Instant jQuery 2.0 Table Manipulation How-to
Instant jQuery 2.0 Table Manipulation How-to
Book Details
About This Book
- Learn something new in an Instant! A short, fast, focused guide delivering immediate results.
- Use simple jQuery functions to enhance your HTML tables
- Demonstrate client side functionality and add AJAX for server side integration
- Modify your tables without editing your HTML
Who This Book Is For
Instant jQuery 2.0 Table Manipulation How-to is aimed at both newcomers and those who have already worked with JavaScript or jQuery. A familiarity with HTML and basic CSS would be beneficial.
Table of Contents
What You Will Learn
- Mark up your code to use jQuery selectors effectively
- Learn jQuery to drastically simplify tasks that would be much more difficult in plain old JavaScript
- Build interactivity into your pages without reloading the page or calling back to the server
- Take advantage of powerful AJAX techniques that allow you to communicate with the server without refreshing the page
- Use simple jQuery functions to enhance your HTML tables
In Detail
When jQuery was introduced, it took the JavaScript world by storm. Years later, it shows no sign of slowing down. Its powerful yet concise syntax helps to simplify tasks that might otherwise be difficult or complex. Whether you're a JavaScript novice or an expert, jQuery is a valuable addition to your toolbox.
Instant jQuery 2.0 Table Manipulation How-to shows you how to quickly and easily add style and functionality to your HTML tables. You'll be amazed to see how easy it is. Just don't let your customers know!
HTML tables can be boring. Sure, we can make them more stylish with CSS, but users want interactivity. They want to be able to sort columns, see totals, filter data, and page through information in easily digestible chunks.
Starting off with a plain HTML table, and an ID and a few class attributes, you will see the transformations occur with just a few lines of jQuery. Instant jQuery 2.0 Table Manipulation How-to progresses to showing you how to highlight specific table cells and filter table data, and even sort columns or page through data.
Regardless of your skill level with JavaScript or jQuery, this book will walk you through the deceptively simple steps needed to add functionality and interactivity to your HTML tables.

Starting a small food service
by pgoddard, Window Shopper
- Created: March 24, 2010, 9:04 am
I am interested in starting a small Taco bar food service, I found a great location, what steps do i need to take to get started
LocationIsland | Creator | 4/12/2010 - 1:26 pm
Pamela, I would start with your local municipality first (village, city or township ...then, the county, if applicable). If your 'great location' is not zoned correctly, nothing else matters. If it is...you're off to a good start. While you're at the town offices, find out about the steps necessary for obtaining all of the permits & licenses necessary to build and operate a food service facility and the exact process & timeline for obtaining those permits. Realize that you'll need approvals from the health department, the building department, county clerk, etc and that it can be a pretty involved process (even for a small taco stand). Getting all of this information upfront will not only help you make sense of it all, but will be valuable to you while you write your business plan (Which is THE most important steps that you'll need to take when starting the business). While doing your due diligence, don't forget to reach out to your local, county & state economic development departments for any potential help that they can give you. There are some great programs available to the independent businessperson all across the country and it would be a shame not to take advantage of them. Finally...write a solid business plan, find a good mentor and stay passionate about what you do. Oh yeah...and never fall in love with a location! LOL Best of luck, Tony O
emarketed | Creator | 4/2/2010 - 11:24 am
For the marketing aspect of your new business, it's important to utilize local search. Make sure your business is added to the busincess center for Google, Yahoo, Bing and other yellow pages. This way, you'll show up when someone searches for tacos in your area. Yelp and Chowhound are also great resources. Good luck, Pamela!
dman | Performer | 4/1/2010 - 3:28 am
It would probably be a good idea to read up on some of the food industry laws in your state. Although for a smaller food service it would probably be very simple, but usually you have to be registered and inspected by the state for health requlations. The particular state I live in they generally do this 2x per year, and here there is actually a fee for them to come and inspect. But like I mentioned for a smaller service, and depending on where you live if might be cheap and not much to it. Good Luck!
Joemicheal | Creator | 3/31/2010 - 12:15 am
Good to know you are interested in getting into the food business. I have some questions. Do you have previous experience in running that kind of business? Do you have skilled staff? Have you done market research? Who are your competitors and what do they offer to their customers i.e. price quality, environment etc? For further information and a brief checkout community the restaurants and food service businesses section provides information on wages, taxes, food safety etc. For start up and business plans, check steps to starting a business, which gives information on how to get licenses, tax numbers, business planning etc. Hope this helps you.
ChristineL | Former Moderator | 3/26/2010 - 8:37 am
Hi pgoddard, Which state are you starting your business in? You can check out our state guide for step-by-step help. Is this a restaurant or a food concession stand? If it's a restaurant, you can learn more about operating a restuarant in our blog. Since you are starting a food service, I suggest you check out our Food Service Business Guide for more information on employment and labor laws, taxes, and food safety.
phanio | Contributor | 3/25/2010 - 11:23 am
One of the first things you should look into is the laws of your state - most states have laws or requirements when it comes to food service businesses - check out your Secretary of State's office or: Find a SCORE or SBDC office in your area. Not only can they help you with the requirements of your state but they can also help you research and develop a business plan - a plan that will help you start, run and grow your business instead of trying to do it blindly.

Can Pierce play vs. Pats?
Harbaugh Exclusive: Coach breaks down his epic win over Denver, preps for title game tilt with New England
Bernard Pierce's status for the AFC title game could be in jeopardy.
Coach John Harbaugh avoided questions about the health of his rookie running back Monday, but Pierce only played 16 offensive snaps in the divisional playoff win vs. the Denver Broncos.
He didn't have a full week of practice last week because of a knee injury. Pierce had become an integral part of the Ravens' two-back attack with Ray Rice.
Pierce wasn't a factor Saturday, finishing with 5 carries for 14 yards in a 38-35 double-overtime victory vs. the Broncos. Ray Rice, despite being winded from the high altitude, led the way with 30 carries for 130 yards.
Pierce had emerged as a weapon after being under-utilized most of the season. He had 123, 89 and 103 rushing yards in his three previous games. He combined with Rice for 220 all-purpose yards in a 24-9 win vs. the Indianapolis Colts in a wild-card playoff game.
Pierce's absence, or inability to perform to an optimum level, places an extra burden on Rice, who is faced with a stout run defense of the Patriots. They held Arian Foster of the Houston Texans to 90 yards on 22 carries in a 41-28 win Sunday.
Rice had 20 carries for 101 yards and 1 TD and 5 catches for 49 in a Week 3 meeting with the Patriots. The Ravens won that game 31-30, but the Patriots finished the regular season with the ninth-best run defense (101.9 per game).
If the Ravens want to chew up the clock and keep quarterback Tom Brady off the field, having a fresh body in Pierce to spell Rice is crucial.

Hammel looking forward to start
Orioles announce Minor League players of the year
For the first time since July 28, Jason Hammel starts for the Orioles. He wasn't expecting the assignment, which came when Bud Norris was scratched because of discomfort in his right elbow.
Hammel was placed on the disabled list with right forearm tightness after his last start, and after two innings in relief on Sunday.
"I stayed patient. The time in the bullpen allowed me to think about stuff, but I tried to stay connected to my routine as closely as I could. Obviously, feeling healthy now. Things should be a lot different," Hammel said.
Hammel hasn't won in his last 10 starts. His last win came against the Nationals on May 27.
"I think the whole month off helped. First of all, getting healthy. When the arm doesn't quite feel right, then you can't get to each point in the delivery where you need to get to actually execute the pitches; it's going to change the result," Hammel said.
"Just having that out of my mind now and being able to get full extension, just even with the work I did with the minors, just side work while I was on the DL, it feels better, so a lot of good work and I feel strong. I'm obviously looking forward to it."
Hammel knows the start is an important one for the Orioles.
"As long as we don't think too far ahead, I think we'll be fine because we're right there in the thick of it. I don't know what the number is. We're in striking distance, I know that, so as long as don't get too far ahead, thinking two or three games ahead, that's when we'll be fine. As long as we go in and continue to play hard every night," Hammel said.
"We've been pitching well, we've been getting timely hits, try not to do too much. It's a very important last two weeks here. It's crunch time, we've got to make some plays. As long as we don't get too far ahead, we'll be fine."

August 2, 2015
LOS ANGELES -- NASA scientists say tests on a Mars rock show the planet could have supported primitive life.
The analysis was done by the rover Curiosity, which drilled into the rock, crushed it and tested a tiny sample. The rover was the first spacecraft sent to Mars that could collect a sample from deep inside a rock.
At a briefing at NASA's Washington headquarters on Tuesday, NASA scientist said the rock contains clay minerals that formed in a watery environment - an environment that may be favorable for microscopic organisms.
Curiosity had already found a hint of the site's watery past - an ancient streambed that the six-wheel rover crossed to get to the flat bedrock.
The rover made a dramatic landing near the Mars equator last August for a two-year mission.

Blanc Type is one of the few remaining Matte2 finish shadows. This is a fabulous eye shadow finish/formulation and so it's no surprise that Blanc Type is a "must have" in many people's collections. On me, this is a perfect matte highlight. It's basically the colour of my lids or a bit lighter so it is terrific for blending out other colours or toning down anything a bit too extreme or harsh looking, if you've been a bit heavy handed. It's also one of those shades (there are many) that looks great and classic on its own, perhaps with something just a few shades darker to contour the crease very subtly. On a side note, Mac would be wise to expand the Matte2 range with some new shades, rather than trimming it down. Some of their best-loved, most popular shadows are Matte2 finishes.

Blanc Type is described as a "creamy beige [with a Matte2 finish]." It's a neutral, light beige with a matte finish. See comparison swatches / view dupes.

CNBC contributor Rick Santelli responds to today's jobs numbers:

Rick Santelli got into a screaming match this morning on CNBC when he said that, under President Obama, the U.S. economy has had a net loss of 61,000 jobs since February 2009:
Rick Santelli took on Tom Friedman this morning in a heated exchange on CNBC, with both ending the discussion by calling the other "idiotic:"

Larry Kudlow discusses the two sides of the Tea Party with Rick Santelli:
Earlier this morning, Rick Santelli discussed Matthew Continetti's article "The Two Faces of the Tea Party" from this week's issue of THE WEEKLY STANDARD:
The Tea Party is more than a year old. It began with Rick Santelli's famous rant against the Obama administration's housing policy on February 19, 2009. As Santelli predicted, that policy failed and the administration announced a new approach last week. It probably won't help either. But the Tea Party endures. It gained steam with rallies on Tax Day 2009, the town hall meetings protesting Obamacare last August, and the 9/12 march on Washington. The trajectory of the Tea Party is upward; the trajectory of the Democrats, downward. And the rising Tea Party tide is lifting Republican boats. The movement is the best thing to happen to the GOP in years. It contributes enthusiasm, cash, and principle to a disillusioned and demoralized party.

Thanks for the update gen3sf. Now I'm afraid to do anything, It's been along time since I installed cIoSCorp not sure if I know how to uninstall it.
Guess I'll start looking. Thanks again for all the advice.
Oh, good news, Dogeggs just fixed the priiloader 0.2 version so that sysmenu problem should be gone.
New instructions:Try just reinstalling the new priiloader from the new updated 3.1-4.1 softmod download pack. See if that works now. if not, you will have to uninstall cIOSCORP then try to reinstall the new fixed priiloader.

NEVER uninstall or DELETE IOSes under 200 or you will brick the Wii. We always overwrite IOSes under 200.
I'm not familiar enough with cIOSCORP to advise you to skip any of their steps. You will have to run the uninstaller following their directions, it may be necessary to re-do all or some of the softmod-but, the uninstall needs to be in order for you to perform a NAND backup and fix that system menu and/or priiloader problem.
OK, everything went fine, followed the instructions. Re-test Shopping channel still works, Picture Channel still works, Band Hero Still works,
Beattles Still works using NewGamma loader. Systme menu works, its only if a system error occurs(black Screen) and I have to hold power down to reset that it comes bak on with the Priiloader menu, I think this is normal. So, now how do I do nand backup?
With cIOSCORP uninstalled, the hackmii and bootmii functions might just work as it-try it and post back if you get the no vulnerable IOS error message. Follow the Step 1 and 2 instructions in the 3.1-4.1 softmod tutorial you used before:http://www.wiihacks.com/recommended-...d-any-wii.html.
Just do the bootmii part of Step 1 and the NAND backup is Step 2.
I Have a Backup, Thanks Againg for the great advice.
Question is the Backup keyed to my Wii?
Now I have to do this all again on my sons Wii.
This time I know to remove the cIOSCorp first thanks to you.
Hooray! Yes, each Wii's NAND has an individually encrypted ID and so each NAND backup is unique to that Wii. Keep that NAND backup and associated files in a safe location.
If your son's Wii has an identical setup as yours, yes you will need to perform the same steps. You will need to separately backup the NAND of that other Wii, the backups and key files are not interchangeable.
OK, I screwed up. Here is what I did. I ran the cios38 installer but forgot to switch to IOS36. Now when I go to install multi-cios I get return -1 error when downloading from the internet. When I did this on my first Wii I don't remember it downloading from the internet I just remember selecting ios 232. Would it hirt to start the whole
bootmii install process over again 3.1-4.1 mod now that I'm already at 4.1u?
Any advice much appreciated.

Citing the ongoing weakness in PC demand, Citigroup analyst Glen Yeung this morning cut his ratings on Intel, Advanced Micro Devices and Nvidia to Neutral from Buy.
"While these names are down noticeably in recent days, prompted by a noticeably weak August and punctuated by Intel's recent pre-announcement our downgrade today reflects our checks in Asia that stoke our concerns that the intermediate term prospects for PC's do not look optimistic," he writes. "Robbed of catalysts, we see limited likelihood PC-related shares will appreciate meaningfully in coming months, despite valuations."
For 2013, he now sees PC units shrinking 1% – his old forecast was for 4% growth – despite the upcoming launch of Microsoft Windows 8. Here's Yeung list of reasons for the more bearish view:
- Yeung asserts that touch-based solutions will comprise less than 5% of production in the 2012 second half, "negating the benefits of the Metro UI."
- He says ASP's of touch-enabled solutions "are apt to remain high, adding $50-$100 to system costs.
- He also notes that high license fees for Windows RT-based solutions – which are required to bundle Office – are likely to elevate ARM-based notebook prices.
- "Macro uncertainty is clouding demand and likely limits tolerance for high ASP devices."
- Tablet cannibalization also will be an ongoing issue. "After an initial build recovery in September and October, we suspect PC-related builds will again soften from November onward," he writes.
In addition to the downgrades, he also cut his price targets and EPS estimates for the PC chip stocks:
- Intel: New target is $25.75, down from $32. For 2012, he now sees profits of $2.07 share, down from $2.25.
- AMD: New target $4.25, down from $6.50. For 2012, Yeung now expects a loss of 72 cents a share; his previous forecast was a loss of 65 cents.
- Nvidia: Target goes to $15.25, from $16.50. For 2012, Citi now sees profits of 89 cents a share, down from 92 cents.
- Marvell: Yeung maintains his Neutral rating on the stock, while cutting his target to $11.50, from $14. His EPS estimate for the company are unchanged.
Yeung's advice is to seek chip exposure elsewhere. He's especially keen on Broadcom. "Simplistically, their position in new non-PC product cycles (iPhone5) is apt to create some near-term momentum in estimates," he writes.
In pre-market trading:
- INTC is down 19 cents, or 0.8%, to $23.
- AMD is down 3 cents, or 0.8%, to $3.86.
- NVDA is up 3 cents, to $13.62.
- MRVL is down 12 cents, or 1.2%, to $10.13.

good but little loose when in water.
I ordered a small which I usually wear a med. It fit good but when in water it feels little loose. but it stays on. Just have to adjust the back bottom. I know the xsmall would be way to small for me.

GREAT FIT, runs big!
This is a really cute-fitting bottom. I am a size small, but had to go with an x-small. Even the x-small seems a little looser than it should be (especially before getting wet!). I suggest ordering one size smaller than normal :)
Lyria S.

Fit: Feels too big
Very cute fit, a little see through...
I originally ordered the multi-stripe ocean in size small. I am a size small in all other clothing. The fit is really cute, but I ended up having to exchange it for an x-small. Even the x-small seems like it's not as snug as it should be (and this is before getting it wet). Although I think solids would be fine, the white on this bottom is a little see through. Other than that, it is a REALLY cute fit. I suggest it, but order a size smaller!

Rachel Portman's latest soundtrack masterpiece
I love Rachel Portman's music. I really do.
Here is a sampling of her latest work in a marvelous, heartfelt film, "Snow Flower and the Secret Fan." My wife thought I'd rebel against the chick-flick nature of the film, but I found it a powerful meditation on the oppressive societal pressures on women, back in the 19th Century and now. It had a plot line that was not painfully obvious, and the acting and writing was outstanding. Throughout the film, I so enjoyed the music, and said, just as the closing credits began to roll, "You know, the music has the feel of Rachel Portman's work..." and then Rachel's name appeared shortly thereafter.
If I had to describe Rachel Portman's work, it would be to say she evokes the culture and time of a film's plot through violins and other string instruments, and the occasional keyboard instrument. Her music speaks within and transcends the story, which is what every soundtrack should strive to achieve. Portman develops a profoundly soulful theme from what are initially simple notes, and yet she maintains a strong fealty to melody throughout the development of the theme.
There is definitely a Portman style, as there is a Danny Elfman and John Barry style. Portman's style is informed by Vaughan Williams, meaning she juxtaposes and combines folk music and classical music--yet she still touches modernity (such as King Crimson) to remind us of where we presently are living. Portman also appreciates the mystery and majesty of film; how film envelops us as we float in and out of reality, and how film emotionally transports us to a different place as we watch and take in what we see and hear.
Portman's masterpiece remains "Nicholas Nickelby," but this new one comes very, very close. Yes, Rachel Portman is definitely my favorite active film soundtrack composer.

After a relatively heated debate, City of Bowman employee Jason Rucker will receive a pay bump.
Closing out yesterday evening's Bowman City Council meeting was the item regarding a raise for Mr. Rucker, who has been employed by the City of Bowman for roughly three years in total.
Rucker previously made $8.50/hour, and Mayor Pamela Johnson said that he had earned a raise.
"He has really been of a lot of assistance to other city employees", said Johnson. "He comes to work and we have never had any issues with Jason."
The recommended pay increase for Mr. Rucker was to an even $10.00/hour.
A motion was made to approve that increase, and it passed with a unanimous vote.
Councilwoman Betty Jo Maxwell brought up the issue about pay increases for other employees, which Mayor Johnson said could be done, as long as the effective hourly rate was included in discussions.
"Which means what does it cost for us to have them employed with us, what does it cost for each employee", said Johnson. "What are all of our costs, that way you can truly compare it."
A suggestion by Councilwoman Gwyn Bryant was for the council to hammer out a guideline on pay increases during a work session.
"And lets get a pay scale set up, and then once a year decide if they get a cost of living increase, we should do it like other companies do, we can do that", said Bryant.
That work session is expected to take place on the third Monday in the month of November.

To the editors:
The Crimson staff published a very interesting editorial on the topic of extradition for former Serbian president and nefarious war criminal Slobodan Milosevic ("Extradite Milosevic," April 10). The Crimson ought to be lauded for its commitment to the principles of international justice and human rights. Nevertheless, calls for American strong-arm tactics to coerce compliance with international law are misguided.
Let me first say that I believe that Milosevic ought to stand trial for all of the crimes with which he has been charged; I find nothing more offensive or objectionable than the bald fact that killing one person makes you a murderer and killing thousands makes you a world leader. Forcing Milosevic to stand trial for the crimes he has committed would be an important step toward the sanctification of human rights in the international realm. Yet is the United States really the country that ought to be taking the lead in this crusade? Can we honestly expect, nay, demand compliance from Yugoslavia when we have so thoroughly thumbed our nose at the very concept of international criminal law?
The International Criminal Court (ICC) will be a permanent court to replace the ad hoc tribunals established by the Security Council. The U.S. was one of seven nations that voted against the creation of an ICC, a move that alienated us from almost all of our allies and grouped us with nations such as China, Libya and Iraq—not exactly the bastions of liberal humanitarianism. An eleventh-hour signing of the Rome Statute to create such a court, authorized by former President Clinton, was a halfhearted and empty move. It was an utterly meaningless maneuver, and yet President George W. Bush and the Republican majority in Congress vigorously opposed even this hollow, symbolic gesture toward international law.
The U.S. has opposed the very idea of the ICC because—heaven forbid—it would have jurisdiction over Americans, just like everyone else. If we hold ourselves above international law, can we honestly claim to be acting on behalf of justice by using coercive tactics to force another nation to comply with a court system at which we would balk? The ICC would only try criminals when domestic courts did not. On the other hand, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia enjoys primacy of jurisdiction, superceding domestic legal structures. We cannot find adequate cause to support a court system that will work in concert with domestic courts, and yet, with righteous indignation, we demand that another nation must endure the flouting of its domestic court system and hand over an indicted criminal.
With our tepid reaction toward the ICC, the U.S. has shown that it will only support the idea of international law when it is in its interests. The U.S. is undeniably the most powerful nation in the world, and yet it is still holds international courts suspect. Can we reasonably expect a much smaller and weaker nation, one that has seen first hand the awesome power of international response in the form of the NATO military colossus, to trust the international community, if we ourselves will not do so?
The U.S. remains the world's most stable democracy, as evidenced by our last election fiasco. We take politically stability for granted and thus fail to see the potential consequences of extraditing Milosevic for the nascent democratic movement in Serbia. Milosevic should be brought to justice and should pay the price for all the crimes he has committed, but it would be in the best interest of all involved for us to cooperate with the Serbian government. Regardless of the America's status as the world's only hegemonic power, it is wrong for us to hold other nations to legal standards to which we would not hold ourselves. I sincerely hope that the government of Serbia decides to cooperate with the Criminal Tribunal at The Hague, but out of respect for the principles of international law and human rights, and not due to coercion placed on it by the U.S.

This just in from the seller of the clean Volvo 122 wagon that we featured here from Craigslist last month:
"Hello and thank you,
Someone submitted a 1967 Volvo 122s wagon I had for sale on CL Portland. The ad had been up for a few days locally with only one call, then Sunday morning the emails and calls started coming in from around the country and I knew something was up. When I checked the BaT web site I knew what it was. The first call at 7:00am Sunday came from a great chap in Connecticut who made and offer I accepted and he sent a wire monday morning. The wagon will be stable mates with a stunning restored Volvo 123 gt. Thanks to BaT and Craigslist!
Best regards,
Dave A.
Stafford Hamlet, Oregon"
"Here is the 122s wagon loading up for it's transcontinental journey form Oregon to Connecticut. Thought you might like to see my shop "Hack" as well…1971 VW Panel."
~ i'm fortunate to have purchased two cars (both Volvo wagons) and a vintage (Revcon) motorhome sight-unseen through eBay with satisfaction. the 740 V8 was delivered in professionally detailed condition, with two binders full of the elaborated elements of the build.
new owner pleaaaaaaase repaint those wheels or get some new shoes for it
This is why I an an avid BAT watcher. They are the best. They helped me to sell both of my Morgan and they keep my life interesting.
Finally , a real " bring a trailer " story
Pretty girl in a neat car, whats not to like? Love the shop hack. Porsche wheels look great on a bus.
What a great example of a car we don't see enough of on the east coast! Always like the lines of these cars and they're so simple to work on.
Part of Volvo's early safety and longevity story.
I may be partial to this story due to the fact that an Amazon wagon like this is the car that my parents brought me home in from the hospital… and that I now have a white bay window Bus like that one.
Send us all the nice Volvos!
I'm sure the shipping costs are nearly half the price of the car! But kudos to the new owner in CT. Hope it went to a regular here.

"The original 'Friday the 13th.' I saw it with my sister who is eight years older, who snuck me into the movie theater when I was like 10, and it wasn't probably a wise move. I always associated with the most scary movie ever, even though looking back on it, it's like, Why was that so scary? Oh, that's right -- I was 10. It was very memorable, aka I was traumatized." --Carson Kressley

"Without friends, you cannot win. That is that, that is why Justin lost time and time again. Because Leopold had friends to help in times of need, and Justin had no one, save you who rebuilt him. But you were no friend, merely a commander, he was your slave. You will never win against us, even if you try."
―TheKewlOne96 on The Angry German Kid Movie
"My return is not permanent. I have returned to bring a conclusion to my series once and for all and to help clean up the mess some new parody makers have created."
He has recently made a comeback with the promise of finishing the AGK series he started 3 years ago. But now he might be inactive again.
- Leopold Slikk - The protagonist in the series. He mainly plays Unreal Tournament and fails at school. He uses his keyboard as his weapon of choice and his dad and brother hate him. He has friends who are parody makers. Despite them making crude videos of him, he owes them and Fegelein his life.
- Adolf Hitler - He plans actions to kill Leopold in the first parts of the series, but soon they team up. However, he soon resorts to hating Leopold again after being sent a broken computer by Leopold in ep 32. In episode 41, he becomes Leopold's principal. In episode 47, they team up again against Justin.
- Hermann Fegelein - Hitler's arch enemy and Leopold's friend. They team up and take down Justin Bieber in the Trilogy, and their continuing friendship is confirmed in ep 39, where Leopold gets Fegelein's McDonald's order right and achknowleges him.
- Justin Bieber - One of Leopolds main enemies. He appears to Leopold on Chat Roulete and is the main antagonist in the AGK Movie. He is also the main antagonist in a Trilogy of episodes (36-38) where he partners up with Sukson Dikshitt, Leopold's Principal, in order to capture and kill Leopold. Justin Bieber dies again at the end of Ep 38.

DURHAM, N.H. -- Former University of New Hampshire men's hockey standout Bobby Butler (Marlboro, Mass.) helped lead the Binghamton Senators to the American Hockey League's (AHL) Calder Cup title. Butler scored the game-tying goal in Binghamton's 3-2 win over the Houston Aeros on Tuesday night in game six. Additionally, former Wildcat Justin Aikins (White Rock, British Columbia) helped lead the Bossier-Shreveport Mudbugs to the President's Cup Championship of the Central Hockey League (CHL).
The Senators defeated the Aeros 4-2 in the series to take the AHL championship. In 23 playoffs games with Binghamton, Butler scored 13 goals and had four assists. Butler, the AHL All-Star game MVP, split time with both Ottawa and Binghamton during the regular season. In 36 games with Ottawa, Butler tallied 10 goals and had 11 assists. In 47 regular season contests, he put up 33 points on 22 goals in 11 assists. All told, he appeared in 107 games during the 2010-11 season.
The Senators are coached by Kurt Kleinendorst whose daughter Katie is a junior on the UNH women's hockey team
Butler, UNH's first Hobey Baker "Hat Trick" finalist since Darren Haydar in 2001, collected his fair share of hardware as he was the 2010 Hockey East Player of the Year, 2010 Walter Brown Award winner, All-America First Team selection, Hockey East All-Star First Team, Hockey East Scoring Champion and Hockey East Three Stars Award winner. Butler became just the 67th player in program history to register 100 career points, doing so in extremely balanced fashion with 61 goals and 60 assists for 121 points. Butler's 121 points is tied with Chris Winnes for 49th on the all-time scoring list at New Hampshire.
Aikins put up 20 points in 21 postseason games for the Mudbugs. He netted eight goals and 12 assists and was a +6 overall. In the regular season, Aikins scored 18 goals and dished out 37 assists for 55 points in 46 games.
Aikins finished his UNH career with 103 points on 27 goals and 76 assists in 153 games. He notched 32 points in 41 games as a senior in 2004-05 on nine goals and 23 assists.
The Wildcats kick off the 2010-11 season on Saturday, Oct. 1, against the University of New Brunswick.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — Winston-Salem based Novant Healthcare says it's new MyChart, an online medical records system patients can access, has been hugely successful especially with older adults now becoming more active online.
Since it's launch a little over a year ago, Novant says 215,000 patients have signed up to use the system that allows patients to book appointments, email doctors, refill medications, request advice, check billing status, and almost immediately check test results.
Doctors say while they expected most of the users to be younger, nearly 91,000 of those signed up are over 50.
Carolyn Deer is 75 and uses it weekly.
"If you have an account like a bank account or Amazon account or anything like that, it's the same and it's that simple. You can track for yourself how you're doing and if you're doing what your doctor told you to do," Deer said.
Dr. Gwen Wigand-Bolling said it makes doctors more efficient and helps them communicate with patients.
"Oh I love it. It makes me feel like I can be a better doctor. A patient can email me with a question or concern and I can get back to them right away, for example my hypertension patients and diabetics the people I am trying to regulate. They would normally need to come in say every three days to get sugar and medicine readjusted, this way they can email me their sugar value and it's wonderful. I can say, 'okay increase medicine or decrease whatever,'" Wigland-Bolling said.
Novant said this year more than 13,000 appointments have been booked online. More than 450 Novant related doctor's offices are now using the MyChart technology.
Novant plans to begin offering virtual doctor visits via online video conferencing sometime in the next month.

Slay Joins Chorus of DNC-Hopeful Mayors Praising Obama's Tax Deal
On Sunday, the New York Times provided an explanation. Slay had to keep up with the mayors of the three other cities vying for the chance to host the Democratic National Convention in 2012. The Times notes that the mayors of those cities -- Charlotte, Minneapolis and Cleveland -- all publicly endorsed Obama's deal-making last week.
The Times article also gives some hope for St. Louis, which used to be considered a swing-state but is trending more and more Republican these days. A new study has found that since the first Democratic convention in 1823, the candidate has gone on to lose the host state 23 times and win it 22.

Marist College Pagewood an educational landmark

21 Oct 01
Marist College Pagewood is a modern educational landmark, says Br Kelvin Canavan, executive
director of schools for the Sydney Archdiocese.Things have come a long way in the space of 40 years, he said.When it began in 1961, the college had just four classrooms and a house for the brothers.
Br Kelvin, a Marist Brother himself, was speaking during celebrations to mark 40 years of Marist education on the Donovan Avenue site.The celebrations began with a special Mass at St Marys
Cathedral, attended by nearly 1,000 staff, students, teachers and religious representing the Marist College Pagewood community past and present.The community turned out in force again for an open day on the
College campus the next day to view students work and witness the official opening and blessing of the new Champagnat Technology Centre by Bishop David Cremin.The ceremony was attended by a whos who of
the college, including past and present students, staff, parents, principals and priests as well as Bishop Cremin and Br Kelvin.Damien Millar, the principal, gave particular praise to his staff for their
tireless efforts to foster the many talents of the students.At this time of the year, the college is a very busy place with the last weeks of revision classes for Year 12, mock trials, debating, reports to
write, exams to prepare, he said. Its continuous, and the dedication of the staff make it all happen.The facilities at the school have received a big boost with the completion of our new
state-of-the-art technology centre, costing more than $200,000. Containing 50 networked computers, the centre was funded by the parents, students, and the wider Catholic community.Br Kelvin
described the college as a modern educational landmark in the local community. The big challenge thats facing us today is to find enough competent and well-qualified teachers to fill our schools, he
said.He emphasised the wonderful work of teachers today who are striving to make a difference in our world.In a particular way, I wish to congratulate your principal, Mr Damien Millar, for his
outstanding leadership, he said. Damien is passionate about providing Marist Pagewood students with the best opportunities for advancement.The festivities concluded with a dinner attended by 200
old boys and past and present parents at the Novotel Hotel, Brighton-le-Sands.

Does anyone here regularly use heroin on top of their methadone dose? I am curious if anyone is still able to get high on heroin while taking methadone every day.
If you use both, what is your methadone dose, and do you take the methadone every day? Also, how much heroin do you need to get high while on methadone compared to when not on the done? Do you use heroin every day while still taking methadone? If you do, what has it done to your tolerance?
Do you still get the same high from heroin while taking methadone? What has been your overall experience using heroin while on methadone?

No surprises here: National Journal's Democratic and Republican Political Insiders had sharply diverging views of President Obama's newly unveiled my-way-or-the-highway style.
While 9 out of ten Democratic Insiders said the confrontational posture would be useful in enacting the President's decidedly ambitious agenda, about the same number of Republican Insiders said it was unhelpful in forwarding his priorities.
Both in his inauguration address and his first full press conference after winning re-election, Obama has made it clear that he expects congressional Republicans to play ball on his terms-markedly different from the conciliatory tone he adopted after arriving at the White House in 2009 or in the wake of the beating Democrats took in the 2010 midterms.
Will President Obama's new confrontational style be helpful in enacting his agenda?

Many Democrats said Obama's style is the kind of leadership and liveliness they've been waiting for all along.
"Most Americans feel the need for a strong leader at the helm: someone who stands for something, fights for what he believes is best for them, and, at the end of the day, drives tough bargains to get things done," said one.
"He always had the pulpit, and he has finally learned he has to become a bully to get anything done. Lyndon Johnson would be smiling," another said.
Democrats also pointed out that Obama was simply affirming the results of the election, which were anything but ambiguous.
"Memo to GOP: It's not confrontation if you are merely reciting your campaign pledges," one Democratic Insider taunted.
Others noted it was simply a matter of political necessity for Obama to exude strength.
"Well, being nice sure worked well, didn't it? Only way to fight rightwing fire is with fire," said one. Added another: "Bullies and obstructionists only understand power. The president must be resolute while always willing to talk."
Not all Republicans disagreed with the tactic the President has chosen to deploy.

"He's got the wind at his back, and he's consolidating his growing base," one GOP Insider said. "The president has figured out how to exploit the divide within the Republican House. Not until the Republicans stand united will the president need to shift strategy."
Most, nonetheless, took a dimmer view, with many Republican Insiders accusing the President of arrogance and overreach.
"Obama's arrogant, condescending treatment of his opponents does nothing to further an agenda, but it certainly feeds his ambition to be known as the Democratic Reagan," one said.
"Obama's Achilles' heel has always been his incredible arrogance, and his recent press conference and inaugural address were pure hubris," another GOP insider bristled. "Winning by 2.9 percent does not give him a mandate to roll over 48 percent of the country. Especially when he's essentially pulled a bait and switch about his true aims."
A third added: "Reagan said the purpose of a negotiation is to get an agreement. With this White House, the purpose of a negotiation is to posture."
Others said antagonizing congressional Republicans was an ill-advised strategy if the President was actually interested in getting legislation passed in a Republican Congress.
"Insulting your adversaries is seldom a 'helpful' start to negotiations," one Republican said.
"He's a terrible negotiator and compromiser, and this style gives Republicans every incentive to make him miserable: all the fun of Clinton term two without the impeachment," another chimed in.
Some Democrats too were dubious that this was the best way forward.
"We have to get things through the asylum, and his style is going to make it harder for [Speaker John] Boehner to do what he needs to," said one Democratic Insider.
