Hey Maxim,
I have couple questions about your theme.
If I buy this theme, can I use any kind of shopping chart? for example
The login: Do the information included in the documentation how to set up client login??? is there a way I can set up a page in your theme where a client can pay for their bill?
Jarvis Jacobs
Hi Jarvis,
This HTML&CSS version don't have pages with shopping chart.
Please, look at WordPress Version of this Theme: http://themeforest.net/item/synoptic-premium-wordpress-template/234600
And what can I ask you about you question for WordPress version:
To use our theme as it is we do not need to use any plugins. We have included all functions in our theme. We have no shopping cart. But if you want, from admin panel you can disable our market, sign in and sign up features and install any plugins and use them and customize the theme as you want.
Best regards, Maxim Silenkov.
Is the drop down select menu suppose to show the item select? Also, it doesn't loose focus when you click where else on the page.
Are these expected behaviors?
Yes this is the expected result. Can see how it is implemented in the WP version.
Best Regards, Maxim Silenkov
Header menu and some text links not displaying properly in ie9. Please update, thanks.
Please replace this file: http://d.pr/W45k
Best Regards, Maxim Silenkov
The HTML /CSS Header menu and some text links not displaying properly in ie9. What do I need to do?
Hey Maxim,
I just read the comment before mine…I do not understand what you mean replace the file"http://d.pr/W45k" to what? I try clicking on the link u sent to the user but I'm not quite.
Please, try again replace file.

Nintendo to reveal tons of Pokemon X and Y info during E3
Nintendo recently had a pretty big reveal for Pokemon X and Y, but ultimately, a few creature showcases in the grand scheme of things isn't a whole lot. In fact, up until now we've just gotten bits and pieces of X and Y at biweekly or monthly intervals, which helps add a teaser element to the entry.
There's just one problem -- the game is set to come out in October, so Nintendo probably needs to give us a bit more info before then. Well, it seems as if Nintendo will rectify this issue on June 11, as it's going to host an hour-and-a-half roundtable with Game Freak developers, which should yield a ton of info on X and Y.
If you've been waiting for more info on Pokemon outside of drip-fed Japanese scan leaks, sit tight until E3.

Re "Courageous few step up to aid child, teen victims" (Viewpoints, Ashley Snee Giovannettone, Dec. 8): Today, there are a lot of cases of sex trafficking happening in society around us. It has become a serious issue that needs to be addressed. To help raise awareness, I have participated in events and organizations, such as the Run for Courage and the Women of Worth club at Oak Ridge High School. I hope my efforts will help decrease the number of people who fall victim to the sex trafficking business. By joining together, we can all help make a difference in the lives of the many women, men and children who have had to endure these tragic events.

ITV News Central: FGM special investigationby Emma Burrows
An ITV News Central special investigation has found British girls are regularly being taken abroad to be subjected to female genital mutilation (FGM), even though the practice is illegal.
FGM is a common practice in Somalia and in many parts of eastern and central Africa for girls between four and ten years old, although it can happen to girls who are much younger or older.
A recent report by the New Culture Forum suggests that around 170,000 British girls and women are living with the effects of FGM.
FGM has been illegal in the UK since 1985. It is also illegal to take a British citizen abroad to have it done and can carry a punishment of up to 14 years in prison.
The practice involves either the partial or full removal of a woman's external genitalia for non-medical reasons, often with no anaesthetic. In its most severe form it involves sewing up the wound that is left behind, leaving behind only a small opening through which the woman can urinate or menstruate.
Siham, a 20-year-old student from Birmingham, was seven and growing up in Somalia when she came home from school one day and was told to have a shower. Her mother was working abroad in Kenya to pay for her education and she was coming back to visit. At least, that is what her relatives told her. Instead she was subjected to a brutal ritual which scarred her physically and emotionally.
– Siham
Some people held each leg and my shoulders down and my arms on either side of me. It is the most painful pain you will ever experience. There's no anaesthetics, there's nothing. You feel every little cut that that person does to you and it's not something that can just leave your brain, it's there with you for the rest of your life.
Although there is evidence of FGM happening in the UK, no-one has ever been prosecuted for carrying it out. Siham told ITV News Central that girls are usually taken abroad to have it done.
– Siham
It happens on a daily basis. You haven't got anyone telling what you should or shouldn't do. Who's going to check you? If I hadn't had it done, I could have just gone back this summer or last summer and no-one would be any the wiser. So, yes, it's against the law but I don't feel like it's one of those laws that's implemented.
Sometimes a woman may not realise she has been mutilated and it often only becomes apparent when she has a baby.
– Alison Byrne, specialist FGM midwife, Heartlands Hospital
It's definitely increasing; the numbers have trebled at this trust [Heart of England] since the start of the service in 2002. It's averaging about five to six women a week. It has a very deeply rooted traditional cultural aspect that, sometimes, when I question the women about it they don't even know why it's been done. But sometimes it's done to protect promiscuity, to increase marriageability in countries where there's poverty and famine and where families die.
The UK's track record on FGM is not good. Even though there is a specific law against it in the UK, no-one has ever been prosecuted for it even though cases have been investigated. In France, where there is no particular law against FGM, unlike the UK, there have been more than 100 prosecutions under general legislation.
However, the tide may be turning. Recently a petition asking the UK government to implement a national action plan to stop FGM gained more than one hundred thousand signatures, meaning it will be debated in parliament. Equally, a government select committee inquiry is investigating why there have not been any prosecutions for FGM in almost 30 years. It is being supported by the Home Office.
– Norman Baker MP
We want prosecutions to be frank. We estimate there are tens of thousands of women who have been abused in this way and it's not satisfactory for there to be no prosecutions in 28 years. Is it a question for example of reluctance to give evidence against family members? If so, can we get round that somehow? But I'm quite clear this is an abhorrent crime. We have to stamp it out and we intend to do so.
Even so, until there is a very real change in the approach to dealing with FGM, girls like Siham will continue to suffer - long after the cutting knives have been put away.
When Siham was 12 she had reached puberty and was in so much pain because of what had been done to her as a child, she had to go to a doctor for help.
– Siham
He didn't understand what it was that I had told him and he actually had the audacity to ask me "Were you born a male?" If anything, he should have known what I was about to say before I even had to say it. Imagine - I was just a kid. And I remember walking out feeling really embarrassed and hoping I would never have to be in that position again.
A few days later she tried visiting a female doctor who did not know what FGM was either. She gave up and has never been to a doctor since.
There are thousands of women across the UK who are in Siham's situation. They know only too painfully that without real determination to bring offenders to justice and to stop this brutal practice, more girls will suffer.
– Siham
It changed me as a person. I would say that because it felt like it was the main thing that has ever happened in my life, that will always centre around whatever I do, in a way.

Cheeses, hams, potatoes, foies, caviars, olives, anchovies, and tuna, as well as carefully selected wines and cavas, flow freely here. Space is limited, so reservations are essential.

How to Brat-Proof Your Child
The Cavalier Consumer
- Whether you're in the toy store or the hardware store, your 5-year-old will find something she's got to have.
- You buy your 10-year-old a top-of-the-line skateboard, and two months later he's demanding an upgrade.
How did it come to this?
It's easier to give in and avoid a big scene than to say no and endure a meltdown. Or maybe you simply love to see your child's face light up when you buy him a gift, and now he expects to get whatever he asks for. Either way, you're doing him a disservice. "When you buy your child something to prevent a tantrum, all he learns is that he's got to scream to get what he wants," Dr. Kindlon says. And if you give him lots of things because you want to make him happy, it'll be harder for him to appreciate the gifts or the effort you went to. He's also robbed of the pleasure of anticipation that comes from saving up for a toy or waiting for his birthday.
Prepare for difficult situations ("We are going to the toy store to buy a present for Cousin Seth. This is not a day we're buying anything for you"). If your child starts to make a scene, try to ignore him and go about your business. Make it clear when and what you're willing to buy for him ("A train set is something you can put on your birthday list"). Try to focus on simple pleasures and experiences rather than on possessions.
Making it stick
If you have trouble saying no, start by giving in to your child's requests in fewer situations.
He'll get more enjoyment from the things he has. Receiving a gift will become special again, rather than something that's expected.

In 1957, French-Algerian writer Albert Camus won the Nobel Prize for Literature, and his short story collection Exile and the Kingdom was first published in French. The first English translations of the stories were not well received by critics.
Fifty years later, Carol Cosman has given a fresh translation to the book, which is being published in paperback, with a forward by Turkish novelist and recent Nobel winner Orhan Pamuk.

I'm well aware of the science. All you're doing is redefining god with no evidence, because something has the appearance of design, doesn't mean it was designed.
Labeling the defining forces of the universe as god is just another form of apologetics, it allows god to be responsible for everything, even when science is saying otherwise. I suppose if I were to cite a snowflake as an example of something that has the appearance of design, but that we know isn't designed, you're going to tell me 'ah, but god is the process that forms a snowflake'.
It's an idea that is a product of it's time, when god was a foregone conclusion and had to be incorporated in to science.
You can't have a foot in the supernatural and the other in the natural. If god is the natural then it ceases to be supernatural.

Also, if you choose to come to the blaze for your ""news"", you forfeit the right to use the 'What you do behind closed doors is your business, stop trying to make it mine' line. In case you hadn't noticed the blaze quite intentionally pushes these stories under your nose, so you have something to froth at the mouth about. How many other news sites have such a high proportion of stories about homosexuals?? You're effectively saying 'don't get in my face with this stuff', while actively seeking it out!!??!!

Still no science. There is no scientific proof for design. Saying you think it looks designed isn't science. A snowflake under a microscope appears designed, yet we know it isn't.
You may well be right, but until science finds evidence that supports design, it cannot be taught in a science class.
October 17, 2013 at 11:40am
But I think you're missing the fundamental problem with teaching creation in a science class; the lack of science.
I agree it is an alternative, it certainly can't be disproved, but there are lots of possibilities that science can't disprove. To be taught as an alternative in a science class it must have some sort of scientific grounding, at this point there is no scientific evidence for creation, therefore it has no place in a science class.

Where are you getting this nonsense (need I ask). If Darwin's theory dealt with the origin of life, I guess he would of called it 'The origin of life'. 'The origin of species' refers to Speciation, a process occurring once life has begun.
There is no conflict between evolution and creation, that is something that has been stirred up by Ray Comfort and the like. The issue with creationism being taught in a science class is that there is nothing scientific surrounding it, it is purely belief. If you're going to offer something as an explanation for the beginning of life in a science class, it has to have some sort of scientific grounding, wouldn't you agree?
Despite what you seem to believe, evolution has never claimed to answer the question of the origin of life.
October 6, 2013 at 2:12pm
Seems you need to go and brush up on the creationist playbook a bit. You seem to have messed up the wordplay trick, what you meant to say was 'no new genetic information is generated'. It's a common creationist saying, as technically it is correct.
Unfortunately what you said is wrong, new genetic material is added through genetic duplication. This becomes available for mutation. There are other ways in which genetic material can increase, but I'll let you read up on those (I won't hold my breath though).

We didn't evolve from apes, how many times does this have to be explained. We have a common ancestor, meaning we evolved in a different direction and at a different rate. Primates clearly evolved at a slower rate. There was no such thing as humans or apes at the time our common ancestor existed.

'I was brought to the fact that Macro-Evolution was incompatible with the timeframe of our universe'
I'm curious as to how you came to this fact. I don't want to be one of those people that demands a single answer to a question with many answers, so I'm not expecting a thesis. but I studied micro biology at university and although I dropped out to play in a band, I've maintained an interest in the biological sciences. I can't say I've come across anything that would lead me towards your stated incompatibility.

The CHOICE to homeschool or use private school without being bankrupted in the process.
Private schooling is expensive everywhere, home schooling is no more expensive in the UK than anywhere else.
The CHOICE to own a firearm.
You can own a firearm (most don't want to though)
The CHOICE to start a business in an environment in which it can turn a profit.
Started a company doing motion graphics work for TV about 18 months ago, making a lot of money.
The CHOICE to purchase health insurance, or not.
I chose to purchase private health insurance.
The CHOICE between driving a glorified golf cart or something more substantial.
I don't even know what this means, you appear to have a heavily manipulated idea of the UK. The school run in the morning is a constant stream of massive 4x4s.
The CHOICE to express your political opinions without fear of an audit.

Creation has no argument in the scientific field, as it is based on a fixed position with completely unreliable evidence. Creation science is entirely a manipulation of existing science and brings nothing of it's own that hasn't been debunked. Real science doesn't have to disprove something that doesn't follow the scientific method.
I've studied the science and I've examined arguments for creationism and read a few books by intelligent design proponents and I am yet to see anything from creation and intelligent design that withstand any critical examination.
The difference between you and me, is that you are coming from a fixed position. There are some things that regardless of what is put in front of you, you would never accept were wrong. Whereas if someone discovers something tomorrow, that wiped out the theory of evolution and it was tested and proven correct I would accept it. This is why creation has nothing to do with science.

'it is true and there is a preponderance of scientific evidence'.
Are you sure? I'd be interested to see some peer reviewed papers on this. The problem with the so called science on creationist websites, is that it inherently fails to be science. The moment an old book is presented as fact and a done deal and everything we see around us has to fit into that, it forfeits the right to call itself science.
I suspect the vast majority of creation science is never put forward for peer review, as it isn't really about science, it is about telling a group of people what they want to hear.

'this geological column continues to be more of a philosophical depiction of what it should be if evolution were true than a scientific depiction of what is commonly found'.
Except the scientists responsible were largely creationists, in fact Darwin hadn't written the origin of species at this point, 2 major contributors were Reverend Benjamin Richardson and Reverend Joseph Townsend.
It was always going to shift, because as you rightly point out, it is effectively impossible to show the entire sequence in one place. In effect it is like a massive jigsaw puzzle pieced together by comparing stratification of rock from thousands of locations all over the world and the dating of fossils contained within. These dating methods weren't available to the original scientists, yet when the dating of fossils was used as an index it tied in perfectly with the original findings.

ABSTRACT: Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability annually, and one of the larger populations for which neuroscience nurses care. Differences in gender have been identified as a risk factor for stroke repeatedly throughout the literature. The purpose of this evidence-based literature review is to provide information to healthcare professionals regarding stroke and its relationship with estrogen, the major female sex hormone. Background information on the three types of stroke is outlined, and information on estrogen compounds and hormone replacement therapy is detailed. A review of articles relating estrogen and/or hormone replacement therapy with stroke was performed. Fifty-seven articles met the criteria for inclusion in the review, 19 articles support the use of estrogen and/or an estrogen-related compound in the prevention or treatment of stroke, 6 articles claim estrogen and/or estrogen-related compounds are risk factors for stroke, and 11 articles remain inconclusive with regard to an estrogen and stroke relationship.

Although there is some debate about just how many freelancers there are in the U.S., everyone agrees that the number is rising. Writers, graphic designers, photographers, videographers, and other professionals are choosing to work for themselves even as the demand for creative content increases. Meanwhile, brands, non-profits, and small businesses need content for online platforms and other communication channels. The "freelance economy" is creating a new problem: How do organizations that need content find the professionals to create it?

Physicians for Human RightsUsing science and medicine to stop human rights violations
For Immediate Release
Persecuted in Two Countries, Burmese Refugees Face Starvation in Bangladesh Camps
Cambridge, Mass - 03/09/2010
Cambridge, MA — Stateless refugees from Burma face death from starvation and disease in makeshift camps because the government of Bangladesh denies them access to humanitarian aid, warns a team of health researchers from Physicians for Human Rights who just returned from the region.
In a survey of 100 households at one camp conducted Feb. 11-13, they documented that more than 18% of children below age 5 suffered from acute malnutrition. Child malnutrition rates above 15% indicate a "critical" situation, according to the World Health Organization. More than half the children had had diarrhea in the past 30 days - a reflection of the camp's unsanitary conditions. Many refugees reported that they had not eaten for two days.
In a 25-page report released today, PHR calls on the government of Bangladesh to immediately stop arresting refugees and forcing them back across the border. It also sounds an alarm about an ominous campaign of ethnic incitement conducted by Bangladeshi authorities. The report calls for a comprehensive regional response to the Bangladesh government's failure to protect and care for the refugees, as well as to the human rights violations in Burma that have caused some 300,000 Muslim minority Rohingya to flee that country.
"It is unconscionable to leave this vulnerable population stateless and starving," says Richard Sollom, PHR's Director of Research and Investigations. "Immediate steps are needed to prevent further malnutrition, disease, and death."
In February, the PHR team conducted an emergency health assessment in the makeshift Kutupalong camp in southeastern Bangladesh, just across the border from Burma. Sollom and his colleague, emergency physician Parveen Parmar from Harvard University, described camp conditions as among the worst they had ever seen, with people housed in ramshackle huts made of twigs and plastic sheeting, denied food aid, and living beside open sewers.
Hundreds of thousands of Rohingya — a Muslim ethnic minority — have crossed into Bangladesh since 1991 to escape persecution in Burma, where they have been subjected to systematic and widespread human rights violations, including summary executions, torture, state-sanctioned rape, arbitrary arrest, and forced labor.
The Bangladeshi government has only registered 28,000 Rohingya, who receive protection, humanitarian assistance, and food rations from UN agencies and international NGOs. But since 1993, the government has denied 200,000 subsequent Rohingya arrivals official refugee status, making them ineligible for UN aid and protection.
In recent months, the government of Bangladesh has stepped up its own persecution of the Rohingya, possibly in an effort to discourage an influx of new arrivals in the run-up to elections in Burma later this year. The PHR team interviewed 25 refugees, some of whom were among the hundreds who have been rounded up, beaten, and forcibly expelled from the country over the past several months.
The PHR emergency report on the humanitarian crisis, Starving and Stateless, calls on the government of Bangladesh immediately to cease the arbitrary arrest and forced expulsion of legitimate refugees from the country; to allow humanitarian agencies unfettered access to provide relief to vulnerable refugee populations; and to condemn and prevent the campaign of ethnic hatred against Rohingya refugees.
The PHR report also calls on the Burmese government to stop its widespread human rights violations against ethnic minorities, including the Rohingya. The report further urges the UN refugee agency to assert its mandate to protect and assist the unregistered Rohingya as a population of concern; to press the government of Bangladesh to allow humanitarian aid to flow unhindered to the Rohingya; and to launch a coordinated appeal to donor nations for humanitarian relief and protection for this neglected population.
"Thousands of Rohingya who fled intolerable persecution in Burma now face equally bleak conditions in Bangladesh, because the government there has refused to recognize their status as refugees," says Sollom. "What will it take to get them the aid they need to survive?"
Physicians for Human Rights (PHR) is an independent organization that uses medicine and science to stop mass atrocities and severe human rights violations. We are supported by the expertise and passion of health professionals and concerned citizens alike.
Since 1986, PHR has conducted investigations in more than 40 countries around the world, including Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, Sudan, the United States, the former Yugoslavia, and Zimbabwe.

ŌĆ£We are pleased to have attracted an exceptional group of investors who are committed to helping rebuild banks in this country,ŌĆØ said Paul B. Murphy, Jr., CBCŌĆÖs CEO, in the statement.
ŌĆ£The need for additional long-term capital in the U.S. banking system and the unique market timing enabled us to quickly bring together a talented team of directors, managers and investors who understand the role of community banks in building a strong economy.

Additionally, he said: ŌĆ£We intend to pursue situations where we can partner with top local banking talent to transform distressed banks into high-performing institutions. ┬ĀWe plan to provide fresh capital, new products, best in class technology and excellent management to benefit the customers we serve.

John Henry
Posted April 30, 2008
Fantastic Folktale
Synopsis: When John Henry was born animals from everywhere came to get a glimpse of the new baby. John Henry grew up to be very big and strong. Once when he was a young boy he was able to build a porch, add a wing to the house, and chop down an acre of trees into fireplace logs all before supper. John Henry could outrun horses and could break through boulders with his sledgehammer better than dynamite. After John Henry completed remarkable tasks, a rainbow would appear around his shoulders and he would sing. One day John Henry made a bet that he could drill through a mountain faster than a steam drill. As always, he flabbergasted people when he was able to drill more than a machine. His power was extraordinary and the people cheered for his amazing accomplishment. The rainbow had appeared on his shoulders and John Henry fell to the ground. After he had died people swore they heard the rainbow whisper words saying that dying is not important, what matters most is how well you lived. Evaluation: In the beginning of the book there is a brief history written about John Henry and the quest to discover if he was a real person or not. The original source of the story was given and readers learn that John Henry achieved his place in American literature through a novel, John Henry (1931) by Roark Bradford. The sources for the Black folk ballad were also mentioned since this book contains lines directly from the songs about John Henry. This historical information gives the reader good background knowledge in order to have a better understanding of the story. The plot of the story is very simple and direct. The language is written in a way that portrays the language that John Henry would have used during his time. This really makes the reader connect to the story and feel like they become part of John Henry¿s world while reading. The theme of the story is that people need to take pride in hard work and have good personal qualities. The moral at the end of the story is that is does not matter if we die because all people will die. What truly matters is how you live your life because that is something that lives on long after the body dies. The illustrations in the book add to the story and add details about John Henry¿s culture. The reader needs to examine these pictures closely because they have an abundance of details that make the story come alive.

Still Perfect: Marc Marquez Wins 10th Consecutive Race of the 2014 Season at the Brickyard
At this point in the MotoGP season, it will almost be more surprising if and when Marc Marquez doesn't win than when he does. Ten races, 10 wins – and each one just a bit different and equally impressive. At times he's made it look easy, dominating the field (Jerez); other times he's looked like it wasn't his day, only to shock us all with late race heroics (Mugello and Catalonia). This weekend at the Indianapolis Grand Prix at the world famous Brickyard, the reigning world champ opted for something that feel in-between those two categories.
Scott Dixon Secures First Win of Season at Mid-Ohio
Scott Dixon's Mid-Ohio victory on Saturday was impressive for a variety of reasons; namely being that it was his fifth win at the natural terrain road course in the past eight years. Although Dixon has made a habit of winning on this particular racetrack, including three in the past four years, the New Zealander didn't make it easy on himself this time around. After spinning out in qualifying, Dixon was forced to start the race in the very back of the field. With his triumph, he became the first person to win the race at this track after starting last.
Dungey Closes the Title Race Gap With Win at Washougal
Washougal was exactly the result Ryan Dungey needed in order to keep his title hopes alive. Trailing Oakley teammate Ken Roczen by 24 points heading into the weekend, Dungey won both motos, while Roczen took two thirds. The win – Dungey's 30th of his 450 Class career – takes a 10-point chunk out of Roczen's lead for the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship title, with three rounds remaining in the 2014 season. "Today was just about coming in and not worrying about the championship. There's a lot of racing left [this season]," said Dungey, who won for the sixth time at Washougal. "We just tried to put out our best effort and we did that. We got great starts and Eli [Tomac] kept us honest in that second moto, but I just really tried to put the hammer down and extend the gap. Fortunately, we did that. I love it here [at Washougal] and this just feels awesome."

The debate over abortion is characterized by self-labeled groups: Pro-Life and Pro-Choice. A new video from Planned Parenthood says that the labels from both sides limit a national conversation about the issue of abortion. It says that many Americans do not fit into each group neatly and it is time for a shift away from the restrictions of such labels. We want to hear from you. What is your reaction to the video?

But one thing is clear: if these people succeed in winning reelection it will not be on the backs of an honest presentation of their views – one which shows that their ideas resonate with the public more than ours. Quite the contrary, it shows that they must co-opt our message in order to win the primaries, and that cowardice is the path to victory for those who are ashamed of their views.
If they told the truth, their political careers would be over. So they lie. Because greed and power lust.

Quidsi Inc., the parent of Diapers.com, rolls out same-day delivery in Manhattan.
Quidsi Inc., the parent company of Diapers.com and Soap.com, by the end of 2010 will have built up a $300 million annual online retailing business by giving busy moms more ways to conveniently shop online.
Now if mothers who are raising families—Quidsi's core customers—happen to live in Manhattan, they also can catch a break on faster delivery. Shoppers of both Diapers.com, No. 85 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide, and Soap.com, Quidsi's recently launched personal care products e-commerce site, can now receive same-day delivery, which is free on orders of over $25.
If the orders are placed by 9 a.m. Eastern Monday through Friday, the shopper can expect same-day delivery, says CEO Marc Lore. "With same-day shipping in Manhattan, we have made online shopping one step closer to completely eliminating the need for physical stores," says Lore.
The retailer hopes to roll out same-day delivery nationwide Lore says. The company can offer it in Manhattan because the retailer has a local fulfillment center and a robotic fulfillment program from Kiva Systems that reduces from about two hours to around 20 minutes the time it takes to pick, pack and ship an order.
"We know that running out of essential products like toothpaste, toilet paper or diapers can be a huge hassle, which is why we're thrilled to give consumers a quick and easy way to get these products without going to a store," says Lore.
Quidsi, which now says it has 500,000 customers nationwide and can ship overnight to 74% of the U.S., joins other big online retailers, including Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble Inc., in offering same-day delivery to customers who live in metropolitan New York. Barnes & Noble (No. 42) has offered same-day delivery to online shoppers who live in Manhattan since 2000. For its Amazon Prime customers who live in the New York metropolitan area and six other large cities, Amazon (No. 1) began offering same-day delivery in October 2009.

2010 News - Flights - Monarch passenger numbers soar by over 20% in November 2010
01 12 2010
Leading leisure airline Monarch saw passenger numbers continue to soar in November with almost 226,000 holiday makers escaping to sunshine hotspots across Spain, Portugal, Gibraltar and Cyprus – a 20.5% increase on the same month last year and the highest number of passengers ever carried in the month of November. The airline also recorded its highest ever November load factor of 87.55%.
The soaring passenger numbers were assisted with Monarch's new twice-weekly winter flights from Gatwick and Manchester to the Balearic Island of Majorca and flights from Luton to Alicante, which have rejoined the winter schedule and offer three new flights a week.
Monarch's passenger statistics for scheduled services during November 2010:
Load factor (1):
November 2010: 87.55%
November 2009: 76.93%
Percentage change: +10.63%
Passenger numbers (2):
November 2010: 225,650
November 2009: 187,269
Percentage change: +20.50%
1. Represents the number of passengers as a proportion of the number of seats available for passengers.
2. Represents the number of earned seats flown by Monarch. Earned seats include seats that are flown whether or not the passenger turns up because once a flight has departed a no-show customer is not entitled to change flights or seek a refund.

In this
fascinating study, Stanford political science doctoral candidate Sarah Anzia offers new reasons
for dropping "off-cycle" elections for school boards and other bodies—unless
you're part of a special-interest group. As is well-known, such elections (those
that do not occur on a general-election or primary day) have notoriously low
voter turnouts—with a delta between them and on-cycle elections of as much as
20 percent. Anzia explains that this "empowers the largest and best organized
interest groups," since those groups "make up a greater proportion of the total
vote when that election is held off-cycle." As evidence, she analyzed
school-board election cycles and teacher salaries in those same districts.
Given teacher unions' mobilization, common goals, and tight organization, writes
Anzia, "we should expect school board members to be more responsive to teacher
union demands for higher teacher salaries when those teachers exert greater
influence in their elections." Because of the difficulty of cross-state
comparison, she limits her evaluations to eight states that have "within-state
variation in district election timing." And her findings are striking: Districts
with off-cycle elections pay their experienced teachers over 3 percent more
than districts (in the same states) that hold on-cycle elections. The pay
differential increased further for the most senior teachers: Those with
more than ten years of experience received 4.2 percent more in districts with
off-cycle elections. In Minnesota
specifically, Anzia finds that a 5 percentage point decrease in voter turnout is associated with a 0.7 percentage point
increase in average teacher pay. This
is a fairly big deal since (as Rick Hess has reported) more than half of our
school-district elections are off-cycle.
