Many people have used Subversion to install WordPress or have installed WordPress into its own directory. You can combine these techniques to create a "clean" Subversion installation in which the user's custom files (wp-config.php and wp-content/) are stored outside of the WordPress application directory, so that user files and files under version control never overlap. (Original credit to Sam Bauers for presenting these instructions at WordCampUK.)
In the example below we will use wordpress as the directory for the core WordPress files and wordpress-content for the new location of the wp-content directory; the home directory will be the Document Root (http://example.com). The finished installation will include files in these locations:
/.htaccess /wordpress/ /wordpress/index.php /wordpress-content/ /wp-config.php
There are a few basic steps (explained in detail below):
Create the new location for the core WordPress files to be stored (we will use /wordpress in the examples).
Following the New Install using Subversion instructions, check out (Subversion command co) the stable version of WordPress you have chosen. Do not type the $ characters -- they are just indications of the command prompt. Here is the command (assuming the version you want is 4.8):
$ svn co http://core.svn.wordpress.org/tags/4.8 .
When the download is complete, edit the wp-config.php (see editing wp-config.php) ignoring the Advanced Options and save the file within the root directory (http://example.com/).
Access your blog URL (http://example.com/wordpress) to complete the installation, as in the standard WordPress installation instructions.
Change the Site address to the URL of the home directory. This can be done in the Settings panel or in wp-config.
(This method avoids the error message and is more easily reversible.)
Set the WP_HOME constant in wp-config like so:
define( 'WP_HOME', 'http://example.com' );
Instead of moving WordPress's index.php file into the home directory (as in Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory), we leave it in the application directory and change the mod_rewrite rules to pass requests there.
Set up Permalinks on the Permalinks panel and update your Permalink structure. WordPress will automatically update your .htaccess file if it has the appropriate file permissions. Don't worry if WordPress can't write to your .htaccess file; we will be overwriting the contents anyway.
If the file exists move the .htaccess file from the wordpress directory into the root directory of your site (Blog address).
Open your root directory's .htaccess file in a text editor (or create it if necessary).
Edit the contents of the file to match the following lines, using your directory name for the WordPress core files:
# BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> # Hey-ho let's go! RewriteEngine On # Base is the URL path of the home directory RewriteBase / # Base goes to WordPress RewriteRule ^$ /wordpress/index.php [L] # Skip real files and directories RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d # Otherwise send it to WordPress RewriteRule .* /wordpress/index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress
Edit the .htaccess file permissions to ensure WordPress can't overwrite it.
Note: If working in your development environment on a Windows machine (e.g. using XAMPP), file permissions can be modified by: right-click => Properties => 'Security' tab.
You should now be able to view the site via the root URL (http://example.com).
Create the new location for the wp-content directory (we will use /wordpress-content in our examples).
In that directory create two further directories called plugins and themes.
Edit the wp-config.php adding the following lines:
define('WP_CONTENT_DIR', dirname(__FILE__) . '/wordpress-content'); define('WP_CONTENT_URL', 'http://example.com/wordpress-content');
Create soft links of wp-content/plugins/akismet/ into wordpress-content/plugins/ and wp-content/themes/default/ into wordpress-content/themes/. This will ensure that WordPress uses any SVN updates to the default theme or Akismet plugin. Running XAMPP on a Windows machine, you can follow these instructions for creating symlinks: http://www.inkplant.com/code/how-to-create-a-symbolic-link-in-windows-vista.php

Few events in life can fill you with so many negative emotions such as sadness, a sense of loss, despair, depression, anxiety and hatred like a bitter divorce. Even conscious uncoupling can be deeply unsettling. The first thing to realize is that it is all inside your own head. You may feel a torrent of emotions. But you decide exactly what to do with them, how to manage them and ultimately whether you come out a stronger, more developed, self-actualized person at the end who has experienced a kind of personal growth from this experience, or if you miss that chance due to retaining bitterness. If you are hurling all of this hatred and anger at your spouse, you'll soon realize it's like swallowing poison to murder someone; it hurts you terribly, but the impact on them is limited. Instead, an outlook of yourself both as patient and doctor is sufficient. You have these emotions and now it's time to see how to best tend to them so that you get the best outcome. Your spouse as well may be casting vitriol at you every chance they get. You can't control what happened or how they feel. Nor can you control their behavior. What you can control is your reaction to it, and how much you will let it bother you. There are some simple beliefs you can adopt to help shed your negativity and also protect yourself against your ex's. Here's how to free yourself from post-divorce negativity.
Realize that whatever your spouse says about you is their problem, not yours. Be sure to clear your name. And if they are using the children to spy or as a weapon, make sure to nip that situation in the bud. The children should never be put in the middle. They will suffer for it. But other than that, they will say what they will. You choose how you react to it. Their speech is all about them, not about you. What's more, other people will be watching how you react. Will you be classy all the way, or sink to their level? In the end others judge them for their behavior, and they'll sink themselves. Instead of seeing divorce as an end, which it invariably is, see it as a new beginning. You have freedom to be who you want to be, and discover a whole new you. Your life won't be perfect after divorce, but it is still pretty good and it can be even be better. Make a dream board. Write in a diary. Make a bucket list. Go back to school. Get some more training or try and climb the ladder at work. Invest in a hobby. Take a trip with a friend. There are so many things you can do and so many directions you can take your life in now that your ex isn't weighing you down. There will be good days and bad. If you need to cry it out, do it. It's a healing process and think of it as such. But don't wallow in grief. Know when it's time to pick yourself up and get going again.
Realize that every experience you have in life is another lesson that makes you wiser and therefore a better person in the end. It may not feel like it now but this could be a completely transformative experience for you. Not everything in life is meant to endure. Change can be very scary and it can be hard to say goodbye. Just keep things moving. Make the necessary steps, no matter how small or staggering. Sooner or later you will make it to where you are supposed to be. Sometimes it feels satisfying to take part in divorce drama with your ex. But sooner or later you will understand that it weighs you down far more than it lifts you up. After a divorce you may feel like damaged goods. But the truth is people are judging you far less than you think. Understand that your life and your happiness is ultimately based on your own thinking and no one elses. You can make the world a better place and you can make your life all you want it to be. It's all up to you. For more, pick up a copy of the book, The Rediscovery of Me: Reinventing Life after Divorce by Dr. Marcia Brevard Wynn and Earl Sewell.

Google is making it really hard to get a Nexus phone this year
Google's Nexus might set the bar for Android, but it probably won't be a gift you give or receive this holiday season. After a report Google was discontinuing their Nexus 5, Google confirmed it was still around — just on a sabbatical. Google says the Nexus 5 will be back next year, likely in January. With that, we've got little recourse for actually snapping up a Nexus smartphone right now, since both are out of stock via Google Play. If you were hoping to see a Nexus in someone's hands this year, you might be out of luck.

Clearly, your eyesight is better than hers was when she picked that outfit.
Hey, Yaksman…Natural breasts, especially sizable natural breasts, do have a tendency to sag. It's a fact of life called "gravity." Deal with it or GTFO. She looks amazing.
Add a little Ms Butterworth and that's a threesome in the making.
she has weird boobs..its like they start too high that's why they appear saggy. and yes ladies stop being so sensitive.not everyone has good breasts. not every real breast sags like that, in fact she does not have breasts that big

May 2006
Susi Moser. (Photo
by Carlye Calvin.)
Polls consistently show that Americans tend to see
terrorism as a far greater threat than climate change,
even though many experts view our changing climate
as one of the greatest challenges to civilization.
At a recent ISSE coffee talk, "Climate and Terrorism:
Commonalities and Differences in Societal Response," ISSE's
Susi Moser raised some thought-provoking comparisons
between the two threats and why they are perceived
so differently.
Terrorism, she explained, evokes fear partly because
Americans have been able to conceive of its impacts
clearly since the destruction of the World Trade Center
in 2001. In addition, the "war against terrorism" is
portrayed as an archetypal "us versus them" story—an
identifiable conflict between the United States and
violent extremists.
"It's a very clear story that deeply resonates," Susi
said. "It is almost completely contrary, in that
respect, to climate change."
Americans generally are less concerned over climate
change because the threat is more difficult to imagine,
with the most severe impacts appearing to be far in
the future and in faraway places, she explained. The
public also still assumes that scientists are split
over whether climate change actually poses a threat.
"The one thing that has really settled into the
public's perception is that the scientific community
is deeply divided," she said.
Susi blamed the misconception partly on the media,
which tend to try to balance stories about climate
change with quotes from skeptics. But she also blamed
scientists for failing to adequately communicate the
threat. "As scientists, we've learned to
couch everything in terms of, 'We're not
certain yet.' As soon as we've done that,
we've given the public permission to stop listening," she
Despite such differences, Susi explained that risk
assessment processes for climate change and terrorism
actually have many commonalities. In both cases, researchers
are using sophisticated computer models to run scenarios,
focus on vulnerabilities, and address uncertainties.
They increasingly move their focus from global scenarios
to regional and local impacts and contexts.
Also in both cases, the public appears to be pessimistic
about the federal government's ability to ward
off major impacts. While Americans initially supported
the government's aggressive response to terrorism
and the alleged threat from weapons of mass destruction
even with uncertain intelligence, they are increasingly
unsure whether the response has made the country safer.
By contrast, the public accepted federal hesitation
on climate change because of uncertainties about the
science, but it is now increasingly impatient for action.
As concerns about climate change have grown over the
last few years, a growing number of public policy experts,
such as former U.N. chief weapons inspector Hans Blix
and British science adviser Sir David King, are drawing
comparisons between climate change and terrorism. "You
see the two being linked together," Susi said. "People
warn that climate change is as serious or more serious
a threat than terrorism."
Susi suggested that climate change communicators may
want to take lessons from communications about terrorism.
For example, the language of empowerment appears to
work better than simple appeals to fear. "Without
specific instructions on what to do about the threat," she
said, "without giving people a sense that they
can do something, and that the suggested action actually
solves the problem, people only end up controlling
their fears, not the danger.

Study examines waterflow effect on dams
10/07/09 11:45AM By Nancy Eve Cohen
| Download MP3
(Host) More than 70 large dams on the Connecticut River control the flow of water and they accomplish different goals, such as generating electricity and mitigating the impact of floods.
But a new study on the river is investigating whether water could flow more naturally without hampering these dams.
As part of a collaboration with Northeast public radio stations, Nancy Cohen from WNPR reports on an effort to restore threatened floodplains, an ecosystem that can soften the blow of floods.
(Cohen) Inside the Union Village Dam gatehouse in Thetford, Vermont, hydraulic engineer Greg Hanlon of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers points to two hulks of metal.
(Hanlon) "These two here, they operate 8 foot by 12 foot steel gates that can close off or open the conduit to varying degrees. "
(Cohen) On this fall day the floodgates are open. The water that flows in from a tributary of the Connecticut River flows out. Just like an undammed river. But when there's a threat of flooding the gates are lowered.
(Hanlon) "During the spring when we have downstream concerns or high rain events we would operate these fairly frequently."
(Cohen) The Connecticut River has had its share of floods. After the devastating flood of 1936 the federal government decided to put flood control dams on the river. But besides dams, floodplains form a natural buffer against floods.
Forest ecologist Christian Marx of the Nature Conservancy is pulling a measuring tape around a stout silver maple on a wide floodplain in East Hartford, Connecticut.
(Marx) "So this a nice one. This is 612 centimeters circumference. That could be the biggest one we've found yet."
(Cohen) This tree is more than 20 feet around. As part of a study conducted by the Nature Conservancy and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Marx is trying to figure out where the healthy floodplains are on the Connecticut River and how much water they need. He says when the river floods it carries sediment and nutrients which feed the lush floodplain forests.
(Marx) "All the resources that a tree needs to grow
are really abundant here. And so you get
these really luxurious forests, kind of like a tropical rainforest, big trees,
the herbs in the understory can be as tall as a man."
(Cohen) Marx isn't exaggerating.
I'm walking through six-foot, seven foot high nettles, which usually grow much smaller in my experience. And there was poison ivy, vines and all kinds of stuff.
This kind of no-man's land is good for wildlife. Wood ducks and mergansers nest in tree cavities. Muskrats burrow on the river's edge.
Standing upstream on a bridge over the river in Massachusetts Kim Lutz of the Nature Conservancy says floodplains also benefit humans.
(Lutz) "They are the first buffer when a flood is coming down the river that provides that water storage. It slows down the river and protects human development along river systems."
(Cohen) Many of the floodplains were lost long ago when the major cities on the Connecticut River were built and farm fields were ploughed. Roughly half of the floodplain acreage in the river basin has been lost to development and farms fields, said Lutz.
(Lutz) "Also there are forests that have changed because the flow has changed whereas there might be a forest that's high and dry it used to be a wet forest due to dam management. "
(Cohen) Researchers from the Nature Conservancy and the Army Corps are building a computer model that simulates how all the dams on the river operate now. And whether it's possible to provide more environmental benefits without infringing on human uses like hydro power, recreation and flood control.
(Hanlon) "There's a fine line between flooding a field and flooding a house next to the field, so it's a very tight balancing act."
(Cohen) Hydraulic engineer Greg Hanlon of the army Corps of Engineers says the Corps has already altered the flow of water to benefit the environment.
(Yanlon) "We may be getting to the point that we've done all that we can do without sacrificing our main mission of flood control. Maybe not. And maybe these models will help us push the grey area a little more to the environmental side or maybe not."
(Cohen) Ultimately Hanlon says it's the corps that has to answer to the public in the wake of a flood. But the Nature Conservancy says the ecosystems also deserve an answer.
Note: Tomorrow, we'll have a report about a unique effort to raise public awareness of the Connecticut River's importance to our region.
Northeast environmental coverage is part of NPR's local news initiative. The reporting is funded, in part, by a grant from United Technologies.

The recently refurbished Elizabeth Street annexe, off Melbourne's Bourke Street's Royal Arcade, has snared four new retail tenants. Kliger Wood agent Grant McKenzie said it confirmed the appeal and strength of the relatively small retail spaces in the city's laneways and arcades. The four leases are for three or five years at $2500 per sq m. Shop 46 is leased by Mane Nocte skin and beauty products; Shop 47 Downtown Nails Spa; Shop 48 Metal Couture jeweller; and Shop 49 leased by Mazi fashion retail clothing. Ziggurat homewares at Shop 24 and Habbot ladies fashion footwear at Shop 23 are new tenants in the main thoroughfare of Royal Arcade where the rental rates are higher at $3000 a square metre.
Gold Coast manufacturer Paradise Motor Homes will move from Arundel after securing a highprofile headquarters at the intersection of Brisbane and Pine Ridge roads with Captain Cook Drive, Biggera Waters, on a seven-year lease for $335,220 a year. The 3155 square metre site has a factory, office facility and an area of hardstand on a sought-after northern entry to the Gold Coast.
Aussie Farmers Direct is expanding following a move from its Richmond premises to a new home at Nottinghill in Melbourne's south-east after negotiating terms for a partial lease. The Clayton Road property is the former John Sands facility and includes a 9835 square metre building near the Princes Highway and Monash Freeway. The rent is around $710,000 a year and the seven-year term was negotiated by Savills director Lynton Williams. It is made up of several buildings on a 3.8 hectare site sold for $10 million last year. Part of the site has been flagged for a proposed 2013 office development.
Project management, construction and maintenance contractor Fitzroy Engineering Australia will make a 1294 Lytton Road, Hemmant, Brisbane property its new Australian headquarters after negotiating a three-year lease for around $300,000 a year through Ray White Industrial Milton. The group will relocate from its premises near Lytton to the 3093 square metre office and warehouse site. The property has security fencing and a concrete hardstand allows for easy truck access. Ray White Industrial Milton co-principals Paul Anderson said leasing options of this size near the Port of Brisbane were filling up and there would soon be a supply issue.
Multinational rental equipment company Allcott Hire will take over Altas Copco's premises at 580 Grieve Parade, Brooklyn in Melbourne on a new four-year lease. The 480 square metre Berton Investments-owned property was leased for $323 a square metre through Nick Saunders at Colliers International. The lease began this month. It includes 4000 square metres of heavy duty hardstand, wash bay and above ground fuel bowser.
Suncorp Insurance will take over a Westfield leased property for a new Melbourne training centre for its staff this month. The brand new Westfield Fountain Gate, Narre Warren premises is 785 square metres and was leased for $320 a square metre under a five-year term through Colliers International agent Leah Baxter.
Bankstown Police will move to 66-72 Rickard Road, Bankstown in Sydney, after negotiating a 10-month lease through Nick Saunders of Colliers International. The 1033 square metre property has been leased from Bankstown Council for $320 a square metre from June. The police had been looking for a property since January and only two office options of that size were available.

Squinting through the Redfield scope, he found King, still standing there on the Lorraine balcony.
Redfield heard her coming and met her half-way, and with stately ceremony showed her a seat.
She answered this call hurriedly, thinking at first that it must be Mrs. Redfield.
There it is, thorn-mark and all, by the roadside, and at a stile—going to Redfield—probably to the station.
Only the thought of Redfield and the chief nerved him for the long vigil.
No man knows better the existence of these different currents than Mr. Redfield.
At sunset Redfield returned, bringing with him medicines but no nurse.
Mr. Redfield and Mr. Burleson had been in Congress, but none of them had ever been a conspicuous figure in national politics.
Redfield saw that the crowd was unanimously against him and frowned.
Many storms have been investigated by Mr. Redfield, for the purpose of sustaining his theory.

A BRAND new purpose built languages block is to be built an Evesham school after it was awarded nearly £2 million in funding.
Prince Henry's High School have been celebrating the news it was awarded more than £1.9 million to rebuild its modern foreign languages block.
The cash injection will come from the Academies Capital Maintenance Fund for 2014/15 and see the school create the new building with 12 state of the art classrooms, an enhanced office space, a new ICT server room, a redeveloped new front entrance and a large open space foyer.
And as part of the development the front driveway and walkways around the school will also be improved.
Headteacher Dr Tony Evans said it was what the students deserved.
"The new building will allow our students to learn in an environment they truly deserve and will serve for many generations to come," he said.
"I would like to express my appreciation to my Senior Team and Governing Body for their vision and support with this project.
"In particular I would like to mention my Business Manager, Zoé Smith, for her work in preparing our funding bid.
"I am also grateful to Sir Peter Luff MP for his support with our Capital Maintenance application."
Sir Peter was also delighted with the news of the funding but said there was still more to be done.
"It's a great school but great schooling requires great facilities, so it's great to know this large investment is taking place.
"It's very important to learn new languages as part of our prosperity and for communication with people over seas.
"But there is still more to be done. Prince Henry's needs more money for the sciences and from national funding for teaching. There is much more to be done but this is unreservedly good news."
The news comes just weeks after the school was named as one of only 200 in the country to become a national teaching school.
It was selected by the National College for Teaching and Leadership to take on the position, which is important in raising standards and takes a leading role in recruiting and training new entrants to the profession, identifying leadership potential and providing support for other schools.

MANILA, Philippines — Sensing defeat even before the race has started, incumbent Manila Mayor Alfredo Lim announced that he would not be seeking reelection next year; thus giving way to rumored mayoralty bet and former President Joseph Ejercito Estrada, along with his rumored running mate, incumbent Vice Mayor Isko Moreno.
"We should quit while we're still ahead," said Lim in his statement. "Alam naman natin gaano kalakas ang hatak nyang si kwan, si Erap sa masa, nakita natin yan nung nakaraang eleksyon. Dagdagan mo pa ng isang sidekick na si Isko Moreno, tapos na ang boksing (We all know how strong of an attraction Erap has on the masses, as evidenced by the results of the last election. Add to that a sidekick named Isko Morena, and the boxing match is over)."
Lim made the announcement on the heels of news that Erap bought a house in Sta. Mesa, Manila and was planning to move there on the 12th of this month, in preparation for next year's election.
He (Estrada) said he bought the property from the Legarda clan for P80 million. "Bihira kang makakita ng ganito sa Metro Manila, baka ito lang. Noong nakita ko maraming puno, nain-love ako kaagad," he said.
Estrada admitted that he bought the property as part of his plans to run for mayor of Manila.
Under the law, a mayoral candidate must be a resident of the city or municipality a year before the elections. (from ABS-CBN News)
Not to be outdone, the 82-year-old Lim made another shocking announcement when he revealed that he too has bought a house in San Juan and plans to run for mayor there next year. "May nabili akong bahay dyan sa may a…. Greenhills, may swimming pool at mga puno din (I bought a house somewhere in…. Greenhills, it also has a swimming pool and lots of trees)," narrates Lim. "Malapit lang yung bahay dyan sa ano, atska dun sa kwan. (The house is nearby this and that)."
According to Lim, he plans to move in there as early as next week, so as to comply with the law regarding the residency of a mayoral candidate. "Nailipat na yung rocking chair, kaha de yero at yung arinola kahapon (The rocking chair, steel vault and portable urinal was brought there yesterday)."
"Ipapa-tour ko din kayo dyan sa bahay ko. Aayusin ko lang yung kwan, para hindi nakakahiya sa mga bisita (I'll let you tour my house soon. I just have to fix some things so as not to be embarrassing to guests)," said Mayor.
As of now, Lim still doesn't have a running mate to be his Vice Mayor, but admits that his door is open to anyone. When asked if he was confident about his chances of winning in San Juan, Lim answered with a very confident "yes."
San Juan is known to be the bulwark of the Estrada family.
"He might be confident now, but he might not be so anymore when he finds out who my running mate next year is," said incumbent San Juan Mayor Guia Gomez, winking at this author while holding up an iconic red Hawaiian shirt. Smiling in agreement behind her is San Juan Rep. JV Ejercito.

Sporting a casual style by wearing a T-shirt matched with jeans, the 20-year-old actress hides her lock under a cap when stopping by the Lacoste Pool Party on Sunday, April 18.
The 2010 Coachella summer music festival has been wrapped on Sunday, April 18 and Kristen Stewart did not want to miss the event. The "Twilight" beauty was spotted among celebrities attending the last day of the star-studded event held in Indio, California.
On the picture obtained by Just Jared Jr., she was spotted hitting the Lacoste Pool Party at a private home where DJs Chris Holmes and Ana Calderon entertained partygoers. Looking casual in a black T-shirt paired with jeans, Stewart pulled in her long hair and kept it under a black cap.
Katy Perry and Kate Bosworth, who had come to the festival the day before, once again attended the event. Perry who appeared solo without her boyfriend Russell Brand was seen having a chat with Dita Von Teese for a while before they parted ways.
On the third day of the festival, Lindsay Lohan, Anne Hathaway, Eli Roth, Kate Hudson and Jesse Metcalfe were also seen among the audience. During the weekend, Pixie Geldof and Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine as well as Jason Statham and Isabel Lucas also had a date at the Coachella.

Note: See update in bold below.
On Sunday's Reliable Sources, CNN's Howard Kurtz brought up the scarcity of media attention paid to the revelation that high-profile Democratic Senator Max Baucus nominated his girlfriend to be a U.S. attorney for his home state of Montana, as the CNN host even took to task CNN for ignoring the scandal, calling it a "stunning lapse in judgment," and recounted that he had monitored the news channel on Saturday and did not see Baucus mentioned. Kurtz: "Washington Post has it on page three, New York Times has it on page 33. I watched CNN all day yesterday. I didn't see any mention of this story, which I thought was a stunning lapse in judgment."
When Kurtz questioned why there was so little media attention, guest Chip Reid of CBS News asserted there was "no scandal" in the story. Reid: "I don't think it has legs because there's no sex scandal, and it's not like Vitter. It's not like Ensign. There's no scandal here."
Update: It turns out that CNN increased its attention to the Baucus scandal on Sunday. For more, see "CNN Catches Up On Baucus Scandal & Labels As Dem More Than Other Nets."
Notably, on Saturday, ABC's Good Morning America did not divulge Baucus's party identity in its report on the subject, while reports on CBS's The Early Show, NBC's Today show and the NBC Nightly News did label Baucus as a Democrat.
Below is a transcript of the relevant portion of the Sunday, December 6, Reliable Sources on CNN:
HOWARD KURTZ: Friday night, a new scandal story emerged involving Senator Max Baucus, one of the leading Democrats in the health care debate. Turns out that he recommended to be the U.S. attorney, the top federal prosecutor in his home state of Montana, his girlfriend, a woman who had been on his Senate payroll and suddenly was being, she did not get the job, and she was on this list. And so my question is, I looked at the papers this morning. I'll start with you, Chip. Washington Post has it on page three, New York Times has it on page 33. I watched CNN all day yesterday. I didn't see any mention of this story, which I thought was a stunning lapse in judgment. Why isn't this a bigger story?
CHIP REID, CBS NEWS: Well, I don't think it has legs because there's no sex scandal, and it's not like Vitter. It's not like Ensign. There's no scandal here. There is, and there is a long history-
KURTZ, JUMPING IN: Wait a minute, wait a minute. Baucus was married, okay, he was separated. He has a relationship with a woman on his Senate-
REID: He was beyond separated. His wife wasn't even on his Christmas cards anymore. They were done.
KURTZ: All right, he has this relationship with a woman on his Senate payroll, and he pushes her for a top job in the Justice Department. Why would that not be a scandal?
REID: It's because there's a long history of Senators nominating people they are very close to for U.S. attorney.
KURTZ: "Very close to" is the key phrase.
REID: Yeah, exactly.
DAVID FRUM, FRUMFORUM.COM: It is enormous because the U.S. attorney there is the chief anti-corruption officer in that district. And what are the odds that that anti-corruption officer would ever investigate anything Max Baucus doesn't want to investigate.
MICHELLE COTTLE, NEW REPUBLIC: It's not a story because she didn't get it. If she had gotten it, this would have more legs, but they basically had her voluntarily withdraw from the process once the relationship got more serious or more involved or whatever. I mean, as far as scandals go, there's no hookers, there's no payments, there's no, you know, this doesn't rise to the level of juiciness.
KURTZ: Now you've zeroed in on it. Right. I just think that news organizations that have played this down have left themselves open to charges after the John Ensign story and after the Mark Sanford story that they're a little bit less enthusiastic about Democratic scandals.
COTTLE: Eliot Spitzer? Come on. Eliot is everybody's favorite.
KURTZ: Well, Eliot Spitzer broke the law!
COTTLE: Well, that's it.
FRUM: (UNINTELLIGIBLE) -the Mayflower hotel, he may as well, he might as well done it in Grand Central Station.
KURTZ: There are examples on both sides.

Lift trucks: Central Grocers embraces fuel cells
Grocery co-op switches over to fuel-cell powered lift trucks to drive its fleet's uptime to 98%.
in the NewsPeak season forecast puts Port of Oakland in positive position FTR's Trucking Conditions Index is flat sequentially but remains positive AAR reports annual U.S. carload and intermodal gains for week ending July 15 Supplier Relationship Micro Management June Cass Freight Index report is solid More News
At Central Grocers in Joliet, Ill., it's all about power. Central Grocers, a member-owned cooperative wholesale food distributor, was spending too much time in its 970,000-square-foot DC on battery maintenance issues. So, the distributor, which supplies 200 independent retail grocery stores in Chicagoland and Northwest Indiana, joined a yearlong trial of fuel cell-powered lift trucks.
"Manually changing batteries was quite an ordeal," says John Coari, Central Grocers' vice president of distribution, "and we were only getting about three to four years out of each battery."
Looking to decrease the time spent on non-valued added tasks and increase uptime, Central Grocers incorporated a fuel cell-powered fleet consisting of 234 vehicles. Throughout the year, the company used and tested 51 reach trucks, 38 stand-up counterbalanced units, five sit-down counterbalanced units and 140 center control pallet trucks (Yale Materials Handling Group, YES Equipment and Services, http://www.yeslifts.com). When the year was over, the results showed that the fuel cell-powered lift trucks had an impressive uptime rate of 98%.
In addition to the uptime benefits that fuel cell-powered trucks provide, there's no decrease in power as a battery runs low. The fuel cell-powered units run at full capacity until they need to be refueled. And, with five hydrogen pumping stations located throughout the facility, there's plenty of opportunity to refuel.
Refueling takes between 2 and 3 minutes. Not only is it quick, it's clean and safe. Distilled water, which is the byproduct of the hydrogen fuel cell, is stored in fuel cell and emptied during the refueling process. Because there's no exhaust, fuel cell-powered vehicles are an environmentally friendly solution.
The results of the study were so good that Central Grocers will continue to operate a fuel cell-powered fleet, and Coari says the company has just purchased eight more fuel-cell powered lift trucks.
Fuel cells: The science, study and promise of the newest player in materials handling
These alternative sources of energy on the lift truck scene may prove to be a viable alternative, after a little help.

Three years ago Perfect Location Realty moved into the Macedonian Tribune building that I manage for the Macedonian Patriotic Organization. A fledging real estate company, co-owners Zack Wilson and Justin Geeting brought a youthful vibrancy to a building which had lost most of its tenants to retirement.
A few months after moving in husband Tom and I were invited to Zack's 30th birthday party where we met his parents Rick and Kathy Wilson. Kathy I came to know as an animal lover with a particular fondness of elephants.
Although she doesn't have any conscious memory of it, Kathy feels her love for elephants started when she was one month old. At this young age she was hospitalized for an ear drum infection. While in the hospital she was given an elephant toy to keep her company.
As an adult she admires these gentle giants for their intelligence, the tender care they show their young and their devotion to family. Elephants keen sense of smell and memories are also qualities she appreciates.
Many years ago when her sons were young she had photographs taken of herself with each on top of an elephant. Her home has elephant accessories, the latest an elephant watering can, a gift from her mother. One can only imagine what the trunk does!
Elephant jewelry is a must for this pachyderm fan. An elephant broach and ring are among her favorite pieces.
So what does a young up-and-coming realtor get his mom for Christmas? Why elephant quilts of course. Twice Zack commissioned elephant-theme wall hangings for his mother. The first was made from a comforter from the mid 1950s. The sparsely knotted piece wasn't being held together very well. Its batting a piece of folded fabric could be seen through the quilt blocks; nothing at all childlike about the back fabric.
Taken apart this born again quilt now sports "Golden Book" character fabric on the back including the Saggy Baggy Elephant. Quilted elephants now parade in the top and bottom borders. Mice, an elephant's nemesis, scurry on the narrower inner sash pieces. You can find a photo of this quilt and Zack's comments on his mother's reaction when she received it at www.facebook.com/bornagainquilts/
This past fall I was roaming around Etsy where I found an early 1960's embroidered crib sheet for sale at a reasonable price. More Animals! I purchased this find and showed it to Zack. Not only was it in great shape, it had alternating blocks in need of quilting! It was a pretty shade of blue and I had just the fabric to back it: Saggy Baggy Elephant fabric in blue! Zack was charmed. Hand-quilted elephants now ring the center block. Due to their rectangular shape tall giraffes nibbling at tree leaves are set in the four corners. My fingers flew to get it done in time for Christmas, alas at 2 a.m. Christmas morning I gave up the ghost. A small portion of the border unfinished, giraffes without spots and an elephant label on the back were left undone.
I packed the project into a Christmas box and left a note for Kathy explaining how Santa had a special gift for her to be made by a special elf, but due to NAFTA and overtime regulations it wasn't complete. All she needed to do is give it back to Zack who would deliver it back to Santa's Workshop and the work would be competed.
Now complete, Kathy is thrilled with her two elephant quilts. She loves them both equally even though they are quite different. Kind of like her love for her sons. No wonder she loves elephants so much!
This week Zack and Justin moved out of the TRIBUNE building. Their business and staff have grown and they have found their new "perfect location" at 1416 North Anthony. Best wishes to them.
Lois Eubank is the owner of Born Again Quilts, 124 W. Wayne St.-Upstairs. Don't forget to visit her on Trolley Shopping Saturday, March 31 from 11-4 p.m.

Eating disorders -- such as anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating disorder – include extreme emotions, attitudes, and behaviors surrounding weight and food issues. Eating disorders are serious emotional and physical problems that can have life-threatening consequences for females and males. The most effective and long-lasting treatment for an eating disorder is counseling, coupled with careful attention to medical and nutritional needs. Ideally, this treatment should be tailored to the individual and will vary according to both the severity of the disorder and the patient's particular problems, needs, and strengths.
Kevin Fleming Ph.D.
Coach/Change Agent/Consultant

While most eating disorder issues are treated by cognitive behavioral methodologies or specialized outpatient/inpatient programs, Grey Matters International and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, PhD provide relief first and foremost for the brain of one suffering from an eating disorder----without giving them medication. We believe that the neural circuitries responsible for the compulsive behaviors with eating are not necessarily only a neurotransmitter issue but of overused neural networks that affect the harmonization, balance, and decisions of the whole brain.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Excellent You buy an HDTV of this size for the picture and this one is gorgeous. Blacks are jet-black. Colors are vibrant. Viewing angle is darn near 180 degrees. One reviewer commented on poor sound. With a set like this you really should be using a audio/video receiver and lots of speakers. I never use the TVs speakers so I can not comment on the quality. I have not found any value in the network connectivity. Yes, it works, but the USB wifi adapter sticks out a bit so i pulled it out. I never used it anyway. Wish I could watch HD programming but the price of the headsets makes it impractical. This is my 2nd large screen Panasonic plasma*. Both my kids also bought Panasonic plasma sets based upon our experience and love them. I hope you never stop making them cause they beat LCD hands down. (* The first is still working great after 5 years but I just wanted a larger one.I gave the first to my father who watches it at least 8 hours a day.)

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Excellent TV!!!! This TV has an incredible picture! It is far better than LED DLP it replaces. There are lots of features here including interenet connectivity to a variety of programs including Netflix, Youtube, Facebook, Skype and more. There are a ton of adjustments available for you to fine tune your picture. It's easy to set up and absolutely stunning to look at! I cannot say enough about how clear, smooth, and lifelike everything looks with this TV. Lots of connections including 4-HDMI inputs. The TV speakers are about what you would expect, poor. But why would you not complement such a beautiful picture with awesome sound? I prefer my TV maker to invest in making a great picture and I'll leave the sound up to speaker companies. Not having a proper sound system(stereo or surround) is like putting cheap tires on a Ferrari. I don't use the TV speakers but I did test them out a bit. Great picture only gets better with great sound! I've got great sound, and this TV brings phenomenal picture. Definitely worth checking out IMHO. FYI, I have not tried the 3D. I only use this TV for 2D. I think it is ridiculous to have to buy and wear a special set of glasses to watch TV. 3D is just not for me. I like it in movie theaters, but not for home viewing. This is just my personal preference.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Anonymous from Great Picture, Horrible Sound There are two key aspects to a TV -- picture and sound. The picture on this TV is fantastic. Set up is very easy, but I do recommend you use a picture tuning DVD to get the best picture. This TV offers advanced settings to really fine tune the settings. Viera Connect works great and expedites setup with complimentary products (blu-ray, sound bar). Now the bad part -- the sound is extremely poor for this level of TV. I own 4 panasonic TVs and this by far has the worst sound. There is no balance between the primary sound (e.g. dialogue) and background noise. It is particularly bad in surround mode. Also, the speakers make a vibrating sound at about sound volume of 20+. I assume part of this is a result of the TV being so thin. Plan on buying a sound bar or the experience will definitely be compromised..

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Great TV, but... TV is great, 3D imaging is the best I've seen, the only 2 things I have a problem with is 1) when changing channels it takes a while to load the image 2) for the price we paid for the TV you'd think they could add a pair of 3D glasses. Instead they make you buy them if you want to use the 3D feature. Bad PR, makes Panasonic seem cheap.

How To Guided Tutorials
What should I do if my TV will not turn on and the power indicator LED is not flashing?Follow these troubleshooting steps:
- Make sure your TV's power cord is plugged into an electrical outlet.
- Make sure the electrical outlet the TV is plugged into has power by testing known working device in that outlet.
- After verifying the TV is plugged into a working outlet, try pressing the [POWER] button on the TV instead of the TV remote.
What should I do if the front Power indicator LED light is blinking?1. Unplug the TV's power cord.
2. Unplug all cables.
3. Power the TV using a different power outlet (do not use a power strip or surge protector).
If the problem persists, please consider having the TV serviced. Click here for Panasonic Service Locator.
Note: Count how many times the LED light blinks. This can help a technician troubleshoot the problem.
What should I do if I can access all of the TV apps except Netflix?1. Change the DNS setting of your TV to 126.96.36.199.
2. If you are able to access the Netflix splash screen, use the TV remote to deactivate your account by pressing Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, Up, Up, Up, Up. After this process, try loggin back into the Netflix TV app.
If the procedure is successful a screen will come up with the option to deactivate your device from your account. If not try the process again. Once you have successfully deactivated your device, you will need to activate it by opening Netflix and at the main screen selecting Member Sign In, then following the on screen prompts until activation is complete.
If the Netflix app still fails to open, but all of the other TV apps work, visit help.netflix.com for more support.
What should I do if I have bars displaying on the TV screen?Change the format (aspect ratio) of the picture by pressing the [FORMAT] or [ASPECT] button on the TV's remote control. If you still have bars, check the aspect settings on your external video source, such as Cable/Satellite box, DVD/Blu-ray Disc player, etc. Note: Some content, such as film-based movies, are available in extra-wide format. Top and bottom bars are unavoidable.

Some of the most consistently cold places on earth - for example, Antarctica or
Greenland - are covered with thousands of feet of ice, giving the impression that it
snows a lot there. Actually, these places are better described as "cold deserts."
They get very little snow. It's just that what falls, doesn't melt.
But it's never too cold to snow. Snow can fall at incredibly low temperatures as
long as there's some source of moisture and some way to lift or cool the air.
However, it is tough to get a really heavy snowfall at very low temperatures because
you can't build up much moisture in really cold air.
Of course, there is a limit on how warm it can be to get snow. Think about it this
way. Even in summer, raindrops may have started high in the clouds as snowflakes.
The flakes simply
melted on the way down as they passed through warmer air. It
usually takes at least 1000 feet of above-freezing air to melt snowflakes. But if
the layer of warmer air is thinner than that, the
flakes can survive all the way
down, even if the air temperature right near the ground is in the low 40s. That's
about the upper limit for how warm it can be to still get snow.

Would You Eat A Beer-Filled Donut?
Yep, you read that right: this crazy creation from a place called (fittingly) Psycho Donuts is filled with real beer pastry cream and topped with beer nuts. I'm a huge fan of donuts but I hate beer, so this confection leaves me conflicted. Would you be brave enough to take a bite? [Neatorama]

Pennsylvania turns to lottery for cash
HARRISBURG — The Corbett administration said in announcing that it wants to hire a private lottery manager that Pennsylvania needs a more profitable lottery.
Online is the new frontier for a more lucrative lottery, industry analysts say. For instance, buying tickets for Mega Millions or Lotto drawings in real-time from a home computer is possible in Illinois, but nowhere else in the country.
Many in the industry talk about online lottery games — think social network games such as Angry Birds or ones in Zynga Inc.'s lineup — that can be played on a home computer, tablet or smartphone. There's even technology to allow a home computer user to buy a scratch ticket online and then use a mouse to scratch it off.
"The growth potential is significant," said Angela Wiczek, a spokeswoman for Providence, R.I.-based GTECH Corp., one of the nation's leading lottery systems providers.
Pursuing such steps does not necessarily require hiring a private manager; theoretically, they could be made with the staff in the Department of Revenue. Efforts to extend the Pennsylvania Lottery's reach to the Internet probably would require the Legislature's approval.
Gov. Tom Corbett said he believes that handing the reins of the Pennsylvania Lottery, which has more than $3 billion in annual sales, to a private company will not only boost innovation, but encourage higher cash flow by linking it to the company's compensation.
The move toward online lottery sales came from a Justice Department opinion, made public in December in response to a query by Illinois and New York about whether federal law prevented them from selling lottery tickets online to adults within their states. The department answered that the Wire Act only prevents players from wagering on sports outcomes — other bets are OK.
It was a gift for cash-strapped states looking at long-term liabilities they don't know how to pay for as well as for a lottery and gambling industry that realizes that 20- and 30-somethings don't care much for picking numbers or standing in line to buy lottery tickets, said I. Nelson Rose, a Whittier Law School professor who runs the website, www.gamblingandthelaw.com .
"It opens doors to states doing a very dramatic expansion of online games," Rose said.
Most states, including Pennsylvania, probably would have to change their laws to allow online lottery gambling, and that could get tricky: Lawmakers might not want to be seen expanding gambling, and many states have entrenched commercial casino gambling industries that would oppose such a move, unless they get licenses to operate, say, Internet poker, some say.
But lotteries could have more to offer.
"The next stage is going to be new (online) games, and new games that lotteries are in just as good a position as, and perhaps they're in a better position than, casino operators to invent," said Paul Jason, who produces the online trade journal, Public Gaming Magazine.
The Pennsylvania Lottery could pursue more conventional ways to improve cash flow: introducing keno, which would require legislation, and greatly expanding the number and kinds of lottery retailers. Last fall, for example, Florida became the first state to sell lottery tickets in Wal-Mart stores.
Corbett, a Republican who campaigned on a pledge not to raise taxes, right now isn't saying what kind of expansion, if any, he would support.

January is the month when people set new goals or reaffirm old ones. It's the month when nearly EVERYONE vows to eat healthier and lose weight. I am one of those people.
I have always been on the fluffier side of physically fit. I can say I was happy with my weight about five times in my life - three of those times were just before I became pregnant for each of my boys (obviously my husband appreciated my weight at those times as well!). I love food. I love preparing it, eating it, serving it and giving it. Maybe it's my Italian upbringing... The reason doesn't matter. My love is a fact.
So here I am, working at a company that bakes the most delicious gourmet brownies, chewy cookies and buttery bars I've ever eaten. How to I keep from weighing several hundred pounds? I eat our products in small doses so I don't crave them every day. There are others who work at Fairytale who can eat a whole fudge brownie every day and not gain any weight. I'm not one of them.
I was in Las Vegas last week for a convention. We handed out samples of our products to other company reps so they can recommend us to their clients. One morning, a buff gentleman with arms the size of cannons approached our booth and eyed our fudge brownies. I asked him if he would like to sample a Cream Cheese brownie, but he wrinkled up his nose and said, "I'd rather eat an apple."
I wasn't surprised by his response because his body and body language shouted, "I only eat specific food to fuel this lean, mean machine."
However, I was surprised that he was so angry about his "fruit" choice for a treat. I thought I would lighten up the conversation and said, "Our brownies are baked with natural ingredients. We use imported Belgian dark chocolate... so they are high in antioxidants!"
Buff man rolled his eyes and walked away.
Every now and then, someone will ask me why our brownies aren't low fat or how can we bake such decadence when there are so many obese people in the world. I don't have an answer that will satisfy them. We are talking about dessert - a sweet treat that concludes a meal.
Maybe this is just the fluffy person talking here, but this is what I know: Fudge brownies are an indulgence. They are not low fat; they are not a health food. Fairytale Brownies are free from preservatives and baked with the finest ingredients available. Our brownies, cookies and bars are an occasional treat for people who love chocolate and dessert.
If you prefer an apple, go for it. (I like apples, too. Sometimes I dip mine in caramel sauce!)

Building a new shop was a dream come true for me. I had just moved to the country after years and years in Atlanta. In fact, having a shop was a prime reason for the move — that along with a divorce. I started by shopping around truss manufacturers to see what they had for excess stock. What I found would determine the size of my new shop. I found 25 "room trusses," used for bonus rooms over garages, etc. Mine were 40 feet wide, perfect for my shop with the bonus of an attic upstairs. I used posts and beams to rest the trusses on, then leveled the ground and poured a slab between the posts. I found a good source for cypress nearby.
We had it sheathed in cypress, and I then added plenty of outlets and lights, although lights are rarely used in the daytime because of the acrylic skylights in the steel roof. I put 4 six foot by nine foot doors and a band of clear acrylic to add even more light. The workbench is 30 feet long and I use a rolling table for a lot of glue-ups. I have done construction all during my life but never had a shop or done much furniture making until after my divorce, and then mostly to keep what little sanity I had left. I'm mostly self taught but never shy away from a class. I make all types of projects and like to use heart pine. I'm starting to turn a lot of bowls from green wood.
I forgot to add that I got tired of emptying bags of sawdust and chips so I followed the advice of an old friend and started shooting the sawdust outside the shop wall. I give the sawdust to neighbors for mulch and dog pens.

John Minicuci February 26, 2011 at 11:22pm
Tee Pads were snow blown / shoveled and salted today at both courses.
Barring more snow tonight the courses are ready to play.
Weatherman is calling for snow to accumulate (up to 2") north of M59 so small amounts of snow for the Royal Oak area...
