Denis Who? by Wildwood Ultimate Fun - about 1 year ago
"A team of fourteen friends headed out to Wildwood, NJ for a beach ultimate frisbee tournament, and got a lovely picture of our friend Denis' face (top row, third from the left) printed on our lovely shirts! The order was cheap, fast, well-printed, all the sizes we right, and we already have friends asking if we're ordering more, because who doesn't want Denis' face on their shirt?"

Two years ago I ripped (to FLAC) about 1000 CDs my wife and I had collected since the early 90s.
The only ones that wouldn't rip were the ones that had deep scratches on them. We still have the CDs in our posession and still buy new ones and rip them to FLAC when they come into the house.
Seems like a sound plan, they are backed up and uploaded to Google Music, too, so we can listen to them anywhere
it's not just about leaving the country, it's also about being allowed to work above board
A large proportion of those brought in on H1Bs are low skilled grunt workers, something many locals can do
After controlling for offshoring levels, our estimates indicate that H-1B admissions at the current levels are associated with about 5% lower short-run wages for computer programmers and systems analysts
And there are plenty of reports that indicate at least a 6% drop in wages for local workers due to H1B employees
Your job may have no workers available, sure
But OS and middleware administrators, coders, there are plenty of in the USA. The salaries are depressed for local workers because of the plethora of H1B imports
have you seen how long that takes? many years in many cases
There are no cheaper goods and services
for the wages you were willing to pay...
To getting two H1Bs for the price of one!
These are already being abused by tech companies to force lower wages on those already legally in the USA, be they citizens or resident aliens, this will make it worse.

I have a feeling LSU will absolutely crush ND. Â ND hasn't done well in marquee matchups, and LSU's defense should stifle them.

Cellar temperature in a weizen glass.
A nice white, two-finger cloud of a head settles over a somewhat murky, fairly light reddish brown dunkel with carbonation streams rising upward.
It has a wonderful aroma of sweet, yeasty bread dough, caramel, raisins, vanilla, banana, and just a light touch of clove and perhaps some other spices.
The flavor is both sweet and tart, reminding me of banana bread and candied apples. The finish is a bit nutty and has the anticipated soothing breadiness German wheat beers traditionally have. There may be a little bit of clove, nutmeg, and cinnamon lingering on my palate. This isn't too unlike spiced fruitcake in flavor... or fruitBREAD.
Body is medium, carbonation high... but not too high.
Delicious dunkel.

A: Pours a cloudy copper color with a two finger thick creamy off-white head. The head reduces by about 25% but has great retention. There is significant lacing observed.
S - Cloves, banana and bubblegum explode on my nose. I can also detect some wheat which adds some character. Just another great nose from Ayinger.
T - nice notes that follow the nose, very wheaty beer with good fruit, clove, spice to compliment the bready body
M- Medium/light body and carbonation. Refreshing but not lifeless/weak bodied.
O: A really good weizen. Great for the weizen style, but I expected something a bit darker being a dunkel. Not upset by any means though.

Lightly hazed, golden oak colored body crowned with a generous, white head that holds on for awhile before dissolving to a small ring around the glass. Good visible carbonation.
Heavy clove and banana over a light, malty backbone. A hint of orange and ginger root with no traceable hop presence. Very welcoming.
Again, heavy banana and clove. Sweet. Smooth malt and wet wheat character. Belgian candy syrup - typical affair for the style, but is of very high quality. No noticeable alcohol and a light metallic note on finish, but I have had this bottle for awhile so I'm not going to fault the brewery as I've never experienced it in this beer before.
Smooth, light, and sweet. Light body. Medium to high levels of carbonation. Sweet finish. Refreshing!
Another brilliant brew by the folks at Ayinger! A stellar companion for a hot summer day that is packed full of character. A must have for any beer fan.

Wegmans 500mL/$ 3.49aroma
Undated bottle at 45 degrees into weizen glass
Aroma of yeast and faint of spice
Head large (9 cm), off-white, creamy, rapidly diminishing to 3 mm layer
Lacing spotty, small islands with small bubbles
Body dark yellow, cloudy

Appearance - Pours a cloudy and darkened honey hue with a white 2 finger head. Good retention, leaving behind a patchy layer of suds on the surface. Very little in the way of lace.
Smell - Clove spice, caramel, ripened banana and hints of bubblegum make this a formidable smelling dunkel.
Taste - Hits on strong notes of spicy clove, while lesser notes of caramel and banana add depth. Sparse touches of bubblegum poke through. The finish is a battle between soft caramel notes and spice form the clove character.
Mouthfeel - Light to medium body with an aggressive carbonation that bites at the lips and tongue.. A touch of diacetyl butteriness gives a it a smooth, gliding flow down the throat.
Overall - I'm not sure if I like this more than the Weihenstephaner dunkel, but it's close. I'd love to do a side by side, and I'd enjoy doing it. Us Americans have the one up on Europe so far as most ales are concerned, but we've yet to touch on the efforts of our Eastern comrades when it comes to hefes and dunkels. There's been some commendable attempts (Sierra's Kellerwies comes to mind), but we're not there yet. This dunkel is proof we've got a hell of a way to go.

A: Bronze colored body beneath a thick foamy white head. Hints of orange around the edges. No lacing. Head recedes quite quickly.
S: Spicy noble hop aroma. The hops are nice and floral. Only a hint of clove. Nothing else going on here.
T: Light clove and noble hop flavor. No grain flavor.
M: Very light, a bit watery.
O: Not a lot of flavor or aroma in this beer. No grain flavor, very light on esters and phenols, faint hops. It's an imported bottle, no bottle date and no import date. Won't buy it again unless I can try it fresh.

One of the longer lines on the Old Side, M3G is a good challange for people who like it crimpy. The crux is roughly the first 15 feet of the route, with interesting movement on good holds leading to a few HARD, awkward crimper moves to a crux lunge. This section of the climb is very well bolted, and skipping the first clip makes the climbing easier and better. The climbing eases significantly above the 3rd bolt, but remains interesting, and the rock is fairly good throughout.
Just right of the obvious overhanging prow of DDM, and roughly 40 feet left from the edge of the Benny Silva wall.

Stetson University College of Law, in unison with the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, recently announced the launch of the NACDL White Collar Criminal Defense College.
The first program of its kind at the first law school established in Florida, the program will feature focused, specified training for criminal defense lawyers in the field of white collar crime.
"The marriage of the leading advocacy law school in the country with the nation's leading criminal defense organization is a unique way to ensure that attorneys have the opportunity to enhance their white collar advocacy skills and also increase their knowledge of substantive white collar law," said Ellen S. Podgor, the Gary R. Trombley Family White Collar Crime Research Professor at Stetson Law, who will chair the White Collar Criminal Defense College.
The program will likely cover corporate investigations, representation of various employees, the handling of parallel proceedings in agency investigations, sentencing issues and grand jury investigation concerning corporate documents.
According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's website, the term "white collar crime" was coined in 1939 and covers a wide range of fraud committed by professionals in the government and business sectors.

Hello folks! The matchup this week is one in which the Panthers have their work cut out for them. The Panthers will take on the reigning NFC South Division champions and often-playoff bound New Orleans Saints. The Panthers had a miserable outing last week against a revamped Buccaneers team, and look to avoid starting the season 0-2 in divisional play. Winning this game would be huge in order to try and stay competitive in one of the better divisions in football. However, the high powered offense of the Saints and their deceptively strong defense. However, the Panthers also sport a high powered offense, and this game appears to be going to a shoot out.
For many on the Panthers roster (including Rivera himself), this game is personal, after the Panthers closed the 2011 season against the Saints and were on the losing end of a blow out. Many players on the roster want to get out there and get after the Saints, and hopefully the added motivation doesn't psych them out.
For the key matchups of the game, read on!
Josh Norman vs.
Devery Henderson Lance Moore
(editorial note: Change made because of news that Henderson will not be active for the Saints)
Marques Colston has gotten the better of Chris Gamble recently, however I think the more key matchup here is going to be the Saints other wideouts against the Panthers other corners. While the Saints don't sport other Pro Bowl talent on their team, players like Lance Moore are long time veterans with the Saints, and can still make catches and get open for Brees. Josh Norman made the start last week, covering Mike Williams and Vincent Jackson. We never really saw Norman get burned at all, he never really seemed out of position. However, this week he will probably face a different beast in Lance Moore. Moore is a savvy, shifty slot receiver that just has a knack for getting open and catching both Brees' eye and the ball. The Saints will most likely try to take advantage of the young defensive back. He will need to stay focused and not get too aggressive, because Drew Brees can and will sniff out any weakness he sees in the secondary.
Jimmy Graham vs. Jon Beason (Panthers linebackers)
For any Panthers fan, it is almost not descriptive enough to say watching Jimmy Graham play us is frustrating. He is a tremendous talent at the tight end position, and does a great job of giving defensive coordinators fits when trying to contain him. We saw the likes of James Anderson, Charles Godfrey, and others try to cover him, and saw very limited success at best against him. This season, the Panthers will have returning Jon Beason and Thomas Davis, along with newly drafted Luke Kuechly. Beason and Kuechly are both very good coverage linebackers, and will need to try and keep Graham contained for as long as possible. Hopefully the pass rush will help a little bit, as the Panthers really struggled to get after Brees last season. But containing Graham will be key in determining whether this is a close game or a blowout, for both sides. And the same goes for Darren Sproles, who will also create problems if he's not contained.
Last week, Cam Newton was under pressure way too much, plain and simple. The run game was near impossible with players constantly in the backfield, and normally great players such as Gross and Ryan Kalil played horribly. This week, the offensive line will have to do better, because the Saints will most likely try to exploit the mistakes the Panthers were making last week. Will Smith and Cameron Jordan will try to get after Cam and blow up the exterior runs. Gross and Byron Bell will need to handle this for any sort of offensive gameplan to work. Now, hopefully the Panthers will also try to get the interior run going, and get Williams and Tolbert (and possibly Stewart) into the mix early for some running success. If we see a repeat of last week's O-line play, don't expect a victory here.
Lofton is no Jonathan Vilma, but he is a solid linebacker who has some experience in this league. We saw him play many seasons with the Falcons before going to the Saints, and we will likely see more of the same out of him. Greg Olsen got involved early last week, and will look to do this again against a solid linebacking core. Scott Shanle and David Hawthorne will also be in the mix, but the Panthers will try to get a Jimmy Graham of their own involved, as the Saints will also need to worry about Steve Smith, who will create some mismatches.
This game is very, very important for the Panthers. The Panthers will look to avoid 0-2 for this first time since the 2007-08 season. It'll be a fun one to watch, and the Panthers hope to pick up some momentum heading into Thursday Night Football against the Super Bowl Champions.

The SEC newcomers will finally get a taste of SEC conference play. Both the Texas A&M Aggies and the Missouri Tigers are set to make their conference debuts this Saturday in an action-packed slate of college football. Both Missouri and Texas A&M will host their new SEC foes with Georgia at Missouri being the biggest game on this weekends slate of college football action.
The Georgia Bulldogs travel to Missouri, who is the most talented team of the two SEC newcomers.
"People are putting a lot into this game," Mizzou head coach Gary Pinkel said, "much more than I am. If you win it or lose it, you get up the next day, shoot, you've got 10 games left."
"What I tell my football team is that we're new," Pinkel said, "and we have to go earn respect."
Missouri could have come into the conference quietly but they instead decided to take a jab at the SEC prior to this weekend's game. They wanted it to be known that they are not scared to jump into conference play and they definitely made a splash in the headlines.
Missouri defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson said that he watched Georgia play against Buffalo in last week's opener but he had to turn off the game because "it's like watching Big Ten football, it's old man football." Taking shots at two conferences at once? Well done, kid. We'll have to see if Richardson thinks Georgia freshman RB Todd Gurley has old man speed.
Then, there is the Aggies. Texas A&M opens their SEC schedule against the Florida Gators. Like Missouri, Texas A&M made headlines by talking a little trash before even playing a game in the conference. A Texas A&M billboard appeared a few days ago that claimed the Aggies were the "cleanest program in the SEC" and that they had the best academics. Here is the billboard:
The two SEC newcomers sure have talked a big game but today will be their chance to back it up. We will have to see how they stack up against two of the SEC's top teams and it should give us a good idea of where Texas A&M and Missouri fit into the conference in the big picture.

As of Tuesday, September 17, 2013
© Copyright 2014 Gwinnett Daily Post
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Texas man suspected of killing 12 people in a shooting rampage at the Washington Navy Yard received an honorable discharge from the U.S. Navy Reserve in 2011, even though he exhibited a pattern of misconduct during his career, a Navy official said on Tuesday.
Initial reports indicated the man, Aaron Alexis, a 34-year-old Navy contractor, had received a general discharge from the Reserve, a category that suggests an unsatisfactory record. But the Navy official said Alexis had in fact applied for and received an honorable discharge.
Alexis entered Washington Navy Yard on Monday morning and gained access to the secure Navy Sea Systems Command building, where he went on a shooting spree that spread panic at the base just a mile and a half from the U.S. Capitol. He was armed with an AR-15 military-style assault rifle, a double-barreled shotgun and a handgun, a law enforcement source said.
A military official said that before discharging Alexis honorably, the Navy had been pursuing a general discharge against him on a series of eight to 10 misconduct charges, ranging from traffic offenses to disorderly conduct.
However, when it became evident the case against Alexis would not support a general discharge, he was allowed to apply for an early discharge under what is known as the Early Enlisted Transition Program, which is only used for honorable discharges, the military official said.
Alexis had a spate of run-ins with both civilian and military authorities while he was in the Navy Reserve as full-time support employee. He was arrested in DeKalb County, in 2009 on a disorderly conduct charge, and was accused of discharging a firearm by authorities in Fort Worth, Texas.
His misconduct in the Navy Reserve included everything from unauthorized absences from work to insubordination and disorderly conduct, including one involving drunkenness.
He received non-judicial punishment from the military for both the military and civilian misconduct charges, said a Navy official, who did not know the exact punishment.

So I have been training BJJ for almost coming up on 3 years and I have been having a bit of a form slump. I took a holiday and didn't train very much now i am back to training and while i feel good I wanted to talk to others about their training and what they are focusing on, in the hope that it gives me some ideas in how i can change my BJJ to push me to the next level.
I am quite tall (190 cm / 6'2") I play lots of guard with DLR/Spider/ deep half guard being my best guards. Lately i have been trying to sweep only from the bottom and play my top game more. but as i have not been playing much top game its the hardest part for me to work.
In terms of things i am trying to work on:
X-guard / butterfly guard from the bottom.
From the top im trying to work my mount/back control.

You Only Live Twice (novel)Talk0
this wiki
|You Only Live Twice (1st edition cover)
|Ian Fleming
|Glidrose Productions
|Cover artist:
|Richard Chopping
|Alternate title:
|Preceded by:
|On Her Majesty's Secret Service
|Followed by:
|The Man With The Golden Gun
You Only Live Twice is the eleventh novel—and twelfth book—by Ian Fleming featuring James Bond, secret agent 007; it was published in 1964, around the time Fleming died. It was adapted by screenplay writer Roald Dahl as the fifth entry in the James Bond movie series, which was released in 1967, starring Sean Connery as James Bond. The film was produced by Albert R. Broccoli and Harry Saltzman and was made by EON Productions. This film is the first Bond movie to deviate from the source material. Other than the Japanese setting, and several characters, the two stories are very different.
The novelEdit
You Only Live Twice is the concluding chapter in what is known as the 'Blofeld Trilogy'. The trilogy began with Thunderball and after the interlude novel The Spy Who Loved Me, resumed with On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
It has been suggested that Fleming had chosen to retire the Bond series with this novel, but later changed his mind and wrote The Man with the Golden Gun.
You Only Live Twice also marks the final appearance of Ernst Stavro Blofeld and references to his criminal organization, S.P.E.C.T.R.E. in Fleming's novels. A later novel, For Special Services, by John Gardner, features a rebirth of S.P.E.C.T.R.E. as well as Role of Honour and Nobody Lives For Ever.
In the 1990s, Raymond Benson wrote a short story sequel to You Only Live Twice, titled "Blast From the Past", although the story falls into neither Gardner's or Benson's Bond continuum.
The title of the novel is often mistaken as being the work of a Japanese poet named Matsuo Basho; however, the unique title comes from a haiku that James Bond wrote for his friend Tiger Tanaka. It is also mentioned in the novel that it isn't a haiku at all, that in actuality it is a failed attempt by Bond after being taught the basics for creating a haiku.
In the epigraph (and explained in the novel), the haiku is listed as being "after Basho", meaning written in the poet's style.
- "You only live twice:
- Once when you're born,
- And once when you look death in the face."
Plot summaryEdit
James Bond, his career fading after the wedding-day murder of his wife, Tracy Bond, is promoted by M to a special branch of MI6. M, was actually going to offer him dismissal from the secret service, but later changed his mind as a "last chance" opportunity for Bond to shape up. Bond is subsequently re-numbered as 7777 ("four sevens"), and assigned an impossible mission: Convincing the head of Japan's secret intelligence service, Tiger Tanaka, to provide information about an informant within the Soviet Union, information referred to as Magic 44.
Heading to Tokyo, Bond quickly befriends Tanaka, but seems unable to persuade him to do the British such a large favor. Finally, after two months of friendly boozing and not-so-friendly haggling, Tanaka tells Bond of a Swiss gentleman Dr. Guntram Shatterhand, a botanist who has built the Garden of Death, a secluded castle on a volcanic island off Kyushu stocked with boiling geysers, carnivorous fish, and poisonous plants and reptiles for the suicidal to use in ending their lives.
In exchange for the Magic 44, Tanaka asks Bond to kill Dr. Shatterhand. Bond accidentally discovers that Shatterhand is his nemesis Ernst Stavro Blofeld, and gladly takes the mission and dicovers that Statterhand is actually Blofeld. Bond keeps his knowledge of Blofeld a secret so that he can exact his revenge. Aided by former Japanese movie star Kissy Suzuki, and, with make up and training, James Bond learns to live and think as a Japanese in order to penetrate Shatterhand's castle. Bond is renamed by Tiger while on this mission as Taro Todoroki.
Bond ultimately exacts revenge on Blofeld in a sword fighting duel, but, on escaping, suffers a head injury leaving him an amnesiac living as a Japanese fisherman with Kissy, while the rest of the world believes him dead. While Bond's health improves Kissy conceals his true identity so as to keep him forever to herself, even going as far to marry him in a Japanese ceremony (Kissy never officially becomes his wife). At the novel's end, however, Bond finds a paper slip with the name Vladivostok written on it, making him wonder if the far-off Russian city is the key to his missing memory. Unbeknownst to Bond, Kissy reveals, in thought, that she is pregnant.
At book's end, is an obituary written by M for Commander James Bond, C.M.G., R.N.V.R., featuring the majority of his biography, per Fleming. It includes his parents' names, their fate, and Bond's Royal Navy service. Most notably, the obituary refers to a series of sensational novels about his exploits — a clearly post-modern reference to Fleming's work, and the source of rumours that James Bond was based upon a real man. The book, James Bond: The Authorised Biography of 007 is based upon that premise. Additionally, the same chapter includes an epitaph by Mary Goodnight (M.G.).
- This is the only Fleming novel in which Bond is given a designation other than 007. He was never again referred to as 7777, and by the next novel had returned to double-oh status.
- David Niven is specifically mentioned by Kissy Suzuki as the only respectable man in Hollywood. Niven later played "Sir James Bond" in the 1967 spoof, Casino Royale. Niven had also been considered for the role officially for Dr. No in 1962.
- Bond quips to Blofeld that his plot should be made into a Broadway theatre musical, set by Noel Coward. Coward was a long-time friend of Ian Fleming's, and they both spent the latter part of their lives living in Jamaica. Coward had also been invited to play Dr. No in the first Bond film, but had declined.
- The first volume of The Moneypenny Diaries by Samantha Weinberg (published under a pseudonym) covers some of the events occurring between On Her Majesty's Secret Service and You Only Live Twice.
- Fleming did not resolve the issue of Kissy's pregnancy in the remaining Bond stories he wrote before his death. Bond's son appears for the first (and only) time in Benson's sequel, "Blast from the Past".
Comic strip adaptationEdit
Ian Fleming's novel was adapted as a daily comic strip published in the British Daily Express newspaper, and syndicated worldwide. The adaptation ran from May 18, 1965 to January 8, 1966, was written by Henry Gammidge and illustrated by John McLusky. It was the final James Bond strip for Gammidge, while McClusky returned to illustrating the strip in the 1980s; the strip was reprinted by Titan Books in 2004.
In the segment featuring Bond's obituary there is a reference to "sensationalistic novels" written about Bond's adventures (as in the novel's plot summary, above), wherein artist McLusky uses actual covers of Fleming's books.

Prescott firefighters killed: Most families won't receive full benefits
Thirteen of the 19 Prescott firefighters killed while fighting a wildfire were classified as temporary employees and not entitled to full survivors' benefits. As a result, they receive smaller death benefits than the families of the six firefighters classified as full-time.

So you got the called in for the interview but you blew it. Not really sure where you went wrong? There could be several factors, but below is a list of the most common. To make sure you don't make any of these blunders on your next interview, follow the tips below.
1. You Didn't Do Your Homework
One of the most cardinal sins of job interviewing is to show up unprepared, meaning you're clueless about the job that you're actually interviewing for. Do your research of the company way beforehand, including the company's mission, history, as well projects the company has completed. Pick out something specific that you can single out that you like/admire. For example, if you are interviewing for a publication, select an issue that really blew your mind and state why. It's also a great idea to research the "important" people in the office such as managers and executives— you don't want to get caught in the elevator with one pre-interview and stick your foot in your mouth. Most of this information can be found on the company's website or with a simple Google search. Not only will employers be impressed that you know so much, but your research will give you better insight to whether that's the place you actually want to work for.
2. You Provided No Specific Example, Ideas
Just like when applying to colleges, employers want to know what you as an individual will bring to the table. That said, those who are most likely to get hired are applicants that are able to give specific examples on what/how he or she can contribute to the company. Do you have a unique set of skills? How did you learn those skills? Any previous job or leadership positions teach you? Do you have a great idea that will make the company better?
3. You Brought up the Subject of Money
Your earning salary is something that you should definitely be addressed at some point, but refrain from talking about money until the interviewer brings is up. Otherwise, you just appear money hungry and employers aren't interested in applicants that solely are concerned about pay. When the matter is brought forth however, do make sure that you state the salary you were hoping for and make an argument for it—were you getting paid more at your previous job? Do you need to compensate for moving out of state expenses? Etc.
4. No Long-Term Commitment Potential
Lastly, one of the most aggravating things an employer can do is hire someone who really only intends on staying for a short time (or until something better comes a long)—it takes time and money to hire someone new, and employers don't want to bring someone on the team that doesn't plan on staying. So when the interviewer asks you where you see yourself in X amount of years, don't say something that isn't related to the company you're applying for—say you hope to hold a leadership position, etc.

The principle of public access
The principle of public access means that, as far as possible, the activities of government agencies, the Riksdag and local government decision-making bodies should be open. To guarantee transparency in these activities, the principle of public access to official documents has been enshrined in one of the fundamental laws, the Freedom of the Press Act.
The principle of public access entitles the general public to access official documents. Documents that are received or sent out by the Government Offices and other government agencies, e.g. letters, decisions and inquiries, usually constitute official documents. As a general rule, all incoming documents should be registered by the receiving authority.
Notes and draft decisions are not normally classified as official documents. If you want to know what documents are held by a government agency or to get hold of them, you should contact the agency in question.
The principle of public access also means that officials and others working in central government, municipalities and county councils have freedom of communication. This means that, with some exceptions, they have the right to tell, for example, the media about matters that would otherwise be secret without punishment and without the employer finding out who provided the information.

Do you still update the theme according to the wordpress versions. It stats that it's works with wordpress 3.5. I have wordpress 3.5.2.
3.5.x version only bug fixes for WP 3.5, so all themes for 3.5 working good out of the box. However, all bugs will be fixed very quickly if will any.
@verocom hi, can you please tell me how to do Fullscreen logo you have gave this .head.fix .logo { margin-top: 2px;} for logo
but fullscreen logo it doesnt work..
@emrah75tr: the fix I had gave to aristokat wasn't for the fullscreen logo… It was for the logo on the top-left.. For the fullscreen logo, you have to put the image into the Fullscreen Slide Setup. Put this in the "Main Copy" : [img src='http://path-to-your-logo.jpg' ]
@alaja Would be nice to hear from you for my questions above.. !
Thank you for your help!
Hi again
How do I fix the height of the feature image for the Works? As all my works images/Portfolio are different heights.
Feature image sizes for the Works is fixed, try to disable all plugins (that can disrupt theme) and re-upload featured images for Works.
Hi Alaja,
Cam @ Sensory back for more some help please.
I would like to apply the same black background to the whole site/page, with the white nav bar for each page (as on the home), rather than the black on white.
I have a white logo png that gets lost on internal pages, and the client would prefer the whole site to be black with text/nav/social media icons reversed out.
In addition, the contact page has a large white bar on the bottom of the page that i would again, like to convert to black.
Please advise ASAP, thanks. Cam
Hello Cam, we don't support customization requests http://themeforest.net/item/anthe-wordpress/4070793/support
1] I am presently working with the "Services 6" template for my website. With that being said, we only have 4 "services," how to does one (a) remove 5-6. I know it will look a bit off, but it will look better than having two blank sections titled 05. and 06..
2] Also, is it possible to have two separate "latest works" pages? We want to use one for "artists" and the other for "events?" Right now, when you add "new work," it shows both on the "artists" and "events" pages. I tried creating two categories, but that didn't do anything.
1) You may start your modification from template-services-6.core.php in theme folder
2) On the Works page please find the Works Options box below editor and use 'Category Filter' to have separated works pages
Thank you!
Another question … is it possible to link "excerpts" on the Process template to other pages on my website?
The most easiest way is to add the links to the Process content pages, for the excerpts you will need a custom theme modification.
Hey. Is there a way to manually add categories to journal section or within posts?
I tried hard coding a link to categories inside the post but it then shows all posts without actually filtering them and the page heading is also wrong.
Please use latest version of Anthe theme v0.27
Using this for a business and looking to increase SEO. Is there a sitemap I that comes with this theme?
By the way….great theme.
Please use any SEO plugin for WordPress http://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=sitemap&sort=top-rated
Hi there. I absolutely love this theme. It's fantastic! Thanks!
I have a small request if possible. I really like how the navigation menu responsively moves underneath the logo on the home page when displayed on a mobile device. But I'm really not a fan of the navigation dropdown menu that appears on all other pages. Is it possible to have the navigation on all pages the same style as the home page when viewed on a mobile device? I'd really like to get rid of the dropdown menu if I can. At the moment I have had to make the logo smaller for mobile browsers so that things don't overlap. But it still looks somewhat messy on a mobile.
If you can give me some CSS to override the drop down menu with the normal one, that would be great. The website in question is www.sampierpoint.com
Many thanks!!
Thank you, Mike! Amazing website you have!
It's not recommended, but the most easiest way to do so is to remove next colored lines in style.css theme file http://cl.ly/QBVi
I'm having a problem with pages that are being used on Services tabs template. I've created buttons on each page but it seems not to work in my main page, which is a Services template. But it does work when I access separately.
It shows buttons' shortcodes instead buttons. E.g.: [button url="#url"] Button Text [/button]
Congrats, great theme!
Thank you. Please open template-process.core.php in theme folder then http://pastie.org/pastes/8134270/text (line #48). Repeat the same for the $content2 & $content3
Thank you! It worked, one correction though: instead opening template-process.code.php, I opened template-service.core.php and changed the codes, because I'm using services template on my main page. Each slide (not tabs, like I said before – sorry about that) has shortcodes now. Thank you for quick support, Alaja.
Sorry for misleading, yes, template-service.core.php you absolutely right.
Hi I seem to have a problem with the contact page. I have no form that comes up when I use this template just the map and a suggestion to go to the small biz options panel which I can't find. Do you mind advising what I should do. Thanks heaps
Please open the Shortcode Manager on this page (latest button in your editor, looking like magic wand) and use 'Contact Page' example content on the page.
thanks so much

Just in time for Australia Day - well, maybe just a few days after - I've decided to start on River's 'Eat the World' challenge with that old Aussie favourite - Lamingtons.
Firstly, I baked the sponge. I used the recipe for vanilla cake in 'How It All Vegan!' with the aforementioned strawberry substitution - I doubled-up the recipe and then used a single serving carton of Asda's strawberry soya yogurt and that seemed to work out just fine. I baked the sponges in square pans in the morning and let them cool thoroughly before enlisting my little larakin to assist with the messy bit - dipping and rolling!
I melted seven - yes, seven! - 100g bars of dark chocolate with a tablespoon of Pure soya margarine in a saucepan and then we took turns dipping small squares of the sponge cake into the pan until
Immediately we rolled them in desiccated coconut I had out on a plate before transferring to a wire rack to cool. The idea is the chocolate soaks into the sponge and once it dries and hardens you get that irresistible combination of hard chocolate, chewy coconut with slightly sticky, moist sponge. Oh, yum!!!
Was it any good? I'd have to say a resounding 'yes!' thanks to the combination of textures and flavours. Plus, for any mums out there it's a really easy activity to do with small children which gives them the satisfaction of getting good and messy whilst at the same time transforming something plain into something really quite fancy looking. I'm sending a batch in to work with Skint Vegan Dad and we'll just have to work our way through the rest, I suppose... (n_n)
To all my Antipodean friends out there, Happy (belated) Australia Day!

Cheap Wine Friday: Two Buck Chuck Showdown
July 6, 2012 | Posted By: Troy Redington | Categorized in: Food & Dining Out
From what I understand, when a real wine reviewer reviews Charles Shaw ("Two Buck Chuck") wine it's career suicide. Luckily for us, we're not real wine reviewers :)
Heather recently had access to a different urban environment, one with culture, activities, and Trader Joe's. She brought home a case of the Charles Shaw - a wine that is notorious for being ultra cheap, but not ultra bad. We moved our wine tasting to the Fatwallet Zen conference room - a room with comfy wicker furniture and a water feature. My office was simply too hot, and frankly everybody refused to drink wine until I put my shirt back on anyway. Mike O also brought in a Pinot Noir that he found.
Score some cheap wine of your own in our Wine Deals Section.
Patch Block - Pinot NoirMike O Found this for $4.99 (regularly $9.99) and brought it in for us to sample. I'm a Pinot Noir N00b. I've had a few samples here and there - but I still don't really know what it's about or what it SHOULD taste like. I found this one to be quite pleasurable. It tasted like a mild cabernet. I could taste the grapes. There was a touch of dryness with a nice aftertaste. It was slightly sweet, but not sweet enough to be considered a sweet wine for sure. I would drink this - but I don't know that I would commit ten bucks to a bottle of it.
Brian: Too many tannins. Makes me pucker.
Heather: I like it a lot! Finally a wine that isn't so sweet. I like that it's dryer and I'm glad it's not candy sweet.
Brian (again): It opens up nicely. It doesn't seem as dry as the first sip.
Joe: It's not as sweet as I would normally drink, but it's good.
Melissa O: It's a red, so it's automatically not my favorite. It made my jaw tighten up with the tartness, but overall it was pretty OK. I would probably try it again.
Charles Shaw - White ZinfandelI think it's pretty hard to screw up a White Zinfandel. I don't know zins very well, but this one seemed on par with all the others I've tried. It was sweet, a little on the peachy side, with a citrusy pucker on the finish. I didn't notice much fragrance at all - possibly because it was served cold. At three bucks, I would totally buy this wine.
Melissa S: It's oddly sweet, with a bit of a sour finish
Heather: This is good! It has a citrusy fruity flavor.
Brian: This would be fantastic to drink on a hot day while sitting on the front porch.
Melissa S: This is bad...I could totally drink this whole bottle
Melissa O: It's fruity, sweet, and yummy. I could totally drink a bottle by myself.
Charles Shaw - Sauvignon BlancAgain, I really don't know much about Sauvignon Blancs. I know they should be a bit dry, but crisp and fresh. This wine was exactly that. It was more dry than my wife would like, but not dry enough to make her complain about it. It had a nice flavor and was very refreshing. I thought the flavor was slightly complex as it changes on the palette. It did have a kinda funky smell that was very unfamiliar to me, but I didn't think the smell was bad. At three bucks, I wouldn't be afraid to buy another bottle of this. I think this would pair very well with fish.
Brian: It's got a little body odor scent to it!
Joe: It does kinda smell like BO. And it's tart.
Heather: I think it's very fresh. I LOVE this!
Brian: It's not as harsh as I was expecting. I think it's less dry than the Pinot Noir. There's not much aftertaste either.
Melissa S: It's not as sweet. I like the white zin better.
Melissa O: Blechhh.
Ryan: I'm not really a fan of this, but I think this is what most Sauvignon Blancs taste like.
Overall - I'd say the Charles Shaw wines are winners. They tasted as good or better than plenty of other wines that are double or triple the cost. I don't know what the hangover factor is, or even if the hangover factor should be part of the review, but it does concern me.

BB Men Win 5th Straight in Redlands Romp
News Release Date:
Thursday, December 30
WALLA WALLA, Wash. -- Ending the calendar year on a happy note, Whitman College chalked up its fifth straight men's basketball victory with a 88-65 romp past the University of Redlands Thursday evening in Redlands, Calif.
Whitman 88,
Redlands 65
Box Score
Whitman completed the non-conference portion of its schedule with a 7-2 record.
"Great win for our guys," Whitman coach Eric Bridgeland said. "To come into this environment with our third game in four days and have this kind of performance is what we've been working towards."
|Josh Duckworth
Thursday's loss was the fifth straight for Redlands, a member of the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.
Redlands, now 2-9 on the season, has lost in recent weeks to NCAA Division I Pepperdine as well as Concordia (Irvine, Calif.), a nationally ranked NAIA school. Its most recent losses came at the hands of two NCAA Division III powers, undefeated Marrietta and 11-1 Chapman.
|Peter Clark
Whitman steadily pulled away from Redlands in the first half and held a 17-point lead at halftime. Sophomore Peter Clark hit a 3-pointer to open the second half, stretching Whitman's advantage to 53-33. He struck again from long range at the 15:07 mark to give the Missionaries their largest lead of the night at 61-57.
The Bulldogs drew no closer than 16 points the rest of way. Whitman led by 20 or more for the last eight minutes of the contest.
Freshman Josh Duckworth paced Whitman's offense with 19 points. Clark connected four times from the 3-point arc en route to 14 points. Senior Justin Artis added 12 points with 10 of those coming in the first half.
Whitman also got nine points and three steals from sophomore Ignas Pavilonis and eight points from junior Brandon Shaw. Sophomore Drew Raher added to the defense with three steals while junior David Michaels grabbed seven rebounds to spark the Missionaries to a 40-35 victory on the backboards.
Redlands held its only lead of the night at 5-4 two minutes into the first half. Pavilonis followed with two 3-pointers to vault Whitman into the lead for good.
|Justin Artis
Two baskets by Duckworth and one by Artis had Whitman in front 28-21 with less than eight minutes left in the half, but the Bulldogs responded with the next four points to stay close.
Inside of four minutes, Michaels finished a three-point play in the paint and Duckworth swished a pair of free throws for a 39-31 Whitman lead. The Missionaries then closed out the half with a flurry, getting 3-pointers from Raher, junior J.P. Alvarez and Clark to seize a 50-33 lead at the break.
Freshman Jordan Dickson also knocked down a pair of 3-pointers in the first half. Whitman finished the game with a 13-2 edge in 3-point baskets.
"Redlands did a very good job of taking away the paint from us," Bridgeland said. "It was nice to see our shooters answer the bell from the perimeter."
"Defensively, this was one of our best performances to date," he added. "Redlands is a very tough team to guard, but our guys were up to the challenge."
The Missionaries are home next weekend (Friday, Saturday) to host NWC rivals Puget Sound and Pacific Lutheran.

Featured Event
3/12 - Seminar (physical): Latha Venkataraman, Columbia University
Latha Venkataraman - speaker's webpage
Department of Applied Physics & Applied Mathematics
Columbia University
Host: Steven Bernasek
Electronics and Mechanics of Single Molecule Circuits
Understanding and controlling electron transfer across metal/organic interfaces is of critical importance to the field of organic electronics and photovoltaics. Single molecule devices offer an ideal test bed for probing charge transfer and mechanics at these interfaces. Furthermore, results from these single-molecule measurements can be readily compared theoretical models. The ability to fabricate single molecule devices and probe electron transfer reliably and reproducibly has enabled us to study and model transport through them. In this talk, I will review the scanning tunneling microscope break-junction technique we use to measure conductance through single molecule junctions1. I will then discuss measurements of molecular junctions formed using novel metal-molecule link chemistries2,3, which allows us to tune the transport mechanism from tunneling to near resonant transport in a single molecule junction. I will end this talk showing results from simultaneous conductance and force measurements at the single-molecule level, which allow us to probe van der Waals interactions in these systems.4

Teen online dating sites are starting to pop up all over the web. Most of the sites claim to be for teen online dating but they are either places for pedophiles to prey upon vulnerable teens or random chat rooms. As Christians go, there are even fewer teen online dating sites that cater to those looking to edify their faith while also seeking a dating relationship. So, it makes sense to be wary of teen online dating sites from the start.
Why Look Online Anyhow?
Many adults use online dating to meet people because they are busy and their social circles tend to shrink as they get older. The advantage that teens have over their adult counterparts is that they have a built in social network in their schools and outside activities. Teens are surrounded by their peers making it easier to make real connections with real people right around them.So, why are teen online dating sites popping up? Well, in some cases a teen might have a very small social circle or want to expand his or her search to those outside the city in which they live. Not surprising, but still it is no more likely that a teen would find a relationship in an online environment than in math class.
Stranger Danger in Teen Online Dating
There are so many dangers inherent in anything we do online, and teen online dating sites present real peril to those that use them. It's a reality that there are people out there who are wired to prey on young people. The Internet provides them with a playing field like no other area of their lives. They can easily present themselves as fellow teens and sometimes fool even the most experienced online user.
It is so important to keep yourself safe online, whether using teen online dating sites or other social networks. There are tips to keeping yourself safe online, including not giving out personal information, being skeptical of what the other person tells you, and guarding your heart. People who will want to prey on you will lie to make you think they are just like you, think like you, act like you. If you feel like you want to make a real-life connection, communicate that with a parent or youth leader. No matter what your heart or emotions tell you, use your head to guide your actions.
Don't Underestimate Meeting Real People in God's Time
Sure, it's easy to say that, if adults use them, teen online dating sites should be a piece of cake, but really there is still something to be said for meeting people in person, too. God has a plan for your life, and dating may or may not be part of that plan right now. It's important to keep Him in mind when meeting people in person or online. Yet, it is easier to gauge a person's faith by meeting him or her in your real life vs. a virtual one.
Also, don't be so impatient. It can be hard to not date while all your friends have boyfriends or girlfriends, but forcing the issue is no way to develop positive relationships, either. Some people turn to teen online dating sites just to find someone to date, rather than looking at developing relationships in a Godly way. It makes it easy to fall into temptations and end up doing something we may regret later.

Former lightweight champion Sean Sherk (33-4-1) has been forced to turn down a potential barnburner against Clay Guida at the upcoming UFC on Versus event from The Odeum Colorado after lingering injuries hampered his preparations for the March 21 event.
"The Carpenter" is expected to remain on the card against an opponent to be named.
This is the third straight event the "Muscle Shark" has been forced to withdraw from. In fact, Sherk hasn't competed since a unanimous decision loss to Frankie Edgar at UFC 98: "Evans vs. Machida" in a battle of the mitts back in May 2009.
He was booked for a 155-pound scrap opposite Gleison Tibau at UFC 104: "Machida vs. Shogun" last October; however, a "Grade II AC separation" in his right shoulder nixed the contest and allowed Josh Neer to take his place.
Sherk was then re-booked to battle fellow wrestler Jim Miller at UFC 108: "Evans vs. Silva" after a whirlwind of fight card changes. Unfortunately that didn't last either, as a severe forehead laceration put the kibosh on his Jan. 2 return.
The former welterweight has come under fire for his rash of training injuries that have plagued him in the latter part of his career following a positive steroid test on the heels of his win over Hermes Franca at UFC 73: "Stacked" in July 2007.
The test itself was administered during a very shady time in the much-maligned California State Athletic Commission's (CSAC) history and Sherk continues to maintain his innocence, yet the court of public opinion has been (perhaps unfairly) unforgiving on the Minnesotan.
Sherk has also been criticized for abandoning his roots (wrestling) which was a big factor is his divisional dominance for so many years in favor of a new stand-up attack that favored him in a UFC 90 bout against Tyson Griffin but cost him the aforementioned fight against Frankie Edgar.
At the ripe old age of 36, the "Muscle Shark" needs to dial it in sooner rather than later if he wants to head back toward title contention before calling it quits.
Assuming he can stay healthy long enough to get back inside the Octagon.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- A Minneapolis woman will join first lady Michelle Obama at Tuesday's State of the Union address.
Abby Schanfield was born with toxoplasmosis, a parasitic disease. She has had lifelong medical problems, and says without the Affordable Care Act -- the health care reform law championed by President Barack Obama -- she'd have little chance of buying medical insurance on her own.
Schanfield is a recent University of Minnesota graduate. She says that under the Affordable Care Act, she can stay on her parents' insurance policy until she turns 26. Prior to the new law, Schanfield would have lost coverage on her 21st birthday.
KTTC will have complete coverage of the President's State of the Union tonight 8. You can also stream the event live, right here on kttc.com.

Maybe this conversation has been had, but I need help picking an NL team to follow now that our beloved 'Stros left the Senior Circuit. Up until last year, I always had a little love for the Orioles. I got to go see the Astros visit Camden Yards a few times, since I live in upstate New York now and Baltimore is only five hours away. Since the O's are good-ish now and they're our competition in the AL, I have to find a little hate for them.
Here's what I'm thinking for options:
Pirates - they're the closest NL team from where I live
Marlins - there's definitely no bandwagon right now, and their level of suckness is just awesome
Here's what aren't options:
Cubs - I will never stop hating the Cubs for causing Hurricane Ike
Cardinals - I will never stop hating the Cardinals (why isn't there an easily accessible video of the Pujols/Lidge event?)
What do you guys think?

This past weekend Jen and I took the Parents D to see a play at the Bushnell in Hartford. It was Mom D's birthday a few weeks back and what's better than a theatrical production? Nothing! The choice? War Horse – complete with puppets and horses!
Gad zooks that play is dark.
I was completely unprepared for the carnage and emotionally draining plot. Sure, with the word War in the title I was expecting some level of seriousness – but there was death and destruction beyond my greatest expectations!
The production was amazing, use of sound and light were stunning, and of course the Horse puppets were awe inspiring. The puppeteers weren't really hidden at all, but it eventually got the point where we no longer noticed them. In fact, the first half of the play was a bit slower than I would have liked… but you know… character development and stuff.
Overall, I'd give War Horse 4 stars. And despite the perhaps less than lively juxtaposition with my Mom's birthday, it was an amazing experience. Unfortunately, the show is no longer available in Hartford – but I'd certainly recommend you go to check it out if it comes to your area.
6:32 pm
I ate this great pie once. It was a little bland and had nuts on it. Once you get a bite or two in you don't even notice the nuts anymore and the flavor really explodes. BLANDNESS?? More like TASTENESS!!! But there isn't anymore, so don't plan on eating it. Sorry.
Thats how I felt reading your thing Mike….I hope you feel the same way about the mysterious magical pie I really ate in real life and am not making up as I type.

News from David K. Bernard, General Superintendent, UPCI
January 16, 2010 by admin
Filed under Updates From Abroad
Last night Brother Scotty Slaydon, Director of Compassion Services for the UPCI, was able to speak with the UPCI SMART Team as they were assembled at our compound in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Yesterday they purchased some $3,000.00 worth of basic food items and water which were loaded into a 30 passenger bus for land transport to Haiti. There is a man in the church there who is a government official and he has taken care of the border crossing for them. Thank the Lord!
Here is his report:
This morning at 7:26 the team texted me to say they were departing for Haiti. Let's keep them in our prayers. The news is reporting that because of the desperate situation there are gangs attacking the convoys for food. On a good day Haiti is pretty wild and I cannot imagine what it must be like now.
This morning the UPCI sent several Med-Packs and boxes of medical supplies to Med Express in Alexandria, LA for shipment to Haiti next week. A big thank you to Cherry Air and Med Express for making this happen!
In the coming weeks we will send medical teams and probably construction teams to Haiti. If you are interested in participating in these trips, please monitor our website http://www.compassionservices.org for upcoming information there.

Paul Myerberg, the excellent writer from the New York Times and Pre-Snap Read is continuing his excellent preview series. Here is a sample of his look at Florida.
In a nutshell Three different offensive coordinators in as many years, three different offensive systems in as many years. A new quarterback, whether the Gators go with Brissett or Driskel. An offensive line that lacks depth; it's a group that could crumble if there are any meaningful losses along the interior. A receiver corps stuck in the middle, with the experienced options recruited for an entirely different system and the new faces not quite ready for prime time. This offense, simply put, is not ready to mount a serious run against the SEC's elite defenses - and as a result, Florida is not ready to make a run back to the top of the SEC.
Then there's this defense, and it's this defense that takes an otherwise mediocre team and lifts into the hunt for a national ranking. If Powell is healthy, Florida's pass rush will be better than it was a season ago. That will be of an enormous benefit to a young secondary that still needs time to grow as a group. But more so than a season ago, U.F. has the sort of depth Muschamp requires along each step of the defense: the Gators are deeper up front, especially at tackle; have two or three linebackers fighting for snaps behind the top threesome; and go seven deep in the secondary, even if more than half of the seven are sophomores. Florida knew that Muschamp would turn this defense into a menace - and he's delivered.
But you wonder about the magic number: the number of points this offense must average a game for Florida to win the SEC East title. Is it 21 points, 24 points, 27 points? It's at least 20 points, and I look at this offense, look at this schedule, look at the SEC at large and wonder how a reworked group - one with some fairly large personnel issues - plans on scoring with consistency from September through November. Pease is an upgrade, but how long will it take the Gators to find their rhythm in his specific system? It won't happen overnight, and it's a process that will be slowed by teams like L.S.U., South Carolina, Georgia and others.
I can see Florida losing another six games before I can see this team winning the SEC East, which is not something you'd say - with a tweak for divisional membership - about the upper crust of the conference. The Gators remain too unbalanced; the defense could carry this team to nine wins, but the offense is going to fall flat at least once or twice over the span of the season. If Pease is the answer, U.F. will be a serious title contender heading into next season. For now? Florida and Tennessee are in a near tie for third place in the East, one full notch below Georgia and South Carolina. Eight wins will signal progress, but it won't land the Gators an SEC title game berth.
Dream season Florida loses to L.S.U. and Florida State but sweeps through the rest of the schedule unscathed, primed for a title game rematch against the Tigers. Muschamp would be the third Florida coach to reach double-digit wins in his second season, joining Steve Spurrier and Urban Meyer - that's some good company.
Nightmare season The Gators' offense falls flat against A&M and Tennessee, disappears against L.S.U., South Carolina and Florida State, and can't do enough against Georgia to score an upset. For the second straight year, U.F. heads into bowl play at 6-6.
Again, this is only a tiny sample. Please do check out the rest of the article.
