Hi All,
I have incorporated the code found in this post: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-popular-posts-filter-by-custom-post-types but it doesn't seem to work for me. I don't believe the plugin is counting the views for the custom post types.
I logged out and viewed several pages but still no views on any of the custom post types. Any ideas what I could have done wrong?

Fit Quality Installation Recommend Gorilla alarm for my 2002 CBR600F4i Great unit, super easy installation, I like it!! Bill - December 20, 2013 (Cold Lake, AB) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Endangered Species MC Recommended This alarm is great!! Does what its suppose to do. Literally minutes after installing it, it went off. My display showed motion. Living in NYC I made the alarm sensitive. Someone attempted to cut my mesh on my cruiser to steal my helmet and the alarm went off!! Yeah he got caught and got arrested. Thanks Motorcycle Superstore for having such a great product!!!!! Daniel - August 08, 2013 (yonkers, NY) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Quick and easy to install---Works as advertised!! This was quick and easy to install and works as advertised. Range is somewhat short but acceptable. Some delivery schedule problems but a couple of calls to Motorcycle Superstore and all was ironed out and expedited. Thanks Motorcycle Superstore!! Allan L. - June 19, 2013 (Lethbridge , AB) Fit Quality Installation Recommend gorilla 8017 alarm is above and beyond Got it in 3 days, easy to installed 15 min. The 2way paging is great, and loud! Motorcycle superstore you are the bestest. noonie - July 24, 2012 (richmond, VA) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Gorilla Cycle Alarm/w pager Looked at several different alarm systems and decided on Gorilla. I liked the fact that it was a simple installation lasting about 45 min. Hardest part was location and then running the wires and tying them up nice and neat. Like the 2 key fobs with this system. One is an arm/disarm only fob and the other fob is a 2 way pager system. I use them both depending on where I am going and security there. I love this system. Dean C. - June 05, 2012 (Hudson, OH) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Best Motorcycle Alarm for the Money At this price nearly every MC should have it installed. It wouldn't fit inside my 2007 Ducati Monster as it is shaped a bit "boxy" and there simply is no room to hide it on that bike (so I bought a Scorpio for that one which is more flat/wide). Installed on my 2006 ZX10R instead - plenty of room inside the fairings. The installation is very simple and non-intrusive. And Holy Smokes it's LOUD!!! Plenty of programming options for its behavior when tripped and siren types. Definitely recommended. Sean T. - October 03, 2011 (Redwood City, CA) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Rob This Gorilla alarm was easy to install only took about 45 min, the 2 way paging system works great. the only complaint that I have is that the alarm itself could be a little louder but other than that its a great system highly recommend. Rob - June 22, 2010 (Tyler, TX) Fit Quality Installation Recommend alarm I purchased the Gorilla 2 way paging and I love it. My brother installed and it took him just a few hours. Not bad for the price. Put on my Honda Shadow ace 750. My friends thinks it one the coolest gadgets around. It says on box 1/2 mile range, but that's not accurate, it's more like 1/4 mile or so, depending where you are. Huy - May 17, 2010 (morro bay, CA) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Nice alarm I have a 2006 CBR1000RR and best place I could fit it was under the passenger seat. Everything works excellent so far. I really like how loud it is. My only complaint is that they stopped sending the actual key chain attachment with the remote. No way to make one fit either. How the heck am I going to put it with my keys. I'll have to carry it totally separate. I went on the website to see why and it says because people kept damaging the remotes since it was on a key chain. Seems like a good way to lose the dang thing. Whatever, it's still worth it. Jeff - April 15, 2010 (waxahachie, TX) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Gorilla - Cycle Alarm Excellant Buy I purchased this alarm system for a Maxi Scooter last year because I had no garage to keep it. Well needless to say this alarm system warns away any would be thief's while keeping me alert also. Very loud and programmable alarm alert so you choose the sound it makes. I'm going to purchase one for my CBR1000 soon Nelson - March 15, 2010 (West Orange, NJ) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Fantastic alarm... WOW I have a new K1300S and purchased this alarm based on the positive reviews. It is EXCELLENT. To fit the unit I had spent time searching for a prime spot and found it on the left side behind the front faring. Using the Velcro sheets and a tie straps I put the unit, the pager and the tilt sensor all together. Basically one compact unit with all the components. The wires run unseen behind the fairing up to the battery. Easy! I even installed the LED by drilling a small hole into the Battery cover piece, so that the LED sits highly visible on top of the machine in clear view. 4 inches in front of the Gas Cap! Again, a breeze. Highly recommend the system. Worked perfectly first time... and loud as all hell! Tilt sensor is excellent! BUY THIS ALARM! Mike Collins - August 18, 2009 (Debary, FL) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Easy Installation This did not take long to install, few tools were needed and the wiring was simple. It is very loud and easy to program the settings. Mine is installed on an 08 Ninja ZX6R and I had no problem hiding all the parts and wires. Derrick - June 15, 2009 (Lexington, KY) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Great Alarm/ Pager not so good The alarm was easy to install and set up but the pager is useless more than a 100 ft away. James - April 27, 2009 (Mesa, AZ) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Gorilla two way paging cycle alarm I love this alarm. It makes me feel a lot better about leaving my bike alone. It was pretty easy to install myself once I figured everything out. Jessica - February 27, 2009 (littleton, CO) Fit Quality Installation Recommend Excellent The system was very easy to put together; it was all plug and play. It took about 20 minutes to wire up the system. steven nguyen - February 26, 2009 (Stafford, TX) Related Links All Gorilla Security All Gorilla Cruiser Motorcycle Accessories View All Motorcycle Security

I care about the NBA Finals. But I don't think anyone else does.
Mavs up 1-0. They look just too athletic for the Heat. Shaq is running on fumes. Wade gets too banged up.
The Heat will win a couple games in Miami where the refs give them every call. But I don't see them winning it. Too bad, I like Shaq.
Dirk is tempting fate by getting a haircut after his killer 50 points in the last Mavs/Suns game.

The University of Texas School of Law has launched a new legal clinic, the National Security and Human Rights Clinic to undertake legal cases and projects that address some of the deeper legal problems that arise as a result of the "war on terror."
The National Security and Human Rights Clinic is one of very few law school clinics to undertake direct representation of Guantanamo Bay detainees. Clinic students, under the supervision of Professors Derek Jinks and Kristine Huskey, will serve as advocates for detainees at the Guantanamo Bay facility.
Led by Jinks, clinic participants spent the summer working on a brief in the consolidated cases Al Odah v. U.S. and Boumediene v. Bush, which challenge the legality of the Military Commissions Act. The brief was submitted to the United States Supreme Court on August 24, 2007, and oral arguments will be heard this fall.
Huskey, director of the National Security and Human Rights Clinic and a clinical professor at the School of Law, will supervise students representing Guantanamo Bay detainees and working on other cases and projects related to national security.
"I want the students and professors involved in the clinic to be advocates but also, when necessary, to serve as objective experts in an area where there is a perceived tension between national security and human rights," Huskey said. "The clinic's work will be cognizant of the reality of terrorism and this country"s great history of liberty and freedom and the rule of law, while striving to contribute something of value in the legal arena to the ongoing debate."
Jinks is a renowned international law scholar. Before joining the School of Law faculty in 2005, he worked in the prosecutor's office of the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia, and served as senior legal advisor and United Nations representative for the South Asia Human Rights Documentation Centre in India. Since 2006, he has been a member of the U.S. Secretary of State's Advisory Committee on International Law.
Huskey recently joined the School of Law from American University's Washington College of Law in Washington, D.C., where she was practitioner-in-residence in the International Human Rights Law Clinic. Before that, she was an attorney in the international litigation and arbitration practice group at Shearman & Sterling LLP, representing primarily international entities. Huskey represented Guantanamo detainees in Rasul v. Bush, which went before the U.S. Supreme Court and won the right of the detainees to challenge their detentions in federal court.
Others involved in the new National Security and Human Rights Clinic include Scott Sullivan, an assistant professor in the School of Law's Emerging Scholars Program; Elizabeth Hardy, a clinical instructor; Professor Emeritus Jack Ratliff; and Austin private practice attorney Bill Scanlan.
Huskey said the goals of the National Security and Human Rights Clinic are to teach students how to be principled practitioners in the realm of national security and human rights, and to impart lessons about contributing to the legal community and to society.
"Through the Clinic, the School of Law and its students will be involved in real-life litigation that is setting precedents in constitutional law, human rights law and humanitarian law," Huskey said. "These cases are now part of our history and will be discussed for decades to come."

- Stimulus-Responsive Thin-Film Photonic Crystals from Rapid Self-Assembly of Block Copolymers for Photopatterning
Yeo-Wan Chiang, Jhih-Jyun Chang, Chung-Yi Chou, Cheng-Sian Wu, En-Li Lin and Edwin L. Thomas
Article first published online: 3 JUL 2015 | DOI: 10.1002/adom.201500177
Rapid self-assembly (≈15 min) of parallel-aligned lamella-forming block-copolymer photonic-crystal thin films is carried out through the manipulation of solvent evaporation. A well-defined photopatterned thin-film photonic crystal can exhibit either a lower redshift reflectivity or unresponsiveness toward the external stimulus by control of its exposure time to UV irradiation.
- Anomalous Terahertz Reflection and Scattering by Flexible and Conformal Coding Metamaterials
Lanju Liang, Meiqing Qi, Jing Yang, Xiaopeng Shen, Jiquan Zhai, Weizong Xu, Biaobing Jin, Weiwei Liu, Yijun Feng, Caihong Zhang, Hai Lu, Hou-Tong Chen, Lin Kang, Weiwei Xu, Jian Chen, Tie Jun Cui, Peiheng Wu and Shenggang Liu
Article first published online: 30 JUN 2015 | DOI: 10.1002/adom.201500206
The manipulation of terahertz (THz) waves is implemented by 1-bit THz coding metamaterials. The reflection and scattering wave can be controlled by varying the coding sequence. Using this methodology, a wideband and polarization-independent THz thin-film metamaterial with extremely low specular reflection and scattering waves is demonstrated successfully. This metamaterial is also flexible and conformal to the curved surface, which offers widespread applications.
- The Tunable White-Light and Multicolor Emission in An Electrodeposited Thin Film of Mixed Lanthanide Coordination Polymers
Huiping Liu, Tianshu Chu, Zilong Rao, Shuoyu Wang, Yangyi Yang and Wing-Tak Wong
Article first published online: 30 JUN 2015 | DOI: 10.1002/adom.201500203
A white-light-emitting lanthanide coordination polymer thin film is fabricated for the first time by electrodeposition based on a novel hexanuclear lanthanide cluster, in which, Tb3+ generates green emission and enhances the Eu3+-centered red emission through energy transfer process; the ligand generates blue emission. Notably, white-light emission with CIE coordinates of (0.33, 0.34) is obtained by balancing Tb3+/Eu3+ ratio and excitation wavelength.
- Gate Tuning of High-Performance InSe-Based Photodetectors Using Graphene Electrodes
Wengang Luo, Yufei Cao, Pingan Hu, Kaiming Cai, Qi Feng, Faguang Yan, Tengfei Yan, Xinhui Zhang and Kaiyou Wang
Article first published online: 29 JUN 2015 | DOI: 10.1002/adom.201500190
By using graphene as the transparent electrodes to modify the difference of the work function between the electrodes and the InSe, the response time of an InSe-based photodetector can be down to 120 μs. It can also be tuned by the back-gate voltage from 310 μs down to 100 μs. Simultaneously, the photoresponsivity can reach as high as 60 A W−1.
- Anisotropic Light Transport in White Beetle Scales
Lorenzo Cortese, Lorenzo Pattelli, Francesco Utel, Silvia Vignolini, Matteo Burresi and Diederik S. Wiersma
Article first published online: 24 JUN 2015 | DOI: 10.1002/adom.201500173
The extremely brilliant whiteness shown by the Cyphochilus beetle is generated by multiple scattering of light inside the ultrathin scales that cover its body, whose interior is characterized by an anisotropic nanostructured network of chitin filaments. It is demonstrated that the structural anisotropy of the network is crucial in order to achieve high broadband reflectance from such a thin, low-refractive-index system.

I picked up some code from a comment Joshua made on someone else's website - he actually corrected someone post lol.
Anyways, being a lazy sod I decided to look in on his plugin, rather than open Filezilla.
And behold it worked.
The plugin separates style jscript & continues to run it in head. But other scripts are moved to footer. And this means plugins still work. Happy days.
Cheers Joshua. Really appreciate you doing this work.

The Blue Jays may be interested in Johnny Damon
Jan 19, 2011, 9:02 AM EDT
Sometimes I get nostalgic for the winter of 2009-10. It was a simpler time. Bert Blyleven wasn't a Hall of Famer, people thought that the Mariners won the Milton Bradley-Carlos Silva trade and every other post on HardballTalk was about Johnny Damon. Let's relive that for a moment, shall we?
The Blue Jays avoided salary arbitration with outfielder Rajai Davis on Tuesday, signing him to a two-year, $5.75 million contract. However, the team continues to explore other leadoff options, including free agents Scott Podsednik and Johnny Damon, major league sources say.
Damon is a lefty, which would help the Jays. Rosenthal notes that he's not a base-stealing threat any longer, but that may not be too big a deal for Toronto given that their offense is built on hitting approximately eleventy-billion home runs. Damon can still get on base at a passable clip, so he may fit nicely.
There's no sense that anything is imminent here and Rosenthal mentions that the Angels may still be interested in both Damon and Podsednik too, and this morning he tweeted about maybe the Yankees taking a look at him. Still, it's fun talking about Damon again. I hope a frenzy is created. I have about two dozen posts about him in the can that I'm sure I could repurpose if I had to.
- proudlycanadian - Jan 19, 2011 at 9:27 AM
This story has more credibility than the story that the Jays were interested in Manny as Damon is more versatile than Manny. On the other hand, I think that Rosenthal also reported that the Jays were more interested in Podsednik than Damon. This does not surprise me, because John Farrell would like more speed on the roster. Podsednik would be a better fit for the Toronto roster than Damon. He would give them more options.
- proudlycanadian - Jan 19, 2011 at 10:23 AM
A minor correction. It appears that Rosenthal actually reported that the Angels were more interested in Podsednik than Damon. I still think that if the Jays prefer one of them, it would be Podsednik. Unlike some segments of the US media, Rosenthal is right a lot of the time when he comments about The Jays.
- uyf1950 - Jan 19, 2011 at 9:35 AM
I don't know how much interest the Jays have in Damon but what I can tell everyone is the time for nostalgia and seeing Damon in a Yankee uniform is over. There is about as much chance of seeing Damon in a Yankee uniform in 2011 as there is of finding the "Reggie Bar" at the concession stands in the stadium. Ain't gonna happen.
- yankeesfanlen - Jan 19, 2011 at 10:18 AM
Don't hate on poor ol' Johnny, although he did really screw up his own retention last year. Maybe we wouldn't be oogling someone who can't spell their name conventionally if Damon had told Scott where to go.
- uyf1950 - Jan 19, 2011 at 10:25 AM
I just think Damon's time with the Yankees has come and gone. He had his chance at fame and fortune with the Yankees but he chose to go to the Tigers. Lest we not forget and I quote Damon himself "a place he always want to be". I wish him the best but the Yankees don't need him and apparently it seems like most of the other ML teams don't either.
- BC - Jan 19, 2011 at 11:20 AM
What will be interesting is if he sticks around 3 more years. He'd almost assuredly have 3000 hits at that point. Would be an interesting HOF test case for that milestone. I've never thought of him as an HOF'er, not even really close.
- WhenMattStairsIsKing - Jan 19, 2011 at 12:26 PM
He'd probably have 400+ stolen bases too. Interesting point.
- andrewkw - Jan 19, 2011 at 1:03 PM
Damon would be an upgrade over Davis and Davis can trail him defensively coming in for defense on a daily basis.

are the cows also used for food?

not sure what you mean by write and run, but yes, these are real blogs...
however, i am sometimes a bit slower than i'd like in commenting back. my apologies. i had to take a couple days off to visit my grandmother in upstate NY. but i'm back at it now.
the ranchers are by and large greedy barons, who often impress subsistent peasants into slave labor, some times after stealing their land and murdering anyone who speaks up about it (remember Sister Dorothy?).
and yes the cows are also used for food, i.e. beef. there are several products that are made from cows, beef and leather among them, and it takes the sale of all of the parts of the cow to make it profitable for the ranchers to destroy the Amazon to raise their cows. if we can remove even one source of the revenue they get from their cattle, it will become a lot less economically viable to continue their current practices, and they'll be forced to change how they do business.

Professional counseling and psychotherapy offer methods for addressing personal, family, work, and health-related concerns throughout the course of our lives.
Many psychological and behavioral problems arise during childhood, but may not become evident until adolescence. The teen years are a time of significant change when extra support may be needed to move effectively into adulthood.
The transition from adolescence into adulthood requires examining behavior patterns brought forward from our developing years. Adults are expected to navigate complex environments and nurture the next generation. Each life stage brings its own set of challenges for individuals and families.
Counseling and psychotherapy help to improve insight and perspective, emotion-regulation, and problem-solving skills. Advances in neuroscience have increased our understanding of human behavior and our ability to diagnose problems, improve coping skills, and facilitate a greater sense of well-being.
The following pages will give you more information about the types of services I offer and what may be most beneficial to you.

Les will be joined by New Orleans Social Club featuring members of the Neville Brothers and The Meters including George Porter Jr., Leo Nocentelli, Ivan Neville, Henry Butler, Raymond Weber, and The Coup's Boots Riley and Pam the Funkstress--the funkateers Billboard just dubbed "the best hip-hop act of the past decade." A portion of the event's proceeds will benefit the New Orleans Musicians Hurricane Relief Fund.
The North Bay debut of Les Claypool's New Year's Eve Hatter's Ball

Doors open at 7pm. Show starts @ 8pm and goes till late!
Grace Pavilion
Sonoma County Fairgrounds

Advance: $50, Door: $60, VIP Magic Pass: $100 (limited availability)
Available online at HarmonyFestival.com and InTicketing.com
This is an all ages event
"Expect the usual high grade midnight antics," said Colonel Claypool. "And of course there will be plenty of special treats, surprises and New Year's mayhem for all!"
"We are very excited to offer the North Bay a world class New Year's Eve event to call its own," said Sean Ahearn, program director for the Harmony Festival. "Harmony's 2006 Hatter's Ball with Les Claypool marks the first time that his band will perform locally. We are thrilled that legendary artists like the New Orleans Social Club and The Coup accepted our invitation to join the party, and we invite the local community to help us make the event an annual North Bay New Year's Eve tradition."
In addition to the all-star line up, this year's Hatter's Ball will once again feature the Most Original Hat Contest and a diverse array of mad hatters. Attendees are encouraged to costume accordingly! VIP tickets include green room and side-stage viewing access, preferred parking, and complimentary champagne, beer and hors d'oeuvres. RV and van camping will be allowed for all general ticket holders. To make reservations, email firstname.lastname@example.com.
A party with a purpose
Known for being a party with a purpose, the Harmony Festival will honor the legendary New Orleans Social Club's performance at this year's New Year's Eve Hatter's Ball by raising funds throughout the evening for New Orleans Musicians Hurricane Relief Fund.
Les Claypool
Les Claypool is one of the most unlikely success stories in music history. His trademark voice, thumping bass and unique worldview have become the calling cards for a number of wildly successful and influential albums, books and films. Musical outfits he's been involved with include the seminal alt-rock band Primus, Oysterhead featuring Trey Anastasio (Phish) with Stewart Copeland (The Police), and Colonel Claypool's Bucket of Bernie Brains, just to name a few. Les has been performing his New Year's Eve shows for the last decade in San Francisco, and will be performing his first ever hometown show in the North Bay.
New Orleans Social Club
Six weeks after Hurricane Katrina, a parade of Crescent City legends united to celebrate the indomitable spirit and culture of their native city. Scattered around the country, they gathered in Austin as a loose-knit collective dubbed The New Orleans Social Club. Over the course of seven magical days and nights, they recorded Sing Me Back Home. Grammy nominated producer Leo Sacks and multiple Grammy-winning Ray Bardani assembled a dream team: Ivan Neville on organ, Henry Butler on piano, and two founding members of The Meters - Leo Nocentelli on guitar and George Porter, Jr. on bass. Rounding out the quintet was the wickedly funky Raymond Weber on drums. George assumed the mantle of musical director and the group was called The New Orleans Social Club. Joining the core band were guests including Irma Thomas, Marcia Ball, Dr. John, Willie Tee, Troy "Trombone Shorty" Andrews, John Boutte and more.
The Coup
The Coup is one of the most overtly political bands in rap history. Wicked funk and smooth soul grooves fuel their revolutionary music. Formed in the early '90s, The Coup were influenced by conscious rappers like Public Enemy and KRS-One. Raised in East Oakland's Funktown neighborhood, lead rapper/producer Boots Riley was involved in political activism long before he was a musician. His fervent dedication to social change was the overriding influence on every Coup album. Pam the Funkstress, the first female DJ star in the famously competitive Bay Area turntablist scene, later joined the group. The Coup's uniquely bent grooves point to "Dirty Mind"-era Prince, late-80s Too Short, and the trunk-rattling hyphy sonics of the New Bay movement.
New Orleans Musicians Hurricane Relief Fund
The New Orleans Musicians Hurricane Relief Fund is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization founded by Ben and Sarah Jaffe of Preservation Hall immediately after Hurricane Katrina. The NOMHRF mission is twofold: to provide humanitarian outreach to New Orleans musicians affected by the storm and to revive New Orleans' unique musical culture. NOMHRF brings musicians home with rent subsidies and grants for home repairs, creates and underwrites gigs, supports the second line tradition by helping to offset the cost of bands for parades, and replaces flood-damaged instruments. We empower musicians to earn a living and heal the city with their music. Since the levee failure, more than 1000 New Orleans musicians have received these services from NOMHRF, as well as referrals to health care clinics, social services, and other relief organizations.

Anyone had problems with the Magician not being able to read certain SD cards?
There are already three reports of this on the eXpansys support forum:-

Even if your card works now, I wouldn't be too complacent. There are two more reports today on the Expansys forum of a card being wiped without warning after a soft reset.
As for scale of the problem, it's hard to tell. The 6 reports so far are
all from regular posters on JAM forums - in just a week since release. I
would imagine regular forum users are a small sample of the JAM customer base. We have no idea how many units Expansys have replaced
directly without comment, or how many users have had their SD cards
wiped without reporting it.
Expansys are talking to Imate and HTC about the problem, but it the meantime I suggest you remove your SD card before doing a reset as a precaution!

After consecutive wins over a pair of first-place teams, the Detroit Pistons are beginning to play with some confidence on their home floor. The short-handed Sacramento Kings have also turned it around at home, but they've been woeful on the road as they begin a four-game trip. The Pistons seek their fourth straight victory at The Palace on Tuesday night when they open 2013 against the Kings, one of the NBA's worst teams away from home. Detroit (11-22) has won four of five after beating Southeast Division leader Miami and then-Central leader Milwaukee in back-to-back home games. "We've just got keep taking advantage of these games at home while we have this streak," forward Tayshaun Prince told the league's official website. Seemingly forgotten until recently, forward Charlie Villanueva has played a key role in the past four contests, averaging 15.5 points and shooting 55.8 percent from the field. He averaged 6.8 points in his first 19 games. Center Greg Monroe could also be f...

Robin van Persie claims his partnership with Wayne Rooney is blossoming due to them adopting a brand new position - the 'nine and a half'. The Dutchman says the pair interchange between the more forward position, traditionally the number nine spot, and the creative number 10 position linking with midfield. Van Persie has scored 10 goals for Manchester United since his summer move from Arsenal - helped significant by his forming an immediate understanding with Rooney. Van Persie told the club's official website: "I call it a nine and a half because you have two positions, the nine and the 10, and we are both nine and a half. "We are just helping each other out. We both play behind and a bit higher up. It seems to be working well and I am very happy with Wayne - hopefully we can keep it going." United boss Sir Alex Ferguson said the flexibility to the partnership was key but that the pair had yet to hit the highest level together, even if there were flashes in the 2-1 win over th...

The Journal Sentinel sports staff brings Milwaukee Bucks fans the latest news, notes and analysis
NBA basks in its glory
The National Basketball Association has a dream matchup with the Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics.
The Finals begin Thursday night on ABC.
In advance of the games, the NBA publicity machine has kicked into overdrive. Here's a sampling:
1. The league's television partners, ABC, ESPN and TNT, all had double-digit growth in TV ratings and viewership during both the regular season and the playoffs.
2. NBA.com set a traffic record with more than 900 million visits, an increase of more than 60% compared with last season.
3. During the Finals, the NBA is guaranteed to tie or break the record for most sellouts in the postseason. The league currently has 77 sellouts, four shy of the record mark of 81.
4. Since October 2007, sales at the NBA store in New York and NBAStore.com are up 17% and 29% percent, respectively, compared with last season. Both stores expect to have their best sales year ever.

Original Message
For more than a decade I have been researching the global Satanic conspiracy and I believe it to be true, and that it runs deeper than most people would imagine (entertainment industry, education, etc). I have a popular website about exposing the agenda.
There have been some "coincidences" in my life recently that I believe might not be coincidences at all, but some sort of spiritual or divine intervention to confirm that everything I have researched over the years is indeed true.
In this post I will describe the first "coincidence." I apologize in advance for being vague, but I feel it's necessary.
A few years ago a relative of mine became acquaintances with a popular professional athlete. I was invited to the athlete's mansion for a party.
It was at this party that I met a man who was involved with the music industry. He told me that he used to be part of a very successful record label, working with artists you have all heard of, and that he was still friends and did business with many players in the industry.
After I learned who he was I knew I had to at least try to ask him some questions because it's not every day you meet someone like that who knows what he could possibly know. Since I had a few drinks in me I wasn't nervous and didn't hesitate to just go for it.
I started to explain to him the weird satanic/illuminati/occult events and symbolism happening at the time in the music industry. I figured I would have a better chance of getting information out of him if I acted like it was kind of ridiculous and that I didn't even believe it, so I asked him something along the lines of "So is there anything to all of this Satanic crap? Or is it just conspiracy theorists making stuff up on the Internet?"
He was quiet and seemed uncomfortable from the moment I started talking about all of this. After my question to him he sort of just looked down at his phone and mumbled something about "Man, well you know, conspiracy theorists will (inaudible, inaudible)." I thought, okay that didn't really go anywhere, so I decided to ask him one last time. I laughed and said something like "Yea, but seriously man, is there anything to any of that stuff?"
Instead of addressing my question, this is when he seemed to "wake up" out of nowhere, all of the sudden he was very interested in me, as if I was the only one there (there were about 5 other people in the room). He sat up holding up a fancy diamond necklace towards me that he had been looking at asking me things like "This is nice huh?" "This cost twenty-five thousand." "You like nice things like this?"
The crazy thing is while he was asking me about it he was holding the necklace with two hands so that the necklace was in the shape of a triangle, and from where I was standing I could only see one of his eyes inside the triangle towards the top. So here I am staring at this guy who is giving off totally evil creepy vibes and he's basically looking at me through the eye in the pyramid. Now maybe he was doing this on purpose to mess with me, but at that same time a very strange feeling came over me, almost like I was being hypnotized by him. I could feel that he was projecting the feelings of evil and greed onto me and that all he cared about was money. I can't even really explain in words the way I felt at that moment but I was convinced that there was something wrong with this man, that he was possibly even possessed.
Shortly after this took place it was time for my relative and I to leave. We said bye to everyone and one of our hosts there walked us out the door, and as I walked towards the door I looked at the music industry man as he sat there and he was staring right back at me with an evil look that seemed to pierce right through me until I walked out the door and couldn't see him anymore.
This probably doesn't sound like much to you, and it's hard to describe, especially while being vague, but considering this man's history and the people he has been around I was convinced that I struck a nerve with him when I brought up the Satanic subject and was citing evidence to him. I believe he knew that what I was saying was true and that it was the first of other "coincidences" to come in my life to show me that it's all real.
If anyone even cares about this let me know and I'll post the next coincidence.

Garlic: A potent antibiotic
The Chief Executive Officer, Pax Herbal Medical Research and Laboratory, Ewu- Isan, Edo State, REVD FATHER ANSELM ADODO writes on the potency of garlic as an anti-biotic.
Garlic known as allium sativum belongs to the alliums family, which comprises some 700 species. Garlic is among the earliest known medicinal plants. The Babylonians (c. 3000 BC) are said to make profuse use of garlic. The Jews love garlic, and when they were deprived of it in the wilderness, they grumbled: "The rabble with them began to crave other food, and again the Israelites started wailing and said, "If only we had meat to it! We remember the fish we ate in Egypt at no cost-also cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions and garlic. But now we have lost our appetite: we never see anything but this manna!" (Numbers 11: 4 to 6). Garlic would surely restore their lost appetite.
Garlic was widely consumed in ancient Greek and Rome. Aristotle recommended garlic for those who wish to remain strong and healthy. The Roman soldiers were fond of planting garlic in vegetable pots near their abode, since they believed that eating garlic would improve their fighting spirit. The father of modern medicine, Hippocrates, prescribed raw garlic for bronchitis. The tomb of the Egyptian king, Tutankhamen, was said to contain six bulb of garlic, perhaps to ward off dangers on his way to the other world.
There are many myths and legends about garlic. One Muslim legend said when Satan left the Garden of Eden after the fall, garlic sprang up from century Europe, garlic was believed to ward off vampires and make moles to jump out of the ground. Greek athletes were given garlic to chew before competitions in the Olympic Games to make them run faster or excel. In ancient Greek, those who smelt of garlic were not allowed to enter the temple of Greek gods.
In the middle ages, physicians used a mask smeared with garlic when treating patients with infectious diseases. In Ayurvedic medicine, garlic is called rashona, meaning, "Lacking one taste." This refers to the fact that garlic posses all the other five tastes, namely, purgent (root), bitter (leaf), astringent (stem), saline (stem) and sweet (seed), but "Lacking in one taste," sourness.
In Nigeria, there are some beliefs about the powers of garlic. In eastern Nigeria, the smell of garlic is said to be offensive not only to the human but also to evil spirits. Hence those who wish to ward off evil spirits use it. In some parts of Yoruba land, garlic is used to neutralise harmful charms. Rubbing mashed garlic on one's hand does this. As soon as one touches the charm, it becomes neutralised. An Igbo lady recently shared her experience with me. According to her, she had been experiencing strange disappearance of money in her house. Whenever she kept some money in her wardrobe, she would soon discover that half of the money had disappeared mysteriously, even though she was living alone. This experience had been on for some time. Then one day, as she was praying, she received an inspiration to keep a bulb of peeled garlic in her wardrobe. This she did and ever since there has not been any incidence of disappearance. She said she even recommended it to others and it has worked in all the cases. All these show that indeed, garlic was seen from earliest times to be a mysterious plant.
When garlic is eaten, its odour impregnates all the body secretions: breath, sweat, urine, belches, saliva, and even the milk of breastfeeding mother. The peculiar smell of garlic is due to the presence of diallyl disulphide, an enzyme derived from alliicine, which is a by-product of alliinase. Garlic contains alliin, niacin and vitamin A1, B1, B2. As volatile substances, alliin and diallyl dysulphur easily permeates all body organs and tissues, making it impossible to hide the smell. The body organs, which benefit most from garlic, are the organs of elimination such as the lungs, bronchi, liver, kidneys and the skin.
Method of applying garlic
• Swallow four cloves of garlic three times daily, same way as you swallow tablets or capsules. This is by far the simplest and most convenient way to take garlic. It also solves the problem of the smell. However, note that anything less than the stated 12 cloves daily will give very little therapeutic effect.
• Mash three bulbs of garlic and soak in one bottle of hot water overnight. Drink a glassful three times daily.
• Blend 10 bulbs of garlic with two bottles of honey. Please do not add water. Drink two dessert spoons three times daily.
Medicinal properties of garlic
Anti-biotic: garlic is one of the most effective natural anti-biotics there are. It is scientifically proven that garlic works powerfully against the following bacteria.
• Escherichia coli, which causes intestinal dysbacteriosis and urinary infections.
• Salmonela typhi, which causes typhoid fever.
• Shigella dysenteriae, which causes dysentery.
• Staphloccocus and streptococcus, which cause inflammation to the genital organs, damaged sperm cells, and skin infections and blemishes. Unlike synthetic anti-biotic, garlic has no side effect whatsoever.
Garlic is found to lower noxious cholesterol level in the blood. This makes it indispensable for many Nigerians who consume a lot of fat, palm oil and butter. Over-consumption of palm oil is partly responsible for cases of high cholesterol level in Nigerians today, thereby increasing the risk of heart problems.
Combined with other herbs, garlic has proved useful for lowering blood sugar. Those who are afraid of developing diabetes because of the fact that their parents are diabetics should make friend with garlic, as it is very good prevention against diabetes.
Anti-tumour: garlic strengthens the blood cells that protect the body against micro-organism. If these cells are weak, the body becomes prone to vital infections, such as HIV/ AIDS, tuberculosis (TB), pneumonia and cough. Garlic also destroys cancerous cells in the body. It I no wonder that the people of Central Asia, who are reputed to be great consumers of garlic, live longest and recorded the lowest incidence of cancer. In Nigeria, cases of cancer, especially of the breast, are increasing daily. I wish to suggest that our women should take garlic as much as possible. Garlic will act as a good prevention against cancer as well as help in dissolving cancerous tumours.
Anti-hypertensive: garlic has been a beckon of hope for hypertensive patients all over the world. It not only helps to regulate the blood pressure, but also helps to keep it normal.
Worms: garlic is very good against intestinal worms. Follow method two or three above. Garlic is also good for indigestion, as it promotes catabolism (waste excretion). Follow any of the three recipes above.
For various illnesses such as bronchial infections, diarrhoea, general weakness, tiredness, lack of appetite, arthritis, convulsion and epilepsy, garlic is your best bet. Smokers and alcoholics, the result has been impressive. In the first place, garlic takes care of the ailments often associated with drinking and smoking, namely, hypertension, kidney and liver problems and lungs infections. Garlic helps to overcome the urge to smoke or drink, perhaps because of its peculiar odour. For smokers, I often recommend chewing three cloves of garlic three times daily, while drinkers blend garlic, carrot and honey and water together. The dosage is one glass three times daily.

Great monitor10/3/2012
A bit *too* bright right out of the box. I had to turn it down quite a bit to make it comfortable to look at. No dead pixels or problems. Monitor was in perfect condition. Plenty of input options and even PIP. I was planning to just use this for a secondary workstation, but it seemed like a waste so I went ahead and hooked it up as an additional monitor for my primary workstation as well... switching back and forth between the inputs as-needed. Working great.
Amazing Monitor3/29/2012
This monitor is re3ally cheap and affordable. It has a really nice quality.
Nice monitor3/20/2012
I bought this about a month or so ago and have been happy so far. The resolution and sharpness of the screen is awesome. The response time is good; I have been pleased with it playing games. The best feature is having the huge viewable are. I would recommend this to anyone look for a large monitor
After a month or so everything is great. I haven't found any bad pixels and the adjustments for the display are good. The thing is so big that I find I don't need to put on my reading glasses most of the time. I tried the speakers just to see how they were and quickly went back to my old ones. Monitors have very poor sound quality but I knew that. It came with cables, but I already had higher quaility ones. I've used both VGA and DVI connections both work well, DVI is better. I gave is a 4 on value because the prices are coming down after only a month so the value is already moving up to a 5.1 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful
Big and Beautiful9/15/2010
Maybe I just haven't bought an LCD in a few years and thus missed some industry-wide improvements, but this monitor blew me away. The colors look perfect, black levels are way darker than I'm used to, and there's no light bleed. The viewing angle is so wide that it's not the limiting factor any more; if you are in a position to see the screen at all, you're within the viewing angle. Similarly, the response time is fast enough to be beyond human sensory capabilities (or at least mine)...tracers and ghosts are a thing of the past. Round this all out with 1080p native resolution, 4 inputs (including Displayport, which is going to enable me to run this monitor along with two 19" as soon as my Radeon 5750 gets here) and picture-in-picture, and it's one really impressive piece of equipment. Oh...and did I mention it's HUGE?

importance of this experiment is not that of a potency estimate, but that of clear evidence of lifetime risk of pulmonary tumors from a 15-minute inhalation exposure.
The inhalation chamber exposures of McNamara and colleagues (1975) present the best available experimental data on sulfur mustard carcinogenicity (Tables 6-5 and 6-6). Of the rats exposed to 0.1 mg/m3 for 6.5 hours 5 days per week for 52 weeks, 10 of 23 developed agent-related tumors in a ''carcinogenicity study" and 9 of 39 in a "toxicity study." Of the 19 tumors, 17 were either squamous cell or basal cell carcinoma of the skin. No carcinomas were present in 52 control mice observed for similar periods. In the atmospheric exposure experiments of McNamara and colleagues, it should be noted that the only excess malignancies in exposed groups were skin tumors. With the exception of exposed strain A/J mice (which developed pulmonary tumors, but not in excess), no pulmonary tumors in any exposed group were reported in these inhalation experiments. Further, at similar inhalation exposures, but inadequate follow-up time, McNamara and colleagues observed no increase in agent-related skin or other malignancies in experiments with dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, and A/J mice. The skin malignancies, however, are noteworthy. First, their cumulative incidence in the high-exposure group approached 50 percent. Second, the absence of other tumors suggests that the skin malignancies were the result of external, rather than systemic, exposure. This suggests that similar or even lower cumulative air exposures may be of concern for human skin carcinogenicity, particularly in combination with high exposure to sunlight.
Because of a similar structure and toxicity, malignancies caused by nitrogen mustard (HN2) are also of interest. The intravenous and subcutaneous experiments using HN2 by Heston (1950, 1953a) have been mentioned above.
Another study by Shimkin and colleagues (1966) reviewed early National Cancer Institute bioassay data for 29 alkylating chemicals tested in strain A mice. Of the 29 compounds, the potency of HN2-HCl in producing pulmonary nodules was exceeded only by uracil mustard. The data for the five most potent compounds and that for chlorambucil and cyclophosphamide are shown in Table I-1.
Gold and colleagues (1984) reported a TD50 for all malignancies of 22.8 µg (0.0456 mg/kg) for HN2, based on laboratory rat data from Schmähl and Osswald (1970). TD50 is the cumulative exposure that is expected to produce an excess cancer mortality of 50 percent in a two-year followup; a low TD50 indicates a high potency. The TD50 for HN2 translates

'I Belong on That Team' : Cut from the U.S. Soccer Squad, She Says It's Due to Her Sex-Harassment Suit against a Former Coach
Brant, Martha, Newsweek
Debbie keller felt jilted on Valentine's Day. Her boyfriend got her a sweet card. He even surprised the sunny 23-year-old with a visit from out of town. But as one of the world's top women soccer players, Keller wanted to be living it up with the U.S. women's national team. They were in San Francisco, enjoying an elegant hotel, signing autographs for young fans. Almost everybody in the soccer world had expected Keller to be there, too. But while the other players basked in the attention, Keller was home in suburban Chicago, having been cut from the team during tryouts in December. "While they're training, I'm here in the snow," she says. "I belong on that team."
The reason she's not on the national team, Keller claims, is because of a sexual-harassment suit she filed last August against her former college coach at the University of North Carolina, Anson Dorrance. While Keller does not claim explicit sexual come-ons, she says he created a "hostile" play environment. Dorrance, who denies Keller's charges, is a legend in women's soccer, having led the UNC Tar Heels to 15 college championships. He is a former coach of the national team as well. Ten of the 26 players chosen for the current team played for Dorrance at UNC, and most of them-including star Mia Hamm-support the coach. That loyalty and the clubbiness of the soccer world, Keller believes, doomed her chances of making the team after she sued Dorrance.
This week, Keller and Williams & Connolly, the powerhouse D.C. law firm she hired, will go one step further, filing for arbitration against U.S. Soccer, the team's organizing federation.
