and a successful new year.
Phyllis Katsakiores
Town Councilor
President Obama's appeasement weakens the nation
To the editor:
President Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry continue to promote an agenda of U.S. appeasement.
Kerry has played a leading role in formulating and implementing an agreement with Iran to temporarily put a limit on Iran's uranium enrichment program for six months. Iran can continue enriching uranium to 5 percent. In return Iran gets access to $7 billion in frozen funds, and more importantly, is able to get partial relief from the crippling burden of the economic sanctions.
Although inspectors will be monitoring the temporary agreement, Iran will probably continue a higher grade uranium enrichment program in secret facilities. As the end of the agreement approaches it can stall and hinder negotiations and ask for the continuation of six month temporary agreements until it has the nuclear weapons. Iran cannot be trusted.
While Kerry is appeasing the Iranians, Obama is busy appeasing China's power play in the East China Sea. China has declared an air defense zone and wants aircraft to notify China if aircraft enter the international air space. Japan has refused to comply with the demand, but the Obama administration has asked U.S. commercial airlines to make the notifications.
The Obama administration continues to weaken our stature in the world through unbridled appeasement.

Grinchy Republicans steal Christmas again
To the editor:
During the Christmas season giving is more important than receiving. Of course, this is easier for some than others especially when certain politicians really mean giving up is best | for others.
So much for the Republicans' Christmas spirit. No partridge for the poor but they did flip the bird to the long-term unemployed. This is on top of their demands for drastic cuts in food stamps, the denial of Medicaid to thousands, the dashing of any hope for immigration reform and multiple efforts to restrict voting rights and women's rights.
They actually believe that asking others to give up rather than receive is a gift they should appreciate. Too bad they won't give up their mean spirited sentiments.
Who needs the Grinch this year, when we have the GOP?

GNOME Shell 3.10 Is Ready To Shine On Wayland
Published on 17 September 2013 11:11 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
126 Comments
GNOME Shell 3.9.92 was released this morning as the GNOME Shell 3.10 release candidate. With this latest release of the core GNOME 3 user-interface, the Wayland branch has been merged!
All the support is now in place for the GNOME Shell to run as its own display server, support for running Wayland under gnome-session, and other prerequisites as mentioned in
this GNOME.org BugZilla entry
As covered by many Phoronix articles, the goal has been to make
the Wayland support in good shape
as an option while still supporting running the GNOME 3 desktop on an X.Org Server. There is no Mir support present in upstream GNOME.
This ongoing Wayland enablement work has not only involved alterations to the GNOME Shell but also the
Mutter window manager
GTK+ tool-kit changes
, and much more.
One of the first distributions expected to ship with GNOME 3.10 on Wayland as a technology preview
will be Fedora 20
though the default in this next Fedora Linux release will be an X.Org Server.
Aside from today's
GNOME 3.9.92 release
that merges the Wayland branch, also released today for the GNOME 3.10 Release Candidate was
Mutter Wayland 3.9.92
. The Mutter Wayland code contains the necessary support on its side for running as a Wayland compositor without a dependence on X11 or XWayland.
Among the new Mutter Wayland changes were pointer changes, support for hardware cursors, the gnome-session support, KMS monitor configuration, minimal support for resizing and maximizing Wayland clients, pop-up menu surfaces and grabs, transient hints for Wayland clients, and much more.
The final release of GNOME 3.10 is due next week Wednesday, the 25th of September, and certainly another thing to
celebrate at Phoronix@Oktoberfest

KimThought #1273
I usually set my item label display option to "push to show for 10 seconds"
but everytime i set it to this option (apply >accept) , it gets changed to regular "push to show".
this is annoying.
anyone having same problem?
Edited by KimThought#1273 on 5/7/2013 3:15 PM PDT
Same here. since the 1.08 patch, I can't change this option in the menus, and pushing ALT in-game doesn't actually do anything either. All items are labeled all the time, which is really annoying when you're used to playing without them.
I'm having the same problem. Indeed annoying.
But the Book of Cain is great, also the added number of monsters. :)
Edited by hollybee#2558 on 5/8/2013 1:04 PM PDT
I usually set my item label display option to "push to show for 10 seconds"
I am having the same problem. No matter how I change it, the loot will only show for a second or two then I have to hold down ALT to see any of it.
Lokostrike #1875
Same problem here. I always have Item Label Display set to 'Show for ten seconds', but when I logged in after updating for 1.0.8, the option was set to 'Push to Show'. Despite attempting several times to change the option, it instantly reverts to 'Push to Show'. Restarting the game client has no effect on the bug.
I appreciate that this patch has been more difficult than expected so I understand why I haven't seen any blue responses/acknowledgements of this problem. Whilst it's certainly not game breaking, it is rather annoying. An acknowledgement would be greatly appreciated.
Same issue here.
BurningRope #1322
This fix was pushed back due to the dupe fix and the drain it caused on resources.
Blizzard HAS acknowledged this. They are aware of it.
Expect it fixed tomorrow during maintenance.
We have. :)
We've developed a fix, but it's a client-side problem, so we'll need to patch (probably a fast patch) in order to resolve the issue fully. We don't have an ETA to share for when that patch will be ready to go, but we'll absolutely update the thread above once a fix is live.
SophieXoxo #1534
I was having this problem. I don't know how these options should properly work. Mine works the way I want it too now. What I did was enabled push to show on the one item option. And there was another item option to display names or not when loot drops. I disabled that. So if you're trying to achieve a setting where loot names only show up if you press alt. This is what I did.
My settings-
Display item names on drop- disabled(unchecked)
Item label display- "push to show"
Read the OP's post more carefully. Apparently the problem is with the push to show for 10 sec.
Did some testing- yes bugged. :( If you select push to show for 10 sec. or the toggle on/off option. The game automatically changes it back to normal push to show.. :p
Edited by SophieXoxo#1534 on 5/13/2013 10:58 AM PDT
ChangBooster #1510
Glad to know the fix is in the works, this bug is annoying! At the risk of sounding overly demanding, any chance it'll appear during tomorrow's maintenance?
It should. I don't see why it wouldn't.
While you're at it, how about patching in some commas into the Trade windows and the AH money fields. I'll send you chocolates if you do. :)
Omniscient #1704
We have. :)
Lylirra, you can't tell me that this http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/8796680738#3 wouldn't make you a happy person.
That's our goal. Patch is still in testing, though, since it's not a confirmation.

Just tried this but it keeps resetting my selection to push to show for 10 sec...thanks anyway
EustaceMonk #1652
I've also noticed, and I'm not sure if this is true for anyone else, but player names no longer display in game. When I'm playing with others, I have no idea who is who as the name is not displayed above the toon.
While you are fixing this bug, can you fix Inspiring Presence where the life regen numbers don't show up on you character sheet like they you use to. You say you "changed" it on purpose but seems more like a codding error with a clever excuse. Because honestly it makes no sense that would change it from how it showed up before the patch. Not having those numbers is deceiving to all those who use it and for our party members. It makes comparing gear a lot more complex then it should be.
Other than that i am very much enjoying the new patch and I'm looking forward to the new itemization features you are all working on. Keep the good changes coming Blizzard
Edited by JAMJAM22#1561 on 5/13/2013 7:59 PM PDT
i still say we need an option like diablo had: /nopickup
I'm so tired of picking up useless items while running in circles in mobs.
i still say we need an option like diablo had: /nopickup
well, it's just rediculous in COTA when you literally have 100 item labels around the slain mob and you are taking hits from a couple skelly's you can BARELY SEE!! we need /nopickup and reworking of item labal 'show timout'. Should be about 8-10 seconds and OFF with toggle for 'ON'. or just DON'T SHOW as default!

There's no crying in car line!
Just dropped my kids off for school, barely on time, and now I'm pulled over in the parking lot sobbing like a baby.

John said he'd drive us in the Lotus (I've had more practise & can now get out by myself!) into Groningen, along with Sarah, so we went to a nice pavement cafe & had a lovely meal while we watched the world go by (mostly on bikes). Steve & John managed to find their way into the red light district, and came out giggling like a pair of school girls!

... you visit the Polar Museum, you get a very in-depth display of his life and his achievements.

He had a theory that if you could left a ship just drift (at the right parallel), you would get to the North Pole. So in 1893, he had a ...

... area also had some connection with the military-perhaps for all terrain training exercises. The fact that the cycle path ran right through the area, we figured that we could get away with finding a little posi for our tent overnight. We found a discreet spot and set up for the night then set off as early as we could in the morning!
The next day we had the wind behind us which was glorious & we sailed along through many small villages & lots ...
... 8211; where did all that stuff come from? And how were we going to fit out luggage into the car??
We did a few maintenance jobs – checking the tyre pressures, replace the broken windscreen wipers, install a new auxiliary battery, replace the broken horns, replace the electrical plug on the bike carrier, picked up our repaired tent, repacked the back of the car, did a grocery restock and attempted to collect our new bicycle cover. We managed ...

CATEGORIES Movies, News/Reactions, Sci-FiHot off his kooky cameo in Predators, Morpheus himself, Laurence Fishburne, has joined the all-star cast of director Steven Soderbergh's upcoming sci-fi thriller Contagion, reports Variety.
Contagion marks the second major sf-tinged drama for Soderbergh, who remade Andrei Tarkovsky's classic Solaris in 2002 with George Clooney.
Contagion will have more in common with the filmmaker's Oscar winning drug war epic Traffic. It will follow a number of different plotlines and people reacting to the outbreak of a deadly virus. (No word if Marcel the Monkey is involved.)
A new flick from Soderbergh is always reason for excitement. A Soderbergh sci-fi thriller with Fishburne, Matt Damon, Marion Cotillard, Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow and Kate Winslet? Can. Not. Wait.
