Listed below are vitamin and mineral dietary intake recommendations for individuals over the age of 50 years. For each micronutrient, the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine establishes a recommended dietary allowance (RDA) or adequate intake (AI). Generally, the Linus Pauling Institute supports the recommendations of the Food and Nutrition Board, but any discrepancies in dietary recommendations are listed in the rightmost column of the table. Additionally, more information on the Linus Pauling Institute recommendation for a specific micronutrient can be found by clicking on the name of the micronutrient of interest.

#Vitamin B12 intake should be from supplements or fortified foods due to the age-related increase in malabsorption
Abbreviations: mcg=microgram; mg=milligram; g=gram; IU=International Unit; RDA=Recommended Dietary Allowance; AI=Adequate Intake
Presently, there is no indication that older adults have an increased requirement for biotin. If dietary biotin intake is not sufficient, a daily multivitamin/multimineral supplement will generally provide an intake of at least 30 mcg of biotin/day.
Folic acid:
The Linus Pauling Institute recommends that adults take a 400 mcg supplement of folic acid daily, in addition to folate and folic acid consumed in the diet. A daily multivitamin-mineral supplement, containing 100% of the Daily Value (DV) for folic acid provides 400 mcg of folic acid. Even with a larger than average intake of folic acid from fortified foods, it is unlikely that an individual's daily folic acid intake would regularly exceed the tolerable upper intake level of 1,000 mcg/day established by the Food and Nutrition Board. The recommendation for 400 mcg/day of supplemental folic acid as part of a daily multivitamin-multimineral supplement, in addition to a folate-rich diet, is especially important for older adults because blood homocysteine levels tend to increase with age.
Dietary surveys indicate that 15% to 25% of older adults do not consume enough niacin in their diets to meet the RDA (16 mg NE/day for men and 14 mg NE/day for women), and that dietary intake of niacin decreases between the ages of 60 and 90 years. Thus, it is advisable for older adults to supplement their dietary intake with a multivitamin/multimineral supplement, which will generally provide at least 20 mg of niacin daily.
Pantothenic acid:
Presently, there is little evidence that older adults differ in their intake or requirement for pantothenic acid. Most multivitamin/multimineral supplements provide at least 5 mg/day of pantothenic acid. The Linus Pauling Institute supports the recommendation by the Food and Nutrition Board of 5 mg/day of pantothenic acid for older adults. A varied diet should provide enough pantothenic acid for most people. Following the Linus Pauling Institute recommendation to take a daily multivitamin-mineral supplement, containing 100% of the Daily Value (DV), will ensure an intake of at least 5 mg/day of pantothenic acid.
Some experts in nutrition and aging feel that the RDA (1.3 mg/day for men and 1.1 mg/day for women) leaves little margin for error in people over 50 years of age (1, 2). A study of independently living people between 65 and 90 years of age found that almost 25% consumed less than the recommended riboflavin intake, and 10% had biochemical evidence of deficiency (3). Additionally, epidemiological studies of cataract prevalence indicate that riboflavin intakes of 1.6 to 2.2 mg/day may reduce the risk of developing age-related cataracts. Individuals whose diets may not supply adequate riboflavin, especially those over 50, should consider taking a multivitamin/multimineral supplement, which generally provides at least 1.7 mg of riboflavin/day.
Presently, there is no evidence that the requirement for thiamin is increased in older adults, but some studies have found inadequate dietary intake and thiamin insufficiency to be more common in elderly populations (2). Thus, it would be prudent for older adults to take a multivitamin/multimineral supplement, which will generally provide at least 1.5 mg of thiamin/day.
Vitamin A:
Currently, there is little evidence that the requirement for vitamin A in older adults differs from that of younger adults. Additionally, because intestinal absorption of vitamin A may increase with age (2), vitamin A toxicity may occur at lower doses in older adults than in younger adults. Following the Linus Pauling Institute's recommendation to take a multivitamin/multimineral supplement daily could supply as much as 5,000 IU/day of retinol, the amount that has been associated with adverse effects on bone health in older adults. For this reason, we recommend taking a multivitamin/multimineral supplement that provides no more than 2,500 IU of vitamin A or a supplement that provides 5,000 IU of vitamin A, of which at least 50% comes from beta-carotene (see example supplement label). High potency vitamin A supplements should not be used without medical supervision due to the risk of toxicity.
Vitamin B6:
Metabolic studies have indicated that the requirement for vitamin B6 in older adults is approximately 2.0 mg daily (4); this requirement could be even higher if the effect of marginally deficient vitamin B6 intakes on immune function and homocysteine levels are clarified. Despite evidence that the requirement for vitamin B6 may be slightly higher in older adults, several surveys have found that over half of individuals over age 60 consume less than the current RDA (1.7 mg/day for men and 1.5 mg/day for women). For these reasons, the Linus Pauling Institute recommends that older adults take a multivitamin/multimineral supplement, which generally provides at least 2.0 mg of vitamin B6 daily.
Vitamin B12:
Because vitamin B12 malabsorption and vitamin B12 deficiency are more common in older adults, some respected nutritionists recommend that adults older than 50 years take 100 to 400 mcg/day of supplemental vitamin B12, an amount provided by a number of vitamin B-complex supplements.
Vitamin C:
Older adults may have higher requirements for vitamin C than younger people. A meta-analysis of 36 publications examining the relationship between vitamin C intake and plasma concentrations of vitamin C concluded that older adults (age 60-96 years) have lower plasma levels following a certain intake of vitamin C compared with younger individuals (age 15-65 years) (5), suggesting that older adults may indeed have higher vitamin C requirements. Moreover, some older populations have been found to have vitamin C intakes considerably below the RDA of 75 mg/day and 90 mg/day for women and men, respectively. Studies conducted at the National Institutes of Health indicate that plasma and circulating cells in healthy, young subjects attain maximal concentrations of vitamin C at a dose of about 400 mg/day-a dose much higher than the current RDA. Pharmacokinetic studies in older adults have not yet been conducted, but evidence suggests that the efficiency of one of the molecular mechanisms for the cellular uptake of vitamin C declines with age (6). Because maximizing blood levels of vitamin C may be important in protection against oxidative damage to cells and biological molecules, a vitamin C intake of at least 400 mg daily is particularly important for older adults who are at higher risk for chronic diseases caused, in part, by oxidative damage, such as heart disease, stroke, or cataract. Consuming at least five servings (2½ cups) of fruits and vegetables daily may provide about 200 mg of vitamin C. Most multivitamin supplements provide 60 mg of vitamin C.
Vitamin D:
The Linus Pauling Institute recommends that generally healthy adults take 2,000 IU (50 mcg) of supplemental vitamin D daily. Most multivitamins contain 400 IU of vitamin D, and single ingredient vitamin D supplements are available for additional supplementation. Sun exposure, diet, skin color, and obesity have variable, substantial impact on body vitamin D levels. To adjust for individual differences and ensure adequate body vitamin D status, the Linus Pauling Institute recommends aiming for a serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level of at least 80 nmol/L (32 ng/mL). Numerous observational studies have found that serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels of 80 nmol/L (32 ng/mL) and above are associated with reduced risk of bone fractures, several cancers, multiple sclerosis, and type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes. Daily supplementation with 2,000 IU (50 mcg) of vitamin D is especially important for older adults because aging is associated with a reduced capacity to synthesize vitamin D in the skin upon sun exposure.
Vitamin E:
Scientists at the Linus Pauling Institute feel there exists credible evidence that taking a supplement of 200 IU of natural-source d-alpha-tocopherol (RRR-alpha-tocopherol) daily with a meal may help protect adults from chronic diseases like heart disease, stroke, neurodegenerative diseases, and some types of cancer. This recommendation is also appropriate for older adults. The amount of alpha-tocopherol required for such beneficial effects appears to be much greater than that which could be achieved through diet alone. Because supplements containing 200 IU of d-alpha-tocopherol are often as expensive as supplements containing 400 IU of d-alpha-tocopherol, a less expensive alternative may be to take 400 IU of d-alpha-tocopherol every other day. It is important that alpha-tocopherol supplements be taken with a meal containing some fat.
Vitamin K:
Older adults are at increased risk of osteoporosis and hip fracture. Because adequate intake of vitamin K is essential in maintaining bone health, the Linus Pauling Institute recommends that adults take a multivitamin-mineral supplement and consume at least 1 cup of dark green leafy vegetables daily. Although the AI for vitamin K was recently increased, it is not clear if it will be enough to optimize the gamma-carboxylation of vitamin K-dependent proteins in bone (see Osteoporosis section of the article on vitamin K). Multivitamins generally contain 10 to 25 mcg of vitamin K, whereas vitamin K or "bone" supplements may contain 100 to 120 mcg of vitamin K. To consume the amount of vitamin K associated with a decreased risk of hip fracture in the Framingham Heart Study (about 250 mcg/day) (7), an individual would need to eat a little more than 1/2 cup of chopped broccoli or a large salad of mixed greens every day. In addition to taking a multivitamin-mineral supplement and eating at least 1 cup of dark green leafy vegetables daily, replacing dietary saturated fats (e.g., butter and cheese) with monounsaturated fats (e.g., olive and canola oils) will increase dietary vitamin K intake and may also decrease the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
To minimize bone loss, older men (> 70 years) and postmenopausal women should consume a total (diet plus supplements) of 1,200 mg/day of calcium. Men aged 51-70 years should consume 1,000 mg of calcium per day. No multivitamin/multimineral supplement contains the RDA for calcium (1,000-1,200 mg/day) because the resulting pill would be too large to swallow. If your total daily calcium intake doesn't add up to 1,000 mg, LPI recommends taking an extra calcium supplement (combined with magnesiumsee below) with a meal.
Although the requirement for chromium is not known to be higher for older adults, one study found that chromium concentrations in hair, sweat, and urine decreased with age (8). Following the Linus Pauling Institute recommendation to take a multivitamin/multimineral supplement containing 100% of the daily values (DV) of most nutrients should provide sufficient chromium for most older adults.
Because impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes are associated with potentially serious health problems, individuals considering high-dose chromium supplementation to treat either condition should do so in collaboration with a qualified health care provider.
Aging has not been associated with significant changes in the requirement for copper (9); thus, the Linus Pauling Institute recommendation for copper intake in older adults is the same as younger adults. The RDA for copper (900 mcg/day for all adults) is sufficient to prevent deficiency, but the lack of clear indicators of copper nutritional status in humans makes it difficult to determine the level of copper intake most likely to promote optimum health or prevent chronic disease. A varied diet should provide enough copper for most people. For those who are concerned that their diet may not provide adequate copper, a multivitamin/multimineral supplement will generally provide at least the RDA for copper.
The safety and public health benefits of optimally fluoridated water for prevention of tooth decay in people of all ages have been well-established. The Linus Pauling Institute supports the recommendations of the American Dental Association and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which include optimally fluoridated water as well as the use of fluoride toothpaste, fluoride mouthrinse, fluoride varnish, and when necessary, fluoride supplementation. Due to the risk of fluorosis, any fluoride supplementation should be prescribed and closely monitored by a dentist or physician.
The RDA for iodine (150 mcg/day for men and women) is sufficient to ensure normal thyroid function. There is presently no evidence that iodine intakes higher than the RDA are beneficial. Most people in the U.S. consume more than sufficient iodine in their diets, making supplementation unnecessary.
A study in an elderly population found that high iron stores were much more common than iron deficiency (10). Thus, older adults should not generally take nutritional supplements containing iron unless they have been diagnosed with iron deficiency. Moreover, it is extremely important to determine the underlying cause of the iron deficiency, rather than simply treating it with iron supplements.
Older adults are less likely than younger adults to consume enough magnesium to meet their needs and should therefore take care to eat magnesium-rich foods in addition to taking a multivitamin-mineral supplement daily. However, no multivitamin/mineral supplement contains 100% of the DV for magnesium. If you dont eat plenty of green leafy vegetables, whole grains, and nuts, you likely are not getting enough magnesium from your diet. If you add a magnesium supplement, LPI recommends a combined magnesium-calcium supplement containing 133-250 mg of magnesium and 333-500 mg of calcium with a meal. Because older adults are more likely to have impaired kidney function, they should avoid taking more than 350 mg/day of supplemental magnesium without medical consultation (see Safety section of the article on magnesium).
The requirement for manganese is not known to be higher for older adults compared to younger adults. However, liver disease is more common in older adults and may increase the risk of manganese toxicity by decreasing the elimination of manganese from the body (see Toxicity section of the article on manganese). Manganese supplementation beyond 100% of the Daily Value (DV=2 mg/day) is not recommended.
Because aging has not been associated with significant changes in the requirement for molybdenum (11), the Linus Pauling Institute recommendation for older adults is the same as that for younger adults. Specifically, the RDA for molybdenum, 45 mcg/day for adults of all ages, is sufficient to prevent deficiency. Although the intake of molybdenum most likely to promote optimum health is not known, there is presently no evidence that intakes higher than the RDA are beneficial. Most people in the U.S. consume more than sufficient molybdenum in their diets, making supplementation unnecessary. Following the Linus Pauling Institute's general recommendation to take a multivitamin-mineral supplement that contains 100% of the daily values (DV) for most nutrients is likely to provide 75 mcg/day of molybdenum because the DV for molybdenum has not been revised to reflect the most recent RDA. Although the amount of molybdenum presently found in most multivitamin-mineral supplements is higher than the RDA, it is well below the tolerable upper intake level (UL) of 2,000 mcg/day and should be safe for adults.
At present, there is no evidence that the phosphorus requirements of older adults differ from that of younger adults (700 mg/day). Although few multivitamin/multimineral supplements contain more than 15% of the current RDA for phosphorus, a varied diet should easily provide adequate phosphorus for most people.
A diet supplying at least 4.7 grams/day of potassium is appropriate for healthy older adults because such diets are associated with decreased risk of stroke, hypertension, osteoporosis, and kidney stones. This recommendation does not apply to individuals who have been advised to limit potassium consumption by a health care professional (see Safety section of the article on potassium).
Aging has not been associated with significant changes in the requirement for selenium. The Linus Pauling Institute supports the recommendation of the Food and Nutrition Board, which is 55 mcg of selenium/day for adults of all ages. Although the amount of selenium in multivitamin/multimineral supplements varies considerably, multivitamin-mineral supplements rarely provide more than the Daily Value (DV) of 70 mcg. The average American diet is estimated to provide about 100 mcg/day of selenium (12, 13). Thus, eating a varied diet and taking a daily multivitamin supplement should provide sufficient selenium for most adults in the U.S.
There is consistent evidence that diets relatively low in salt (5.8 grams/day or less) and high in potassium (at least 4.7 grams/day) are associated with decreased risk of high blood pressure and the associated risks of cardiovascular and kidney diseases. Diets low in sodium and rich in potassium are likely to be of particular benefit for older individuals, who are at increased risk of high blood pressure. Moreover, the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) trial demonstrated that a diet emphasizing fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and low-fat dairy products substantially lowered blood pressure, an effect that was enhanced by reducing salt intake to 5.8 grams/day or less. For more information on the DASH diet, see the article on sodium. The Linus Pauling Institute recommends a diet that is rich in fruits and vegetables (at least 5 servings/day) and limits processed foods that are high in salt. Sensitivity to the blood pressure-raising effects of salt increases with age; therefore, consuming diets that are low in salt and high in potassium may especially benefit older adults.
Diets rich in potassium (at least 4.7 grams/day) and low in salt (5.8 grams/day or less) are likely to be of particular benefit for older adults, who are at increased risk of high blood pressure along with its associated risks of cardiovascular and kidney diseases. Since sensitivity to the blood pressure-raising effects of salt increases with age, consuming diets that are low in salt and high in potassium may especially benefit older adults.
Although the requirement for zinc is not known to be higher for older adults, their average zinc intake tends to be considerably less than the RDA. A reduced capacity to absorb zinc, increased likelihood of disease states that alter zinc utilization, and increased use of drugs that increase zinc excretion may contribute to an increased risk of mild zinc deficiency in older adults. Because the consequences of mild zinc deficiency, such as impaired immune system function, are particularly relevant to the health of older adults, they should pay particular attention to maintaining adequate zinc intake.
Other Nutrients
Age-related declines in mitochondrial function and increases in mitochondrial oxidant production are thought to be important contributors to the adverse effects of aging. Tissue L-carnitine levels have been found to decline with age in humans and animals (14). One study found that feeding aged rats acetyl-L-carnitine (ALCAR) reversed the age-related declines in tissue L-carnitine levels and also reversed a number of age-related changes in liver mitochondrial function; however, high doses of ALCAR increased liver mitochondrial oxidant production (15). More recently, two studies found that supplementing aged rats with either ALCAR or alpha-lipoic acid, a mitochondrial cofactor and antioxidant, improved mitochondrial energy metabolism, decreased oxidative stress, and improved memory (16, 17). Interestingly, co-supplementation of ALCAR and alpha-lipoic acid resulted in even greater improvements than either compound administered alone. Likewise, several studies have reported that supplementing rats with both L-carnitine and alpha-lipoic acid blunts the age-related increases in reactive oxygen species (ROS), lipid peroxidation, protein carbonylation, and DNA strand breaks in a variety of tissues (heart, skeletal muscle, brain). Improvements in mitochondrial enzyme and respiratory chain activities were also observed (18-26). While these findings are very exciting, it is important to realize that these studies used relatively high doses (100 to 300 mg/kg body weight/day) of the compounds and only for a short time (one month). It is not yet known whether taking relatively high doses of these two naturally occurring substances will benefit rats in the long-term or will have similar effects in humans. Clinical trials in humans are planned, but it will be several years before the results are available. If you choose to take carnitine supplements, the Linus Pauling Institute recommends acetyl-L-carnitine at a daily dose of 500 to 1,000 mg.
Little is known regarding the amount of dietary choline most likely to promote optimum health or prevent chronic disease in older adults. At present, there is no evidence to support a different intake of choline from that of younger adults (550 mg/day for men and 425 mg/day for women).
Coenzyme Q10:
According to the free radical and mitochondrial theories of aging, oxidative damage of cell structures by reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays an important role in the functional declines that accompany aging (27). ROS are generated by mitochondria as a byproduct of ATP production. If not neutralized by antioxidants, ROS may damage mitochondria over time, causing them to function less efficiently and to generate more damaging ROS in a self-perpetuating cycle. Coenzyme Q10 plays an important role in mitochondrial ATP synthesis and functions as an antioxidant in mitochondrial membranes. Moreover, tissue levels of coenzyme Q10 have been reported to decline with age (28). One of the hallmarks of aging is a decline in energy metabolism in many tissues, especially liver, heart, and skeletal muscle. It has been proposed that age-associated declines in tissue coenzyme Q10 levels may play a role in this decline (26). In recent studies, lifelong dietary supplementation with coenzyme Q10 did not increase the life spans of rats or mice (29, 30); however, one study showed that coenzyme Q10 supplementation attenuates the age-related increase in DNA damage (31). Presently, there is no scientific evidence that coenzyme Q10 supplementation prolongs life or prevents age-related functional declines in humans.
Essential Fatty Acids:
Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 fatty acid, and linoleic acid (LA), an omega-6 fatty acid, are considered essential fatty acids because they cannot be synthesized by humans. In 2002, the Food and Nutrition Board of the U.S. Institute of Medicine established adequate intake (AI) levels for omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids. Essential fatty acid recommendations for adults over the age of 50 are listed in the table below. For more information on ALA and LA, see the article on essential fatty acids.
|Adequate Intake (AI) for Essential Fatty Acids (32)
|Essential Fatty Acid
|ALA (> 50 years)
|1.6 g/day
|1.1 g/day
|LA (> 50 years)
|14 g/day
|11 g/day
Abbreviations: ALA=alpha-linolenic acid; LA=linoleic acid; g=grams
International Recommendations
The European Commission recommends an omega-6 fatty acid intake of 4-8% of energy and an omega-3 fatty acid intake of 2 g/day of ALA and 200 mg/day of long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) (33). The World Health Organization recommends an omega-6 fatty acid intake of 5-8% of energy and an omega-3 fatty acid intake of 1-2% of energy (34). However, the Japan Society for Lipid Nutrition has recommended that LA intake be reduced to 3-4% of energy in Japanese people whose omega-3 fatty acid intakes average 2.6 g/day, including about 1 g/day of EPA + DHA (35).
American Heart Association Recommendation
The American Heart Association recommends that people without documented CHD eat a variety of fish (preferably oily) at least twice weekly, in addition to consuming oils and foods rich in ALA (36). People with documented CHD are advised to consume approximately 1 g/day of EPA + DHA preferably from oily fish, or to consider EPA + DHA supplements in consultation with a physician. Patients who need to lower serum triglycerides may take 2-4 g/day of EPA + DHA supplements under a physician's care.
Lipoic Acid:
Lipoic acid alone or in combination with other antioxidants or L-carnitine has been found to improve measures of memory in animal models of age-associated cognitive decline, including rats (16, 17), mice (37), and dogs (38). However, it is not clear whether oral lipoic acid supplementation can slow cognitive decline related to aging or other pathology in humans. An uncontrolled, open-label trial in nine patients with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias, who were also taking acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, reported that oral supplementation with 600 mg/day of racemic lipoic acid appeared to stabilize cognitive function over a one-year period (39). However, the significance of these findings is difficult to assess without a control group for comparison. A randomized controlled trial found that oral supplementation with 1,200 mg/day of racemic lipoic acid for ten weeks was of no benefit in treating HIV-associated cognitive impairment (40). Although studies in animals suggest that lipoic acid may be helpful in slowing age-related cognitive decline, randomized controlled trials are needed to determine whether lipoic acid supplementation is effective in preventing or slowing cognitive decline associated with age or neurodegenerative disease. If you choose to take lipoic acid supplements, the Linus Pauling Institute recommends a daily dose of 200-400 mg/day of racemic lipoic acid for generally healthy people.
The prevalence of several neurodegenerative disease increases with advanced age. Inflammation, oxidative stress, and transition metal accumulation appear to play a role in the pathology of several neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease. Because flavonoids have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and metal-chelating properties, scientists are interested in the neuroprotective potential of flavonoid-rich diets or individual flavonoids. At present, the extent to which various dietary flavonoids and flavonoid metabolites cross the blood-brain barrier in humans is not known (41). Although flavonoid-rich diets and flavonoid administration have been found to prevent cognitive impairment associated with aging and inflammation in some animal studies (42-45), prospective cohort studies have not found consistent inverse associations between flavonoid intake and the risk of dementia or neurodegenerative disease in humans (46-50).
In a cohort of Japanese-American men followed for 25-30 years, flavonoid intake from tea during midlife was not associated with the risk of Alzheimer's or other types of dementia in late life (46). Surprisingly, higher intakes of isoflavone-rich tofu during midlife were associated with cognitive impairment and brain atrophy in late life (see the article on soy isoflavones) (47). A prospective study of Dutch adults found that total dietary flavonoid intake was not associated with the risk of developing Parkinson's disease (48) or Alzheimer's disease (49), except in current smokers whose risk of Alzheimer's disease decreased by 50% for every 12 mg increase in daily flavonoid intake. In contrast, a study of elderly French men and women found that those with the lowest flavonoid intakes had a risk of developing dementia over the next five years that was 50% higher than those with the highest intakes (50). More recently, a study in 1,640 elderly men and women found that those with higher dietary flavonoid intake (>13.6 mg/day) had better cognitive performance at baseline and experienced significantly less age-related cognitive decline over a 10-year period than those with a lower flavonoid intake (0-10.4 mg/day) (51). Additionally, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial in 202 postmenopausal women reported that daily supplementation with 25.6 g of soy protein (containing 99 mg of isoflavones) for one year did not improve cognitive function (52). However, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over trial in 77 postmenopausal women found that 6-month supplementation with 60 mg/day of isoflavones improved some measures of cognitive performance (53). Although scientists are interested in the potential of flavonoids to protect the aging brain, it is not yet clear how flavonoid consumption affects neurodegenerative disease risk in humans.
Caloric restriction is known to extend the lifespans of a number of species, including mammals (54). In yeast, caloric restriction stimulates the activity of an enzyme known as Sir2 (55). Providing resveratrol to yeast increased Sir2 activity in the absence of caloric restriction and extended the replicative lifespan of yeast by 70% (56). Resveratrol feeding also extended the lifespans of worms (C. elegans) and fruit flies (D. melanogaster) by a similar mechanism (55). Moreover, one study showed that resveratrol extended the lifespan of mice on a high-calorie diet (57), but effects in higher animals are not known. Although resveratrol increased the activity of the homologous human enzyme (Sirt1) in the test tube (56), it is not known whether resveratrol can extend the human lifespan. Moreover, the resveratrol concentrations required to increase human Sirt1 activity were considerably higher than concentrations that have been measured in human plasma after oral consumption.

Community Service
Taking responsibility by giving back.
Central Penn College is committed to a philosophy of community service that prepares graduates to be contributing members of society.
That's why all students are required to fulfill a service assignment prior to graduation. More than just an obligation, community service is an opportunity to learn, grow and gain social skills vital to life.
You can serve on campus or in an external service organization, but you must be an unpaid volunteer. It is not necessary to perform your service all at once. Hours can be earned anytime during enrollment.
Though club membership and meetings don't count, club service projects like the Homeless Sleep Out or Soup Kitchen qualify.
All students are required to hand in a completed service log to the internship advisor with their completed internship packets. All hours must be tracked in a log.
Internship grades will not be issued without successful completion of this service requirement. Continuing Education, transfer students and students that change majors or degree levels must also fulfill this requirement. Students who have already completed an internship will need to work with their academic advisor to ensure this goal is met prior to graduation.
Below are just a few of the organizations Central Penn students have served. New suggestions for community service are always welcome, but be sure the organization qualifies before you commit.
Charitable and service organizations. Would you like to see your opportunities posted here? Please email us with all of your particulars including organization name, address, contact information (phone number and email) and a short paragraph on your activities. We'll review your information and post it to our Website in no time!
Community Service Requirements

Tuna, Albacore – Hawaii, Longline (Bin'naga maguro)
Albacore Tuna are a highly migratory fish found throughout the world's temperate and tropical seas. While Albacore in the Pacific Ocean is reasonably abundant and healthy, it's less abundant in the North Atlantic.
Longlines are the most common method used to catch Albacore Tuna. They result in large quantities of bycatch, including threatened or endangered species such as sea turtles, sharks and seabirds. In the U.S. Hawaii fishery however, management regulations are in place to reduce affects on bycatch species.
This fish may have high levels of mercury that could pose a health risk to adults and children. More info here about mercury in tuna. Check out our mercury in seafood section.

How to Shop Bathroom Sinks
Nowadays it is a bit difficult to imagine a contemporary bathroom without a fashionable, smartly designed bathroom sink. The main function of any sink is to provide its owner with a convenient area for washing up, brushing teeth, shaving and other daily water procedures. Nowadays, a bathroom sink can not only serve as a functional bathroom fixture, but also become its focal point. The variety of styles, designs, models and manufacturers only contribute to this additional aesthetic bathroom sink feature.
Obviously, the design and its beauty is extremely important, but before you make a decision on your final purchase it is recommended to check several technical issues.
Any bathroom sink can be evaluated by three main characteristics:
- Installation Types. Wall Mounted Sinks are installed directly on the wall and are mainly suitable for the small sized bathrooms. There is also a usable space provided below the sink, which is of great importance in the restricted space. Pedestal Bathroom Sinks are also suitable for small bathrooms because they do not require vanities. This type of sinks can be also mounted to the wall, but at the same time it rests on a pedestal located right below the sink. Top Mounted or Countertop Sinks are placed inside a vanity top cutout. Such sinks secure themselves with a rim and can be also used with a tiled countertop. They are also called self-rimming or drop-in sinks. Undercounter Bathroom Sinks are placed below the vanity top or counter, providing an uninterrupted solid surface between the sink and the vanity top. Console Sinks refer to the wall mounted sinks, but are also supported by two legs installed at the front of the console sink. Vessel Bathroom Sinks are designed as a free-standing bowl that simply rests on the vanity top surface. Some sinks can be partially reassessed into the countertop. This type of sinks is the mast variable one with hundreds of styles and art designs.
- Configuration Types. The bathroom sink configuration depends on the type of faucets that a householder is using. Depending on the faucet design, a bathroom sink may have either one or three holes on its back panel.
- Material. Vitreous China, Fireclay or Porcelain – this is the most common kind of material used for bathroom sinks production. Such sinks have easily cleaned surface and can be cracked even after a slight knocking. Glass material is widely used for vessel sinks. They can be performed in numerous colors, designs and styles. The tempered glass is preferable for bathroom sinks production. It is more resistant to shattering or cracking.
Among other widely used materials cast iron, metal, stone, concrete, solid surfaces, wood, and even bamboo are used for bathroom sinks. No matter what material or mounting style is used, all bathroom sinks can offer benefits like ease of cleaning, heat and crack resistance, spots protection, reinforced solid surfaces, and environmentally friendly performance.

Someone explain to me again why Linux viruses aren't more common? Sounds like some pretty simple ones could be damn hilarious...
And when I say hard lock, I really do mean hard lock. A reboot of the system ("shutdown -r now") isn't enough. To get a working display you have to shut down ("shutdown -h now"), then pull out the power cord, wait half a second for all capacitors to run dry, put the cord back in and restart...
Someone explain to me again why Linux viruses aren't more common? Sounds like some pretty simple ones could be damn hilarious...
Funny viruses are awesome. Destructive ones are not.
Can't wait for the 'eject disc drive for use as a cupholder' exploit :P
Or pherhaps they framebuffer hardlock where the text "Arf! Arf! Arf! Gotcha!" keeps being displayed until you shutdown hard and unplug the powercable xD
Aww, nice work ! It's really great to see some r600+ work materializing again after quite a long time.
And on gentoo there is a new eselect-mesa ebuild in the x11 overlay which makes switching between classic and gallium drivers a breeze ... wonderful :-)
However, the kernel's command stream checker is focused on making sure that programs can't use GPU commands to access memory that doesn't belong to them. That doesn't seem to be a problem here.
You seem to be saying that the CS checker should do more analysis than it currently does. While it may be possible to teach it to guard against the instruction pattern that causes this particular lockup, there are probably many others that fubar the GPU just as bad. The problem is analogous to determining if an x86 binary will segfault before you run it, AKA the halting problem.
Since it isn't possible to solve the problem with full generality, how much CPU overhead would you accept in your graphics driver for little gain in stability?

The Sonys are cheaper, but I am sure those will be nice as well.
The Sonys are cheaper, but I am sure those will be nice as well.
I personally like Audiotechnica headphones. I have the ATH A900 art monitors and thye are super comfortable and sound great. Not the best for bass . If your using them with a laptop you should look into external sound cards / headphone amps as well. Really helps bring out the sound.
I just purchased these Koss PortaPro Headphones and started listening with them yesterday. They sound great and have a great 80's style look to them. The sound is so powerful I feel like i'm wearing my big clunky Sennheiser's. I purchased these for work because I wasn't entirely satisified with the sound I was getting from my bluetooth Rocketfish headphones (though they are pretty decent). These Koss headphones are noticebly more crisp and have very good and deep bass that was missing from the Rocketfish. I do the majority of my music listening at my desk at work so I expect to get heavy use out of these.
They are fairly inexpensive at right around $30.
To this day, I think Koss makes the most comfortable earbud, which also have that added bass you were talking about.

I couldn't find a more suitable thread, but can anyone recommend a good ipod (preferably portable) home theater system? I was going to go with Bose, but I'm sure there are other options worth considering. Thanks.
Portable and home theatre system kind of conflict in wants... Are you specifically looking for something with an ipod dock that you can take with you everywhere, but also isn't too quiet? At Fry's the best option I've seen is about ~$100 or less for a Sony boombox that gets pretty good volume, it also plays CDs (a lot of docks boomboxes dont)
Problem with the Bose dock - needs to be plugged in. That's where it stops being portable for me. A friend of mine found a solar powered ipod (brookstone or bed&bath?) speaker dock, it sounded great and was around $150. The charges definitely lasted a while as long as you fully charged it before blasting some music.
I've got a Sony 7.1 receiver that also has a wireless adapter for your local network, so you could get a great setup for your home where you can play simply from your laptop, it just wouldn't be portable.
I have a less than stellar battery powered portable that I take camping and what not. This one I just want to keep in my house (but ideally would be able to move it from room to room without much effort).
EDIT* Something that won't take up a ton of space.
Mugwog is correct in that anything that can be battery powered probably won't give you the desired power for home use. you might be looking for two different items here. Heather has a Bose dock that is tiny and the volume and clarity that comes out of those tiny speakers is pretty amazing. It's very easy to move around, but it does require being plugged in.

i'm looking for headphones. i am ok buying two sets of headphones if need be.
i mainly use my iPod at work to drown everyone else out and while exercising (walking/elliptical). i've found while using the elliptical that my headphone cords are too long and get caught on things. also the buds tend to fall out of my ears. and i made the mistake of buying a really awful pair that sound almost like a stethoscope in that i can hear everything the cord touches.
any recommendations for quality headphones in both categories?
I've also Sennheiser RS 140's because I love to use wireless headphones so i've buy it...
You can probably find them a little cheaper than 150 if you look around. I normally don't recommend Beats but these are great for working out. They also have the ones that hook over your ear, but these definitely stay put without it.
Last edited by ods..; 01-03-2013 at 03:04 AM.
I got my gal a pair of Beats, she's really digging them. I'm a little jealous myself and was hesitant to even buy them at first. I am thoroughly impressed with the clarity and range of sound. I want a pair, but I destroy earbuds/Headphones in general. I don't want to mangle a $100+ set in a weeks time.
I want these. Badly.
Ultimate Ears 900, quad armature
Anyone recommend some headphones or earbuds that are good at blocking out engine noise on airplanes but don't cost a fortune? I'd mostly be using them for watching movies so the ability to hear dialog over engine noise without playing them at full blast is more important than overall audio quality.
They've been much discussed in here, but I found the Sennheiser HD 280 Pros to be great for that, and they can be had for under $100. They definitely do not do what Bose noise-canceling headphones do (which is completely insane in how effective they are), but it was a night and day difference compared to the earbuds i had used previously. They're great headphones regardless of travel uses too.

The Sennheisers look nice. Earbuds would be more convenient for travel, but the Senns could be an option if I can't find any earbuds that would do the trick at a similar price.
The Audio Technica ATH M50's are one of the best purchases I've ever made.
I mistakenly posted in a different thread. Sorry for the double-post.
Anyone here have input on quality headphones (primarily for my laptop, iPad and sometimes my iPhone)?
I am looking at picking up a pair of Bowers & Wilkens P7s. I have had a pair of P5s for a couple of years which I really enjoy but I am told the P7s are a significant step up in quality. The P5s are considered 'on-ear' while the P7s are 'over-ear' which assists with better sound...
I am open to suggestions and thought someone here would have an informed opinion. Any ideas?
I have V-Moda's (Crossfade LP2?) and LOVE THEM. I dont think I will want another pair of headphones unless they break somehow. The sound is great for me yet I'm not a audiophile and I like that the Headset is made from Metal so it won't shatter like Beat's headset does. Also they look really cool.

What type of music do you listen to, and how faithful of a reproduction of the original recording are you looking the 'phones to put out?
If you're looking for a flat response, I'd go with the Sennheiser HD25s.
northside groove...southside groove....eastside groove...westside groove
It's recommended a lot in this thread but I have the Sennheiser HD 280 Pro and love it. Super durable and fits big heads. The cord is really long so doesn't work well on the move. But I use it all the time with laptop, receivers/mixer, and iPad for at home listening.
In case anyone's interested, I ended up getting Audio-Technica-ATH-ANC7B for noise cancelling on flights, and they work great. I flew with a friend who has the Bose headphones and was able to do a direct comparison. The Bose do cancel better, but not $150 better. The Audio-Technicas have worked out really well.
I think I am going to swing by a store this afternoon and do a side-by-side test with Sennheiser HD25s vs. my P5s.
I felt the same about my P5s - I never thought I would want another pair of headphones. Unfortunately, I lent them to my best friend to try and he fell asleep with them on, rolled over and crushed the volume control on the wire....
I have a big head, too, and it's true that the Audio Technicas have sometimes bothered me a little on really long flights, but overall I haven't had much of a problem with that. I wouldn't really recommend them for daily use, especially for music. I think their strength is the noise cancellation for the price. I use them to listen to movies/TV shows on planes, not for listening to music.

I told him I thought he didn't like maple syrup, but he replied that he didn't until he tasted this one. Now, we never buy cane syrup any more!" - Juanda Levert, Greenwell Springs, LA
"My husband and I received a small pint of Vermont maple syrup as a gift from one of our suppliers. My husband is a huge fan of my homemade buttermilk pancakes and loved spreading the syrup all over them. We ran out and could not find out how to get any more. First of all we couldn't remember which vendor gave it to us, and second of all there was not any information on the plastic jug. It just said "Vermont Maple Syrup," no address or anything. Since we ran out I have bought other maple syrups, but my husband just has not liked anything since he tried yours. We are sold on your product. Thank you," - Juanda Levert, Greenwell Springs, LA
"I clean condos and my friends from Vermont bring me a quart of Vermont maple syrup every December when they return for the winter. I look forward to their return, and especially their gift of the delicious syrup. They always remember me and say, 'Here's your jug of liquid gold.' " - Donna Canalou
"Your operator, when I first called many years ago, swore by your syrup being the best. So I tried it and I definitely agree it is the best. I have given some little containers as gifts to my friends to try, and now they also are hooked on the best. Unless you have tried Vermont's maple syrup I guess you really don't know what's the best. We no longer are satisfied with the regular syrups from our market. My neighbor's daughter just asked her, 'Where is the special maple syrup that Pat gave us? I don't like this one anymore.' It's so funny...Another one hooked on Vermont's Maple Syrup." - Patsy Petersen, Mililani, HI
"Your maple syrup is the best -- I have been ordering it for decades. Why do you no longer sell half-gallon metal or plastic containers? Freight on two quarts is very high for a constant user. Just a point -- I will always enjoy your products. From a transplanted Connecticut-ite!" - Donald Schuster, Dallas, TX
"Why would anyone use anything but maple syrup for any recipe that requests syrup? It is the real thing--not made by man. It comes from real trees in Vermont, and other lesser known regions like NY State & Canada, too. Vermont is the best for most everything."- Christina Allen, Centennial, CO

It really depends if this sim will take injuries into account. Jay Williams was a high pick for a reason, but with what happened to him, is it safe for a team to draft him high? That's the question I have. Same with Yao and Amare who have injury histories. I'm leaning towards Yao right now.
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
Grant Hill has already played pretty much two full seasons which were when he was injured. think you're safe.
And I went 2-1 beat the bulls for a solid win...lost to the hornets held KG to 13 points only to see Erick Barkley drop 30
2-1 against lower tie teams. I am also in that tier.

2-1, not bad. Vince dropped 45 one game which is nice.
Why are we only simming 1 week at a time now though?
He did the same thing last season with the last month. We had one week sims.
Honestly, unless a team can stack its roster with All-Stars, rebuilding is the way to go.

Cottage Cheese Cornbread
When I make chili I often think about cornbread. This time I remembered reading about a cottage cheese cornbread that I had thought sounded really nice. I like cottage cheese but I don't have it nearly often as I would like and this was a nice excuse to get some. I was thinking that the cottage cheese would add a really nice texture to the cornbread and help keep it nice and moist. Cornbread is a quick bread and thus pretty forgiving with tinkering with the recipe so I took a pretty basic corn bread recipe and added the cottage cheese and removed some of the oil or butter. I also added some corn as I enjoy the sweetness and texture that it provides. The cottage cheese cornbread turned out great! It was nice and moist and light and fluffy. Most of the cottage cheese melted into the cornbread but there were a few pockets that when warm were nice and gooey and stringy and good. The cottage cheese cornbread went really well with the spicy 7 chili chili. I had a lot of leftover cornbread and on a whim I decided to try some for breakfast. I placed it into the microwave for a minute or so to warm it up and then I topped it with some meting butter and maple syrup. The breakfast version of the cottage cheese cornbread was amazing! It was like a super light and fluffy pancake that absorbed all of the maple syrup goodness. I will certainly be making this cottage cheese cornbread again for breakfast (or dinner) again!

It is YOUR choice…. not my choice. You can pay for whatever you like. I should not be forced to pay for others choices. It's a concept called "liberty" you should give it a try.

As Alexis de Tocqueville once said, self-indulgence accompanied by concern for nothing except personal materialistic welfare is the major menace to America's future.
GOP Sweep Imperils Obamacare
Obviously Christie's victory is a body blow to Obama after Corzine outspent the Republican by 5:1. Corzine's defeat sends a message that the nation is moving sharply against Obama.
The party discipline on which Obama depends to pass a healthcare program that Americans reject by 55 to 42 percent (Rasmussen again) will only work if beleaguered Democratic congressional incumbents can wrap themselves in Obama's cloak and tough out the popular criticism. But the limits of Obama's drawing power are readily apparent in the Republicans' 20-point victory in Virginia and the race in New Jersey. By: Dick Morris and Eileen McGann
Top Dems: No Health Care Bill in 2009
By JONATHAN KARL11/4/09, 1:44 AM EST
Senior Congressional Democrats say reform before end of year is highly unlikely.
Senior Congressional Democrats told ABC News today it is highly unlikely that a health care reform bill will be completed this year, just a week after President Barack Obama declared he was "absolutely confident" he'll be able to sign one by then.
"Getting this done by the by the end of the year is a no-go," a senior Democratic leadership aide told ABC News. Two other key Congressional Democrats also told ABC News the same thing.
Voter attitudes — particularly among independents — could bode ill for Democrats in moderate districts and in swing states like Ohio, Colorado and Nevada, should they remain unchanged when the party seeks to defend its turf next fall. In 2010, most governors, a third of the Senate and all members in the House will be on ballots.
It's also difficult to separate Obama from the outcomes after he devoted a significant chunk of time working to persuade voters to elect Deeds in Virginia and re-elect Corzine in New Jersey.
More than four in 10 voters in Virginia said their view of Obama factored into their choice on Tuesday, and those voters roughly split between expressing support and opposition for the president. People who said they disapprove of Obama's job performance voted overwhelmingly Republican, and those who approve of the president favored Deeds, the Democrat. DEEDS/OBAMA LOST BY 18%
Yep… That tends to happen when the current administration cares more for their Ego than the people who elected them…
Unfortunately, this may not translate into a loss for Obama in 2012. The Democrats lost seats in the House & Senate in 1994 after Clinton was elected but that didnt translate to a loss for Clinton in the 1996 Presidential elections. The Republicans picked up 8 seats in the Senate and 54 seats in the House durring the 1994 elections.

This is totally ridiculous. The Russian prime minister totally told us not to do this ,but you know we can't listen!
Why would we care what Valdimir Putin says about how we should run our country? What goes on in our country is purely a domestic matter and no one should look outside the US to seek the opinions the countries of the rest of this world… ESPECIALLY that of Russia, China, Iran, N. Korea etc. Need I go on?
The White House wants to bar illegal immigrants from buying health plans in a new purchasing exchange, even if they use their own money. Gutierrez and other members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus say that goes too far.
Gutierrez said that Obama "calls them illegal and criminalizes and dehumanizes them."
Democratic Congressman Luis Gutierrez and the Congressional Hispanic Caucus criticize the Democratic President Obama and his administration on illegal's receiving taxpayer dollars in HR-3692 and it is reported in USA TODAY. lucasfoxx-what is it you do not believe?
So far it is not backed up by the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, or Rep. Gutierrez himself. Considering it's not consistent with recent releases and statements by the CHC or Gutierrez, and she is the only source, the only conclusion one could make is that it is another Erica Werner whopper. And you swallowed it whole; hook, line, and sinker.
I find the bill a simple power and money grab by and for the government. They even have regulation in it on vending machines and chain restaurants. They also have worked affirmative action into it. A separate surcharge for high income earners. I am still reading it and still have to keep picking my jaw up off the floor.
Before you support this actually take the time to READ IT, then see if you still support this insanity.

OBAMA: "Part of that strategy is health care. We know that as long as Native Americans die of illnesses like tuberculosis, alcoholism, diabetes, pneumonia and influenza at far higher rates than the rest of the population, then we're going to have to do more to address disparities in health care delivery.
More than half of all Native Americans and Alaska Natives, especially those in remote areas with limited access to care, rely on the Indian Health Service for their most basic needs."
Indian Health Service IS THE WORST HEALTH CARE IN THE USA. "Indians die at far higher rates"
The government didn't provide adequate health care in the past and can't in the future RUN HEALTH CARE. JUST-SAY –NO TO HR-3962
lucasfoxx-No one is misled. The government has 200 years of history of abuse of Native Americans and their health care. It is still the worst health care in the USA even if Obama and the Democrats through a little more money at it because of the recent criticism. Please be honest, the government did not do justice to the Native Americans health care and Obama confirmed it. Just because Obama has included the Indian Tribes in HR 3962 only means the rest of us come down to Indians level of health care not that the Indians come up to our current level. (Unless you think the government has grown a heart.)
WASHINGTON – Thousands of conservatives rallied at the Capitol on Thursday against the Democrats' health care overhaul plan.
"This bill is the greatest threat to freedom that I have seen," House Republican leader John Boehner of Ohio told the crowd gathered on the lawn near the West Front of the Capitol.
Said Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa: "We're not going to leave this Hill until we kill this bill."
Among the signs in the crowd was one reading, "Vote no to government-run health care." The crowd included a significant number of older Americans.
With no Republican backing, Democrats will need overwhelming support from within their own caucus. An intraparty disagreement over how to prevent federal funds from being used to pay for abortion has not yet been entirely resolved.
House leaders are also still grappling with illegal immigration, and should be able to purchase insurance coverage within new government "exchanges," using their own money. msnbc.com staff and news service reports.
11/5/2009. More than 20 thousand Americans arrived in Washington DC for a rally, called an emergency "House Call."
Those who attended are now tracking down their elected representatives in Congress to put pressure on them to think twice about voting for the more than $1 trillion health care overhaul pushed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and for them to try and explain the pages in the bill HR-3962. They are marching in the halls of the House each carrying a page of the bill looking for their congressman. God Bless America and these loyal Americans.
So your point is someone else should have to pay for yours and your family's medical bills. What makes you think HR-3962 is free medical? It's a $ 1,200,000,000,000.00 medical bill on the heads of every man, women and child for 10 years. There are only 307,212,123 Americans. That's $3,908,795,000.00 each American over 10 years or $390,879,500.00 each American per year. ($1,070,903.00 per day, 44,621.00 per hour, $744.00 per minute) That my fellow Americans is over-reaching. My opposition to HR-3962 is it is un-constitutional. It is a power grab by some who think the constitution is a living document and then finds powers where none was given or intended. This power grab takes away from Americans god given rights. There is nothing preventing the government from fixing the wrongs in our health care; just not an over-reaching government takeover.

I have a question, did anyone in Congress actually read the bill? I'm in the process of reading the entire bill and just the summary. Just wanted to know.
- desolation_anonymous 11/05/2009 3:26pm
Maybe a few, but I doubt it. Just like they read the stimulus package with the few days it was pushed though, right?
- independentopinion 11/05/2009 11:19am
Sorry, correction: …and not just the summary.
- Activist77 11/05/2009 11:53am
hr 3962 def is unpopular here,i believe it's only unpopular to people on the right and extreme conservatives. This is just the beginning, i am hopeful that when debates ensue and such a much more Robust pub opt will emerge

Culture vs. Politics
I heard on EWTN that during times of persecution of our faith that the key to changing it was through the culture not politics....makes a lot of sense. He gave the example of shakespeare who did not run for office or start a political party during the Elizabethan age when Catholics were being killed but instead, he wrote plays. If you think about it, this makes a lot of sense. Who owns the culture now except the unreligious liberals? And their values have been spreading everywhere since they started "owning" it.
YOur thoughts?

i would appreciate help with some of this translation,any corrections to what i have translated and any relevant information I might have overlooked.
if i understand this, the court is updated to her death:
the date of this record is: 1 August 1905 and a letter was presented to the court on 19 July 1905, number 2543, to transcribe a copy of the death certificate.
it appears she died in the city of Marsiglia. is this Marseilles?
actual date of death is 27 December 1903?
at the hour of 9 in Marsiglia
at the hour of 3 at her home at Via Casseria 30 ...?????.

Hi all.
I was trying to display multiple background images. Specifically, I would like to add one image on top of the other.
So, I did the following:
In my .css file I declared these backgroung images like this:
In my JavaScript file I wrote the following:Code:#myContainer { border: 1px solid #ccc; /*background-image: url(../images/BackgroundImage.png), url(../images/RedBall.png);*/ background-image : ,; /* Just leave them empty, they will be created later dynamically */ background-position: 0 0, /* Set initial positions on the screen */ 30px 100px; background-repeat: no-repeat, no-repeat; height: 200px; width: 240px; }
Finally, I invoke the Javascript function from the .html by:Code:function displayImages() { var target = document.getElementById("myContainer"); target.innerHTML = ""; //Specify colour target.style.backgroundColor="#f3f3f3"; target.style.backgroundImage = 'url("' + "s40-theme/images/Image1.png" + '")' +"," + 'url("' + "s40-theme/images/Image2.png" + '")'; //Declare new positions of the backgroung images target.style.backgroundPosition="0px 0px" + "," + "150px 70px"; //Just display the strings in console console.log("target.style.backgroundImage="+ target.style.backgroundImage); console.log("target.style.backgroundPosition="+ target.style.backgroundPosition); }
//Create a basic Nokia Asha Project
When I run these, image2 is first displayed at the specfic position on the screen and then image1 covered it. So, only image1 is shown at the end;image2 is hidden underneath image1.Code:

 ....... ........ ......

I also used the "backgound" instead of "background-image" property in .css and JavaScript. The behaviour is exactly the same.
Any ideas?
