Looking to meet new people and enjoy life
Hello my name is John. I suppose like everyone else I am looking for someone to share life's adventures with. My ideal match would be someone that is independent and just wants to be with me for me. A person who is tired of all the games and is open and honest. I am a pretty laid back easy going individual with a big heart. My friends and family are very important to me and would love to meet someone that shares those same values. I have never been married and do not have any kids but I do love children and am open to still having some of my own one day if it is ment to be. I am very stable in life. In saying that I mean I have owned my own house for over 7 years, been at the same job for 12 years and have set out and achieved the goals I set for myself in life. I love to travel and just get away for the weekend. I am also the type that doesn't have to go out every night or weekend. I do enjoy the downtime of just being with someone weather its cooking at home together or cuddling on the couch watching a movie. Yes I do smoke and I know a lot of people don't these days. Its a nasty habit I picked up a few years ago but to be honest have not had a reason to quit. I am up for the challenge if I can find someone that is willing to aid and support me through it. Overall I am just looking to meet and get to know new people and see where life takes us. If its just meeting new friends or someone I can build a relationship with I am open to it all and excited to see what the future holds.

Whining & Dining: Economical beef roast stretches into veggie stew
I think the cold weather is over, and I know that I am over it. A few consecutive cold, gray days and I start trying to figure out how to make a living running a little bar and grill on a beach.
The bad news is that I don't think we can, not if we want to live in a house, too. The good news is that it's almost springtime in Memphis. I've looked at the 15-day forecast on Accuweather and the historical forecast for March.
Go get your pedicure. The lowest high for the remainder of the month is 59.
Asparagus! Strawberries! Radishes from the garden!
I can't wait for the culinary switch, which is probably the only reason I like a change of season (otherwise, I'd take summer year-round). Last week, I made a so-so batch of chicken and dumplings, and an excellent and very frugal pot roast.
It started with the basics: Chuck roast, potatoes, carrots and onions cooked low and slow in a sauce of beef broth and tomatoes. It tasted like a nice Sunday roast, and we enjoyed it thoroughly.
I was going to turn leftovers into a cheater's boeuf bourguignon, adding wine, mushrooms and pearl onions. But I thought of my grandfather's excellent vegetable stew, so I divided the leftovers instead. We had the boeuf bourguignon (really, it was beef stew with wine) one night, took a break, then on to Grandaddy's vegetable stew.
I cooked the remaining beef and sauce until it was greatly reduced, then added lima beans, corn, potatoes, onions and carrots, filled the pot with half beef stock and half water, and let it cook for about an hour or so.
It tasted so much like the country stew he used to make, when he'd toss in a small piece of meat, sauté it to render the flavor, then just keep adding vegetables.
It was delicious, and the whole pot probably contained less than a half-pound of beef. We ate it for two dinners, and though it really was economical, I felt a little guilty when we were done. Grandaddy would've stretched it out a week or more by adding different vegetables.
Anyway, the season of stews and chicken and dumplings is behind us for now. Let's rejoice by bringing out the grill this weekend.
Kudos, to the Chef
Ryan Trimm, co-owner and chef of Sweet Grass in Cooper Young, is up for a prestigious award. Food & Wine magazine, which named Restaurant Iris chef/owner Kelly English among Best New Chefs 2009 (and awarded the same designation to Jose Gutierrez more than 20 years ago) yesterday launched a new category: People's Best New Chef.
Trimm is in the running in the Southeast category.
"I have no clue how they picked me," Trimm said. "They called me and said one of their editors or reviewer came to the restaurant and loved it, and then they told me I was one of the chefs."
For Trimm to win, Memphians will have to get behind him and vote: Remember, this is people's choice. Cast your vote at
"I just feel wonderful to be among these guys," Trimm, 31, who just opened his restaurant in April 2010, said. "One of them. Josh Hopkins, helped train me when I was in Charleston."
We'll keep you posted on the tally at whiningdining.com. Voting ends March 1.
Soup Sunday
Youth Villages' 22nd annual Soup Sunday happens from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Feb. 27 at FedExForum, 191 Beale. More than 60 varieties of soup, gumbo and dessert will be served, and the money goes to a good cause.
There will be live music, space to dance and plenty of children's activities.
The VIP Souper Party features all the soups and foods of Soup Sunday, plus adult beverages, cooking demonstrations, live music and more in the Opus Restaurant.
Tickets are available at the door or at youthvillages.org (click on "events"). Entry is free for children ages 4 and under. Advance tickets bought online are $5 for children ages 5-10 and $15 for adults and children 11 and older. Advance VIP Souper Party tickets are $15 for children ages 5-10, $40 for adults and $70 for couples.
At the door, prices are $10 for children ages 5-10; $20 for adults and children 11 and older; $20 to the VIP event for children ages 5-10 and $50 for adults and children older than 11.
Thursday wine and cheese selections
This week, Jason Severs, chef/owner of Bari, and Elizabeth Mall with Delta Wholesale will pair the Italian cheese Formaio Ciok with a 2009 Inama Soave Classico. Bari at 22 S. Cooper definitely has the cheese, and you can pick it up for $7 per quarter-pound. Lucchesi's is supposed to have it, but that's unconfirmed at press time.
Next week, Angela Moon with Kirby Wines & Liquor has P.J. Valckenberg Dornfelder Red 2009, a slightly sweet German red, to match Alyce Mantia's cheese pick: Cambazola, a German blue.
See you online at 7 p.m. Thursday at whiningdining.com.
Recipe of the week
Lily, our 9-year-old foodie, went grocery shopping with me this weekend, and as we strolled the aisles of the Kroger at Poplar and Kirby, we talked about cooking.
She asked me for a pasta salad that uses "curly" pasta and has a little mayo but no mustard. I know she likes basil and found out yesterday that feta is her favorite cheese, so here's an adaptation of an easy recipe I found online.
Contact Jennifer Biggs at firstname.lastname@example.com or 529-5223. Her blog is whiningdining.com.
Presto Pasta Salad
3 cups cooked rotini pasta
1/4 cup light mayonnaise
3/4 cup pesto
1/4 cup sliced green onions
2 store-bought jarred roasted red peppers, chopped
1/4 to 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
Combine all ingredients except the feta in a large bowl. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, then top with the feta just before serving. Serve well chilled. Serves 2 to 4.

Is There a Benghazi Media Cover-up?
Is there a mainstream media cover-up of an Obama administration cover-up in the wake of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi, Libya, which left four Americans dead?
Since Sept. 12, the San Francisco Chronicle, where I work, has run about 67 stories, items, editorials, columns and letters that mention Benghazi. In September, I criticized Susan Rice, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, and White House press secretary Jay Carney for claiming that an anti-Islam video had incited the attack, not al-Qaida-inspired terrorists.
Some readers tell me that they see the Chronicle's failure to run a rash of front-page stories as proof of bias. They have a point, but they fail to appreciate the local emphasis in today's front-page placement, especially during a presidential election and a World Series, which the Giants, incidentally, won 4-zip.
Most important is the resources issue. Most dailies don't have foreign bureaus or reporters with the sources needed to break this type of story. "I don't think there's a bias issue, but we do have to rely on our primary news services," Chronicle Editor Ward H. Bushee told me.
That's where networks and other national news organizations come in — and many have produced important stories.
Before FBI investigators ventured into Benghazi, CNN reporter Arwa Damon found the journal of Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, who died in Benghazi, at the mission. CNN then reported on Stevens' concern about security in Benghazi.
From the Rose Garden the day after the attack, President Barack Obama declared, "We will work with the Libyan government to bring to justice the killers who attacked our people." Yet on Oct. 19, The New York Times reported that Ansar al-Shariah leader and suspected Benghazi ringleader Ahmed Abu Khattala was seen in a crowded Benghazi luxury hotel sipping mango juice as he claimed that no Libyan authorities had questioned him and that, by the way, he had no plans to go into hiding.
That scoop stands in stark contrast to the Times' failure to run a front-page story on a congressional hearing on the incident — for which the paper's public editor, Margaret Sullivan, scolded the editors' poor news judgment Oct. 11.
Fox News has been all over this story. On Friday, correspondent Jennifer Griffin reported that sources told her that a CIA team — including Tyrone Woods, who also died in Benghazi — had requested military backup during the attack but was told to "stand down." The CIA dismissed the story as "inaccurate."
A drone was deployed over Benghazi during the attack, which lasted about seven hours. Yet Defense Secretary Leon Panetta told reporters that he hadn't known enough about what was happening in real time to authorize a military rescue.
The Chronicle's most recent story on Benghazi ran Oct. 25. It reported that on Sept. 11, the State Department emailed the White House that Ansar al-Shariah had claimed responsibility for the attack. That would be shortly after 6 p.m. Eastern time. What did Obama know that night? When did he know it? And what did he do about it? Ditto Langley and the Pentagon.
Now ask yourself this: If George W. Bush were president and the press didn't know what he did on the evening of the Benghazi attack, do you think there would be the same focus in the media? I think we know the answer.

ZHANG, H; Hubbard, PL; Parker, GJM; Alexander, DC; (2011) Axon diameter mapping in the presence of orientation dispersion using diffusion MRI. In: Abbott, DF and Ackermann, JH, (eds.) Proceedings of the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM 2011): 19th Annual Meeting and Exhibition. (pp. 74 - 74). ISMRM: Berkeley, US.

Axon diameter mapping using diffusion MRI provides more specific biomarkers than DTI indices. Earlier works assume a model of strictly parallel axons. However, such approximation is inadequate for most white matter regions in which axons fan or bend, resulting in significant orientation dispersion. Such dispersion, if unaccounted for, leads to overestimation of axon diameters. We ameliorates this problem by proposing a model that captures orientation dispersion explicitly. We demonstrate that recovery of axon diameters is possible even in the presence of orientation dispersion, supporting accurate axon diameter mapping in a much wider set of white matter than previously possible

Bel Respiro by Chanel
Pure sophistication. Bel Respiro is a fantastic example of how a frarance can be at the same time discreet and light manitaining an incredible class and character. A graceful green-floral composition that while sharing some similarities with No.19 it also takes the distance from many of the other Chanels because of its transparent, almost weightless, structure. A subtle leathery note adds a necessary extra touch to the gently sweet drydown. Simply delightful.

Tuesday EuroMillions Jackpot Estimated at £94/€111 Million
Tuesday EuroMillions Jackpot Estimated at £94/€111 Million
26/03/2013 09:09:03
All eyes are on the EuroMillions draw tonight as there is an impressive jackpot on offer to win as there were no players that matched the numbers drawn in the Superdraw on Friday. Players will this evening be crossing their fingers and hoping to strike lucky as the Tuesday EuroMillions jackpot on offer to win tonight is estimated at £94/€111 million so the question is can any players match the numbers drawn tonight or will this top prize rollover again?
This is now the highest the EuroMillions jackpot has been for this year. Previous to this the jackpot reached £52/€60 million on the 19th February 2013 in which a ticket purchased in Switzerland matched the numbers drawn to win this jackpot – so we shall have to wait and see if this jackpot will get any bigger and rollover again or if luck will be on anyone's side tonight.
The last time the EuroMillions jackpot surpassed the €100 million mark was on the 21st December 2012 when after several rollovers the top prize was worth £83/€101 million. In this draw there was one winning ticket from France which matched the five main numbers and two Lucky Stars drawn to win this impressive top prize.
Whether tonight's EuroMillions jackpot will be won or not remains to be seen however if winning £94/€111 million appeals to you make sure you have your tickets ready for tonight's draw – you never know it could be your lucky night!
The latest results from tonight's draw will be available to view on www.euro-millions.com shortly after the draw has taken place.

Obama risked losing support after Hispanics were hit hard by the economic crisis.
WASHINGTON: U.S. President Barack Obama Friday defended his decision to lift the threat of deportation for hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants, saying it gave them an overdue "sense of hope," in his first speech to a Latino group since he announced the measure.
The speech to the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials near Orlando, Florida also comes a day after the group gave a cool reception to Republican presidential challenger Mitt Romney and his newly softened stance on immigration.
"It was the right thing to do," Obama declared, challenging Republicans in Congress to join him finally on a big, broad fix of the U.S. immigration laws.
Obama's immigration initiative, announced less than five months before the November elections, delighted many in the Latino community and drew renewed attention to the key Hispanic voting bloc and its potential for affecting the presidential election. Obama won 67 percent of the Hispanic vote in 2008, and aides believe he could do better this time.
While the economy continues to dominate the presidential race, Obama's team was mindful that anything – including issues like immigration or gay marriage – could shift the balance in the contest, which surveys show is still in the balance with less than five months to go before the polls.
A new Associated Press-GfK survey released Friday showed that Obama's recent endorsement of gay marriage did little to shift U.S. views on the subject, but that the president fired up his core supporters. More young people, liberals and Democrats say they strongly approve of Obama's handling of same-sex marriage than said they did before he disclosed his new position last month.
The AP-GfK poll showed that voters, at least nationally, had not chosen to abandon the president.
When asked which candidate Americans trust would do a better job of handling social issues such as abortion and same-sex marriage, there was little change from a poll taken about a week before Obama's May 9 announcement; 52 percent now side with Obama, compared with 36 percent for Romney.
More Democrats and liberals said they strongly approved of the president's handling of gay marriage than did last August; 41 percent of Democrats now say that, compared with 26 percent back then, and 48 percent of liberals have that view, up from 28 percent almost a year ago.
But a potential problem for the president is that his announcement also fired up the right against him. More Republicans and conservatives said they strongly disapprove of his handling of the issue now than before; 53 percent of Republicans said that, compared with 45 percent in August, and 52 percent of conservatives say as much now, up from 43 percent back then.
The issue could compel them to turn out in droves to vote against Obama.
Romney, who spoke to the Hispanic group Thursday, backed off the tough anti-illegal immigrant rhetoric of the Republican primaries and vowed to address illegal immigration "in a civil but resolute manner." He outlined plans to overhaul the green card system for immigrants with families and end immigration caps for their spouses and children.
But while he attacked Obama's new plan to ease deportation rules as little more than a "stopgap measure," he was vague about how he would treat immigrant children brought to the country illegally by their parents, and refused to say whether he would reverse Obama's policy.
Obama and his advisers clearly see an advantage on the issue, with Obama expected to draw attention to his initiative Friday and call for an overhaul of the entire immigration system. He was also expected to renew his call for Congress to pass his job creation measures, which he has proposed to pay for with tax increases on the wealthy, an idea Republicans reject outright.
Though hardly monolithic in their approach to politics, a majority of Hispanics have been voting Democratic in recent elections.
Obama risked losing some support in part because Hispanics have been hard hit by the economy.
Latino leaders had also grown frustrated with Obama because of his failure to deliver on his 2008 pledge to overhaul immigration, with his administration having deported record numbers of illegal immigrants.

This far-reaching and long overdue chronicle of communication for development from a leading scholar in the field presents in-depth policy analyses to outline a vision for how communication technologies can impact social change and improve human lives. Drawing on the pioneering works of Daniel Lerner, Everett Rogers, and Wilbur Schramm as well as his own personal experiences in the field, Emile G. McAnany builds a new, historically cognizant paradigm for the future that supplements technology with social entrepreneurship. McAnany summarizes the history of the field of communication for development and social change from Truman's Marshall Plan for the Third World to the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals. Part history and part policy analysis,Saving the Worldargues that the communication field can renew its role in development by recognizing large aid-giving institutions have a difficult time promoting genuine transformation. McAnany suggests an agenda for improving and strengthening the work of academics, policy makers, development funders, and any others who use communication in all of its forms to foster social change.

NEW YORK, April 2, 2010 The television news and entertainment media are missing the mark when it comes to communicating realistic and helpful information about health and weight to Americans, according to an expert media panel assembled today at Pace University in New York City. The National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA) and Strategies to Overcome and Prevent (STOP) Obesity Alliance organized the program, called "Weighty Matters," to uncover some of the biggest hurdles in discussing size and weight and recommend ways to effectively and responsibly communicate the connection between health and weight to the public.
The program was unprecedented as it brought together for the first time NEDA and the Alliance as well as experts from the obesity and eating disorders communities. Representatives from NEDA and the Alliance said that increasing public concern about the rise in obesity has led to societal confusion about what's healthy and has created an unrealistic pressure to be thin.
"There persists a string of television network reality and drama programs focused on extreme weight loss. A flood of images featuring unrealistically thin models line magazines and ads. And a nearly $50 billion diet and weight loss industry hocks products in every venue possible. It's no wonder our country has a problem with weight," said Diana Williams of WABC-TV. "There is a lack of information and understanding about weight and health in our culture and it's resulting in both skyrocketing rates of obesity and eating disordered behavior."
Williams moderated a panel that included: Emme, Model and Activist, NEDA Ambassador; Dr. Max Gomez, Medical Reporter, WCBS-TV; Kate Dailey, Health and Lifestyles Editor, Newsweek.com; Wendy Naugle, Deputy Editor, Glamour Magazine; Dr. Donna Ryan, President, The Obesity Society; Jen Drexler, Partner, Just Ask a Woman; Joe Nadglowski, Jr., President & CEO, Obesity Action Coalition; and, Dr. Ovidio Bermudez,

With the HealthCare.gov site rebooted after a month of repairs, officials at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services are being increasingly forthcoming with reporters about traffic to the site.
Details of the site's poor performance at its Oct. 1 launch were revealed by officials in often-contentious congressional hearings and in documents requested from contractors under the threat of subpoena. With the site now on firmer footing, CMS is more than happy to volunteer the substantial uptick in traffic, with numbers being offered in near-real time on daily press calls.
More than 950,000 users visited HealthCare.gov on Dec 3, according to CMS spokesperson Julie Bataille. Between midnight and 1 p.m. on Dec. 4, the site had 310,000 visits. These new usage levels represent an 80 percent increase from a week earlier. A new comparison-shopping feature that allows users to compare plans and benefits in detail before logging in or creating an account has drawn 790,000 users since the evening of Dec. 1, making it the third-most popular page on the site.
CMS is still being stingy with one piece of information -- the error rates occurring in transmissions of enrollment data to health insurance carriers. These "834 forms" are still the cause of major headaches at insurance companies, and there remains the challenge of sorting through errors that persist in records for any of the approximately 126,000 users who enrolled in plans via the Federally Facilitated Exchanges in October and November.
Bataille said that developers at contractor Quality Software Services Inc., which is leading the repair effort, believe that "the majority of issues causing inaccuracies previously have been resolved."
However, she declined multiple requests from reporters on a conference call to quantify the number of people affected by 834 errors, and whether errors continue to affect enrollees who came to the site since Nov. 30. Press reports indicate that almost 30,000 users were able to sign up for insurance on Dec. 1 and Dec. 2 alone -- a massive increase over previous enrollment levels. However, the bigger numbers could lead to big problems on the insurance-carrier side if the 834 errors persist, as many in the insurance industry suggest.

Hostelworld "meet the world" by Lucky Generals
Rating: 5.0
By Ian Darby, campaignlive.co.uk, Tuesday, 02 June 2009 09:15AM
The majority of the money owing, $121 million, is to Publicis' Starcom MediaVest agency for unpaid media bills.
Interpublic Group is owed $16 million, Publicis Groupe $25 million and McCann Erickson $4.6 million.
Despite owing money to a long list of creditors and filing for bankruptcy with $172 billion of debts, GM has launched a new commercial explaining that filing for bankruptcy will ultimately result in a stronger GM.
The money owed to agencies by GM dwarfs the $58 million that Chrsyler owed its network, BBDO, when it filed for bankruptcy last month.
In Europe, the situation is potentially less dire for GM's creditors as the German government has orchestrated a bail-out of its European operations financed by the Canadian company Magna International and Sberbank, a state-owned Russian bank.
Meanwhile, Deutsch LA has released a new ad outlining the restructuring planned by the company (see video above).

Warrant roundup begins March 5
CORPUS CHRISTI - People with outstanding city warrants have two weeks to clear their case at municipal court before a statewide warrant roundup begins and police officers start looking for them.
The downtown municipal court offices will be open longer hours, from 8:30 a.m. until 6:30 p.m., to allow people to resolve their citations.
The extended hours begin Monday and continue until March 4.
Beginning March 5, officers will arrest wanted people.
Anyone who stops by the court, in the same building as the Corpus Christi Police Department, 321 John Sartain St., before a city marshal comes looking will be given more flexibility in terms of payment and other options.
Corpus Christi's roundup is part of the fifth annual Great Texas Warrant Round Up, when more than 200 other law enforcement agencies also try to crack down on Class C misdemeanor violators.
The focus is on code and traffic violations, excluding parking tickets. Anyone with an outstanding warrant should have received several letters about the matter.

Investors Business Daily Op-Ed: "Economics: Despite the opposition of the European Union's most powerful nation, Germany, the European Central Bank has launched a massive quantitative easing program. It's not what the stagnant EU needs.
Yes, markets rallied on the news, largely cheering the fact that someone, anyone, seems to be doing something about the eurozone's fast-deflating and slumping economy. But the giddiness isn't likely to last."
Opinion: Definitions:
- Inflation – A general increase in prices and fall in the purchasing value of money.
- Deflation – A general decline in prices, often caused by a reduction in the supply of money or credit.
- Hyperinflation – Sudden price increases out of control rendering the concept of inflation meaningless.
Central bankers are convinced that the world's economies are deflating and it is their job to jump-start inflation. In order to make controlled inflation happen, bankers have been experimenting since 2008 with quantitative easing (QE), or creating money to buy back the nation's debt (bonds).
When bonds are purchased in massive quantities interest rates go down, and conversely when bonds are sold in massive quantities interest rates go up.
Yesterday, Mario Draghi, the European Central Bank president announced a new QE of bond purchases to the tune of 60 billion euros per month. Draghi, whose name translates to dragon, is a Harvard educated, Goldman Sachs banker who is either lying or ignorant of the commonsense economic principles regarding counterfeit money.
Someday the bill for the created debt will have to be paid. Economies have two natural cures for excessive government: spending and debt.
Recession: period of temporary economic decline during which trade and industrial activity are reduced, generally identified by a fall in GDP in two successive quarters.
Depression: a severe and sustained long-term downturn in economic activity; an extreme recession that lasts two or more years.
The recession of 2008-9 should have resulted in depression. Government tinkering in the housing market forced lenders to sell mortgages to people who had no hope of paying them off, packaged up those mortgages and sold them to banks all over the world.
But, instead of allowing the depression to cleanse the market, government tinkered again and created more money called stimulus, or QE.
Chairman Draghi's new QE caused euphoria yesterday in the world's stock markets, much like a 5 year old on too much sugar.
Someday, that 5 year old will get a real bad tummy ache.
Hyperinflation is sudden and prophetic, Revelation 6:5-6.

Thanks so much!!
Admin Bar options reapeared for editors after Update 1.8.2 besides still marked at Adminimize panel.
How can I solve it?
Thanks so much!!
Sorry, I dont understand the question. You lost the settings?
The current public version is 1.8.1.
The 1.8.2 is the next one, but nut ready in all tests.
Thanks for answer Frank.
I'll try to explain you what I did step by step.
I installed Adminimize 3 o 4 days ago. Worked perfectly.
And I setted up the options for editor users to hide all elements in Admin bar except site name, and user login/logout button.
I'm combining Adminimize with "User Role Editor" plugin to give extra capavilities to editor users. Everything wordked fine.
One day ago I saw an Adminimize update notification on my plugins panel. I accepted it and now I have version 1.8.2. This is the text in Catalan (Versió 1.8.2 | Per Frank Bültge | Visita el lloc web de l'extensió)
After update, I can see all the elements in Admin Bar using editor's profile, although they are all selected to be disabled in Adminimize control panel. All the other Adminimize options (like hide some lateral menu options for editor users) still working perfectly.
I tried to deselect and re-select Admin bar elements and nothing happens in editor's profile.
If I test with my admin account I can see the changes in my admin bar.
Thank you very much for your help!!
I exactly have the same what Apsed descibed:(
Plz help!!
Hi Frank,
Any news of this problem, I still can not solve it
Thank you very much!
@Apsed: The last version have different changes to the admin bar settings.
Can you update the settings and after this reset the setings for the different roles and check, that hide the items inside the admin bar for the different roles? Thanks for feedback.
On my tests works fine; I can remove items for all roles.
Hi Frank!
I finally unistalled Adminimize an User Role Editor and istalled again and now works fine. Reset both pungin options and disable wasn't enougth for my project.
The process I followed is this:
- Reset editor default capabilities in User Role Editor plugin.
- Uninstall User Role Editor plugin.
- Delete Adminimize options using Desinstall Option (in the bottom of list options) for clean database from all pltugin entries.
- Unistall Adminimize plugin completly.
- Install the last adminimize version from "Add new plugin" in plugin area.
- Install User Role Editor plugin.
- Setup editor profile capabilites as you want.
- Finally setup Adminimize options as you want.
I mark this topic as resolved
Thank you very much for your help!
You do a great job with this plugin.
Thanks for feedback and praise.

Texas Rangers right-hander Alexi Ogando is expected to miss four to six weeks with a strained right groin. The Rangers placed Ogando on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday, two days after he was hurt while running to first base on a bunt single at San Francisco. Ogando had thrown three perfect innings in his first start of the season in place of lefty Derek Holland, who is on the DL with shoulder fatigue. Ogando is 1-0 with a 2.08 ERA in 34 2-3 innings. His first 27 appearances were in relief. The Rangers recalled left-hander Michael Kirkman from Triple-A Round Rock to take Ogando's roster spot.

Roster tough to predict this year
SARASOTA, Fla. - The last couple years, it was possible to pick 23 or 24 roster spots for the Reds at this point in spring training.
All you had to do was look at who had options and who had a major-league contract, and you could come up with 10 or 11 pitchers and 12 or 13 position players with a good degree of certainty.
It's not so easy this year.
Part of it is that general manager Wayne Krivsky's signees - Scott Hatteberg, Tuffy Rhodes, Michael Gosling and Quinton McCracken - were added to an already full spring training roster.
Hatteberg and Gosling are on the 40-man. McCracken spent all of last year in the big leagues. And Rhodes hit 360 home runs over the past 10 years in Japan. These aren't guys brought in to play at Triple-A.
"You always want competition," Krivsky said. "We've got a lot of options in the bullpen, the rotation, the infield and the bench."
The options could lead to some very difficult choices in late March.
The Reds will start to sort things out this week when the games begin. They have an exhibition game with the Kia Tigers of Korea Tuesday and an intrasquad game Wednesday. They start the exhibition schedule Thursday against Detroit in Lakeland.
The roster is a little bloated mainly because Krivsky was hired so late. You have a combination of Krivsky's guys and former GM Dan O'Brien's guys. Interim GM Brad Kullman even got into the act, signing relief pitcher Rick White to a big-league contract.
Not everyone is going to get a fair shot.
"If you're on the bubble, every day you go out there could be big for you," Reds manager Jerry Narron said.
But players on the fringe of the roster will have to earn jobs.
"We're not going to have guys make the team by default," Narron said. "I'm all for guys earning their way on."
It wasn't like that under O'Brien or the GM who preceded him, Jim Bowden. Bowden kept Wily Mo Peña on the roster in 2003 even though he was far from ready for the big leagues. Peña ended up hitting .218 in 165 at-bats that year - severely hurting his development as a player.
O'Brien put Anderson Machado on the roster last July after he hit .139 on a rehab assignment. Both decisions were made because the players were out of options.
Krivsky put Luke Hudson and Jung Keun Bong on waivers to get players he wanted on the roster. He didn't lose either player, but he showed no reluctance to take the risk.
So beginning today, a lot of players are going to take a long ride on the bubble.
Just look at the bullpen: White, Mike Burns and Chris Hammond were added to the 40-man roster. Add them to holdovers Matt Belisle, Todd Coffey, Kent Mercker, Brian Shackelford, Allan Simpson, Jason Standridge, Ryan Wagner and David Weathers. You also have three non-roster pitchers - Hudson, Jimmy Journell and Tommy Phelps - who got significant big-league time last season.
That's 14 guys vying for seven spots.
The bullpen isn't the only place were there will be tough calls.
The depth chart at second base is about six deep.
Whom are you going to pick for a left-handed bat off the bench? Rhodes with his 360 homers in Japan? Or Jacob Cruz, who led the National League in pinch-hits?
It could make for a very interesting spring.
"I hope so," Narron said.

Grand jury looking into Perry hears from key senator
By Peggy Fikac | May 9, 2014 | Updated: May 9, 2014 4:50pm
Photo By Susan Walsh/Associated PressFILE - In this March 7, 2014 file photo, Texas Gov. Rick Perry speaks at the Conservative Political Action Committee annual conference in National Harbor, Md. Special State District Judge Bert Richardson is expected to seat a grand jury Monday, April 14, 2014, in Austin, Texas, in an investigation into whether Republican Gov. Rick Perry abused his power by vetoing funding for public corruption prosecutors. The investigation began after Perry vetoed $7.5 million in funding last summer for a public integrity unit under Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg. (AP Photo/Susan Walsh, File)
Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg is handcuffed after pleading guilty to drunken driving.
Travis District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg pleaded guilty to DWI.
Photo By Associated PressThis booking photo provided by The Travis County Sheriff's Office shows Rosemary Lehmberg. Lehmberg, the Travis County district attorney, on Saturday April 13, 2013, faced a drunken driving charge after a 911 caller alerted authorities to a vehicle weaving and crossing into oncoming traffic. The Austin American-Statesman reported Lehmberg was booked into the county jail early Saturday after being arrested for driving while intoxicated. (AP Photo/Travis County Sheriff's Office)
AUSTIN — A senator appeared Friday before a grand jury investigating whether Gov. Rick Perry abused his authority.
The grand jury is looking at whether Perry acted improperly when he threatened to veto funding for the Public Integrity Unit overseen by Travis County District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg unless she resigned in the wake of her messy drunken-driving arrest last year.
Sen. Kirk Watson, an Austin Democrat, was tapped by Perry's office to convey the veto threat to Lehmberg, also a Democrat.
She didn't resign, and Perry vetoed the money.
After the veto, sources have told the San Antonio Express-News that Perry aides offered to restore funding and allow some type of continued employment for Lehmberg in the DA's office if she resigned her elected job.
Travis County Commissioner Gerald Daughtery, a Republican, has told the Express-News that he reached out to Perry's office to see if there was some way to restore the money, which amounted to about $7.5 million over two years.
Perry this week said he didn't initiate any deal with regard to Lehmberg.
Watson wouldn't discuss his appearance before the grand jury Friday, citing confidentiality obligations.
Also appearing before the grand jury Friday were Deece Eckstein, Travis County intergovernmental relations coordinator; and John Hille, who is director of transactions at the Travis County Attorney's office and works closely with the Travis County Commissioner's Court.

The T-Mobile Sidekick 4G continues the Sidekick's legacy as an excellent messaging device and also serves as a great entry-level smartphone.
E3, the Electronic Entertainment Expo, highlights the latest in interactive games for computers, consoles, handhelds, and more.
With the design improvements and addition of features such as 3G and GPS, the T-Mobile Sidekick LX 2009 graduates from a simple messaging handheld to a real connected, all-in-one communication device for the younger crowd.
Pricing not available
Fans of messaging phones will appreciate that the reasonably-priced Optimus F3Q carries out the basics without breaking a sweat. Its unfortunately scant on-board storage is not a deal-breaker.
With the new features, extra level of customization, and affordable price tag, the T-Mobile Sidekick is a good choice for the carrier's younger customers looking for an all-in-one communication device.
The answer is a little complicated, but T-Mobile will almost certainly officially eclipse Sprint in the current quarter.
The Samsung Gravity 3's full QWERTY keyboard and messaging features are enough to satisfy most heavy communicators, with other advanced features icing the cake. At $50 with a two-year service agreement, the Gravity is a good midlevel option for those who aren't ready to jump into the smartphone arena.
But there's a catch: You have to commit to a new smartphone as part of the new upgrade program. Also, only a select number of flagship phones are available for an upgrade.
The smartphone, which is Sony's answer to popular Android-based devices, mysteriously disappeared from T-Mobile a month ago, and neither the carrier nor Sony would say why.
A merger between the nation's fourth-largest wireless carrier and second-largest satellite-TV provider is intriguing. Here's why.
No reasons for the discontinuation have been given but Sony cannot be happy that its flagship handset is down to one major US carrier.

Easy to install, good value. The appearance got 4 stars because it's dull looking. That is the price point, no doubt. Performance is the reason and it does deliver but, it's up in the very high side of the RPM's. With the 8 speed transmission, you won't find your self there often. I plan on a performance exhaust next to open up the other end of the motor. This was a reasonably good upgrade.

July!!!!! Riding around the Bike Park is incredible right now. We have had just enough rain to keep the dust down and the flowers are already above the bars. The entire Bike Park is open as well as the Peak trail and Archery Park so a lot of reasons to spend some time with your family at CBMR over the holiday weekend. July also means the Pinnacle race series has started. On Wednesday 7/1 we had 65 riders line up to lay down their fastest time going down Luge. I was fortunate to be the starter for the evening event and the collection of riders was awesome. Youth riders under 12, young riders barley in their teenage years that are riding with more skill and speed than most of us could hope for, a great showing in the women's categories and 15 of the fastest locals filling out the men's expert class. I have always been a fan of gravity racing and I love it when we get such a great turnout for this grassroots race. Thanks and I look forward to seeing you next Wednesday. Starting Monday 7/6 we will doing some more maintenance to Frequency so there will be some periodic closures on that trail. We will also be doing some work on Westside so that trail may be closed on and off through the week. Also keep an eye on the UCI world Cup Downhill. They are racing in Switzerland on the Saturday the 4th on a track that should give American Aaron Gwinn a good chance at another win. The last race in Austria a couple weeks ago he broke his chain on the first few pedal strokes and ended up winning the race on a track that is considered to have a flat pedaly section by World Cup DH standards. Send him some support today and hope to see the Red, White, and Blue jersey at the top of the podium tomorrow.

Objective: Predicting peritoneal dissemination of cancer is very difficult whatever method of examination is used. Recently, a cytological examination of peritoneal lavage has been shown to be a feasible measure to predict an early state of peritoneal seeding. The predictive value of the levels of tumor markers in peritoneal lavage for peritoneal metastasis from gastric carcinoma was thus studied. Methods: In 229 patients gastric cancer tumor markers, CEA, CA 125, and CA 19-9, in peritoneal lavage were intraoperatively evaluated using a chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay. Results: CEA in peritoneal lavage at a cutoff level of 0.5 ng/ml showed overall a higher sensitivity of 75.8% at a specificity of 90.8% for a diagnosis of peritoneal dissemination including cytologically positive peritoneal lavage [CY(+)] than CA 125 or CA 19-9 in peritoneal lavage. The CEA level in peritoneal lavage as well as both serosal invasion and the CA 125 level in peritoneal lavage were significant factors for the prediction of peritoneal dissemination including CY(+) with a relative risk of 6.6, 14.1 and 9.4. In patients undergoing curative operations, the recurrence rate for peritoneal dissemination and liver metastasis in cases with CEA levels in peritoneal lavage of ≧0.5 ng/ml was significantly higher than that in cases with CEA levels of <0.5 ng/ml (p < 0.0001, p < 0.002). Conclusions: These finding suggest that the CEA level in peritoneal lavage is thus considered to be a predictor of peritoneal dissemination including CY(+).
