Wasn't happy to find the google ads after using the dialog to print. I had to disable this plug-in and find another, as I can't have a client's site providing 3rd party advertising. Would have liked a warning before installing.
You could have just tried it and see the tool in action at http://www.printfriendly.com or via http://www.printfriendly.com/browser_tool.
But you can disable the ads for a premium subscription if you don't like the ads showing up. More information about that is at http://www.printfriendly.com/pro
That preview wasn't obvious from the Plugin page, and I don't want to pay $4 a month for a simple print feature!
There should be a notice of ads in the plug-in description, so people don't have to waste their time installing it before they realize this is a commercial plugin.
Well, a lot of people/publisher, and I mean, a lot of them, do actually pay for this tool because it's possibly the best to strip out all the junk and provide a clean and functional print feature with a user-friendly interface. Since you said you were working for a client's website, perhaps you could let them know about the tool and make them decide whether the money is well spent or the ads can be allowed for the service it offers.
Nothing in the plug-in Description, FAQ or Screenshots mentions the ads. That is deceptive and the reason I give this 1 star.
This is Taylor from PrintFriendly. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. You raise a valid point and we'll make it more clear in the next update.
When we do, would you be willing to change your rating? :)
Yes, of course
I have to go with rchrisbishop's evaluation. I manage content for a church website. We can't use ads. Since there was no notice of ads for the free version, I had to go back and uninstall it. It's a shame, because it's a cool plugin. I know developers put a lot of time into creating these plug-ins. I certainly don't blame you for needing to make a buck. But if you offered a premium version with a one-time price, I'd pay for it out of my own pocket and not charge the church. A subscription is out of the question.
Since it's such an excellent plugin, I didn't rate it. But I wanted to add my opinion for your consideration.
Thanks for the thoughtful feedback. We're updating the description for the next update.
We can work something out for your Church's website. You can reach me directly taylor@printf....

This little plug-in does exactly what it says it does. I was afraid I'd lose it after a long-delayed upgrade to WordPress 3.8, but it seems to be functioning without a hiccup.
This plugin is small, doesn't bog down my websites, and runs great on every version of WordPress! I'm currently running it on three sites on WP 3.5.1 and there are zero issues. Does exactly what it should, flawlessly!

Plans to blow up Glasgow flats for Commonwealth Games abandoned
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Housing
2,000 homes evacuated as Glasgow flats demolished
Plans to demolish five blocks of flats to mark the beginning of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow have been abandoned, following a public outcry.
Organisers had hoped to broadcast the detonation of the Red Road flats to a live global audience to celebrate the games.
However, the plan was met with widespread criticism, with critics claiming that the stunt would be insensitive to the building's former tenants.
After more than 17,000 signed a petition to have the plans scrapped, organisers said that the project was being abandoned for "safety and security" reasons.
In a statement, Games chief executive David Grevemberg said: "We made it clear from the outset the absolute priority was safety and that this event would only happen during the opening ceremony if it was safe to do so.
"Over the past few days it has become clear that opinions have been expressed which change the safety and security context.
"Glasgow 2014, Games partners and key stakeholders, including Police Scotland and Glasgow Housing Association, are not prepared to allow what was proposed to be a positive act of commemoration to create risk for all concerned, including the communities of north east Glasgow."

The Gift of the Magi
by O. Henry
Analysis: What's Up With the Title?
"The Gift of the Magi" is about a young couple who sacrifice everything they have of value to give each other the best Christmas present. And who invented the practice of giving Christmas presents in the first place? The magi, at least according to the Christian tradition. You might also have heard of the magi as the "three kings" (as in the famous Christmas carol, "We Three Kings of Orient Are") or the "three wise men." According to the Christian Bible, the magi were the trio of kings who traveled to Bethlehem from somewhere in the east (probably Persia) to deliver three presents to the baby Jesus.
According to the story, the magi were wise folks. The gifts the magi gave to Jesus must have been wise too (as the narrator of "The Gift of the Magi" suggests at the end of the story). These gifts must have been the smartest, best gifts anyone could have chosen. And according to the narrator, that makes the two characters in this story – Jim and Della – just like the magi: they gave each other the wisest gifts of all.

Well it seems Ancestry.com has spread its wings across the pond to Australia. I was phoned by my bank the other day to be told that someone had signed me up to the 'Those who have been ripped off by Ancestry.com club'. $550 bucks is a pretty steep membership fee, but what can I do.
I think I know what happens with these family tree sites. When you type in your date of birth, surname, mothers maiden name etc. It's enough info for the fraudsters to find out more about you. Warn everyone you know not to go anywhere near these types of sites.
Anyway I spoke with my bank and I have to fill in a few forms but hopefully I can get my money back, at my banks expense which isn't really fair.
What gets me is why is this ancestry.com site still running. It's been operational for the last 5 or 6 years. Do the American authorities even care? Or is it run by the Russians?
Anyway like I said spread the word about these tricksters and have a nice day.

EDitor's Suggestions on how to get your money back!
Go to your bank within 60 days of the charge, or as soon as you know about the charge, don't delay, and tell them that there has been fraudulent activity within your account. Explain that you wish to file a dispute, and demand that they assist you in accordance with Federal Regulation E.
According to the majority of victims interviewed by Rip-off Report, those who immediately called their banks to dispute the charges did not get very far. Many victims got the following responses from their banks: we could not do anything for you or you waited too long; it has been more than 60 days.
If the bank is says that you have waited too long, explain to them how you called their 800 number as soon as the charges were found, and were told by the bank that nothing could be done. Remind the bank that they failed to assist you properly at the 800 #, and instead, provided you with an inadequate explanation of your right to dispute. Tell the bank that it's their fault time has expired, and since they gave you the wrong info to begin with, they will just have to deal with it, take the loss and reverse the charges.
Tell them the truth; this was unauthorized and your account was NOT to be charged! Keep emphasizing how you never authorized anything! Direct them to the hundreds of victims reports that were filed on Rip-off Report.com. And if you're at the bank, walk them over to their computer and make them go to this site! If you are on the phone with them, tell them you will wait while they access this site! Either way, be persistent!
Let them know nicely, that you were advised to Report them (the Bank) and this situation to the Banking Commission in your state. Since each state has a different name for the agency/controller over banks, find that name before you call or get to the bank so you can throw it in their face. The more knowledgeable you appear to be, the further you will get.
And just continue to demand the Federal Regulation E form! The bank CAN, MUST and WILL reverse the charge! But, you must be persistent; ask to speak to the supervisor or the area manager for all the branches in the state.
Let the bank personnel know you are meeting with the media later in the day, that you would much rather they do the right thing (as most other banks have) by looking at the complaints and immediately reversing the charge(s) to your account; no matter how long ago it was. Be sure to call the Media if necessary so you are telling the truth.
If you have to, be loud (but nice) in front of other customers. If you are just calling by phone, the above tactics should still work. The bank can easily fax or mail to you the Federal Regulation E dispute form.
If the charge was to your credit card (not debit card, check card, or checking account), contact the credit card company as soon as possible to request a dispute form. Consumers usually have a little longer to dispute fraudulent credit card charges (up to 6 months), but it is better to act right away. In this type of situation, credit card disputes are usually successful since fraudulent companies often won't contest the disputed charge. In rare cases, credit card companies will review disputes, but refuse to reverse the charges. If this occurs, complain to a manager and let them know you will be filing a report here.
Remember Don't let them get away with it! Make sure they make the Rip-off Report .. The more Reports filed on a Company or individual, the more likely it is that the authorities, media and attorneys will want to take action.
And good luck Let us know how you do!

Give Ancestry.com a call and ask them what happened. They have a department specifically handling fraud like most companies do. Another thing is, a lot of people are upset with Ancestry.com becuase they don't know how a "Free Trial" works.
If a company gives you a free trial and ask for you credit card, guess what, at the end of the trial, 9 times out of ten you will get charged a full subscritpion. Don't get all worked up because a company did what it said it would. If you don't like the way that kind of trial works, DON'T SIGN UP FOR IT.
Another thing, lot's of people don't like the fact that it renews. Why is it that with everything else that is OK, but not this. Your water keeps running until you ask it to be turned off (or you quit paying) just lake your gas and electiricity. Again, this is how they do business. You click a little button that says "I Have Read and Agree to the Terms and COndiditons."
I know almost know one never reads these, but don't get mad when you say you have read them, and agree to them, and then they do what they said they would, like renew your subscription until you ask them to stop.
This is very similar to any other online company, almost all of them bill at the end of a "free" trial (especially when you give a card number to start it) and almost all of them renew at the end of the subscription when you don't ask them to cancel. If you've been billed at the end of your free trial, pony up, cal the company, tell them you don't need it, forgot it would bill, and see if you can get a refund. Don't be a panzy and call it fraud when you agreed to something, gave your credit card, and got billed.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Ancestry.com is legit
SUBMITTED: Sunday, March 12, 2006POSTED: Sunday, March 12, 2006
They enable you to have access to records... especially US Census records online without having to leave your home and travel to an Archives Branch.
I'm not fond of the company retaining credit cards in order to renew your subscription automatically, but if you call them at least two weeks before your subscription expires they WILL cancel your account.
I'm a long standing customer of Ancestry (three years), and receive special discounts, sometimes half of what new subscribers are charged.
500.00 is rather ridiculous however, and I hope you got your money back from the bank.
Ancestry has had a class action suit filed for misrepresenting the yearly vs. the monthly charges, and they have since corrected that practice.
The service is not perfect, but I think paying a reasonable fee to access millions of US Census data from 1790-1930, plus other records is worth it. At least to an avowed genealogy researcher like me.

NHL Diary: Empire State Building Celebrates Win
Welcome to the Morning Skate: Stanley Cup Playoffs Edition, a daily collection of the latest news and notes from around the NHL.
(Home Team in Caps)
NY RANGERS 2, Philadelphia 1 NYR wins series 4-3
Minnesota 5, COLORADO 4 (OT) MIN wins series 4-3
Los Angeles 5, SAN JOSE 1 LA wins series 4-3
The matchups for the Second Round of the 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs have been set:
Eastern Conference:
(1) Boston vs. (3) Montreal
(1) Pittsburgh vs. (2) NY Rangers
Western Conference:
(3) Chicago vs. (WC1) Minnesota
(1) Anaheim vs. (3) Los Angeles
Click herefor the dates, times and national broadcast information for the Second Round.
Trailing 1-0 early in the second period, the Kings scored five unanswered goals, including two into an empty net, to become the fourth team in NHL history to overcome a 3-0 series deficit in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
* The Kings joined the 2010 Flyers (CSF vs. BOS), 1975 Islanders (QF vs. PIT) and 1942 Maple Leafs (F vs. DET) as the only teams to come back from a 3-0 series deficit in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Three of the four teams won Game 7 on the road (TOR the lone exception).
* After being outscored 17-8 in the first three games of the series, the Kings posted an 18-5 goals advantage over the final four contests.
*Jonathan Quickmade 39 saves to improve to 2-0 all-time in Game 7s, with both victories coming against the Sharks (also in 2013 CSF). He compiled a 1.25 goals-against average, .963 save percentage and one shutout in the last four games of the series after recording a 5.78 goals-against average and .852 save percentage in the opening three contests.
*Anze Kopitar(1-12) scored the game-winning goal, the fourth of his postseason career (one in each year he has qualified for the playoffs). He recorded at least one point in all seven games in the series (4-610) and now has a 10-game point streak dating to the regular season (8-715).
* According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Kopitar became the first player in Kings history to register points in all seven games of one playoff series and the first NHLer to do so since Red Wings forwardPavel Datsyukin the 2011 Western Conference Semifinals (vs. SJ). Since 1996, the only other player to accomplish that feat in theopening roundof the postseason was Red Wings forwardJohan Franzenin the 2010 Western Conference Quarterfinals (vs. PHX).
*Justin Williamscollected the primary assist on Kopitars game-winning goal and now has 5-510 in five career Game 7s, all victories.
* The Kings played a Game 7 on the road for the first time since April 29, 2002 (4-0 loss at COL) and won a Game 7 on the road for the first time since May 29, 1993 (5-4 win at TOR).
Current KingsMike RichardsandJeff Carteralso were members of the 2010 Flyers team that rallied from a 3-0 series deficit to defeat the Bruins in the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Richards totaled 3-69 in that series, including 1-45 over the final four games, while Carter did not play due to injury.
Jared Spurgeonscored thetying goal with 2:27 remaining in regulationandNino Niederreiterpotted theseries-clinching marker at 5:02 of overtimeto help the Wild rally from four one-goal deficits to advance to the Second Round of the 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
* According to the Elias Sports Bureau, the Wild became the first team in NHL history to record four score-tying goals in a Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs (1-1, 2-2, 3-3, 4-4). They also became the first team to win a Game 7 without ever leading in the contest since 2003, when they defeated the Avalanche in the Western Conference Quarterfinals (3-2 in OT).
* Earlier in the game, Niederreiter (2-13) recorded his first career playoff goal to tie the score at 3-3. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, he became just the third player in NHL history to register his first two postseason goals in a Game 7. The others:Jiri Hrdinafor the Penguins in the 1991 DSF vs. NJ andAdam Henriquefor the Devils in the 2012 CQF vs. FLA. Like Niederreiter, both Hrdina and Henrique also scored the winning goal in that Game 7, with Henrique doing so in double-overtime.
* Elias also says that at age 21, Niederreiter became the second-youngest player in Stanley Cup Playoffs history to record an overtime goal in a Game 7. OnlyClaude Lemieux(20) has done so at a younger age, tallying the series-clinching goal for the Canadiens in Game 7 of the Adams Division Final versus the Whalers on April 29, 1986.
1.Paul Reinhart, CGY (21 years, 108 days): 0-33 at PHI on April 26, 1981
2.Alex Tanguay, COL (21 years, 200 days): 2-13 vs. NJ on June 9, 2001
3.Justin Williams, PHI (21 years, 200 days): 1-23 vs. TOR on April 22, 2003
4.Nino Niederreiter, MIN (21 years, 234 days): 2-13 at COL on April 30, 2014
5.Sidney Crosby, PIT (21 years, 279 days): 2-13 at WSH on May 13, 2009
* Spurgeons goal marked the seventh game-tying goal scored in the final 2:30 of regulation in the 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs. The team that has scored the tying goal has gone on to win all seven games:
Jaden Schwartz, STL 18:15 of Game 1 (STL won 4-3 in 3OT)
Paul Stastny, COL 19:46 of Game 1 (COL won 5-4 in OT)
Vladimir Tarasenko, STL 19:53 of Game 2 (STL won 4-3 in OT)
Brandon Dubinsky, CBJ 19:36 of Game 4 (CBJ won 4-3 in OT)
PA Parenteau, COL 18:46 of Game 5 (COL won 4-3 in OT)
Devante Smith-Pelly, ANA 19:36 of Game 6 (ANA won 5-4 in OT)
Jared Spurgeon, MIN 17:33 of Game 7 (MIN won 5-4 in OT)
*Darcy Kuempermade 17 saves before leaving the game midway through the third period due to injury.Ilya Bryzgalovthen stopped the only shot he faced to record the victory. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Bryzgalov became the second goaltender in Stanley Cup Playoffs history to win a Game 7 in relief. The other:Grant Fuhr, who replacedAndy Moogmidway through the second period to lead the Oilers to a 7-4 victory over the Flames in Game 7 of the Smythe Division Final on April 22, 1984.
* Elias also says that Bryzgalov became the first goaltender to make one or fewer saves in a postseason win since May 2, 2004, when Flyers netminderRobert Eschemade one stop in a 7-2 victory over the Maple Leafs in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
*Mikael Granlundcollected an assist to extend his point streak to five games (2-35).Dany Heatley(1-23) andKyle Brodziak(0-33) also had three-point efforts.
* The Wild and Avalanche now have contested 14 one-goal games in their 20 all-time postseason meetings, including 13 of their last 16 matchups (nine of which required overtime) and five of seven games in this series (four of which went to extra time).
* The Wild became just the third franchise in NHL history to win its first three Game 7s (also STL and TB), but the first to do so with all three victories coming on the road. The Wild also improved to 9-5 all-time in playoff elimination games, including a 5-1 record versus the Avalanche.
Wednesdays Wild-Avalanche matchup marked the 38th Game 7 in Stanley Cup Playoffs history to require overtime (38-of-152, 25.0%). Road teams improved to 19-19 in those games.
Henrik Lundqvistmade 26 saves to backstop the Rangers to their fourth consecutive Game 7 victory (all in the past three years).
* The Rangers improved to 7-5 all-time in Game 7s, including a 6-0 mark at Madison Square Garden. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, they became the first team in NHL history to win a Game 7 in theopening roundof three consecutive postseasons (also defeated OTT in 2012 and WSH in 2013). The Flyers (1974-76) and Bruins (1990-92) are the only other teams to win a Game 7in any roundof three consecutive playoff years.
* Lundqvist improved to 4-1 with a 1.00 goals-against average, .963 save percentage and one shutout in five career Game 7s. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, he is tied withJohnny Bower(3-0, 1.00 GAA) andDwayne Roloson(2-1, 1.00 GAA) for the lowest career goals-against average in Game 7s (minimum, 3 GP). Lundqvists four Game 7 victories also are tied for second among active goaltenders (withCam Ward), behind onlyMartin Brodeur, whose six Game 7 wins are tied for the most in NHL history (withPatrick Roy).
* Lundqvist improved to 7-2 with a 1.43 goals-against average, .951 save percentage and three shutouts in the last nine games in which the Rangers have faced elimination. That includes a 6-0 mark with a 0.98 goals-against average, .965 save percentage and two shutouts in six games at Madison Square Garden.
*Benoit Pouliotscored his third career playoff goal and first game-winner. He now has 2-24 in seven games this postseason, his highest output in any playoff year.
* Making his third appearance of the series,Daniel Carcillorecorded his seventh career postseason goal and second of 2014.

TELEVISION/RADIO; The Rewards And the Risks Of Playing an Icon
By BERNARD WEINRAUB
Published: December 10, 2000
LOS ANGELES— THE scene is a harrowing one. Judy Garland is sitting in a conference room in the early 1960's. Her television variety show is on the ropes. A smarmy CBS executive tells her that compared with other stars on the network, she makes the audience uncomfortable. ''Who makes them comfortable?'' she asks. The executive solemnly replies, ''Lassie.'' Garland says, wanly, ''I'm not Lassie.''
The scene from ''Me and My Shadows,'' an ABC film starring Judy Davis as Garland, both illustrates the humiliations Garland faced at the end of her career and testifies to her extraordinary impact. If television executives found her excessive, live audiences surged to see her. ''She aimed for an intensity that became thrilling for both herself and the audience,'' Ms. Davis said. ''Her songs and orchestrations wind up and reach some peak you can't imagine. If she went any further, she'd have a heart attack and she'd be dead in front of you, and you get the feeling that even then she wouldn't mind.''
The film, which will be shown in late February (in either three hours on one night or four hours over two nights), is based on the 1998 book ''Me and My Shadows: A Family Memoir'' by Garland's daughter Lorna Luft. Early screenings of portions of the film show Ms. Davis -- with the help of makeup, wigs and prosthetics -- bearing an eerie resemblance to Garland. At 45, she is two years younger than Garland was when she died of an accidental overdose of pills in 1969.
The expensive ($12 million) film, which recounts Garland's troubled life and her intense bond with her children, is a risk because she is, like Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley, an iconic cultural figure whose talents have almost been consumed by her tragic persona.
Susan Lyne, executive vice president of movies and miniseries at ABC, said that the biggest risk for the network was finding the right actress. ''You've got to do a movie about Judy Garland only with an actress who has the juice to take on that role -- and Judy Davis has it,'' Ms. Lyne said.
Ms. Davis, a smart, funny and engaging actress who has played other divas, including Edith Piaf and Lillian Hellman, said that Judy Garland was the hardest role of her 25-year career. Weeks after filming had ended, she said, she could not entirely free herself from Judy Garland.
''With Garland there's always a line you're frightened of crossing,'' Ms. Davis said, seated in the coffee shop of a West Hollywood hotel shortly before flying back to her husband and two children in Sydney, Australia. ''It's daunting to play someone that talented. And whether she's just sitting there having a drink or whether it's hysteria, there's a line that you must not cross, because then you go into caricature and that's too awful to contemplate.''
Ms. Davis said she had become unusually upset and broke down watching a scene in which she, as Garland, realized that her managers were stealing her money and that she was broke. ''It was upsetting because it was real, and she was also physically sick and obese and sick with drugs and I was relating it,'' Ms. Davis said. ''This role demanded every part of me. She was bigger than me, much more talented with much bigger emotions. She was braver. So I had to get bigger to play her.''
The film covers Garland's life from the time she began performing on stage as Frances ''Baby'' Gumm at the age of 2 in Grand Rapids, Minn., through her stardom in ''The Wizard of Oz'' and her golden but tortured career at MGM, where she worked nonstop and became addicted to the pills that eventually killed her. In her 30's and 40's, Garland's life and career were marked by failures, comebacks, money problems, a suicide attempt and shattered marriages. Her voice was dimming, too, partly because she had overworked it and partly because of her addiction to pills, which damaged her vocal cords.
''She was a tremendous pill abuser -- she was known to take 40 Ritalins a day,'' Ms. Davis said. ''She was a creature of great extremes. It's hard to avoid the reality of what was done to her at MGM when she was 13. Once they realized her effect on audiences and that she was brilliantly talented, they just worked her into the ground. The only time she had a holiday was when she had a nervous breakdown.
''Maybe the system destroyed her, but everybody participated in it, including Garland. She wanted to be a movie star. She was very ambitious. And she made her pact with the devil: 'Yes, I'll take the Benzedrine to lose weight. I'll take them all. I'll do whatever you want.' ''
Ms. Davis said she had read every book about Garland and had watched the numerous videos of her interviews and performances. ''Playing her scared me, to tell you the truth,'' Ms. Davis said. ''It was the sort of challenge I didn't need because there was an in-built failure to it. I was frightened all the way through filming, which was unusual for me. Every day. But I knew I couldn't have taken one step forward if I kept worrying that people who knew her will say, 'Well, she didn't walk that way,' or, 'She didn't speak like that.' I suppose in the end the danger for me was that I would not be able to inhabit her in a truthful way.''

It was great ever plug-in that we used but we realised a bug today!
I was working great at the begining but later today gives error failed to send email cause of Akismet spam. So I deleted Akismet but it gives same error. I thought first contact form 7 is not working properly, but when i research, the problem is Configure SMTP. When I change that plugin with alternative one, it works like a charm. Somehow, after sent many emails, its not sending more and Contact Form 7 gives that error.
But I am unhappy because I like Configure SMTP gmail function. I hope you solve that problem soon.

Being exposed to the existence of other languages increases the perception that the world is populated by people who not only speak differently from oneself but whose cultures and philosophies are other than one's own. Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry but by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try to understand each other, we may even become friends.

BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Lisa See's Shanghai Girls.
"I finally understand what the poets have written. In spring, moved to passion; in autumn only regret."
For young Peony, betrothed to a suitor she has never met, these lyrics from The Peony Pavilion mirror her own longings. In the garden of the Chen Family Villa, amid the scent of ginger, green tea, and jasmine, a small theatrical troupe is performing scenes from this epic opera, a live spectacle few females have ever seen. Like the heroine in the drama, Peony is the cloistered daughter of a wealthy family, trapped like a good-luck cricket in a bamboo-and-lacquer cage. Though raised to be obedient, Peony has dreams of her own.
Peony's mother is against her daughter' s attending the production: "Unmarried girls should not be seen in public." But Peony' s father assures his wife that proprieties will be maintained, and that the women will watch the opera from behind a screen. Yet through its cracks, Peony catches sight of an elegant, handsome man with hair as black as a cave–and is immediately overcome with emotion.
So begins Peony's unforgettable journey of love and destiny, desire and sorrow–as Lisa See's haunting new novel, based on actual historical events, takes readers back to seventeenth-century China, after the Manchus seize power and the Ming dynasty is crushed.
Steeped in traditions and ritual, this story brings to life another time and place–even the intricate realm of the afterworld, with its protocols, pathways, and stages of existence, a vividly imagined place where one' s soul is divided into three, ancestors offer guidance, misdeeds are punished, and hungry ghosts wander the earth. Immersed in the richness and magic of the Chinese vision of the afterlife, transcending even death, Peony in Love explores, beautifully, the many manifestations of love. Ultimately, Lisa See's new novel addresses universal themes: the bonds of friendship, the power of words, and the age-old desire of women to be heard.

Flight Instructor
Physical Danger
Yeah, the aieee splat thing.
There's nothing like the threat of imminent, fiery, painful death to make ya focus. But statistically, planes are safer than cars. Most pilots feel vastly safer in the air than they do on a freeway at 11:30 on a Saturday night surrounded by drunks.
There's another element of the physical here in that pilots have to be in decent physical shape to even be allowed to fly. Eyes must be at minimum performance levels. Blood pressure and weight have to be under control, etc. The situation isn't like a line worker complaining about prejudice against fat people in filing a legal claim against his employer—in this case, if a pilot has a heart attack while in the air, hundreds of people die with him.
So the rules are real and the restrictions serious.
As part of something called the armed pilots program, pilots are even allowed to keep a gun handy in the cockpit, just in case there is any terrorist activity on board. Which means gun training for new pilots in addition to simply showing them the ropes at the controls.

2002 Toyota Tacoma Xtracab 2dr Xtracab V6 4WD SB (3.4L 6cyl 5M)
I had lusted a red Toyota 4x4 Xtracab since I was in college, and my wife and I could finally afford to buy this one new TRD off the lot. We've taken into the most inhospitable places in the Colorado high country, moved out of two houses with it, landscaped innumerable lots with it, and added kids to the mix in between all the rest. It's been flawless overall, and we still love it dearly after 8 1/2 years. Given, the interior is small for a child seat and two 5'10 and over adults. Yes, there are a few rattles, it gets < 20 mpg, and rides like a buckboard wagon. But, it's a go-anywhere truck that always works. We've never regretted buying it, even once.
Goes anywhere. Carries lots. Always works. What more could we want?
None. The '02 was the pinnacle of the Tacomas. The new ones only have 9" or so of running clearance; the older style like ours has almost 12". Toyota at its best.
Bought brand new in 02. No mechanical problems, only issue was rattle in dash. 4WD is great! Decent MPG for a v6 4WD ~19 overall.
Have had no problems with truck other than the average wear and tear of use. No rust and it's now 3/1/08. Have owned 3 toyotas and this is the best. Recommend and will purchase another. 4WD works great.
4WD on the fly. Size.
Better defrost. Never needed it until I moved to Maine. On really, really cold days defrost only works up to @ 6-8 inches above steering wheel. Wish there was a diesel option.
I bought this truck new in 2002 and besides a replaced power steering pump (under warranty) I have had no mechanical issues. Toyota quality is second to none. Only gripes I have is the placement of the clock, and a jittery ride over bad pavement, and mediocre gas mileage (18 mpg avg.) but hey, its a truck. Stock tires were crap and after replacing them with bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo's the handling improved greatly. This truck has never let me down, and I'll probably have it forever. Its still as solid as the day I drove it off the lot. It always pays to have a great pickup.
Size. Its much easier to park this thing than a full size chevy or ford or even tundra.
New tires hands down. Maybe add the TRD supercharger. I would if I had money to blow.
I have found not problems with the truck. when needed the 4 wheel drive is indispensible. have never been stuck and vehicle always starts. Installed an engine block heater for cold climates.
4 wheel drive. good highway truck

After looking around and not being able to find a Bulk CSV Importer for the wonderful Events Manager wordpress plugin, I commissioned a coder to develop a Bulk CSV Import add-on that does not modify any core code files (so you can update wordpress and plugins freely). It is a very simple integration and clean and I tested it on my own site many times. The plugin saved me HOURS of manual entry time and cost when having to add hundreds of events to my site.
Just trying to recoup my costs so grab it if it is what you are looking for.

Please upgrade to 0.6.0 to fix the issue where login is requested for every page view.
I have the 0.6.0 version but the login is still requested for every page view. I have an "old version" of wordpress (3.2.1. ) because of my host free.fr, maybe it's a part of the problem.
Thank You.
I've only seen reports of problems with this plugin since 0.6.0 if you also have caching plugins installed.
Can you check if you have any cache plugins running (or your host might have them installed without you knowing)?
If you are able to, try disabling all your other plugins except for Friends Only, to make sure it's not a plugin conflict.
I expect it should work fine with 3.2.1.
I disabled all my other plugins, no difference. I think it's a problem with my host because I have no problem when I use it in local.
So I think I can't do nothing. :(
I suspect that your host is using a caching plugin - I have heard reports of problems with caching plugins before, and I haven't yet worked out how to address this issue.

Arguments about "where we are going!" can turn road trips sour. Navigation systems obviously help., but the unsung hero of a successful road trip comes in the form of Around View Monitor. Infiniti pioneered the system, which makes parking easy, helps you avoid blind spots, and generally keeps back seat drivers off your ass. How can you dispute that perk?

I recently received help in this forum about changing the top margin in such way that it would not cut the page title using the following code
h1.entry-title, h2.entry-title {
margin-top: 50px;
My question now is there a way to imply this rule on other entities such as a post feature image and the link that gives you the option to return back i.e. Home>>some other page.
Many thanks

Discussion in 'Star Trek Movies XI+' started by jefferiestubes8, Dec 12, 2011.
Gina Torres. I love her voice.
"Take me, sir. Take me hard."
Now in STTMP: we heard a female voice over when McCoy asked Kirk "Permission to come aboard?" and Kirk didn't say anything. I don't think that was Majel's voice, but it was clear. The woman who did the computer voice in Andromeda Strain--or if you must have a mascuine voice, perhaps the man who did the countdown on Oldfield's Songs from Distant Earth.
It should be Shatner, of course.
I think that was Janice Rand (speaking from behind the glass partition).
^ I thought it sounded like Uhura.
In another thread like this, I said I'd like to hear either Gina Torres or Amanda Tapping. However, upon further consideration, I think my first choice would be Claudia Black.
I'm pretty sure it's Rand.
That was Transporter Chief Janice Rand, IIRC, not a computer voice.
Ah, already answered.
Separate names with a comma.

Hey there
So I have a new custom post type, with custom taxonomy (aka custom categories)
I poped in a few posts, then hit EXPORT (to get a base XML file to build an importer)
I noticed if you export a blog post from a normal category each "item" has a category:
However exporting custom "items", with the custom taxonomy is exported in the channel there is no linking of the ITEM to their specific taxonomy.
Is there a way to add this into the exporter? Both my register_post_type() and register_taxonomy() include the line 'can_export' => true, but doesn't seem to help (at least not for what I need)
I did an import of 150 "items" ... everything works, all custom data etc, except I had no way to set the relationship between the "item" and the "custom - term_taxonomy"
Anyone else notice this?
It makes it impossible to export all my custom posts & import them back into the right custom taxonomy
Or .. am I really missing something here?
Any help MUCH appreciated

Problem with dish network,
I was a long time customer with Dish Netwiork and they increased my existing
services considerably. I called their customer service people and explained
my concerns. They were very rude and did not want work with me regarding new charges. When I cancelled the services they wanted me to send their equipment and elements from the roof at my expense even though it was
installed by a local shop owner. I volunteered to return this equipment to
him. But I was forced to send the equipment at my own expense by UPS to another address in another state. Bad part was that I was on Auto pay from
my bank and they would not stop this auto pay and Dish Network kept deducting from my account. I would never trust Dish Network and use their services again

"..increased my existing services considerably"
What "services" did they increase considerably? Did they add channels or internet services? How much is "considerably?"
"When I cancelled the services they wanted me to send their equipment and elements from the roof at my expense even though it was installed by a local shop owner."
It doesn';t matter who installed it, your contract with Dish calls for YOU to return it at YOUR expense.
"they would not stop this auto pay and Dish Network kept deducting from my account."
What reason did they give for continuing to deduct from your account? Did you owe and Early Termination Fee, were behind in payments, didn't return the equipment or were charged for PPV movies you watched? If there was no reason and they just took your money because they could, report them to the FTC and your states attorney general. My bet is, you're NOT telling the whole story here.
Nope, I DON'T work for them.

My friend and I had been lookign to book a vacation package. We searched and searched until we came across Hotels.com. They had an option to buy vacation packages, so of course, I clicked it. When I was looking at their deals, I thought it was amazing the prices that they were offering. When chose a package and when my friend when to purchase it, we made sure that the taxes and any other additional fees were included in the final price. So, of course, we knew that the price would be a little higher because of all those fees. My friend then went to book our package, but befoer she could, Hotels.com asked to do a test purchase of 800$ to make sure that her creditcard would work.
They told her it was temporary and it would go away on her purchase history. Then, once she passed this 800$ "test" she wnt to purchase the actualy package. She purchased it at the price that was shown in the finalization price. Then, all of a sudden, ehr creditcard was beign charge an extra 350$ more AFTER purchasing at the SET FINAL PRICE. They started charing her this extra 350$ due to plane fees, yet this was not at all included in the price that we actually purchased. It's a good thing she checked her bank account because we were able to call and reverse the transaction but she now has to wait for two days until her money goes back into her account. This whole process was absolutely ridiculous. We now have to wait those extra two days unti lwe can buy a different vacation package from a reptuable site. Hotels.com is asite fileld with nothing but lies, which if you dare to use thier site, be ready to embrace the impending headache to follow in your dark crusade through the secret fees of Hotels.com
