So what curriculum are you all using?
With the tons of resources available, finding the perfect fit can be overwhelming, can't it?
I start by knowing what I want the kids to learn over the next few months and then try find a way to get that across. Sometimes it uses curriculum; sometimes it's based on projects we do as a family, like gardening or "visiting a country."
Writing (and how ironic is it that I work as a writer and editor now?) has been the subject area most challenging to me throughout school and the hardest for me to teach. My favorite help was a series called "Writing Strands." It begins with a prewriting book, "Writing Strands 1". This is for little kids and has games and projects to get preschoolers and kindergarteners sharing with words. Later, the young reader/writers learn basic writing skills, organization, descriptive language and creative writing during the first years. The later booklets teach various types of writing, from research to argumentative and explanatory. After completing this set, your kids can hold their own on University level writing assignments.
We are using mostly A Beka with several other things added it to supplement. Looking forward to going to a used book fair to find some new ideas.
I'm doing a hybrid program. It's technically public school, but it's a Charter school. So it's all done at home, but he has an online planner and the school sends us all the curriculum for the school year, we just send it back at the end of the year. We are enrolled with Oregon Connections Academy.
I am interested, though, in that writing program you mentioned, Jules. It's Jacob's most difficult area right now.
Nell, we are looking into a public online school for next year that uses K12 for their curricullum. Do you like doing it that way? My #1 reason for considering it is money. Curriculum costs add up so fast. I figure I can always enroll her and pull her out 2 weeks later if we don't like it.
I really like structure, so having a core curriculum to use is important to me.
This year we we used ACE materials completely. We went through the entire K curriculum and started 1st as well. I really liked it. Material has been good. My only complaint has been that the curriculum for K and the beginning of 1st is designed for Christian schools as well, so it is written as group activities. I just adapted as necessary, but it would be nice if they could adapt their program and send out a different packet to homeschoolers.
Well, we used it for a couple of months when he started Kindergarten. But I had trouble reading the instructions for him and keeping his brother from getting into places he shouldn't be. His little brother had just started becoming mobile and started his 3 month long screaming phase, so we bailed and sent Jacob to kindergarten at a public classroom school. I really LIKED the program, I just couldn't work with Jacob the way he needed it. But now that he can read, I think it will be even less work for me cause he should be mostly self sufficient. Connections Academy uses Calvert curriculum which I've heard great things about. You can get Calvert as a homeschooling curriculum and be completely self standing. As a Connections student, we are technically NOT homeschooling as it is an accredited PUBLIC school that is done at home. I consider us a "hybrid" family. The thing that I really like about Connections is that they do individualized learning plans for each student and periodic reviews and revamp their plan as needed. So if he's struggling in one area, we can review it until it's clear and then move on, and if he's doing really well in an area, we can move him forward as quickly as he's able to.
I have NO idea about K12, but I've heard GREAT things about it from families I know personally (who live in a different state than me).
Stephanie, I just realized you're in WA. My friends who use K12 are near Puget Sound.
I have heard both good and bad things about K12. A great resource for getting reviews on individual curriculum is www.homeschoolreviews.com
I look for core subject curriculum that matches my kids learning style. This year we used about 5 publishers and next year i think we have 6 different ones. I loathe the all inclusive stuff, but that is my preference. I use the scope and sequence for the year they are in and choose what books we will be studying, usually i do that in the spring for the next fall. Then i spend some time finding the best bargains
This fall i will have a 3rd grader, K and a toddler at home.

Help Abused Dog Rainey Walk Again
Posted October 14th, 2013 @ 3:41pm
I read about Rainey over the weekend, and her's is one of the most devastating animal abuse/neglect stories I've come across. Here's Rainey's story:
Rainey was turned in to the Houston City Pound by her owner. The owner said that she had gotten her leg caught in a rope and thought it was better until the leg fell off. She is missing her leg from the knee down on back right leg and there is about 3 inches of bone exposed and dried out. The left front foot has only exposed metacarpal bones stripped down to the bone and phalanges are missing completely. This bone too is dried out. She is walking on this foot with a limp. There is a very foul odor from the leg. These do not appear to be recent injuries. She has thinning hair and hairloss over mid to lower back. Despite all of this she is the sweetest, gentlest little girl who loves to be in your lap! She was picked up and taken immediately to the ER and will be transferred to our regular vet. She will need amputation surgery, reconstructive surgery and, hopefully, she will be a candidate for a prosthesis which will run in the the thousands of dollars. Please help us help Rainey walk again!
Check out the fundraising site set up by her rescue group, Red Collar Rescue. And FYI, the authorities have been notified according to RCR.

And even when shelters give them all the attention they can, it's better for their social skills to be living in a house in the meantime. Or, in this case, an office. ...

Centre-back Hudson was voted the club's player of the year by their supporters last season, a campaign in which Malkay Mackay's side secured promotion to the Barclays Premier League by winning the Championship title.
The Guildford-born 31-year-old, who joined from Charlton in 2009, told the club's official website: "I'm thrilled to have secured my future with Cardiff City and that the thought of my contract is no longer in the back of my mind.
"It's a relief to have done this so early on in the summer so that we can focus purely on the football now in the build up to the season's kick off."
Mackay said: "I'm delighted that Mark has committed his future to Cardiff City football club.
"He is the ultimate professional, an inspirational leader of men and a pleasure to work with on a day-to-day basis.
"It was no surprise to see Mark voted as the supporters' club's player of the season earlier this summer, nor that he was voted as part of the PFA's Championship team of the year.
"To secure our captain on a longer-term deal this summer was on our list of priorities and I'm sure he will have the same impact for us in the Barclays Premier League as he did in captaining the players to promotion last season."
Hudson made his 150th Cardiff appearance last term and has scored 11 goals for them.

A Cautionary Tale for a New Age of Surveillance
October 8, 2001
It's being proposed as a solution for terrorism. But once thousands of cameras from hundreds of separate closed circuit TV systems are able to feed their digital images to a central monitoring station, and the images can be analyzed with face- and behavioral-recognition software to identify unusual patterns, then the possibilities of the Panopticon (see-all surveillance system) will suddenly become very real.

Arizona Wildcats

Rich Rodriguez: 'Life is good at the U of A'
Rich Rodriguez just finished his first football season as the head coach of the University of Arizona Wildcats.
His team surpassed all expectations by winning eight games, and following a Gildan New Mexico Bowl victory, the coach was, not surprisingly, pleased with the decision he made last November to take the Arizona job.
"This is a great place, I'm extremely happy, the family's happy," Rodriguez told Arizona Sports 620's Doug and Wolf Monday.
Rodriguez said his children are doing well in school and said "life is good at the U of A" for the Rodriguez clan.

I paid upfront in cash, and they did not have that cash on hand. I was told you will receive a refund check next week from the manager, who writes all checks. Nothing was received that week, nor the following week.
I called the hotel directly, and the manager had gone home already (it was only 3pm). Left voicemail, and he called me back 3 days later. Said oh yes, check has been cut by corporate office in Columbus, Ohio, I should receive it in a day or so.
NOTHING! No check, no nothing. I contacted customer service at red Roof by email, they said they would file a complaint for me. That was ten days ago, and still no check.
I called the customer service number, and Chris told me he couldn't see if a check was ever written or not, and needed to transfer me to the corporate office. I got transferred and then voicemail said sorry not available, leave a number we will call you back within 24 hours.
I find it totally unnacceptable that a company of their size and stature can take so long holding onto someone's money. The lesson learned is to pay with debit/credit card so chanrges can be disputed if refunds are not received.
I am planning another trip back to OH this fall, and I can tell you this I will NOT be staying with RedRoof, even though it is close to the location I will be visiting. I am more than happy to pay more and stay a bit further away.

I finally finished a roll of film in my Contax T3 and had it developped. Madonna may despise these flowers, but they are pretty and remind me of my happy childhood. As for these shots, I remember waiting for rainy (if not, misty) mornings to shoot as I think that's when they are the most beautiful.

That's because his partner – the 1˝-year-old old cub Luna – is nursing a broken leg after a roughly 14-foot fall into a dry moat Saturday afternoon.
Luna was resting comfortably Tuesday in the zoo's veterinary hospital, eating and drinking well and responding positively to staff, according to Donna M. Fernandes, the zoo's president and chief executive officer.
"She's going to be fine," said Fernandes. "She's confined because we want to make sure she doesn't put too much weight on her back foot."
Luna fractured the tibia and fibula on her left rear leg above her ankle joint, according to the zoo. Fernandes said animal surgeons affixed a permanent plate to Luna's leg bones.
"You can't put a cast on a polar bear," said Fernandes.
The incident occurred about 12:15 p.m. Saturday when Luna was walking around the 16-foot wall on the edge of the moat and, for an unknown reason, lost her footing and fell. The moat is what separates the animals from the general public.
Zoo officials investigated an anonymous tip that a child with a laser pointer could have been involved in distracting Luna, but that claim remained unfounded late Tuesday.
Meanwhile, the international animal rights organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals sharply criticized zoo management for allowing Luna to roam near the 16-foot drop-off. PETA is calling on the Buffalo Zoo to shut down its polar bear exhibit.
"It's not appropriate," said Brittany Peet, a Washington, D.C.-based counsel for PETA. "Polar bears are obviously not tigers and it's not appropriate to have a polar bear in a tiger enclosure."
But zoo officials said the fact that the polar bears are temporarily occupying space normally reserved for tigers didn't factor into the cause of Luna's fall.
"She's walked around on that hundreds of times, and in the winter with layers of ice," said Rachel Gottlieb, a zoo public affairs spokeswoman. "It is just a rare incident."
Luna and Kali were sharing space in the tiger exhibit, alternating time slots with the huge cats.
The polar bears' "Arctic Edge" exhibit is undergoing a $14 million upgrade at the Buffalo Zoo and is slated open to the public on schedule in fall 2015.
If PETA had its way, the zoo's multimillion-dollar showcase exhibit would never open.
"Polar bears are one of the species that suffer the most in a zoo environment," said Peet. "The Buffalo Zoo needs to transfer the polar bears to a more appropriate location where there are vast natural spaces in a consistently cool climate."
Zoo officials dismissed the PETA charges. "They have their issues with zoos and they choose to ignore the positive things zoos do for animals," Gottlieb said of PETA. "We always have the animals' best interests in mind."
Luna was in good hands after Saturday's fall, and remains so, zoo officials said. After she fell, she was anesthetized by a dart and then transported her to the veterinary hospital at the zoo.
That's where her leg was X-rayed by zoo veterinarian Dr. Kurt Volle, who confirmed the fractures. Zoo officials said a pair of board-certified veterinary surgeons from the Sheridan Animal Hospital attached a bone plate to stabilize the fracture on Sunday.
"We have very skilled veterinary surgeons locally," Fernandes said. "They were immediately available."
Luna is expected to remain out of the exhibit recuperating for at least the next six weeks.
"For us, it's just about trying to limit her movement," Fernandes said.
Fernandes said Luna is in good spirits and moving around in her quarantined location at the zoo.
At times, Luna even makes zoo officials concerned because she seems almost too happy. When Luna catches sight of her handler, Alice Rohauer, she stands up on her back legs.

Indians Now Disdain a Farm Once Hailed for Giving Tribe Jobs
Published: November 15, 2003
(Page 2 of 2)
Mr. Boltz said he believed that the conditions for the pigs and workers fell somewhere between the dueling descriptions offered by the association and the company. He said he had not learned of significant complaints from workers about health or safety, but had heard accusations about poor conditions for the hogs.
Ms. Eisnitz said the association recently had the air inside the barns tested for ammonia. At their peak, she said, the levels were more than double the federal government's average limit for workers during an eight-hour shift.
Many workers complained about breathing problems. Anthony Barrera said he was so short of breath after quitting as a maintenance worker at the farm last year that for months he could not finish a sentence. A doctor, he said, prescribed a medicine inhaler usually used by asthmatics and told him that breathing the barn air could cause lung problems like those suffered by coal miners. When employees gather in the farm's break room, he said, there is a continuous chorus of deep coughs.
Mr. Fontaine said the company periodically tested the barn air for ammonia and had not found an unsafe level.
One worker, Arthur Black Bear, said in a taped interview that was part of the association's investigation that his bosses ordered him back to work after he was jolted by electricity while using faulty equipment. He can no longer work, he said, because the shock left him with chest pain and muscle spasms. He also has difficulty concentrating, he said.
Mr. Fontaine questioned Mr. Black Bear's account, saying that records show he had suffered "a routine work injury." No manager, he said, had ordered Mr. Black Bear to work after he was hurt.
Mr. Barrera and some current workers said they had firsthand knowledge of the mistreatment and mishandling of the animals.
The employees say more than 50 piglets froze to death one night last winter after they were left on a truck overnight. Mr. Barrera said the barns do not have enough heat lamps to keep the babies warm, so they jump on top of each other in a pile under each light. Sometimes, he said, those on the bottom smother, while those on the top burn to death.
Mr. Fontaine disagreed that such deaths were a problem. "We want as many animals to survive that can," he said.
But Marlene Covey, who worked several weeks at the farm this year caring for piglets, said employees were told to kill pigs they believed were too sick to live. "They picked them up by the hind legs and smacked their head on the floor," Mrs. Covey said.

Skill Level Beginner
Next, I want to show you a really useful feature in After Effects called slip editing. Let's say that I created a Timeline that I'm basically happy with. I've got the layers in the correct timing that I want in the overall composition and I've got them stacked the way I wan,t etcetera. However, I run across the layer and say the external in and out points, this timing relative to the Timeline is fine, but I don't like the segment of content that's being shown inside that period of time. Well, I can go ahead and use the Slip Editing feature to change what content I'm using from the source without changing the time that layer is visible in the overall Timeline and overall composition.
I am going to select my fist layer here, Clock+Skyline. Press I to go to its In point. Keep an eye on these In, Outs, and Durations. These are relative to the overall comp. Next, I am going to move my cursor over this ghosted area in the bar before or after the segment that's actually visible and being used in the Timeline. When I do so, you'll see the cursor change to a dual-headed arrow with bars on the ends. This is a Slip Editing cursor. If I click-and-drag on one of these ghosted parts of the bar, notice that the ghost changes, meaning I'm trimming the layer. I'm changing the internal in and out points.
I'm using a different segment of my source. However, the layer's in and out points in the overall composition are not changing. Notice the In and Out comps to the left are staying the same. So what I can do is I can park my time indicator like I have here, slip edit, and watch the Comp panel and decide you know, I'd rather use it starting here at 1 o'clock rather than starting at 9 o'clock like I did before. Now my overall timing is the same. I am just using a different segment of this particular clip. By the way, as with all editing functions, you can also keep your eye on the Info panel to also see what you're up to when you perform any editing command.
For example, when I do a slip edit, you'll see that it's showing me what my internal in and out points are for the clip, the delta, how much I'm changing those points by, and what my duration is. In this case, I'm not changing my duration at all. I can slip edit in the Timeline panel or I can bring open the Layer panel for this clip and slip edit in here by looking for that double-cursor and moving the layer bar visible in the Layer panel relative to the overall length of the source material. You'll see I have the same effect going on here.
I'm changing what segment is being used at the source, but down there in the Timeline panel, I'm not changing when this layer is going to be visible in the overall Timeline. So I'll pick a segment here like around there. See what that looks like. It's not quite as interactive as doing things directly in the Timeline panel but it is an alternative. Then I go back to Composition. If you happen to be working on a comp where you are so far zoomed-in on a source that you cannot see ghosted sections of the bar at the end or at the start, there is an alternative.
You can switch to the Pan Behind tool. The shortcut is Y. Remember, you can press-and-hold the key to temporarily switch tools. By doing so, I am going to move my cursor over this bar, it's normally the Selection tool to move the entire bar. Press-and-hold Y and you'll see I now again have my Slip Edit tool. Now, while holding Y, I can drag inside the layer bar to decide what segment I'm using. The In and Out times here are not changing, but I am changing what content is visible at the current time, and I'll zoom-out so I can see everybody again.
What's really interesting is if I had keyframes attached to a layer. Let me go ahead and select this Jet Landing bar. Move the cursor to where the previous layer bar ends by holding the Shift key. That will snap. Press T to reveal this layer's Opacity. Keyframe it. Press I to jump to its In point, enter 0 for its opacity. Now, I've got a fade up. So it's crossfading from the layer underneath to the layer on top. If I don't have any keyframes selected and I use a Slip Edit tool, notice that the keyframes will stay in place.
So I am still slip editing the layer but I'm keeping my Fade Up at exactly the same time, which is desirable in this case because I do want to cross-fade. I just want to change what segment is being used like right around there. On the other hand, if these keyframes have an important relationship to the source, say I'm painting on top of the source or masking out a particular feature of the source, I may want to move those keyframes together with a source as I slip edit. In that case I'll select those keyframes. They're highlighted in yellow.
Now when I slip edit, the keyframes move along with the source material which means that they are moving in the overall composition. Not what I would want to do for opacity. Definitely what I'd want to do for rotoscoping or with masking, etcetera. So remember slip editing. it's also really useful.

Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between science and technology ó almost all the time when it has to do with the brain.

Now Twitter is facing a total revenue growth crisis. Today… Read More

What Peter Thiel doesn't understand about US innovation
Thiel sees the American government locking down innovation and keeping it out of the hands of the American everyman.

Looky looky, I got Rooky
Each of the combiner teams so far includes a new dude who replaces one of the traditional dudes. Alpha Bravo replaces Slingshot, Offroad replaces Wildrider, and Rook replaces Groove. Slingshot, Wildrider, and Groove are all still available somehow, so it doesn't bother me so much, plus it gives us these new guys. I like new guys! And the new guys so far have been more interesting than the folks they replace. Rook is the best example of this so far. He's probably the best toy of the Deluxe Combiner Wars guys so far.
What makes him stand out is that, unlike Alpha Bravo and Offroad, who are really Vortex and Ruckus, Rook is an entirely new design. He gets to be his own dude, rather than a "pretool" of somebody else. I mean, he's probably going to end up being a pretool for somebody else eventually, given how often these toolings are reused in some manner, but he's seemingly entirely himself.
And since he's new we get an interesting idea or two from him, since he starts out as a blank slate. He's wide and bulky, unlike his peers. His head is designed to look like a rook piece from, y'know, chess, which may make him the first Transformer guy named Rook whose name makes some sort of sense. He transforms differently from everyone else, incorporating a rear backpack of sorts that satisfyingly snaps into place in each mode. He's got ankle joints, which is a luxury in this line.
But most importantly to me, he's got Hulk hands. Instead of the usual 5mm peghole inside his hands, this hole is instead sculpted in front of them, so that you can take a combiner fist and plug one in, giving him pounding power. You can double up on them, or even quadruple up on them if you plug another two into his shoulders. Not only is this super cool, but it also frees up weapons from other characters who look kind of mismatched holding large-ass pieces of artillery, like First Aid.
Over in Japan, they're making a Deluxe-sized Groove exclusive to their country and ditching Rook. I feel a little bad for them. We still get Groove as a Legends Class chestpiece over here, and Rook is great.

That murderous jerk Blades
You know, to disambiguate him from adorable friendly Blades from Rescue Bots.
The Protectobots are mostly a friendly group, at least when they're not hired by Grimlock to hunt down Blaster and Goldbug to bring them back to him for trial and execution. One of them's a pacifist, even, though which one depends on continuity. (Groove most places but in the cartoon it was First Aid.)
But Blades was always the jackhole of the group. As I've been reblogging photos of the new Combiner Wars Protectobots these past few months, a common response has been "dude, that rescue helicopter is covered in missiles, wtf." Well, that's Blades! He's kinda missiley! He just wants to kill, kill, kill. You know how it is.
Combiner Wars Blades ain't got a whole lot to talk about. He's Alpha Bravo with a new head. Unlike Streetwise and First Aid, the 90% of the rest of him isn't reshelled with new sculpting. The new head's all there is. I like Alpha Bravo, though, so Blades isn't unwelcome or anything. There's just less new to talk about versus the other Protectobots.
His blue face makes me happy.

He's a private dick
Streetwise, yo! Otherwise known as "the Autobot police car guy who isn't Prowl." For serious, they even both originally transformed into the same Nissan Z police car altmode. They just transform differently and one of them also becomes a leg. So, yeah, they don't make a lot of Streetwise toys, because Prowl already exists.
Funny thing about this new Combiner Wars Streetwise is... he's also friggin' Prowl. From the neck down, if you pay attention to the sculpting, he's just Prowl. Sure, he transforms differently, making him look passably Streetwise because "police car who transforms differently from Prowl" just kinda says Streetwise in the brain, but check him out. His chest is sculpted to look like a car hood. His toes have Prowl's tootsie taillights sculpted in. And, well, Prowl's name has shown up in solicitations, so a Prowl is coming. He's probably this toy with a new head and somehow a color scheme that doesn't look like this but still looks like Prowl.
Streetwise:Prowl::First Aid:Ratchet
That aside, Streetwise is a "reshell" of Dead End, meaning nearly everything on him is new except some innards and he transforms the same. He's this offwhite color rather than the original Streetwise's gray, but not as cream as Breakdown is. This and his slightly desaturated red give him a kind of grizzled look I like. Instead of Dead End's pipe weapon, Streetwise now has a shotgun. His new head is also crisp and sharp and interesting.
I like him a lot. I'll probably also like him when he's got a new head and he's Prowl.

Super racist Transformers Collectors' Club Nova Prime
Nova Prime is an artifact of Cybertron's past. He merged the ancient thirteen tribes into a united society, bringing about a new golden age... or, well, at least a new golden age for the folks Nova Prime liked best. If you were a sweet battleready humanoid-type person like him, you didn't fare so bad. But if you were, like, a beast dude or whatever, then you were probably not gonna like Nova Prime's new caste system. History regarded Nova Prime as pretty awesome because of all the stuff he did, because folks who were happy with Nova Prime got to write history. And so it came as a surprise to a few people when Nova Prime returned in the modern day and was amazingly evil, with a dark Matrix and everything and also he was calling himself Nemesis Prime. You know how it is. It'd be like if Andrew Jackson, that friendly dude from the twenty dollar bill, suddenly showed up, tried to destroy the universe, and changed his name to Jerkwad Jackson. Some folks would be all "dude what the hell" but the rest would be all "yeah that makes sense."
Shortly, Nemesis Prime is a supremacist. Some would say, looking at him, that he could be accurately described as a white supremacist.
So this is super racist white supremacist Transformers Collectors' Club Nova Prime. He's the Orion Pax toy from Generations a few years back, but in white and black and with a new head. This toy was announced around while Dark Cybertron was going on last year, literally the day after I was looking at my display of Deluxe Shockwave and Deluxe Galvatron and an open spot waiting for Deluxe Jhiaxus, and wishing that there'd be some kinda Deluxe Nova Prime to fit in that spot. I make things happen just by wanting them to happen hard enough, apparently.
Now, as of two days ago, I don't draw Recordicons nor do I do anything else for the back page of the TCC magazine anymore. I totes quit. So I'm gonna really tell you what I think about this toy, for reals. No holding back, no hemming or hawing. I am free to be completely honest with you, no strings attached.
I really like it. It's a pretty toy and the concept was executed well. Some of the joints are a little loose, but I dunno if that's just mine or if it's everybody's. The white with black and gold and a dash of translucent blue is engaging, plus it's a toy of a character who's never gotten a toy before.
There are rumblings that this Nova Prime toy is actually a stealth Shattered Glass figure. Conjecture is floating around that at the end of this year's magazine comic, SG Optimus Prime will have been rebuilt into "Nova Prime" by SG Unicron, mirroring how Megatron became Galvatron in the animated film. I will be a little pissy if that happens. I'm an ornery nerd and I want my toys to actually be the characters I thought they were when I bought them, because I guess that matters to my nerd brain. I mean, we'd have to move this toy off the Nova Prime TFwiki page, and that'd be super ornerifying.
Though a switch to being SG Optimus Prime would downgrade this Nova Prime toy from representing Super Racist Genocidal Monster to something a little more cartoonishly benign, like Accidentally Thumb-Mash-Favoriting Racist Tweets Somehow. I guess in some respects that's better, but it still leaves a bitter taste.

First Aid
They don't make a lot of First Aids. If Hasbro wants a white and red ambulance guy, Ratchet tends to have that covered, and if you're looking to make a First Aid out of some pre-existing ambulance guy toy, it's a hard sell to make a white and red ambulance guy into another white and red ambulance guy. You already have that toy as a white and red ambulance guy.
That's why, out of all the Protectobots, First Aid is among the least to be revisited. There are occasional Hot Spots because he's a blue fire truck and so that's a less redundant deco to go to on a red firetruck toy. There are new Blades redecoed out of helicopter toys constantly. Even Streetwise got a new toy at BotCon a few years ago, a Prowl in black and red to echo Streetwise's Generation 2 toy. Only Groove feels as left out as First Aid, and it's not a conflict of toys problem with him, it's just that nobody friggin' cares about Groove.
So bam, it's 2015, and here's your First Aid toy. He's sort of a retool of Offroad, the new Stunticon pickup truck, but in his case the word "retool" is pretty insufficient to describe what's going on. A fan term for toys like him is "reshell," since First Aid really only shares his connector peg, his thighs, and some internal jointing with Offroad. Most of the actual robot parts and the entirety of the vehicle is a new sculpt. He transforms entirely the same as Offroad -- they share engineering, that is -- but the sculpt is almost completely different. So that's actually pretty cool. It also results in some kinda uncanny deja vu as you transform him.
Despite this seemingly being First Aid's first victory over Ratchet in the toy aisle since like 1986, he's, uh, still gonna be retooled as Ratchet, apparently. His comic book has an "oops" where it shows the toy with a Ratchet head. It's probably why his chest looks like a van window bisected by his connector peg, rather than First Aid's segregated dual vent pecs. (And, likewise, Ironhide is gonna be the head retool from Offroad.) A Ratchet hasn't been solicited yet, so this is just a potential release and might just be a head that never gets used, but even when First Aid gets his day, his day is still partially Ratchet's. Poor First Aid.

After the latest update of WordPress and WP Touch, the on/off button in the footer does not work. I have tried it on two different Androids and one iPhone.
After the latest update of WordPress and WP Touch, the on/off button in the footer does not work. I have tried it on two different Androids and one iPhone.
I just updated to 1.9.8 and the on/off button in the footer is still not working.
Please check if another one of the active plugins is conflicting with WPtouch by briefly deactivating each one at a time and see if you find the culprit. You can also try enabling "Restricted Mode" in the WPtouch admin panel and see if that helps resolve the issue.
Same here.
Deactivation of all plugins is no option and restricted mode does not help.
Tested under WP3.6
I have same issue...
Any help please?
Just set up this plugin today and having issues with this feature working. I see the button on the bottom of the mobile page but when when I switch off there is no way to switch back to the mobile view from the desktop view.
Is the link that's added to the desktop view "Switch to our mobile site"? It simply refreshes the page and I'm still on the desktop view.
Using WordPress 3.6.
This issue sounds as if you have a caching plugin serving cached mobile pages that are blocking your live site. You may configure your caching plugin not to cache mobile pages nor to serve cached pages when mobile devices are detected. To do so, enter the user agents found under Advanced Options > Custom User-Agents to the "rejected user agents" areas in your caching plugin's settings. Remember to clear your plugin, browser, and device caches before retesting.
I believe I followed these steps earlier and again just now but no change. Not sure what I could be missing. I do not see "rejected user agents" but I do see: The currently enabled user-agents are: AdsBot-Google, Android, BB10, BlackBerry 9350, BlackBerry 9360, BlackBerry 9370, BlackBerry 9380, BlackBerry 9780, BlackBerry 9790, BlackBerry 9800, BlackBerry 9810, BlackBerry 9850, BlackBerry 9860, BlackBerry 9900, BlackBerry 9930, BlackBerry9500, BlackBerry9520, BlackBerry9530, BlackBerry9550, CUPCAKE, Googlebot-Mobile, bada, dream, froyo, iPhone, iPod, incognito, s8000, webOS, webmate
I am using WP Super Cache.

Not sure what I may be doing incorrectly.
@SBMongoos, you need to set up WP Super Cache to reject mobile user agents. See the instructions above.
Just found: "Mobile device support. (External plugin or theme required. See the FAQ for further details.)" Under advanced and unchecked it. However, now after clearing my S3 browser cache it loads the desktop site. If click on the link at the bottom to switch to mobile site it does but then I cannot switch back. I have the On/Off button on the mobile site but which I click on Off it simply refreshes the mobile site.
I continue to have the same issue, the on/off button in the footer doesn't work.
I bought a different plugin and it work fine...
I don't mind to spend same money, and I prefer WP Touch Mobile Plugin also, but unfortunately it doesn't work anymore on two of my websites.
I understand that there are so many themes and sites with many plugins, but here I hadn't any help...
Anyway, thank you for a great plugin that I'm still using in others sites.
-> drunkfox - what mobile plugin are you using.
Now I cannot get the mobile site to come up.
@SBMongoos - Now I'm using Obox Mobile 2.
As I said, I prefer WP Touch but it doesn't work...
Same here I'm afraid. WPTouch seems to work OK without much setup, but the button for turning off Mobile Theme doesn't work.
Also: shortcodes are not expanded before showing! Any workaround for this? Rather important...
