I installed the myFTP plugin, to edit a js source file.
Without FTP, I couldn't see any of the site files, let along change anything.
I browsed down to the file I wanted, copied the text and backed out.
But when I went to re-upload the file, the path is the base URL and not the website URL. In the settings, it still shows the http://www.websitename.com for the website URL, images, etc.
I uninstalled the myFTP plugin - but all the posts relating to fixing this problem require me to access the files I could not get at in the first place, without myFTP.

Real Estate
Housing is still as affordable as it was a decade ago
- From: News Limited Network
- March 20, 2014
DESPITE what many buyers may think, new research has revealed Australian homes are still as affordable as they were a decade ago.
Analysis by CommSec chief economist Craig James has revealed that home prices are about four times household disposable income.
He said this ratio was broadly unchanged from a decade ago.
"Over the past decade disposable income per household has risen around 70 per cent while the
average home price has lifted around 67 per cent,'' he said.
"Home prices may be up, but so are disposable incomes,'' he said.
Mr James said Australians had become richer over time and in the past decade, incomes had grown slightly faster than home prices.
"But broadly over the decade little has changed in terms of home affordability — it has gone
sideways,'' he said.
He said certainly people spent more on homes and had bigger and better homes than they did a decade ago, so they thought housing was less affordable.
But he said when you looked at it from a purely financial ratio, things had not changed much.
"Certainly homes are less affordable than 20 years ago, but that is not because income growth has been sluggish, but because wealthier Australians, using lower interest rates, and benefiting
from more affordable basic necessities like food, clothing and transport, have channelled extra dollars into the family home.
"Homes are bigger and of higher quality than 20 years ago.''
Mr James said the latest figures from the RP Data/Rismark Home value index showed the median price of a home across Australia, was $450,000.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics national accounts estimate of disposable income per household was $111,919.
"Over the past year the median home price rose by 5.9 per cent, outpacing the 1.7 per cent lift in income per household,'' Mr James said
"But interestingly over the past decade, the average income per household has risen by 70.6 per cent, outpacing a 66.7 per cent lift in home prices.''
According to RP Data, many of Australia's most affordable suburbs are in South Australia, Queensland or Tasmania.
It found Elizabeth Vale, in Adelaide was Australia's most affordable capital city suburb.
The northern Adelaide suburb has a median property value of $143,452.
Recent sales include, 21 Rollison Rd, Elizabeth Vale which sold for $195,000.
Nearby Elizabeth North was the second most affordable suburb with a median property value of $159,438. The suburb was established by the South Australian Housing Trust in 1955.
Recent sales include 11 Chirton St, Elizabeth North which sold for $142,500.

Ridgeland, Miss.
C Spire has selected nine Mississippi cities to receive its 1 Gig Fiber to the Home Internet service.
The Ridgeland-based company says the initiative gives homes in Mississippi a chance for Internet speeds of up to 1 gigabit per second, about 100 times the average speed.
The company says the cities are: Batesville, Clinton, Corinth, Hattiesburg, Horn Lake, McComb, Quitman, Ridgeland and Starkville.
C Spire says 33 Mississippi communities applied for the Internet service.
The company say Monday's announcement is the first phase of C Spire's Fiber to the Home program. The company plans for a statewide deployment of the service.
Quitman Mayor Eddie Fulton says it's an unbelievable opportunity to create a network becoming the most technologically-advanced small city in the state.
C Spire said it hopes to have the first city connected by sometime in 2014.
The company is already offering high-speed, high-bandwidth connections to schools and businesses.

I am trying to modify the contents of the widget area defined in the header (sidebar) of a Genesis child theme.
I have used the PHP Text Widget to use a simple PHP based ad image switch in the header widget from the header widget in the admin area:
<?php if ( is_home() ) { ?>
...show ad 1
<?php }
else { ?>
...show ad 2
<?php } ?>
however this seems cludgy and I want to place the decision logic in the functions.php instead of the widget in the admin area.
What is the most elegant way and best practice to achieve this?
Many thanks.

Last time I posted on this topic I included some brief videos (extremely blurry videos, I will admit) that displayed how I planned to employ note taking software, dictation software, and geography/mapping apps with my students.
In the time since I've written that post I've managed to employ SimpleNote a bit, but have found the most functionality in using the iPad for my own reading and research. While I find SimpleNote handy for jotting down ideas for reading questions, for resources to use in upcoming lessons, and for ideas that strike me during meetings, I haven't applied it directly to taking notes about student performance. Instead, I've been trying to be really diligent about making observations and collecting my thoughts about students in a series of Google Docs organized according to class period.

iPad. The iPad Classroom. Umami Wants to Be the Ultimate Second Screen App for iPad. Umami is a new iPad app that aims to bring an enhanced, second-screen experience to broadcast and cable TV programming.
Second screen apps are becoming standard fare for networks. Using audio fingerprinting technology, these apps can tell what you're watching — and provide an updated, customized experience based on the show. At the Mashable Media Summit last week, second screen experiences were highlighted as one of the major media trends of 2012. Until now, however, most of these experiences have been crafted specifically around one show or network. This requires users to download individual apps for the shows or networks they frequently watch.

The FY 2004 Request for the Environmental Biology (DEB) Subactivity is $104.77 million, an increase of $5.0 million, or 5.0 percent, from the FY 2003 Request of $99.77 million.
Environmental Biology Funding
The Environmental Biology Subactivity supports fundamental research on the origins, functions, relationships, and evolutionary history of populations, species, and higher taxa, and on the interactions within and dynamics of biological communities and ecosystems. Studies can be conducted in any natural or human-impacted biotic system of the world, and can address the species of or genealogical relationships among plants, animals, and microbes; the flux of energy and materials in ecosystems; and the principles or rules by which species function in communities and evolve through time.
In FY 2004, core activities in the DEB Subactivity are increased by $5.0 million to enhance support for multidimensional, multidisciplinary, integrative and data-driven research focused on understanding ecological and evolutionary patterns and processes. Such research seeks to achieve the overarching goal of 21st Century Biology: to understand life at both its most fundamental level and in all its complexity. Exciting progress and integration of advances in genomics, informatics, computer science, sensors, GIS and satellite imagery, mathematics, physics, chemistry, and engineering offer the promise of realizing this ambitious goal as DEB supported researchers collaborate in multidisciplinary teams.
Highlights of areas supported:
Multidisciplinary research on complex systems. Recent advances in computation, mathematics and modeling techniques support studies of the functioning of complex ecosystems. In the world's first large-scale rainfall manipulation experiment, researchers studying the Amazon are using empirical and modeling approaches over a five-year period to establish the level of drought stress that this rainforest can tolerate before large trees begin to die. These results are invaluable for understanding climate change since rainforests contribute substantially to the carbon dioxide dynamics of the atmosphere and worldwide they are experiencing stronger droughts as El Niño episodes become more frequent and severe.
Living Networks research involves fundamental analytical and synthetic studies on interactions between and among organisms, humans and their abiotic settings. During the summer of 2002, western North America experienced one of the largest forest fires in recorded history. The Biscuit Fire burned nearly one half million acres of mostly pristine habitats in Oregon and California. One project is using burned and unburned sites left by this fire to address questions in community ecology. At replicated sites, researchers will exclude ants, a major seed dispersal agent, and test for effects on plant community composition and growth. This work will significantly extend our knowledge of ant-plant community interactions and re-establishment after catastrophic fire.
Recent genome-enabled science and information
technologies also underpin DEB support for exploration of the diversity
and history of life on earth. Madagascar is home to some of the most rare
and endangered organisms
on Earth. A DEB supported study of the evolutionary history of Malagasy
vertebrates using genomic tools will help us understand the consequences
of environmental change for vertebrate speciation and human impact on
genetic diversity of forest-dependent species. This research can inform
conservation policy for one of earth's most ecologically diverse and threatened

I paid it, I figured the Dept. of Treasury, what could go wrong. She promised an ATM card,however, when it was time to ship it, she decided to go with another shipper and charge additional fees. Through U.S. customs probably as high as $3,890.00 more.
Stephanie Frantagelo of 302 Crewe Court Bushkill, PA 18324 is the name of her receiver for Western Union
and they are not offering any refunds or services for all the money I paid. She said it was against The U.S. Department of Treasury's policy. (I figured the Dept. of Treasury) How can I report these theives for a refund to the proper authorities?

Add your comment...
|Here are some details about my project:
|Romantic, Retro / Vintage, Traditional, Classic
What materials did you use? I re-focus vintage sterling brooches and earrings into shawl pins. I use sterling silver, a torch, and solder. Yellow orchre and a "heat sink" have proved useful The left and center shawl pins are old brooches and the right is an earring that have been reworked.
What are you most proud of? The pins are a pleasure to wear and they really keep the knitted shawls closed with style. Old jewelry items that often just sit in a drawer can be enjoyed in a new way. I haven't seen this idea being used elsewhere. I have made about 15 pins so far, and with exception of those from earrings, no two are alike.
What advice would you give someone starting this project? Take your time. Think ahead and do your problem solving BEFORE you light the torch. Use the principles that different solders melt at different temperatures and yellow orchre stops the flow of solder to your advantage, Be willing to work in stages rather than trying to solder everthing at one time--it may be my technique but I sweat solder and pick solder a lot when I work on these projects. Pay attention to the finishing on both sides of the piece--you don't want anything to snag your knitted item. I often do the final polishing with a clean piece of nylon stocking to check for sharp or rought spots. Don't use a brooch or earring you treasure for the basis of this project--family heirlooms don't belong here unless you are willing to take a chance on losing them. Relax and enjoy yourself--the end results are worth the time and effort.

You know what the hardest part about golf is? Swinging the club consistently, so why not skip that part completely?
EZee golf allows you to do so by pulling some trigger and propelling the golf ball down the fairway, or at the green, without making a swing at all.
The video was posted a year ago on YouTube, and as Geoff Shackelford points out, is not an April Fools Joke at all, but a real thing you can buy and use to play "golf."
I'm not sure what my favourite part of this video is, but it might be the conversation that an agent had with these actors to appear in the video.
"Yeah, it's a golf product." "Well, I don't play golf." "That actually won't be a problem."
(You can have one of these bad boys for just a slim $799, or the whole set that lands a price tag of $999)

The part, number PCE909-KS0-GF37AXAH was sent on October 16th, and arrived at my fathers home on October 17th. My father called, as he had been instructed, to inform Polaroid that the part had arrived. He was told a technician would be there to install it within 24 to 48 hours from the next business day, which was the next day, October 18, 2007.
Expecting the technician to come no later than October, 19th, my father waited patiently until October 22nd before again calling the customer service number. He was told the same thing again. He waited until October 24th before calling again and receiving the same answer. Calls on October 25th, 26th, 29th, and 30th yielded the same message and result, specifically nothing. On October 31st he called again and became so frustrated with the customer service representative that he had a mild heart attack after hanging up.
At this point I became involved. I called the customer service number that same day and told them what had happened. The customer service representative was very polite and promised to bring the situation to the attention of his manager. Another call on November 1st, and a demand to speak to a manager, got me nowhere; despite assurances from the manager that the situation would now have corporate attention.
After one last call on November 2nd yielded no results, we returned the television to Wal-Mart, where it had been purchased. The Wal-Mart electronics manager also called Polaroid and got no results. He was informed that every time the customer called they were automatically moved tot the end of the queue for that day. We decided that either we were being lied to, or that Polaroids system was the most obtuse one that could possibly be devised. The Wal-Mart manager agreed to refund the purchase price at that time, and we bought a Sharp LCD television for only $150 dollars more. The picture is better, the remote easier to use, and it was much easier to set up. My father is thrilled with the new television.
I think Polaroid's customer service is appalling, and it is abhorrent that they delayed and deferred their service to the point that it caused an old man to have a heart attack. It is unconscionable that even after being informed their inaction had caused a heart attack that Polaroid still did nothing.

He is indeed a Sociopathic liar. And, BEWARE as I hear these personalities can become dangerous when they are backed into a corner. I beleive that any replies to the previous reporters complaints were made by Purselley himself. I beleive he is still operating in the Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Denver area. I also beleive that he has existing connections in Denver that assisted him in the scam he perpetrated on me. I still know how to reach this suspect individual. Ever since this terrible experience I have become a skeptic and ALWAYS run as many back-round checks on clients as are available to me on-line. Consider yourself warned.

text: My professor hinted that a question similar in manner to theone above would likely be on our midterm exam. I have been tryingto do this question for quite some time and am stuck. I do notreally understand how to apply nodal analysis to thisspecific question. I believe that the node with the 4 wires runninginto it is the reference node but where and how to go from there, Ihave no idea (without using superposition or loop-currentanalysis). Any any help would be greatly appreciated.

A full-wave signal with a peak of 14V is the input to achoke-input filter. If Xl = 1 k ohm and Xc= 50 ohms what isthe approximate peak to peak ripple across the capacitor?
This is what I know: Vr (ripple) = I/fc
where: I is load current
f is ripple frequency (for full wave signal f=120 Hz)
C is capacitance
C can be found from the formula: Xc = I/(*pi*fC)
rearanging allows you to get C,
so I have all my variables except for I. I do not knowhow to get I. I have the voltage, BUt I do not know theresistance... is the total resistance the Xl+Xc or how would I goabout getting the load current. any help is much appreciated.thanks.

im sure that all automotive repair stores give estemats over the phone insted of waisting the customer and the shop time , and that will be a great ideia to get a ballpark price before going to any automotive store,
one other way is to use the internet, eather for cupons
or for an estemate of a repair ,

ANZ Frequent Flyer Black Ad
It seems that the frequent flyer partnership between Singapore Airlines and Virgin Australia doesn't quite go the whole distance.
SQ's KrisFlyer members can earn KrisFlyer Miles when travelling on Virgin Australia flights but not the 'Elite Miles' status credits which catapult you to KrisFlyer Silver and Gold status.
The later is especially useful because it comes with higher luggage allowance and equates to Star Alliance Gold, delivering extra privileges on Star Alliance airlines including Air New Zealand, United, Asiana and Lufthansa.
But if you were counting on a few Virgin Australia flights to help earn and keep KrisFlyer status, check the fine print in your Singapore Airlines statement, which states "KrisFlyer members cannot earn Elite Miles when travelling on Virgin Australia flights."
A Singapore Airlines spokeswoman confirmed to Australian Business Traveller that "KrisFlyer status credits/Elite Miles cannot be earned by KrisFlyer members travelling on Virgin Australia flights."
Virgin Australia is a little more generous, allowing Velocity frequent flyers to earn points and status credits on SQ flights.
Likewise, Qantas lets you earn status credits on flights with all oneworld partners such as American Airlines, British Airways, Cathay Pacific, Finnair and JAL.

I too went to the presentation (Albany, NY) and got a certificate for free travel. We had to choose 3 dates and destinations; which was no biggie. But, when the company replied via regular mail and I realized that I **had** to reply via reg mail, I got a bad feeling in my gut.
If you're like me and **have** to plan your trips **many months** in advance (to request the time off and save up the $$) this process will drive you insane. And, you have to be a brain surgeon to select the correct dates, per their criteria. I went back & forth via snail mail about that, too!
Needless to say, the first two dates "weren't available". By that time, my co-workers were looking at me with daggers in their eyes because **no one** could schedule **their** vacations until I knew for sure when I'd be traveling. It got down to the wire so I called and asked if anyone knew when I'd be traveling and was told that my 2nd choice to travel wasn't available (no foolin'). But, the good news was that I could travel on the 3rd date. Of course that was the only date left. . . . . . . duh.
This process was a pain in the keister from the beginning and a real waste of time. I'm so glad I made a reservation for my timeshare just in case.

The self pronounced king of "ultra low fares" is the ultra rip off when it comes to add on fees. Not to pile on but the leg room on the flight out was one of the worst I have experienced. They make a claim, as others do, about having lots of leg room. I found that to be a rather large exageration. The plane was tired and old. They chose to make the flight, which was full, with only one serviceable bathroom in operation.
Be prepared to pay for a standard carry on which all other carriers never would think of charging you for. I have traveled a lot and this was the worst and most ill conceived concept I had the disgusting pleasure of partaking in. I asked for water on the beverage service and the told me that would be $3. No thanks!!
The experience with their website left me feeling like they are trying to pull the wool over peoples eyes. Everything is buried, and they apparently don't want to hear feedback.
This was a experience I hope I can save others from having to go through. Save money and aggrevation, pick any other airline.

What made up the fees?
AUTHOR: Robert - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Friday, August 10, 2012POSTED: Friday, August 10, 2012
If you add in all of the fees you were charged were they still cheaper overall than the next airline you looked at(once you add in all of their fees).
By they way I would never fly Spirit unless there was absolutely no other flight available and I had to be at a location.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Cellular and Subcellular Mechanics
Principal Investigators: Micah Dembo and Evan Evans
Experiments use extremely sensitive mechanical probes, novel materials and advanced optical microscopy to expose the physical actions and material properties of single cells and of the ultra fine macro molecular machines sensors and transducers that drive and control cellular and subcellular processes. Advanced computational methods are needed for data processing to obtain solutions for equations and for the final physical analysis used to establish definitive mechanistic interpretations of experimental data. A core teaching laboratory for training in nano-to-micro mechanical instrumentation has been set up to enable students and faculty to develop new research projects in biomedical engineering.
- We have a goal of achieving force measurements with resolution on the scale of the thermal energy divided by a molecular dimension (approximately 10E-10 gm wt!). We are also trying to develop non-invasive detectors that will be capable of measuring displacements with resolution of a few nanometers at very high temporal rates
- We are conducting studies to investigate the role of structural mechanics in regulating biochemical pathways, biological adhesion phenomena, cytoskeletal deformation and active cellular motility
- We are developing novel materials that mimic the interfacial properties of natural biomaterials and we are studying the interactions of cells with such artificial substrata
- We are developing novel biomaterials as substrata for control of cell adhesion and cell motility. For example, materials with patterned surface modifications are used to investigate the effect of their physical, chemical, and mechanical properties on interactions with living cells

In March I was charged for service from AOL on my debit card. I called to get that taken care of (which never happened) and they continued to cahrge me for three more months.
I finally called my bank to stop AOL from billing me anymore. The bank said they can do that as well as get my other money back as long as they had a copky of the cancellation letter.
The bank said that when the charges were blocked from my account and sent back to AOL, AOL would finally get the drift and stop charging me. AOL charged me over $100, which i got back and the stop payment fee was only $15

TIOBE Releases its April 2010 Programming Index
C returns to the number one spot after a 4-year hiatus
The TIOBE Programming Community index, which tracks the popularity of programming languages released its April 2010 list and while there wasn't much of a shakeup in the top 10, C topped Java as the number one programming language, the first time in four years.
Outside of the 10 were only a few movers and shakers. Objective C, a language primarily used to develop for the iPhone's OS, went from number 42 last year to number 11. ActionScript, which is used in conjunction with flash, rose by three spots to number 19 and Google's Go language made its debut at 15.
The community index provides a snapshot for the month, but also helps document larger trends. It's no surprise that Objective C saw a bump, as the language has nothing but rise in popularity since the launch of the iPhone and now the iPad. Java continues its decline from the 26% share it held in 2001 and Go started strong after being introduced last year, but interest is slowly waning.
The TIOBE index is updated monthly with a mix of third party vendors, engineers and courses contributing to a language's overall rating. For the full list visit the TIOBE software index.

What I'm waiting for is someone to say we can't be building a stadium in this economy.
I'll save them some time. Since this has been talked about since the early 90s. why wasn't it built during the boom years of the 90s. Maybe the Bay Area wasn't affected by that boom. Oh, that's right it was the .com boom which was based out of where? The SF Bay area.
But of course at that time, we had so much on our politically correct agenda that we didn't have time to reward the most winning franchise in SF Bay Area a new stadium.
Our heads were too far up our a**es and we had to build one for the .500 baseball team that call SF home in order to reward our steriod loaded HR champion.

The problem is in:
- return val + if isinstance(val, basestring): + return smart_unicode(val) + else: + return val
which makes it impossible to store binary strings. You have to encapsulate it in dummy objects, otherwise.
I still don't know why is it necessary to convert it to str (encode utf8) and back. Python memcached 1.43 pickles anything different to int, long, str, which should work fine with unicode.

comment:4 Changed 7 years ago by russellm
#12178 was a dupe with a slightly different approach in the patch (manually specifying that the unicode conversion should be skipped).

I'm working on adding tests to this.

I created a new diff that includes the patch and a test. The new test fails before the patch is applied and all cache tests pass after it's applied. Tested with memcached 1.4.4 and python-memcached 1.4.5.

Tests pass for me against dummy, file, and locmem backends as well.
