My gauge was off but rather than change yarn or needles I just kept going and removed rows from the pattern. So the proportions are a bit off but they are cozy and I like them. I have a lot more confidence with colorwork now.

Here's the problem. I can get the network setup to appear but when I do step 2, (add the following to the wp-config file) there is no mention of "that's all stop editing etc....
I've pasted it in there anyway and although the site doesn't crash, it redirects me to 127.0.0.1 and I cannot access the site. Removing the code makes everything OK but no ability to get past the network setup menu.
I used turnkey linux WordPress edition and it's residing on a virtual machine.
Even if I can keep the website working by having the code in a different place, I still see the network settings menu. It does say at the top there is already a network present.
I just don't know how to get past the network setup step.

|"Action Comics" #875 on sale now
SPOILER WARNING: The following contains spoilers for "Action Comics" #875.
Writing âAction Comicsâ â the DC Comics title synonymous with the most iconic superhero in the history of superheroes â is no easy task.
But try writing it without Superman!.
Greg Rucka calls the scenario a Gordian knot. And yet, the fan favorite writer kicked off his run on âAction Comicsâ this month with a high-octane adventure featuring Nightwing and Flamebird as the new defenders of Metropolis and never missed a beat.
On sale now, âAction Comicsâ #875 revealed the DC Universeâs newest superheroes as the alter egos of Chris Kent and Thara Ak-Var. Chris, a.k.a. Lor-Zod, is the son of General Zod and Ursa, and was first introduced in âAction Comicsâ #844, by Geoff Johns & Richard Donner and Adam Kubert in 2006. Thara Ak-Var was the Chief of Security on Kandor and now New Krypton, and is childhood friend of Kara Zor-El, a.k.a. Supergirl.
CBR News checked in with Rucka to find out what makes Nightwing and Flamebird think they can fill the big red boots of the Man of Steel while heâs off-world, and what else we can expect from a World Without Superman in the pages of âWorld of New Krypton,â which Rucka is co-writing with James Robinson.
CBR: Last time we spoke, you said weâd find out who Nightwing and Flamebird were right away, and there Chris and Thara were, chatting in the Fortress of Solitude midway through your first issue, âAction Comicsâ #875. You werenât lying.
Greg Rucka: Their real names are Lor-Zod and Thara Ak-Var.
Right, of course, sorry. Lor-Zod and Thara Ak-Var. So now that theyâre out there, what can you tell us about them?
|"Action Comics" #12 on sale in June
No, no, no, no, no. Thatâs the annual [laughs]. âAction Comics Annualâ #12 is where you find their back-story. We know about Chris, but the immediate question is, âWait a second. Last time we saw him, he was six. What is this? Soap opera aging or what?â And no, itâs not soap opera aging. Itâs comic book aging. Thereâs a reason for it. And as seen at the start of the issue, heâs roughly 15 or 16. And clearly, heâs been that age long enough to be zipping around as Nightwing. At the end of the issue, he suffers from what we are referring to as âburst aging.â And he goes from 16 to, well, his body accelerates about seven years, which is an exceptionally draining and painful process.
The thing that people have to remember about Chris is that he is the only Kryptonian who isnât native Kryptonian -- as far as we know. He is actually native to the Phantom Zone. He was conceived and born in Fort Rozz in the Phantom Zone. So you take that and add a yellow sun, youâre going to get some screwed up DNA [laughs]. So, Chris has a problem. Right now, itâs very convenient. Twenty-three is a very functional age.
That begs another question for readers: Okay, great, his body is 23. But why is his brain not 6?
That will be answered. There is an explanation for all of this. You may not like the explanation, I canât speak to that, but there is an explanation. And the explanation is forthcoming in âAction Comicsâ and then we go into far greater detail in âAction Comics Annual.â The annual actually covers a number of things. It covers the start of Tharaâs journey in Kandor. It actually explains a little more of Ursaâs backstory. It picks up for Chris when re-enters the Phantom Zone at the end of âSuperman: Last Son.â And you see how Thara and Chris came together. You see why they take on the Flamebird and Nightwing identities. You see the genesis of their relationship.
I guess writing Chris as a six-year-old would be a difficult storyline to carry. Have you written a child before in one of your comics or novels?
I have and I also have to young children. Itâs a hard age to write well. And then on top of that you add in all of the superhero stuff, and what you end up with is a precocious Franklin Richards. And thatâs not to bash Franklin Richards, but hey, thatâs been done by the other company.
|"Action Comics" #876 and "Superman: World of New Krypton" #2 on sale in April
And frankly, when this was handed to me, he already 16. More to the point, youâve got to understand when I was brought in, there was a Flamebird and a Nightwing. And there were ideas that Geoff [Johns] and James [Robinson] had about who they were. A lot of what Nightwing was, Geoff had set up because he told me who they are. And I said, âHow? What? Why?â And he said, âNyuh.â It was like, âGot get âem, tiger!â It really was.
We talked about this before, me being offered the book and the conversation I had with Geoff where he said something, and I was like, âOkay. Iâve got it. Now I can do this.â The thing that I havenât talked about is the part where every single conversation we had until that part I was like, âAre you kidding me? No way in hell am I doing this. It is unworkable. You guys are handing me a Gordian knot and youâre not giving me the knife. I canât cut this.â And then of course, he hit me with this other thing and Iâm like, âYou bastard. Thatâs too good. Now I want to do it. How am I going to figure it out?â And that took a lot of time and a lot of conversations with James and Geoff and [âSupergirlâ writer] Sterling [Gates] and Matt Idelson and Wil Moss and Liz Gehrlein and Sean Ryan and everybody in the editorial staff.
There was a document that I kept reworking and reworking. And I kept sending it around and saying, âWill this work? Will this work?â And even now, I canât guarantee it will work because this is a fairly sticky continuity situation. I am doing the absolute best I can to respect the readersâ intelligence. The problem is, there are a lot of them and they are all pretty smart. So the odds of me getting by with a free pass are pretty low. And I acknowledge that and hopefully they will forgive some of liberties I have taken in the face of the better story.
Ttraditionally, you are known as a guy who writes street-smart characters working in the underbelly of the DCU. Now you are writing this big, massive sci-fi storyline with âAction Comicsâ and âWorld of New Kryptonâ with James Robinson. Are you having fun?
|"Action Comics" #877 and "Superman: World of New Krypton" #3 on sale in May
Sure. Itâs fun to play in a whole new zone. One of things that is so cool about writing âWorld of New Kryptonâ is that James and I will have a conversation and weâll go, âThis leads to this which leads to this which leads to this, culturally.â And then we will realize thatâs all in good but there is no design for it. Thereâs nothing. We donât know what the baseline, state-of-the-art infantry weapon was for Krypton prior to the abduction of Kandor. So we write a script going, âThis is what we think it isâ and we hand it to Pete Woods and 30 seconds late, Pete is back with like, âHere we go. Iâve done eight designs.â And weâre like, âThat is so cool. That will work. Thatâs good.â So thatâs a hoot and a holler.
And one of things I love about the medium is that you are almost universally working with really talented people, who have really great ideas. And that kind of engagement is energizing.
James, Sterling and I had a great conference call today with editorial, we had a call amongst ourselves yesterday, weâre going to have another one in the next three or four days. And prior to the call yesterday, I talked to James separately and Sterling separately. And the Sterling conversation was like, âOh. Letâs do the âSecret Files.ââ Weâve got this story idea for the âSecret Files.â There are so many ideas and there is so much to work with now, we have to start making decisions. Itâs not a question of what material we are using. The question is how do we make sure we are using the right material from what weâve got? And thatâs a luxury problem. If that makes any sense. Should every writer have this problem?
Youâve been writing them for a few months, so can you tell us if Nightwing and Flamebird have what it takes to follow Superman and headline âAction Comics?â Do they have the chops?
|"Action Comics" #878 and "Superman: World of New Krypton" #4 on sale in June
Itâs not turning around and saying, âOh, âAction Comicsâ now starring Batman.â I recognize it. Do I think they have chops? Yeah. Weâre doing it. And frankly, I think the first issue gave them a really good start. And the second issue doesnât dilly-dally. A lot of time is spent with Ursa kicking the snot out of them.
Do I think it will carry? I like the characters. I think they are compelling. I want to read their stories. Thatâs why Iâm writing them. I hope I do a good enough job that other people will want to, as well.
So you donât see Nightwing and Flamebird as placeholders while Superman is off on New Krypton? This is a launch of two new DCU heroes?
Nothing is created with the idea that one day they will be forgotten. We want them to fly. There are plans. There are long-range plans. And God willing, everything will execute. The hope is when the story, people will be happy for being taken on the ride.

I've done several searches and it doesn't appear anyone else is wanting to do this - or maybe I'm looking in the wrong place.
I'm building a new website with WordPress for our blog and CMS. Currently we have several specific URLs for areas of our website, i.e. http://www.encounterthis.com/band http://www.encounterthis.com/momentum http://www.encounterthis.com/podcast
Basically directories with separate index.html files for different areas of our site to make access and sharing easier.
I'd like to do something similar with our new site (currently testing/building at http://www.encounterthis.com/new2008) where http://www.encounterthis.com/band takes you to the band category or a specific page. Anyone have a workaround or ideas on how to accomplish this other than simply putting a redirect on an index file in the directories?

Banks Brake System - 99-99 1/2 Ford 7.3L
Ask a Question
Banks' supplemental exhaust brake system combines a streamlined, turbo-mount brake housing with large butterfly valve, 4" high-force vacuum actuator and stainless turbine outlet pipe. Driver activates Brake using in-dash switch. All units are factory-calibrated and require no adjustment. Banks Brake provides the ultimate in fail-safe auxiliary braking, saves wear-and-tear on service brakes, and enhances engine power when Brake is not in use.
Typical Exhaust Brake:
- Average brakes produce lower braking power and uneven output
- Increased backpressure in open position robs power from engine
- Adds to turbo heat, wear and tear
- Encourages turbo lag
Banks Brake:
- Banks' engineered design produces higher braking power output
- Reduced backpressure in open position adds 8-10 hp over other brakes (15 or more hp with high-performance exhaust)
- Turbo runs cooler, lasts longer
- Improves turbo response

New party leaders normally enjoy a honeymoon in the polls. It's noticeable for leaders taking over in opposition, on the relatively rare occassion that the party leadership changes hands in government the honeymoon is often remarkable. In the last fifty years there have been three previous occasions when the premiership changed hands between-elections:
- Wilson-Callaghan, 1976. When Harold Wilson announced his resignation in the middle of March the polls were showing a Conservative lead of between two and five points. The polls immediately following Wilson's resignation and during Callaghan's first month in office showed Labour leads of between one and seven points, before returning to a steady Tory lead in May.
- Thatcher-Major, 1990. Margaret Thatcher was famously removed by the Tory party in November 1990. In the month before the leadership election Labour had an average poll lead of thirteen points. In the month immediately following her resignation and replacement by John Major the Conservatives had an average lead of five points, peaking at 11 points. Over the next few months the polls settled down to an average Tory lead of four points or so.
- Blair-Brown, 2007. The Blair-Brown handover was a more drawn out affair: Blair announced his resignation at the start of May 2007, when the Conservatives had a poll lead of around six points, and actually handed over to Gordon Brown at the end of June. Through July and August Brown enjoyed an average Labour lead of around five points, peaking in double-digit leads during the Labour conference at the end of September… and their rapid collapse afterwards. The Conservatives were ahead again by October, and remained so for the rest of the Parliament.
Every mid-term change of Prime Minister has been accompanied by a significant boost in polling figures – in the three historical cases, they've gone from trailing the opposition to a clear polling lead. The boosts have tended to be comparatively short though – Callaghan and Major only enjoyed a month or so before settling down into a new equilibrium, Brown enjoyed a honeymoon that lasted several months, but that was probably because he was seem to have responded well to the Glasgow Airport attack and Summer floods. There's no clear pattern as to where the polls settle after the honeymoon: I suppose it depends very much on the leader. Once the honeymoons had passed the change in leader didn't make that much difference in 1976 and 2007 (in both cases Labour's position absolutely tanked a few months down the line… but for different reasons), in 1990 though there was a long lasting improvement in Tory support.
So to the current polling position. Today's ICM poll has topline figures of CON 43%(+4), LAB 27%(-2), LDEM 8%(-1), UKIP 13(-1) (tabs are here). It follows on from an ICM poll last week showing the Conservatives ten points ahead, a YouGov poll giving the Conservtives an eleven point lead and an Opinium poll giving them a more modest six point lead. All four polls had Labour around or just below 30% and the Conservatives nearer 40%, UKIP down a little from the levels of support they'd been showing before the referendum.
Viewed together it certainly looks like the sort of boost a new Prime Minister normally receives, which is a good reason not to read too much into it. New Prime Ministers receive good poll ratings because they haven't had to annoy too many people yet – the public can project their hopes onto them and convince themselves they really will be different, really will deliver this, that or the other. Before long, however, the shine will come off and they'll have to start making compromises and disappointing people. This is one good reason for Theresa May not to plan for an early election (and the mistake Gordon Brown made in not shutting down such considerations) – the current polls look wonderful for her, but on past timescales they won't necessarily be so rosy in a couple of months time. It's also a crumb of comfort for Labour… though quite a small crumb.
UPDATE: YouGov have fresh voting intention figures that also show a strong lead for the Conservatives, albeit, not quite as big as ICM's. Their topline figures are CON 40%, LAB 28%, LDEM 8%, UKIP 13%, GRN 4%. Tabs are here

"The Toyota Verso offers practicality, reliability and economy. It's not as stylish as some rivals, but it's a thoroughly competent family car."
The Toyota Verso is a seven-seater MPV that puts practicality and usability over style. For drivers after a capable and dependable people carrier, it's a worthy contender against competition like the Mazda 5, Renault Grand Scenic and Ford C-MAX. While the Toyota Verso can be said to be as practical as its rivals, competitors like the Citroen C4 Grand Picasso offer similar space and versatility in a more stylish body.
The Toyota Verso offers a driving experience that echoes its looks: it's an underwhelming car to drive. While the Verso throws up no unpleasant driving characteristics, it's unlikely to be a car you'll take out for a spin for the sheer pleasure of it. In comparison, the Ford C-MAX is a positively enjoyable car to drive, although it doesn't offer seven seats like the Verso does. The Toyota does manage to be a good car to drive around town, though, thanks to its light and easy controls.
Toyota offers the Verso with either a 1.6 or 1.8-litre petrol engine, as well as a 1.6-litre diesel. The diesel is likely to account for most sales, although its performance can best be described as sedate. Still, with running costs a priority these days, the Verso diesel makes a good case for itself. It'll return 62.8mpg while emitting 119g/km of CO2, meaning it's economical to run and cheap to tax. Combine this economy with the fact that the Verso can transport seven people and it's easy to see how the Toyota works as a proposition for cost-conscious families.
The range is made up of five trim levels: Active, Icon, Trend, Trend Plus and Excel, with even the entry-level Active coming with air-conditioning, heated folding door mirrors and a four-speaker radio/CD player with steering-wheel-mounted controls. Our recommendation is a Verso diesel in Icon trim. This provides a reversing camera, Bluetooth phone connection, DAB digital radio and Toyota's Touch2 multimedia system.
Toyota is offering a discount if you order before 31 March 2016. Choose your Verso in the entry-level Active trim, pay for it through Toyota's finance arm and you'll get over £1,000 off the list price, making the Verso excellent value at just £16,995. This is around £4,000 less than the Renault Grand Scenic.
The Toyota Verso's cabin is sturdy to the touch, but it's beginning to look a bit dated and doesn't feel particularly upmarket. The cabin build quality seems rugged enough for family life, but rivals like the Citroen C4 Grand Picasso offer a more modern interior.
While the third row of seats is only suitable for children, the Toyota Verso is still a very practical car. Toyotas are also known to hold their value well on the second-hand market and have an excellent reputation for reliability.
MPG, running costs & CO2
All of the engines in the Toyota Verso offer decent economy figures but there isn't enough of gap between required services
Engines, drive & performance
The Toyota Verso is capable of carrying you and your brood around with ease, but it won't give you much joy while doing so
Interior & comfort
The Toyota Verso offers space for five adults and the rear seats can carry two kids. There's plenty of room for the family's paraphernalia, too
Practicality & boot space
A versatile seating system makes the Toyota Verso very practical
Reliability & safety
Toyota Verso has a five-star safety rating and an impeccable reputation for reliability

Skip to comments.Switzerland Votes on World's Highest Minimum Wage
Posted on 05/18/2014 5:16:57 AM PDT by wetphoenix
Switzerland's citizens voted Sunday on whether to create the world's highest minimum wage of 22 Swiss francs ($24.70) an hour.
If passed, the Swiss would more than double the existing highest minimum wages in force elsewhere in Europe. Results are expected later Sunday.
Trade unions sponsored the wage proposal as way of fighting poverty in a country that, by some measures, features some of the world's highest prices. But opinion polls indicated that most voters side with government and business leaders, who have argued it would cost jobs and erode economic competitiveness.
Switzerland currently has no minimum wage, but the median hourly wage is about 33 francs ($37) an hour.
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development lists the highest current minimum wage as Luxembourg' at $10.66 an hour, followed by France at $10.60, Australia at $10.21, Belgium at $9.97, and the Netherlands at $9.48. The U.S. minimum wage of $7.25 came tenth on the list. The OECD adjusted figures for spending power.
Voters also faced three other citizen-inspired referendums Sunday. If passed, these would provide the Swiss Air Force with 22 of Saab's new Gripen fighter jets; impose a lifetime ban on convicted pedophiles working with children; and amend the constitution to support more family doctors in rural areas.
Referendums are a regular feature of democracy in Switzerland, which features a weak central government and strong state governments.

Correct. They make watches. And chocolate and cheese. I think the most important point is that the Swiss have no minimum wage and are probably the most prosperous country in Europe.
I forgot one other thing.....
There is a Swiss company that bought the Tennessee technology for machines that grade cotton. They still have a facility in Tennessee and others in Switzerland. They are the standard for cotton grading technology.
Then there is Nestle....... global groceries
Hot chocolate mixes and candy will skyrocket....
Tourism. This should fix that.
Count other people's money...oh wait that's in banking. A lot of companies are headquartered there. Other people are in the hospitality industry, since it is a nice country to visit.
These government set minimum wages ignore productivity. To pay someone $24 an hour their labor must generate more than $24 of revenue per hour worked. For jobs as in the fast food industry this is not possible without drastically increasing the price of those burgers and reducing the number of workers. It might well be cheaper to automate production rather than pay a non or semi skilled worker $24 per hour.
They control/own 19 Pharma Companies.
You hit the nail on the head...
Hourly minimum wage usually is close to the cost of a normal McDonald's meal....say $7.25 minimum wage is cost of one meal...so increase minimum wage to $15.00 per hour and you get one of two things.
1. one meal costs close to $15.00
2. Employees lose their jobs to robots who work for less.
The latter will eliminate jobs for teens, who are in HS.
Seems counterproductive to me for the employee to fight for $15.00 an hour at fast food restaurants, when they can get a Pell Grant from the government, and train for a job that pays $15.00 an hour, such as a CNA...which takes about two months training including internship depending on state law. Sure they have to change patients diapers, but if they have babies they will have to change theirs too...good experience. Other options are bar tenders, hair stylists, barbers, auto mechanics etc, although some classes may take longer. Stick with that minimum wage job and work nights.
I worked my way through college....any work is worthwhile.
WE have the whining generation instead of the working one. And there are plenty of jobs out there, the teens in my family have had no problem finding work in this economy, although it takes looking and filling out applications.
The older one has a full time job with benefits now, after two years of community college and minimum wages at a grocery store...so getting off their keister is the first step to finding a job that pays well.
Higher paying job equals more payroll taxes to the government, thereby meaning more youth, who can get small grants to train for higher paying jobs...it's a hand up for the poor, and promotes capitalism... not a hand out or an entitlement like food stamps. People choose work or choose an alternative. Smart does not always mean productive.
The Swiss rejected this absurd minimum wage by a landslide....77% of voters said no.
"Switzerland currently has no minimum wage, but the median hourly wage is about 33 francs ($37) an hour."
That comes out to about $74,000 per year, if they work 2000 hours per year(which probably isn't the case there...but close enough). I don't think we're much more than half that. I guess our days are over.
Thank you, Mr. President.
If this is true, why are all the illegal aliens still trying to come here. If they can pay 5000 dollars for a "coyote" to sneak them into America, surely they can afford an airplane ticket to Geneva.
You must be stuck in the 1970s to think US is a world top nation in terms of median income and overall quality of life. I think around a dozen of nations ahead right now in terms of PPP household income, not to mention other criterias and the rest of the world in catching up.
"Switzerland currently has no minimum wage, but the median hourly wage is about 33 francs ($37) an hour."
That is a problem gov't needs to fix!
Old habits die hard. Not to mention Swiss is not as welcome to immigrants.
Anyway, their neighboring Germany is pretty much infested too.
Because the Swiss would toss them out on their keesters.
To immigrate legally you have to prove you have a skill set that they need.
If you are there illegality you are stamped "return to sender" and deported.
I'm sure many Swiss wish that were true.
The reality is that all one has to do is whisper that magic four letter word - Asyl - and they're golden. At least for a few years until they've exhausted all procedures.

Not I. I've been SCREAMING about China passing us in GNP and people HERE told me that I was full of it. Now that its happened people claim to not be surprised by it.

Skip to comments.FReeper Canteen ~ US Navy WAVES ~ 25 July 08
Posted on 07/24/2008 5:58:28 PM PDT by Kathy in Alaska
Ben Carpenter has muscular dystrophy and gets around in an electric wheelchair. One day as he was crossing an intersection, the light changed and a semi-truck caught the handles of Bens wheelchair in its grille. Unaware, the driver started down the road, and before long Ben was being pushed along at 50 miles per hour. Soon the rubber on the wheelchairs tires began to burn off.
Passersby saw the bizarre sight and phoned 911 to inform the police. When the truck driver pulled over, he was astonished to see what was attached to his trucks grille. Ben had a big scare but escaped without injury.
Sometimes we may feel as if our lives have been hijacked by unexpected circumstances. When David was invited to King Sauls court, he soothed the kings nerves by playing on his lyre. Then, unpredictably, the jealous king threw a spear at him. David found himself caught in a dangerous drama of pursuit in which King Saul tried to take his life. Yet David looked to God for immediate protection, and he ultimately received deliverance. Because of this experience he wrote of the faithfulness of God: You have been my defense and refuge in the day of my trouble (Ps. 59:16).
No matter what our trouble, God is there.

Snow, sleet are good news, bad news in Vt.February 28,2013
Storm packs punch in south
The Associated Press
A winter storm packed snow onto the mountains of Vermont and dumped a mixture of snow and rain in the lower elevations Wednesday, delighting ski resorts but causing problems for motorists and knocking out power to more than 270 homes.
By noon Wednesday, the mountain town of Woodford had already reported 11.8 inches, the National Weather Service said.
Mount Snow in West Dover had reported 7 to 9 inches of new snow and more was on the way as the storm was expected to continue overnight and into Thursday. The southern Green Mountains was forecast to get more than a foot. Other mountain areas could get 8 to 10 inches. Lower elevations could see several inches by this morning, as rain turns to snow, said Andy Nash, a National Weather Service forecaster in Burlington.
Ski areas reaped the benefit of elevation and were picking up some substantial accumulations of snow.
according to Tony Vazzano, of North Winds Weather, which tailors forecasts for many ski areas in northern New England.
This is a good day for the mountains, no question about it, Vazzano said. Vazzano said the Stratton and Killington ski areas in Vermont had 7 inches of new snow by Wednesday afternoon.
The mountains and ski areas are doing pretty good, Nash said. Theyre going to get the jackpot with this storm.
Green Mountain Power reported that at least 270 homes had lost power as of 7 p.m., including 198 in Lunenburg and 64 in Chester.MORE IN This Just InBERLIN Free trade talks between the European Union and the United States have failed, Germanys...

Chapters release third single from acclaimed album
The Dublin five-piece band The Chapters are to release 'Moving', the third single from their sparkling debut album Perfect Stranger,
The Hot Press Newsdesk, 14 Oct 2009
The release comes amid a crescendo of critical acclaim for both their dynamic live concerts and exhilarating recordings.
The release of 'Moving' will be followed by an increased intensity on the promo and gigging front, including a major concert at The Academy on November 20. It follows a busy Summer which saw The Chapters turn in a storming series of performances, including explosive shows at Oxegen, the Music Show at the RDS, Arthur's Day Guinness 250, and a match-winning half-time performance during the Magners League Rugby game between Leinster and Munster before a 20,000 capacity crowd!
'Moving' is the follow-up to their single 'Trying To Get Ahead', also taken from the album Perfect Stranger, and is likely to generate further kudos for a band now generating the most positive vibes throughout the music industry and the media.
The Chapters first made their mark in 2008, gigging to large crowds nationwide while supporting Neil Young, Cathy Davey, Chuck Berry and The Coronas, among other top names. But their new-found success comes in the wake of many trials and tribulations, including their first album being written off after the record label closed. But The Chapters' strength of character and commitment to their music prevailed, and within weeks they had signed another deal, this time with 3u Records, home to The Coronas. They started afresh, and with a renewed determination laid down their debut album with up-and-coming Irish producer Ciaran Bradshaw. Now, at last, they are enjoying the rewards of that commitment.
The band's sound marries a range of influences, from Rumours-era Fleetwood Mac, Talking Heads, The Cars and The Band, with their own timeless style to create music that transcends musical fashion.

Definition of slush in English:
1Partially melted snow or ice: the snow was turning into brown slush in the gutters
More example sentences
- Indeed, consider how many drivers on our roads today have any experience of driving in snow, slush and frost?
- There are times an aircraft and crew will get stuck at a location because the snow and ice become slush, making take-off impossible.
- I had never ventured to the south, so that is the way most of us went, trudging through the snow and slush on the ground.
1.1Watery mud.
Example sentences
- And then I thought, 'Oh great, spring, I remember, that's when they replace the piles of slush with piles of mud and it's a big rainy mess.'
- Life is still much the same: a constant battle against the elements, as wind and sleeting rain batter the coal-mining land to black slush and mud.
- Rubble and slush from potholes and mud dumped recklessly by the cable companies and various civic agencies have only added to citizens' woes.
melting snow, wet snow, mush, sludge
2 informal Excessive sentiment: the slush of Hollywood's romantic fifties films
More example sentences

- People who think that this ending is purely sentimental slush should give it another try.
- Yes, the holiday season is here complete with kiddie fodder that is virtually unwatchable for anyone over the age of 10 and mawkish slush about the joy of the family.

Make a squelching or splashing sound: there was water slushing around in the galley
More example sentences
- Kris slushed through the puddles of water, icy wind stinging her eyes.
- We slushed along the lake and made camp below it.
- The river slushed by with a beautiful white noise and the birds tweedle-dee-deed.
Mid 17th century: probably imitative; compare with slosh.
Slush and sludge (early 17th century) probably both imitate the sound made by walking through them, with slosh (early 19th century) being a variant of slush. Slush was also used by sailors for the accumulated fat which was left in the pot after meat was boiled for the crew. This could be sold off for use as a lubricant or fuel and the money used to buy luxuries for the crew. This was the original slush fund (mid 19th century), which had come to mean money used as a bribe by the late 19th century.

Currently we are using the ip address for all things as there is a splash page up that has a sign up form. We use rackspace for hosting. I get the "message has been sent" in the green box but nothing is sent to my defined email address. Could the ip thing be the issue or does that have nothing to do with it. I also installed configure smtp but that did not make it work. I basically want to know if the ip has anything to do with it and if I should go live with the site before I worry about fixing this issue. Thanks for your help.

It was meant to read: the truth really hurts about your club doesn't it!

The truth?
Well if you were interested in the truth rather than being a wind up you'd realise that although Benitez has bought a lot of players he has sold many aswell. Making a profit on some and at least recouping the initial outlay on most of the others. The biggest flop Benitez signing was Morientes who cost £6m and was sold for £3.5m -- a lot less than Fergie's £28m on Veron which resulted in a £14m loss after just one season!!! The fact of the matter is how many +£20m players do we have/or ever had?? 2!! How many +£30m players do we have /or ever had?? 0 -- now compare that to man utd and Chelsea!!! Truth of the matter is that Fergie wouldn't be anywhere near the top without the money. For the past 20 years man utd have consistently been the team that breaks the transfer record (only recently with Robinho does another team now have a more expensive signing than man utd).
Look at the transfer fees paid and stop being so deluded by your hatred for us... and remember when the transfers were made as obviously you don't seem to understand inflation.
e.g: (including future add-ons)
=/+£30m - Ferdinand, Tevez, Berbatov
=/+£25m - Rooney, VERON,
=/+£17m - Carrick, Anderson, Nani, Hargreaves, RVN

This is great if you want to keep your admin organized. Very useful plugin!
A great way to admin and organize your WordPress content.
This is killer! The only thing I'm missing is a sort option for the contents to find specific content types faster.
Having all the content related organization under one single tab is way easier for both dev and client to handle, Hierarchy does a great job for that, and the latest UI improvements are very welcome !
I don't understand why you're bothering reading this review instead of downloading and installing this plugin. Get to it.
I use a lot of custom post types to handle different types of content, or to allow me to hook special functionality to certain parts of the site. This makes a whole lot of sense to me as a programmer, but as a user my clients don't really care about it. They just want their content organized and editable in a way that's accessible and makes sense to a user. Hierarchy achieves that.
I'm using this plugin since quite a long time.. it's magic when it comes to showing the wp-admin to the clients. Just that everything is packed under "Content" makes it much more easy to navigate and understanding where clients can find the content to edit.
Often CPTs are used on Pages but they are a separate menu item so they lose the context to the "main" source where they will appear.. with hierarchy this problem is solved very elegant.
Also from the dev site i must say that the code quality on this is very good. You can learn a lot by taking a look at the code :)
Thanks for this great Plugin.
This plugin makes it easy to clean up the admin menu. It's extremely intuitive to use, and the code is clean and readable.
I wish I had heard about this plugin much sooner. Major, major improvement in usability.
Content types quickly get overwhelming. But if you want to simplify your post types and content management, install this plugin! It makes it so things make sense to clients and really takes the UI to the next level.

Skip to comments.More women feeling skeptical about Clinton's authenticity - though they wish they weren't
Posted on 07/08/2007 3:49:20 PM PDT by Eric Blair 2084
The most appealing thing about Hillary Rodham Clinton has always been her enemies, who often seem not in their right mind, screaming that she is a murderer and calling her names like "Her Thighness." They make you want to like her.
Yet in interviews across the country with women of all ages, races, income brackets and points of view, one of the rare patches of common ground was skepticism about the first female presidential contender with a serious shot at the White House. Over 18 months, I traveled to 20 states listening to women speak at length about what they care about and what drives them crazy as they look toward the presidential election in '08. I ought to like her, many of the strongest Democrats among them said. But on no other matter did left, right and center converge as on the view best summed up as "Anybody but Hillary' to the point that I began to dread the mention of her name, because it meant we would probably not get around to talking about anything else that day.
All of which runs contrary to the accepted narrative of this election cycle, which is that it is women who are leading the charge for Mrs. Clinton's candidacy. Polling, which at this point still mainly measures name ID, certainly shows a far more mixed picture for Mrs. Clinton where female voters are concerned; 51 percent of those who participated in a recent Washington Post-ABC News survey said they support her for the Democratic nomination.
(Excerpt) Read more at dallasnews.com ...
Q: Why are women more skeptical of Hillary than men?
A: Because women are much better at spotting phonies and disengenuous people than men are.
We all know it.
She is authentic. Authentically creepy. Authentically criminal. Authentically evil.
Ooooh, sexism is a bad thing in everybody else, but we have to support our girl because she represents all of us with sweater decorations and then feel guilty when the reality trumps the wishes.
Perhaps this means that more women are now able to identify a phony the way more men were able to identify her husband as a phony.
I guess only men can be sexist.
" listening to women speak at length "
Larry the Cable Guy says, "That's your problem, right there. Women should be obscene and not heard."
Forgive me Jesus, and all the little queers in dance class.
Why on earth would women feel guilty about not voting for Hillary? As a mother of two daughters, I'd have to say Hillary is the antithesis of a female role model. I'd feel guilty telling my daughters that Hillary was the best female we could come up with.
It just goes on.
Why in the heck do you "like the idea of Clinton" if YOU CAN'T FREAKIN' TRUST HER???
And why in the heck do you FELL GUILTY ABOUT IT?
Have I stepped into an alternate universe here???
She's a screeching, hectoring, holier-than-thou, Marxist Marie Antoinette.
I don't give a flip that's she's ugly and fat. I know plenty of ugly, fat people who are kind, honest, and humble, but hardworking and reliable. Sort of folks you can count on in a jam -- and you don't even notice they're homely or chubby, because their goodness illuminates them from inside and makes them beautiful. It wouldn't make any difference if Hillary had features like Catherine Deneuve -- her inner ugliness would distort and smear them.
*my mother-in-law excepted, she's nice. I think maybe it's every woman's idea of the wicked mother-in-law of legend.
Looks pretty obscene to me.
Well, duh. Let's try to be a little discriminating, please, and drop the guilt trips.
Not in my life time they've not been.......
Yes, she does. Now if she'll just work on the 'not heard' part, it'd be a good thing.
Women are certainly harder on other women than they are on men...
Hillary's a female? Whodathunk?
Naah. She's a female. She just isn't a lady.
This could not have been explained better. Thanks.
I find it hard to believe that women in this country would take any pride in that marxist sow being the 1st female President.
Among other women, not usually among men. I suspect this is due to what I thought would happen all along. We moved out of the new neighborhood, but, thanks to my wife, we never moved away from all the society women, and by in large, these women, like most women, took the catfight aspects they once had in high school, and went professional with it out in the real world.
That is just the truth. The reason Hillary is not going to be president is because there will be a certain number of women who vote against her out of jealousy alone. But by in large, I am going to say most women can't spot a phony on sight, because so many well, fall for them, or certainly buy their crap. Much in the same way that a man will often be blinded to the certain negative traits in a woman he'd certainly see in a man.
I stand by my Tagline
LOL! I love him.
They were taken in by Bill "I feel your pain" Clinton!!!
Then how do you explain the success of Oprah?
We are surrounded by idiots. Anything is possible.
A: Because women are much better at spotting phonies and disengenuous people than men are.
We all know it.
Speak for yourself. They didn't see Bill "I feel your pain" Clinton for what he was.
Hillary Clinton doesn't have a serious shot at the presidency, and never has. That is rubbish pushed by a hopeful media. Women in NYC disliked Hillary in surprising percentages even before her first senate run. I well recall the NY Post stories on the subject.
"They were taken in by Bill "I feel your pain" Clinton!!!
HOLY CRAP, DUDE, check out what I posted at#29 without ever seeing your post!
She is the most authentic bitch I have ever seen come along.
You're right. Women do not have better judgment on public figures than men do. I would say it's worse.
You're wrong that Shrillary doesn't have a chance. Team Clinton are masters of politics, and they're ruthless. The mealy-mouthed misgivings of moderates, and the liberals' demand for outspoken leftism, that this columnist is hearing are real enough. They will not, in the end, be decisive political factors.
Now, now, no need to insult female dogs by comparing them to the junior Senator from New York.
Married women are usually OK, it's the single ones that usually don't show good judgment.
What actual feminist would stick with Bill 'complete scumbag' Clinton? Why do some feminists support her? Because feminism was never about lifting up women, it was always about promoting liberal politics. Liberal women using naive women to turn the country harder left.
Give Cowboy Bob a cigar!!!
That's because so many women thought he was so good looking.
Women in NYC disliked Hillary in surprising percentages even before her first senate run.
Sadly, she was still elected.
What's wrong with "Her Thighness"? It's very much to the point.
She thinks she's she's entitled to be addressed as a Queen; there's no doubt about that. Nor is there any doubt that her presumption is wrong.
I find it sad that someone would vote for someone because they are a woman, or black, or white, etc. etc. Maybe there should be a test before allowed to vote, like there is to become a citizen.
It's not always true that women can spot phonies. They'd vote for Bill a third time, according to the above article. As much as I may dislike Hillary, Bill is the bigger phony.
Hillary has more testosterone running through her veins than Edwards.
If you believe that the world needs less testosterone and more estrogen (you can make the logical argument), he's your candidate.
The first tip off was her change of name...again. She's back to Hillary Clinton. Now that she's dropped the Rodham, the Feminists aren't happy.
Sure there are women who would celebrate her presidency. They're mostly from on of the Republics...the People's Republic of Santa Monica, CA, the People's Republic of San Francisco, the People's Republic of Mass., PR of VT......
The Dallas Morning News left out the crossword and the cryptograms today. That's the only reason to get this paper.
Doy you know why hillary doesn't wear underwear?
It gives her a better grip on her broomstick..

I have contact with 14 fellow distributor that are in the same shoes as you, and 3 of those victims found me via the previous post I made on Rip-off- if you look you will find my contact info.
Try filing a report at www.ic3.gov Fellow defrauded distributor Tim P found this site. We sent our complaints off in the last 2 days.
Sadly everything I have tried so far to get help getting even a portion of my money back has always met with a dead end - but I never give up trying. What worries the most is the people that don't post here to tell how this company has injured them.
Of the 14 distributors I have contact with, not one of us have made a penny and our calls and concerns either go unanswered or are met with one excuse after another.
It is funny that you mention monies to be made- they told me that distributors were making a minimum of $5000 a month and if you did their advertising program it was $10000 a month or more- now they tell me that there was never any mention of monies to be made - that that would be illegal.
Please know at this point if you are reading this and gave this company any monies you can pretty much bet you just lost your shirt and for that I am sorry. If you were smart enough to check here 1st - run as fast as you can from these guys- there is no money to be made only heart ache!
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?

Differences Between 2014 Darker Series and Billy Goat?
Thought I was decided on a Billy Goat, now very torn between these two boards for my final decision. Both have changed to C3BTX for 2014, and seem to be designed for a similar style of riding. Trying to find factors to differentiate between them, which right now seems to be little beyond different types of magne-traction, art design, and price.
Could anyone help by commenting on other differences between these boards, or what type of rider they are designed for? I'd classify myself as equal parts groomer bombing, steep trees, and getting more into powder bowls recently. Also curious on thoughts about the different magne-traction styles, as while I do ride some on the ice-coast I will also be taking this board out west a couple trips per year.
Base your choice on graphics.
in other words, you can't lose.
FWIW ..have not ridden a Dark nor a c3 but do have a c2 billy. Perhaps you can find some of my comments elsewhere on the billy. Thus pure speculation from looking at the specs of the Dark and comparing to ime of the billy.
First the mag on the billy is mellow not grabby/grippy but subtlety there verses reg mag you can definitely feel it.
Secondly Id imagine that the Darks torsional box is fairly stiff and beefy for response and control verses the billy is loose torsionally I imagine this will be the biggest difference. Thus what does this mean? It is about control (dark) verses flow (billy) the dark you will be able to get sideways/perpendicular/traverse of the fall line .vs the billy will want to keep the nose in the fall line and run down it. The dark you can work on the terrain vs billy you have to work with the terrain.
As a rider and style imho which I suck and perhaps too old, stiff and slow the billy is more challenging to ride well that is trying to be smooth and flowy (look for drizzle/temple Cummings on viemo dude flows so smooth over natty) and that is what the billy is made for. Ime the billy really demands that you mentally stay ahead of it and if not it will take you for a ride.
I'd imagine either will be good...but ask yourself about how much you realistically want to be sideways in the fall line (or how much control do you want)....cause the billy don't like it....and will fight you...its a beast that wants to run down the hill...so you got to loosen up on the reins (less control)...but stay ahead of it and anticipate which way it will go (read terrain well). Last Thurs was day 2 of this year on the billy...it beat my ass, took me for a ride and ran me in to a tree...tweaked my ankle and done for the day :dizzy:.

I am not a trusting person with my kids. I would only let them stay over with certain relatives. I would feel comfortable with DS staying with my stepbrother and SIL in general, especially if it were some kind of emergency and we needed someone to care for him overnight. However, they keep asking for DS to have a "sleepover" at their house. I just can't do it. He seems WAY too young. I know they would take great care if him, but 2 years old (almost 3) seems too young. Maybe 5 years old sounds OK to me.
DH is going overseas for work for two weeks. They have asked to have DS for a sleepover then. Am I crazy to think he is not ready/too young?

They are still charging members for gimmicks such as pay to see the rest of the cards buy play chips all of wich are charged to your Credit Card and they continue to charge members each month to continue there membership for those who are new coming in or that pay on a month to month basis and they still owe me a referral fee of Fifty Dollars which is now owed to me for well over a month.
I warn all new comers not to join do your homework and any further feedback about Pure Play would be greatly appreciated . Take care and have great luck at the poker tables .
