As WP 3.5 changes a lot of things in galleries management, will File Gallery be compatible ?
As WP 3.5 changes a lot of things in galleries management, will File Gallery be compatible ?
Thanks for asking, @Li-An - I hope I'll be able to release a WP3.5-compatible version before 3.5 final comes out.
A lot of things have been changed in the media management visual interfaces, but the underlying system is still pretty much the same.
I just have to figure out how to reconnect File Gallery and tinyMCE, everything else looks OK (I've also converted attachment custom fields into a metabox on attachment editing screens). As far as I can tell, a lot of JavaScript stuff in the media management area has been converted to Backbone views and Underscore, and I'm really not familiar with those two. But I'm hoping it won't be too difficult :)
Thank you for these informations. I hope you will manage it as File Gallery is one of my favorites plugins :-)
Hi Aesqe,
I am testing the current 3.5-RC1-22913 build, and unfortunately some things are broken.
- When the File Gallery plugin is active, uploads made through the WP uploader fail ("An error occurred in the upload. Please try again later.").
- In the new uploader interface, the "Media Library" panel shows nothing.
Those issues don't appear when the File Gallery is disabled, so there has to be some conflict somewhere.
That's unfortunate, because the File Gallery plugin would be a solution for one feature that has been removed from the WP uploader: being able to change the order of attached files.
I would love to see 3.5 support and have some ideas on this front.
I am not experiencing the issues described above using RC3.
the new media modals are great in many ways but i am already missing the features file gallery brought to the table whilst using the current RC.
the 'attach all checked to post' functionality, duplicate filtering etc.
have been having a nose at the new Backbone setup, and whilst not familiar with these libraries they look to be fairly extensible.
would love to help with development if can either with code contribution or just beta-testing. Let me know if i can help support this great plugin.
Good news: I just tested File Gallery, with the current 3.5-RC3-23093, and the issues described above disappeared, it's working fine again.
just FYI: there's a couple things that don't quite work in 3.5 (attachment custom fields on single media item page, for example), so I'll be releasing an update today.
v1.7.6 is out, please test with WordPress 3.5 - thank you! :)
Nope, the issue still appears. :(
I saw only one problem with 1.7.6 and WP 3.5: I cannot upload files directly in File Gallery zone. It blinks - on a test blog, no other plugin, default theme.
@Li-An: yeah, I've noticed :/ will fix it for v1.7.8
Hello - been using FG for years now. How can i attach all checked images to the post without inserting them into the post text? I've always avoided using the short code in the text area.
best, Dan.
Any news of progress on 1.7.8?
I love FG, but the latest WordPress update has really screwed with it. I have huge numbers of duplicate images showing on the Insert Media page -most of them seem to be (virtual?)copies made by FG to attach to multiple posts. I can't see any way of identifying which was the original version as they all have the same file name.
Ever since the latest WP update I've not been able to work out how to get FG to attach an image to a post, apart from as jynk mentioned above, having to actually insert the html into the post first. In many ways, it looks like FG may be redundant :( However, if I disable and remove it I'm concerned about the impact on my existing posts.
As I said, I love FG andt I do like being able to easily see what images are attached to any given post, so I'm not ready to give up on it yet! Keep up the good work!
There will be no impact on existing posts if you disable FG - If you are afraid of doing so, just save your database before desactivating it.
Thanks Li-An, I'm hoping Bruno will post an update soon. It looks like a big change, so I understand it'll take a while to sort out.
Unfortunately it seems that even if you add existing images to a post and save it, this still will not attach those images to that post.
Since the WordPress update, I have not found any way to attach existing images to a post, which is the main reason why I use this plugin.
Has anyone else?
I too hope there is an update being worked on to rectify this as File Gallery was the only plugin available with this extremely handy feature and I miss it already!
i have been working on a solution for the attachment issue and am making progress, in the meantime inserting the following in your themes function file should remove all the FG duplicates from the new insert dialog.
remove_action( 'wp_ajax_query-attachments', 'wp_ajax_query_attachments', 1 );
add_action( 'wp_ajax_query-attachments', 'my_ajax_query_attachments', 1 );
$attach_parent = null;
function my_ajax_query_attachments(){
global $attach_parent;
$query = isset( $_REQUEST['query'] ) ? (array) $_REQUEST['query'] : array();
$query = array_intersect_key( $query, array_flip( array(
's', 'order', 'orderby', 'posts_per_page', 'paged', 'post_mime_type',
'post_parent', 'post__in', 'post__not_in',
) ) );
$query['post_type'] = 'attachment';
$query['post_status'] = 'inherit';
if ( current_user_can( get_post_type_object( 'attachment' )->cap->read_private_posts ) )
$query['post_status'] .= ',private';
$attach_parent = $_REQUEST['post_id'];
add_filter('posts_where', 'filter_duplicate_attachments');
$query = new WP_Query( $query );
remove_filter('posts_where', 'filter_duplicate_attachments');
$attach_parent = null;
$posts = array_map( 'wp_prepare_attachment_for_js', $query->posts );
$posts = array_filter( $posts );
wp_send_json_success( $posts );
function filter_duplicate_attachments($input) {
global $post, $attach_parent;
if (!empty($attach_parent)){
$input .= " AND ((wp_posts.ID NOT IN ( SELECT ID FROM wp_posts AS ps INNER JOIN wp_postmeta AS pm ON pm.post_id = ps.ID WHERE pm.meta_key = '_is_copy_of' )) OR (wp_posts.post_parent=". $attach_parent ."))";
return $input;
hope this helps some of you.
Has anyone got a reply on how to inserd images with FG since 3.5?
Well, we are still waiting for the update. Aesqe may have a lot of other things to do I suppose...
I thought I'd bump this. Has anybody any news on File Gallery?
I love File Gallery, but I have areas in my sites that are reliant on it that could do with updating.
I don't mind waiting if an updated version is going to be produced, but if one isn't then I need to move on. Not knowing is a nuisance.
@pheonixgh how do you use your code to fix the duplicate images in the insert dialogue? ie where do I place the code?
You need to add the given code to your themes functions.php file.
I have the same problem @jynk...
I need to attach an image to multiple posts
When released the new version of the plugin?
I'll be posting dev updates on GitHub from now on, to speed things up.
here's the link: https://github.com/aesqe/file-gallery
current version is 1.7.8-beta1 and it's a first step to better WP 3.5 integration.
I've managed to add the "Attach checked attachments to current post" button to the new media browser, so please test it out.
For now, there is no visual clue if everything went fine or not other than the selection being cleared.
The button disappears when attachment filter is set to files uploaded to current post, of course.
let me know if it works or not for you.
thanks! :)
the beta version available on GitHub seems to duplicate the files already uploaded into the media library. so you can select any file from it and attach it to different posts but each time it's been duplicated. or at least this is what happens to me...
the beta version available on GitHub seems does not update automatically when when you attach a picture to the Filegallery box from media library.
@christian70: I'll add filtering of attachment copies soon, @pheonixgh's solution looks good :)
@mamastudios: latest beta on github should have that fixed - please test it out!
@Aesqe Hoping you can update to remove the duplicate media entries soon. Great plugin, and thanks for your work on it.
@Aesque, I'm using the current beta from github and @mamastudios issue doesn't appear to be fixed. I have to click "Refresh attachments" after closing the media editor. Could be related to the undefined id issue I posted to github?
submitted a pull request for my duplicate filtering with an added visual indicator on attached items.

- ■ Energy attorney
- ■ Head supervisor of pollution control
- ■ Supervisor of air pollution control
- ■ Supervisor of dust and particulate pollution control
- ■ Supervisor of water pollution control
- ■ Supervisor of noise- and vibration-related pollution control
- ■ Special managing supervisor in charge of industrial waste disposal
- ■ Eco Test
- ■ 3Rs & Low-Carbon Society Test
- ■ Environmental Planner
- ■ Eco leader
Environmental Education Structure
Number of Employees Receiving Environmental Education
(Non-consolidated Unit: person(s))
|FY March 2011
|FY March 2012
|FY March 2013
|FY March 2014
|FY March 2015
|Section managers
|New employees
* In addition to the above, environmental education is provided to general employees in each department.
Routine Environmental Activities
Reducing Paper Use
Mazda continually makes bold efforts to considerably reduce the amount of paper used for office work through the digitization of documents, ledger sheets, and other forms, as well as through the use of projectors and monitors at meetings, etc. As part of its recycling efforts, the Company also reuses waste paper (shredder dust) as packaging material for shipping parts, and is increasing efforts to separate the collection of waste paper by type during disposal.
Reducing Energy Use
Through regular initiatives, including purchasing of low power-consumption office equipment and furniture, and turning off lights and computers when they are not in use, Mazda makes continual efforts to reduce energy use.
Furthermore, Mazda implements a "Cool Biz" program during the summer season every year, setting internal room temperatures at 28°C (82.4°F) on a standard basis.
During the winter season when electricity consumption is particularly high, energy-saving measures are implemented through adjustment of air conditioning systems (heating set at 20°C, or 68°F), lighting, office automation equipment, etc.
Use of Renewable Energy
Mazda uses renewable energy sources*1 as follows.
- ■ At the Hofu Plant, solar-powered units have been introduced in some corridor lighting.
- ■ A solar power system is installed on the roof of the radio wave experiment building of the Miyoshi Office. The amount of electricity generated by the system in FY March 2015 was 13.6 MWh. Electricity generated by this system is used to provide power and lighting for the building, thereby continuously contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissions.
- ■ Mazda supplied green electricity to illuminate the night games of the Mazda All-Star Games 2014 (presented by Japan's 12 professional baseball teams), of which Mazda was the main sponsor. The green electricity was provided using the Tradable Green Certificates System.
- ■ Following last fiscal year, Mazda de Mexico Vehicle Operation (MMVO) in Mexico installed outdoor solar lighting, thereby promoting an effective use of renewable energy*1 that uses solar power and LEDs.
In FY March 2015, MMVO installed 80 units. Combined with the number of units installed last fiscal year, the total reached 326, generating power of 57.1 MWh for lighting.
*1 Refers to natural energy sources that can be used continuously without being depleted, such as electricity generation using solar, wind, geothermal, hydroelectric or biomass power, or direct solar heating. These types of energy generate zero or negligible CO2 emissions.
Environment-Related Accident Emergency Drill and Prevention Campaign
Emergency Drill to Prevent Marine Pollution
An emergency drill was carried out based on assumption simulation that hydraulic oil had spilled from a vessel in the harbor. In the drill, with the participation of about 60 employees from Mazda Motor Corporation, Mazda Ace, and Mazda Logistics, the effectiveness of operations for removing an oil spillage, as well as the emergency contact system were checked and confirmed (in July 2015). This drill was launched in FY March 2015. This year, officers of Hiroshima Coast Guard Office observed and gave feed backs about the drill. They also demonstrated water discharge of oil diffusion using patrol boat Mazda will conduct drills on a regular basis to improve its emergency response capabilities.
Campaign for Oil Spill Prevention and Traffic Safety
Around 50 employees from Mazda Motor Corporation, Mazda Logistics, and several truckload transportation companies helped promoting environmental protection and improving traffic safety, distributing leaflets to raise the awareness of delivery truck drivers and others about the importance of preventing oil spills on the roads and traffic safety in general (in June 2015). The campaign has been conducted every year since FY March 2011.

Thanks for the suggestion.
- The test database is only created at the start of the test run, not at the start of every test.
- We need to have a guaranteed clean test environment for each test run, and the easiest way to do this is to create a new test database each time.
If you think you have a faster way to run the tests, the onus is on you to prove it! You can do this by providing a patch (either a fully worked patch, or a proof-of-concept patch) with timings showing what the speedup would be, and what unexpected consequences of your approach exist (if any).
comment:2 Changed 2 years ago by shai
There can be reasons to use an existing "database" -- for example, on PostgreSQL and Oracle this allows one to control the tablespace to be used by the tests. In fact, on Oracle this is already supported (Oracle does not have databases in the sense of PostgreSQL, and the relevant settings actually refer to tablespaces), and I think supporting it on Postgres too is a good idea.
However, even under these circumstances, it is usually desirable to use a new "schema" in the database; and it is the generation of objects in this schema that takes most of the time in creating and dropping test databases. So, testing speed should not change significantly.
On MySQL, "schema" is synonymous with "database", and the concept of "tablespace" only exists for specific (cluster) storage types, so this doesn't make much sense anyway.

To whom it may concern:
I would like to request compensation for the costs incured for when I was stranded in the United States for almost a week as my 2006 KIA would not start and KIA US could not fix it and KIA Canada gave me false information. . The story is very long so I will list the events in point form.
Monday Oct 8th - Misplaced car key in Plattsburg, NY. (Bank St. Kia Ottawa only ever gave me one key). Called roadside assist they advised that I call a locksmith,as KIA Canada was closed for Thanksgiving and could not assist with codes etc. Locksmith was able to access car and cut key (approx $60). Car would not start because of immobilizer. Roadside assist advised that I would need a Canadian key in order to start the car. I caught a bus to Montreal (approx $80), then rented a car to go to Ottawa. I arrived at my home at 1am. (approx $300)
Tuesday Oct 9th
Went to Bank St Kia, Ottawa. They cut 2 keys for me. They insisted that all I needed was for the locksmith to program the keys and I would be on my way. They were so confident that they said I would not need a back up plan, as it would definately work. I drove back to Monteal to return rental car, then cought bus to Plattsburgh, NY (Approx $20). I was met by locksmith at about 8pm. He could not program the key. His machine would not communicate with the key. It was now late so I checked into a hotel (approx $140)
Wednesday Oct 10th
Called Durocher KIA in Plattsburgh. They advised me to tow the car to them (covered by policy) and they would start the car no problem. They worked on the car all day and they also could not start it. Also, the locksmith came by and we were in contact with an elite locksmith from Ottawa who also could not help start it, even using the 'limp home' technique. Advised by KIA Canada to either change all locks on vehicle (very expensive) or wait for a programing machine to be sent from California. It would take a week!! I called roadside assist about towing the vehicle to Canada. They quoted the cost at $500 ($200 to go to the border, the $300 for Canadian company to tow from the border to the dealer, as US tow trucks won't cross the borde)r. I called a company in Montreal and they were willing to cross the border and back for approx $330. I went back to hotel ($120), plus meals both nights ($80).
Thursday Oct 11th
Tow truck towed vehicle to Montreal. They worked on it all afternoon and finally started it at the end of the day. I stayed at my cousin's house that night and got home on Friday.
Friday Oct 12th.
Arrived home. My cell phone bill for roaming cell phone call to and from Kia was over 200$ on top of my bill.
Now Only one key can be programmed. KIA Bank St Ottawa refuse to look at it unless I agree to foot the bill for their locksmith should he run into problems and take all day to fix it. Given the history of the car I don't want to take that risk.
Although I take full responsibility for misplacing the key, I was advised by KIA that if I got another key cut in Canada that the problem would be solved, which I did. Even though you say the car was mechanically sound, it wasnt! I had a car and a key and it would not start. The transponder is an integral part of the car, just like the transmission. I was within the policy's service area (Canada and continental USA) and the mechanics could not start the car. I don't feel I was at fault at this point. I spoke to 4 KIA dealers and not one of them knew about the US/ Canada KIA incompatabiltiy problem. I also incurred a lot of costs using my cell phone internationally and missed a week of work. It was an extremely stressful week and I believe I should be compensated. I certainly will not buy nor recommend Kia should I not find some restitution.
The car is still covered by five star coverage, but they take no responsibility either.

San Francisco (CA) - During Microsoft's Game Developer's Conference keynote this morning, one idea shone through higher than all else - the push to bring Xbox 360 development to everyone.
The first part of the presentation was pretty much all fluff, but once Microsoft began talking about XNA and its push to bring the platform to virtually everyone, the exciting announcements began. XNA is the company's software development kit for video game programming.
GDC 2008 H.264 Video of Microsoft's Community Games announcement
Microsoft made the comment that video games are becoming part of the YouTube generation. In fact, the Xbox 360 is practically competing with YouTube. One of the more popular features in Halo 3 is the ability to record and save video clips in the game. According to Microsoft, more than 100,000 pieces of user-generated content are uploaded from Halo 3 every day. That's 30% more daily uploads than YouTube.
Additionally, there is an increasing market for games made by gamers for gamers. We've seen this with the PS3's Playstation Store, Nintendo's upcoming WiiWare platform, and of course Microsoft's Xbox Live Arcade. To make it on any of these platforms, though, there are still overhead, licensing, and other production costs. You still "need to know somebody" to get your game on these "indie-friendly" services.
Last year, Microsoft ran a contest called "Dream, Build, Play," a self-described American Idol for budding Xbox 360 developers. It was open to every Xbox Live member, allowing them to submit a rough game idea in the hopes of actually appearing on the 360. Four finalists were given contracts to produce content on the Xbox Live Arcade.
The game demoed most extensively during today's keynote is called "Dishwasher," created by one of the winners of the "Dream, Build, Play" contest. It is a 2D hack-and-slash featuring a "crazy undead Samurai" as the main character. The game played just like any other classic fighting game from the pre-2000 era.
Today, Microsoft took that initiative one step further. It announced plans to launch a completely new community feature on Xbox Live that allows users to create their own "Creator's Club" profile, upload games they created, and open them to review from other aspiring game makers. These titles may then ultimately end up available for all Xbox 360 users.
GDC 2008 H.264 Video - Microsoft also announces XNA mobile games for Zune
The software giant says that this initiative, called "Xbox Live Community Games", will eventually count for half of the total number of Xbox 360 games. Demo versions of a handful of these titles are available now on the Xbox Live Marketplace.
At GDC there is always talk from the console players about bringing opportunities to independent developers, but this is arguably the biggest such project to date.
Also today, Nintendo announced a launch date for its WiiWare service, which will open up the console for small-scale development projects. Additionally, since before the Wii was released, Nintendo has raised its flag the highest when it comes to trying to appeal to independent developers. It will be interesting to see how XBL Community Games interferes with that.

Ah, OK Republicans, NOW I Get It!
Ok, so let me get this straight.
"Obamacare" is the law.
President Obama was re-elected, with everyone knowing he was going to keep Obamacare in place, so more people are OK with it than not.
Even many of those who aren't totally OK with it, just want it tweaked a bit.
The Supreme Court has said the law is constitutional.
BUT, House Republicans say "Hey, wait a minute. We were elected too, and our constituents have said they want us to take Obamacare OUT. So we are sticking to our guns, and we found a way to get you Democrats to listen to what OUR constituents say, and if you don't want to budge, and the government shuts down, well, that's on you. We're doing our DUTY to OUR constituents who have said NO to Obamacare."
I can understand that. Even sounds righteous.
Until you realize, that THESE are some of the constituents you speak of.

Maryland Gov. O'Malley Plans Trip to New Hampshire
Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, one of the Democrats mentioned as a possible White House hopeful in 2016, is heading back to New Hampshire this November to raise money for fellow Democrats in the first-in-the-nation primary state.
Mr. O'Malley is traveling to Manchester to headline the New Hampshire Democratic Party's annual Jefferson Jackson Dinner. The annual gathering gives prospective presidential candidates a chance to rub shoulders with influential activists and donors in the Granite State.

Republicans have been more aggressive in their pre-election posturing than their Democratic counterparts. This is Mr. O'Malley's first trip back to New Hampshire since last October when, as chairman of the Democratic Governors Association, he campaigned for President Barack Obama and Maggie Hassan, the Democrat who was elected governor.
The trip comes as Mr. O'Malley starts traveling more on behalf of other Democrats. In October, the Maryland governor will travel to Ohio, Florida and Texas to raise money for governor's races in each. His only other trip to a traditional early-voting state this year came back in March when he made a trip to South Carolina to keynote an event hosted by the state Democratic Party.
"Gov. O'Malley was thrilled to accept the New Hampshire Democratic Party's invitation to speak at their annual Jefferson Jackson Dinner," O'Malley spokeswoman Lis Smith said in a statement.

Prodigy: "DMX was our new 2Pac. When he came out, in people's minds, they probably didn't realize it, but in people's minds, they equated him with 2Pac. He had a similar look. He had a bald head, and he was wilding, from the hood. He brought that church, he would pray in songs and all that type of shit. You know how Pac was with the church and praying and all that? DMX reminded people of 2Pac, whether they realized it or not."

From New York City, as producers, their less is more approach to releasing records has made massive fans out of Sensu favourites Josh Wink, Dubfire, Loco Dice and Sebo K. As DJs, what sets them apart is their sense of flow and timing. Watch them behind the decks: they don't stop moving. Lean, lanky, all wrists and elbows and ear-to-ear grins, these kids look like they were born to move. They're practically climbing over each other as records flow together, one brother cueing up a track, the other EQing, the headphones passed back and forth, forearms intertwined, heads bobbing in unison. It's amazing to watch and it's even more amazing to hear.

Hi guys,
I've only recently started to use WordPress and so I've got about 3,000 news archives from my current site to copy and paste into my WordPress.
However I want to just go to the Write Post page and paste in the content as plain text, so it doesn't carry over any boldness or p align tags such as justify.
Is there a plugin or change in code for this? I appreciate there is a 'paste as plain text' button, but I would like this to be the default, while at the same time keeping a simple bar on the wysiwig to have a bold button and list items.
Can anyone help?

Skip to comments.Sarah Palin Challenges Romney's History Of Job Creation At Bain
Posted on 01/12/2012 7:26:31 AM PST by Laissez-faire capitalist
Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin challenged GOP presidential front-runner Mitt Romney to furnish his tax return and supporting documents that would prove he created the 100,000 jobs he claimed he did while CEO of Bain Capital.
"Governor Romney has claimed to have created 100,000 jobs at Bain and people are wanting to know is there proof of that claim and was it U.S. jobs created for United States citizens?" Palin told Fox News Sean Hannity.
Palin said that transparency was needed as Romney would likely be targeted by Democrats on this issue if he were to become the Republican nominee.
Watch the segment below [click on url link]
(Excerpt) Read more at theblaze.com ...
Washington Post: "Romney's Bain Figures Don't Add Up"
Biggovernment.com: "How Did Romney's 10,000 jobs become 100,000?"
Forbes.com. "So, Did Romnry Create 100,000 Jobs, Or Not?"
Forbes.com: "...three recent reports by the Los Angeles Times, the Associated Press and by Fact Check.org...say that the Romney campaign has yet to offer convincing proof to back up the claim."
While I gave a few examples, news sources from the left, the right, Libertarian news sources, far-left news sources, far-right news sources are all coming to the same conclusion: Romney is full of crap.
"Well.....we're waiting."
Boston.com: "Report: 'Romneycare' a jobs killer." University study rips Romneycare.
Uh, oh. There goes that pesky Sarah Palin, again, asking for the obvious.
Gov. Palin is making a valiant effort to stay relevant, but truth is, she had her chance and chickened out.
The Romney campaign's retort is to cite Staples, Sports Authority and Dominos.
Problem is, is that they intentionally leave out the job losses from other companies with which Bain was involved and the Romney campaign's tally is based on current figures, not the period when Romney worked at Bain.
Its called making a living. She gets paid for what she does.
Please, no deflections via ad hominem.
Focus on RINO Romney.
Thanks for the ping. I sent one your way yesterday. Hope you saw it.
Isn't it simply amazing that Sarah speaks a few simple words and changes the entire conversation? Nobody does it better.
Romney is to Bain and its "created" jobs what Kerry was to his Vietnam record and medals. You can get away with the false claims in local politics, but when you go national, the REAL data comes out.
Typical Rove Romneybot response.
If what Romney did at Bain was legal, fine.....but don't expect it to be a plus when running for President, and don't try to dress it up that way....he made money, great....good for him...I don't begrudge that, if it was legal, as maybe as unprincipled it may have been, but that's not my business....but him running for President IS my business.
You betcha! She's not for Romney.
So, Sarah's not gonna endorse him then?
By your logic, if we can call it that, the only relevant jobs on the planet are those of President and the six active candidates. Yeah, right.
Only 7 relevant human beings by your "logic." Try again.
Rove had a really stupid pro-Romney article in this morning's WSJ. I don't know why the GOP "leaders" are so in love with the guy.
Governor Palin.
Stop just opposing from the sidelines.
Get back in this thing.
The TRUTH is as I posted in my last post. When Sarah speaks, everyone listens. The shiv is stuck in romney now...where it should have been in the first place. Now ro twist it nd pour as much salt on it as we can.
He MUST NOT become our nominee.
I likely missed it. I'm on the FReepathon thread where I post the scoreboard and also a lot of huge graphics and huge graphics are posted to me, so I miss several pings to me.
So no one who's been in office or ran for office has the right to express an opinion on candidates? I see.
I was arguing this with another poster, and I completely agree with you. I liken it to Mr. Potter in "It's a Wonderful Life". He did everything legal, but he didn't win any popularity contests.
We also saw, in the "alternate" reality, what unbridled capitalism, minus the controls of a Judeo/Christian culture, will get you. Without God, capitalism is WORSE than Socialism. It is unbridled and raw atheist selfish greed. With God, it is the best economic system there is.
—Gov. Palin is making a valiant effort to stay relevant, but truth is, she had her chance and chickened out.—
That's one way of seeing it. I see it as choosing one's battles. Fools rush in.
Yes, she has come a long way.
Next she'll master complete sentences, with luck and effort.
Let him release his returns when obozo releases his transcripts
I don't know. I kind like this Newt/Sarah tag team thing ....works for me. lol.
Poor King Romney and his supporters are upset that he has been challenged. How DARE we, as Americans, question him?? How dare Newt cross that line ....
Sorry, as Newt says, the attacks go both ways!
Here's a hint: it's not Romney.
Rush gonna get u Palin. Better not challenge any of his "so called captialist buddies", esp. Romney.
Sarah Palin gets right to heart of the matter as always.
Have any of those news organizations done a fact check on Obammy's jobs created/saved number?
I bet I was possibly one of less than a dozen on FR that watched Larry the Cable Guy last night.
He had aaan Alaska special, part of it was visiting the palins in Wasilla.
I think I remember when it was filmed, the scene where Larry was getting cussed out by a driver that was pissed off because he was forced to drive behind the Larry convoy at the speed limit was funny, and quite true.
1.) I want Obama to release them, too, but bad behavior by Obama does not excuse bad behavior by Romney.
2.) Romney made his 100,000 jobs claim a centerpiece to his campaign and put that forward as making him highly electable.
Time for him to put up or shut up if he wants voters to believe in and go with 2.)

Their hypocrisy is equaled by Romney's obfuscation on his 100,00 jobs created claim.
"Sarah Palin Challenges Romney's History Of Job Creation At Bain Vulture Capital"
Uh-oh, Wassilio. Willard busted by the Sarahcuda!
I'm pretty sure the save number is a pretend number.
Typical "FReeper who does not know the posting history of someone he calls a Rove Romneybot" response.
Check my posting history: I LOATHE Rove.
Check my posting history: Romney is a statist gun-grabber. I will under no circumstances vote for Willard, even if it means 0bama is re-elected.
Read my posting history: I was a supporter of Gov Palin for President, until she chickened out from the death threats.
Check my posting history: I don't believe there is a political solution for what ails America, anyway, so Mitt will only make things worse. Still, I won't vote for the bastard.
She makes a great point here!
I didn't watch it, even though my dear friend, TheConservativeParty, told me about it! I forgot, since I don't watch the show and have no idea about the channel or the time of its airing.
Sounds like you enjoyed the show!!!

All right gang, let's go ahead and automatically blend these various photographs here. They are all found inside the Video awards sub-folder, inside the 28_auto_align folder and I'm looking at the images in the Bridge. I'm going to press Ctrl+A or Command+A on a Mac to select all six photographs of the seven awards and one palm tree and then I'm going out to the tools menu and choose Photoshop and choose once again Load Files into Photoshop Layers and then you'll just have to let Photoshop do its thing, it's got to build the layered file as you can see. It goes pretty quickly though. A lot quicker than doing it yourself, that's for sure.
And now we have the Hermes focused photographs here on top. That's Seven awards1 and then the palm tree focused photograph down at the bottom. That's Seven award6. Now what do we do? Well, even tough these photographs were captured with a tripod, there is a fair amount of slight wavering going on from one image to the next. And to see that I'm going to go ahead and Alt-click or Option-click in the eyeball for Seven awards1, which is also selected, and then I'll press Alt+Left Bracket or Option+Left Bracket to move down the stack and you could see, already there, we are actually magnifying the scene just ever so slightly, and then we are going in a little more and then we are tilting a little and that one actually looks remarkably like the previous one, and then we are going in even a little farther.
So there is a little bit of variation, but this is a kind of variation that the Auto Align command can handle. It slight for one thing, but also there is no differences in perspective. So I'm going to go ahead and Alt-click on the eyeball Option-click in the remaining eyeball to show all of the layers. Then I'm going to press Ctrl+Alt+A or Command+Option+A to select all of the layers and let's go up to the Edit menu and we'll start with Auto Align Layers and it will come up and say blah, blah, blah. And we'd just say OK, as long as Auto is turned on. Then we say OK and then you wait for-- it's going to take a few moments of course to go through these various images.
Something I'll say while the progress bar is up on screen here is that I'm providing you with fairly low- resolution images. These are all 6 megapixel images, because they downsampled them from the original 12 megapixel images. Had we worked from the original 12, the progress bar would have been there much, much longer. So that's something to consider when you are working with these functions. Also, very common to get out of memory errors, especially during this next operation and what we are going to do is go to the Edit menu and choose Auto Blend Layers and what you want is stack images, because you are stacked on top of each other, this is not a panorama, and I'm going to recommend that you turn Seamless Tones and Colors off.
Now if you turn that checkbox on, then Photoshop is going to try to color correct each one of these images so that they match. But it only color corrects the portions of the photographs inside of the masked regions, it leaves the other portions of each one of the photos uncorrected, which makes for a big editing mess and because all these images already match each other in terms of color, at least they match each other well enough, I'm going to turn that checkbox off. It's still going to go ahead and mask every single one of the layers. So that's a good thing. So Stack Images on, Seamless Tones and Colors off, click OK. Now again we get a big progress bar, again if we have larger images, we would have even more computational intensity facing us here, but here is what I want to tell you. It's very common to get out of memory errors during these sorts of operations, especially if you heap on more images, or you've got bigger images or something along those lines, the Photomerge command will result in out of memory error.
If you get an out of memory error, what I recommend you do is quit the software, restart it and try again. Worst case scenario, restart your computer and try again. That usually solves a problem. Notice this is before, Ctrl+C, Command +C on a Mac, Hermes is in focus, but everything else is out of focus to some extent or other and this is after pressing Ctrl+C again. Oh, my gosh! Everything in this scene is in impeccable focus. It's just amazing. Now I'm going to zoom in here and you can see now, even that like the Hermes Creative Award was for the Photoshop CS3 Sharpening Image series and the Ava Award was for Photoshop CS3 Channels and Masks and then this one was for Channels and Masks, the DV award and then Telly award was for Photoshop CS3 Sharpening.
Do you see a pattern emerging? Those two series you really are ought to be looking at inside of the lynda.com Online Training Library, if you want to look at award winning stuff. That said, there are some problems. For example, this rough edge right there, that's terrible and it's gone and revealed a soft portion of one or the other photographs, and that actually happened on this very top layer. So I'm going to select the top layer right there. And something I want you to see about Auto Blend is it makes these very jagged mask patterns and so wherever you seeing these pixel blocks emerge on one layer, they are turned off on other layers. So these things meet each other on a pixel by pixel basis.
It's pretty amazing. But as long as you don't go correcting the colors, as long as you leave that one checkbox off that we saw a moment ago and say the Auto Blend dialog box, then what you can do is you can come in with the Brush tool and I want my foreground color to be set to White. It is. And I've got the layer mask selected for Seven awards1 and I'll paint this corner of this table back in. You may see other things like some word sort of artifacts around the highlights at the base here that you can correct if you ever mind to. I think these are actually fairly subtle problems when you move out from the image, but this needs to be dealt with. You have to be able to see the name of the series that won the award. Good Lord! And my name of course.
All right, zoom out some more and I'm going to go up here a little bit. His thigh, I think, is actually is as focused as it gets, because it's kind of moving toward us. So it's already beyond the depth of field there. But these wings could be better, so I'm going to paint them in -- be careful to paint only inside of the wings, don't go outside, because you'll paint in the blurry wall like so, and you don't want that. You want the wall to stay in focus. So I'm going to paint just kind of to the edge of the wings here. You could use a softer brush than I'm using, I'm using a pretty hard brush at this point. It's fairly small as well and I'll just go in there and get as much as the wing as I feel like getting and painting inside of his face a little bit, although his face is in pretty good shape and then of course, we would move over to Seven awards2, because our friend Ava or whatever her name is has problems, so let's go ahead and paint in the center here and one of will be able to see Jacob taking the photograph right there. So you can see his knuckles and that's very important to see that photographer in the shiny objects, I always love that.
Go ahead and paint in the reflections better. This sort of thing. So you can get as detailed as you want to get, my friends. This, oh, this will never do, look at that fuzzy typewrite there, I think, let's see is that layer? It probably is they think I think the DV award is captured in Seven awards3 and so let's see if we can paint in the type a little better. So it's in nice sharp focus lynda.com. Oh, my gosh, my dear publisher, they need to have their name in focus as well and I'm noticing a problem with Hermes' legs. Let's go back to Hermes and paint the reflections in properly.
What is going on? Silly, silly Auto Blend. It doesn't get everything 100% right, but it's amazing, amazing, I tell you, how much it does it get right. Look at that scene, everybody in focus, oh my goodness. And of course the next thing I would do is go to the Crop tool. We haven't cropped any of the other images, but you would crop everything you Auto Align or Auto Blend, and you will grab that Crop tool and drag it around the portion of the image that you want to retain and I don't really want to see the fact that the base is hanging off the edge of this table.
We just didn't have a very deep table to work with here and we can crop off some of the palm tree. It's technically not an award after all. I crop inward a little bit there and I have Hide turned on, Shield is turned off just so as you know and then I'm going to press the Enter key or the Return key on the Mac and I'm going to press the F key a couple of times to fill the screen. Let's go ahead and zoom in, why don't we, so we can see these beautiful awards that are all in impeccably sharp focus thanks to a talented photographer of course, thank you Jacob Cunningham and Photoshop's amazing Auto Align and Auto Blend features working together with just a little bit of manual masking here inside Photoshop CS4.

I have a section of my website where we post new tracks from various artists. I want to take the title of those tracks and break them down into "artist" and "song" so that I can style them differently and use them in various places in my template.
It should be a simple process; all of the post titles are formatted like you might expect ("Artist - Song name")
For some reason, no matter what I do I cannot split this string (the_title) at the dash (" - ") and return anything of value.
I used a combination of strpos() and subsr(), I tried strstr(), and I've now tried using explode() -- and for some reason it's no good.
If you look at the code, $firstName[0] SHOULD be the artist name (occurring before " - ") but for some reason it just returns the entire title.
When I used strstr() and strpos/substr it just returned blank. Someone please help me, I'm pulling my hair out!

NEW JOINTS
<?php query_posts('showposts=10&offset=0&cat=562'); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post('', '', FALSE); ?>

$firstName = explode(" – ",the_title('','',false));
echo $firstName[0];
<?php endwhile; ?>

Marriage on the Edge (The Barons, #1)

by Sandra Marton (Goodreads Author)
Tia's review
Apr 17, 2012
I didn't actually care for this book, I remember I read it a while back. It made me angry to read it because the mistakes the hero and heroine made were very slight. They just had way too much pride and very little trust. Not to mention the fact, they didn't openly talk about their fears and the situations at hand.
