The issue discussed in this old one:
and this less old one:
just had me tearing hair out for a cool minute.
To summarize: I accidentally hit the little "< Collapse Menu" button, which shrinks the sidebar to icons-only view. So I intentionally clicked it a second time to make it expand. But on the next page I clicked away to, it went ahead and collapsed itself, then from that point on it would refuse to stay expanded.
Logged into the site in another browser--> same behavior. Drat!
Created a new admin user just to check--> when logged into that user, the sidebar behaved as expected. I clicked the button to expand/collapse it several times, navigate to different pages, all worked as it supposed to.
Logged back into the other (main) admin, and issue was still there. I tried monkeying with that user a bit, changing the password, changing it's role... nothing help, it's like that user was cursed to to have a collapsed menu forever.
So I took the path of least resistance: logged into the new admin, deleted the affected user (attributing all the posts to this new user), then recreated it, using the same email, password and username.
Now when I log into this recreated user, all is well. I could even click the little button and it would do what it's supposed to. All's well; it's just 20 minutes or so that I can't get back. Oh well.
Just thought I'd share my resolution in case someone else is going hairless out there fighting with their sidebar menu that won't stay open.

ORCHARD MESA, Colo. (KKCO) -- An fire in Orchard Mesa completely destroyed a building just before noon Sunday.
According to the Central Orchard Mesa Fire Department fire chief, a call came in at 11:40 a.m. about an outdoor building at 3171 B Road on fire.
The property owner had allegedly been welding something inside the building when a spark caught nearby material on fire. The man was inside his house when he heard an explosion, and he emerged to see the building engulfed in flames.
The metal, 50 x 60 foot building was a total loss, estimated at $150,000. Everything inside -- worth about $350,000 -- was also destroyed.

Photos: Saul Alvarez-Ryan Rhodes Final Mexico Presser
By Miguel Rivera
Saul "Canelo" Alvarez is ready for his first defense of the WBC super welterweight title, which takes place on Saturday June 18 at Arena VFG in Tlajomulco, Jalisco (6:00 pm). Alvarez and Ryan Rhodes, his official challenger, were face to face at the final press conference held at the Pan American Volleyball Stadium, with a squad of local media, national and international media.
"The birth of a new idol in Mexico, a young man who leads from border to border and coast to coast, with bravery, courage, heart, dignity and the honor of being Mexican," said Jose Sulaiman, WBC President.
Eric Gomez, of Golden Boy Promotions, thanked all of the sponsors for their support in order to bring the first defense of Saul Alvarez to Guadalajara. The fight is going to be broadcast on HBO and Televisa, whihc are the major television stations in the United States and Mexico.
On his turn at the microphone, "El Canelo" said he was grateful and happy for those who support him:
"I'm very happy because this is what we were dreaming about, even before I was a world champion, and that was to make the first defense in Guadalajara - and we have complied with that. We always take our work very seriously and prepare 100% for the fight. As I told my manager, we do not like to talk much, we'll just show everything in the ring. Rhodes says he'll knock me out, but I do my talking in the ring, and that is where I'll teach him respect .'
Meanwhile, the challenger Ryan Rhodes advised Canelo to expect a real war in the ring. Even the European fighter recalled that when Matthew Hatton faced Alvarez in March, this was not a natural junior middleweight, but this time Alvarez will be in the ring with a real junior middleweight.
"I came to win, in my view there is no other outcome than winning his title and I'll taking it back to my country," he said.
Heavyweight vs Light Middleweight, just like Chavez Jr vs Zbik....disgrace.Comment by knockoutkid on 06-17-2011
Its ridiculous because you know Alvarez will probably put on 20lbs overnight! whatever water sapping drugs theyre using need to be banned! or everyone needs to know about them and use them.Comment by Control- on 06-17-2011

I actually think this is a step up for Canelo. He didn't want to fight Austin; however, Rhodes is not a push-over. He may go for even tougher competition depending on how this fight goes.Post a Comment - View More User Comments (23)

|Mathematical Optimization of Procedures for Cryoprotectant Equilibration Using a Toxicity Cost Function
|January 10, 2012
|Cryopreservation nearly universally depends on the equilibration of cells and tissues with high concentrations of permeating chemicals known as cryoprotective agents, or CPAs. Despite their protective properties, CPAs can cause damage as a result of osmotically-driven cell volume changes, as well as chemical toxicity. In this study, we have used previously published data to determine a toxicity cost function, a quantity that represents the cumulative damage caused by toxicity. We then used this cost function to define and numerically solve the optimal control problem for CPA equilibration, using human oocytes as representative cell type with high clinical relevance. The resulting toxicity-optimal procedures are predicted to yield significantly less toxicity than conventional stepwise procedures. In particular, our results show that toxicity is minimized during CPA addition by inducing the cell to swell to its maximum tolerable volume and then loading it with CPA while in the swollen state. This counterintuitive result is considerably different from the conventional stepwise strategy, which involves exposure to successively higher CPA concentrations in order to avoid excessive shrinkage. The procedures identified in the present study have the potential to significantly reduce damage due to toxicity and warrant further investigation.

All aboard the universal credit bus
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Housing and also in Finance
National Housing Federation welcomes key universal credit changes
Salix Homes is using a community bus to help tenants get ready for universal credit which is being introduced in Salford this summer.
Salix Homes, an ALMO responsible for the management of 8,500 council homes across central Salford, is hitting the road with Manchester's music station Key 103 and their community bus.
The bus will be parked at Tesco Extra in Pendleton on July 5. Salix Homes' money advice team (MAT) will talk to people about changes to the benefit system and offer advice on budgeting. Representatives from Salford Credit Union will also be on board the bus.
Sian Grant, interim director of customer and neighbourhood services at Salix Homes, said: "We understand that this is a difficult and challenging time for people claiming benefits and we're working with our partners to make sure we're able to let our tenants know about the changes so they can understand how it will affect them and take any necessary action."
In September 2013, Salix Homes was selected by Salford City Council as the chosen landlord to take ownership of the 8,500 council homes in a proposed stock transfer, subject to the outcome of a tenant ballot expected this year and approval by government.

Mystic — A Stonington police officer was forced to shoot a large dog that police say attacked and seriously injured a woman inside the Marriott Residence Inn on Route 27 at about 3 p.m. Sunday.
The officer also suffered minor bites to his hand and arm when he tried to help the female caretaker of the dog get control of the animal after the attack. The woman was taken to Lawrence + Memorial Hospital in New London. The officer, whom police did not identify, also received medical attention.
Police Capt. Jerry Desmond said the woman was attacked by the dog inside a second floor hallway. When police arrived, the officer found the caretaker of the dog struggling to control the animal. When the officer tried to help he was bitten, and then shot the dog.
Police said the officer was then able to corral the dog in a stairwell away from other guests until Christina Donovan, a Groton Town Police animal control officer, arrived. At about 3:40 p.m, Donovan emerged from the building, guiding the dog to the Stonington animal control truck with the use of a noose at the end of a long pole.
The black dog, which had blood dripping from its shoulder and abdomen after being struck with a .45 caliber bullet, whimpered as it refused to walk up the ramp into the truck. As police and Old Mystic firefighters tried to coax the dog into the van, one officer stood a few feet way, his gun drawn.
They were finally able to get the dog into the Groton animal control truck by putting a blue blanket over it and lifting it up and into a cage in the truck. The dog was taken for veterinary treatment.
Desmond said police, who are investigating the incident, are not yet sure of the relationship between the victim and the caretaker. The 128-room hotel, which was not evacuated during the incident, allows guests to have pets in their rooms.

Tess of the D'Urbervilles
by Thomas Hardy
Tess of the D'Urbervilles Phase IV: "The Consequence," Chapter Twenty-Five Summary
- Angel wanders around that evening after Tess has gone to bed, thinking about what has happened.
- He hadn't meant to tell her he loved her—he hadn't meant to fall in love at all.
- But he's not toying around with her, either. He's got a conscience, and doesn't want to break any hearts.
- He decides to go home to see his folks for a few days, and talk it over with them.
- He's almost finished studying farming, and will soon be ready to start one of his own. He tells himself that it would make more sense to marry a woman who understands the business.
- But he decides to go see his parents anyway.
- The next morning at breakfast one of the girls comments that Mr. Clare isn't there.
- Dairyman Crick says that Angel has gone home to see his parents—probably to plan for the future, since he's almost finished his time at the dairy.
- Marian, Izz, Retty, and of course Tess all sigh and look sad at the news.
- Meanwhile, Angel is riding his horse towards his parents' house, thinking things over. Should he marry Tess? Would they be happy together? Does he really love her, or does he just have the hots for her?
- He's carrying a basket with some black puddings and a bottle of mead as a gift from Mrs. Crick to his parents. (Culinary note: black puddings aren't some tasty chocolate treat. They're basically sausages made out of blood.)
- As he passes the church where his father preaches, he sees a young woman—it's Mercy Chant, the daughter of his parents' friend and neighbor. They hope he'll marry her someday.
- He decides she hasn't seen him, so he's not obliged to say hi.
- He gets to his parents' house just as they're all sitting down to breakfast.
- His brothers, Felix and Cuthbert, are there as well.
- Mr. Clare is an old man to have such a young son, and he's very set in his ways and thoroughly convinced that his way of viewing the world and religion is the right one.
- At least he's sincere about it, though.
- His family greets him, and Angel sits down to breakfast with them.
- They notice that he's lost some of his fancy polish—he's started to behave "like a farmer."
- After breakfast, he goes for a walk with his brothers. They might be noticing his lack of social graces, but he's starting to notice their closed-mindedness.
- Their parents, meanwhile, have gone out to do good work among the poor in their community, as they do everyday.
- At lunch, he looks around for the black puddings, but his mother tells him that they had given them to some poor folks.
- Angel then looks for the mead, and they tell him it was too alcoholic to drink at the table, so they've put it in the medicine cabinet with the brandy.
- Angel is disappointed—he likes both mead and black puddings, and wanted his family to enjoy them so that he could tell Mrs. Crick that her gift was appreciated.

About Us
What are Special Rating Areas (SRAs)?
Special Rating Areas were previously known as City Improvement Districts. These are geographic areas in which property owners have agreed to pay for services which top-up the basic services supplied by the municipality. Most often these top-up services focus on extra security and cleansing.
The Municipal Property Rates Act 2004 makes provision for the formation of SRAs. In Cape Town the SRAs are established and governed by the most recent municipal by-law: Special Rating Area By-law 2012.
How did the Woodstock Improvement District (WID) begin?
In the early 2000s several local business leaders became increasingly concerned about the signs of urban decay in the Woodstock area and the safety of employees travelling between transport hubs and places of employment. They initiated the Woodstock Upliftment Project which subsequently led to the establishment of a Business Forum, which wanted to focus on security, cleaning and greening. With support and input from City Council the decision to initiate the process of establishing a fully-fledged City Improvement District began. The support of a majority of commercial property owners was sought and obtained. In May 2005 the City of Cape Town approved the establishment of the Woodstock Improvement District.
Since July 2005 the WID has been operational and the positive results are there for all to see. In co-operation with its partners (City of Cape Town, SAPS, property and business owners) the WID has made and continues to make a constructive contribution to making Woodstock a desirable place to live, work and play.
Which are the core responsibilities of the WID?
- To supplement and enhance the basic services offered by the City of Cape Town;
- To facilitate a co-operative approach between the City and private sector in the provision of municipal services;
- To co-ordinate the provision of a well-maintained, safer, cleaner and greener environment for those who work, visit and invest in Woodstock;
- To market Woodstock as a prime locality and preserve its district identity.
The WID has expanded its initial mandate of safety and cleaning to include social upliftment activities in the area and since 2010 employs a qualified full-time social worker.
How is the WID funded?
A levy over and above the existing property rates is charged by the City of Cape Town on all business properties within the WID area of operation (see map). This levy, expressed as cents in the Rand, is based on the municipal valuation of the property and is payable by all property owners. These funds are paid over to the WID, which in turn operates according to an approved business plan and budget.
How does the WID operate?
The WID is a Section 21 company (Registration number 2006/015254/08) with a board of directors representing local commercial property owners. The board provides financial and operational oversight and strategic direction, and develops the business plan and budget of the WID.
The current board of directors:
- Teun Baartman (chairperson)
- Mukhtar Joonas
- Andre Potgieter
- Tammi Glick
- Craig Hall
- Gregg Huntingford
Day-to-day operations are carried out by the WID General Manager, Chris Lloyd, who is assisted by the Operational Manager, John Julies, the Office Administrator, Nicola le Roux, and the Field Worker, Abigail Abrahams.
Security and cleaning are performed by companies contracted by the WID. In addition the WID supervises two Law Enforcement Officers committed to the WID area by the City of Cape Town.
The WID is accountable to its members, who are commercial property owners in the WID area and are registered as such. It reports on its management and finances on an annual basis at the Annual General Meeting, which all registered commercial property owners are entitled to attend.

GM recalls 83k trucks and SUVs over ignition troubles
Last year was fairly brutal for General Motors, which initiated numerous recalls spanning many vehicles covering a roster of different problems. As 2014 rolled over into the new year, GM managed to slip in one more recall, this one over ignition troubles potentially affecting 83,572 trucks and SUVs. As with other recalls it has had for ignition problems, this latest one could lead to stalling, among other things, putting drivers at risk. The affected models span between 2007 and 2014.

This is a quick tutorial on how to fade between colors with an Arduino and Common Anode RGB LED.
How to fade between colors with the Common Anode RGB LED, included in Maker Shed's Ultimate Arduino Microcontroller Pack.
Found this just after I finished something very similar. Thought I'd post the code here as an add-on. The following will slowly fade the common anode RGB LED from random color to random color. I think it makes a nice night light or decoration…
/* RBG LED Fader. I used a common anode RGB LED, which means
the common pin should be connected to +5V, and red, green, and
blue go to PWM digital outputs. LOW=LED off, HIGH=LED on. I
used a 180 ohm resistor on red, and 100's on green and blue.
int redPin = 9;
int greenPin=10;
int bluePin=11;
int oldRed=255; // Start out with red off…
int oldGreen=255; // and green…
int oldBlue=255; // and blue.
void setup() {
pinMode(redPin,OUTPUT); // Set pin modes. Not sure this is necessary
analogWrite(redPin,oldRed); // Initial RGB settings.
Serial.begin(9600); // Open serial for debug info.
void loop() {
int newRed=random(0,255); // Choose new values for red,
int newGreen=random(0,255); // green,
int newBlue=random(0,255); // and blue.
int redMod=0; // The 'mod' variables will hold
int blueMod=0; // the adjustments we will make
int greenMod=0; // to move from old to new color.
float r1,r2,b1,b2,g1,g2; // To store intermediate calculations.
Serial.print("("); // This block sends the next

I'm sorry, there's something wrong with the quotation marks after copying and pasting them to the site. If you edit them, replacing them with fresh " marks, it will compile. (Or, it did for me.) You can tell you have it right when the "(" in line 33 (and the quoted segments of the following 6 lines) turn blue instead of staying grey in the arduino editor.
As an alternative, just delete all 7 of the Serial.print and Serial.println lines, plus the Serial.begin() above. They were really only there for debugging/watching the color fade process. They do not affect the LED behavior at all.
It's like cutting and pasting turns the " characters in my code into something that looks like double quotes to humans, but something else entirely to the compiler.
tl;dr; replace the double quotation marks in the seven Serial.print lines with fresh " marks that you type youself, or else delete those seven lines.
can someone please help me figure out how to transfer this from the arduino to a stripboard please. very new to this and circuits in general so any help would be great
Great project, but what I'm really wondering is how you take the concept into powering something slightly larger. The LED is nice, but the amount of light is far from impressive.
How would you upgrade it to a globe light that's visible in a standard-lit room?

I lent money to an Theater Company who then gave to these people who promised them the sun moon and the stars to fund their projects. Twelve months later they have nothing and I haven't been able to get my money back. They have cut off communication saying they have been riped off and they are hiring attorneys. When you ask for documentation, of course they don't have any.
After reading on Ripoff Report the same thing that happen to them has happened to me. They should be held accountable for their fraud
The people listed below are frauds. They will lie, make up stories, use religion against you. This is a direct qoute from "Ric Lanham" 'Cornerstone is at a ledge of liquid funds'. That was in May 2012. Of course no more correspondence since then.

S.S. Khandalla to drop anchor in legendary music studio
From left, Ryan Langdon, Justin Tousignan, Danaan Pederson and Evan Stoney have combined their musical talents to form S.S. Khandalla.
When it comes to making music, S.S. Khandallaãs Ryan Langdon, Evan Stoney, Justin Tousignan, and Danaan Pederson seem to have a knack for writing songs people want to hear.
And itãs not just their parents who think so.
S.S. Khandalla was named the best high school rock band on mainland Nova Scotia Nov. 10, after wowing the judges at CBC Mainstreetãs first School of Rock competition in Halifax.
The boys ã students at Avon View and Horton high schools ã played two of their originals, Lady Lady and Rufio, for a packed in-studio audience and countless CBC listeners. And, although it was their second live performance, the judges said watching S.S. Khandalla play was like being at a real rock show.
ãIt was kind of nerve-wracking, especially since it was broadcast on the radio,ã said Ryan Langdon, the bandãs lead singer and one of two guitar players.
Despite their nerves, the lads of S.S. Khandalla showed up in matching floral-print shirts, entertained their audience with amusing stage banter and rocked out when the time came, earning their distinctive title as the best high school band on the mainland, and winning recording time in CBCãs Studio H.
Langdon, 16, says one of the highlights of the competition, aside from winning the grand prize, was playing in front of a larger crowd and experiencing the realities of a live performance firsthand.
ãWhen we did our encore my guitar strap broke and Danaan broke a drum stickãÎ everything kind of fell apart, but it was fun,ã he said.
ãI had to play the second song sitting (on the stage) cross-legged.ã
To get to this point in the competition, S.S. Khandalla created a profile on CBC Mainstreetãs page, from which they were selected by School of Rock judges to advance to the semi-finals along with four other bands, and were voted into the final, in-studio competition by CBC listeners.
ãThe day before voting endedãÎwe had dropped down to fourth place so we werenãt sure we were even going to make it in.ã
Langdon says getting to the finals was a long, stressful process but it encouraged them to starting campaigning for votes and introducing people to their music.
Now, Langdon says, itãs back to their bassistãs basement to write more songs and practice before recording a radio-ready single in Studio H in January or February of next year.
ãWeãre hoping to just keep messing around Evanãs basement and eventually start playing some more shows once we have a larger selection of songs to play.ã

Effective as of September 2012 Leaside/Rolph Road Daycare introduced "Emergent Curriculum" which follows the ELECT (Early Learning for Every Child Today) Principles. Emergent Curriculum is a non-traditional style of teaching that presents children with the gift of discovering the world around them by encouraging them to explore life through their own interests and passions. It is "Child led" or "Child based" learning as opposed to "teacher directed" learning.
Emergent Curriculum is beneficial to your child's development, by validating a child's curiosity in learning and enabling them to follow their passions; it lets them have the character building satisfaction of discovering by oneself while focusing on the child's strengths and improving on their weaknesses. The result is it helps create a confident, self-assured child, hungry and eager to discover the world around them.

No doubt she tells her boyfriends "You are just so adorable I could eat you up!" too…
Eating bacon could make you a cannibal… if you are already a pig!
So her talking about the possibility of beginning to get a liking for the taste of "long pig" is simply a ploy to get Donna's bacon.
You beat me to the punch! I was thinking that it was just a ploy to get more bacon!
Yeach, forgot all about that ' ' term. Now the images remembered from finding out about it……need – brain – wipe.
Long pig; pig. Not too different in taste….
If this were in color, I think Donna would be green.
Yes, long pig, the other white meat. Some say that cannibals gain strength an longevity from their familiar provender. See the film "Ravenous" about that. Also that once you do no other food will fill that space you made with human flesh. I heard it smells like bacon from those who have been in places where that was going on. Not like the burnt oven smell from the Death Camps of the Germans though.

AbstractThe characteristic function of the folded normal distribution and its moment function are derived. The entropy of the folded normal distribution and the Kullback–Leibler from the normal and half normal distributions are approximated using Taylor series. The accuracy of the results are also assessed using different criteria. The maximum likelihood estimates and confidence intervals for the parameters are obtained using the asymptotic theory and bootstrap method. The coverage of the confidence intervals is also examined.

First of all thank you for visiting my profile :)
My name is Aneta. I'm Polish but I live in England since 2007. I've learned crocheting from my mum when I was a little girl. I work part time (as an Accountant) just so I can spend more time with my little son Sebastian. I recently started organising Crocheting Courses in my local town Southport to share the passion of Crocheting with others as it is a fantastic hobby and so practical too! With time I've been asked to make different things to order and as there was no patterns for them I decided I will design them myself. I enjoy designing and making things from scratch so I will be adding a lot more patterns to my portfolio. :)
Thank you,
Aneta Izabela
Check out my blog for free tutorials and intersting articles on crocheting:
This pillow cover is a combination of different cute stitches like Tulips and flowers. Very girly and sweet.
This pattern has got very detailed description supported by loads of notes and tips. I've also included step by step photo tutorials showing how to make all the tricky parts so all you need to know before purchasing this pattern is how to make: ch, sc, hdc, dc and tr. Rest of it is explained in this pattern.
I've also included my contact details in this pattern so in case you struggle to understand anything you can always contact me with a questions and I will be happy to help.

Home > Community > Health Library > Ventricular Assist Device (VAD)
A ventricular assist device (VAD), also known as a
heart pump, is a mechanical device that helps pump blood from the heart to the
rest of your body.
This picture shows one type of a left-ventricular assist
device (LVAD). This device pulls blood from the left ventricle and pumps it to the
aorta and the rest of the body. Other types of VADs pull blood from the right
ventricle or both ventricles and pump it to the rest of the body. The heart
still pumps some blood on its own. But the VAD helps the heart pump blood
A VAD can be implanted inside the body or worn outside the
body. If it is implanted, surgery is done to place it in the chest area. The
pump part of the VAD is placed in a small space in your upper abdomen. After
the VAD has been implanted, your doctor will make another small incision in
your side to connect the electrical wires that power the device.
The pump part of a VAD can be implanted, but the VAD battery and control
system are worn outside the body. The battery pack and control system can be
worn on a shoulder strap and belt.

Memo to the guests of Koloa Landing at Poipu Beach, a Wyndham Grand Resort
Classic Vacations has been advised by Koloa Landing at Poipu Beach the following updated information regarding their final phase of expansion; Phase III. The expansion began in August of 2014 and is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2016. The expansion will only take place between the hours of 9am and 5:30pm with breaks taken for holidays. All amenities are expected to remain open throughout the expansion process.
A renovation is a remodel or restoration of the existing guest rooms and/or public space. An expansion, such as the one taking place at Koloa Landing, is an addition to the existing resort whereby the current guest rooms and public spaces are not changed or altered. Typically, the impact on the guest is less severe during an expansion. In this case, Koloa Landing will be adding 208 additional villas, a poolside bar & grill, an expansive 13,000 square foot lagoon pool and 10,000 square feet of mixed use function space. Phase III will grow the property into one of the premier resort destinations on Kauai's South Shore.
Resort management is dedicated to doing everything in their power to diminish the impact Phase III may have on guests. The resort expansion will occur in multiple phases to further reduce the amount of active construction taking place at one time, reducing noise. However, projects of this nature usually create some audible or visual impact depending on where guests are within the resort.

Steven Luatua, George Moala, Tevita Li and Tony Woodcock all crossed for the Blues, who notched 17 unanswered first half points when Cheetahs flanker Boom Prinsloo was sinbinned by referee Francisco Pastrana.
The Argentine official bemused with several other decisions, most notably when he ignored his television match official's advice not to award Moala's try after a double movement.
Cheetahs flyhalf Johan Goosen converted Prinsloo's early try and slotted two penalties before he suffered an arm injury in a tackle.
Elgar Watts took over the goalkicking and added a penalty and converted both Cornal Hendricks and Hennie Denniler's second half tries as the Cheetahs continued to attack from all corners but ended their tour of Australia and New Zealand winless.

LAND HO! Is Going to Locarno!
Following it's opening weekend, Aaron Katz and Martha Stepehens' acclaimed Land Ho! will have its international premiere at this year's Locarno Film Festival.
Land Ho! is now playing in select theaters, and opens in more on Friday.
Here's what the critics are saying:
"[Land Ho!] is one of the best, happiest movies of the year. You'll exit better than high. You'll leave on a trampoline."--Wesley Morris, Grantland
"3.5/4 stars...truly disarming...resonates with clarity that stays with you."--Glenn Kenny, RogerEbert.com
"'Land Ho!' is full of surprises, rich in the way it noses around the rocky terrain of aging in an indifferent world through the engaging performances of its two stars. "--Betsy Sharkey, L.A. Times
"Critic's pick....a delightful tale."--Manhola Dargis, The New York Times
"4/5 stars...both actors [Earl Lynn Nelson and Paul Eenhoorn] are superb."--Joshua Rothkopf, Time Out New York
"3.5/4 stars...Katz and Stephens consistently catch the nuances of character that bind the two men to each other, rather than simply tracing the pros and cons of their dispositions, is what gives the film its melancholic yet vibrant resonance."--Chris Cabin, Slant Magazine

Really not. Who uses composite video nowadays? Realistically it is $19 or $24 for the VGA and HDMI respectively, especially in the use cases illustrated in the o-so-funny-and-games video.
Compare this with the Raspberry Pi line and the reason for C.H.I.P to exist is nowhere to be found.
Maybe a competitor for some Arduino use-cases. Maybe.
Agreed. It's bait and switch. "Hey $9 computer.... oh you want better than 480 resolution? Well that's another $10! Oh you want to connect to a modern HDTV? That's another $5".
And honestly, at these low specs, I could buy a used 1ghz, 512 mb, 4gb desktop PC for about $25 and it would have VGA and at least be able to run some flavor of Windows and be upgradeable.
I predict a lot of people will buy the 1.0 product and it will become obsolete quicker than you can say "apple stock". The 2.0 product might be more interesting. Can't believe they are charging 10k for the "higher end" watch. Bragging rights for rich folks, but rings pretty hollow considering what you get.
Apple Watch will probably go obsolete as quick as any iOS product, which takes a few years before they stop supporting it. The latest iOS 8 still supports the 2011 iPhone 4s. That's much better than Android, I don't think there are any 2011 Android devices that support Android 5.0 without rooting them.
First of all, it needs an iPhone. Don't have one, don't want one.
So you don't have what it requires so you don't want one. Thanks for that. Guess you don't want a furnace because you live in Hawaii so therefore no one else on earth needs a furnace. Apple has sold over 700 million iPhones as of March 2015, even if only 5% buy an Apple Watch it will be a huge success.
Everyone cried that the iPad was ridiculous, it was just a large iPod Touch that cost triple the price. It sold like crazy. The Apple Watch will sell like hotcakes. Apple Watch will sell more in 1 day than all the Android Watches ever sold. Then Samsung will make an exact copy of the Apple Watch, add a SD card and removable battery, and the samsung fanbois will make fun of Apple for not having a micro SD card slot and a removable battery.
Damn, everything's on the Interwebs. Should've known: in the late 90's I once googled (Lycosed?) "Lego porn" as a joke (honestly), and was surprised to find it existed.

You can say google, they were a search provider in the late 90s

Let me say this first, I have played every Final Fantasy game in the main series since 6. I have beaten 7,8,10, and 11. 6 was not beaten because I didn't know where to go at one point and I didn't want to wonder around getting into 5000 random battles to figure it out. Hey I was young, I'll finish it someday. 9 was not beaten because I just flat out did not like it, I know that's hearsay among fans but I disliked the characters, the villains were boring and I had no idea where the plot was going. I consider quitting an MMO beating it so that's why I say I finished 11. I'd like to say for the record I got to level 58 as a thief which was impossible back then cause it took 4 hours to find a freaking group. 12 bored me to forgetting I had the game to play. I hated most of those characters also and the plot was interesting. I liked the Judges, there just weren't enough of them and it got soooooooo dull. I just woke up one day and forgot I had Final Fantasy 12 to play. Maybe one day I'll finish it.
I only say that to establish that I am indeed a fan of the series and have finished a good number of them. That being said, Final Fantasy 13 is a pile of donkey dung (as the angry video game nerd would say). The characters are unlikeable, the plot is nonsensical, the battle system is so stupidly easy I was actually able to take my controller to the bathroom with me during a boss fight (20 hours into the game about) and just keep hitting X and I came back to them still fighting and him nearly dead. Before you say "ew" I washed my hands and the controller so shush.
But the main reason I'm writing this is to let off some steam because I just lost for the 10th time in a row on the 2nd part of the final boss fight, and it's not even my god damned fault. I won't spoil anything here ...not that there is much to spoil. I mean you probably know who the final boss is because he's the only real boss you fight two other times in the game.
Anyway the fight has 3 parts to it with no breaks between. Part 1 is just like the other two times you fight him in the game, by the way this guy is bullshit. No boss fight should tell you "You're taking too long" and then put a doom counter on you. This fight is impossible unless you start out with shrouds and fully buffed every time. It's the only time in the game I actually used those stupid shrouds to buff before a fight, were they only in the game for this guy?
Part 3 of the fight is suppose to be fairly easy, but I don't know I never got to that part. So let's talk about part 2 of the fight. He will shift between two attack forms: light and dark and whenever he shifts he does this spell that will pretty much always cut your party's health from full to about 8% left. It's easy to fix, once you see the spell name come on screen you shift to healing mode real fast, my problem with this attack is it's the only one in the game that removes your action bars. So I can't shift or get the heals ready until he's done casting it and they come back. Even in 7 when Sephiroth casts Supernova you still had the menu.
About halfway through his health he'll start to get nastier with the attacks. All of this is fine and I could manage. No the problem with the fight is that every now and again and several times during the fight (sometimes cast twice in a row) he will cast this spell that has a low chance of instantly killing one of your characters, and if it's the party leader it's game over. I hate bullshit systems like that, I have two other party members alive both of them can resurrect. SO LET THEM. So ok after a couple of tries where that happened every time (It never killed anyone but the leader, I ever switched the leader once) I went online and read about the items to use to make the chance of being hit with insta-death really low. I got all of the items and equipped them on all 3 characters.
The next fight after I get the items is going great, I destroy the first form easier then ever before and save the summon even, I never see the bullshit doom counter, kickass. The 2nd form has about 6.8 million hit points and I got him to 1.5 million. It's getting difficult but I'm surviving and doing some damage, BOOM "Just....like that" I hear Lightning's death cry. WHAT?!? It did it again? 10 to 12 attempts on this boss overall and every single time even with the items my party leader randomly gets one shot. I'm done with this fucking game. I am so glad I rented it off of gamefly and didn't pay jack for it. For the first time in 12 years, since I was in my mid teens I break a controller. That's it, I'm going to youtube and watching the ending to this crap story, the only thing that will make me happy is if Hope gets decapitated and his body torn in half and thrown into a raging volcano.

Off-Campus Dining:
A lot of places to go
Off-Campus Dining:
One place to eat near the school is curry-n-a-hurry, which is pretty yummy, and you can actually get a student discount on certain meal sizes if you ask about it. There's a place called drumsticks, but I've never eaten there, but I know they have chicken and fish galore for decent costs. Everything else is along University Drive, and you can pretty much find out the places there online.
Off-Campus Dining:
There's a lot of great options, and most of them are on the main street! And there are good vegetarian options.
Off-Campus Dining:
There are soooo many restaurants in the area from Caribbean to Asian, to Italian to American. Costs vary its all about what you can afford
Off-Campus Dining:
I would rather spend my money on off-campus dining than in the cafeteria.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
The nearby restaurants vary in style and culture. Incoming students are sure to have a large variety of choices. The only downfall is that restaurants are very hard to get to if you don't have a car. A cab can cost up to $20, and the bus stops are far and only run every hour until 6 p.m. The nearest restaurant is about a mile away, so students should make friends with those who have cars.
Restaurants are kept nice, and the expense of a meal out can vary greatly. Cuisine ranges from Chinese to Mexican and even Jamaican. Although there are many restaurants, there are not many that tend to the needs of vegetarians. A way to counter this is going to restaurants like Cici's Pizza that are all-you- can-eat. Cici's is definitely a recommended restaurant for a college student. It is the most inexpensive, provides a social environment, and gives you a "bang" for your buck.

First of all, let me congratulate you on this great plugin. It really simplifies and speeds up all the translation process.
In one of the sites I'm using it we use a supersized script on the homepage, using each image with a caption to provide the main site messages. We are using a themeforest template called Incidental (link here).
Everything works OK except for the supersized slider captions, that are not being translated. I've checked that the html is valid and that there are no js conflicts, however I can't even get transposh to "recognize" that there is some text there to be translated (when in translation edition mode in the frontend, some icons appear everywhere there is text to be translated, but no in the captions).
What do you suggest we can do to be able to also translate the captions?
Thanks in advance and best regards,

Cover Crops help Organic Producers
In recent blogs, I have passed along some of the ins and outs of using cover crops. No-Till Farmer carried this article on using cover crops in organic systems. It seems to me that cover crops for organic growers are nearly a must. Benefits include weed control and nitrogen management. In addition, because most organic systems include tillage, cover crops can help preserve organic matter.

Nuclear magnetic resonance monitoring of capillary imbibition and diffusion of water into hardened white cement paste91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1467631View Description Hide Description
Nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) experiments monitoring the imbibition (sorption) and diffusion of water into white cement paste are reported. The sample was a 1.3 cm long cylinder (6 mm o.d.) of hardened ordinary white cement paste, with a water/cement ratio of 0.42 containing 0.5% and 2% NaCl. Water proton magnetization and values were obtained as functions of time. Imbibition of and diffusion of and were monitored with NMR at 26 and 30 MHz. The countercurrent water imbibition experiments revealed a two-stage process. A rapid uptake of water, involving about 85% of the total, took place in about 45 min. Maximum saturation was reached in about 2 days. Both stages of the process were well described by a nonlinear diffusion-like equation. Diffusion of both and was characterized by a single diffusion coefficient. The diffusion coefficient for and derived by fitting the data to the diffusion equation, is well predicted by
Temperature dependent magnetic properties of highly chemically ordered films91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1470254View Description Hide Description
Magnetic media using materials with high uniaxial magneto-crystalline anisotropy, combined with a thermal assist to overcome write field limitations have been proposed as one of the potential technologies to extend the areal density of magnetic disk recording beyond the limitations of current technology. Here we present an investigation on structural and temperature dependent magnetic properties of chemically ordered epitaxial thin films. Increasing Ni additions result in a steady reduction of magneto-crystalline anisotropy, saturation magnetization, and Curie temperature. The ability to control thermomagnetic properties over a wide range makes and similar FePt-based pseudo-binary alloys attractive base materials for media applications in thermally assisted magnetic recording.
Drastic coercivity relaxation in amorphous and its dependence on the preparation method91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1471391View Description Hide Description
Amorphous or 2) powders with a wide supercooled liquid region were prepared by high energy ball milling of rapidly quenched ribbons and subsequently hot pressed in the viscous state to receive bulk glasses. Almost complete coercivityrelaxation of the ball milled powders was achieved by annealing. The coercivity of as-milled ribbons drops drastically from more than 2200 Am−1 after 1 h of milling to 14.6 Am−1 after optimum annealing. The coercivity of this powder and that of the as-quenched ribbons (7 Am−1) differs only by the different contributions of surface irregularities to the total coercivity Drastic coercivityrelaxation was also achieved by consolidating the as-milled powders. A minimum coercivity of 30 Am−1 was found for the bulk sample after compaction of 1 h ball milled powders. It is of the same order of magnitude as of cast amorphous rods. The milling-induced coercivity increase as well as the coercivityrelaxation are discussed in terms of the change of magnetic anisotropy and the creation and elimination of stress and shear bands in the amorphous phase.
Magnetoresistance observed by decomposition of the magnetic moment in films91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1473671View Description Hide Description
A ferromagnetic phase, characterized by electron carriers and a high temperature colossal magnetoresistance (HTCMR) dependent on the magnetic moment, and a semiconducting phase, characterized by hole carriers and a low temperature CMR (LTCMR), are observed in thin films by the van der Pauw method. The LTCMR is much more sensitive to the magnetic field than the HTCMR. In the ferromagnetic phase for films with anisotropic moments in two dimensions, a remnant resistivity of the order of Ω m is observed up to 100 K and increases exponentially with both a temperature up to and a magnetic field above 1 T (a positive magnetoresistivity). We found that the ferromagnetic phase below is in a polaronic state with a polaronic mobile conduction, and the carrier density dips near For resistances measured by the four-probe method with line electrodes, low temperature information of the HTCMR is not revealed. The van der Pauw method is more effective for the resistance measurement of a magnetic material than the four-probe method.
Magnetotransport and microstructure of annealed magnetic tunnel junctions91(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1471387View Description Hide Description
We investigated the structural, the magnetic, the magnetotransport, and the tunnelingproperties of junctions with an artificial ferrimagnet as a pinning layer for different Al thickness and oxidation time after isochronal annealing up to 500 °C. The main purpose of these experiments is to find relations between the structural changes upon annealing and the modifications of the physical magnetotransport and barrier properties, which could also be important for the further application of such tunneling elements in spinelectronics. The tunnelingmagnetoresistance(TMR) shows a strong increase up to 37% after annealing at 300 °C accompanied by an improvement of the dielectric stability and the voltage dependence of the TMR. At higher temperature, the TMR starts to decrease. The dielectric stability remains good up to annealing temperatures of 500 °C, indicating an excellent thermal stability of the barrier. All results can be related to thermally induced structural changes of the microstructure which have been determined by Auger depth profiling and complementary methods.
