Trade card (advertising card) for celluloid shirt collars and cuffs, 1880s. Author's collection.
February 13, 2013 | Jane E. Boyd
Plastic may seem like a recent invention, but the first synthetic plastics actually appeared 150 years ago, in the 1860s and 1870s. Like other inventions of the 1800s—steam trains, telephones, photographs, and many more—these new materials were symbols of an age of technological progress, but they could also be dangerous.
Celluloid, the most successful early plastic, was cheap, light, strong, and easily colored and molded. In the late 1800s and early 1900s it was a popular substitute for more expensive natural materials, such as ivory and tortoiseshell. Many everyday items were made of celluloid: hairbrushes and combs, buttons and jewelry, frames for eyeglasses, detachable shirt collars and cuffs, dice and billiard balls, children's toys, and even false teeth.
Beginning in the 1890s celluloid also helped to create a brand-new entertainment industry. Since it was the only material at the time that could be formed into super-thin, transparent strips, it became the "film" in movie cameras and projectors. This nitrocellulose or nitrate film was used to make movies for the next 50 years.
Though this pioneering plastic was very versatile, it had a major drawback. Celluloid's main ingredient was cellulose nitrate or guncotton, which was essentially cotton treated with acids. Because cellulose nitrate caught on fire quickly and burned fiercely, celluloid items were also flammable.

There were many stories of smokers setting fire to their shirt collars and cuffs, or of buttons on shirts and dresses suddenly exploding, or of toys going up in flames. In 1906 a Paris newspaper reported that Mademoiselle Zelle, a cabaret dancer, put a fashionable celluloid collar on her little dog. But since she was smoking at the time, "the cigarette touched the collar, and—pouf! it was all over."
Some of these tales were made up or exaggerated, as celluloid was actually far more hazardous for factory workers than for consumers. In the 1870s and 1880s several celluloid factories in the United States and Europe suffered explosions and fires that killed and injured workers (including teenagers), destroyed machinery, gutted the buildings, and damaged buildings nearby.

Motion-picture film was also dangerous since it ran at high speeds through projectors with bright, hot electric bulbs. Projector fires were common until the 1950s, when "safety" film replaced nitrate film. Most movie theaters had metal projection booths lined with fireproof asbestos and equipped with shutters to keep any fires from spreading.
Most of the plastics we use now won't catch on fire the way celluloid could. Instead, their potential hazards are less dramatic and more subtle. For example, many people worldwide are concerned about the long-term health effects of bisphenol A (BPA), an organic compound used in plastic bottles and containers, linings for metal food and drink cans, and even on cash-register receipts. In response to medical studies showing that BPA can be harmful to humans, bans of the compound are increasing (especially for children's products) and manufacturers now offer BPA-free bottles and containers. Debates about the dangers of plastics and their ingredients will undoubtedly continue long into the future.
Jane E. Boyd, Ph.D., is a museum curator and freelance writer in Philadelphia, specializing in the history of science, technology, and medicine. For more about celluloid, see her article in the Fall 2011/Winter 2012 issue of Chemical Heritage, available online.

Editorial Policies
Review Procedures
+ View
- Hide
Manuscripts submitted to the journal undergo a rigorous peer-review process, overseen by both the Co-Editors and Associate Editors. If the editors judge it to fall within the scope of the Journal, the submitted manuscript is sent to two referees for evaluation. In rare cases decisions will be made with only one review. The identities of all referees remain confidential. On the basis of the referee reports, the Editors will make a decision either to accept the paper for publication, to reject it, or to ask the author for revisions suggested by the referee. Revised versions should be sent to the editorial office in a timely manner, or else the original receipt date may be replaced.
Publication Criteria
+ View
- Hide
A paper published in JRSE should fit the following criteria:
- English usage is clear and concise
- Mathematics are formulated precisely, in a manner understandable to scientists and engineers.
- Relevant background information is provided when necessary without dominating the paper.
- Content is scientifically sound and logically presented
- The paper will contribute significantly to the existing body of literature and be accessible and of interest to the broad and interdisciplinary community of JRSE readers.
Manuscripts that the editors deem insufficient with regard to the above criteria can be rejected without refereeing. (For further details, see Information for Contributors.)
It is the responsibility of the corresponding author to ensure that all authors approve the inclusion of their names on the byline. If the name of a co-author is added or removed, the approval of all original authors is required. A co-author being added must send his or her approval in writing. Papers are not published until the required signatures are received.
Authors publishing in the Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy will retain copyright and are required to complete an exclusive license to publish agreement. In keeping with the ethical standards and best practices of the publishing industry, submission to the Journal implies that the work has neither been previously copyrighted nor accepted for publication elsewhere. Since completion of the License to Publish Agreement is required before publication, electronic acceptance of the Agreement during the submission process can prevent unnecessary delays. The Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy also requires authors to inform the editors if a paper has been previously submitted to another journal, whether or not it is currently active with that journal.
Authors who disagree with the Editors' decision to reject their paper may appeal. If the disagreement cannot be resolved, including by consultation with the original or additional reviewers as appropriate, the arguments of both sides will be presented to an independent third party adjudicator for their judgment. As a final resort, an author may appeal the decision by making a request to the Editors that the case be reviewed by the Publisher of AIP Publishing. The Publisher will not make direct decisions whether or not a paper should be accepted for publication, but rather will assess whether procedures were followed properly. Additional rounds of review or adjudication would be called for at that stage only if proper procedures were not followed.
Article Types
+ View
- Hide
Format and Content: Manuscripts may be submitted in several formats: Articles, Tutorials, Letters, Comments, and Errata. In addition to the above formats which appear in most issues, JRSE also occasionally publishes, by invitation only, Special Topic Sections, Perspective articles, and Review articles. Manuscripts submitted to the Journal should have some broad interest to workers in more than one subfield of renewable and sustainable energy. Papers on more specialized topics, which will be of interest to a limited number of readers in only one subfield, should be submitted to more specialized journals.
Authors should place their work in context by including references to relevant published literature. While there is no length limit for Articles, authors should make every effort to keep the manuscript as short as possible consistent with a clear description of the research. It is often appropriate to present a piece of work as a single, longer article rather than breaking the work down into several shorter articles. However, in all cases, the editors will have to be satisfied that the length of an article is appropriate for the information that it contains.
Regular Articles: Most manuscripts are submitted as Regular Articles. These articles are intended to be full-length, topically relevant, timely, and important reports of advances in renewable energy research or policy. Articles should not contain previously published material and should have a significant quantity of new material. Authors should avoid spreading related results over several papers when the scientific argument would be made more persuasive by grouping many results in a single paper. The utility of new methods or techniques should be demonstrated, often by a significant example using the new method. Routine experiments or calculations that simply extend previous methods to a new system are not appropriate unless the results are used to significantly advance the solution of an important problem.
Tutorials: The Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy is committed to serving the needs of the worldwide renewable energy community, especially those people just starting out in the field. To that end, the journal features a Tutorials section, aimed at the advanced graduate-level to help shape the next generation of renewable energy researchers and consumers as well as to support researchers interested in engaging in specific topics/techniques and/or improving their skills in a particular area. Further information regarding submitting a Tutorial can be found in the Tutorial Instruction link in the left navigation pane.
Letters: The Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy maintains a Letters section, devoted to preliminary reports of highly significant work whose rapid publication will be important to a relatively large number of workers in the field. Letters may be complete themselves or may be followed by Regular Articles, which present substantial additional significant information. Letters have a length limit of 3500 words.
Comments and Responses: The purpose of a Comment is to correct significant errors in articles published in the Journal, to take issue with the conclusions reached, or to provide additional insight or corroboration. Comments must be concise, substantive, and free of polemics. They must address scientific issues only. Comments on questions of priority or calling attention to an oversight in a reference list are discouraged. The Editor-in-Chief will decide on the acceptance of Comments and Responses for publication only after the two parties have submitted final versions of their pieces. The Editor-in-Chief reserves the right to send the pieces to an adjudicator or to reject the pieces for publication.
Errata: Errata are intended to be corrections of errors in previously published papers. These may be either errors introduced in the publication process by either the author or the publisher, or errors in the research that were only discovered after the paper has been published. Errata should be confined to specific errors. Further discussion or additional work that either confirms or denies previous work should be presented as a separate Article, or Comment.
Perspective Articles: An invited-only section, Perspectives are intended as overviews of significant emerging areas or areas of increasing importance to readers of the Journal. These articles are intended to provide an introduction of the subject to scientists and/or policymakers who have not themselves worked on the problem, and also to provide a summary of the state-of-the-art to experts in the field. Unlike a Review Article, the authors of Perspectives are encouraged to comment on the future of the field. Perspective Articles will be published infrequently on no fixed schedule, and will be commissioned by the Editors.
Special Topic Sections: Special Topic sections will be published occasionally and on no fixed schedule. These are intended to be collections of articles connected by a single topical thread, containing reports of new research results or policy analyses that significantly advance our understanding of the field, and they will be reviewed using the usual criteria for Articles in the Journal. Special Topic sections may be assembled by the regular Editors or by a guest Editor. In all cases, the final decision regarding acceptance of a manuscript will be with the regular Editors.
Supplementary Material: The Editors and AIP encourage authors to submit supplemental material that may only be of interest to a few readers who are working on the problem for example, for publication alongside their manuscript. Long data tables, large numbers of figures, and long and detailed portions of text not necessary for an overall understanding of the scientific argument of the paper are appropriate. Supplemental material is linked to the electronic version of the journal and is immediately available to the interested reader. Long data sets are more useful to the reader when published this way as there is at least the possibility of electronic manipulation by the reader. There is no restriction on the format of supplemental files, but the Editors strongly encourage the use of ASCII text for the presentation of data. Word processing packages change in time, and ASCII text files are more likely to be readable in the future. Formats such as PDF and PostScript that cannot be edited are less useful to the reader who wishes to manipulate the data.

It is possible to transfer a rejected manuscript to another AIP Publishing journal for consideration. A list and descriptions can be found here. If you feel that your manuscript would be appropriate for publication in another of AIP Publishing's journals you may request a transfer by email to the Journal that rejected the article. This is exclusively for AIP Publishing journals on the list. Please note that transferring manuscript files does not guarantee that the manuscript will be considered by the receiving journal. It is only meant to offer the technical facility to allow transfer of manuscript files and correspondence without the inconvenience of having to resubmit from journal to journal.
Tutorial Instructions
The Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy publishes Tutorials to further its mission of serving the renewable energy community. Tutorials will be a regular feature and will retain the high standards of the journal.
Tutorials are intended as educational tools (at the advanced graduate-level) to help shape the next generation of researchers in renewable energy as well as to support researchers interested in engaging in specific topics/techniques and/or improving their skills in particular areas.
Tutorials are not required to provide original research content, but should be aimed at explaining – with an educational perspective - principles and/or techniques in a particular research area. They are also expected to communicate a broad overview of the objectives, results and open questions for that area. Tutorials can be extended papers of length 10 – 15 journal pages, but also shorter contributions (3-5 pages, called mini-Tutorials) on more specialized topics. Submitted Tutorials will be screened by the Editor-in-Chief, aided by the appropriate Associate Editor. Once accepted for review, the Tutorial paper will go through the Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy's rigorous peer-review process, and must meet the same high standards as regularly published papers.
It is important to note that, considering the purpose of the Tutorial papers, referees will be asked to address the following points when writing their reviews:
- Is the Tutorial aimed at the appropriate level for the Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy readership?
- Is the topical research area covered with sufficient depth and broad perspective (for extended Tutorials)? Can the style of presentation be improved?
- Is the topic of the Tutorial timely?
- Does the reference list appear to be appropriate? Are the references too one-dimensional, i.e., directed only towards the authors' research or research at the authors' institutions? Do the references provide sufficient background to allow the reader to place the paper in context with previous and current work?
- Has the paper been written in clear and acceptable English?
- For mini-Tutorials: Is the topic specialized enough to be covered in a mini-tutorial without loss of clarity?

I like the power of this plugin, but I'm trying to format it to match my site's style and each time I select Action Box Style = None, add my custom CSS, and save/update, it reverts the style select box back to "User Styles".
Have you experienced this before? The CSS stays in the backend, but on the frontend, it's getting the User0 class applied to it.
Thanks for the help. It's the last thing before I launch the site.

The idea is to have a filter on the right similar to this one: - Filter toggle example
So basically i want to be able to have multiple expanded and collapsed divs like the example. The plugins i have found only allow for one div to be expanded at any given time.
Any help would be great,

Obama, who was born in Hawaii and spent part of his childhood in Indonesia, will host Asian leaders including Chinese President Hu Jintao and Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda in Honolulu this weekend to seek to improve trade ties across the Pacific.
He will then travel to Australia to announce plans to boost the US military presence in the region and will be the first American president to attend the East Asia Summit in Bali. There, he will heap attention on the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia as well as India.
The campaign to cozy up to Asian powers large and small comes at a critical moment for the US economy, whose recovery is at risk because of a spiraling debt crisis in Europe that dominated a G20 leaders' summit in France last week.
"To have this trip happen when you have nothing but crisis in Europe and nothing but opportunity in Asia, you couldn't have more of a juxtaposition," said Victor Cha, who advised President George W Bush on Asian affairs.
Georgetown University professor Charles Kupchan said he expected the Asia swing to be "much more upbeat" than the trip to Cannes had been for Obama, whose re-election chances in November 2012 will hinge on his economic record.
Executives from companies such as Boeing, Caterpillar, General Electric and Time Warner Cable will also attend the APEC summit to help Obama make the case that closer ties with Asia will help create US jobs.
"When you look for rays of light, where is growth going to come from, one of the main answers is exports to Asia," Kupchan said. "It is something that this President needs to focus on, particularly in an election season."
Obama will not be able to leave the European financial crisis behind entirely. Asia-Pacific finance ministers meeting in Honolulu before the leaders' summit fretted about Europe's lack of strong action to deal with crises in Greece and Italy, and talked of ways to bolster their own economies to minimize potential spillover.

Lately windows has been getting unbearably slow, so I decided to reset my machine (i tried to do a refresh but it kept failing)
After I've done the reset, I feel the computer is still slow. The weird thing is it's kind of a different type of slow. Everything inside chrome runs really well, but inside Windows itself, when changing windows, clicking on icons etc. it keeps locking up.
I used Windows 8's reset my computer feature. Is that feature the same as just doing a fresh install of the OS on my hard drive? If so how would it do this since it never asked for an ISO file or a DVD?
Also, does that mean that given my computer is still sluggish, it means it's not a software problem (maybe a hardware problem?) given it still hasn't gone awaY?

Surly wants to build $20 million brewery, pub, and restaurant: Calls on fans for legislative help
Yesterday Surly Brewing Co. called out to its fans via its blog to help the company build a $20 million brewery-pub-restaurant complex in Brooklyn Center.
The beer company claims it can't be licensed as a brewpub because Minnesota law won't allow it to have a new brewery in addition to the large amount of beer they now brew. Surly is working with legislators "in hopes of getting the law changed because a restaurant, bar, and beer garden have to be a part of the new brewery."
Although Surly doesn't specify what it needs from its supporters at this time, it is asking them to "keep checking [its] web page and Twitter and Facebook pages for updates."

China's government has rejected and condemned international arbitration of its maritime disputes — so why do polls suggest that the Chinese population recently felt differently?
Asia Society experts discuss what will follow the international tribunal's rebuke of China's maritime claims.
Richard Pink, owner of Los Angeles' famed Pink's Hot Dogs, tells Asia Society Southern California why he chose Manila for his first international expansion.
Li Zhaoxing had strong words about a pending South China Sea arbitration case with the Philippines — and for the United States.
In an interview with Asia Blog, the journalist and author Bill Hayton discusses the thinking behind China's recent actions in the South China Sea, and why Beijing may soon reassess moves to enforce them.
"The message is clear," said Geraldine Roman. "Gender or sexual orientation is no hindrance to serving the country."
"As the only Filipino-American currently playing, I want to show that there are no limits to what you can achieve, as long as you work hard and put your heart into it."
The 70-year-old former mayor of Davao City has raised eyebrows with his provocative remarks. But two experts at the U.S.-Philippines Society believe he's more pragmatic than he seems.
In the year celebrating Asia Society's 60th anniversary, we periodically reach into the archives to find memories from the organization's history. This week: a video throwback to the second annual "Game Changer" Awards.
The turntablist says he's drawn to his craft out of a desire to be "the person who makes everyone dance."

Deck the halls with these gorgeous winter wreaths that will bring holiday cheer to your Christmas decor. Christmas wreaths are often made with fir, but we share alternative wreath supplies that could inspire this year's front door.
Simple materials get a textural upgrade, thanks to a little dose of white spray paint to reference a dusting of snow. Vary the coverage of spray paint so some pinecones are fully "snow covered" and others are lightly dusted. Let dry. Use 8-inch pieces of florists wire to attach pinecones to a wire wreath form. Hot-glue red jingle bells to the wreath, placing most of them on the full-white pinecones to help the color pop.
Start with a basic fir wreath and tuck in bits of berries and more greenery to create an overstuffed yet beautiful Christmas accent. Keep it casual with unmeasured berry twigs (some long, some short), and a loose, imperfect red bow.
Handmade takes center stage in this fun and casual wreath, a perfect craft for kids to lend a helping hand. Make pom-poms in various shades of a color -- here, a range of soft neutrals. Hot-glue or use a pin to attach to a foam wreath form, and add an accent bird as a conversation point.
No-damage hanging is easy: Here are our editors' two favorite ways to attach a wreath.
A collection of nature's seasonal bounty -- pinecones, seeds, shells, sticks, berries, and nuts -- provides the materials for this textured wreath. To make, purchase a foam wreath form and hot-glue miscellaneous items around the wreath, varying placement and color for visual interest.
Editor's Tip: Assemble the wreath first with the flattest elements (like moss), ending with three-dimensional statement pieces (like pods). Hang the wreath a few times during assembly and step back to decide which piece to fill in next.
A pretty collection of greens and bright colors puts the focus on seasonal fruits. To create, purchase a wire wreath form. Use florists wire to attach real or faux apples to the wreath, inserting the wire end into the bottom of the apple and wrapping around the wreath. Add an inner layer of limes using the same method, and an outer layer of pinecones, too. Insert greenery as needed to fill in gaps and add fullness to the wreath.
Wrap a wreath form in warmth -- literally -- with the help of a knitted scarf.
A classic wreath form, the laurel, gets a fragrant twist with fresh rosemary. Hot-glue the inner and outer rings of a 14-inch wooden quilting hoop together; let dry. Cut an 8-inch section from the top of the glued-together hoop. Use floristsl wire to attach rosemary bunches to the sides of the hoop and sprigs to the front. Glue a bow to the bottom center of the wreath; dust with faux snow if desired.
Glued around a foam form, odds and ends of driftwood become a naturally beautiful wall accent. Collect pieces of wood and hot-glue around the wreath form, filling in with smaller pieces as needed to cover the form. Hang with a simple wide ribbon.
There are pretty, elegant ways to give a design boost to a classic evergreen wreath. Here, glittery holiday balls and spray-painted bay leaves supply a golden gloss. Choose a silky ribbon in a complementary color to both the wreath accents and the greenery.
This shimmering wreath mimics glistening snow. See how to make your own!
This boxwood beauty is an elegant way to break outside the circle. The chilly blue wreath starts with a purchased square boxwood wreath and finishes with mini ornaments and glittering sugar beads.
For the bows: Cut eight strips of ribbon long enough to wrap around the wreath. Lay out two pieces of ribbon in an X-shape. Wrap a small length of florists wire around the middle of each X; twist ends together in back to secure. Nestle wire into wreath. Make three more bows using the ribbon strips. Hot-glue the embellishments on to finish.
Give mini Christmas balls a little extra oomph by placing them in the center of vintage tree light reflectors. Attach the ultrashiny ornaments and additional balls to the wreath using florists wire, then hang with a ribbon in an unexpected color, such as dusty pink or mint green.
Every knock on your front door will be jollier than ever with this snazzy Santa wreath. Bedazzle a fresh or fake evergreen wreath with a vintage toy Santa, using twist ties to nestle him in. On one side, a colorful assortment of ornaments shines, while a ribbon shows off on the other.
Adorn your plain pinecone wreath with eye-popping metallic spray and a stately reindeer. To make the snowy stunner, spray-paint the pinecone wreath with a few coats of ivory spray. Once dry, hot-glue a glittered-silver reindeer to the center of the wreath. Look for materials at your local crafts store.
This season, we're sweet on citrus. Make artificial citrus fruit sparkle with a swipe of glue and a sprinkling of German glass glitter. Once dry, glue onto an 18-inch grapevine wreath. Tuck in fresh or faux citrus leaves; glue in place to secure.
The luster of silvery ornaments makes any amount of evergreen stand out. Using florists wire, attach silver-sprayed pinecones to an evergreen wreath. Add a mix of medium and large silver glass ornaments, using florists wire to secure. For elegant pops of blue or teal, tuck in small, store-bought or hand-painted ornaments.
Give your holiday wreath personal charm with family photos and hand-selected scrapbook paper. To craft, curl 1x6-inch strips of paper and wrap them tightly around a pencil, then glue the ends together. Once dry, hot-glue the paper circles onto an 8-inch florists foam circle at various angles. Play with patterns and prints to give your wreath pops of holiday color and cheer.
Craft your own Christmas wreath using yarn and an oh-so-cute bow. It's easier than you think!
Wow your holiday party crowd with a stunning, pretty-in-pink wreath. Gather an assortment of ornaments -- all of different shapes and sizes. Find pinks, silvers, and golds, then hot-glue them to an 8-inch florists foam circle. Be sure to cover the entire wreath so none of the foam shows through.
Turn pinecones silver and stud them with gold embellishments for a metallic take on your Christmas door. Start with a basic pinecone wreath and spray-paint it silver. Wire on gold accessories, such as golden nuts (you can spray-paint them yourself if you can't find prepainted) and gold ball ornaments. Hang with a thick silk gold ribbon.
Greet rosy-cheeked guests with a warm, flowery wreath. First, wrap green yarn around a wreath form (available at your local crafts store). Then, create the pretty poinsettia blooms by cutting out felt flower shapes and hot-gluing silver bells to the centers. Hang from your door with a festive red-and-green ribbon.
Dress up a plain evergreen wreath with eucalyptus sprigs, glass balls, and spray paint. To make, wire and wrap the ornaments to the wreath using florists picks, focusing the lightest, biggest ornaments at the top and the darkest, smallest ornaments at the bottom. Use pearl-gold and mist-blue glitter sprays to give the wreath trimmings some frosty elegance.
The luster of silvery pink-sprayed leaves in combination with the bright pops of red leaves make this holiday wreath a showstopper. To make, spray purchased green faux leaves with your favorite shades of shimmery pink and red. Leave some of the leaves green to balance the color. Once dry, tuck them tightly in an evergreen wreath.
A collection of perky colors gives an ordinary holiday wreath a bright makeover. Choose felt in classic shades of red and green, then add in complementary hues like orange and aqua. To make, cut the felt into 7-inch strips, about 1/2 inch to 1 inch in width. Wrap and overlap the strips around the foam wreath, pinning the ends to the back. Glue on a cute berry embellishment to finish.
To make the berries: Craft the cozy red berries using three 1x20 inch strips. Trim one long edge of each strip with pinking shears. Starting at one short end and keeping long straight edge aligned, roll each strip to make a berry. Secure to the felt using hot glue.
From sweet pinks and reds to icy blues and greens, this Christmas wreath is as colorful as they come! To make, collect ornaments of different shapes, sizes, and styles. Hot-glue them to an 8-inch florists foam circle (pointing the unattractive tops toward the wreath form), then showcase the finished wreath above a mantel or fireplace where it can really sparkle.
Let some feathered Christmas friends circle around a wreath this year. To make, coat a store-bought pinecone wreath with gray spray paint. Spray with spray snow, then silver glitter; let dry between coats. Arrange three cardinal figurines and nine round red ornaments among the pinecones, adhering with hot glue to keep them in place.

RICHMOND, Va. -- "You should pray," a woman in a Michael Vick T-shirt told Brigitte Picard.
Picard was holding up a sign that said, "YOUR GOOD NAME DOGKILLER." She'd gotten up early, driven four hours, just to let her two dogs know that "Mommy is here for them." She was in the middle of a sentence as hallelujahs and Bible music flowed about a block down.
She was outnumbered.
On a bizarre day that was a cross between sporting event and religious revival, Michael Vick did what was expected -- he pleaded guilty Monday to a federal dogfighting conspiracy charge. What wasn't expected, at least in the animal-rights circles, was that Vick's supporters would at least temporarily drown out four months of outrage.
As his gray Range Rover rolled up Main Street at 10:19 a.m., Vick was greeted with cheers and women jumping up and down and signs that said, "Ookie! We love you!" After he walked up a ramp through the double doors that led to the courthouse, his supporters sang, "We Shall Overcome," and chanted, "We love Mike."
It was almost like a football game. Two sides lined up on opposite ends of a stretch of yellow barricades across the street from the courthouse. On 10th Street stood the animal-rights people. Near 11th were the Vick supporters. And Vick's group was considerably more vocal.
About 200 of them boarded a bus early Monday morning in Newport News, Va., which is Vick's hometown. Two of them were pastors from churches they say Vick attends. Domeka Kelley, the pastor of Psalms Ministry, says Vick donated $317,000 to build a new church. Kelley says Vick did it before the dogfighting charges.
"The Michael Vick we know is not the Michael Vick the media has portrayed," Kelley said. "He's a man who loves God.
"This has hurt him beyond measure."
The atmosphere was much different than the last time Vick was in court in July. Thousands lined up along Main Street to wildly boo and protest Vick. But at one point Monday morning, the people working the event -- the media and the police on horses, motorcycles and bikes -- outnumbered the public. About 600 showed up by late morning.
Twenty-five TV trucks were lined up on the road in the back of the courthouse just before midnight Sunday. Under a full moon, the only sounds were the hum of the engines and the chatter of a few night owls preparing Monday's shows.
A police officer working the scene said that the animal-rights activists were probably resting up for the morning. But some of them never came.
There was the scruffy-faced guy who started barking when a young man held up a pro-Vick sign that said, "Don't listen to them haters." There were the legions of PETA folks who gripped their posters of a mangled dog, and the man with the Chihuahua and a T-shirt that said, "My dog hates Michael Vick."
PETA spokesman Dan Shannon said some of the silence was by choice. He asked his people to be quiet Monday out of respect for the court setting. Some listened; some didn't.
"I think the outrage is there," Shannon said. "You look at any of the Web sites and some of the calls on the sports radio shows People are just as outraged now as they have been. It's just taken a different form."
For the animal supporters, Monday took on an anticlimactic form. It had been a week since the announcement that Vick would plead guilty. The fighting, at least in this case, was basically over.
But it might have just started for Vick, the Falcons' suspended quarterback.
Vick appeared to acknowledge his supporters when he walked out of the courthouse, flanked by his attorneys, dressed in a dark blue suit and crisp white shirt. He glanced across the street and appeared to nod slightly.
The crowd followed him down to 12th Street, where Vick gave a statement to the media at the Omni Hotel. Police officers told both sides they couldn't go into the conference room, which was stuffed with reporters.
Vick entered a side door and stepped up to the microphones shortly after 11:30 a.m. He had a small slip of paper tucked away in his hand and took a deep breath before he spoke.
He said he acted immaturely. He said he took full responsibility for his actions and had found Jesus.
"I will redeem myself," Vick said. "I have to."
He walked to the door near the corner, where his lawyers in dark suits were listening. He hugged a person who appeared to be part of his legal team.
Then the gray Range Rover was gone, while his fans still stood outside the hotel waiting, near the PETA people and the businessmen and the gawkers. On Monday, they all stood on different sides.

Shaky camerawork and slightly nervous-looking girls not withstanding, there is some appeal to these fresh young faces slobbering over the meat.
There's a nice array of women, from the very young looking Tabetha and pensive Adana, to the blonde MILF Debbie Dial, who does a pretty good job at the task at hand. Jayna James, though, comes off as a seasoned pro. She looks like a porn girl and has energy and enthusiasm to spare. She is first seen seductively sucking a candy bar before her large gorgeous tits are exposed and her mouth is full. It is a stark contrast to the rest.

Three men accused of burglarizing an Amarillo home were arraigned Thursday, one day after allegedly being caught red-handed.
Christopher Eugene Irabor Jr., 21, Orlando Blake Gilbreath, 17, and Tyler Davis Levi, 17, all of Amarillo, were arraigned Thursday afternoon on charges stemming from an alleged burglary of an Amarillo home.
Witnesses saw three men loading a television into a Cadillac from a home in the 2000 block of North Osage Street on Wednesday and contacted authorities, police said.
Police were able to locate and stop a Cadillac matching witness descriptions a few minutes later, police said. As officers spoke to the men in the car, they noticed in the back seat a large television, a DVD player and other items matching those described by witnesses. While questioning the suspects, police learned they reportedly had broken into the house, left earlier and were spotted by witnesses when they returned for more items, authorities said.
The men were taken into custody and booked into the Potter County Detention Center on burglary charges, police said. All three remained in the jail Thursday. Bond for each was set at $7,500.
The stolen property was returned to the owner, police said.

You use the crossover cable if you are connecting from the PC straight into the XBOX..Your PC has to have a NIC (Network Interface Card aka ethernet card 10/100)card..Got one for $10.00 at staples
Im a newbie at this also..one thing that slowed me down was the damn crossover cable..I was using a regular ethernet cable and was not able to connect, they both look similar ..the difference is that the crossover cable has Pin1 connected to Pin3 and Pin2 connected to Pin6...I finally bought one at Staples(Once again) for $12.00..So Newbies make sure it says Crossover on the box when you buy this type of cable

what if it is ethernet cable but it is running through a network and a router? i currently have my xbox networked in order to play halo online. will i be able to move files in this manor or will i have to run a new crossover cable all over my house?
Posted 28 August 2002 - 04:45 AM
If you are going directly into your XBOX from your PC you need a crossover. If you are using a router,hub, or a switch you only need straight cables.
Posted 28 August 2002 - 06:19 AM
Straight cables= regular RJ-45 cables.

can you tell the diference by looking at it? and if so, how?
Posted 03 September 2002 - 03:34 PM
Hold the ends up together. If they match, its regular RJ-45, if the colors (wires) appear to be in reverse order, then its cross cable...

If you bought a premade cable, it should say crossover on it somewhere.

The Vault: Hunter S. Thompson, Part IV
Since the 1960s, Hunter S. Thompson made his bones by writing about Fear and Loathing when it comes to politics, motorcycle gangs, guns and Las Vegas. So it's really not fair that he was also a top-rate, mad-dog sports columnist, even in the twilight of his fevered career. Here is a sampling from ESPN.com's Page 2 Vault:
Years before Los Suns suited up in the 2010 playoffs, Hunter Thompson wondered whether political protest could peacefully coexist with sports. Call him paranoid, but Thompson was on the lookout for fallout from riot police and thought police.
"Extreme behavior in Aspen" (Feb. 3, 2003)
In a matter of hours, just as the X Games were peaking, I was scheduled to make a speech to thousands of cranked-up anti-war protesters who had swarmed into Aspen from all over the state of Colorado to protest the looming war in Iraq and march through the center of town at the same time the X Games were happening. Indeed, it had the look of an action-packed day coming up, and some people even feared violence. ...
What would happen, for instance, if Michael Jordan made a glitzy anti-war commercial for Nike that appeared on nationwide TV about nine times a day? Think about it.
Rare is the sports columnist who can get away with railing against the day's political headlines. But in times when everything seems off-kilter, Thompson was able to draw parallels between the political climate and its dreadful equivalent in the non-partisan world of sports.
"Prepare for the Weirdness" (Nov. 20, 2000)
We have seen Weird Times in this country before, but the year 2000 is beginning to look super weird. This time, there really is nobody flying the plane. ... We are living in dangerously weird times now. Smart people just shrug and admit they're dazed and confused.
If this were the world of sports, it would be like playing a Super Bowl that goes into 19 scoreless Overtimes and never actually Ends. ... or four L.A. Lakers stars being murdered in different places on the same day. Guaranteed Fear and Loathing. Abandon all hope. Prepare for the Weirdness. Get familiar with Cannibalism.
The televised football debacle known as the XFL lasted but one season -- hardly enough time for Thompson to work up much of a lather against it. But he knew the look of terror worn by those who orchestrate a failed experiment when he saw it.
"XFL, R.I.P." (Feb. 21, 2005)
Out of personal loyalty to Jesse Ventura, I tried to watch the XFL "clash" on Saturday, but by halftime my heart was swollen with Hate. It was like watching a Festival of Shame taking place in a blinding rainstorm.
The weird thing about the XFL is that nobody except Vince McMahon was anxious to see it born, and nobody except the cheerleaders will miss it when it's gone. There is no way to explain why it ever happened at all, except that some cluster of corporate thugs in the TV business figured they were in desperate need of a tax writeoff. It was not even good entertainment, much less good football.
Not all of Hunter Thompson's wagering hunches came from the tail-end of a bender. In this case, losing a massive amount of blood from cutting himself on a broken window at the Chateau Marmont led to this rant, which included him correctly predicting that year's Heisman winner.
"A wild & wooly tale of sporting excess" (Oct. 28, 2002)
Try Carson Palmer from USC, who has a bitching arm and a nice habit of lulling a defense to sleep with normal stuff, and then breaking their backs with long weird strikes to the heart. ... Sudden death: WHACK! Right down the middle -- so fast that it catches you flat-footed, two steps behind and stupid.
Miami's hot-rod QB, Ken Dorsey, is truly impressive, and no doubt the favorite, but only as long as Miami keeps winning. Dorsey is fast, strong and scary confident. He is a winner -- just like I would be if I played QB behind that offensive line. That is what makes Miami so daunting. They have the horses. It would be nice to believe in a Miami-Notre Dame finale, but that is probably too much to ask for in these bleak and deadly times.

Bukyung Jung will come in as a late injury replacement for Gesias Calvancante against Shinya Aoki in a lightweight bout at Yarennoka!, which will take place on New Year's Eve at the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan.
The news was posted on the official website for the event earlier today.
Calvancante was forced to pull out of the fight after suffering a setback while recovering from recent knee surgery.
Not much is known about Jung except that he is a former Olympic silver medalist in Judo. Aoki has not fought since he submitted Brian Lo-A-Njoe with an armbar at PRIDE 34: Kamikaze earlier this year.
Touch of gloves to The Fight Network for the find.
Sherdog's Greg Savage is reporting that the lightweight super-fight between Shinya Aoki and Gesias Calvancante scheduled for the Yarennoka! show on New Year's Eve may not be happening according to certain sources.
I posted a blurb yesterday about Savage's comments on his radio show yesterday.
There's been no indication as to what the real reason might be in terms of why the fight may be canceled/postponed.
It's rumored that Calvancante is coming off of recent knee surgery and one can only wonder if the reigning K-1 Lightweight Tournament Champion is not healthy enough to compete at the moment. There are no known injuries that Aoki has suffered lately.
If the fight is not happening, M-1 Global CEO Monte Cox has no knowledge of it:
"As far as I know the fight is still happening," said Cox, "and it is one I am really looking forward to seeing."
Update 6:00 PM: Sherdog is now reporting that the fight will now be postponed according to information received from Calvancante's father.
Still no official word on why the fight isn't taking place but Calvancante has reportedly not been training for this fight at all so I'm going to assume that he's still not fully recovered from his surgery.
Update 12/23 12:00 PM: The fight is officially cancelled. DEEP officials held a press conference yesterday announcing that the bout would not take place.
Officials running the Yarennoka! show scheduled to take place at the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan held a press conference earlier today to announce two additional bouts for the event.
Reigning K-1 lightweight tournament champion Gesias Calvancanti will face Shinya Aoki for the first time in their respective careers.
Calvancanti had a monster year in 2007, stopping Nam Phan, Vitor Ribeiro, and Andre Amade in consecutive fights to win the K-1 Hero's lightweight tourney for the second straight year. Calvancanti's lone career loss came at the hands of Joachim Hansen at a Shooto event in 2004.
Aoki is 2-1 so far in 2007, submitting Brian Lo-A-Njoe at PRIDE 34 in April and earning a close split decision win over highly touted welterweight Akira Kikuchi at Shooto's first "Back to our Roots" show in February.
The second bout announced at the press conference was Hayato "Mach" Sakurai returning to action against Hidehiko Hasegawa.
Sakurai last fought at PRIDE 33 where he knocked out current Ultimate Fighter contestant Mac Danzig.
Sakurai's confirmed participation as this event should dispel the rumor that he had signed with the UFC to compete at welterweight. The UFC even showed him as a UFC welterweight during a PPV broadcast earlier this year but I'm assuming that contract talks thought to be a done deal may have fell apart. Either that or Sakurai is being lent to the show by Zuffa.
Hasegawa has been fairly active in 2007, earning a majority decision win over Jutaro Nakao in his first bout of the year. Hasegawa then faced Dong Hyun Kim in consecutive fights; Kim defeated Hasegawa in August by TKO before the two fought to a draw last month.
An official opponent for Fedor Emelianenko was not announced at the press conference. Officials present included M-1 Global CEO Monte Cox, FEG president Sadaharu Tanigawa, former PRIDE official Nobuhiko Takada and DEEP president Shigeru Saeki.
While Zuffa has signed a wealth of talent over the past few months, they haven't locked up every top fighter just yet, including the world's best pound-for-pound fighter. Here's your guide to the top ten fighters that currently aren't under contract with Zuffa (UFC/WEC) courtesy of Scott and myself…
1. Fedor Emelianenko (26-1-0-1) – The best fighter in the world, period. He has beaten a who's who of heavyweights from around the world and is looking pretty much unstoppable at this point. The only thing we have against him is that he doesn't fight often enough but it's technically not his fault anyway. Both K-1 and the UFC are vigorously attempting to sign the hottest free agent on the market right now. Old rumors had him going to the UFC while the latest set has him staying in Japan. Only time will tell where Fedor is going to end up.
2. Josh Barnett (20-5) – Probably the second biggest FA on the market, Barnett hasn't ruled out signing with any organization. He's an extremely talented heavyweight and a former UFC Heavyweight Champion at that. Has split a pair of fights with Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira. His 'Achilles' heel' seems to be Mirko Cro Cop - Barnett has lost to him in three straight tries. Has the skill set to beat anyone in the world. Has said that he would love to return to the US but the guy is a legend in Japan.
3. Matt Lindland (20-5) – The one fighter that the UFC should have never let go. Lindland was set to challenge Rich Franklin for the UFC Middleweight Title until the UFC terminated his contract because of an unapproved sponsor being on his shorts. Lindland has won 5 out of 7 fights since then - his only losses have been against Quinton Jackson and Fedor who both compete in higher weight classes than "The Law". Has said that he currently does not want to be locked up by a single organization.
4. Takanori Gomi (27-3-0-1) – Gomi was the top ranked lightweight in the world for what seemed like forever until he was submitted by both Marcus Aurelio and Nick Diaz in less than a year. His losses have come against the cream of the crop and he's beaten just about everyone else out there. Gomi is the current PRIDE Lightweight Champion as well the winner of the PRIDE Lightweight Grand Prix in 2005. He has stated that he has no interest in leaving Japan to compete at this time and has publicly said he is interested in signing with K-1.
5. Denis Kang (27-8-1-1) – Reports have Kang signing with K-1 any day now. If he does indeed ink a deal with K-1, he is expected to take on Kazushi Sakuraba in September in what could possibly be Saku's final fight. Kang put himself on the map by fighting his way to the finals of the PRIDE Welterweight Grand Prix, defeating Akihiro Gono, Murilo Rua, and Amar Suloev before ultimately losing a split decision to Kazuo Misaki. He is widely considered one of the most well-rounded middleweights in the world today.
