But I wanted to look around. But I should have read the other reports on here.
I quickly concluded that it was going to be way to expensive, $3.50 per email, and the same (or more) for the girl to respond. I figured that most women would not want to pay.
Seemed stupid. And most of the local women in my category of interests and incomplete profiles, so I guessed they weren't serious.
So I went to delete my account, much to my shock $19 to delete.!
So instead I just changed all the info in my account to fake info,
I did all that, but I'm guessing most don't bother, they just leave their profile up and don't use the site.
So what percentage of the women, are accounts that they wanted to delete but didn't want to pay for that?
What percentage of the profiles are just women setting up fake profiles to see if their husbands are on there?
And others have claimed that many of the profiles are fake profiles set up by the site, that could be true too.
At best 1 out of 10 profiles are real, so now you have to send 10 $3.5 emails ($35 total) to get to one real girl.
And maybe she's will to pay to answer, maybe not?

His incredible capability to adapt and create different music styles has made the Galician one of these hard to catch rare species. His knowledge about sound and his development on infinite musical environments leave remarkable traces in his sets and live acts. A self proclaim eclectic, David often navigates between electronic inhospitable scenarios and techie old school confines. The first references were on 2007, when he published three EP's, drawing attention of the Yugoslavian DJ & producer "Umek", who offers be the first remixer of one of David's most emblematic tracks, "Las Aventuras". He has been proclaimed in several opportunities the winner of remix contests such as "Teleport", from the Argentines Hernan Catteneo & Soundexile, and "The Secret Garden" from Cora Novoa, a property of the Spanish producer Henry Saiz, which was the prelude to his post releases on Sudbeat and Natura Sonoris. As expected the producer career has improved substantially as has the number of his releases. Labels as Baroque, Outside the Box, Particles, Afterglow, Lowbit, Liquid Grooves, Dar or Replug, have been some of the artist houses. Supported by people like Tiesto, who has recently played one of David's latest remixes on his radioshow, or Laurent Garnier, who commented "David is one of that producers who makes the kind of hard to listen techno that I love so much" and qualifiying his last remix "Amir", as a "Techno bomb". To these big artists we can add: Markus Schulz, Nick Warren, Hernan Cattaneo, Dave Seaman or Martin García. Last December came to light his debut EP on the prestigious Canadian label microCastle, which has been considered by many DJ ́s and producers as the best of the year and which counts with remixes from big names of the industry like Alexander Kowalski, Ryan Davis, Fairmont and Charlie May. David has rightfully translated into his music his vast musical taste, getting in turn a dynamic and complete "Live" set. His old progressive-house productions seasoned with house rhythms and the raw techno basses, have resulted in a more complex performance, with highly techno nuances bound with 909 drums, and Detroit and Berlin trends. His nonconformist and ambitious attitude implies a high investment of time in the studio and in the confection of DJ sessions, improving his range of action, and testing a bit more the different musical slopes. Personality drives him to create his own label "Aegyptia Recordings", which seeks to be a platform for new and consolidated producers, and that little by little is gaining the sector's respect. 2013 will be a year full of news for the artist, like his recent incorporation to the red bull music academy bass camp 2013, the production of original music and the release of his first album scheduled for December. Granha's music is becoming little by little an essential material to many of the best DJ's in the world, and he is, without a doubt, influencing a new generation of producers. It is because of this we can say that he is one of the rough diamonds of the European techno.

NC Wesleyan College Students Tackle World Hunger
Growing concerns about hunger in the world have spurred NC Wesleyan College students to take action. With a goal of increasing awareness and to raise funds toward alleviating the problem, several campus groups have joined together to plan the Second Annual Hunger Banquet.
For a modest donation of $10 or more, or a contribution of 5 or more canned food items, community members are invited to attend the banquet on Wednesday, November 16 at 6 pm in the Wesleyan Dunn Center. The campus is located at 3400 N. Wesleyan Boulevard in Rocky Mount.
According to AmeriCorps*Vista volunteer Jillian Hauf, "The Hunger Banquet at NCWC is an interactive dining experience that is representative of an average meal from a low-, middle-, or high-income level. Guests may not leave with a full stomach, but they will take with them a new perspective on the issues of hunger and global food insecurity."
The banquet is not all serious business, however. Local media celebrity David Joyner will serve as emcee for the event. Joyner is a Rocky Mount native who serves on the boards of several local non-profit organizations and is a founder of the Dare to Dream event.
Funds generated by the Hunger Banquet will support a meal packaging event to be held on campus in the spring. NCWC student volunteers will package dehydrated, high-protein, highly nutritious meals to be distributed in crisis situations and in food programs for schools and orphanages in developing countries around the world. Stop Hunger Now, an international hunger-relief agency based in Raleigh, will receive and distribute the packages.
For more information, to make a donation, or to reserve seats for the Hunger Banquet, contact Jillian Hauf, the AmeriCorps*VISTA volunteer in the NC Wesleyan College Office of Community Engagement firstname.lastname@example.com or 252-985-5276.

Police crackdown angers some Homewood coaches
Over the past few years, at least two shootings have occurred during youth football games at the Willie Stargell Field in Homewood. The most recent, in August 2010, saw three people shot on the overpass of the Martin Luther King Jr. Busway as people left the field following the game. Despite the crowd of people present during the shooting, to date, no one has been charged with the crime. PITTSBURGH POLICE CHIEF NATE HARPER (Photo by Rossano P. Stewart) In an effort to improve safety at youth football games throughout the region, the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police have begun attending these games to ensure coaches are in compliance with rules set in place in response to last year's shooting. However, members of the Homewood community erupted with outrage following a compliance check at Stargell field Sept. 17 where they felt their neighborhood was unfairly targeted by the police.

Talk:Antinomian Controversy
Antinomian Controversy was nominated as a good article in the History category but did not meet the good article criteria at the time. There are suggestions on the review page for improving the article. Once these are addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake.
Reviewed version: January 19, 2013
|This article is of interest to the following WikiProjects:
|A fact from Antinomian Controversy appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know? column on 9 July 2012 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows: "Did you know
Two dissenters, or three?[edit]
The text describing Anne Hutchinson's trial right now asserts that "When a vote was taken on a sentence of banishment, only the two deputies from Boston, Colburn and Coddington, dissented." But our article on John Coggeshall asserts that he is one of three dissenting votes -- that fact is cited there, and I've seen the same claim made in a family history of the Coggeshall family (behind a paywall at Ancestry.com). Do we have any reason to think that Coggeshall wasn't a dissenting vote? Or was his vote accidentally left out of our account? Given how well-documented this article is in general, I'm happy to hold off until I can get a second opinion from someone better equipped than I am to know the ins and outs of this. Jwrosenzweig (talk) 06:41, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
- Hello; as I recall this quote was taken right out of one of Winship's accounts. My gut feeling is that Coggeshall may have already been removed from the ability to vote, leaving Boston with only two voting members. However, when I have a moment, I'll go back and re-read the details and give you a more succinct reply.Sarnold17 (talk) 10:17, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
- Actually, the material cited was from Battis, but I just did a quick reading of Winship, and both Coggeshall and Aspinwall had been previously dismissed from the court (Winship, 2002, p 169), and Boston had to vote with only two of its deputies. In fact, Coggeshall had been considered for banishment before Hutchinson stood trial. There are many details from Winship that I plan to incorporate into the Coggeshall article in the future.Sarnold17 (talk) 10:31, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
- After a few more minutes with the situation, I see that the Coggeshall article cites Bicknell (1920) on the subject, and this appears to be out of date with more modern scholarship on the subject. I will need to go back sooner, than later, and bring the Coggeshall article somewhat up to date.Sarnold17 (talk) 13:19, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

- Thank you for picking this up for review.Sarnold17 (talk) 10:25, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
- Completed a cursory read-over and edited the lead section to make the tone more neutral and the overall content more concise. Hfeatherina (talk) 17:53, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
- "Historical impact" discussion is overly American-centric, too long to be appropriate for an encyclopedia article and opinion rather than fact based. I removed references to its importance from the lead-in as a teaser, but am of the opinion that the entire subsection should be cut - at the very least, it should be halved.Hfeatherina (talk) 04:57, 13 December 2012 (UTC)
- I've removed material from this section, and consolidated the material into a single paragraph. Why shouldn't the historical impact section be American-centric? The event occurred in colonial America, and based on my readings, was of interest to English people in America and to English people in England. I have mentioned the impact to both groups of people. I don't understand why you consider the quotes of two of the most eminent authorities on the subject to be "opinion-based" rather than "fact-based." If I can't trust their assessments of the controversy, then whose can I trust? The controversy had an impact; in fact it had a big impact, because it set the stage for the persecution of the Quakers 20 years later and for the Salem Witch Trials that would transpire a half century later. I don't understand why you don't find merit in the quotations that I give in this section.Sarnold17 (talk) 02:40, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
Hfeatherina, the reviewer, has not edited on Wikipedia for a month, since the comment post above on this page. Sarnold17, as it's only been nine days since your reply, you can wait in the hopes of a return, or the review can be ended and the nomination put back into the GAN pool. Please let me know your preference. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:45, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi Sarnold, assuming you don't mind getting another review from me so soon, I'd be glad to take this one. (If you'd rather have fresher eyes though, I won't be at all offended.) Sorry you've had to wait so outrageously long for this one to get a full review. As last time, I'll start with a close readthrough of the article, noting any issues I can't fix immediately, and then move on to the checklist. Thanks in advance for all your work on this one. -- Khazar2 (talk) 02:03, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
- Sincere thanks to you for picking this up, since it has been unduly long in the waiting. I also appreciate your interest in the subject.Sarnold17 (talk) 03:22, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
Initial readthrough[edit]
Again, this looks like really strong work. I made it through the first few sections with only minor issues:
- "Recent scholarship depicts" --use a more specific date per WP:REALTIME
- I've reworded this and attributed it to Winship in 2002.
- "they were also called" -- "they" doesn't have a clear antecedent here; perhaps say "the dissenters"? "The 'free grace' advocates"?
- I've rewritten as "free-grace advocates".
- " a mode of atheism " -- a slightly unusual turn of phrase. Would it be fair here to just say "atheism"?
- I've reworded this
- "and to seek for better establishment in Christ..." -- is this ellipsis in the original? Also, is the roman numeral page number "x" correct? Google Books seems to show this on 17, but it may just be a different edition. [1]
- I've removed the ellipsis, but it seems from my early education that if you don't include the entire sentence, then you use an ellipsis to show that you are breaking off the sentence. Also, the Roman numeral "x" is correct; I pulled a lot of Hall's material from his preface because he spends a lot of time summarizing the events there. The material may be found on p 17 as well.
- "espousing that "an intuition of the Spirit", and not good works, was the only valid proof of one's election by God." -- maybe a little closer to the source phrasing ("the only valid proof") than needed.[2] Is it possible to reword a bit?
- reworded to read: "an intuition of the Spirit", and not outward behavior, provided the only justification that one had been elected by God
- "Such authority was rejected by the magistrates and ministers because it degraded their own authority." -- Might be worth adding "According to Hall," to the start of this sentence, unless this is widely agreed on in other sources as well (in which case ignore me). I don't doubt what she/he's saying, but it seems to be getting a bit speculative, since the ministers' actions could also be attributed to genuine beliefs.
- I've now attributed the statement to Hall.
Okay, I'm calling it a night for tonight, but more to follow tomorrow. Glad to be working with you again. -- Khazar2 (talk) 03:40, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
- "Recent scholarship depicts Cotton, Wheelwright and Vane as equally complicit" -- is this sentence relying only on, or primarily on, Winship? If so, you might just say that Winship depicts them that way so that it's clear this is the view of a single historian.
- see above comment.
- " college mate " -- in the British sense that they were "mates" (friends)? Or in the sense that they both attended Cambridge? This might be reworded
- I looked this up in the wictionary, here, and it seems to be OK.
- "Wheelwright preached a message of man's utter dependence on God's free grace, rejecting any notion that man could affect his salvation through his own works." -- normally I'd encourage you to rewrite a sentence like this in gender-neutral language. On the other hand, Wheelwright himself surely used this language, so I'd say it's okay to leave it this way. Your call.
- I think this is OK as is. The word "man" in this case doesn't seem to refer to gender, but rather to humankind, and I would opt to keep the word "his" rather than the clutsy "his or her".
- "Though the role of Vane is almost entirely neglected by scholars, he may have been the single most important reason that the controversy reached the pitch that it did." -- if this opinion is held by a minority of scholars, it definitely needs to be attributed to a specific author or authors--here and in the caption. (The caption in particular seems to flat-out say that most scholarship is wrong.)
- I've added Winship as the source of this comment, and removed most of the image caption, only leaving Vane's name.
- "come upon us for these differences and dissensions," -- If this comma isn't in the original, move it outside the quotation marks per MOS:LQ. This isn't a GA criterion, though, so you don't have to worry about fixing these for now.
- Comma has been removed
- "to the number of Antinomian opponents" -- perhaps to the "Antinomian faction"? It sounds here as if Winthrop was worried more immigrants would oppose the Antinomians, which doesn't seem likely.
- wrong word used; "opponents" had been changed to "adherents" then changed to faction as suggested.
- " to his surprise" -- Wheelwright was surprised, or Coggeshall? It sounds like it's Coggeshall from what follows--perhaps rewrite as "Coggeshall was next to be called forth, to his surprise, and was charged..."
- sentence has been restructured as suggested.
- "were warming up to the idea" -- slightly idiomatic, probably rewrite per WP:WTW
- this phrase has been removed.
- "...and if you go " -- is this ellipsis in the original?
- ellipsis put outside quote (is this correct? after all we are beginning the quote in the middle of the sentence.
- " for every default..." -- ellipsis check
- ellipsis removed
- Published works-- I can see the utility of this section and its table, but it also strikes me as problematic. First, it involves a fair amount of independent editorial comment--calling works "some of the most significant published works ", "The most comprehensive collection of source documents on the subject at the time of its publication", "more readable", "Downplays the role of Hutchinson in the controversy, and portrays Wheelwright, Cotton, and Vane as being much more focal to the event", etc. Second, I wonder if a reader might get more out of this if it were presented in prose, so that the significance of each book can be clearly explained from reliable sources. Did you have a particular model article in mind in designing this section that I might look at? I think I'd suggest refactoring this section as either a simpler "bibliography" list toward the end of the article, or perhaps a "Historical studies" section; right now it seems to uncomfortably straddle the line between a prose section and a simple list--what would you think of that?
- Supporters and followers of Hutchinson and Wheelwright-- I do like the tables here, but I'd suggest making them default to collapse; they take up a lot of article space, and not many visitors to this article are likely to read these tables. If they were expandable, though, readers only interested in prose could more easily move past them. Sound okay to you?
- My other concern about the "Supporters" table is with copyright. We're drawing on 28 pages of Battis' book in great detail here, and I'm concerned that we may be exceeding fair use. I can't get a good look in Google Books--how close is your table format to the original?
That's it for my first pass. I'd say overall it's looking good, my only real concerns are with the tables. I'm not dead-set against those, though, so let me know your thoughts. -- Khazar2 (talk) 14:02, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for your many comments; I'm a bit busy right now, so likely will wait till tomorrow before addressing them. My gut reaction concerning the tables: I could easily turn the publications table into list of a sort that you suggested. However, I'm much more partial to the participants, because the expulsion of many of those people may be the only reason Rhode Island exists today. I did not include all of Battis' items in the tables, and could even pare them down further. I could also add comments or material from other sources to reduce any perception of copyright violations. I'll get back on this tomorrow evening.Sarnold17 (talk) 00:44, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
- No hurry at all. The participants tables are probably okay then--I just wanted to make sure we weren't reproducing Battis' tables too closely. I might get a second opinion from a user more experienced in copyright. I definitely agree that it's a useful thing to have in the article. -- Khazar2 (talk) 00:53, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
- I've made a few changes today; will plan to steadily work through the comments over several days. I like your idea of collapsing the tables. Do you have any experience with this? If not, I can find an example and work my way through it.Sarnold17 (talk) 02:13, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

Close paraphrasing[edit]
I hate to be a legalist, but I started looking up a few cited statements of this article for theological precision and found some close paraphrasing/
copy-paste. These are from Hall p. x, and are pretty much copied in Antinomian Controversy#Hutchinson's beliefs:
- " It may have been from Cotton that Hutchinson learned to question the significance of the "law" and the "covenant of works"..." Only difference is Mrs. Hutchinson → Hutchinson
- "Cotton may have also encouraged her view of the Holy Spirit as being "indwelling in the elect saint."" Differences are He → Cotton, addition of "also," and "indwelling" in the elect saint → "indwelling in the elect saint."
These are just from using Amazon's preview feature. I'd have to check out the book to address it further. --JFH (talk) 16:32, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- Your check is appreciated--definitely something that will need to be fixed. I don't own these books, but I'll do spotchecks of other sources accessible through Internet as well. -- Khazar2 (talk) 16:52, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- They are duplicated in Anne Hutchinson#Adulthood—following John Cotton (an FA!). Whatever is fixed here should be checked against Sarnold's related articles. --JFH (talk) 17:11, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- These are valid points, and need to be addressed. I have never cut and pasted anything in wikipedia; all my writing is from hand-written notes. However, my notes from Bremer, Hall and LaPlante are from a year and a half ago when the phrases "copy-vio" and "close paraphrasing" were not even on my radar. My notes obviously followed the attractive writing style of these writers, but I was also very unsure of the in-depth theology being presented, and didn't want to stray far from the authors' meaning. It wasn't until last summer that I became aware of these issues, and now I need to do some fixing. Here's my plan of attack. I will look at all of the Bremer and Hall references visible in the featured previews. Then I will look at all of the LaPlante references, since I have access to the book, and reword any potential close paraphrasing there. After that I will look at the Winship 2002 book (I have access), though I suspect there will be less of an issue there since I did that research more recently. Once the paraphrasing issues are addressed, I hope to re-do the "Published works" section, perhaps as prose. When this article has been addressed, I will do likewise with the Hutchinson article, since there is some shared material. The only other articles of concern would be John Wheelwright and John Wilson (Puritan), but these two articles are more recent, and the material is largely from Winship or out-of-copyright biographies. I will look at the Bremer, Hall, and LaPlante references in them. This will all take time, but these articles are important to me, and I want them to be excellent and I want them to be right, and I will do what I can to make them right. As far as this article goes, I would think the GA process can be held open as long as there is ongoing activity. It may take me a week or longer, but hopefully I can do this in a few days.Sarnold17 (talk) 22:22, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- I apologize for using "copy-paste," (now struck) as these works are obviously not available for straight electronic copy-pasting. I'm glad to hear you'll be fixing these issues. --JFH (talk) 22:48, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, Sarnold, for your quick attention to this. Your plan of attack sounds like a good one. The balance between fidelity to sources and close paraphrasing is a tricky one, and involves a lot of gray area. I agree with Jfhuston that in these cases, the phrasing should be moved further away, but I also hope you won't feel that we're about to disarm you, expel you from the colony, and force you to move to Rhode Island; note confusion happens to much better historians than either of us. I'm glad to hold the GA process for a week or two while you double-check these. As reviewer, I shouldn't do much rewriting myself, but let me know if there's any other way I can help! -- Khazar2 (talk) 00:34, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

Updates made[edit]
I think I'm done with the comments. I've gone through all of the references attributed to Hall, Bremer, LaPlante and Winship (2002), and have made several wording changes. Some of these were for close paraphrasing, others were for greater clarity or enhanced correctness. As far as I can see, I've answered the individual comments. Then, I've taken the section on published works and changed the table into prose. Lastly, I've collapsed the tables on the supporters, and with the first table I've gone through and updated Battis' material from Charles Anderson's Great Migration series. I'm not sure this is necessary, but it was my original intent to do so--take Battis' list of people and use Anderson for the details, since the latter is more up-to-date. Please let me know what your thoughts are on all of this.Sarnold17 (talk) 03:14, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
- Sounds great. I'll take a closer look some time this weekend. Thanks for your swift work on this. -- Khazar2 (talk) 04:00, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
- Is there a punctuation mark missing in the curse: "upon you and your posterity And the mouth"? -- Khazar2 (talk) 11:38, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
While an excellent article in most other respects, I'm still concerned with the closeness of much of the article's language to the original sources, and would suggest that it still needs some overhauling in this respect before being listed as a GA.
I've only done a few spotchecks, but the language in the first paragraph of "Background", for example, is still recognizably that of its source in many places [3]. "The term implied licentious behavior and religious heterodoxy" vs. "The term had connotations of licentious and immoral behavior and religious heterodoxy"; "Besides being called Antinomians, these free grace advocates were also called Anabaptists and Familists to discredit them" vs. "used, rather by the opponents of 'Antinomians' to discredit them"; "to link the free grace advocates with these disreputable movements." vs. "linking the proponents of 'free grace' in Massachusetts with these disreputable movements". Any one of these sentences would be only a minor problem in itself--my understanding is that sharing a non-exceptional phrase with a source here and there is not a serious issue--but at paragraph length, it becomes something that needs to be addressed, particularly for a source that's used extensively throughout the article. (One good solution for paragraphs like this one would be to try to draw on multiple sources if possible; there's example and discussion at WP:Paraphrase.) Another example of the sort of sentence that bothers me is at Winship p. 50: "he was the son of Henry Vane the Elder, a Privy Counsellor of King Charles I of England, and therefore one of the most powerful men in England" vs. "He was the son of one of the most powerful men in England, a privy counselor to Charles I." These happened to be the first two sources I checked, which suggests to me that the article still needs work overall.
I'm therefore not listing this for GA at this time, but I'm confident you'll get this one there soon. As I said above, paraphrasing is a murky gray area, but my suggestion in rewriting would be to approach this not at the level of sentences, but of paragraphs. If a given sentence has two or three facts in it, say, there's only a certain number of ways you can reorganize those two facts without the sentence getting bizarre, so attempting to rewrite sentences individually may not be the most helpful approach. But when you start to reorganize and recombine those facts into your own sentences, particularly when drawing on multiple sources, your phrasing becomes your own without requiring backflips of syntax. Sorry this review hasn't ended with the pass we both hoped for, but I think the article's getting there--good luck with taking it the rest of the way to GA, and feel free to ping me if there's any way I can help. -- Khazar2 (talk) 12:37, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you for the effort and constructive criticism that you've put into this article. You have a very kind demeanor, and your encouragement is greatly appreciated. I can see that I've been doing patchwork, where instead some structural changes are needed. I will put this on the back burner, and hopefully get back to it afresh on another day.Sarnold17 (talk) 17:03, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
The lede is almost 600 words long yet manages to say absolutely nothing about the actual controversy. It uses the term ″free grace″ repeatedly without ever defining it or even linking to the free grace article. It also uses the terms covenant of works and covenant of grace without defining them, although it does link to the relevant articles. The rest of the 12,000-word article is not much better: the only two sections that look like they might provide some insight into the controversy (Background and Beliefs) both seem to assume that the reader is already familiar with the subject.

Gun Control Groups Use N.R.A. Tactics For Fall Elections
By JAMES DAO
Published: July 24, 2000
WASHINGTON, July 21— After many years of being outspent and outmuscled by the National Rifle Association, the gun control movement has begun the most ambitious campaign in its history to raise money, recruit foot soldiers and build public support for stronger gun laws in preparation for this fall's national elections.
From established groups like Handgun Control Inc., to fledgling ones like the Million Mom March, more gun control organizations than ever before are doing the kinds of grass-roots organizing that has made the N.R.A. so powerful: opening offices across the nation, training volunteers, devising media campaigns and building political war chests.
At the same time, wealthy proponents of gun control seem more willing to contribute to the cause. Several major philanthropists, including George Soros, have given millions of dollars over the last two years to groups that are providing intellectual and strategic support to the organizations and politicians who advocate more regulation of guns.
And in just the last few weeks, a handful of anonymous donors have given more than $2 million to two new groups that will use the money to help candidates who support gun control and attack those who do not.
Though the gun control groups will probably still be outspent by the N.R.A. by at least two to one, their voices in this election are likely to be louder than ever before, through television commercials, mailings and news conferences.
''It's not lonely out there anymore,'' said Joe Sudbay, political director of Handgun Control, which for years was the only gun control group active in elections. ''There is a burgeoning sense that the elections are all-important this year.''
Fueling this burst of organizing is a newfound confidence among gun control leaders that public support for regulating firearms is as high as it has ever been. Outrage over mass shootings combined with enthusiasm about the Million Mom March in May have helped change the political climate, they say. And the N.R.A. has lost clout, they contend, as evidenced by the defeat of a referendum last year in Missouri to allow people to carry concealed weapons.
''In the 22 years I've been working on this issue, I have never seen the climate as favorable'' for gun control, said Peter Hart, a Democratic pollster who works with Handgun Control.
Mr. Hart cites polls showing that the electorate's support for gun control -- always high -- is now also more intense, meaning more voters are making it a top priority. ''Education is 1, the economy No. 2,'' he said. ''But then, ahead of foreign policy and ahead of abortion, right there with moral issues and taxes, is gun control.''
Still, even the most optimistic of the gun control leaders acknowledge that they cannot match the resources of the battle-hardened N.R.A., whose leaders have promised to spend $15 million on state and federal elections this year, nearly twice as much as in 1996. The group has already raised $8 million this year and has more than $5 million on hand.
Moreover, with its 3.8 million members, three magazines, vast e-mail contact list and national network of affiliated groups, the N.R.A. is bigger, more experienced and better equipped to mobilize its core supporters than the gun control forces.
''Our membership is larger,'' said James J. Baker, executive director of the N.R.A. political wing, the Institute for Legislative Action. ''And our reach extends well beyond our members.''
''This is a very important election,'' Mr. Baker said, ''maybe the most important general election in the 20 years I've been here -- for both sides.''
Both camps say the sharp differences between the major presidential candidates this year are helping to energize supporters. Vice President Al Gore has called for an array of new restrictions, including licensing new handgun buyers and banning certain inexpensive handguns. Gov. George W. Bush of Texas has generally sided with the N.R.A., signing bills allowing people to carry concealed weapons and preventing municipalities from suing gun makers.
Much as the N.R.A. has tried to demonize Mr. Gore in its fund-raising efforts as a threat to Second Amendment rights, Handgun Control has sought to cast Mr. Bush as a pawn of the N.R.A. who would team up with a Congress controlled by Republicans to rescind every major gun law on the books.
In a recent fund-raising letter, Sarah Brady, chairwoman of Handgun Control, wrote: ''My friend, if you and I truly want a safer America, we cannot allow George W. Bush to be elected president of the United States. A political disaster of that magnitude would mean four long years of being on the defensive.''
Such appeals seem to be working. Handgun Control has raised more than $1.2 million in the last year, three times what it spent in the 1996 campaign. The group intends to spend at least $4 million this year, focusing on about 20 closely contested Congressional races where gun control is an issue. In most cases, it will be supporting Democrats, said Mr. Sudbay, the political director.

I'd like to propose another way of reporting bugs while being able to document them, discuss them, confirm them and have a quick-reference. I've put up something very preliminar on the Wiki:
This is in response to several posts that go unanswered and forgotten after a while and after I asked about the process without a clear answer so far:
Where/How to submit bugs ?
And also following this request:
Request for a bug page in Wiki
I think making this a but apart from the developers can help more end-users participate but mostly, feel their feedback is not useless.
Any comments welcome.

Description (last modified by russellm)
I want to migrate my project from the django-1.1.2 to the django 1.2.3 and I have problem with custom model managers what overrides Manager.create() method. For example:
class Book(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=10) author = models.ForeignKey(Author) objects = CustomManager() class CustomManager(models.Manager): def create(self, **kwargs): # business logic here return super(CustomManager, self).create(**kwargs)
Django 1.2.3 uses the CustomManager.create() method on the 'objects' descriptor as expected.
Book.objects.create(author=a1, title='How to be smart')
In the django-1.1.2 the same behavior had related field 'book_set' descriptor .
But in the 1.2.3 CustomManager.create() does not called anymore on related field. The next code has different behavior:
author.book_set.create(title='How to program')
The difference in the implementation for create method in the RelatedManger class. In the 1.1.2 it was delegate result to the create() method of it superclass (CustomManager).
return super(RelatedManager, self).create(**kwargs)
But the 1.2. delegates result to the result of .using(db), what is not superclass, but QuerySet.
return super(RelatedManager, self).using(db).create(**kwargs)
Look for the actual test case in the attachement. I'm Sorry for my silly english.

The tag clouds are showing in different fonts, some large, some small. Looks unprofessional. Any tips?
They are showing in different fonts?
Basically each tag in the tag cloud will "grow" the more times you use the tag. The larger the font, the more times that tag was used.
It's basically a visual representation of your most-used tags.
But I don't think it should use different fonts.
Thank you for your reply. It is not in different fonts, but different font sizes. Thank you again.
that is intended;
The tag clouds are showing in different fonts, some large, some small.
if you refer to the default tag cloud widget:
to level the tags to one size, add a snippet of code like this to functions.php of your theme (also described in here):
function set_cloud_tag_size($args) {
$args = array('smallest' => 14, 'largest' => 14);
return $args;
(adjust the number value to match your site)
there are also configurable tag cloud widgets available per plugins http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=configurable+tag+cloud+widgets
Thank you so much. This is what I was looking for.

I have been using the WooCommerce plugin for a few months now. Up until recently I was able to view all of my variable products and see the "add to cart" information, but recently I upgraded my WooCommerce plugin (as well as my WP version. I didn't notice at first, but today when I went in to add a new product, I noticed that it appears to be broken. The 'add to cart' no longer shows up. I am at a loss as to how to resolve this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Simple products work just fine.

If the charge was to your credit card (not debit card, check card, or checking account), contact the credit card company as soon as possible to request a dispute form. Consumers usually have a little longer to dispute fraudulent credit card charges (up to 6 months), but it is better to act right away. In this type of situation, credit card disputes are usually successful since fraudulent companies often won't contest the disputed charge. In rare cases, credit card companies will review disputes, but refuse to reverse the charges. If this occurs, complain to a manager and let them know you will be filing a report here.

Grow Room Tools
Grow Room Tools
from £16.00Sometimes a 'musty' or 'green' type odour may linger outside your grow room or close to vents, even if you've set up an extraction/filtration system. If this happens you can use a HydrOzone ozone generator, which produces elevated levels of ozone to kill off any lingering unwanted smells. These units prove particularly effective and are often used as 'belt and braces' alongside a Carbon Filter. They can be placed in the ducting (8' ducting and larger) after the filter to provide additional reassurance. The HydrOzone uses corona discharge technology and is superior to other models on the market as it incorporates a 7-day timer and adjustable discharge levels to suit a variety of room sizes.

Given that the hydroponic method of growing puts you in complete control of the range and quality of nutrients distributed to your plants, it is highly desirable to have purified water on hand for mixing up new batches of feed. The V2 Pure 50 Reverse Osmosis System basically acts like a giant water filter to remove all existing mineral content, enabling you to enjoy the benefits of the plant-growing equivalent of a 'blank canvas'. What then follows in terms of the featured nutrients is entirely up to you!
If you live in a hard water area where a high pH or high cF background reading can be detected, the installation of an RO unit will make a big difference because of the comparatively large concentration of unwanted chemicals and salts (viewed against soft water areas). Although some of these elements may actually seem quite useful for your plants, a lot of them are not and can ultimately lead to deficiencies and/or the build up of toxins – so why risk it? This top product gives you the chance to start with a clean slate!
Settling for nothing short of pure refinement, the V2 Pure 50 Reverse Osmosis System employs a fantastic three-stage filtration process. Water is guided through a sediment pre-filter to remove particles of up to 5 microns in size, an activated carbon block filter to remove contaminants such as chlorine and colourants, and a Thin Film Composite (TFC) RO membrane to remove heavy metals, hardness-forming minerals and nitrates and phosphates.
The professional-looking, convenient-sized unit has been put together using premium parts and includes several neat touches that prolong the product lifespan and enhance user friendliness. You'll find a flow restrictor/manual flush valve manages the level of water able to enter the all-important RO membrane whilst also accommodating regular flushes of it for good maintenance. Then there's the integral pressure gauge, which clearly and accurately indicates when the RO membrane needs flushing out or replacing – again helping to keep the V2 Pure 50 Reverse Osmosis System in peak condition.
Designed to produce up to 190 litres of purified water per day, the V2 Pure 50 Reverse Osmosis System is supplied with all the required pipework and fittings to tap into your mains (a self-piercing water connector, drain clamp, 6m of ¼ RO flexible tubing (2m white/2m red/2m blue), a wall-mounting bracket, and a filter housing removal tool) plus instructions from the manufacturer.Learn More

Any plumber will tell you that when you're dealing with high pressures and screw connections, using PTFE Tape is absolutely essential to ensure a water tight seal. Simply wrap some PTFE Tape around the male thread of your screw fit component before screwing on the female thread component to avoid any leaks. We especially recommend this when using our 25mm irrigation components due to the high pressures created by 25mm Pumps.Learn More

Although Bluelab products are built to last, any damage or long term deterioration of the pH probe used by the Bluelab Guardian Monitor, Bluelab Combo Meter and Bluelab PH meter will then create the need for a replacement. The Bluelab pH Probe connects up to all of the aforementioned meters and is fully waterproof, easy to clean and less fragile than glass electrodes thanks to the tough polypropylene barrel. It also comes with a two metre cable and a suction cup so you do have the option of permanently submerging the probe in your tank. Requires regular calibration with a pH buffer to maintain accuracy levels.
from £6.95This innovative duct tape combines an aluminium foil surface with an extra durable rubber adhesive for a long lasting heat proof fixing. Unlike gaffa tape, 3M Silver Duct Tape has a highly reflective outer surface that protects the adhesive from the effects of high heat and light often common in grow room applications. This means that it will never lose grip - your taping will be as secure at the end of your crop as it was at the beginning. Highly recommended. Learn More
from £5.50It is possible to test the pH of your nutrient solution without using electronic meters. We offer a cheap and simple to use manual pH tester. Learn More
from £19.95
After purchasing a meter or pen from the best range of measuring equipment on the market, you'll want to make sure that your Bluelab product is adequately protected against the odd bump but still easy to use when required. The robust Bluelab Carry Case can comfortably accommodate a single Bluelab Combo Meter, Bluelab pH Meter, Bluelab pH Pen or Bluelab cF Pen, conveniently letting you take readings from your chosen instrument without having to unpack it. There are pockets for spare meter probes, an internal strap that lets you tidily tuck away any loose cables and an external strap if you need to hang or carry the case.
from £18.95The Jumbo Hanging Drying Rack is an innovative bit of kit featuring eight levels of fine mesh which are perfect for drying your crops in a quick, safe and effective way. Circular in construction, each level of the drying rack measures 55cm in diameter, giving you a very large combined drying area to use. The rack can be hung either way up and measures a total of 160cm in height when suspended. Ingeniously, the circular compartmentalised design allows you to flip the rack over during the drying process to ensure consistent and even drying of your crop. A surefire winner, which were sure every grower will love. Learn More

Why monthly income plans are best bet for conservative investors
December 20, 2011
Nikhil Walavalkar , ET Bureau
Monthly income plans , or MIPs as they are popularly known, are in bad shape. According to Value Research, an independent mutual fund tracking agency, mutual funds in the hybrid-debt-oriented conservative category, under which most MIPs fall, delivered an average returns of 3.03% in the past year. "The weak performance by these schemes can be primarily attributed to the fall in the stock markets, as all these schemes have some exposure to equities. But, hereon, these schemes can deliver for an investor with an investment horizon of at least two years," says Abhinav Angirish, managing director, investonline.in, an online mutual fund distribution entity.
From the frying pan...
June 21, 2002
Faced with the inevitable, the government has done what it had to. It has agreed to guarantee UTI's borrowings to the tune of Rs 1,000 crore. Armed with the guarantee, the Trust can now raise funds from the market (and at a more affordable rate than otherwise) to meet its repayment obligations under the two monthly income schemes due for redemption at the end of the month. Estimates of the extent of shortfall vary. But what is beyond doubt is that the UTI's Development Reserve Fund (DRF)

Small investors' investment options
February 20, 2004
Ashish Gupta
Stock markets are booming. They are a tempting place again to make some money. Small investors are perpetually in search of investment options which give regular returns of over 9 %. Most investors, particularly small investors, are facing this challenge. Most of the investments in today's scenario do not give assured returns of 9% or more. The only exceptions are the Varishta Bima Yojana floated some time ago and the pension plans of Life Insurance Corporation of India. An interesting option available in today's scenario is the monthly income plans (MIP)
Options for debt investors
May 23, 2010
SRIKALA BHASHYAM , ET Bureau
When the chips are down for the equity markets, it is natural for investors to look at other options and invariably, fixed return products turn attractive. Unlike in the past, individual investors have not been panicky in the last few weeks, despite the continued downtrend in the global markets. One of the reasons could be the fact that many investors are still weary of the equity markets after having lost heavily during the earlier corrections. And many of those who made an entry into equity more than three years ago are probably still holding at a negative portfolio if they had not continued with the investment process.
Balance in portfolio is the best strategy now
June 26, 2011
Srikala Bhashaym , ET Bureau
At regular intervals, the equity markets make you feel they are the least-preferred avenue. But history has also shown that those who ignore such feelings and go bargain hunting during tough market conditions are the ones who make money over a period of time. It is a simple strategy but difficult to implement. The challenges more often than not come from the environment . It is easier to go with the tide than swim against it, and it is no different with the stock markets.
MFs now turn to fixed maturity plans
June 29, 2004
Arun Iyer , TNN
BANGALORE: Tax benefit is always a major selling point. With the markets turning volatile in the run up to the Budget, some of the mutual funds are turning aggressive on the fixed maturity plan (FMP) schemes in a bid to attract money from large high-net worth individuals (HNIs) and corporates. The FMP is being sold on a dual sales plank ? a risk-free product compared to a monthly-income plant (MIPs) and a tax-free return if held on for a longer period. "Returns are tax-free in the hands of the investor and this has made FMPs a hot item.
Query corner: Mutual fund
October 25, 2010
Narayan Krishnamurthy
Equity investing works best over long term I am 25. I want to invest Rs 50,000 in 23 equity-oriented mutual funds for 15-18 months. But I am wary of entering the market at this stage, as mutual fund NAVs are quoting at high levels. Should I wait for the NAVs to come down, or should I invest now? Is a demat account necessary for investing in mutual funds? ? Abhay Dhar For a 25-year old, you are very risk-averse. Your apprehension on the NAVs being high at the moment is valid.
After simputer, it's the turn of low-cost 'Kaii'
August 19, 2002
Rahul Sachitanand , TNN
BANGALORE: Low-cost computing devices are getting more popular. Close on the heels of devices like Simputer, iStation from iNabling Technologies and Aparate from Sasken Communication and Technologies' comes Kaii. The developer version of this device from Bangalore-based Infomart (India) will be launched in September or October this year and will be followed by the commercial launch in March '03. Devesh R Agarwal, MD, Infomart(India) told The Economic Times that the initial price of Kaii would be around Rs 5,000 to Rs 10,000.
MIPs paying regular dividends
July 11, 2009
M Allirajan , TNN
COIMBATORE: The strong performance of equity markets in the past four months has put monthly income plans (MIPs) on a firm footing, enabling most funds in the category to generate good enough gains to make regular dividend payments. And MIPs with higher equity exposure have outperformed their peers by a huge margin. Volatile debt markets and weak capital markets had pushed many MIPs into the red and they were not able to pay dividends regularly early this year due to lack of adequate distributable surplus.

Following last year's Do As People Do EP, Beecher's Fault are back with a new single, "Life In This Light." The new track is a complex hybrid, adorning the band's folky rock with soulful, gospel-inspired backing vocals and ambient guitars, all of which get their moment to shine through a spare arrangement built on the rush and lull of complicated rhythmic patterns. And then just when you've caught up with the flow, the song launches into it's final third, a driving rock beat with some classic rock guitar figures and vocoder vocals.
The song is accompanied by a lyric video with disconcertingly busy city-life images juxtaposed with sweeping landscape images, further emphasizing the duality of the music and the lyric's preoccupation with maintaining perspective. Watch below.

The multi-talented, multi-instrumentalist Heidi Lynne Gluck is best known to many as a utility player and session woman to the stars (including stints with Juliana Hatfield's Some Girls and Margot & the Nuclear So and Sos). But after a period of relative quiet, she's spent the last couple of years focusing on her own material. In 2015, Gluck released her debut EP The Only Girl In The Room, a beautifully rootsy 5-song collection on which she was the sole performer.
In advance of her new full-length album Pony Show, due August 26th on Lotuspool Records, Gluck has released the single "Mercury Rising," a rolling, melodic song with a vaguely "Man Who Sold The World" vibe that showcases her breezy, drawling voice and imagery rich lyrics. See below for Pony Show's full track listing.

2. Mercury Rising
3. Sadness Is Psychedelic

Last we heard from the extra-talented Brittany Campbell, she was reckoning with "Sexy Darth Vader" in an ambitious and extremely fun to watch video. Now the New Jersey singer, songwriter, and producer is back with a slightly more chill lyric video for her excellent song "Mean." But this being Brittany Campbell, don't expect some basic lyrics-scrolling-over-a-slideshow clip. "Mean" is an alluring trip, animated by the artist herself, that serves the song perhaps better than a distracting concept video might do.
This is the first single from her upcoming Stay Gold Pt. 2. You can buy the single (and check out Stay Gold Pt. 1) over on Campbell's Bandcamp.

Brittany Campbell: Artist Of The Week
The Upset Victory, "Don't Give Up The Night"
Los Angeles-based artist Edidion has been making a dent on the OurStage charts as far back as 2012, with a bunch of Top 40 and Top 10 placements, as well as several weeks on the Best of the Best rankings. He released a critically acclaimed EP last fall, and is back now with a brand new single, "Power." Spare production lets Edidion's voice come to the fore, riding a great hook and propulsive beat. "Power" is a great listen as-is, but I couldn't help thinking that the open feel of the track lends itself to potential remixes, and could well become a dancefloor banger. You can listen below.
Rock and roll trio The Figgs have released their 12th (!) studio album, On The Slide. Coming just a year after their acclaimed Other Planes Of Here LP, the new album continues the band's evolution from their origins as amped-up guitar-driven rockers to perfecters of concise cosmic pop. As ever, the band is tight as hell, adorning On The Slide's 10 tracks with minimal overdubs – some guitar textures, harmonies, and/or a subtle synthesizer or traditional keyboard part (including some nice solos by recent auxiliary member Ted Collins). "Just The Facts" finds the band at their funkiest, while "Open G Capo Position 3" bears some '70s prog rock influence (and I mean that in the best possible way). "Connecting Brains" is based on a jagged guitar riff, but still remains mellow; a wholly phased-out jam that sets the tone for the album. The Figgs will tour sporadically through the summer and into fall, so check out dates here. On The Slide is available on CD, limited edition vinyl, and digital download.

New Limited Edition 7″ Single From Blondfire
Here We Go Magic: 'Be Small'
blondfire somehow gets better with each release. They've just released a new single, and the B side alone is addictive as hell. Definitely more indie pop than anything else, and both songs bear elements of straight rock and that elusive thing once known as alternative. In any case, you'll hear some killer Edge-guitar-riff homage there along with shades of chilled-out Beck and you're just gonna love it.
blondfire is mainly Erica Driscoll, working most frequently in tandem with producer Wally Gagel, and the new single is "Pleasure" (b/w "Domino"). With only 500 copies pressed, this is sure to sell out soon, so grab it while you can. You can hear both songs in advance below. Buy the vinyl here.

Odds of Hanging On
As long as good information never goes out of style, librarians will have job security. They may ply their trade in another guise—"media specialist," "information technician," "content coordinator"—but they know who they are.
They're librarians.
As long as there are friends settling bets, there will be librarians who can supply the answer that nets the winner the jackpot.
As long as there are "Trivial Pursuit" tournaments, there will be lifelines to, in many cases, librarians.
If you can put up with the stress of dealing with your less-well-informed fellow human beings and the often-frustrating lack of full employment, you can hang in there.

A few minutes later I received an automated email informing me that my phone was too "new" and that they did not have an unlock code. They attempted to coerce me into purchasing a "deeper" and more thorough search for the unlock code. At this point, the whole thing started sounding fishy. I went to a different website and there I was successful in obtaining a sim unlock code.
I tried contacting their support, each time an instant auto-response email came back informing me that someone would get back with me within 24 hours. Nobody from this company has responded. [continued below]....
I used a gift card I received for Christmas when I made this purchase and for that reason, disputing the charges appears to be a long and tedious process. I am out of $16.95 but hopefully this report will prevent anyone else from getting scammed.
If they refund the money, I'll be happy to retract this report (provided that this website gives me the ability to do so).
