What's up everybody. Been a Pokemon fan since the early 2000's and decided to check out the new Pokemon Black and White video games, and i am hooked once again. I am close to my mid 20's now and have no shame in playing the video game (not big on the show or card game anymore) but...that's what brings me here.
To give a little background on myself, I studied Web Design & Development at Full Sail University and Web Design & Interactive Media at The Art Institute of Pittsburgh. I am currently work as a freelance Web UI Designer/Graphic Design along with a part time job (retail). Recently I worked for the railroad at Norfolk (Conductor) but did not pass my signal test with 100% so I was let go.
So yeah, I have no idea what's been up since 2005 in the Pokemon world but I have plans on being active at this forum and if I could help with any design work or blogging let me know. I might take up some classes in journalism soon.

Comments: These are great gloves for those looking for a tapered fit.
They fit tighter around the fingers but begin to open up slightly into
the palm then then more so out to the wrists. It gives a nice secure
feel for the stick in your hand but an open wrist to stickhandle
without restriction. It's a perfect compromise between a loose 4-roll
and a tight anatomical fit glove. The glove is made of nylon with
leather like accents and have held up well to regular use for over 6
months with no major breakdowns. The palm is very comfortable and
required no break in and I have yet to see any notable wear spots
despite using them 2-3 times a week and with grip sticks. The liner is
comfortable and moves moisture well and dries quickly after games. The
look of the gloves with their new slanted wrist isn't for everyone but
I happen to find them sharp looking. More importantly they are just
solidly comfortable, protective, and durable gloves that give me the
fit I wanted. So if you're looking for a glove that's snug but not too
tight or too loose, then these might just be the perfect match for

What Causes Fibroids?
Asking questions about fibroids is a lot easier than getting answers. They're the most common tumor of the female reproductive system: It's estimated that 75 percent of all women have them. But doctors simply don't know why fibroids develop in the first place or why they recur, nor do physicians agree on what the best treatment is.
These hard knots of muscle fiber and collagen grow within the walls of the uterus, sometimes protruding from it or even growing on stalks outside the womb. (See "Fibroid Types and Symptoms" on page 4.) Fibroids can range in size from the head of a pin to a grapefruit. Not all fibroids are troublesome, but when they are, the symptoms they can cause — heavy bleeding, an abnormally enlarged abdomen, pressure in the pelvic area, urinary incontinence and/or frequency, pain during sex, constipation, bloating, or sciatica (because of fibroids pressing on the bowel or a nerve) — depend on their size and location.
Risk factors for the tumors run the gamut from genes to body weight. "Research is showing that at least some fibroids arise from a genetic susceptibility," says Elizabeth A. Stewart, MD, director, Center for Uterine Fibroids at Brigham and Women's Hospital, in Boston. "Having a first-degree relative with the condition increases your risk." But so do a host of other factors: excess weight, elevated blood pressure, alcohol intake, not having children, stress, excess exposure to estrogens in the environment — and just getting older. Race plays a role: African-American women are about three times more likely to get fibroids than Caucasians are.
Hormones are yet another factor. "Estrogen makes fibroids grow, which could explain why they tend to act up with the irregular hormonal surges in perimenopause, then shrink and become asymptomatic after menopause," says Wendy Wilcox, MD, assistant professor of ob-gyn at Montefiore Medical Center, in New York. "Conversely, progesterone may shrink them."
To diagnose fibroids, your gynecologist will do a pelvic exam to feel for masses in the uterine wall. The next step may be a pelvic ultrasound. Occasionally, she may also use a hysteroscope, a thin telescope inserted through the cervix, or MRI scans to reveal the number and location of fibroids.
Because fibroids are rarely malignant or fatal, they have not been considered an urgent health problem. Until about 10 years ago, there was no major funding for fibroid research. Hysterectomy — removal of the uterus — was the primary treatment. But in the past five years, new, minimally invasive surgical treatments have become available, and doctors now predict that fibroids will eventually be treatable without surgery. "I fully expect that the number of women who need fibroid procedures in the future will drop considerably, just as it has for men with prostate problems, who now take drugs such as Proscar, which shrinks the gland," says Richard S. Guido, MD, associate professor of ob-gyn at Magee-Women's Hospital, in Pittsburgh. Drugs that reduce the production or action of estrogen and progesterone are being tested in clinical trials. Also under consideration are drugs that target collagen, the fibrous tissue that is a major component of fibroids.
Until drug treatments become available (at least a year or two more), you have to choose a treatment based on the size, number, and location of the fibroids, the invasiveness of the treatment, recovery time, and what your insurer will pay for. One treatment may not be the end of it, however, because fibroids can recur, either because old ones were not adequately treated or because new ones form. But as the six women profiled here prove, you can find relief.

The Fix: Removing the uterus

Shon Successfully Defends Lehigh Invitational Title
A year ago, a final-round score of 72 broke a three-way tie to give Kelly Shon the Lehigh Invitational title.
This year, Shon turned in the best second round of anyone in the 46-player field, and no tiebreaker was necessary.
By four shots over Harvard's Tiffany Lim, Shon claimed her second straight Lehigh Invitational title Monday at the Saucon Valley Country Club in Bethlehem, Pa., finishing at 2-under with a second-round 69 after opening with a 73 Sunday.
The title is Princeton's 64th individual medalist honor since the program gained varsity status 22 years ago. It's Shon's fifth medalist honor, all in less than two years. She won the Ivy League Championship last April, capping a run of four medalist honors in little more than a year beginning with the Low Country Intercollegiate title in March 2012.
Harvard kept Princeton from a successful defense of its team title, finishing 12 shots in front of the second-place Tigers while placing four players in the field's top eight. Princeton and Harvard were two of three Ivy League teams in the nine-team field along with Dartmouth, which placed seventh overall.
The tournament concluded the fall slate for the Tigers, who began the season with the Princeton Invitational in mid-September before continuing on to tournaments hosted by Vanderbilt, Texas and finally Lehigh.
Princeton's results are below, and results for all teams are available at the PDF link on this page.
2. Princeton 310-302--612 (+36)
1. Kelly Shon 73-69--142 (-2)

ZF-11053: Updated PHPUnit assets to be more usable out-of-the-box
Todo: * Remove application & library bootstrap files (currently empty) * Add a tests/bootstrap.php file with ** APPLICATION_PATH & APPLICATION_ENV setting ** Autoloader started * Add content to the phpunit.xml file
I actually don't mind the set of two bootstrap files, one in library and one in applications, but they and the phpunit.xml file shouldn't be empty. Getting their contents automatically set would help new users to start testing, and also provide some consistent testing conventions for everyone.
Should there be two bootstrap files -- and two test suites in phpunit.xml -- one for the application and one for the library code?
These were created before some PHPUnit usage patterns and features emerged. Since the PHPUnit's config xml file has bootstrap support now, that is what we use here, that is how this bootstrap will be hooked up. PHPUnit assumes one bootstrap file per tests/ directory.
These files are being populated with the proper contents, ill have it committed later today-I'll update you what to look for.
Fixed in trunk in r23766, r23767, r23768 and in 1.11 in r23769.
I am very happy to write comment on this blog really you had provided very informative post in this blog. Really it had made me know something today. Thanks for the stuff which made me realized some thing.
Learning which insurance plan cover to choose might be difficult. It is essential that you just look for protection plan which resources the level of protection you will need, and at a cost you can deal with. Turn into well-informed on what you require from the vehicle insurance plan plan in advance of purchasing 1. Study more to identify ways to acquire the best vehicle insurance plan for your needs and funds.

A Cycling Jersey that Represents Where You Ride!
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
Enlarge to see the watermark details on the front
Check out the sizing chart information
Introducing our 2013 Homegrown Colorado Cycling jersey made with one of our favorite local growing custom cycling clothing company, Alchemist. Every year we work with our clothing designers to make a design where riders can say, "this represents where I ride". Our first jersey we made was with Panache, and one I still really love, had a map of the Boulder/Denver area watermarked on the jersey. Now, time warp to today, our 2013 jersey has all of your favorite bike routes in the Boulder/Denver area watermarked on the front and the Colorado flag on the sleeves and pockets. Why wear some euro team jersey when you can get one that stands behind where you ride, locally! But we went further this year to not only make the design feel local but we choose to go with a jersey that was made in the USA (extremely rare), and extremely green friendly construction. This jersey is by far the best quality constructed jersey we have ever made, looks pro and feels like a skin suit. Get yours today!
Why Alchemist? Customer care and common good company culture match. Having been in the cycling world for years, I have always been amazed at the terrible customer support many of the teams I have been a part of have received. Slow communication, much later than promised and little desire to be a part of the design process. I'd have to say all previous non-local companies have been disappointing. In today's world of Google Drive, email, texting and such working with a company remotely should not be a big deal, but it is and having that local "go-to" company to sit down and talk with you about your jersey, budget and design is crucial. Never underestimate the power of working local!
In addition to a great design that really represents there are a handful of technical reasons why you should have this jersey.
- Jersey is 88% recycled poly. Made from recycled plastic bottles.
- The feel of the fabric was described by a customer as "like riding in 10,000 thread count sheets". Really smooth.
- Fabric is made in the USA.
- Jersey is assembled in the USA.
- Manufacturing facility employees have full benefits and retirement plan
- Manufacturing facility and Alchemist Headquarters are both solar powered
- Honestly, the flatlock stitching is some of the best I've seen. I think we are offering a really high quality garment.

REALLY nice jersey

I would normally agree that $125 is too much for nearly any jersey, BUT, I just got one and it is the nicest jersey I've ever worn. Seeing the rising cost of available jerseys out there, this one is definitely worth it!

"The day my mom checked out, Razor Blade Baby moved in. At the end, I can't stop thinking about beginnings." So opens Claire Vaye Watkins's Battleborn (Riverhead), a gut-wrenching fictional portrait of Nevada—from its brothels to its salt pans, from the windswept Nevada Test Site to the menacing glitter of the Las Vegas Strip—and the people who inhabit it. There is Manny, the gay madam of the Cherry Patch Ranch; Catie and Gwen, sisters struggling with their mother's suicide; and a woman named Claire (Vaye Watkins, one guesses), whose father recruited women into the Manson Family. Watkins's prose, razor sharp and economical, intensifies the characters' longings, self-annihilating tendencies and rare moments of grace. A thrilling literary debut.

Nearly a year after a major landslide wiped out almost half of State Route 14 near Cedar City, the road is now open again for travelers, hikers, bikers, and fishermen to escape to their favorite Southern Utah hotspot, Cedar Breaks National Monument.
With some of the most spectacular views in the state, Cedar Breaks National Monument is one of Southern Utah's best kept secrets.
"We feel like Cedar Breaks is our hidden treasure," says Bonnie Char of the Brian Head Tourism Bureau. "With the road open, a quick little side trip to the monument often becomes the highlight of the visitors' experience."
Never been to Cedar Breaks? With beautiful attractions like Navajo Lake, Cascade Falls, Bristlecone Trail and a natural amphitheater that plunges 2,500 feet, the national park will definitely leave you with some unforgettable adventures.
And it's just as beautiful in the fall if you'd rather plan ahead...
Plus, the Utah Shakespeare Festival is now a short drive away on Highway 14. Brace yourself for some bloody battles as Hamlet, Titus Andronicus, and Les Miserables all leave the stage strewn with tales of war and revenge.
When you need a break from the drama, cruise Highway 14 and soak in the scenic views that surround the area. Towering pines, red rock formations and golden sunsets will have you wishing your camera had more memory space. Even though the road is now open 24 hours a day, there will be construction happening until September, so drivers should be cautious.
Check out our feature on Fall Getaways in our upcoming September/October issue for more on the surrounding area.

The question of abortion in cases of rape concerns many Americans. Should it not be allowed even in those cases, they ask, especially when they think of their own daughters.
It is understandable and natural to want to protect one's own daughter. But that's precisely why abortion is not the solution, even if she is raped. Rape causes a trauma, and abortion causes yet another one. An abortion does not un-rape a woman, but adds another layer of shame and guilt upon an already wounded soul.
The book "Victims and Victors" talks about studies of women who, having conceived through rape, had abortions, but then suffered more from the abortion than from the rape.
Protecting our daughters means doing all we can to keep them safe both from rape and abortion.

Utah is a vortex of outdoor activities, providing ample world-class winter sports and summer escapes. But each of these has a season, and consequently a yearly end. Still others, such as skydiving, require lots of time or money—a luxury most of us don't have.
Which is why uprooting sports traditionally held outside and transplanting them inside for year-round training and play has become a hot trend. The translation from outdoors to indoors isn't perfect, but it's always accessible and always fun.
No Plane Needed
Skydiving is not for everyone. To merely stand alongside the open door of a plane requires mastery over evolutionary phobias, each designed to keep humans squarely on the ground. But these fears also keep us from the thrill of flight—an envy-soaked longing as ancient as our fear of heights and falls to death. Above this emotional tug-of-war sits iFLY, a unique facility in Ogden that offers the opportunity to have your phobia-free cake and a free fall too.
Often tabbed as indoor skydiving, iFLY is a vertical wind tunnel that generates wind speeds in excess of 100 mph—fast enough to make nearly anyone weightless—and is one of only 15 such facilities in the world. Because a single session offers two minutes of flight time, or the equivalent of three jumps out of a plane, professional skydivers from around the world join more pedestrian crowds to take advantage of the condensed atmosphere of the tunnel.
Visitors don't need to bring any of their own equipment, and professional flyers provide instruction and oversight for each session. And it appeals to all skill levels and ages—the youngest flyer was 3 years old and the oldest 91. $49 for two one-minute sessions, 2261 Kiesel Ave., Ogden, 801-528-5348, iFLYutah.com

Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum wants parents to be extra super-duper sure that the video games they buy this holiday season for their children are age-appropriate.
In an advisory released today, he encourages the more than 40 percent of Americans who are expected to buy computer or video games this year to check the Entertainment Software Rating Board before plunking down cash or plastic for any game that will be given to a child.
"The ESRB rating system provides parents and others with age and content information which can be informative tools when purchasing games for family and friends," McCollum said in a prepared statement.
The ESRB, a nonprofit body established in 1994 by the Entertainment Software Association, has supplemented its ratings system with new summaries that include descriptions of games' content and surrounding context that may be of interest to parents. The summaries are available at ESRB.org.

I came across these Dove Cookies and Creme chocolates by accident while searching out the Extra Root Beer gum. I was in Target and just checked the candy asile to see if the gum was there, and it was, but I also found these. I was excited to see these Dove Cookies and Creme candies because I love white chocolate. I haven't seen any white chocolate offerings from Dove since the peppermint chocolates that they sell around Christmas. Excited with my find I grabbed a few bags, as they were on sale, and took my treasures home.
I remember when Dove chocolate hit the market back in the 1990s (when they had wrappers that looked like this). Dove has done really well with moving from just the candy bars to a selection of bagged chocolates in different flavors. They have a large selection of different types of chocolate available now, and this Cookies and Creme flavor is one of their newest.
Opening the bag, the chocolate pieces all have a black and white design on the wrappers. They are undone easily and each interior has a inspiration message. The one I had for this review read "Rick big. Win big". Inspiring indeed.
The chocolates are a nice creamy off white color, as good white chocolate should be. The chunks of cookie are easily seen in the chocolate. They are large and give it a real "cookies and cream" appearance. The chocolate has a faint aroma, but that of cocoa butter as white chocolate should smell.
The flavor starts off extremely creamy, with nice fatty notes of cocoa butter and a subtle notes of chocolate and vanilla. The cookie pieces are delightfully crunchy, but they have no real flavor from what I can tell. Together you get this wonderful creamy and crunchy contrast. You get the flavors of nice white chocolate accented with the cookie bits. They're fun to eat, and the fact that they're in single pieces makes it easy to ration them. Even though I admit I've eaten more than anticipated on more than one occasion.
I really enjoyed this candy, and I've been recommending them to my friends who enjoy the Hershey's Cookie'n'Creme bar. "Why?" do you ask, well, it's because they are made with better ingredients than the Hershey's version (but they are also more expensive). In this case you pay for quality. I commend Dove for these, and I hope they will stick around for a long time.
Rating: Will Buy Again

Ranked among the nation's most integrated healthcare systems, Community Health Network is Central Indiana's leader in providing convenient access to exceptional healthcare services, where and when patients need them—in hospitals, health pavilions, workplaces, schools and homes.
As children grow and develop, they can be easily influenced by what they see and hear, especially television. While television programs can be educational, many children watch too much television. TV programs can show children violent behavior that you do not want them to imitate, or that can cause fear. TV may also show children poor eating habits through commercials for high-calorie, low-nutrient foods. Too much TV watching can also take away time from reading, studying, learning activities, play, and/or exercise. Television can also show alcohol and/or drug use, smoking, and sexual behavior before a child is emotionally ready to understand these issues and practice good decision making.
Parents can help decrease the harmful effects of television watching by screening the type of programming and limiting the amount of time a child watches television. The following are suggestions for helping set good television viewing habits:

Secretary of the Commonwealth Carol Aichele's message on important X-ray Amnesty Registration Program
"Protecting public health and safety,'' is the first line in the Department of State's motto. That is a goal which we share with all of you as professional license holders. To this end, we are passing along information we received from the Department of Environmental Protection concerning X-ray machines. As you are aware, operating these machines properly and keeping them calibrated are important in keeping the public safe while providing important health results to your patients.
Registration of these machines is important because it enables DEP to track and inspect these machines, as required by law. The news release below details an opportunity for anyone who has an unregistered X-ray machine to come into compliance with the law without facing a penalty.I encourage any of you in this situation to take advantage of this opportunity, as we continue to do our best to provide Pennsylvanians with top notch service while upholding that pledge to protect public health and safety.
DEP Announces X-ray Registration Fee Amnesty Program
Harrisburg – The Department of Environmental Protection will begin a three-month amnesty program on June 1 to help identify unregistered X-ray machines and bring operators into compliance.
"This initiative offers a limited-time opportunity for medical providers to come into regulatory compliance without suffering a penalty," DEP Secretary Mike Krancer said. "The registration and inspection program is essential to safeguard all Pennsylvanians from unnecessary exposure to radiation while maintaining proper diagnostic quality."
All health care providers with radiation-emitting equipment are required to register their machines with DEP. The providers are required to pay equipment-registration and inspection fees, which go toward Bureau of Radiation Protection operations.
The amnesty period will give unregistered medical facilities the opportunity to comply with current regulations. While they will be required to pay all delinquent and current fees, they will be absolved of any potential civil penalties related to registration.
The amnesty period will run from June 1 to Aug. 31. During that time, DEP's Bureau of Radiation Protection will contact medical, dental, podiatric, chiropractic and veterinary associations to let them know about the amnesty program and reinforce details of the agency's regulations.
For more information, visit www.dep.state.pa.us and click the "X-ray Registration Amnesty" button on the home page, or call 717-787-2480.

Menu: Pago's Outstanding in the Field
Yesterday, I posted an update from farmer Pete Rasmussen, whose Sandhill Farms will be the site of Utah's Outstanding in the Fields dinner party in July. Now I have the latest menu ideas from Pago owner Scott Evans and chef Michael Richey. Besides figuring out how best to showcase Utah's wonderful artisanal and local foods, and partner with those food producers, Scott's had to wrangle with permits and licensing and LOTS of paperwork. He writes: "So we have had a ton of discussion about this so I will update you with a couple menu items we are talking about. We have definitely wanted to wait and see what would be ready for us from Sandhill before the dishes were finalized. Current menu plans: Passed Appetizers Clifford Farms Deviled Eggs with House Cured Roe Cherry Wood Smoked (from Pago Farm) Utah Trout, Remoulade, Sandhill Haricot Verts Stuffed Squash Blossoms Salads/Mains/Bread Beehive Cheddar Gougeres Pago's Classic Cinnamon Beets with Sandhill Farms Heirloom Beets, Edible Flowers, Clifford Farms Truffled Honey, Nut Crunch, Yogurt Grilled Morgan Valley Lamb or Pleasant Creek Ranch Beef with Heirloom Fava Beens, Roasted Sandhill Porcelain Garlic We still plan to incorporate Strawberry Peak or Kings Peak Cheese in the mix too. Just some ideas for now." I also have heard that Kiler Grove, Utah's first and only urban winery, will be providing wines, and that High West may be working on a signature cocktail. Outstanding in the Field is dedicated to re-connecting diners "to the land and the origins of their food, and to honor the local farmers and food artisans who cultivate it." A restaurant without walls, its organizers travel across the country and host dinners in various communities, bringing together local food resources and chefs to showcase a region's best. Long dinner tables have been set up in fields, barns and orchards. Order tickets to the Utah event here. Read More


text: As we all know, alcohol has come under fire recently. It has some pretty nasty effects on the brain, it can be linked to 40 or so per cent of crimes, and it causes some pretty bad social relations for people who abuse it. Ok, so it's bad, who cares. My question is, can society do without it? Some say (Weasel Words, what's up) that it has become so ingrained in today's day and age that we are too far gone to get rid of it, that it is needed to help people cope with their shitty lives. Is this viewpoint true? I plan to make a detailed post about the topic, but I want to hear some opinions first

|Vandals overrun by UNC
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – There's that saying: When it rains, it pours. And that it did Saturday afternoon as the University of North Carolina swamped the Idaho Vandals 66-0 during a steady rain at Kenan Memorial Stadium.
"The positive thing is the game is over," coach Robb Akey said. "This was an ugly afternoon."
Indeed. The Vandals (0-5) struggled offensively and the defense often found itself with its back to the end zone. The Vandals turned the ball over five times (four interceptions and one fumble), two punts were blocked and the Tar Heels converted on more than 50 percent of their third downs.
"We didn't do a lot of good things today," Akey said. "I think we made every mistake you can make in a college football game."
The Vandals found themselves in a big hole quickly. Less than 90 seconds into the game, the Tar Heels – aided by a 32-yard gain on third-and-long, scored on a 36-yard pass from Bryn Renner to Sean Tapley with 13:32 left in the first. Four minute later, it was 14-0 when Erik Highsmith recovered a fumble in the end zone with 9:36 to go in the opening quarter.
Bobby Cowan's punt was blocked after Idaho's second drive stalled. UNC recovered it at the Vandal 5. Two plays later, it was 21-0 on Giovani Bernard's two-yard run with 6:51 to go in the opening period. Before the opening quarter was out, the Tar Heels were up 28-0 on Renner's 30-yard pass to Eric Ebron with 2:27 to go.
Solomon Dixon, with his second interception of the season, ended North Carolina's final drive of the opening period at the Idaho 6. The Vandals were their most productive of the game over the next seven plays only to have Blackman intercepted at the UNC 42 with 10:35 to go in the opening half.
In one play, the Tar Heels had padded their lead to 35-0 on Bernard's 68-yard run with 10:22 to go until halftime.
The Vandals' offensive woes – compounded by penalties, continued and they failed to move the ball on their next possession. The defense, however, stopped the Tar Heels at the Idaho 16 on Carolina's next possession. Still, UNC scored on Casey Barth's 33-yard field goal for a 38-0 lead with 4:51 left in the half.
Another interception – this one by Dion Guy, put the Tar Heels at the Idaho 13. Four plays later, it was 45-0 on A.J. Blue's three-yard run with 1:19 to go in the second.
The Carolina flood continued in the second half with the Tar Heels adding 14 more in the third and one in the fourth.

Incoming UCLA freshman Alison Lee helped the USA to a victory Wednesday at the Jr. Solheim Cup at the Inverness Golf Club in Englewood, CO.
Lee, a three-time Solheim Cup veteran lobbied for the anchor spot in the singles finals, got it and delivered. Her 3 and 1 victory over Jessica Vasillic of Sweden served as a bit of revenge and completed a stellar junior career.
The USA won the match 14.5-9.5 after winning the singles competition, 8.5.-3.5. The match was tied 6-6 entering Wednesday's matches.
Bronte Law, another incoming UCLA freshman, played for Great Britain & Ireland. Law lost her singles match 5 and 3 to Bethany Wu of Diamond Bar. In the tournament, Law recorded a record of 2-1-0.
Lee, who arrived in Englewood fresh off a run to the semifinals at the U.S. Women's Amateur, won her match on the 17th hole with a birdie. Earlier, she had built a 3-up lead after making a par at the 14th. Vasillic cut the lead to two holes when Lee bogeyed the 16th. But Lee secured the match on the next hole. The singles victory by Lee avenged a pair of foursomes and four-ball losses to Vasillic on Tuesday.
Lee told Julie Williams of Golweek, "This tournament, this format, playing as a team, it's so much fun."
The Junior Solheim Cup is a biennial Trans-Atlantic team match play competition featuring the 12 best female junior golfers (ages 12-18) from Europe and the United States.

A quick and dirty fix would be: Editing a part of Zend_View_Helper_FormRadio to:
// Wrap the radios in labels
$radio = '_htmlAttribs($label_attribs) . '>'
. (('prepend' == $labelPlacement) ? $opt_label : '')
. '_htmlAttribs($attribs)
. $endTag
. (('append' == $labelPlacement) ? $opt_label : '')
. '';
I don't think its intended to be fixed there however. I haven't digged into the id attaching for textfields etc enough to provide a better fix, maybe i'll do that later.
Please categorize/fix as needed.
I did more search an learn work on the Zend Framework and actually it is an inconsistency in the Zend_View_Helpers. So i'll recreate the issue there, with a more to-the-point use case.
Reporter indicates the issue is with another component; closing.
Re-opening. This becomes an issue with Dojo's RadioButton dijit when using dojo programmatically; without an ID, we cannot identify the element to decorate it as a dijit.
Resolved in trunk as of r10025.

The hair is tawny, thick and tousled to casual perfection. And it's all her own.
"It's funny because every day people compliment me on it," says Connie Britton, running her hand through that long strawberry blonde mane. "I don't have a Twitter feed, but I'm told my hair does. Apparently, there's a blog—I haven't seen it—about my hair."
Ryan Murphy, who cast her in the first season of his show American Horror Story, echoes the obsession. "She has the best hair in Hollywood," says Murphy, who is also the co-creator of Gleeand The New Normal. While she was starring in American Horror Story, he says, "her hair was its own side character. She'd run and scream, and her hair would swing and sway. I love her hair—and I love Connie even more."
It's hard not to love her, even from afar. Britton brings authenticity to every character she plays, whether on TV's Spin City (1996–2000) and Friday Night Lights (2006–11) or in such indie films as The Brothers McMullen (1995) and last year's Seeking a Friend for the End of the World. That ability has earned her consistent critical praise as well as three Best Actress Emmy nominations and, this year, a Golden Globe nod for her performance in her current series, ABC's Nashville.
"With Connie, you get the truth," says director Peter Berg, who cast her in the 2004 movie version of Friday Night Lights, about high school football in a small Texas town, and the spinoff TV series. "She does it by being very honest and present. She's able to find multiple bits of emotion in just a moment. Just pouring a cup of coffee becomes an event."
Actress Carla Gugino, a close friend since they costarred in Spin City, says, "In all these different shows, she stood out because she has this steadfast commitment to the truth. And that's who she is as a human being, too."
Since last fall, Britton has been bringing her sense of truth to Nashville. She stars as Rayna Jaymes, a long-reigning queen of country music whose place at the top is threatened by an ambitious young rival, Juliette Barnes (played by Hayden Panettiere). Rayna has a rich power broker father (Powers Boothe), a weakling husband (Eric Close) and a soul mate (Charles Esten), an ex-beau who's her longtime musical collaborator. Nashvilleis Dallascrossbred with All About Eveor, as Slate TV critic Troy Patterson waggishly dubbed it, Y'all About Eve.
Over a late lunch at an upscale bistro in Nashville's Belle Meade section, Britton candidly talks about the joys and challenges of her life today. But first the star, dressed in jeans, a white T‑shirt, a navy cardigan and Ugg boots, pulls out an iPhone to check on her son, Eyob, whom she adopted from Ethiopia. "My little boy has been sick with stomach flu this week, and I want to make sure everything is OK," she says. A text from his nanny assures her that Yoby (his nickname) ate a full lunch and is on the mend. Britton exhales in relief. "He woke up without a fever, and he hasn't thrown up since yesterday, so I'm thinking maybe we're good," she says.
Then she settles in to chat. "I'm always honest in interviews, to a fault, really," she says. She doesn't lie about her age (46 as of March 6) or her politics (liberal; last fall she cowrote a USA Today Op-Ed piece endorsing Obama for president). During an interview on Lifetime's The Conversation last year, she felt sure that host Amanda de Cadenet would press for personal details, so Britton pre--emptively told her that between working long hours and tending to her new son as a single mom, "I have no sex life." To her chagrin, that quote was picked up and bannered across celebrity websites.
So does she want to take this opportunity to clear up any confusion? Does she now have a sex life? "I'm going to say, 'No comment,' " she says, laughing. "I've learned my lesson."
It's safe to say, though, there's still scant time for romance, given her commitment to her son and her new show, for which she's working 16-hour days. "The schedule is insane," she says, "to the point where I lose a lot of sleep at night worrying about how little time I have to sleep and mostly how little time I have to be with my son. And yet the flip side of that is, he's doing great. He comes to the set every day. As working moms go, at least I have that luxury."
Nashville's creator and executive producer, Callie Khouri, says she wanted Britton for the series even as she was initially mapping it out. The Oscar-winning screenwriter of Thelma & Louisehad admired the depth Britton brought to her portrayal of Tami Taylor, the salt-of-the-earth educator and coach's wife she played on FNL. "She has a steel spine but so much softness around it," says Khouri. "Once she popped into my head as Rayna Jaymes, all I could do was feel really bad for all the other actresses who might audition, because unless they're Connie, they were never gonna be right for the part."
When first approached, Britton wavered; she hadn't sung professionally since doing regional theater early in her career. But, she recalls, "the idea of putting on all those sequins and walking out onstage and rebooting my singing voice—that seemed exciting. There's something really great, once you hit 40, about taking on something that genuinely, fully flexes new and different muscles. Because, man, is it scary. It's more than twice as scary as when you do it when you're 20."
Britton credits T Bone Burnett, the show's renowned executive music producer (he's also Khouri's husband), as well as vocal coach Valerie Morehouse, with helping her find her singing voice. "She takes her job incredibly seriously," says Morehouse. "Even if she's having a bad day, she does the work."
Is Britton successfully selling herself as a Nashville legend? While Reba McEntire, a genuine country music queen and the star of another ABC show, Malibu Country, notes that all of Nashville's singing actors "have a hard time keeping up with the competition of shows like The Voiceand American Idol," she says Britton is doing a "great job" in finding the heart of her character: "She shows strength in all the battles a woman in her position has to face." And in his review of the Nashvillesoundtrack for the industry website Music News Nashville, critic Chuck Dauphin praises Britton's duet with Esten "on the heartbreak stunner 'No One Will Ever Love You,' " adding that in the future, the actress might have "some real success" as a recording artist. A Tennesseanblogger was even more encouraging, asking, "How come the country music in a soap opera, sung by actors, is better than the stuff I hear on mainstream country radio?"
Britton was born in Boston, spent her early years in Rockville, Maryland, and then moved at age seven to Lynchburg, Virginia. Her birth name is Constance Womack; Britton is a relic of her brief early marriage, to a fellow graduate of Dartmouth College. She is close to her fraternal twin sister, Cynthia, even more so since they lost their parents. Britton's mother, a music teacher turned community activist, died in 2005; her father, a physicist and energy-company executive, in 2008.
She starred in all her high school productions, including Hello, Dolly!, and dreamed of becoming an actress. Incollege, however, a crummy -freshman-year experience in a Bertolt Brecht play led her to major in Asian studies instead, since she'd already taken Mandarin classes for her language requirement. In 1986 she spent a summer in China studying at Beijing Normal University. (She says her Mandarin is now too rusty to use.)
Years later, Britton returned to Dartmouth for a reunion. "Somebody was saying, 'I think Kirsten Gillibrand is going to speak.' I was like, 'Who is that?' because at Dartmouth she was Tina Rutnik. So I had no idea who it was and that she was a senator from New York. I was like, 'Wait a minute! You mean my roommate from China? The one I lip-synched a Madonna song with at the American Embassy?' "
The senator has no memory of making like Madonna, her spokeswoman says, but "she does remember winning a raffle there, and the prize was dinner at a nice restaurant, and she took Connie with her." In recent years the two have rekindled their friendship; Britton says Gillibrand helped her navigate the international adoption process that brought Yoby to the U.S.
After graduating in 1989, Britton enrolled in a two-year acting program at the Neighborhood Playhouse in New York. (She'd hoped to attend Yale's prestigious drama school but was rejected, which she says still hurts.) Then the hard work of looking for jobs began. "Mom and Dad helped [pay the bills], and I was with my then husband," Britton says. As a trained aerobics instructor (she got certified in college), she also taught in the city's health clubs.
That would explain the enviably toned body she displays today. But in 1994 a big break put an end to her aerobics career: She auditioned for -director-writer-actor Edward Burns, who was making his first feature film, a no-budget indie called The Brothers McMullen. Burns says about 15 actresses had already read for him, and he worried that his script was lousy because the scene kept falling flat. "And then Connie came in, and I knew that it wasn't the script. She was incredible," he says. "We cast her right there."
Brothers won the Grand Jury prize at the 1995 Sundance Film Festival. Within weeks, Britton had her first movie and TV agent and was taking meetings in Los Angeles. While there, she had dinner one night with Burns, who said he'd just read a script that had a swell part for her. He pulled the screenplay for Jerry Maguire out of his briefcase. Over a six-month period, Britton came achingly close to landing the role of Tom Cruise's love interest in what would become a 1996 box office smash. She read with Cruise and was told she was on a short list of two or three actresses.
It was not to be. Renée Zellweger landed the female lead. "Looking back, I don't think my screen test went well. I was still so green in front of a camera," says Britton. "For the subsequent 10 years, it was probably the biggest heartbreak of my life."
Cameron Crowe, who wrote and directed Jerry Maguire, confirms that Britton lost out in a "squeaker," adding, "We loved her real-girl quality." What he saw in her work then, and continues to see, is a "wisdom and spark that connects with men and women; she's full of charisma but doesn't lead with it."
Picking herself up after that disappointment, Britton became a regular as the forthright Nikki Faber on the snappy sitcom Spin City. (Her first line in the pilot episode? "It was just a run-of-the-mill orgasm. I didn't mean to scare you.") Acting on the show "was a great experience," Britton says. "I learned a ton. Michael J. Fox is a comedy master, and I got to be at his feet for four years."
The role with which she is most closely identified, that of FNL's Tami Taylor, came to her because Berg felt guilty. When she played the coach's wife in his 2004 FNL movie, her lines kept getting eliminated, first during filming and even further during editing. "I think they made my character mute," Britton cracked to a friend during the movie's premiere—and Berg vowed that he owed her. Two years later, he made good, offering her the role of the coach's wife in the TV series.
Tami Taylor, full of Southern charm but always the smartest and often the most opinionated person in the room, resonated with Britton and with viewers. "I have a lot of similarities to Tami at a core level," says Britton. "My values are the most closely aligned with hers of anyone that I've played."
On FNL, Britton and Kyle Chandler, who portrayed her husband, Coach Eric Taylor, created what may be both the best and the most realistic marriage ever seen on TV. Tami and Eric were a team, and so, professionally, were Britton and Chandler. Several times the two caravanned together, she in her car and he on his motorcycle, making a road trip of the drive to Austin, Texas, where FNL filmed, from their homes in L.A.
"Kyle and I shared the same point of view on how we wanted that marriage portrayed," says Britton. "We said early on, 'Don't even try to write one of us having an affair because we're not going to do it. We want to portray what most people who live in small towns do: They get together, live together, have good days and bad days. They make it work.' "
Chandler, who remains a close friend, especially admires Britton's insistence that the show be about more than football. "Most people don't know how much she fought on that set to get a woman's perspective across," he says. "And that was a great benefit to the show. We always knew that Tami knew what she'd given up for her husband's job. There was always that tension."
As FNL was finishing its run, Murphy, riding high on Glee, met with Britton about his next series, the lurid American Horror Story. He wanted her to play Vivien Harmon, a homemaker who moves to L.A. seeking a fresh start with her unfaithful husband but inadvertently ends up living in a haunted house. Her character would have sex with a masked man wearing a black rubber suit, eat brains and give birth to a demon baby. "I told her, 'Why don't you go from being the best wife and having the best marriage to being and having the worst?' " Murphy says. "She just laughed." Britton took the role, finding herself drawn to the risk.
The fall of 2011 was beyond busy for Britton. FNL ended its run, Horror Story began airing, and she was learning to be a mother, having just brought Yoby, then nine months old, back to L.A. She had begun the adoption process three years earlier, not long after her father died. "I was going, What am I waiting for? I had always thought, I'm going to find a man first and have my own babies before I adopt, but [my father's death] was a wake-up call," she says. She decided on Ethiopia because she had been working on a self-financed documentary (as yet uncompleted) about orphans there and was active on behalf of the African Children's Choir, a charity that promotes education for children in the region. (Sharp-eyed viewers will remember that Britton regularly wore an African Children's Choir T-shirt to bed as Tami on FNL.)
Once she'd set her course, Britton says, there was no turning back: "Being a single mom is challenging, but never in a million years would that have stopped me. You get an idea in your head, and you're going to do it. People can tell you how hard marriage is or how hard it is to birth a baby, but we do these things. We want the journey of that."
As for her son, she's enamored. "He's incredibly openhearted. One of my favorite qualities is that he has an enormous curiosity about everything, but he's not stupid about it. He wants to open and close doors, but he immediately learned that he'd better watch where his fingers are. Of course, I think my kid is brilliant."
Draining her coffee cup, Britton reflects on where she finds herself today. "My whole life has been building to all the good stuff that has happened to me in the last few years," she says. "I think—and this is ironic when I'm working harder and have more responsibility than ever before—that I now know the importance of grace and sitting back. I have a deeper understanding of how most people are just trying to do the best they can."
Tami Taylor couldn't have put it better.

Several recent studies have made the surprising (to them, not to me) discovery that many women over 50 are having good, even great, sex and that some claim they are having the best sex of their lives. One analyzed "sexual activity, desire and satisfaction" in a group of women over 40 (with a median age of 67) and found that the majority of them were satisfied with their sex lives and that the proportion actually increased with age.
Because I have talked to literally hundreds of those happy folks as research for my books, including How We Love Now: Women Talk About Intimacy After 50, I can boil the reasons for that uptick down to eight.
- You can separate sex from reproduction. In fact, you have to. Not being able to get pregnant removes the calamitous risk/life-changing blessing that has accompanied sex since puberty. Now the sex act is simply that, an act. Emotions may be as fraught as ever, but the act itself has become just another fun activity, like a game of tennis.
- You can separate sex from love. Of course you always could have sex with someone you didn't love, but since women who grew up in the '50s and '60s spent so many years invested in romantic myths — which linked sex, marriage and love — a purely sexual hook-up had a very bad image. Today, many women are on their own (whether through widowhood, divorce or never having married), and while they may occasionally get lonely, they are looking for a good time as often as they are looking for a long-term relationship. Relying on the initiative, smarts and independence that come with "second adulthood," more than a few of them have no intention of making a major commitment. The fact that for many women sex doesn't have to be burdened with commitment makes it possible for them to take an encounter on its own terms, whether it's "the real thing," a friendship "with benefits," or simply great sex.

Post subject: Whatever you're looking forward to--in small towns
I'm up for anything by Robyn Carr. I liked your review of the book (blanking out on title/author) set by the ocean, altho there seems to be a LOT to remember from previous books. I'll read the Kleypas but from the library: her last one was not a hit w/me. Is there a new Roberts/Robb -- I'm always going to read them.
The big name historical authors aren't capturing my interest as much as some of the just under the top tier group -- like Miranda Neville. She has a book out this fall called
The Importance of Being Wicked
. It comes out November 27th.
p.s. Hi Leigh!!

Hey, Janet
I will read the Kleypas from the library too. . She is one of those authors that I like okay - probably because I tend to like contemporary books more than historicals. Another reader posted the excerpt which sounded okay.
I still pretty much just read historicals of authors I know I like such as Chase and James. I haven't tried any by Neville . .
I'm sort of disappointed that Carr doesn't have a stand-alone but she has kept me interested in Virgin River.

I'm looking forward to:
Shadow Woman - Linda Howard [I love her older books so I hope this is along the same line]
Running Wild- Linda Howard/Linda Jones [I've never read their other collaborations and I'm not really a fan of cowboy stories but since this is a contemporary, I'll give it a try]
The Perfect Hope- Nora Roberts [Ryder is the only character in her Boonsboro series I was interested in, and this is his story so I'm hoping this is a good one]
Nora also has another book coming out next year - emotionally wounded hero gets helped by the heroine- and looking forward to that.
I generally enjoy Sarah Mayberry but after reading the blurb for Suddenly You, I'll probably skip that and wait for her next one.
