A Beginner's Guide to Wireframing. 35 High Quality Photoshop Web Design Tutorials. 26 Beautiful Free Retro Fonts. How to Get a Professional Look With Color. What makes a design look coordinated, planned and professional?
The answer is: 'color'. Not every project needs bland corporate blue to look professional. Planning color means creating a framework that describes which colors to use and how to use them. Color is the slipperiest design element. "Good" color is so closely tied to elusive things like personal taste and intuition, as well as technical considerations such as contrast and monitor calibration. But color is vital to content. In this article we'll review some techniques to achieve beautiful color palletes for your web designs. The best way to make a website look unplanned is to choose its colors at random.
Even when visitors skim a website's home page for the first time, the colors influence their attitude towards the content. Color affects how people interpret what they see as much as typography. Finding the right colors isn't easy, but the process can be systematic. Designers Know Your Code: Web Design Tutorials.

Create an Elegant Photography Web Layout in Photoshop View Tutorial. Which CSS Grid Framework Should You Use for Web Design? Ever wondered how all those slick "magazine" themes for WordPress and other platforms were created?
Many, if not all, were designed using a CSS Grid Framework - at least in essence if not in actual fact. That is, you can use an existing CSS framework or build your own from scratch. While it's possible to design complex web page layouts without a framework, it's arguably an act in masochism. In this article you'll get an overview of the current batch of Frameworks and which you should choose to use. All About Website Sidebars: Content, Design, and Examples. Design What goes into your sidebar?
Some site owners may choose to fill it up with anything - a place for anything and everything, just like a website junk drawer. However, a sidebar can be valuable real estate on any website, and depending on what the website's purpose is, can help further reach the goals of the website. In this post today we'll talk about sidebars in detail, from what goes in them to how they're designed.
Both can have a profound effect on how the website is used, and what content is highlighted. What's a Sidebar For? A sidebar is not the main content. A sidebar is most often for secondary content purposes. Let's look a bit now into what secondary content may be. Left and Right Sidebars Where main elements should go on a website is one of the first considerations in web design. Deciding on how many sidebars has an easy answer that depends on how much content is needed to be featured.

If you work with SharePoint or you are about to bring a SharePoint based intranet site into your company, you will be forced to wrestle with a question most SharePoint folks simply overlook. What do you call your SharePoint site? While it may seem like a small detail when faced with all the technical challenges and options that SharePoint presents, it can end up being a huge barrier to adoption if done incorrectly. Here are my 5 tips for naming your SharePoint based intranet site.
1) Don't call it "SharePoint"
Inevitably in every SharePoint project someone gets the idea that we should just call it SharePoint and not even try to come up with our own name or our own branding. There are many reasons not to call your intranet "SharePoint" or sharepoint.companyname.com I will cover 3:
By the time you are done, your intranet landing page will probably not look "like SharePoint" in fact if it still looks "like SharePoint" you probably did something wrong. Your users shouldn't know or care if it's SharePoint, Drupal, JBoss, or anything else for that matter. (I will admit that if you are also using SharePoint for collaboration, that the user will probably know that it's SharePoint, but for the Intranet they shouldn't care)
If your company's current intranet is built on Oracle, do people call it "Oracle"? What about before that when it was built on .Net, did they call it the ".Net"? So why would you call it SharePoint?
In many organizations, SharePoint has been attempted in the past and it was a seen as a failure. This is usually because IT found a disc labeled "SharePoint" and decided, "what the heck let's give this a shot" without any actual planning or preparation. But of course if you are reading this blog you probably have a dedicated team in place and are going to do it right this time. So why let previous bad experiences spoil the image of your new product that you are working so hard on.
2) K.I.S. – Keep it Simple
The Intranet name should be simple and preferably short. It should not be easily confused with another similar word (i.e. don't call it "Workplace" if your organization also uses the term "Workspace" or no one will ever keep them straight). It should be short and easy to spell, avoid words that are unfamiliar or come from another language…if a user can't spell it, they won't go there.
-a side note- I like using simply "Portal" or portal.companyname.com I have seen several organization use it for their SharePoint based intranet sites successfully, but as Kevin Keogh points out (http://blogs.captechconsulting.com/blog/kevin-keogh/portal-any-other-name) the word "portal" can have different meaning for different people.
3) Try this exercise
If your efforts are successful it will become widely adopted and used in casual conversation. One consideration that you may want to keep in mind is how it will sound when coworkers are taking about it. Example conversation:
You: Where can I find that HR Form?
Your Colleague: "It's on The Wire" or "Look for it on iConnect"
If you have a couple names in mind try them out in casual conversation, if they don't make sense look for a new name.
4) Get input from people outside your project team
You may have come up with the greatest name in the history of intranets, it could be perfect-short, catchy, sounds great in conversation- but if you haven't gotten buy in from your stakeholders it's useless. That perfect name that you are so proud of may also be the name of a huge multiyear initiative that happens to be the CEO's pet project. If you haven't gotten at least a tacit approval from the top brass you may be forced to change the name 6 months into the project costing you valuable time.
One suggestion is to have a contest where users submit names and the winning entry gets a prize. Another suggestion is to provide four or five options and having users (or at least your governance committee) vote on their favorite. Crowdsourcing the naming of the site can help users feel more ownership and gets them involved earlier in the process.
5) Consider you culture
Is your organization an innovative, progressive company? Then get creative and call it something abstract like the "The Buzz" (perhaps a coffee company). If you are a more conservative, financial institution then you may be safer going with something a little more generic, like portal.companyname.com or companynameNet (this can work for short or abbreviated company names).
Whatever you choose to name your site, keep it consistent in all your communications to users and you should have one less adoption challenge to deal with.

Update: New Bose SoundDock for iPod features wireless remote
Christian Hieber of iPodFun.de, a German language iPod website, has learned more about the Bose SoundDock while attending Apple Expo Paris. The SoundDock dock acts as a charging station and features an IR (infrared) port for use with an included wireless remote control for the iPod. Pricing is set at $299 and is expected to ship October 15. Christian had a chance to demo the SoundDock and said, "It looks like a fine, well designed and powerful living room item. The sound is amazing, although there is no subwoofer, it's okay with the bass. But it's pricey. It works with 3G/4G iPods and mini iPods."
While on stage at the Keynote address at Apple Expo Paris, Vice President of WorldWide Marketing, Phil Schiller revealed that Bose has developed a speaker system for iPod named the SoundDock. The photo to the right depicts a large rectangular speaker grill with an integrated dock for the iPod. Details about the new Bose unit have yet to be released.

Interest Rates Come Tumbling Down; Lower Discount Rate Seen as Weak Medicine
Holland, Kelley, American Banker
Interest Rates Come Tumbling Down
Lower Discount Rate Seen as Weak Medicine
By reducing two key interest rates on Wednesday, the Federal Reserve signaled its determination to recharge the economy. But some experts doubted the move would have the intended result.
The Fed cut the discount rate rate to 4.5% from 5% and reduced its target rate for overnight fed funds to 4.75% from 5%. Banks borrow from the Fed at the discount rate and lend overnight to each other at the fed funds rate.
Dozens of banks took a cue from the Fed and cut their prime lending rates to 7.5% from 8%.
Bush administration officials applauded the moves, which were expected for nearly a week.
"Lower interest rates will provide stimulus for economic growth, spur incentive for business investment, and increase consumer confidence," Treasury Secretary Nicholas Brady said in a prepared statement.
The long-term bond market displayed less enthusiasm. Although short-term rates fell, long term rates barely moved. The 30-year bond was trading at 8% Wednesday afternoon, two basis points below Tuesday's.
A Sharp Yield Slope
The yield curve is now more steeply sloped than it has been in years - "a ski slope," according to one economist.
That means investors are still worried about the high volume of government borrowing and the long-term outlook for the debt-heavy U.S. economy. They are going to continue to demand high rates on long-term securities, thereby keeping interest rates at levels guaranteed to put a damper on capital spending.
"The financial imbalances in our economy will simply take time to work themselves out," said Henry Engler, a vice president and money market economist at Chemical Banking Corp. "The accumulation of debt in the 1980s was high, and it will take a number of years for households and businesses to rebuild their balance sheets."
No Long-Term Lever
The Fed has no direct means of influencing long-term rates, which are governed by factors such as investors' worries about inflation and the supply of Treasury securities. And the government's large and growing deficit is being financed with huge sales of Treasury notes and bonds.
As a result, the yield on the 30-year Treasury bond is down just a quarter of a point since the beginning of the year, compared with a drop of two-and-a-half percentage points in the overnight fed funds rate. …

1950s Pinup Glam – Raleigh Boudoir Photography
In the 1930s Esquire magazine published a cartoon that featured the iconic image of the pin up model. As I come across old pictures of the classic pin up queens like Jane Russell, Jean Harlow, and Bettie Page I am inspired to take that classic pinup beauty and portray it in a modern, refreshing way.
I've blogged before about finding different sources of inspiration. Remember this image of Julie Andrews from the September 1967 issue of Look magazine? In that image I found inspiration in: " the casual elegance of how she is holding the cigarette, the strength of her arm that is holding her crossed knee, and the drama of such golden lighting off of the big mirror and her face." Three months later I found a place for those simple inspirations.
If big things come in small packages, then Bonnie's boudoir session one of those small packages that bursts open like a wind up toy when opened. Our day together started with a hair and make up session with the fantastically talented Tiffani Woodlief of Salon One21. We literally went to Tiffani with a picture of Jenny McCarthy and Gwen Stefani and said, take all that this is and make it 1950s glam. Within the hour she had put in extensions, curled and pined Bonnie's hair, and made the flawless transition in to full glam with makeup.
Next we checked in to a room at five-star hotel, The Umstead for the shoot. While I set up lights, shades, and props she changed in to a trunk full of carefully chosen authentic pinup girl clothing purchased online and at vintage stores. With that simple change of clothing everything came together. The pictures reflect a perfect balance of classic modesty and modern playfulness.
And my favorite . . .

Lynn Erickson | Sep 16, 2013 | North America: Wisconsin Kristin Zolltheis launched the Manitowoc Miracles Health Club in Wisconsin this summer with a weekly bide ride along the beautiful Lake Michigan coast. Six Special Olympics athletes along with Zolltheis and an assistant met every week at their local YMCA to begin a 12-mile journey, with a stop midway at their local Subway where peer education frequently was overhead ("Let's order a 6-inch sub instead of a footlong," and, "Water or milk are better choices than soda."). News of this fun experience spread fast, and their group is now up to 10 cyclists. What's next for the Manitowoc Miracles? This month, they are beginning a community walking club and are engaging more people in this Special Olympics Healthy Communities' activity by partnering with Holiday House, a local agency that offers employment opportunities to people with intellectual disabilities, the local YMCA, and the Manitowoc County Health Department.

I wear a IWB holster daily for sometimes as long as 12 hours at a time. I do understand what your concern is and I have never have anyone to ask me BUT my first IWB holster was a Crossbreed and the embellished belt clips to me were very noticeable, they did stand out, especially when the light caught them just right. Three years ago I purchased a Galco King Tuk and to me its just as comfortable but with much less noticeable belt clips. I have a friend who actually paints his clips to match his belts!
Aww, my favorite two are already taken.
Step 1. Look offended.
Step 2. Say very loudly "IT'S MY INSULIN PUMP (or colostomy bag)."
Why do y'all suppose these questions are always asked by folks who haven't started carrying a concealed handgun yet? Do your co-workers ask about the color of your shoelaces or the brand of aftershave you're wearing? My suggestion? Follow the legal requirements of concealed carry in a well-designed IWB holster for 6 months or so. When nobody looks, notices or says the first mumbling word about it, then relax. The truth is that you've very-likely been in close proximity to MANY FOLKS carrying a handgun & you've never noticed a thing. What makes you now think everyone ELSE is suddenly gonna' be so sharp & attentive?
I think you'll really be surprised at what people DON'T notice. However, I understand the desire to be discrete (concealed means concealed, right?). Depending on your situation, I'd suggest an IWB holster with velcro clips or a belly band for absolute discretion. Most IWB holsters I've seen have clips that can be swapped out.
For GOD Sake,
Out of kindness to your question, MAKE SURE THAT IT IS NOT OBVIOUS THAT YOU ARE CARRYING.
I don't care how close a family member, a friend or anyone for that matter is to me. I NEVER MAKE IT REVEALING OR KNOWN THAT I AM CARRYING. The whole purpose to conceal is to protect YOU and those around you..
"That's sort of personal, isn't it? Do you think the Browns are ever going to hire a coach?"
Rebuff, redirect, and move on. Nobody will press the issue.
the lighter haired female and the gentleman in black pants and black tee-shirt were wearing white shoes.
But yes I noticed the gorilla it was part of what threw me off.
I'd rather just keep everything concealed.
If you're about to start carrying, the question you will really want answered is, how is it possible that no one notices this lump the size of a bowling ball tucked under my pants that's so heavy it's just about causing me to walk with a limp? Pretty soon you'll realize that you probably could stuff a bowling ball down your pants and hardly anyone would notice.
My advice to you is, start carrying your holster now. Just carrying it empty will help you get used to having something there, and get you started on the path of figuring out the proper placement. No law against carrying an empty holster that is concealed. Once you get your card in hand and get to stick a pistol in your holster, the clips will be the last thing on your mind until you get used to your new companion.
If you wear a good belt, wear the clips on your pants behind your belt. It works fine and the holster clips are almost invisable. I have not yet had anyone notice my CBST clips, and I usually wear them on my belt. I also wear an untucked shirt or long sweat shirt. I was even patted down once prior to entering a concert. I had disarmed, but still wore my mag pouch. The security never mentioned it. Don't give yourself away by revealing "tells".

Norway headed into the men's relay having tasted victory at every World Championships since 2001, and just one defeat since 1991, with Northug and Halfvarsson going head-to-head at the death.
Northug broke down the last descent before being caught and overtook by Halfvarsson, with the Swede leading right until the home straight in Val di Fiemme.
However he just didn't have enough in the final metres to stop Northug, who turned on the afterburners to finish 1.2 seconds ahead of the Swede.
That marked Northug's third medal after gold in the 15km freestyle and silver in the sprint while Russia beat hosts Italy for bronze by 0.2 in an even tighter race behind Norway and Sweden.
Norway trailed Germany by 0.3 after the first exchange with Japan, Sweden, USA, Finland and Italy all part of the chasing pack.
By the second exchange seven teams had become six and the order drastically changed as Switzerland led ahead of Italy before Russia, Germany, Norway and Sweden.
Just 4.1 separated first from sixth while by the third and final exchange there were effectively four teams battling for the medals with Russia leading.
All four were still in contention before final descent with Halfvarsson and Northug breaking away leaving Sergey Ustiugov to cruelly deny the home crowd as David Hofer and Italy had to settle for fourth.

NewsOK Blogs / Thunder Rumblings
Nuggets from my notebook: Grizzlies 87, Thunder 81
Nuggets from my notebook from Saturday's Game 3 loss at Memphis.
- This space came close to being filled with details on how the Thunder weathered three storms in Memphis on Saturday night and got out of Game 3 with a mandatory road win. Instead, a second straight game of sloppy late-game execution stole the positive angle and resulted in a 2-1 series hole for the Thunder.
- "Do it differently, and it might be a different story, a different headline," said Reggie Jackson of the team's costly crunch time plays.
- There were six in all, two by Jackson. All came in the final 91 seconds.
- Jackson barreled over Mike Conley. Charge.
- Serge Ibaka let an offensive rebound slip through his hands.
- Jackson gave an ill-advised foul on Conley, who made the Thunder pay by sinking two free throws.
- Kevin Durant missed a pair of foul shots that would have cut the Grizzlies lead to two with 39.3 seconds left.
- Derek Fisher jacked a hurried and questionable 28-footer.
- Ibaka allowed another offensive rebound to slip out of his paws.
- "We live to fight another day," Durant said. "That's the good thing about the playoffs. We came in this building, which is a tough building to play in, and we played hard all the way to the end. There's no moral victories. I'm not trying to say anything like that. But we came in here and fought and put ourselves in a position to win the basketball game. It just didn't happen that way."
- What makes this one so much tougher to swallow is the Thunder did the things it needed to do. OKC took better care of the ball (which wasn't exactly hard to do after Game 2) and rebounded. One game after gobbling up 16 offensive rebounds, the Grizzlies got just five. After they scored 23 second chance points in Game 2, the Grizzlies got just three tonight.
- OKC turned it over just 14 times tonight after giving it up 21 times Tuesday.
- It's a broken record at this point. The role players have got to step up. The problem is things are getting worse not better. Every other Thunder player not named Durant or Jackson combined to shoot 16 of 54.
- Ibaka, Thabo Sefolosha and Kendrick Perkins started the game a combined 0-for-9.
- Ibaka turned in more terrific defense on Zach Randolph, helping to hold him to eight points on 4-for-12 shooting. So there's something to be said for that. His offense has disappeared in this series, and that's become easy to focus on. But he's progressed as a positional defender and supplied great low-post defense in all three games.
- Perk is another one. His offense has been brutal, and many want to criticize him for that end of the floor without taking into account what he brings at the other end. But the numbers don't lie. The Thunder's defense is better with Perk on the floor. Tonight, his minutes were limited largely because Marc Gasol didn't play much in the second quarter and the Thunder played small for much of the remainder of the game.
- To start the second half, the Thunder switched Perk onto Randolph and Ibaka onto Gasol. I have no idea whose decision that was. But it wasn't very bright. Perk has been doing a terrific job on Gasol, and Ibaka has done extremely well defending Randolph. But instead of sticking to what's working — Lord knows there's a ton that needs to be scrapped that isn't working — the Thunder inexplicably changed things up. It led to Gasol coming out and torching Ibaka for two quick buckets and then draining another jumper on Perk. Just an adjustment I didn't understand.
- About those things that aren't working. The starting lineup. It's gotten the Thunder off to bad starts more often than not in the first and third periods. Not just in this series. But also in the Rockets series. Last year, we all knew how problematic the starting unit was, particularly on the offensive end. This season, things were much more balanced. But that was with Westbrook in the fold. Without him, the Thunder's first string has regressed. Jackson has played as well as can be expected but he's not tag-teaming with Durant like Westbrook was to atone for weaknesses in Sefolosha, Perk and Ibaka's offensive games. The result has been bad start after bad start in the first and third quarters.
- Perk, Ibaka and Sefolosha combined to miss their first nine shots. Somehow, the Thunder survived that woeful start and trailed just 12-11. That was the first storm the Thunder weathered.
- The first field goal from one of the three of Ibaka, Perk and Sefolosha didn't come until 7:28 remained in the second quarter.
- The Thunder sat Durant at the start of the second quarter. It was a pretty gutsy move considering OKC had made only seven field goals in the first quarter. Not surprisingly, it didn't work. Memphis was plus-4 in the two minutes and change that KD sat. Those four additional points felt like 14 in this slug-fest. But it was only four. That was the second bullet OKC dodged.
- The starting lineup again sputtered out of the gate for the second half. This time, OKC made just one field goal in the first seven minutes and change of the third period. Memphis went on a 13-5 run to start the period, which, in this game felt more like a 25-0 run. As bad as it looked and felt, the Thunder's one-point halftime lead had turned into only a seven-point deficit. Another crisis averted.
- The Thunder was 4-for-20 in the third quarter and scored just 15 points.
- Given all the issues the Thunder had, the fact that OKC even was in this game seemed like a minor miracle.
- Sefolosha started the game on Conley. It helped limit Conley. But the Thunder can't be optimistic about losing Game 3 after resorting to one of the few "tricks" it had up its sleeve.
- Conley did struggle. After dominating Game 2, he had just 14 points on 3-for-9 shooting with six assists and four turnovers in Game 3.
- Jackson had to be more assertive and he was. He attacked from the start. Good sign. He let up in the third quarter, though, and said he felt like that hurt his team. In that third quarter, Jackson scored two points, took only two shots and had two rebounds with zero assists in 10 minutes, 23 seconds.
- Yes. Ibaka missed two dunks in this one.
- After the game, everyone from Scott Brooks to Durant chalked up the loss on simply missing shots. Selling that line would be much easier if this was a one game occurrence, not a trend for the first three games of a series. At some point, there's a reason teams miss shots, whether it's the wrong people are shooting the wrong shots, a player is slumping, injured or fresh out of confidence, or the opponent forces you into a tough shooting night. For all we know, the Thunder might be battling all of the above in this series. Saying they simply missed shots is fine. For them to possibly believe it — Ibaka's botched dunks aside — even after 12 quarters of evidence would be worrisome. Not only does it suggest the Thunder will keep striving to get those same shots, but players and Brooks actually have said as much. Leads you to believe little will be done to put players in better positions to get better looks at the basket.
- Generally, when a shooter's shot is not falling what does he do? Try to get to the rack, right? Get a layup or a foul called. Ibaka, though, just keeps shooting. It's one thing to remain confident in yourself and your shot. But there comes a time when you have to face the music and admit when something is broke and try to find a way to fix it. Ditto for the Thunder's offense in this series.
- Did you know that the Thunder hasn't led by more than five points in any game of this series? It's true. OKC's biggest lead in Game 1 was four. The biggest lead in Game 2 was five. The biggest lead in Game 3 was three.
- Memphis' biggest lead by game: 12, nine and 10.
- Wondering if the Thunder will use KD on Gasol for longer stretches. Not sure it's something the Thunder can bank on Durant doing effectively for a larger chunk of the game. The Grizzlies figure to exploit that if OKC sticks with it too long. But when KD is covering Gasol with relative success he's doing it in a small lineup that gives the Thunder its best chance of scoring.
- Tony Allen: X-factor…on offense! He had 11 first-half points, most of them coming from hustle plays and smart movement and timely movement that got him easy baskets or trips to the foul line. Allen finished with 14 points, one more than Ibaka and Kevin Martin each had. That can't happen.
- Up next. Game 4 on Monday night.

Cocoa Diablo
No... its not a burlesque dancers name... that I know of..."DIBS!" lol
Its a recipe for a spiced cocoa that I origianally put together into jars as gifts. It makes an awesome hot cocoa, and I like to drink it on particularly cold, dank days, or when I've got a touch of a cold.
I've also made cake out of it... I'm still tweaking the recipe a bit. Right now its nice, because the spices are not the first thing you taste... but I'd like them a little more pronounced, without being bitter or "hot".
Cocoa Diablo
In a sealable, airtight container, empty one can of cocoa powder. Take the empty cocoa can, and fill with brown sugar (don't pack it), add the brown sugar to the cocoa. Add 1/2 cup of dark chocolate chips, 1 Tbls cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ginger, 1/4 tsp ground chipotle chile, 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper. Combine all ingredients until well mixed, you don't want pockets of spices...
Split one vanilla bean and put into the cocoa. Close the container, and let sit for a week to let the vanilla infuse into everything.
After one week, remove vanilla bean and enjoy as hot cocoa... or my Cocoa Diablo Cake!
Hot Cocoa Diablo
On the stovetop, heat up 1 1/2 cups of milk in a saucepan. Wisk in ( I like a flat wisk for this) 2 Tbls "Cocoa Diablo". Keep wisking until cocoa is melted and combined with milk. Pour into a mug and enjoy.
Cocoa Diablo Cake
The great thing about this cake is not only how moist it is, but the spices in the "cocoa diablo" aren't too overpowering, but you can still taste them.
3/4 cup "Cocoa Diablo"
1/2 cup hot water
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1 3/4 cup POWDERED sugar
2 eggs
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/3 cups milk w/ 1 Tbls vinegar
Preheat oven to 350.
Butter a 9" square baking dish, and set aside.
in a large mixing bowl, combine the cocoa and hot and mix until the cocoa is melted and like a paste (the chocolate chips in the mix will still be relativly whole... thats ok). Add the milk and vinegar mix, the oil and the eggs. Wisk together until combined. Wisk in the powdered sugar, the flour, baking soda and salt. Stir until combined.
Pour everything into the baking dish.
Bake for 45 min. OR until the center of the cake is no longer runny. You can test with a skewer, but this is a very moist cake, so the skewer won't come out completly clean.
Let cool.
Serve sprinkled with powdered sugar.

I would like to configure it, so my server tries to resend the email after 2 Minutes if it was greylisted.
If the mail is in the queue for another reason, it can be longer.

On Sept. 12, while visiting with my grandchildren, who are 12th and 7th graders in Evergreen Public Schools, I asked them if 9/11 had been discussed in their schools the day before. Both said the events hadn't been mentioned.
Why not? Do our teachers not consider this an important part of American history?
Do they think it might be too upsetting for our young people to dwell on such things? It's very disappointing. We need to get our priorities straight.

Something I look forward to every Friday.... a break room full of snacks and a fridge full of beer.
Is this common?
I think I'll go grab a Jubel now.
Something I look forward to every Friday.... a break room full of snacks and a fridge full of beer.
Is this common?
I think I'll go grab a Jubel now.
It could probably happen here, has once, but I look forward to leaving, so *shrugs*
Used to back in the dot-com days. We even had some comfy sofas so you could sleep it off. You knew the good times were over when the fridge went from Czech beer to Miller
We have it first Friday of every month. Free alcohol, free food but most people bugger off after just one anyway.
Everyone here hates the job cause the bosses are arrogant morons. So happy hour's whenever we clock out.
Most big companies won't serve alcohol because if someone gets drunk and in an accident, they can and will get a lawsuit. Just ask your friendly lawyer. I have worked for a few fortune 500 companies and if there is an "outing" as they call it outside of work, the emails have to state "This is not a company sponsored event"..
I used to work at a place that had an account at the brew pub downstairs. When I had to stay late to finish a job, I could go down there to get dinner and beer. I'd head upstairs every 20min or so to check on the printer. I was a member of their 'mug club' which was 1 liter for $3.25. In the morning I could bring the owner my tab (often with 3 or 4 liters on it) and get reimbursed on my next check. That's the closest I've had.
My very first office job had 6-pack Fridays. I wasn't 21 until the last month I worked there. On my 21st birthday, I was taken to the liquor store on my lunch break to make my first purchase. I was also given a bottle of champagne by a coworker, which of course was consumed at work.
I had a job in college where a bottle of scotch came out at 5 p.m. or so. That was decades ago, when it was a regular thing to drink in the afternoons.
At the Christmas Party, the boss thought the regular receptionist would get waay too wasted to answer the phone. So, he hired a temp to answer the phone. By 7 p.m., the temp was wasted, and was seated in the boss's lap. And porno films were being shown on monitors in all around the office suite. Guys and gals who had hated each other all year were pairing off and heading to the darker corners of the complex. A strange sort of Christmas party.
These days, most folks I hang around with have their "happy hour" at a coffee shop. Same conversations ("the boss is an idiot..."), but no hang-overs, or paternity suits.
When we celebrated St. Patty's Day down under, everyone walked up the street to one of the 37 pubs just up the street from our office. Ran into management knocking back a few cold ones. Found out a beer or 2 at lunch is ok any day of the week. Of course, this was a government office, maybe the private sector is different.
History has a habit of repeating itself. Can you give me a call when it does?Originally Posted by alanbikehouston
In Utah??? NFW, we're lucky to get coffee in the break room.
Frankly I could care less about "OMGeeee SWEAT ON MY FRAME"
the beef
At my job, back in the day, the soda machine used to dispense Budweiser if you pressed the root beer button. It was all good for years, till one day when the companys insurance agent happened to be hanging around and went to get a cold one...needless to say all good things come to an end.
no happy hour....
but we have two bongs by the time clock....so every hour is happy hour

the site is and I am wondering why the colors are like this in the box if you look under events. In addition, why were my background images eaten? Any help would be gratefully appreciated. not sure why that happened.
Not sure what happened to your link but here's where I looked.
Your calendar looks a bit overloaded, perhaps shortening the Event titles and putting more data in the body. But if that's what you want...
Background image problem is in Appearance > Header. Not related to this plugin.
I don't know what you mean by colors, your theme is very black, white and gray.
Thanks Andy. DakotaLisa, can you confirm per Andy's last message? Are you still having problems in light of what he noted?
I think the problem I was having was the theme I was using. It broke and part of the theme disappeared and affected the way the plugin displayed information. I think it is better now. I have a friend putting the info in for me but I haven't really tried doing it myself. I will have to check the plugin and see what she was doing?
Thanks for confirming as much, Lisa. No huge rush on this since it seems you've found a workaround solution...but if you can figure out what was up we'd be happy to try and advise based on that. Is it OK to mark the thread RESOLVED in the interim, though? Let me know if not. Thanks!
Going to assume that it's OK and mark this RESOLVED.

CHICAGO (AP) — Two days after a surprise move to Tottenham, Clint Dempsey has been named to the U.S. men's roster for its upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Jamaica.
Dempsey, who sat out the first week of the English Premier League season while his move was finalized, was one of 25 players on the roster announced Sunday by coach Jurgen Klinsmann. The Americans travel to Kingston for a game Friday, then host the Reggae Boyz four days later in Columbus, Ohio. The teams are tied atop Group A with four points each, though the Americans have the edge in goal differential.
The Americans are unbeaten against the Reggae Boyz with a 10-0-8 record, but have never won a World Cup qualifier in Jamaica.

Iffco invests in foreign oil and gas firm
Feb 10 2010 , New Delhi
In an announcement on Wednesday, the company said it had joined hands with Americas Petrogas and its subsidiary, GrowMax, to set up potash and other fertiliser plants in Peru. One of the projects is for manufacture of di-ammonium phosphate (DAP) at a cost of $1 billion.
Iffco has bought 20 per cent of GrowMax which is setting up a muriate of potash (MOP) project at Bayovar in Peru. The project, to cost $125 million, will initially produce 250,000 tonnes a year. The capacity will be ramped up to one million tonnes within five years at a additional cost of $125 million each year. Iffco is the first Indian organization to make investments in potash assets abroad.
Americas Petrogas has struck oil and commenced production at Medanito Sur in Argentina's Neuquen basin.
Iffco's managing director, US Awasthi, and Americas Petrogas' president & chief executive officer, Barclay Hambrook, made the announcements in the capital on Wednesday.
Awasthi told media that Iffco was negotiating a buyback of 50 per cent of the potash produced at the Peru plant. The cooperative will use the supplies to make complex fertilisers in India. Currently, about 3.5 million tonnes of potash is imported by Indian Potash Ltd, a public sector company, for conversion into complex fertilisers.
Hambrook said both Americas Petrogas and GrowMax were open to Iffco hiking its equity in future.
These investments by Iffco are part of its plan to invest $5 billion in foreign projects.
Last October Iffco set up a 52:48 joint venture with the state-owned Jordan Phosphate Mines Company. Iffco will pump $625 million into a new phosphoric acid plant at Eshidiya in Jordan. The venture is called Jordan India Fertiliser Company.
The factory will produce 1,500 tonnes of the acid a day, all of which will be bought by Iffco to make phosphatic fertilisers, including DAP, in India.
The latest partnership is Iffco's sixth with foreign companies. The first was with Oman Oil Company. The venture set up a $1 billion fertiliser plant in Oman. Iffco has also invested in Senegal and Australia to source inputs.
Iffco as a group has an annual turnover of $7.2 billion and produces 11.2 million tonnes of fertilisers. It has 12 other joint ventures in insurance, power, rural mobile telephony, agro-processing special economic zones and commodity trading.

Man arrested on Oklahoma City homicide complaint in drowning death of 2-year-old at Lake Stanley Draper
Oklahoma City police have arrested a man on a homicide complaint in the drowning death of a 2-year-old girl. Allie Croom, 2, drowned at Lake Stanley Draper Thursday, Master Sgt. Gary Knight said. Donnie Reeser, 29, a boyfriend of the girl's mother, was arrested Thursday night, Knight said. About 5:30 p.m. police were called to Midwest City Regional Hospital where detectives began looking into the girl's death. Investigators developed probable cause to believe that Reeser was at Lake Stanley Draper with the victim. Reeser allegedly forced the child under water until she drowned, police said. Reeser was taken to Oklahoma City police headquarters where investigators interviewed him and subsequently booked him into the Oklahoma County Jail on a murder complaint, Knight said.
