|Dear Sports Card Show
Hi, I have the 2011 topps Albert Pujols 1/1 60th Diamond Anniversary card, do you know how much it is worth? Any help I would appreciate it? Just curious..I'm going to hang on to it...:)
Very nice card there! It's hard to put a firm $$$ figure on it. Some of the redemption cards for the new 2012 Topps Sketch cards are selling for over $100. My guess, for a 2011 Pujols it's probably in the neighborhood of $100 on the low end and $300 on the real high end. Very nice!
|Hello Sports Card Radio
I was just browsing your website and was trying to contact you to see if you would advertise a card show in which i am having. It is going to be March 10th, 2012 in Norwich, CT from 9am to 2pm.
Thanks for the information on your card show. I added it to the listings I have on my site. I hope your show goes well and you can raise a lot of money for the charity it's benefiting!
Dear SportsCardRadio,
Let me know if you have any other questions!
Thanks for the e-mail!! Sweet card -- I love the buy-back stuff and wish they would do it more often. Hope you get some more good pulls like this one and feel free to share them with us when you have time.
I collect baseball cards. I have been very interested in the myth about the Evan Longoria Superfractor - Superfractor Auto. I wanted to buy a box of 2006 Bowman Draft Picks & Prospects but if this card is already been pulled then I will not want spend alot on this product. Do you have any idea what the status on this card is? Has it been pulled/sold etc.
2. I really like the podcast you have and I'm happy it's free. It seems like just a few years ago you could go online and buy a qualify hobby box for half of what people charge now. I have been wanting to try to open an online business that sells boxes, cases, the basic things along with supplies. Awhile ago I heard one of your podcast about how selling supplies is the way to go and I really thought that would be a great idea. Do you have any tips about doing or even just thinking about this or do you think starting a company in such a bad economy would be a bad idea? Thank you for your time and I hope to hear back from you soon!
Thanks for the e-mail,
I don't know much about the Evan Longoria Superfractor. My guess would be that it's in the hands of a collector that either doesn't know what he has, or he/she doesn't have any interest in selling. It's possible it's still in packs, but the odds of getting it vrs. what you would pay are probably not all that great. I don't know this for certain, just my best guess.
#2 Right now is probably a good time to look into starting a small business because many people either went out of business in the last 4 years, or are delaying that process. Selling most anything online is a low margin business, but you can grow your customer base faster and cheaper than a traditional store.
I still think supplies are a good entry point because it would be much easier to maintain a website (the products don't change so you can setup a product page and leave it up forever). Also, it's probably only about 25 different products, so your inventory would be tight and easy to order when you got low. Finally, to start - you could probably get away with only $250 - $500 initial inventory, so the start-up cost is low.
My business plan would be to setup a supplies website on a 'free' option like ZenCart or something similar. Get SSL, and a domain/hosting for about $50-$75/year. Setup an account at BCW and UltraPro. Only order Soft-Sleeves, Top Loaders, Binder Pages, and some other small items in small quantities to start since you have no customers.
Then setup the site with all new product pages for your items..with photos and unique content about the supplies. This might take 4-8 weeks depending on how skilled you are at setting up a site. After that, you'll want to try and get some customers by using Twitter/Facebook - and maybe do a promotion where you give away a $40 - $75 box of cards if people signup for a newsletter or something like that. In 6-12 months, if you set your website up well, you should get traffic from Google searches, and that should keep the orders coming in.
I have a question about grading cards. What is the easiest way to get my cards graded? Which grading service? Can auto/memorablia cards be graded? And will getting my cards grade increase the value and would it be worth it. I really appreciate your advice and I hope to hear back from you soon.
If you haven't already, check out the show notes to this podcast I did about grading your cards - you will find links to the price lists and a video of one of our submissions to BGS. Don't let anyone sell you on another grading company - at the moment the only 2 I would use would be PSA and Beckett.
I was comparing some cards to the short print variation list and noticed that the Yu Darvish card has the same number as the CJ Wilson card. Is this a typo?
Same card # on the Wilson and Darvish. For some reason they went with the same # even though C.J. has no SP. Let me know if you have any other questions.
I saw your list of allen & ginter very impressive. The only thing I pulled this in a pack and did not see it on the list. I was wondering if you knew what it was? I can not get a straight answer from Topps they most not open the letter. I have enclosed two photos of the card. I hope you can help. Thanks for your time.
Thanks for the email. What you have there are Decipher Code Cards from '11 Ginter. I believe those were used in conjunction with the "Crack the Code" challenge that runs throughout the set. People trying to crack the code needed to see these cards I believe.
First off, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PUTTING TOGETHER PHOTO CHECKLIST OF THESE CARDS!!! You are seriously awesome and made my life so much easier. A million thanks! (all in all, you do a very good job with the site! I first visited after seeing one of my cards in your card price tracker and I've been hooked since! Thanks for all your hard work)
#252 Tony Gwynn
Thanks for the pictures. I am going to be using those on a page for the "mini variations". So the page I put up with the 50 Sp Photo cards are for the "full sized variations". Then, toward the bottom of the gypsy queen checklist page (i used the hunter pence card as example) they have these mini variations that supposedly were only going to be in the Box Loader packs. But I've heard people pull these cards out of regular packs as well.
I have been enjoying your podcast sports card show. It has helped me in a big way.
I am pretty small right now, but maybe a business that can provide both cards as well as supplies etc. The only names I have currently are names I found online, but I have no idea if they are trustworthy. I will feel good knowing your recommendation comes along with the company I use to stock my shelves.
Thanks for the e-mail.
Just wanted to share this. I'm selling a Jeremy Lin hoops #67 base card on ebay. It's now up to an amazing $61 with a day to go. Am I missing something?
It's linsanity!! Hopefully you got paid, I've seen them sell on COMC & card shows for around $5 - $8 but people tend to go crazy on eBay trying to outbid people. Good job on the sale, hope you got paid and bought something else cool with the money.
(Updated: Provided link with auction that ended at $61 - and confirmed payment was received)
I see that you have a checklist for the avatar trading cards on your site. Do you know where I could buy them? Thanks.
Unfortunately around the time that set was supposed to be released - it was cancelled. Probably due to some kind of licensing issue.
|I do not know of another Avatar set. If/when they come out with a sequel to the movie, perhaps they will be able to then issue a set. Let me know if you have any other questions.
I have 2 DeSean Jackson, both red, but one of them says 54/77, and the other card says 55/77. Everything else about card is exactly the same. Even the card number 268. Just noticed the regular card in white which is also card number 268, same picture but white border.........just wondering if misprint?
What you have there are 2 "Red Parallel" DeSean Jackson 2011 Topps Factory Set cards. Those cards are only found in 2011 Topps Factory Sets. They are "serial numbered" on the back to #/77. You have the numbers 54 & 55 in the total print run of 77.
I have a 2011 topps Chuck Howley S.B.L. auto 5/10 could you give a idea what it is worth? I really would appreciate it !!!
Hello, A 2011 Topps Check Howley Super Bowl Legends autograph - #3/10 - recently sold on eBay for $36.99. Your card should be in the similar ballpark - $25-50 or so. Let me know if you have any other questions. Nice card!
I got some 2012 tops baseball cards the jumbo packs i got 4 golden giveaway cards I need to redeem them how do iI do this, thank you for helping me.
|It will first ask you to put in your birthdate - then a user name and a password. You will then probably have to "confirm" the account by clicking through a link they will send you to your email right after you get done registering.
Once you are done with that - log into the same topps/golden site with your newly created username and password.
then you will see a box where you will type in the code. Type the code in exactly how it appears on the back of your giveaway card.
Let me know if you are have any trouble registering.
Hello! you've got a great website! I am trying to complete a 2011-2012 score hockey set. I need singles of mostly insert cards. can you please advise me of a dealer who sells insert singles for score hockey? I appreciate any help that you might offer. I have a checklist of the exact cards I need and would love to be able to obtain them all in one stop. thanks very much!
That's a good question - browse this selection first - if you haven't seen these already.
You can "make offers" on individual cards up to 50% off. Most sellers are willing to come down at least a little bit.
Each individual card will be shipped from the same location. But each card is sold by a "different seller." I'd go through the site - put cards in your "cart" that you need - and then when you are done looking see if there is enough of the cards you need to make it worth it for you.
Was wondering if you know how I can obtain the 2011 Topps Inception rookie checklist? I see that you don't show it and I checked the Topps website and they don't have any checklist for this product. Please help? Thanks.
Why are there no college decals on the helmets for Press Pass cards anymore?Thank you
Good Question, Press Pass no longer has the required 'NCAA license' to use those logos. That now belongs to Upper Deck. It's also why Press Pass does not show NFL logos or team names, they are strictly un-licensed draft cards.
I've been unsuccessful in getting a response from Upper Deck, therefore sending this email hoping you have an answer. Per the checklist on UD's webpage and your webpage as well, in the 10-11 The CUP Signature Patches subset, it lists that there is a Eric Lindros card (#SP-EL). I 've been working on this set since it was released last year, but still have never seen one of these Lindros cards anywhere - online or at shows??? Do you know if it actually exists? have you seen one or been asked the same question from someone else?
Your research probably suggests that there is no Lindros Signature Patch card. For whatever reason, probably at the last minute - they probably didn't have those cards. Strange because he has the limited logos and maybe a few other autographs that are live in the set. While nobody has contacted me about that specific Lindros cards, I have gotten numerous emails about other Upper Deck cards that are on both checklists - but the card does not exist.
Hey I have a couple of cards I can't find much about, could you explain more and possibly let me in on potential values. Thanks!!!
Thanks for the e-mail, the photo is perfect - those I believe are minor league cards that were distributed mainly at minor league ballparks during the day via vending machines or team sets. Some of the cards from this era have value - typically star players, and the complete sets sometimes have value.
|I think the Vizcaino might be worth a few dollars to the right buyer but I didn't see one for sale, you can see some of the CMC cards here.
Hope this helps, those are pretty neat cards I remember seeing when I was a kid at games.
First I would like to say I am your biggest fan ever. So I was looking over some of your videos and I noticed you did a card grading. So I have two nice cards that I want graded. A Jeremy Barfield gold refractor to 50 and a Oswaldo Arcia Purple refractor to 799. So if you can grade my cards I need to know the price, who to send it to, and what I should the cards in? Thank you so much for your time.
Here are some things that should help you out:
Hey. I started the Topps promo with the random redemption code to get a coin on the website . Its fun and all, but what's with the codes on the back-bottom of the 2012 Topps cards? Haven't collected in years and this was new to me. Just curious what that's all about
I believe it's some kind of legal thing. If you go to this part of their website: http://www.topps.com/cpsia it shows something about entering the code #. I tried on a 2012 Topps card I have but nothing really showed up. Sort of a weird thing they must have to comply with. let me know if you have any other questions.
I went to that "diamond giveaway" online game. I set up an account when series one came out and had a
So my question to you guys would be, what is going to be that hardest coin to find?
That's a good question, I would think probably the Mantle coin will be once again the most rare - but I guess it's anyone's guess. Congrats on getting the Mantle ring from 2011. I know people who entered in over 1,000 codes and never got it!
|I will be updating this page with information about the giveaway once it goes live and I'll try and find out which coins are the most rare:
when do you think Panini and Topps will release the first box containing Andrew Lucks rookie? and is that Panini prime signatures releasing in March, is that considered last seasons? Also, how much do you think retail is for a case and per box?
Panini will probably release 2012 Prestige Football around the same time they did last year - which was May 5th. Topps first product was 2011 Topps Rising Rookies Football which was on June 3rd. Should be around those times again this year.
Prime Signatures will be a 2011 release and will include those rookies.
Tough to say because there might be a little more hype this year with Luck. Last years Prestige did not have Cam Newton autographs. They didn't get a deal done until the Premiere Photo Shoot. So be a little cautious until you know 100% Luck has autographs in the product especially if you are looking to sell those cards. A case should be 12 boxes - around $65-70 per box on the cheap = $840-850 for a case. They might try to sell them for $85 a box which would be $1020.
Do you know if this years 2012 Topps Tribute Baseball offering will be released in factory form just like the regular topps factory set.
Thanks for the e-mail, for this set ... I doubt it because it's a premium set and they tend to only release the mass-produced sets in factory form. Your best bet is to try and collect this by hand on the secondary market ... or purchase from someone that has broken enough product to complete the set. Hope that helps, this set really took off in price last season, and it will be interesting to see if it does it again this year.

The October issue of Salt Lake magazine was wonderfully timely for me, as I'm just starting to teach my course in young adult literature for the fall semester. What a perfect resource to share with my students. The article ("Your Mom's a Twihard") includes a great list of Utah's YA authors, too. I also noticed the issue's Letters to the Editor, and one letter (October 2012, "More on Romney," from John Dedolph) suggested that Salt Lake magazine should reflect "conservative Utah." While Utah may be, on average, conservative, there's truly a diverse population, and I appreciate Salt Lake magazine's efforts to ensure that its articles reflect that diversity. Keep up the good work.
—Joyce Kinkead, professor of English at Utah State University
I would like to give kudos to my favorite "left leaning" Utah publication, as well as to respond to John Dedolph's conservative criticism (October 2012, "More on Romney"). In the land of Zion, there are dozens of publications that cater to the Mormon population. However, for someone who thinks Mitt Romney is a moron, couldn't care less about who made Eagle Scout and would never set foot in a Walmart, these magazines are nothing more than campfire fuel. This is what makes Salt Lake magazine such a printed prize. It's a publication for the rest of us, as well as the best travel publication for the "normal" people who visit our state.
Like Mr. Dedolph, I too appreciate the restaurant reviews and attraction highlights. More than that I absolutely love the "liberal social agenda." SLM is one of the only state publications that has the gall to poke fun at all the blatant Utah ridiculousness. Most of all, it reminds me there are other people—like myself—who have chosen to live in this beautiful state, drink at the bars, patronize the arts and support local restaurants and businesses.
—Jessica McWhinnie, Logan
Thank you for including me in your Best of the Beehive issue (August 2012). It's given me a lot of great exposure and is making a big difference in my business. I've even appeared on Ch. 4's Good Things Utah to talk about the award.

Today's photograph has just taken a place on my ever growing list of favorite archival images. This photograph comes from the Samuel Newton Weare collection held by the Annapolis Heritage Society and was taken sometime around 1900. While the identity of the sitters is unknown there has been a suggestion that they may be members of the local Harris family. We are currently in the process of digitizing the Weare collection and creating a small photographic exhibit at the O'Dell House Museum.
When I saw this image I immediately thought of the famous painting American Gothic by Grant Wood. One of the main differences between these two images is that the photograph is depicting life as it was in Annapolis County rather than Wood's somewhat fanciful image of Americana. American Gothic was painted in the 1930s in an attempt to capture the exact feeling which is shown in this turn of the century photograph.
I find it interesting to think about the process that was needed to set this image up. Someone has obviously gone inside to collect a pair of kitchen chairs for the couple to sit on. These chairs add to the rigidity of the sitters. It is this rigidity which helps to make the image so appealing. Like the painting the front of a house is an important element of the image. They sit, looking almost uncomfortable, in front of a house in which they have worked and almost certainly raised a family. This is not an image of domestic bliss but of strength and perseverance. The photograph is lightened by two little girls who are sitting on the front step. The one on the left, who was obviously not able to sit still during the exposure of the photograph appears as a blur. These girls add some humour to what could otherwise be a rather stark image.
All for now,

What house is this?ReplyDelete
I wish that I knew what house this was. It would make identifying the sitters much easier. The distinguishing features are the elongated fanlight over the door and the window with the peaked trim. The window also seems to be a standard six over six with an odd sidelight which would help with identification if they have not been changed to vinyl. I would take any suggestions as to the location.ReplyDelete
We now believe that the couple sitting in this photograph are John Millidge Harris and Isabel Harris. They lived in Moschelle and their house still stands.ReplyDelete

Panama City -- Loca McCalister-Cruel could hardly contain her surprise at finding out she was selected as one of five finalists for Macy's Florida Teacher of the Year. Certainly helping, the honor comes with an oversized check for $5,000, and a Macy's gift card for another $500.
The surprise announcement came during an ice cream social at Mosley, scheduled to celebrate the positive results the students and teachers achieved this year for the 10th Grade FCAT Writes test. Principal Sandra Harrison called on McCalister-Cruel, a twelfth grade Literacy Coach, and broke the good news.
Now, McCalister-Cruel will compete with the five other Florida finalists for Macy's Florida Teacher of the Year. That winner will be announced during a ceremony on July 7 at the Hard Rock Cafe in Orlando's Universal Studios.
Today, Mosley High School shared in McCalister-Cruel's win, with the school also receiving a $1,000 check.
The eventual Teacher of the Year winner will receive awards from Macy's including an all-expense paid trip for four to New York City to attend the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. The winner will also serve for one year as the Christa McAuliffe Ambassador for education, touring the state to spread the word about educational opportunities and challenges in the Sunshine State.
The five finalists announced Tuesday were chosen from more than 180,000 public school teachers throughout the state by a Department of Education-appointed selection committee representing teachers, principals, parents and the business community.

Anti-animal-research terrorists in the United States aim to intimidate biomedical scientists into giving up their research programs, and these radicals are growing bolder. They have planted bombs, issued death threats and targeted the children of scientists who don't comply with their strong-arm tactics. And the leaders of this cabal aspire to greater crimes. Tim Daley of the Animal Liberation Front has said, "In a war you have to take up arms and people will get killed, and I can support that kind of action by petrol bombing and bombs under cars, and probably at a later stage, the shooting of vivisectors on their doorsteps."
Although ALF and other extremist groups aim their attacks at scientists, almost all of their actual victims are unseen. "When research laboratories and university researchers are targeted and attacked, the ones who lose most are those who are living with a disease or who are watching a loved one struggling with a devastating illness," said Senator Orrin Hatch in a 2004 hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee. People hoping for a cure suffer most acutely when scientists experience these mob tactics. But they aren't the only ones. The extremists aren't too concerned about who gets hurt as long as it attracts media attention.
The 70-year-old neighbor of scientist Lynn Fairbanks was almost one of these victims. Fairbanks is director of the Center for Primate Neuroethology at the University of California, Los Angeles. In 2006, the Animal Liberation Front boasted of leaving a "Molotov Cocktail" outside Fairbanks's home. But they got the address wrong and almost immolated the porch of the septuagenarian neighbor. In 2007, the Animal Liberation Brigade placed a lighted incendiary device next to a car at the home of Arthur Rosenbaum, chief of pediatric ophthalmology at UCLA. Fortunately, the device failed to detonate, but the danger was serious enough that police evacuated the neighborhood while the bomb squad disposed of the homemade explosive. On February 5, 2008, a firebomb was detonated at the home of Edythe London, professor of psychiatry and pharmacology at UCLA. It was the second attack on her in four months.
As outrageous as these incidents are, they garnered little media attention outside of California. Even a six-figure reward offered by the City of Los Angeles, UCLA and two federal agencies failed to make the national news. But if the general public remained oblivious of this nascent backyard terrorism, scientists paid close attention.
Dario Ringach is a tenured professor at UCLA who walked away from a successful, funded research program in neuroscience after constant harassment from extremists. The barrage of insulting phone calls must have been unpleasant, certainly, but the physical intimidation from people demonstrating in front of his home was on another level: The demonstrators wanted him to fear for his family's safety. When strangers began approaching and frightening his children, it became too much. <!--pagebreak-->

Leaders in the music industry joined together in 1983 to establish the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation. One of the Foundation's many functions is to recognize the contributions of those who have had a significant impact on the evolution, development and perpetuation of rock and roll by inducting them into the Hall of Fame.
Artists become eligible for induction 25 years after the release of their first record. Criteria include the influence and significance of the artists' contributions to the development and perpetuation of rock and roll.
The Foundation's nominating committee selects nominees each year in the Performer category. Ballots are then sent to an international voting body of more than 600 artists, historians and members of the music industry. Those performers who receive the highest number of votes are inducted. The Foundation generally inducts five to seven performers each year.
Beginning in 2012, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame opened Nominee voting to fans around the world. The Top Five Nominees as voted by the fans count for one ballot entry, which is weighted the same as individual ballot entries submitted by members of the international voting body.
Ahmet Ertegun Award
Songwriters, producers, disc jockeys, record executives, journalists and other industry professionals who have had a major influence on the development of rock and roll. (Please note that in 2011, the Ahmet Ertegun Award has replaced the Non Performer category.)
Early Influences
Artists whose music predated rock and roll but had an impact on the evolution of rock and roll and inspired rock's leading artists.
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Award for Musical Excellence
This award honors musicians, songwriters and producers who have spent their life creating important and memorable music. Their originality, impact and influence have changed the course of music history. These artists have achieved the highest level of distinction that transcends time.

Good ol' Mitt — pitch underhand to him and he still manages to strike out.
What could be a better platform for Mitt Romney, than an Olympic Games for a platform to market his international organizational skills?
Yet, Mitt quickly turned his trip to the London games this week into a disaster, both in diplomatically and for his presidential campaign.
Shortly before being honored with a visit to No. 10 Downing Street, Romney blathered to NBC that he saw "disconcerting" signs in London's Olympic plans. The Brits said the bald statement left them "speechless."
Not for long—Prime Minister David Cameron had a snappy comeback for Mittens:
"We are holding an Olympic Games in one of the busiest, most active, bustling cities anywhere in the world. Of course it's easier if you hold an Olympic Games in the middle of nowhere."
By "nowhere," Cameron meant Utah, of course. The British described the PM's comment as a light-hearted "jab." How droll. Ha. Uh... Ha. We can only hope no one got it. Wrong.
OK, it could have been worse. They could have burned Washington again. (They can't be expected to find Salt Lake City.)
But wait! It gets better! Mitt closed out his stumble with an Olympic-class flip-flop! After meeting with the British, Mitt to reporters:
"I am very delighted with the prospects of a highly successful Olympic Games."
It's a record even for Romney: "Disconcerting" to "highly successful" in a couple hours.

Tuesday, January 8, 2013 would have been Elvis Presley's 78th birthday. Presley was among the first ever inductees into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986, an honor befitting his standing as the undisputed King of Rock and Roll. Presely rose from humble beginnings to launch a musical revolution, helping guide the trajectory of the rock and roll genre for deacades. But is "That's All Right" where the legend of Elvis began? What's certain is that "That's All Right" was Elvis Presley's first commercially released recording. He had previously made two private recordings, whose four songs give absolutely no hint of what was to come. Neither did two additional songs Presley tried before "That's All Right" during a faithful July 5, 1954, recording session. That Presley was recording at all is a tribute to Sam Phillips. Phillips' Memphis Recording Service was where Presley had cut his private acetate records and where he would sometimes hang out, trying to find an opening in the music business. Phillips contacted Presley after receiving a song demo he thought might suit the shy teenager. It didn't, but Phillips persevered. He called for the July 5 ...
In 1974, Elvis Presley returned to his adopted hometown and the city that gave him his start: Memphis, Tennessee. More than two decades after his first recordings at Sam Phillips' Memphis Recording Service, Presley performed five sold-out shows, the fifth and last of which was recorded and released as Elvis Recorded Live on Stage in Memphis by RCA. In this video, curatorial director Howard Kramer shares the stories behind some of the artifacts in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum's Elvis Presley exhibit in Cleveland, Ohio, including the "King of Spades" jumpsuit Presley wore and the handwritten setlist he penned for that memorable performance.
To learn more, visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum on Tuesday, January 8, 2013 – what would've been Elvis Presley's 78th birthday – when curatorial director Howard Kramer will lead a special "Gallery Talk," sharing stories behind some of the rare Presley artifacts on exhibit at the Museum. Click here for more info!

Elvis Presley is the undisputed King of Rock and Roll. He rose from humble circumstances to launch the rock and roll revolution with his commanding voice and charismatic stage presence. In the words of the historical marker that stands outside the house where he was born: "Presley's career as a singer and entertainer redefined popular music."
As far as his stature as a cultural icon, which continues to grow even in death, writer Lester Bangs said it best: "I can guarantee you one thing - we will never again agree on anything as we agreed on Elvis."
Here's 10 essential Elvis Presley songs. Presley built arguably the most impressive catalog of recordings in rock history, so it was understandably difficult narrowing the list down to 10 essential tracks. Let us know what songs would be on your list.
Released in the summer of 1954, "That's All Right" was Presley's first commercial single and a fairly faithful version of "That's All Right, Mama," the uptempo blues number originally recorded by Arthur "Big Boy ...

Make your photos, music, and videos a bigger and louder extension of your PC by streaming them directly to your TV or speakers. For example, flip through your vacation photos while they stream from your PC to the TV. At the same time, play your favorite music to your speakers to make your slide show presentation even more special. Or, use Internet Explorer 11 to stream content like your Facebook photos or YouTube videos.
Depending on what you already have set up, you might be ready to stream. For example, if you have an Xbox 360 on a home network and you chose the express settings when you first set up your PC, you might be ready to stream. In other cases, you might need to set up or change your network and connect compatible devices.
Here are some considerations about making sure your network is ready.
Home network. You'll need to have a home network set up. Though it's not strictly required, using a wireless router that you connect all your devices to might be best. For more info, see Set up a wireless router.
HomeGroup. While it's not a requirement, belonging to a homegroup can make it easier to share between your TVs, speakers, and PCs. When you set up a PC with Windows 8.1 or Windows RT 8.1, a homegroup is created automatically. If a homegroup already exists on your home network, you can join it. For more info, see HomeGroup from start to finish.
Sharing. Turning sharing on lets your PC connect to devices on the same network. You might already have turned sharing on when you first set up your PC or when you first connected to your network. If you're not sure, you can check that it's on.
Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Change PC settings.(If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, click Settings, and then click Change PC settings.)
Tap or click Network, tap or click the network name, and then turn on Find devices and content.
Several manufacturers offer devices that provide a great streaming experience. Other manufacturers don't always advertise that their devices are compatible, yet many people report a great experience with them. If you're looking for a new device or want to know more about device compatibility, be sure to look through both the Windows Compatibility Center and the Windows Certified Products List. It's not always simple to know ahead of time if you can stream to a specific device, so doing some research before you start can help minimize frustration later.
Here are more considerations about compatible devices.
A simple way to start streaming is through an Xbox 360. When you choose the device to stream to, select the Xbox 360 rather than the devices connected to it.
Many devices with DLNA certification will work with Play. However, a device with this certification logo doesn't by itself mean you can stream to it. Be sure that the specs for the device say it has a Digital Media Renderer (DMR) certification.
If you're going to stream directly to a TV or speakers, follow the instructions the device manufacturer provides to connect the device to your network. In many cases, this is as simple as connecting the device to your router with an Ethernet cable. Once you connect a device to your network and have sharing turned on, Windows should automatically find the devices that work with Play.
Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Change PC settings.(If you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down, click Settings, and then click Change PC settings.)
Tap or click PC and devices, and then tap or click Devices.
You'll see the devices you can stream under Play.
There are some limited cases where a device that works with Play doesn't appear there. Reasons why vary. Check with the manufacturer, the Windows Compatibility Center, and the Windows Certified Products List to make sure the device is compatible. If you're certain your device is compatible, but it isn't listed in Devices, you might need to add it manually or fix a different problem. For more info, see Add, remove, and manage your devices and printers and Tips for solving problems with Play.
You can stream from the Photos, Music, and Video apps built into Windows 8.1 and Windows RT 8.1. Or, you can use other media apps, but they need to support Play. To stream from the web, use Internet Explorer 11. (You can't stream from Internet Explorer 11 for the desktop.)
Open what you want to stream with an app.
Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Devices.(If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, and then click Devices.)
Tap or click Play, and then choose the Play device you want to use.
Windows shows only devices that can play the type of content you've selected. If you don't see your device listed, you can tap or click Add a device to try adding it manually.
If you want to stream media from File Explorer, tap or click what you want to stream. On the Play tab in the Play group, tap or click Play, and select the device in the list.
There's a lot of content you can stream from your personal media collection, such as the music and movies that you've made, music you legally own, and your own photos. Copyright laws prohibit streaming and broadcasting certain content, such as commercially produced video. If you're legally allowed to share it, Windows lets you stream it.
Once your content starts playing, you can use the controls in the app or webpage. You can also use the controls on your PC.
For example, use the volume buttons on your PC to open controls that let you change the volume, pause and play, or go forward or back. If you're playing more than one thing from your PC, tap or click the right arrow to switch between the controls for each. Tap or click the app icon to go to that app. The controls are available even when your PC is locked.
If you're streaming through an Xbox 360 with Kinect, you can use voice and gesture commands.
Speech recognition and voice commands aren't available in all languages for Xbox 360 with Kinect.
You can stop streaming without interrupting the content playing on your PC.
Tap or click This PC.

ZF-5404: Zend_Form removeElements for Zend_Form_Subform does not removes belongsTo relation on the element
cf title. This makes the elements stills belonging to the subform. You can hack the elemnt with setBelongsTo() but trying to mave an hidden field from a subform to the main Form I cannot find a way to do it. The element is still displayed with the subform name, you cannot pass an empty value to setBelongsTo(). Maybe Zne_dForm_Subform should add some stuff on inherithed removesElement() function to clean this belongsTo data.
Yes that is true, but how would you differentiate if belongsTo was set directly on the Element instead of beeing set through $form->setElementsBelongTo when adding an Element to a SubForm.
Or is it that this value should be discarded in either cases?

|WBB Releases 2013-14 Schedule
MOSCOW, Idaho—The University of Idaho women's basketball team will compete against a number of regional opponents as well as top national opponents in its non-conference season, featuring an opening game in the Preseason Women's National Invitation Tournament.
Idaho will open its 2013-14 season in Spokane on Nov. 8, as part of the Preseason NIT, against Gonzaga. Both teams are coming off of NCAA Tournament appearances. Idaho and Gonzaga have met in each of the last four seasons, with GU winning each time. Idaho holds a 19-14 lead in the all-time series against Gonzaga.
"To start off in the preseason WNIT is a huge honor for us," head coach Jon Newlee said. "I think it is a statement for our program, the way we finished last year and the future of the program is what they base a lot of that on."
The Vandals will play in two tournaments in non-conference play. The first being the John Ascuaga's Nugget Classic hosted by Nevada (Nov. 29-30). Idaho will play the Wolfpack on Friday and then either Cal., or Wake Forest on Saturday. The Vandals will also take part in the 33rd Lady Griz Classic (Dec. 6-7). Montana will be first on the schedule for Idaho and game number two will be against either Appalachian State or UC Irvine.
"A couple of the tournaments we are going to be in are going to be very strong, Nevada in particular," Newlee stated. "We will play Nevada and then possibly Cal., or Wake Forest. As we go on we play the University of Texas in Austin. I think that will be a great trip for us. The environment and drama out there will be awesome for our team to get used to right before we get into the conference."
The Vandals will begin their Western Athletic Conference title defense on the road against a pair conference newcomers, UMKC (Jan. 2) and Chicago State (Jan. 4). Idaho will play home-and-home series throughout WAC play. Joining UMKC and Chicago State will be CSU Bakersfield, Grand Canyon, New Mexico State, Seattle U, UTPA and Utah Valley. The Vandals will enter their final WAC Tournament, Mar. 12, 14-15, in Las Vegas, Nev., once again with the hopes of cutting down the nets.
"The WAC season is going to be kind of an unknown for us," Newlee commented. "I know Seattle has pretty much everybody back. New Mexico State will be strong. Everybody else to me is kind of a mystery. UTPA will be well coached with Larry Tidwell, but other than that I don't know a lot about the WAC going in."

A fight with Citizens Insurance may require you to travel up to Tallahassee!
The Castle Beach Club Condominium Inc., a Miami condominium association, sued Citizens Property Insurance Corporation for breach of contract over a disputed insurance claim. The case was originally filed in Miami but Citizens sought to transfer the suit to Leon County (Tallahassee) by invoking Florida's "home venue privilege".
On August 1, 2012, the Third District Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's order granting Citizens' request to transfer venue up to Leon County. The Court did this because it found that Citizens:
- Is a state entity based on language in the Citizens enabling statute which provides that Citizens is a "government entity that is an integral part of the state…not a private insurance company."
- There was no exception to the home venue privilege presented; and
- There was no waiver by Citizens of its home venue privilege
Castle Beach Club Condominium argued that the Florida Legislature did not intend for the home venue privilege to apply to Citizens even though the enabling statute (Section 627.351(6)(a)1, F.S. ) is silent on the issue. The 3rd DCA ruled that in the face of such statutory silence, the burden was on the condominium association to prove that the privilege was not meant to apply and that burden of proof was not met. This does leave the door open for our Florida Legislature to address whether or not it wishes to allow Citizens Property Insurance Corporation to retain this kind of legal advantage in the upcoming 2013 Legislative Session.
Castle Beach Club also argued that Citizens is a state entity but not a state agency or state subdivision and thus, it should not be entitled to home venue privilege. The Court rejected that argument based on the enabling language quoted above. Interestingly, this same Court declined in 1979 to grant home venue privilege to the Florida Insurance Guaranty Association (FIGA) after concluding that it was a business entity and "not an arm of the government". When you visit FIGA's website and click on their Frequently Asked Questions, the following is the answer to What is FIGA:
FIGA is part of a non-profit, state-based, statutorily-created system that pays certain outstanding claims of insolvent insurance companies. By paying these claims, guaranty associations protect policyholders and claimants.
That description certainly sounds more like a governmental entity than a private business entity but the current case law says otherwise.
Lastly, Castle Beach Club argued that even if Citizens did have home venue privilege, it had waived that right due to the fact that it had previously litigated similar disputes in Miami-Dade County. The 3rd DCA disagreed with this logic and countered that a waiver of the home venue privilege could only occur through actions in the same case, not different cases.
What exactly could this ruling mean for your condominium, cooperative or homeowners' association as well as for individual Citizens policy holders?
Frankly, it is another reason not to feel great about being a Citizens policy holder. It means you might have to worry about trekking up to Tallahssee should you ever dispute a claim with Citizens. It means that should Citizens decide its venue victory in the Castle Beach Club case is worth duplicating, the vast majority of Florida policy holders can expect to incur additional hassles and expenses to puruse their rights. Some associations may file in Leon County right from the start as a result of this case and others may continue to file locally and hope that Citizens doesn't move for a venue change or that the Florida Legislature amends the enabling statute to waive this privilege.
Isn't being a Citizens policy holder difficult enough at times without the added burden of home venue privilege now being thrown into the mix?

Unsuspecting visitors are startled when they order scones from a Utah menu. Instead of the biscuity clotted cream receptor they were expecting, they are served a piece of fried dough. No one can really say why Utahns call these scones. They're obviously related to sopapillas, Navajo fry bread, even New Orleans beignets, but not English high tea.
Skye's Scones
Skye Emerson got this recipe from "a Mormon grandma who fries them in lard." You can use peanut oil, safflower oil or any oil with a high smoking temperature.
6 cups flour
2 cups milk
3 Tbsp. sugar
1 Tbsp. salt
1/4 cup butter
2 1/4 tsp. yeast
Dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm water. Allow to soften, and stir once. Combine all ingredients in a medium mixing bowl, stirring in flour one cup at a time. Beat until smooth after each addition. Knead dough 5 to 10 minutes until smooth. Add enough flour in the kneading process so that the dough will not be sticky. Don't use more flour after kneading.
Place dough in a clean, lightly oiled bowl and cover. Allow to rise until double in bulk.
Punch down. Knead dough lightly and pat out to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut into squares and fry.
Honey Butter
Let a pound of butter sit out of the fridge until it comes to room temperature. Using an electric mixer or a lot of elbow grease, beat the butter until it's creamy. Dribble in 1/4 cup honey and blend.
Secret ingredient: 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
If you like it runny, beat in another 1/4 cup honey. Otherwise, chill the butter mixture in the bowl until it's stiff enough to roll into a log in waxed paper.

To casual viewers of MSNBC's Morning Joe, cohost Mika Brzezinski seems the ultimate in newswomanhood: sharp, sleek and always at the top of her game. She's written best-selling books for women about balancing career and family and getting the paycheck you deserve. And now a book about . . . compulsive eating? Wait. What could this overachieving size 4 jock possibly know about the average woman's struggles with food?
Plenty, it turns out. In the new book, Obsessed: America's Food Addiction—and My Own, published by Weinstein Books, Mika reveals that since she was a young girl, food has been her best friend and her fiercest enemy. Growing up in a family in which intellectual rigor and self-discipline were the norm—her father is political scientist Zbigniew Brzezinski, who was Jimmy Carter's national security -adviser—Mika believed that her compulsion to overeat and overexercise were "too trivial to mention" to her family. So she didn't, choosing to fight her demons privately. Still, viewers watching her primly lecture her Morning Joe cohosts and guests on the importance of exercise and nutrition may have gotten a clue that there is something a little, well, restrictive about her attitude toward food.
But it was an off-air conversation, during Labor Day weekend 2011, that would change Mika's life and that of her friend of 18 years, TV and radio personality Diane Smith. The two women, who are too busy to spend much time together, were out boating on Long Island Sound with their husbands. Diane, who then weighed 256 pounds, complained that it was hard to cook for Mika because she'd become too much of a "food Nazi." What Mika heard Diane say was, "Things are so easy for you when it comes to food, and they're not for me." Mika then confessed that she secretly struggled with the desire to overeat. But that revelation was just the beginning of an honest exchange: Mika had long been concerned about the health and career consequences of Diane's excess weight, and she picked that moment to tell her so.
Now imagine how this would feel: Your thinnest, most seemingly perfect friend says right to your face, "You are fat." And the biggest surprise? A positive outcome ensued. After a heartfelt discussion, both women decided to change their approaches to eating and to document their metamorphoses in a book. Here are their stories.
MORE: Before writing the book, did you ever talk about your food struggles?
Mika Brzezinski: Never. It was too embarrassing. Here I was, the youngest in this brilliant family, always feeling like I couldn't keep up—and I had this problem with thinking about food obsessively. No one else in my family had this problem; my mother would always say, "Have some self-discipline, Mika!" I thought eating was something I could control, unlike what I felt was a lack of intellect.
MORE: In the book you describe taking a sleeping pill and later eating Nutella with your hands in the middle of the night. But generally your bingeing had nothing to do with drugs.
MB: My specialty was eating entire boxes of cereal. My husband [WABC news reporter Jim Hoffer] would call me Jethro [from The Beverly Hillbillies] because he would watch me just devour a salad bowl of Cap'n Crunch. And I'd still be hungry after that. At work, if someone brought Dunkin' Munchkins, I'd eat an entire 25-piece box. At a hotel, while traveling on business, I'd order room service for three people and eat everything. And I had all these weird ways of convincing myself that what I was eating was OK—like, I'd go for just the icing off the cupcake.
MORE: Did other people notice your compulsive eating?
MB: Both my husband and the guy I dated before him have stories of spotting a plate of food in front of me, looking away for 30 seconds and looking back and seeing that everything was gone. Joe [Scarborough, her Morning Joe cohost] talks about a luncheon we went to in Orange County, California. There was some big, gross, breaded chicken stuffed with cheese, along with fried potatoes. Joe looked away for one minute. By the time he looked back, I had inhaled the plate. The entire plate of food.
MORE: The way you tell it, I'm laughing, but it's not really funny, because if you can do that in 60 seconds, you're not actually enjoying anything.
MB: No, and it hurts your digestive system. But food is the thing I could count on. Food always loved me back.
MORE: In the book, you say you tried to be bulimic but weren't really good at it.
MB: I was terrible. My eyes got really red, and I knew I was hurting my teeth.
MORE: So your eating disorder took other forms.
MB: There were these constant stupid negotiations with myself: "I can eat the Domino's pizza if I run 10 miles afterward." That's what I'd do after bingeing—go for punishing runs.
MORE: Did you ever get seriously underweight?
MB: Oh yeah, absolutely. And—let me tell you, this is really messed up—that's when I got the most compliments. But if you examined me closely, I looked my least healthy. My hair was thin, and under the makeup my eyes were red and my face was puffy.
MORE: And yet in the book you say unequivocally that it's important to be thin for a job in front of the camera. You are not at all critical of the woman who interviewed you for an anchor slot and told you to come back after you lost weight.
MB: She was right. I lost about 15 pounds and really pulled myself together, and then all of a sudden I started getting attention and job offers.
MORE: You say you've gained a few pounds since you started the book. Do you have a number on the scale that it upsets you to go over?
MB: Yes. It's 130.
MORE: How tall are you?
MB: Five foot six.
MORE: So you're not happy if you weigh 133?
MB: Exactly! [To her assistant] Emily, will you grab the scale out of the master bedroom and bring it out here? We'll see if I'm happy today. [When Brzezinski sees she weighs 133, she says, "I'm working on believing 133 is right where I should be."]
MORE: What did you learn by talking to Diane about her eating?
MB: Our professional fortunes were very different because of our weight, but Diane and I were doing the same crazy things. We were both going to the local Price Chopper on Saturday night. We'd fill the cart and then gorge all night. That was my idea of a really good Saturday evening.
MORE: It was such a shocking thing to do, telling a friend she was fat. Yet against all odds, it brought you together.
MB: Confronting Diane really turned out to be an even bigger intervention for me. Because while she went through hell losing 66 pounds, I also had to get help. To write this book, I had to see a therapist, and I realized my problems were worse than I'd ever thought.
MORE: How has writing this book changed your routine?
MB: I made a commitment to be OK with missing a couple of days of exercising, to let myself exercise four or five times a week and not every day. I'm also trying to not kill myself over what I eat.
MORE: What would you tell people who read your book and are struggling with the same obsessive compulsions about food?
MB: [Tearing up] The subject is still so embarrassing for me, but I am just hoping people will read this book and, if they have a problem, seek help. I wish I'd dealt with this problem much earlier, because obsessing about food is a terrible waste of time. I never want my daughters to spend so much of their lives consumed by this.
MORE: Boy, this is quite a story. And I hear you're not the only one in your family who has gotten healthier.
Diane Smith: Yes. My husband [Thomas Woodruff, an economist] has lost 45 pounds—and our dog, Chauncy, has lost 10!
MORE: Let's talk about your eating history. Was food a concern when you were a child?
DS: I have three sisters and a brother, and they didn't have weight issues. One of my sisters used to wear a rubber band as a belt! But I have been shopping for plus sizes on and off since I was a child. My mother was always putting my dad and me on a diet.
MORE: Were you an emotional eater?
DS: I can definitely trace periods of overeating to tough times. My college boyfriend was killed in a car crash—that's when I first started reallygaining. And then, when I got downsized from the best job I'd ever had, as a radio talk show host, I gained a lot after that, too.
But once you have one health problem from extra weight, other -problems—and sometimes more weight gain—follow. In my effort to lose weight before I turned 50, Istarted a vigorous gym program and got stress fractures in my feet. So I couldn't exercise much. And then I had hip problems, too. In 2011, I thought I'd never be able to exercise rigorously again.
MORE: That Labor Day weekend when Mika said you were fat—did you take the anchor of your boat and swing it at her head?
DS: No! At first I was taken aback and very hurt. But she started talking about her own eating issues. I'd often joked about how of course those Jenny Craig spokespeople could lose weight: They were being paid. So that day Mika offered to split the money from writing a book together, and I could use that to lose weight, by having bariatric surgery, going to a personal trainer, whatever I wanted.
Mika and I met while covering stories in Connecticut, but we got to know each other better through her husband, Jim, who was an investigative reporter at the New Haven ABC affiliate where I was a news anchor. We really bonded when she had a baby while Jim was out of town and I was her birth coach.
So how could I be mad? This was a woman I'd been with when she gave birth. And look, I needed a major shake-up. After decades of losing and gaining and losing and gaining again, I needed something drastic. I spent years wearing nothing but black pantsuits and trying to pretend it was fine.
MORE: How did you lose weight?
DS: As an alternative to bariatric surgery, I joined an outpatient -hospital-based program called Take Off. I started in mid-May 2012, and as of March 13, 2013, I have lost 66 pounds. It involves a dramatic low-calorie diet, with two or three protein shakes a day, and now also some vegetables and salad and sometimes a little extra protein, like chicken or fish or an egg.
My goal was to stay on this until I lost 75 pounds, but I may stay on it longer. I needed to break my bad habits and start over. After a couple of months, a nutritionist helps you learn to eat normal foods again. I'll be working on learning behavior modification and portion control.
MORE: Talk a little about your trainer and your exercise program.
DS: His name is D'Mario Sowah. He is from Africa, and he is amazing. He's worked with me through the toughest times. I began with him in November 2011, to improve my balance and mobility as well as lose a little weight. In February 2012, I had a total hip replacement and stayed out of the gym for eight weeks. Then I went back to D'Mario and have been training three or four times a week ever since.
When I first met D'Mario, he said the most amazing thing to me about my weight and awful physical condition: "Lay down that burden; that burden is mine to carry now." I cried. No one had referred to my weight like that before—as a burden I'd been carrying. And yet of course it was.
MORE: Was Mika your cheerleader?
DS: Oh yes. She texted and phoned all the time. She had to travel a lot, so we didn't see each other for weeks or months at a time. She saw me after I lost 25 pounds and then maybe 40. She had a pretty great reaction. Still, I don't think living this way is second nature to me. It never will be.
MORE: You're five foot eight, you've gone from 256 to 190 pounds, and you're still losing. What's changed for you?
DS: For the first 25 pounds, nobody really noticed except my friends and family. But at 30, 40 pounds, everyone noticed. All the corny stuff that people tell you when they lose weight that I never paid attention to? It's true. I did this because I wanted to look good, but the most amazing thing is feeling good. I don't have pain in my knees anymore. I don't have to take blood pressure medication. I have lots of energy.
And, of course, there's the shopping. I recently went out with one of my girlfriends, and I did not have to set foot in the plus-size department. My friend had tears in her eyes. She said, "Do you know how proud I am of you?"
This year my husband and I went out for Valentine's Day, and after years of wearing almost nothing but a black pantsuit, I had on a leopard-print dress. I walked out of the bedroom and said to my husband, "Your wife is back."
MORE: So even though it was painful, you are glad for Mika's intervention?
DS: It turned out to be the best thing anyone has said to me since Tom asked, "Will you marry me?"
Next: Mika's Do-Over

International Association for Impact Assessment
- Date submitted: 5 Oct 2011
- Stakeholder type: Major Group
- Name: International Association for Impact Assessment
- Submission Document: Download
Full SubmissionInternational Association for Impact Assessment The International Association for Impact Assessment - IAIA (www.iaia.org) is a professional association founded in 1980. IAIA has 3400 individual members from over 100 countries, including those from its 13 national affiliates. IAIA is active in promoting the practice of Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) and Impact Assessment (IA) worldwide. We respectfully invite the Rio+20 Conference Secretariat and the participant governments to consider the following: Recognising that ? Over loo countries already successfully use Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) and Impact Assessment (IA) through directives, policy or laws. ? The Organization for Economic Cooperation - OECD has a new policy on SEA (2008), the European Union has the SEA Directive (2001), and many developing countries in the last 5 years have been applying SEA to sectoral planning. ? SEA and IA help ensure that high level policies, programs and projects are designed and implemented with more sustainable outcomes while also reducing poverty and advancing Green economy objectives. ? SEA and IA work to ensure that development activities of individual sectors complement rather than undermine other sectors. They provide a systematic means for minimizing potential adverse outcomes and maximizing benefits early in policy, program and project design. ? SEA and IA are used to find legislative and policy gaps that would hinder achievement of sustainable development. ? When SEA and IA processes take root in key, cross-sectoral line ministries, the projects that get approved and implemented will have gone through a very rigorous sustainability filter, where full social and economic costs are examined. ? SEA and IA, underpinned by participatory processes, ensure development processes are inclusive and give a voice to society's most vulnerable. ? SEA and IA can alert decision makers to risks, improve community engagement, incorporate traditional knowledge, and facilitate cooperation across sectors and boundaries prior to strategic decisions being taken. ? The results of SEA and IA are used to inform the development of future proposals. They also inform on-going decision-making relating to a given geographic entity such as a country, a province or a river basin, including transboundary and shared basins. ? Political support for sustainable development and the Green economy, which are core objectives of Ri0+20, can be advanced if countries take full advantage of effective existing tools such as SEA and IA. IAEA urges the Rio+20 Conference Secretariat and the participant countries to consider the adoption of the following statement in the Conference Final Declaration: Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) and Impact .Assessment (IA) be recognised by States as effective high level decision support processes that can assist in the implementation of political commitment to Sustainable Development and Green economy initiatives. 1330 23rd Street South, Suite CIFargo, ND 58103-3705 USA Phone +1.701.297.79121Fax +1.701.297.7917 www.iaia.org

ZF-10920: XML_RPC not working
I've just detected that the communication functionality based on xml_rpc stoped working when I upgraded from 1.11.1 to 1.11.2.
I have now rolled back the upgrade to 1.11.1 again and things are working again.
At code level the problem seems to start at : Zend_XmlRpc_Response:__toString()
It looks like the server is formatting the xml response wrong, for example;
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
I have the same issue, and have found out that the problem is a commit to Zend_XmlRpc_Value, which broke many amongst other things the support for structs (or associative arrays)
Se diff for a fix (not tested for all return types).
I believe that this issue already was fixed with ZF-8580 but not was merged to branch release 1.11. You could try reproduced with version of the trunk to confirmed this correction.
Greetings Ramon Henrique Ornelas
I did a checkout of the XmlRpc code in trunk, replaced all files i the 1.11 branch with the trunk files, that fixed it!
Was fixed? Because tomorrow i will review this issue together with tests, to merged with branch release 1.11.
The merge r23584 incomplete fixed with r23624 - thanks.

In the streets of New York inspiration comes easy. The streets themselves have become an endless canvas for artists to tag,paste,sticker,stencil,and spray, their way up and down the block.
Shared in this book are a collection of my photos from the New York City streets, showcasing the talent and great lengths a street artist takes in order to leave his or her mark.
Never in my wildest dreams would i ever thought I would become excited when i peer down the city block and spy new scaffolding or construction zones, hoping that it becomes a new breeding ground for new forms of street art. In a way I almost started to develop a heightned sense for hunting out street art like i was on some sort of adventure. At no point can i now walk down a city street and not scan every mailbox,fire hydrant,street sign,alley,stoop,and even the holy grail of them all an abandoned building in search of art.
After seeing beautiful art go up one day and get destroyed the next, I felt the need to share with everyone what I'm fortunate to see everyday living and working in New York City. Hopefully i make it in time to get the shot.
Thanks are in order for mother nature, who on occasion decided that it would be a great day to explore. Lastly a very special thanks goes out to all the street artists who made this book a possibility and continue to inspire me, keep me on my toes, and challenge me to not only find your work but continue to excite me in the process.
After spending years in the Publishing and Animation Industry,the Captain finally set sail bringing you urbanly fresh flavor to his photos and illustrations. Check back soon for new upcoming titles and tales.

text: the participants of both the wars were only a handful of nations. yes, they were probably the most powerful and influential nations in the world at that time but how can you justify saying its a 'world war' when most of the world wasnt involved in conflict? no country outside of europe, and only a minority of europe was actively engaged in conflict, except america and japan, which didnt play a huge role, fought in the first world war. the second world war was arguably a bigger deal but it consisted of more or less the same band of belligerent nations. the rest of north america didnt care. the rest of asia didnt care. the whole of south america, africa and oceania didnt care. it seems highly egotistical to term a war based around a single continent with primarily western participants a 'world war'.

The pages within this web site are the most innovative advances made in astrology for over 1700 years! Third generation master astrologer, Arthyr Chadbourne, has researched ancient astrological systems for over 30 years and has advanced a profoundly unique system for today's astrologers. The Sunset Chart system may be the foundation of the pre-
Hellenistic astrological era and possibly the new horizon upon which future astrologers may base their research. We encourage you to take notes and do your own research.
Mr. Chadbourne's investigation has, for the last ten years, refined a distinctive process that has proven to be invaluable to many astrologers worldwide. Presented in this easy to navigate web site, you will find the basic foundation to this remarkable body of work.
What makes this system so attractive is its simplicity. There are three basic standards that allow the astrologer to quickly grasp nuances that readily reflect in the lifestyle and events of the individual. These are:
- The 30 degree Wheel, the back bone of this method.
- The Lunar Mansion, a non-rigid, personal look at the Moon's activities and how it relates to the individual.
- The Sunset Chart, a fast and unique way of looking for future events.
- Plus many other features that are designed to stimulate and enhance your understanding of astrology

Prepare yourself for an unparalleled mix of jazz, hip hop, R&B and rock, with appearances from Erykah Badu, Bilal, Lupe Fiasco, Lalah Hathaway, Shafiq Husayn (Sa-Ra), KING, Ledisi, Chrisette Michele, Mos Def, Musiq Soulchild, Meshell Ndegeocello, and Stokley Williams (Mint Condition).
Black Radio will be the first full-length album from the Grammy-nominated keyboardist's dynamic band; saxophonist Casey Benjamin, bassist Derrick Hodge, and drummer Chris Dave have come together show after show and blown away thousands with their ridiculously wondrous performances and now to have something we can take home? We almost can't take it.
