The Senate Republican who is charged with grilling Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor during her confirmation hearings told USA TODAY's Matt Kelley this morning that she needs to explain a 2001 speech in which she said a "wise Latina woman" might make better judicial decisions than a white man.
"The American people need an answer before she goes on the bench as to exactly what she meant by that," said Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama, the top Republican on the Judiciary Committee.
"It's on its face a troubling statement," Sessions continued. "It goes against the idea of color-blind justice -- blind justice, not just color-blind justice."
Conservatives have seized on the speech Sotomayor delivered at the University of California, Berkeley's law school. In a discussion about discrimination cases, the federal appeals court judge said: "I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life."
Some conservative commentators, such as former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh, have called the statement racist. White House spokesman Robert Gibbs suggested yesterday that the statement was being taken out of context. "I think she's talking about the unique experiences that she has," Gibbs said.
Sessions said that the confirmation hearings will be "a very rigorous examination, but fair."
One reason he wants to give Sotomayor a fair chance to defend herself: Sessions told USA TODAY that he feels he was treated unfairly in 1986, when the Senate Judiciary Committee rejected his nomination by President Ronald Reagan to a federal district bench. Several Justice Department lawyers testified at the time that Sessions, then the U.S. attorney in Mobile, had made racially insensitive comments. Sessions testifed that he never made such comments and that some were taken out of context.
In her 2001 speech, Sotomayor went on to say that "we should not be so myopic as to believe that others of different experiences or backgrounds are incapable of understanding the values and needs of people from a different group."
She continued:
"However, to understand takes time and effort, something that not all people are willing to give. For others, their experiences limit their ability to understand the experiences of others. Other simply do not care. Hence, one must accept the proposition that a difference there will be by the presence of women and people of color on the bench. Personal experiences affect the facts that judges choose to see."

My work featured in Wireframe magazine
Wireframe online magazine is pointing to my past work as an example of an "interesting" way to document error handling in a web application. Click over and check out their site. Lots of other notable examples.
I should clarify that Mark Hines of Chicago established this style featured here, and I had the privilege of working with him back in 2003. I still use many of the techniques I learned while working with him!

I have the Hauppauge HVR-2250 dual tuner card and am watching digital transmissions OTA. I live in the US.
I know what you mean about the glitches shortening the recording. That has happened to me before on other stations where the signal is much weaker. This particular station has its tower only a few miles from my home so the signal is very strong and there aren't any glitches that show up at all. I tried playing the video file in vlc and it stops at the same point as the Myth frontend.
I pulled up this episode online on cbs.com to see what I missed. Not only does the recording end early but it also starts late. I missed about 2:20 of the beginning of the episode and the last 1:00. I don't know if the network was running early that night, but if myth backend actually started recording when it was supposed to that would mean the network was ahead of schedule by 3:30 because it is set to start a minute early. I know they aren't always exactly on time, but my experience has always been that they are within a minute so I'm not sure that that is likely. It looks like the recording both started later than it was supposed to and ended earlier.
To be fair, this doesn't really happen very often. Actually, the last few updates seemed to have cut down on the number of times it happens.
I still find it strange though that some recordings are almost 31 mins and others are almost 30. (Obviously, it doesn't really matter that much because either way the whole show is recorded.) As an example, I have a recording rule set up to record all Family Guy episodes. Yesterday, there were two that came on (both on the same network) and one recorded for 29:57 and the other for 30:55. So the same rule, but different recording times. The 29:57 is probably perfect because it takes the tuner a second or two to lock on the channel. The extra minute on the other recording though is still unexplained.

Weekly Release (PDF)
Closing out the regular season
The CSU Rams will once again travel to the state of California, this time for the final time of the regular season. The Rams will play a WWPA game at Cal State East Bay on Friday night (5 p.m. MT), followed by The Bronco, a four-game, two-day tournament in Santa Clara, Calif. There, CSU will face two ranked teams--No. 8 Hawai'i and No. 17 UC San Diego--in addition to matchups against Santa Clara and Cal State Monterey Bay.
"It's the final tournament entering the WWPA Championships, so like any sport, we want to be at our best at this time of year," associate head coach Mike Moody said. "I think we're in a good place physically, and I think we'll play well this weekend. The other parts are mentally and emotionally, and we need to make sure that we're focusing on the present; we've been through a lot this season, and we need to be focused on the next game, nothing more."
More tournament information can be found here.
Looking for an upper-half finish
Entering the weekend at 2-2 in WWPA play, CSU will finish its conference schedule with three games over the weekend--at Cal State East Bay, vs. UC San Diego and vs. Cal State Monterey Bay. The Rams currently sit in fourth place in the eight-team standings, and with a successful weekend, should finish in the upper half of the WWPA standings.
"Everything's coming together, and this is a great weekend for us to position ourselves for the conference tournament," Moody said. "We know that if we take care of business we can be the No. 4 seed."
The Rams were the No. 4 seed in 2011, their highest-ever placement entering the conference tournament.
On a roll
Freshman Ariel Arcidiacono has scored in all 22 games of her collegiate career. Not only is that the most by a CSU player to begin her career, but it is also the most consecutive games scored in by any Rams player. Arcidiacono passed teammate Shelby Schaefer in the team's most recent tournament.
Schaefer recorded a goal in 18 straight games between April 2012 and March 2013. After not scoring in one game, the senior has scored in 12 straight, which ranks sixth.
Among the best in the West
Three CSU players--Ariel Arcidiacono (sixth), Kelcy Barott (eighth) and Shelby Schaefer (12th)--rank among the top scorers in the WWPA. CSU is the only WWPA school to have three players in the top 12. Additionally, Stephanie Weed ranks 23rd with 24 goals. The foursome account for nearly 83 percent of the team's offensive production.
Not only are those players scoring, but they're also tallying assists for each other. Schaefer (31 assists; tied for fifth) and Arcidiacono (27; tied for eighth) also rank in the league's top 10 for helpers. They are just two of five players to be among the top 10 in both categories, and the only set of teammates.
Despite splitting time in net, Michelle Slagle (139 saves; sixth) and Melissa Fisher (86; ninth) both rank in the top 10 for saves. The WWPA does not keep track of ejections drawn, but Barott has drawn 81 on the season, a program record. The previous high was 60.
All in
Playing 10 games in a nine-day period required Moody to adjust his lineup a bit, allowing some of his bench to get additional playing time. Freshmen Savannah Carroll, Danielle Summers and Alexandra Dolan each saw their first action of the season March 16-17, in addition to Abigail Glennon, also a freshman, receiving extra time in the pool. Glennon and freshman Morgan Hurley recently scored their first collegiate goals.
"Our depth got so much better over the Arizona State Tournament," Moody said. "I have confidence in our depth and our bench now, which is what hurt us early on in the season."
Looking ahead
CSU will host a reunion game on Saturday, April 13, at 1:30 p.m. MT. The game will be held at the Veterans Memorial Aquatic Center, the Rams' home facility in Thornton, Colo. The exhibition game will be the final home contest for the water polo program, and will welcome back many former players.
Two weeks later, CSU will compete in the pinnacle tournament of the season, the WWPA Championships, in Santa Clara, Calif. The Rams are guaranteed three games, with the winner earning an automatic berth to the NCAA Championships.

Dear Family & Friends,
Things moved quickly and in the right direction since I last wrote to you. On Sunday, Barry's hematologist and also the new rotating attending, Steve Coutre, decided to start Barry on a full course (5 doses) of the second chemo he had been given, Fludarabine. Dramatic progress occurred and by Tuesday afternoon, they were able to take the Nasal Gastric tube out. He started eating and drinking (very mild and small amounts) on Wednesday and was released from the hospital yesterday afternoon.
We're very glad to be home after 25 nights in the hospital, although there's a long road ahead. Barry's still very weak. His pain is much reduced and his digestive system is very slowly returning to normal. He will most likely have an abdominal CT Scan in a couple of weeks and then another course of Fludarabine after Thanksgiving.
Absentee ballots arrived today. We were getting worried. If you're in California: Yes on 30, No on 32, Yes on 34, Yes on 37.
As a good friend said:
Go Giants (done), Go Obama (Tuesday), Go Barry (work in progress).
Love to all,

Panthers offense hot, crush Brownsboro 15-6
Posted by : April 13, 2014| On :
Monitor Staff Writer
MABANK-The Mabank Panthers baseball team offense was on a tear Tuesday night, scoring 15 runs in just six innings for a 15-8 victory over the visiting Brownsboro Bears April 8.
Mabank's offense got going early with two runs in the bottom of the first inning to take the early 2-0 lead. The second inning was quiet, but it was the calm before the storm.
Brownsboro got one back in the top of the third to make the score 2-1 but the Panthers bottom half of the inning essentially won the game for them. Eight Mabank runners crossed home plate in the third inning, giving the Panthers a 10-1 lead moving into the fourth inning.
One big inning was not enough for Mabank's offense. The Panthers scored three runs in the bottom of the fourth to bring the score to 13-1. Brownsboro finally found the mark in the fifth inning, scoring four times and avoiding a run-rule defeat. Mabank answered with one run in the bottom of the fifth to bring the score to 14-5.
In the sixth inning both teams scored one run, making the score 15-6. The bats were silent in the seventh and final inning.
Mabank scored 15 runs on 11 hits and three Brownsboro errors. The Bears scored six runs on 10 hits and one Panther error.
Offensively Adam Penix led the way with two runs on two hits and a walk with two RBIs. Parker Johanneson crossed home plate three times on two hits and a walk. Ty Winkelvoss scored two hits for Mabank, while Colt Conway, Kaleb Mandeville, Winkelvoss and Cody Thompson scored two runs each. Nathan Henderson and Pearson Johannesen drove in two RBIs each.
Pitcher Cody Thompson threw seven innings of work, allowing six runs (four earned) on 10 Brownsboro hits, while walking two and striking out four.
The Mabank Panthers baseball team is back in action April 15 at home against Athens. Game time is 6:30.

Is Nupro sold in stores or only online? I waited a bit too long to order a replacement and I would rather find it in store instead of pay for expedited shipping, but I'm not seeing anywhere on their website where you can search for a retailer.

May 10, 2010
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Junior Chris Madden (Lotus, Calif./Ponderosa) of the University of Michigan men's tennis team was named Most Valuable Player for the second straight season on Monday (May 10).
"If the match was on the line and our guys had to pick one person from our team to go out and represent Michigan, they would choose Chris Madden," said head coach Bruce Berque. "We have been able to count on him for three seasons in a row now, both mentally and physically. More often than not, he comes up on the right side of the win column and really has a knack for pulling out matches when it's all on the line. He's played some incredible tennis this year, and receiving this award is probably the biggest complement he can get."
Madden leads the team in singles wins (22) and was nearly flawless in Big Ten action (9-1). He has also earned the clinching point in five matches this season and posted a 17-16 doubles record, with close to all of the matches being played alongside freshman Chris Cha (Eureka, Mo./University of Missouri H.S.) at No. 3.
Madden has won at least 20 singles matches in each of his three seasons at Michigan, holding a career singles record of 66-35 (49-20 in dual matches) and a 26-3 record in Big Ten dual-match play. He is also 66-38 in doubles play, including 48-26 in dual matches.
Madden joins junior Jason Jung (Torrance, Calif./West Torrance) and senior George Navas (Tampa, Fla./Tampa Preparatory) as the other team award winners for the 2009-10 season. Jung was named the team's Most Improved Player, while Navas, the team captain for this season, was given the Leadership Award.
Michigan heads to Columbus, Ohio, on Saturday (May 15) for the first round of the NCAA Championships, where it will face No. 37 Denver at 10 a.m.

When NFL V.P. of officiating Mike Pereira shows up for his retirement party later this year, he might want to make sure someone keeps referee Walt Anderson away from the cake.
During halftime Sunday's NFC title game, FOX's Curt Menefee reported that Pereira has admitted that the second-quarter kickoff by the Cardinals ruled out of bounds by Anderson's crew "probably never was out of bounds."
It's amazing what an impending departure can do to loosen up a guy's jaw.
That said, we disagree with Pereira. The ball changed direction as it appeared to hit Victor Abiamiri's arm.

Yes he had his foot out of bounds as the ball hit his arm, which makes the ball out of bounds.

truwarier says: Jan 18, 2009 4:55 PM
another example of why the nfl officiating & competition committee is such a joke, now there is a rule in which you can't even replay review out of bounds plays, the nfl has too many damn rules, no wonder players are always trying to rebel. Football is simple, you gotta block, tackle, catch, pass. Enough of these rigid rules, this referee debacle ensures tagliabue will never enter the hall of fame, it was under his watch that all these rules were in place.
lionsFTW says: Jan 18, 2009 4:56 PM
Should have been reviewed, and it should have been Arizona ball.
ColdSteelerFan says: Jan 18, 2009 5:01 PM
I think what Pereira was talking about was that the ball itself never went out of bounds, if Menefee quoted him exactly. Now yes, if it does hit the Eagle player while his foot is out of bounds, then it is dead there. But why that play isn't reviewable is beyond me.
leatherneck says: Jan 18, 2009 5:05 PM
It's Arizona's ball only if (1) the ball never went out of bounds, and (2) the Eagle never touched the ball while he was out of bounds. From my comfortable chair in the living room, it looked like Arizona's ball to me.
They're probably going to win anyway. Momentum is with the Cardinals.
TexasStar says: Jan 18, 2009 5:13 PM
The ball was OBVIOUSLY out of bounds, due to the fact that it touched Abiawhatever's arm while his foot was CLEARLY on the white o.b. line. plus, the ref on the field had the perfect angle and was right there for the call.
Wick says: Jan 18, 2009 5:24 PM
Simple: the ball, regardless of whether touched by an in-bounds player at the time of touching, … the BALL on the kickoff did NOT go out of bounds.
Translation: LIVE BALL. Should have been Cards' ball right there.
Cjd1 says: Jan 18, 2009 6:25 PM
@Wick, you have the rule wrong. If the Eagles player has a foot out of bounds when the ball touches his arm, the ball is dead and its Eagles ball there. That was the ruling on the field. There is no evidence that shows the ball did NOT touch the Eagles player (which would be required to overturn it).
The call was correct.
elduderino says: Jan 18, 2009 6:46 PM
The ball didn't touch him. The ball also "reversed direction" when it hit the ground. You can clearly see daylight between the ball and him.
Outsyder says: Jan 18, 2009 6:48 PM
The rule is:
If you establish yourself out of bounds and then touch the ball, it is equal to the ball going out of bounds on its own. Thus, a penalty. It's not debatable. You can complain all you want about the official's call, but he was clearly out of bounds and it touched him.
That's the rule. It's happened several times in the past years, specifically, this year with Leon Washington.
Wick says: Jan 18, 2009 6:49 PM
cjd1 – thing is i never saw player touching ball WITH foot out of bounds — but if that's the case, i can see the other side.
Patscantcheatkharmabitches says: Jan 18, 2009 7:01 PM
The call was wrong but ultimately correct. They did not call that the ball hit his arm while he was out of bounds. They said it hit him and went out of bounds. The result was the same but the call was wrong.
The real issue is why in the F_CK isn't it reviewable. Stupid.
SouthJerseyMaulers says: Jan 18, 2009 7:53 PM
The only way that call on the field was correct was if it hit the Eagles player TWICE. It had to hit him once while he was in bounds, and then again when he was out of bounds. If it only hit him while he was in bounds, then the Cards could recover. If it only hit him while he was standing out of bounds, then it should have been an illegal procedure call against the Cards and the Eagles should have had the ball at the 40. Or if it just went out of bounds first and then bounced back, it would be illegal procedure and the ball would be on the 40.
LuckyCharms says: Jan 18, 2009 8:30 PM
Okay, since it appears most of you guys don't know what you saw or even what the rules are, the ball may or may not have hit Abiamiri. Assuming it did, he was in bounds during both potential touches. The ball also remained in the field of play. This maintains the balls status as in play. The play was not reviewable though it should have been. The only time a play should not be reviewable is when the outcome of that play has been altered, either by an early whistle etc. or when another play has been run.
mnhit55 says: Jan 18, 2009 9:55 PM
I think the play was unreviewable because the back judge threw a flag for free kick out of bounds (because he thought the ball hit the sideline without hitting the Eagles player) and blew it dead PRIOR to the Cardinals recovering.
Once the officials convened and determined that it was not a penalty (because it hit the Eagles player on the way down), they picked up the flag and awarded the ball to the Eagles. This is further confirmed because the officials initially spotted the ball at the 40-yard line before spotting it correctly (or at least in accordance with their final ruling) at the 23-yard line.
As LuckyCharms said, the officials must have determined that the erroneous whistle altered the outcome of the play, so the could not award the ball to the Cards.

For low income families who have a difficult time finding a decent, safe place to live, several government programs are designed to assist them with rent. Millions of low income families across the country live in some kind of subsidized housing, making it more affordable for them to live in neighborhoods near good schools and decent jobs. Families who are eligible for apartment rental assistance must meet certain criteria set out by the government, including proof of income and family size.
Low Income Families
Each year, states provide numbers that determine what is low income for the purpose of setting limits on government aid and assistance. Income limits vary by state, based on the cost of living in each area. Within a state, income limits may vary by region, county or city. A family must earn below the state standard for low income to be considered a low income family and eligible for government assistance with rent.
Privately Owned Subsidized Housing
The US Department of Housing and Urban Development works with private owners of rental properties to provide housing at reduced rents for low-income renters. These subsidies are given to the landlords, who are obligated to certain conditions about to whom they rent. The subsidy amount is generally based on the tenant's income and is meant to bridge the gap between what the tenant is scheduled to pay and the market rental amount of the apartment.
Public Housing
Public housing is property owned and managed by a government entity. The rental units can only be occupied by tenants who meet certain eligibility requirements. Income limits are imposed, so that only those applicants with gross annual incomes below a set level qualify to rent the apartments. Rental rates are quite affordable for those with low or fixed income, such as the elderly and the disabled.
Housing Choice Voucher Program
The Department of Housing and Urban Development manages the housing voucher program known as Section 8. Low income tenants are given a monthly voucher that they can apply to rentals. Landlords agree to set aside a certain amount of rental units for Section 8 tenants. The government provides a guarantee that it will make up the difference between what the tenant can pay and the actual rent.

Order came quickly and reasonable pricing for a product that is very hard to find anymore. Thanks

I had the opportunity to try a sample of this product while on vacation in Florida. The humidity was unbelievable, but this product kept my wavy/curly hair shiny and frizz-free. I will use it from now on when the humidity is high.

In the office of Pebble Creek Apartment Homes we have American Cancer Society "scratch n' give" tickets from April 4 to April 16, 2012. Residents of our apartments in Roanoke, VA can come in and scratch a spot off a ticket and DONATE the amount shown where they scratched off.
If you choose to participate in this donation program for American Cancer Society, each spot scratched on the ticket (and donation along with the amount scratched) will enter you into a drawing to win a WalMart gift card for $25.
Each scratch-off spot's value is $1, $5, $10, $20, or $25. Drawing will be held on April 17, 2012.
Play to give – simply scratch out one or more spots and donate that amount! The more you scratch the more you give while helping the American Cancer Society save more lives. When the card is clear we will be $250 closer to a cure.

hello again,
I cannot for the life of me get the background image to show up.. It loads but when I hit save it vanishes.. the background color wont change either.
I also played with the jQ theme roller, I did get it to work but it whacks out the gallery badly.. also makes the themes nav menu full width and makes my logo sit left. the "documenter style sheet".. the right one to add the jQ custom CSS to?
I assume Im doing something incorrectly. lol I just want a soft beige/light tanish tone to the nav menu and background.
Oh, touch/click on the phone number to call? I played, cant get it to work.. Can a button be used? If so, how to attach the number to click and call?
Really Love the theme, so easy to build. I personally just used a separate WP install, its so cheap to host.. so it made it really easy. Copy, pasted, did a bit of adjusting from the content on my main site. Added a plugin to detect/redirect mobile users. I used this- http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wapple-architect/
Architect>Advanced settings>mobile redirect>Yes>enter URL >save. I didnt adjust one other setting in the plugin… Works beautifully.
You can test it users with the QR code. http://kastylephotography.net/kastylephotographymobile/
Ok, so Im a geek and excited my mobile site is up! Good luck builders!
Thanks again.
Can anyone help me with this – I currently have a desktop theme (Cotton) and when i try to install this mobile theme alongside it if i keep the Home page using the "home page" template in cotton it forces the homepage to be a blog on the mobile (which is strange as the home page is set to static in the settings. ) However if i click on "front page" template on the mobile theme it messes up the front page on the desktop site (adding a sidebar below the slider) but takes me through to the menu i want on the mobile site.
I notice it clashes with one or two other pages also – is this common? I have tried working with wordpress mobile pack and theme switch but to no avail.
is it possible to use two different menus one for a desktop theme and one for a mobile theme? Or is there something i'm missing in the settings here?
Sorry for the slow reply, I have been away and without internet for a while. The best way to do this may just be to have a different wordpress install on a subdomain or similar which you can redirect mobile users to using a simple javascript/php script. This should allow to keep the pages completely separate and avoid clashes. Hope this helps,
I'm trying to edit the css of the theme to be more in-line with the look we are going for but most of the styling is pulling from a style sheet not included with the theme. Located here http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.1.0/jquery.mobile-1.1.0.min.css instead of the style.css file that comes with the theme. How might I go about changing those styles or is this css file located somewhere I haven't found yet?
Sorry for the slow reply, I have been away and without internet for a while. To edit the styles of the theme, the easiest way is to use the jQuery themeroller which can be found here:http://jquerymobile.com/themeroller/
This will generate a custom CSS file for you. I hope this helps,
Oh yup, I meant to post on this yesterday that I found that out through some exploring of the jquery site and yes it is very quick and easy to generate custom css styles through Themeroller. Thanks a ton Tom.
hey, i already bought this theme, If i wanted to make a feedburner account, is it RSS enabled? thanks, it looks great btw.
Sorry for the slow reply, I have been away and without internet for a while. Yes, RSS should work as normal.
Can't get this theme to work. Theme options don't change anything and it doesnt look anything like the demo version by default. Dont buy this until the developers respond to the above issues that everyone is facing.
Sorry for the slow reply, I have been away and without internet for a while. What exact problems are you having? Most people have faced no issues with the theme and everything has worked as expected. Have you got the latest version of WP and set up the theme as described in the docs?
Kind regards,
I still can get my background image to work..
I bought your theme for the mobile version of my website.
When I put a link on a page and try to click on it once it's online, it always return «undefined».
Here is an example : http://www.conceptekilibre.com/mobile/crossfit/ (Click on «Outils» to see the two links». You need a mobile device to see this error.)
Sorry for the slow reply, try adding rel='external' into the anchor tag and this should fix the problem. jQuery mobile treats links differently which is why this is needed.
Thanks !
I try to change theme color but it have 4 choice. I looking in document about http://jquerymobile.com/themeroller/ and I try to use it so it don't work.
Could you help me step by step?
The themeroller is to add your own styling for the jQuery mobile framework. If this is what you want then when you have created the CSS file, just add the styles to the bottom of the styles.css file in the theme folder. For this to work you need to make sure that the the theme letter is 'a' and then use the dark theme.
Otherwise, the 4 colour options in the theme just change the default theme colours.
Kind regards,
^ Same here. Not seeing any reference to the theme colors.

Excellent that worked!
I want to add a secondary menu. I already created the menu in the Wp-Admin and added it to the functions.php file and template-front-page.php However it's not picking up the same CSS styling as the original menu.
Can you help me out with this one?
Have you checked that the HTML markup is exactly the same? As long as it is, it should be styled correctly. What is the problem with it?
Yes, please feel free to send it to the email in the help file and I will have a look. If you could send a link to the page or a screenshot so I can have a look that would be great.
I feel the same way as feelcreative, when I installed the theme, and tried to put a logo and change colors in theme options, nothing seems to get change at all. it doesn't look anything like as the demo.here is the site I'm implementing. http://www.debtlawyer.com/
please give me an advice
dross321, check out the help file that came with the download. There are some minor settings you need to change in wordpress.
Great Travis..thanks.. saw it now.
I want to have two menus on two different template files.
This is what comes with this template;
<?php wp_nav_menu( 'menu=1&container=true&items_wrap=%3$s' ); ?>
How does it know which menu to display?
Getting a lot of trouble with this.
Will this work with buddypress MU and can this support ads?
Hello, I am having some trouble adding adsense code into posts. It will not show up on first load, only after refresh. I guess this is due to ajax load, is there any way around ajax page loading or a way to get these ads to show? Thanks for any help.http://m.chirsbrowntattoo.com
I have 2 urgent questions:
1.) How do I change the top boarder and what is a great size to use for the logo shown here:http://i46.tinypic.com/qye7u1.jpg
2.) Can you send or email me a well working xml file of the demo? The one that comes with it, has a few a pages not working so well for me.

Cannabis use and misuse prevalence among people with psychosis
Green, Bob, Young, Ross, & Kavanagh, David J. (2005) Cannabis use and misuse prevalence among people with psychosis. British Journal of Psychiatry, 187, pp. 306-313.
|Published Version (PDF 229kB)
Background: Increasing attention has been given by researchers to cannabis use in individuals with psychosis. As psychoses are relatively low-prevalence disorders, research has been mostly been restricted to small-scale studies of treatment samples.The reported prevalence estimates obtained from these studies vary widely.
Aims: To provide prevalence estimates based on larger samples and to examine sources of variability in prevalence estimates across studies.
Method: Data from 53 studies of treatment samples and 5 epidemiological studies were analysed.
Results: Based on treatment sample data, prevalence estimates were calculated for current use (23.0%), current misuse (11.3%),12-month use (29.2%),12-month misuse (18.8%), lifetime use (42.1%) and lifetime misuse (22.5%). Epidemiological studies consistently reported higher cannabis use and misuse prevalence in people with psychosis.
Conclusions: The factor most consistently associated with increased odds of cannabis prevalence was specificity of diagnosis. Factors such as consumption patterns and study design merit further consideration.

I Voted!
Tuesday, May 8, was a Primary Election Day in the Great State of Indiana. Thus I fulfilled my sacred, patriotic duty of going to the Polls and making a significant difference.
In this case it was time for all native-born and adopted Hoosiers to help choose the respective nominees for President of the United States. This is an important thing, so we are dutifully informed by the campaigning blitzkrieg.
There was a time in the long-ago B.I. (Before Internet) when a fellow could drop by the local Party HQ (either Party or both) and wait for the results to be posted on a big board. You met a lot of good people, and the food and drink were free. Now I just look for the results are on The Brazil Times website.
It's just as well, that Presidential nominee ship had already sailed. Apparently, as I'd previously perceived, the fix was in. Since I was already in the voting booth I thought I might as well vote for the only guy still competitive. By the way, what is a Ron Paul?
Presidential candidates were not why I went to the trouble of voting, anyhow.
I was there to vote for "My Candidate." Whether you took Republican or Democrat ballot you could have voted for "My Candidate." Couldn't miss him/her, he/she was listed as "No Candidate Filed."
How could you not vote for a Candidate like that?
Never once did "No Candidate Filed" promise something any reasonable person knows can't be done by any one office holder.
There will never be anything in the past of "No Candidate Filed" which can be construed as less than honorable, even if there enemies go back (as they do) to pre-school. There are, after all, always enemies in the other Party no matter what name appears on the ballot.
"No Candidate Filed" never once lied to get into office, will never accumulate personal favors and power, and won't be spending 90% of their time raising money for re-election.
Besides, how could you not vote for anyone smart enough to not get into politics?
Best of all "No Candidate Filed" can't possibly win, so won't be screwing-up anything!
Whatever the results, don't blame me. I voted, but the darn machine wouldn't accept my vote.

Sandra purchased this condo in 2004
We decided to buy this property because of the incredible ocean view it has, the really convenient location-you can walk to everything here and also because we wanted to have really easy access to the best Kihei beaches and amenities such as surf and kayak rentals, great restaurants etc. We have completely gutted the property and remodeled it. There is a great travertine tile in all the rooms, we love the new kitchen with ocean views and it takes just seconds to be by the beautiful pool and brand new barbecues. The building is a concrete construction so it's nice and cool-we just leave our windows open to enjoy the ocean breeze. Kihei is our favorite part of the island because it has the best beaches and weather and you can experience a great mix of people coming to visit and local culture.
This condo is really in the most convenient location in Kihei. You will be very close to amazing beaches, restaurants, stores, markets, bars and surf schools plus you will be right by Kalama Park which offers many benefits.
Aloha Sandra,
The four of us had a wonderful time in Maui staying at your Island Surf condo.
The location is very convenient with the beach across the street with volleyball
courts and surfing lessons, close to costco, shopping and airport etc. My wife
and her cousin enjoyed the kitchen with new fridge, microwave and dishwasher.
The filter water from the fridge was great. The BBQ grills are just a few steps
downstairs and they work really well. We had fun cooking and save $ and time
from going out (if we were staying at hotel instead).
We're really glad we stayed there. We'll definitely recommend to friends and
relatives. Thanks so much.
We just spent nearly 5 weeks at this condo in Island Surf. Sandra was wonderful to work with. Waking up the first morning to the sound of waves and seeing the swaying palm trees brought us immediately to the Aloha Spirit. The condo is walking distance to restaurants, beaches and shopping including groceries (get the Foodland card). It is a short drive to Wailea, Kahului and Lahaina. We pretty much relaxed for the entire vacation enjoying sunsets from the lanai, dinners at the barbeque grills and evening strolls along the shore. We loved Mama's restaurant in Paia on Sandra's suggestion. To top off all the other joys, by the end of November we were watching the whales everyday from the lanai. The Island Surf staff was amazing keeping the facility in order. Thanks Sandra, we loved it!
This was the best vacation I've ever been on!
The condo was exactly as pictured, clean, spacious and the views were breath taking. Eating breakfast one morning in the kitchen, I happened to glance up and look towards the ocean. lucky me the whales were passing by! I could not believe my eyes! Every morning we'd see them from the lanai!
Emeka is great! He offered great advice and was extremely helpful before and during our holiday.
We will definitely return and hopefully one of Emeka's condo's will be available! If you haven't been to Maui, I definitely recommend staying either at the Island surf or Maui Parkshore that he owns! He makes your holiday easy and stress free.
Thanks again Emeka! You truly are one of the good guys!

We enjoyed are stay here. Location is ideal as you can walk to many restaurants. I loved having the beautiful park right across the street to do my morning walk. Even saw a turtle pulled out in the beach one morning. Condo was clean and everything worked. Enjoyed having the beach towels and washer and dryer.
A bit noisy in morning with guy blowing leaves across the street each day and some traffic noise, but not a big deal.
We came to Maui to attend a wedding and we just loved the condo! It was close to the beach, food spots, in the middle of all major tourist attractions, and the view is exactly how it was posted on its listing. The condo was very clean and I loved that we were provided with some beach toys for the kids, and other beach essentials. We look forward to coming back to Maui and staying at this condo again. Love, love, love this place : )
This property had an awesome location in kihei. Walking distance to all the bars, shops, restaurants, and beaches. Great kitchen and it was nice having two bathrooms. The pull out couch was a little janky but it did the job. The washer and dryer was very very small, so it was quite difficult trying to wash all the towels like they ask before you check out at 10 am when you need to use them to shower in the morning. But overall great stay there. Would stay again.
This place was in a perfect location! The place was clean and spacious and provide many amenities. We were in walking distance of anything needed and driving distance of city life. It was perfect. If I could say anything could use improvement is the bed was a little hard. All in all Amazing!!
Right by many famous beaches-Charlie Young, Kamaole 1, Kalama Beach Park the Cove!!! Close to great restaurants, shops and other activities! Located in South Kihei, this brand new, beautifully renovated beachfront condo features easy access to some of Maui's best beaches and activities. Literally a short walk away are Wailea & Makena neighborhoods– known for their prime Golf courses, world famous resorts, incredible dining, shopping & entertainment-you'll always have a world of fun and entertainment nearby.

The Oklahoma Blood Institute (OBI) collected 301 units of blood from donors during the Northwestern Oklahoma State University-Alva drive Oct. 7-8. A total of 21 units were collected during the Northwestern-Enid drive on Oct. 9.
"We truly appreciate the donors and volunteers who took time out of their day to save someone's life," Valerie Curry, OBI Blood Program Consultant, said.
"Northwestern students, faculty and staff are incredibly selfless and do so much good for the community when they donate blood with OBI. We hope to see great success during the next blood drive in December."
Between both Northwestern locations, there were 283 donors. Some donors were able to provide OBI with double units of blood.
Northwestern-Alva will play host to an additional one-day fall blood drive Dec. 3, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., in the Ranger Room.
MISSION STATEMENT: Northwestern Oklahoma State University provides quality educational and cultural opportunities to learners with diverse needs by cultivating ethical leadership and service, critical thinking and fiscal responsibility.

I'm posting for the first time on this board and want to thank all of you for huge inspiration! I've been doing a modified CG for 2 months now and the transformation is amazing. Before I used to only shampoo my hair (no conditioner, nothing) and tie it back while wet. I brushed when dry and then wondered about the massive amount of frizz and crazy no-shape hair.
Here are my before and after (not so good quality) pics. I noticed that like many others I couldn't find one single before photo of me without the hair tied back. Now, with the fairly recent operation letting-the-curls-free i'm more than willing to let my hair down.
The first one is my before picture, the 2nd after 1 week of mod CG. The last 3 pics are 2 months into the mod CG and after a trim + layers.

DIY Automated dosing/topoff
I'm planning to finally order this stuff. Here is the journal that I've written up,
For under $100, you can put together an automated dosing or evaporated water top off system. The system I designed allows me to dose 1mL up to 14mL of fertilizer, into my canister filter line, any day of the week. For a top off system, measure your average evaporation and determine how much R/O water to add using the SP100 cut sheet. I use a simple digital timer, the DT17 (available at HD), to dose (minimum of one minute). The SP100 Peristaltic Pump is available from http://www.aptinstruments.com. I selected the 15 RPM motor that uses 1/16" ID Norprene tubing to dose .9 mL per minute. I could have used silicone to get closer to 1 mL per minute but I was worried about back pressure in my canister filter. I've added a check valve and TEE to feed the fertilizer directly into my canister. The following is a list of adapters that I got from www.ryanherco.com. You can also simply dose the fertilizer straight into the tank.
1/16" tubing neoprene 2'
1/8" tubing neoprene 2'
1/4" tubing neoprene 2'
0706-103 1/8"x1/16" reducing connector
0706-153 1/4"x1/8" reducing connector
5111-0-03 PP tubing check valve 1/4"
0715T-050 1/4"x1/4"x1/2" polyethylene TEE
I spent too much
I don't have it all in yet, the pump arrives Friday, but I clearly just spent too much money trying to do something similar. But getting the timer at Radio Shack, and the peristalic pump and a custom T from http://www.automatedaquariums.com was definately past $100. I feel a bit stupid now.
Can you explain the back pressure concerns on your canister?
And not to harp on a recent subject, but are you planning on putting the T pre, or post canister? And I haven't even stopped to consider questions like how this relatively high concentration of cold fert will affect an in-line heater or CO2 reactor. Gosh, it's all connected.
I can't wait to hear how it turns out - 'cuz I'm trying to figure it out as I go...
Sorry I didn't informed you earlier, you definitely saved me some money. I have back pressure on the Co2 tubing that connects to the reactor. I think its because the glass outlet pipe probably restricts the flow. I'm planning to install the TEE on the intake side (no room left on the outlet side) so I guess there would be no pressure problems. I don't think it really matters either way. I dose so little on my 20 gallon, I don't think it matter where I install the TEE.
The intake side has got to be free of most complications, but there still can be pressure to recon with. I have assumed that there is not enough pressure to worry about, but the check valve from www.ryanherco.com is great! I didn't know where to get a fluid check valve. Looks like a great site! So I may have overpaid for a T that doubles as a check valve, but I'll save money in the future on liguid flow problems using them as a source. Thanks.
All that said, if someone is willing to try it, I'll wager that a peristalic put deals well with the back pressure issue, and will not flow in reverse because of it. I guess the real danger is just something happening to your setup, and draining your tank. Check valve sounds like a necessity, not for pressure, but for safety.
Pls excuse my ignorance. I know the check valve, in the direction you've documented it, will keep water from flowing our of the line if something happens to your dosing setup. But can it also keep fluid from being sucked out of the fert lines?
I did't know a check valve could do that. And even if it won't, the peristolic pump should act like a shut off valve when it is not moving, and not allow anything to flow thru it. In either direction.
I was thinking more about keeping the fertilizer from mixing with the aquarium water. Yeah your right the pump will keep the fluid from flowing, but I figured there had to be some kind of wall to keep from the solutions from mixing. Maybe that wouldn't work?
If we assume the pump will keep the fert out of the water line (sounds like untested agreement on that point), then I would definately want the valve for safety - not finding the tank siphoned off onto the floor.
But it does raise the question of "at what point do you want to separate the fert from the water - keeping it from mixing?" That can be either at the pump, or at a check valve (if used).
Since a "dose" is anything that has left the pump, I would assume thar you would want everything that has left the pump to be in the water. Even if that last bit left in the feed line to the T just seeps in after the pump stops, rather than coming in under pressure. It's still part of the dose.
But to do that you have to eliminate the check valve, raising the safety issue again.
This is a quandry.
My peristalic arrived Friday, a few days ago - spent much time this weekend getting it hooked up. First challenge - verify flow rate. Based on my measures, rather than the vendors posted .5ml/min, it is closer to around .63 +/- .02ml/min.
Learned a few vauable lessons worth passing along...
1) If you get a pump with 1/32" tubing, finding reducing connectors will be hard, and possibly very expensive. Everything appears to get much easier with 1/16" tubing. I had to kludge it with using silicon air tubing as a coupling to larger hose sizes, augmented with super-glue at the point of contact, reinforced with liberal amounts of silicon sealant at the seams.
Lesson - 1/32" tubing does not have readily avilable reducting connectors.
2) 1/32" tubing has an advantageous flip-side - very, very slow water flow. In my case it eliminated the need for a check valve, and the problems that introduced. Sure, I could lose my whole tank. But at the flow rate the tubing accomodates, I figure it would take quite a quite a few weeks!
Lesson - 1/32" tubing can reduce the requirment for a check valve.
I'm sure there will be more lessons still as I try to get the tank settled on a "constant" supply of nutrients, rather than the ups and downs of every other day or so.
I put my auto dosing equipment together last weekend,
Wow, looks good. Might have to try that out myself as a DIY (have an itch towards DIY lately, not sure why). Mind sharing how much the total cost was and amount of time spent piecing it together?
That second shot looks like the bottom of my stand. I've got my light plugged into two of those timers right now.
Great stuff!
It looks like you are dosing from liquid in the Seachem bottle. Is that right? So are you dosing fairly low liguid volumes? Like 5-20 ml/day?
And if so, what's the flow rate on your pump? - I'm assuming your timer works in increments of minutes.
SP100 OEM Fixed Flow Peristaltic $57.00
TubingMaterial: 1G - Norprene, General Purpose $2.00
TubingSize: 016 - 1.6mm(1/16")
TBG023.003 1/16" Norprene $7.00/pk of 10ft
TBG023.007 1/8" Norprene $7.00/pk of 10ft.
TBG023.017 1/4" Norprene $8.00/pk of 10ft
$24 for the timer
$5 for tubing reducers and check valve
You can get clear 1/4 tubing at a hardware store, just as much as you need (better so you can see if the fertilizer has run out). I couldn't find the 1/16 and 1/8 so I had to buy 10 ft worth.
I dose 4mL of flourish every other day.
Flow rate is 1ml per minute. Timer has a min. of 1 minute.
Resurrecting a thread rather starting a new one,
With a three week vacation coming up in August I've decided to jump full in to the auto dosing wagon. After looking at the gravity fed solutions and reading about the inconsistancies in their dosing rates I've decided to go motorized.
I ordered six of the dosing pumps (one each for macros and micros for each of my three tanks). I seem to have gotten into a pretty consistent dosing routing over the past couple of months so I'll be trying to mix up batches of macros to last about a month for each tank. I'll test tank and reevaluate the mix after the month is up. So I'll have at least a month and a half to configure the system before vacation starts.
The auto feeders will arrive next week so I'm fully on my way to automating my day-to-day routines.
Hey Bill, that's great stuff! I love autodosing. Makes things soo easy. Welcome to the club.:proud:
With 6 pumps, you might have to be the honorary president!
Sound's like you got the aquamedics. And they may be very accurate. But I wanted to just let you know that some of these pumps (like mine) do not pump at their rated flows. I believe mine pumps about 25% slower than its rated flow. So you might want to measure it first to confirm the flow rate before you calculate your schedule.
If you'll be dosing everyday, you've got to deal with the "target vs. average" question, and decide what level you want to hit on your ferts. While with a typical dosing schedule you "target" a point to hit when you dose, you go lower than that in between doses. Daily doses allow you to peg a spot and hold it. But the spot you select might not be the same as your old "target".
Good luck! And keep us posted of progress please.

Through the laptop program offered by the school, every student on campus is provided with a computer on which all students move through the modern, digital society in which they live. The students are developing their own new, cyber identities within the increasingly connected world.
With a click of the mouse, they can find themselves connected to a community of people from around the world. Face to face interactions can be held with people from around the world, new, undiscovered information can be found easily and messages can be sent to even the most remote parts of the globe within seconds. Little did they know however, that their freedom would come at a price when they find themselves stumbling into … The Internet.
Threat of hackers and other cybercriminals, frauds and scams, identity theft and copyright infringement constantly plague these young students. The internet provides a wonderful opportunity for learning and developing, however it is important that these kids avoid the dangers and pitfalls commonly found.
How you say?
Here in this time, the internet is a community of people, just as the students are a part of the WSU community. Just as they do in their daily lives, students must protect themselves when surfing the internet.
They must keep an eye out for suspicious activities, be careful about sharing their personal information like credit card and social security numbers and be watchful of the people or organizations that they give this information to. They must also be cautious against clinking on suspicious links or downloading files, that may invite the installation of malware on their computers.
When the dangers and pitfalls are avoided, students like those of Winona State can find themselves successfully becoming apart of this new and expanding culture. This exciting, modern world continues to rapidly become more advanced with the passing of every day, more is yet to come as we continue to stumble deeper into… The Internet.
It's nearly impossible to find experienced people on this subject, however, you seem like you know what you're talking about! Thanks
