The Batman Complex
The Batman Complex is a trailer for a fake movie which posits a very interesting question. What if Bruce Wayne wasn't Batman at all. What if he invented the entire superhero fantasy world as a way of dealing with the trauma of his murdered parents? Sounds plausible enough to me, and fortunately Christian Bale starred in another movie about paranoid schizophrenia, The Mechanic, and that footage is able to be used here for this trailer.
It's a cool idea, and even if it lost me a bit once it started merging with Inception, I'd still love to see it explored. But it's more than likely it would exist in a random offshoot alternate universe comic book series rather than a film. That would be just fine with me however. Surprise twist ending: He really is Batman and Scarecrow was just messing with him the whole time.

Christian Bale starred in the Machinist, The Mechanic is a Jason Statham movie, but the video's still very cool regardless.

Cool idea. But instead of Batman, they should have it be about 4 hot girls dressed in sexy outfits. Oh wait…

Reminds me of this fanedit I saw a while back called "Bateman Begins". Bruce Wayne/Patrick Bateman gets his training from the League of Shadows, but when he comes back to "Gotham" he goes on a killing spree killing rich executives (American Psycho). Eventually when he starts losing his mind we cut to a year later where he is really skinny and realizes the monster he has become (The Machinist). Interesting concept, the plot worked well, but in the end I couldn't get into the "fantasy" of the story because I knew I was watching scenes from 3 different films.
# MetFanMacon 01 May 2012 at 3:20 am
That is an entirely appropriate twist ending idea!
# LEMon 01 May 2012 at 7:42 am
The full trailer is way better than that one.

I like how he is buffed up then skinny, buffed up then skinny. Then goes insane.

Mars Rover Rocker-Bogie Differential
Today's is a guest post, brought to you by my father, engineer, physicist, computer programmer, and Lego, Mars, and animation enthusiast: Keith Enevoldsen. If you're not caught by the title of the post, scroll down and look at the pictures… then scroll back up and read the rest of the article because it is fascinating stuff! (P.S. He has a website full of awesome science stuff too!)
~ A l i c e !
The Rocker-Bogie
All the Mars rovers have six wheels and use a rocker-bogie suspension system to drive smoothly over bumpy ground. The rocker-bogies are easy to see in pictures of the rovers (see pictures below). There is one rocker-bogie assembly on each side of the rover. The rocker is the larger link that connects to the rover body (the chassis) in the middle (at the rocker pivot), has a wheel on the front, and connects to the bogie in the back. The bogie is the smaller link that connects to the rocker in the middle (at the bogie pivot), and has wheels at both ends. Each of the six wheels has its own motor.
The Differential
It is not so easy to see and understand how the rocker-bogie mechanism keeps the body level. What prevents the rover body from tipping all the way forward or backward around the rocker pivots? If you build a model rover and you attach the rockers to the body with an axle or two pivot pins, the body will tip forward or backward until it hits the ground! In the real rovers the two rockers connect to each other and to the body through a mechanism called a differential. The differential is what keeps the body level. Relative to the body, when one rocker goes up, the other rocker goes down. Relative to the ground, the body angle is halfway between the angles of the two rockers. That's cool, but how does it work? The different rovers use different mechanisms: a differential gearbox or a differential bar.
Differential Gearbox
Mars Pathfinder (Sojourner) and Mars Exploration Rovers (Spirit and Opportunity) use differential gearboxes.
The gearbox is inside the rover body, so you never see it. No wonder it is hard to figure out how it works! In my Lego model rover shown here, I use a simple three-gear differential. Two gears connect to the two rockers and the third (middle) gear connects to the body. If you hold the model rover body steady in midair and tilt one rocker up, the gears will turn and the other rocker will tilt down (see the animations below).
The real Mars Exploration Rovers use more complicated gearboxes with more gears but they are functionally equivalent to this simple three-gear differential.
Differential Bar
The Mars Science Laboratory (Curiosity) uses a differential bar. This is the big black bar that you see across the deck of the rover.
The middle of the bar is connected to the body with a pivot and the two ends are connected to the two rockers through some short links. If you hold the model rover body steady in midair and tilt one rocker up, one end of the bar will go back, the other end will go forward, and the other rocker will tilt down (see the animations below).
The Mars Exploration Rovers did not use a differential bar because it would interfere with the solar panels. But the Mars Science Laboratory does not have that problem because it is nuclear powered and has no solar panels.

No Springs
The rocker-bogie mechanism has no springs. The absence of springs helps it keep all six wheels on the ground with approximately equal pressure on each wheel. This is a good thing when you are driving on sand!

I hope you enjoyed my dad's post. He sure had fun figuring out those mechanisms and creating them out of Lego!
I'll be posting a Curiosity-landing-"watching" event here very soon.

Another take from the internet:
I'd like to thank Emily Lakdawalla for her help. I had emailed her a photo of one of my earlier Lego rovers and said I knew something was missing from my rocker bogie mechanism, but I couldn't figure out what. She supplied me with the key word "differential".
this made getting it so much easire! thank you
Actually your differential does not look so "simplified"!
Thanks for gathering this information, LEGO is a great way to show how the suspension works!
You mention that Sojourner used a differential gearbox but it looks to me like it used a differential bar, see this image: http://er.jsc.nasa.gov/seh/marspathrov.jpg
The only mention of the differential I've found for Sojourner is in this text (http://www.mit.edu/~ykuroda/research/iSAIRAS99-M5SUS.pdf) where they suggest it used a differential bar.
Pluto is correct and I was incorrect. The Pathfinder rover photo http://er.jsc.nasa.gov/seh/marspathrov.jpg clearly shows a thin differential bar pivoted under the solar panel.
Alice, please correct the post in two places. First, strikeout "Mars Pathfinder (Sojourner)" from the sentence about gearboxes. Second, correct the caption on the photo of my Lego rover with a gearbox. It's not Pathfinder (Sojourner), it's MER (Spirit and Opportunity). It looks like Pathfinder because I removed the solar wings for this photo so you can see both the rocker-bogie and the (simplified) gearbox.
Yes MER definitely used differential gears, there's plenty of documents around describing how their suspension works, like this one: http://trs-new.jpl.nasa.gov/dspace/bitstream/2014/37604/1/05-1950.pdf
And just to make it more confusing "Rocky 7″, I think the last development prototype rover before Sojourner was built, used differential gears too rather than a diff bar, at least according to this: https://www-robotics.jpl.nasa.gov/publications/Richard_Volpe/iros96.pdf

Orioles third baseman Manny Machado has been suspended for five games and fined for intentionally throwing his bat on the field during Sunday's game against Oakland.
Barring an appeal, the suspension will begin with Tuesday night's game against visiting Boston.
Machado let his bat fly in the direction of third base after swinging at a pitch from Oakland's Fernando Abad in the eighth inning. The bat-toss came during a plate appearance in which Abad threw a tight pitch to Machado.
After the bat went soaring, both benches emptied. Machado and Abad were ejected.
It was the second time in three days that the 22-year-old Machado lost his temper. On Friday night, he screamed in the face of Oakland third baseman Josh Donaldson after being tagged in the chest.

The Impact on the Pricing Process of Costly Active Management and Performance Chasing Clients
AbstractOne of the necessary features of markets to produce efficient pricing is competition between information-based investors who quickly impound new information into price. However, a signifficant proportion of funds invested in today's equity markets are in the hands of managers who pursue a style that utilises little or none of the available information. We simulate such a market where the funds are being managed using the following three investment styles: fundamental, momentum and index. We confirm that the major pricing anomalies that have been highlighted previously in the literature are a natural consequence of competition between managers utilising these three investment styles. More importantly, we show that this situation is unlikely to change as long as markets continue to be dominated by costly active managers with clients who pursue outperformance.

Gossypol, a polyphenolic compound which depletes cellular energy by inhibition of several intracellular dehydrogenases, has been shown to have antiproliferative activity against human glial tumor cell lines in vitro and in nude mouse xenografts. Human trials of gossypol as a male contraceptive have demonstrated safety of long-term administration. We studied the activity of Gossypol 10 mg PO bid in 27 patients with pathologically confirmed glial tumors which had recurred after radiation therapy. Fifteen patients had glioblastoma, 11 patients anaplastic astrocytoma, 1 patient relapsed low grade glioma. Response was assessed every 8 weeks using CT/MRI scan and clinical criteria including decadron requirement. Treatment was continued until disease progression. Two patients had partial response (PR); 4 had stable disease for 8 weeks or more. One patient maintained a PR with improved KPS for 78 weeks. The other had a PR lasting 8 weeks. Toxicity was mild: 2 heavily pretreated patients had mild thrombocytopenia, 5 patients developed hypokalemia, 3 patients developed grade 2 hepatic toxicity and peripheral edema. Gossypol levels measured by HPLC did not correlate with response or toxicity in this study.
We conclude that gossypol is well tolerated and has a low, but measurable, response rate in a heavily pretreated, poor-prognosis group of patients with recurrent glioma. The presumed novel mechanism of action, lack of significant myelosuppression, and activity in patients with advance glioma support further study of gossypol as an antineoplastic agent.

Magnum XL-200 reviews
Theme Park Insider readers offer their ratings and reviews for Magnum XL-200, a roller coaster at Cedar Point. (The minimum height to ride is 48 inches.)
Written by Robert Niles
Built by Arrow Dynamics, this was the worlds first hyper-coaster, and still the one with the best retro-dork cool name. With a 205-foot tall first hill and top speed of 72 mph, it made its debut in 1989 and soon after attained "legend" status.
Readers' rating:
Great ride. Really great. This coaster quickly became one of my favorites at the park. Good speed, good air, great views, and a fast moving line make for a terrific coaster experience. Honestly, with a much better throughput and a great ride experience, I might even prefer Magnum over Millennium Force.... 9-Outstanding. - James Rao
This coaster had amazing airtime! Definetly one of my favorites! - Nick Mitchell
After 25 years, this ride has held up pretty well. Like others have mentioned, the wrong positioning of the lap bars can lead to some pretty bad thigh pain on the airtime hills near the end. Also, the back cars gave us a pretty rough ride this year - lots of bumping around on the turns and bunny hills. We found the front and middle of the train to provide the best rides. Maybe it's sacrilegious to suggest this, but I'd like to see new trains on Magnum. The whole ride - especially those bunny hills - would be even more awesome with Intamin or B&M trains. - Roger S
If you were to ride Magnum or any other Arrow hyper and then a B&M, the B&M would seen much, much better because of the seating. The lap bars on Magnum are really low like the bottom part of a seat belt in a car so if you're not a hands up person there's literally nothing good to hold on to. In the next 10 years, though it may sound dumb, I'd love to see a redesign on the trains with seats that lean back a little like B&M and better lap bars. Magnum is still a good, maybe great coaster with tons of airtime, and plus, there's never really a line. It's certainly something you can't skip. - Bradley Keith
Magnum XL-200 was the first ride i rode that topped 205 feet i just went to the park in may i went with three of my freinds and let me say the worst part was the time it took to get up i remember that my freind started crying once we got to the top we exchanged are goodbyes and went down the feeling in yourstomach was amazing and then all of a sudden ur at the top of another hill heading down and speeding up! then its pitch black and some great air time then u reach the pretzel turn and that was the part we me and my freinds said ! that was good! but it wasnt over as we go into another dark space we get more airtime and the rest of the ride is reletively smooth but still keeps u smiling this is one of the best coasters in cedar point - ed shaheen
A great ride that everyone can enjoy. Has a great first hill and plenty of airtime. I will admit though that you need to try and make sure the the lap bar is as lightly tightened as possible because if it is too tight trust me it will hurt but even if you do get a little banged up it still is a great ride and is my fifth favorite coming behind the Raptor, Dragster, Maverick, and Millennium. 9/10 - Shayne Nissen
This is an INSANE airtime machine but far too rough at the end. I don't like ejector airtime especially when it is this painful. Thankfully the short lines, great beginning and long duration save this rougher ride from becoming a bad ride. It is the 4th best Cedar Point roller coaster and the 7th best I've ever ridden. Must ride. 9/10 - Edward Morgan

Interrogation in Telavi – Questioning about Family Members, Their Whereabouts, Income…
According to supporters of Georgian Dream, Chamber of Control inquired about their family situation and income of family members during the interrogation.
"At first I wrote how many members my family had, who helped me with finances. They did not specifically ask how much we earned but asked in general how we supported the family. They also asked what we were going to do in future. I told them it was my business," – supporter of Georgian Dream Natia Bitskinashvili stated to Kakheti Information Center. According to her, she was searched in a separate room before the interrogation.
"They inquired who the family members are, where they are, what their income is and etc. They requested to tell them and I did. I did not have anything to hide. They did not explain why they needed this information, just asked a question and I answered," – member of Free Democrats Bidzina Jokhadze noted.
On the second floor of Telavi municipality local government Chamber of Control has been interrogating supporters of Georgian Dream since morning.

Technology for Sale
AbstractFree trade commodities has often been considered to lead to the optimum allocation of resources between countries. If factor returns are not equalized by such trade, further gains can be obtained by allowing national factors access to world markets. But if technology, in the form of blueprints, is different between countries, sale of gifts of such technology form advanced to less advanced countries can lead to further gains. Indeed, in the Recardian model developed in this paper the only asymmetry between countries that would affect relative pries in technology, so that if transfers are allowed, the basis for commodity trade is removed (except for any payments for technology tranfer or bribes to persuade recipients to adpt the superior technology).

RPI continues to win, faces No. 8 Hobart on Saturday
1 Comment · Posted by Jim Matson in Uncategorized
Maybe the Top 25 voters missed one. RPI continues to quickly roll along and win matches, now at 6-0-1 on the season. The Engineers received votes in the last Top 25 poll and just missed the 25th spot.
The Engineers defeated Hamilton on Friday evening 1-0. This team has not allowed a goal all season, which is an impressive stat no matter who one plays. But the strength of schedule variable in this equation might the reason that RPI still hasn't broke through into the poll.
All that changes with today's match against tough No. 8 Hobart. A win against the Statesmen would go a long way to alleviating any doubts about the Engineer's strength. It won't be easy.

In a miraculous event, nobody was harmed when a schoolbus went hurtling into a creek in Douglas, Kansas, around 4 p.m. on October 31, reports The Associated Press.
Investigators are still piecing together what happened, but a sixth-grader on board, Logan Parker, said, "[we] hit a couple of bumps and then we fell into the water. The driver was shaking and a lot of people were screaming and crying. The lesson here is not to drive through water."
The driver credited the actions of the children as the reason nobody was harmed.
The 10 students onboard plus the driver all survived, escaping through the roof hatch.

Daniel Henney is personable as Sam, and Eliza Coupe is even more so as Amanda. Daniel Hsia wrote and directed with agility, and he makes sure that his story doesn't get in the way of his presentation of the city.
Though Mr. Hsia, a television alumnus who also wrote the script, has created a somewhat predictable story infused with stereotypes old and new, he gains mileage from light humor, buoyant energy and some appealing performers.
Shanghai Calling doesn't aspire to fresh insight, let alone profundity. But it's nice to see the American migration narrative get out of the house for some fresh air.
A clear affection for its subject and setting help deepen Daniel Hsia's otherwise shallow romantic comedy.
It's a sharp setup - a rich American learns what it's like to be steamrolled by unfettered capitalism - but the script cushions things completely.
Henney's lanky appeal as he tries to cope with an avalanche of language and cultural challenges is a pleasure to watch.
Offbeat scenarios, a fresh backdrop and warm performances enliven this vibrant, surprising, Chinese-shot treat, a fun cross-cultural romantic comedy with echoes of Jerry Maguire.
If you prefer your social commentary in the form of a glorified sitcom with broad humor and even broader caricatures, look no further.
Light mainstream feature has enough charisma and cultural observations -- but only just
Audience Reviews for Shanghai Calling
Super Reviewer
The film stars American Korean Daniel Henney as Sam, an attorney from New York City. Sam is sent to China by his employer with no knowledge of the local language and customs. The culture clash is huge and he tries to tackle it but with no success - we are witnessing his embarrassing encounters with locals as he tries to understand how things work in China. Eliza Coupe plays his relocation specialist and later Sam's romantic interest. The cast includes Geng Le and Zhu Zhu but even with them the acting is bellow average.
The main problem of this movie is that comes out as a kind of a cross cultural romcom with nothing behind it! You could say that there is semi-cute romance and lightweight comedy but the thing you'll remember is that the director is really trying hard taking his time to highlight the virtues of China in general and the city of Shanghai in particular.
This official US-China co-production is like some kind of advertising designed to appeal to both Asian and Western audiences... but talking with my friends from both sides - wasn't very successful doing it!
Super Reviewer
- Sam: China's going to be a great place once it's finished.

Alexander Linklater: Gus himself points out that if he wasn't mentally ill, he should have gone to prison; maybe eight or nine years. Would he have preferred that?
Experience:It was a fight to get the help he needed. He didn't receive an exact diagnosis, though the problem was self-evident
Alexander Linklater: Speaking was, for him, like walking a tightrope, only to discover, halfway along, that your laces were untied.
Linking artistic genius and insanity is a romantic folly - isn't it? Alexander Linklater delves into the sources of creativity in light of a new exhibition.
Lee Galpin took an unconventional route into his career as a firefighter. The only member of his Kent village to have gone on to higher education, he began his professional life in the 1970s as an actor and writer. Getting regular work in his 20s, he might have continued down that path had he not been knocked sideways by a period of depression after writing a historical drama for Radio 4.
Alexander Linklater: Three years ago, preparing for the most serious suicide attempt of her life, Lauren Shear had to work through a psychological routine.
Alexander Linklater: A characteristic that Richard does feel he learned from his father was an obsession with manners - a hallmark of the charm he bore through the shoplifting, gang-fighting, drug-taking, sexual promiscuity and mental collapses of his early youth.
Alexander Linklater: Susan became the source of an exploration into five generations of their Glaswegian relatives and Irish ancestry, navigated by a minute chromosomal clue.
Social anxiety receives less sympathy than perhaps any psychological disorder short of its opposite, sociopathy
If they look back, neither Ben, aged 51, nor Suzie, 31, ever imagined they might one day be happily married.
Alexander Linklater: It might seem clear enough that Greg Day's problems began as a result of being abandoned by his mother.
Alexander Linklater: Though the west of Ireland has some of the highest rates of mental illness in the world, Niall's family still managed to draw its unfair share.
Alexander Linklater: The time in her life that Clare Allan felt safest was at university, in the cathedral town of Durham, which appeared to her like a magical stage set.
Alexander Linklater: It was when his employers decided to move headquarters to Merseyside that Stuart Carter, then in his late 50s, reckoned it was time to retire.
Alexander Linklater: The TV series Child of Our Time has little useful to say about the nature vs nurture debate.

James Harrison has been one of the better defensive players over the last decade or so, but his production has dropped off in recent seasons, which led to his release by the Pittsburgh Steelers when he declined to restructure his contract. Still, that's not stopping Harrison's agent, Bill Parise, from trying to drum up interest.
According to NOLA.com, Parise has suggested that Harrison would be a "great fit," for the New Orleans Saints. Then, according to the Baltimore Sun, Parise suggested that Harrison is interested in joining the Baltimore Ravens. Parise also called Baltimore a "great fit."
When talking about the Ravens, Parise specifically noted that the Ravens will need Harrison due to the "market for Kruger," referring to outside linebacker Paul Kruger. It's likely that Kruger is going to get a big contract once free agency opens, and it's unlikely that the Ravens will be able to afford him under the current salary cap.
Of course, there's nothing actually linking the Ravens to Harrison aside from Parise suggesting it would be a good fit. It does seem to make sense given the need at linebacker for the Ravens, but given that Harrison's production led to him netting just six sacks in 2012, he would definitely be a step down for Baltimore.
As far as the Saints are concerned, they could definitely have a need for Harrison. New Orleans is making a switch to the 3-4 defense and they may or may not have the personnel to do so. Junior Galette will likely be one outside linebacker after agreeing to a new contract on Saturday, but the other spot might be open.
Currently, it looks like it could go to Martez Wilson, but he's not been much of a pass rusher thus far in his career, and many have felt that he belongs in the middle. Harrison could either battle with Wilson for that starting spot, or he could be a reliable backup in the case that either player doesn't pan out in the new defensive scheme.

• NFL mock draft: Changes on the eve of free agency
• Cowboys still over the salary cap
• Anquan Boldin expected to fight Ravens on pay cut
• Just how powerful is Roger Goodell?
• Are advanced stats good for fans?

Meeting with my long time friend/more surprises
Today I met up with Hayline for lunch in Port Louis. She is my best long time school friend. It was really nice to see her and to catch up with her especially when we have kept in touch during all those years especially now with Skype. Unfortunately lunch was a bit rushed as we had to close the shop early and go back home for an outing with Andre and Helene. But we'll meet again another day. Lunch was at a noodles ...

Two careers, twenty years in the Air Force as a navigator in cargo planes and twenty years at a Technology School as a teacher of computers, repair, programming and use. When I retired for the second time, I decided to make my third career World Traveler. I've been to a lot of places in the Air Force and more as a tourist, and I plan to continue for as long as I can. My next tours, Insha' Allah, will be Thailand and Cambodia, followed by China, Namibia, Italy and Dalmatia, and Tunisia. I enjoy taking pictures and working with them on my Mac. Bookmaking is fun for me; my first was in 1958!

BANNED BOOKS WEEK ends today September 30th. It runs every last week of September every year since 1982. The reason for the event according to the American Library Association is to remind Americans not to take democratic freedom for granted.
"BBW celebrates the freedom to choose or the freedom to express ones opinion even if that opinion might be considered unorthodox or unpopular and stresses the importance of ensuring the availability of those unorthodox or unpopular viewpoints to all who wish to read them. After all, intellectual freedom can exist only where these two essential conditions are met." ALA
It should be noted, that this is the week that Library associations try to make known the books that have been challenged by others for various reasons to be banned from public libraries. Usually, they are challenged for the best of intentions difficult ideas and information. Censorship takes many forms, subtle or obvious and a challenge to a book is an attempt to remove the books from the library not just from the person challenging, but from the public as a whole. So the positive message from the ALA is that "Free People Read Freely due to the commitment of librarians, teachers, parents, students and other concerned citizens, most challenges are unsuccessful and most materials are retained in the school curriculum or library collection."
In case you are wondering, the top 10 authors challenged from 1990 to 2004 were : Alvin Schwartz, Judy Blume, Robert Cormier, J.K. Rowling, Michael Willhoite, Katherine Paterson, Stephen King, Maya Angelou, R.L Stine, and John Steinbeck.
I dont know about you guys, but as an avid book reader, I can vouch for more than just a few of these authors, including some guilty pleasures for plain and simple summertime reading (Where would I be without my Harry Potter books or Stephen King epics?). So as a typical red blooded, book reading American who likes his choices to run rampant in a book store or library depending on what mood he is in . Thanks ALA.

Hi Population2, Nice theme. Can you send me some info on how to slow down the slideshow images on the front page. Thanks.
Also, I am using the Sermon Browser plugin to display my sermons but the page that it create is real messy – the frames are gray, some of the info is missing and the flash player does not load on the page – yours is the only theme that this occur on. Don't have any idea why.
Hey loswl,
Could you send me the URL so I can take a look?
You can edit the slideshow time in the easyslider.js. Find the "speed" parameter and adjust the value.
Hi, Thank you for a great theme.
I'd like to use different cufon font. I already uploaded a cufon font I am going to use.
I know I need to add some codes like this:
Cufon.replace('h1?, { fontFamily:'Bradley Hand ITC TT ' , fontWeight:400 , hover: true }); Cufon.replace('h2?, { fontFamily:'NanumGothic' , fontWeight:400 , hover: true }); Cufon.replace('h3?, { fontFamily:'NanumGothic' , fontWeight:400 , hover: true });
Where should I put these codes?
Hi Deeptree,
It's at the last line of init.js. Let me know if that doesn't work.
I need to change a font for menus.
Add .sf-menu class in that init.js where you put the cufon codes.
creating text links in footer is not displaying correctly. backslashes "\" are automatically inserted…...?? help?
Hi Hellotiffy,
Could you give the URL to your site? I'll take a look
it's okay, i just hard coded it.
another question… how do i limit the number of blog posts displayed on the home page?
Change the showpost number in site_home.php
<?php query_posts("category_name=$cat_tab_1&showposts=4"); ?>
I am having the same problem as loswl, with the Audio Player not loading.
Hi ukao,
Can you give me the URL to your site so I can take a look?
I love how SandeeJ at morrisbrownonline.org removed the 3 tabs on the front page and replaced them with text. Can you share with me how I can accomplish this?
If you look at the site_home.php there are some code like this:

<?php the_time('M j'); ?>

<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?>

Add <?php the_content('Read more…'); ?> right after H4.
The second menu in the upper right hand corner has a margin in between it and the top border on the homepage. but not on any of the pages. Do you know how to fix this?
The site is: http://www.nmbchurch.org
It looks like there is a div tag doesn't close properly. I can look it up if you share me access to wp-admin.
What is really strange is that it only seems to be happening in Firefox. I reloaded the theme again (1.1 version) and it is still the same
Hi andertrack, please check all the div tag in the site_home.php.
It only happen on the homepage. I can send you a new copy if you want.
That would be great if you could send me a new copy. Thanks
You were absolutely right about the div tag. It was in the text widget for prayer requests. I did not close one of the tags there and Firefox did not like that apparently.
This was my mistake, this is really a great theme and very easy to work with!
Thank you for making a wonderful theme available.
Here is my question:
How can I add comment on archive pages?
Disqus is installed and working correctly on posts?
But on archive pages, disqus gives just a link for opening a post.
I tried <?php comments_template(); ?>, but doesn't work at all. (nothing shows up)
Currently, I'm using <?php comments_popup_link('); ?>
What do I have to do if I want a full functioning comment system on archive pages?
thank you
You need to add the <?php comments_template(); ?> within the loop, it's somewhere in line 23 before <?php endwhile; ?>. But that will make the page show comment form after each archive posts. I'm not sure if that's what you want to do. Read this http://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-comments-to-archivephp
I guess I put <?php comments_template(); ?> within the loop. But it doesn't work.
I'd like to show sermon update posts with comments. To do so, I need either one (1) A link for the most recent sermon post is added to a header menu for sermon. (To me it is impossible)
(2) All posts related to sermons put into sermon category. And the sermon achieve page is linked to a header menu.
Compare these http://www.newsongdc.org/sermons/20101017victory/ http://www.newsongdc.org/category/sermons/
Would you do me a favor? If I send you my archive.php, would you look it up for me? Thank you so much.
I still don't get it. Why don't you create a new page, for instance sermons page. In that page it only shows all the posts from sermons category. The nav link will go to that sermons page that will shows the sermons as posts. Is that doesn't work for you?
Actually the #1 is possible. You can use Custom Menu feature in Wordpress. Instead link to the sermons page, you can link it to the latest sermons page. But you need to update manually the nav link every time you have a new post. You may be able to do it with query, but I don't know the code off top my head.
Thank you.
Now I am using pages instead of categories.
This page was so helpful
Looking good. I like the 1st slide image you have there.
Just out of my curiosity, are you Korean?
Awesome theme I must say.
I am developing my church's new look website which is currently in a woeful state and quite embarrassing to be honest. This theme will really be something different for the people that use it regularly and I can't wait to launch it but I need a bit of help tying a few loose ends up.
How can I get the menu items (and sub-menu items) to NOT wrap. I would like them to either span the full width of the Navigation Label, or at least set a larger width for each menu item (and sub-menu item).

Hi Rob,
Thank you for purchasing this theme. First let me ask you how comfortable are you with CSS ? Everything you mentioned above can be done by modifying the CSS . I can walk you through it once you have it installed.
Yes I am comfortable with CSS . I had a look at the menu section in style.css, but was a little unsure of what section required modificatio n.
If you could step me through it that would be great.
the tabs don't display =child categories. how do i fix that?
since the code for the tabs is
for example- if i choose news as a tab category. it will not display "events" even though it is a child category of news...
<?php echo $cat_tab_2 ?>
i think the edit has to be in the functions.php but i don't know where.
Never mind about the child categories
If you use a category name with spaces – like News and Media – the tabs may not work properly
my fix? change the tab code from
nope that doesn't work either
Is the category name is identical with category slug?
no i had "news & media" and the slug was news-medi
i changed it to news and media (slug: news-and-media)
that seems to work…
pre-purchase question. what fonts do you use in this template? Important to know because I wanna use it with cyrillic and would like to find out if cyrillic versions of these fonts are available.
I use Bebas for heading and OptimusPrinceps for the logo.
the theme is great…its just my posts aren't showing up on the home page in the categories i have on the three taps. i have them directed to the three appropriate categories in the admin and have those categories check on each post…let me know how to troubleshoot. thanks heaps!
opps…wrong account…i have two accounts:
the theme is great…its just my posts aren't showing up on the home page in the categories i have on the three taps. i have them directed to the three appropriate categories in the admin and have those categories check on each post…let me know how to troubleshoot. thanks heaps!
Make sure that the category name is identical with category slug.
I can't seem to get the theme to work. I have tried to load it via the WP-Admin and the FTP . I just can't get it to load either way.
Nvm. lol. I redownloaded it and it went through. Thanks! Wonderful theme!!
Awesome! Thank you for purchasing.
I just added "Contact Form 7" widget to the site, and it disabled the scroll on the front page. I have the widget disabled right now, but if I enable it, the image scroll on the home page folds down with all the images at once. Any advice?
Hi Matt,
Can you try it again now? I just fixed your header.php.
I dont see controls on the slideshow. In easySlider1.7.js controlsShow: true, even then I dont see it. Is there anyway to do it? Also, when i click on Events tab, I see google map pop up window for 2-3 seconds and then my page appears.
Any help?
Try to uncomment controlsBefore and controlsAfter in hte init.js. See if it works.
Thank you!! It worked.
Love your template. I had a couple quick questions. I would like to change a little bit of the graphical look of the site. I started by re-doing the texture bg image…but it does not fill the whole background. You can see what I mean at www.energiaemocional.com/wordpress
I also am trying to get a google map for wordpress plug in to work..but it wont display. Any ideas..I looked through the developers forum but no luck finding answers.\ \ thanks in advance,
Change the body rule in the CSS to background url("img/texture-bg.jpg") repeat-x scroll center top #799BB6
Regarding the google maps, could you shar me the wp-admin access? I'll take a look.

Advantage Lochowicz & Pottharst
SANTA PONSA, MALLORCA, July 9, 2004 - With a 21-18, 20-22 and 15-10 win over fifth-seeded Andrea Ahmann and Jana Vollmer of Germany here Friday morning, Summer Lochowicz and Kerri Pottharst have gained the advantage in the race for the second Australian women's berth in the 2004 Athens Olympic Games.
While the fourth-seeded Lochowicz and Pottharst were posting their 55-minute win to guarantee a fifth-place finish this week in the US$360,000 Mallorca Open, top-seeded Juliana Felisberta Silva and Larissa Franca of Brazil were scoring a 21-18 and 21-16 victory over eighth-seeded Angela Clark and Kylie Gerlic of Australia.
With the win, Lochowicz and Pottharst increased their Olympic qualifying point total to 1,248 to move ahead of Clarke and Gerlic's 1,192-point total for their best eight finishes on the SWATCH-FIVB World Tour since the start of the qualification process in January 2003.
For Clarke and Gerlic, the challenge is to catch their Aussie rivals by winning at least two-straight elimination matches Friday afternoon to tie Lochowicz and Pottharst's guaranteed fifth. If Lochowicz and Pottharst defeat Felisberta and Larissa, Clarke and Gerlic will have to win three-straight elimination matches starting with a meeting with 19th-seeded Ethel-Julie Arjona and Virginie Kadjo of France, who defeated the 27th-seeded Yanchulova sisters (Lina and Petia) of Bulgaria to open their schedule Friday.
Arjona and Kadjo need to win the match with the Aussies to keep Olympic hopes "alive." The Yanchulovas are currently ranked 23rd on the Athens list with 1,100 points while Arjona and Kadjo are 12 points behind at 1,088 points. Also in the chase for an Olympic berth are Milagros Crespo and Imara Esteves Ribalta (1,044 points). The 21st-seeded Cubans play 14th-seeded Vasso Karadassiou/Efi Sfyri of Greece in their first match Friday.
The women's Mallorca Open ends with Saturday's morning semi-finals followed by the afternoon medal matches were the championship team shares the $27,000 first-place prize. The fourth of five-straight mixed gender events, the men's Mallorca Open Draw began Friday and the finals Sunday. After the Mallorca stop, the SWATCH-FIVB World Tour concludes the string of mixed gender events with the annual stop in Marseille, France (July 13-18).

Shows that did not deserve to end or get canceled. (9 tv items)
"First off did this really air in 2012, thought it was 2011 but anyway this show was hilarious but it got canceled after about 2 episodes those episodes I did see were brilliant. To me it got canceled because of the nature of the show, not the ratings even though the ratings were absolute rubbish. The only bad thing was maybe it didn't come across as well as it wanted too with what it was about, I mean this show was badly slated, but the thing is why would ABC wanted to have picked it up to serie"

"Now, Work It is hilarious. I don't see how it's being offense in anyway, I just don't think people are giving this show chance. It gets average amount of viewers, so I don't think they would cancel it because of ratings but because its been getting negative review I think they will cancel it because of that which is unfair to the people who want to watch it. I think it's only 20 minutes to watch and sit through so it is not wasting my time anyway. I adore the cast and I think they act okay. I mean I bet it takes a lot for the two main guys to make a fool out of themselves and dress like women in this, it's funny and I hope if maybe it gets canceled they will air them somewhere else, online or youtube. Even so, I don't care I enjoy this show even if other people don't." read more
