Fionnan Sheahan: What the parties would do to clear up this mess
Published 01/09/2010 | 05:00
The Cabinet meets today, for the first time since the summer break, with the future of Anglo Irish Bank high on the agenda.
Fianna Fail and the Green Party appear to be at odds over the future of the nationalised bank, with the junior party wanting a faster shutdown.
On the opposition benches, Fine Gael and the Labour Party are arguing for it to be wound down over an even shorter period.
But the solution to the problem of Anglo, which has already had €22bn invested in it by the taxpayer, is not that simple.
The Irish Independent put the five key questions on Anglo's future to each of the parties to see if they had the answers.
1. How much would your solution to Anglo Irish Bank cost?
Background: None of the options is without a cost, so the debate is academic without figures.
Department of Finance: Up to €25bn, based on best estimates, but losses can change depending on a variety of factors, including NAMA discounts, the performances of borrowers and the economy.
Fine Gael's Michael Noonan: No figure but wants Finance Minister Brian Lenihan to publish the cost of the options. Believes wind-down is less than good bank-bad bank option and estimates that at €38bn.
Labour Party's Joan Burton: No figure as it's difficult to put a figure without sight and access to a breakdown of the bank's figures.
Green Party's Dan Boyle: €25bn, based on the general trends so far.
2. How long would it take to implement this solution?
Background: Estimates vary on how long it would take to shut the bank down and over how long the cost to the taxpayer would be spread.
Department: Not saying but promises a decision on the bank's future within weeks.
Fine Gael: 7-10 years to wind down the bank.
Labour Party: 5-6 years for the bulk, but up to 10 years for the remainder.
Green Party: 4-5 years for wind-down.
3. Would you pay all the depositors their full amounts, including the European Central Bank?
Background: Anglo had customer and inter-bank deposits of €56.5bn on its books at the end of June, including €22bn owned by the Central Bank and European Central Bank.
Department: Yes, the key objective is to minimise the cost of Anglo to the State and protect these deposits.
Fine Gael: Yes.
Labour Party: Yes.
Green Party: Yes.
4. Would you pay all the professional investors and bondholders the full amounts they are owed? If not, how much would you pay?
Background: A key point when estimating the cost of the options is how much of a loss those who lent to the bank would incur.
Department of Finance: Losses already imposed on subordinated bondholders in equity buyback. Notes many of the professional investors are the same investors from whom the State borrows.
Fine Gael: Not promising to pay full amount. Believes €6bn can be saved from negotiating with subordinate bondholders and debt-for-equity swaps with senior bondholders.
Labour Party: Not promising to pay full amount. Negotiated settlement with significant discount on subordinated debt and a markdown on senior debt.
Green Party: Not promising to pay full amount. It depends on the level of investment and negotiations with bondholders.
5. Will your solution have knock-on effects for the ability of other Irish banks to secure investment and deposits and the cost and availability of state borrowing?
Background: Concerns that a wind-down would damage the reputation of the country and the banking system, as well as making it harder to borrow and get investment.
Department: Steps taken by the Government are to ensure the State has a functioning banking system that can meet the needs of creditworthy businesses and individuals.
Fine Gael: No, not any more because the circumstances have changed.
Labour Party: No, a resolution of Anglo would help stop the continual unravelling of banks and State borrowing.
Green Party: Not if it is handled properly, doesn't think it will.

The House I Live In
US Documentary, Grand Jury Prize, Sundance Film Festival Awards
A film by Eugene Jarecki
Winner of the best documentary prize at Sundance, the latest film by Eugene Jarecki (The Trials of Henry Kissinger, Why We Fight) ranks with The Thin Blue Line, Bowling for Columbine, and Inside Job as a great documentary polemic. The subject is the "War on Drugs", which, as this eye-opening film persuasively shows, is more precisely a war on those who are perceived as class and racial outsiders—dating back to the 19th century (when opium was used to demonize Chinese immigrants), officially inaugurated by Richard Nixon, escalated by Ronald Reagan, and espoused by virtually every major Presidential candidate ever since.
Using eloquent analysts (including The Wire creator David Simon and historian Richard Lawrence Miller), compelling personal stories from all sides and levels of the "war", and his own experience as a child of Holocaust survivors, Jarecki lucidly and passionately builds an in-depth case against a policy that demonstrably doesn't work, has a ruinous effect on American society, but remains entrenched thanks to its profitability and political expediency.
It's a film as profoundly sad as it is enraging and potentially galvanizing, and it's one of the most important pieces of nonfiction to hit the screen in years.
—Sheri Linden, Los Angeles Times
Jarecki's film makes a shattering case against the War on Drugs…

William Burke
Learn about upgrading this memorial...
Mar. 19, 1845
County Sligo, Ireland
Jul. 29, 1919
Philadelphia County
Pennsylvania, USA
William Burke (1845-1919) of County Sligo, Ireland was a migrant from Ireland to the United States on February 15, 1863. He worked as a milk dealer in Jersey City, New Jersey. He died of "exhaustion from senile dementia" which was most likely Alzheimer's disease. (b. circa March 19, 1845; County Sligo, Ireland - d. July 29, 1919; Philadelphia General Hospital, Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, USA)
Mary and John Burke (c1820-?) of Ireland.
He was born circa March 19, 1845 in County Sligo, Ireland.
He emigrated to the United States on February 15, 1863 at age 18, to New York City.
He married Margaret Kane (1846-1912) in 1868. The information comes from the 1900 US census. He was most likely married in Jersey City or New York City. However their marriage does not appear in the "New Jersey Marriage Records, May 1848 - May 1878" indexed by the New Jersey State Archive.
Together they had at least two children: John Joseph Burke (1868-1939) who married Nora M. Finn (1866-1898) and after her death married Josephine Smith (1875-1962); and Mary Ellen Burke (1870-1957) who married Richard B. Patterson II (1869-1930). According to the 1900 US Census they only had two children and both were alive.
He was naturalized as a US citizen on October 27, 1874 in Jersey City and his certificate was handed down in the family and was last with his great-grandson, Vincent Gerard Norton (1923-2005) until his death in Sarasota, Florida. It is now with Kenneth Norton in Sarasota, Florida.
Milk dealer:
He operated a milk dealership from his home at 26 Atlantic Avenue in Jersey City, New Jersey.
Marriage of son:
Around 1889, his son, John married Nora M. Finn (1866-1898) and she gave birth to Mary Margaret Burke (1890-1949) aka May Burke. In 1898 Nora died of pneumonia and Mary was raised by Nora's sister, Catherine Elizabeth Finn (1863-1918) aka Kate Finn, who worked as a secretary at a pencil company. In 1899 John Burke then married Josephine Smith (1875-1962) and they had five children together. John had trouble earning enough money to support his children so the girls were raised by his sister, Mary Burke.
Mary Ellen Burke (1870-1957) had two step-children from her husband's previous marriage: Leona Veronica Patterson; and John Patterson.
Jersey City, New Jersey:
The family was living at 26 Atlantic Avenue in Jersey City, New Jersey in 1900. John did not list an occupation.
By 1910 William Burke and his wife, Margaret, retired to Delaware County, Pennsylvania and lived with their daughter, Mary Ellen Burke, and her husband, Richard B. Patterson II .
Death of wife:
Margaret died on June 12, 1912 and William bought a cemetery plot in Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery in Yeadon, Pennsylvania. The deed was in the possession of Vincent Gerard Norton (1923-2005) in Florida as of 2005, and is now with his son Kenneth.
William Burke died on July 29, 1919 at the Philadelphia General Hospital in Philadelphia. He died of what was most likely Alzheimer's disease and his death certificate lists the cause of death as "exhaustion from senile dementia".
He was buried in Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery in Yeadon, Pennsylvania with: his wife, Margaret Kane; his daughter, Mary Ellen Burke; and Mary's husband, Richard B. Patterson II; and two of his granddaughters: Bertha M. Burke (1902-1971) and Josephine Veronica Burke (1907-1995). There are no markers for any of the graves.
The deed to his cemetery plot and his naturalization certificate were handed down in the family and were last with his second great-grandson, Kenneth Stephen Norton (1955- ) in Sarasota, Florida as of 2011.
William Burke (1845-1919) was the second, great-grandfather of Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) and Kenneth Stephen Norton (1955- ). He was the great-grandfather of John Edward Burke (1934- ).
Memories of William Burke:
Mary Jane Burke (1941- ) said by telephone conversation on March 23, 2001: "William Burke (1841-1919) was a dairy farmer in Jersey City and he was from County Sligo, Ireland. His wife may have been from the same Irish county, I don't know if the met in the United States or married in Ireland. Their farm may have been where St. Patrick's Church was built, or nearby to it. The church was built in 1898 and the school may have been around 1904. For some reason they moved to Pennsylvania when they were older, perhaps they retired from the farm and lived with their daughter, Mary Ellen Burke. Their daughter was already living in Pennsylvania."
Researched and written by Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) for Findagrave starting on June 20, 2003. Updated on Saint Patrick's Day, March 17, 2011 by expanding the lede and changing the information on the step-grandchildren reinforcing that Richard Patterson was married before. Updated on September 21, 2014 with more details on his marriage.

Brewers' TV ratings take a hit
The ratings for Milwaukee Brewers baseball on Fox Sports Wisconsin are down 27% through June 30, compared with the same time period last season.
For broadcasts through June 30, the rating was 5.20, down 26.9%. The broadcasts are reaching 46,893 households on average, a drop of 27.2%.
The ratings numbers were first reported by SportsBusiness Journal.
Mike Dimond, Fox Sports' senior vice president and general manager, said the Brewers still ranked eighth in Major League Baseball for local broadcast ratings. Last year, the team was sixth.
"I'm encouraged by the ratings," Dimond said. "This is a baseball town, and on many nights we are the highest-rated show."
Dimond said two markets - Cincinnati and Tampa Bay - have jumped ahead of Milwaukee in regional sports network ratings largely because the Reds and Rays are having good seasons.
Dimond also said he was encouraged by the Brewers' recent play. If that continues, ratings should go up, he said.
"Winning cures all ills," he said.
The St. Louis Cardinals have the highest local ratings in baseball: 9.70, up 41.6%.

Atlas Shrugged
by Ayn Rand
Atlas Shrugged Volume 2, Chapter 6 Summary
Miracle Metal
- A Looters club meeting is going down in Washington.
- Who is there: Evil scientist Dr. Ferris; Bad Banker Eugene Lawson; everyone's favorite politician Wesley Mouch; our bad seed James Taggart and his BFF Orren Boyle; a guy named Fred Kinnan; and a Mr. Thompson, none other than the Head of State of the USA.
- They are all playing an exciting round of the blame game, griping at one another for various problems and complaining about how bad things are and how they need to do something.
- Wesley is snippy; Mr. Thompson is chilling on the sidelines, letting everyone else duke it out; Orren is complaining; James and Eugene are spouting rhetoric and whining. Fred and Dr. Ferris seem to be the only ones willing to call everyone out and admit that they all just want power.
- After complaining and talking in circles for a while, we learn that they are meeting about a specific directive that they want to pass.
- Thompson tells Wesley to go ahead with the directive; no one will oppose it in Washington. He then leaves the meeting.
- Wesley starts reading off Directive 10-289 to everyone, though they are familiar with it.
- Directive 10-289 Rundown: The goal of this directive is to achieve "total stability."
- Main points: No one is allowed to leave their current jobs, and the Unification Board will handle all employment issues. No business owner is allowed to quit and disappear. All patents and copyrights will be handed over to the government. No new inventions can go on the market. Everyone has to spend the same amount of money they did in the previous year, or the Basic Year. Everyone's salaries are now frozen.
- Everyone starts talking quickly, trying to justify the Directive by saying that they'll achieve total stability and security with it.
- They then run through the points that will cause potential problems.
- Wesley says they have enough Emergency Power to cover passing this Directive, which is otherwise pretty unconstitutional.
- We learn that Fred Kinnan runs the labor unions, and he demands to have his people stacked on the Unification Board.
- They all say that some people will just have to be "sacrificed." No welfare for people like the researchers who will be out of jobs when they close down the laboratories (no new inventions, remember).
- They are concerned that Hank won't cooperate and hand over his patents – the government can't legally force him to do it. But James promises that he has dirt on Hank and can make him do it.
- The meeting concludes. We think this Directive thing merits a big doom: Doom!
- Scene cut. Dagny wakes up early in her office after like three hours of sleep, yet she's still excited to start her day. Is this a Folger's Coffee commercial?
- She is running through all the problems she has to tackle today when Francisco calls and asks if she's read the paper yet. She says no. He says get one.
- Dagny reads about the Directive passing and is furious.
- She marches into James's office and resigns on the spot, saying she won't work for a bunch of corrupt, immoral, power-mad morons.
- Dagny bids Eddie a fond farewell and says she's going to her family's cabin near Woodstock to think things over and decide what to do.
- Dagny calls Hank to tell him where she's going and he says he'll come get her. Hank has two weeks to hand over his Rearden Metal patent and he's not sure what will happen to him when he refuses. He wants Dagny safely out of harm's way.
- Scene cut. Things are bad at Rearden Steel. Lots of good employees quit and run for it after the Directive passes. No one wants to be chained to his job like a slave.
- The Wet Nurse is worried for Hank.
- Everyone waits anxiously. Nobody is sure how much worse things will get now that the government has gone all crazy dictatorship on people.
- Lillian randomly goes out of town, which is shifty.
- Finally the deadline arrives and Ferris comes to collect Hank's patents.
- Hank refuses and Ferris pulls out his secret weapon. He knows all about Hank's relationship with Dagny and will expose it, ruining Dagny's reputation, if Hank doesn't sign his patents over.
- Hank is horrified and comes to a Major Epiphany, or realization.
- The Epiphany: Hank realizes that he's made a huge mistake and has been complicit in the looters' awful moral system. He treated his relationship with Dagny as a shameful affair, which opened the door for people like Ferris to blackmail him. He should have been honest about his relationship from the start to avoid this sort of thing, and now he's screwed. Hank realizes that the looters prey on good people and use their morals against them.
- Hank can't let Dagny's name be smeared. He now realizes that he's in love with Dagny and has done wrong by her. He has an epic flashback to the first time he saw Dagny. It was love at first sight, even though he didn't realize it then.
- In his mind, Hank tells the Dagny he met a few years ago that he loves her. Then he signs the "Gift Certificate" handing over his Rearden Metal. Hanks thinks that he'll pay the price for his folly, but he won't let Dagny pay it for him.

UP ministers 18-yr-old son dies in accident

Uttar Pradesh Horticulture and Food Processing Minister Raj Kishore Singh's 18-year-old son Upendra Kumar Singh alias Shubham died when he lost control over the SUV he was driving. The vehicle collided with the parapet of a flyover in Lucknow's Gomti Nagar area on Wednesday morning.
The vehicle, a Tata Safari, which belonged to the minister, was badly smashed in the accident. Upendra, a student of class XII, died on the spot.
The police said the incident occurred due to rash driving. They also suspect Upendra was talking on the cellphone while driving. It is not clear where he was going.
Sub-Inspector Parush Ram Ojha of the Udyan police outpost, who was the first person to reach the spot on getting information from the police control room, said the body was flung out of the vehicle due to the impact.
She sent Brij Kishore Singh, the minister's brother, to bring him back. She also called up Upendra and asked him to come back, but he did not. By the time Brij Kishore reached the spot, it was all over.
As the news of the incident spread, Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav and several ministers visited Singh's residence to console the family.
None in the family was in a condition to talk about why Upendra left home and where he was going.
He said the SUV, which was being driven at high speed, hit the parapet on both sides of the road several times and an electrical pole as it hurtled down the road before stopping in mangled pieces.
Ojha said that, to begin with, there were two more persons in the vehicle, but Upendra reportedly asked them to get down and took over the steering. A short distance later, the tragedy ocurred. The two men informed the family which, in turn, informed the police control room, said Ojha.

Ivanhoe Principles Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #4
The champions were therefore prohibited to thrust with the sword, and were confined to striking. A knight, it was announced, might use a mace or battle-axe at pleasure; but the dagger was a prohibited weapon. A knight unhorsed might renew the fight on foot with any other on the opposite side in the same predicament; but mounted horsemen were in that case forbidden to assail him. (12.14)
This is only a small part of the rules for the second day of the tournament, when two opposing teams of knights fight together in a mock battle. All of these rules and regulations work together to make the violence of the fights manageable and fun for the spectators. In fact, except for the small-scale siege of Torquilstone, Front-de-Boeuf's castle, there aren't any true battles in this novel. There are tournaments, duels and tussles, but the violence of both the Crusades and of the Norman invasion happens off-screen, before the novel even takes place. These large-scale events serve as a backdrop to Ivanhoe, but the action of the book is mostly personal and even anticlimactic (in the case of Bois-Guilbert's sudden stroke during his joust with Ivanhoe). Why might Scott choose to focus on tournaments rather than real wars? How would this novel be different if Scott had tried to represent the Crusades or the Norman invasion directly?
Quote #5
[The interest of the men in the audience] showed itself in loud acclamations upon every change of fortune, while all eyes were so riveted on the lists that the spectators seemed as if they themselves had dealt and received the blows which were there so freely bestowed. And between every pause was heard the voice of the heralds, exclaiming, "Fight on, brave knights! Man dies, but glory lives! Fight on; death is better than defeat! Fight on, brave knights! for bright eyes behold your deeds!" (12.22)
The fact that people used to fight each other with swords to amuse an audience is proof of how savage the Middle Ages were, according to the narrator. Have things really changed all that much, though? It's a shame Scott didn't live long enough to see a mixed martial arts tournament.
It's also striking that the heralds encourage the knights to fight for two concepts: glory and "bright eyes" – i.e. ladies. Ideals of honor and courtly love are both extremely important to the codes of chivalry. Among the knights fighting in this scene (Bois-Guilbert, Ivanhoe, Front-de-Boeuf, etc.) who would you say is most chivalrous? Who best fits your image of an ideal knight? Why?
Quote #6
"I did injustice," he said, "to the thieves and outlaws of these woods, when I supposed such banditti to belong to their bands; I might as justly have confounded the foxes of these brakes with the ravening wolves of France. Tell me, dogs – is it my life or my wealth that your master aims at? Is it too much that two Saxons, myself and the noble Athelstane, should hold land in the country which was once the patrimony of our race? (21.25)
Arriving at Front-de-Boeuf's castle, we're treated to one of Cedric's typical anti-Norman rants. Cedric gets into a grey area, though, when he starts talking about England as "the patrimony of [the Saxon] race." A patrimony is an estate that has belonged to a particular family or people since ancient times. That's not really right, though. The Saxons were not the native people of England. When they arrived in the 5th century, they conquered the Celtic people who lived there before them. Looks like Cedric's Saxon nationalism is at least a bit hypocritical.

Exhibitors won't just find exceptional target groups and markets at Lake Constance, they will also fi nd a trade fair concept off ering enormous added value: image building or brand positioning, PR events and unusual media collaborations – more of all that is possible at TUNING WORLD BODENSEE than anywhere else. New formats and tools are being developed in line with the dynamism of the industry and the event itself. So if you want more, exhibit here!
TUNING WORLD BODENSEE off ers the industry big markets and an ideal setting:
Harald Schmidtke, CEO, Association of Automobile Tuners (VDAT):
"From the perspective of the exhibitors, the structural enhancements made to Tuning World Bodensee have really improved the exhibition. Since the weekend wasn't as long, the total number of visitors was slightly lower than in 2014, but it was still high enough to show that the exhibition-goers accepted the changes too. The VDAT will be glad to come again next year."
Manfred Hoffmann, CEO, Sonax GmbH:
"The exhibition went exceedingly well and we're very satisfied. With our show, "Sexy Car Wash", we attract more enthusiastic spectators every year. And their interest in buying is as strong as anticipated, so it too has increased each year. We have great expectations, but they're justified. Each year we bring a large crew to Friedrichshafen and so can offer quality consulting, which is an even higher priority for us than making sales at our booth. To us, Tuning World Bodensee is one of the most important end consumer-oriented exhibitions that we present at."
Jörg Schramm, CEO, Wetterauer Automotive GmbH:
"This was the best year yet!"
Sabine Stiller, Marketing, Yokohama Tires:
"Yokohama is very satisfied with the thirteenth Tuning World Bodensee. This exhibition always provides us with a good setting in which to present our products and activities. Right at the start of this year's exhibition, we were able to introduce our new Advan Neova AD08R tuning tire and present our current Facebook activities to the audience. The visitors want to be entertained. We're happy to use that. So for us, the exhibition is just as important as our soccer sponsorships for boosting awareness of our brand. We would like to thank the entire exhibition team for their great support."
Corinna Gräff, spokesperson for Gymkhana Drift Team:
"The preparations for the Gymkhana Drift Cup took six years. Here at the exhibition the implementation was just as we imagined it. One visitor said: 'I never want to leave!' We're very satisfied with the number of spectators. Although only the qualification runs took place in dry weather, and not the finals, many people were there. And we've never had such a nice drivers' camp. The visitors were really interested, especially when we opened the drivers' camp and they could look at the cars. Many drivers gave out autographs. We would love to put on the Gymkhana Drift Cup the same way again next year, and I'm sure that drivers from across Europe will participate."
Michael Dresel, Regional Manager, Premio Reifen + Autoservice:
"Despite the rather restrained kick-off on Thursday, we are very satisfied with the heavy audience traffic of the last few days. Friday, especially, was great. Tuning World Bodensee is our only exhibition in the south. Our company values it highly and it plays an important role in communicating our brand image."
Johannes Wacker, Product Manager, KW automotive GmbH:
"The standards of the exhibition-goers are very high, and the quality of Tuning World Bodensee's catchment area, the tri-border region of Germany, France and Switzerland, is clearly apparent. We're satisfied with the feedback of the visitors, who had informed themselves very well about our activities in advance and came to our exhibition stand with the intent to purchase. We feel right at home at Tuning World Bodensee."

AbstractBiometric systems based on uni-modal traits are characterized by noisy sensor data, restricted degrees of freedom, non-universality and are susceptible to spoof attacks. Multi-modal biometric systems seek to alleviate some of these drawbacks by providing multiple evidences of the same identity. In this paper, a user-score-based weighting technique for integrating the iris and signature traits is presented. This user-specific weighting technique has proved to be an efficient and effective fusion scheme which increases the authentication accuracy rate of multi-modal biometric systems. The weights are used to indicate the importance of matching scores output by each biometrics trait. The experimental results show that our biometric system based on the integration of iris and signature traits achieve a false rejection rate (FRR) of 0.08% and a false acceptance rate (FAR) of 0.01%.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I went home and immediately contacted One Life Fitness Greenbrier and spoke with the manager, John. He explained to me that yes our memberships were being transferred and that the rates would be honored. He said that we could go ahead and start coming to One Life and using the facility because they had been told that the staff at Bally's just didn't care about helping anyone (true). He said that welcome packs would be passed out starting June 11th.
My husband and I had a tour of the facility three weeks ago and were told again by another employee that our contracts, including rates, from Bally's would be honored. We were given temporary passes, and were satisfied that transferring to One Life was a good idea. We had never been very satisfied with the condition of things at Bally's, but at $19.99/month with a pool it was a good deal for us. Since memberships at One Life were $39.99/month with outrageous registration fees we decided to make the switch.
Last week I stopped by One Life to pick up the welcome packet and was told by the girl at the front desk that Bally's hadn't turned over the database with the membership information so the welcome packets weren't ready yet. She said that Bally's had to turn everything over by this Thursday because June 22nd was the day Bally's was closing its doors, so to stop by the following week.
I stopped by today and was shocked to learn that I couldn't use the temporary pass anymore, the welcome packets had been taken away, and if I wanted to use the gym I had to join and they were offering $30.00/month with no registration fee. I told her that Bally's had already taken my and my husband's membership fees out for the upcoming month. She informed me that on Monday Bally's said that memberships weren't being transferred, and that the Commonwealth of Virginia had stepped in and told them that they couldn't force people to choose them as their fitness facility.
This is totally ridiculous. Bally's has already charged us for the upcoming month, and is only offering a prorated refund now because we didn't give them 30 days notice. One Life is refusing to honor the contract rates like they said they would. I can't believe they think they are doing us a favor by letting us join their gym for $30.00/month when our contract with Bally's is for $19.99/month. The only person that wins in this mess is One Life because they don't have to honor the lifetime memberships and discounted memberships that the members of Bally's had.

I have a site, everything is ok except the Blog does not properly. The site is live and I have another test site where it is working. I am using a purchased Theme without any support.
How can I find out where the problem is? I have looked at Firebug, but don't really understand what it is telling me.
Anybody willing to help?


text:
I've created all of the necessary templates for a new theme, installed them in the correct place and chose the theme, but when I do, absolutely *nothing* shows up.
I have a regular index.html page in the root directory right now, but when I disable it to have the WP files take over, I literally get a blank page with no content, no code or anything.
Can anyone tell me what that means? what is the tool grabbing instead of my template files?

I've made updates to my shop on spreadshirt after i installed the plugin and they will not update on my personal blog. Please help. What won't it update?
http://www.burghlife.com (burgh tees is the page)
I've made updates to my shop on spreadshirt after i installed the plugin and they will not update on my personal blog. Please help. What won't it update?
http://www.burghlife.com (burgh tees is the page)
I am having this exact same problem. Changing my locale to "" from "us_US" made it refresh once, but it seems to be cacheing the location data after that. At first I had it set to "us_US" and it was working. Then I made some changes, it didn't update. I followed the note in the WP-Spreadplugin notes that said to remove my locale info from the shortcode on my WordPress page. Then it refreshed once and I haven't been able to get it to refresh again because I change it back to "us_US" and it still pulls up the old inventory before I made the first set of changes. So it is cacheing it somewhere... I just don't know where... Suggestions?
compared to
I have fixed my own problem. Here's the solution:
Here's my shortcode (with api and secret removed, obviously):
[spreadplugin shop_id="#####" shop_limit="20" shop_locale="" shop_api="*api*" shop_secret="*secret*" shop_category="" shop_source="com" shop_social="1"]
And here's the fix:
[spreadplugin shop_id="#####" shop_limit="4" shop_locale="" shop_api="*api*" shop_secret="*secret*" shop_category="" shop_source="com" shop_social="1"]
IE: Change the "shop_limit=" in your shortcode and it will re-cache the data that it displays. Would also be a good idea to optimize this setting for your own page layout anyway.
the spreadplugin don't uses any cache. Only spreadshirt uses chaching and your browser does. Because of the spreadshirt cache changes on articles may display after approx. 8 hours. That's horrible but it's not a plugins' fault.
Changing the display limit of the articles, won't cause the spreadshirt cache to refresh - just your browser.
Your articles seem to be updated now.
Hope this helps.
If you've any questions don't hesitate to ask :)
So: The caching does seem to be on Spreadshirt's end of things, not in the plugin or WordPress. The refresh time seems to be anywhere from 10 minutes to 1 hour so far. While that's not perfect, it is confusing that you can view the shop directly at yourshop.spreadshirt.com and it will differ from what the API will give you. Though also not your problem with this plugin. :)
Secondly: The plugin seems to be displaying some articles twice, though only those articles that are in a category on Spreadshirt. I have some articles that aren't in a category and aren't duplicated, but every piece of clothing that I've put into a category is now shown twice on my WP plugin. Suggestions?
Yes, yourshop.spreadshirt.com and the api are different, so the api isn't synchronised at the same time.
To your second "problem" I can't see twice articles?!?
It isn't displaying them right next to each other, it is displaying first all articles, then all articles in the next category, then all articles in the next category, etc etc. I only have 32 different articles in my shop, yet the plugin is displaying 63 (one article isn't in a category, so it is only displayed once).
Do a search for any article name on that page and you will see it more than once.
Also: Changing the "shop_limit" *does* cause the plugin to refresh the shop. I tested this by making two pages of the same shop, updating one item in the shop, then updating the "shop_limit" on one page but not the other. One page then showed the updated item, the other page did not.
Please send me you spreadplugin code by e-mail. Please don't post it here, because of security :)
I am still having the same problem. The first article that display is blank and not even on my spreadshirt site.
You can see the shop here at http://www.burghlife.com/burgh-tees
Doesn't match the http://www.burghlife.spreadshirt.com shop
What do i need to do? It's been 4 days now and it hasn't updated correctly.
do you mean your "BurghLife Fade" shirts?
send me your spreadplugin code by email
Yes. I'll send you the code here shortly. Thank you.
where is your email?
please use the form at http://www.pr3ss-play.de thanks
(i didn't get the notify of new Posts :()
Hi BurghLifePittsburgh,
can I help you with the plugin or did you gave up using it? :(
My website products won't update, though my spreadshirt shop shows the articles updated. Please advise
Hi ryanbataille,
It shows old articles
Please go to the settings page in the admin panel of the plugin and click "Clear cache".
This should help :)
Unfortunately, I've already done that and it didn't resolve the issue. I've unistalled/reinstalled several times as well. I'm out of ideas.
Update: This issue resolved itself after my last reinstall. i had to wait approximately 9 hrs for the shirt to update after changing my shop
right, spreadshirt has such a api-refresh time :(
it takes approx. 8 hours to the api to refresh, then you can clear the cache of my plugin to reload the shop content. I'm sorry of that, but it's spreadshirts' thing..
No problem, I'm just glad I figured it out. It was driving me crazy. Thanks for the app.

Minnesota Family and Medical Leave
Minnesota employees have the right to take time off under both the federal FMLA and state leave laws.
Like employers in every state, Minnesota employers must follow the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), which allows eligible employees to take unpaid leave for certain reasons. Once an employee's FMLA leave is over, the employee has the right to be reinstated to his or her position.
Minnesota laws also give employees additional leave rights, as explained below. Employees are entitled to the protections of all applicable laws; if more than one law applies, the employee may use the most beneficial provisions.
Federal FMLA Rights
Employees in Minnesota who are eligible may take up to 12 weeks of leave for serious health conditions, bonding with a new child, or preparation for a family member's military service; more leave is available for employees who need to care for a family member who was seriously injured on active military duty. For detailed information on FMLA leave, see Taking Family and Medical Leave.
Who Is Covered?
Minnesota employers are subject to the FMLA if they have at least 50 employees for at least 20 weeks in the current or previous year.
Employees are eligible for FMLA leave if:
- they have worked for the company for at least a year
- they worked at least 1,250 hours during the previous year, and
- they work at a location with at least 50 employees within a 75-mile radius.
Reasons for Leave
FMLA leave is available if an employee needs time off to:
- recuperate from a serious health condition
- care for a family member with a serious health condition
- bond with a new child
- handle qualifying exigencies arising out of a family member's military service, or
- care for a family member who suffered a serious injury during active duty in the military. (You can find more information on these last two types of leave in Military Family Leave for Employees.)
How Much Leave Is Available?
Minnesota employees may take up to 12 weeks of leave in a 12-month period for a serious health condition, bonding with a new child, or qualifying exigencies. This leave is available every 12 months, as long as the employee continues to meet the eligibility requirements explained above.
Employees may take up to 26 weeks of leave in a single 12-month period for military caregiver leave. However, this is a per-injury, per-service member entitlement. Unless the same family member is injured again, or another family member suffers an injury while on active duty, an employee may not take additional leave for this purpose.
Leave and Reinstatement Rights
Employees are entitled to continue their health insurance while on leave, at the same cost they must pay while working. FMLA leave is unpaid, but employees may be allowed (or required) to use their accrued paid leave during FMLA leave.
When an employee's FMLA leave ends, the employee is entitled to be reinstated to the same or an equivalent position, with a few exceptions.
Minnesota Family and Medical Leave Laws
In addition to the rights granted by the FMLA, Minnesota employees have the right, under state law, to take time off for family and medical reasons.
Minnesota Family and Medical Leave
Employers with at least 21 employees must allow eligible employees to take up to twelve weeks off for prenatal care, pregnancy, childbirth, and bonding with a new child. Bonding leave is available to biological and adoptive parents, but must be taken within 12 months of the child's birth or adoption. To be eligible for leave, the employee must have worked at least half-time for the employer for 12 months prior to the request for leave.
Military Family Leave in Minnesota
All employers must give time off to eligible employees who have a grandparent, parent, legal guardian, sibling, child, grandchild, spouse, or fiancé on active duty in these circumstances:
- Employees are entitled to take time off to attend a send-off or homecoming ceremony for the family member. Employees may take only the time necessary for the ceremony, up to one day per calendar year.
- Employees may take up to ten days off if a family member is injured or killed in active military service.
Minnesota Small Necessities Law
Employers with at least two employees must give eligible employees up to 16 hours of unpaid leave in any 12-month period to attend school conferences or other school-related activities for the employee's child, if they cannot be rescheduled outside of work. Employers with 20 or more employees must provide up to 40 hours of paid leave to donate bone marrow.
For More Information
You can get more information on these laws at the website of the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry.

I have just upgraded to V3.5 and suddenly SEO isn't working. Everything else seems to work. I have looked through the threads and tried going through the troubleshooting but no use. The plugin shows up on the editing page but just the bar. There is an option to open the drop down box but it doesn't work. I have also tried to re-install both. I did not back it up. Rookie mistake.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I am not getting an RSS/atom on my site http://heathmcconnell.com
If I try to look at the RSS/atom feed i get errors.
The feed validator says it is:
This feed does not validate.
line 1, column 0: XML parsing error: <unknown>:1:0: no element found [help]
Source: http://www.heathmcconnell.com/feed/atom/
I have deactivated all plugin and tried the default theme, but the problem is still there.
I have no idea where to find the actual feed file to check "line 1, column 0".
I am using feedburner and feedsmith also, but they say there is an error. They were working fine.
I have searched the net for days for the answer. I have found lots of the same questions, but never answers that pertain to MY situation.
Thank you so much to anyone that offers some solid guidance.
any ideas?
Also, for info. I have my install in a subfolder and the index.php in the root, which has always worked fine.

She lectured me on coping with pain, said I need faith in my doctor, & insisted she helps traumatized women. I think she was traumatized that she messed me up & didn't know what to do or was too lazy to take the time to do it right - we with EDS need a little extra effort). After she removed the second group of stitches (EDSers have trouble healing), she refused to look when I asked her about the pain & lumpiness. She told me it was "normal" & I shouldn't rub it. She literally turned her back on me, walked away. Neither she nor her mother (I was hoping a little more experience . . . ) are willing to even look. She took my cash, messed me up, blamed my connective tissue disorder, & turned her back. If your body is anything other than perfectly normal, I would stay far away from this woman. She will only do what is easy for her, no patience for anything else. And she will happily take your money & then blame you for her failure. I am in worse shape than ever, and now need to find someone to figure out what she did to my mutated collagen & try to get it fixed. She has zero compassion other than her fixed sentences she uses. Anything out of the normal, steer clear. Anyone with EDS, don't even think of her. She'll take your money, mess you up, blame you for upsetting her schedule, & walk away. Literally.

Businessman pleads guilty to claiming to be blind to get disability payments
A Greendale business owner has pleaded guilty to collecting benefits by fraudulently claiming he was blind.
Lawrence Popp, 58, is scheduled to be sentenced by U.S. District Judge Rudolph Randa on Oct. 29.
According to the indictment, Popp illicitly collected $175,000 in disability payments as well as $115,000 in Medicare benefits between 2004 and 2009. In addition, he reportedly evaded taxes totaling about $178,000.
He has been operating several businesses and making hundreds of thousands of dollars, spending on lavish items such as a $25,000 diamond and emerald necklace for his wife, a recently released affidavit for a search warrant states.
Federal agents caught him on video in 2008 driving to a meeting at the Social Security office in Greenfield. He parked his car several blocks away and walked to the office. Popp said repeatedly and signed a statement vowing he had not driven a car.
U.S. Attorney James Santelle said in a statement: "The programmatic and fiscal integrity of the Social Security Administration's programs is compromised significantly - to the detriment of legitimate beneficiaries - when individuals engage in purposeful fraud of this and other types. The knowing misapplication of welfare benefit plans, pursued to evade the payment of income taxes, aggravates the abuse and has a quantifiable impact upon all Americans."
Investigators said Popp was laundering money from one of his companies, Refrigerated Equipment Distributors Co., through a "sister" business, Commercial Sales Agency.
In a wiretapped phone conversation in 2009 with his ex-wife, Kimberly Popp, Lawrence Popp said he sold his distributing company for $700,000 and did not disclose the proceeds to the Social Security Administration. He also said he paid $2,000 a month for a membership to the Milwaukee Athletic Club.
Kimberly Popp told investigators the couple vacationed regularly in the Cayman Islands and that Lawrence Popp had opened a bank account there. That's where he bought her the diamond necklace, she said. The couple divorced in 2007.

I have it on my list of what to see during the Festival--near the bottom. Its premise sounds congenial enough, but that title has obviously been conceived to inspire double-takes. Then one day I check my pressroom mailbox and find a postcard-size ad for the film. Therein lies an even bigger attention grabber: "Martin Scorsese cordially invites you..." Scorsese is, essentially, "presenting" the project, meaning he has no financial stake in it. He has granted the use of his name on this "invitation" as a favour to NYU grad and Student Academy Award winner Kevin Jordan. My colleague Chris and I attended a press and industry screening last Friday afternoon. The way a press and industry screening works during the Toronto International Film Festival (T.I.F.F.): you show up, you present the appropriate ID, and if you're with the media you must sign in before entering the theatre. It's so painless that no one ever feels guilty for leaving before the movie has finished. I've seen TV critics take off on a picture fifteen minutes in and...

This is a recently-posted music video I animated and edited for The Rioting Pants, my brother's band; linking it because it's seasonally fitting, a kind of monster rally inspired by "Scooby-Doo" as well as those Hanna-Barbera videos that used to clog the gaps between Saturday-morning cartoons.

I let out a breath and wondered how long I'd held it. I listened to the lap of water and the air and the spaces inside my head. I took my shoes off. I waded a little way in and schools of fry shoaled away from my feet in black clouds. The water? Frigid. Snow run-off. I could see the white of it, dotting the peaks around me, even now in early September where, still five hours away, it was over 90° in the shade--the last gasps of Colorado's brutal Indian summer. So I let out a breath and take in another one. There are impossible spaces in the world. I too rarely leave the possible for the impossible. The trip home is always faster, so I resolved this year to stop somewhere and take a second to reflect. It's stupid and embarrassing to say that I don't stop enough to smell the flowers, but I don't....

It's somewhere between my shoulder blades. My head clears. I find myself stopping more this year than I have in years past. I pull off onto more scenic overlooks. I push my teeth into the journey. It's like there's been something coiled, black, and it goes away after winding itself up in the time from one festival to the next. Every turn in the road solves some curve in a rope puzzle. They know every labyrinthine furrow and unravel it like a clever clockwork, clicking in opposition. Everything starts to look different. Things smell different, taking on a cast of petrichor and hiraeth. That shortness of breath owes itself to something other than just the extreme altitude. It's hard to explain. I don't understand it completely. But coming to Telluride is the best thing that I do for myself every year. And here I am again. It's not about the movies. I'll watch nine or ten over the next three days but that's not why I come. The new Charlie Kaufman movie is here and, yes, I'm very excited to see it, but I'll...

I had flown into Riverside, where my sister and her husband live. A lifetime of living in Colorado made me confused when a mountain range right outside the airport indicated east rather than west. It was hot. It was February. I was in town for four days, there at the request and by the good graces of Steve De Jarnatt, writer-director of Miracle Mile, about which I had published a monograph in 2012. The plan was that I would record a commentary track with him for his feature debut, Cherry 2000, on my second day--and one for Miracle Mile on the third. In the downtime between, I had made plans to meet with filmmaker Walter Hill for a book I'm writing on his career. I also wanted to spend time with my sister and brother-in-law, have breakfast with a dear friend, and, maybe if I had a minute, swing by the actual Miracle Mile and do a pilgrimage-to-Mecca...

But since Sadowski and I haven't kept in touch in the nine (!) years since that interview, and since new Canadian films and filmmakers never get enough attention, least of all from me, a few words about his fiction-feature debut, Pretend We're Kissing, which has actually become something of a minor sensation in its city of origin by outlasting its indie-release lifespan at the Carlton in Toronto. (It's currently wrapping up its third week there.) I will be as objective as I know how. This is a beautifully-photographed movie. I mean it. When I asked Matt for a streaming link, he was disappointed I wasn't screening it theatrically. "The film is pretty much all wide shots," he said. He wasn't kidding.

Alot of wine and dine before the sale then after the sale when the products were not working they bailed leaving me with the only option to file bankruptcy or kill my what was neer perfect credit. I am obligated to repay the remainder of the $209.000.00 even tho I have no business to show for it other than the proiducts and services I have found on my own which I could have done with out the big price tag. It ruined several years of my marrage, my trust in people, my prior business neer perfect credit after 15 yrs, and there is no way he can ever repay the damage my family has suffered as a result of his evil greed to porposefully fraudulently steal peoples hard work and dreams.

Can anyone tell me the actual cost of the Ferry to Helsinki from Tallinn in Estonia. We are thinking of doing a day trip, leaving early and returning late to Tallinn. Is this a dumb idea with the 4 hour ferry ride? We will be in Tallinn in a week.
Hi Thorn Tree folks
I've been living in Helsinki for 10 years and I would like share few hints about Helsinki. You can ask more later.
The most common question from me foreign friends is what is there to do and see in Helsinki?
Well the answer is a lot, few examples:

We arrive in Helsinki from St. Petersburg at 2 p.m. on a Friday and leave Saturday morning. As I have an early flight out, we would like to stay near the train station where we arrive and where we can catch the train to the airport. Can someone recommend a 4 star or so hotel within walking distance of the train station which is also walking distance to sights. I know our time is limited, but what can we do in an afternoon and night in Helsinki? We would like to have dinner in a "typical"…
I would love to trek in Finland for a few days. I was wondering, what are the differences between trekking in Urho Kekkonen National Park vs. Oulanka National Park?
Is it worth it to spend more time and money to get up to Lapland to trek, or is the experience pretty similar?
Also, if there's anyone who would also like to trek at the beginning of August, please let me know.
Thanks in advance!
We will be returning from Tallinn by ferry to Helsinki, (in August) and I need to know the travel time between
the ferry port and Helsinki airport, as I hope to sail back and go straight to the airport to board our
outbound flight. I'm sure there must be a direct rail link from the ferry port to the airport but everything
I have seen on other sites is old information, like from 2009. Can someone please give me current
information? Then I know which return ferry to book our tickets on. Thanks so…

The federal workforce should not get automatic pay increases when the American people as a whole are not, argues Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.)
Hours before the highly publicized vote on the fiscal cliff, the House passed another measure on Jan. 1 that would have kept federal employees' pay frozen. Lawmakers backed the Congressional Pay Freeze and Fiscal Responsibility Act (H.R. 6726), which would prohibit a 2013 pay adjustment for federal employees and members of Congress, as called for by President Obama in a Dec. 27 executive order. The measure passed 287 to 129.
The increases are safe for now, at least, as the Senate adjourned on Jan. 2 without taking up the measure. The 113th Congress convenes on Jan. 3, which means new legislation would have to be introduced to override Obama's executive order. But given the continued efforts by several legislators to keep federal pay frozen, another attempt in 2013 is hardly out of the question.
The pending pay raise could cost taxpayers $11 billion over the next decade, according to Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), chairman of the Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
In the debate over H.R. 6726 on Jan. 1, Issa stressed that it would not stop step increases, merit increases or many other routine ways federal employees can increase their pay. "But it will say that, at this time, when the American people are not getting automatic cost-of-living increases, neither should the federal workforce," he said.
However, many House Democrats opposed the measure, saying government employees have done their part in saving the government money.
"Federal workers not only have borne a disproportionate share of the cost, they've virtually borne the only share of the cost," Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.) said.
And for what it's worth, members of Congress have already denied themselves a cost of living adjustment for 2013. The American Taxpayer Relief Act, better known as the bill that averted the fiscal cliff and which passed Congress Jan. 1, stops any increases for the lawmakers.

Despite GSA's efforts to accelerate the FedRAMP approval process, the lack of agency reciprocity puts the program's central goals at risk.
Got some early-career colleagues who are doing great things in federal IT? Nominate them for FCW's 2016 Rising Star awards.
The agency software inventories required under the draft category management policy will be treasure maps that lead to efficient, effective, streamlined buying and unprecedented savings.
As experts warned of the "dire" threats posed by outdated federal technology, lawmakers grilled top feds, debated workforce issues and inched closer to backing a $3.1 billion fix-it fund.
The agency is making strides in developing and deploying border technologies but still has some weaknesses.
Federal employees deserve a cost of living raise, at present with the returning veteran most of the employees woked 10-12 hours days without additional pay. There are many complaints about the veterans not getting the care they need, it will be worse as employees leave to seek employment at different institutions. It is hard to have the gifted and talent nurses and physicians, we have today but with no increase in pay to maintain current with the cost of gas and food, they will not remain. Think about it they are not under contract and can leave when ever they want.
This is a joke. People getting pay raises when many still have no jobs. Texas has not given across the board pay increases to state employees for six years, well before the economy tanked.
Issa and the GOP are not going to be satisfied until Federal Employment is so unattractive to talented job seekers, that the only people the government will be able to hire will be the people that McDonalds and WalMart rejected.
Seems interesting that politicians are quite at their ready to "give" our tax money to things like cash for clunkers, bailout GM, and stuff like that. But they won't give raises to federal workers, who would in turn spend that money to help ignite the ecconomy. Instead, they have the federal workers shouldering the burden of horrible budget management by this current regime we call a presidency. An ironic concept.
