I use thickbox to load an html. This html has a form that i need to add some stuff to the database. I have a select box in the main html (the one that i load thickbox from). What i want to do is when i press the close button in thickbox, the select box has to be updated with the stuff i just added in the database. I was thinking to modify the thickbox close method and to call my method that updates the select box but thickbox crashes when i do that. Any hint would be greatly appreciated.
you can also 'hijack' the whole tb_remove function. this means that you will not only capture the link click but also the ESC key press..
this involves renaming the original remove method inline and substituting it with your own.
Note: make sure you do this before thickbox is first called for maximum success.
If you inspect the thickbox in action using Firebug, you can see that the thickbox modal is actually a div inside the main page. You can just call any function in the main page from the thickbox.
For example, this code will 'hijack' the thickbox close link and do extra stuffs:
Beside hijack the thickbox close link, you can also put the code into any link inside the thickbox. Just make sure you call
About updating the select box, see my answer here about how to do make it run in every browser.
To make sure that your function always called, you can set the thickbox to use

mondo vs monkey
okay, I give. how do you tell the difference between mondo grass and monkey grass? the pictures on the web are not helping that much.
the stuff in question is in just about full shade. never seen it flower, but then I might just have missed it. it's a little finer and a little darker and floppier than the "monkey grass" in my full sun front bed, but it's about the same size per plant, more or less. it's also massing and spreading much faster.
Mondo grass (Ophiopogon) has a much thinner blade, and it is flat. Monkey grass (Liriope) has a fatter blade, it has some thickness to it, almost succulent compared to mondo grass. Go to Home Depot and compare them side by side. Also, I think that Monkey grass is the one that spreads faster and more aggressively.
Here is a link that might be useful:
thanks, esh:)
actually i googled until i got good info. then i went in the back yard and picked some (first clue: deep shade), and took them to the front yard and compared them to the ones I KNOW are monkey grass. turns out I have mondo in the back.
mondo is also softer and floppier. the thing that had me confused was the mondo's new spring growth, which is standing up vertical and bright green at the moment as opposed to its usual Cousin It kind of look.
learn something every day!
Lirope tends to spread as a clump that gets larger and larger. Mondo grass send out a lot more shoots that will spread like a ground cover. Lirope will stay in a row like edging. They are both referred to as monkey grass frequently so use the proper names to get the best info. Lirope will send out some shoots, too, but not nearly as much as Mondo grass. I think both will grow in sun and shade. Lirope has flowers and berries that look quite nice if it gets sun. I am not sure about Mondo but I think it does, too.

choosing between double and single wall oven
I keep waffling back and forth. With this remodel, I am switching from a regular stove to a wall oven/cooktop. (back issues!)
Design wise, I'd like a single wall oven - more storage underneath, completely ideal height for oven.
Usage. With the exception of one, oft-repeat meal, I am perfectly happy using my current arrangement of one oven with the bonus use of the Breville toaster oven.
But that one meal... we make homemade pizza nearly every saturday night. 4 pizzas at a minimum for just us - half of the time we have company and it'll be more like 6-10 pizzas. Having 2 ovens would certainly aid in kicking out pizzas faster. Now that our family movie night moved to the basement, I definitely don't to be going back and forth to babysit the pizzas.
So.... are there any single ovens that would do a good job with 3 pizzas at a time? Do I really need to get a double oven just for that one meal? (Seriously though, I've done huge holiday meals for many people with just the Breville and the 1 oven.)
I think I know what the answer is -- but I haven't accepted it yet because the idea of more storage is so alluring.
Have you looked atthe GE double/single oven? GE products are kida dumped on around here, but their cooking products have always gotten consistently good reviews from many sources.
Here is a link that might be useful: Double in the space of a single.
I just looked at the GE single/double... interesting thought - will have to play around with it in my head, go see it in person.
lcskaisgir - I don't know - my current stove (whirlpool) has been a "fun" disappointment - it just isn't reliable with temps and can barely handle 2 pizzas in a timely manner. I set the temp at 475 -- the pizzas should be done in 10 min or less (thin crusts)... instead it's more like 15-17 min... and uneven... and once again, babysitting.... So it's hard for me to know how a good oven will be. I've only been able to use convection in the toaster oven, so I don't really know how well it enables food to "share" the heat.
any experienced pizza bakers out there? how many pizzas can you stuff in your well-working oven and have them come out evenly done?
Honestly DOUBLE OVEN!!! Back issues, let me tell you. Properly installed, the top oven is SUPER easy for normal baking: pizzas, cookies, french fries, etc. But that bottom oven?? It's a comfortable height for those HEAVY items. The turkey, the roasts...you don't have to lift the heavy roaster UP, but you also don't have to bend down the way you would for a stove-oven. For me anyway, the bottom oven rack is at carry-height. So I just carry the roaster to it, and place it in, not bending or lifting. Love it. And then the top is all the regular baking. And those days you need 10 pizzas, EASY! Or if you're making items that have two different temperatures and two different cooking times. I'd never part with my double oven! Even FOR more storage (and I still have a 3' tall top cabinet that holds TONS and a small drawer below for pans, so no real loss of storage imo).

and? whats the point for infi AUgm?
another 4 drop and i buy it
i hope you ll never see those prices agianin this bull market
analysts saying storng buy at 90 lol
read it on a german website.
glty! fingers crossed :-)
ur welcome :-) honestly, it was recommended once in dec if i remember correctly since then it almost halfed. 18c now, if we go to 5 or 7 again which is all time low then i buy massively. i think DD on any pinks is pretty useless. its gambling money not invsting thats what most dont get. i feel confident that we see another pump one day because the story is super. but if all my pinks go BK i wont be surprised either LOL. FITX i missed below 1 hope we drop again. TRTC was also 6 ish once. then i just wait for 1 or 2 years and hope no Rev split etc is crossing my strategy :-9 glty
SRNA target 5 to 7 c, TRTC 6 ish and FITX 0.0075
i thought it was paying monthly. havent checked my acct in ages but in the past i got monthly payments
nothing to understand with pink stocks.they go up on nothing and fall on dilution. thats all LOL. wake up this is not an apple stock or so. sell after the pump. now wait
thats what we need bailers :-) still too many believers on board for the next pump. dude this is a pure pump n dump stock. u buy ath these levels and just wait for the next pump
i hope ... still to see 0.0025 :-)
dont bother me with it in google
giving myself 2 years time for a pump here
they actually produce sthg useful
but they are not into the internet of things. they just recently switched and hope to jump on the next big thing. they need years to keep up with real pioniers in this field.. they ve beein in operation for 20 plus years and havent done anything in any area but now try the next hot thing
oh boy oil will be over 100 again and ppl will start talking about 200 again. same ol same ol. remember amazon at 10 bucks ppl talking about bankruptcy now 300 ppl taling about 600. just nonsense made up of stupid bankers. just start buying and wait for some years, keep buying and u ll be happy u did. i bought nestle during all 2008 and 9 and i dont care if i paid 20 30 o 40
be aware this was a citatation from the company itself. not my words.. first i thought this company was a market leader to me in the Internet of things but it seems they just switched bis models recently to a new flashy "keyword" that sell. never a good sign to me! dont know why mike is involved still in this. if i had this reputation i would not let my name get dirty with such techniques. he obviously doesnt need the $$.
the old stuff didnt work out so then we jump over to a new thing that sounds flashy the "i net of things"... "In August 2014, Echelon announced it was getting out of the smart-grid business entirely, shifting its entire corporate focus to the "Internet of Things" as a market for its technology. Echelon committed to only support existing customers, but not grow the grid business, and to potentially seek the sale of its grid business"
amazing right LOL insiders sold out en masse between 350 and 400. check the records! this stock is worth 100 max

My computer beat me at chess... but I beat it at kickboxing.
Actually I was referring to the order to implement bureaucracy article from a few days ago, but this is a good point as well. I was watching that launch live when they shut it down at the last moment. I wonder how much an abort like that costs SpaceX and NASA?
What I want to know is how they will be defending against trebuchets.
The door wings both ways though. Sometimes six-months-ago-me is a pretty cool guy.
Like that time I was searching for an answer to a problem on Stack Overflow. At first I thought "Ha, what a coincidence, the top rated answerer has the same name as me." It was not a coincidence... it was me.
No wonder ULA's buddies in the Air Force have been trying to sabotage SpaceX.

Every day it seems more like a documentary. At least this time it wasn't Americans being the complete idiots.
I hate it when I have to debug some other asshole's code.
I hate it more when the asshole is six-months-ago-me.
Exactly. Where you you think these Colonels and Generals will be getting cushy jobs at when they retire. SpaceX? Not bloody likely.
I thought "18F" was the string that precedes "/New York".

Racism and sexism do offend me. Even when it is against white males, or when it is women degrading women or minorities degrading minorities.

Because American voters can't see past the end of their noses. If congress enacted laws that increased prices on their Wallmart goods, they would be voted out so fast. Coupled with this the fact that the lobbies of corporations want to keep the status quo that keeps them rich.
Sure, they shoot them down without any attempt to contact the aircraft.

Legion baseball: Facing top teams gives Alexandria a good workout
The Fat Daddy's Alexandria American Legion Post 87 baseball team wrapped up its regular season by going 1-2 against some of the top teams in the state at the Princeton Tournament this past weekend.
Alexandria faced last year's Legion World Series champion in Eden Prairie and the 2011 runner-up in Lino Lakes. Post 87 held leads in both those games but fell 8-5 to Eden Prairie and 5-4 to Lino Lakes after beating Princeton 15-0 in between.

Geranium 'Splish-Splash'
Hi! I posted this question several days ago on the perennial forum, but I only got one response. I totally forgot there was a Geranium Forum, or I would have posted here first. Maybe you guys can help me. Early this spring a bought a splish-splash geranium; I planted it in dappled shade behind my apple tree. It took off great and is allready very large. It bloomed a couple of days ago...im a bit dissapointed, there are not very may blue streaks in it. Is it normal for this cultivar? It doesnt look at all like the pictures of it in the catalogs. Is there anything I can possibly do to get the 'splash' back in it? Would moving it to a diffrent location help at all? Thanks in advance!
Even though I collect Geraniums and have almost 100 different, 'Splish-Splash' is not good enough for my garden. It is loose in its growing, the flowers seldom lives up to the expectations, and I find it generely not garden-worthig. Because its a pratense it is also prone to get what we is called meldugg (don't remember the English word).
There are so many beautiful cranesbills so find another to have in your garden, is my advice.
I agree with ann, my splish splash was slop splatt actually, dull as ditch water. You could try moving it to sunnier climbs and see if the color improves but, I have not seen ONE in bloom that looks like the pictures. Too bad really, because it seems to be a very eager grower, yes, perhaps a little leggy, ... meldugg, hmmm, please advise the meaning for this wonderful word, Ann.
Thanks. Kat
Well I really love mine and am very happy with it other than the fact that only one of the three I planted last year survived. Mine is in full sun. When it first bloomed it was pretty white but as the flowers have aged they have gotten the blue splashes in them. They are planted in front of my Hollywood which looks a little washed out from the bright sun. I love perennial geraniums.

Propagating Lavendar
Can you propagate lavendar by placing in water to root itself? I have some lovely plants that I would like to use to mulitply my supply.
Striking a cutting in water is not a good horticultural practice (you'll rarely find it in any textbooks), although it can be done. It's especially not good for woody cutting, such as lavender.
You're best to propagate cutting in some sort of soil - I use ordinary potting mix, but you can get special propagating mixes. The reason soil is better is because soil is the plant's natural environment, and also such roots as are formed are specialised for taking in water, not other nutrients which are found in soil. Woody cuttings especially have a tendency to rot in water, too.
I never recommend people strike cuttings in water. You almost always end up with a less-than-perfect plant, because it has to go to so much trouble once planted to produce all the roots it needs. If you absolutely insist on doing it this way, you take the risk of encouraging diseases such as fungi. You must make sure to change the water every day.
For woody cuttings like lavender you're best to take a heel cutting. See link below. It's very simple. Just dip the cut end into some pure honey (or rooting hormone if you feel extravagant!), dibble a hole in the soil with a pencil or similar, then put in the cutting, and gently tamp the soil around it. Give it a light watering, and off it'll go.
It can take several weeks for the cuttings to strike, but they'll be good, healthy ones. Keep the cuttings warm, don't overwater, and don't feed them. I like to remove most of the leaves - I cut parallel to the stem, removing about half of each leaf, and I chop off its head!
Here is a link that might be useful: taking a heel cutting
Thank you so much Daisy! I didn't realize that. All these years I have been 'rooting' plants in water too.
We moved two provinces last August to 15 acres. I inherited a large perennial flower bed as well as a garden about an acre! There is also an atrium on the front of the house so I inherited plants as well.
With all this room I decided over winter to pursue my passion of herbs, which would explain all of my sudden postings! I have to pop over to the flower section as well as I have all these beautiful flowers out there and I am not sure what they all are, or how to care for them.
I appreciate your tip and will check out that link. I'll let you know how I make out!
Very good article!!!.
I will try the honey thing. I have planted 2 lavender plants(kew red varieties) with the intention of striking and making a hedge. One of the plants died and I have been unsuccessfully been trying to strike cuttings from the healthy plant for weeks. Even with the hormone powder.
The strange thing is one of my lavenders was dying branch by branch. It is growing in the same position as the other, in soil treated at the same time and watered together. All in all the full plant died before my cuttings died.
If there is any reasons why you think the lavender died I would like to hear them. I couldn't find pests, fungus or anything else......unless my housemate poured a mop bucket over it...... Infact that is the most likely thing to happen.

He was only a fighter in the ring
"Assault In The Ring" (originally called "Cornered: A Life in the Ring") is a film about a boxing match that took place between undefeated prospect Billy Collins Jr and Luis Resto. What began as a match turned into a life altering moment for both participants - Collins' career dreams ended and Resto and his trainer Panama Lewis landed in prison for their illegal actions. The subsequent investigation and trial have led many to declare this bout the darkest day in boxing history. But the film-maker doesn't stop there. He tracked down the surviving principals and arranged meetings among some of them, trying to see if the documentary can be an occasion for reconciliation or justice.

The White Album demos
"The relaxing weeks in India yielded a bumper crop of new compositions.

Most, though not all, ended up on the Beatles' next LP, the double-set commonly called the 'White Album' but actually titled, simply, The Beatles. In probable order of recording, these were those 23 demos." [excerpt from Mark Lewisohn's The Complete Beatles Chronicle] [more inside]

I have been looking a cute skirt and i didn't until i found this. It's super cute and i really like it .
I got this skirt for work. I work in an office environment and even though this dress is not as professional as my usual outfits, you add a blazer to it and some nude heels and it adds a flare to your business attire! I love how this dress actually fluffs out and its just SOOOO CUTE! Makes you feel like a princess in it. Glad I splurged and bought it.

Farm bill
On February 4, 2014, the Democratic controlled Senate approved the Federal Agriculture Reform and Risk Management Act of 2013, H.R. 2642, also known as the Farm Bill.[11] It passed the Senate with a vote of 68-32. The nearly 1,000-page bill reformed and continued various programs of the Department of Agriculture through 2018. The $1 trillion bill expanded crop insurance for farmers by $7 billion over the next decade and created new subsidies for rice and peanut growers that will kick in if or when prices drop; however, cuts to the food stamp program cut an average of $90 per month for 1.7 million people in 15 states.[12] Hirono joined with 46 other Democratic senators in favor of the bill.
2014 Budget
On January 16, 2014, the Democratic-controlled Senate approved H.R. 3547, a $1.1 trillion spending bill to fund the government through September 30, 2014.[13][14] The Senate voted 72-26 for the 1,582 page bill, with 17 Republicans and 55 Democrats voting in favor of the bill.[14] The omnibus package included 12 annual spending bills to fund federal operations.[15] It included a 1 percent increase in the paychecks of federal workers and military personnel, a $1 billion increase in Head Start funding for early childhood education, reduced funding to the Internal Revenue Service and the Environmental Protection Agency and left the Affordable Care Act without any drastic cuts. Hirono voted with the Democratic Party in favor of the bill.[13][14]
Government shutdown
- See also: United States budget debate, 2013
During the shutdown in October 2013, the Senate rejected, down party lines, every House-originated bill that stripped the budget of funding for the Affordable Care Act. A deal was reached late on October 16, 2013, just hours before the debt ceiling deadline. The bill to reopen the government, H.R. 2775, lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funded the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.[16] The final vote on H.R. 2775 was 81-18, with all 18 votes against the bill from Republican members. Hirono voted with the Democratic Party for the bill.[17]
No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013
Hirono voted for H.R.325 -- No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013. The bill passed the Senate on January 31, 2013, with a vote of 64 - 34. The purpose of the bill was to temporarily suspend the debt ceiling and withhold the pay of members of Congress until a budget could be passed. The vote largely followed party lines with Democrats overwhelmingly supporting it and many Republicans in opposition to the bill.[10]
Mexico-U.S. border
Hirono voted against Senate Amendment 1197 -- Requires the Completion of the Fence Along the United States-Mexico Border. The amendment was rejected by the Senate on June 18, 2013, with a vote of 39 - 54. The purpose of the amendment was to require the completion of 350 miles of fence described in the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 before registered provisional immigrant status may be granted. It would also require 700 miles of fence be completed before the status of registered provisional immigrants may be changed to permanent resident status. The vote followed party lines.[10]
Social issues
Violence Against Women (2013)
Hirono voted for S.47 -- Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013. The bill was passed by the Senate on February 12, 2013, with a vote of 78 - 22. The purpose of the bill was to combat violence against women, from domestic violence to international trafficking in persons. All 22 dissenting votes were cast by Republicans.[10]
Previous congressional sessions
Fiscal Cliff
Hirono voted for the fiscal cliff compromise bill, which made permanent most of the Bush tax cuts originally passed in 2001 and 2003 while also raising tax rates on the highest income levels. She was 1 of 172 Democrats that voted in favor of the bill. The bill was passed in the House by a 257 - 167 vote on January 1, 2013.[18]

In a rare cross-party endorsement, Hirono received the endorsement of Alaskan Republican Representative Don Young on July 24, 2012, for her primary battle.[22] The two created a 90 second video that discussed bipartisanship and Young endorsed Hirono for U.S. Senate.[22]
Republican candidate Linda Lingle responded to the surprise endorsement, critcizing Young as "controversial" and alluding to his past ethics issues.[23]
Hirono also received an endorsement from Lingle's opponent in the Republican primary, John Carroll.[24] In his endorsement he stated "So, my decision on whom to support is based on my perception of the candidate's character and sincerity to help Hawaii. Of the two [Lingle and Hirono], I believe Mazie is predictable on issues and is of good and honest character, similar to Senator Daniel Akaka."[24]
Young came back to endorse Lingle in the general election.[25]
On November 2, 2010, Mazie K. Hirono won re-election to the United States House. She defeated John W. Willoughby (R), Pat Brock (L) and Andrew Vsevolod Von Sonn (nonpartisan) in the general election.[26]

It consists of two different metrics:
PGI: Change in net worth
Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Hirono's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $1,448,047 and $3,658,999. That averages to $2,553,523, which is lower than the average net worth of Democratic senators in 2012 of $13,566,333. Hirono ranked as the 52nd most wealthy senator in 2012.[31] Between 2006 and 2012, Hirono's calculated net worth[32] increased by an average of 1 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[33]

PGI: Donation Concentration Metric
Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org, Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). Hirono received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Lawyers/Law Firms industry.
From 2005-2014, 24.93 percent of Hirono's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[36]
