Did anyone go to MTV.com and watch the aftershow? Maci hosted it instead of Su Chin Pak (lol not sure how its spelled!) But, anyway if you did see it, what did you think? It seemed really awkward for some reason and I can't put my finger on why. Although, one thing that stood out to me is that Maci was smirking when she asked Chelsea about her dog dying. Maybe she doesn't like Chelsea and she thought it was funny..Hmm..
Maci hosts teen mom 2 aftershow
Comments (4)
I just watched. I think she was just really nervous.
Wanted to BF, but couldn't? Join us.
I follow her on Facebook, and although she seems to have been laying low, she seems a lot like an attention ho...jmo. I understand that it is a "Maci Fan Page", but just the way she is presenting herself as of late is kind of rubbing me the wrong way.
Granted, she also went to journalism school, so maybe she now has a job with MTV in that field???
L-Wife to M(07/15/05), Momma to H (10/02/06) & E( 02/20/13)
Maci actually did a good job of being professional. Just the vibe of the way the girls and Maci responded to each other was weird. It was kind of uncomfortable to watch at certain moments. For instance, I felt like Kailyn. almost seemed slightly offended as if Maci was tyring to say she was selfish and thinking of herself, etc..I think Maci's choice of words and repetitiveness might have come across the wrong way when she was interviewing Kailyn.
She is inexperienced, and it shows. Not sure that just because she 'has been there' she can moderate the show, you know?
Can't fault her for trying though.

Children's Health
Children and Heart Disease: What's Wrong With This Picture?
The Childhood Obesity Epidemic continued...
Obesity, in turn, is triggering a host of other heart disease risk factors in children, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol -- considered "adult" health problems until recently. The result? A higher risk of heart disease and stroke at young ages, Kimball says. "We're seeing changes in heart structure and artery structure [in kids] that we normally don't see until well into adulthood," Kimball says.
The cholesterol problem among children and teens has gotten so bad that some doctors are prescribing cholesterol-lowering statins (such as Lipitor) for children, although the practice is controversial. "It's still pretty rare, but it is happening," Kimball says.
Solutions to Childhood Obesity
Experts agree the obvious and urgent starting point is weight loss. Once weight is reduced to a healthy level, some of the other risk factors take care of themselves. And even children with greatly increased heart disease risks might be able to turn things around.
Alex did. She and her doctors decided on gastric bypass surgery -- not a panacea, Kimball emphasizes, but a wise treatment for carefully selected patients. While waiting for the operation, Alex exercised more. Walking was her main form of exercise. She also played golf, biked, and swam when she could. She followed a diet that emphasized plenty of protein but much less fat, and she measured servings so portion sizes were reasonable. She lost about 20 pounds and remained on statin drugs to lower her cholesterol, then had the surgery when she was 15.
Three years later, Alex's weight has decreased, and she is losing more weight by continuing to follow the high-protein, low-fat diet. She is down to 240 pounds and still working at it. Her goal is a BMI below 25 -- considered a healthy level. For her, that's about 143 pounds. And she not only has reduced her risk of having a heart attack or stroke but also has reclaimed her life. "She's an active 19-year-old, in college and working full time. She is an avid golfer now and played softball her senior year of high school. She's keeping up with everyone. She's in a whole new realm of life," Benton says.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye Plan to Bring Newborn on Tour
Sure Kim Kardashian is a first time mom with the spawn of Satan, um, Kanye. Sorry, brain fart. But you'd think she already knew, with Mason around and, you know, having 10,000 siblings, that there's no place like home for a newborn.
However, according to TMZ, KK is planning on bringing baybay Kimye (or, as we're banking on, North West) on tour with her man.

Apparently, Kim felt abandoned when hearing Ye'd be on the road in October to promote his new album and decided her and the child would come along. The touring company spilled the beans on plans to set up cribs and soundproof hotel rooms.
The baby will be three months old when they head out, so Kim will still yet to have slept one full night since the birth. But she'll be there as Kanye rambles onstage about how he's "not a celebrity." While everyone takes his and her and the baby's photos and posts them to the web.

Comments about 'Utah becoming too reliant on accolades, economist warns'

A great insight from ssomeone who has worked in the midst of things for over 30
Utah needs help with education!
Are there any plans besides to factor in fiscal restraint, pay teachers less and increase the size of the classroom thus wringing every last bit out of the education dollars spent.
At the same time the students are presented with less of an education, the scores in math and science pale against those of other countries, and yet Utah continues to excel at mediocrity in these subjects.
So Utah has figured a way to help the students compete in the world......allow the teachers to pack guns at school.
We are the example follow us.

I agree 100%. I get really tired of hearing about the state's rankings
over, and over, and over again from the governor and other politicians. Utah is
doing great overall as a state, but we can improve so much more.
Even if the state were #1 in every imaginable category...who cares? We want to be the best we can be regardless of what other states are doing -- don't measure your success based on the failings of others.

Utah does okay with state management, but the real reason Utah is fine and will
be fine for a long time is that we have a young demographic that is much more in
line with a growing, prosperous country. The US, Europe and most other first
world countries are built on systems of payment that are essentially Ponzi
schemes, spending money today assuming the rising generation will pay it back.
That works when the population base grows, but not when it slows or drops, as it
is now doing in the US and Europe. Utahns have more kids and that growth covers
up a lot of systemic problems.
(And yes, Doug, it means we spend less per pupil on education, but I'm tired of hearing arguments on that front alone...at some point, it isn't the spending that matters, it is the outcomes, and too many people think giving the government more money will magically solve issue, when it won't. Our approach to education is outdated and inefficient. Luckily, many parents here make up the difference, which is why Utah can spend less and get more, though there is plenty of room for improvement.)

I can't think of a single REAL educational reform that can be implemented without increasing spending. A large number of great ideas in education hit a brick wall BECAUSE of Utah's lack of education funding.

Also, lest we get too proud of our achievements, remember what we're being compared to. When you see so many states so badly mismanaged like CA, it's not like it's a shining endorsement of our own capabilities in management to say that we're doing it better. We still have a long way to go in making improvements.

Comic-Con Trailers: The Best of the Best, Ranked
Film, TV
A Vietnamese app developer apparently hacked into numerous iTunes accounts over the holiday weekend to boost the standing of his comics apps in the iTunes store.
Doing scanlators one better, the developer Thuat Nguyen reportedly not only made bootleg versions of Japanese manga such as Dragon Ball and Detective Conan (known in the U.S. as Case Closed), he somehow got into a number of other people's iTunes accounts and bought the apps, driving 40 of them into the top 50 apps listing. While this takes a certain ingenuity, it's a strategy that is unlikely to succeed, as Apple e-mails receipts to iTunes users, and people quickly noticed that something was amiss.
Apple has removed the offending apps from the iTunes store, but the story is not over. MacStories is reporting that other apps have popped up unbidden in people's accounts, and The Next Web says that what appears to be happening is that the apps themselves use in-app purchasing to purchase more apps or, in one case, just send money to the developer. This last post also has some helpful advice — check your account, change your password, consider removing your credit card details. Because this happened on a holiday weekend, Apple has been slow to respond, but hopefully they will step up today and issue some refunds.
This has serious implications for anyone, comics creators included, who wants to make money selling comics through the iTunes store. If people stop trusting Apple with their credit card info and only use gift cards, they will be spending money in finite amounts, rather than a continuous stream, and they are likely to become more conscious of the amount they are spending—better for the consumer, perhaps, but not so good for the seller. And it may make people skittish about in-app purchases as well, unless the problem is swiftly and firmly resolved.
This happens to almost ever store or place you give your credit card. I've been with T-Mobile for over 5 years and they've had credit card numbers stolen twice (if I remember correctly).
Also iTunes has been around a while now and I think this is the first time it's happened? I think the same thing could happen if your comic shop is broken into and someone steals all of the credit card receipts. Which would be worse, because you most likely wouldn't get an email when they make their first purchase.
I think Apple probably does have a problem they are not talking about. I have bought things online for years. This is the first security problem I've ever experienced. I've taken my credit card OFF my iTunes account. And now I'm least bothered about whatz happening with them…

Former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum left the U.S. presidential race on Tuesday, effectively conceding the Republican Party presidential nomination to former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney.
Surrounded by family members, Rick Santorum told reporters in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania that after much discussion and reflection in recent days, he has decided to end his quest for the Republican Party presidential nomination. "And we made a decision over the weekend that while this presidential race for us is over for me and we will suspend our campaign effective today, we are not done fighting," he said.
The frontrunner for the Republican nomination, Mitt Romney, issued a written statement calling Santorum "an able and worthy competitor" and congratulating him on the campaign he ran.

Range DescriptionThis is a widely distributed frog. It is known from coastal southern China in Guangxi and Hainan Provinces, from Great Nicobar Island in India, and from most countries in Southeast Asia including the Philippines. In New Guinea introduced populations are known from the Sorong, Manokwari, Nabire and Jayapura areas of Papua, Indonesia. It has been introduced to Guam, although its breeding status and range in this island are unclear (Christy et al. 2007).

Definitely worthy of attention
For as long as the dvd was available as a consumer product i have wanted this magnificent film, 11 Harrowhouse. I admit to buying a dvd transferred from a video and one from a laserdisc, so when the official dvd arrived i was hoping for the best. The dvd released by Shout is superb. Excellent detail, colour rendition and very light grain. Audio is clear and whilst not a 5.1,dts mix it is just fine.

AbstractElectromagnetic railguns are transitioning from single shot lab guns to a weapon system firing 6-12 rounds per minute. The cables that supply the railgun current from the power supply must also make this transition. In Phase 1, we designed, built, and thermally tested a flexible cooled coaxial cable for this application. In Phase II, we propose to optimize this design between the three competing factors resistive losses/coolant requirements, cable size, and flexibility. The cable system will be designed to deliver the 5-6 mega-amps required by tactical railguns. The cable terminations will be designed to integrate with the limited space allowed at the launcher for these electrical connections. Cable flexibility must accommodate the required range of motion needed for aiming and recoil survival. At the completion of Phase II, we will have validate the prototype design through thermal, repetitive pulsed electromagnetic, and recoil testing to meet the demands of the railgun mission.

Great idea! These gaps in sidewalks leave the city open to lawsuits for non-compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Not that any of these great new condos will have the wheelchair ramps necessary for compliance themselves, thus basically keeping the neighborhoods free of people with disabilities itching to fire up a lawsuit (or get down the street or whatever). I mean, why do something right the first time?
I think Ziggity's got it. A patch of sidewalk in front of one lot on a street is not a sidewalk.
The city needs to step up and fulfill the commitment they made to those of us north of 85th Street when we were annexed, and get us our damned sidewalks! This piece-meal solution will do nothing to address the problems that a full-on city-built honest-to-god sidewalks will.
Oh, joy. Our building codes are finally going to catch up to those of most other states.
Oh, come on, Gitai, you think they have sidewalks everywhere in Mississippi? Why, they'd be grateful just to have MUD in Bangladesh. Sheesh. So greedy.
Why would new condo developments need ramps to be ADA compliant? Condos, like most traditional apartments, are built in stacked configurations, and thus require elevators, making them perfectly accessible to disabled people, so long as they have access at the ground-floor and/or parking levels.
I think we should study this for 20 years, vote for it four times and then have a vote to do nothing at the end.
Forcing new construction to build new sidewalks, especially unconnected ones, is legally tricky in Washington. As a practical matter, this regulation will help, but the city should step up and take responsibility for finishing the sidewalk system.
@5 All I know is that in New Mexico, the backwards, retro, twenty years behind the time state of my birth, developers couldn't build any building without first putting in sidewalks. Any time I drive past a neighborhood without sidewalks in Seattle, I think I'm going to see barefoot children running around wearing nothing but a '87 Minnesota Twins t-shirt.
@9 - you say that like it's a bad thing ...
Sidewalks are basically standard on every arterial street in Las Vegas and most non-arterials, and it always shocked me that an allegedly advanced urbanist metropolis like Seattle did not have this as a de facto practice.
Don't hold your breath. This town can't even install readable street signs.

Sam Zaccaria/Zacharias from Illinois
Does anyone have any information on a Sam Zaccaria from Illinois, possibly Chicago?All I know is that he was probably born in the late 1930s/early 1940s and he had an affair with Bridgette Conroy (nee Martin) in Cook County in 1963, which caused the birth of my mother Kathy (Kathleen).
His last name may also be spelled differently, such as Zacharias or Zaccarias.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you!

Whiplash hotspots revealed: Personal injury claims rocket by almost a fifth in a year despite car accidents FALLING
The number of personal injury claims on Britain's roads last year went up a staggering 18 per cent according to statistics, despite a fall in accidents and car damage claims.
Figures from the annual report by the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries found that UK claim rates in certain hotspots in the North West have overtaken some of the worst areas in litigation-crazy US.
It also showed that the number of car accidents giving rise to third party claims fell 11 per cent between 2010 and 2011. The Institute said that this was largely down to motorists driving less due to high petrol costs and cutting out non-essential journeys.
But despite this, the number of Britons who claim to be suffering from whiplash or other injuries has soared by 18 per cent in the same period. This is the highest rise ever recorded.
Its report also found that payouts are up by an average of nine per cent.
The research also found a direct correlation between where claims management companies operate and where the highest number of claims are made.
The maps below show where the most third party injury claims have been made and where the highest frequency of management firms are located.
Claims: These are the hotspots for third party injury claims
Firms: Hotspots of compensation claim firms
The year-on-year rise in bodily-injury claims is adding about £400million to insurers' costs last year, the report added.
And this means that drivers are seeing their premiums rise. According to the confused.com/Towers Watson Index, premiums have gone up an eye-watering 61 per cent for motorists in just five years.
The whiplash hotspots are where claims firms are
Most bodily injury claims last year came from people in north west England, with this area overtaking the worst regions of the US in terms of the proportion of accidents involving a bodily-injury claim.
Whiplash 'hotspots' include cities such as Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham and parts of East London.
On the flipside, injury claim rates were lowest in Aberdeen, Cambridge, Dorchester, Exeter and Kingston upon Thames, the research found.
Scotland, with a different legal system, remained the region with the least amount of third party claims.
With legislation expected soon affecting the way claims companies do business, the big rise in bodily-injury claims last year may have been 'a last hurrah', David Brown, the chairman of the Institute has said.
He added: 'The increase in costs to insurers because of the rise in bodily-injury claims is likely to result in a rise in motor insurance premiums for drivers.
'The clear correlation between claims management companies' office locations and the 'hotspots' for bodily injury claims suggests that the two are interlinked.
'We expect to see legislation coming soon which will affect the way in which claims management companies do business, which may account for the significant increase seen in 2011. It is possible this is a last hurrah.
'In 2010 the worst areas of the UK overtook the worst areas of the US in terms of the proportion of accidents involving bodily injury. It is disappointing to see this trend not only continue, but worsen in all regions with the exception of Scotland.'
One in three consumers is paying over the odds for car insurance, according to the RAC.
Nearly half of Brits do not bother to seek a number of quotes and one in four renew their car cover instantly, without using the opportunity to save hundreds of pounds.

Actually I am a hardware developer. But doing that, I have to program C++ very other day. So although I am a professional, I am not a professional programmer. weird
Since the last years, I tried to learn more and more C++ and improve my techniques and understanding. And while I am quite good (in comparison to hw developers), I am still a novice in comparison to a professional programmer.

Mario Balotelli gives us the most half-assed breakaway shot in soccer history
I know that every summer when European teams come over to the States to play friendlies against MLS teams, they're not exactly going full-tilt. But they generally give some level of effort to give the American crowds a good show. However, Mario Balotelli – the super-talented 20-year-old Italian forward for Manchester City – does not agree with this logic. No sir, if it's a game against a crappy American MLS team that means absolutely nothing, then that's precisely what he's going to give you in terms of effort, as evidenced by this astounding attempt he gave on a wide open breakaway this weekend against the LA Galaxy.
About the only way that could have been worse would have been if he'd given the crowd the finger in the process.
To the shock of no one, Super Mario got yanked immediately. But if he wants to try that backheel shot again, he should probably learn from Awana Diab of the UAE on how to do it right.

Released: Mar 01st, 2003
Running Time: 112
Director: Michael Lucas
Company: Lucas Entertainment
Distribution Companies: IMD
Cast: Marco Rochelle, Carlos Morales, Brandon Williams, Tom International, Christophe Blanc, Michael Lucas, Jony Kfir, Trent Everett, Diego Alvarez, Tommie, Aaron Heights, Kevin Roberts, Chad Hunt
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Gay and Bi
Stock well - this will easily move.
The fourth installment of this successful series jumps right to the action in the first scene, where we cut right into Aaron Heights servicing Tom International on a patio. It gets even hotter when International spits, spits and spits again on Heights' ass, licking and fingering up his hole into a wet wonderland before fucking it. At one point, Heights rides International, who reaches over and grabs Heights' hard piece, jacking him off while whispering, "Ride my dick!" Add hot kissing and two hot cumshots, and you have everything a winning sex scene should be.
Thankfully, this feature doesn't let up. Chad Hunt and his awe-inspiring dick get sucked by Trent Everett before more well-done ass-licking and fucking take over. A six-man hot tub orgy follows, and Christophe Blanc is the one to watch. Diego Alvarez shows off his puckering ass in his scene with Carlos Morales, while director Michael Lucas fucks Marco Rochelle in the finale. There are also some post-cumshot watersports sequences thrown in after a few scenes.

The Pupil Premium is designed to ensure that funding to tackle disadvantage reaches the pupils who need it most. The funding is allocated to Local Authorities and schools with pupils from Reception to Year 11 who are eligible for free school meals (FSM), are looked after or have parents in the Armed forces
From April 2012 the coverage of the Pupil Premium was widened to include those eligible for FSM at any point in the last 6 years.
From April 2015 the coverage of the Pupil premium was widened to include those who have ever been looked after.
However, in making provision for socially disadvantaged pupils we recognise that not all pupils who receive FSM will be socially disadvantaged. We also recognise that not all pupils who are socially disadvantaged are registered or qualify for FSM. These children will still be supported from our Support Budget.
Total amount allocated to the school for 2015/16 is £34,740
How the money will be spent?
- Intervention groups for the purpose of supporting progress for identified pupil premium children:
Early Literacy Support
Phonics Support
Better Reading Partnership
Reading and Writing support
Maths Boosters
- 1:1 tuition for the purpose of supporting progress for identified pupil premium children
Fisher Family Trust
Precision Teaching
EAL Support
Social Skills
- Teaching Assistant Support
- Access to the extended curriculum – the school offers considerable extended activities including clubs and trips. Pupil premium children are identified and targeted for these activities where funding might before have prohibited access
- Financial support for breakfast club , school uniform and enrichment activities ie music lessons

Shutdown hurt 37,000 immigrant cases
LOS ANGELES -- The federal government shutdown in 2013 delayed more than 37,000 immigration hearings by months or years for immigrants already waiting in lengthy lines to plead for asylum or green cards.
While the country's immigration courts are now running as usual, immigrants who had hoped to have their cases resolved in October so they could travel abroad to see family or get a job have instead had their lives put on hold. Many had already waited years to get hearing dates in the backlogged courts, which determine whether immigrants should be deported or allowed to stay in the country.
Now, some hearings have been pushed into later this year, and thousands more have been shelved until 2015, according to e-mails.
"This is a big task, and not one that will be accomplished quickly, especially given our current staffing shortage," Chief Immigration Judge Brian O'Leary wrote in an Oct. 17 e-mail to immigration judges and court administrators obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request. A day earlier, O'Leary wrote in a separate e-mail to staff that the tally of deferred hearings had surpassed 37,000 and many immigrants probably wouldn't get their cases heard until at least 2015.
The delays triggered by 2013's federal government shutdown that closed national parks and furloughed government workers has further strained an immigration court system already beset with ballooning caseloads, yearslong waits and a shortage of judges. The impact on immigrants has been uneven. Those with strong cases for staying in the U.S. are left in limbo for even longer, while those who face likely deportation have won more time in the United States.
"For some people, it probably was a huge reprieve," said Andres Benach, an immigration attorney in Washington.

We are going to kill our first boss 05/05/2012 at 9:00 am U.S. Central Time.
We will start with the one on Coruscant and work our way up from there. So this is a WB killing spree, not just some random isolated violence.
I will go check if the world boss is alive, if it is there that will be the one we start with. Some of the later ones may require lower leveled characters to be escorted to them, but the upper level toons will escort you to the site.
I will say, if you don't have a speeder Coruscant, Nar Shadda and Taris may be the only planets you have access to (and only if you have already been to those places), but please come for Coruscant at least. There will be punch and cookies served.
The objective is to have fun. There will be no judgment here (except if the main healer and tank don't do their jobs (not worried about the tank)). Come for one WB or come for as many as we have time to do, but have fun. I really want to see the toons of the people I've been talking to in guild chat and watched as they traveling from planet to planet leveling through the story. Let's show the galaxy that the TWC are a force to be reckoned with and have a little fun in the process.
Everyone's welcomed, and you never know you may get some tips that you can use as you level up.
Oh, for those that don't know - I'm going to post this now. We will not have many rules, but the one rule is no one attacks until Lynk gives the order. It will make his and my job easier (our job is to keep the lower level toons alive).

I tend to write long titles.
These would overwhelm the size of the thumbs I'm trying.
Any code hack to limit the length of titles?
I tend to write long titles.
These would overwhelm the size of the thumbs I'm trying.
Any code hack to limit the length of titles?
I went out and found user Alchemyth's help in this thread: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/limit-excerpt-length?replies=11
But I don't really know enough PHP to make it work properly. I know I'm doing something wrong, but am having trouble figuring it out.
So far, from Line 403 of featured-posts-grid.php, I have:
$post_details[$key]['post_title'] = $text;
$text = $val->post_title;
if (strlen($text) > 50) {
$text = substr($text,0,strpos($text,' ',50)); }
else $text = $val->post_title;
$text = $text . ' ...';
-But this doesn't work.
It skips the first of my 5 thumbnails across (only 1 row), and then starts putting the titles of entries 1-4 into images 2-5.
Any code help would be appreciated.
(that bit up there is Alchemyth's trick to limit the length, chop off the last broken word and add an ellipsis, ie: ...)
Thanks for any help!
Ok, for those who want to give this a shot, I figured it out with my non-existant PHP skills.
Ok, so back near 399 of featured-posts-grid.php, after
global $post;
$temp_post = $post;
I just made a function, where I could pass the
$val->post_title and a limit as arguments.
So, it goes:
function limit_chars ($string, $limit) {
if (strlen($string) > $limit) {
$text = substr($string,0,strpos($string,' ',$limit)); }
else $text = $string;
$text = $text . ' ...';
return ($text);
Then in the next block, where it pulls down all the elements of each post it throws, right after the call:
foreach ( $recent_posts as $key=>$val )
I pull up my little character+word-break+... limiter with this:
$post_details[$key]['post_title'] = limit_chars($val->post_title, 45);
-And then let the blocks for excerpt, author, etc. run normally.
Took awhile, but I just tested it now and it seems to run great! ::knock on wood::
So, there you are. If anyone else needs it, it appears to work.

MORA, Sweden -- The United States beat Finland 6-3 Tuesday,
setting up a semifinal against two-time defending champion Canada
at the World Junior Ice Hockey Championship.
Sweden defeated the Czech Republic 5-1 in another quarterfinal and will play Russia in the semis Wednesday.
That game will follow the U.S. versus Canada, a rematch for the Americans following their 6-3 preliminary-round loss last week. Canada finished first in Pool A with a 4-0 mark to earn a bye to the semifinals.
Jack Skille deflected a shot from Erik Johnson on a power play
23 seconds into the third period to give the Americans a 3-2 lead,
but Finland's Oskar Osala tied it a minute later.
The United States then capitalized on three 5-on-3 power plays, starting
with Peter Mueller's winner nearly eight minutes into the period.
Trevor Lewis and Jack Johnson closed the scoring for the Americans.
The Americans led 2-0 after Pat Kane's goal two minutes into the
second period. Finland tied it eight minutes later with goals from
Jesse Joensuu and Osala.
Canada will be the more rested team against the U.S., having not played since Sunday's 3-0 victory over Slovakia in a Group A final.
Still, "they're a pretty dangerous team," Canada defenseman Marc Staal told The Sports Network of Canada. "They have a lot of skilled players and you always have to be on your toes.
"If we play simple and play our game and limit our turnovers against them, that's where we're going to be successful."
In Leksand, Magnus Isaksson opened the scoring for Sweden 1:18
into the game, cutting in front of the net to beat Czech goalie
Ondrej Pavelec.
Alexander Sundstrom -- the son of former Vancouver Canucks and
New Jersey Devils forward Patrik Sundstrom -- then scored from the
slot to make it 2-0. Vladimir Sobotka scored on a power play for
the Czechs 18:27 into the first before Sweden pulled away behind
goals from Linus Omark and Martin Johansson in the second period.
Johansson also made it 5-1, knocking in his own rebound off the
post 13 minutes into the third.
This is the first time since 2001 that Sweden advanced to the semifinal round in the junior worlds. Canada and Russia qualified for
the semifinals by winning their groups.
Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

Couldn't for my life get why I couldn't assign thumbnails to my posts, add tags to custom post types and other mysterious glitches. If i added tags, they we're saved, but killed immediately whenever I tried to edit the post again.
Then I turned off the Visual Editor Custom Buttons, and everything started to work again.
I seems the VECB with its use of custom fields interferes with other metadata somehow.
A pity really, since such a plugin would be really good to have.

SEOUL, Aug. 8 (Yonhap) -- More money lenders in South Korea are closing down their businesses as the country's regulator has imposed a stiffer policy on the industry, data showed Thursday.
The number of money lenders registered with the regulatory office here stood at 9,910 at the end of July, down 9 percent from 10,895 tallied as of end-December last year, according to the Consumer Loan Finance Association.
This is the first time the number of money lenders in business has dropped below the 10,000 mark since the industry advocate group started compiling related data in 2006, it said.
Given that the number of registered money lenders had grown to as many as 18,197 by the end of 2007, the size of the industry has shrunk in half in the last five years, the association said.
The decline in money lenders is largely attributable to the worsening business conditions stemming from stiffer regulatory policies.
The financial regulator pushed for a cut in their upper limit of interest rate in recent years, with the rate now reduced to 39 percent from 44 percent after the parliament passed the revised bill in June 2011.
The regulator has taken such efforts even further to curb their higher interest costs in line with President Park Geun-hye's policy focus on supporting the financially underprivileged.
The National Assembly has put up another bill for a vote, which further cuts the interest rate ceiling down to 20 percent.
An official from the Consumer Loan Finance Association said the association expects more shutdowns to take place in the short term.

9. Wayne Rooney
Diving amongst English footballers is often overlooked, but the very best players have the spotlight on them, regardless of nationality. But Rooney has become somewhat of a repeat offender down the years. When asked if he'd ever taken a dive, he replied "on holiday, yeah". A smart answer maybe, but not entirely accurate. Here's a great dive from Wazza in his natural hair heyday.

The weapon crafting stuff is fun stuff, and the world of Tau Volantis is an exciting place to explore. And even though the story isn't very good, and the co-op seems to have some negative impacts on the single-player experience, I thoroughly enjoyed Dead Space 3. It's not as unique or surprising as Dead Space 1, or as memorable and thrilling as Dead Space 2, but Dead Space 3 is a fun title that is worthy of the Dead Space name. Even though it never comes close to matching the many highs of previous games, Dead Space 3 is still your best bet if you're looking for a quality action-horror experience."

Hi there,
I've got this really strange problem, i've been working on this site for a few weeks now without much of a problem. I'm fairly used to working in WordPress but i've never come across this problem before.
I was working on the site today and i was pulling in the content from the template files into WordPress so that the client has complete control of the whole site.
I've managed to get the markup into wordpress no problem but all of a sudden my footer.php, index.php and contact.php files don't seem to be pulling their all styles from the stylesheet. It appears to be picking and choosing what styles to add and the googlemaps api doesn't seem to be working on contact.php anymore.
What's even stranger is that these .php files haven't been inputed into WordPress at all. They just all of a sudden stopped working.
I'd love to know if anyone has come across this problem before? And if anyone could lend some assistance it would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks,

Swiftkey for Android goes free ahead of iOS 8 app release
Alternative keyboard now free to all with optional themes
SWIFTKEY HAS ANNOUNCED that its alternative keyboard for Android smartphones, which is based around personalised predictive text, will become free to all.
Previously a premium app that offered users a one-month free trial, Swiftkey is now available for free for all Android users. Swiftkey has also confirmed that it's working on an app for iOS 8, which Apple last week revealed will bring support for third-party keyboards for the first time.
The British company's business model has shifted to the freemium market, with a new Swiftkey store available allowing users to add custom themes to their keyboards for a small charge. There are 30 different themes available with more to be added, and the default theme has been updated.
Users who have previously purchased the app won't be dunned, however, but will receive their first 10 themes free of charge in a downloadable premium pack.
Swiftkey co-founder and CEO Jon Reynolds said, "This is the start of an incredibly exciting phase for us as a business. We have made the decision to go free to better enable everyone, everywhere, to use Swiftkey's market-leading technology without payment being a barrier.
"We're focused not only on reaching more users with our powerful technology, but on building great content and features to engage them."
In addition to the themes, the new version of Swiftkey for Android includes a range of features previously seen in beta editions. 800 Emojis have been added to the dictionary and the predictive text can automatically offer an emoji as an option if it sees a suitable one.
A separate number row has also been added, word prediction has been improved and the latest version will support 66 languages.
Swiftkey for Android is available to download from Google Play, and is compatible with all devices running Android 2.2 and above. µ

HourlyLess than 30 hrs/week
Expert Level
Start DateJune 17, 2014
We are seeking an architect or landscape designer/architect to develop a new plan for an existing outdoor area. If your skill set only covers part of this work we would still be interested to hear from you. The current garden has a swimming pool that is not used much but provides an attractive vista to the back garden. We are seeking a plan that would provide:
• an alternative attractive vista and an interesting garden layout.
• A low maintenance and water efficient garden.
• The ability to shade and un-shade the area where the BBQ is stationed. We currently put shade cloth up in summer and remove it in winter to allow the winter sun into the house. We would prefer a system simpler to operate such as adjustable metal blades
• http://stratco.com.au/products/verandahs_patios_carports/types/outback_sunroof/sunroof.asp
Initially we are seeking some concept plans and ideas on how the outdoor living area and garden might be changed. This is highly creative work and we are therefore prepared to pay a higher rate than your normal rate for this initial phase. We envisage having 2 or 3 freelancers for this initial phase and selecting one to work with us to develop a detailed plan. We expect the initial phase might take approximately 8 hours but please outline what process you would undertake and how long you expect is required to develop a concept plan. Please let us know your contract rate for the concept plans and your contract rate for developing the detailed plan (in case we decide to go ahead with a new job of developing detailed plans)
Freelancers with demonstrated experience in this type of work will be highly considered. References and contact details from previous clients would be very useful. Some knowledge of Australian plants would be useful but is not essential as we could employ an Australian plants expert after the garden layout is established. We would expect the successful candidates to interview the two of us to get a better understanding of our wants A good level of English is essential. A detailed Sketchup model of the house and existing outdoor area will be provided -including geolocation to see shading throughout the year. It is not necessary for the freelancer to provide the plans in the Sketchup format but some knowledge of SketchUp is essential to take measurements from the existing backyard. Please let us know in what format you would provide the concept plans to us.
Please submit your interest in the position by Friday night the 20th June.

APEC to world: Kiss my "aspirational" target
Stop the presses!
Asia Pacific countries have agreed [to] a common statement on climate change after intense wrangling between rich and emerging nations, a source involved in the talks said Friday.
The document, which is not binding, contains an "aspirational" target of reducing energy intensity….
Oh, it gets better:
… the statement urges nations to reduce energy intensity by 25 percent by 2030 but does not make an enforceable commitment.
Do they even realize that in just one year, 2006, U.S. energy intensity fell 4% — and energy intensity (energy consumed per dollar of GDP) routinely drops 2% a year in this country, and more in fast-growing countries. If U.S. GDP grew 3% a year for the next 23 years, we could meet that 2030 target even if our energy consumption rose a whopping 75% (and of course, our carbon emissions could rise more than that since this is an energy goal, not a carbon goal).
And it ain't even enforceable.
If John "You cannot be serious!" McEnroe were dead, he'd be turning over in his grave.
5 Responses to APEC to world: Kiss my "aspirational" target
Sadly, this is John Howard's attempt to make Australia (one of two nations not to ratify Kyoto) a world leader on climate change mitigation. It is also done in a vain attempt to bolster his electoral chances in the as yet unannounced but impending election.
He only just acknowledged, say 6 months ago, that climate change was a pressing issue.
Sorry, Mr. Howard, I'm still not voting for you!
Dear CL,
I don't mean to nitpick, but it's important to keep our facts straight given that pretty much the only tool in the denialist toolbox is nitpicking. (You know: to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.) Australia is one of two "first world", or 'leading industrial', nations to not ratify. (Let's see if a denialist can guess which is the other.) Nations like China & India also haven't signed on, but it's still arguable whether they've climbed out of the bowels of the third world into the second — forget about first. As far as 'leading industrial' goes, that opens up the proverbial "can of worms" with which to give the denialists a veritable 'field day'. I should hope your point well taken that two of the foremost nations which ought to be at the forefront providing much needed leadership on this issue aren't even pathetic followers unless, of course, this APEC "document" or "statement" (it appears to not even be an agreement for Satan's sake) fits your definition of "pathetic".
The game of broken telephone (broken wire service?) has led to many news articles reporting an APEC 'target' was a 25% decrease in emissions by 2030, or that the energy intensity is a measure of emissions from economic activity, which of course it is not.
I've been writing about the problem with intensity-based targets for three years (with reference to US and Canadian policies). What's become clear is that the problem is not just that intensity-based targets are likely to be weak of meaningless. The problem is they confuse people and lead to the mistaken conclusion real action has been or is being taken by the countries involved.
The US signed on to Kyoto in 1998. The senate has not ratified it, however.

Bear spotted on U of S campus
SCRANTON - A bear was spotted Friday on the University of Scranton's campus - and it was not another school's mascot.
A campus alert was issued after a medium-size black bear was seen on surveillance video in the Poly-Hi parking lot on Ridge Row on Wednesday and Thursday nights. Scranton police said they had also received calls Friday about bear sightings.
University police are coordinating with the state Game Commission, according to the campus alert.

The Xero Add-on Marketplace
This morning the Xero team released our new Add-on Marketplace.
It has been clear that we needed to solve some new problems as a result of the size of our add-on ecosystem: with over 350 integrated applications, it was difficult for customers and partners to find the specific add-on application they or their client needed.
The new marketplace allows users to search by keyword, category or for industry specific solutions, helping everyone find the right tools for the job. Whether you need a niche application for wineries or you are after a general small business CRM, the new add-on marketplace helps you find what you need.
We're keen to clearly communicate the ratings and reviews that are associated with our Add-on partners, so everyone knows which add-ons work well for different types of situations. You can check the star rating against each listing, but also be sure to click through to the review page to see detailed reviews left by other Xero customers.
This first release is a great start, but we have lots more planned. We want to make it super easy for everyone to find the best application for their needs. If you have any ideas for features you would like to see, please add a comment below.
If you are a developer and your product is not yet in our ecosystem, find out more at the Xero Developer Center.

This is a fantastic move guys. Well done.
Epic – looks awesome. Particularly like the Reviews being prominent 🙂
Couple of comments:
* Wonder if it would be useful to have an option/filter for business/team size? Some Add-ons, particularly in the vertical space, are more targeted to larger businesses and some are more suited for smaller businesses. You could use the users's Xero organisation data to pre-filter suggested add-ons just for them?
* I'm not so keen on the carousel for the Featured add-ons. I think it'd be better off to just see them listed in rows, it's really hard to even notice let alone click to move the carousel.
Yes, that's a good face-lift to the site. But there could have been attention paid to more accurate categorisation of products. What is obviously missing is categories for quoting add-ons and e-marketing add-ons. For instance Constant Contact, listed under CRM is not a CRM and nor do they claim it to be so, it's an e-marketing application.
@Graeme – Yeah, definitely a challenge. I know from experience it's really hard to categorise things like this in a way that makes sense for everyone – different people have different ideas to what various categories mean. I certainly don't envy the Xero team's position to fit 350+ and growing add ons into a handful of categories!!
An interesting idea though could be an option to "Suggest a category" for add-ons you want to see. Perhaps this could be the last category option, that way they can bring in a whole bunch of feedback to better categorise/name the categories, and also feedback to push out to partners in terms of what kinds of categories are missing from having good solutions that people are wanting.
This is so helpful, especially being able to search by industry. I think Xero's ecosystem of Add-Ons is its biggest advantage over other accounting software products. This will only increase the appeal.
So many wonderful add-ons really enhance the Xero experience. It seems Intuit is scrambling to catch up, and of course aren't doing a very good job of it.
I agree with what @Jared says with regards to business team size.
I would also like to add another layer of insight – it would be useful to have pricing. Price is often a pain point for customers.
I just notice "Debtograph" is free – so I can suggest that to customers to give an add-on ago – with no $$ commitment. Once you try an add-on your more likely to give others a red hot go.
But starter price would be useful.
Maybe you could let the Add-on partners choose the category that they feel they are suited to… in this way Xero can simply confirm suitability and does not have to worry about attaching the correct add-on partner in the correct category.
I don't think the "default" search criteria should be set to "Popular" but to "Alphabetical" order… it's the most logical, easiest, common and fairest.
Other category suggestions for Add-on Partners would be (in addition to @Jared and @ Heather's suggestions, that I agree with btw):
– STAR RATING SORT ORDER (the higher the star rating the higher up the list the Add-on ought to be)
– GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION (some businesses simply feel more comfortable using software providers that are nearby even though the software is cloud-based)
– YEARS IN SERVICE (some may disagree but this says a lot about the resilience and the long-term goals of the business)

Ameriprise Must Pay Woman's Estate Over $2M For Broker Fraud
A Financial Industry Arbitration panel says that Ameriprise Financial (AMP) must pay over $2M to the estate of Glenny B. White for losses related to fraud committed by an ex-firm broker. The executor of White's estate claims that Ameriprise Financial Services did not properly supervise former broker Jeffrey Davis.
In 2014, Davis admitted to stealing money from White and other clients. White was his client for almost ten years before she found out in 2013 that he was stealing funds from her. She died at the age of 91 in 2014.
Davis has since been fired from Ameriprise, and FINRA barred him from the brokerage industry. Last year, he was sentenced to over four years in prison after pleading guilty to wire fraud and admitting to stealing almost $200K from clients.
On Finra's BrokerCheck report about Davis, it is noted that in at least two cases involving Ameriprise clients the firm had reported to the regulator that their funds were misappropriated.

Tim Robbins in Voting Snafu
Honestly. You'd think the Board of Elections would have him on a special Do Not Piss Off list by now.
HA. The Board of Elections is so kicking itself right now. Somehow, they managed to get in the way of the inalienable right to vote of one of the like, ten people in New York absolutely certain to completely freak out and make a huge fuss about it: Tim Robbins, who arrived at his polling place this morning to find that his name wasn't on the voter list and was forced to stand around the polling place, growling about "voter intimidation" and generally following the advice that he himself dropped just last week on Bill Maher's HBO show:
Fight in the polling place to vote. It's your right as an American. You have every right to vote if you're registered. And if you're not on the rolls and something went wrong, document it. Video cameras at polls are going to be an effective way to fight this election day.
Or if you are Tim Robbins, talk to a reporter from the Times. "I have the time and luxury to do this," Robbins told the paper. "If this is a systemic thing, what does that mean for the country?" Sigh. Let's just hope that Sean Penn, Bill Maher, Spike Lee, Bette Midler, Barbra Streisand, Charlie Rangel, and Keith Olbermann are all able to sail through without encountering such difficulties. As for the rest of us, if you have had any problems voting today, tell us your story in the comments.

Chinese Activist Chen Dials Congress Seeking Asylum in U.S.
Guangcheng also wants to thank Hillary Clinton.
Blind Chinese activist Chen Guangcheng's fate remains uncertain on Thursday after the self-taught lawyer pleaded by cell phone for his safe passage to the United States. Chen reportedly called into a Capitol Hill hearing from his hospital room in Beijing where he was sent for treatment on Tuesday after the U.S. and China finalized the terms of Chen's release from the U.S. embassy. U.S. officials have been denied access to Chen at the hospital. "I want to come to the U.S. to rest," Chen said over the phone held up by Bob Fu, a Chinese-American rights activist and pastor. "I have not had a rest in ten years. I'm concerned most right now with the safety of my mother and brothers. I really want to know what's going on with them.''
The agreement brokered by the State Department in the days leading up to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's and Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner's arrival in China for the Strategic Economic Dialogue meetings unraveled almost immediately. Reports later emerged that China officials became furious over U.S. "meddling" in the matter. A major Chinese newspaper recently tore into the U.S. for its involvement. Reuters:
"This so-called 'rights defence hero' has been packaged by the United States and Western media and given an eye-catching political label, (and) set up as a representative figure against society and against the system," the paper said of Chen.
"Chen Guangcheng has become a tool and a pawn for American politicians to blacken China," it added.
Chen and his demands for protection, it said, "fully demonstrate just how desperate American politicians are in sparing no effort to cause trouble for Chinese society."
Chen himself suggested at first that he was coerced into the deal, citing threats against his wife and child by Chinese officials that reached him through U.S. officials. But circumstances surrounding Chen's departure from the embassy are in dispute. In any event, Chen feels that he and his family are unsafe in China, and so he wants out.
The Wall Street Journal reported that Assistant Secretary of State Kurt Campbell was negotiating with Chinese officials Thursday. "We need to consult with them further and get a better sense of what they want to do, and together consider their options," said a State Department spokeswoman. The Times notes that if Chen requested asylum in the U.S., he would need a passport and must apply for a visa.
Although Chen reportedly felt wronged by U.S. officials in the wake of his departure from the embassy, he's apparently softened his stance, saying he wasn't bitter towards the embassy. "I feel the work the embassy has done with this business has been not bad," Chen said. "I understand completely that this is something they can't solve on their own."
Meanwhile the matter has become an talking point on the campaign trail, or at least an issue that Mitt Romney will use to hammer the Obama administration. Writes the Times:
Mitt Romney, the presumptive Republican candidate for president, accused the Obama administration of rushing to complete the deal before Mrs. Clinton arrived for the high level meetings and failing "to put in place the kind of verifiable measures that would assure the safety of Mr. Chen and his family."
"If these reports are true," Mr. Romney said as he campaigned in Virginia, "this is a dark day for freedom and it's a day of shame for the Obama administration."
Obama spokesman Jay Carney told reporters that the president wasn't concerned with political back-and-forth on the matter.
"He is focused on the need to advance U.S. interests in our broad-based relationship with China, very important economic, diplomatic relationships with China," Carney said. "He has and will continue to make a priority in that relationship or part of that relationship an open and frank discussion of our concerns about human rights. And that's his focus. It is absolutely in our national interest for us to pursue that kind of broad-based agenda with the Chinese."
And despite all the tension, Chen apparently still has a warm place in his heart for Hillary. Chen reportedly said he wanted to kiss her and accompany on her flight home to the U.S. "I hope I can get more help from her," Chen said. "Also, I want to thank her face-to-face."
