AR2 Home Theme Options not saving, Taxonomy Problem?
December 2012
Hi. first, that you for the great theme...its incredible! I will be donating.
I am currently having a problem with the Home Page Theme Options.
I had the "Slide Show" and "Featured Posts #1" assigned to specific tags. Now, the tags do not save. When I entering the tags, the system does not search my terms/taxonomy (like it used to).
I recently upgrading to WP 3.5 and Project-AR2-master version. I've deactivated all plugins and have no caching installed.
Any ideas why my Home Page Theme Options are not saving?
Thanks for the help!
December 2012
I have similar problem. Drop down menu does not work under Home tab. I am not able to change my selections for Slideshow and featured posts.
December 2012
I solved the issue...
I add this line to wp-config.php to fix the WP 3.5 Visual Editor/Add Media button:
define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false );
When I delete this line, the terms in the Options section work normally.
Now, how do I fix the Add Media button!? :)
January 2013
I have the same problems. Drop Down istn't working under Home tab. I din't find the line
define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false );
February 2013
I am having the same issue. I cant save categories to show in my different section.
Is there a fix to this yet as is quite fundamental part of the site
Tried the above in WP-Config but doesn't seem to have worked.....
February 2013
Just to up date this, I have another version of the same Arras install on an older version of WordPress where the token input works for the Terms input.
Using fire bug, the 'non working' code shows
Please choose your taxonomy before proceeding.
where as the working code displays as
Please choose your taxonomy before proceeding.
To note it shows an extra as I have a category in there 'Headlines'.
March 2013
I had this same problem and I just wanted to share with everyone the workaround that I found so anyone can use it if they need.
First of all, the issue itself. Like everyone else, I can't save any categories or tags to the individual sections, which of course, is a major feature of the theme functionality. When inspecting the page with Chrome developer tools, it catches two errors going on with the javascript files "theme-options.js" and "jquery.tokeninput.min.js":
Uncaught ReferenceError: ar2Admin_l10n is not defined
Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'tokenInput'
So, if anyone wants to solve this bug properly without a workaround, that's all the info I can provide. But, in the meantime, this is my workaround:
After you've saved the theme options how you want them to be, go to the theme tools and you will see the option for importing and exporting your options. We are going to copy/paste our currently provided export code into the import box, manually insert our category terms, and then press save .That will import our old options with the additions of the categories we selected.
There is a line in the export code that refers to the four different sections of your home page. It's called "sections" and it lists off the options for these four sections: "slideshow", "featured-posts-1", "featured-posts-2", "news-posts". In each section it has this option:
We want to add in our categories to those square brackets. But, don't just stick in the name of your category. It's looking for the id number of your category. To find this you will have to go into your mysql database and lookup the table called "wp_terms". (The preface may not be wp_, it goes according to the preface you specified in your database install. "wp_" is the default preface.) In wp_terms you will find all the categories and tags, each with its own ID number. Jot down the ID numbers of the categories you wish to use.
Go back to the theme options export code and manually insert the ID numbers for the terms option of each section. For example, if you wanted to use only category 20 you would write this:
If you wanted to use more than one category, like 20 and 26, you would go like this:
Once you do that, just paste the new options code into the import text box and save. The new terms will NOT show up in the options page itself, but if you check your site you will see that they are indeed working.

Noon Solar's stylish solar bags for both sexes
Solar bags are a great way to keep your gadgets charged without using any extra energy. However, they are rarely very stylish. Noon Solar has created this line of attractive eco-friendly bags.

Any chick gamer can tell you that we occasionally take a lot of crap from fellow gamers. This faceplate for the Xbox 360 is in direct response to that issue. It is the face plate for ever girl who's ever been asked 'Are you on your boyfriend's Xbox?'.
If you miss all those retro Atari games, sometimes its nice to have a little something to remind you of the 'good old days'. I'm sure I've said before, but Etsy is a great resource for original geek gear. This charm and earring set are a great example of that.
I am generally against the more conservative laptop bags, however, I actually like this one. Part of the perk is that it's one of the few laptop bags I've seen that doesn't really look like a laptop bag. It could easily be used as an oversized purse or a bookbag. I've seen girls use smaller totes for school books, so this bag wouldn't be hard to use it for that at all.
Flash drives have been doused in Swarvoski crystals, hidden in chapstick tubes and turned into a humping dog, yet I have seen few that seem as soft and cozy as these two. Generally I'm not that into cool flash drives, but with these are so completely different than the others I have seen that I would love to own them both.
Those that have a relative to shop for this Christmas that can't let go of technology that was abandoned long ago might want to keep this Walkman Necklace in mind. Not only does it have that sentimental value, it is one of the better designs I've seen. Although it is slightly cheesy, it features great craftsmanship.
I generally don't go too far out of my way to get green products to go with my electronics. However, if I happen to find one I'm more than happy to snag it. This Organic Cotton laptop sleeve is cute and will help you at least seem like you're going all out on the green accessories.
If you're looking for a laptop bag that is functional and cute snag this one complete with a dancing robot. Listed as the "Ultimate Messenger Bag" it definitely beats out those boring business-like laptop bags.
I don't really have any problems with fighting over the remote to the TV. The fact that I watch very little TV is a major contributing factor to that. However, some people find themselves waging a war every evening over domination of the remote. Here's a little trick to make sure that you always win.
Every time I get online it seems I've found a different laptop bag or sleeve that I want to snag for my own. These cute little vinyl laptop sleeves from Barry's Farm are now a few more to tack onto the list. It comes in three different quirky designs to keep your laptop from looking anything but boring.
These days most of us own several gadgets we carry around on a regular basis. Occasionally you get to a point where you are carrying around so many toys it's difficult to find something to house them all without ending up looking like the bag lady. This set is one of the few that offers an affordable and fashionable solution.
For those that can't stand gray and tan, these mouse and pad sets are just the thing to add a twist to your desktop. They are flowery enough to almost make you want to throw up a little, however, but if you can manage to keep hold of your lunch they are kind of cute.

AbstractUrbanization has become a key part of social and economic progress in the 21st Century, but achieving healthy and safe urban development has a long way to go for many developed and developing countries. Urbanization has been recognized as a complex ecosystem which is affected by economic, social, and ecological factors. With this in mind, this paper looks at many factors to first evaluate based on the matter-element (ME) method and then model an Economy-Society-Ecology (ESE) subsystem using a hybrid method by a fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (FAHP), and then by using the entropy method (EM) to determine the relevant index weights. To avoid subjectivity when defining the model's boundaries, the technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) is introduced. Then, a coupling coordination degree model focusing on the degree of coordination in the ESE subsystem is established. Panel data collected from 2003 to 2012 for Chengdu, China, is then simulated to analyze the development process. The results show that: (1) The quality of urbanization continues to improve and the phasic features are presented; (2) The sensitivity analysis of subsystem weight shown that it had less effect on the coupling coordinated system; (3) The coordination in the ESE subsystem has also improved. However, the development rate of the economic subsystem is greater than that of the societal and ecological subsystem. The approach used here therefore, is shown to provide a promising basis for policy-making to support healthy urban development.

The Los Angeles Lakers have awoken from their slumber.
Sure, it took general manager Mitch Kupchak and Co. missing out on all of the big names to rise and participate, but as they say in a cliche manner, better late than never.
Both Nick Young and Jordan Hill are back in the fold, and Jeremy Lin is on the roster after a trade. Even better, he brings with him a first-round pick. To top it all off, ESPN.com's Marc Stein reports the front office then won the bidding war for forward Carlos Boozer.
So the roster is taking shape, and there are some intriguing pieces in place for the future such as Young and Julius Randle. However, the brass are on a roll and clearly far from done.
Here's the latest.
Wesley Johnson the Odd Man Out
Somebody had to be that guy.
There was at least one person on the roster from a season ago who would somehow not fit into the Lakers' plans despite the team having a plethora of cap room in the infancy of a rebuild.
That someone is Wesley Johnson, per Mark Medina of the Los Angeles Daily News:
Ryan Kelly will likely reach deal soon w/ Lakers. Lakers like Xavier Henry, but no deal is imminent. Lakers unlikely to keep Wesley Johnson— Mark Medina (@MarkG_Medina) July 16, 2014
It has been a wild, tumultuous ride for Johnson after being the No. 4 overall pick in the 2010 draft, with stops in Minnesota, Phoenix and Los Angeles while averaging 8.1 points and 3.3 rebounds per game.
The front office is clearly being careful with its cash regarding multiyear deals, with their hearts set on the 2015 free-agency period, when players such as Kevin Love, Rajon Rondo, LaMarcus Aldridge and more become unrestricted free agents.
With that in mind, rotational pieces like Ryan Kelly and Xavier Henry are being given more emphasis at this point over projects like Johnson, and that is nothing but a good thing.
Mitch Kupchak in No Hurry
Let's allow The Rock to take it away for a moment, courtesy of SportsNation:
.@TheRock on the Lakers still not having a head coach: "It Does Matter." #TheRockonSN pic.twitter.com/u8kVAVy5kf— SportsNation (@SportsNation) July 15, 2014
Believe it or not, the man is 100 percent correct. The longer the Lakers drag their feet in regard to one of the most important positions in any franchise, the worse things could be next season—that's not to suggest they care about next season, though.
According to NBA on ESPN, the front office is not exactly sprinting to the finish line where hiring a coach is concerned:
Sources: Lakers aim to hire coach within next week or two (via @mcten) -- http://t.co/IuzoancimK— NBA on ESPN (@ESPNNBA) July 15, 2014
In an ESPNLosAngeles.com article by Dave McMenamin, Kupchak made light of the situation:
Maybe we can wait until September. Obviously that's one of the next things that we're going to address, and with putting the roster together and getting through the draft and getting through this last period, a week or two, the next thing we're going to work on is the coach, and I think we're going to have somebody in the next couple weeks.
However, it's no joking matter.
There is a thought process out there that suggests the coach should come first, and then the subsequent pieces can fit to his liking. The Lakers have done the opposite, and impressionable young stars like Julius Randle are going at it in the summer league without a head coach.
It's interesting that Byron Scott has long been hailed as the favorite, although sources told McMenamin that he would still need a second interview to secure the position—even though he already has the blessing of Kobe Bryant.
It's a strange time in Los Angeles, and it appears it will be extended for at least a few more weeks.
Metta World Peace Up for a Reunion Tour
Not only is Metta World Peace on the hunt to extend his playing career, as can be seen in the tweet below, he apparently wants to re-up with the Lakers after starting just one game in New York last season.
@BR_NBA no way in the world I am retiring. I'm too good. Last year I had a consistent pre-season. I can't control what a coach does!— mettaworldpeace.com (@MettaWorldPeace) June 13, 2014
It's funny to shrug it off as a "fat chance" that the Lakers would want to bring back World Peace during somewhat of a youth movement, but Medina hints that the team has at least been in contact with him:
I'm told Metta would love to play for Lakers, Clippers or Knicks. But my sense is any talks Lakers may have had w/ him have not been deep— Mark Medina (@MarkG_Medina) July 17, 2014
A journeyman at this stage of his career, he has not exactly posted eye-popping contributions in the past few years, four of which came as a member of the Lakers:
World Peace has a lot to prove on the court before a team takes a major risk in bringing him on at the age of 34.
With that said, there is value to be had for any franchise in the form of veterans, and the Lakers are no exception.
Again, if the Lakers are hesitant to dish out longer deals, then perhaps a reunion with World Peace is not the right idea. He could come off the bench next year in a rotation, but it's clear he thinks highly of the miles left on his tires, so it all has to come together at the negotiation table.
Until it does, don't get those purple and gold World Peace jerseys out of the bottom of the closet.

K-9 Immunity Plus for Babe who has osteoscarcoma.
Posted by 5517901104883750392 on Jun 29, 2013
Within days of our precious princess Babe being diagnosed with bone cancer, we went online looking for anything that might help her. We found out about Artemisinin and it is suggested that it be given with K-9 Immunity Plus. We have been giving her four of the K-9 a day and 600mg of Artemisinin. She was diagnosed on March 12, 2013 and is starting her 16th week. We are also giving her 75mg of Deramaxx and the 200mg of Tramadol a day for pain. We are also giving her 250mg of oxytetracycline (over the counter for farm animals). Yesterday we started her on an iron supplement. Her back leg joint does have a lump about the size of a tennis ball on the joint. She has slowed down from her normal self but still demands to go out to play on the field every day and loves her mini ice cream cones. I believe that the K-9 in addition to the Artemisinin and other things has given her four months of quality life and she is still going. We are both so thankful that iherb is here for us.
Westie and Lymphoma
Posted by Reviewer1813367 on Jun 18, 2012
My 8 yr. old westie, Tibber, was diagnosed early March with an agressive lymphoma. He was not a candidate for chemo. Our vet recommended K9 Immunity Plus. We are giving him 3 - 5 wafers a day (the 30 to 70 lb. even though he is 27#) plus making his food (chicken, quinoa, broccoli, flax oil and Twinlab Liquid C), giving him colloidal silver water, Herbs etc. Essiac Tonic, fresh carrot juice and kefir. He took prednisone two different times with a careful diminished dosing but only for a period of one week each time when he had lymph node swelling. Tibber is happy, eating and enjoying his life at this time. We do not have big expectations but are so happy he is still with us. We are very thankful to Aloha Medicinals and the great product they have made available to pet owners.
The Dog Loves It!

So far, after four months of chemotherapy and daily use of K-9 Immunity Plus, my 5-year old mutt seems to be doing very well. My vet read the enclosure information and said nothing in the ingredients was contraindicated with the medication she gets. She has kept her condition, most of her energy and appetite throughout treatment. I will definitely continue to use this product.
We're happy so far
Posted by Reviewer2995310 on Apr 20, 2012
When our 11 yr old Shepherd mix was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, I started reading a lot of cancer blogs to see what others were recommending to aid with their pet's recovery. K9 immunity was mentioned on most of them so I figured it couldn't hurt to give it a try. We started giving her 2 chews a day about 3 weeks post-amputation and within a few days we felt that she was more alert, active and happy. Some may say it was just coincidental but we feel the product played a part in the increased speed of her recovery. They smell good and she seems to really like them.

Another Spaniard Alejandro Valverde was second on the 163.7 kms ninth stage from Antequera with Moreno's Spanish team mate Joaquim Rodriguez in third place.
Overnight leader Nicolas Roche was fourth, eight seconds back, enabling Moreno to take over the race lead by one second from the Irishman.
Italian race favourite Vincenzo Nibali is third, 19 seconds further behind. Moreno, winner of the Fleche Wallone Classic this year, said he had attacked at the same point as Rodriguez had when winning the same stage two years ago.
"Those last 100 metres were interminable, but if there was one day of the Vuelta I could be leader, it was today," Moreno told reporters.
"Nicolas only had a small advantage, so I was determined to try and snatch the lead if I could. I've never led a Grand Tour before, so this was a very special moment for me."
Moreno said there had been no change in the hierachy of the Katusha squad, with Rodriguez, third in last year's race and third in the Tour in July, remaining the team's overall leader.
"I'm the theoretical leader, he's the real one," Moreno said. "There's no jealousy between us. He's going to have his chance later in the race."
Roche was relaxed about losing the race lead that he had managed to defend for just one day.
"I'm one second behind, so it's not that bad, there's time to get it back. Finishing fourth on a climb like that is a sign my legs are in good shape," the Saxo-Tinkoff rider said.
"Yesterday when I took the lead was such a great day that I won't forget, and I hope on tomorrow's climb I'll be able to get that second back on Moreno."
Monday's stage is the last and most difficult of three straight mountain stages, with a summit finish on the 15.8 kms Hazallanas climb in southern Andalusia.

"In her vibrant new cookbook, California native and self-taught cook Newman (Vegan Food Gifts) shares vegan recipes that blend Indian, Mexican, Korean, Filipino, and other international flavors. Playful fusion dishes such as miso mac and cheese, tamale shepherd's pie, and Mexicannoli emphasize fresh ingredients over premade meat and dairy substitutions and encourage readers to try new techniques (e.g., freezing and thawing tofu to release extra moisture, incorporating ground seaweed into condiments). Cooking tips appear throughout, as well as icons denoting gluten-, nut-, and soy-free choices. VERDICT Featuring some exceptionally bold sauces, drinks, and small plates, this well-balanced collection will tempt adventurous vegans. Highly recommended." — Library Journal
"Another book that will help take your home vegan cooking to the next level is Fusion Food in the Vegan Kitchen by Joni Marie Newman. Not content to rely on the dishes of just one country, Newman presents recipes that combine flavors and styles of two or three different countries or cultures." - Nashville Scene

A well-defined business goal focuses an organization on specific tasks and provides a way to measure progress toward the goal. A correlation exists between clearly defined goals and a company's ability to operate efficiently and effectively. However, authors including Mary Ellen Guffey suggest that to maximize a goal's power to keep a company on track, you must consider the attributes of the environment or the culture in which the organization operates.
The Harvard University Department of Economics states that an efficient business is one in which management correctly estimates demand, provides supply that satisfies demand in terms of quantity and quality, and delivers the supply at a reasonable price. However, the authors of "Harvard Economic Studies, Volume 6" also suggest that judging how well an organization achieves these goals must take into account the country-specific requirements of customers. A country's culture influences both the demand for a product and the customer's belief he is paying a fair price for the product.
It's management's responsibility to study a foreign consumer's culture to define distinct business goals that result in the delivery of a set of benefits to the customer. This helps ensure the consumer is willing to pay a price that is greater than the cost to produce the product or service. Only then can decisions be made regarding the production and delivery, pricing, marketing, and research and development of products created specifically for foreign markets.
Each new operating environment for a business brings uncertainty and risk. These include foreign exchange risks, capital-flow restrictions, country risks and different tax systems. Business leaders must anticipate cultural issues in a particular market and adapt their goals to best accommodate these issues for the business to thrive in a different part of the world.
Consumption decisions and buying patterns are influenced by the traditions and values of the culture in which the consumer lives. In turn, successful corporations perceive culture as a reference framework for their strategic actions. These corporations allow product pricing to be influenced by consumer expectations regarding both product value and what constitutes a "fair exchange." In addition, successful organizations develop sales promotions, public relations and advertising in light of the culture of a given market. They also revise their contract-negotiations style to accommodate the customs of an individual country.

What distinguishes a great school from a good school? I believe that clarity of purpose, exceptional teachers, and demonstrated outcomes are hallmarks of great schools. A great school is a place with a deep commitment to student learning, where a faculty nourishes the intellectual, moral, emotional, and social growth of every student. It is a place where students, teachers, and parents embark together on an academic journey with clear and well-defined objectives. It is filled with the joy of discovery and the excitement of personal challenge and growth. It is a community unto itself, dedicated to developing strength of character and excellence in all dimensions of a student's life. And it is a place that has a distinctive and lasting impact on students, developing who they are today and shaping who they will be in the years to come.
The Potomac School strives to be a great school. Our mission, simply put, is to prepare students to achieve academically and to live healthy, principled, and successful lives. The three dynamic women who founded our school set out with this mission in 1904, and it is still what makes Potomac one of the finest independent K-12 day schools in the nation today.
On behalf of our students, faculty, administration, and parents, I welcome you to The Potomac School. I hope you will spend some time getting to know us and learning about the extraordinary education we offer. In the Washington area, Potomac is unique as a coed K-12 school located on a single campus. Just three miles from downtown Washington, our modern campus is surrounded by 90 acres of woods and natural beauty.
Thanks to our talented faculty, we truly get to know each child, including their interests and passions and what lights their intellectual fire. We challenge students with a rigorous program of inquiry and study, and in turn ask that they challenge themselves to higher standards and reach for excellence in all aspects of their lives. We prepare our students intellectually, while developing a love of learning and sound judgment. Ultimately, we provide our graduates a framework for understanding the world and the skills and traits to succeed in it.
I encourage you to explore our website to learn about our curriculum and co-curricular activities, our faculty and staff, and our school community. If you would like to learn more or schedule a visit to Potomac, I invite you to contact our Admission Office.
Again, welcome to The Potomac School!
Sincerely yours,
John KowalikHead of School
Our Mission
The Potomac School's mission is to foster each student's intellectual development, love of learning, and strength of character within an inclusive community distinguished by a spirit of support and challenge.
We encourage students to become independent thinkers and learners. The school's richly varied curriculum draws students beyond a mastery of fundamental skills toward the rewards of inquiry, initiative and reflection. Believing that aesthetic and physical development are essential to an education, we offer students opportunities to excel in art and music classes, on stage, and on the athletic fields.
We expect students to act with kindness, civility, and generosity of spirit, and, in our daily activities, we find opportunities to foster their integrity of character and civic conscience. More than mere tolerance, this standard calls students to act with compassion for others and to reach beyond the school in service to the community.
We strive for diversity in the conviction that a learning community is intellectually and morally strengthened when many different voices, viewpoints, and backgrounds are present.
As we prepare students for a rapidly changing and demanding society, we encourage them to reflect on the beauty that surrounds them and to enjoy the company of their friends and the many traditions celebrated at school.
Our Core Values
Since its founding, The Potomac School has steadfastly believed that developing a student's character is
as important as educating for intellectual growth. Informed by values, students learn to use their
intellect and skills productively and in service to others. The school has identified the following five core
values as the ethical and moral guideposts that enable all of us in the Potomac community to develop
good judgment and live principled lives:

So this morning has been VERY INTERESTING! I burst into tears because I couldn't find a shirt(REALLY!). Then I cried when I was eating my eggs because they smelled different lol! I read that people get emotional while pregnant but I said "that's not going to happen to me I don't cry". I feel crazy..I am only 8 weeks- what in the world. I was seriously crying too not a few tear. Is this happening to anyone else yet?
Crying for no reason!
haha i love that - your eggs smelled different! best reason for crying ever! i've been the same - crying because i couldn't have a cup of tea, crying because it's so cold. i cry loads anyway but i feel like this is just quite something else! i say let it all out and then hopefully you'll feel better. it's normal : )
Don't feel dumb! Last week we went to Chick-fil-A and I got an ice cream cone. As I'm eating it, the top half of the cone drops to the floor, and I immediately start crying - tears streaming down my face crying. I realized how ridiculous it was so I was sort of trying to laugh it off too, but I was really sad about the ice cream! I felt even more ridiculous when one of the workers (who looked like he was twelve) handed me a new ice cream cone and told me it would be ok. I looked like a crazy woman. But the ice cream was delicious
Me (27) DH (28)
Ok i dont feel so badly now..... I cryed yesterday because I couldn't find a pair of FREAKING SOCKS to put on for work... I mean i snot sobbed. Then over the weekend i totally got emotional at walmart because hubs wouldn't tell me what he wanted for dinner and started BAWLING!!!! so i'm trying to WATCH myself BUT yeah those mood swings are UNCONTROLLABLE
OMG sounds like me I just found out yesterday its official Im due in July ..but weeks before I was super Emotional.. Me and my boyfriend joke around all the time n nudge eachother well that specific day I swear I cried 3 times everytime he nudged me. I laughed about it but he would do it again and I felt like crying more. lol I was crying over every lil thing ..
HAHA I was crying at my desk while ready everyone's "get to know you posts"! And with the Lifetime and Hallmark Christmas movie marathons wow! I cried last weekend because my house was dirty and I didn't have the energy to clean it! At least the tears I have shed today are because I saw our baby's heartbeat for the first time!
lol - fun post! I cried the other day because the dog wouldn't stop giving me kisses....really?! A few other times I've felt like crying...but had to just tell myself to laugh it off...too funny.
I LOVE this thread! Mainly because I am totally in the same boat as you ladies. I cried watching the cartoon version of The Grinch last night. Only a movie I have probably seen over 100 times... it was just so heart-touching last night :)
I just laughed so hard reading these! Glad I am not alone :-)
I cried the other day because of a friggin salad.
DH was going to the store after work to get one. I wanted one but I'm picky with dressing and dont like anyof the ones they have set out to put on the salad there, so he would have had to buy me a bottle of dressing.
So he texted me asking if I wanted one and I said "No thats ok. You'd have to buy me a bottle of dressing". Thinking he would say its not a problem and he would get me a salad and buy me a bottle of dressing.
Instead he just said "ok".
So not wanting to be a pain and then go back and ask him for it I got upset and actually cried.
I felt like a friggin idiot!!

By: Robert Mueller
The word "natural" can be defined as "existing in or caused by nature; not made or processed by humankind".
By this definition, most dog foods on the market today would NOT be able to be classified as "natural". And you would think that a diet that contains chemicals that you can't pronounce, and offers ingredients that are of low quality and are far from being "natural" would not qualify as a natural pet food product. But it's not quite that simple…both in the human and the animal realm.
Here's the way the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) sees it for us humans:
"From a food science perspective, it is difficult to define a food product that is 'natural' because the food has probably been processed and is no longer the product of the earth. That said, FDA has not developed a definition for use of the term natural or its derivatives. However, the agency has not objected to the use of the term if the food does not contain added color, artificial flavors, or synthetic substances."
It gets a bit trickier when it comes to pet food labels. (Why is this so often the case?)
According to AAFCO: "Natural" – A feed or ingredient derived solely from plant, animal or mined sources, either in its unprocessed state or having been subjected to physical processing, heat processing, rendering, purification extraction, hydrolysis, enzymolysis or fermentation, but not having been produced by or subject to a chemically synthetic process and not containing any additives or processing aids that are chemically synthetic except in amounts as might occur unavoidably in good manufacturing practices.
You might want to read that again. It's a direct contradiction to the definition of the term "natural". And if you think about what happens in a rendering facility and everything that gets "rendered" (just about everything) the definition is really quite meaningless.
In essence, almost anyone can call their product "natural" without repercussion, making it all the more important to be vigilant in your study of the labels of pet foods on the market today.
Why is it important to use "natural" ingredients in a pet food diet? Using heat to process a dry pet food creates a much different result than what Mother Nature intended. I like to use the analogy of what happens when you cook an egg. Once the alteration and chemical structure is changed there is no way to reverse it. Unfortunately, once it has been altered, the utilization and function is changed and becomes less effective in the body.
The bottom line for all pet caretakers is to try and find the right fuel for the tank. Which ingredients and what processing method produce the most advantageous nutritional result. Ask yourself this question; which diet produces the most natural, untainted, source of balanced nutrition for my pet?
When all comparisons are made, it is really easy to pick out the winner. The one diet formula that meets the challenge of superior ingredient quality, lack of heat processing, and elimination of harmful chemicals and toxins, is a natural, raw meat diet – the BARF Diet.
There are few that can challenge the winner based on these specific criteria. Each pet food product carries specific advantages and disadvantages. No pet food item is 100% a winner in all areas, but it is a hard challenge to find one that supplies the maximum nutrient advantages of a raw meat diet while offering the convenience and health promoting properties unmatched by commercially prepared formulations.
Ben Franklin was remembered for establishing what he called the pro/con comparison chart. He suggested that you take a piece of paper and draw a vertical line down the middle of the paper. On one side, list all the reasons why the product or situation is advantageous and on the other side list all the disadvantages. Your decision will become immediately clear using this exercise because the side that lists the most advantages is the winner.
Try it for yourself and see if you agree with all the benefits of the "BARF DIET". You might also want to review all the qualifications for use of the term "natural" if you see it on your pet food label.
Fortunately, the "BARF DIET " philosophy does qualify as a naturally formulated pet food and as such can consciously be labeled as biologically appropriate for the species.

Speed Bumps on N. California Near Jordan Ineffective
Original post made by Concerned School Neighbor, Leland Manor/Garland Drive, on Nov 11, 2012
Comments (2)
a resident of Jordan Middle School

They aren't speed bumps, they are simply speed tables and cars don't speed as fast as they do on Greer Rd. Plus, there is more visability on North California than on Greer Road.Even if they were speed bumps on N. California, cars could still speed in between the speed bumps.
The speed bumps on Greer Road might as well be speed tables because they have not slowed down cars (I live in the neighborhood and have to take that route often).
In the last year, many cars have been cutting through Greer Rd. and Louis Rd., from OrEx to Embarcadero Rd. and the cars on Greer are traveling much faster than on Louis Rd. I can't figure out where they are all going and why they are cutting through. Either they prefer to enter 101 on Embarcadero or are driving their children to Duveneck.
On Louis Rd., driving North, the morning school hours have up to 6 cars backed up, while last year, there was no back-up or one or two cars. If they open Garland as another elementary and South PA students attend, the back-up on Louis Rd. is going to be insane because it's too far for South PA students to bike or walk.

The ones on Cowper don't seem to slow anyone down, either, esp if they are in an SUV.

Vocal Announce New Business Partnership to Launch Crisis Communication Solution in Australia
Business continuity and communication solution specialist Vocal has announced a strategic alliance with leading crisis management firm CQ Australia, which sees the introduction of its iModus crisis communications solution to the Australian market.
Vocal's iModus portfolio of crisis and emergency notification, enterprise wide on demand messaging and incident management tools is used by governments and corporations across the globe and was employed with great effect to coordinate emergency teams after major business affecting incidents such as Hurricane Sandy, the 7/7 terrorist bombings in London and more recently during the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
'We are excited to announce this new strategic partnership. CQ Australia will now be the sole provider of iModus within Australasia, bringing this industry-leading technology to the region underpinned by dedicated support and CQ Australia's in-depth industry knowledge,' said Trevor Wheatley-Perry, Vocal's Managing Director.
'CQ Australia was the natural choice for Vocal as a local partner, as their experience and dynamic approach to risk and resilience challenges mirrors our own expertise with iModus. The venture will increase our international presence and enhance our business potential'.
Daniel Shields, Director of CQ Australia, sees iModus as a key part of CQ's strategy to provide corporate Australia with the most sophisticated and comprehensive range of crisis management products and services.
'At CQ, our goal is to enhance the way organisations manage crisis events. With iModus, we can now provide a viable and proven alternative to existing crisis communication products, but one that offers enhanced functionality at better value,' he says.
In the search for a new crisis communications platform for the Australian market, Mr Shields says CQ looked at and trialled numerous products from the US, Europe and the UK but 'iModus was the clear leader in crisis communications technology, and an excellent fit for the Australian market'.
'From a crisis management perspective, iModus has everything; it uses front-line technology, dedicated local infrastructure, mobile applications and provides opportunities to significantly improve how organisations develop, control and activate their crisis management and business continuity strategies'.
For more information on iModus visit www.vocal.co.uk (http://www.vocal.co.uk/

Vocal is recognised throughout the industry as a trusted innovator of multi award-winning and proven business continuity and communication solutions. In 2007, Vocal launched iModus; the first fully integrated business continuity suite encompassing Notification, Planning, Mapping, Alerting, Staff Safety and Incident Management modules. iModus has been used by many of the world's largest businesses during major business affecting incidents, for example the 7/7 terrorist attack in London, during the London 2012 Olympics, during riots, and after Hurricane Sandy caused devastation and flooding to the US east coast.
iModus now operates in over 85 countries and is a key part of the critical plans of a large number of global organisations. The latest generation of iModus (2.0) was launched in 2011 to provide a wider global reach including multi-lingual and enterprise editions.
As well as providing solutions to various challenges, Vocal provides its clients with exceptional technical support and accomplished account management underpinned by a 24/7 customer service team ensuring that clients get the most out of their iModus suite.

The God Of Soho (2011)
Playwright: Chris Hannan
Directed by: Raz Shaw
As bracingly modern as Che Walker's The Frontline, which thrilled Globe audiences in 2008 and 2009, The God of Soho is not for the faint-hearted. Bursting with dirty language and filthy content.
The Golden Ass (2002)

Playwright: Helen Edmundson
Directed by: John Dove

Playwright: Francis Beaumont

Combining salty colloquial prose with charming songs, The Knight of the Burning Pestle was one of the first madcap, mash-up, screwball comedies to hit the English stage and the first to run not one but two plays within-the-play simultaneously.

Hi all.
I've only just noticed that WP seems to convert 3 full stops (periods, for all you Americanos) into an ellipsis when a post is published. I'd like to switch this auto conversion off but can't find any help on the matter.
I should also mention that I am using the TinyMCE Advanced plug-in, just in case that makes a difference.
Can anybody give me a solution or clue where to start?

I have a heavy reading workload as a result of my two majors, which is sometimes difficult to manage. The professors in both departments care about the success of their students and are willing to help in any way.
Being a double major in Psychology and Neuroscience is amazing. The classes are led by quirky professors and the small class sizes allow a one on one learning opportunity.
There are majors at UE that I had no idea were options to begin with. Alongside the choices there, there are numerous other opportunities with their study abroad program at Harlaxton College, where classes that can't be found anywhere else are offered and taught by professors all over the US.
Business Management and Marketing are awesome majors to be in, the professors are very welcoming and helpful. So far the workload has not been that bad, but I just finished my freshman year.
There are a broad range of majors and minors that are offered. The professors in all areas are some of the best and have great relationships with their students. The registration process is good, fair in that it goes by grade level and the honor students getting to go ahead of others is a good incentive.

Centers of Excellence in Genomic Science
The Human Genome Project (HGP) has produced a wealth of genomic data. The next challenge is to discover and analyze the vast amount of biological information contained within it. The Centers of Excellence in Genomic Science (CEGS) program supports the formation of multi-investigator, interdisciplinary research teams to develop novel and innovative genomic research projects, using the data sets and technologies developed by the HGP.
Each CEGS will conduct highly innovative research designed to develop new concepts, methods, technologies, or ways to analyze data that will substantially advance the state of the art in genomic approaches to the study of a biological problem. Thus, CEGS research will ultimately foster the wider application of comprehensive, high-throughput genomics methods to the study of human biology and disease.
A CEGS will require visionary leadership and strong management. While use of the Multi-PI option is permitted, the requirement for the contact PI to devote significant effort is intended to provide the focus needed to drive the project toward its goals.
Each CEGS is also required to have a training component that leverages the strengths of CEGS and its investigators to train the next generation of interdisciplinary scientists, who will bring creative approaches to studying biological problems through a genomic approach. This component of the program includes a specific focus on engaging the talents of individuals from underrepresented minority groups. (See: Minority Action Plan and the Minority Action Plan Portal and Research Tool)
View a printable version of this section.
A successful CEGS must include ALL of the following:
- A CEGS is highly innovative, being designed to develop new concepts, methods, technologies, or ways to produce or analyze comprehensive data sets, or on a particular genome-scale biomedical problem, or on other ways to develop and use genomic approaches for understanding biological systems and/or significantly furthering the application of genomic knowledge, data and methods towards clinical applications.
- A CEGS proposes a very substantial advance to addressing a critical issue in genomic science or genomic medicine. Achieving a substantial advance entails risk; this is balanced by the potential for very high payoff and requires an outstanding scientific plan and effective management strategy.
- A CEGS is a tightly focused project implemented by a multi-investigator, interdisciplinary team working in a highly integrated fashion. Components of the program must be interdependent, not simply related. Synergy and integration are key.
- A CEGS will lay out a specific and substantive "product" that can be identified as having been the outcome of CEGS funding.
- A CEGS will take on challenging aspects of a problem, including ones that have slowed progress in the chosen area of research.
- A CEGS will increase the pool of professional scientists and engineers able to work in or use genomics, by offering innovative, substantive education and outreach opportunities across appropriate disciplines. It will integrate the training of new and broaden the training of established investigators. Graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, at a minimum, should participate in the research; however, that participation alone is insufficient as an education and outreach effort.
Additional characteristics of a CEGS:
- A CEGS project may include an ELSI component if it is integrated with and closely related to the main focus or theme of the project.
- Establishing a CEGS at an institution must add value beyond ongoing activities in genomics at that institution.
- A CEGS project may propose very substantial improvement in current technology, to increase throughput and decrease cost.
- A CEGS may choose a cell, organism, tissue, pathway, or disease as a model system in which to develop the concepts or methods, but those concepts or methods must be broadly applicable well beyond the chosen example.
A CEGS is NOT:
- The obvious next step in a project or field, which could be accomplished by assembling state-of-the-art components and innovating at the level of a typical R01;
- A program project;
- Infrastructure for an existing program or department;
- Primarily for the collection of a dataset in the absence of a novel concept or methodological approach;
- "Only" outstanding science that fails to meet the criteria required of a CEGS.

By David San MiguelAugust 22, 2013
Army Contracting Command will celebrate its fifth anniversary with a formal dining out at the Summit on Redstone Arsenal, Ala., Oct. 1.
All ACC and Expeditionary Contracting Command headquarters military, civilian and contractor staff members and their guests are invited to attend.
ACC was established on Oct. 1, 2008 at Fort Belvoir, Va., as a subordinate command of the Army Material Command.
According to Art Forster, ACC Public and Congressional Affairs director and
chairman of the dining out committee, the
event is based on the traditional military dining in which traces its roots back to ancient times. The dining out includes spouses and other guests from outside the military unit.
Dress for the evening is the Army Service Uniform with bow tie or Blue Mess for military attendees; dark business suit or tuxedo for men; and formal evening attire for women. Military retirees may wear their formal uniforms. Veterans attending the event are encouraged to wear their miniature medals on their civilian coat or tuxedo.
Guest speaker will be Gen. Dennis L. Via, AMC commanding general. Maj. Gen. Camille M. Nichols, ACC commanding general, will serve as the host and President of the Mess. Entertainment will be provided by the AMC band.
Headquarters volunteers will host a series of fundraisers between now and October to help defray some of the event costs, Forster said.
"We want as many members of the workforce as possible to attend this special event. The dining out enhances unit esprit de corps and gives the commander an opportunity to meet socially with subordinates," he said. "It enables military and civilians to strengthen friendships and working relationships in an atmosphere of good cheer and fellowship."
The origin of the dining out can be traced to Roman times when military commanders would host banquets to honor military units and their warriors. These gatherings were often victory celebrations where past feats were recognized and treasures of recent conquests were paraded.
The dining in eventually spread to non-military groups, such as the Saxon nobles of the 10th century and medieval monasteries where the clergy spread the custom to academies and universities. The British officer corps, with many graduates at these centers of learning, carried the tradition back to military units. Americans, taking many of their traditions from the British, held formal mess dinners in the 18th and 19th centuries.
During World War II, the custom was revived in the U.S. military, initially in the U.S. Army Air Forces 8th Air Force based in Great Britain. There, the AAF officers were invited to participate in the Royal Air Force Mess Nights and then were obligated to reciprocate.
"ACC is continuing that tradition," Forster said, "and we're confident this will, indeed, be a memorable evening."
Formal invitations with additional information will be distributed soon.

ROME (Reuters) - Dozens of African child migrants are having to sleep on the bare earth outside the reception center on Italy's Lampedusa following an upsurge in the number of boats reaching the tiny island, agency Save the Children said on Saturday. Lampedusa is wrestling with a big backlog in unaccompanied minors because Italian authorities stopped considering North Africa as being in a state of emergency some months ago, meaning no national agency is now charged with housing them. ...
