Air cargo picture brightens
According to IATA, Asia-Pacific carriers are expected to post a $5.2 billion profit.
IATA is an international trade body, created over 60 years ago by a group of airlines. Today, IATA represents some 230 airlines comprising 93% of scheduled international air traffic.
Transportation in the NewsUPS reports solid Q2 earnings paced by international and B2C growth Despite mixed Q2 results, transportation & logistics deal making prospects look bright STB rolls out proposed reciprocal switching regulations International Air Transport Association Drives New Partnership With Global Forwarders Overnite Transportation Founder J. Harwood Cochrane passes away at 103 More Transportation News
Transportation ResourceLTL Re-engineers Customer Service for the "New Economy" In this special edition, the editors of Logistics Management focus on the elements forcing the current shift in the shipper/carrier dynamic and how one carrier in particular, Saia LTL Freight, has taken a 21st century approach to re-engineer its customer communications to build more open, collaborative relationships with the shipper community.
All Resources
The air cargo industry has made unexpected gains in recent months, but analysts are not predicting that the trend will continue into 2011.
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) revised its 2010 industry outlook and is now projecting a profit of $8.9 billion (up from the $2.5 billion forecast in June). In its first look into 2011, the Association estimates that profitability will drop to $5.3 billion.
"The industry recovery has been stronger and faster than anyone predicted," said Giovanni Bisignani, IATA's Director General and CEO in Geneva. "The $8.9 billion profit that we are projecting will start to recoup the nearly $50 billion lost over the previous decade."
This observation was mirrored in comments made earlier this week at Oracle OpenWorld in San Francisco, where supply chain software developers said 2010 promises to be a better year for everyone in the global logistics industry.
In his address on key trends in logistics, James Taylor, vice president of software applications maker, CSC, noted that a rebound was in order.
And according to IATA, Asia-Pacific carriers are expected to post a $5.2 billion profit.
This is better than the $3 billion recorded during the previous peak in 2007 and double the previously forecasted $2.2 billion. The strong improvement is based on strong market growth and yield gains. Renewed buoyancy in air freight markets has been particularly important for airlines in this region, where it can represent up to 40 percent of revenues. The 23.5 percent improvement in high volume intra-Asia premium traffic reflects another significant trend.
"But a reality check is in order," cautioned Bisignani. "There are lingering doubts about how long this cyclical upturn will last. Even if it is sustainable, the profit margins that we operate on are so razor thin that even increasing profits 3.5 times only generates a 1.6 percent margin. This is below the 2.5 percent margin of the previous cycle peak in 2007 and far below what it would take just to cover our cost of capital."

BYU football: Cougars weigh independence; other sports in WAC
"It all comes as a surprise. I knew they were exploring possibilities, but I didn't think a whole lot about it. I don't know what's going on yet," said Edwards, who guided the Cougars from 1972-2000. "One thing I do know — they're not a bunch of dummies up there (at BYU). I'm sure they've done their due diligence in whatever they decide. I like things status quo. I don't know. But times are different now."
Trevor Matich, who was the center on BYU's 1984 national championship team and is now an ESPN commentator, said he would be thrilled at the prospect of the Cougars going independent.
"If it happens, I'd leap for joy because BYU's built itself to the point that it's a national program that's consistently winning," he said.
Of course, there are pros and cons to going independent.
"The upside is so high and the downside is really risky," Matich said. "The upside is, BYU's a national program. This would allow them to market games to bigger networks, and use BYU-TV, which is huge. Texas is looking at starting its own network. BYU's already got it. BYU would increase its footprint dramatically and potentially increase its cash flow as well, if they can monetize it the right way. BYU's won at least 10 games the past four years, but you can't see them on TV. There's more potential upside, especially with Utah leaving the Pac-10 … you can't afford to be second-fiddle in your own state."
On the downside, BYU, as an independent, would no longer have a conference championship to play for.
"And what if there were four 16-team superconferences created?" Matich said. "That would affect scheduling and make it tough for BYU. It's really complex. There could be some unforeseen complications. And we don't know what the BCS is going to do."
BCS executive director Bill Hancock told ESPN he has spoken to Holmoe about whether the BCS presidents and chancellors would allow BYU automatic qualifying access similar to the deal the BCS has with Notre Dame.
The Fighting Irish become an automatic selection if it wins nine games and is ranked in the top eight in the final standings. Army and Navy do not have that kind of deal.
Hancock said the BCS schools would "thoughtfully consider any request that comes in. Every school is eligible to be considered by a bowl for at-large selection if it is ranked in the top 14."
According to sources, ESPN could partner with BYU to help facilitate this move to independence, particularly with scheduling and broadcasting games.
ESPN spokesman Michael Humes told the Deseret News that "as part of the process described in (BYU's) statement, BYU initiated a discussion with ESPN. The conversation will remain private."

I'm running some windows servers which seem to be getting a lot of attempts to brute force the terminal services account. I've changed the administrator account name etc., but is there a way to block or tarpit multiple attempts to log into a remote or terminal service connection on a windows server?
There is no way to do this built in to Windows as far as I am aware. Your best bet is to change the RDP port to something non-standard (most RDP worms will simply target 3389) and, if possible, restrict RDP connections to VPN clients only.

Good article, but I disagree with the proposition. Coaching changes have always
existed. Student athletes should be using a variety of reasons to choose a
school, not just on who the head coach is. Besides, position coaches are often
more influential in the recruiting process.
The university can included a buyout clause to protect themselves. The penalty for a coach leaving is generally a financial decision which affects the athletic budget.

Coaches should not be able to break their contracts and "Student-Athletes" should be able to transfer. Put all the coaches on a 1 year contract.

While unfettered transfers may, at first blush, seem to be student-athlete
friendly, there are some drawbacks:
Scholarship Darwinism: Schools will still have scholarship limits, so a team may have to take away a player's scholarship to make room for a transferring player--fair to the "bumped" player? Of course the bumped player (who didn't want to transfer) can transfer to a smaller school and take someone else's scholarship. Scholarship Darwinism would be chaos.
Perpetual Recruiting: Unfettered transfers would require open recruiting of scholarship athletes (so they can make an informed decision re whether recruiting is in their best interest). Imagine a world where a UofU wide receiver spends his bye week Saturday attending a UCLA game on a recruiting trip (why not, it's a free trip to LA). The NCAA struggles to police recruiting under the current rules, they'd have no hope of doing so with perpetual recruiting.
Interrupted Academics: Transferring students often can't transfer all their credits. Without the benefit of the sit out year to replace the lost credits, it's likely that an athlete's scholarship will run out before they have the credits needed to graduate.

I can see Robinsons point but also I would hate to see Universities start
recruiting an athlete when they start performing on the field. Or a team has an
injured player so they start looking for a replacement from another team!
The one a done scenario in basketball is bad enough. I don't want to see it in football.

I think I would be okay with the rule change, but I do worry it would create a free agency type market every off-season. There would still need to be a couple of conditions in my mind: First, if a player transfers to a school in the same conference he/she loses a year of eligibility. Second, a player can only transfer once in his/her athletic career.

The other side of the coin with coaches is that they can be fired on a drop of a
hat, no matter what the contract says. College coaching is one of the most
unstable occupations out there. Win or else is the rule!
I agree that kids should be able to transfer eligibility issues in some cases. For example if a kids goes from an FBS to FCS school AND vice versa. Or if that coach leaves.
Nice article, just anxious words put into action by the NCAA.

Give the SA a one-time "get out of jail" card to balance the fact that
what he was sold in recruiting isn't being fulfilled. They should be able
to transfer and play , no sit out year. And, if the head coach leaves, all the
players recruited by him should be able to transfer - and not count against
their "get out of jail" card count.
So many athletes never get to do what they were promised.
If a school wants to let a player play without a sit-out year who has transferred twice , make them give a scholarship credit to the school he came from as a form of compensation.
Kids should be able to play period; coaches don't have to wait to coach...and non-SA students can jump right into full campus involvement without restrictions. The NCAA preaches not treating athletes special in other ways, why constrain them when non-SA students aren't. ?

The "student-athlete" should only be able to transfer if the coach leaves or gets fired. Since so much of a coach's job is recruiting, and we always hear the phrase "he is a great recruiter", then the athlete should be able to follow the coach.

So for all of you who want to have unfettered transfers for athletes when their
coach leaves, if five Florida Gulf Coast College basketball players want to
follow him to USC, you don't have any problem with five USC basketball
players loosing their scholarships to make room for the transfers?
And what if my position coach leaves, since he was the one who really convinced me to enroll in my school, should I be able to follow him to another school without having to sit out a year?

Coaches get "punished" if they leave early. Most have buyout or
payments if they leave early. Yes sometimes the new school pays the fee.
Players get "punished" if they leave early, although National Letters of Intent are a 1 year contract, the players are expected to be there 4 years. They have to sit out a year in most cases.
It seems the system if close to fair. However, life is not fair. College is supposed to get young adults ready for the real world. If i quit my job because I got a new boss, I have to apply for new job, maybe move etc... these are called consequences of my action.

NEW YORK -- While the Buffalo Sabres and their fans would surely disagree, Sunday was a pretty good day for hockey in the good old U.S. of A.
No, it wasn't a good day for the NHL in the USA because the big-market New York Rangers grabbed a 2-1 double-overtime win over the small-market Sabres in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinal.
Actually, the outcome had nothing to do with that.
It was a great day because the wildly entertaining and sometimes controversial game (what is a distinct kicking motion, anyway?) was played on a grand stage at Madison Square Garden and available via national network television at a (day) time that anyone, everyone, could watch.
The NHL rarely has such an opportunity. In this spot, the league needed a good show. The Sabres and Rangers didn't let them down.
Both teams dug in and battled deep into a second overtime. The game featured all the best things about the sport. It had the skill, speed and determination that make hockey, especially playoff hockey, very special.
And, guess what? Nobody hit anybody over the head with a stick. I'm sure that was a big disappointment for the relentless anti-puck crowd. On this day, the league shined. If you were paying attention to the bigger picture, it was a win-win for the league. Of course, not everybody could be expected to see that picture.
"It's hard for me or the guys in this room to appreciate that right now," said Sabres co-captain Chris Drury, still soaked in sweat after the bitter loss. "Stepping back, though, I could see where it helps our game."
Nearly 50 years ago, in a different America, the NFL took a huge leap forward on a gray Sunday afternoon in New York. The NFL championship game between Johnny Unitas' Colts and Frank Gifford's Giants went to overtime, captivating an eager television audience. The game would later be dubbed, "The Greatest Game Ever Played." The NFL never looked back.
Now, I'm not saying this game will have anywhere near that kind of impact. For starters, television is much different today. There are literally hundreds of channels for viewers to skip through. There is a channel for just about every niche. (Has the Dog Walking Channel made it to dish and digital yet?)
But for a league that seemingly has nothing but bad luck when it comes to television, they caught a nice break on Sunday afternoon. They had a great game televised to the most possible viewers. That's the most you -- or Gary Bettman -- could ask for.
"During the national anthem, I was taking it all in," Sabres defenseman Brian Campbell said. "It's a pretty historic building and I was thinking what a privilege it was to play in the game today.
"The crowd was loud. It's the kind of crowd that you really want to silence."
On this afternoon, which started to turn to early evening, the Sabres couldn't quiet the crowd. In fact, the only silence could be found in the visitors' locker room.
Buffalo goalie Ryan Miller, who'd been terrific all afternoon, leaned back stoically in a folding chair. His goalie gear spread in front of him, he wore the blank expression of defeat on his face as he composed himself for a Q&A session with the media hoard.
On the other side of the room, teammates Derek Roy and Drew Stafford sat quietly wondering what else they might have done to change the outcome.
Looking at those Sabres, you might have thought they were the team that was down 2-1, or even 3-0, in this series. In their own quiet way, you could see they were already shifting their focus to the next game.
Down the hall, the mood was different. The Rangers -- desperately needing a win to stay alive in the series -- smiled the winner's smile for the first time in this series.
New York captain Jaromir Jagr, who scored one goal and effectively screened Miller on the winning goal (scored by defenseman Michal Rozsival), talked about staying in the series. When he was done, he looked at goalie Henrik Lundqvist, who was still taking questions from reporters. "You gotta stop some pucks," Jagr said to his goalie with a laugh.
On this afternoon, a very good afternoon for the NHL in the USA, Jagr could take that minute to have a laugh. His Rangers found a slight edge to win a very good hockey game. On Tuesday night, when the teams meet in Game 4, it might well be different. After all, Drury's Sabres didn't pile up 113 points by accident.
If you were watching on Sunday afternoon, the league hopes you'll tune in to see what happens next. If it's as entertaining as Game 3, you won't be disappointed.
Game notes
Sabres centers/co-captains Chris Drury and Daniel Briere each did some good work in the faceoff circle. Drury won 19-of-32 draws, while Briere won 15-of-22 face-offs. ... Rangers fans haven't let the club's successful season stop them from booing defenseman Marek Malik. The 31-year-old Czech really doesn't deserve the nasty treatment from the home folks. Since signing with the club as a free agent in the summer of 2005, Malik has been one of the team's most reliable blueliners. This year, in 69 regular season games, he posted a very strong plus-32 rating. There's no question that he has been guilty of making some costly mistakes -- like his errant pass which led directly to the tying goal in the third period of Game 2. On the whole, though, Malik has been a pretty steady defender for the Rangers. Head coach Tom Renney called the fans reaction to Malik, "disappointing."

Hello everyone,
I have a woking installation of WordPress 3.5.1. I hired a PSD 2 WP service to slice a theme. It works like a charm in their WordPress installation, but when I upload it to my instalation, I get the error "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in index.php" in the last line of the file. I believe it's not a code error in the theme itself, since as I say it works in their WordPress.
To install this theme I've uploaded the theme into /themes directory, their plugins in /plugins directory and their XML database export was successfuly imported into my database.
If I switch themes, it works fine.
There is another error I get as well: Notice: add_custom_background está obsoleto desde la versión 3.4. Utiliza add_theme_support( 'custom-background', $args ) en su lugar. in ......\Blog\wp-includes\functions.php on line 2839
Any suggestions on where to start debugging?
Thanks a lot for your time!

County to review fish, wildlife changes Aug. 11
Island County commissioners will review changes to the fish and wildlife conservation plan at their Aug. 11 regular meeting.
Commissioners took public comment July 21 and 28 and will now incorporate that feedback into changes and clarifications of the document.
At the meeting they plan to set an additional public hearing for Aug. 25.
The county is in the process of updating the Island County Comprehensive Plan and the development regulations that protect fish and wildlife habitat conservation areas.
Proposed changes include adopting new Department of Natural Resources criteria for stream typing, clarifying requirements for riparian buffers, updating criteria designating habitats and species of local importance, and defining the maintenance of agricultural watercourses.
Updated documents will be posted www.islandcounty.net.

Any procedure which will enable the clinician to determine the functional condition of an organ is most desirable. From the investigations of Wohlgemuth,1 Whnhausen2 and Noguchi3 on the quantitative estimation of diastatic activity in the blood, urine and feces, it seemed as though a method had been found which would show changes in the functional state of the pancreas. The results reported by these authors were obtained, not only in experimental pancreatic lesions in animals, but in pancreatic disease in man. Their work led to the present study.
The method employed to estimate diastatic activity was one devised by Wohlgemuth.4 The principle of the method is the conversion of starch into erythrodextrin, as determined by the iodin reaction. Wohlgemuth's modification of his method has been used in our investigation because of the short time in which it can be performed.Varying amounts

A dynamic texture is a spatio-temporal generative model for video, which represents video sequences as observations from a linear dynamical system. This work studies the mixture of dynamic textures, a statistical model for an ensemble of video sequences that is sampled from a finite collection of visual processes, each of which is a dynamic texture. An expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm is derived for learning the parameters of the model, and the model is related to previous works in linear systems, machine learning, time- series clustering, control theory, and computer vision. Through experimentation, it is shown that the mixture of dynamic textures is a suitable representation for both the appearance and dynamics of a variety of visual processes that have traditionally been challenging for computer vision (for example, fire, steam, water, vehicle and pedestrian traffic, and so forth). When compared with state-of-the-art methods in motion segmentation, including both temporal texture methods and traditional representations (for example, optical flow or other localized motion representations), the mixture of dynamic textures achieves superior performance in the problems of clustering and segmenting video of such processes.

Elaine was a fantastic guide and very responsive to the needs of the group. 4 days of great Alpine weather, 2 days of intermittent rain. Do take a world wide charger as you can charge phones/batteries in the huts the whole way round(3 pin Swiss adaptor needed). The outdoor shower at the Panossière has a view of the glacier to die for.

Read more better than anticipated. For some reason, the Yeti did not have us arriving on Sunday evening but instead did not expect us until Monday morning. This was inconsistent with our confirmed plans and would not make any sense since we would have missed the start of the trip. However, they were able to accomodate us without problem. We did have one issue on the trail when we had to abort the day due to severe thunder and lightIng storms. It appears the office did not want to pay for transportation from the reffuge and we had to walk several hours to,a main road to catch a taxi. I think KE can do better then this in contingency plans. None the less, overall it was a great trip and definitely will consider KE for future trips.

SDCC: Marvel: Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends Panel
Comic Books
This is better than that. And his wrestling career. And all six Star Wars movies. Possibly the Mona Lisa; I'll get back to you on that. It's sure better than every comic ever!
That was absolutely terrible. And not terrible in a good, lame, funny way, but terrible in a lame, poorly constructed, unfunny kind of way. Everyone here is dumber for having seen it. I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul.
I was too young when Ultimate Warrior was in his prime so I missed the hype but I've seen some of his backstage promos: they were both awesome and scary.
The guy was out of his mind!
Oh, and the video is pretty cool! Wrestling posts are always welcome in this blog as far as I'm concerned.
Which comic was Ultimate Warrior in, Brad?
"That was absolutely terrible. And not terrible in a good, lame, funny way, but terrible in a lame, poorly constructed, unfunny kind of way. Everyone here is dumber for having seen it. I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul."
Uh, have you ever awarded me points for anything? Am I supposed to be aware of how crippling a blow this is, or did you just make that up right now, or what? Was I winning before in this contest you made up, and now Burgas will leapfrog me? And look, I'm pretty sure that God is as pissed at me as everyone else was for calling Didio that thing I did, so none of what you said has any meaning to me and was a waste of all of our time, since I responded to it. But thanks for sharing! Maybe I can redeem myself with you without trying like I did with T.!
Dude: You're probably better off not knowing, but Warrior had an Image Comic, and here's some people talking about it:
And wrestlecrap, who brought the comic to my attention in the first place, also deserves a link:
Well, that was just terrible.
Are all of us seeing the same video? I thought it was really funny.
You need to have a bit of background about the Warrior (mainly the fact that he was a foaming-at-the-mouth maniac) but beyond that I thought it was amusing.
And if the Warrior had his own comic, why not give Chuck Liddell or Wanderlei Silva one too? Make it a crossover with Superman like the one he had with Muhammad Ali
yeah, that was dumb as shit.
felt sorry for the storm troopers who wound up on the receiving end of the warrior for even animated he is still a nut case. and hopefully we can assume vader put the warrior out of his misery in the end of the video
That was better than every comic ever? A 2 minute cartoon with shit production values about the ultimate warrior fighting that soldiers from starwars is better than anything Howard Chaykin and Dan Clowes have produced? You are a fucking idiot.
I don't remember if I imagined it or not, but I think they once did one of those interviews where Mean Gene had a podium in the arena but kinda off to the side of the ring and talked to a wrestler. So they introduce the Ultimate Warrior, his music plays (and never stops), he runs out like a maniac, destroys the podium, does one of his crazy poses, then runs off.
But part of me thinks that may have been a dream. If it was, it was the same kind of dream that lead to this wonderful video.
Steve: I think Brad may have been using a little something called hyperbole.
Brad, you've obviously never seen Billy Madison. Most of stealthwise's comment is a quote from that movie.
Holy fuck, there are some serious as all hell comic fanboys posting here. Well, Brad it appears you're the Anti-Christ of comics now… or at least the Marilyn Manson of comics. Now excuse me I'm gonna go masturbate all over my Alan Moore comics while cursing your name. That will make me one of the cool comic fans right?
Dude!! Ultimate Warrior! Stormtroopers! This IS better then at least 3 of the Star Wars movies and the Mona Lisa! (why does she smile like that? Is she just taunting me or what?) I laughed out loud and am smarter for having seen this!
Nice to see some idiots took this post way too seriously.
the fact that brad responded to a billy madison quote is fucking hilarious. Dude got pissed and brought up the Didio thing.
I wouldn't say it was terrible but there are better ways to make fun of him, like at least making do the only moves he can; clotheslines and running the ropes back and fourth, I guess thats only one and a half moves. Also the fact that he legally changed him name to "Warrior"
Not so much funny as pointlessly gory, like a bad Robot Chicken skit.
Heh, yeah, Brad, I thought you'd have seen Billy Madison. I didn't really care that much about the video, even though it was fairly lame, but my response was intentional hyperbole tossed in with the Madison quotation. Didn't mean to get your feathers in a ruffle.
Looks like everybody's got a bit too much sand in their vaginas.
I'm the guy who made this flash cartoon.
Glad some of you liked it…. sorry some of you got your panties all in a bunch about it though. Its just a fun quick cartoon. I work for an animation studio and made it in my free time.. because I love old school WWF and star wars ha.
Dude have you seen the one with Warrior having his way with Santa Claus? That was some disturbing crap. Seriously, it's even more bizarre after hearing the warrior is a homophobe.

Lets say purse is $100, the trainer gets 10% off the top or $10.00, the manager if he is getting 33 1/3% gets about $30. the fighter gets $60, the fighter pays taxes on the $60, not the original purse of $100.(gross purse). The bout contract allows the fighter to take the managers and trainers cut from the purse. Make sure you keep your copy of the contract, that shows the deductions were made, this is your protection. If the fighter says he wants the full purse, he then is responsible for paying the full purse amount and he has to send out a 1099 form for each person the fighter paid, the manager, the trainer at tax time. It's best to get the deductions taken out.

N.J. Police Investigating Why Cop Punched Woman in the Face
It's on video.
The omnipresence of cell-phone video assures that messy incidents like this one, in which a police officer attempting to break up a fight outside of a New Jersey nightclub reaches back and punches a woman directly in the face, are documented and appropriately probed. But while the department is looking into it, it's also worth considering the ubiquity of the "Wooorldstaaar!!!" tag in recent Internet fight videos, shouted without fail by the camera-person or a random observer in reference to the website whose founder told this magazine that he hopes to depict "the whole gamut; A-to-Z; soup-to-nuts; the good, the bad, and the ugly of the urban experience." See for yourself, if you can stomach it.

ARLINGTON — Yu Darvish visited Texas for the first time during a 30-day window the AL champion Rangers have to negotiate a contract with the Japanese pitcher.
Rangers general manager Jon Daniels wouldn't discuss the negotiations or any plans for meetings during the visit by the 25-year-old right-hander.
The Rangers, who have won consecutive AL pennants, put in a record bid of about $51.7 million for the right to negotiate with Japan's best pitcher. A 30-day negotiating window began when their bid was accepted Dec. 20 by the Hokkaido Nippon Ham Fighters of Japan's Pacific League. They only pay the fee if they sign the player.

This is a response to http://wordpress.org/support/topic/change-the-depth-of-parent-dropdown-list?replies=1, but the Topic was already "closed", so i couldn't just reply to that post. (Why is that, by the way??)
Filter the Parent dropdown (in Admin > Edit page > Page attributes), so it shows ONLY top-level pages. This makes it much easier to find the page you want, assuming your parent-page will always be a top-level page.
function tz_parent_dropdown($dropdown_args){
$dropdown_args['depth'] = 1;
return $dropdown_args;

New London — A man arrested by police here on drugs and weapons early this morning was in possession of a rare Colt single shot pistol that was manufactured between 1920 and 1941.
Irock Z. Hill, 26, of 109 Spring Glen Road, was arrested after police stopped a car he was passenger in and smelled a strong odor of marijuana.
Police said that about 1:30 a.m. they stopped a car in the area of Pearl and Bank streets for equipment and moving violations. It was at point they smelled the marijuana and Hill admitted he had the marijuana and more. Police then found a clear plastic bag and capsules with a white power along with a Colt Camp Perry Special .22 caliber long pistol. Just 2,525 of the target shooting guns were made and they sell for thousands of dollars.
Hill was charged with possession of heroin, possession of heroin with intent to sell, possession of marijuana, carrying a pistol without a permit, having a weapon in a motor vehicle and criminal possession of a firearm. He is being held on a $25,000 bond and is slated to appear in New London Superior Court Tuesday.

I'm looking at the product Aptimize Website Accelerator, which is an ISAPI filter that will concatenate files, minify css/javascript, and more. Does anyone have experience with this product, or any other "all-in-one" solutions?
I'm interesting in knowing whether something like this would be good long-term, or would manually setting up all the components (integrate YUICompress into the build process, setting up gzip compression, tweaking expiration headers, etc...) be more beneficial?
An all-in-one solution like this looks very tempting, as it could save a lot of time if our website is "less than optimal". But how efficient are these products? Would setting up the components manually generate better results? Or would the gap between the all-in-one solution and manually setting up the component be so small, that it's negligible?

While using Toolbar Theme Switcher, I noticed that the wrong background was being displayed when I was previewing a theme.
Since it can be confusing, here is terminology I'll use:
Real theme: Theme actually set in Admin > Appearance > Themes (i.e. Theme that's set without the use of the Toolbar Theme Switcher plugin.)
Previewed theme: Theme selected via Toolbar Theme Switcher
When viewing the previewed theme, get_theme_mod() is returning values for the real theme instead of the previewed theme. I traced the function calls for get_background_image(), and came up with this:
$theme_slug = get_option( 'stylesheet' );
So, the issue is that $theme_slug is being initialized to the value for the real theme.
I used the following code to force WP to use the previewed theme's $theme_name using the pre_option_{option_name} filter:
(I used this pattern, because it seemed like the best way to use this powerful filter.
function tts_force_stylesheet( $option ) {
if ( ! class_exists( 'Toolbar_Theme_Switcher' ) )
return $option;
remove_filter( 'pre_option_stylesheet', 'tts_force_stylesheet' );
// do what you like with $option
$option = Toolbar_Theme_Switcher::$theme_name;
add_filter( 'pre_option_stylesheet', 'tts_force_stylesheet' );
return $option;
add_filter( 'pre_option_stylesheet', 'tts_force_stylesheet' );

There is a lie that this is a growing boom town. I don't know who is behind it or whatever, maybe it's outdated, I don't know. But, almost every negative post on here seems to be on point. I've never seen so much negativity be so right on cue. Every now and then you'll see a business owner or someone retort, but, that's all a crap cover-up. If you like being hungry and living in a hotel/ or miles away from your dead-end job, then this is your boom town indeed. Enjoy the shitty music and hateful people while you waste your life here in this toilet, honestly. Also, don't be alarmed if your child tries crystal meth by the age of 13, it's normal here.

Chris in OK, Hollister was stupid to redo all their freeway entrances as they did. They put all their eggs in one basket, counting on college benefits, when they got rid of their north and south freeway entrances and put a new one in the middle that takes people directly to the college. I have nothing against the excellent CofO. of course, but whoever was behind this boneheaded move sure screwed a few businesses over doing that, and they certainly didn't do anything to encourage more businesses and industries to come to Hollister. They could have truly openend up all of Hollister to the rest of the world, but instead they chose to close off half of it and to close off the old Historical district. And Hollister could have attracted thousands and thousands of people if they had gotten behind the race track initiative that went belly up. I criticize the too low wages in the tourist and hotel industy in Branson, but Branson has opened up more and more of Branson to development at every chance they get, unlike Hollister. If Branson wants to concentrate on tourism and entertainment, fine, let them. That simply gives Hollister the advantage in attracting more business and industry... if they would have a business and industry friendly environement, which they do not. Hollister has a college friendly environment. So, I guess ya get what ya go for!
