Balance Antioxidant Hydration Spray was formulated "specifically to help balance the skin's oil production and pH," but nothing in this toner can have that effect, plus the skin handles it's own pH fairly well via sweat and oil production. (After all, oil production is regulated internally by hormones, so external factors have only a negligible influence.) Further, this toner contains irritating tangerine extract as a major ingredient, as well as myrrh. Tangerine can be a skin irritant (though the extract is not as potent as the oil), and myrrh can cause contact dermatitis due to its volatile components, though it does have anti-inflammatory benefits (Source: www.naturaldatabase.com). However, myrrh is not worth seeking out over several other plants whose soothing benefits are not offset by the potential for sensitization.
This antioxidant hydration spray was formulated specifically to help balance the skin's oil production and pH. Gives all the hydration you would expect from a facial spritz, and is also packed full of ingredients that help to battle free radical and microbial damage.

The Jane Iredale line primarily features its mineral makeup, along with several other cosmetics. The skin-care selection from Jane Iredale is limited to a few ancillary products, although a couple of them are definite options if you're a fan of this line.
For more information about Jane Iredale, call (800) 869-9420 or visit the Web site at www.janeiredale.com.
Iredale's color line is advertised as "The Skin Care Makeup," but it isn't skin-care-like at all, at least not in the way you may imagine. Ingredients like boron nitride, mica, and zinc stearate (also known as zinc soap) have no benefit for skin, and they are the primary ingredients of Iredale's loose powders. A few of the products do include mineral-based, gentle sunscreens and a smattering of antioxidants (though the packaging will render them unstable after opening). The ingredient lists are also relatively short, which is beneficial for those with sensitivities, but that's about as skin-caring as this line gets.
You do need to be wary of some of Iredale's questionable claims, such as "Because our bases are concentrated pigment, the coverage we can achieve is far superior to normal makeup with a minimum amount of product. This is why mineral makeup should always look sheer and natural." These powders can be applied sheer, but the very nature of these ingredients results in products that are heavy-textured and that, like it or not, can look powdery and "made-up" on the skin. This is especially true if you have any dry patches, because these mineral powders, which also claim to "trap moisture," will exacerbate any dryness and can look caked and change color over very oily areas. Actually they do trap moisture, but they trap it away from the skin. That's the nature of any powdered mineral - they are absorbent and as a result can be drying.
Iredale denigrates talc, dismissing it as cheap filler material and an irritant, but talc is the essential backbone for a number of the most luxurious-feeling powders you will find, some of which have a softness and virtually seamless finish on the skin that other lines (including Iredale's) should envy. And talc is not irritating, at least not any more than the mica Iredale chose to use in its place. Even more significant, talc is a natural ingredient and a mineral. Despite this, all of Iredale's claims revolving around how mineral makeups are better for skin are marketing hype to the max. The most important element of her mineral makeup is the overall gentle, fragrance-free formula that provides outstanding sun protection.
If the concept of a powdered makeup different from the traditional talc-based powders you've seen at the cosmetics counters or drugstores appeals to you, then this line presents some fine choices. We would recommend using caution when you read (or are told) about the inflated benefits of some rather ordinary but nevertheless effective ingredients. However, with a few exceptions, there is certainly nothing in these straightforward formulations that's harmful or irritating, and that's always beneficial.

Last night we braved the crowdsand the coldfor the Isabel Marant for H&M shopping event at their 5th Avenue flagship. While the esteemed designer couldn't make it to New YorkMila Jovovich was on hand as one of the faces and ambassadors of the collaboration. After she secured some clothes for her daughter, we caught up with the supermodel to talk about her dream designer collaborator and upcoming holiday plans.
I have to say I love all the cableknits and the oversize coats. But then I also really like the gold lame pieces, like the dress I'm wearing. It's hard to really say. That's what I love about Isabelthere's so many references going onit's like Peru meets the '60s meets Studio 54. You're like, "what?" but it works!
I have a friend named David Michael, who's an amazing designer, and I would love to work with him on something. Or Isabel of course!
I think probably for me I would do a lot of structured pieces, I'm very into the japanese sensibility. Oversize coats and baggy trousers.
I love rolled up denim, flat shoes, a t-shirt and a nice sweater. Casual but chic, it has an effortless quality to it.
I have one coat, I was gifted from Chanelit's like $10,000. That's a keeper. I saw it before I took a trip for them, and I grabbed it, I was like, "I'm gonna need this," and they let me keep it! I couldn't believe it.
I've been really into boyfriend blazers, I like mixing tweeds with floral fabrics. The masculine and feminine look.
It has to start from the inside. I've been juicing like crazy, vegetable juice all day longinstead of drinking coffee. I love green juice, and it's amazing how much more energy I have, my skin looks better. Cleansing and moisturizing every morning and night is also really important, but you can't just depend on your creams. I have to do more for the inside so it shows on the outside.
My family and I are gonna stay home for Christmas and go skiing for New Years. It's the 2nd year for my daughter, and she loved it last yearso we don't want her to lose everything she's learned.
Bringing all 45 members of my crazy family together, and watching them argue is super awesome. It's good to do it just once a year.

Don't Get 'Catfished!'
Nev and Max, the guys behind Catfish: The TV Show, talk to Seventeen about the Manti Te'o hoax and the tell-tale signs that your online crush is a fake.
By Emily Laurence
The Low-Down On Manti Te'o
When news broke that Manti Te'o, Notre Dame's star football player, had been supposedly duped by an online relationship, Catfish: The TV Show creators Nev and Max weren't surprised. Manti had been in a long distance relationship with a girl named Lennay, who he initially met on Twitter. Though they talked on the phone for years, they never met in person because Lennay was allegedly in the hospital with cancer complications. Then, Manti got the message that Lennay had died. He was heartbroken.
But the story took an even darker turn when it was revealed that Lennay never existed: Her Twitter and Facebook profiles were created by Ronaiah Tuiasosopo, an acquaintance of Manti's who has also been accused of impersonating the voice of Lennay. When Seventeen heard about the story, we gave Nev and Max a call to get their reaction, and advice on how to spot a fake online.

Mark Webber has warned his team-mate Sebastian Vettel that he needs to wrap up the Championship in Austin as the season-ending race in Brazil can be a lottery.
Vettel currently holds a 10-point lead over title rival Fernando Alonso and can secure his third Championship in a row at this weekend's US Grand Prix. Should the Red Bull driver win the race, Alonso needs to finish at least fourth to keep the Championship alive.
Securing such an advantage may be tough, as aside from two retirements, Alonso last finished out of the top five in Bahrain in April. However, even if there remains a mathematical chance that Alonso can win the title in Brazil, Webber knows the opportunity needs to be as slim as possible as the weather could cause havoc with proceedings.
''Clearly, Austin's a very important weekend because Brazil can throw up some 'funnies','' he is quoted as saying by Western Australia Today. ''There can be a bit of rain around there, so that's a bit more of a nervous venue. I'm not saying it can't rain at Austin, but Brazil can be incredibly inconsistent with the weather, so that might come into the mix.''
While the battle between Vettel and Alonso is of course dominating much of the pre-race talk, Webber warns that actual jockeying for position between the two may not materialise.
''They may not even see each other on-track - that's the way it turns out sometimes,'' said the Australian. ''It's a bit like an FA Cup final or the rugby league grand final - sometimes it doesn't live up to the hype.''
Webber may not be able to win the Championship himself but he is hopeful of still having a major impact on how matters unfold.
''Hopefully I'll have a good grandstand seat,'' he mused.
''I'll be right in there - we have been at the past few events. Obviously, Abu Dhabi was a bit of a joke, but in the other ones recently we've been right there and I'm looking forward to finishing the season off with some good, really good results.
''And if I manage to see some of the racing unfold close by, then I'll watch how it all turns out. If it's in my mirrors, all the better; if it's just in front, we'll see what happens.''

Creamy Potato-Bacon Chowder
|Kristen J. Gough
|6-8 slices of bacon
4 medium-sized potatoes (I prefer red ones, but any variety will do)
1 medium onion
1 1/2 cups milk (or more if you want the chowder thinner)
1 can cream of chicken soup (or mushroom)
1 can of corn
3/4 cup sour cream
Salt and pepper to taste
Cheddar cheese, grated (optional)
|In the original recipe, you fry the raw, diced potatoes in the bacon until they become tender. After years of trying, I've never found that the potatoes get soft enough, so I add another step. Trust me, it's worth one additional easy-to-clean pan! I've streamlined this recipe so that start to finish, your meal should be ready in about 30 minutes.
First, add a medium-sized pot of salted water to the stovetop. Peel and dice your potatoes until they're about the size of a kernel of corn. If you can't get them that small, don't worry; just remember that it will take more time for them to cook in the boiling water. The smaller the potato, the faster it'll cook. I boil the potatoes until they're tender when pierced with a fork.
While your potatoes are boiling, dice the onion and cut the bacon into 1/4-inch strips. I usually just cut them with my kitchen scissors. Once your potatoes are halfway cooked (in the other pan), add bacon to a large, heavy-bottomed pan. Cook the bacon until almost crisp; then, add your onions. Keep your eye on the potatoes; drain them once they're tender. With the bacon cooked through and the onions sauteed until they're translucent, you're ready to add the potatoes. Cook those as you would hash browns – stirring frequently and allowing the sides to brown. Add salt and pepper as you saute the potatoes.
Add the milk and cream soup to the bacon-potato mixture. Bring to a gentle boil and stir. Drain the corn and then toss it in. Reduce the heat and bring the chowder to a slow simmer. Stir in the sour cream. That's it! I like to top each serving with shredded cheese. Also, you can make this chowder a day ahead – it reheats beautifully.

What has France given the world?
|The bikini, a French invention, was banned in some U.S. cities when it was introduced here in the late 1940s.
French actor Gerard Depardieu said "au revoir" to his country, and becoming a Russian citizen, to escape high taxes in his native land. Here are some other things the French have given the world:
1) The metric system was based on a French system unveiled in 1799. It is used around the world but never took off in popularity for household usage in the U.S.

Double Check your key bindings on the Camera Zoom.
Also UI Scale seems to affect the camera zoom in a way.

First off, I gotta say I love this UI.
I'm just wondering what's the name of the Addon for the classtimers above the target. It's a bit off when used in 1920x1200.
Thanks in forehand
is the nameplate fix addon still needed, didnt Blizz fix it already or?
I love this UI but i am having some problems, the add on that tells you the Mobs health points and a health bar dissappeared after the first day i used it. It worked the first day but when i logged on the next day they did not work, which mod uses that? and how might i fix it? Also I can not get the grid bars tomove or work properlly, i have able to adjust their size but i am not abler to move them where i want. Please help. Thanks so much.
really nice and clean UI but im having some trouble and hoped someone could shed some light into it. Almost everything seems to be looking fine after i rearranged it a bit to fit my resolution but my buffs are still "vanilla wow'd" lol. They are still at the top next to the map and also im not sure if this is supposed to happen, but when i target myself or someone else, the buffs appear very large under the threatplate targetname bar. i read in this thread that the buffs were under the Quartz feature and i tried messing around with the options but couldnt find anything. Any help would be appreciated Thanks!
This may be a silly question but is there any way to get the experience bar to show up? (or even a value).
I really like the clean look of this UI, but leveling in cata without an experience bar is strangely offsetting.
Edit: Found it under Pitbull

WoWScrnShot_011111_035050.jpg Hello, I am using this UI, actually part of it, havent finished programing it all but there is one thing I have been trying to remove for about 2 hours and I cant find how. its that small bars over my own hp at the left corner where you can read sunder armor. the picture includes my addons, thanks in advance for helping.
That's Quarz, more specifically swingtimer & mirrorsomething enabled..
WoWScrnShot_021111_213625.jpgHaving some trouble setting up this UI, I do everything your directions say, And log in and everything is in the middle ect. But when I switch everything to "Default" profiles I see no change.
Is there anything Im doing wrong?
Im a veteran tank , And would love to have this as my new UI, Find its everything Im looking for.
*EDIT I deleted, and Re-installed, Now going to go play with the sizing of it to fit my Screen and resolution.
Looking great already!

I do Have one question, What Addon is controlling The Debuffs that we are putting on the target. In the screen shot the thing im talking about is right above the target frame .
i have some issues, probably just my inexperince with using these particular add-ons. but, i watched all your videos on youtube. one thing i really like is how the mobs health bar color changes depending on threat. I can't seem to figure out how to do this. also, i cant seem to figure out how to move the timer bars. everything else has worked fantastic, and has certainly helped me with be a more comfortable tank.
Hi there - i used these addons and noticed on highest settings in game, my fps dropped from 60 to 30. When i turned all game settings down to lowest - it didnt change from 30. When i didnt use these addons i was back to 60fps - what am i doing wrong??
Best Regards ALL

I like to use a thin coating, and it give my lips a nice golden shimmer. The first day I bought it I received many compliments! And it last quite a long time and isn't very drying, although I do usually use lip balm with it, but that's mainly because I'm a lip balm addict and apply it every 10 mins. less"

Q:Is this more of a lip stain or i does it actually have a lip stick texture? I prefer stains.Asked on 7/30/2012 by Connie
1 answer
A:It's not a stain, but it doesn't have the texture of a lip stick, either. I would probably describe it as a highly pigmented lip gloss. After the initial application, it "settles" into the lip and feels more like a stain (it won't wipe off the color the way that lipstick can), but the first bit is more like a gloss. This has the same base as the Ultrabalm, so if you have had a chance to try that, you will know what to expect!Answered on 7/31/2012 by Laura from LUSH

Upon his Ferrari return, Kimi Raikkonen will be looking to repeat his 2007 Australian GP feat by winning the first race in his new Ferrari stint.
Back in 2007, Raikkonen joined an elite group that now includes Juan Manuel Fangio, Mario Andretti and Fernando Alonso by winning on his Ferrari debut.
It was a great grand prix for the Finn and kick started his Championship quest, which concluded with a victory at the season-ending Brazilian GP and a World title.
"I remember very well my first win with Ferrari," Raikkonen told www.ferrari.com. "It couldn't have been a better start to my seventh year in Formula 1, with a dominant win from pole.
"Winning always feels great for me. Nothing could be better. Last year, we also managed to win, which certainly surprised people because unlike 2007, at Lotus we weren't favourites.
"So, if I had to compare the two Australian wins, somehow, winning it last year for the second time felt even a little bit nicer after such a difficult pre-season testing period.
"Australia is a great place to start the season, Melbourne is a wonderful city and, for us Europeans it always feels a bit special to be in this different part of the world. Only the weather is not always that nice.
"I can remember only one GP here where there was sunshine all the time. Of course, I'd prefer dry and hot weekends, especially this year with a completely new car and so many technical aspects still to be understood completely."
However, whether the 34-year-old and his team-mate Alonso will be in line for this year's Australian GP win is anyone's guess.
"Making predictions has never been my habit," said Raikkonen, "and this year there is even more reason not to.
"We are heading Down Under with brand new cars and I reckon it is wide open and anything can happen. In Maranello, we have worked hard and the F14 T seems to be a good car, but the track will tell who is quickest.
"When we start running to see where we are, we will at least have some data to give us a starting point."

Two worlds collide: Denyse Schmidt at JoAnn Fabrics
32 comments:
Not at my Joann's :o( I just called and it is not on the truck today! I will be stalking them :o)ReplyDelete
Yipeee :) I'm really glad to hear it's good quality! I worried about that when I heard they were carrying her fabric!ReplyDelete
yessss! my nearest joanns is an hour drive away. :( I called and they didn't have it in yet, I'm waiting - impatiently, like a fabric stalker.ReplyDelete
My hubs is presently at Joann's buying me some! He happened to be in the town where the store is located today. Yeah!ReplyDelete
I love the reds! Also the Lecien red and white print below. Beautiful.ReplyDelete
I feel for you soccer mom. I when I signed my daughter up for T ball a few years ago I said I could be assistant coach if they needed me (I am a good organizer, even if I can't throw a ball) and I ended up being coach. Oh, and I was 5 months pregnant. I didn't feel like I made a very good coach, but figured that if anyone had a problem with it, then I would be more than happy to let them coach. :)
Thanks for the heads up. I won't buy fabric at our Joann's though. They cheat us. Sad to say. They stretch the fabric and then cut it so close to their thumb they practically cut it. When I ask them to remeasure always they have been short. So sad. We have two other shops in town that give 3 to 4 inches more over what we ask for. Generosity pays off as that is where I buy my fabric. (And MANY other quilters from my groups).Notions with a coupon are what I go to Joann's for.ReplyDelete
I'm going to check out the Joann Fabrics near me this afternoon. I'm not that familiar with all the designers yet, are there others that are regularly carried at Joann's?ReplyDelete
i've found out this morning on flickr...and immediately posted a shoutout on my blog to us friends...too bad joann's isn't selling it on their website. but then, they don't ship internationally :(.ReplyDelete
my fingers are crossed that someone will listen ...because these fabrics are calling my name, too!
I will admit I bought 12 yards of the fabric today! Nice quality very like her other lines....ReplyDelete
Mine doesn't have it either....ReplyDelete
I went today, and there was NO sign of this fabric anywhere. And we have an ETC store :-(ReplyDelete
Soooo cute!! I'm going to have to get over there. Wishbit wasn't so far away!ReplyDelete
I retract my previous statement! I have some and it is beautiful! Good color and quality! Amy, it is worth the drive :o)ReplyDelete
I saw Lori's post this morning and was heading to my closest Jo-Ann's (1/2 drive) today anyways. I didn't ask but I did not see any of it anywhere! I too will be stalking!:) Thanks Amy!:)ReplyDelete
Amy, I bought a bunch of it at the Orem store this morning. It's so pretty in person!ReplyDelete
For anyone that's interested here's a group on Flickr where people have been listing which stores they've found it at (in the discussion threads)
I didn't like the last line at all. But this stuff is beautiful! I was just there yesterday, but I wasn't looking for it. I may have to go back tonight!ReplyDelete
I never find bright and cheery fabric at my Joann's. All they have in the fine quilting area is dark and not my type.ReplyDelete
We have a new Joann's closer to my house. Yippee! Wonder if they are carrying her fabric. Will have to check!ReplyDelete
So vintage! So yummy!ReplyDelete
I agree about the Greenfield too- not my thing! How dare we! ;)
I was at Joanns yesterday afternoon and saw some gorgeous prints. And wouldn't you know it, they were hers. The fabric feels like butter, it is so incredibly soft! Now I wish I had bought some of it.... I better wait for some more coupons though :)ReplyDelete
Ok - I bought some. I could not resist.ReplyDelete
But I don't think the base fabric is as nice - the weave is not as tight as I am used to from quilt-shop-cottons. But - it is drapier. Also - it is priced at $10/yd - which I expect at a quilt shop (with better service, better cuts, no "take a number") - but there are 50% off coupons this week/weekend.
Still - not sure if I will go get some other prints. It just is not as thick/nice a base fabric as KJR or HV.
You know I work there - so of course when I saw them, I about died! I didn't even realize they were Denyse Schmidt cuz it just said "DS" on the end ofthe bolt and i didn't take a close look. !!! wow - yay!!ReplyDelete
Oh, that is amazing!!! And ditto on the Greenfield Hill, by the way.ReplyDelete
Can I bribe you? We don't have JoAnn's up in Canada....would you be willing to buy extra when you go on Monday and sell it to me via your etsy shop?? I would loooooove to get my hands on some! Fully serious here :-)
My friend went shopping yesterday and bought some of everything they had, for both of us (I LOVE friends like that). She went back today and all the dots are gone. Gone! I heard there are 21 prints and we are missing five of them, but still, having 16 is pretty good!ReplyDelete
I am so glad I saw this post. I went to both of our Joann's (in Orlando) and I think I have the entire line - 21 prints. Love these!!!ReplyDelete
Some more pictures are towards the bottom of my latest post
This comment has been removed by the author.ReplyDelete
It's really pretty. But who would ever have thought fabric at Joanns would be $9.99 a yard!?!?! Faint.ReplyDelete
I agree with Marilyn. The cutting thing is ridiculous. Once they cut off the last 1" of fabric on the end of the bolt, rather than including it in my (five yard) purchase.ReplyDelete
I have mixed feelings about this, as I think our little quilt shops should be the places we go for fabrics--or reputable online shops. I am not a fan of JoAnn's quilt fabrics!
I went to the Joann's near where I live and they only had part of the line. I purchased small amounts because I wasn't sure about whether I liked it or not...I wish they would have had all of the line because I couldn't purchase the tiles and that was what I really wanted!!ReplyDelete
What section is everyone finding these fabrics in? I went yesterday (Melbourne, FL) and couldn't find any - and the folks that work there couldn't help me. Are they mixed in with the calicos on the walls? Thanks!ReplyDelete
I just went to JoAnn's =D I'm new to sewing, so looking online is even more overwhelming than in person! I picked up a few yards of this fabric (since I don't have any) and it is soooo soft!! There wasn't very much of it though...only about 1/2 of a small shelf, but the shelf below was empty, so maybe they are getting more?ReplyDelete
Any Aussie quilters who are looking for this fabric - I found it at Spotlight for AU$16.99 (with 20% off!). I was so excited!ReplyDelete
Amy - I love your blog, I've only just started quilting and I'm 30 and my friends think it's a hobby for grannies :) Thanks for sharing.

Holy fucking shit, half of the new album is ridiculously good. If you're not into Mariqueens voice, no worries, its totally buried, glitched and blurred in the newest stuff. Check these tracks out:
The Wake Up
And the Sky Began to Srceam
Welcome Oblivion
On the Wing (This one was on the last EP too)
Yes, I know how silly it sounds coming from a sn like |\| | |/|, but I'm telling you, they're going to melt minds. If they're playing at the same time as Four Tet I think I'll have a mental break down!
Front half was painful for me. Second half was pretty ace stuff that should be very good live.
"Sheridan attended art school at New York's Pratt Institute for one year before being hired at age 19 by Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor in 1999, on the merits of a Nine Inch Nails fansite he created during high school. He was initially hired to maintain the newly-launched official Nine Inch Nails website. Since then he has taken over as art director for the band, contributing photography, web design, album covers, music videos, live tour visuals, and two live concert films."
Check out Sleeping is Giving in for great mixes and other cool stuff
No it's like Trent's version of Puscifer. May May has said Puscifer is what Tapeworm woulda/coulda been, pretty big bummer that all fell through. T-Rez co-wrote the Puscifer track "Potions."
From NIN-wiki:
On twitter, he went on to practically confirm that this track was an unused Tapeworm track.
[sic]2 conclude if i may. If u HATE Potions, hate US not Trent. We wrote it together, but PUSCIFER produced it. It was my wedding present 2 him.
the first HTDA stuff i heard was very APC ish. bringing back that whole alternative-dark-goth-chic thing. didnt immeadiately turn me on at all, but i do see what you mean about the puscifer analogy. but hey, we get maynard in some capacity. getting trent without hit vocals doesnt really count i dont think.
He sings every now and then

The HPV Vaccine: Access and Use in the U.S.
The Food and Drug Administration has approved two vaccines against infection by certain strains of human papillomavirus (HPV), the most common sexually transmitted infection in the United States. Initially, the vaccines were recommended only for girls and young women, but in 2011 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention broadened them to include boys and young men. This fact sheet discusses HPV and cancers related to the virus, use of the HPV vaccines for both females and males, and insurance coverage and access to the vaccines.

Zend_Markup should provide an extensible way to tokenize and render lightweight markup languages, like BBcode and Textile.
4. Dependencies on Other Framework Components
- Zend_Exception
- Zend_Filter
- Zend_Loader_PluginLoader
5. Theory of Operation
Zend_Markup does tokenize and render lightweight markup languages into another format. Because there are a lot of lightweight markup languages, it should be compatible with the most important languages. It should also be possible to create your own Parsers.
Zend_Markup consists of parsers and renderers. A parser is splitting the input text into an array with all the information it could extract out of the input text.
For example, the Zend_Markup_Parser_Bbcode parser should produce this array from the string '[tag="a" attr=val]value[/tag]':
A renderer does loop trough the generated array, and uses the provided information to generate a value.
6. Milestones / Tasks
- Milestone 1: [DONE] Create the proposal
- Milestone 2: [DONE] Initial class design
- Milestone 3: [DONE] Submit the proposal for community review
- Milestone 4: [DONE] Create working prototype (see the bottom of this proposal)

According to the coding guidelines, Bbcode should be BbCode. Also would be better to use attribute(s) instead of attr(s).

Feb 08, 2008

That's a pretty good idea, when i'm back from work i'm going to change that.

In the beginning, only tokenizers for BBcode and MediaWiki should be available. But you can still write your own tokenizer for any language. And if you would like, you can also help me with a tokenizer for Markdown.

But I think I will write a tokenizer for Markdown later, but first I'm going to build my current ideas of Zend_TextParser.

Feb 13, 2008

Hi,

This looks really interesting, I've actually been thinking about a similar idea. One thing I thought of is parsing the given mark-up into a DOMDocument first, and then writing that back out as HTML. This would allow you to convert any mark-up, to any other mark-up, and give you a common, standard, in-between format. Something like:

<ac:macro ac:name="code"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[
"BBCode" -> BBCode Tokenizer & Parser -> (DOMDocument) -> saveHTML() // get HTML output
-> MediaWiki Renderer -> "MediaWiki"
-> Textile Renderer -> "Textile"

And so on. Of course I have no idea how to write tokenizers or parsers (something I'm trying to learn), so I can't really do this, but I thought I'd make the suggestion.

Feb 16, 2008

Hi Jack,

Can you explain your idea for using DOMDocument further with an exaple how you should use it? Now it looks like it does have a lot of unnecessary overhead.

And writing tokenizers isn't very hard, you can look at the interface for the return format.

Feb 19, 2008

Hi Pieter,

Well my general idea was that rather than reading in BBCode, and then directly writing that back out as HTML, you could instead parse the BBCode, and then store it in a standard intermediary format, something that could for instance be serialized and then saved into a database. Making this format an extension of DOMDocument, would allow for modifications to the DOM, and allow people to do all sorts of other processing on the markup. This is roughly how it could work:

<ac:macro ac:name="code"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[
$parser = new Zend_TextParser_BBCode_Parser();
$dom = $parser->parse('[b][i]some text[/b][/i] some text');
// to get HTML you'd then do
echo $dom->saveHTML();
// or you could render it back out as another format
$renderer = new Zend_TextParser_Textile_Renderer();
echo $renderer->render($dom);

And say for instance it were a news article with various header tags, if the mark-up was available as a DOMDocument object, someone could very easily scan through it (manually or via XPath), and build a table of contents based on the header tags, in an OO fashion. And there are all sorts of other possibilities.

You also have the advantage of not having to parse and render the mark-up every time you need it. If for example you stored the serialized version of the DOM object in your database, rather than the raw BBCode, you only need to render it each time.

Of course I've no idea what the overheads would be like by doing this, but it's just an idea. In my mind it seems quite tidy to have the data in a standard, almost mark-up language agnostic format.

Feb 19, 2008

Also, using DOMDocument allows you to write the mark-up back out as XML (if you wanted it as XHTML), and the loadHTML() method, allows you to parse even badly formed HTML. You could for example load in an external document (without worrying if it's valid), and then write that back out as BBCode. Like:

<ac:macro ac:name="code"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[
$dom = new DOMDocument();
$renderer = new Zend_TextParser_BBCode_Renderer();
echo $renderer->render($dom);

I'm probably getting carried away with the examples here, but I'm sure you can see the flexibility that using DOMDocument introduces.

Oct 05, 2009

Hi Jack,

There are still some problems when you are using DOMDocument. Because many developers like to have [code] tags on their sites with syntax highlighting. And as you know, it is very hard to remove syntax highlighting, and that isn't the task of a renderer. Oke, it would be possible, but then it does have a really huge overhead.

Also, your example, that should be possible later, in this form:

<ac:macro ac:name="code"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[
$html = Zend_TextParser::factory('html', 'bbcode');
echo $html->render(file_get_contents('http://example.com'));

Also, using DOMDdocument means that you have to implement a renderer into a tokenizer, which makes tokenizers a lot more complicated. And it doesn't really conform to the framework's DRY and KISS standards.

Mar 30, 2008

A few comments:

A tokenizer implies that there is a set of Tokens that are generated. Does this mean that there is a standard set of tokens that will be shared by all parsers and generators?

How are token tree's handled? For example <ac:link><ri:page ri:content-title="b" /></ac:link><ac:link><ri:page ri:content-title="i" /></ac:link>Foo<ac:link><ri:page ri:content-title="/i" /></ac:link><ac:link><ri:page ri:content-title="/b" /></ac:link> implies that there is a token for bold with contents "<ac:link><ri:page ri:content-title="i" /></ac:link>Foo<ac:link><ri:page ri:content-title="/i" /></ac:link>".. but that further implies there is a token within it for italic with contents "Foo"

Will tokenized input be able to be serialized for output in any format that a renderer is available for?

Just a few question to get started <ac:emoticon ac:name="wink" />

Mar 30, 2008

I don't have much time, so I will only answer you last question, I will answer the other two later.

Yes, you can pass the same tokenizer output to any renderer.

May 17, 2008

Well, a tokenizer generates an array like described in "Theory of Operation". This is totally independent of the renderer, so there is a little problem with tokenizers like the MediaWiki tokenizer. For example, if you pass "''some text''" to the MediaWiki tokenizer, it will output an array with three tokens. The first token has the tagname "i" and contains "''", it also defines "''" as the stopper. The second token does only contain "some text". And the third token contains exactly the same information as the first token.

There are also some tokens defined in the MediaWiki tokenizer, which aren't supported by a renderer. This is because a renderer isn't able to gather information like the signature of the current user. But you can still use '~~~' with a MediaWiki tokenizer, and if you define a new tag (look to UC-02), single-replace callback (not yet implemented!) with the name 'signature', then it will work fine <ac:emoticon ac:name="wink" />.

Well, token-trees are handled very simple. For example, if we take an example like "[b]...[i]...[/b]...', it will output something like: ".........". This is, because the renderer first sees the '[b]' token, then it will add all the text to a string until the '[i]' token, there it will create another string for the italic tag. All the text will be added to the italic tag until the '[/b]' tag is found. There it will first end the italic tag, and add it to the bold tag, which is also closed. After that, it will restart the italic tag with exactly the same parameters and add it to the return string.

<ac:macro ac:name="note"><ac:parameter ac:name="title">Zend Official Response</ac:parameter><ac:rich-text-body>

This proposal is currently accepted into the Zend Laboratory as we'd like to see the following points explored and developed:

Move Zend_TextParser into the Zend_Text_Parser namespaces (there will be other Zend_Text proposals in this space as well)

We need to understand the use cases better with respect to what this component WILL NOT provide (See section 3 above), currently, this proposal is quite open ended.

We need to understand better the method that will be implemented to "parse".

Other areas we'd like to explore:

Currently, it seems as though the approach is token replacement

How will the Parser handle non-well-formed data

What relationship will this have with DomDocument

Oct 25, 2008

It'd be great if you could define languages in a declarative way. Seems like it would make it easier for users to add or extend their own.

Taking this to an extreme, one would define something like BBCode in BNF, then have a parser generator (adapted from any of the C ones) spit out a parser on initial load. Parsing would be pretty darn fast in that case.

Now, you can meet somewhere in the middle on this. Defining each token in its own object, putting them in a stack, and then transforming the text by popping off the tokens would potentially allow a declarative syntax.

What I'm thinking is something like this:

<ac:macro ac:name="code"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[
class Zend_Markup_Language_BBCode
public function defineTokens(Zend_Markup_Lexer $lexer)Unknown macro: { $lexer->addToken(...); }
Oct 25, 2008

That is a pretty good idea. But I think there is a problem. My Bbcode parser looks to Bbcode as a language like SGML or XML. The tags don't have any meaning at all (because that part is done by the renderer). But languages like Textile are a bit different, they have tokens like '*' which defines bold text or '_' which defines italics text.

Oct 25, 2008

I'm not sure about the benefit of decoupling the "renderer" (that is, the transformer) if you don't put it to good use: allow transformations between markup languages. That is, allow transformations between Textile and Markdown, for instance.

After all, most of these languages are tied directly to HTML. I'm not sure if there is any meaning in alternate transformations of BBCode, for instance. Obviously a data interchange format like JSON is meaningless, so we're talking about presentation. BBCode => PDF, for instance. But most of these formats permit HTML embedded in the text... translating some but not all of the code to PDF format is not helpful. These lightweight markup languages were designed for HTML, so why not couple them to HTML?

One difficulty with decoupling is that you don't have a one-to-one correspondence. Take Markdown's block quote for instance:

<ac:macro ac:name="code"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[
> Zend Framework (ZF) is an open source framework for developing web

> object-oriented code. The component structure of ZF is somewhat
> unique; each component is designed with few dependencies on other
> components. This loosely coupled architecture allows developers to
> use components individually. We often call this a "use-at-will"

This translates to:

<ac:macro ac:name="code"><ac:plain-text-body><![CDATA[

Oct 26, 2008

That is the whole point of my idea, making it possible to not only go from Textile/Bbcode/Markdown to HTML, but also transformations like Textile to Bbcode. Well, initially not all combinations will be possible, because the tranformationUnknown macro: {insert-favorite-language}
to HTML is the most important part.

And yes, it is sometimes pretty hard to write a parser so it will be compatible with the renderers. But if you want to allow transformations between the languages, without a lot of copy-paste, I think this is the best idea.

Nov 12, 2008

Is it normal that on the repository nothing is inside the Rendered directory ?

Where could I find the basic html rendered class ?

Nov 13, 2008

Yes that is normal, since I decided to rewrite everything, and I still haven't found any time to create a renderer.

Nov 13, 2008

ok I understand.

When do you think you can release a first draft ?

As I m very interesting to use it.

Nov 13, 2008

Currently, I think that it will be this weekend. But if you are really interested in that, you should look to revisions before 12121. The old Zend_TextParser code was removed in that revision.

Nov 25, 2008

This parser should also allow for special markup handling. As you are yet parsing it into a tree structure, one should be able to mark elements as not beeing allowed in other elements. For example. <ac:link><ri:page ri:content-title="code" /></ac:link> or <ac:link><ri:page ri:content-title="blockquote" /></ac:link> tag should not be allowed within a <ac:link><ri:page ri:content-title="url" /></ac:link> tag.

Also you should allow paragraphhandling instead of simple nl2br conversion. If you didn't yet, take a look at Chrisitan Seiler's BBCode Parser:

http://www.christian-seiler.de/projekte/php/bbcode/index_en.html

Nov 26, 2008

About the 'special markup handling', that is already in place. It is what you should call context-awareness. Currently, you can specify which tag is allowed inside an other tag, but I am not sure if that is already checked into SVN.

The paragraph handling is quite interesting. It is not that hard to realize.

Also, I have looked to Chrisitan Seiler's BBCode parser fore several times <ac:emoticon ac:name="wink" />.

Nov 26, 2008

I m trying to get Zend_markup working on my website but I have some problems to implement it.

below are the tags that I would like to use:

[h1]test[/h1]

[list]

[*]toto est en bateau

[/list]

[url]http://example.org[/url]

no one of these tags except "list" element is working

Here is what I did:

$bbCode = Zend_Markup::factory('BbCode', 'Html');

$allowedIn = array('i', 'u', 's', 'b');

$allowsInside = array('i', 'u', 's', 'b');

$bbCode->addTag('h1', Zend_Markup::REPLACE, array('start' => '
', 'end' => '
'), $allowedIn, $allowsInside);

$bbCode->addTag('*', Zend_Markup::REPLACE, array('start' => '
', 'end' => '
'), array("list"), $allowsInside);

$bbCode->addTag('list', Zend_Markup::REPLACE, array('start' => '
', 'end' => '
'), $allowedIn, array('*') );

$bbCode->render($texte ); //the output is exactly the same as the input

Can someone help me?

Nov 26, 2008

Currently, the factory is not tested, so I think there will be some issues with that. And the name of the file (and the last part of the classname) is Bbcode, not BbCode.

Also, I have a known issue in my bbcode tokenizer, the '[*]' tag will not parse correctly. And the '$allowedIn' and '$allowsInside' parameters are not there currently.

You should also know that this is pretty much a development snapshot, not near to production-ready. And there could be a lot of API changes in the future without any notification.

Jan 09, 2009
<ac:macro ac:name="note"><ac:parameter ac:name="title">Zend Official Response</ac:parameter><ac:rich-text-body>

We like the direction in which this is taking shape. This component is approved for development in the Standard Incubator.

Issues as mentioned on the IRC channel we'd like to see explored while in the incubator:

Parsers generate a token tree

There is a standard set of Tokens defined that must be implemented by all parsers, in addition to their own Custom tokens, this would provide maximum compatibility between parsers and generators.

Parsers should have some element of modes/error settings to determine if the character stream supplied is parsable and/or fixable.

Mar 18, 2009

What is the status of this proposal? We'd love to include it in the 1.8 release.

Jul 26, 2009

Since it doesn't look like the author is pursuing this any longer, I started writing tests for Zend_Markup tonight. If nothing has happened, I'd be willing to take on the responsibility of getting it done.

Jul 29, 2009

I emailed the author a while back and he said he was still working on this. I haven't seen much activity in svn though. I'd love to see this component.

Aug 05, 2009

Yep, i am still working on this.

The recent lack of activity is probably a result of my vacation in france. I am just back for a few hours, so give me some time to pull everything back together here, and then I will continue to work on a basic HTML renderer.

The ezComponents are offering also a very interesting "Document" component which is able to do transformations between RST (ReStructured text), XHTML, Docbook, ez Publish XML markup, and Wiki markup languages, like: Creole, Dokuwiki and Confluence. http://ezcomponents.org/docs/tutorials/Document

Dec 22, 2009

I would like to find out if I can merge Zend_Phaml (Zend_Haml) into this project, it is an implementation of HAML for PHP that seems to be a good fit. Can someone guide me on this?

Dec 22, 2009

I just looked fast into HAML, but it seems that there is a big difference between what HAML does, and what Zend_Markup does. Zend_Markup is for content, while HAML is for creating entire pages.

Yes, its the most important meal of the day. I have something different every day.
Thanks for all these responses!
It is hard for me to eat a good breakfast so this is all so inspiring! I'm going to add some of these ideas to my shopping list!
Sign up for my newsletter click HERE
CHRISTINA- You are my new favorite friend! I went to the store after the park playdate for my kid's bookclubs and I picked up about 8 lemons (unfortunately I didn't go to the organic store). I also picked up 5 grapefruit, because like you- I LOVE GRAPEFRUIT! Right when I got home, I cut my lemon in 1/2, added a squeeze of agave nector, and microwaved my distilled water for 30 seconds. It reminded me of the lemon cleanse, but didn't burn going down! It is so yummy! I look forward to drinking this daily! (But more than just breakfast!)
I really hate that I have Interstitial Cystitis and can't have lemons, oranges, grapefruit, or limes without being in a LOT of pain afterwards. If I could have them, I would definitely try this!
I used to do lemon water and really liked it, but it started eroding my teeth too bad and I had to stop. My enamel is very weak to begin with and the prolonged acid exposure was causing my enamel to break down and I was getting constant cavities and chips in my teeth (I use a prescription toothpaste now that is helping to strengthen my teeth)
I was really good about eating breakfast for a while when I was working out, but have been bad lately and not eating often enough. I usually eat oatmeal or a bowl of Special K, but I also love these Mini Spinach Quiches, especially with some mushroom or other veggies added and with Paprika instead of the hot sauce. They freeze and reheat in the microwave well! (I also recommend greasing the muffin tins instead of using paper liners)
Ginger, I LOVE the brown sugar pop tarts too!
Aww Wendy, that stinks! I would say for anyone concerned about enamel, USE A STRAW! It's what they suggest for sodas, too, since they really destroy teeth over time (as well as the rest of your body). Coca Cola to clean acid-covered car battery posts? Yes, we put that all over our teeth--ugh!
Sara: LOVE YOU, GRAPEFRUIT BUDDY!
I eat fruit almost every day, by itself. I usually buy the big fruit bowls at Target and just get it out every morning.
So, you want to know what's weird?? My kids- I keep telling them NOT to touch Mommy's grapefruit (or as the 3 year old says- Great Food), but they keep coming back and sneaking! I guess I'm just either blessed with super hungry kids (you know, the ones that never stop), or super non-picky eaters. They LOVE salad, too!
(Sorry to get WAY off subject! Thought you all NEEDED to know! )

Sylvia Hudson has performed on a float in the Thurmont Fourth of July parade, and as the Potato Lady, she has sung for pennies to buy potatoes for other countries.
The 90- year-old Lewistown resident has also been known to don a blond wig, black-sequined minidress and fishnet stockings to impersonate Tina Turner for assisted living groups and nursing homes.
She even dances to "Proud Mary."
"I like Tina Turner, and I like her singing," Hudson said. "Everywhere I go, even at my doctor's office, they call me 'Tina.'"
She appeared at her doctor's office dressed as Tina Turner for Halloween one year, and the nickname stuck.
"The doctor himself said, 'Wow, what legs!'" she said.
Hudson has been singing since she was a little girl. She still sings in her church choir every Sunday and has been a member of the Thurmont Canaries for 17 years.
"I just love to sing," Hudson said. "I sing by myself in the house, and I whistle. It makes me happy. I'm just a happy person. Life is something you must enjoy."
Hudson sang "On Eagle's Wings" for her granddaughter's wedding.
"It's my favorite because it's based on Psalm 91, and I began hearing it and liking it a long time ago," she said.
At 90, Hudson exudes the kind of energy you would expect from someone much younger, said the Rev. Elva Hurst, pastor of Lewistown United Methodist Church.
"She's the life of the community, and when she shows up on Praise Night, people can't wait to see what she's going to do, whether sing or whistle," Hurst said. "She whistles beautifully. When she's not here, it's a light going out. She's in real good shape and she's full of life. She gives us all energy and hope, and we say, 'If Sylvia can do it, we can.'"
When her daughter, Jeanne Graves, asked about a recent doctor's visit, Hudson said, "Oh, I have bad news. I'm in great health and I'm going to live a lot longer."
That response reflects her mother's humor and zest for life, Graves said. Hudson enjoys writing poems for special church and community events. The last line in her latest poem, written for her 90th birthday, which was celebrated Saturday, are: "Praise God, I made it to 90."
Except for high blood pressure and arthritis, Hudson said her health is OK, and she believes in the power of prayer.
"I would never have made it this far without prayer," said the chairwoman of the church's prayer chain.
She values her faith and her favorite Bible verse is, "I can do anything through God who strengthens me."
Sometimes she even walks to church.
"I can walk to church, but sometimes my legs don't want to, but I try," she said. "I walk up and down 14 steps seven times a day, and my doctor told me that's enough exercise."
People always nudge her to eat, Hudson said.
"I like to eat most everything, but my portions have gotten smaller as I've gotten older," Hudson said. "I like fruits and vegetables because they're good for you. Of course, everything is so expensive."
Hudson was born in Cottage City, in Prince George's County. She lived in Washington as a child and an adult before moving to Wheaton with her husband and children. She was a secretary for the Teamsters union and then became a stay-at-home mom. Dale Hudson, her husband of 61 years, died in 2009. Their two children are Graves, 63, and a son, Donald, 71.
Hudson gave up driving about three years ago, "instead of letting someone tell me it's time to stop driving."
The lady who loves to sing is looking forward to wearing a big hat on Easter Sunday.
"I've had a lot of interesting parishioners," Hurst said, "but Sylvia is one of a kind."

The site and design optimize daylighting and solar gain during the cold winter months while the windows were placed strategically to capture the prevailing breeze and allow hot air to escape during summer. SEED, a non-profit organization that provides permaculture education throughout South Africa, planted deciduous trees on the north side to provide shading in the summer months. But because deciduous trees lose their leaves in winter, solar gain is maximized when temperatures drop.
Built from recycled tires that are filled with sand and clay and packed with tin cans and a lime-cement plaster, the post-carbon homestead is clad in recycled shipping pallets; its thick walls provide excellent thermal massing that makes this pilot project comfortable year round. The photovoltaic panel provides a decent amount of energy and hot water, which could be increased if necessary, and rainwater capture tanks, a compost toilet and a natural grey water recycling system ensures that water is conserved as well.
Most notably, this has all been done with a limited $10,000 budget, which drowns out any argument that sustainable housing is not as affordable as new construction. Leigh Brown, SEED's Director, explained that the price would decrease if the government ordered a succession of these self-sufficient homes. Just one part of SEED's Urban Abundance Center, which is currently comprised of a mushroom-growing business, organic garden and an outdoor classroom, and located in a seriously oppressed neighborhood outside of the city, the post-carbon homestead is a beacon of shining light that gives us a whole boatload of hope for South Africa's future.

In a rare showing of bipartisanship in Washington, a bill that would allow religious institutions damaged by Hurricane Sandy to access FEMA money breezed through the House of Representatives. YNN's Washington, D.C. bureau reporter Michael Scotto has the story.
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- When Hurricane Sandy struck New York, it didn't spare religious institutions. But as they try to rebuild and help the community around them, they find themselves ineligible for federal disaster money, a situation Congress is now trying to fix with legislation.
"It basically helps provide funding for houses of worship that have suffered and have been taking care of our constituents in New York," Queens Representative Grace Meng said.
On Wednesday, the House passed a bill that would add religious institutions to the list of not for profits eligible for FEMA grants. It passed with bipartisan support, 354 to 72.
Those who voted no cited constitutional concerns related to the separation of church and state, including Congressman Jerry Nadler who said, "This bill would direct federal taxpayer dollars to the reconstruction of houses of worship. The idea that taxpayer money can be used to build a religious sanctuary or an altar has consistently been held unconstitutional."
Staten Island Congressman Michael Grimm disagreed.
"It's faith neutral," Grimm said. "It has nothing to do with influence or policy or religion, in and of itself. This really has to do with physical structures just being treated fairly."
Supporters also say that federal money has gone to rebuild religious institutions in the past, including churches damaged after the Oklahoma City bombing.
The bill still needs to make it past the Senate. But Congressman Grimm says that shouldn't be a problem. After all, it got bipartisan support in the House.

Can Small Group Organizing Save the Country?
At last, the election is over. No matter what your take is on the outcome, a season so full of deceitful ads and partisan bickering makes us all uncomfortable. Our democratic process is fraught with incivility, misinformation, and paranoia. People are voting their fears, from a place of deep insecurity.
It's hard to imagine how we can move from these realities to a new economy based on real wealth that serves people in harmony with the planet. At the moment, it seems impossible to agree on even small things, let along a big new vision for the future. How can we keep our spirits up in order to keep working when things are so daunting?
In fact, sources of strength are all around us, in our neighbors, friends, and co-workers, but we have to overcome our isolation to find them. Before joining a small group called a Common Security Club, I did my best on my own to be a good global citizen. I shopped locally, changed the light bulbs, and subscribed to a lot of social action mailing lists. I "clicked here" when directed, sending emails to decision-makers, and even making a few phone calls.
That was all well and good, but it wasn't very nourishing. The pressure and the responsibility of creating a new economy felt overwhelming, even paralyzing, and what I was doing felt silly and small.
Though it might sound old-fashioned, what I needed was a support group—a group of people to remind me that even small steps matter, and that I'm not alone in the fight. Without this kind of community, we get drained, we burn out, we sit out elections, or we vote our fears.
51 Ways to Spark a Commons Revolution
What you can do, alone and with others, to share life.
The simple truth is that there's only so far people can go on their own. We'll never create a new economy by just sitting in front of our computers "clicking here," or by thinking up perfect policy solutions. We need strong movements to turn these policy solutions into realities, and strong movements are made up of people who actually know and help each other.
There are many ways we can create these necessary human connections, and the Common Security Club approach is one. At clubs, groups of adults meet in person to learn, help each other, and engage in action. Hundreds are meeting across the country combat isolation and stave off burnout.
The CSC Network is supporting these clubs, providing tools and pathways to deepen organizational networks and reach disconnected individuals. We don't want anyone to feel overwhelmed or too tired to fight. We want everyone to have a support group. The work is too important, and too overwhelming, to attempt alone.
