The Problem-Solving Approach
Igo, Carl, Moore, Donna M., Ramsey, Jon, Ricketts, John C., Techniques
ALL PEOPLE PROBLEM SOLVE, AND PROBLEM SOLVING is the key to life. Such a bold generalization by British theorist Michael Kirton would be applauded by generations of agricultural education practitioners dedicated to the problem-solving approach to teaching. This approach has been recommended over the years as the primary teaching method by an assortment of well-respected educators. In career, technical and agricultural education (CTAE), the problem-solving approach to teaching usually involves an interest approach, a description of teaching objectives, identification of the problems to be solved, actual problem solution, testing of the solution, and an evaluation of the solution (Newcomb, McCracken, Warmbrod, and Whittington, 2004). While this method is familiar to many CTAE professionals, its title and methodology is not ingrained in mainstream educational research and practice. A question of importance for today's academic leaders centers on the potential for career, technical and agriculture programs to influence student achievement. Investigators of the problem-solving approach believe students become more engaged using inquiry-based, problem-solving learning strategies. Student engagement is maintained when coupled with highly qualified, caring teachers who use a contextualized curriculum that connects new ideas and skills to students' past knowledge and experience.
What is Problem-based Learning?
Problem-based learning (PBL), sometimes referred to as case-based learning, is an instructional tool that has been effectively used in medical training for decades. PBL expects students to collectively experience contextualized, relevant, ill-structured problems and to strive to find and create meaningful solutions. This method needs to be facilitated by instructors, but learning is primarily constructed by students who have been presented with the problem. Thus, the defining characteristics of PBL include:
1. Learning is driven by challenging open-ended problems.
2. Students work in small collaborative groups.
3. Teachers take on the role of facilitators of learning.
As a teaching process, PBL requires students to learn in groups. Social interaction provides learners with opportunities to test and defend their own understanding as well as enrich and expand their knowledge by examining the views of others (Richardson, 2003, as cited in Burris 2005). Teachers may facilitate PBL by making their classrooms/labs communities of learning. The PBL method requires an encounter with the problem or case and a seeking of information and solutions prior to content area instruction. Additionally, most problems to be solved using PBL are "messy" or "ill-structured." Specifically, problems to be solved via PBL:
1. Confuse just enough to provoke curiosity and provide a reason for learning.
2. Provoke thought on new things in new ways.
3. Help students discover what they do and do not know.
4. Ensure that students reach beyond what they know.
5. Create a need and desire for skill and knowledge.
6. Lead to understanding the relationship of a procedure to the problem that makes the procedure sensible.
7. Naturally lead to interdisciplinary inquiry.
8. Build strong communities of learners.
9. Create cooperation in the strongest sense that is based on the will and desire to succeed rather than a set of dictated behaviors that are advocated for the sake of politeness.
Contextualized learning is a fundamental factor associated with PBL. PBL is a form of education in which knowledge is mastered through the same context in which it will be used. The contextualized nature of PBL does not refer to subject-specific or compartmentalized problems. PBL allows career and technical education (CTE) programs to use the context of their discipline to reinforce the basic skills of math, science and English in a hands-on, inquiry-based environment. …

Defense Grid Review 0
Despite being around for quite some time (1990's Rampart was probably the first example), there really aren't too many retail titles in the Tower Defense (TD) strategy niche of gaming. Instead, independent developers have released free mods for existing titles and Flash games to fill the void. Recently though PixelJunk Monsters and Ninjatown have stormed the scene and acquired many a rabid fan, making the viability of a retail TD style game plausible. Now, Hidden Path's newest PC offering titled...7 out of 7 found this review helpful.
The High Water Mark for Tower Defense 0
Defense Grid is extremely good value for money, providing hours of rich immersive tower defense gameplay for a budget price, making this an excellent initiation into the genre for newcomers and a must own game for strategy fans. In an era where the tower defense genre has become increasingly prevalent, both as simple online flash games and as actual disc and digital download products, it's becoming ever so slightly oversaturated, although not quite to the degree of third and first person shoot...1 out of 1 found this review helpful.
A good tower defense game. 0
If you like tower defense games, this one is a solid offering. Towers are upgradeable, and varied with what they do. I found it more of a benefit to use up all of your tower spaces before upgrading though. Later levels even offer "open paths", where you can alter the route that the baddies take by your tower placements. Thats something not all TD games have. Not much else to say about the game, but I do enjoy playing it....0 out of 0 found this review helpful.

A Safe Purchase 0
Defense Grid is a tower defense game. I could probably end the review right here and most people would already know the experience. You build towers with guns. Aliens attack in the deadliest form of offense known in the universe: a slow peaceful parade. They die, you get money, towers get upgraded or reinforced, and repeat until the waves of aliens stop.

Defending the Grid Feels Oddly Familiar 0
The red-headed step-child of the Real Time Strategy genre, Tower Defense games have been minorly popular for the last 10 years. The basic idea behind the genre is that there are dudes going from point A to point B. Kill them before they reach point B.

Defense Grid Rewrites the Book on Tower Defense 0
After Hidden Path Entertainment released their perennial tower defense title, Defense Grid: The Awakening for Xbox Live Arcade and playing it previously on Steam, I was anxious and more than a bit intrigued to see how the quality would translate on to the Xbox 360.

Michael Pineda Rumors
Rosenthal On Hammel, Pirates, Tigers, Gomez
Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports points out that Jason Hammel has outperformed Jeremy Guthrie so far this season. The right-handers were traded for one another this offseason (with Matt Lindstrom also going to the Orioles) and Hammel has pitched well for Baltimore, while Guthrie is on Colorado's disabled list. Here are more notes from Rosenthal:
- Some considered Hammel a "passive competitor," but Dan Duquette and the Orioles viewed him as a dependable innings eater. Hammel, 29, has a 1.73 ERA with 8.7 K/9 and 2.8 BB/9 through 26 innings for his new team.
- Though Yankees GM Brian Cashman says his team did more background work than ever before acquiring Michael Pineda from Seattle, one rival executive says his club grew concerned. The right-hander showed diminished velocity in his final start of the 2011 season after struggling in the second half. Pineda will miss the 2012 season with a shoulder injury.
- The Pirates aren't scoring many runs, but rival executives like the trio of Alex Presley, Jose Tabata and Andrew McCutchen at the top of Pittsburgh's order, Rosenthal writes.
- Tigers starters other than Justin Verlander and Drew Smyly have struggled so far this year, and rival executives expect Detroit to make a strong push for rotation help by the July trade deadline.
- Brewers GM Doug Melvin told Rosenthal that Carlos Gomez would generate approximately as much interest as Yoenis Cespedes if you put him in a tryout camp. Gomez, who is two months younger than Cespedes, could be a late-bloomer, Melvin said.

Yankees Notes: Pineda, Cashman, Pettitte
Michael Pineda will miss the rest of the season to undergo and recover from arthroscopic shoulder surgery. The injury weakens the Yankees for the current season and creates questions about what the 23-year-old will contribute long-term. Here are the latest links regarding the Yankees and their pitching staff…
- The Yankees were looking forward to strong pitching performances from Pineda at reasonable salaries that would help keep the team's payroll beneath the $189MM luxury tax threshold, Joel Sherman of the New York Post writes. Yankees GM Brian Cashman says he regrets the injury, but not his team's decision-making process. "The deal we did I would do that ten times out of ten," Cashman told Sherman.
- Andy Pettitte's return is suddenly much more vital to the Yankees, Sherman notes. The left-hander pitched five innings at Double-A Trenton last night, allowing three earned runs.
- John Harper of the New York Daily News says it's not reasonable or fair to blame Cashman for Pineda's shoulder injury. The Yankees evaluated the right-hander's elbow and shoulder carefully at the time of the trade and his arm seemed fine. "He was strong as a bull in resistance testing," Cashman said.
- Harper points out that scouts and executives liked the Pineda-Jesus Montero trade for the Yankees back in January.

Michael Pineda To Undergo Labrum Operation
Michael Pineda has a tear in his right labrum and will undergo arthroscopic surgery next Tuesday, according to Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News (Twitter link). The 23-year-old will likely miss a full year, MLB.com's Bryan Hoch tweets. The Yankees acquired Pineda in an offseason trade that sent their top hitting prospect to the Mariners, but the right-hander has yet to pitch his first inning in pinstripes.
On paper the Yankees have a relatively deep rotation even without Pineda. Andy Pettitte continues working his way back to the Major Leagues, where he's expected to join C.C. Sabathia, Hiroki Kuroda, Ivan Nova, Phil Hughes and Freddy Garcia.
Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports examined the Pineda-Jesus Montero trade earlier today (before this afternoon's news), declaring the Mariners the early winners of the swap. Yankees GM Brian Cashman says Pineda was healthy when the Yankees acquired him in January, Hoch tweets. Pineda, a rookie in 2011, won't be arbitration eligible until the 2013-14 offseason.

Poll: Best Trade Package For A Young Pitcher
When the offseason started, we figured it would be headlined by a pair of MVP caliber bats (Albert Pujols and Prince Fielder) and a Japanese import (Yu Darvish). While those three certainly garnered their fair share of attention, the winter was mostly dominated by trades involving young, high-upside pitchers with multiple years of team control remaining.
The Doug Fister trade seemed to get it all started. The Mariners sent him and David Pauley to the Tigers for Francisco Martinez, Casper Wells, Charlie Furbush, and Chance Ruffin at the trade deadline. Four similar young, high-upside starters with multiple years of contractual control remaining were traded this offseason. Here are those deals, presented chronologically…
- Athletics trade Trevor Cahill (and Craig Breslow) to the Diamondbacks for Jarrod Parker, Collin Cowgill, and Ryan Cook.
- Padres trade Mat Latos to the Reds for Edinson Volquez, Yasmani Grandal, Yonder Alonso, and Brad Boxberger.
- Athletics trade Gio Gonzalez to the Nationals for Brad Peacock, A.J. Cole, Tom Milone, and Derek Norris.
- Mariners trade Michael Pineda (and Jose Campos) to the Yankees for Jesus Montero and Hector Noesi.
Each trade involved multiple young players going the other way, including at least one top 100 prospect according to Baseball America. Which team got the best return for their young hurler?

Yankees Notes: Pineda, Ibanez, Willis
The Yankees have averaged more than 97 regular season wins per year since 1996. Here's the latest on the 2012 club via Joel Sherman of the New York Post…
- Yankees officials say Michael Pineda is a hard worker and his teammates say he's mixing in well, Sherman reports. There's been some concern about Pineda's velocity and conditioning this spring, but Sherman points out that it's wise to avoid definitive statements based on Spring Training information.
- The Yankees say they aren't worried about Raul Ibanez's spring struggles, Sherman tweets. Ibanez has been facing more left-handed pitching than he will during the regular season.
- The Yankees offered Dontrelle Willis a minor league deal this offseason, Sherman tweets. The Yankees might look into signing Willis, who was released by the Phillies this morning.

Blue Jays, Mariners Talked Pineda For Lawrie Swap
Alex Anthopoulos hinted last night that some young Blue Jays drew trade interest this offseason, and Jeff Blair of the Globe and Mail has the details on some talks that never materialized. The Blue Jays and Mariners discussed Michael Pineda, but the Blue Jays balked when the Mariners wanted Brett Lawrie in return for the right-hander, according to Blair's sources.
Instead, the Yankees obtained Pineda for Jesus Montero last month and the Blue Jays held onto Lawrie. The 22-year-old British Columbia native made his MLB debut in 2011, posting a .293/.373/.580 line in 171 plate appearances. Mariners GM Jack Zduriencik selected Lawrie in the first round of the 2008 draft when he was Milwaukee's scouting director. Meanwhile, Pineda posted a 3.74 ERA with 9.1 K/9 and 2.9 BB/9 in 171 innings as a rookie last year.

Mariners, Yankees Swap Pineda For Montero
The Mariners needed hitting, the Yankees needed pitching. The two teams addressed each other's needs in a blockbuster trade of young stars, as right-handers Michael Pineda and Jose Campos will go to the Bronx in exchange for catcher/DH Jesus Montero and righty Hector Noesi. Both teams confirmed the trade this afternoon.
The Yankees re-signed C.C. Sabathia and Freddy Garcia this winter, but those moves amounted to just standing pat with a rotation that (after Sabathia) contained several question marks. In Pineda, however, the Yankees now have one of the top young arms in the game and one who has already showed he can perform at the Major League level. Pineda (pictured) posted a 3.74 ERA, a 3.15 K/BB ratio and a 9.1 K/9 rate in 28 starts last season, earning an All-Star appearance and a fifth-place finish in the AL Rookie Of The Year vote. Pineda recently turned 23 and is under club control through 2016.
Campos, 19, is another intriguing young arm. John Sickels of Minor League Ball ranked Campos as the fifth-best prospect in Seattle's system going into 2012, noting that while Campos' secondary pitches need some polish, "his upside is very high, he throws hard, and already throws strikes." Campos is coming off a dominant campaign in low Class-A ball in 2011, posting a 2.32 ERA and a whopping 6.54 K/BB in 14 starts. Joel Sherman of the New York Post hears from an NL executive that if Campos was in this year's amateur draft, "he is [a] no-doubt top-10 pick" (Twitter link).
Montero was a top-four prospect in both 2010 and 2011 according to Baseball America and the 22-year-old showed why when he posted a .996 OPS in 69 September plate appearances. Montero was drafted as a catcher but questions about his defensive capabilities had several pundits projecting his long-term future to be at designated hitter or first base. In New York, these spots will be blocked by Mark Teixeira and Alex Rodriguez for the next several seasons, but the bat-starved Mariners have plenty of room in the lineup. Montero immediately projects as Seattle's probable #3 hitter, splitting time between DH and catcher, and it's easy to see Montero hitting behind Dustin Ackley for years to come.
Montero was very nearly a Mariner in July 2010, as he headlined a prospect package the Yankees were ready to send to Seattle for Cliff Lee. The M's, however, pulled out of that trade and ended up dealing Lee to the Rangers. Yankees management was reportedly upset that the Mariners pulled out of the deal at the last minute, but whatever hard feelings existed between the two clubs clearly weren't enough to keep them from doing business 18 months later.
Noesi appeared in 30 games for New York last season (two of them starts), posting a 4.47 ERA and a 2.05 K/BB ratio. Noesi turns 25 later this month and amassed impressive numbers over six seasons in the Yankee farm system. Noesi should get a shot at filling Pineda's rotation spot in Seattle and could blossom at pitcher-friendly Safeco Field.
Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com was the first to announce the trade as official, with MLB.com's Greg Johns adding Campos and Noesi's involvement. ESPN's Jerry Crasnick first heard of a "significant trade" involving a "young impact hitter" coming to the Mariners earlier today, and Larry Stone of the Seattle Times was the first to cite Pineda and Montero in the deal, as he had heard "rumblings in that direction."

AL East Notes: Yankees, Pineda, Red Sox, Rays
We've already rounded up some Orioles and Red Sox items this morning, but those aren't the only updates out of the AL East. Here are a few more:
- Chad Jennings of The Journal News shares some final thoughts on the Yankees' eventful week, noting that the team feels Jesus Montero's potential is easier to replace than Michael Pineda's.
- GM Brian Cashman tells Jim Bowden of MLB Network Radio on SiriusXM that the Yankees will have made a mistake if Pineda never develops into a #1 starter (Twitter link).
- The Red Sox shouldn't feel pressured to answer the Yankees' pitching acquisitions immediately, says Brian MacPherson of the Providence Journal, arguing that plenty of new trade candidates could emerge by July's trade deadline.
- Although the Rays continue to explore adding another bat, they may not move forward until they see how arbitration figures look for David Price and B.J. Upton, writes Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times.
- Stephen Nohlgren of the Tampa Bay Times proposes what he believes could be a win-win solution for Tampa and St. Petersburg, regarding the Rays' stadium situation.

Olney's Latest: Montero, Cespedes, Indians
Last night's news was highlighted by the Yankees' signing of Hiroki Kuroda and the four-player trade that sent Jesus Montero and Hector Noesi to the Mariners in exchange for Michael Pineda and Jose Campos. ESPN's Buster Olney tweets that it might not be until next week that the trade is announced (as teams wait for completion of physicals), and opines that it may be the Blue Jays who are hurt most by this trade, as their rotation once again looks too thin to compete in the AL East. Here's a look at the highlights from Olney's latest blog (ESPN Insider required)…
- Both the Yankees and Mariners believe that Montero will be able to stick at catcher, which many in the industry feel is a must in order for the trade to make sense for Seattle.
- One executive posed the question: "Why is Yoenis Cespedes playing in any Winter ball games?" Olney says Cespedes' first few games have looked rough, as he hasn't played for a long time. With questions about his ability to pick up a breaking ball, he could potentially hurt his value with a poor showing, and doesn't stand to gain much if he plays well.
- The Indians seem to be in position to land a good first baseman, writes Olney. Casey Kotchman, Carlos Pena, and Derrek Lee all remain unsigned, and if the Nationals sign Prince Fielder, Adam LaRoche will become available as well. Olney points out that all four are regarded as good fielders, which is crucial to Cleveland's groundball staff (Justin Masterson, Derek Lowe, and Fausto Carmona are all extreme groundball pitchers). Olney writes that there were indications earlier this offseason that Lee did not want to play for the Tribe.
- With the Diamondbacks showing interest in Bartolo Colon, GM Kevin Towers, who spent a year working for the Yankees, will "presumably get an honest read about what [the Yankees] feel Colon could contribute."

Analysis And Background Of The Montero/Pineda Deal
It's not every day that two of baseball's best young stars are swapped for each other, but the Mariners and Yankees pulled off just such a deal today, as Jesus Montero and Hector Noesi went to Seattle in exchange for Michael Pineda and Jose Campos. Here is some of the early reaction to this stunning trade, plus some information on how the deal came together…
- "The risk for both clubs is low. The reward for both clubs is outstanding. This could be a transformational deal that will have fans of both clubs buzzing about for a long time," writes MLB.com's Bernie Pleskoff.
- Replacing pitching via minor leaguers or the free agent market is far easier than attracting top-caliber hitters in Seattle, notes MLB.com's Greg Johns.
- Mike Salk of ESPN 710 Radio in Seattle outlines the reasons why he "loves" the deal for the Mariners. Also from Salk (on Twitter), he hears from "a non-M's baseball guy" who believes Noesi is a better long-term option than Pineda.
- The trade makes the Yankees the favorites in the AL East, writes Scott Miller of CBSSports.com. Miller talks to two scouts who rave about the Yankees' sudden surplus of young pitching that also includes Dellin Betances and Manny Banuelos.
- Dave Cameron of the U.S.S. Mariner blog sees Montero as developing into a Carlos Lee-type of hitter who is productive but not quite a superstar. Cameron thinks the deal will look better for the Mariners if they were to sign a free agent starter like Roy Oswalt or Edwin Jackson, since then the team would have Montero's bat plus a pitcher that could match Pineda's production.
- Yankees GM Brian Cashman feels he took a "huge risk" with the trade, reports The Record's Bob Klapisch (via Twitter). "I gave up a ton (for Pineda)," Cashman said. "To me, Montero is Mike Piazza. He's Miguel Cabrera."
- "Some execs from other AL East teams believe Yankees just made an incredible trade," tweets ESPN's Buster Olney.
- The two teams were "talking for weeks" about the deal, reports Joel Sherman of the New York Post (Twitter link). Each side told the other that they had limited funds to address their needs.
- The Yankees initially tried to acquire Felix Hernandez from the Mariners, reports Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com (via Twitter) and were willing to offer a package that included Montero, Betances, Banuelos and more.

The possibility of increasing the state's gas tax has become a perennial issue for our legislature, but so far, remains a dormant idea.
For some lawmakers, the possibility of adding more cost to traveling our roads is a non-starter. The argument has been framed around how an increase would put an added burden on families and small businesses. Additionally, any vote for a tax increase may deny a lawmaker re-election as it would inevitably be used by political opponents. However, a state panel has indicated that the state will require $29 billion in additional revenue over the next 20 years to address problems with our roads, highways and bridges. The best option to fill that need appears to be increasing the gas tax, if only be a penny or so.
According to the S.C. Chamber of Commerce, a penny increase in the fee would bring in about $25 million in revenue to the state.
A recent analysis by the S.C. Department of Transportation showed that the state would need $48.3 billion through 2033 to upgrade our highways to a condition of "good," but only $19 billion in existing revenue streams exist.
Our state's infrastructure is critical when it comes to economic development as well as the quality of life for residents.
South Carolina's roads are in dire need of repair, and although maintaining roads is a core function of government, that role has not been adequately fulfilled.
The state has the fourth-largest network of state-maintained roads in the nation, but it also has one of the nation's lowest gasoline taxes, a much-needed resource to maintain our infrastructure requirements. It's obvious our state has a strong aversion to tax increases – evident by the fact our legislature hasn't increased the gas tax in 25 years. If anything, our state has enthusiastically pursued tax cuts, even in lean times.
While the legislature should be commended for not choking residents on our own tax bills, this mentality has certainly hampered our ability to improve or even maintain our state's infrastructure. There are states that have decided to pay for roads by taking away from other services such as education. That would be unwise.
South Carolina needs to use an appropriate funding source to fix issues such as pot holes, ragged edges and faint lines that plague our roads. The gas tax is a reasonable avenue. It may also help to encourage more drivers to car pool, fostering a more environmentally friendly commute to work.
Additionally, a maintenance plan – outlining exactly where the money would be used – needs to be orchestrated by the legislature in coordination with the state's transportation department.
The gasoline tax is not a panacea. However, it needs to be part of a larger, comprehensive plan that helps to ensure our roads are adequately maintained.
While our residents don't need to be cash crunched, maintaining our roads is vital to our state's future and should have a positive impact moving forward.

Television shows like, "Dancing with the Stars'' and "So You Think You Can Dance'' are wildly popular and have contributed to a renewed interest in the glamourous art (skill? sport?) of ballroom dancing, but those high-energy, competitive programs or a movie like "Dirty Dancing'' can also intimidate people and keep them glued to the couch.

Yet when the Federal Reserve meets this week, few foresee any major policy changes. The Fed is expected to complete a bond-buying program, which was intended to keep long-term interest rates low. And, to support the economy, it will likely reiterate it's in no rush to raise its key short-term rate.

The incoming president of the National Civil Rights Museum remembers a quick and hurried visit to the museum shortly after the debut of an extensive renovation earlier this year.

Less conspicuous but still easy to find is evidence of perhaps a more influential trend – how the city is moving toward what might be called a "Lead Local" preference based on some recent changes in leadership of some of the city's most important institutions.
Barbara Daush, president of St. Agnes Academy and St. Dominic School, has recently been named chairwoman of the Southern Association of Independent Schools.

Chicago, which fell behind 3-0 in Monday night's opener before winning 9-6, trailed 2-0 after one inning Tuesday in the matchup of division leaders. Wise, designated for assignment by the Yankees in July, had four singles from the leadoff spot and has played well while filling in for the injured Alejandro De Aza. With the game tied 2-2, the White Sox loaded the bases in the fifth inning on Alexei Ramirez's double, a walk and single by Wise.

Yay! Now if I can just get my version without
that garbage Tim McGraw on it, I'd be set!
Unfortunately, that crap is true!

Hi Sascha,
I tested 7.x.1.x dev version of user relationships. And didnt find any bug .There were some bugs but they were related to the invite module itself.
Also, most of the issues in the queue are fixed.
So,what's preventing from having stable release /alpha release of this module?
And if there is something, how can I help?
Comment #1Berdir CreditAttribution: Berdir commented
|Roadmap to 7.x-1.0
|» Roadmap to 7.x-1.0-alpha1 and beyond
This is a good question. Let's make this is a roadmap issue.
There are some refactorings which I'd like to see done before a first alpha release.
-#728552: Send private message to all friends
-#990422: Move root module to main directory for D7 port
-#1103978: Move admin UI to user_relationships module
Actually, it's really only the second one but the first has a patch that should be almost ready and would be rather hard to re-roll.
So you can help by testing the patch there and then we can continue with the second one.
Second, for the beta, I plan to focus on UI/Permissions improvements, I've created a few issues to investigate, I'm sure there will be more:
- #1099394: Revisit usage of vertical_tabs in relationship type form
- #1099398: Use #states system to simplify relationship type form
- #1099406: Convert role permissions settings into permissions
- #1051812: Views integration: Display username/realname for "Requestee user" and "Requester user" fields
- #1102470: Clickable and sortable column headers for the relationship tables
- #1102472: Make local tasks on /relationships pages configurable
- #1102490: Improve display of user pictures
- #1102476: Revamp relationship listings
- #1103458: Remove columns from relationship type list
- #1104598: Rethink Permissions and Visibility of relationships
- #1108512: Private message integration: Create permission for each relationship type
- #1108520: Private message integration: Sending to one-way relationship types (differentiate between relationship direction)
- #1116010: Add UR elaborations permissions
- #1115998: Revamp core and UI permissions
- #1115956: Revamp relationship type name display
Third, an RC, which focuses on fixing bugs (Bugs should be in every phase, obviously) and freeze the UI, API and texts as far as possible.
At last, if there are no important bugs remaining, we can go stable.
Additionally, all bugs should be fixed before a stable version, but these are not specifically tracked here, see http://drupal.org/project/issues/user_relationships?categories=bug&versi... for a list of all open bugs.
As always, please do not post here about bugs, features you'd like to see and so on. Create separate issues or use already existing ones.

Some of the outstanding issues are pretty big and there might be an opportunity to get out a scaled back 1.0 release candidate out soon.
A stable 1.0 for 7 with feature parity to 6.x-1.0 seems very close.
Any thoughts?

Comment #9mrf CreditAttribution: mrf commented
Went through an tagged a few more open bugs that seem problematic enough to prevent a stable release.
Comment #10Berdir CreditAttribution: Berdir commented
While the permissions related stuff could probably wait, for example the i18n integration currently does not work at all and requires major cod and UI changes (to get UX features like the translate tab on relationship type forms) which can't be done in a stable version.
I'm trying to get push this forward again, so we'll hopefully see some progress for this soon.
The thing is, I try to be very strict regarding stable branches (no UI/API/text changes, following core standards) so I don't want to release something that I don't consider stable.
Comment #11mrf CreditAttribution: mrf commented
If we are aiming for something that is feature stable for the 1.0 then I say we should definitely squeeze in what we can now and not scale back too much.
I just had assumed the module would be following the typical contrib path of playing fast and loose with new features, but I'm all for introducing a little more predictability into that process here.
Comment #12JohnnyX CreditAttribution: JohnnyX commented
Maybe user relationship should me more like G+ circles and allow user created friend lists?
Comment #13sw3b CreditAttribution: sw3b commented
Be like G+, No ! Because my client does not like this feature but have the abbility to do it... yes why not ! Having it like an option could be an idea...
Comment #14mrf CreditAttribution: mrf commented
See #950260: UR LISTS created by end-users for a very extensive discussion about creating lists of relationships. When it comes down to it circles really are just a list with a fancy UI and an implied relationship.
We won't be doing anything along those lines as part of the move to a stable version for 7 however, so please leave any discussion of new features to the appropriate place.
Comment #15freuma CreditAttribution: freuma commented

After activate the user relationships module with the services module enabled, it show that the relationships_user_services are enabled but in the resources configuration does not appear any operations about the user relationships and in the documentation there is no information about how to call them.
If the services enpoint is for example: www.drupal.org/api and I call www.drupal.org/api/user/{uid}/relationships it gives me a 404 response.
Any help would be very appreciated.
Thanks in advance and keep the nice work ;)

Comment #17ashi anand CreditAttribution: ashi anand commented
I had a couple of questions:
(a) It's been a year since the last comment on the roadmap to drupal 7. By when is the stable version expected to be released?
(b) Is the 7.x-1.0-alpha5 release stable enough to implement on a live site?

Some sunscreens are designed to remain at their original strength for up to 3 years. They may include an expiration date, indicating a date when they are no longer effective.

Oh yeah, just figured out i got the game on fox........sawwweeeeeet!!!
LOL I love this. Hopefully we save some tomorrow, it seems like whenever we have an explosion like this the next game we score 2 runs at best.
Wandy is probably done soon! Cards lose again, we need to get up 3.5 games!
If only this game was on FS Ohio. Thom would be crapping his pants right now.
Choo got it, dude.
Latos should cruise from here
I'm getting the Cubs at San Francisco on FOX. Obviously that is more of a local game for me here in Alabama than one being played in Houston. SMH.

When was the last time we had a big lead early in a game? This is nice.

I purchased No. 115, a nice lite shimmering pink. I'm happy because it looks like a gloss, but stays on, & the color is true to the packaging. CON: it is a bit sticky, especially in the wind when hair sticks, but it IS a gloss!
Then I had a makeover today & came out with a whole new look for day & evening. I discovered that I was wearing the wrong makeup colors, thinking I was cool when I actually am warm, so the pink has to go. The aesthetician used mainly Mirabella cosmetics, and I loved them all. Wish I could find a review before I make a big purchase changing my foundation, eyes, lips, cheeks, etc. Anyone?

Pretty good lipgloss! I have it in Bloom and Sangria. I like both colors a lot. Ideally it would have a better flavor and less glitter, but it shows up more subtle on your lips than it looks in the tube. I'm a fan!

I wanted a lip gloss that stayed put for more than five minutes, and this does the trick. It is a bit sticky though, which only bothers me when I am outside and the wind blows my hair into my face. But it's a nice little lip gloss that stays for a while.

I bought this lip gloss in Dulce De Leche #825 because some makeup expert said he goes to this for EVERYONE'S skin, from light to dark. The smell is okay, not great. You can use it as a stand alone product during the day (I can see this shade being flattering on almost anyone - it is a shimmery beige). Also, I like wearing this lip gloss over something - whether it is lipstick or lipstain. Currently I am using some CoverGirl Lipstains or Sephora Lush Flush. If your lipstick is too bright, it will tone the color down, but it gives your lips a glittery, almost frosty look so I tend to layer it at night.
What I like about it is staying power. Okay, maybe not 6 hours or whatever, but you know how bad normal lipgloss is - does it even make it thru one hour? It's about $10 but wait for a BOGO deal. BTW, thanks MUA reviewers for the tip about the mirror! I never even knew about that - I peeled the plastic sticker off the top and the cap is a tiny mirror. But you can only use it to check your application, not apply the product. Some people have complained about stickiness, but I do not find this overly sticky.

I love the infallible lip glosses! I have bloom, and I am purchasing more soon. I wrote a review on bloom as well. These are HG for me. They are the perfect gloss that you don't have to keep re-applying. I am more of a gloss person than a lipstick person. The glosses are priced pretty good, considering the texture and feel is very similar to the stila liplazes, and they last just as long. I only have to reapply this after eating. I like to pair this with a longlasting lipliner, so some color is still there in between applications. It does not stay on as long as marketed, but they do last very long compared to regular lip glosses. They are sticky/tacky, that's what makes them last, but a little tip, don't press your lips together until it is 'set' just wait a few minutes for it to set onto your lips, it won't be as tacky later on as when you first put it on. I only gave this 4 lippies because the color range could be better, such a shame cause these are awesome! I also love to pat pigments on top of mine to change the color, they stay on your lips pretty much all day with the infallible gloss underneath!

I loved how this looked and how it lasted, but it seemed to make my lips feel burny and chapped. I would wake up the next day with a rash around my lips, too. I regretfully threw mine away.

I really only use this over lipliner of various shades depending on my mood. I use mostly Bloom over Cliniques Lipliner in Tender Taupe, and it gives a nice, 'pink chocolate' effect that really lasts. I just vary how deep the lipliner color is to determine how deep I want the overall effect to be. My preference is to apply the lipliner, then run my finger over it to soften it and lighten it up a little, then apply the gloss. I hated all of the long-lasting lipsticks, blech!! But this, works really well at lasting without being drying AT ALL. One BIG NOTE OF ADVICE: I had the same problem with it transferring on my teeth, so what I do is this: Immediately after applying, I put a light coating of vaseline on my thumb joint down at the base of my hand and up the thumb itself, then pop that in my mouth and pull it out over the slightly closed lips a few times until no more color comes off. Learned this trick from Heidi Klum!! It really works! The vaseline creates a barrier from the color to your teeth. I know it sounds a little gross, but, hey, if it works.....!!

This stuff stayed on pretty good. I had the color Bloom. My bff searched high and low for it, and found the very last one stashed. I loved the color, and the consistency wasn't too bad. I've never had this problem before, so I know it's not my application - but the lipgloss KEPT sticking to my teeth. So needless to say, I didn't appreciate pink teeth, and I am no longer using this lip gloss :(

i needed a couple of glosses before going out of town...and i went to the makeup aisle in my local drugstore. i picked up 3 of these glosses. i loved a dark pink one...forgot the name...:(
they claim that there is a mirror on the top of the gloss...i cant see it...its too frosty.
after a few uses, the consistency of the gloss gets sticky....hated that..
also the applicator...it was so annoying...

Well, almost.It's September 7, 2012. The Yankees are in a flat-footed tie with the Baltimore Orioles. A tie that feels more like a 5-game deficit, one the Yankees cannot overcome. This team is on life-support. It's nearly time to perform their last rites.Don't call me a pessimist. I am NOT a pessimist. I am a REALIST. The Yankees ARE not getting it done and they WILL not get it done. Here's why:1) The pitching stinks. The starters are a mess. CC Sabathia has not distinguished himself this season. Hiroki Kuroda has fallen off the pace. I need not mention the rest of the rotation, and don't even get me started on the bullpen. Counting on David Aardsma? His rehab start last night was less than effective. Andy Pettitte? Who's to say he'll be Andy Pettitte if and when he finally returns?2) The offense is isn't built for the stretch run, let alone the playoffs. You CANNOT depend on the home-run this time of year, but the Yankees are not adept at manufacturing runs. They're making it soun...
