At the Price city council meeting on June 24, topics ranged from the city's parade float to Emery Telcom's efforts with expanding it's cable TV offerings.
Price city has recently constructed a parade float that can be utilized for a variety of parade events, and while the vehicle is nearing completion, it has come under scrutiny of the state, because it is unfit to pass road inspections. "We need to find a compromise, because if the float is unsafe, then we have many other things that are unsafe," said councilmember Jeanne McEvoy during the meeting. While the float is a motorized vehicle, the council does not believe it needs to pass state highway inspection because, they do not believe it will ever be used on the highway.
"As long as we have brakes and obvious things, (to make it safe) we should be alright," said city attorney Nick Sampinos. Eventually, the council decided that while some safety inspections might still be pending, it is safe to assume that the float should be fine if it is clearly classified for non highway use. "We want it safe, but we want a float," said council member Rick Davis.
The council decided that it was safe to finish the float in which the CEU welding department is contributing time to.
Emery Telcom CEO Brock Johansen was also present to present the council with the company's plans for operating a cable TV station, that is not under the former Precis Communications agreement. The council granted Emery Telcom an additional 45 days in which to work out some of the final details of the new cable system agreement.
Although extra time was granted to Emery Telcom, Johansen said during the meeting and again over the phone that he would like to see Price city ease some of the regulations that are currently in place for cable TV providers.
"Many of the provisions deal with the phones in that we can only talk to so many people and only for a certain amount of time,"said Johansen. His reasoning for the deregulation is that most of the provisions were put into place when cable companies had near monopolies over the TV system, which has changed with the introduction of cheap satellite providers.
"All of Emery County's cities made their regulations less strict," said Johansen, "the rest of Carbon County has implied that they will follow Price's example," he concluded.

2.1 LilyDev
There is a disk image of a 'remix' of Debian GNU/Linux available for download which includes all the necessary software and tools to compile both LilyPond and the documentation. Called the "Debian LilyPond Developer Remix", but known simply as "LilyDev" for short. Although it is not possible to compile LilyPond on Windows and extremely difficult on MacOS, LilyDev can be installed and run inside a 'virtual machine' on any of these operating systems without disturbing your main operating system. The LilyDev disk image can also be burnt to a DVD or copied to a USB stick and installed like any other GNU/Linux distribution.
Most virtualization software can be used but we recommend VirtualBox as it is available for all major operating systems and is easy to install & configure.
If you are not familiar with GNU/Linux, it may be beneficial to read a couple of "introduction to Linux" web pages.
For those interested, the LilyDev remix is currently based on a 32bit version of Debian 7 (Wheezy). The image is generated using Debian live-build and the configuration files are hosted on GitHub:
Note: Apart from installing and configuring LilyDev in VirtualBox, the rest of the chapter assumes that you are comfortable using the command-line. While this chapter is intended for users who may have never created a patch or compiled software before, experienced developers (who prefer to use their own development environment) may still find it instructive to skim over this section.

Installing LilyDev in VirtualBox
This section discusses how to install and use LilyDev with VirtualBox.
Note: If you already know how to install a virtual machine using a disc image inside VirtualBox (or your own virtualization software) then you can skip this section and go straight to lily-git.
Download Virtualbox from here:
Note: In virtualization terminology, the operating system where Virtualbox is installed is known as the host. LilyDev will be installed 'inside' Virtualbox as a guest.
Start the VirtualBox software and click 'New' to create a new
"virtual machine".
The 'New Virtual Machine Wizard' will walk you through setting up your guest virtual machine. Choose an appropriate name for your LilyDev installation and select the 'Linux' operating system. When selecting the 'version' choose 'Debian (32 bit)' (don't use the '64 bit' option). If you do not have that specific option choose 'Linux 2.6' (again do not choose any option that has 64 bit next to it).
- Select the amount of RAM you will allow the LilyDev guest to use from your host operating system when it is running. If possible, use at least 700 MB of RAM; the more RAM you can spare from your host the better, although LilyDev will currently use no more than 4 GB (4096 MB) even if you are able to assign more.
- For your 'Virtual Hard Disk', leave the 'Create new hard disk' option checked, use the default 'VDI' and "Dynamically allocated" options for the virtual hard drive. A complete compile of everything (code, docs, regression tests) can reach 10 GB so size your virtual disk and its location accordingly.
Verify the summary details and click 'Create', when you are satisfied.
Your new guest will be displayed in the Virtualbox window.
Note: The image contains a 686-pae kernel, so you must enable PAE in the virtual machine settings: click on System → Processor and select 'Extended features: Enable PAE/NX'.
- Click the 'Start' button and the 'First Run Wizard' will prompt you for the installation media. Click the browse icon and locate the LilyDev disk image and click through the wizard to start the installation process.
When the LilyDev disk image boots, you should choose the 'Install' or
the 'Graphical install' menu item to begin the installation of
LilyDev on your virtual hard disk. The installer will walk you
through the complete installation process.
Note: If the root password is left blank when prompted, the configured user account will be be given root privileges automatically. This means that only one password needs to be remembered.
- At the "Partition disks" stage, do not be afraid to select "Guided - use entire disk", since this refers to your virtual disk, not your machine's actual hard disk.
- Click through the rest of the wizard, filling in any appropriate details when asked and wait for the install to complete. This will take about 10 minutes in a recent computer.
- When the installation is completed, just click on Continue (you don't have to remove any media since you installed from a file on your host filesystem). The installer will reboot the virtual machine: LilyDev is now installed and running!
Known issues and warnings
Not all hardware is supported in all virtualization tools. In particular, some contributors have reported problems with USB network adapters. If you have problems with network connection (for example Internet connection in the host system is lost when you launch virtual system), try installing and running LilyDev with your computer's built-in network adapter used to connect to the network. Refer to the help documentation that comes with your virtualization software.

Configuring LilyDev in VirtualBox
VirtualBox has extra 'guest additions' which although are not necessary to use LilyDev or compile Lilypond, do provide some additional features to your Virtual Machine to make it easier to work with. Such as being able to dynamically resize the LilyDev window, allow seamless interaction with your mouse pointer on both the host and guest and let you copy/paste between your host and guest if needed.
Select the 'Devices' menu from the virtual machine window and choose
'Install Guest Additions...'. This will automount a CD which will
prompt you to autorun it. Click OK and follow the instructions. It is
recommended to reboot the guest when the installation is complete.
Other virtualization software will also have their own 'guest' additions, follow the normal procedures for your virtualization software with LilyDev as the client.
Restart LilyDev to complete the installation of the guest additions.
Advanced note: If you do any kernel upgrades, you may need to reinstall the additional software. Just follow the step above again and reboot when the reinstallation is complete.
Other items that may be helpful:
- In the settings for the virtual machine, set the network to Bridged mode to allow you to access shared folders when using Windows hosts.
Set up any additional features, such as 'Shared Folders' between
your main operating system and LilyDev. This is distinct from the
networked share folders in Windows. Consult the external
documentation for this.
Some longtime contributors have reported that 'shared folders' are rarely useful and not worth the fuss, particularly since files can be shared over a network instead.
Pasting into a terminal is done with
- Right-click allows you to edit a file with the text editor (default is Leafpad).
One particular change from Windows and MacOS X is that most
software should be installed with your "package manager"; this
vastly simplifies the process of installing and configuring
software. If you use LilyDev 3.0 and you need a graphical
package manager type this command in a terminal:
sudo apt-get install synaptic
Go to the menu at the bottom left and click on Preferences → Synaptic Package Manager.

A whitewater rafting company that operates a guide service in Watertown has been fined $25,000 for violating a court order requiring that it use only licensed guides on its excursions.
Acting State Supreme Court Judge Richard C. Giardino, Johnstown, earlier this month penalized Hudson River Rafting Co. Inc., North Creek, and its owner, Patrick J. Cunningham, after finding the business in contempt of court for violating a May 15 order that it use licensed guides on portions of the upper Hudson River, where only licensed guides are allowed to take clients rafting.
The company, which also runs trips on the Black River from 424 Newell St., came to the state attorney generals attention in September 2012 when a 53-year-old Ohio woman drowned after falling from a raft on Indian River in Hamilton County. State police arrested the rafting guide, charging him with criminally negligent homicide, accusing him of being drunk during the rafting trip. Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman sought to have the company shut down permanently, citing the drowning and other safety concerns.
In his May 15 order, Judge Giardino barred the company from offering guided rafting trips on any river in the state where licensed guides are required and made the company post a $50,000 performance bond before trips could be resumed. He also ruled that the company would be fined $5,000 for each instance in which it was shown that the company violated the order requiring licensed guides. In July, the company posted an irrevocable letter of credit to the state and was allowed to reopen.
In August, the attorney general accused the company of again allowing an unlicensed guide to lead trips down portions of the Hudson River where licenses are required. Mr. Schneidermans office provided Judge Giardino with affidavits from five customers in which it was claimed that an unlicensed guide had led their trips down portions of the river where only licensed guides were allowed.
Judge Giardinos decision shows that the company claimed that the five trips all occurred in the middle Hudson River, where no licensed guides are required. However, the judge determined that the company failed to refute the attorney generals evidence that the trips occurred in a portion of the river requiring licensed guides. He assessed $5,000 fines for each of the five unauthorized trips.

Erin Chase, from $5 on Rachael Ray tomorrow, April 21
I just wanted to give you a heads up that Erin, from $5 Dinners will be on the Rachael Ray show tomorrow, April 21. I haven't met Erin face-to-face, but she and I have chatted on the phone a few times and through email and instant message.
You can read about her experience with the taping, here.
What I LOVE about reading her RR story, is it started the same way mine did. She emailed the show. I can't even count the number of times I've written in to talk shows-----I do it all the time, and I did it monthly while I was trying to get Totally Together published. It's just something I do. I feel it's better to do something proactive (not the face scrub. although I have tried it----it sort of worked, but then gave me a rash) then wait for stuff to fall in my lap.
But the Rachael Ray show is the only one, ever, who has ever responded.
So! set your dvrs and support Erin. And then go do something that will push you towards whatever goal you're currently working on. (towards whatever goal of which you're currently working?) boy, that sounds pretentious.
In other news,
I completed all my copyedit edits. The book just got FedExed off (which, OH MY is expensive. $68? really? I couldn't believe it.)
and Tiffany, from Eat at Home, interviewed me along with 4 other busy food bloggers about thier go-to family meals.
Have a super wonderful day! I'm spending it doing nothing. :-0

thanks for the RR heads up! I always want to watch, but always forget! lol. I have been to Erin's blog a few times (it's been a while though), so it's exciting to know she will be on RR :).
Isn't it such a great feeling of accomplishment, to know that you have a specific goal, and are pushing toward it? Today is day 110 for me--in a row (lol). Everyday I feel like I have accomplished something huge (although each day is small in itself), because I have not given up on this goal...and it shows!
I am so excited for your book! I have applied the daily 7 to my new home, and it has been marvelous! All of your cleaning tips have helped me to reinvent myself in our new house (it has even taken my hubby off guard lol). Our house for the most part, is always clean, and it's awesome! No more scrambling if someone decides to pop over unexpectedly :).
Thanks again for everything Steph :) :).

YAY for getting your editing stuff done and off! Yes...FedEx is expensive!
I will set my DVR right now...gotta support the bloggy friends!
I will so be buying your books...your wisdom has made my whole house less stressful! (just don't look at it right now. If you came over, I wouldn't let you in. SORRY!) We have been busy and the weather change/wardrobe change/schedule change has thrown me off yet again.
Keep it up! It's Monday...time for me to get back on track and in my routine once again! And so many of us couldn't do it without you.

LiroXIV writes: You know you've messed up big time when someone related to the development of one of the first graphical interfaces for computers thinks you've messed up. Usability expert Raluca Budiu has shared the common conclusion for many about Microsoft's upcoming Windows 8; it's definitely not as user-friendly as past versions.

BUFFALO, NY - It is a story being talked about throughout the nation.
An employee at a senior living center in California -- who identified herself as a "nurse"--- refusing a 9-1-1- operator's instructions to begin CPR on a resident ...stating that it was "against her employer's policy".
It has also gotten many people curious about what the policies might be in New York State.
"All assisted living residences are required to act promptly to secure necessary medical assistance for residents, which in emergency situations is to call for emergency medical assistance by dialing 911," said Lisa Newcomb, Executive Director of the Empire State Association of Assisted Living in a statement to WGRZ-TV.
However, she also indicated the 250 member agencies represented by the association would not prohibit an employee from administering CPR.
"While the state does not mandate the use of CPR, individuals employed by the assisted living residence are free, in their individual capacities, to exercise their own judgment and perform CPR if they feel they have the knowledge, training and/or support to do so," Newcomb said.
But that was not the case for one former employee of an assisted living center in Chautauqua County, who spoke to Channel 2 News on the condition of anonymity. He said he was frustrated with his former employer's expressed policy, which prohibited the administering C-P-R, even though he had been an emergency room nurse prior to his employment with the assisted living center.
"It's real hard to stand there with your finger in your ear, watching someone die, waiting for help to arrive when you could just do what you were trained to do but they won't allow it," he said. (The assisted living center he worked for does not appear on a list of Empire State Association of Assisted Living member agencies).
The New York State Department of Health confirmed the stance of the Association of Assisted Living.
"State Health regulations require an assisted living facility to call 9-1-1 to obtain necessary emergency medical assistance if needed," said Peter Constantakes, a Department of Health spokesperson. "These regulations do not require staff to perform CPR."
"I think at the end of the day, the regulations could be interpreted that way," said Michael Scinta, an attorney specializing in cases of nursing home and assisted living abuse with the Brown Chiari law firm. "But they're not just baby sitters or landlords as they would have you believe. They have an obligation, in our opinion, a legal and moral obligation toward their residents," Scinta said.
"Maybe her (the worker in California) guidelines said not to do anything ,but now she has to live with that decision that she made for the rest of her life based on a guideline," said Joe Foucha, a firefighter and emergency medical technician at the Niagara Falls Air Reserve station. Foucha, who was spending Tuesday volunteering to teach children CPR at the Niagara Wheatfield schools, said, "I'd rather save the person's life and then worry about getting reprimanded later."
"There seemed to be no reason not to do it (CPR) ...other than just this rule," said Dr. Jack Freer, regarding the case at the California assisted living center.
Freer, who practices internal medicine and is affiliated with the University at Buffalo Medical School, is also a Bioethicist, who studies ethics in medicine.
He said if the employee was indeed a nurse trained in CPR, then her choice to put policy over practice raises some real concerns.
"I think anyone who would obey that policy blindly, without thinking about overriding it, is a problem also," he said.
Constantakes, who told Two On Your Side that there is no requirement for an assisted living center to have a nurse on staff, noted that the regulations are different for nursing homes because they are considered, (like hospitals) to be a facilities that provide health care, while an assisted living center is not.
"It is recommended that residents or their family members check with an individual facility to learn what its policies and procedures are regarding CPR in emergency situations," Constantakes said.

- Study Results
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
The hypothesis is that Polyphenon E can protect brain cells in patients with Multiple Sclerosis. To test this hypothesis we are going to compare the changes in n-Acetyl-Aspartate (a chemical that reflects the number of neurons and their metabolism) over one year between people with MS treated with Polyphenon E at a dose of 400mg twice a day and people with MS treated with a matching sugar pill.
Multiple Sclerosis
Drug: Polyphenon E
Other: Placebo
Phase 2
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Non-Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment

Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|Phase 2 Randomized Placebo Controlled Trial of Polyphenon E in MS
- Rate of Change in NAA Levels Adjusted for Water Content. [ Time Frame: 1 year ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The rate of change will be calculated using all the time points available )baseline, 6 and 12 months) using a mixed model analysis with the Log NAA as the dependent variable and water content, %grey matter, %white matter, %CSF and % lesion volume as covariates. All the voxels available for each subject where estimates have a SD <30 will be used. A spatial anysotropic exponential covariance structure will be used.
- Brain Atrophy [ Time Frame: 1 year ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Difference between the two groups in brain atrophy as measured by SIENA
|Study Start Date:
|July 2011
|Study Completion Date:
|February 2013
|Primary Completion Date:
|February 2013 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Polyphenon E 400mg twice a day
Two capsules of Polyphenon E containing 200mg of EGCG each taken twice a day with food.
Drug: Polyphenon E
Polyphenon E is a standardized green tea extract. For this study we will use capsules of Polyphenon E containing 200 mg of EGCG per capsule. Subjects will take two capsules twice a day with food.

Financing your student's college education is often one of the largest concerns a parent may have. The Financial Aid Office at Ferris State University is here to help you and your student through the financial aid process.
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, otherwise known as FERPA, is a Federal Law and was introduced to give students certain rights regarding the confidentiality of their educational records. FERPA establishes the rights of the parents and students of any school which receives federal educational funds. The Financial Aid Office will not be able to discuss specific information with you regarding your student's financial aid, billing account, etc, without express written consent of your student. Your student may complete and sign a Release of Information form at the Student Services Center in the Timme Building during normal business hours.
Financial aid is any resource that assists a student in paying for his or her educational expenses. The primary responsibility for paying for your educational expenses rests upon the student and parents. Financial aid programs are intended to help students whose families cannot pay all, or perhaps any, of their college expenses. Financial aid programs include grants, loans, scholarships and work study.
A financial timeline checklist is available to help you keep track of important dates and deadlines.
Please click here to print this checklist
Most parents want to know how much it costs for a student to attend Ferris State University. The actual cost of attendance, particularly related to tuition costs and room and board charges for on-campus students is not finalized until the Board of Trustees meets in July of each year. Because the Financial Aid Office cannot wait until July to begin awarding aid for the fall semester, we anticipate expected changes to tuition, room and board fees and estimate the student budgets accordingly. Historically, Financial Aid Office estimates have been very close to the actual rates charged.
The student's budget, as determined by the Financial Aid Office, is the maximum amount of financial aid a student may receive from any source. Student budgets are comprised of the average cost of the following expenses:
Room and board
Books and supplies
Transportation costs
Personal expenses
Loan fees
Because different categories of students have different expenses, each student is assigned a budget reflecting their particular expenses. For instance, non-resident students pay higher tuition rates than Michigan residents. Therefore, the budget for a non-resident student would reflect higher tuition costs that a Michigan resident budget.
Some programs, such as Automotive Technology and Dental Hygiene require the purchase of tools. The cost of tools is added to the books and supply expense for students enrolled in programs that incur those expenses, so that they may acquire the aid necessary to cover those expenses. The Financial Aid Office relies on enrollment records and information from the Dean's offices and instructors of those programs to tell us how much we should include for additional tool and supply costs and at which semester we should add those additional expenses.
Books and supplies, loan fees, transportation costs and personal expenses are estimated based upon student surveys and bookstore data. The estimates are based on the average cost of attendance for all students.
The estimated cost of attendance or budget amount for your student will be on your student's award notice. Please note that additional expenses such as private room charges or tuition costs for taking more than the average number of classes are not included in your student's budget. If your student has higher than average expenses, then he or she may request a budget adjustment by accessing the Budget Adjustment Request Form or Budget Adjustment Form – Higher Than Average Tuition. A financial aid counselor will review the budget adjustment request, and if permissible under federal financial aid guidelines, will increase your student's budget accordingly. Please note that an increased budget does not necessarily give your student more financial aid, it simply increases the maximum amount of financial aid that your student may receive. In many cases, it allows your student to borrow more money in the form of an alternative loan.
To review the most current tuition and room and board rates, please click here.
Financial aid funds are generally split evenly between the fall and spring semesters for students attending for the academic year. The funds are disbursed to a billing account established by Ferris State University Student Financial Services.
Student Financial Services will send an electric billing statement to each student's FSU email account. If your son or daughter signs you up as an authorized "e-bill" user, you will also receive emailed billing statements.
To authorize other users to view billing statements and make credit card or electronic check payments to your student's account, your student may log into MyFSU and select the Academics and Services tab, Timme Center for Student Services heading, E-bill Pay On-line/Check Student Account section. Your student will then be able to add you as an authorized user to allow you to receive emailed billing statements.
For additional information regarding payment plans and billing options, please visit the Student Financial Services' Parent's FAQ.
Communication: We will be communicating with your student via their MyFSU (Ferris email account) on a regular basis, very soon after s/he is admitted to FSU. It is very important that your student begin to check his or her Ferris email account on a regular basis. We sometimes hear that students didn't think they needed to begin checking their Ferris email accounts until classes begin. Other students tell us that they receive so many email communications, that they don't take the time to read them. We understand that some students have not made up their minds regarding their school choice, and that they wait until they make a final decision to begin responding to our communications. In some cases, this can result in a loss of aid for the student. We strongly encourage you to read the Financial Aid Process to learn about financial aid filing deadlines and priority consideration dates.
Mailing addresses: We will rarely mail information to the student. The first notification that we need additional information to complete the financial aid file or the first notification that we have an award for a student will be in paper form. Prior to school beginning, the paper notification will be sent to the permanent home address. Once school is in session, we begin mailing information to the student's local (residence hall or apartment). Please realize that our communication is geared to the student, even if we are missing information that only a parent can provide. Also, please understand that our primary mode of communication is by email to student's Ferris email accounts. We urge you to have a conversation with your student regarding the importance of reading every email they receive from the Financial Aid or Student Financial Services. If the student doesn't understand what the communication is about, we encourage them to forward it to you or to contact our office for more information. Students sometimes delete very critical emails that require immediate action.
Missing requirements: As your student progresses through the financial aid process, he or she will be required to complete processes or submit documentation. Whenever we need something from your student, we will place a "Missing requirement" on his or her account. The student can log into MyFSU and check the status of his or her missing requirements in "real time". For example, if we receive a FAFSA for an admitted student and he or she was selected for the verification process, we will add three missing requirements to the student's file: 1) Verification Form for Dependent Students 2) Parent tax data and 3) Student tax data for the appropriate aid year. When the student logs into MyFSU, these three items will be listed under missing requirements. The student may click on links for specific instructions and/or specific forms for each missing requirement. Once our office has received any required documents, we will change the status to "received, not yet reviewed". Once our staff has reviewed the documents, the requirement status will either be "satisfied" or additional requirements will be added. For instance, if we received a tax return without a signature, we would update the student file to indicate that we have received the tax return, but we would add another requirement for "tax return signature missing". Your student can check the current status of these requirements at any time.
What you can do to help: You can help us by encouraging your students to be proactive regarding his/her financial aid. Many parents feel that financial aid is too complicated for their students and want to handle everything for them. The problem with this is that the students often ignore communication from us, assuming that the parent will "take care of it".
Since we are communicating directly with the student in most cases, the parent is not always aware that any action is required. We recommend that you and your student work together to get through the financial aid process. You can help them learn personal responsibility through meeting deadlines, completing requirements, and taking an interest in their finances. Do not complete the Direct Loan Entrance Counseling or the Direct Loan Master Promissory Note process for your student - let him or her do it for him/herself. These requirements are designed to make sure your student understands the responsibilities of borrowing money for education. Students will go through the financial aid process each year they enroll, so the sooner they learn to navigate the process, the smoother it will be for everyone - the student, the parent, and the Financial Aid Office.
We're here to help: We understand that the financial aid process can sometimes be confusing. We want to help you and your student navigate this process as quickly and efficiently as possible. Reading through the Financial Aid Process can help you and your student become familiar with the terminology used and will help prepare you by letting you know what to expect during the process. If you have any questions at any time during the process, feel free to email our office or telephone us. We are honored that you have entrusted your student(s) to Ferris State University. We want you and your student's experiences with the Financial Aid Office and with Ferris State University to be positive ones. If you have suggestions that you feel may help us serve your student better, please contact us at email@example.com. We're here to help you and we welcome your comments and suggestions!.

Capybara is reporting "stale elements" for no good reason.
Any experience, war stories upgrading from jQuery 1.6 to 1.7, especially with the whole event delegation API change? [crickets] See interestings…
Have a really big spec file that takes a long time to run? http://rubygems.org/gems/parallel_split_test, from our own Michael Grosser, will run a big spec file in smaller chunks.
url helpers cache results for better performance, but they seem to be losing custom options (in this case a locales setting).
In jQuery 1.6, triggering an event in an unattached DOM node would propagate the event up into the document, even though it was never attached to it. jQuery 1.7 (maybe 1.7.1) fixes this behavior.

Me and a friend are building a site, and we will be using scrollbars within the page. The standard scrollbars just mess up our custom lay-out. So we wanted to make our own custom scrollbar, but no succes.
So we were wondering if somebody could help us make one. It has to load dynamic content and will be used in multiple 'modules'.
If possible it should basically replace the standard scrollbar.
You will of course be supplied with the graphics. Unfortunately we can't offer any money at this point. the only thing we can offer you is some experience. But maybe we can arrange something more, but I can't promise anything.
So if you wanna help us out, please reply to this message,pm me or send me a e-mail.
Thanks in advance,

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
County public safety officials called a meeting of the families of Jayden Seal on Sunday afternoon and told them that authorities had decided to scale back the search for the youngster's body, but the recovery effort would continue.
"We had to make a decision," said Capt. Guy Adams of the county sheriff's office on Monday. "We will continue to look, but our resources have been strained and a lot of the people who have been looking are very tired."
The search for the 1-year-old began on July 30 when the vehicle in which he was riding with his parents, brother and sister was swept away by a 20-foot wall of water in Garley Wash south of Wildcat loadout on Trestle Road.
The force of the water dragged the vehicle nearly a mile down the wash. In the process, Jayden was swept out and away from his parents. The boy's older brother, Levi, died the next day of injuries incurred in the accident. At press time, there was no word on the condition of his sister, 3-year-old Brooklyn.
The accident began a large scale search for the boy, with crews hiking up and down the drainage almost immediately. Many immediate and extended family members joined in the search, but to no avail.
By 7 p.m. on July 30, the county sheriff's department started to call the search a recovery action rather than a rescue. The next morning, a command post was set up near the old school, south of the golf course.
For the next six days, the group of people searching grew as more rescue crews from around the state came to help.
Crews from Weber, Davis, Salt Lake, Summit, Emery, Utah and Duchesne counties came to assist Carbon emergency personnel. On Thursday, 10 canine teams from Duchesne, Rocky Mountain Dogs and American Search Dogs were trying to find traces of the little boy.
The search spanned a 50-mile area from the Garley Canyon, where the late 1980s Bronco came to rest, to near Mounds in southeastern Carbon County, where a net was put across Price River.
Crews with dogs searched the Garley Canyon area repeatedly, with the effort's concentration finally turning to the silt that had settled behind a culvert crossing Rim Rock Drive. The 10-foot culvert at the site would not handle all the water coming down the wash.
Personnel from the county road department began digging up part of the wash bank on Wednesday because dogs had indicated something could be there. Searchers found a diaper that could have been worn by the child.
On Thursday morning, the area was taken apart by the track hoe, but nothing was found. The track hoe was later used to start turning silt behind Rim Rock, again prompted by the search dogs. From about 2 p.m. to 8 p.m., crews focused on one or two spots. But after digging, searchers only found pieces of the Bronco and a case of compact discs that had been in the vehicle. The bowl behind the road measured about two acres, with silt ranging from a few inches to many feet deep.
During the weekend, searchers began to sift the silt in the bowl. But by Sunday, the youngster's family asked the search and rescue crews to stop sifting the silt.
Downstream searchers looked for signs of the boy aided by small flat-bottomed boats and rescue crews who waded through the water. Searchers covered areas between the sewage plant in Wellington and the point where the wash dumps into Price River in Carbonville.
"It was hard to stop for everyone," said Adams. "Many of these people have worked their regular shifts at work and then come down here to search for 12 hours. They are tired. But we will continue to look with teams as we can."
Wally Hendrickson from Duchesne County headed the majory of the efforts by the dog teams. Hendrickson indicated that some teams would be back in the next couple of weeks to find out what the dogs could find then.
Family members had also been searching for the missing little boy, either independently or attached to the official rescue teams. The Seals and Bishops were joined by the Jones and Chiara families. Peggy Hicks, Jayden's grandmother, traveled from Florida to aide in the search.
On Aug. 7, the command post was disassembled and the recovery operations in the future will be run by the Carbon County Sheriff's office.
Individuals who spot items that they believe might have been involved in the accident are encouraged to contact the sheriff's office at 636-3251.

Amid the gently rolling hills of Norwood, a few persons stood at the roadside as Mrs. William (Ruth) Curtis related the story of the big rock, which has always been the pride and joy of the people of that community.
She pointed out the stake set by Avery McNeer and her husband, Bill Curtis, where, to the best of their memories, the giant granite boulder had stood for countless ages. Long ago, geologists had stated that the boulder was foreign to Iowa, that it had come rolling and tumbling down from the north in one of the five glaciers which pushed ever so slowly across this area, plowing out basins for later lakes and forming the low graceful hills so pleasant to look upon today..
The last three glaciers covered only part of what is now Iowa. The centuries rolled along. The Earth's climate changed and when the last glacier came into the relative warmth of this region approximately 50,000 years ago, the great rock came to rest as the ice pack that had nudged it along, began to melt and trickle off into Otter Creek, then into South River, thence into the Des Moines River and finally into the Mississippi, leaving the boulder to wait in silent loneliness for more centuries to pass until the Red Men should come and live out their centuries here.
Tom Castile
Then came the white man and children to play around it and clamber over its vast expanse; families together round its basse, enjoy their picnics and have their pictures taken.
Many legends and other thrice told tales have grown up around the rock. T.D. Ashby recalls that one Tom Castile claimed to have carried the rock on his shoulder as he walked out here from the east, using it as a table by day and a shelter by night. When he arrived at Otter Creek Township he was so tired he could not lift it again but was proud to leave it to show coming generations the superior kind of men who settled and developed this region.
Other legends, less fantastic, deal with the original owners of the land-the Sac and Fox Indians, who it is said, used it as a measuring mark for their journeys from tribal seats. Indian chiefs of neighboring tribes met there and, over their pipes of peace, pledged to fight the invasions of the white man who would soon be over runing their domains.
Mrs. Avery McNeer
Many activities took place around the rock.
Helen Niswender said: "When I was a teenager, I used to climb up there and luxuriate in the fragrance of the new mown hay. How sweet and all-pervading it was."
Ruth Curtis said: "I used to climb up there and look out over the world."
An energetic photographer sent out word that if everyone who would like to have their picture taken by the rock would be there on a certain day, he would take the picture. Forty-one people showed up.
Mrs. Avery McNeer has the unique distinction of living all her life in the shadow of the rock. She was born on the east side of it. Her father was Elmer Curtis and their old house still stands, although unoccupied. Her grandfather was Moses H. Curtis, one of the very early pioneers there. Since her marriage, she has lived on the west side.
Progress vs. Sentiment
Said Lewis Ashby, an early merchant of Norwood, "The Rock has always been here and I suppose it will always be."
But Alas! The white man's unending quest for progress must be reckoned with. Some philosopher said, "There is nothing so permanent as change." Came the year 1952 and farm-to-market roads were interlacing the countryside. Jack Cady of the County engineer's office showed this writer the blueprint of the proposed Otter Creek road and gave the rock's statistics:
Glacial origin.
Volume 95 cubic yards.
Weight 118 tons.
-and it lay squarely in the path of the proposed road.
The bulldozers came in and with them the diamond drills and the high explosives. The big rock was honeycombed for the insertion of the dynamite sticks.
Then came the trigger moment, Mrs. McNeer sat in her home 40 rods away hearing first the blast, then the shattered fragments falling like hail all around.
There were tears. There was heartache in the community. One chunk showing half a honeycomb lies at the doors step of the McNeer home. Three fairly sizeable pieces lie buried at the bottom of a 20 ft. fill near the site. The rest lies in the road bed of the Otter Creek farm -to-market road.
Nothing that is, can pause or stay.
The moon will wax, the moon will wane;
The mist and cloud will thurn to rain
The rain to mist and cloud again.
Tomorrow be today.

WAR is a dying game, it's the truth.
Don't try it if you haven't play it before and don't start subbing again if you played it before.
WAR is a dying game, it's the truth.
Don't try it if you haven't play it before and don't start subbing again if you played it before.
thats a darn shame if it is really going downhill... i played trial and had some fun was thinking about getting it... but maybe ill reconsider lol
I play a 40 slayer SantyClause. Go look me up.
Other characters msnewbooty, goodpuppy and a few others.
What's your charcter name.
and also what "game mechanics" issue you have that are so dire its killing the game for u.
Server population has ALWAYS been the biggest issue, the games fun otherwise, and if ur on a high pop server u have no problems.
But i'm seriously waiting for the mechanical flaws that kill the game.
Worst thing about WAR for me was the fact that it lagged like hell when there was a massive battle, especially in keeps. It got close to unplayable, but that didn't really stop me.
This space was conquered by...
I played the game and loved it for the first two months. But then it became meh, mythic keep adding PVE content in a game that should be RvR oriented and some classes remain pretty much useless -.-. When mark jacobs left the game started to take a nicer step to a loooong right road that should had be taken waaaaay before. We'll see .. but EA Announce wheel of time MMORPG so i sense a fund cut on Warhammer Online
" Here we go our step so silent
Here we go our blooded trace
the Jester Race "
I have yet to see anyone give a real reason as to why the game is so bad.
The major flaw i saw was the server population. Join Iron Rock, you'll be fine.
Also the new patch was an attempt to bring a new type of PvPvE into the mix, not just PVE.
Also maybe ur the newcomer, read the patchnotes. The changed city seige to make PVE OPTIONAL~ hardly required.
I honestly don't lag. I have many characters across many tiers. Read a prior post for the name. Neither am i ever going to be a fanboy.
It's a pretty good mmo as far as the industry goes, and im just pointed out the baseleness in the coments of the forum.
So Why is it someone in this forum has to etiher be a fanboy or a flamer?

This thread is about custom maps created for QL with the purpose to train movement. Here a DL-Link containing all "created for QL" maps: http://www.mediafire.com/?uedb66qj17kx20n (Freakkilla´s maps not included, pls check his thread)
The files in the link above are encrypted. They dont work now. I made the effort to convert them with QLDEC:
How to install(windows):
First make sure the files are set read-only, otherwise QL will delete them. Then put them in your main baseq3 folder, the one that contains all other QL maps. Path should be something like
Harddrive:\Users\Yourname\AppData\LocalLow\id Software\quakelive\baseq3
(Appdata is a hidden folder so make sure u can see it).
Path for Steam Users:
Harddrive:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Quake Live\baseq3
How to play:
Start a practisegame(for maps with flags CTF) open console, type /map mapname for example /map raztrainql_beta3, have fun. Some maps also can be selected like normal in voting-menue, but not all(if someone has a explanation would be cool to post it).
In the following post i will list them with a short explanation. If they have Flags in there i will also make a top3-times scorelist. U can post your demos(like in my Fastcaps Thread ) and additional YT-vid if u want.
Please remember that these maps(exept dcxpracticebeta2) were created long time ago in open beta times. We had some changes in physics(stepheight changed+chainjump) so they feel different to play from the time they were released. This is the reason i not like to link YT-vids with old physics(also if there is no demo its not safe if they are cheated) even if they have better times than me so far.
Also a while ago [boon]Combo made the effort to convert maps from Q3 Defrag. Theese can be found here.
Spakk converted some Freestylemaps, read more here.
He also converted some Q3 runs and put flags in them, look here.
However i do think because these maps were made for VQ3/CPM physics they not fit so good to train in Quake Live than the ones build especial for QL-physics. Still they are fun

In today's CRAFT Video we make a color block mountain range painting using a technique you could use for a plethora of projects.
Subscribe to the CRAFT Podcast in iTunes, download the m4v video directly, or watch it on YouTube.
Inspired by the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains in my home state of Virginia, I created a 5-paneled blue gradient mounting range with only two paint cans. Using just one rich shade of blue and mixing it with various amounts of white gave us a really lovely palette to work with.
You could use this same technique on a dresser with multiple drawers, painting each drawer a different shade, you could incorporate it on a wall with big, bold stripes would make a stunning statement, or forget the gradient aspect and transform your stairs using different colors.
I first tried a mountain mural on 2 sliding closet doors that have since fallen off their hinges and been discarded. You can see my attempt here, and read the written instructions for a slightly different approach in my paint guide for Venus Zine below.

Flights to Athens from No info
Spectacular buildings, quaint narrow streets and unique gastronomy.
Fly at the best price with Vueling
Few cities have preserved their charm through the passage of time like Athens. Strolling around the Acropolis, you'll see such outstanding, world-famous buildings as the Parthenon or the Theatre of Dionysus.
But the city has far more to offer than monuments. Walking through the area of Plaka, you'll discover quaint narrow streets, along with shops specialising in gastronomy and crafts. And don't forget that from the port of Athens, you can reach any of the stunning and relaxing Greek islands, such as Corfu, Paros, Naxos, etc.
And to top it off, what better than savouring some of Greece's gastronomic delights in one of the capital's many restaurants, and treat your taste buds to such dishes as Musaka, Dolmades, the famous Greek yoghurt or retsina, a resinated wine.
Book your flight to Athens!

Home Stretch for the Molson Coors Beer Convoy
Landing on home turf – Beer Convoy/fermentors arrive at Molson Coors brewery on January 17th, 2011, 4:00 a.m.
It's an epic day at the Molson Coors Toronto brewery. This morning at 4:00 a.m., we watched as our six new beer fermentors, "tanks" rolled down Carlingview Drive and made their way towards the Molson Coors Toronto Brewery. It's been an exciting journey, and we're even more excited to get them up and running to brew more beer! 8.4 million bottles to be exact… (that's how many bottles of beer can fit in the 6 tanks).
There really were hundreds of people involved in making this convoy a success. Traveling from the Hamilton Port to 33 Carlingview Drive in Toronto, it took:
- 35+ police officers (from all 5 municipalities…thank you!)
- 20 Utility Vehicles… (Thank you Rogers, Cogeco, Hamilton Hydro, Milton Hydro, Burlington Hydro, Halton Hydro, Toronto Hydro, Mississauga Hydro, Brampton Hydro, York Hydro)
- We traveled 108 km
- 40+ vehicle convoy
- Passed through 250 stop lights
- Lifted, raised or took down 1,614 service wires
Thank you to team Challenger (Motor Freight specialists) and Mammoet (Heavy lifting and transport specialist) -amazing job by all. And how fitting to end the journey on the coldest day of the year!?
Also thank you to everyone who followed along with the convoy (literally and digitally) – your support, patience and interest was truly appreciated! If you took photos/video when we were passing through your area, we would love to see them! Please share links in the comment section.
Installation of the fermentors at the brewery begins later today…keep an eye on the blog for photos and video of the process!
