Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

The crop was taken to Lyons' packing plant in Pompano Beach where it were cleaned, graded, packed and loaded into refrigerator cars. They were also available at a Farmer's Market nearby between Flagler Avenue and the tracks. This produce kept dozens of laborers fed during the Great Depression as Lyons didn't lay any of them off and allowed them to keep the less than perfect beans.
Five thousand acres of the bean patch became part of the City of Coral Springs in 1963 when they were sold to Coral Ridge Properties. Farming continued for years in the southeast section of town before residential construction began down there. Joan Harner recalls fields of staked green beans, tomatoes and delicious strawberries. There were also small farms along State Road 7 that had stands as well as "pick your own" areas for strawberries, tomatoes, peppers and green beans, open seven days a week. These stayed in business until about 2000 when the property was sold for commercial construction.
Carol Nelson remembers a horse-drawn wagon with produce making stops in Forest Hills during the 70s. Dairies and the only gas station in town, the then-Gulf station across from City Hall, also provided local delivery. When a resident ran out of gas, the owner would make a house call.
Many benefits of small town living have disappeared but maybe with the reappearance of a local green market, we will slow down to smell the flowers and admire the green beans.

The Truth About Coal-Oven Pizza: It's Not As Rare As You Thought

"I forgot that there were animals hanging on the wall and that made me sad. I tried not to look."
From Lombardi's onward.
You see, Lombardi's was closed between 1984 and 1994.
Did 'New York' in fact run the first-ever "best pizza in NYC" roundup? It sure seems that way!
The San Gennaro festival may shrink, but at least Lombardi's is keeping it real?
Is Luigi's the best pizza in Brooklyn? And is the city's best pie in Staten Island?
A shot across the bow of neighbor Lombardi's?
Plus, the pizzeria's new T-shirts look just a little bit like La Esquina's.
Another combatant is named in the pizza wars.
McNally gives his word on Minetta Tavern, while Belgian waffles settle in Soho, in today's neighborhood food news.

A different world than we see today, November 1939 marked the month and year that brought the birth of the City of Visalia Parks & Recreation Department.
Celebrating our 75th anniversary, 1939 marks the year that the precursor to the Park & Recreation Department first came into being when the City Council created the first five-member Parks, Playgrounds and Recreation Commission.
"The Commission worked hand in hand with the citizens of the community," shares Vince Elizondo, Parks & Recreation Director. "Together they created the vision for the park system and the diverse recreation programs that we enjoy today."
While the famous operetta "Naughty Marietta" was playing at the Montgomery Auditorium (now the L. J. Williams Theater), Visalia hired Dick Whitmore as the first Director of the department. Tasked with carrying out the vision of the community, the Commission and the City Council, Whitmore helped create the foundation on which today's Department stands.
"To be healthy and thrive, we have always needed a strong sense of community, public places for people to gather, green spaces such as parks and trails, recreation and wellness programs, and community services," states Elizondo. "Visalia is to be congratulated for fulfilling that need for 75 very successful years."
A community staple, today the Department provides hundreds of classes, programs, events and services for tens of thousands of residents each year. With sports and enrichment programming for youth; top notch adult sports leagues and community events, the Department also hosts hundreds of thousands of people in the City's parks, trails, plazas, and playgrounds each year. That's a lot to celebrate!
To mark turning 75, the Parks & Recreation Department is issuing a special "Live & Play" in late January featuring historical photos, special events throughout the year are planned, and a special section will be coming to www.liveandplayvisalia.com that will continue the work as we learn about our heritage, connect with various stakeholders and celebrate with the community.
"This is a momentous opportunity to commemorate a milestone for the Parks & Recreation Department and the City of Visalia," adds Elizondo. "I welcome everyone to join in this celebration as we mark 75 years as a cornerstone of the community while looking towards the opportunities of the future."
Celebrate with Visalia Parks & Recreation by posting your photos to our Facebook page or on Twitter with the hashtag #VisaliaParks75 and share your memories with us. You might just be featured in the next Live & Play!

The crowd is electric and all you can see is the ring, it's silent because you have block out every voice in the world. the fight starts, you do everything you're corner tells you and it just isn't working so you try plan b, and that fails next thing you know it's over no more rounds, you have just lost the fight and you know it. Many fighters have been here, even most of the greatest fighters in the world. For a trainer this is part of the game of grooming your fighter, How you pick up you're fighter is the difference in building a champion and ruining a fighter.
Coach Schultz have been training fighters for over 35 years in the city of Chicago, and he has done this over a million times seems like. "All I say to them is son, you gave me everything you got, I'm proud of you. I know it hurts but learn from this and comeback stronger." said Schultz. We have seen fighters give up on trainers, blame the world for mistakes and wont even except the fact that they have lost.
"Pride is the first thing to go before a fall, one of my fighters was so gifted he would shut his opponent out in points." said Coach John from the fight factory. "One tournament, he got really cocky and said I've beat this guy already three times, I'm going to try to knock him out this time. I said no, that ain't how we trained to fight this guy, stay behind the jab and let him walk into something. He didn't listen and the boy dropped him twice and broke his nose. I tried like hell to build him back up but he was lost after that fight and was never the same again, he doubted himself and never got back to the level he once was."
Vivian Harris was on a mission to win a world title and go after Floyd Mayweather Jr. but his focus wasn't on the task at hand, and he was knocked out on the undercard of Gatti/Mayweather. The late great Emmanuel Steward was his trainer at the time, and Steward made a huge mistake, he didn't try harder to reach Harris after the lost. His schedule had Steward moving around a lot and being distant when Harris needed him most. Harris confidence was gone, he was embarrassed, and hurt. He rushed back into the ring but never quite got back to level he once was at before the knockout. Steward and he would part ways, his career never went anywhere after that.

Spoke to John Bolton, AEI, in re the Governor Bill Richardson of New Mexico and Eric Schmidt of Google embassy to Pyongyang, North Korea, and we puzzled as to what to say about this scale of diplomatic stunt. The still photos and the video (above) are propaganda gems for the DPRK. John Bolton opines that a charitable explanation is that Eric Schmidt is naive of the international threat presented by the nuke-armed and ICBM selling North Korean predatory state. Bolton adds (mp3 file above) that Eric Schmidt waited until he was in Beijing before he called for the DPRK to allow the Internet for its brutalized citizens. The darkness of the DPRK also illustrates the semi-darkness (militant twilight) of the PRC, which has recently imposed new restrictions that are well beyond the Great Firewall of the last years. There is the additional farcical twist that the PRC policies drove Google from China two years ago. The Schmidt remarks, and the Bill Richardson led expedition, stand as hallmarks of the folly of appeasement by celebrities. (George Bernard Shaw tried this with the Soviets in the 1930s and dented his jovial reputation by providing cover for Stalin's Ukraine famine.) I follow a generous rule with celebrity folly: The first time it's accident; the second time it's coincidence; the third time it's darkness visible. Creatively self-promoting Governor Bill Richardson struck out as a geopolitical thinker a long time ago. Eric Schmidt has two strikes to go. (Still, the Pyongyang Richardson-Schmidt video above reminds me of Hanoi Jane Lite: the North Koreans at the desktops are wearing their coats, because the hall is unheated. This looks like the Dictator's UnMusuem, filled with artifacts from a culture that cannot ever be. The pose (left) with DPRK soldiers staring at an Internet screen, with the photos of the two previous Kim family brutes on the wall, is rubbish agitprop, a photo created by the North Koreas to distribute to their pals in Beijing for a laugh. The whole video performance is an inside-out Potemkin Village -- wherein the visitors are the make-believe exhibit. Is this rogue-slumming by billionaires? Would Schmidt visit Moscow 1934?)
Transparency is the Thing This Century.
Below find a video that is both sad and compelling of the Internet freedom pioneer, Aaron Swartz, who we learn is a suicide these last hours at 26 years-old. I learn from Matthew Lynley WSJ that Aaron Swartz was a principal in the development of RSS as well as an early voice at Reddit. In this video (below), Aaron Swartz speaks of the U.S. Congress meddling with internet transparency. Aaron Swartz's remarks are convincing and matter of fact visionary. The connectivity of the world wide web demands total transparency. It is the folly of states that some (PRC, DPRK and so forth off the shelf dictatorships) aim to strangle the web. It strikes me as the work of men who believe they can build a sand wall to keep out the waves at the beach. The wise Cory Doctorow at Boing Boing writes that Aaron Swartz's suicide isn't inconsistent with indications that the deceased suffered with what Doctorow says was depression over a time. Other reports mention the ongoing Federal investigation of the hacking of copyrighted documents. The Aaron Swartz death is all the more of a loss, because it is the Gen X and Millennial generations (Swartz was on the cusp of both) that need to reorganize the planet for a kind of transparency that overcomes all bounds, that prospers best when joined with imagination and wit. The "We the People" petition at the White House to build a Star Wars "Death Star" at more cost that there is worth on this planet ($850 plus 15 zeros) is a wonderful example of what the Internet can do for thinking about governance. Do politicians pay mind to petitions from thirty-five thousand people who want a Death Star project to create jobs? Correct. The transparency of the exchange -- the White House responds dryly, "The administration does not support blowing up planets" -- is a glimpse of how the Republic may well adapt to increasingly unfettered information. The droll will be rewarded; the earnest will be encouraged; the adventurous will be watched; the candid will be applauded; the phony will be mocked; the brutal will be rejected. RIP Aaron Swartz. At the same time, I am confident that the Swartz vision of the coming supremacy of transparency is -- h/t Guy Fawkes Day-- legion.

Gator II - Gut Hook, Fine Edge
Not everyone can have a firm grip on life. But just about anyone can have a firm grip on their knife. That is, if they happen to be the owner of a Gator II Folder: The latest, most ergonomically advanced version yet of Gerber's famous thermoplastic grip technology.
These remarkable grips fit in the hand so precisely, so comfortably, you'll be looking for something to cut. Plus, the built-in thumb rests combine with the notched spine grips for maximum control and agility. The stainless steel blade opens effortlessly with one hand, thanks to the strategically-located thumb hole.
The accompanying sheath is constructed of thermoformed ballistic nylon, and accommodates the optional gut hook. But what about the alligator skin texturing on the handle? Heck, we just threw that in to make sure you never lose your grip.
- Overall Length: 8.58"
- Blade Length: 3.7"
- Closed Length: 4.72"
- Weight: 4.4 oz.
- Lock Mechanism: Lock back
- Blade Style: Gut Hook
- Blade Material: 420HC Stainless Steel
- Blade Type: Fine
- Handle Material Glass-filled nylon with Gator Grip overmold
- Sheath Material: Thermoformed ballistic nylon
- Gator grip handle texture for maximum grip
- One-hand opening

All in all a good knife.great for field dressing a deer.but I have a buck knife that I can get twice as sharp as my gerber.but all in all a good knife for the price
Cheaper please.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Ryan Gosling's favorite director?on April 4, 2013 @ 3:11 pm (Updated: 10:31 am - 4/5/13 )
Actor and heartthrob Ryan Gosling is very much in demand in Hollywood these days. In fact, People Magazine has just dubbed him "America's Most Wanted Man." But a young and up-and-coming director named Derek Cianfrance has snagged him TWICE, in his last two movies.
His first film with Gosling was "Blue Valentine," an emotionally raw account of a relationship going bad. It also starred Michelle Williams, who garnered an Oscar nomination for it.
Cianfrance's new film, "The Place Beyond the Pines," opens Friday. It features another intense performance by Gosling, this time as a motorcycle daredevil.
The ambitious, multi-generational film also stars the recently Oscar-nominated Bradley Cooper. He plays a cop who has a life-changing altercation with Gosling's character.
Tom Tangney is the co-host of The Tom and Curley Show on KIRO Radio and resident enthusiast of...everything. As the film and media critic on the Morning News on KIRO Radio, he espouses his love for books, movies, TV, art, pop culture, politics, sports, and Husky football.

The Ten Titles That Scared You as a Kid
Subscribe to our newsletter
Books were those treats you could have before bedtime. They sat waiting for you quietly on the shelf and they might well have been the very things that taught your little brain to TRUST NO ONE. What were adults thinking putting some of these fictional gems into the hands of little kids? The same people who refused to let you stay up to see a monster flick gave you a book that has haunted your dreams for life. Do people forget what is actually in the pages of these books or is there some sick, perverse sadistic streak that causes humanity to keep handing down these horrors generation after generation?
The Brothers Grimm
Falling asleep for generations, being held captive by a wicked witch intent on eating you, are these stories really bed time fare? How about the villainous step-mother being forced to dance in red hot metal shoes, will that offer pleasant dreams? Perhaps it is our parent's fault that we sit before our child's bed holding these books and thinking "I don't remember the wolf actually eating anyone", because they probably did what you are about to. Smile and make something up on the spot to cover for this bloodthirsty tradition of mean spirited fiction.
The Little Mermaid By Hans Christian Anderson
Hans Christian Anderson was not a man destined to be lucky in love. Not many people understood the term bi-sexual during his lifetime and he wasn't in any position himself to explain why he so often seem to fall for women he could never hope to obtain, and then to have such strange slavish friendships with men. We can only see how tormented his characters are in his stories which generations of publishers have insisted are for children.
When the children's movie making giant Disney set about re-making Anderson's The Little Mermaid the studio gave the sweetly singing mermaid star a happy ending far from the original writer's vision. Anderson's ocean born lost soul suffers terribly first by hopelessly falling in love with a land dweller, then giving up all she knows to try to win his heart. Walking on dry land for her is to feel as if she were walking on knives and to top it off she is unable to even speak of her love to the one she has sacrificed so much just to be near. In the end he decides on another and she who can't bring herself to kill her faithless true love is changed first into sea foam then, into a point of light in the sky. If you read this to a young pre-teen or give her a copy expect the tears and nightmares to follow shortly.
The Legend of Sleepy Hallow
The author of Rip Van Winkle and other cool stories outdid himself with this terrifying little piece of fiction. As a child you experience every terror right along with poor Ichabod Crane who is pursued through the dark night by the headless horsemen. The ghost of a Hessian trooper who lost his head to a stray cannonball seems to follow the school teacher and scares him right of town. The dark comedy of the story is usually lost on the gap toothed smile set, but the humor gradually sinks in as your voice gets deeper.
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
There is something about Alice's Adventures in Wonderland written by the English author Charles Lutwidge Dodgson under the pen name Lewis Carroll. Some children and many adults dearly love this book and have no problem, but others find it anywhere from a little scary to deeply unnerving. One of the reason might be this type of story is part of the literal nonsense genre in which logic is turned around and given a twist. If you are someone who likes neatness, straight lines, and you don't like having logic screwed around with this type of fiction clearly isn't for you.
Some older readers also liken the experience to taking mind altering drugs, so if you're the sort who prefers their reality unimpaired then you probably didn't care much for Carroll's classic as a child. If you did enjoy the psychedelic effects of this book then you are in luck. Tim (The Nightmare Before Christmas) Burton will be releasing a new movie version of the Alice in Wonderland. There have been many films based on the book through the years, but Tim Burton's treatment is bound to become a standout. Not only are there many CGI effects that even Lewis Carroll would have loved to see, but the movie will be available in 3-D in some places just to increase the odd effect of the logic bending plot.
The War of the Worlds
Why any thinking human being would put H. G. Wells' book The War of the Worlds in the children's section is beyond me, but go check it out and you are bound to find a copy sitting on the shelf ready and willing to terrify some unwitting little kid. The same story that sent adults into a mindless panic one Halloween night in the 1930's isn't a great idea for anyone under ten and perhaps the epic classic written in 1898, but still freaky scary should come with a warning about sleep deprivation.

TO: News/Assignment Editors and Directors
FROM: Mike Rindo
DATE: Sept. 23, 2009
SUBJECT: Council Oak Tree
University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire Chancellor Brian Levin-Stankevich has directed the Davies Center Redevelopment Steering Committee and the project architects to develop design options for the new student center that will preserve the site of the Historic Council Oak and the tree that currently is planted there.
The site for the new student center will remain the same.
Levin-Stankevich made the decision to request design options after listening to concerns raised about the new student center design's infringement on the site and tree, including its historic and cultural significance to the campus, Chippewa Valley region and Native Americans. Levin-Stankevich consulted with student leadership, faculty, staff, members of the Native American community and others before making the decision.
The Chancellor told the University Senate of his decision during a Senate meeting late Tuesday afternoon. Senators (who include university faculty and staff) responded to the news with a round of applause.
On Tuesday night, the Eau Claire City Council approved the site plan for the building. University officials also notified council members during that meeting of Levin-Stankevich's decision to seek design options that preserve the site.
The decision to seek design options comes at a logical time in the building design process — at the end of the preliminary design phase (35 percent of the design completed) but before approval is sought for the full design and construction.
The project timeline originally called for the student center project to be presented to the UW System Board of Regents in October, but the design options requested by Levin-Stankevich could delay that presentation.
For additional information, contact Mike Rindo, executive director of University Communications, at (715) 836-4742 or email@example.com.

Current This Weekend
Posted by: deuce on Feb-10-14 9:53 AM (EST)
Forecast looks pretty nice with the exception of rain chances Monday. My crew will be at Waymeyer around 9:30 Saturday morning to set shuttle. From there we'll head to Two Rivers to rig and launch. I know nothing about the reach below Two Rivers except what I've heard and read. We'll of course camp on gravel bars Saturday and Sunday nights. Wood will be burned and lies will be told. Pete can attest to the fact that we don't get in a hurry to get on or down the river, but I think the pace worked out fine when he joined us in December (largely because he graciously accomodated our laziness, but I digress). If you find you can make it we'll be honored for you to join us. Post here and/or email me for further info etc.

Thanks guys.

Sorry y'all can't make it, but I appreciate the pics. My daughter decided last night she's in so I'm really excited now. She rolls with me all the time, but this will be her first float camping excursion. Should be a great one.
Well Allright

Beautiful Winter Themed Coin
By Canuck27
from Vancouver, BC
I chose this coin because I love snowflake and winter themes in art and coins, I just don't like the cold weather that comes with winter and snow. So when I saw this coin I had to have it in my collection. This coin is large, the silver is brilliantly bright and the Swarovski crystals are beautiful and enhance the winter theme.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

An anonymous reader writes "The Ministry of Defence says they are working on a range of offensive cyber weapons to increase the country's defensive capabilities. The armed forces minister, Nick Harvey, says, 'The consequences of a well planned, well executed attack against our digital infrastructure could be catastrophic With nuclear or biological weapons, the technical threshold is high.

Behind the Video: B.o.B f/ Taylor Swift – 'Both of Us'
B.o.B and Taylor Swift braved bugs and the blistering heat while shooting the video for "Both of Us," their collaboration off Bobby Ray's sophomore album Strange Clouds. The Atlanta rapper and the country sweetheart brought their own flavors to the Nashville countryside in the summery clip.
"My vision for the video is a collage of different aspects of humanity in the southern states, particularly around Nashville," explained director Jake Nava (Beyoncé, Adele).
B.o.B was surprised by how smoothly things progressed. "This video is actually the quickest moving video I've ever done in my life," he said. "I like to step it up with each video. I really like to challenge myself, and Jake he really pushes me to deliver an even more enhanced performance than what I'm used to delivering."
Go behind the scenes before the full video premieres June 27 on MTV.

The all-important human/animal bond is helping to insulate the pet market during the recession and boding well for ongoing market growth, as marketers across all pet categories solidly position their products on pet owners' affection for their animals. In Packaged Facts' February/March 2013 online survey, as reported in our Pet Market Outlook 2013-2014, 83% of pet owners agreed with the statement "I consider my pet(s) to be part of the family," with 59% agreeing a lot and 25% agreeing a little. This "pet parent" sentiment has never been stronger, putting premium and superpremium products that rise to "human grade" standards at the forefront of the U.S. pet market.
Various data show this premiumization trend in play. It's evident in channel shopping trends, where the pet specialty channel continues to steal shopper traffic from the mass market. According to Simmons national consumer survey data from Experian Marketing Services, the share of pet owners who shop in the pet specialty channel edged up from 53% in 2010 to 57% in 2013. Over that same period, the share of those who shop for pet products in supermarkets slipped from 50% to 46%, while the share of those who shop in discount stores edged down from 29% to 26% (see Table 1).
Correspondingly, IRI mass market sales-tracking data for supermarkets, discount stores (other than Walmart) and drugstores for the 52 weeks ending third-quarter 2013 show volume sales down nearly 5% for dog food and 2% for cat food. Within these mass-market channels, however, pet pampering food segments that echo human products are making some noise (see Table 2). Dollar sales of frozen or refrigerated dog food, led by Purina's Frosty Paws frozen novelty treats, were up 13%. Dollar sales of frozen or refrigerated cat food, with brands focusing on freshness-increasingly a top if not the trait sought by health-conscious human food purchasers-were up 28%.
Similarly, the surging popularity of cat treats attests to the strength of the human/animal bond and the increasing humanization and thus premiumization of feeding pets. Simmons data show that the percentage of cat owners who purchase cat treats or snacks jumped from 40% in 2007 to 50% in 2013 (see Table 3). Even though cat owners continue to trail dog owners in the dispensing of pet treats-partly reflecting their higher propensity to use wet petfood for pet-pampering purposes-the writing (or maybe the paw print) is on the wall.
Product humanization and premiumization will continue to drive much of the growth in the pet market. Dovetailing with premiumization is a strong focus on pet health and wellness, along with a preference among many consumers for natural and organic products and ingredients, particularly given ongoing concerns about pet product safety. To meet consumer demand and justify the higher prices of premium products, virtually all pet product marketers are focusing more intensively, and in ever more customized ways, on pet health.
But even in this era of elevated and humanized standards for pet products, a simultaneous insistence on true value-meaning not just low price on the one hand, and not simply conspicuous consumption on the other-means that competition for sales and growth remains intense. Even premium and superpremium positioned products must make a compelling case for their benefits, and then live up to pet parent expectations.

Local Georgetown resident, 35-year-old David Lee Brashears, was processed into the Scott County Detention Center on November 6th for Probation violation for felony offense. As of this morning he's still being held on $7,500 bond.
The case dates back to 2008 when Brashears was found guilty of numerous charges, including Cultivation of marijuana and Theft by unlawful taking, according to Scott Circuit Court Judgement and Sentence documents.
The defendant was placed on five-years probation with a one-year prison sentence probated for each case.
Fast forward to September 11-18 of 2012. According to three separate Uniform Citations; the defendant is now being charged with Theft by unlawful taking and Burglary in the second degree (both serious felony charges).

Greetings redhillcreative,
Thanks for bringing this up, it certainly sounds like a useful customization to the plugin.
Unfortunately, it is not currently available - but we would love to:
a. put it into consideration for future development
b. see if we can help you hack it in for the moment
It might take a bit longer than useful but I'll see if I can get the lead developer in here to assist / give us some advice... in the meantime if you could post the results / problems you've come across doing it yourself here that would definitely help too.
Alternatively, you could see if there's a developer available at wpmu jobs who could get onto it right this minute, but we're aiming to get you sorted ourselves.
Thanks again and it is great to have you as a WPMU Dev member, looking forward to getting this worked out!
Cheers, Joe :-)
Thanks mate.
I am trying to do is to insert the Chat Box inside of a widget, behind a sliding tab :)
I know that sounds complicated but essentially looking to make the chap at the bottom of the page more noticeable.
Thanks for any help that you can render mate
Greetings redhillcreative,
Thank you for the additional feedback, it is appreciated.
After talking with the lead developer of the Chat plugin, this feature will be incorporated into the next release of the plugin which should be coming along shortly.
Thanks again for being a WPMU Dev member!
Cheers, Joe :-)
Thanks for the help mate.
ah...I've been promised by James on 11 Oct 2010 to have it in the next version and now year 2012 am still waiting....
I will give it a try mate
We've got answers!

Reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Pope Pius XI
One of the problems of Roman Catholicism is its doctrine of salvation. It denies justification by faith alone and requires works done through the Roman Catholic sacramental system in order for a person to be justified before God. Justification, of course, is the legal declaration by God where he proclaims the sinner righteous in his sight. The Bible clearly teaches that this justification is by faith and denounces any addition of works to it.
- Rom. 3:28-30, "For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law. 29Or is God the God of Jews only? Is He not the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also, 30since indeed God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith is one."
- Rom. 4:5, "But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is reckoned as righteousness,"
- Rom. 5:1, "therefore having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,"
- Rom. 5:9, "Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him."
- Rom. 10:4, "For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes."
- Rom. 11:6, "But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works, otherwise grace is no longer grace."
- Gal. 2:16, "nevertheless knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the Law; since by the works of the Law shall no flesh be justified."
- Gal. 2:21, "I do not nullify the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died needlessly."
- Gal. 3:24, "Therefore the Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, that we may be justified by faith."
- Eph 1:13, "In Him, you also, by listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation--having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise,"
- Eph. 2:8, "For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God."
- Phil. 3:9, "and may be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith."
In spite of the obvious teaching of scripture, Roman Catholicism teaches to the contrary. Please note the proclamations of The Council of Trent, 1545 to 1563.
- CANON I--If any one saith, that the sacraments of the New Law were not all instituted by Jesus Christ, our Lord; or, that they are more, or less, than seven, to wit, Baptism, Confirmation, the Eucharist, Penance, Extreme Unction, Order, and Matrimony; or even that any one of these seven is not truly and properly a sacrament; let him be anathema."
- CANON IV--If any one saith, that the sacraments of the New Law are not necessary unto salvation, but superfluous; and that, without them, or without the desire thereof, men obtain of God, through faith alone, the grace of justification;--though all (the sacraments) are not indeed necessary for every individual; let him be anathema.
- CANON VIII--If any one saith, that by the said sacraments of the New Law grace is not conferred through the act performed, but that faith alone in the divine promise suffices for the obtaining of grace; let him be anathema.
Reparation means to make amends, something done as a compensation, to repair something that has been damaged. It is certainly biblical to make amends (reparation) for wrongs done when we have offended another person. But it is not possible for us to make reparation to God for our sins. This is because we are sinners, and we are not able to keep the law of God perfectly. Therefore, all that we do, all of our righteous deeds, are but filthy rags before God (Isaiah 64:6) and to seek in anyway to make reparations to God for our sins--other than appealing to the sacrifice of Christ alone--is essentially teaching a false gospel and is in violation of scripture. Gal. 2:16 says, "nevertheless knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we may be justified by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the Law; since by the works of the Law shall no flesh be justified."
Pope Pius XI (1857-1939)
Following are quotes from an encyclical (a letter written from the pope addressed to the bishops) from Pope Pius XI where he advocates reparation for sins committed against the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Please note in the quotes below that the Pope urges that this principle of reparation be taught to the Catholic Church at large.
The original document is full of many unscriptural teachings, but we will focus on only some of them. Nevertheless, the quote is a bit long, but it is necessary to exemplify the unbiblical teaching. (The original document is numbered by paragraph, and the quotes that are cited here reflect those same numbered paragraphs). To see the text in its entirety, go to www.vatican.va.
"1 . . . it is our pleasure, Venerable Brethren, to speak to you for a little while concerning the duty of honorable satisfaction which we all owe to the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, with the intent that you may, each of you, carefully teach your own flocks those things which we set before you, and stir them up to put the same in practice. 3 . . . to promote the worship of the Divine Heart are everywhere erected . . . 6 . . . we mean that duty of honorable satisfaction or reparation which must be rendered to the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. For if the first and foremost thing in Consecration is this, that the creature's love should be given in return for the love of the Creator, another thing follows from this at once, namely that to the same uncreated Love, if so be it has been neglected by forgetfulness or violated by offense, some sort of compensation must be rendered for the injury, and this debt is commonly called by the name of reparation. 7 . . . Now though in both these matters we are impelled by quite the same motives, none the less we are holden to the duty of reparation and expiation by a certain more valid title of justice and of love, of justice indeed, in order that the offense offered to God by our sins may be expiated and that the violated order may be repaired by penance. . . . but besides this we must need make satisfaction to God the just avenger, "for our numberless sins and offenses and negligences." 8 . . . Moreover this duty of expiation is laid upon the whole race of men . . . And indeed, even from the beginning, men in a manner acknowledged this common debt of expiation and, led by a certain natural instinct, they endeavored to appease God by public sacrifices. 9 . . . and being made partakers of His eternal priesthood we are to offer up "gifts and sacrifices for sins" (Hebrews v, 1). . . . but the whole Christian people rightly called by the Prince of the Apostles "a chosen generation, a kingly priesthood" (1 Peter ii, 9), ought to offer for sins both for itself and for all mankind (Cf. Hebrews v, 3), in much the same manner as every priest and pontiff "taken from among men, is ordained for men in the things that appertain to God" (Hebrews v, 1).12 . . . In order that these faults might be washed away, He [Jesus] then recommended several things to be done, and in particular the following as most pleasing to Himself, namely that men should approach the Altar with this purpose of expiating sin, making what is called a Communion of Reparation,--and that they should likewise make expiatory supplications and prayers, prolonged for a whole hour,--which is rightly called the "Holy Hour." These pious exercises have been approved by the Church and have also been enriched with copious indulgences.
For anyone familiar with the biblical doctrine of justification by faith (see verses above), the teachings of Pope Pius XI should be very disturbing. There is no way that we are ever able to please God through our works. This is why Jesus, who is God in flesh, became one of us so that he might bear our sins on the cross. Because He did it, we don't need to expiate, repair damage done, or appease God in any way. To infer that we need to is to deny the sufficiency of Christ's atoning sacrifice. Jesus said on the cross "It is finished!" (John 19:30). That statement was commonly used during that time in legal documents to signify a debt that had been paid in full. Since it is paid in full, there is nothing we can do to please God so as to make things right with God. To imply that there is is sinful.
Jesus bore our sins in his body on the cross (1 Pet. 2:24). It was Jesus who became sin on our behalf (2 Cor. 5:21) and did it all. It was necessary that Jesus do what we could not. Pope Pius XI contradicts the biblical teaching of salvation by grace through faith. If it was necessary for us to make amends or reparations or expiations in order for some sort of cleansing of our sins, then why did Jesus have to come and die on the cross? Gal. 2:21 says, "I do not nullify the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died needlessly."
Also, in paragraph 9 as quoted above, Pope Pius XI takes Heb. 5:1 out of context. It is not we who offer up the gifts and sacrifices for sins as his quote implies. Instead, the passage speaks about the high priest doing this: "For every high priest taken from among men is appointed on behalf of men in things pertaining to God, in order to offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins;" (Heb. 5:1). He has misapplied the very word of God. He should know better.
The truth is that what is taught here is consistent with other teachings of the Roman Catholic Church that oppose the biblical doctrine that we are made right with God completely and totally through the cross of Christ, and that we can do nothing to gain or maintain that rightness with God. Pope Pius XI contradicts Scripture as does much of Roman Catholic teaching.
- "We can therefore hope in the glory of heaven promised by God to those who love him and do his will. In every circumstance, each one of us should hope, with the grace of God, to persevere 'to the end' and to obtain the joy of heaven, as God's eternal reward for the good works accomplished with the grace of Christ," (Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC), par. 1821).
- "Moved by the Holy Spirit and by charity, we can then merit for ourselves and for others the graces needed for our sanctification," (CCC, 2010).
- "As a means of regaining grace and justice, penance was at all times necessary for those who had defiled their souls with any mortal sin. . . . (The Council of Trent, Sess. XIV, c. i)
Pope Pius XI did not offer anything new. But he did reiterate the incorrect teaching in the Roman Catholic Church that our righteousness before God can be helped through our works. This is a false doctrine and is one of the main reasons that the Protestant Reformation happened. The excesses and false teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, particularly in the area of salvation, mean the Roman Catholic Church is not Christian.

Peter Falk dies at 83 in Beverly Hills.
No cause of death was given, but the veteran character actor had been suffering from Alzheimer's disease.
The gravelly voiced Falk was best known for his portrayal of the trench coat wearing detective on the long running "Columbo."
He received four Emmy awards for his starring role on the series, and his portrayal of the seemingly absent-minded investigator made Falk a television icon. The series ran from 1971-78 on NBC and launched several later television movies that aired on ABC.
He also was a key member of iconoclastic filmmaker John Cassavetes' regular ensemble, starring in such independent film classics as "A Woman Under the Influence" (1974).

Which banks are still sponsoring H1B visas?O
I'm looking to start a 1-yr masters program this summer, and I'm thinking of starting to reach out to alums in IBD. I'm an international student, so I'll need H1B sponsorship. I understand that the banks that received TARP money have major hurdles towards hiring foreign students, but if the money is paid back, do the restrictions still apply?
I'd be interested to know which banks are still hiring H1B workers.
All BBs should not haveST
All BBs should not have problem hiring intl' students.
I am an international master student, I interviewed with all BBs in US, I guess they would not be interested in me if they cannot sponsor H1B.
Now that they paid back TARPST
Now that they paid back TARP this should no longer be an issue
The Macro View
I don't know about now, butIB
I don't know about now, but back in 2008, the only banks that would hire foreign students were Citi and Barclays
Before TARP, banks were already cutting back with the H1B visa cut-backs. Merrill Lynch and JP Morgan would not even give you an interview if they knew you were foreign.
MM banks have never had problems hiring international (Laz/BX/HL/ etc..)
To the best of my knowledge,IB
To the best of my knowledge, most banks currently hire H1B. Heres are the ones that don't
-Blackstone does not sponsor H1Bs for US positions (surprising given its scale)
-Piper Jaffray
-Wells FArgo
-BNY Mellon
-Raymond JAmes
-Sun Trust
-Union Bank Cali
-Cap One
-Lazard MM
-Stifel Nicolaus
PM me of you need more info
In general, Goldman Sachs andHF
In general, Goldman Sachs and Credit Suisse are known to be very generous with sponsoring internationals. They will take the best talent regardless of where there are from. Despite what they say, other firms are much more stringent with H1Bs. This is both pre- and post- TARP.
macro while you are rightIB
macro while you are right that goldman and cs sponsor H1bs, there is no thing such as generosity....if you are good enough, they will hire you and work out your H1B, but the same thing applies to most other banks as well. I am sure JPM doesnt go into recruiting thinking we are only going to hire 30 of the best H1Bs ... once you get the offer, only then do all the big banks (i wont say BBs only) start working around your work status
Of course the termHF
Of course the term "generosity" is meant in comparison with the other banks. Although I know nothing of their internal policies, several of my international friends were told by most of the banks that their immigration status would be an issue, whereas GS and CS told them to not sweat it. One of them was actually given an offer by JPMorgan, which was later rescinded when they found out that she was not a citizen. Another was told during the interview process with several banks that it would be difficult for them to get an offer. Guess where they are working now?
