I use the Section Widget for all our side bar content, but recently we introduced a custom post type, and needed some widgets displayed on only those pages, so I modified the widget to support custom post types. The changes are quite simple, and so I will post them here.
Only one file needs to be modified. That file is
The following function needs to be added somewhere in the file. I added it just after the line at about line 9 that reads:
if(!function_exists('olt_checklist')) {. The function is:
* PSV: Function to get custom post types as an array
function getCustomPostTypes() {
$args = array('_builtin' => false);
$output = 'names'; // names or objects, note names is the default
$operator = 'and'; // 'and' or 'or'
$post_types = get_post_types($args, $output, $operator);
return $post_types;
That simply returns an array of the defined custom post types. Next, we need to add the post types to the array of condition check boxes:
/* PSV: Add all custom post types */
$post_types = getCustomPostTypes();
foreach ($post_types as $post_type) {
$type = get_post_type_object($post_type);
array_push($data, (object) array('id' => $post_type, 'name' => $type->labels->name, 'description' => 'Display this widget on all '.$type->labels->name.'.'));
That should be added just before the line that reads:
$walker = new OLTSpecialPagesChecklistWalker;
Next, we need to add to the condition check, so we know when to display the widget. Just after the code that reads:
case "notfound":
return true;
add the following:
default: // PSV: allow for custom post types
return true;
That's it. With these changes, you will see new check boxes for your custom post types at the bottom of the Special Pages tab.

Then you'll learn key ways to manage your photos in Lightroom, from reviewing photos after a shoot to working with Smart Previews when your photos are offline. This part of the course covers making collections, adding keywords, and much more.
Next, the course introduces the Lightroom Develop module and its features for improving a photo's appearance, including adjusting tone and color, cropping and fixing perspective, converting to black and white, reducing noise, and sharpening. It explores how to make local adjustments with the Adjustment Brush, Radial Filter, Graduated Filter, and Spot Removal tools. The course ends with a look at the most commonly used Lightroom features for sharing photos: exporting, printing, and sharing online.
- Importing photos
- Viewing, sorting, and selecting photos
- Reviewing and rating photos
- Finding photos with keywords and filters
- Cropping and straightening photos
- Fixing perspective with Upright
- Adjusting color and tone
- Targeting edits with the Adjustment Brush
- Sharing photos on Facebook
- Exporting and printing photos
Skill Level Beginner
One thing that can be really disconcerting for a Lightroom user is when files and folders go missing from your Lightroom catalog. And you usually see a warning from Lightroom that a file is missing, you can't work on it, or you'll see a question mark on a folder. In this movie, I want to explain why that happens and help you to avoid the problem. And to fix it when it does happen. One of the most common reasons that you might have files or folders go missing in Lightroom, is that you've moved them, from outside of Lightroom, out in your Operating System.
So, let's go out to my operating system. An let's say that I'm tidying things up, an I realize that this particular photo, this vertical photo that's in my Paris folder, really doesn't belong there. That photo was taken in Sienna, so I want to put it in the Sienna folder. If I move that photo in my operating system, here on the Mac I can just drag it, lightroom won't know where it is. And let's say I go a step further and I move an entire folder. Maybe I'll take that Sienna folder and I'll move it up into my chapter 02 folder, at the top level Now let's go back into Lightroom.
Here in Lightroom, I'm in the Paris folder, and you can see that there is now an exclamation mark at the top right of that photo that I moved outside of Lightroom, from the Paris folder into the Sienna folder. And, when that thumbnail is selected, over in the bar under the Histogram, you can see a notation that the photo is missing. And I won't be able to edit that photo in the Develop module, at least if I haven't made Smart Previews, a subject I'll explain later. Now, take a look in the Folders panel in Lightroom's Library module, and you'll see something else that's missing. That entire Sienna folder is missing, because, you'll remember, that I moved it outside of Lightroom Into another location.
Now when I have a folder missing, if I click on that folder, then you'll see that all of the photos in the folder are marked as missing too. They both have exclamation marks. In this case the best idea is to try to fix the folder, not the individual photos. It's a lot more efficient. So what I need to do is tell Lightroom where I moved this whole Siena folder to. And that will get rid of this question mark. In other words, I'm reestablishing the link between the LIghtroom catalog and the actual location of this folder. To do that, I'll right-click on the folder, I'll choose Find Missing Folder, and I'll go out and find where I've put the folder. Now this isn't something that Lightroom can do for me automatically. I have to remember where I put the folder.
Or if I don't know I'll use the search mechanisms in my operating systems to go out and find the folder by name. And then when I right click on the folder in the Folder's panel in lightroom that opens this window. And in this window I will just navigate to the new location of the Sienna folder and I'll click Choose. So that fixes that problem, now the Sienna folder has no question mark on it. And when it's selected, the photos in that folder don't have an exclamation mark. When I click on one of these, you can see over here that the notation is now that this is the original photo. And I could work on this photo or this photo in the develop module in lightroom. Now, let's click on the Paris folder.
You'll remember it, that I took one of the photos from this folder. This photo of the fountain in Siena. And I moved in into the Siena folder. And now, Lightroom is confused. It thought that this photo was in the Paris folder, and now it's not there. No problem, I can just re-point Lightroom to the current location of this particular photo, and to do that I'll come up to the exclamation mark on the photo. I'll click that exclamation mark and I get this message telling me the name of the photo and asking if I can locate the photo.
Now we know where the photo is, so we can do that, but if you didn't know where a particular photo was. You can simply copy the name from here and using the search mechanisms in your Operating System. You can search for the photo's new location, and when you knew where it was, click locate and navigate to that location. So I'm going to go here. And then here to my Chapter Two folder. And there is that vertical photo, here in the Sienna folder. I'll select that. I'll leave find nearby missing photos checked, because if I had multiple missing photos.
Relocating just one of them for Lightroom can sometimes re-point Lightroom to the others as well. And I'll click Select. Now Lightroom knows that that vertical photo is not in the Paris folder, so that photo is disappeared from the Paris folder. If I click on the sienna folder, you can see that Light Room now knows where the photo is. And there is no exclamation mark on it. And I could work with this photo. So that's what to do when your photos or folders go missing. Well how do you avoid them going missing in the first place if you do want to rearrange them? If you want to rearrange photos or folders and you're just working with a finite number of photos or folders. Then I suggest that you do that from inside the Folders panel in Lightroom. For example, if I wanted to move this whole folder I would select it in the Folders panel and drag it where I wanted it to go. Inside the 02/10 folder, for example, where it started, and Lightroom tells me that that's fine, I can do that.
But that's going to actually move the folder with it's files out in my Operating System. So, be aware that if you move photos or folder inside of Lightroom that will actually move them out on your hard drives as well. I'll click move and in just a moment the Sienna folder is where it started inside the 02_10 folder. Now, let's say you want to move one or more files. Can you do that? Yes, the same way. You can select files here. And I need to click right on the image thumbnails if I'm going to move them. Not on their frames.
And then I'll click on either one of those thumbnails, and I'll drag. I'll just put these in the Paris folder. That will move them on the hard drive as well, as inside of Lightroom. That's okay with me, I'm going to click, Move. And now, I've moved those two files, this one and this one, into the Paris folder. And I did that from inside Lightroom. So, that's just generally how I'd suggest that you move files and folders from inside Lightroom, however, there's one exception to that rule. Let's say, as I suggested you do at the beginning of the course. All of your Lightroom photos are on a single hard drive and they're inside a parent folder, like the Exercise files folder here or a folder called my Lightroom photos.
And your drive fills up. And so, you go out and purchase a larger hard drive. And you want to move all of your Lightroom photos onto that larger hard drive, but you want Lightroom to know where they've gone. You could do that from inside the Folders panel here but that's a little complicated. You'd have to have at least 1 photo on that new hard drive and you would have to import that one photo into your Lightroom catalog. Then you could take your umbrella folder, your parent folder and drag it until the new hard drive which would appear here in this list. However, I don't suggest you do that, because there's kind of a delay if your moving a lot of files from one hard drive to another.
And when it's all of your photos, you want to be sure you know what's happening. So in that case, I would actually, move the entire parent folder outside of Lightroom. And then just repoint Lightroom to the new location. So, that's a look at missing files and folders in Lightroom. There's one other thing that can cause files or folders to go missing and that is if you rename them outside of Lightroom. And that's what we're going to talk about next.

Mansfield Park
Mansfield Park
Modern Library, Paperback, 9780375757815, 448pp.
Publication Date: October 9, 2001
Through Fanny Price, the heroine of Mansfield Park, Jane Austen views the social mores of her day and contemplates human nature itself. A shy and sweet-tempered girl adopted by wealthy relations, Fanny is an outsider looking in on an unfamiliar, and often inhospitable, world. But Fanny eventually wins the affection of her benefactors, endearing herself to the Bertram family and the reader alike.
In her Introduction, Carol Shields writes, [Mansfield Park's] overriding theme is difficult to isolate, since the novel is about everything it touches upon: nurturing, steadfastness, belonging and not belonging, about fine gradations of moral persuasion, about human noise and silence, and about action and stillness.
"Never did any novelist make more use of an impeccable sense of human values."
--Virginia Woolf

Victor Ortiz Reconnects With His Biological Mother
By Mitch Abramson
Victor Ortiz's hard childhood in Garden City, Kansas, is well documented. His mother abandoned him when he was seven. His father left around six years later. He and a brother grew up in foster care. He used boxing as a vehicle to escape his hard scrabble life and pull himself out of the abyss.
On Wednesday, during a conference call to hype his Sept. 17 bout with Floyd Mayweather Jr. for his WBC welterweight title, Ortiz harkened back to his youth, and admitted that he reconnected with his biological mother "about seven months ago" and that he's forgiven her for walking out on him as a little kid.
"The lady is doing well," Ortiz said. "I think I gave her a year or so of life back into her. She seems like a sweetheart. I don't know her personally, or anything, but from what I saw, I forgave her for everything. She asked me to please forgive her, and to not hold anything against her, and she didn't really have to tell me that. I kind of decided I would do that before meeting her. And you know what? I'm just happy for her."
"I'm happy that she married and is happy and has her own family going on. I've built my own family except my family is pure friends and they're as real as they come. Each of them. I could tell you their names, first and last. I could probably even tell you their social security numbers."

"What can give me more stability when I have weak ankles and a flat foot?" That's the question eighth grade Cranberry Middle School student Jake Hinshaw wanted to answer with his science fair project. Jake wants to pursue a career in the medical field. He combined his foot and ankle instability issue with his desire to learn more about a medically related field for his science project.
To do this he called on Lees-McRae College Athletic Training student Erin Tyler to help with his project. Erin is a junior in the Athletic Training Education Program. She is a double major in Athletic Training and Physical Education.
Erin and Jake had several sessions where Erin would tape Jake's foot and then exercise on the treadmill. The results of the testing were analyzed and presented at the annual science fair.
The experience proved to be a positive experience for both Jake and Erin. For Jake, the most exciting part of doing the project was "learning the many different tapings". Erin enjoyed bringing both of her chosen careers, athletic training and teaching, together to work with Jake.
"This was a great opportunity for Erin! She was able to work one-on-one with Jake and help guide him with his research," said Rita Smith, Director of the Athletic Training Education Program. "We welcome the opportunity to bring more information about our field to the public.
Congratulations to Jake on an innovative idea for his project! Jake is the son of Lees-McRae College Registrar Lynn Hinshaw.

Maryland's unemployment rate remained steady in July as the state gained nearly 3,000 jobs, driven by strong growth in professional and business services, the U.S. Labor Department said.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported the state's jobless rate Friday at 4.3 percent, the same as in June and lower than the national rate of 4.9 percent.
July was the seventh month this year in which Maryland posted month-over-month job gains — though the Labor Department revised a June preliminary estimate from a gain of 9,800 jobs to 6,900.
Maryland's jobless rate has fallen significantly from July 2015, when it was 5.1 percent, to hold steady at a "pretty low" rate,...

Happy anniversary to the American Dream
This year the American Dream turns eighty years old.
It's actually hard to imagine that the words "American Deam" have a birthdate, a creator, an inventor. But they do. Over the years, these words have become very elastic -- meaning whatever the speaker wants them to: a new home, a new car, a new life, a chicken in every pot.
But "American Dream" first was coined in 1931, by historian James Truslow Adams, in his book, "Epic of America." He was writing as the Great Depression gathered full steam, here at home and around the developed world. This is how he put it, in excerpts you can find at Wikipedia, as honestly, directly, and succintly as only an inventor can:

At the time when Frodo comes across Gollum (Gollum as in Smeagól the Halfling), unless I'm mistaken, he's about 400 years old. That means that at the time when Bilbo encounters him he must have been roughly 50 years younger. Should he look different? If you think back to the opening scenes in Return of the King, you'll remember the hideous transformation Smeagól undergoes which then earns him the title Gollum, I wonder if Jackson and the team will choose an image for him from these earlier stages for accuracy or keep the image he appears to have in the LotR films. Will he look any different in his youthful 350's and should he look any different? What do you guys think?
I haven't searched the previous posts on other threads, so I'm sorry if this has been discussed or brought up before.

Self-reliance and sustainability in the 21st century.
By Jeff Chaney
SEE Expo, events, renewable energy, conservation, Jeff Chaney
We are in mourning. A good friend has fallen by the wayside. The SEE EXPO, held annually in Fletcher, N.C. at the Western North Carolina Agricultural Center for 10 years, is no more. We miss this event already. The feeling of loss is overwhelming.
We last visited the EXPO in 2009. The drive over was scenic and very relaxing. The rented weekend cabin was inexpensive and glorious. The entire experience was most enjoyable. A true family activity, if ever there was one!
The monstrous parking lot was full all weekend. We were surprised at the level of attendance. Two large buildings housed booths by participating businesses, which ran the gamut of renewable energy and conservation. An emphasis was placed on education, with workshops held the entire weekend, presented by professionals in their fields. Most of the workshops were standing-room-only, and covered everything from Ampmobile electric vehicle conversions to geothermal heating & cooling systems, and anything in between. We learned volumes from the classes, and the feeling of community was unmatched.
Apparently, this fellowship was partially responsible for the downfall. One of the reasons given for the closure was that the event failed to attract new visitors. The "green community" was well represented, but not enough "converts" were coming. It sure didn't look that way to me!
I am certainly no expert, but it seems to me that a little more "hands on" might do the trick. For example, several conversion electric vehicles were present. The owners of these could take a cue from David Hrivnak, a member of the Knoxville Electric Vehicle Association. David, at a recent meeting, made available a Tesla Roadster for members to enjoy test rides or drives.
I think strategies such as this would pique the interest of the general public. If everyone could experience this technology first-hand, I think there would be no going back!
Whatever the solution may be, it is up to us to find and implement it. We must somehow spread the word. If a similar event is held in your area, support it to the fullest. If not, work to get one started, as I am.
We need these events to "spread the gospel." There should be more, not less, of them in every city. After all, we are trying to save the world, right? For such a monumental task, we need all the help we can get! Thank you, in advance, for your support. Please remember to recycle any and everything, when possible!

NY man released after DNA tests, due in Vt. courtMay 15,2013
The Associated Press
MONTPELIER — A suburban New York man released from a life-without-parole sentence after new DNA tests cast doubt on his conviction for killing his wife in a Vermont condominium almost two decades ago is due to be arraigned again in the killing.
John Grega is scheduled to appear in court Thursday in Brattleboro on a charge of aggravated murder for the August 1994 death of his wife Christine Grega, who was killed in a Dover condominium where the couple and their young son were vacationing.
She had been beaten, sexually assaulted and strangled.
John Grega's 1995 conviction was vacated last summer after new tests found DNA of an unknown male in samples taken after Christine Grega's death.

I find it bothersome that someone would be jealous of someone else's success, but not desire their hard worek or dedication....it is like hating a guy because he won thelottery....shut up and buy a ticket....
I'm sure he wasn't serious.
me too. that is exactly what i was going to say before I read your post.
I just noticed that I forgot to click "post"....5 months ago. - "me" was my post 5, and a bit, months ago. Self-explanatory irony.Yes, I know.
Bobby Fischer was a jerk, no doubt. He was a nut, and his paronia and insanity just got worse and worse. His racism is what was unforgivable to me.
But I always like him because as a teenager, Fischer is the one who got me interested in chess. He wrote a wonderful column about chess for Boy's Life magazine in the early 1960's. I read everyone of them. His battle with Spassky for the World Championship at the height of the cold war captured the country's imagination. Bobby made chess cool.
Then he made himself a fool. How sad. But I could never say I dislike him most. To me he had a sad mental disease.
So he had an unforgivable mental disease...I see.
lol...sounds like he and Hitler might have been buds...
Aye, and they both whistled "Erika" while playing chess...
I never realized Hitler played chess ?
I never realized he whistled.
Now I'm not sure if he could do two things at the same time.
I wonder if as in chess and in life, he thought the minority attack was a good idea ?
He could laugh though: "These two Jews walk into a bar..."
...they should have paid more attention to where they were walking...?
Hmm, does Deep Blue count?
this made my day..
it does seem like that mustache would possibly mess him up...

Gubernatorial candidate Steve Poizner attacked fellow GOP hopeful Meg Whitman on Thursday during one of the first gubernatorial debates of the campaign.
But Whitman couldn't attack back: She wasn't at the debate.
Which was the reason Poizner attacked her.
The setting was KGO Radio talk show host Ronn Owen's morning show, which had trouble getting all three Republican candidates to its San Francisco studio at the same time. So Owens settled for a GOP Gang of Two (Poizner and candidate Tom Campbell).
"She's afraid of you, Ronn," Poizner, the state's insurance commissioner, told Owens. "She doesn't want to talk to the press."
In recent weeks, Poizner has increasingly tried to portray Whitman, the former CEO of eBay, as a political neophyte who is dodging debates because she's not ready to face tough questions. The Poizner campaign has even established a Web site: MegaDuck2010.com, which dubs Whitman "the candidate who won't debate."
The Whitman campaign calls the barbs nonsense.
"I can assure you there will be plenty of debates between now and Election Day," said Sarah Pompei, Whitman's spokeswoman. "There was less than a week's notice, and we couldn't rearrange her schedule so she could attend this debate."
The gubernatorial debates have begun early; indeed, the primary isn't until June.
But interest in next year's election to replace Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is unusually high, leading media outlets and other organizations to arrange debates earlier than in the past.
The first gubernatorial debate of sorts took place way back in April before the California Republican Party's Executive Committee, which was deciding how to weigh in on last spring's ballot initiatives. The next one occurred in May at the Sacramento Press Club. In both those cases, Whitman was also a no-show.
Pompei said Whitman has put her energy into talking to average folks and "grass-roots activists and leaders in communities across California.''
The three GOP hopefuls are expected to appear on the same stage in Santa Clara on Saturday, Sept. 19, at a forum sponsored by the local chapter of the API American Public Affairs Association. But they aren't expected to debate that day.
Without Whitman, Wednesday's debate — which featured questions from Owens and listeners — yielded few fireworks. Mostly, the candidates complimented each other and agreed to agree. You'd never know this was a primary in which more than $100 million will probably be spent just to win the Republican nomination.
At one point, Owens even interjected: "We're having a far too civil debate.''
Probably the most serious disagreement was over the gay-marriage issue.
Campbell, a former Silicon Valley congressman and state budget director, was unequivocal. "I believe that people should be allowed to be married whether they're gay or straight,'' he said.
"I'm clearly someone who doesn't agree with the social conservatives either,'' said Poizner, who made millions as a Silicon Valley entrepreneur. "But the fact is I do oppose gay marriage. I do think that traditional marriage between a man and a woman is the right way to go.''
He said Californians spoke clearly when they voted against gay marriage twice at the ballot box.
On another contentious "social issue'' — abortion — the replies were more nuanced, with Poizner nudging toward the right.
"It's a very difficult decision,'' Campbell said. But "government should decide that it is the woman who makes that call.''
Poizner said: "I am pro-choice, but I don't believe abortion should be just another operation. We should work together to drive the number of abortions down to zero.''
He said he is in favor of outlawing late-term abortions and requiring parental notification of minors seeking abortions.
Much of Thursday's debate focused on the state's dismal fiscal condition, the dysfunctional nature of the Legislature and the ways each candidate would try to put the state on a more solid footing.
Both Poizner and Campbell portrayed themselves as fiscal tightwads who would bring down spending and hold the line on taxes.
But Poizner said he would actually cut taxes across-the-board to generate economic growth, and he took a gentle swipe at Campbell for proposing a one-year 32-cent increase in the gas tax to make education cuts less draconian.
Campbell had no apologies.
"I said no to firing any more teachers,'' he said.

The debate, which was held during the 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. time slot on Thursday, can be heard at www.kgoradio.com in the archives section.

The city of Tecumseh continues to make progress on two ongoing infrastructure projects — one that will secure another water source for residents of the city and another to provide a wider, new roadway for drivers between Tecumseh and Shawnee.
City Manager Jimmy Stokes said Wednesday that all easements for the Gordon Cooper widening project have been secured, paving the way for the next phase.
Stokes said the next phase will involve moving utilities in the area.
Actual construction to widen the roadway isn't expected to begin for a few more months, Stokes said.
The plan is widen to four lanes a mile-long stretch of Gordon Cooper Drive between Bob Crouch Drive and Benson Park Road.
Concerning the Wes Watkins project, which involves the city constructing water lines from the reservoir in McLoud to Tecumseh's water treatment plant.
The city, because of the drought and low water levels at Tecumseh Lake, has been purchasing Shawnee's water through the Pottawatomie County Development Authority to provide water to Tecumseh residents.
With an investment years ago to secure a share of water rights in Wes Watkins, the city is preparing to tap into that supply for the city's water use, but need to install water lines first.
The nine-mile raw water line project will begin at the reservoir in McLoud and bring water to the city's treatment plant. The city has secured a $3.8 million loan for the water lines and for further improvements at the water treatment plant.
Last month, Stokes said easements had been obtained from all but two of 19 property owners affected by the water line route.
For the remaining two, Stokes said the city has filed condemnation procedures as they request eminent domain in order to install that line, with one of those property owners asking for an extension to review eminent domain policies.
The court has appointed county commissioners to appraise a fair price for use of the land, Stokes said.
Stokes still anticipates permits could be issued for the project to begin in May or June. It's estimated it could take as much as six months for the water line project to be completed.
Watch for updates.

I am almost 14 weeks pregnant with identical triplets, which have been told is very rare. This past Monday I ended up in the ER because I was bleeding, they did sono and pelvic exam and babies looked good and cervix was closed. I followed up with my MFM the next day and they discovered I had a bleed, I have not had any further red bleeding since Monday when I went to the ER, but I am still having brown when I wipe. Any advice and experience with this is requested. Thank You

Wow identical triplets! I have been wiping brown blood for nearly 5 weeks. However, so long as it is brown I am thankful. Some advice I have seen and used from this group is being prepared with questions for your appointments.
What are the exact dimensions? Is it small, moderate, or large?
Where is it located?
What are my restrictions?
Best of luck.
Posted 03/31/2013
I had a bleed at 8 weeks and again at 18. I was told very common with triplets - I'm now 30 weeks with the trips. Congrats and try not to worry x

Corporate Advocacy Program™
For example, a member of kongregate.com would like to purchase virtual credits to be used while playing games on their site. For 10 credits, you must complete a survey on MyView.com. You are transferred to their website and they begin by asking you general information such as:
Your age
Location (Zip code, State)
Your household size
Children's ages (if applicable)
and more...
In order to see if you "qualify" for a survey, they give you a survey!
For example, the last attempt I made to complete a survey, they asked me the following:
* Have you tried any of these products in the last 30 days? Followed by a long list of product names such as quaker oats, oat squares, other breakfast products...
* Have you eaten at any of the following restaurants in the last 30 days? Followed by a list of major fast food restaurants, as well as another section asking for in the last 7 days, and if this is your favorite restaurant.
There were over 10 minutes worth of questions such as these, none of them related to other questions. By this, I mean, they were not all related to fast food, for example. If they had been, I may have considered that they were trying to qualify me for a fast food survey, but these were all over the board.
In the end, of course, I did not qualify for a survey, and therefor they were not obligated to pay for my time, meaning I did not get my kongregate.com kreds.
If this had been a one time issue, perhaps I would let it go as just that, but it is not. This happens almost every time I have tried to qualify with very few exceptions. Even if it were just limited to me, perhaps I could see some kind of explanation, but hundreds of people, just in one game, complain that they also do not ever qualify and have not gotten their "kreds".
Here is why I believe this is such a serious issue.
Information is valuable. The qualifying survey IS A survey. You are giving them everything but your first and last name, which they do not need anyhow. They now have information that Mr. X from City/State prefers Taco Bell over McDonalds, while his 13 year old daughter prefers to eat quaker oats versus the other brand. This is information this company can, and almost certainly DOES sell to companies. They are making money by giving you a survey and then disqualifying you towards ANOTHER survey, thereby not paying you.
This is a blatant ripoff and needs to be addressed! Please, if you, or anyone you know has been through the same situation with this company (one of many who do this), reply and add your name to the complaint. Something needs to be done.

Hi there
I am using the NextGen Gallery plug-in with the Hatch theme as I am setting up an image gallery site. Everything checks out as mutually compatible but I just cannot see how to marry up the galleries I have created and populated with images, to my main menu. I browsed the database to find out what path had been set up for one of them (it was wp-content/gallery/nature for my Nature sub-gallery) but when I entered this path as a menu item, it merely produced an 'Index of...' (a totally unstyled, plain HTML list of image filenames). I should point out that I am a WordPress newbie, but I do know how to set up menu items for ordinary pages and posts.
Thanks for your help!

New silk fabric, woolen fabric, cotton fabric, buttons, lace trims, and more...each month brings new temptations!
The latest updates and gatherings involving the Britex Community. Stay up to date and make sure to mark your calendars.
Information and tutorials for folks interested in antique Italian lacework, nouveau fashion, sewing techniques and much much more!
If you haven't met Sonya Philip of 100 Acts of Sewing, here's your chance. She'll be teaching our very first Pop-up Britex on March 14 where she'll demonstrate all the skills necessary for making an a-line tunic dress. Here's a peek into her creative process using two pieces of linen from the our online selection.
Why did you choose these fabrics for your project?
I adore linen. It is wonderful to work with and has a beautiful hand. Living in San Francisco, I find I can wear linen almost year-round. I chose the main fabric (Golden Wheat Linen/Silk Blend) primarily for the color–mustard and curry yellows just really speak to me right now. I wanted a strong contrast color and was taken by the richness of the Two-tone Raspberry Linen. Click here to read more »
Heather Habig is an expert in her field, which is why we invited her to participate in December's BF Contributor. She lives in San Francisco, is launching a clothing line in 2013 and offers custom design services. The black & white wool double knit was a perfect choice for her pattern. After seeing her classic-but-bold, perfectly fitted jacket, we had a few questions for Heather. Here's what she had to tell us:
1. Why did you choose the black and white double knit for your project? What did you love about the fabric? What did you learn about the fabric?
I'm always drawn to fabric and prints that are high-contrast, especially in black and white, and when I saw this fabric I was really excited. The fact that it's wool and a double knit sounded like fun to work with, and I knew I could get a great-fitting garment out of it.
When I made the pattern for the jacket, and I kept the silhouette relatively simple because of the bold pattern. As I was working with it, I was surprised by how much it was shrinking under the steam iron. I might recommend to someone else using this fabric to buy an extra 1/4 to 1/3 yard – to account for shrink as well as matching the stripes. Click here to read more »
We're so fortunate to have such talented and sweet-natured tailors in San Francisco! Carlos is from Scissors & Cloth; they build couture collared dress shirts, each hand-draped, hand-cut and handcrafted through various classic and modern shirt-making techniques. My goal is to provide exceptional customer service through one on one appointments in my downtown, underground shirt-making workshop. Each client is personally hand-draped with muslin to find that perfect fit. Once the fabric is smoothed over all shapes of the upper torso, all seams are then drawn in using chalk, including the yoke, neckhole, armhole, side seams and hem. This gives me an accurate pattern to work from. The muslin is then transferred over to paper and the patternmaking process begins. I build as many samples that I need to until the client is happy with the fit. Once the fit is deemed perfect, I go to work on the final piece. Patterns are then filed away for future use.
Britex Fabrics and Scissors & Cloth collaborated over a length of classic black and white houndstooth wool fabric to come up with this warm and spiffy shirt. Contributing designer Carlos says, "I chose to work with a wool hounds-tooth because of its sheer classic beauty. However, any fabrics with patterns can be more time consuming to work with. As far as working with patterns goes, I typically cut each piece one at time, even if there are multiples of the same pattern. Take the yoke for instance, I start by placing my yoke pattern on one piece of fabric, trace around it, then cut out the piece. I then take that cut piece and lay that down on more fabric while matching up all the patterns on the fabric to the first yoke. If done precisely, the first yoke blends into the fabric pattern so beautifully that you cannot tell that there are two pieces. This can be very time consuming but your guaranteed identical pattern pieces, which makes the end product that much nicer. Another issue I came across were raw edges that were fraying. To better deal with this, any time I cut a pattern piece, I always ran a 1/4 stitch line around my fabric pattern pieces so that the fraying would not run over my 3/8″ seam allowance. "

Anyone seen the big jump all of a sudden there has been a few big blocks sold at 1.10 to 1.11 just out of the blue anyone head anything? Just wondering I was thinking of adding some more and this is making me more intrigued, Any thoughts!
Sentiment: Buy
Look at chart Jan-May & JOEZ pops the beginning into mid -month. Probably hits $1.26-$1.32, but $1.50 is possible. Insiders/employees maybe selling their salaried free shares/options. Jump Fri/Mon probably.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
PUT being the operative word.
Correction: "Anyone Heard Anything"
No news, looking at the increase in volume someone must have made their bets on the company's stock price going up.

Skip to comments.Bye Bye GOP-E been NOT NICE "knowing" you.
Posted on 04/25/2012 8:06:02 AM PDT by US Navy Vet
I am "Divorcing" the GOP-E and "Republican Party" effective TODAY!
Tomorrow, I will be going to my hometown town hall and making the change to indy. Done with the GOP-e.
Sounds like an honorable plan. Agreed then.
"He only got to where he is because of Daddy's money."
I thought his father's estate was given entirely to charity, and Romney made his money himself. Even if he did inherit money...so what? Are you saying we should have a death/estate tax of 100%?
I live in MA where you can be a Democrat, a Republican,
or an "Unenrolled". The last one means you can choose
either ballot in a primary. In the past after getting a ballot
of one party or the other, you would have to go to a table
and sign something to change back. Not any more, no need.
In 2004 I was able to vote against John Kerry TWICE (first
time, John Edwards...ha). The unenrolleds in MA outnumber
the Republicans. They may even outnumber Democrats.
(Checking) Hmm. yes. As of 2010:
>>Secretary of State William Galvin announced Wednesday that 4.15 million people were registered to vote in next weeks party primaries.
Of that, 1.5 million are Democrats, or 37 percent of the total. Another 471,000 are Republicans, equalling 11.4 percent of the total. And 2.1 million or 51.4 percent are unenrolled in any party.
Let me repeat that:
And people vote with their wallets and pocketbooks.
"So when he wins; you have forfeited your right to bitch about it."
Just who the hell do you think you are???
Because we don't vote for YOUR socialist, WE don't get to say anything about what happens?
Go suck eggs, you Rino bootlicker.
You know RitaOK, you're correct! All though HE works in mysterious ways, I also do believe that G_D has turned us over to our reprobate minds and we are no longer his client nation.
Just reading what a lot of these posters are saying and you'd get the impression you were talking to the GOP-E, Senate and House leadership............. the Republican politicians that have made an art form out of rolling over rather than fighting thereby causing us to be in the positon this country now finds itself. With all the information out there on Romney the people, including some of our posters, choose to remain willfully ignorant of what will happen in the long run should Romney (in the unlikely event) get the presidency. Kiss the conservative movement goodbye because he'll be the head of the Republican party and all appointments thereto! Concentrating on getting Conservatives in the House and Senate is a far better move than chancing a Romney presidency.
As has been said, in the choice the lesser of two evils you still have evil no matter how much lipstick you put on that sucker! Let'r rip!
Lisa Murkowski wasn't enough of a clue?
I would so vote for Zombie Reagan, but until then ABO.
Obama is probably laughing his skinny arse off daily..to know how much power we all have given him.
His name is mentionned a thousand times a minute by talk show hosts, the media and us here at FR...not to mention thousands of other pundits, authors, etc.
And any and all discussions are always couched in fear.
For him, Val, Moochie and Axelrod, the constant anxiety ridden rants must provide feelings of ecstacy to feed their narcissistic cravings. And they are most likely in awe of how their vapid, empty, evil machinations have taken hold of the electorate.
In reality, Hussein only has as much power as we allow him to have. He is like the Wizard of Oz, a small man hiding behind a curtain.
There are ways to stop him, to restrict his intent to destroy our country, should he get reelected.
The conservative Supremes will simply have to hunker down and close ranks in the event of such a disaster. They'll know they have to stay healthy and cannot leave, unless by illness or death, of course. 2016 is not that far off.
Let's look at what we can do: We can help elect conservatives to Congress and the Senate, hopefully replacing many of the GOP Rinos who are there now.
The GOP-E will be ineffective and devastated after a Romney loss..and this will leave room for a Conservative uprising from WE THE PEOPLE..the likes of which we have never seen, if we take up the torch.
No one president,entity, organization or bureaucracy should have the capacity to overcome us and allow us to live in a state of constant terror and anxiety.
We cannot allow ourselves to be dictated to by an empty administration, an inept party or stupid entitlement drones who vote the wrong way.
We can do this. After defeat comes victory and the sun will shine again.
There are times in peril, when all men are put into a situation of making a choice between two unthinkable situations. Civil war;shooting your brother or be shot by your brother. The man in the mountains trapped; the only way to escape is to cut off a limb, or wait for death.
Only the defeated man will do nothing or commit suicide.
The undefeated executes the risk and reward formula then makes his choice.
Those are the survivors.
Those are the ones that Darwin rewards with preservation of their gene pool.
Those are the ones that are superior to them that would do nothing or commit suicide.
Premier Romneykov and Chairman Obamakov are the choices you have been given.
Now, will you be Rewarded by Darwin, or Awarded by Darwin?
"Just never, ever whine about how Obama ruined your job, retirement, medical insurance, "
Well, don't you ever whine about how Romney ruined yours, then.
A vote for Mr. Goode is a vote for Obama. Sorry, but true.
This is pratical poltics we're talking about, not a CCD class.
I feel your pain. The Republican Party is responsible for my change of heart. No long will I pull the straight ticket lever.......I'll vote issues and vote for those who have my best interest at heart......those who will not take me for granted like the Pubs have in the past.
If He would turn away from His chosen nation Israel, banishing them at least twice, why not America as a nation? Rhetorical.
But He has promised never to forsake His children utterly. And His children are everywhere, even in America. We have His unbreakable promises and our marching orders.
same here..I am voting AGAINST Obama, not FOR Romney. But I am pulling the lever for Romney, for that reason alone.
That is your privilege and right. And no Conservative on Free Republic will try to make you feel guilty for doing so.
Disagree. Not necessarily true.
And I you, if Obama wins again, if our side doesn't even turn out to vote, or votes 3rd party.
Once again, you are attempting to tell me how to vote. You have control over one vote, Hodar: your own.
And it's you who is having the temper tantrum for not having your way with us.
A vote for the lesser of two evils is still a vote for evil. I WILL NOT VOTE FOR EVIL.
Even if every Freeper voted for Mitt, Obama still wipes the floor with him.
I'm not voting for either democrat. PERIOD
I think it boils down to this for me and some other Conservatives on FR:
We are not convinced that things will be better under a Romney Presidency. Matter of fact, we are now convinced that things will NOT be better. We believe both main parties are working in unison to alter forever the America that we Conservatives have loved. We resist.
I'll vote against O whatever happens.
But if Romney is the best the Repubs have to offer, I'm no longer a Repub. I also will re-register as a Conservative. Period.
Not much better,admittedly but Osama Obama will literally FINISH OFF this country in the next four years whereas Romney isn't likely to do so.
If you dont help get Obama out of office. You have zero right to bitch and complain for the next four years no matter how bad he makes it and what ludicrous stuff he pushes on us by executive order. Thats the facts.
If you believe voting for a party that most Americans have never heard of - and expect its candidate to win, well, that's a political pipedream.
A Romney victory means that the socialists' takeover of both parties is now complete.
And Osama Obama only got where *he* is thanks to Soros's money.
Disagree with your premise. I forsake no rights in voting my conscience.
And Bill Ayers.
No need to apologize. We just disagree; that's all.
Communist Goal Number 15! Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
P.S. I am stealing that for taglines in the future, if that ok.
If he's like me, he already did that last time and look what we got. Romney himself will kill off his own voter turnout.
We are going to have another McCain event if something does not happen at the convention.
Seems that way to me enough to take a stand to resist and not to suffer any more coerced voting for every Republican Presidential candidate the GOP offers.
See yah!
We don't have an "Independent" option in Texas. At a primary election, one either votes in the Democrat primary or the Republican primary and that makes one either a Democrat or a Republican on the record. The person's voter card is stamped Democrat or Republican when the person votes in the primary. One can think "I'm an Independent", but the record and voter card shows either Democrat or Republican.
More like "Liberal" vs "Liberal Lite".
As my tagline says, The Republican Party is bigger than the presidency.
I'm not leaving the Republican Party. I go back and forth on what I'll be doing in November, but the party is bigger than Mitt Romney and bigger than the presidency. I'm not going to punish the Tim Walbergs because I don't like Mitt.
One has to seriously ask this, given his picks for the MA courts.
Thank you, Resettozero.
The goal is not to elect a Constitution Party candidate. The goal is making a recorded vote for none of the main party candidates. It's an option to not voting at all for President.
Maybe not his money since he made his money, but his influence and networks sure helped. Cranbrook isn't cheap.
Yeah, just don't think about it, just vote for turd sandwich. I mean, come on, you can't vote for giant douche. He's a giant douche!
That will only help re-elect Mr. Obama. Lousy goal.
Bye Bye McCain/Rino BOOTLICKER!
