With less than a week to go until the start of the World Cup, we consulted our offices across Europe in order to compile a list of the 50 players to watch at Brazil 2014.
The list exhibits both talent fulfilled and potential untapped and includes at least one player from every nation.
Here are numbers 10 to 1:
- Numbers 50-41
- Numbers 40-31
- Numbers 30-21
- Number 20-11
10. Mario Balotelli (Italy)
Controversial, unpredictable but also lethal in front of goal, Balotelli showed what he can do on the big stage at Euro 2012 and could be key to whether Italy are amongst the trophy contenders in Brazil. If he's firing on all cylinders throughout the month, the nation's team spirit laced with Balotelli's goals and Pirlo's threat at set pieces will be extremely difficult to beat. Of course, the key reason 'Super Mario' doesn't make it any higher than 10 was highlighted by his hot-and-cold first full season at AC Milan. Which Balo will show up?
9. Yaya Toure (Ivory Coast)
In 2010, Ghana came agonisingly close to finally realising the potential most experts have claimed African nations possess at World Cups for yonks. And if you were to pick out one African talent in 2014 who could spark an even better campaign than the Black Stars' run to the last eight four years ago, it's box-to-box beast Yaya Toure. Though a magnificent, title-winning season with Man City was soured at the end by an unbelievable story casting doubt over his Etihad future because of how the club celebrated his birthday, such manoeuvring for a transfer/pay rise will be firmly on hold when he looks to help his nation (and continent) to new frontiers in Brazil.
8. Franck Ribery (France)
From a mental standpoint, perhaps no player at the World Cup is as potentially-dangerous as cultured winger Ribery. He was absolutely furious that he was overlooked for the 2013 Ballon d'Or award in favour of Cristiano Ronaldo despite Bayern Munich claiming the treble that year, and having helped the Bavarians retain two of those three pieces of silverware whilst helping Les Bleus salvage their road to Brazil via the play-offs, Ribery now has the opportunity to out-shine both Ronaldo and fellow Ballon shortlister Lionel Messi at the big tournament and prove a major point.
7. Diego Costa (Spain)
Injury soured a great season for the Brazilian-born forward, as after Atletico's Liga title win he was handed a start in the Champions League final in Lisbon despite not being fully ready to participate and was withdrawn before the 10 minute mark. However, signs are encouraging during Spanish pre-tournament training for a man who could provide the cutting edge up top which revives the 'tiki-taka' concept in time for a staggering fourth straight major international tournament win for the reigning world champions.
6. Thiago Silva (Brazil)
Silva is one of the world's top centre-backs, and though the eyes of a nation will focus on the likes of Neymar as Brazil strive for a sixth World Cup in front of their own, the PSG man will be just as crucial at the other end of the pitch if the tournament's greatest-ever participants are to extend their trophy record. The next month serves as the perfect opportunity for Silva to underscore his leadership qualities and enter the history books with a potential seven inspirational performances from the back.
5. Eden Hazard (Belgium)
Many Chelsea fans and Belgian fanatics felt Hazard's contributions to the 2013/14 season were largely overlooked, with names such as Ronaldo and Suarez on an absolute tear. As the creative star of the tournament dark horses, Hazard could do some serious damage to sides who expect to have too much experience or name value for Belgium. Hazard has constantly wowed over the last four years for Lille, Chelsea and his country, and the World Cup in Brazil will be his biggest platform yet.
4. Luis Suarez (Uruguay)
Suarez proved in the past season what he can do when he isn't bringing football into disrepute with his reprehensible antics. Tempered by Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers, Suarez was deservedly crowned England's best player in 13/14 as he broke goalscoring records and almost inspired the Reds to an unthinkable league title. Some feel Uruguay do not have enough as a team to go all the way in Brazil but Suarez's talent, form and undeniable desire to win (like it or not, that 2010 handball against Ghana paid off) makes it impossible to jump to conclusions.
3. Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal)
Ronaldo quelled a great deal of burning ambition this season, finally beating Messi to claim another Ballon d'Or, helping Real Madrid clinch that long-elusive Decima of European Cups and finally convincing many that he, not the Argentine at Barcelona, is the best player in the world today. Why is he third here? Well, will he be fully fit at the World Cup? That could be the deciding factor as to whether CR7 can eradicate Portugal's status as perennial also-rans and clinch them the major international trophy they've come close to in the past. "With a goal a game, when Ronaldo starts it feels like we start 1-0 up" said Real boss Carlo Ancelotti. Every Portuguese football fan will be praying that he remains fit enough to give them seven 'head-starts' in Brazil.
2. Neymar (Brazil)
Neymar has been Brazil's top sporting celebrity for some time now - barely a week would pass without another amazing highlight reel of his skills at Santos - and now he has moved onto a bigger club platform with Barcelona, he returns home for what could be the crowning moment of a career which may yet have over another decade to run. Neymar stands a very strong chance of being the man who fires the host nation to an unprecedented sixth World Cup. Between his explosive attacking, mesmerising ball skills, versatile goal threat and much-maligned gamesmanship (face it: even a player going down easily from a light challenge could be enough to decide the final), the 22-year-old has the world - and this World Cup - at his feet.
1. Lionel Messi (Argentina)
That Messi has endured his most disappointing season in recent years for Barcelona in the immediate run-up to this tournament hasn't fooled many - especially when his national form has, to the contrary, picked up in the face of questions over whether Lionel applied himself as much for his country as he always did at Camp Nou. Messi remains THE man to be wary of, with his Argentine team-mates supplying superior service and back-up than Ronaldo's Portugal or Suarez's Uruguay, and his long run as the sport's premier name offering far more experience of the 'big dance' than Brazil's Neymar or Belgium's Hazard. Do not be surprised in the least bit if Brazil 2014 is the setting for where Lionel Messi finally completes his trophy collection.

This web site is almost all "KILL" organizations even though they say they help to save animals and are a "NO KILL" organization. We have tried to adopt animals using this site and most of the animals that are listed in our area are either no longer available or they do not know anything about the animal.
The animals from the organizations on this site are victims of euthanasia very quickly because the organizations say they must make space for others coming in all of the time. When you go to look at the animals they are in very poor shape and do not look like they would be adoptable at all. You ask about the ones on the web site and they say that they change so fast that they can not keep up with the listing on the web site.

http://www.geoideas.net is my site. Look at portfolio, then presentations. the popup submenu has an extra space on its left. I must've put in something I should'nt have in style.css but I dunno where. Does anyone have an idea? Thanks.
It's not easy to gt good css help here because it's not specific to wp. So you'll have to settle for me (haha).
try this:
#access ul ul li, #access2 ul ul li, #access3 ul ul li {
padding: 0;
Then get Mozilla Firebug.
But this changes padding on the whole nav, so try:
#access3 {
padding: 0;
One thing I can't do in firebug is isolate part of a div class or id and preview it by itself. Hope this is right.
Ok, the problem is that effects spacing between menu items too.
Yes, that's why you have to isolate the element that you want to change, I was unable to do that in Firebug. I don't know what the css for the flyout menus looks like. But one of those elements must be it, may just be a matter of trial and error. Or maybe someone else may know and lend a hand here. But like I say, this isn't a css forum.
this works for the twentyten theme, maybe the same for yours?
.sub-menu {
padding: 0px;
I found the name of the element in the wp core files, so it's probably the same.
I'm using weaver 2010, so they should be similar, but I don't see a "sub-menu" anywhere.
Here's the thing. I know how to do it. I just set this to 0px:
div.menu li {
float: left;
position: relative;
padding: 0px 8px;
The problem is that also takes away padding from the menu items. So another way to solve this is to find what else can make padding between menu items.
You don't have to find the css for it, just paste
.sub-menu {
padding: 0px;
at the end of style.css. It will override previous if it exists. if no change, then it's called something else.
must be something else, no dice.
hmm, well, as the first code I posted DOES do what you want, it's just a matter of trying each identifier untill it produces the good result. did you try each of these seperately?
#access ul ul li {
#access2 ul ul li, {
#access3 ul ul li {
Yep. I just post them at the end of style.css?
yes, at the very end, one at a time.
It's odd because I would assume since this is a core function it would be the same from theme to theme. Can't see why the .sub-menu one doesn't do it.
Maybe it just doesn't override the code that adds the padding?
Yes, but that element is always described as "padding" so I can't see how that could be. hmmm.
this seems to do it too!
#access ul ul li, #access2 ul ul li, #access3 ul ul li {
max-width: 160px;
min-width: 160px;
and it doesn't appear to mess up anything else..
Hi your problem is here:
left: 10px; to left: 20px; (bare with me it does work).
#access ul ul, #access2 ul ul, #access3 ul ul {
box-shadow: 0 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
display: none;
float: left;
left: 10px;
padding: 0;
position: absolute;
top: 38px;
width: 200px;
z-index: 99999;
and here remove
padding: 0 8px; with padding: 0;
#access .menu-header li,
#access2 .menu-header li,
#access3 .menu-header li,
div.menu li {
float: left;
padding: 0;
position: relative;
Then find:
#access a, #access2 a, #access3 a {
color: #AAAAAA;
display: block;
line-height: 38px;
text-decoration: none;
and add padding-left: 20px; so its like:
#access a, #access2 a, #access3 a {
color: #AAAAAA;
display: block;
line-height: 38px;
text-decoration: none;
padding-left: 20px; /* or whatever you want the padding to be but it must match the left: above */
Hope I got it.
so, it really is a padding issue? if so I'm sure glad you stopped by! I would have never figured out what you just did, good show!
Nailed it. Thanks to both of you!
that and absolute positioning!
no worries!
are you using/familiar with in-browser develper tools like Mozilla Firebug? If not I'd check it out!
I used it for this issue so obviously it won't help with everything you do (It really ultimately depends on your knowledge of css) , but it will certainly make many things much easier for you.
nope never heard of it. I'm new to this stuff. thanks!

"Oh I got this……..whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat, Oh come on!"
The new Com Truise EP "Wave 1" is out today, stream it above.
Wave 1 is the first new transmission the world has received from producer Seth Haley since his gloriously futuristic debut album Galactic Melt. That album cataloged the genesis and evolution of Haley's alter ego Com Truise — the world's first synthetic/robotic astronaut, as Haley described him — and this EP continues the character's journey into the outer reaches of the musical multiverse. In the process, it also builds on Haley's signature production style, one that's rooted in classic sci-fi sounds and analogue textures but nevertheless manages to sound utterly contemporary.

Disclosure: I wouldn't usually post this video but the color treatment and the vintage knick knacks make it.
I'm following up last weeks post with one more series that I really like. In the late 60's and early 70's sci-fi author James Blish got commissioned to write a series of books that contained short story adaptations of the TV show. He started on volume one and made it all the way to twelve before he passed away, his run with writing this series was eight years long. Each book had a volume number and contained around ten short stories. Over the course of these twelve books there were many different artists that worked on the cover illustrations but the text treatments for the most part remained the same. How can you not love those big volume numbers on the cover, so good. I posted a few of my favorites from the series above but I encourage everyone to seek out the other covers and post personal favorites in the comments below.
My favorite would have to be volume six. This volume along with numbers four and eight (also favorites) were illustrated by Lou Feck. One reason I love Lou Feck is that his work is very easily recognizable when you are flipping rapidly through the paper back bins at your local used book store, high contrast and very dramatic. I am planning on doing a whole post dedicated to Lou, he is one of my favorite sci-fi cover illustrators and there are many other great ones outside of his work on this Star Trek series.
Number five was done by Mitchell Hooks, and I have to admit I didn't know much about him before this post. When I went searching for more sci-fi work of his I really couldn't find anything that came close to this one in terms of subject matter and style. A lot of his work seemed to be for mystery/thriller books and also some magazine cover work. Although much of his other work doesn't quite fall under the sci-fi category I felt this image fits in well here so I included it. I hope you guys are enjoying this series.
A quick thanks to @jakekouba on instagram for tagging a few of these Star Trek covers a week or so back. Keep the #sundayscifi tags coming!

We finally get a peak in on the AIRA series from Roland. This less than 5 minute video from NAMM 2014 shows all these beautiful new toys (TR-8, VT-3, TB-3, System-1) playing well together. One thing I wish for 2014 is no more beat repeat or scatter or whatever you want to call it, i'm done hearing from laptop performers.
The hypnotic manner of where this Marcellis song goes, made me obsess over it right away. I might never spin a set without it.
Some sort of juked out motown from Traxman, its like what Bullion might have ended up doing if he just kept it simple and sample based.
I think I heard this song in a Falty DL set, maybe Shazam lied to me and its not right but once I looked up the result I found this Doc Daneeka cut. Might edit it down and cut out the vocal break, its not my thing personally.

Using a long sharp knife, remove 2 or 3 rows of kernels. Turn the cob so it sits flat side down. Continue cutting rows several at a time until all the corn is removed. Each ear yields about 1 cup of kernels. Get Today's Headlines from the Globe in your inbox: Privacy Policy Please enter a valid email address Thank you for subscribing to Today's Headlines!

HI girls just wanted to know if anyone else is in the same boat. This is my second baby, first one is 14 months old, and I am sooooo sick with this little bean. I was a little bit sick with Number 1 but this one is kicking my behind. I feel like my head is spinning and im so sick with everything I eat, I also have heartburn from everything including water. I'm 7 weeks along and I hope this is going to end soon. Anyone else??
So Sick! 2nd pregnancy so much different
Yes. This is my third pregnancy, and by far the worst when it comes to sickness. I'm taking Zofran twice a day, which slighly takes away the nausea and allows me to be a semi-functional mama to my other 2 kids! I keep hoping it gets better. I really have no adivce, but if you're super sick, ask your doctor about Zofran. I was against taking any medication, but this is super safe and helps take the edge of.

Baby #3 EDD 2/4/13
mommy to Levi born 7.2.10. babies in heaven 2.16.12 (10 w) & 5.21.12 (4w4d). mommy to Nolan born 2.1.13. #3 due 11.19.14.
thanks for the advice, I can't believe this. I am so active and all I want to do is lay down in the fetal position. I feel like I have the worst case of vertigo.
Yeah my second was awful. I found out I was pregnant cause I woke up and I had to hug the toilet. Omg that prepared me for my pregnancy. I lost so much weight. I was so shocked cause my first was super easy. Now I am preggo again. It is in between my first and second. So it is not as good as my first but it is not as bad as my second.
Did it get better for you girls in the second trimester or was it like this the whole time?
I was SOOOO sick with my first until about 18ish weeks and then I felt a little sick until 24ish ( I think, I can't remember) weeks. I'm not as sick I was with my first but not feeling great either. I hope it doesn't last as long this time around. We will see.
Thank goodness my husband was home this past week and watching our first because I have been sleeping the entire time - it is the only thing that stops the 24/7 nausea and migraine. I can't even swallow my prenatals. He read that pepsi helps with the headaches - which it does, but I have to keep drinking it - Im not crazy aout it though because I don't usually drink soda. I feel a little better since yesterday and crossing my fingers that it doesnt come back full force. I'll be 8 weeks tomorrow. I didnt experience this with my first :/

Welcome to the home of ASL in the UK
ASL (Advanced Squad Leader) is a detailed wargame of tactical level World War II combat published by MMP. If you have never played it, this PDF contains enough material to introduce you to the basics of infantry combat.
View From The Trenches is Britain's Premier ASL Journal, having first appeared as a four page bi-monthly newsletter in March 1995. Within three years it had expanded to it's current 20 page format. Unfortunately a lack of material saw the frequency drop from bi-monthly to quad-monthly in 2006 :-( Along the way there have also been a number of special editions and scenario packs.
This web site contains PDF versions of all issues published to date - they're free but that doesn't mean I won't accept any money if you want to send me some :-) . Click here to go to the index.
This site also includes information on the three UK ASL tournaments held each year, links to a number of related ASL sites and resources of some use to ASLers, as well as some material never published in VFTT.

Reviews for Epilepsy Services Foundation, Inc.
I have worked with ESF since 2012 as hospital liaison between families with children who are diagnosed with epilepsy and volunteer/mentors who represent the HOPE program. I have attended educational in service programs and social activities as well, and continue to be impressed with the community outreach ESF provides. It continues to be a privilege and a pleasure to work with this great organization.
I cannot speak highly enough about this organization and the services its Board, Executive Director, volunteers, and supporters provide for the community and, particularly, persons effected by epilepsy and their loved ones. ESF's dedication to educating and growing awareness in the community about the challenges of epilepsy is unmatched. The love and outreach ESF's members give to individuals who deal with epilepsy, and the support shown to their families, is constant. ESF's programs and fundraising activities have bettered so many lives. I am a former board member and volunteer, and now just a fan. I feel blessed and grateful to have been involved in such a laudable non-profit organization.
1 person found this review helpful
I have never worked with a more caring and dedicated group of people who desire only to help individuals affected by epilepsy, whether directly or indirectly through their loved ones. My participation with ESF began by virtue of the fact that my employer, Fowler White Boggs P.A., has been a long time sponsor and supporter of this organization. However, even if I did not have professional ties to ESF, I would gladly volunteer to assist this non-profit, which is comprised of giving and selfless individuals who make this world a better place on a daily basis. Unlike well-known national non-profit organizations, ESF is striving to expand through grass root connections and local/regional awareness with the ultimate goal of providing a wider range of support, assistance, and educational services. In my brief time volunteering with ESF, I have seen the efforts of its volunteers deeply touch the lives of children and adults who are affected one way or the other by epilepsy. Dedicating my time to this organization has been nothing but a pleasure. Please support our cause!
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
the faces of children who can finally go to summer camp with their peers in a safe, friendly and fun environment.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
the friends I have made and the reminder that there is so much good in this world working behind the scenes.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
absolutely fabulous.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
bring greater awareness regarding an affliction that affects millions of Americans but which is misunderstood, often misdiagnosed and regularly stigmatized.
Ways to make it better...
I had more money and time to give.
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
assisting as many people as possible in the face of insufficient heath care and medical assistance.
One thing I'd also say is that...
When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
This is a fantastic organization that serves to raise awareness about epilepsy, assist those affected by epilepsy, and simply rallies the entire community together. All the members in this association are so passionate for this cause, it's inspiring! Great work, keep it up!
-Matt C.
It was a great experience. Everyone seemed really happy to be there, the ceremony didn't take up much time, and along with the scholarships, the epilepsy services foundation even payed for our dinners. Several people showed up dressed professionally. I don't have any complaints. It was a great ceremony.
This is a great organization that has helped our son with epilepsy in so many ways over the years. When he was a young child, they took him to Lightning and Bucs games, they sponsored him to go to summer camp and family weekends at Boggy Creek. This year he will be attending college, and he was awarded a scholarship through ESF.
Growing up with a brother who has been diagnosed with Epilepsy for the last 18 years, I have come to know Tom Orth and the work that they do at the Epilepsy Service Foundation. They have helped so many children, teens, and young adults strive. The Epilepsy Service Foundation portrays a positive impact by promoting awareness through newsletters and Easter day 1mile and 5Ks runs. My brother has gone to Camp Boggy Creek, where families don't have to worry about leaving their kids because there is an around the clock care for them. In addition, it allowed my brother to be around kids with a similar diagnosis, so he was able to interact with others without judgment. Tom Orth has made a positive impact to those not only diagnosed with Epilepsy, but also their families. Recently, I was awarded a Beacon of Hope Scholarship to use towards College in order to become a Doctor. Tom Orth and the Volunteers at the Epilepsy Service Foundation have made a lasting impact on my family's life.
The Epilepsy Services Foundation is one that truly loves and works for epileptics and their families everywhere. They sacrifice on a consistent basis so that people like myself, who has been diagnosed with epilepsy for the past 17 years, can have a chance at a normal life. Most recently, I was awarded a $250 scholarship. Being someone who lives on a fixed income with one child and one on the way, this not only makes a difference for me, but also for all the people I intend to help as a future physician's assistant. Epilepsy is still so very unaware among he public and therefore does not see the same donations that other charities see, but they are more than deserving. Please do all you can to help.
ESF is a fantastic service organization. Their work, scholarships, social events, counseling and friendship has given my son with epilepsy newfound hope, friendship, and education. They are a bright spot in an otherwise traumatic experience. Keep up the good work.
Daniel Roberts, Wimauma, FL.
ESF is truly a great organization, and I'm proud to be involved. The volunteers are passionate about their work, and Tom Orth is an all-star in running the organization. We have great projects, such as sending kids with epilepsy to Camp Boggy Creek and organizing meet-and-greets for those affected by epilepsy. ESF has not only raised awareness of epilepsy, but improved the lives of those who suffer with it. It doesn't hurt either that we have really fun fundraising events (I'm partial to the annual golf tournament and beer tasting events). I can't speak highly enough of ESF.
I was referred to esf by another parent and I am so happy with the resource. I explained my son, 23, needed to find a support group. He said he knew there was a need and a year later, we have a group of 12 that keeps growing. We have met so many wonderful, supportive people through esf!

The Adoption Journey Conference is hosted by County Line Church of God and provided for the Northeast Indiana region. Our goal is for this conference to be a resource event for the increasing number of families living in Northeast Indiana who are thinking about adoption, are in the adoption process, or have adopted. We have intentionally chosen our name and logo to reflect the experience of families going through an adoption.
What's in a name?
From the beginning to the end of life, adoption is a journey that is filled with ups and downs, sharp turns, and smooth roads. This rings true for the parentsadopting and the orphans who are being adopted.
A picture says a thousand words…
The path reflects the journey that parents, families, and orphans travel down.
The mountains represent the highs and lows that families experience throughout the adoption process. The highs can be filled with joy, while the valleys can be full of disappointment.
The cross represents the one act that opened the doors for all of humanity to be adopted into the family of God.
The color scheme (red, yellow, black, and white) is a reminder of God's love for all of humanity, in particular "the little children of the world."

Jody Stayer
Course description: The Core Issues of Adoption all revolve around loss. Without loss, there would be no adoption. Adoption should be celebrated, but consideration should also be given to the issues that will be faced by the adoption triad (adoptee, adoptive parents, and birthparent). These issues are loss, grief, rejection, shame/guilt, identity, intimacy, and mastery/control. During this session, the issues will be defined and examples given. Adoptive parents, pre-adoptive parents, and foster parents will be encouraged to reframe their childrens' behaviors as they understand how the core issues of adoption are behind them, therefore better understanding their child and themselves as they begin or continue on the adoption journey.

And though he stands just one win away from claiming the Lonsdale belt outright, the Welsh scrapper has never fought in his home city of Cardiff until now.
Rumney-born Buckland can't wait to hear the first bell at the Motorpoint Arena on August 17:
"I've boxed in Newport but I've always wanted to box in Cardiff and now I've got my opportunity," Buckland told Phil Blanche of Wales Online.
"I'm chief support and with 5,000 people there that's going to be good recognition for me. Put on a good show and people will want to come to my fights if I'm topping the bill."
Buckland stopped Stephen Foster Jr in his second title defence in November, but TV exposure has been a problem for the Hatton promotions fighter.
His challenge to Fernando David Saucedo for the vacant WBC Silver title in Buenos Aires in April was called off when fans stormed the ring.

I have leaflet maps marker plugin installed on a site and have created several plotted maps. I'd like to use these exact maps on another site. so is there a way to export/download then import/upload to make this happen?
I have leaflet maps marker plugin installed on a site and have created several plotted maps. I'd like to use these exact maps on another site. so is there a way to export/download then import/upload to make this happen?
import/export of current markers is only possible directly in the database (via phpmyadmin for example). Login into phpmyadmin and export the following tables:
- wp_leafletmapsmarkers_markers
- wp_leafletmapsmarkers_layers
Then login into phpmyadmin on the new site and reimport those two tables. A tutorial for this is still on my 2do-list, unfortunately I didnt have the time yet.
PS: As I give support for free, I´d appreciate a review on http://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/leaflet-maps-marker ;-)
But what I can do to show the same maps on all my site in multisite WP installation, or for example [mapsmarker layer="1"] (one layer map) on 1st site and [mapsmarker layer="4"] (all layer map) on 2nd site.
1st site is on domain '1' 2nd site is on domain '2', both domains are served by one multisite WP.
Now I can show they properly on 1st site only. On the 2nd site layers are empty.
p.s. sorry - my english is not so good. ;-)
if you install my plugin on a multisite installation, an instance of the plugin is created for all subblogs. So in your case you have to identify the table prefixes for subblogs, export the data from subblogs1 (eg wp1_leafletmapsmarker_markers + _layers) and reimport them in the tables of subblog 2 (eg wp2_leafletmapsmarker_markers + _layers).
it's not so easy. Leaflet Maps Marker is installed and turn on in WP net for all domains. I don't wont to have 2 copies of layers on two domains. I want to use one copy of maps (layers, markers) on all domains served by one installation of WP.
Is it possible to do?
it is currently not possible to use maps created in one subblog in another subblog. Each subblog has its own tables which are separated.
so it is new idea for you, to use it in new version of Leaflet Maps Marker. ;-)))
Look multisite WP use only one MySQL base to serve all sites on all domains, I think is not a problem to use one table to create all maps on all sites, on all domains.
not quite - if you look at a WP multisite installation, you see that each blog has its own tables within one database - they are separated by different prefixes (eg wp_1_leafletmapsmarker_markers, wp_2_leafletmapsmarker_markers...).
I'm not a PHP programmer, but I think your plugin ask the date from MySQL tables. Your program creates SQL questions, defined names of tables. I don't know what to do it (I'm PHP programmer) but I think that it could be possible ;-))
maybe in settings you can put lines:
[choose marker table]
[choose layer table]
and if for different domains lines are the same than maps are the same.
It's good idea?
thanks for the suggestion, but believe me, it is a bit more complicated like that ;-)
But what with:
could you be so kind to help me?

Club working on trail bridge
BOLTON The Green Mountain Club is working on a new route for the Long Trail, the long-distance hiking trail.
The route would be in Bolton.
The club is issuing a challenge to raise $50,000 for a footbridge crossing the Winooski River.
Its already raised more than $500,000.
The club says an anonymous donor has agreed to match every donation up to the $50,000 through the end of August.
The club has sought to establish a safe, appropriate and permanent route for the Long Trail over the Winooski River in Bolton since 1912, when it established the first stretch of the trail from Mount Mansfield to the river.
The club expects to break ground by June.
The trail now crosses the Winooski River on a road bridge.MORE IN This Just InBARRE A Waterbury man has been sentenced on several crimes including hitting someone in the... Full StoryWe want folks to take advantage of it. Full StoryPlainfield man

Thankfully, the anti-science propaganda campaign surrounding man-made climate change seems to have lost some of its effect.
Are you seeing storm clouds on the horizon? Two recent studies suggest that the latest anti-science campaign is following its forerunners--the propaganda campaigns attempting to refute science that tobacco causes cancer, that CFC's caused the hole in the ozone layer, and so on—into oblivion. Global warming denial seems to have climbed to a peak in 2010, and global warming acceptance is now climbing. This bodes well for rational public policy.

You know the scientific proof of climate change is out there and mans role in it.
But you can't believe any of it because you are letting politics dictate the truth for you.
Do yourself a favor and look at where the source of your position on climate change originates.
There is a huge amount of money flowing into groups whose sole purpose is to sow doubt about the issue.
Also look at the media you consume.
A fine example is the pipeline that burst in Arkansas. Certain media outlets didn't even make mention of it.
You speak of people having agendas. What if you position on an important issue is the result of an agenda.
I ask the same of my own beliefs. But I dont take all the positions that come up around this issue and what to do about it.
I get the feeling you know very little of the science surrounding mans influence on the climate. If you actually looked at it honestly I doubt you'd be saying what you are.

Tinfoilhat, not only do those hypocrites who try to force us to go green still use AC in their home, AL and obama continue to jet around the world for pleasure. Hypocrites. I work at conserving energy.
Jets , big cars, and big spending are their MO. What a joke.
Posted 1263 days ago.
Bolo points out an honest truth about green energy. In some cases its just not ready and wont be for quite some time. Or there are other issues that need working out.
None of its really green to be even more honest.
The only upside is that they represent a shift to forms of energy that aren't finite in their availability.
Posted 1263 days ago.
If not then step aside and allow continued development of alternatives.
Thats not how it works?
Well then wanting alternatives and continuing to use dirtier energy because of a lack of alternatives and being construed as a form of hypocrisy isn't how it works for those who champion cleaner energy.
Posted 1264 days ago.
Pointing that out does nothing. People need energy. People want to see energy become cleaner. That cant happen with people and corporations standing in the way of that happening.
Nonrenewable energy is becoming more volatile in availability and cost. That along with the pollution it causes and environmental degradation makes people want alternatives.
There is nothing wrong with wanting alternatives.
The real question is why do people vehemently oppose developing and bringing online cleaner energy sources?
Hows about this. We keep and exploit all the fossil fuels we have until they are gone. During this period those who champion those energy sources pick up the tab and pay all the costs associated with said sources.
If those people want us to stay on those forms of energy then I think it fair they pay for it.

Well we all know that people are more than willing to interpret the word of god as they see fit. And to flat out ignore parts that contradict a position they hold.
Lots of people speak fondly of god but their hearts are in a totally different place.
I think the political angle is one of the bigger ones. A part of that could be attributed to the fact that some rightwingers will absolutely deny anything they feel is coming from the left. They can also assign that "leftist" label to it and it frees them up from critical thinking.
But there also another angle. The fear factor of the whole thing. People fear change. And to deal with climate change big big changes would have to be made to how we deal with carbon emissions. I'll add that people could also be afraid that we may have done severe damage to our planet and the repercussions kick in the old ostrich putting its head in the hole routine.
Posted 1264 days ago.
Now the argument that man is to "work" or "till" the Earth applies to pollution in general. What about anthropogenic carbon dioxide in particular?
The negative effects of climate change do not affect people equally, and harming others is not Christian.
The whole law is summed up as, "to love the Lord with all your might and your neighbor as yourself." And the "whole duty…of man is to do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God."
Climate change harms some people more than others. This fact drives a lot of the POLITICAL denial—it is seen as a "wealth distribution" scheme because solutions involve people in northern climates giving up some of their advantage. However, using more fossil fuels and thereby causing others to suffer is not "loving your neighbor as yourself." It is not "doing justly (or) loving mercy."
I see a Christian argument for, not against, accepting climate science. So I still don't get the religious reasons for denial.
Posted 1264 days ago.
Myth listed two possible religious reasons why someone would doubt the science of global climate change.
1. We needn't concern ourselves because God will "remake this world (and) take care of it"
2. "man cant effect our world because only god has the power to do so."
Actually, both questions have the same answer: God gave mankind dominion, or power, over the earth, but not without conditions.
Genesis 2:15 says, "And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it." The NIV translates this, "to work it and take care of it."
And these instructions didn't only apply to Eden. Gen. 3:23 says, "God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken."
So man was charged with keeping the earth productive, not to destroy it. And when God does restore the Earth, one thing he will do is "destroy those who destroy the earth." (Rev. 11:18)

Worldwide, the situation isn't totally hopeless: China is talking about a carbon tax, & tinkering w/ local cap-and-trade. Would be ironic if China adopted a carbon tax before the U.S. Even a small tax would have an effect.
China was already installing more renewable energy than any other country. Although their energy demand has grown so fast, the renewables seem small.

I think Myth's list of the religious factors is about right.
I just looked up James G. Watt, Reagan's 1st Sec. of Interior. Surprised to find that Wikipedia's article doesn't portray him quite as extreme as I remember, but the reporting back then may have oversimplified.

Now, a derecho can be influencial. I can say that I took steps to allow myself to be independent from the grid as the situation may unfold.time waits on no man, huh!?
Posted 1265 days ago.
It doesn't matter if people believe in it anyway. Its going to to world wide cooperation to limit its effects. If that can be done at all at this point in time.
I think the more prudent thing to do is to make plans for a changing climate and what that will mean in terms of food and water concerns plus energy issues also.
Climate change deniers and their thoughts dont matter. All its doing is slitting their own throats and everyone else's along with them. Because no action is being taken on any contingencies.
They will see the effects soon enough though as climate and weather pattern disruption increase.
I'm looking for more derechos to rear their ugly heads again this year. Might be a new seasonal norm coming down the works if you will.
Posted 1266 days ago.
It might come down to the idea that God will remake this world after the end times. You know a new heaven and earth and all that.
It would also include the ideology that this world is here for us to exploit ergo we should harvest what it has with out concern because god will take care of it.
Also the idea that man cant effect our world because only god has the power to do so.

In the last post, I forgot to include a quotation mark at the beginning of the quote. It should be,
"Among the shrinking percentage of Americans who doubt..."
Posted 1266 days ago.
The Michigan-Muhlenberg study included this interesting tidbit:
Among the shrinking percentage of Americans who doubt global warming's existence, there appears to be both a decreased impact of personal experiences on their views on this subject and an increased prominence for personal religious and political factors in the determination of their doubts."
I can certainly understand "political factors." If you like or admire someone like Senator James Inhofe from Oklahoma, you would probably be more willing to accept his extreme anti-science viewpoint.
But "personal religious factors"? What's up with that?
Posted 1266 days ago.
Last fall, the National Surveys on Energy and Environment from the Center for Local, State, and Urban Policy at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy at the University of Michigan and the Institute of Public Opinion at Muhlenberg College reported,
"An increasing number of Americans indicate that there is evidence of global warming, with over two out of three individuals in the United States now expressing a belief that the planet has warmed over the past four decades."
Furthermore, "For the first time since Fall 2008, a majority (51%) of self-identified Republicans stated that they think global warming is occurring, as of late Fall 2012."
And, "More Americans than at any time since 2008 attribute increasing global temperatures entirely to the activities of man."

So after a couple of months I was having an adverse effect, I called to cancell. I was told that I had to use the product for one full year to get the money back guarantee. I did not like this, but I wanted to get my money. I quit using but I kept receiving the shipments. One full year later I called to get my money.
With on that one year they changed (?) ownership....
At anyrate they informed me the money back guarantee was not in effect for me, It started in September and I started in July.
I won't boar you with details of COUNTLESS calls with rude personnel, the same stone story....then one day I got to a manager of a manager...Karkeena who told me I would get my full $420.00 back and she would send me free samples of other products. She told me my refund would be automatic and I told her I did not trust that what proof do I have. She stated that the phone calls were recorded and that they were kept for one year. My money would come.
I got the free product and no money.
I called back and got the same old run around I was even told (when I threatened with the BBB and a lawsuit) "I would not have a leg to stand on with whatever I did" "and that it did not even matter to him because he wrote the legal eze on the warrenty lititure"
I managed to get part of my money back after consulting a lawyer, who mentioned bankruptcy possibilities.
Even though I got SOME of my money back (don't look a gift horse) I still feel duped...It just is not right that we the people can't justice, or even ourt money back!!!!
I was afraid to take the money.. I feel it was maybe a bribe? Now I can't sue because I took a settlement?
But 1/2 my money was better than a class action suite where you get maybe .05 cents on the dollar. How fare is that??? .05 cents on the dollar. It makes me think who is worse, them or the lawyers?????
I honest feel for everyone who was duped into this company and actually feel somewhat lucky. I only paid $35.00, some are paying $75.00 per month. Still $400.00+ is a lesson learned.
I could go on....but I think you might not want me to.
Good luck to all.

UK: Warburtons appoints Nestle's Simester as marketing director
By Katy Askew | 23 July 2012
- Mark Simester appointed marketing director
- Replaces Richard Hayes
Warburtons names ex-Nestle exec new marketing director
UK baker Warburtons has appointed Nestle UK's head of chocolate, Mark Simester, to the post of marketing director.
Simester will join Warburtons in October, replacing Richard Hayes who left in January.
Simester is well-placed to continue to develop the Warburtons brand, having overseen Nestle UK's chocolate business for the past two years. Prior to this, Simester was responsible for Nestle's marketing of brands including Kit Kat and Aero as well as the Polo mints range.
Mark Simester joins the Warburtons family
Leading bakery brand appoints new Marketing Director
Warburtons, the UK's leading bakery brand and second biggest grocery brand, has appointed Mark Simester to the role of Marketing Director, to join the company from early October 2012.
Mark will oversee the Marketing and Product Innovations teams to help maintain the company's position as category leader and continue to drive forward the business's continued commitment to long-term growth.
His role will focus on the further development of the brand's proposition to ensure continued relevance for the British consumer, as well as continue to drive best-in-class innovation and new product development.
Mark says: "I'm delighted to be joining the Warburtons family at such an exciting time. Warburtons is an iconic household brand, famous for its high quality products and customer service. My priority will be to continue to drive the Warburtons brand forward, increase its relevance with consumers and further develop its offering."
Prior to taking up his new role, Mark worked for Nestlé where he was Head of The Chocolate Business in the UK & Ireland. Since joining Nestlé in 1994, Mark has worked in a variety of management roles across Consumer Marketing, Sales, and Category Marketing, and has managed brands such as Kit Kat, Aero, Yorkie, Smarties, Milkybar, Rolo, Toffee Crisp and Polo. Most recently he has been leading a 16 strong multi-functional Chocolate Business Unit team at Nestlé where he has responsibility for the company's chocolate portfolio worth £400m sales per annum.
Jonathan Warburton, Warburtons Chairman and Chief Executive says: "This is a fantastic time to be joining Warburtons as we strive to become one of the world's best family food businesses and we're delighted to welcome Mark into our team.
Mark has a solid track record working with top brands, so the wealth of experience Mark has to offer will be a great asset to the business as we continue to strengthen our consumer offering."
Warburtons is the UK's leading bakery brand and second biggest grocery brand in the country. Its product range includes the best-selling Warburtons 800g Toastie, the 800g Soft Farmhouse and 800g Wholemeal. As the company continues to grow its core UK Bakery repertoire by expanding its Sandwich Alternative offering with the launch of its brown and seeded varieties of Square-ish Wraps, Sandwich Thins and Pittas, it has also successfully entered into new markets with its range of Baked Pitta Chip snacks, Gluten-Free and Wheat Free bread, rolls and sweet muffins and has also started exporting to France and Central Europe.

Skill Level Beginner
Some elements of the main Cinema 4D application there're missing from Cinema 4D light, but often you can write a script to take place of that missing feature. And that's what we're going to do here. We're going to write a script which will reset the position values of an object. (INAUDIBLE) chart seven or two C4D and if you want to follow along, you can open at. Here i have my main robot and he consists of various different body parts linked together using a (INAUDIBLE) And we also have a relief object in here and you'll notice that if i select the hips and move them, the relief object isn't moving with them because its a separate item.
Also, I don't really want to have to select the hips to move the body around. I want the controller for the hips, and all the different body parts, and also the relief object. So, I'm going to create a new Null, and I'm going to call it main robot. And that's going to be the controller for this robot. So, we'll call it main robot. So, one way of picking up the position of the hips, this position here, is to actually drag the main robot now on to the hips. And you'll notice that when I do that, it picks up the position of the hips, but you may be surprised to see that it hasn't appeared up here.
Plus because its still maintaining a relative position, what we want to do is have it take an absolute position value from the hips and in order to do that, what we need to do is to 000 the position values, okay. So, I type in 000 and we can see now, the null is in exactly the same place as the hips. So you can see exactly in the same place. There's a difference in rotation there, because we haven't linked the rotation.
But the position is exactly the same. We could do the same with rotation if we wanted to. So basically, now I have my null in the right place. I can move it where I want, and reposition all the other elements. And I'll show you how to do that in a second. But before we do that, what I want to do is show you how we can save what we've just done as a script. Now we've just reset the 0, 0, 0 position. So all I need to do is right click, go to expressions, create script. And it remembers what I've just done.
And you can see there, it's resetting the base object to 0, 0, 0. So, I can just type in Reset Position. So I've created my own script. Now you can actually create buttons for the script. You can create short-cuts for the script as well if you want to add a short-cut to control that script, you can do. If you've created your own custom artwork, you can also use that here instead of using this default max on icon.
I'm just going to go with the Default max on icon and I'm going to drag it up to my toolbar and place it in there. And now I have a button which activates a script to reset those position values, so I'm going to close it and now if I select any object. And then click on that button, it resets it back to 0. Okay, so any object I want Click on that button resets it to 0. So we've now got a way to getting things back to the 0, 0, 0 position, using this Reset Position button.
So, really easy to create scripts. You just do what you want it to do. And then create a script for it. And it writes it for you. Couldn't be easier. Okay so now I've got that null. What I can do is I can take that null, place it back at the top of the stack so it's not related to anything. And now I can select the hips. And the relief. Drag them both to the Main Robot null. And I now have a single controller for my robot and my relief object.
So I can start to move him around. Animate him spinning. Doing whatever I want him to do. Scaling if I want him to. So that's our easy way of getting your null to take the attributes of the parent object. And write a script that will do it for you automatically.
