It has essentially a 1300 sq ft ranch style house on the 2nd floor which he rents out and the building has a large garage and the gym itself was pretty big.
I do not know if he's going to open his gym up again or not, he still owns both buildings but he's been winding down with his businesses for some time now. Over the past 5-7 years he's been selling off a lot of businesses of his, even ones that were making him a lot of money. He sold his one building for over $5 million like 5 years ago and is at the point where if someone should offer him $5 million for another building he'd sell it.
He's now more focussed on relaxing and spending time with family and friends than he is with running the business empire he built.

It seems that the damage reduction curves for armor and resistance gain are not linear, so at some point it'll reach a limit. What is this limit for armor and resistance? How much armor will I need for 95% reduction (just counting armor reduction, not from anything else such as the barbarian/monk passive reduction of 30%). Is it possible to have enough armor for 95% reduction?
There is an upper bound for damage reduction... it's 100%.

"Suicide Squad" B-Roll Footage Reveals Harley Quinn's Classic Jester Costume
Film, Comic Books
We continue a MONTH of I Saw It Advertised One Day! Each day this January you'll get a piece looking at advertisements in comic books over the decades that amused me for whatever reason. In each installment, we'll take a look at three ads!
Here is an archive of all installments of this feature.
Man, it's one thing to try to advantage of kids for a few bucks, but trying to get over on servicemen?
I am almost certain that nothing radioactive was used in making these glow-in-the-dark neckties from 1944, but I have decided to pretend that they were using radium to make them glow.
And the timing is close enough for my pretending to be realistic!
I love the idea of some kid out there thinking that Arak was, like, the biggest character DC had in the 1980s.
"What do you mean, his comic got canceled a year after this ad and only lasted for four years total?!?! I have his action figure!!!"
That's all for this installment! If you can think of some goofy comic book ads you'd like to see me feature here, drop me a line at firstname.lastname@example.com. Do not make suggestions in the comment section, so that they can still be a surprise for future readers! In fact, I think I'll just delete comments that contain future suggestions.
I don't know, The Warlord is clearly the center of that ad & with the biggest logo.
What gets me is the inclusion of Hercules from Hercules Unbound, which ran 12 issues from 1975 to 1977.
My parents gave me the Warlord and Hercules figures when I was a kid, thinking they were part of the Masters of the Universe line. They were much more durable than the He-Man toys, though. Would've loved to have gotten an Arak figure.
I had the Arak figure. What do you mean he wasn't one of DC's biggest characters?
I think I remember seeing that ad and just being confused. What confused me more during those years were the ads featuring a really poorly drawn Vampirella. I had no idea who that was either, so she was just another Arak to me. See, if you draw a vampire in a bikini outfit badly enough, it just seems like a silly idea …
I had a Warlord figure…but I think it was from a toyline in the 80's. I had no idea who he was at the time, I just wanted a toy and he had a sword and a winged helmet and looked like a badass old guy.
i remember the ad for those figures. though do not remember arak at all. those neck ties. odds are no one was crazy enough to buy one . same with the rings .
Huh..they actually existed..
I remember getting a Mikola figure one year…a few years after they came out and thinking…"Huh? Where did this piece of crap come from?"
I'm confused, how do we know the diamond rings are a scam? I mean, I think buying expensive jewelry via mail order is an insane risk to take, but do we know for sure it's not real?
Thanks for the link Scavenger. Those things are exactly as derivative as He-Man as I assumed they'd be from the ad.
Brian has assumed (probably rightly) that EVERY mail order ad of questionable-ness (like jewelry through the mail) is a scam. So this one's no different.
I was just reading a comic with a different version of that toy ad. Weren't there some Sgt Rock toys made around that time, too?
Actually, from what other people are saying, they were probably made in response to He Man. And it would have been a cheap license for Remco.
I wonder, would Mego (or someone else) have had the DC superhero toy license until Kenner got it a few years after that with the Super Powers toys (with them squeeze their legs together "powers"), so that's why Remco didn't get the superheroes, or could they only afford these characters (I mean, they are selling them at KMart, y'know)
But any kids who were inspired to dig into the back issue bins by these toys would have discovered three of DC's most beautiful books of the era. Grell, Colon and Simonson: that ain't a bad lineup.
Yeah, honestly, I would have thought Claw or Stalker would have been a bigger deal than Hercules as DC's by-then-defunct fantasy titles go, but maybe that's just because I personally found then more interesting at the time.
Wow, I never realized those Warlord toys were straight up He-Man rip-offs. Not surprising, now that I think about it. Just never crossed my mind before.
They did have Sgt Rock toys out around the same time. They were the same size as the GI Joe and Star Wars action figures. Their articulation was the same as Star Wars figures, despite them obviously trying to cash in on the poplarity of GI Joe. I had 2 or 3 random figures, none of which were actually Sgt Rock if I remember correctly. I usually used them as additional badguys for the Joes to fight.
I would TOTALLY buy a glowing necktie for 98¢! I don't even wear ties, but I would wear that.
And instead of "Cross Swords With Champions!" I would headline that Warlord figures ad "From the Planet Without Shirts!!!" Only one of these guys even seems to have a grasp of the concept of pants! And maybe it's just the way he's standing, or his little white boots, but Deimos (what is that collar attached to?) looks especially diapery. Or maybe it's the BIG GREEN RATTLE he's holding!
Am I the only one who is shocked these comic publishers had no qualms about printing the ridiculous rip-off send-away scam ads in their books? I would think parents would be sending complaint letters when little Jimmy's sell-your-own-salve-kit showed up in the mail.
I had a problem with a big back issue seller in the 80's screwing me on an order I placed from a Marvel comic. Mom wrote a letter to Marvel and and they sent me the entire month run of comics, a hardbound book. Maybe they wised up a little over time. BTW, don' ask I don't know what I did with the letter.
Oh and I also had Warlord and Deimos figures
Thanks Scavenger. I so wanted a Warlord figure. Still do, it looks fantastic!
Actually, the Jewelry ad was probably less a scam, than a price rip-off (you clould get better for less at a local store).
A lot of comics did end up in the hands of the military as morale-boosters, and that target audience was the one that most of the adult-aimed ads were targeting (and probably a lot of those BB gun ads).
Actually, the Jewelry ad was probably less a scam, than a price rip-off (you clould get better for less at a local store).
Right, that's what I meant by scam.
Try to trick servicemen into spending too much money on overpriced jewelry (and going even further, perhaps getting them to spend more than they even had by stressing that servicemen have instant credit).
Right, that's what I meant by scam.
Try to trick servicemen into spending too much money on overpriced jewelry (and going even further, perhaps getting them to spend more than they even had by stressing that servicemen have instant credit).
Ohhhh, okay. Yeah, I could see that. I thought you were implying outright fraud, like fake jewelry.
You should put the Stridex "Zit Fighters From Outer Space" ads on here. i don't know how many they made but i know one of them was on the back cover of Spider-Man 2099 issue 8 from June 1993.
Try to trick servicemen into spending too much money on overpriced jewelry (and going even further, perhaps getting them to spend more than they even had by stressing that servicemen have instant credit).
I was an active duty soldier in the US Army from 2003 – 2007, and let me tell you, I saw a thousand and one examples of schemes designed specifically to take advantage of service men and women, especially the younger ones.
I went into the service later than most – I was a 27 years old college graduate who had just spent 5 years working in Manhattan. Most of the kids around me, though, were in their late teens or very early twenties, had never been on their own before, and most had never really spent any significant time away from their small (to me) home towns…. most of them were not too savvy. A lot of unscruplious people make their entire living on the fact that these kids are easy targets for scams.
Yeah, that's exactly what I figured, Joe, which is why I find this ad a lot more sleazy than an ad designed to scam a little kid out of a couple of bucks.
There are much earlier examples of the "rings for servicemen" ads. I have one issue of a DC war comic from circa 1969 with one that appeared to be a special insert. IIRC, it was printed on glossy cover stock and bound in the middle of the comic.
I'd never seen that before or since, which makes me wonder if they were added at the printer or distributor, but only for comics destined for military PX stores and the like? Or, alternatively, only in the war comics, but not Superman or whatever.
The jewelry ads were created by a company called Mark Jewelers and were indeed, as mentioned above, inserted in comics directed to military bases both domestically and abroad. Back in the early 90's, I worked for a local news distributor and asked the boss, who'd been in the business since the early 60's, about those ads. He said that they received a certain number of copies of those comics to distribute exclusively to the local AFB and NB exchanges. He said that it was treated as a completely different title each week and knowing that I was into comics, suggested to me that those copies would probably be a lot more valuable since they were more rare.

Alzheimer's group working to boost local services, support
Published: Monday, April 16, 2007 at 8:18 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, April 16, 2007 at 10:27 a.m.
HOUMA -- If Alzheimers disease has not yet affected you, it will, say leaders with the Alzheimers Association, a national organization dedicated to finding ways to prevent, treat and cure the condition.
Ways to maintain your brain
Take brain health to heart. Take steps to prevent heart disease, high-blood pressure, diabetes and stroke, all of which can increase risk for Alzheimers.
Your numbers count. Keep your body weight, blood pressure, cholesterol and blood-sugar levels within recommended ranges.
Feed your brain. Eat less fat and more antioxidant-rich foods.
Work your body. Exercise keeps the blood flowing and may encourage new brain cells.
Jog your mind. Keeping your brain active increases its vitality and builds reserves of brain cells and connections. Read, write, play games, learn new things and do crossword puzzles.
Connect with others. Leisure activities that combine physical, mental and social elements may be the best for preventing dementia. Volunteer, be social, join a club or take a class.
Protect your brain. Use car seat belts, wear a helmet while inline skating or biking, and make other moves to protect against head injuries.
Use your head. Avoid unhealthy habits like smoking, excessive drinking or using illegal drugs.

"Soon, Alzheimers disease will touch everyone in this country in some form or another," said Dr. Samuel Gandy, chair of the Alzheimers Associations Medical and Scientific Advisory Council, in a news release from the association.
As Alzheimers claims a growing number of victims, the associations Louisiana chapter is boosting efforts to help locals care for patients or family members diagnosed with the disease.
"I know we need more services down there," said Tammy Reardon, director of the Lafayette Regional Center for the Alzheimers Association of Louisiana, which is currently guiding work in the Houma-Thibodaux area.
Alzheimers, a form of dementia, is a brain disease that affects memory, thinking and behavior. The condition, not a normal part of aging, worsens with time. More than 5 million people in the United States are now living with the disease, according to a report released by Alzheimers Association last month. With 78 million Baby Boomers beginning to turn 60 last year, the increase is expected to quicken.
In Louisiana, 15 percent to 17 percent of the population suffers from Alzheimers disease, and that proportion holds true in most individual parishes, Reardon said.
The Louisiana chapter of the Alzheimers Association in January began forming its first Houma-based advisory council to represent Terrebonne, Lafourche and St. Mary parishes at the state level. The regional advisory council so far includes eight members, mostly from Terrebonne, but the association aims to expand the council to 15 members, with some from the other two parishes.
"Its going to affect all of us eventually," said Earl Eues of Houma, who sits on the new council. "Its something the public needs to be aware of."
Eues said he has no family with Alzheimers disease but hears about the struggles from those who do. Eues said it can be tough for locals to find the resources they need, but the group aims to change that.
The Alzheimers Association of Louisiana has long been involved in an Alzheimers support group in Houma but plans to revitalize the group to offer more education, including more regular guest speakers discussing new research and developments, Reardon said.
In March, the association staged its first mini-conference in Houma, an educational event aimed at helping family members and medical workers learn how to care for people with Alzheimers. Mini-conferences include tips for communication, activities and safety, such as how to prepare an Alzheimers patient for hurricane evacuation. The group plans to hold a similar conference in Houma in August, and further in the future, could begin offering continuing-education credits for local health-care workers who participate.
"Its very important for caregivers to know more about the disease," Reardon said.
A lack of education allows misconceptions about the disease to stick, such as the myth that flu shots or artificial sweeteners can lead to Alzheimers. Many do not realize that Alzheimers is fatal, rating as the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, according to the Alzheimers Association.
"We want to become an educational source for the people of this area and get some services here," Eues said.
The Alzheimers Association also started training Terrebonne Parish sheriffs officers on how to interact with Alzheimers patients and plans to extend training to officers in Lafourche and St. Mary, Reardon said.
Establishing a local Alzheimers respite-care program is one of the groups priorities. Respite care, or adult day programs, usually offers four or five hours of activities, socialization, a meal and other entertainment for Alzheimers patients. This gives family members a rare chance to run errands, see the doctor or visit with friends.
Such programs offer relief for families who can be taxed emotionally, physically and mentally from caregivers, said Reardon, who spent years caring for her grandmother who has Alzheimers.
"The disease doesnt affect just the patient; it affects the entire family," she said.
Eues said friends with Alzheimers patients in their families often mention a "36-hour day," explaining that caring for someone with Alzheimers requires a great dedication of time and energy.
The new local council hopes to ease some of that burden, with the help of community members, Eues said.
"The community in Houma really opens up its arms to groups like this," he said, such as cancer and heart groups. "We hope that they take us in like they do all the other ones. I know they will."
For information on local Alzheimers activities, call (337) 291-1077 or e-mail email@example.com. For help with finding resources and programs for Alzheimers, or just someone to listen, call the Alzheimers Association help line at (800) 272-3900.

After the version jump from 1.3 to 1.5, I am getting a bit confused as to where current nightlies are at, or rather, where WP is heading for the next stable release, which is currently still at 1.2.2.
I read the stuff about not being able to give a full feature list or roadmap for the next stable version, because things where changing so fast. But surely someone must have an idea about what the next WP is going to include or exclude. I mean exclusion as a positive thing to counter feature bloat - after all there are always plug-ins. A good plug-in API is probably a better feature than most hardwired features you could add.
I read, that the version jump from 1.3 to 1.5 was done because so much of the code was rewritten. Wouldn't it have been better to fork the code and start a WPII, since now 1.5 is so far removed from the original 1.2?
While WP 1.5 is already collecting prizes, which suggests it's nearing completion, there is no release candidate or beta version, instead there's news that a team of four (forgot the names) is going to totally redesign the backend admin-panel. Nice to hear, but now I wonder is this still for 1.5 or are they already thinking about 2.x.
Basically I just want to know, when is the next stable release expected and what will it have under it's bonnet.

The Internet conjured up an interesting, but apparently completely incorrect, rumor that Tina Fey would star in and produce a sequel to the 1993 supernatural comedy Hocus Pocus. But Deadline has stepped in to correct those reports, clarifying that the 30 Rock co-creator is working on a witch-themed production for Disney, but it's not a sequel. The tone is described as similar to that of Ghostbusters.
Directed by Kenny Ortega (Newsies, High School Musical), Hocus Pocus was a horror comedy that starred Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy as a trio of witches who accidentally get brought back to life in modern times on Halloween night. From there it's up to three kids and a cat to save the day.
At this point, according to Deadline, no Hocus Pocus sequel is in the works.

"Hanoi - Bustling, historic capital of Vietnam" Hanoi by Willettsworld
Hanoi Travel Guide: 2,854 reviews and 6,330 photos
Hanoi, one of the most beautiful of the colonial Indochinese cities, is often the start or end point of a trip to Vietnam, and what a great welcome or farewell it is. Oozing with charm, Hanoi has gone through wholesale changes since Vietnam swung open its doors to tourism, but it remains true to its essential personality and is an amazing city to experience. From the early hours until late at night, the fig-tree shaded streets swarm with careening motorbikes, often with four, five or even six people aboard.
With a history of 1,000 years, until 1802, it was the most important political centre of Vietnam. It was eclipsed by Hue during the Nguyen Dynasty as the capital of Vietnam, but Hanoi served as the capital of French Indochina from 1902 to 1954. From 1954 to 1976, it was the capital of North Vietnam before becoming the capital of the reunified Vietnam you see today.
While the city is developing a bit of a sprawl, Hanoi's centre can be split into three main areas, all of which are within walking distance of one another.
The Old Quarter remains the most popular, interesting and inexpensive part of Hanoi to stay in and was where I stayed. Wedged to the north of Hoan Kiem Lake, the area is characterised by a twisting mess of narrow roads and alleys, lots of attractive old buildings, interesting street scenes and plenty of noise. There's a few sights worth visiting here but it definitely warrants a visit if you're not staying in the area.
To the south of the lake is the French Quarter, home to Central Hanoi's poshest hotels, as well as the Opera House. Here you'll also find Hanoi's ritziest restaurants and clubs, as well as the Museum of History and the Museum of the Revolution. It's a good place for a visit even if you're not staying here - it's much better laid-out, with broad, tree-lined boulevards and, compared to the rest of Hanoi, moderate street traffic.
The western part of the city is home to the West Lake, the Citadel, the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum Complex and a bunch of museums.
I stayed in Hanoi for a few days before heading on a tour to Halong Bay and Cat Ba Island and then returning to Hanoi in order to take in Tet (Vietnamese lunar new year celebrations). I then went on another tour to Sapa in order to do some trekking and visit some of Vietnams ethnic minorities. Hanoi has plenty of places to visit and is a little crazy in terms of traffic (especially in the Old Quarter) and was surprisingly cold in January, so bring along some warm clothing if you're coming this time of year.

This question already has an answer here:
I read in many places saying while override
equals method in java, should override
hashCode method too, otherwise it is
violating the contract.
But so far I haven't face any problem if I override only equals method but not hashCode method.
What is the contract? and why I am not facing any problem when I am violating contract? In which case I will face problem if I haven't override the hashCode method?

Yankees Sign Pitcher Kevin Millwood to Minor-League Contract
The New York Yankees signed free agent pitcher Kevin Millwood to a minor-league contract.
The 36-year-old right-hander will join the team when he passes a mandatory physical, the team said in a press release. Millwood has compiled a record of 159-137 during his 14-year career with five teams.
The Yankees are returning three starting pitchers from last season -- CC Sabathia, A.J. Burnett and Phil Hughes. Sergio Mitre, who made three starts for the team last season, was traded today for Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Chris Dickerson.
Millwood joins Ivan Nova, Freddy Garcia and Bartolo Colon as starting pitchers competing for a spot in the five-man rotation. Millwood has made at least 30 starts in five of the last six years and pitched at least 190 innings in eight different seasons. He won more than 15 games four times in his career, 1998, 1999 and 2002 with the Atlanta Braves and in 2006 with the Texas Rangers.
Millwood was 4-16 with a 5.10 earned-run average in 31 starts with the Baltimore Orioles last season.

I know this is kind of a newbish question, but I am trying to implement drop down menus with links to different pages to my navigation image buttons. Would there be an easy way to do with without all the fancy CSS or Java Script. Could there be a plugin out there that you simply apply to these images and it creates a drop down for each image?
If there really isn't an easy solution could someone provide me with proper instructions on how to do this?
My website is http://www.managersareheroes.com/
The buttons I am talking about the the big red ones. Hard to miss. ;)

DEAR ABBY: I took care of my husband for 10 years before his death from early-onset Alzheimerĺs. I am in a relationship now, and Iĺm finding that a widowĺs status is far different than that of a wife.
Not long ago, I was invited to a friendĺs daughterĺs wedding. When I asked if I could bring ôSam,ö I was told, ôNo, we donĺt know him and there are a lot of other people we would like to invite.ö I got the same response from my first cousin when I asked if I could bring Sam to her sonĺs wedding: ôNo, we donĺt have room for him and we donĺt know him.ö
Abby, Sam and I are a couple; he is not a casual boyfriend. Surely, if we were married he would be invited. Please tell me what is proper when inviting a widow to a wedding or other event. I find the responses I received from my friend and relative to be insensitive and hurtful. Ś WIDOW STANDS ALONE
DEAR WIDOW: It is considered a breach of etiquette to ask to bring a guest to an expensive event like a wedding if only you have been invited. If that option were open, your invitation would have been addressed to ôMary Smith, and guest.ö
Itĺs likely that money constraints dictated the guest list be limited at both of these weddings. If this happens again, it is up to you to decide whether witnessing the event is more important than your discomfort. Some people would skip the reception because sitting around listening to music and watching couples having a great time on the dance floor is too depressing.
DEAR ABBY: I doubt this will be answered, but I am desperate. I have been dating this awesome guy for three months. He is really sweet and I feel like itĺs going somewhere.
The problem is, I lied to him. Heĺs well-educated and he continuously encourages me to further my education. He thinks Iĺm a college grad, when in reality, I am three credits short of a diploma. I plan to finish this summer. Should I come clean, or should I let him think what he thinks? Ś GOING SOMEPLACE AND FEELING GUILTY
DEAR FEELING GUILTY: I think youĺd feel better if you cleared the air, and if you do, Iĺm sure he will respect you for having the character to do so. Explain that in your eagerness to impress him you didnĺt mention that youĺre three credits short of graduating, but youĺll have them by autumn. If itĺs a deal-breaker, Iĺd be surprised, but it would mean he wasnĺt the man for you.
DEAR ABBY: Is it tacky to reuse birthday candles? It seems silly to throw away candles that have been used for only a minute or two, but I know some people think itĺs bad etiquette. What do you think? Ś MADELINE IN RIO RANCHO, N.M.
DEAR MADELINE: Most birthday cakes arrive at the table already lit. Some people reuse birthday candles if they havenĺt burned down very far. I donĺt know who told you ôetiquetteö would be breached if you didnĺt use candles right out of the box, but the next time someone says it, you have my permission to reply, ôBetter a cake with used candles than no cake at all.ö
Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Hint: Easy perfect game:
Play an exhibition game with two controllers and defeat
your opponent without them getting a hit or a walk. If the winning
side is using a profile, that profile will be credited with a
perfect game. This is also an easy way to earn tokens.
Hint: Easy tokens:
Go to "Created Players", and make one for
each position. Make sure you set their stats all the way up. Then,
add all of them to the same team (for example, Kansas City because
they are the worst). Save the roster so that you can upload them
whenever desired. Start a franchise with the team you have enhanced.
Simulate the entire season including the World Series for easy
tokens. The amount of tokens you get ranges from 4,500 to 6,000.
If you run out of tokens after unlocking in the skybox, re-upload
the enhanced team and sim another season.

Hint: Easy double play:
When there is a runner on base and the batter pops
up, get under it and press L1. The runner on base will
run before you catch the ball. When you catch it throw the ball
to the base the runner started on for a double play.
jaryd delbonis.
Hint: Signing a created player cheaply:
You can edit any player and their abilities, and just
not the way they look. Sign a minor leaguer that looks the way
you want to the maximum term (seven years) at the lowest amount,
even though they may get upset later in their career. Then, change
their name, abilities, position, etc. This also works for changing
other major league players. For example, you can change Joe Young
on the Giants to Barry Bonds by editing everything except his
appearance. By doing this, you can sign an entire team. Note:
You can only re-negotiate contracts at one year to seven year
contracts at about $1 million each or less, then make them "gods".
Note: You can only re-negotiate contracts at one year; when you
are finding a player to make your own, look for one year contracts.
justin palmer.
Hint: First overall pick:
Start a franchise with a bad team (Pirates, Devil Rays,
etc.). Trade any player that has a 81+ rating. Then, simulate
the season. Hope to finish in last place. After all the playoffs
and awards you will probably get the first to fifth picks in the
jaryd delbonis.
Glitch: Oakland A's roster:
On the Oakland A's default roster, you will notice
that they have Milton Bradley, Antonio Perez and Andre Ethier
on the team. This is incorrect because the Dodgers traded Bradley
and Perez to Oakland in exchange for Ethier. Therefore, all three
players cannot be on the same team.

Sacramento defense attorney Kevin Clymo, who defended local murder suspect Sarah Dutra, the Unabomber and some of the region's other most notorious criminals, died Wednesday evening following extensive back surgery, according to his brother.
Clymo, 58, represented Dutra, who was 21 when she was charged with helping dose her lawyer boss with a lethal dose of horse tranquilizer. The man, Lawrence McNabney, had been missing for five months until his body was found in February 2002, buried in a Clements vineyard.

Hi there,
I upgraded (or tried to) my WP to 3.4.2, and run into a problem that all the plugins weren't compatible and I lost my admin view.
So I renamed all my plugin folders with FTP, and regain my admin access. Now I upgraded all the plugins that WP was able of upgrade and the WP itself (now with success). That was all except my ancient version of Simple Facebook Connect (SFC) with all it's sub-modules. The version was 0,25. It didn't give me a change to upgrade, so I deleted the SFC plugin(s) and reinstalled the newest version (1.5).
Now I have a problem, that at the end of each post and excerpt I have something I think is the ruins of SFC plugin. Namely:
You can see the screenshot in:
So how can I get rid of this partial code? And what should I take into concideration before attempting to insert new Facebook Like buttons into the posts?
All advices are highly appreciated!

how can I prevent the message "No categories" from showing on wp_list_categories?
I'd like nothing to display instead of a message saying there's nothing to display.
how can I prevent the message "No categories" from showing on wp_list_categories?
I'd like nothing to display instead of a message saying there's nothing to display.
any ideas? It's really disrupting.
Delete the template tag from the template or use the echo=0 command to return the result to a variable then if the there are categories display them.
Unfortunately I can't delete it from the template, since there are a lot of categories on the site.
I tried adding echo=0 like this:
but it didn't have any effect. "No categories" still displays.
Unfortunately I can't delete it from the template, since there are a lot of categories on the site.
That is ironic in light of the fact you are returning "No categories".
Oh well, this is what I meant:
$cats = wp_list_categories('title_li&orderby=id&show_count=0&echo=0&exclude=4,6,20');
if (!strpos($cats,'No categories') ){
echo $cats; // or wp_list_categories('orderby=id&show_count=0&echo=1&exclude=4,6,20');
Thank you.
I see what I typed does sound funny. There is only one area with lots of levels of categories and more might come. So I am trying to get navigation that will work with whatever levels of categories a particular area has.
this is actually a really super huge pain.
my additional problem is that I found a way to display the subcategories that works and doesn't break the site. It is not ideal, because when on a post only the great-grandparent categories show in the sidebar. But I'm no longer tearing my hair out on that.
I have tried plugins but they screwed up my site (like no one could see Pages anymore)
so this is what I'm using, but I can't combine the example with it. If you could help me out I would REALLY appreciate it. I get this is all volunteer though.
if (is_category()) {
$this_category = get_category($cat);
$this_category = wp_list_categories('orderby=id&show_count=0&echo=0&exclude=4,6,20&title_li=&depth=2&use_desc_for_title=1&child_of='.$this_category->category_parent."&echo=0"); else
$this_category = wp_list_categories('orderby=id&show_count=0&echo=0&exclude=4,6,20&title_li=&depth=1&use_desc_for_title=1&child_of='.$this_category->cat_ID."&echo=0");
if ($this_category) { ?>
<ul class="leftnav">
<?php echo $this_category; ?>
<?php } ?>
Urgh. Upgraded to 2.8, tried about 6 navigation plugins, tried a tutorial on grabbing the grandparent from page id, like that. Nothing works so I'm back to the above code.
There are only 2 issues:
- doesn't show parent category on a post, only grandparents. I can live with this
- shows "no categories" in an area that isn't as deep as the other areas
I'd like to either get rid of the message OR conditionally hide the category listing in the one slim area.
I'm going to change to a page for that slim area for now, until it expands to more categories. Still seems funny this functionality isn't built into wordpress yet. someday!
I am having the exact same problem and was using the exact same code. Did you ever find a solution? Because I am pulling my hair out over it now!
I have "no categories" showing up in my nav menu...any way to get rid of it!
I'm having exactly the same problem with 2.9.1. Any ideas?
Thank you!
Yep, me too.
New Install of 2.9.2. Selected to make the default uncategorized category excluded from the Menu. (Entered the ID of the uncategorized category to exclude form the category menu (e.g. 2,13,45).)
The Top Nav now has "No categories" listed.
How do I add a Category / Post to the text NO CATEGORIES on the navi?
I solved it with a css trick.
Assuming that we are listing links and the "No categories" message is not a link and assuming that the css class of the UL is .cat_menu
ul.cat_menu li {text-indent:-99999px;}
ul.cat_menu li a, ul.cat_menu li a:visited {text-indent:0px;}
The results is that non links will not show up
Just in case anyone is still looking for a solution to this, there is a simple small addition to your functions file that works perfectly here:

Going Green with Others
Posted By E.B. Boyd On August 19, 2009 @ 5:16 pm In Green Living | No Comments
A couple of years ago, a friend invited me to join a citywide competition to try to reduce residents' gas and electricity usage. We teamed up in groups of five households or more, and for a month, did whatever we could to cut back on our in-home energy consumption. At the end of the month, we submitted our utility bills both for that month and for the same month from the previous year. The teams that had the most year-to-year reductions won.
It was a great idea. How many of us, after all, have wandered over to one of those online carbon footprint calculators with the best of intentions, only to wander away just as quickly once the whole thing got too overwhelming? (Yeah, me. Like, a million times.) But add a social component and suddenly cutting back seemed achievable. I forced myself to make an effort that month, because I knew there were others counting on me. And wouldn't you know it, my energy usage [1] actually went down about 40 percent! A cutback, I'm excited to say, I've mostly maintained since then.
Which is why a new website from the folks at Brighter Planet [2], which launched earlier this month, might have a leg up on other carbon-footprint calculators. Sure, you have to input information about your lifestyle and energy usage. But the site also has a social component. Instead of requiring you to make your solitary way through the calculator, Brighter Planet has created a community where you can share your progress and follow other people's. You can sign up to take on specific carbon-reducing activities from a Brighter Green-provided list—like "Buy in-season fruits and vegetables all week [3]," "Wash eight loads of laundry with cold water this week [4]," and "Share a shower 10 times this month." You get to see who else is committing to that step and log your own success when you've completed it.
The site also lets you share stories, photos, and videos. Plus it's integrated with Facebook, so you could theoretically even use it to create a group of your own and launch your own energy-reduction competition. Because, as committed as well all are, we also know that this whole turning the tide on carbon emissions thing is going to require continued and focused effort. The folks at Brighter Planet might have figured out one way to get more of us to keep moving in that direction. Like training for a marathon or going on a diet, it's always easier—and often downright fun—when you do it with other people.

A "New Dawn," and a New Political Reality
Last week's passage of the gay civil rights bill ushers in a new era in Washington State politics. Read my take on what it means for the major political players, and for further progress on gay rights in this state, here.
Meanwhile, yesterday Tim Eyman announced he will be filing an initiative and a referendum seeking to repeal the gay civil rights bill. (A referendum would require fewer signatures to get on the ballot.)
I sent Eyman an email two days ago with a simple question: "Why are you doing this?"
Still haven't heard back.
It seems to me that he's on dangerous ground here, if he cares at all about his reputation. It's one thing to be known as the man who took on car tabs. It's quite another to be known as the man who appealed to people's fears in order to take away basic protections for a minority group.
That will put him in the company of… Well, read the language in his most recent email, and it's pretty obvious who he's now in the company of:
For weeks, we've been inundated with phone calls, faxes, and emails from supporters appalled at the arrogance of Olympia concerning House Bill 2661. Politicians are deciding based on special interest group pressure and their own reelection calculations. The voters have watched this disgusting display of arrogance and selfishness for weeks. The issue has become hopelessly politicized.
Politicians aren't thinking about what the voters want. Let the voters decide.

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Anaheim Angels second baseman Adam Kennedy and Texas Rangers catcher Gerald Laird got into a scuffle
during batting practice Tuesday, a carry-over from a dispute the
night before.
Laird thought Kennedy intentionally tried to get hit by one of
Ryan Drese's pitches with the bases loaded and two outs in the
second inning of Texas' 6-1 victory Monday night, and said
something to Kennedy when he came up again in the fifth.
"Obviously, it wasn't quite resolved," Angels manager Mike
Scioscia said.
Kennedy was standing behind the batting cage Tuesday and was
approached by Laird as the Angels were concluding batting practice
and the Rangers were finishing their pregame stretching. Moments
later, the two were in a tussle that spilled over to the warning
track between home plate and the first base dugout.
Soon every player from each team was involved in the skirmish,
with players pushing, shoving and grabbing each other before order
was restored approximately four minutes later. It was unclear
whether any punches were thrown.
"I'm surprised. It was stupid, to be honest. But it was fun,
though," Texas outfielder Brian Jordan said.
Kennedy and Laird declined to speak with reporters about the
"I've never seen anything like that before a game," said Eric Young of the AL West-leading Rangers. "I don't think it had
anything to do with the heat of a pennant race. … To me, it's
over with."
Laird, who came off the disabled list last Friday, didn't start
Tuesday because he had played the night before. Kennedy batted
ninth for the Angels.
"I'm in the dugout, not on the field, and I trust our players'
evaluations," Texas manager Buck Showalter said. "It's certainly
something we talked about during the game last night. I guess just
being a more competitive team this year, those things are a
derivative of it."

On November 16, 2011, The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack (the "Company") entered into a Termination Amendment ("Amendment") to The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack Pension Plan ("Plan"). The Amendment serves to (i) reflect the pending termination of the Plan, (ii) add a temporary lump sum benefit that may be elected by certain participants in connection with the termination of the Plan and (iii) make certain other clarifying, conforming and other changes as may be necessary in connection with the termination of the Plan.
The Company expects to satisfy all of its obligations under the Plan, which has been frozen since December 31, 1996, by the end of fiscal 2012. In order to terminate the Plan, in accordance with Internal Revenue Service and Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation requirements, the Company is required to fully fund the Plan on a termination basis and will commit to contribute the additional assets necessary to do so. The amount necessary to do so is not yet known, but is currently estimated to be between $13 and $18 million. Plan participants will not be adversely affected by the Plan termination, but rather will have their benefits either converted into a lump sum cash payment or an annuity contract placed with an insurance carrier.

Monday through Thursday 10:00am to 7:00pm
Friday and Saturday 10:00am to 9:00pm
Sunday 11:00am to 5:00pm
Laila Halaby was born in Beirut, Lebanon, to a Jordanian father and an American mother. She speaks four languages, won a Fulbright scholarship to study folklore in Jordan, and holds a master's degree in Arabic literature. Her first novel, West of the Jordan, won the prestigious PEN Beyond Margins Award. She lives in Tucson, Arizona, with her family.
Best-selling novelist and PEN Award winner Laila Halaby presents readers with her first collection of poetry. Intensely personal and marked with a trenchant wit, these poems form a memoir following Halaby's life as they explore the disorientation of exile, the challenge of navigating two cultures, and the struggle to shape her own creative identity. She shares the pain and confusion of growing up—the need for belonging and the solace of community—with tenderness and fearless candor. Rooted in her Middle Eastern heritage, these poems illuminate the Arab American experience over the last quarter century. Turning away from all that is esoteric and remote in American poetry today, Halaby's lucid and forthright voice speaks to and for a large audience.
Once in a Promised Land is the story of Jassim and Salwa, who left the deserts of their native Jordan for those of Arizona, each chasing mirages of opportunity and freedom. Although the couple live far from Ground Zero, they cannot escape the dust cloud of paranoia settling over the nation. A hydrologist, Jassim believes passionately in his mission to make water accessible to all people, but his work is threatened by an FBI witch hunt for domestic terrorists. A Palestinian now twice displaced, Salwa embraces the American dream. She grapples to put down roots in an unwelcoming climate, becoming pregnant against her husband's wishes.
When Jassim kills a teenage boy in a terrible accident and Salwa becomes hopelessly entangled with a shadowy young American, their tenuous lives in exile and their fragile marriage begin to unravel. Once in a Promised Land is a dramatic and achingly honest look at what it means to straddle cultures, to be viewed with suspicion, and to struggle to find safe haven.
"Set in the early days of post-September 11th America, ONCE IN A PROMISED LAND draws its structure from Arabian folklore and the western fairy tale, turning both inside out to illuminate the mythic search for home and identity, the universal hunger of the soul for the genuine, and the wounding yet redemptive nature of love itself. In this timely and utterly original novel, Laila Halaby has crafted a deeply resonant tale of our tangled and common humanity." --Andre Dubus III, author of House of Sand and Fog
This is a revelatory first novel by a woman who is both an Arab and an American. Through the narratives of four cousins at the brink of maturity, Laila Halaby immerses readers in the lives, friendships, and loves of girls struggling with national, ethnic, and sexual identities.
