A year after two bombs hidden inside backpacks exploded at the Boston Marathon, police again were forced to evacuate the finish line area to investigate two suspicious backpacks, at least one of which was deposited by a man in a veil yelling "Boston strong."
According to Boston police, a man is now in custody in connection with the suspicious bags.
UPDATE 7:30 am: The man in custody has been identified as Kevin "Kayvon" Edson, a 25-year-old student at the Massachusetts College of Art and Design. Both backpacks contained rice cookers filled with confetti.
UPDATE 9:38 pm: Boston police and bomb squads have detonated both backpacks in controlled explosions. It's not yet clear what was inside them.

Kate Hudson in DSquared2 Denim Shirt and Paige Edgemont Jeans
Kate Hudson was spotted doing some house hunting in London. The actress donned her DSquared2 denim shirt and Paige Edgemont Jeans in Vanilla Bean again. This time she added a cold weather touch by pairing the look with a heavy knit cardigan and some Isabel Marant boots.
I like that we have seen Kate style this look for two different seasons now. It shows the versatility in each of the pieces, whether it be paired together or separately. I can't wait to see how else she will wear them. You can click here to purchase DSquared2 and Paige from SHOPBOP.
Kate Hudson in DSquared2 Denim Shirt and Paige Edgemont Jeans
Kate Hudson was spotted catching a flight at LAX Airport. For the flight, the actress wore a pair of the Paige Edgemont Jeans in Vanilla Bean with a DSquared2 denim shirt and some white pumps.
A denim shirt with white jeans is such a classic look that will never go out of style and I like that Kate edged up the combination by choosing the Edgemont jeans. It still feels clean, but a more youthful take that I can see many more women wearing. How many of you love this look? You can click here to purchase DSquared2 and Paige from SHOPBOP.
Gwen Stefani in DSquared2 Patched Boyfriend Jeans
Gwen Stefani stopped for the cameras backstage at the IHeartRadio show in New York City. The singer wore a pair of Patched Boyfriend Jeans by DSquared2 with a shirt from the label and some L.A.M.B. boots.
I think these jeans are really fun. The wash is just amazing and the addition of the patches just makes them quirky. But of course being Gwen, she took that fun to another level by adding a shirt that is in the same theme and some striped socks. Definitely a look that can be pulled off by very few, like her. Click here to purchase DSquared2 from SSENSE.
Gwen Stefani in DSquared2 Skinny Boyfriend Jeans
Gwen Stefani and the members of No Doubt were seen rehearsing for the Global Citizen Concert in New York City a few days ago.
For the rehearsal, Gwen wore her trusty DSquared2 Skinny Boyfriend jeans again, this time with a Global Citizen tank, a hat and some heels. I would go as far as to say that these are her favourite jeans right now. We are constantly spotting Gwen in them! They do look really good on her though. Buy DSquared2 online at LuisaViaRoma.

Research Institution:
AbstractToyon Research Corporation proposes to develop a low-cost, lightweight, networkable far-target locator for the command launch unit (CLU) of the Javelin anti-armor weapon system. The proposed Small, Tactical, Attitude-aided, Robust Locator for Enhanced Targeting (STARLET) will interface with the CLU and provide the location of the target selected by the gunner and transmit the target image along with the target position via a standard radio interface. The STARLET system will include a novel GPS-based attitude (GPS/A) sensor that will augment a digital compass subsystem and automate the magnetometer calibration process, thus reducing the operator workload and significantly improving the system performance. All system sensors, including all in-phase (I) and quadrature-phase (Q) GPS signals for each satellite, will be fused together using an ultra-tightly coupled (UTC) architecture making the system inherently robust to interference and the resulting target position more accurate. The GPS/A sensor will include a small anti-jam (AJ) GPS antenna that will further improve the interference suppression capability of the system. The STARLET system will be designed to closely interface with the Javelin CLU. During the Phase I effort Toyon will identify the system requirements, evaluate candidate components, fully define the system architecture and determine the predicted system performance and cost.

Product Design Considerations for Implementing 3D Audio Algorithms within Existing Multichannel Formats
This paper discusses the technical considerations of implementing 3-D audio loudspeaker/headphone algorithms with the multichannel formats available today. Demand for virtual surround sound requires engineers to use multichannel standards in ways never intended by their designers. The consumer audio industry's high expectations and inexperience with virtual audio creates unique engineering issues of which the potential solutions and trade-offs are discussed in this paper.

I'm new to all this stuff.
There's some documents on my server. A user send email on e.g email@example.com and one of document's must be changed(the way it's to be changed is specified in the email). So, first I need is to rise up a email server. Can someone advice me a simple manual on how to configure a email server? For now I don't need something extra-cool, just email-server(as simple as possible) which will be able to recieve email, and there must be an oppotunity e.g. launch .sh script to change documents when a email recieved.

I have a couple of questions. How would I add the TOC to a Category page?
I would like to have a table of contents for each category/archive page, but I cannot quite understand how/where to add the code.
And if I were to add the TOC to a page, where would the plugin gather the headers from? A page doesn't contain any posts (does it?)?
Sorry for the noobish questions, but I am having some start-problems here:)

After upgrading to this version, the "Add Media" button didn't bring up the popup. When I disabled the plugin, the button worked.
After upgrading to this version, the "Add Media" button didn't bring up the popup. When I disabled the plugin, the button worked.
Yup, here too. In addition this version makes it impossible to add tags on posts.
Also kills the Links button in the visual editor
I'm using Version 2.7.10 of the plugin on two different sites and just tested all three of these issues. Everything works for me!
I can confirm that after upgrading to Ultimate Security Checker 2.7.10 today, it broke my Add Media button on posts/pages. Also, when editing a post/page, the menu navigation on the right of the admin panel no longer popped out sub-menu items. Other pages within the admin panel displayed sub-menu items properly.
I have uninstalled only that plugin and everything returned to normal.
I forgot to say: After uninstalling this plugin, everything works fine again.
Perhaps the plugin conflicts with some themes or other plugins. To help the developer diagnose these problems, let's post links to our sites.
Here are two of my sites that use Version 2.7.10 of the plugin and WordPress 3.5.1:
All three types of functionality mentioned above work fine on these sites. Both sites use the Genesis theme framework from StudioPress.
It breaks the Media Uploader button in Twenty Eleven also.
The easy fix is to activate it - run the security check - then deactivate.
I'm using the Canvas theme from WooThemes on my website http://dentaldigitalphotography.com and have had the same problem with it breaking the "Add Media" and "Links" buttons. Deactivated the plugin and everything is working again.

A report on MOOCs in Maryland classrooms delivers encouraging results, but faculty members say shaping a course around another instructor's content can be tricky.
Another disciplinary organization endorses call for end of ties to all Israeli academic institutions.
Over the weekend more information has come out about some of the researchers, faculty members and students who were on the Malaysian Airlines plane that was shot down over Ukraine. Here are links to obituaries or other information:
Recent data on the political science job market have suggested that it is improving, but not for all subfields. Aaron Hoffman, a political scientist at Purdue University, has worked with data from the American Political Science Association to draw more attention to the subfield differences. He found that it is much more difficult to find an entry-level tenure-track job (based on applications per opening) in political theory and comparative politics than other fields. Public policy -- a relatively small field within political science -- appears to have the best job prospects.
Valerie Macon has resigned as poet laureate of North Carolina, just a week after she was appointed by Governor Pat McCrory, The News & Observer reported. Macon's appointment drew widespread criticism from literary figures and others in North Carolina, many of whom suggested that their Republican governor was trying to get in a dig at poetry by appointing someone who was not qualified for the position. Macon is a state civil servant whose work has been self-published. Further, her website (since removed) claimed incorrectly that she had been a Gilbert-Chappell Distinguished Poet, when in fact she had been in a program to be mentored by a Gilbert-Chappell Distinguished Poet. Past poet laureates in North Carolina have tended to be poets with numerous acclaimed collections (published by presses) and long teaching careers. Among the more detailed critiques of Macon's appointment is this one, in Indy Week.
The governor issued a statement after Macon resigned saying that he was bothered by "the way some in the poetry community have expressed such hostility and condescension toward an individual who has great passion for poetry and our state."
The Modern Language Association report on the Ph.D. in languages and literatures has already succeeded in sparking a lively debate. Some commentators have welcomed the report's general findings, while others have taken issue with its specific recommendations. Beyond these differences, a broad consensus has emerged that the current situation is unsustainable, and this recognition is key to moving forward. The relationship of doctoral education to the deteriorating conditions of the academic workforce demands transformative changes. If doctoral study is to thrive in more than a handful of elite institutions, the profession as a whole and at multiple levels must adopt a reform agenda. The urgency of change was the premise of the task force report, and change is what the critics of the report also demand.
The agreement goes even further. Like its critics, the members of the MLA task force that produced the report point to the persistently weak job market and the importance of advocating an increase in tenure-track positions. The report similarly criticizes the casualization of academic labor and the poor working conditions of most contingent faculty members. This advocacy stands explicitly in the tradition of the MLA, which in recent decades has analyzed and criticized these developments while providing resources such as the Committee on Contingent Labor's two recent projects: "Professional Employment Practices for Non-Tenure-Track Faculty Members" and a 2013 special issue of the ADE and ADFL Bulletin on contingent labor. I know my colleagues on the MLA Executive Council are committed to pursuing activism in this area and leading the scholarly association network toward collective action .
Yet the report does more than call for advocacy. It also calls for change within graduate programs, and this is where the consensus breaks down. Some critics of the report have staked out the position that the MLA should focus primarily on job market and working conditions issues and not on the academic programs in which our members teach and study. While the task force report underscores the importance of the labor question, it also recommends that the MLA engage the profession in considering internal reforms to serve graduate students more effectively. The difference between what the report says and what its critics argue is particularly clear on three points.
First, some complain that the report does not call for deep cuts in admissions to doctoral programs. Only such cuts, they argue, could address the weak job market in which there are more qualified candidates than tenure-track positions. In contrast, the task force report insists on maintaining accessibility to doctoral programs: Qualified students with an intellectual dedication to the fields of language and literature should have the opportunity to pursue advanced study. Access to higher education is a hallmark of a democratic society, and it is the precondition of diversity in our fields Still, if critics want to call for the closing of programs, which programs, one might ask, should be eliminated? How will closings not end up disadvantaging public institutions, where the majority of first-generation college students study? Calls to shutter departments rather than reform them most likely will play into the hands of university budget-cutters. The scope of the humanities in higher education in the United States already faces significant reduction. We should be fighting for the humanities rather than closing off advanced study, the key to their sustained presence in colleges and universities.
The labor market critics are proposing what amounts to a guild protectionism: by reducing access to doctorate education, the limited pool of degree holders will be guaranteed abundant and better jobs. This strikes me as a gross miscalculation that will only end with diminished opportunities for all students. In contrast, the MLA report envisions humanities education with a potential for growth in response to the expanded intellectual scope of our fields as well as to society's changing needs in classrooms and beyond.
A second flashpoint of dispute is time to degree. The report recommends that departments design programs that can be completed in five years and provide sufficient financial support for students to do so. Some commentators have viewed this time frame as an assault on quality. The point, however, is that currently around half of doctoral students take more than a decade to complete the Ph.D., which represents an enormous investment in time with limited prospects for return on the academic job market. Furthermore, there are no legitimate grounds for median time to degree in humanities fields to be significantly longer than in doctoral programs in the natural and social sciences. There would be nothing wrong for humanities scholars to adopt potentially more effective educational practices from these other fields. We language and literature faculty members need to develop and share new ideas for mentoring students, and departments need to ask how programs might be designed more effectively. As the appendix of the report demonstrates, some departments are already leading the way through reform initiatives that integrate the intellectual demands of humanistic study with a prudent rethinking of program structure.
A third point involves career outcomes for graduate students. It should be obvious to all faculty members that, as the MLA's 14 studies of Ph.D. placement make evident, at best only about half of new modern language doctorate recipients find tenure-track positions in the same year that they complete their degrees, and under 40 percent when academic job opportunities contract, as they did in the 1990s and have again since 2008. (Figure 2 in "Our PhD Employment Problem, Part 1" shows the summary findings for all 14 surveys, 1978 to 2010.)
Departments have an obligation to make this clear to applicants, yet such candor alone does not absolve departments of the responsibility of providing students with opportunities for professional development that can serve them well on multiple career paths. That is why the report points to possibilities such as curriculums designed to develop transferable skills, enhanced engagement with technology, and more effective use of other resources found throughout the university. The report also underscores the importance of pointing students to diverse career possibilities, not by singling out students for job-market tracking, but instead by engaging the graduate student community in exploring a widened career arc.
Doctoral recipients have a rich set of skills — in communication, research, and leadership — and those who do not find a tenure line should not have to settle for poorly compensated contingent positions. Those who view a job as a college professor as the only legitimate outcome of doctoral education fall into that labor market trap. That's why the report emphasizes the importance of discussing the broad range of career paths and providing students with the resources they need to expand their employment horizons.
Nonetheless, doctoral study should not be viewed exclusively as the pursuit of a career-oriented credential. It must also involve an intellectual passion for languages and literatures, as defined by our evolving disciplines. This is the foundation of successful graduate study. The qualities cultivated through intensive, long-term research and thoughtful, extended writing are not just transferable to other careers; they are valuable in their own right, just as it would be valuable to our culture as a whole — and particularly to the future of the academy — to have highly educated professionals who appreciate scholarly thoughtfulness and humanistic perspectives working throughout society. It has been pointed out in the public discussion of the report that many of its recommendations are not new. The academic community has been talking about these issues for a long time, and change is already under way. Time to degree is coming down, and some departments are initiating salutary program modifications. The profession has reached a tipping point, and the time has come for broad-based change. Doctoral study in the humanities fields contributes to the quality of society, it answers individual students' desire for intellectual depth, and it is a vital piece in the intellectual diversity of universities. If we want to preserve it, we need to reform it.
Russell A. Berman is professor of comparative literature and German studies at Stanford University. He led the task force that produced the MLA report.

Australian newspapers are reporting that the Malaysian Airlines flight that was shot down Thursday had many passengers who were AIDS researchers or public health workers headed to the 20th International AIDS Conference, which convenes Sunday in Melbourne, Australia. The International AIDS Society, the sponsor of the meeting, did not confirm how many people headed to the conference were on the flight. A statement on the society's website says: "In recognition of our colleagues' dedication to the fight against HIV/AIDS, the conference will go ahead as planned and will include opportunities to reflect and remember those we have lost."

The Edit Post page is acting really, really weird for one of my posts, and just fine on all others.
On this one page, here's what's weird:
- html code appears in visual editor (and html editor) ... in fact the edit window opens on the "visual" view with the "html" tools at the top. when i switch to html, the tab changes but nothing else. when i switch back to visual ...
- rich text controls disappear in visual editor (here's what that looks like - http://radiopie.org/closeandfar/misc/wp-weird.jpg)
- none of the media insert buttons work
- the "edit" functions for Status, Visibility and Publishing date do nothing (except when i click on Visibility, it scrolls halfway down the page?)
- the tags which appear on the published post and in the post list do not appear under tags
- on the left sidebar, nothing expands when i click on the menu expanding arrows by each section (keep in mind, these work a-o-k on every other view in my control panel.
- comments for this post, which appear on the blog and in the dashboard, are no longer visible on this page.
- and the revision history no longer appears, either.
the last thing i did that did work was delete an embedded image and then re-embed a different image.
i have tried deactivating and re-activating several plugins. i have tried clearing my cache. i am working in chrome on a mac, and i have tried working in firefox and safari. i have tried creating a new post, which seems to work fine, and i'd just re-post this content, but i don't want to lose some of the comments that are attached to this post.
again, it's just this one post ... and i've checked posts in other wordpress blogs i run, and they all seem to be doing fine.
i'm pulling my hair out. any help will be greatly appreciated.

From the story: 'Like polarizing sunglasses that block light waves oriented in different directions, the MIT researchers created a clever device that splits the light beams as they pass through a circuit. The device then rotates one of the polarized beams, before both beams are rejoined on their way out of the circuit, retaining the signals' strength. But it's not just that device that the researchers are touting. They're also trumpeting the innovative method they devised to integrate the optical circuitry with electronic circuitry on the same silicon chip.'"that would be really good.

HI guys/gals,
I have a question relating to unrated players new to chess.com. Why are they unrated? When I first joined chess.com,I was given a rating of 1200.Has this rule been abandoned by chess.com now?
Hi chess_guy. You can play rated or unrated it is your choice. Although perhaps you did not notice when you first played, the drop box was set to rated and so you started your Glicko rating at 1200 with Rating Dispersion of 350. The other "unrated" fellas choose unrated always.
Everyone starts at 1200, it just displays as unrated until they have played the required amount of games (don't remember how many).
Hey Scottrf. Are you sure? I don't think so. Chess.com uses the Glicko system which takes care of new rating by assesing a large rating dispersion (RD). I guess you may be confussing with USCF regulations which indeed it does what you say, after 24 games you get your fisrt rating. Maybe the English chess federation is different but anyways that is what I know. Cheers.
Yes I am, and the rating needs a starting point whichever system is used.
Here is a game with a friend of mine, she has not played any rated games yet. It is a rated game but her rating shows "Unrated".
I think after just 1 game she get's a rating based on the player she has won/lost against.
Many thanks for your help guys,most appreciated.
I am currently in a tournament and against an unrated player. From viewing his past games and present it is clear he is not ranked at 1200 but much stronger. The rating adjustment for the game however if I lose will be as if I lose to a 1200. ...so not sure i like that much.. nothing time won't correct but it seems to me that in the outcome of his first set of rated games only his rating should change. Not the opponents. If he comes in unrated then my rating should not be rated as such..
But as a new player he will have a high RD, which means that your rating wont change as much as it would against an established 1200 player.
Hey Scottrf, no worries, I just checked and it has me at +2/-12 for the unrated game where a loss to a 1350 at my level is +2/-13 so I see what you mean.
and here I thought I knew everything about this site ;)

Woman in Vt. car crash says husband did itThe Associated Press | March 21,2013BENNINGTON Police say a woman crashed her car in Bennington while texting and then tried to blame the accident on her estranged husband.
Tanya Taylor, 30, pleaded not guilty to a felony count of impeding a public office and misdemeanor counts of false information to a police officer. She also pleaded not guilty to careless or negligent operation of a vehicle and leaving the scene of a crash with property damage.
Police responded to the crash Feb. 25. The car had a shattered windshield, tire damage, and the shape of what appeared to be a yellow highway sign on the hood. Taylor said her estranged husband had vandalized her car after the two argued.
She eventually said she crashed the car into a sign.MORE IN This Just InEmployee charged

A story of modern slavery in Utah
Thais tricked, trapped and imported here to be slaves
"Pranee, who was our liaison at the office (a Global Horizons manager who spoke Thai) told us that we should not wander out like that. We said why not, we are here legally and have freedom. Pranee said, 'Well, the police are prejudiced, and when they see Asians, they like to cause problems,' " Bon said.
In Delta and Beaver, there were not enough beds available for all of them. Some plumbing was blocked up, and the company went weeks without fixing it. Workers were told not to complain or they would be sent home.
The Thais say they could have put up with all of that — until their pay was extremely delayed and then stopped altogether. (Circle Four and Delta Eggs paid Global Horizons, which was supposed to pay the workers.)
Chan says they would call Global Horizons and ask what was happening and would be scolded.
"Pranee scolded us and would even say, 'Why do you need money right now?' We explained that we needed to send money to our family. She said, 'Well, you should be sympathetic toward the company and look at the big picture. We are having some problems and need to get together.' "
Back in Thailand, some families were being pursued for nonpayment on loans.
Utah Legal Services and the Thai Community Development Center later hired a Thai graduate student to interview people in Thailand about what such times were like.
His report quotes an 82-year-old man saying that he had used his farm as collateral to help a son obtain loans for a recruitment fee. When money stopped coming from America, the 82-year-old soon found a loan shark "with his lawyer measuring our land. We owed (him) 460,000 baht ($14,000 U.S.)."
The wife of another worker found that a blank paper that her husband had signed was used as a contract for a visa renewal fee for 270,000 baht ($8,181 U.S.) plus 3 percent interest. She said a lawyer called "threatening to take away our land and home if we do not pay" that amount.
Eventually, Chan and Tin say they went seven weeks without pay from Global Horizons. Some of their fellow workers had sent all their money to Thailand amid the crisis and had no money left to buy food. They were becoming desperate.
One man, who had worked previously in Florida, knew of a legal aid service that had helped some migrant workers there. He called to ask if they could help the Thais in Utah. They passed along the name of Alex McBean at Utah Legal Services.
About that time in April 2007, 17 workers finally refused to show up for work — and told Circle Four they had not been paid for up to seven weeks. They also said that Global Horizons claimed it had not paid them because Circle Four had not made its payments to Global Horizons.
Don Butler, spokesman for Murphy Brown, the livestock arm of Smithfield Foods and the parent company of Circle Four, said his company asked Global what was happening. He said Global soon simply informed them that it would no longer be supplying any workers to Circle Four.
Butler said Circle Four did some investigating and found that Global Horizons had earlier lost its labor certifications for Utah and Colorado and could not employ people in those states legally.
Circle Four quickly filed a federal lawsuit against Global Horizons and its chief officer, Mordechai Orian. It claimed Circle Four had paid Global Horizons every week as stipulated in contracts but that Global had not in turn paid the Thais. Circle Four contended the Thais were not its employees but were Global Horizons' workers.
The lawsuit also said that Circle Four had found, to its surprise, that the U.S. Department of Labor in 2006 banned Global Horizons for three years from obtaining H-2A visas because of a variety of violations — even though Global had claimed it had all necessary immigration permission for workers.
Circle Four named 59 Thai laborers in the lawsuit as "interpleaders" so they could explain their situation and help resolve the dispute between the companies. McBean and Utah Legal Services represented most of them and began interviewing them about their stories — finding evidence of human trafficking.

West Street reforestedJune 12,2014West Street
Volunteers planted 76 crab apple trees along West Street Wednesday.
The plantings are part of Green Mountain Powers Rutland Blooms project, which drew volunteers from Berkshire Bank, City of Rutland, Green Mountain Power, NeighborWorks of Western Vermont, Rutland Regional Medical Center, Stafford Technical Center, The Vermont Country Store, Vermont Council of Urban and Community Forestry and Wilk Paving.
The Village Snack Bar also supported the effort.
The trees were purchased with donations from Casellas, GMP, The Vermont Country Store and Rutland Regional Medical Center. They replaced scrub brush and nuisance trees along roughly 1,700 feet of the south side of the street. The site borders a rail siding, the citys winter snow dump and a recycling facility.
Other Rutland Blooms projects funded by donations from local businesses and individuals are being planned through the fall. The Vermont Teddy Bear Company will give a bear dressed as a gardener to the first 10 people to donate at least $250 to Rutland Blooms. Donations will be used to pay for plants, seeds, bulbs and planting materials for use in public community spaces.
Donations may be sent to United Way of Rutland County Rutland Blooms, 6 Church St., Rutland, VT 05701.MORE IN This Just InEmployee charged

Can anyone tell me how to create a cd which when booted from will automatically run a script I choose? I am trying to read the contents of the RAM before the system entirely boots so it must be lightweight too. I can get a light linux distro but how do I add the script to run when booting is done from the cd?
I am working with some old laptops which don't support booting from USB 2.0 hard disks. So i need to boot from a cd.
Any help will be appreciated.

Along with all the hoopla surrounding Lotus' product expansion, the carmaker hasn't forgotten about its most affordable entry, the Elise. While it's still four years off, the Elise will remain a fuel-efficient and affordable option from Lotus.
The 2015 model will still be a two-seat, midengine design and remain relatively lightweight. Judging from Lotus' specifications, the new Elise will weigh in at around 2,400 pounds, 400 pounds heavier than the current model.
The extra weight shouldn't affect gas mileage, though. The 315-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder will feature stop/start technology, which Lotus promises will give the Elise class-leading power and fuel economy. The 2010 Elise achieves 21/27 mpg city/ highway. A hybrid variant will also be available.
Lotus says the new model will cost around $45,000 to $55,000 (excluding inflation), around the current pricing of the 2010 model.
In addition to the Elise, Lotus unveiled the Esprit, Elan (Lotus' upcoming Porsche 911 competitor), Elite and Eterne at the Paris Motor Show. If you just looked at photos of each model, you'd be forgiven if you thought they were all the same. The three we've covered – the Esprit , Elsie and Elite — are arguably the most important for the brand.
You do have to sort of question the carmaker's strategy of showing legit 2015 model year vehicles when we're still looking forward to 2012.

I've placed orders both online and by phone. Customer service and delivery time is always EXCEPTIONAL! My team was happy with the price, style, fit, and durabilty of this cap. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
The OC Diablos 14U Baseball organizaion uses Sport-smart caps exclusively. This hat is the standard hat used by the team The players love the fitted style and think they look great. These cap are durable and holds up well.
is there a way to order traditional fitted baseball hats grey with kelly green bill and knob at the top of the hat?
We don't do custom color orders. Unfortunately grey with kelly isn't a standard color combination. I am sure there are companies out there that will do custom orders but will need a certain minimum quantity and a decent lead time.
Is there wool in the " acrylic wool" hat? If yes, what is the wool/acrylic blend percentage?
Mike, the PFX-400 is a discontinued hat so our colors/sizes are limited. Is there a particular color you are interested in? If so I can check our stock for you. The hat is 10% wool, 86% acrylic and 4% spandex.

Standard 2-wire door lock actuator (Universal)
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
This was not my usual DIY project! I installed these on a 1989 Toyota Xtra-Cab w/o power anything in the doors. This vehicle has wear on the door tumbler locks. My goal was to minimize further wear and provide relative cheap convenience. I have the Code Alarm CA1153 alarm which has built-in relays. I ordered the DA-1 (2 of them) from Crutchfield. Prior to shipment, I received a call from Crutchfield Technical Support to insure that I knew what I was doing and that I was aware that some alarms require external relays (2 per door) for these to function. That is support "before the sale"!!! I didn't need relays with my CA1153. Product arrived and boxes did not contain the instructions, as advertised. No problem...I had previously downloaded them from Crutchfield. Product was high quality (Crutchfield doesn't carry junk). I also had limited room to install the actuators. Not having to mount the external relays simplified my installation. These doors had never been opened up since the vehicle was built. While doing so, I cleaned the tumblers, locks, and window mechanism w/WD40. I then used air compressor to blow out excess WD40. Tumblers were lubricated with graphite. I then used white lithium grease to lubricate the lock and window mechanism. Since no power was in door, I had to drill (Step Drill) and install rubber wire looms which are available on web for under $5 each. I installed shrink tubing over wires to further protect them.
Pros: Convenience Quality product Works well Relays not required if alarm contains internal relays Thank you Crutchfield!
Cons: A lot of research and physical work to install on this particular vehicle, but definitely worth the trouble. Since this is a "Universal" product, the instructions are very generic. Use with different vehicles, different alarms, and different vehicle options make this a complex project. 2nd Unlock Option on CA1153 requires a single external relay to function.

I made Toll House Cookies using this recipe this recipe. They turned out fine, but you could feel the sugar crunching under your teeth (I used half brown, half normal granulated sugar). Next time I want to try for a more chewy texture and I read that this can be achieved by using golden syrup instead of sugar. What is a good ratio for replacing sugar in my recipe? I'm assuming that by adding syrup (= more liquid), I could be throwing off the balance between wet and dry ingredients. Also, should I use powdered sugar instead of granulated. Or maybe I just didn't cream my butter with sugar properly?
If you use golden syrup to make biscuits, they come out harder than they would with sugar, they don't come out chewy.
That's why most recipes for ginger nuts include syrup.
Corn syrup would give you the chewy texture you are seeking.
You answered your own question. You didn't cream the butter/sugar properly. And no, don't use
Also, golden syrup will make your cookies cook faster be aware of it!

Pier Paolo Cito, Associated Press
MILAN, Italy — In the 1990s Italy made a mighty effort to shape up its hidebound economy and qualify for the euro. Then it slacked off — and now it is under pressure to make up for a lost decade's worth of reforms to convince markets it can pay its debts.
The size of its huge debt pile, about 120 percent of annual economic output, is nothing new. The problem is that because of the past two years of market turmoil in Europe, investors are suddenly reconsidering countries' abilities to repay their debt.
And as they take another look at Italy, they don't like what they see — dismally low growth that politicians have so far proved incapable of reviving.
The situation has become critical as investors lose faith in the eurozone's third-largest economy and charge more to lend it money. Italy is too big to be bailed out like Greece, Ireland and Portugal were. A default on its €1.9 trillion ($2.6 trillion) in debt would threaten the euro and the global financial system with collapse.
It didn't have to come to this. Unlike much smaller, bankrupt Greece, Italy has a big, modern and industrialized economy that can actually make things people abroad want to buy — think Fiat, Gucci, Benetton.
Its budget deficit, this year at 4 percent of GDP, is below the eurozone average of 6 percent and it aims to balance government spending by 2013.
But the country still has the world's third-largest debt pile and the worry is that it is no longer productive enough to keep paying it off.
Italy's economy is hampered by high wage costs, low productivity, fat government payrolls, excessive taxes, choking bureaucracy, and an educational system that produces one of the lowest levels of college graduates among rich countries.
Its economic output last year was 1.8 percent smaller than in 2005, adjusted for inflation. The International Monetary Fund projects anemic growth of 0.6 percent this year and 0.3 percent next year.
Economist Tito Michele Boeri, a leading expert on Italy's labor market at Milan's Bocconi University, says the economy underperforms because its restrictive labor laws and sluggish educational system leave large groups of people, particularly the young, languishing without well paid jobs or training that would make them more productive.
"There is a serious problem with the way we use human capital in our country," he said.
Established workers with seniority enjoy strong protections against being laid off and get extensive severance if they do. Meanwhile, new entrants into the labor force face low wages and temporary contracts that mean they can easily be fired. Companies do little to train them, treating them as temporaries.
University education can take years longer than in other countries, with five years of study for a basic credential and several more for professional specialization. Lawyers in Italy must do a two-year apprenticeship, and most firms get free labor out of the trainees, many of whom don't even get expenses reimbursed.
The long education path is a deterrent that means only 20 percent of people between 25 and 34 have a university degree. That leaves Italy 34th of 37 industrialized countries surveyed by the Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation.
One Italian in four under 30 is not in education, employment, or training.
The universities themselves contribute little to the economy. No Italian university made the Times Higher Education list of the world's top 200, and while Italy has prominent scientists and researchers many of them work abroad, where research grants and investment are easier to come by.
A whole list of trades and professions is protected, with entrance restricted and often based on connections: notaries, taxi drivers, pharmacists. The system discourages competition and limits opportunity.

You, you're scared to take a step, afraid to see what's next
So you wait 'til you think it's safe to move
You tend to think too much,
You need to open up your heart to see where He is leading
With a lamp just for your feet, a spotlight just for your path
When He moves, you've got to move, you know
You've got to lose control, let go
There's nothing left to hold on to
This life you live is really not your own
So where He goes you go, you know
He leads and you follow
He moves, you move
He moves, you move
He moves, you move
When He moves, you move
Right now, is all you ever have so forget the past
And don't worry about the future
'Cause He's the Author of your story,
So let Him take you on the journey of your life
Oh, it starts tonight
So if I move to the right, or I move to the left
Move up north, move down south, the east or the west
No matter how far I go, or if I stay right here
If I'm in the middle of Your will, there's nothing left to fear
He moves, you move
He moves, you move
He moves, you move
When He moves, you move
