The Department of Archaeology is dedicated to studying and preserving Monticello's archaeological record, and to deciphering its meaning through comparative research.
Monticello is home to a unique collection of artifacts, antique books, and works of art relating to every aspect of Jefferson's diverse interests as well as to the larger Monticello community.
Dedicated to researching, collecting, cultivating, and distributing hundreds of plants that have either a direct connection to Jefferson and Monticello or to the historic gardens of North America.
Robert H. Smith International Center for Jefferson Studies
ICJS's multidisciplinary approach is a hallmark of the Thomas Jefferson Foundation's dedication to advancing broadly the Jeffersonian legacy.
A gateway to information on Thomas Jefferson and his life, times, and legacy.
The Papers of Thomas Jefferson: Retirement Series Research
The project is creating the definitive edition of Thomas Jefferson's letters and papers for the period from 1809 to 1826.
Can someone tell my the citation for this quotation attributed to Thomas Jefferson?
"What we learn to do, we learn by doing."
Or is it a spurious attribution to Jefferson?
Many believe the source was Aristotle, but Aristotle did not say this--a biographer did.

I don't find this exact quotation in Jefferson's writings. It sounds like a paraphrase of this passage in Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics: "For the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by doing them, e.g. men become builders by building and lyreplayers by playing the lyre; so too we become just by doing just acts, temperate by doing temperate acts, brave by doing brave acts." (see http://classics.mit.edu/Aristotle/nicomachaen.2.ii.html) Some scholars think that Jefferson is referencing this passage in Aristotle in his exhortation to his nephew, Peter Carr, to "...above all things lose no occasion of exercising your dispositions to be grateful, to be generous, to be charitable, to be humane, to be true, just, firm, orderly, couragious &c. Consider every act of this kind as an exercise which will strengthen your moral faculties, and increase your worth." (August 10, 1787; see http://www.let.rug.nl/usa/P/tj3/writings/brf/jefl61.htm for full text of letter)

Hi Anna,
I am an RIBA British Architect and Palladio Scholar.
I am visiting Monticello and UVA from Sunday 4th May to Tuesday 6th May 2014.
I would really like to see Jefferson's original copies of Palladio's Four Books of Architecture. Is this possible? Are they in the Library or Visitor's Centre.
I seem to recall last year one of the copies was in the glass cabinet at the top of the stairs in the Visitor Centre.
I am tracing Palladio's Influence on Jefferson's Architecture.
Thanks Chris Law RIBA

When members of the public see us excavating around the main house, they often ask whether we are affiliated with the University of Virginia. They are surprised when we tell them that we are part of a permanent research department at Monticello. Monticello has a handful of departments conducting scholarly research. What an excellent organization!

Understanding Minneapolis' new bicycle pavement markings
By Tom Nehil | 04/04/12
Last year, the City of Minneapolis introduced new pavement markings on many streets aimed at helping cyclists and motorists better share the road. To help explain the markings to drivers and cyclists, the city has produced two short videos.

St. Patricks Day fun scheduled throughout South Buffalo
BY: Catherine Miller | March 04, 2014
SOUTH BUFFALO - There's much to choose from - Celtic music and dancing, parades, post-parties, corned beef specials and more. Whether you are Irish all year or just in mid-March, there is something for everyone during St. Patrick's Day weekend in the Buffalo area.
South Buffalo being the hometown to the largest group of people hailing from Irish immigrants, the streets in the area will be bustling with activity.
Friday, March 14 from 5-8 pm you will find Larkinville, at the intersection of Seneca and Swan Streets, getting their green on as they present "Live at O'Larkin". Live music, dance, Irish food and beer along with an array of food trucks will surround Larkin District's hotspot. McCarthyizm and Crikwater will entertain throughout the event, along with the Clann Na Cara School of Irish Dance and the Greater Buffalo Firefighters Pipes and Drum band. The event is free and open to the public.
The Buffalo Irish Center, which is always a center of activity during St. Patrick's honored weekend will continue its tradition of hosting several events. Friday the Irish Center will bring to the stage the musical stylings of Callahan, Daly and Jones from 8 pm to midnight. Enjoy the Celtic tunes that will have you dancing a jig and singing along. There is no cover charge for the Friday evening event. Saturday will be a daylong schedule of activities at the Irish Center starting at 11 am with live music beginning at 3 pm. Sunday will continue the party as the Irish Center celebrates parade day starting at 1 pm with live music and Irish step dancing. Located at 245 Abbott Road, the Buffalo Irish Center continues to be one of the most popular spots to celebrate the Ireland's favorite holiday.
Saturday, March 15, the Old Neighborhood Parade will kick off at noon. Watch as Buffalo's finest bands, unions and Irish dancers travel the historic streets filled with Irish roots and memories. The route will travel South Park Avenue, Elk Street, Hamburg Street and O'Connell Avenue. Immediately following the parade join the Valley Community Center clan as they host the post-parade Irish Hooley party at 93 Leddy Street complete with Irish food, fun and live music.
Many of your favorite Irish bands will be busy throughout the weekend traveling between events. Most of the favorite local pubs, Irish and non-Irish, will be featuring food and drink specials along with entertainment. Visit their websites for the latest in information.

ADR: end strife
ADR, it is called: ``Alternative dispute resolution.'' The subject of books, meetings, publicity, and (within the judicial community) a measure of uncertainty and concern, ADR is a catchall for every out-of-court method for terminating civil disagreement. Lawyers and judges, like other professionals and the general public, are always seeking a better way to get things done. In these days of four-year waits for civil trials and delays filled with expensive overuse of legal talent, the pressure for faster, less costly justice is overpowering.
The response, ADR (sometimes called ADRM, for ``alternative dispute resolution movement'') is less a solution than a sign that the consumers of justice are, at the very least, dissatisfied with the product the judges are turning out.
But to ignore it is to allow the problem to intensify.
Lawyers become judges for a variety of reasons, chief among which is the pleasure and satisfaction derived from the job of judging -- that is, of presiding over courtroom disputes. For many judges, any activity other than sitting in court not only lacks enjoyment; it constitutes role-abandonment.
Suggest to such a jurist that a judge's job should include managing the flow of cases through the system and he will likely reply that the state hires court clerks for that sort of menial task. Intimate that a judge confronting a civil case should spend time attempting to mediate a solution and the response may well be: ``Let an arbitrator do that; the state commissioned me to run trials.''
Wrapped up in this idea that a judge is a judge only when he referees a courtroom battle is the assumption that the parties to a litigation are at best contending to gain recognition as sole champion of the truth and at worst combating for a winner-take-all triumph.
That view may be both simplistic and wrong. Bear in mind that, nationwide, well over 90 percent of civil lawsuits end in settlement. Nine out of 10 court battles, that is, never reach a courtroom decision.

An animal shelter in Phoenix got an unusual addition this week.
This is "meatball."
He's the largest cat ever turned in to maricopa county animal control.
Staff say the 36-pound feline is too big to fit in shelter kennels…
So meatball has been enjoying more spacious digs in a staff member's office.
They say meatball is very friendly… and can walk comfortably despite the extra pounds.
Animal control is trying to get him into a rescue organization that helps overweight cats lose weight.

I can respect that.
Bigots are going to come and say "huhu discrimination". Tell you what, unless you know the culture, and can think through it, you can't possible judge without ethnocentrism.
EDIT: Everyone automatically assumed a pro-gay stance is progressive. Foreigners at it again, ignoring cultural nuances.
EDIT2: I didn't say you shouldn't judge. I said it's impossible for anyone unfamiliar with the culture to judge without biases. I stand by my point.
Thats bullshit... cultures can be backwards. We can and should criticize entire cultures for their biases.
You can't just change a culture like that. Its backwards but we can do anything about it today for tomorrow
Cultures change though normalization over time. That norming happens when people see behaviors or actions more often in their daily lives.
And the people need to stand up to censorship until it becomes taboo. Then once the media is uncensored, the population will become less backwards by our standards. It doesn't make it right but it isn't fair to hate on the I'll informed
I don't think anyone is really hating on the ill informed. From what I've seen it is mainly just people wanting this things to be able to be exposed in Russia.
However I will say that the part of the culture and laws of Russia that make physical assaults on gays tacitly legal is absolutely worthy of hate.
The government deserves hate. Not the people
I'm sorry but there is no way you can convince me that an organization like "occupy pedophilia" which posts gay bashing videos on the internet does not deserve my hate. That goes beyond cultural relativism.
The vast majority if the homophobic people are raised to be live things like this. Those do not deserve hate, only pity. The people who deserve hate are those people and the government
A culture is taught by your family, your friends, not the government. Stop trying to make such an insane prejudice understandable. It's exactly as understandable as being racist.
If you are raised a tacit you become a racist for at least a part of your life. Your government has control over the media and only allows racist stuff through. You become racist by the government
You are doing nothing but proving his point. They call you backwards, you call them backwards, there is 0 objectivity to who is right.
The side that discriminates against a group of people is the wrong one.
You're discriminating against them though, aren't you? Further, you still can't prove that it's wrong. We discriminate against pedophilia, right?
Because we know pedophilia objectively harms children? Causing long term mental issues, and it creates massively exploitative relationships where the child is emotionally, intellectually, financially, and legally inferior to the adult. Basically the children lack the capability to be little more than pawns to the sexual desires of the adult.
So we protect children from ending up in harmful, exploitative relationships which they lack the tools to avoid themselves.
Homosexuality between two consenting adults has no objective harm. Discrimination of peoples however does. See the evidence submitted to the supreme court in Brown V. Board of Education for proof.
Thus we see them engaging in a harmful act of discrimination against an act which causes zero harm. Creating a net amount of harm.
Creating a demonstrable wrong which exists independent of cultural belief. You cannot believe away the harm of discrimination, and you cannot believe into existence any real world harm of homosexuality. Its not a cultural issue.
We also know that same-sex relations are an independent risk factor for various health issues, related to the sexual patterns (which are present in heterosexuals as well, but not in every heterosexual relationship). Same-sex attraction has no real-world harm, but same-sex intercourse, for males at least, has a very prominent demonstrable real-world harm, by virtue of its method of practice. You're also drawing a direct line from pedophilia to molestation - which it is not always the case.
Aside from pedophilia, consider that in China it is notorious that public urination is a widespread phenomenon. The ostracization and, indeed, legal reprimands for any individual doing that here in the west are doing far more net harm than leaving them be. There's plenty of other little cultural nuances that fit your bill that you are blind to because they are so "normal" to you.
> there is 0 objectivity to who is right.
What a ridiculous thing to say. Leaving aside the part where you morally equated dehumanizing a group of people for an attribute they have no control over and, uh, not doing so, there's lots of scientific research showing that homosexuals have no negative impact on a society.
You can't prove that, and someone can say it doesn't matter what impact they have, only their beliefs. Ultimately every belief is an opinion and you can't prove your own "right."
edit: you are an honest idiot for saying >you morally equated dehumanizing a group of people for an attribute they have no control over and, uh, not doing so
I didn't morally do anything. I'm being factual about people's beliefs being unable to be proven right or wrong. You are making wild assumptions about my own beliefs in the process of your ignorance.
One group actively discriminates against a certain group of people. The other doesn't.
I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not.
How's it sarcastic?
Like a user said below 'Forced female circumcision is a cultural thing' with that example, would criticising that not be fair? Nothing is perfect and it's better to criticise anything and everything in an effort to bring change instead of just accepting it as how things are.
You can judge without being ethnocentric. We can understand why the attitude in Russia is homo-phobic, but still say that the attitude is wrong.
But only wrong as per our own culture, which is still ethnocentrism. Even human rights are technically a culture, it's just how society is. Society does not progress, nor does it advance, it just simply changes.
Bollocks. Allowing equal rights for gay people is objectively better than not doing so, ethnocentrism be buggered.
> But only wrong as per our own culture,
How do gay people in russia feel about all this?
So discrimination against gays is alright because it's "part of the culture?"
Just like how slavery and apartheid were alright because they were "part of a culture."
I think comparing an Adults Only rating on a video game because of same sex relationships to FUCKING SLAVERY HOLY SHIT ARE YOU KIDDING ME WHAT THE FUCK?! isn't really being reasonable.
I don't get how you can look at that comment and take away from it, " that guy thinks that discrimination against gays = slavery"
If the reasoning is the same I don't see why its unfair to make a comparison between 2 things. You are just having an immediate emotional reaction to it and making your mind up that slavery is this incomparable evil that trumps everything else instead of actually trying to understand the reasoning behind the comparison.
It's exactly what he said. It's like jumping straight to YOU'RE LITERALLY HITLER!!!
Please explain to me how slavery is comparable to Russia giving The Sims 4 an AO rating for containing same-sex relationships.
I'm comparing a law that makes it legal to discriminate against people based on their sexual preference to laws that made it legal to discriminate (or worse) based on race. The Sims 4 debacle is simply a symptom of a larger issue.
You're completely ignoring the reasoning behind the ao rating. An adults only rating is incomparable to slavery. Persecution of a people is comparable.
The severity of persecution isn't remotely equivalent though, so it's still a bad comparison.
He isn't saying the severity is the same, they are talking about the thought process.
The thought process is that Russia considers homosexuality to be inappropriate in the same manner that America considers nudity/sex portrayal in video games in appropriate.
It's not the same as censorship or "trying to sweep it under the rug". They think it is disgusting in the same way we perceive pedophilia over here. Good luck getting a game with a pedophile having sex with a minor with a rating under AO in North America.
No. It's not alright. But I fucking hate it when people look at things from a vacuum.
The LGBT movement has little room to grow right now in Russia because for the most part, anyone who cares about improving the plight of its citizens is focused mostly on human rights as a whole. Compared to that, the LGBT movement is considered to be something that can be shelved for later.
No, I think he's saying that it's their beliefs, and he doesn't agree with them, but he respects them.
There is nothing worth respecting though. His opinion sends a hateful message and should not be tolerated.
I can't argue with that.
Well he shouldn't respect them, they're wrong.
I know what he means. We just look at it as right. but that's our opinion because we see freedom as right. But is it necessarely? The same can be swod about anything we take as a given and think is "right".
I'll accept arguments for culture when they don't hurt anyone. People get hurt when others (especially governments) take an anti-gay stance.
Culture isn't worth anything when coming out to people you thought were friends can mean a bottle shoved up your ass, you dick cut, and your head smashed in with a big rock to the point where the cops can't recognize you.
True story.
Wasn't the anti gay stance just being that they aren't allowed to teach gayness to minors? You realize it's illegal in the USA to have anal sex before 18years old anyway?
Age of consent for anal sex being higher than the normal age of consent actually makes sense. While there are dangers to regular intercourse, pregnancy and STDs being the largest, you can seriously injure someone having anal sex and the risk for STDs is even larger. There is a level of responsibility and care that needs to be taken that is a step above normal intercourse. Hopefully, 2-4 additional years of living will prepare someone for that better, who knows if it does though. Not that a law like this will stop a couple kids from doing it.
> Wasn't the anti gay stance just being that they aren't allowed to teach gayness to minors?
No. Remember that propaganda could be anything from a rainbow patch to telling someone on twitter who is suicidal that it's okay to be gay.
As Wikipedia puts it, "International rights groups have described the current situation as the worst human rights climate in the post-Soviet era, while Russian historian, and human rights activist Lyudmila Alexeyeva called the anti-propaganda law 'a step toward the Middle Ages.'"
The reason moral/cultural relativism is shitty philosophy is that it automatically assumes that any kind of argument or discussion of morality is essentially impossible. It precludes logical debate on these types of political/societal issues, which are very important and which actually affect the lives of many people in the real world. I mean, your entire point is a non-sequitor; you're basically saying "People disagree about these things a lot, so everything about morality is just people's opinions so we can never say anything is objectively bad"
But can we ever come to a conclusion of an objective morality? Objective morality always comes to point where there are situations that are not black or white with no clear answer
In every conceivable case? Maybe not. My point though is that these kinds of philosophical debates do not occur in an intellectual vacuum. They have very real and very profound effects on individuals, groups, and nations. Philosophy is the basis of law, and thus in a very real way of human civilization, without which humanity would be nothing. Therefore it is of great importance that we can have these kinds of debates, and moral relativism precludes that.
I think you are getting at contextualism. I would agree philosophy's influence, but honestly, throwing out moral relativism is throwing out basis of a lot of philosophical debate. Pythagoras and Spinoza wrote based on that idea. Hell, one could argue that most political theories, such as property right, are morally relative. Don't want to start a big fuss, bit we cant entirely dismiss relativism
Forced female circumcision is a cultural thing as well. Is that ok because it's just not our culture? Slavery is cultural in a lot of places. Human sacrifice. Child rape. Cannibalism.
Edit and let's just get Godwin's law in here immediately and say that Nazis were part of the german culture thus with your argument it could be said their actions were not wrong since it was just different from our view point.
edit edit: to be clear I'm not comparing an A/O rating to these things, I'm comparing the thought process used to rationalize that persecuting gays is ok because of cultural differences
I do agree that those things are wrong, but you saying all of that isn't going to convince a cultural relativist of anything because you're just telling them what they believe.
It's just a convenient way to ignore things under the guise of who am I to judge. I understand trying to look at things from other's perspectives but I don't understand how you can look at the perspective of the persecuters and say it's ok and then not look at it from the perspective of those being persecuted.
Agreed. It's stuff like this that really ARE cultural differences. When we call a country out for their homophobic or antisemitic practices, they see it as persecution from The West. They aren't wrong about that, either. I'm not gonna say that these cultural beliefs are acceptable, but it's important to realize that any time we say something is unacceptable, we usually say so from a position of default supposed superiority.
It's widely accepted that Russia enacted their anti-gay laws not because they genuinely hated gay people, but because gay acceptance is a symbol of western ideals. Putin was shoring up support from conservative nationalists and gays were an easy target.
Some people would agree with that statement.
Sure, why not.
Are we suggesting that we need world police to ensure that people all over the world adhere to the same morals, beliefs, practices and behaviours as the "common majority"? How's that for irony from the LGBT movement...
I have my own personal beliefs of right and wrong. I think that locally a culture absolutely should derive it's morals from the local majority. But that sphere of influences begins and ends where the culture begins and ends. What makes my personal morals more "righteous" or "fair" than someone across the world?
This is some crusader-tier logic. 'My religion is the best, the practices and beliefs of those other religions are wrong! We must force them to follow our religion."
Persecuting gays because of cultural differences is absolutely okay. I empathize greatly with anyone who is oppressed, hurt or killed over it, but I totally believe in the right for a culture to self-regulate. To say otherwise is to claim that only your own morals should be followed by everyone on the planet. Again, really fucking ironic from anyone supporting gay rights.
>Are we suggesting that we need world police to ensure that people all over the world adhere to the same morals, beliefs, practices and behaviours as the "common majority"? How's that for irony from the LGBT movement...
It's not an issue of what the "common majority" believes, it is an issue of equal rights for all.
>Persecuting gays because of cultural differences is absolutely okay.
Ok, in my culture, homophobes are to be put to death on the spot.
>To say otherwise is to claim that only your own morals should be followed by everyone on the planet.
No, that's a bullshit false dichotomy. You can deem some practices that you personally dislike acceptable as cultural differences, and denounce others as being blatantly unjust. The options are not limited to "police every person on the planet to do exactly what I think they should do" or "anything that any other group of people chooses to do is okay with me, regardless of how blatantly immoral and discriminatory it appears to be and how many people it is demonstrably causing harm to, because it's a different culture."
What if my "cultural values" include not turning a blind eye to what happens in other cultures?
Condoning certain behaviours and not others is not all that different than policing.
Some people feel similarly disgusted by homosexuality. Are they wrong for having their own beliefs about the subject simply because those beliefs differ from yours?
Yes if they involve the persecution and objectification of other people. No one should be persecuted because of they way they were born
I'm pretty sure that discriminating people based on something they were genetically born with, and have no power to change is a negative in all modern cultures. This would be the basis of what we might call a civil social structure. Outside of these basic principles we may as well jump back in the food chain and let natural selection roll the dice for us. With great power, comes great responsibility.
"Judging with ethnocentrism" can't possibly be wrong in every case.
Russia's government has been in the news many times over the last couple of years for being extremely anti-gay. Disturbingly so.
I don't think anyone who would suggest this is because of that would be being a bigot.
I was born and raised in Russia, and have lived there for the entirety of my life. Because of that, I like to think that I "know the culture and can think through it". I still find the rampant homophobia terrible and abhorrent. So there you go, I guess. This is your official permission from a certified Russian to condemn the discrimination of gay people in Russia, like any person with the slightest shred of empathy fucking should.
So it's okay because it's the norm in Russia? That's insane. Lots of things are the norm in lots of places. FGM is the norm in lots of places. Killing people because of their religion (or lack of thereof) is the norm in lots of places. Doesn't make it okay.
There's no cultural nuance that can make dehumanizing a person for their opinion on dick okay. If a culture is okay with rape that doesn't mean rape is all good and we should tolerate their cultural differences.
Yeah man, also, being racist in Russia is totally cool. It's a cultural nuance. Us westerners couldn't possibly understand.
Ahh... moral relativism, we meet again.
Sooo, killing a child and eating their organs is okay in "Blankland" because it's part of their culture, you have no right to bash them for it.
Yes, ethnocentrism should be avoided but you can still criticize cultural norms of other cultures without going around parading your culture as the inherently superior one. There are mediums between going full ethnocentric and full cultural relativist.
You should definitely respect the culture of a people, but just because they have culture doesn't remove their ability to be wrong and incorrect. I suppose slaves should be acceptable in some countries because it is their 'culture' yes?
I will look down on any culture that discriminates against anyone for any reason.
It's impossible to judge anything without biases. When there is no objective measure (and sometimes even then) bias will always have an influence.
I forgot that censorship and authoritarianism is a staple of Russian culture.

I travel a fair amount and have noticed that many cities and towns (metro & rural) have very effective Crime Stoppers/Silent Witness programs through which crimes are often solved by an annonymous contribution from the community. These programs have been around for many years and have been very successful in some areas, especially when each media story ends with the toll-free number for someone to call with information. Although I know that Beaufort County has a Crime Stoppers program, I can't remember when I last saw it used/advertised. In fact, I can't recall it ever being advertised.

I found a way to keep my dog happy as she suffers through the summer heat. I take a large water bowl and fill it 3/4 way full. I then place that in the freezer at night. The following afternoon when the heat really sets in, I take the bowl out from the freezer and fill it completely full. I then place that out for the dog. Since it's a large bowl, the ice doesn't melt until the day has started to cool, which provies ice cool water all after noon. The dog loves it.

BP Comment Quick Links
July 20, 2009 Prospectus Hit and RunSchedule Difficulties
With the possibility of a Roy Halladay deal still lingering, there's little question that the Blue Jays' actions where he's concerned will have an major impact on the rest of the 2009 season. Not only would any trade give his new team a significant boost in their race for a playoff spot, but the vast majority of the Jays' remaining games-53 out of 69-are against the eight American League contenders, those AL teams with records above .500. A revised look at our strength-of-schedule rankings shows that Toronto is tied with the Orioles for the most difficult second-half schedule. If the Doctor is in, the Jays are primed to play spoiler. If he's out, not so much. Our initial look at strength of schedule used pre-season PECOTA projections as the basis for calculating the opponents' winning percentages for all 30 teams, not only for the whole season, but also by month and by half, the better to identify the schedule's contours. With over half the season in the books, we've dispensed with the PECOTAs in favor of each team's Hit List Factor, the average of their actual winning percentage and their various Pythagorean-based winning percentages from our Adjusted Standings page-the stuff of our weekly power rankings. Instead of plugging in those winning percentages uniformly, we've once again applied two adjustments based on data from the last three years, one to account for the home team winning 55 percent of the time, and the other for the AL winning 58 percent of interleague games. Using the log5 method similar to that used by Clay Davenport in the Playoff Odds report, this boils down to a 25-point (.025) bonus or tax applied based on whether the opponent is at home or on the road, and a 40-point (.040) one applied for interleague play. Thus when the Yankees (.579) play the Mets (.487) at Yankee Stadium, the latter's adjusted winning percentage is recorded as .487 - .025 - .040 = .422. When they play at Citi Field, it's recorded as .487 + .025 - .040 = .472. From the Mets' point of view, the Yankees are a .644 team (.579 + .025 + .040) in the Bronx and a .594 (.579 - .025 + .040) team in Queens. Here's how the 30 teams rank by second-half strength of schedule (all ties listed alphabetically): Team������ Season�� 1st��� 2nd Blue Jays�� .514�� .497�� .536 Orioles���� .522�� .510�� .536 Royals����� .505�� .494�� .518 Yankees���� .508�� .500�� .518 Rays������� .504�� .496�� .515 Athletics�� .518�� .521�� .514 Rangers���� .503�� .495�� .513 Red Sox���� .504�� .498�� .512 White Sox�� .497�� .485�� .512 D'backs���� .503�� .497�� .510 Astros����� .494�� .485�� .505 Indians���� .505�� .504�� .505 Tigers����� .495�� .488�� .503 Giants����� .497�� .493�� .502 Mariners��� .502�� .502�� .502 Padres����� .512�� .523�� .499 Angels����� .505�� .510�� .498 Reds������� .491�� .490�� .492 Nationals�� .504�� .516�� .489 Pirates���� .492�� .495�� .488 Braves����� .494�� .499�� .487 Twins������ .494�� .499�� .487 Phillies��� .490�� .495�� .485 Marlins���� .496�� .507�� .483 Rockies���� .497�� .508�� .483 Cubs������� .489�� .496�� .482 Mets������� .496�� .508�� .481 Cardinals�� .483�� .486�� .480 Brewers���� .492�� .504�� .477 Dodgers���� .489�� .499�� .477 As you might expect, it's a tossup as to which AL East contender would benefit the most if Halladay were traded out of the division, thus significantly weakening the Jays. Barring a trade, and based upon an every-fifth-day usage pattern, all three teams would likely face him three times after the July 31 trading deadline. If no trade is consummated by this coming Friday, the Rays will add a fourth start against Halladay, one of the dozen games they have remaining against the Jays (six at home, six on the road). The Yankees, meanwhile, have 11 games remaining against Toronto (five home, six road), all after the deadline. The Red Sox have just nine games left against Toronto (six home, three road), but after being beaten by him on Sunday, they're probably rooting the hardest for a trade. The Yankees have the toughest remaining schedule of any AL contender, a function of the fact that they've got 10 games apiece against the Sox and Rays, both of whom outrank them on the Hit List. Seven of their 10 against the Sox are at home, where they're only 0-2 against their foes this year, as compared to 0-6 at Fenway. As for the teams outside the AL East, here's an oversized handful of take-home points:

You Can Find Love Again...Just Ask Shania Twain
By Joe Amoia
Imagine you are on the top of the world. You have sold over 100 million albums. You are married to one of the world's most famous record producers, the one person who has almost single handedly, supported and guided you on your path to superstar success.
And then one day you find out he is having an affair with your best friend? Think that would turn your world upside down? It doesn't make a difference who you are and how much money you have, being betrayed by both your husband and your best friend has got to take the wind out of your sails and cause some emotional baggage.
If you didn't know the person who was on the receiving end of the infidelity was Shania Twain. But hold on there is some good news (see below). But before I tell you the good news I want to share Shania's journey.
We tend to put celebrities, athletes and entertainers up on a pedestal. But the truth is they are human beings just like you and I. They are not immune to life's problems, in fact many of these individuals face stress and pressures that you and I can't even imagine.
Last night wrapped up a 5 part mini-series on Shania's Journey on the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) called "Why Not with Shania Twain."
In this docu-series Shania takes the viewers on a journey where she deals with her stuff. I have always been a Shania Twain fan but after this series I have come to admire and respect her even more.
Imagine opening up and allowing the world to see your problems and struggles. It doesn't make a difference if you're Shania Twain or your Betty from Boston. Opening up and showing the world that you have problems and you don't have all the answers is not easy.
In fact, that is what makes this series so powerful. Shania starts out on her journey after realizing that she has lost her voice and can no longer sing.
For the first time in her life she realizes that she can no longer run from her problems and suppress them. If she is going to go on and have the life she desires she must deal with them head on.
Over the next several weeks Shania opens the doors and gives viewers a glimpse not only of her life, but of all our lives.
How many of us have "stuff" from our pasts that we have been running from and suppressing? How many of us ignore what is going on and put up the front that everything is ok. That is until it all comes crashing down.
Sound familiar?
There are 2 central themes throughout this series. 1) When you start searching for answers they magically start appearing and 2) The fear of what we think is going to happen is always much worse than what actually happens.
What makes this series so powerful is here you have one of the most beautiful and talented women in the world. She will never have to worry about money or putting food on the table, even if she never sells another record or concert ticket.
But at the end of the day, she is just like you and me. She has the same fears and insecurities.
And here is where the good news comes in. Shania recently was remarried. No matter how much Shania had been hurt or screwed over, she was willing to give love another chance.

Free Dining 2013
Hey guys, I thought I'd start a post for the Free Dining 2013 promotion. I have a separate post for the room only discounts so we can discuss each one separately. I hope this can be a drama-free thread as well.
Think happy thoughts guys. Once again the free dining in a nutshell: Dates: September 2-25 Available to book: May 9 (Visa holders should be May 6) Values recieve Quick Service (which they can upgrade for $18 a day for adults and $3 a day for children) Moderates and Deluxe recieve the regular dining plan. Most resort categories are included, at varying degrees of availability. While Little Mermaid rooms appear to be available...expect VERY limited availability for these (many dates are already sold out completely as it is). |
Thanks. So if I call on the morning of the 6th (dis visa holder) and they say they know nothing, do I press or accept that maybe cardholders don't get it in advance?
I'm on board! Thanks!!!!:)
subscribed... and it will happen... positive thoughts. My dates are not until Nov./Dec. so my fingers are crossed for you all for September :thumbsup2
I just want to step aside and say that, regardless of what some may say, anything can change until the official announcement. It has happened before and can always happen. So please don't make any permanent changes until the announcement is official. I'd hate to see someone lose money based on a post, even if it is 99%.
Subscribed and can't wait to book free dining on Monday...I hope :cool1:
Drama free is perfect...adolescent he said/she said should be left at the playground. I just want to try and save as much money as I can on my trip and I don't care who says it first. Thank you so much for all of the information you supply. We are going in October, so ill be waiting patiently for discounts to be released :)
So when's everyone planning to go? I'm planning on September 6-14 and my dining reservations have already been made.
Regardless of what some say,I would never tell anyone to change their flight or anything permanent like that until the information is made official.
We're going October 26th until November 2nd. We are planing to spend Halloween night at MK doing the MNSSHP but now that I found out the resorts do fun things on Halloween we may change our party night. We might as well make the most out of Halloween at WDW, right??
Well I went and changed our flights coming down , we did have september 26 as the date but now have changed to the 25 didnt want to loose out on the fd, anyway it just gives us another day at disney and didnt cost very much as far as flight increase, so either way Im good! we arrive on the 25 and depart on October4th have booked rooms at cbr already and dining res are all made! Cant wait!:thumbsup2
All times are GMT -5. The time now is 11:22 PM. |

For new questions please post at magento.stackexchange.com, the community-run support site for the Magento community. We will be providing updates on the new forum solution soon. For questions or concerns please email email@example.com.
I am customizing catalog/product/list.phtml to add a lightbox instead of going to the product page.
So I have used css to strip the page template away if the product is loaded from the "lightbox" category. http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/25730/
So now all I need to do is get the url to the product in the lightbox category instead of the one in the current list category. ie. that would be $_product->getProductUrl()
So say my product url key is "abc123", then I want "http://domain.com/lightbox/abc123.html" returned.
In the API I can see that there is a function that maybe I should be calling.. $_product->getUrlPath($category) But how do I get the $category object to be the "Default Category/Lightbox" category?
Also am I on the right track with the getUrlPath function? If I could just get the url key from the $_product I think it would be much better on performance (ie. no database, no object instantiation, etc..) and I will just hard code the url.
Help, I am a so close it is not funny! (just my PHP newbie status is holding me back)

The Einstein Noah Restaurant Group, whose bagel shops include Einstein Brothers Bagels, Noah's New York Bagels and Manhattan Bagel, said on Monday that it would sell itself to JAB Holding Company, a German conglomerate formerly called Joh. A. Benckiser, for about $374 million. The price of $20.25 a share in cash represents a 47 percent premium over Einstein Noah's 30-day average trading price, the company said…David Einhorn, whose hedge fund is Einstein Noah's largest shareholder, with a stake above 35 percent, said he supported the sale to JAB. He called the deal a "win-win for all parties." "For more than a decade, we have worked closely with the Einstein Noah Restaurant Group to execute a turnaround plan, reducing debt and expanding its store footprint," Mr. Einhorn said in a statement. "J.A.B. is an experienced firm that will lead Einstein Noah Restaurant Group into its next phase of growth." [Dealbook]
Greenlight Capital
"We had a difficult time finding new investments this quarter," he said today on a conference call discussing results at Greenlight Capital Re Ltd. (GLRE), the Cayman Islands-based reinsurer where he is chairman. "As the market continues to rise in the face of conflicting economic data, global unrest, and looming overdue Fed exit from quantitative easing we remain cautiously positioned." [Bloomberg]
"I didn't know 'Mean Girls' had a Wall Street edition," Jonathan Bush said an in interview with the Wall Street Journal, in response to Greenlight Capital's bet against athenahealth,1 announced last week at the Ira Sohn Investment Conference. Bush mounted an equally interesting defense of his company yesterday on CNBC, when he said: Read more »
David Einhorn's Greenlight Capital Inc. posted returns of 4.3 percent in April, owing to his short bets against high-flying momentum stocks and its holdings of Apple Inc. and Micron Technology, according to sources familiar with the hedge fund on Thursday. The April gains brought the $10 billion hedge fund's gains to 3.1 percent for this year to date. [Reuters]

David Einhorn Demands Judge Unmask Blogger Who Cost Him Some Money

And he would appreciate it if a court would help him do so. Read more »
The Greenlight Capital funds, run by hedge fund manager David Einhorn, returned 4.3 percent in the third quarter of 2013, bringing the funds' year-to-date net return to 11.8 percent, according to a letter to investors seen by Reuters…The letter said that "virtually every long position" that the firm had was profitable in the third quarter, and that it added a "medium-sized long position" in Osram Licht AG .

There doesn't exist a valid excuse for supressing scientific research with psychedelics. Like is said, psychedelics are for psychiatry and neuroscience the same as microscope is for microbiologist. Science is for seeking facts and truth, and it shouldn't be influenced by politics. MAPS is out there to change that and with decades of hard work, they are finally seeing the results. MAPS's work may result in dramatic changes in the medical fields mentioned.
