Large families basically have two choices when it comes to what to drive: a three-row SUV or a minivan. Both have their merits and handle cargo and passenger room differently. During Cars.com's recent $40,000 3-Row SUV Challenge, I spent a few days getting to know seven of the contenders in the midsize crossover class, driving them, climbing in and out of them, and installing car seats in their second and third rows.
Read the Full $40,000 3-Row SUV Challenge
Although they all have to offer a large amount of room in order to fit that third row, it's obvious that not all SUVs are created equal. When it comes to car seats, there were some very clear winners and losers, with the Honda Pilot and Hyundai Santa Fe leading the pack, and the Chevrolet Traverse and Mazda CX-9 bringing up the rear.
Test Notes: For the car seat checks, we set the front seats in a comfortable position for a 6-foot-tall driver and a 5-foot 6-inch passenger. We installed the rear-facing seats (Graco Snugride infant seat and Britax Roundabout convertible seat) behind the front passenger and the forward-facing seats (Britax Roundabout convertible seat and Graco Turbobooster) behind the driver to minimize driver legroom impact. We installed the booster and forward-facing convertible in the third row.
Each SUV started off with 10 points and lost points if it did not accommodate car seats in all available second- and third-row seating positions. Points were also removed if the Latch and tether anchors were difficult to access, if the second row didn't slide, if the buckles were difficult to grasp or use, or if the car seats impacted front-passenger legroom. We added points if the SUV had an extra set of Latch anchors in its second or third rows (only two sets are federally mandated) and if the third row had a top tether anchor, essential for safely installing a forward-facing convertible child seat but not federally mandated.
Check out the Car Seat Checks below for more details:

GOLF: Better lie, improved approach

Want more top stories? Sign up here for daily or weekly newsletters with our top news.
I'm talking of lies here, folks, but not really in the golf sense, more of the employment variety.
My lie with the Peninsula Daily News for the past four years was as the chief news assistant, helping publicize scholarship fundraisers, honor roll students, business milestones and providing answers to all sorts of queries from our readership.
Recently circumstances changed and during the winter preps sports season I made the gradual move across the newsroom to my new (old) home as the sports reporter/columnist for the PDN.
Hopefully you saw some of those new efforts in the 30 or so basketball game stories or the wrestling tournaments I covered this winter.
The sports page is where I got my start with the paper as a sports assistant back in July of 2007, and where I took over the golf column in late-summer 2009.
This is the distance I wrote of at the beginning: the 25-30 feet separating my former desk with my current location.
A short move but one that has already paid dividends for this golf column.
Namely, I can use time to get out and about and see what's happening at our area courses in a way that I couldn't before.
I've already been able to do that with two of our North Olympic Peninsula locales and will be visiting the other spots shortly.
Don't worry, the golf column isn't going anywhere, and it should get better from here.
Discovery Bay ace day
Bob Hicks notched the first hole-in-one of 2014 at Discovery Bay Golf Course near Port Townsend last Friday.
Hicks managed the feat with his pitching wedge on the 90-yard 14th hole and the ace was witnessed by Greg Rutz, Bill Pearson and Bruce Klock.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) - Jefferson County sheriff's investigators have arrested a man and charged him with stealing the identities of hospice patients.
Sheriff's Sgt. Randy Christian, a spokesman, said Wednesday that 31-year-old Connie Butler Jr. of Birmingham is accused of stealing the identities to obtain credit cards and goods. He said the names of 5 victims have been identified so far.
All the patients are terminally ill.
Butler was charged with a single count of trafficking in stolen identities and possession of marijuana. He was placed in the Jefferson County Jail under bonds totaling $105,000.
Christian said the 2 month investigation continues and additional charges are possible.

"Jiangmen - inland port of Guangdong province" Jiangmen by vincentf
Jiangmen Travel Guide: 6 reviews and 39 photos
Jiangmen is an inland port city lying south of Guangzhou. It is an ancestral home of many overseas Chinese eg. both in Western countries and in Hong Kong/Macau. Unlike many areas of China, there is an absence of bicycles. Instead, motorcycles and mopeds rule the roads within this area of Guangdong province.
Jiangmen's most famous person is a Ming Dynasty poet, Chen Baisha. A memorial has been dedicated to him.
There is a grass skiing area located at Guifeng Mountain. I guess this is an alternative to real skiing, as no snow ever falls in this part of China!

Hi, I would like to edit a title called 'Show as slideshow' to my language. It is shown at my gallery page, on top of the images. Where do I edit that?
Thank you for your help.
Hi, I would like to edit a title called 'Show as slideshow' to my language. It is shown at my gallery page, on top of the images. Where do I edit that?
Thank you for your help.
You can create a localization .mo and .po in the /lang file that matches the language of your wordpress install. Looks like German is the only one in there now but you can add any language you need. The .pot file is in the /lang folder and software like Poedit is great.
Hello Charles, thanks for your attention.
Apparently Poedit only runs on Unix and Windows, but I'M on a Mac.
Is it not possible to edit the code itself? But there are so many .php files when I click on 'Edit' this gallery extention, I can't figure which one to choose.
If I examine the page source, I find it there like this:

[Show as slideshow]
Do you have any idea?
Many thanks,
Poedit does work on OSX, I use it for the Canadian English version of WordPress and my plugins. http://www.poedit.net/download.php#osx
According to the .pot file line you are looking for is on line 170 of admin/install.php
#: ../admin/install.php:170
msgid "[Show as slideshow]"
msgstr ""
It is never a good idea to rewrite a plugin as you would need to fix it after every update.
I see. I only need it now to show a customer, just as a visual. I tried to edit that line you mentioned, but that didn't change the text of that link. Never mind, I'll go the proper way. Thank you for the advice, I have now downloaded the Poedit, and dig my head in! :)
What a great software! I found what you mentioned, and replaced the text I wanted.
But it now saves my file as a .po file. Do I save it with my language, and load it back to th e lang folder? And if yes, how do I load that content into my website?
Sorry about the load of questions, I couldn't find any help about this on the Poedit website.
This topic has been closed to new replies.

Excellent Read, very interesting, thanks.Originally Posted by Administrator
I can't believe some of these things!! I hope this bill gets passsed.
This is a discussion on Citizens' Self-Defense Act of 2005 within the Concealed Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; HR 47 IH 109th CONGRESS 1st Session H. R. 47 To protect the right to obtain firearms for security, and to use firearms in defense ...
HR 47 IH 109th CONGRESS 1st Session
To protect the right to obtain firearms for security, and to use firearms in defense of self , family, or home, and to provide for the enforcement of such right.
January 4, 2005
Mr. BARTLETT of Maryland introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
To protect the right to obtain firearms for security, and to use firearms in defense of self , family, or home, and to provide for the enforcement of such right.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
This Act may be cited as the `Citizens' Self -Defense Act of 2005'.
The Congress finds the following:
(1) Police cannot protect, and are not legally liable for failing to protect, individual citizens , as evidenced by the following:
(A) The courts have consistently ruled that the police do not have an obligation to protect individuals, only the public in general. For example, in Warren v. District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department, 444 A.2d 1 (D.C. App. 1981), the court stated: `[C]ourts have without exception concluded that when a municipality or other governmental entity undertakes to furnish police services, it assumes a duty only to the public at large and not to individual members of the community.'.
(B) Former Florida Attorney General Jim Smith told Florida legislators that police responded to only 200,000 of 700,000 calls for help to Dade County authorities.
(C) The United States Department of Justice found that, in 1989, there were 168,881 crimes of violence for which police had not responded within 1 hour.
(2) Citizens frequently must use firearms to defend themselves, as evidenced by the following:
(A) Every year, more than 2,400,000 people in the United States use a gun to defend themselves against criminals--or more than 6,500 people a day. This means that, each year, firearms are used 60 times more often to protect the lives of honest citizens than to take lives.
(B) Of the 2,400,000 self -defense cases, more than 192,000 are by women defending themselves against sexual abuse.
(C) Of the 2,400,000 times citizens use their guns to defend themselves every year, 92 percent merely brandish their gun or fire a warning shot to scare off their attackers. Less than 8 percent of the time, does a citizen kill or wound his or her attacker.
(3) Law-abiding citizens , seeking only to provide for their families' defense, are routinely prosecuted for brandishing or using a firearm in self -defense. For example:
(A) In 1986, Don Bennett of Oak Park, Illinois, was shot at by 2 men who had just stolen $1,200 in cash and jewelry from his suburban Chicago service station. The police arrested Bennett for violating Oak Park's handgun ban. The police never caught the actual criminals.
(B) Ronald Biggs, a resident of Goldsboro, North Carolina, was arrested for shooting an intruder in 1990. Four men broke into Biggs'residence one night, ransacked the home and then assaulted him with a baseball bat. When Biggs attempted to escape through the back door, the group chased him and Biggs turned and shot one of the assailants in the stomach. Biggs was arrested and charged with assault with a deadly weapon -- a felony. His assailants were charged with misdemeanors.
(C) Don Campbell of Port Huron, Michigan, was arrested, jailed, and criminally charged after he shot a criminal assailant in 1991. The thief had broken into Campbell's store and attacked him. The prosecutor plea-bargained with the assailant and planned to use him to testify against Campbell for felonious use of a firearm. Only after intense community pressure did the prosecutor finally drop the charges.
(4) The courts have granted immunity from prosecution to police officers who use firearms in the line of duty. Similarly, law-abiding citizens who use firearms to protect themselves, their families, and their homes against violent felons should not be subject to lawsuits by the violent felons who sought to victimize them.

Organizers with the annual Christmas luncheon are looking for businesses interested in becoming drop-off locations for heaters and blankets.
Currently, there are only ten businesses signed up. Last year, the program did not have enough heaters to give out. That is why this year they are also taking blankets this year.

Harold Madison1 Stars Out Of 5March 18, 2009Harold MadisonSince 1991 I have invested over $500 in PC Study Bible software, including upgrades.In the fall of 08 I ordered Preaching and Teaching from the Old Testament, as advertised in Biblesoft News, Vol 11, No 6. It included Version 5 Program-ONLY UPGRADE. To say I am VERY DISAPPOINTED is a gross understatement. The way Word Study was implemented in the old DOS version was what made Bible Soft a great program. Unfortunately through one of the upgrades I have lost this feature. To their credit, they do honor their unconditional money back guarantee.(for the last upgrade only)PC Study Bible has some neat features (maps, pictures etc.) that are nice to have but that I rarely used. Overall, comparatively, it is very expensive, very slow and very cumbersome. For serious study I now use Power Bible CD 5.4 (on both my computers, one is a new laptop) and PC Study Bible, DOS Version 3.1 Word Study Series (1993 edition) on my Windows 98 desktop machine. By the way, Study Bible 3.1 runs very quickly in a DOS window of my Windows 98 desktop.Power Bible CD is greased lightening compared to PC Study Bible. As a comparison, PCSB takes 2 minutes, 17 seconds just to launch the application. Power Bible CD launches in 11 seconds. This is on the same computer. I would say that is a fair comparison on how fast they do just about anything, even something as simple as closing a window. For $19.00 you can buy one licensed copy of Power Bible CD and get one free, one of which you are encouraged to give to a friend (http://www.powerbible.com/). Features are comparable to BibleSoft except for (Vines) Greek Hebrew Word Study, pictures and maps. It does include Strong's.

Ron Gardenhire, a curse, and the fate of the Twins
Ron Gardenhire is facing, or should be facing, some serious heat with his Twins in the AL Central basement. After all, the local nine were picked to walk away with the division, or at the very least get into some serious fisticuffs with Chicago or Detroit.
But are the Twins' myriad failings the results of early season slumps? Multiple injuries (including a bizarre, rampaging flu bug)? Or are the Twins the victim of a curse --the Curse of the Manager of the Year Award?
The man from Okmulgee is overseeing a squad that can't hit (they rank last in both leagues in this department), can barely pitch, and make awful teams like Baltimore and Kansas City looking like playoff contenders.
It would be easy to chalk their current streak of futility to offense and defense, crunching numbers that prove one theory or another. But I'd rather crunch numbers to come up with some mystically bizarre ailment that may have nothing to do with anything. Thus, the Curse of the Manager of the Year Award.
Since 1996, teams whose manager has won this prestigious award have dropped an average of 13.4 games the following season. Using even more advanced mathematical equations, I've concluded that this would result in roughly 80 wins this season for the Twins.
No one takes their division with an '80' in the left column, which would result in a losing record of 80-82.
Only once in the last fifteen seasons has a manager followed up a Manager of the Year campaign with a better record the next year. That was Joe Torre's 1997 Yankees, who won four more contests than the 1996 squad (the year he won the prize.)
Now, it's true that in some cases there's simply no way to top incredible success. It would be patently unfair to assume that Joe Torre could follow up leading the Yanks to 114 wins in '98 with more the following year (he won it in 1996 and 1998.)
In fact, the next season, 1999, the Yanks took sixteen fewer games, but tore through the league anyway, en route to another World Series title.
But then again, if you look over the list, there's a lot of clubs whose managers take home that august prize, only to totally collapse the next year. Mike Scioscia's Angels won 99 games in 2002, but would only take 77 the following year.
In 2003, Kansas City's Tony Pena won 83 games and gave the city its first winning record in years. Next year, they lost 104 games. He was fired in early 2005.
What all this means to me is that a lot of times, most times in fact, these managers are pulling a hell of a lot out of their clubs for one season, but heck if they're going to do it again. At least not right away.
Gardy, of course, has done this a number of seasons, and has narrowly missed wining the Manager of the Year Award. As many of us know, he ranked second five times.
As two-time MotY Sparky Anderson once said, "if you have good players, and if you keep them in the right frame of mind, then the manager is a success. The players make the manager; it's never the other way."
Unless, of course, the baseball gods curse a manager whenever he wins one of these damned awards. Players win MVPs and Cy Youngs in back-to-back seasons; managers never have.
And another thing: no Central Division team whose manager has won the Manager of the Year Award went to the playoffs the following season. Just sayin'.

The wondrous windmill wyvern by Team Steam. Team Steam includes me, Architect, and 55555.
Architect: [link]
55555: [link]
This was built during Brickfair using a very limited supply of pieces. I fixed up a few areas that were loose after Brickfair, but left the bulk of the model untouched.
This damned model is impossible to photoshop. I tried twice and both were dreadful.

Man, I love dragon-types.
What's the giant tube thing
It's from a Mars or moonbase set I believe. I can't remember what category it's under so I can link you to it. Sorry about that.
you should do megaman or zero
Only if they're commissioned. Not interested otherwise.
Do you paint the pieces?
Incredible. You just don't stop amazing me with your work, do you?
wow amazing peice
If you are trying to think of a way to make the neck moveable, use the Rahkshi thighs. best for anything with segments. better than beams. trust me. Although it depends on how heavy the head is
I know about that. Hero Factory joints are stronger. The head weight is not really an issue. The tube bends back too much and will force the neck to bend less than I want it to. I haven't tried it out yet, but it's not an important feature for this model.
Iguessed since you built it AT the Brickfair. Will you be at the one in NH also in 2013?
I don't plan on attending. It's farther away than Virginia, and I don't have the funds to go to it.
ok. Thanks for the obvious advice though. It improved my style drastically.
Which advice? I can tailor that advice more specifically to you if you show me some of your latest builds, if you'd like.
Your advice to try and make the next MOC better than the last. Greixin is a new one as he was updated. I will post what I can get a picture of. My camera broke recently so...
That's an impressive creation there!
I really like those wings! they remind me of the Flying machine in Assassin's Creed 2!
is the neck one of those tubes from the lego mars way back when.
how did you use the mars tube?
are the legs a wee bit weak?
but i like <:'D
but i like <:'D
The hip connection is but not the legs. I need to secure the hip to the skeleton better. The legs are plenty strong enough to hold the model up.
Is that a lego piece on its fore head?
So that's why Don Quixote was charging at the windmill...
wow, tahats amazing!
i actually like this alot! its rare to see you do a sort of minimalist work, and even though it was a team build, it looks just awesome! Those wings are to die for..
I love minimalist builds. But I just don't have the time for them around the more detailed builds.
i'd very much like to see some in the future then! even a smallscale build would be neat to see.
It looks very regal.
Awesome! Excellent use of the Mars tube and Rocka mask.
Epic stuff as always!

Dear manishkrag,
First I want to thank you for this simple but very powerful plugin. I would like to use it in combination to the stratus.sc Soundcloud Player (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/stratus/) so that the visitors on my website can listen to some music and still surf through the website.
There is a function in stratus called "Dynamically Add Tracks" by creating a link with class "stratus". It then would directly add the Soundcloud track behind the link to the playlist. See http://stratus.sc for further information.
However, this function is not working when I have your plugin enabled, the link is opened as a normal website. If I disable the Ajaxify plugin it works as expected.
Can you tell me if I can fix this issue on the side of your plugin? I assume that there is a conflict on the event listener to links, but I'm not an intermediate in working with jQuery and JS.
You can see the demo on http://rimshot.ch/musik/ , the link "Get Away" is in class "stratus".
Thanks in advance.

"kitinka's Yerevan Page" Yerevan by kitinka
Yerevan Travel Guide: 273 reviews and 1,047 photos
There is a great number of high mountains in Armenia. The highest of it is Aragats (4090) meters.
On the territory of Armenia there are 10 natural lakes, 15 swift rivers, 5 canyons which form a common lacework of high and low peaks. Come to this Promised Land where you can see man-made miracles next to the natural wonders. The embroidery of crosses carved in the cliffs continues the natural genesis. Or have a look at the monastery of Geghard located in a dark ravine. For centuries the artisans struggled against the stones and created a monument carved in the cliffs as if no human hand has ever touched it.In Jermuk, Bjni, Dilijan and other resorts you can heal different diseases by taking a bath in mineral waters. The waterfall of Shaki is one of the aquatic beauties of Armenia, which, splitting the chest of cliffs, falls from an altitude of 18 meters into the ravine and flows into the river Vorotan which passes through Sunik and joins the river Araks.
Step into virgin forests of Armenia and you will see different animals and birds. You can go hunting, just try and probably you will not be disappointed. Armenia is beautiful not only in summer but also in winter when the mountains and valleys are covered with snow. In Tsakhkadzor town by an aerial cableway you can go up to the top of Mount Teghenis, contemplate the magnificence of the highland, have a cup of oriental coffee prepared on hot sand and sky down the mountains. The Shirak valley can also offer you winter sport opportunities.
In valleys and particularly on the shore of Sevan or on the banks of Araks you can watch the transmigration of birds in spring and fall, enjoy the singing of flamingos and storks of different species and colors. Walk the streets of Armenia towns that are full of greenery. Each of them is like a garden where you can extend your hand and pick up a mulberry or a cherry, a peach or an apricot. Each town has its own legend and history, its date of establishment.
This is not an exaggeration; some of the trees in the streets are fruit-trees. For instance, Yerevan - the 13th capital of Armenia - became 2780 years old in 1998, it is even older than Cartagena. Yerevan is nice with its old and new buildings, broad streets, large and small museums and exhibitions. If you wish to see the whole Yerevan you have to go to Victory park and the whole city will be seen spread at the foot of gorgeous Ararat. If you strain your imagination just a little you will notice the Noah's Arch in the snows of Ararat. Humankind was reborn here, populated this valley and on the territory of Armenia Christianity was adopted as a state religion for the first time.
Visit Yerevan museums, Sardarapat, and Giumri, and you will love Armenia as we do.

New Treatments for Diabetes to Be Unveiled
June 21, 2001 -- What's on every diabetic's wish list of medical advances? Short of an out-and-out cure, the most hoped-for development would likely be some way to avoid the constant, painful pricking that comes along with checking your blood sugar levels and taking insulin shots.
Although they're still in development, various attempts to answer that wish will be unveiled at the upcoming meeting of the American Diabetes Association, or ADA, held this year in Philadelphia. Among the new items: disposable contact lenses that can monitor your levels of blood sugar; insulin that comes in a pill or an inhaler and not a needle; a wristwatch-style device that reports on your blood sugar electronically; and even an implantable monitor and insulin pump combination said to function together like an artificial pancreas.
Also up for discussion are the highly anticipated follow-up results to the so-called Edmonton protocol. This innovative program used immunosuppressive drugs to make diabetes patients much less likely to reject islet cell transplants intended to make their pancreas once again produce insulin. This was last year's big story from the ADA meeting, and the advance news is that it may once again be the blockbuster of the conference.
The Stats Are Staggering
Why the excitement, and urgency, about advances in treating -- and maybe curing -- diabetes?
Simply put, rates of this limb- and life-stealing disease have never been higher in the U.S. -- currently 16 million Americans have diabetes, a disease in which the body does not produce or properly use insulin.
The hormone insulin is needed to transport sugar and fat from food into cells for storage. When there isn't enough insulin to do the job, the sugar, or glucose, remains high in the blood in people with diabetes, and wreaks havoc on the body and its organs.
Some numbers: People with diabetes have as much as a fourfold increased risk of heart disease and stroke. The disease is the leading cause of blindness and kidney failure in the U.S., and it's responsible for 90,000 amputations per year.
In just the past decade, there's been a 40% increase in diabetes in the U.S.-- and a 70% increase among people in their 30s. Most of the increase is in type 2 diabetes, the form of the disease most closely tied to obesity. In type 2 diabetes, the body doesn't properly use insulin. In type 1 disease, the body fails to produce insulin.

Hold on to your Die Hard marathon ticket stubs, because a sixth movie is already in the works The fifth installment of the franchise, A Good Day to Die Hard, is due out Feb. 14, and Bruce Willis has delivered an early Valentine's Day gift to his fans with confirmation of a Die Hard 6.
According to Bleeding Cool, when Willis was asked by BBC's One Show if there would be a Die Hard 6, he smiled and said only, "Yes." That's enough of a confirmation for us, as he's the backbone of the series and the main thing that's been keeping it alive the past 25 years.
Yes, Die Hard is 25, and 20th Century Fox and Willis want to keep the momentum going. Interestingly enough, the fourth Die Hard movie, Live Free or Die Hard, has grossed the most money in theaters, and hopefully A Good Day to Die Hard will surpass its $134.5 million domestic haul.
Directed by John Moore (Behind Enemy Lines, Max Payne), A Good Day to Die Hard sends John McClane to Russia, where his estranged son (played by Jai Courtney) is caught up in a daring prison escape of a rogue political leader. The film also stars Sebastian Koch and Yuliya Snigir.
I really hope this is false but I read somewhere that the bad guy of this film is Hanz Gruebers Sister? please be wrong…
one of the greatest small joys in my life are the titles to the die hard franchise, i cannot wait to hear what they are going to call the next one
i thought originally this one was called die hard 24/7

I'm trying to understand why the new tagging system is only for posts and not for pages. Is there some technical problem or what?
Can see this subject will need stickying
Design decision. WordPress doesn't support tags or categories on Pages.
There is this plugin:
That's a start, but when you go to the URL/?tag=xx page, the pages do not show up. That was a functionality Simple Tagging Plugin had.
Can someone restore that? I have header pages for my tag links. I can probably do it on my own...
To be honest, I'm a little ticked that the functionality is different. If I would have known that I wouldn't have upgraded.
jonerikstorm--have you considered restoring to your backup?
I have considered it, but it doesn't work even with new pages.
Don't get me wrong, I'm stoked on the upgrade, and I'm thankful for the plugin, too.
I just didn't think that the /?tag=foo would go away...
Which file controls the query variable? I'll write the code if necessary.
The plugin now works fine, try it.
I can understand not having categories on pages, but tags provide a different function and would be useful on pages. I guess I won't be using the tags function in 2.3 at all and will be continuing to use a plugin instead. The plugin will also be useful for meta keywords, which the new tag feature apparently doesn't support.
I don't want to sound unappreciative (WordPress rocks!) but the new WordPress feature isn't at all useful for me and probably not for a lot of other people either.
Haecceity: Use a plugin to extend tags to pages if you like:
I tried installing tags4page but how to make the tags show in the tag cloud widget is a mystery.
"To view the tags in your blog you have to add the WordPress function <?php the_tags(); ?> to your themes, please refer to the documentation page for more information (http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_tags).?"
Yes, but which file does this piece of code need to go in, and where?
The Template Tag, the tags(), needs to be in The Loop and that typically is in your theme's index.php file.
On the other hand, the Template Tag, wp_tag_cloud(), does not need to be in The Loop, so you might want to put that in your sidebar.php file.

hi folks!
for pages tagging functionality with wordpress 2.3 have a look at this post on my weblog.
I get tired of everything always having to be in the loop which is limited to what page, I wish WP would be more flexible in allowing us to put anything anywhere we want on any page

Human Right to Food
How the Food Industry is Feeding Us Lies
By Carol Schachet
July 1st, 2015
A new report exposes an ugly truth about advertising and deception that really comes as no surprise: Industrial food giants create and fund front organizations to conduct stealth public relations campaigns to downplay the dangers of chemical-intensive agriculture and undermine organic food.
Talking about Women, Grassroots Training and Social Change
Over the last decade, thousands of community leaders received training at the Central American Training Center in Nicaragua. This center, run by our partner the Association of Rural Workers (ATC) enables the Via Campesina to offer extensive training to small-farmer leaders from throughout the region in agroecology and building powerful, democratic organizations.
In this video, Maria Jose Urbina, Coordinator of the National Women's Commission of the Via Campesina and the Association of Rural Workers, discusses her work with the ATC, and the importance of land rights for rural workers and women.
The Sustainable Path Forward
By Christopher Carroll
May 27th, 2015
People who are concerned about climate disruption and hunger are talking more and more about agroecology, that is, using ecological, economic, cultural, and gender justice principles to inform agricultural practices and systems. And those people are joining Grassroots International and our global partners in advocating for a shift toward agroecology to create a more sustainable future.
Agroecology Declaration lays out the path for a sustainable, healthy planet
Small-scale food producers and global movement leaders gathered in Mali earlier this year to lay out a plan to transform and repair our food system and the rural world that has been devastated by industrial food production. Their declaration (below) spells out specific values, strategies, challenges and next-steps to not only feed the world, but also address climate change by advancing agroecology.
Hosted by Grassroots International grantee CNOP (the National Coordination of Peasant Organizations) and La Via Campesina, among several other leading agroecology organziations, the International Forum on Agroecology outlined agroecology is a key form of resistance to the commodification of food and seeds, and moves toward a healthy planet.
Engaging and Impacting Philanthropy
Grassroots International recently participated in the 2015 Just Giving Conference sponsored by EDGE Funders Alliance. Entitled "Better. Not More: Towards a Just Transition," the conference worked to create a space within philanthropy to explore the deeper philosophical ideas that animate contemporary politics, economy, and culture. Within this space, participants were encouraged to consider four goals for the transition to a just economy: 1) Decommodify nature; 2) Reimagine work; 3) Liberate knowledge; and 4) Democratize wealth.
The Best Way to Feed the Billions
We share planet Earth with nearly 7.3 billion people. By 2050, there will be 9.6 billion of us, according to the United Nations. That's a gain of one person every 15 seconds—or about 74 million more people each year—and each another mouth to feed.
Some claim we need to increase world food production by 70 percent to avoid future shortages, especially in developing countries, where the greatest population increases are expected over the next 35 years. Are they right? It's a question that many, including the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization's Population Institute, are raising.
Radical Farmers Use Fresh Food to Fight Racial Injustice and the New Jim Crow
In August, five young men showed up at Soul Fire Farm, a sustainable farm near Albany, New York, where I work as educator and food justice coordinator. It was the first day of a new restorative justice program, in partnership with the county's Department of Law. The teens had been convicted of theft, and, as an alternative to incarceration, chose this opportunity to earn money to pay back their victims while gaining farm skills. They looked wary and unprepared, with gleaming sneakers and averted eyes.
"I basically expected it to be like slavery, but it would be better than jail," said a young man named Asan. "It was different though. We got paid and we got to bring food home. The farmers there are black like us, which I did not expect.
Stories of Victory and Struggle from 2014
Grassroots International and our global partners are leading the way in developing sustainable solutions to the biggest challenges facing our world. From farming cooperatives and seed banks, to passing laws that protect ancestral lands and defending the human right to land, water, and food, together we take on big struggles and win important gains. Below are just some of the successes achieved in 2014 with support from Grassroots International, standing up to challenge poverty, climate disruption and human rights abuses.
Moving Towards an International Declaration on the Rights of Peasants
Shared Knowledge, Shared Struggle
Below is part one of a three-part blog series highlighting the Brazil Agroecology Learning Exchange. Grassroots movement leaders and small farmer organizations sent representatives [24 people from 6 countries] to join Grassroots International staff in Goias, Brazil to participate in the eight-day exchange. The first of our series of blogs unpacks the phrase "Agroecology Learning Exchange" and why it is essential to creating a more sustainable food system.
Two Dreams Come True in Brazil
Geraldo de Matos Barbosa and Maria Elena each had a dream when they joined the Landless Workers Movement (MST) 13 years ago. The couple has been part of the movement in Maranhão, Brazil including six years living in a dusty encampment, enduing six violent evictions before finally securing title to the land.
The process of shifting from an encampment (without buildings, electricity and sometimes even water) to a settlement helped make both their dreams come true. Grasssroots International's support for land rights in Brazil, including with the MST, provides much-needed solidarity and funding for the movement, and for the apsirations of the courageous individuals putting themselves on the front lines of the struggle.

Theater Benefit Bonanza
posted by April 4 at 12:46 PMon
Theaters are all poor and starving and stufflittle chimney sweeps and matchbox girls, wandering the landscape, begging for penniesand this weekend, a bunch are throwing benefit parties.
There's Toast and Jam for Mirror Stage Company (a raffle and jazz) and Food as Art for the Central District Forum for Arts and Idea ($100 tickets to sample tasting stations by chefs from Campagne, Tavolata, and others).
But I would like to draw your attention to two in particular.
Saturday: Mad WET Tea Party, for Washington Ensemble Theatre. WET's going through changesfor one, a logo redesign because of this dumb legal threat from a company in New York. (The column I've linked to ran in October, though not much has changedthe wheels of injustice turn slowly.) For two, the departure of Marya Sea Kaminksi, which I frame as dispiriting news in this column. But I shouldn't be such a grump. The company has several younger members (Michael Place, Elise Hunt) who, I have every hope, will pick up the banner and run. Run like crazy.
Also, a few weeks ago, someone stole WET's cash box during a production of Mr. Marmalade, setting the company back a few hundred bucks. So go. Enjoy. Give them money. Consider it a civic investment in one of the city's best companies.
Friday: SongDanceOther, for On the Boards. Allegedly, there will be three karaoke machines, with artists and others going bonkers to their favorite songs, in ways no karaoke bar would allow. (The OtB crew is infamous at Ozzie's, across the street from the theater, for reckless post-show karaoke parties with touring artists doing loud, bizarre, and sometimes obnoxious versions of their favorite karaoke songs. Apparently the bouncers sometimes get a little agitated.)
There will be beer. And Vietnamese sandwiches. They will be cheap!

Android Internet Tablet from Archos
Electronics manufacturer Archos has introduced its new ARM-based multimedia player including Linux platform Android in collaboration with Google. An additional DVR docking station allows the device to morph into a video recorder.
The Archos 5 Internet Tablet comes with WLAN, email, address book, not to mention an FM transmitter and receiver (RDS).The sleek player, including flash memory, is just one centimeter thick, weighs 182 grams, and can be purchased in either 8, 32, or 64 GB. A Micro SD slot can be used additionally to extend memory capability.
Archos also offers two variations with 160 and 500 GB hard drives, respectively. The manufacturer swears by quick programs thanks to the ARM Cortex microprocessor from Texas Instruments. The Archos 5 has a 4..8 inch tall touchscreen with a resolution of 800 x 400 pixels. In terms of all things relating to connections, Archos 5 offers WLAN, Bluetooth, and of course a USB slot.
The multimedia player can play a whole slew of video formats such as MPEG4, HD, H.264 HD, WMV, MPEG, MP3, as well as WMA, WAV, and Ogg Vorbis and also boasts software plug-ins for AC3 stereo. Over the Android platform Appslib store, further applications can broaden the device's horizons of functionality even more. The Archos 5 can even be turned into a GPS with 3-D navigation, via plug-in. The applications can be displayed in either horizontal or vertical orientation, depending on the user's needs. If the customer is willing to invest a measly 100 dollars for a DVR docking station, the device can grace the viewer's eyes with high resolution videos in HD quality and is also capable of displaying LCD TV. For Microsoft Office users, an Office View application is also integrated in this versatile little electronic.
The Archos 5 Internet Tablet is available as of today. The 16 GB version has been marked at a recommended price of $300, while the version with 32 GB should cost about $380.

I noticed in this video, that the terminal prompt extends the entire width of the terminal before breaking down to a new line. How can I set my
PS1 variable to fill the remaining terminal space with some character, like the way this user did?
The issue is, I don't know how to update the
PS1 variable per command. It seems to me, that the string value for
PS1 is only read in once just as the
.bashrc file is only read in once. Do I have to write some kind of hook after each command or something?
I should also point out, that the
PS1 variable will be evaluated to a different length based on the escape characters that make up it. For example,
\w print the path.
I know I can get the terminal width using
$(COLUMNS), and the width of the current
PS1 variable with
${#PS1}, do the math, and print the right amount of buffer characters, but how do I get it to update everytime. Is there a preferred way?

All Rise...
Judge Joel Pearce says Divide failed to conquer.
The Charge
"Your face looks like the end of the world."—one schoolgirl prostitute to another
The Case
I'm going to start out this review with a few important statements:
I need to clear that up before I start to explain just how much I hate Divide. I have a lot of patience for low-budget filmmaking, but I have no tolerance for pretentious crap—and that's really all this is. It exists as an exercise in directorial indulgence; it's pretty much a waste of time for anyone else.
As far as I can tell, Divide is about Saki, a high schooler who is searching for a long-lost twin sister. In order to find her, she ends up in an underground world of teen prostitution and drugs (neither of which we actually see evidence of). There are also subplots that involve fights between the teenage prostitutes, their freaky pimp, and one of Saki's creepy teachers. All of these stories are told out of order, though, so this is just my best guess.
Arrogance is a bad trait for a first-time filmmaker. Director Tsujioka Masato has lots of it, though, to the point that he's actually labeled his first film "a Tsujioka Masato world," rather than "a Tsujioka Masato film." He used every filter he could find in his editing software, throwing in transitions, musical cues, and color filters as though they were about to be taken away forever. He wants to tell multiple stories at the same time, and knows that the cool thing these days is to tell stories out of chronological order.
Well, Masato may have his own sense of style, but he has a lot to learn about filmmaking. Stylistic quirks need to support the plot and characters, which fails to happen in Divide. Two characters drive in a car, which is intercut with wild colorful patches and punctuated by roaring punk music. It's a pretty wild scene, but it ends with the two characters driving up to a building, and looking at each other in silence for 10 seconds. The style is there, but it never really goes anywhere. This is one of many examples of his stylistic overachievement, and I found myself cringing each time. He has the technique down, but hasn't used those techniques to create something worthwhile.
To make matters worse, Divide is a film with no teeth. It sets itself up as a punk film, with no order, no purpose, angry at the world. It's strictly PG-13 territory, though, which doesn't line up with the style and content. The girls are prostitutes, but all we ever see them do is serve drinks to clients in a club. We witness an underground world of violence, but most of the violence cuts away to stock footage of battleship guns firing. They talk about the drug culture, but we never see any of the characters obtaining, holding, or using said drugs. If Masato wants to create cinematic anarchy, he's going to need to grow a pair of balls and learn from Japan's truly edgy directors. Takashi Miike could have made this film work, and Shinya Tsukamoto could have turned it into a classic.
The disastrous nature of Divide culminates in its poor production values. The sound recording is terrible, so much of the dialogue is harsh. The sound mix keeps peaking, and we can hear the voices clipping out sometimes. The editing is poor, for all the flash, with no consistency in look, tone, and feel. Pathfinder's DVD doesn't help matters any. The video transfer isn't progressive, so movement creates combing any time there's movement (which is most of the time). The subtitles don't make much sense, either, and I can't tell how much of it is the film's bad dialogue, and how much of it is poor translation. The only extra is a production featurette, which fails to offer any insight into the purpose of the film.
I do always try to find positive aspects of the films I review, but the only one I can find here is the film's graciously short running time. I only had to suffer through an hour of Divide, and I'm not sure I could have taken much more. Pathfinder usually makes much better international choices than this, so I'm not sure why they picked up this one for international release. Fortunately, just because it's been released doesn't mean you have to watch it. In fact, I strongly recommend that you don't.
Guilty? Oh, hell, yes. Masato needs to spend some more time learning from the directors he's worked with.
Give us your feedback!
Did we give Divide a fair trial? yes / no
What's "fair"? Whether positive or negative, our reviews should be unbiased, informative, and critique the material on its own merits.

|Kelly Olynyk suspended 1 game next season for arm bar on Kevin Love, J.R. Smith gets 2 games for hit on Jae Crowder
|04.27.15 at 9:31 pm ET
The NBA didn't waste much time handing out their discipline from Sunday's Game 4 altercations between the Celtics and Cavaliers.
Rod Thorn, the league's president of basketball operations, announced that Celtics big man Kelly Olynyk was suspended one game without pay at the start of the 2015-16 season for his "arm bar" that resulted in a dislocated left shoulder for Cavs star big man Kevin Love.
The Cavaliers announced Monday that Love would miss the entire second round series with a dislocated left shoulder from the incident.
Cavaliers guard J.R. Smith has been suspended two games without pay for his violent arm swing that resulted in flush contact with Jae Crowder's jaw. Crowder was stunned and momentarily knocked out. As Crowder fell to the ground, his left knee buckled and bent underneath him, resulting a sprained ACL, as the Celtics announced on Monday. Smith will serve his suspension in Games 1 and 2 of the 2015 NBA Eastern Conference semifinals when the Cavaliers host the winner of the Chicago Bulls vs. Milwaukee Bucks series.
That incident resulted in Crowder leaving the game and not returning. Smith was assessed with a "Flagrant 2" foul and immediately ejected with 10:24 left in the third quarter.
Additionally, Cavaliers center Kendrick Perkins's second quarter "Flagrant 1" foul on a screen set on Crowder has been upgraded to a "Flagrant 2" and he has been fined $15,000.
Smith's incident, during which he swung his arm and made contact with the head of Celtics forward Jae Crowder, resulted in a Flagrant Foul 2 and his ejection at the 10:24 mark of the third quarter of the game.
|Isaiah Thomas on being swept out by Cavs: 'We feel like we deserve more'
|04.26.15 at 11:56 pm ET
Finishing the regular season with a six-game winning streak left a lot of Celtics fans hoping they would at least be able to steal a game from the Cavaliers in the first round.
Instead, those fans will have to settle for having made life difficult for four games on LeBron James and company.
That, however, is not enough to satisfy players or coaches, as they admitted after Sunday's 101-93 season-ending loss in Game 4 at TD Garden.
"We feel like we deserve more," Isaiah Thomas said. "We're proud, but we're not satisfied. We see that this team has a lot of potential, we work hard, we like playing with each other, we play extremely hard and those are the keys to success. Its frustrating to see the season end like it did, but we got to try to build from this and come back next year ready for war."
"It's not about individuals, we are going home, so we could care less how we played at the end of the game," Jared Sullinger said in referencing the several second half charges the Celtics put on only to come up short. "The fact of the matter is, we didn't get any wins, and it was a good way to, I guess, end the season but at the same time our main focus and objective was to get a win tonight and we failed."
Now, the mission for the players who return to Boston next season is to use the experience and build for next season, as Brad Stevens suggested after the game. Read the rest of this entry »
|LeBron James says Brad Stevens 'put [Celtics] in position to win'
|04.26.15 at 11:38 pm ET
For all the harsh words between the players Sunday after Cleveland ended Boston's season with a 101-93 win in Game 4, LeBron James had nothing but respect for the job coach Brad Stevens did in getting his team to play hard to the final buzzer.
After losing by 13 in the first game, the Celtics lost three straight, all by eight points. In each game, the Celtics made a late run to keep things interesting before succumbing to the better team.
"I highly respect their coaching staff and especially their head coach," James said. "[They're] a very well-coached team. He put those guys out there every night and put them in position to win the game and I think Brad Stevens is a very good young coach in our league."
For a team that finished 40-42, the Celtics gave the Cavaliers about as much of a fight as could've been expected.
Then James spoke to what it means to have finally beaten the Celtics in the playoffs with Cleveland, after losses in 2008 and 2010.
"This franchise is one of the most winning franchises in NBA history, [along] with the Lakers," James said. "So, everyone knows the history between the Lakers and the Celtics and what they've done for this league. So for me, to have a chapter in my career, multiple chapters, of playing against the Celtics, I think it's great for the story that [the media can] tell."
This is the second time James has sent the Celtics packing, beating them in seven games in the Eastern finals in 2012. That year, the Heat went on to beat the Oklahoma City Thunder, giving LeBron his first NBA title. James is now eight wins away from his fifth straight trip to the NBA finals, a goal that is clearly again on his radar.
"Our long term goal is obviously to win the championship but right now we have short term goals and that's to prepare ourselves for the next round and get ready for the challenge that presents itself," James said. "It was a great first test for our team. We're a young team, we have some vets but we're a young team together. The Celtics gave us the test that we needed. Some things that we haven't seen in the regular season, and it will prepare us for the second round, which will be much tougher, we know that."
|Jae Crowder knocked out of game with sprained left knee after J.R. Smith fist to jaw
|04.26.15 at 2:51 pm ET
A brutally physical game for Jae Crowder ended just 96 seconds into the second half Sunday in Game 4 against the Cavaliers.
J.R. Smith swung his elbow underneath the Celtics basket, and his fist connected with Jae Crowder, knocking out Crowder temporarily. But the bigger damage came as he fell to the floor. Crowder's lower left leg bent underneath him as he fell, suffering a game-ending sprain.
Crowder was on the floor for several minutes before being helped up and assisted to the Celtics locker room, where the team ruled him out for the rest of the game.
Unlike Kendrick Perkins, who drilled Crowder with a forearm to the jaw in the second quarter on a screen, Smith was ejected with a "Flagrant 2" foul.
|Kevin Love suffers left shoulder injury and out for the game after getting caught up with Kelly Olynyk
|04.26.15 at 1:27 pm ET
With 5:22 left in the first quarter, Kevin Love was entangled with Kelly Olynyk on a fight for a loose ball rebound and appeared to seriously injure his left shoulder.
He raced immediately to the Cavaliers locker room, holding his left shoulder.
The Cavaliers announced before the end of the quarter he would not return.
Olynyk was called for the personal foul.
|How sixth man Tristan Thompson continues to kill the Celtics off the bench
|04.24.15 at 10:45 am ET
Coming into this series, the Celtics knew they were going to have their hands full with LeBron James. They knew Kyrie Irving could score and big man Kevin Love could knock down big shots from behind the arc. They were well aware of JR Smith and his streaky ability to catch fire in spurts. All four of those players have had big moments in the first three games.
But they may have underestimated the impact of Tristan Thompson.
As a matter of fact, he may be the difference in the series so far coming off Cleveland's bench. Thompson has controlled the offensive glass and given the Cavaliers second chance after second chance. Against a team with the aforementioned weaponry, that's a formula for disaster.
There was no better example than in the final three minutes Thursday after Evan Turner's three-ball drew the Celtics to within three, 95-92, with 2:45 left. The Celtics appeared to have stopped the Cavaliers on a missed runner from Irving. But there was Thompson, the 6-foot-9 space-eater in the paint. He hauled down the rebound and quickly found Irving again, who dished to Love for an open three on the left wing. Love, who had forever to set himself, knocked it down. 98-92, with just 2:13 left.
With 51.9 seconds left and the Cavs lead just five, 98-93, James missed a jumper but there was that big man in the middle again. Thompson found LeBron, who found Love again. Three-pointer. Ball game.
Thompson had five of Cleveland's 11 offensive rebounds Thursday in the 103-95 Game 3 win. On Tuesday, he hauled in five of his team's 12 second chance rebounds. That's 10 offensive rebounds in a pair of eight-point wins.

This is gorgeous! I saw this and I thought that it would make a great background for my newest colored lineart. May I use it, as long as I credit you in the description and provide a link to your profile?
C'est absolument superbe!! J'ai envie d'un couloir comme ça chez moi

WOW! So beautiful! I don't think I can paint like that. The lighting and ambience is really wonderful.
Such a honor coming from you, I've been following you for such a long time... I love your work. Thank you so much! I'm pretty swamped right now but I'm wondering if you would ever consider a collab in the future, maybe?
I'm focusing more on developing my own style right now, but YES definitely I'd love to do a collab with you in the future. I'm sure by then you'll be really awesome, and I'd be begging to do one with you.
i would be happy if i could render pictures like that.
did u only manipulate the rendering in PS or did u paint parts of this picture?
