Our house is still buzzing about the wonderful Canberra Balloon Spectacular that we went to see last weekend. It is truly a fabulous event and it inspired us to create our own hot air balloons (crafty versions at least)
We made ours from the ever versatile, paper plate!
What you will need:
- Paper plate
- Plastic cup
- 2 lengths of string
- sticky tape
- decorations for the balloon - we used washi tape, stickers, foam shapes, scraps of fabric and feathers (whatever we could find really)
- fishing line (optional, if you wish to hang your balloons up, like we did)
All you need to do is decorate your paper plate however you wish, using the decorations you have chosen. Then attach the string to opposite edges of the paper plate with sticky tape, then attach the other end of the string to your plastic cup to create the balloon's basket. Voila! You have yourself a super easy and utterly fabulous hot air balloon. We hung ours in my daughter's bedroom, using fishing line so it looks like they are floating.
Here is a closer look at the creative decorations for my daughter's hot air balloon. It's definitely a great use of texture. I simply adore her creativity.
I used Washi tape to decorate my balloon and used every colour and pattern I had! The brighter the better I say!
Of course a hot air balloon needs passengers, so we found a few little friends to go for a ride.
I love how they turned out. So bright and colourful and they have made a wonderful addition to my daughter's room. She loved looking at them float in her room tonight as we read our stories before bed.
Have you ever had a ride in a hot air balloon?

Highly recommend for adults over 50, men and women. Combine with neem powder for better results.

I've been using Shatavari morning and evenings now for about 2 weeks and I'm feeling great! I love that the taste is smooth and not overpowering.
My female essence seems to begin feeling enhanced and balanced. It's taken a long time for me to find a natural product to replace the estrogen levels in my body. Shatavari seems to do the trick!
Thanks for loving the women in this world with Shatavari..

The state Office for People with Developmental Disabilities [OPWDD] is being urged by State Sen. Michael H. Ranzenhofer, R-Clarence, to re-examine its procedures for the placement of people in residential group home settings after convicted sex offenders were transferred to Newstead.
In a letter to the acting commissioner of OPWDD, Ranzenhofer said reports about transfers of sex offenders from a Monroe County facility "raise serious concerns with me."
He wrote, in part: "Communities across the state have accepted group homes as part of the community on the basis that they would house non-violent individuals with disabilities so that they could experience greater independence. I am extremely concerned that allowing convicted sex offenders to live in these facilities will only increase the challenges associated with building and locating new group homes."
Also this week:
• The Akron Village Board meets at 7:30 p.m. Monday in Village Hall, 21 Main St.
• A work session of the Newstead Town Board work session begins at 7:30 p.m. Monday in Town Hall, 5 Clarence Center Road.

Each word became more intense and rapid as Bryant Jennings rolled through his victory rap Saturday night. A dozen family members and friends stood behind him and listened silently.
"I'm never scared. I'm everywhere. They aren't ever there," said Jennings. "Come on. Why would I ever care. Pound-for-pound, one of the best to ever come around here."
Instead of calling out his next opponent, Jennings chose to freestyle rap after knocking out Bowie Topou in the fifth round to successfully defend his USBA heavyweight title at Temple's McGonigle Hall. The win improved Jennings to 16-0 with eight KOs.

Patient Rating
If you are reading this, and the thought of having an operation is a little daunting, it may be helpful to arm yourself with some useful information. For most folks, the mere idea of undergoing a surgery can be a stressful and confusing time. Many people are still recovering from the surprise that their condition requires an operation, and are unprepared and overwhelmed with the amount of information they are given in anticipation of the procedure. Below is a brief and simplified summary of some of the things you may be told and are expected to understand. Because every surgery is a little different in regard to indications, expectations, risks, and recovery, the guide below should serve as a road map to help you navigate the process.
Most surgeons use the terms preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative to describe the various stages involved, and we will break these down to make understanding them a little easier.
For most folks, the idea of undergoing an operation can be a stressful and confusing time. If the thought of having a surgery is a little daunting, it may be helpful to arm yourself with some useful information.
Before any operation, you should have the opportunity to talk with your surgeon. This consultation should include an explanation of why you need a surgery, what other options are available, and what the surgery and recovery entail. All operations have risks and complications and you should learn about them as part of the decision making process.
It is often necessary to perform certain tests or studies prior to your surgery. These are for your benefit so that your surgeon has as much information about you and your situation as possible. Surgeons do not like surprises.
Make sure to follow your preoperative instructions. This is your side of the bargain after you have decided to have surgery. Following directions about medications, fasting (not eating), and other prepa...

Copper Rises for Second Day on Bets Stimulus Will Boost Demand
Copper rose to a two-week high on speculation that China, the world's largest user of the metal, will take more steps to bolster growth.
China, where the economy expanded 7.6 percent from a year earlier last quarter, needs to adopt a "moderately easing" policy when growth is below 8 percent, the Shanghai Securities News reported today, citing Fan Jianping, the chief economist at the State Information Center. Odds that the People's Bank of China will take action are rising as gains in consumer prices slow, according to Credit Agricole CIB.
"The markets seem to be focusing on expectations that the Chinese authorities will now accelerate policies to rev up their economy," Edward Meir, an analyst at INTL FCStone in New York, said in a report.
Copper futures for September delivery climbed 1.7 percent to settle at $3.5345 a pound at 1:25 p.m. on the Comex in New York. Earlier, the price touched $3.545, the highest since July 3.
U.S. reports today showing a rise in jobless claims and an unexpected drop in sales of previously owned homes may add pressure on the Federal Reserve to take further steps to shore up the economy. Policy makers are ready to take steps to spur growth "as appropriate," Fed Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said yesterday in a second day of testimony before lawmakers.
On the London Metal Exchange, copper for delivery in three months advanced 1.2 percent to $7,730 a metric ton ($3.51 a pound).
Aluminum, zinc, tin and lead also rose in London. Nickel fell.

Only works on sign in screen
That's interesting. Does it work after you boot into Safe Mode?
Settings > Power > Shift + Restart > Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings > Restart > Startup Settings menu (select #4)
My similar story here.
IMHO this problem is caused by Windows Update installing a new driver which is nonfunctional w/this laptop.
As far as I'm aware, there is as yet no satisfactory solution to this problem (if you expect reliable scrolling functionality from the touchpad on this PC, in addition to basic pointing & clicking functionality).
12-23-2012 11:41 AM - edited 12-23-2012 11:43 AM
- use keyboard only to navigate to Control Panel, into Device Manager to revert to previous driver
- this leaves the default MS PS/2 mouse driver, which gives ONLY point&click, no scrolling functionality.
- [Thinking I would try again (while taking better notes)] from Device Manager, update driver; reboot
- again, touchpad does NOT work at all (same as #2 above)
- again back into Device Manager via keyboard: version (of non-functioning driver) is (for the record) Synaptics 188.8.131.52; revert to default MS mouse driver, download Synaptics 16.2.21 from http://www.synaptics.com/resources/drivers/
You don't say anything about installing the driver from Toshiba.
Did you try that?
Did your pad work on the sign-in screen and then quit after login (like bnachim's)?
BTW, your best bet to get a reply here is to start a new thread.

GEN News Highlights : Jun 8, 2007
Scientists at Lexicon Pharmaceuticals and Fox Chase Cancer Center (FCCC) discovered that deletion of the ubiquitously expressed ribosomal protein L22 (Rpl22) gene resulted in the upregulation of p53, a key tumor suppressor gene that triggers apoptosis. Further, it was determined that this upregulation of p53 was responsible for blocking alpha-beta+ T-cell development, thereby creating an immune-deficient state.
"The connection between Rpl22 and the p53-mediated apoptosis pathway is exciting," said David Wiest Ph.D., member of the basic science division at FCCC. "If research confirms our theories, Rpl22 may prove to be an important biomarker for certain T-cell immune deficiency diseases and some types of lymphoid cancers."
"These findings could help us to further define the pathways involved in T lymphocyte development and regulation," said Tamas Oravecz, Ph.D., Lexicon's vp of immunology and oncology. "While Rpl22 will likely prove difficult for development as a classic drug target, understanding its role could contribute significantly to its potential as a biomarker for disease."
These findings have been published in the June issue of Immunity.

Comments about Levenger K2 Fountain Pen Piston Converter:
These standard converters are a necessity for fountain pen use when the barrel of the pen is metal. Of the many sources available to purchase this converter, I came to Levenger's as my shopping source. Good price, great service from the folks at Levenger.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Best converter I have ever used
By Tool Junkie
from Kent WA
Since I have a collection of different colors of bottled ink, I have purchased extra nibs and converters making it easier to switch colors. The Levenger converters seem better as they load with a worm-drive piston rather than a squeeze-release mechanism. The ink chamber is clear to allow better monitoring of ink level and the fit to the nib is very reliable. One who writes in great volumes may find the ink chamber to be limited but reloading is free of any problems with leakage.
Piston converter - a must have.
By FountainPenScribe
from Tallahassee, FL
I prefer bottled ink to cartridges so I purchased this for an old Parker 51 (1980 version) not knowing if it would fit/work. It did. It also worked on another Parker - I think it is called the Student 51. I tried it on my even older Parker 51 from 1975 and it worked on that one too.It does not leak or cause spills or blots. An excellent product I would recommend to anyone who has a fountain pen similar to mine they are unable to use because the bottled ink filler mechanism no longer functions.
consistent quality
By Campy
from Fairfield Glade, GTN
For fountain pens to be the fountain pen of traditional quality and style, the converter is the essence. The value of the fountain pen only occurs when it is steeped in the history of its use. The converter from Levenger makes it so.

Ancestral Health Info
I design websites and blogs for a living. If you would like a blog or website designed by someone who understands Primal, see my web page.
Primal Blueprint Explorer My blog for people who are not into the Grok thing. Since starting the blog, I have moved close to being Archevore instead of Primal. But Mark's Daily Apple is still the best source of information about living an ancestral lifestyle.
My fool proof curry recipe, not necessarily traditional:
you'll need
-1 diced onion
-handful of fresh garlic, minced
-1 can of fire roasted tomatoes
-a few red chilis, diced
-1 can of coconut milk (can also sub heavy cream, whole milk, or half/half)
-whole coriander seeds (powder works too, but the seed is where it's at)
-garam masala (or any kind of curry spice mix, but I find generic curry powder is boring)
-garlic & onion powder
-salt & pepper
Start out frying your onions in butter or coconut oil until golden brown, then add your garlic and chilis and sweat for a few minutes. Throw in all of your spices along with some more fat, and fry for a minute or two; be careful not to let it burn. Add your tomatoes, and cook on medium-low until the water content is gone. Throw all of this into a blender and puree until smooth, then add back into your pan. Add the milk, and reduce until it's thick. Adjust your spices and salt until you reach the desired taste.
This goes great with any kind of meat; I'll serve it up with salmon, tilapia, turkey meatballs, chicken breasts, ground lamb or beef, whatever floats your boat. Typical curry recipes involve cooking the meat in the sauce, but I find that just releases a bunch of gross water content into the sauce, best to cook the meat separately.
If you want carbs, serve it up with white rice, quinoa, potatoes, or sweet potatoes. If not, a veggie salad on the side will suffice, or I'll often just dump a pile of spinach into the sauce and let it wilt.
As far as eating out, I think the oils they use are the thing you really need to fear. Very very few restaurants, even high end ones, use real butter. White rice is a pretty innocuous carb source, and roti is made from chickpea flour, so it's really only the naan you need to avoid. If you're doing this at home, tapioca flour can be used to make a great gluten-free flatbread.
The whole concept of a macronutrient, like that of a calorie, is determining our language game in such a way that the conversation is not making sense." - Dr. Kurt Harris
Many Indian recipes qualify as primal. Just ignore the ones with legumes and flours. Always use ghee to fry in. My favourite cookbook is Charmaine Solomon's Indian Cookery for Pleasure. Many of her recipes are on the web
Four years Primal with influences from Jaminet & Shanahan and a focus on being anti-inflammatory. Using Primal to treat CVD and prevent stents from blocking free of drugs.
Eat creatures nose-to-tail (animal, fowl, fish, crustacea, molluscs), a large variety of vegetables (raw, cooked and fermented, including safe starches), dairy (cheese & yoghurt), occasional fruit, cocoa, turmeric & red wine
Suneeta Vaswani has IMO the best Indian cookbooks out there. I took a cooking class with her once and I was hooked. I've served her recipes to my Indian friends and they tell me it's close enough to home cooking to satisfy them
If you don't want to buy a cookbook, just google Indian recipes... though there's a world of difference between north and south/East and west Indian cuisines. If you know a dish you like, just google that.

Website are turning to be more and more trendy in recent times. People are adding various innovative graphics to their websites to make them look more catchy. One such effect is 'LightBox'. Lightbox is an attractive visual in which certain object of website is outshine by darkening the remaining screen. It is very useful for those websites which want to show zoom images on same page where they exist. With lightbox it becomes easy for webmaster to make images zoom on the same page without opening a new tab or popup.
But in the competition of better rankings, exorbitant Jquery lightbox code is proving to be inefficient. Lightbox is resulting in increased site loading time which frustrate the visitors.
So today I am going to share with you the extra light lightbox coding that you can add to your website without any loading fear or SEO compromise.

iPhone a no-show at Apple Expo (and now we know why)The Apple Expo — Europe's largest Apple and Mac tradeshow — kicked off in Paris this week to little fanfare. Not helping matters was the conspicuous absence of iPhone, which had been widely expected to make its French debut at the conference. So it doesn't take a genius to figure out that something went awry.
For the past three days, that something has been the subject of considerable debate, especially considering that a spokesperson for France Telecom told Dow Jones last Thursday that company had definitively "signed an agreement with Apple to sell the iPhone."
In addition, other stars seemed to be aligning at precisely the right time — Apple chief executive Steve Jobs had planned a lengthy trip to Europe and in the days leading up to the Paris expo had ushered the iPhone into both the UK an Germany during separate press conferences in those respective regions.
So what happened? According to a report posted to the Challenges website Thursday, France Telecom — which umbrellas the Orange brand — and Apple are struggling to come to an agreement on the distribution of the handset in France.
Without citing sources, the French weekly said Apple and the French carrier are also at odds over the percentage of service revenues the telecom operator had to give to Apple as part of the distribution deal (reportedly 10 percent). Should the two parties fail to reach an agreement quickly, the launch of the iPhone in France ahead of the crucial Christmas season could be jeopardized, the report added.
This has left more than a few onlookers scratching their heads. Did France Telecom jump the gun before the ink on its contract with Apple had time to dry? Was its statement last Thursday a miscommunication between corporate and media relations? Or did the carrier pull an abrupt 180 and elect to bow out of a just-signed agreement within a certain grace period?
Those questions still seek answers.

A: No, I do not support an increase in the minimum wage. That is a temporary solution to a long term problem. Government and crony capitalism manipulation of the market have done more harm than good. The free market should be a voluntary interaction between businesses and consumers, something is exchanged for something they need. Items, goods, services, could be money, bitcoins; there is so much room for choice in a consumer driven market. Look at utilities, they have a near monopoly and they can dictate price instead of a voluntary model where everybody has a say.
The candidate wouldn't say whether he supports a state-based effort to increase Minnesota's minimum wage to $9.50 an hour. He called the vote concerning gender-based pay discrimination an election-year trick and said personhood legislation, which seeks to give fetuses the same rights as people, is a "polarizing" issue that he wouldn't focus on. When asked about the minimum wage, he said it was "the wrong question."
"What I think is really important with politicians and with leaders [is] you understand their overriding philosophies--how do they make decisions?" McFadden said. "And so I've been very specific in this campaign as to how I make decisions and it begins with my view of government, my philosophy of government."
We need to work to "level the playing field" in both international trade and national farm policies so that our farmers and agri-businesses can compete in a fair, competitive arena. In addition, we need to improve and increase marketing opportunities, both domestic and foreign, not only for our major commodities, but also for unique specialty crops and products.

Having owned Wells Fargo stock over the years(and did quite well) I know that they would NOT enterinto a major joint venture (check cashing) if they didnot think there was money to be made. As I postedbefore, it takes money to make money, and Cash America isdoing the right thing in my opinion. I bought 500 moreshares under 17 yesterday. PAWN might be a good company,but they are not diversifying, as is PWN.BTW, I wrote a letter to Dougherty over a year agosuggesting selling items on the internet - he didn't thinkit was a great idea, but maybe PWN shouldreconsider. It may not be a big profit center, but it wouldgive them exposure - especially to a completelydifferent market. Sell those Rolex's to Sillicon Valleytypes!
As for PAWN not diversifying, maybe you need to read the following press release from 6/24.http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/980624/tx_first_c_1.html

Unless defenseman Chris Pronger can play a game without shooting the puck, he will not be in the lineup Saturday when the Flyers face Buffalo at the Wells Fargo Center.
Prior to the Flyers' practice Friday in Voorhees, Pronger again skated but did not shoot because of his injured right hand, which is still recovering from March 15 surgery.
General manager Paul Holmgren said the 36-year-old defenseman was day-to-day and would be a game-time decision, but it appears Pronger will not play until Game 3 on Monday at the earliest.

Hege received his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1987 from Bethel College, where he majored in music and history. He continued his studies at the University of Utah, earning a Master of Music degree in orchestra conducting and also founding the University Chamber Orchestra and serving as assistant conductor of the University Orchestra and music director of the Utah Singers. He subsequently studied with Paul Vermel at the Aspen Music Festival, and in Los Angeles with noted conductor and pedagogue Daniel Lewis.
In May 2004, Hege was awarded an honorary degree of Doctor of Humane Letters from Le Moyne College in Syracuse for his contributions to the cultural life in central New York State. Born in Colorado and raised in Idaho, Hege currently lives in Syracuse with his wife and their three daughters.

Arum: Who Cares What Schaefer Says? He's Not Involved!
By Michael "Not Chris LaBate" Marley
Contrary to repeated assertions and allegations that his promotional ego is out of control and that he's blocking the path to making the Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Manny Pacquiao Super Fight, Bob Arum said Tuesday that he and his Top Rank company will only play "a functionary role" if the two fighters select any one of three investor group offers.
In essence, Arum explained, the three groups, all acting separately, are laying out huge offers to completely underwrite what is expected to be boxing's richest event ever with Floyd and Manny purses hovering around the $50 million mark.
"That's why we have (Pacquiao agent Michael) Koncz carrying the ball on this right now. That is why he went to the Mayweather gym and met and spoke to Floyd. Michael was invited there by one of the three groups," Arum said before attending a Miguel Cotto open workout at the Trinity Boxing Gym, hard by Occupy Wall Street locale Zuccotti Park, Cotto is hoping to occupy Margarito, I guess.
"Everything is subject to negotiation and I will take the offers to Manny and, if Manny agrees then we can go to Floyd."
Arum conceded that historically he is not used to having such a huge promotion completely financed. But the Top Rank major domo, who turns age 80 on Dec. 8, said he knows another octogenarian promoter who has done so.
""I've never worked like this, really," Arum said. "If we get Manny and then Floyd to agree on a package, then my company would take a functional role, we would handle the nuts and bolts, the boxing aspects of the promotion. Of course, these investors, having made a fabulous investment in the fight, would have plenty to say about every aspect of it.
"If a group is selected, would they have great input? Absolutely, they would have that. The pasty master of this kind of promotion is not me, it's like what Don King did in Zaire (Ali-Foreman) and in Manila (Ali-Foreman III).
"Who knows, maybe Don would turn up for a reprise."
(I think BA was being jocular at this point.)
Arum declined to indetify the money men except to reveal that all three are involved in "a mixture" of "finance, sports and entertainment" businesses.
"That's what they all have in common," Arum said. "One group from New York approached me initially and I think the other two made their approach to Koncz."
Arum said there was no great rush to delineate the respective offers. He said he would visit Pacquiao in the Philippines early into the New Year to sit down and put pencil to paper if he has firm, detailed offers in hand.
"I can't attend Manny's birthday party this year (Dec. 17) because of a personal committment but I'd go see him soon after that," Arum said. "We would be crazy not to carefully explore these unprecedented offers."
Arum said he thinks all the groups prefer a U.S. site (which translates probably to Las Vegas) and added that Pacquiao would look for a date in June, not the May 5 MGM Grand Hotel & Casino date that Mayweather keeps pushing.
"Manny needs time for that eye cut (from the Nov. 12 Marquez III bout) to heal properly." Arum said.
"This whole thing looks like it can be a win-win for Manny and for Floyd, for everybody who is involved."
In response to a major verbal blast, attacking him as a habitual liar, from Golden Boy's Richard Schaefer Monday, Arum said it did not bother him.
"It's understandable because Richard is on the outside looking in," Arum said. "Who knows and who cares what Richard says?
"They have no contract with Floyd, that's fact. Just like Manny, aside from our contract with him, can choose who he wants representing him so can Floyd do the same thing. We don't tell Floyd or Manny who they can have working for them."
And so, as Linda and not Leonard Ellerbe used to say, it goes.
I asked Arum about Ellerbe's remark that Koncz did not speak to Mayweather during his gym visit and that Floyd did not who the Canadian was.
"Isn't that sad?" Arum said. "Michael was there with the investor group. They had a meeting, a concise meeting about the situation and anything else said on that is bulls**t."
Finally, Arum said he has a fond regard for the whole Mayweather clan. Top Rank formerly promoted Floyd Jr., uncle Roger when he was a world champ and uncle Jeff when he was a pro boxer.
"I consider myself friendly with all the Mayweathers," Arum said. "I handled Roger and Jeff also, I think they are all great guys."
Now it's turning into a fistic lovefest, folks. Cue up the O'Jays singing their smash hit, "For The Love of Money."

Hong Kong Lifestyle Strains City's Resources
Hong Kong's rapacious consumption and waste production is straining its natural resources and could leave the city vulnerable to global price swings and supply shortages, the World Wide Fund for Nature warns.
The organization's latest report notes Hong Kong's ecological footprint is more than twice the size of China's and nearly triple the Asia-Pacific average. "If everyone lived the lifestyle we lead in Hong Kong, humanity would need 2.6 Earths to sustain our resource needs," wrote CW Cheung, a chartered engineer who heads the Footprint Programme at WWF-Hong Kong.

Mouse Mission and a few little updates.
It's been on shelves since October, but I've been busy riding around the country – can ya blame me? In any case, I've updated the Books page with a few peeks inside the last book in the Mousenet trilogy. I've also tided up the other neglected pages on my website.
Oh, and if you're a fan of SpongeBob and liked my comic in issues #44 and #48, keep an eye out for the back cover of issue #49…and maybe another inside story soon!

Updates From The Road
Hello from the west coast! The scooter trip is going swimmingly. 13,000 miles later, I made it to the Pacific and combed my way down the coast. It looks like I'll be staying in the Bay Area for the winter. In case you're not caught up, you can follow my travels at 250superhero.blogspot.com. Since May 5th, 2014, I've been taking my Vespa GTS 250 across the US, and posting a drawing for every day I'm on the road. Yup, daily drawings (I can hardly believe it myself).
Now that I'm settled in for the winter though, I've had a chance to update the website a little. As you may have noticed, the store has gone on hiatus, since my stock is packed away in storage in RI. More excitingly though, I have a few new pieces in the gallery. My favorite is between the sweet and simple Sass and Hamisher homage to Bill Watterson, or the illustration for the inside cover of SpongeBob Comics #34. It's great working with Chris Duffy again, and super fun to draw Spongey in my 'cute' style!

Plugin developers can list their plugins and download counts from wordpress.org.
The plugin arguments and default values may change over time. To get the latest list of arguments and defaults, look at the settings page after installing the plugin.
Use a shortcode to call the plugin from any page or post like this:
This will:
Your wordpress.org profile ID is your login on wordpress.org. You must include this or the plugin will do nothing.
You can also call the plugin in your functions.php, ex:
if (function_exists('wpprs')) {
wpprs(array('uid' => 'your userid', 'show' => true));
Always wrap plugin function calls with a
function_exists check so that your site doesn't go down if the plugin isn't active.
The output contains extensive CSS classes you can target in your style.css. You can style alternating rows and style each table column separately. View the output source to see the table CSS structure, or browse the plugin's 'css' folder. The CSS to duplicate the screenshot is included in the plugin. You will need to override this if you want to see something different.
Clear your browser cache and also clear your cache plugin (if any). If you still don't see anything, check your webpage source for the following:
<!-- WP Plugin Repo Stats: plugin is disabled. Check Settings page. -->
This means you didn't pass a necessary setting to the plugin, so it disabled itself. You need to pass at least the wordpress.org userid, either by entering it on the settings page or passing it to the plugin in the shortcode or PHP function. You should also check that the "enabled" checkbox on the plugin settings page is checked. If this box is unchecked, the plugin will do nothing even if you pass your userid.
The plugin output is cached (using WP 3.5+ transients) to avoid overtaxing the wordpress.org website with excessive scraping requests. Excessive scraping may result in an IP ban, which would cause denial of service. Wait until the cache expires, then reload the page to view your settings changes.
Even if you specify a very low cache time (ex: 60 seconds), the plugin will only re-fetch content every 5 minutes. Please do not edit the plugin to change this. Unless the download count is very low, it is highly unlikely that any given plugin is downloaded so often that someone visiting a page after five minutes would actually notice how many more downloads it has.
You might also consider clearing your browser cache and your caching plugin.
Are you using a plugin that minifies CSS? If so, try excluding the plugin CSS file from minification.
The CSS files include a
?ver query parameter. This parameter is incremented with every upgrade in order to bust caches. Make sure none of your plugins or functions are stripping this query parameter. Also, if you are using a CDN, flush it or send an invalidation request for the plugin CSS files so that the edge servers request a new copy of it.
The cache is userid-dependent and site-wide. You cannot specify different cache times for the same userid concurrently -- the first shortcode or function call that is made on an empty cache will set the cache time. Ideally you are only displaying the output of this plugin once on your site.
WP Plugin Repo Stats has to visit a given user's wordpress.org profile page, then (if requested) visit each plugin's page and parse it for the plugin's rating. This is time consuming and totally dependent on wordpress.org's network availability. If a given user has a large amount of plugins in the repo, it could take a relatively significant amount of time to fetch each page. To optimize the plugin's operation, the star rating is left blank if there is a page error on wordpress.org (no stars).
To speed up the plugin operation, increase the cache time and (if possible) do not request plugin star ratings (uncheck 'Show plugin ratings?' on the plugin settings page). The default cache time is 12 hours and I recommend you leave it that way to avoid burdening wordpress.org.
Add this to your functions.php:
remove_action('admin_print_footer_scripts', 'add_wpprs_quicktag');
Add this to your functions.php:
remove_action('admin_head', 'insert_wpprs_admin_css');
Add this to your functions.php:
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'remove_wpprs_style');
function remove_wpprs_style() {
This plugin adds one or more toolbar buttons to the HTML editor. You will not see them on the Visual editor.
The label on the toolbar button is "Plugin Repo Stats".
Use the "pluginname" parameter like this:
[plugin-repo-stats pluginname="Name of your plugin"]
This will output a small box with a link to the plugin page on wordpress.org, the date, the download count and the plugin rating (if checked on the plugin settings page).
On the plugin settings page, go to the "Parameters" tab. There is a list of possible parameters there along with the default values. Make sure you are spelling the parameters correctly.
The Parameters tab also contains sample shortcode and PHP code.

Racism and the Myth of a "Victim Mentality"
Tim Wise: It's a common argument, made by those who would rather ignore or finesse the problem of racism in America.

The possibility that persons of color might adopt a victim mentality once they learn the extent of racism, means we simply have to move on, and tell those who are, as a matter of fact, often the victims of injustice not to dwell on their experiences too much, lest their commitment to self-help be vitiated.

Fight Colorectal Cancer stays actively involved in the research process from beginning to end. Part of our role in research is monitoring the progress of new drugs – drugs that may be used in treatment plans of colorectal cancer in the future. We actively work with drug companies to stay up-to-date on the latest treatments so that we can let patients and families know what's happening in the science of colorectal cancer.
For the last year, Fight Colorectal Cancer staff have tracked the progress of the drug TAS-102 – an oral chemo drug currently being evaluated in clinical trials for patients with metastatic refractory colorectal cancer. At the ESMO World GI Congress on Gastrointestinal Cancer, results from the phase 3 RECOURSE trial showed that TAS-102 improved survival for colorectal cancer patients who had stopped responding to any of the existing treatment options.
About the TAS-102 Trial
The RECOURSE trial enrolled patients whose cancer continued to grow after receiving first-line and second-line treatments. These patients received either TAS-102 or a placebo. In addition, all patients received best supportive care. The trial was conducted in Japan, United States, Europe and Australia from June 2012 to December 2014.
Results of the Trial
The results of the clinical trial showed that overall survival for the patients who took the TAS-102 pill was 7.1 months; for patients who received the placebo, it was to 5.3 months. The 11-week difference between the chemotherapy drug and placebo is statistically significant.
Side effects included relatively modest leucopenia and neutropenia, which increase risk of infection, and anemia, which causes fatigue. Dr. Robert Mayer, from the Dana Farber / Harvard Cancer Center who is the US Primary Investigator for the trial commented that,
"the results from the RECOURSE study are quite encouraging and support, in an 800 patient international cohort, the previously published data from a randomized phase II study conducted in Japan."
Implications for Colorectal Cancer Patients
Dr. Richard Goldberg from Ohio State University discussed the RECOURSE results at ESMO. He says that this new drug and these results are encouraging for several reasons:
Different from 5-FU
The drug works similarly to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in that it binds to DNA and stops cancer cells from dividing. Unlike 5-FU, TAS-102 also appears to affect the growth of blood vessels into tumors. Laboratory studies show that TAS-102 is active in tumors that are resistant to 5-FU and that the drug inhibits tumor growth more effectively than 5-FU in some tumors sensitive to 5-FU. This preclinical profile is therefore very promising. (Note: A preclinical profile is based off research performed in labs as opposed to on people.)
Well tolerated in patients
In addition, Dr. Goldberg commented that the patients studied in the RECOURSE trial had been heavily pretreated, with almost all having received every approved drug for treating colorectal cancer before they received TAS-102, including 5-FU, oxaliplatin, irinotecan, bevacizumab and EGFR inhibitors (cetuximab, panitumumab) for patients without a KRAS mutation. The tumors in these patients are very resistant to drugs and patients may experience symptoms due to their advanced disease that make treatment harder to tolerate. The fact that side effects of TAS-102 are mainly related to low white cell counts and anemia means that even this group of patients who've received nearly every drug already could tolerate these pills well, a prerequisite to getting any benefit. This toxicity profile also suggests TAS-102 may combine well with other chemotherapy or biological agents.
Patients with KRAS Mutations
TAS-102 appears to be somewhat active in patients who have tumors with the KRAS mutation (KRAS-MT). The overall survival for these patients was 6.5 months if they received TAS-102, compared to 4.9 months if they did not. While this 7-week difference is small, it suggests, as would be expected, that there is some activity regardless of KRAS status.
What's next for TAS-102?
Drs. Leonard Saltz and Anna Varghese are conducting a phase 1 trial of TAS-102 combined with approved treatment irinotecan at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York to find the most effective dose of the two drugs. Additional information about the trial can be found in clinicaltrials.gov. Dr. Saltz says that,
"we've been interested in this drug for a few years now and are working to integrate it into earlier lines of treatment by combining it with other standard drugs."
Taiho Pharmaceuticals, the company producing TAS-102, plans to submit to FDA for regulatory approval toward the end of 2014. The timeline for FDA review is not publicly available; however, Taiho Pharmaceuticals and FDA discussions are ongoing. Fight Colorectal Cancer will continue working with Taiho Pharmaceuticals to get the latest information out to patients.
For Patients on Treatment NOW:
Currently, access to TAS-102 is possible only through active clinical trials. Access to TAS-102 prior to FDA approval may become available by the end of the year at certain locations – we will post updates as more information is supplied.
Our team and Medical Advisory Board members will continue to track the progress of TAS-102 and keep patients informed when this option becomes available via clinical trial.
This new drug may provide treatment options for patients in the future, but it's not ready for prime time yet. If you have questions about your treatment, talk with your health care team. For resources on how to manage late-stage colorectal cancer, check out our Guide in the Fight.

Homo cepranensis
|Homo cepranensis
Temporal range: Pleistocene, 0.5–0.35 Ma
|Holotype skull
|Scientific classification
|H. cepranensis
|Binomial name
|†Homo cepranensis
Mallegni et al., 2003
Homo cepranensis is a proposed name for a species of the genus Homo known from only one skull cap discovered in 1994.[1] The fossil was accidentally unearthed in a highway construction project. Although damaged by a bulldozer it was recognized, documented and described by archeologist Italo Biddittu, who happened to be present when the nearly complete hominin calvaria came to light, nicknamed "Argil" by its discoverer[2] and "Ceprano Man" after the nearby town Ceprano in the province of Frosinone, 89 kilometers Southeast of Rome, Italy.[3][4]
The generally morphological robust find shows peculiar characteristics, especially in the frontal bone and has no equivalent in Europe or elsewhere, its taxonomic status has been so far controversial as it differs from the other hominid species H. ergaster, H. erectus, and H. heidelbergensis. The results of morphometric and cladistic analyses and comparisons with other fossils lead to the conclusion that this fossil is a distinct hominid species.[5][6]
The holotype (see image) of Homo cepranenis has a unique combination of morphological features: 1: incomplete sulcus supraorbitalis, 2: frontal tuber weakly developed medially shifted, 3: supraorbital region medially concave, 4: intermediate position of the external auditory meatus in regard to the processus zygomaticus temporalis); 5 and 6 (blue) = more derived traits (i.e. 5: straight torus occipitalis transversus, 6: medio-lateral concavity of the articular tubercle); 7 to 10 (green) = more primitive traits (i.e. 7: petro-tympanic crest orientated downward, 8: opisthocranion coincident with inion, 9: processus retromastoideus, 10: torus angularis parietalis [7]
The fossil was first estimated to be between 700,000 to 900,000 years old determined on the basis of regional correlations and a series of absolute dates.[8] After clarification of its geostratigaphic, biostratigraphic and archaeological relation to the well known and nearby Acheulean site of Fontana Ranuccio, dated to 487,000 +/- 6,000 years, Muttoni et al. suggested that Ceprano is most likely 450,000 years old - the mid of the Middle Pleistocene. Taking the circumstances of the recovery of the fossil into account A. Ascenzi states in 2001: "...given the absence in the sediments containing the cranium of any leucitic remnants of the more recent volcanic activity known in the region—that are referred to the range between 100 and 700 ka and the presence above the cranium itself of a clear stratigraphic unconformity that marks the lowest limit of the sandy leucitic pyroclasts, an age between 800 and 900 ka is at present our best chronological estimate.[sic]"[9]
The cranial features on the bone seem to be intermediate between those found on Homo erectus and those of later species, such as Homo heidelbergensis, that dominated Europe long before Homo neanderthalensis. A 2011 study suggested that it was ancestral to Homo neanderthalensis.[10]
