Whether it's a short story, a product catalog, a technical manual, or a business report, every document needs a compelling format. Although the content and the length may differ, long documents have similar formatting challenges. In Word 2007: Formatting Long Documents, David Rivers uses his 20 years of training expertise to demonstrate efficient methods of formatting entire documents and making changes to specific sections and pages. He covers the details of how to use field codes and building blocks to streamline the workflow, and shares best practices for producing printed documents with a professional look. Exercise files accompany the course.
One of my favorite views for working with long documents in Word 2007 is Outline View. Outline View allows you to expand and collapse portions of your document to stay focused, but also get a good feel for the structure of that document, even manipulate it. We are going to continue to use our Humbugs of the World document by P.T. Barnum here, but if you have been following along with me in previous lessons, you may notice that this version has a little bit of formatting. Outline View makes you sub-headings and sub-headings. So those have been applied to this version of the document. If you have got the Exercise Files and you want to follow along, go to the Chapter 2 folder and open up PTBarnum2b and you will see what I see.
Next we are going to switch to Outline View. By going up to the View tab on the Ribbon, we can go to the Document View section and click on Outline. When I do this, you will notice that I have got the various Level 1 headings showing up here. I have got five of them, The Humbugs of the World, Publisher's Note, Introduction, Contents and down below Humbugs of the World again. Each have plus signs next to them indicating that I can expand these parts of the document. I have also got Outline tools to help me do that. Now your settings may differ from mine, it depends if you have used Outline View before and if you have, what settings you actually used last. So over here, for example, Show Text Formatting is selected. I'm seeing the formatting for those Level 1 headings. Down below I could choose to show the First Line Only to give a portion of the document. We will talk about that in a minute.
Up here where it says Show Level, I'm seeing all of the Level 1 headings and that's it. Now if I want to see the Level 1 and Level 2 headings, I can click this dropdown and go down to Level 2. Now you will notice that I see the Level 2 headings under those Level 1 headings, if they exist. Look under Humbugs of the World down here, here is where all my chapters are. So if I wanted to stay focused on a chapter and only work on Chapter II, for example, I could go to Chapter II and expand it. There is a couple of different ways to expand a heading.
I can click on Chapter II and go up to my Outline tools, you will notice I have got a plus and a minus sign here for expanding and collapsing. Each of them also has their own shortcut keys. To expand, Alt+Shift and the Plus sign will do it. To collapse a section that's been expanded, Alt+Shift and the Underscore character will do that as well. Right now, it's already collapsed, so I'm going to click the Plus sign to expand Chapter II. This is great, if I just want to focus in on Chapter II and work on it, I can click in here and start typing, deleting, formatting, even if I wanted to. When I'm done, I can collapse that section. Again by going up to my Outline tools, I could click on the minus sign. So long as I'm in this section I'm going to click on Chapter II, or here is another shortcut, just double-click the plus sign. If it's already expanded, it will be collapsed. If it's already collapsed, double-clicking will expand it.
So I'm going to collapse it just like so, and I'm going to go up here to Humbugs of the World and do the exact same thing. I'm going to double-click its plus sign to collapse it or expand it. Of course, I can always go to my Outline tools. If I only want to see the Level 1s again, that's what I select. That's all I'm going to see for that section. I'll go right up to the top here where it says The Humbugs of the World and choose Level 1 there as well. I'm going to lose the Level 2 heading, double- clicking expands, double-clicking collapses.
You have got lots of options for zeroing in on a specific portion of your document, but not only that, you have also got the ability to get a good feel for the structure of your document. If you need to, you can manipulate that structure. So let's go down to our Humbugs of the World at the bottom and double-click the plus sign here to expand that. Now let's say, for example, Personal Reminiscences here should be a Level 1, not a Level 2 heading. Clicking anywhere in it, notice up here under Outline tools that I have got a Level 2 heading showing up. That means that the current level is set to Level 2. But if I want to promote that, I can promote it by clicking the Left Arrow. Alt+Shift and the Left Cursor key on your keyboard is the shortcut. Now if I go to the double- arrows here, I'm going to promote right to Heading 1, no matter what it is. If it's a Level 4 heading, it's going to right to number 1.
So either of these will do the exact same thing. I'm going to click the double-arrows and it becomes a Level 1 heading, just like that, perfect, and now I have got the chapters as sub- headings down below. I'm going to double-click the plus sign next to new Level 1 heading here to collapse it. I'm going to double-click Humbugs of the World as well to collapse it. Now I have got that extra Level 1 heading. Now let's go to our double-click here on the plus sign next to Personal Reminiscences and I'm going to click anywhere in Personal Reminiscences here to go up to my dropdown next to Show Level and say I only want to see Levels 1 and 2 by selecting Level 2.
Here is where I can come in and actually start manipulating the structure. So for example, if my chapters were out of order, I could re-order them. So if I click on a plus sign, you will notice just once, the entire chapter is selected. Now if I move over to the plus sign and see that four-sided arrow meaning I can click-and-drag this. So if I want to change its location, I could do that, but I have also got the ability up here to move items up or down the list as well. Clicking the Down Arrow is going to move Chapter II past my Chapter IV. So the clicking-and-dragging had an effect. I'm going to go up here to Chapter IV now and move it down twice by clicking the Down Arrow twice and things are back in order. There's I, II, III, IV and V.
So it's a great way to not only get a feel for the structure of your document but have the ability to manipulate that structure as well. If I double-click Personal Reminiscences, I can do the exact same thing. Double-click again to collapse it. If I wanted to, I could click-and-drag it to move it around or use my arrows to move it up or back down where it belongs. All right, I'm going to go back up here to Humbugs of the World and change this to Level 1. Everything has collapsed. If I'm done, I can close my Outline View by going up here to Close Outline View.
Just before we do that, you may have noticed so that there is another check box here to Show Text Formatting. Currently, I'm seeing the formatting that comes with a Level 1 heading and a Level 2 heading. I'm not interested in that, just the content. I can de-select that check box. It allows me to see a little bit more text and not worry about the actual formatting of that text, rather just focus on structure of my outline. I am going to go back to show that text formatting. I like it. Let's close our Outline View by clicking the Close button. We return back to our Print Layout View.
Here we are on page 1. That's where our flashing cursor was in Outline View. So that's where we go when we return to our Print Layout View.

WASHINGTON—Intelligence reports on the whereabouts of Osama bin Laden are drying up, the Pentagon said Monday, as Afghan militia fighters went cave to cave in search of the terrorist leader and what remains of his largely defeated Al Qaeda fighters in Tora Bora.
Though the lack of current evidence placing Bin Laden in the Tora Bora region of eastern Afghanistan doesn't necessarily mean he has escaped, a top U.S. military official said, Bin Laden's whereabouts are "anybody's guess."
Taliban forces, backed by U.S. troops, to search the cave networks and chase fleeing Al Qaeda fighters. Pockets of resistance remained, and Pentagon officials warned that that will continue.
Meanwhile, hopes were rising that another missing target of U.S. and anti-Taliban forces might have been located near Kandahar in southern Afghanistan. Pushtun forces reportedly are preparing to attack a mountain redoubt where former Taliban leader Mullah Mohammed Omar is believed to be hiding.
After saying for days that it had no idea where Omar might have gone after the Taliban lost its grip on Kandahar on Dec. 7, the new government there said Monday that it believes that he has taken refuge about 100 miles to the northwest, with 400 to 500 supporters.
Haji Gulalai, the intelligence chief appointed by Kandahar Gov. Gul Agha Shirzai, told reporters that Shirzai intends to send his forces to find Omar and his followers, but he gave no specifics.
"We confirm this news," Gulalai said. "This is based on information we are getting from our spy network."
Gulalai said Omar is believed to be in Baghran, in the extreme north of Helmand province, home to a number of caves in which the former Taliban leader might hide.
Helmand is a desolate and sparsely populated province just west of Kandahar. Many Taliban sympathizers are thought to remain there, despite the collapse of the movement throughout the country in the last month.
As resistance to the U.S.-led campaign in Afghanistan faded, Britain said Monday that peacekeeping troops could be in the country by this weekend. Prime Minister Tony Blair said Britain will contribute as many as 1,500 troops to the multinational force, which he expects to be on the ground for "several months" under British leadership.
At the Pentagon, Rear Adm. John D. Stufflebeem described a slow and methodical search of cave and tunnel complexes in eastern Afghanistan, where Al Qaeda fighters may still be hiding after a two-week siege. Though hundreds reportedly have been killed and some have fled, others might remain, possibly including Bin Laden, he told reporters at a briefing.
At the same time, Stufflebeem said, Afghan and U.S. troops were tracking Al Qaeda forces who are trying to escape south to Pakistan, a difficult and painstaking process he compared to "searching for fleas on a dog."
Stufflebeem, a senior operations officer of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, acknowledged that after believing that they were close to grabbing Bin Laden, U.S. military leaders are now unsure where he is.
Though "a few days ago, we believed he was in that area" based on reports from prisoners and intercepts of radio transmissions, Stufflebeem said, his location now is "anybody's guess" because information is harder to come by.
"The sense we have is that there's been less chatter in the last few days. And that would make sense, because there have been fewer fighters in those caves," he said.
Tora Bora Remains 'Our Top Priority'
Despite the tapering off of U.S. airstrikes, he said, the Tora Bora area remains "our top priority."
Afghan opposition forces have captured increasing numbers of Taliban and Al Qaeda fighters, he said, but he added that so far only five have been turned over to U.S. forces. Those prisoners, who include American John Walker Lindh, have been sent to the amphibious assault ship Peleliu in the Arabian Sea, either for health reasons, for better security or to make it easier to interrogate them.
Stufflebeem said he could not identify the other four men, although he said they are non-Afghans. A Marine spokesman in southern Afghanistan said one is an Australian captured while fighting on the Taliban side.

The National D-Day Memorial is located in Bedford, Virginia — the town that suffered the highest per capita D-Day losses in the nation. The Memorial honors the Allied forces that participated in the invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944 during World War II. With its stylized English Garden, haunting invasion tableau, and striking Victory Plaza, the Memorial stands as a powerful permanent tribute to the valor, fidelity, and sacrifice of D-Day participants.
On June 6, 1944 United States soldiers, in one of the most pivotal battles of World War II, invaded the French coastline in order to propel German soldiers out of Western Europe and lead the way for victory against the tyrants of that era. By day's end, nineteen of the company's Bedford soldiers were dead. Two more Bedford soldiers died later in the Normandy campaign, as did yet another two assigned to other 116th Infantry companies.
Bedford's population in 1944 was about 3,200. Proportionally this community suffered the nation's most severe D-Day losses. Recognizing Bedford as emblematic of all communities, large and small, whose citizen-soldiers served on D-Day, Congress warranted the establishment of the National D-Day Memorial here.

An Exploit In GNOME Shell With Systemd?
new posts
Originally posted by gens View Postyou know..
everything systemd does has been done at least 10 years ago, some things are even a lot older
it's just that for the new generation this all is new (yes, i'm the new generation too)
problem is the flow is going off a cliff
The going off a cliff part is what many (apparently most) intelligent and accomplished Linux developers do not agree with you on. Proponents of other kernels are understandably not as enthusiastic.
Originally posted by JS987 View Postfound article why systemd is broken by design
This is unexpected... Ubuntu switching to SystemD.
EDIT: Looks like someone has made a thread here: http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showt...tch-to-systemd
Ubuntu is going to use systemd too
well fan boys Ubuntu is changing out to systemd as well can any one say some debian TC developers have a conflict of interest
With Bdale Garbee�s casting vote this week, the Debian technical committee finally settled the question of init for both Debian and Ubuntu in favour of systemd.
I�d like to thank the committee for their thoughtful debate under pressure in the fishbowl; it set a high bar for analysis and experience-driven decision making since most members of the committee clearly took time to familiarise themselves with both options. I know the many people who work on Upstart appreciated the high praise for its code quality, rigorous testing and clarity of purpose expressed even by members who voted against it; from my perspective, it has been a pleasure to support the efforts of people who want to create truly great free software, and do it properly. Upstart has served Ubuntu extremely well � it gave us a great competitive advantage at a time when things became very dynamic in the kernel, it�s been very stable (it is after all the init used in both Ubuntu and RHEL 6 and has set a high standard for Canonical-lead software quality of which I am proud.
Nevertheless, the decision is for systemd, and given that Ubuntu is quite centrally a member of the Debian family, that�s a decision we support. I will ask members of the Ubuntu community to help to implement this decision efficiently, bringing systemd into both Debian and Ubuntu safely and expeditiously. It will no doubt take time to achieve the stability and coverage that we enjoy today and in 14.04 LTS with Upstart, but I will ask the Ubuntu tech board (many of whom do not work for Canonical) to review the position and map out appropriate transition plans. We�ll certainly complete work to make the new logind work without systemd as pid 1. I expect they will want to bring systemd into Ubuntu as an option for developers as soon as it is reliably available in Debian, and as our default as soon as it offers a credible quality of service to match the existing init.
Technologies of choice evolve, and our platform evolves both to lead (today our focus is on the cloud and on mobile, and we are quite clearly leading GNU/Linux on both fronts) and to embrace change imposed elsewhere. Init is contentious because it is required for both developers and system administrators to understand its quirks and capabilities. No wonder this was a difficult debate, the consequences for hundreds of thousands of people are very high. From my perspective the fact that good people were clearly split suggests that either option would work perfectly well. I trust the new stewards of pid 1 will take that responsibility as seriously as the Upstart team has done, and be as pleasant to work with. And� onward.
Originally posted by interested View PostThat "article" is hilariously filled with errors, like systemd needs a reboot after an upgrade. Systemd is simply the best designed and executed init-system for Linux by a large margin, which is why distro maintainers and developers who actually knows about such things, are choosing it as their distros init-system.
so - are you dumb or evil?

It looks like this requires physical access to the PC to force a hibernate. Not too serious.

I hear this a lot, that there is a "stereotypical yogi", which is a middle class white girl who loves juice and spin classes, is no bigger than a size 4 and has money to burn.
I read articles where people getting up in arms about yoga advertising, or people saying that they feel they can't go to a specific studio because "hot girls in yoga pants" will be there, etc etc… then you have the whole backlash against it with the #yogaforeverybody or the #thisismyyogabody posts and the yoga war rages on.
I have never practiced yoga for anyone but myself.
When I first started yoga I would walk into the studio with my funky yoga mat and my old navy yoga pants (which I still have) and I never felt judged, because I wasn't there to be judged, I was there to learn what I could from the precious moments that I had with my teacher. That time was precious so I didn't waste it looking to see if I was the minority, I have not noticed how many white girls are in my classes, I do not compared myself or my outfit to other people in the studio. Because I'm busy doing yoga.
I will sometimes get comments when I walk out of a class where another student will come up to me and say "I saw that you really enjoyed your practice, you seemed to get lost in it." or "I saw you smiling in triangle pose, you seemed to be happy to be there". Thank you. I didn't notice that I was doing those things or that you saw me, I am just happy to be on my mat, and yes I do get lost in my breath and in my focus. That's Yoga. Everything else can fall away. The purpose of the yoga asana practice is to clear the mind and prepare you for meditation, it's not to count how many ethnicities are in the room, or to figure out if anyone has the latest pair of Lulus on.
It baffles me when someone comes out of class and says "ugh that girl next to me was so annoying she had a loud breath the whole time and I couldn't focus" You ma'am, have just wasted an hour where you could have gotten out of your own head and had a moving meditation on your mat but, instead you focused on the external and let it get in the way of your practice.
I'm not saying there aren't times when it is distracting that the person next to you pulls out their phone to text, or they smell like they rode their bike from burning man straight to the studio, but all of that is part of your practice. Can you still focus? Can you still invest in yourself and act according to what you know is right for your practice? or are you consistently pulled out of your inner focus and using external circumstance as an excuse for why you weren't able to accomplish what you came to your mat to do.
"Yoga is so expensive it's for the upper class" No, Yoga is free. I had a home practice for a year before I set foot into a studio. I have a free 8 week course on youtube for beginners, Kino Macgregor has an amazing cache of free yoga wisdom up there! There are endless resources online for free, yoga is not about going to a studio, yoga is about you and your commitment to yourself. The end.
My thighs touch, I have breasts that prevent me from peacock pose, I love chicken, but in-spite of all of these things, I love yoga. And so I do my practice regardless of who or what is in the room with me, whether I'm teaching or practicing.
Yoga has never been about who's in the room. Are you in the room? did you bring your brain with you? good, now train it to be still and focus internally and perhaps you'll learn some truths about yourself and be able to take that knowledge with you off of your mat and create change for the better, internally first, and then externally. That's yoga.
If it's important to you, you'll find a way. If not, you'll find an excuse.

Ryan Clark: I'd Retire Before Playing For A London Team
The Steelers will play in London on Sunday, and safety Ryan Clark doesn't have a problem with that. But he'd have a big problem with an NFL franchise relocating to London.
In fact, Clark said on ESPN that if he played for a team that moved to London, that would be the end of his NFL career.
"I'd retire. I'd definitely retire," Clark said.
Clark said he doesn't see how an NFL team in London could compete, and doesn't see why any NFL player would want to play there.

I have a really awesome tan. I am easily amused, seriously I get distracted by shiny things all the time. This section used to be filled with other things about me, but my adventures in editing deemed them all useless. So here we are, you wanting to know more and me awkwardly twiddling my thumbs trying to think of something interesting to say. Only I will fail because I have no clue what you find interesting. So let's just agree that an actual conversation would be better than a self summary, which might accidentally paint a somewhat unrealistic version of myself, replete with swashbuckling and other overtly manly things. Let's face it, while we all enjoy adventure and travel we don't always get after it as much as we should, and I would not want to say that I am much different. I try, but sometimes I just want to lay on the floor of my apartment and read a book.

That won't happen because CryENGINE 3 is DX9/DX11. Crysis 3 is an exception because it only supports DX11 and they're not going to release a DX9 version.
Need to come out with a compatible DX10 GPU capable version or this game will be a bust. Complaints about the DX11 version are all over the place
Posted 28 February 2013 - 20:01
It's just a shame Crytek can't make a quality game. CryEngine3 has so much potential, but we're going to have to wait until a third party company purchases a license for the engine and develops a game that properly utilizes the engine.
Crysis 3 exists for the sole reason the original Crysis existed -- to benchmark your system to see how future proof it is.

I have a follow-up post in this thread (not trying to revive it, honestly - I simply have additional data).
Since my last post in this thread, I've replaced my AMD HD5450 (Mobility part in desktop clothes) with a desktop part in desktop clothes, but of the same age - an nVidia GeForce GTX 550 Ti. (The direct equivalents from AMD are the HD5750 and HD5770.) I changed nothing else. How does it handle Crysis 3? Amazingly well, thanks - 1920x1080, firewalled everything except AA (I'm using 1x MSAA) - basically, I replaced dead hardware with slightly higher-spec but STILL dead hardware. If you have a better GPU than this and are getting crappy performance, then something else is definitely wrong, and more likely than not, it has diddly to do with your GPU or the drivers thereof. (That is, if anything, even MORE likely since I'm running the 320.49 Forceware drivers - which is getting a ton of complaints on the GeForce.com forums - on Windows 8.1 Preview besides.)

External URL Link as Featured Images
The plugin has been updated with an additional option. It allows you to set your post thumbnail (featured image) from an external URL without uploading the image to your WordPress media library.
Note this only works if your theme uses the
get_the_post_thumbnail(); function in its coding. The plugin now has two options:-
- Set featured image from external URL – uses a filter to replace the output of get_the_post_thumbnail (may not work in all themes that write their own function for displaying post thumbnails). The file remains on the external server location.
- Upload image from external URL and set as featured image. This uploads the external image to your media library and attaches it to your post as the featured image (this may be better for display if linking to large images as they will be crunched by the WordPress image crunching routine). The file will be copied and stored on your own server.
Depending on your theme design and image display preference you can choose which one you wish to use through the use of this plugin.
There's one thing that has been bugging me for a while about WordPress and the featured images / post thumbnail functionality. What's that one thing? It's how you cannot easily set a featured image from an external URL.
WordPress only allows you to set the featured image of a post (or custom post / page etc) as an item that is already in your media library. So if you see a cool image that you'd like to use. You have to save it, upload it, then insert it. A bit of a pain to do.
Why don't they allow you to do this? Well because the post thumbnails used by WordPress goes through a fair bit of processing and they display them as 150×150 images (rather than massive 10MB images if you were to simply use an external URL of a large image).
I decided to do something about this. I read through all the WordPress codex and through the "core" code of the popular CMS platform and I have developed a nice and easy plugin that lets you set your posts "featured image" by URL. I thought it would be useful to share. So I've put it up on the store for a nice low price.
Why am I selling this? Well all EPIC plugins are so valuable that they deserve a price tag. This price tag is so low, that's it's almost like saying. Hey Mike that's cool, let me buy you a cup of coffee so you can carry on making these EPIC plugins.
What's a quick cup of coffee in return for something that can save you endless hours of time in your future blogging / website management. I say… priceless!
So How does it work?
- A new meta box is added to your post pages (you can move this anywhere you like)
- Enter the link to the external image you'd like as the featured image (make sure you have permission to use the images)
- Click update
- This prompts WordPress to look at the URL
- If it's an image it will add it to your media library and crunch it
- It will then set the image as your posts featured image
- You'll then feel all EPIC because you've just saved yourself a TON of time
It's really that easy!

I purchased the plugin, can I dowload this updsted version for free?
Will this actually allow me to feature an image hosted on imgur? I mean it's not grabbing an image and adding it to my media library is it? I don't want to pay 10 bucks only to find out it's simply downloading the image and placing it in my media library using my own host.
Reason I ask is because I want to use 5mb gifs as featured images and hosting them on my low end host will not cut it.
Can you let me use paypal? I dont have any CC's
Can I just paypal you the money so I can get to using this plugin?
It is? Where? I dont see a paypal option.
Here is a screenshot of what I see http://prntscr.com/2zdw2c
Am I about to feel really stupid or is it really not there?
Thanks. Just bought it and it works but it does not scale down the images as needed on the index page like it does with standard images. Is there a way we can make it do that to follow suit with the other images?
Nah, I knew I was taking a risk on this plugin and I knew my chances were slim it would work perfectly. It does what it's supposed to do but having to edit code and change themes or upload "smaller" images for 1 plugin is not ethical and a pure waste of time.
The funny thing is, I am using a default wordpress theme too. Twentyfourteen. The featured post images do not show up properly. Have you even tested this?
This plugin will auto upload image from external url to library ?,could i use image from external url as thumb ( for save bandwidth ?),or could you make a plugin like this,i just want to use image from external host like imgur.com,postimage.org,not from my host,for saving hdd and bandwidth..
tks and sr for my bad english
I bought the plugin, I'm using it on my blog. I would just take a doubt, because when I send the link to the social networks, it does not insert the image "feature", but simply a standard image blog, why?
Hi Mike
i have purchased the plugin, but i dont have any download link. can you help me?
Does it work with any post types ?
Hello, I bought the plugin and am using it now, even met all my expectations. But just like some help, as I am to change the template of my blog, but the new, there is the images of features, but the plugin does not work. When I put the URL of the image is not displayed, but when I insert it in the blog is, why? how do I look in the new plugin work? Thank you!
Purchased the external link plugin, no link on the confirmation page and am still waiting for the email… please advise… thanks! Looks like this might be the solution I've been searching for.
I purchased the plugin, i have lost the file. The download link is broken.
I'm thinking of buying this plugin. But my theme has "the_post_thumbnail" function and not "get_the_post_thumbnail". What I need to tweak in my theme? How can I be sure that this plugin will work for me? Can I see any demo of it? I think that answers to these question will help many webmasters to take the right decision.
Hi. I am very interested to purchase your plugin. Is it compatible with StudioPress/Genesis theme? I tried to look for the get_the_post_thumbnail(); function in my StudioPress theme. But since it has so many files and folders in it I am overwhelmed. Where the get_the_post_thumbnail(); function is usually located in a theme? Also, can I use the plugin for images hosted at Amazon S3? Thanks in advance.
Hello Mike,
This plugin is compatible with this theme http://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609 ?
will this plugin allow me to set a external url on the full image on the attachment page? when users click the thumbnail they go to the attachment page where the full image pictures is aka attachment page when they click it i want my affiliate link there. ready to purchase if possible if not can you make it and cost
Before purchasing this plugin, I wounder how would it work with the import process?
For example, I have woocommerce on my website and I'd like to import 20 products with using the CSV format. in my csv i have a column with the image url for each of the products.
Where should I stick this field to during the import, so my images would be shown correctly.
Looking forward to hear from you. Thank you.
1) does it support wp3.9.1?
2) it will hotlink my external hosted image and auto-resized it on my woocommerce product page right?
Do you have plans to come up with Product Gallery external link image plugin too?
Thank you
Link 2 Featured Image plugin today and bought.
Avada 3.4.3 theme to use.
Edit screen, press the Update button, which links the output image does not appear Post screen.
Known solution to this problem would be appreciated.
Hey Mike,
With the "Link 2 Featured Image" plugin work with wootheme or woocommerce.
James M
is there a plugin to create an external url link to a blog post featured image
so i choose the image from the media library but link it to an external url,
I can do this with embedded images but not with the "featured" image which creates
a smaller version of the featured image for the excerpts which is what i want.
currently the featured image link goes to the blog post itself and loads the same image in a lightbox.
I would appreciate if you show me where and how i can keep the
"excerpt" featured image "default" link back to the blog post full page (how it is)
BUT the blog post full page featured image link to external url.
Mmm,i have a question,if i use this plugin now,how about my old posts ? will it work ?,i just use only for popular posts,related post plugin 😀
Hi Mike
the plugin deleted to my mistakes.
The download link (see browser address bar) has expired (it's too old). If you think this reason is in error, please contact the site administrator.
Thank you very much.
Hi, I've got version 1.0, but I believe this is massively outdated. How do I know what the current version is and how do I update?
Hi, i have Pre-sales question.
Is this possible?
Hi Mike
Will the Chrome extension work for custom post types? For example, I have a custom post type named 'Images' and it doesn't require a 'title' and it has custom taxonomies. Will the extension 'load' these custom fields from my custom post type?
Sunny Ujjawal
Two queries:
1. Will it work with Newspaper theme http://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609
(I can provide files to test to your team). Only want to avoid asking for refund if plugin doesn't work with my theme.
2. After adding a featured image will it save a thumbnail image to media library or not?
To save space and bandwidth i don't need featured image on my server at any cost?
I'm just wondering if your plug in will work with the Getty images plug in with an embedded code?
I have a question: I uploaded the files with Filezilla but they are not in the library now. So I would like to use your plugin to set the featured image in pages and posts with the url of the files that I stored with Filezilla. My question is: it is possible to avoid the copy on server of the image. Because in my case it will be a duplicate in the server.
Thank you
I have issues with the plugin I bought yesterday. After installing the featured image was gone and replaced with a non-working 'external featured image' section. Can you help? Thank you!

To my surprise I became interested in learning how to live without using mind-altering substances. After all, I was going nowhere fast. The twelve steps of AA were introduced to me and I found myself wanting to know how members of the fellowship were able to achieve consecutive days of sobriety. The longest I had ever seemed to be able to reach was three days. Finally, there was a light at the end of the tunnel. Visions of happiness, success and freedom from drugs that once controlled me now seemed obtainable. Rehab gave me the basic tools I need to live a sober life.
With my time complete at the Marshak Clinic, the next step was to move into Soba sober living. Sober living is for people who want to continue to stay sober, whether it be after rehab or after sobering up on their own and getting themselves out of their destructive living situation. It is used as an adjustment period, your body is going through a lot of changes, and real life is easily viewed as scary and overwhelming. Anybody can stay clean in rehab. It is the actions you take after that determines the path you are willing to take in your new life.
Soba is more of a sober community then just a sober living house. Many condos make up a tremendous environment to become involved in living a productive life. I interact with people who are here for the same reason; deterring me to hang around people who could imitate my old friends and old behaviors. Most importantly I have a great time living this way. The key to sobriety, for me anyway, is staying involved in Alcoholics Anonymous. Without working the steps and associating myself with its members I would continue to drink my life away.
I have seen first hand what happens to people that start getting away from the program and don't believe they need it anymore. A relapse will shortly follow and they will have to do all the work over again. That is if they even are fortunate enough to make it back to the program. My experience in sober living has been that of which money can't buy. I have a daily routine that works in my life and I rarely have thoughts of drinking and using drugs. If I have a thought it quickly comes and goes. I now use the tools I have learned to stay on track. I tried living my life on my own terms; it didn't work out so well. I am now to a point where I can enjoy myself. I don't want to use anymore, I learned to enjoy my life at its fullest potential. I find now that I can be a responsible person who is accountable for my actions. This is something I once had growing up, but lost somewhere in my using.
On the plane out to California I was told by John, who is now my sponsor, "Just work your program and everything else will fall into place." He is not the only person who has told me that.

Why fit in when you were born to stand out?
I recently moved back to central Mass...I'm probably the most honest person you will ever meet and I have a huge heart. Looking for friends and perhaps that special girl...I still believe she is out there :) I love to make people laugh and I'm very laid back, but I am totally fierce when it comes to pursuing my dreams and goals. My friends say I'm a very fun girl to hang out with...and they are absolutely correct! I'm almost always joking around and being sarcastic, but I also love having deep and intelligent conversations. I exercise regularly and make an effort to eat healthy, but I will eat junk food once in a while and NOT feel bad about it lol...I know who I am and what I want out of life. Now your turn...I would love to meet an awesome, kick-ass girl who knows who she is and isn't afraid to live life to the fullest - sense of adventure is a must, but can also spend a night in just chilling. I'm mostly attracted to femme/sporty girls - you don't have to be super girly, as long as you look like a girl that would be cool lol...obviously physical attraction is important, as is personality. And sorry, but bisexuals need not apply. Now that that's out of the way...my basic philosophy is that life is way too short to take too seriously! I love to laugh, have fun, and live in the moment as much as humanly possible. I love to scuba dive (particularly wreck diving and doing search and recovery operations), metal detect/treasure hunt (actually I combine scuba diving with metal detecting), kayak, play guitar, be outdoors, and I've recently taken up rock climbing again. I love dogs, cats, guinea pigs and pretty much all animals. I'm passionate about my career in IT and I'm branching into network security. I'm very much career-driven, however I constantly remind myself that in the end the only thing you can take with you is love.

The new law extends the statute of limitations for reporting child sex abuse cases from two to seven years.
All centers which receive taxpayer-funded vouchers will have a list of new requirements they must meet.
Children are setting up lemonade stands Saturday in in Indianapolis, Elkhart, Fort Wayne, Lafayette and Bloomington.
The measure would provide at least $10 million in matching grant money for Indiana schools to hire more school resource officers.
An Indiana University study found that children in grades K-5 who watched the most socially aggressive programs often became bullies themselves.
More women than ever are going to prison in Indiana, and because the majority of women serve sentences of between two and 10 years, most of them will get out.
Children who are most likely to be abused by a school employee include girls, especially girls of color whose parents do not speak English.
A court ruling says it's important to take into account the effort a parent makes in protecting children, not just the results.
The department will redirect part of its budget to create two new programs.
The images involve the sexual of abuse of minors ranging in age from two months to four years of age.

Performance problems - FX5600-TX
Greetings all. This is my first post.
My problem is:
demonen@z0rz:~$ ssystem -bench
252.02 frames/sec
demonen@z0rz:~$ glxgears
7376 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1475.200 FPS
8050 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1610.000 FPS
(repeat until insane)
I feel this is WAY too low for my card and my system.
I used to get alot higher scores than this with my old Ti4200 card, but that card actually died from overclocking...
I've had some trouble with /usr/lib/tls/* aswell since the nVidia installer insists on putting stuff there and my 2.4.x kernel does not agree.
I can't run UT2k3/4 while that directory is there, so I've removed it.
demonen@z0rz:~$ uname -a
Linux z0rz.net 2.4.22TheDemmyKernel #2 Sun Dec 7 23:51:36 CET 2003 i686 GNU/Linux
The current nVidia driver is 4349, but that changes every hour or so while I test and prod trying to make it go faster.
Please let me know what logs, config files, command outputs and otherwise abundant information you would want to know in order to help.
Re: Performance problems - FX5600-TX
Maybe putting /usr/lib/tls in /etc/ld.so.conf (ldconfig after) helps you.
And if you want a better performance for the desktop or gaming, you should install an actual 2.6.5 kernel from:
Re: Performance problems - FX5600-TX
Hmm.... it's NORMAL for a brand new (sort of anyway), expencive card to be slower than the previous generation?
Is this a driver issue?
I'd like to upgrade to 2.6.x very much, but I have other considerations on this box than games and desktop horseplay.
All the stuff that were supposed to find /usr/lib/tls/ DID find it, and deemed them "not OpenGL Drivers" or whatnot, so I assume my current Debian dows not support TLS.
Re: Performance problems - FX5600-TX
And when Im right, the XT is a lower/cheaper card of the 5600 serie.
Re: Performance problems - FX5600-TX
Oh well...
Can you recomend me a card that gives more polys/second?
I'm not talking about the hype stuff or the "more bang for the buck" stuff.
I'm talking about an actual card that will give actual performance on my actual system.
As for the 2.4.x stuff: I'm currently rewriting my system tools to respect 2.6.x kernels, but until I have the time to complete my system monitor and other stuff that assumes 2.4.x the upgrade will have to wait.

The tour trailer got right to work this morning at the US Open as Luke Donald's caddie, Johnny McLaren, stopped by to get his bosses entire set of clubs re-gripped. Luke usually gets fresh grips put on his gamers before most big tournaments as was the case earlier in the year at the Player's Championship.

A Behind the Scenes Look at the US Open from the Mizuno PGA Tour Team - Day 1
by Iver Maple on June 14, 2011
Hard to believe that the year's second major is already upon us. Today was a great start to what should be an exciting week of golf and drama!!! The weather was beautiful and many of the 'big' names were on the range and the course getting ready for this years Open. Congressional CC, located in Bethesda, Maryland, looks to be a true test for the world's best golfers. The course is playing exceptionally long and the rough is extremely penal...at least a half stroke penalty if you find yourself veering from the fairway.

Ronny Deila: Celtic are underdogs against Inter
Ronny Deila believes Celtic have to overcome their underdog status if they are to get past Inter Milan in their Europa League clash.
Ronny Deila believes Celtic have to overcome their underdog status if they are to get past Inter Milan in their Europa League clash.
Celtic face an exciting Europa League Round of 32 match with Inter Milan, their first competitive meeting since the semi-final of the European Cup in 1972.
Ronny Deila is looking for Celtic to rid themselves of their Europa League blues when they take on St Mirren on Sunday.
Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino was frustrated by the "laughable" floodlight failures at the Ataturk Olimpiyat Stadium, although he was more annoyed by his players' profligacy in front of goal in their defeat to Besiktas.
Roberto Martinez expects Everton to benefit from the experience gained by the club's brightest young talents in their Europa League defeat by Krasnodar.
Already-qualified Celtic concluded their Europa League Group D campaign with a 4-3 defeat to Dinamo Zagreb in a free-scoring encounter at the Stadion Maksimir.
First the lights went out at the Ataturk Olimpiyat Stadium and then on Tottenham's hopes of topping their Europa League group as Besiktas eked out a hard-fought 1-0 victory.
Everton's young side were unable to maintain the club's unbeaten Europa record this season as Krasnodar chalked up a 1-0 victory at Goodison Park.
Everton's Ivory Coast striker Arouna Kone will play for the first time in over a year when the Premier League club host FC Krasnodar in the Europa League, manager Roberto Martinez said.
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has pledged to fight to make the rest of the season a success after the blow of an early Champions League exit.
Captain Scott Brown and winger James Forrest have been left out of the Celtic squad for the final Europa League Group D game against Dinamo Zagreb in Croatia tomorrow night.
Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino has expressed his "disappointment" at the pitch invasions which leave the London club facing the prospect of UEFA sanctions.
Tottenham face UEFA sanctions after their Europa League tie with Partizan Belgrade was suspended, overshadowing their progress to the knockout stages and the 1-0 victory at White Hart Lane.
Two breakaway goals from Romeleu Lukaku and Kevin Mirallas gave Everton a 2-0 win at Wolfsburg to rubber stamp Roberto Martinez's side's place in the Europa League knockout rounds.
Celtic progress into last 32 of Europa League despite losing 3-1 at home to Group D leaders Red Bull Salzburg.
Inter Milan beat Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk 2-1 to seal top spot in Group F of the Europa League last night, while Estoril's Group E game against PSV Eindhoven was abandoned at half-time due to a waterlogged pitch and will resume this afternoon.
Ronny Deila believes the rigours of the Scottish Premiership stands his Celtic side in good stead for their crucial Europa League clash with Salzburg tomorrow night at Parkhead.
Everton boss Roberto Martinez indicated he believes his side can win the Europa League this season after they moved closer to the knockout rounds with a 3-0 victory over Lille.
Ronny Deila wants his Celtic side to lead from the front with a lot more conviction.
Everton took a major step towards the knockout stages of the Europa League as goals from Leon Osman, Phil Jagielka and Steven Naismith saw them claim a comfortable 3-0 victory over Lille at Goodison Park.

1 carrot, finely chopped
1 stalk celery, finely chopped
1 whole dried hot red pepper

From restaurants to retail, loyalty programs to motivate customers to return to a business are commonplace.
Jim Daleen, CEO of loyalty mobile app provider AppSuite, says there is a reason for that: focusing on current customers is a more efficient way to drive revenue. The Center for Retail Management at Northwestern University revealed that about 12 to 15 percent of a company's most loyal customers contribute 55 to 70 percent of total sales.
"Restaurants spend much of their marketing budget on finding new customers. Engaging the current customer is essential to maximizing revenue opportunities in this hyper-competitive marketplace," Daleen said.
He provides three tips on how to get your customers to become loyalty members:
1. Call to action: Give your customers a special offer to compel them to sign up on the spot during a service. This offer should be something they can use immediately on their current visit such as a free appetizer or free dessert, or a $5 discount on their next purchase. A typical loyal customer will spend about $10,000 over 5 years, the average life of a loyal customer. A $5 to $10 offer is an investment you won't regret to get a customer on a path to being one of your $10,000 fans, Daleen said.
2. Technology = simplicity: Joining a mobile-based loyalty and rewards program is simple - no punch cards, no swipe cards; your rewards are available 24/7/365 in your pocket. Customers simply spend money and earn valuable rewards.
3. Get personal: It's not just about points or giveaways. As a member of a sophisticated loyalty program, customers can be afforded personalized and special benefits based on things such as lifetime spending amounts, birthdays, anniversaries, and milestones in rewards levels. Providing a loyal customer special privileges and benefits isn't costly but is very important to them. All customers want to be appreciated, recognized and rewarded for their loyalty. If a customer understands what being a member of a great loyalty program means to them, they're very likely to want to join. Daleen said you need only look at the tremendous success of airline loyalty programs with special seating, check-in, and upgrade benefits to understand why this is important to restaurant patrons as well.
Daleen is the CEO of AppSuite LLC.
