Obviously i hav a DPad on mine so i just use that. You could use the Talks navigation via the volume key, so once on the field do a long press of volume down and that should take you in. Eleanor

Sometimes I find it difficult to choose the right CSS selector. Consider this, for example:
<!DOCTYPE html>

<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Which CSS selector</title>
[for="married"] {
outline: 1px solid red;
Name
<input type="text" id="name">
Married
<input type="checkbox" id="married">
I can get the same result with:
I can even give the element an ID and get it directly. But isn't it better to keep your HTML tidier/smaller?
Sure, but within reason. It's no big deal to add a special class where needed, although in this case [for="married"] is fine. Just consider support in older browsers if it matters to you.
never be afraid to use your nogin! if you find that there is more more than one way to skin a cat, then use the one most suited to your goal.
for example.
IDs will taget your element yes, but they cant be repeated and and have some serious CSS heft. On the other hand if you also need to feed that element to a JS.. IDs are pretty handy. So if the element was IN DEED unique to the page OR BETTER YET if you needed the ID anyway for .js then why not take advantage of it in your CSS?
Same deal with the attr selector, unless you are supporting REALLY OLD browser, and you need the 'for' attribute, why not take advantage of it as a CSS selector as well.
Classes are almost ubiquitous solutions ( the only downside being you have to add the class to your mark up)
and descendant selectors are great because, theoretically, they allow you to target elements w/o ANY alteration to your mark up. But the downside to that is that your CSS is now intrinsically tied to your HTML structure; deviate from that structure and you could have a hot mess on your hands. Also, some IE versions registered comments as elements. for example:

<--!IE eats glue-->
I dont eat glue!

p+p>b { display:none;}
Older IE will not honer this rule ; since it sees the comment as an element so there is no p immediately following another p.
hope that helps.
Thanks for the explanation!
What you've got looks good to me, with a class/ID directly on the element if you don't have a handy attribute selector to use. I wouldn't consider any of the other options you've given as appropriate in this case – there are valid use cases for each of those constructions, but they don't fit what you're doing here. Why not? Think about what happens if you re-order the code, or add extra elements.
label:nth-child(3) will always target the third child of a parent when it is a label. That might not match any elements, let alone the right one, if you change your form around.
label:nth-of-type(2) is better because you know it will always hit a label, but you've no guarantee it will be the right one if you decide to shuffle the form round or add an extra question.
#name + label will hit the label following the input with ID of 'name', but again, what happens if you want to add an extra question? You want your CSS to be robust and to survive those kind of changes intact, and there's no reason why it shouldn't be able to if you choose your selectors properly.
etc. is not a valid selector :rofl:
#name + label
Thanks for the advice and good sense of humor!

The country's major newspapers have generated significant readership gains over the past six months, benefiting from strong digital subscriptions, which have offset declines in print.
Enhanced Media Metrics Australia was launched this year by industry body The Readership Works to deliver a single view of audience readership and purchasing intentions across print, mobile and web for newspapers and magazines.
The surveys ending in August and September were distorted by gains due to the federal election, so the comparison between the first survey – for the year ended June 2013 – and the latest, for the 12 months to November 2013, sheds more light on the industry.
"The continuing growth in total audience numbers provides reason for industry optimism for the year ahead," The Newspaper Works chief executive
After six months of surveys, The Sydney Morning Herald remains Australia's most widely read news publication, boosting total monthly readership by 6 per cent to 4.8 million for the 12 months to November 2013, compared with the year ended June.The SMH and The Australian Financial Review are published by
The SMH's monthly web audience surged by 15 per cent to 2.9 million over the six surveys, while print circulation fell by 4 per cent to 2.6 million.
The Financial Review's total monthly readership was steady at 1.35 million, with a 40 per cent surge in web readers to 322,000 and a 6.4 per cent drop in print to just over 1 million.
The Australian, published by News Corp, generated total monthly readership growth of 2 per cent to 3.2 million for the year ended November 2013, compared with the first EMMA survey, and web growth of 36 per cent to 1.2 million. Melbourne's Herald Sun grew total readership by 2.5 per cent to 4.2 million, compared with Sydney's The Daily Telegraph, which experienced a 2.7 per cent gain to 4.1 million readers over the same period.
The two News Corp publications have been jockeying for second place in total readership behind the SMH over the six surveys.

Glad you liked it : ) As for other events, I guess you can't go to Iberanime this weekend since you said you'd be in italy.
The next events will be Anigamix from March 31st to April 3rd, but that one won't be in Lisbon, it'll be at Porto, and I think you have to buy tickets for that one, but I'm not very informed about it since I will not be able to attend that one.
Then there will be Anicomics, possibly in May (I'm not sure if there's a date for it yet), which is supposed to be about comic books but ends up getting focussed in anime xD; unfortunatly last year's anicomics wasn't very interesting since it didn't have any activities to do during the event (tho it did have a cosplay contest and comic book authors), and it was in a really small place so I wouldn't say it's worth going, but ofcourse that's up to you =P oh and I think you have to pay too, but it's a really low price like 3€ (at least last year it was)
For now that's all I know, but I will tell you about more events as they get announced^^

EMU's Vick Receives 2003 Community Luminary Award
YPSILANTI – James Vick, vice president for student affairs at Eastern Michigan University, has been honored by the DTE Energy Foundation and Michigan Nonprofit Association with the 2003 Community Luminary Award.
The award, presented by the Foundation and Association in celebration of DTE's 100th anniversary, was given at a reception Wednesday, Nov. 12, in Detroit.
The award recognizes outstanding leaders and volunteers for their dedication and efforts in contributing to the development of Michigan communities and for inspiring others around them. Vick received $1,000 for Meals on Wheels, the charity of his choice, and a commemorative gift.
For 22 years, Vick has been involved with Ypsilanti's Meals on Wheels, doing everything from delivering meals to the homebound elderly to currently serving as the organization's vice president.
"None of us do what we do in the community for recognition or reward. We do it because we know it's the right thing to do, because it's important work and because we like doing it," said Vick.
The criteria for each nominee's evaluation included the degree of exceptional leadership qualities, contributions to a needed service in the community, the scope of participation, use of creative problem-solving methods, positive results of the activity and degree of difficulty involved.
The Community Luminary Awards are funded by the DTE Energy Foundation, which is dedicated to supporting programs that strengthen the fabric of the communities by developing the potential of their residents, institutions and infrastructure.
The Michigan Nonprofit Association is a nonprofit membership organization dedicated to promoting the awareness and effectiveness of Michigan's nonprofit sector and advancing the cases of volunteerism and philanthropy in the state.
Eastern Michigan University is a public comprehensive university that offers programs in the arts, sciences and professions. EMU prepares students with the intellectual skills and practical experiences to succeed in their career and lives, and to be better citizens.

1 is 2 Fat Weight Loss Guide
Weight Chart look ups & Body fat calculator results are the simplest way to identify your ideal weight & body fat percentage.
There are many ways to decide if you are too fat. You can look in the mirror, listen to friends, use a bathroom scale, tape measure or an old outfit from your ideal weight era.
But the most accurate way is to to check using accurate calculations. Try our body fat calculator or our bmi calculator to see if your perception of your body fat is right.
Body fat calculator methods & at a glance weight chart showing ideal healthy weight for men & women
Here are some other tests that measure body fat. Sorry, you're on your own for these–no whizzy automatic calculators included.
Calipers are used to measure & average folds of skin & fat in places on the body. It's not a precise method - you do need to be very very accurate, you can either go to a professional at a gym, or try it yourself by following our instructions & using our body fat percentage calculator
Electrodes are attached to your hand & foot, a radio-frequency pulse is run through your body to measure water content. That provides a guide to body fat with an error of 2 or 2 1/2%. But anything that affects your hydration, such as exercise or drink before the test can impact results.
So far the very best way of measuring of body-fat is the immersion test, in which you're (as the name suggests) immersed into a pool. It' error rate is just 1 percentage point.
Available at hospitals and a few gyms, but it's very tiring and can last upto 60 minutes
A next generation body fat measuring tool that is precise and painless. You step into a pod, sit for 20 seconds, and that's it. Air displacement, which can be converted to relative fat when weight is factored in is measured.
Early tests show it's equal to immersion.
Found at only a few hospitals and physicians offices, but it's quick and easy

St. Kate's Newswire :: St. Catherine University, St. Paul, MN :: News and Events
St. Kate's welcomes nationally recognized Women's Art Institute
On Oct. 4 at 7 p.m. in the Visual Art Building Lecture Hall, St. Catherine University will officially welcome the Women's Art Institute (WAI) to its new home — with a bang.
"For our inaugural event, we're incredibly grateful to have Gabrielle Civil present her research on black feminist performance artists in the US," says Associate Professor of Art and Art History Patricia Olson, who has co-taught the WAI for the past 13 years with the program's founder, MCAD Professor Elizabeth Erickson. "Gabrielle is an amazing and dynamic artist whose ground-breaking work really captures what we're trying to do with the Women's Art Institute."
Established in 1999 and co-sponsored by St. Catherine University, the Women's Art Institute has been an immersive, three-week summer studio program at MCAD that brings together women artists of various ages and backgrounds to explore questions about their work and its relationship with the community. It is the only program of its kind in the country that offers students college credit.
When Erickson announced last year that she was retiring from MCAD, St. Kate's jumped at the opportunity to bring the nationally recognized program to its Department of Art and Art History. "The Women's Art Institute fits in perfectly with the University's mission to empower women to lead and influence," says Olson, who will take over as director next year and expand the program to four weeks. Erickson will stay on as co-teacher.
Adds Olson: "Though the summer studio program will remain the jewel in the crown of the Institute, the possibilities for growth are endless with the resources and talents at St. Kate's as a backdrop." The Institute will have access to St. Kate's world-class art facilities, lecture halls, and galleries. Olson also hopes to create synergy with various departments and professors to boast the academic offerings of the Institute.
"Our goal has always been to provide women artists the space, time, and community to challenge themselves and each other," says the Institute's Founding Director Elizabeth Erickson. "St. Kate's has a reputation for doing the same—striving for excellence and encouraging its students to be active members of their communities and the world. Moving to St. Kate's feels natural, and we are delighted."
Erickson and Olson have been creating community for quite some time. In 1976, the two artists founded Women's Art Resources of Minnesota (WARM), an arts advocacy organization and gallery. Around the same time, St. Kate's also introduced a feminist art program, inspired by pioneers like Judy Chicago and Miriam Schapiro at the California Institute for the Arts. "The program at St. Kate's was very controversial at the time and it only lasted one year," says Olson. "In a way, bringing the Women's Art Institute to St. Kate's feels like a wonderful way to honor the University's long history of celebrating women artists."
Gabrielle Civil could not agree more.
"Art is not just decorative and it's not just material. Art can be an event of the self," says Civil, who teaches in the English, Women's Studies and Critical Studies in Race and Ethnicity Departments at St. Kate's and is working on a book, Swallow the Fish. "The Women's Art Institute allows women a forum to go deeply into their own work and to use that momentum and synergy to break through to a whole new level. St. Kate's is lucky to have the Women's Art Institute."

The Laos-China Border
In contrast to the Paris-China Border (and if you don't know the reference, get thee to Amazon for a copy of Salinger's Nine Stories post haste), the Laos-China Border is a very real liminal space, one which I traversed this afternoon, partly on foot and partly in the back of a saengthaew, or a truck that's been refitted to carry passengers as well as produce in its nether regions. I had left Beijing on a 7:30am flight on Sunday, sleeping my way across the waking giant to Kunming, the capital of Yunnan province, through which my brother J. and I had passed on our way to Dali and Lijiang back in March. From there I hopped another plane to Jinghong, the capital of Xishuangbanna Prefecture in the very south of the province, verging on both Myanmar and Laos.
Last night I wandered around Jinghong for a bit, but there wasn't really much to see, so I ended up having a quick bite to eat and lingering over the book I was reading instead. (Now, I just need to find a backpacker cafe-cum-bookstore at which to trade it for another, lighter tome.) Then I headed back to my clean but somewhat shabby room–with a leaky sink–at the Jingyong Fandian, a hotel that Lonely Planet had recommended toward the center of town, but which I found pretty lacking. However, I must concede, the room only cost me 60 kuai (about $7.50), and the service was quite friendly.
I awoke this morning at 6am and hiked the 20 minutes up to the main bus station, where I boarded a bus to Mengla. From what I'd read, it was supposed to be near-impossible to get from Jinghong into Laos in the course of a day, due to poorly aligned bus schedules, lacksadaisical border guards on the Lao side, and the like. However, I figured I'd give it a go, since I didn't have any desire to spend a night in Mengla, which promised to be even less interesting and offer even dingier accommodations than Jinghong. I got a seat on the first bus of the day (by bus I mean the small white vans that shuttle rural citizens around the countryside in China, often known by the nickname mienbao because they look like loaves of bread–and because they hold up about as well in case of a crash). It pulled into the long-distance bus station in Mengla just shy of noon; I hopped into a bicycle cart pedaled by a man who kept trying to get me to change money with him–unnecessary, since I had already done a black market deal with some guy standing outside the not-yet-open exchange booths at the Beijing ariport–while taking me to the Number 2 Bus Station. There, I bought a ticket for $2 for the two-hour ride to the border town of Mohan (Boten on the Lao side), took my seat on the bus, and settled in for a jolting ride over roads that switched from paved to dirt every five minutes or so, interrupted by hitchhikers making their way from village to village using the only form of public transportation around–the long-distance buses.
On both sides of the border, officials commented on the obscene number of Chinese visas in my passport. What can I say? Kafka would have had no choice but to write nonfiction if he'd been born Chinese. Despite some hemming and hawing, I was given exit stamps for China and prodded on my way toward Laos. I walked in that direction for a bit until a saengthaew driver convinced me to climb aboard for about a dollar. He wanted to take me all the way to Luang Nam Tha, my day's final destination, but I decided to wait and see what forms of transport were gathered on the other side of Immigration before I committed, even though he'd nicely offered me half of his small piece of delicious citrus fruit (the first thing I'd eaten all day). I purchased a 30-day Lao tourist visa (the default length of stay was 15 days until just recently…now you can stay twice as long for the same amount of money–$35 for Americans, which came out to almost $40 for me since I decided to use up some extraneous Chinese cash instead of tapping into my small hoard of dollars). Then I ended up in another saengthaew in any case, but it turned out to be not a bad way of traveling on a warm day. The open sides of the back of the truck let in quite a refreshing breeze.
After a little more than an hour's drive, we pulled into the bus station at Luang Nam Tha, and I was left with relative locations of guesthouses and restaurants from the meager descriptions in Lonely Planet, but no map, and no linguistic competence. I walked around for a bit, found a guesthouse that looked okay, put my backpack in a room, and went out to get some food. I couldn't seem to find a restaurant for the first 15 minutes or so, but finally I found a place that looked okay, and I asked the waitress to bring me whatever she thought was good from the menu. She decided on khao soi, rice noodles in a slightly spicy broth with small pieces of beef and what I think was buffalo meat, topped with a pile of cilantro, and accompanied by more than half a dozen bottles and jars of sauces and seasonings. I doused mine with the chili sauce and fish sauce, added a splash of "Green Grade Gold Label Seasoning Sauce," a dash of "pepper powder," and a spoonful of chili oil. To that, I threw in some of the greens and string beans the waitress had brought me on a separate plate. The result was deliciously spicy, a harbinger of good meals to come.
After obtaining some nourishment, I walked around and found the main strip, decided to change to a different guesthouse–the recently refurbished Manychan, with a great location, a bustling and pretty good restaurant–and booked a two-day kayaking trip leaving tomorrow morning. We'll kayak on the Nam Tha River tomorrow, spend the night in a traditional home in a Lanten village (I'm sure I'll know more about what that's like when I get back…), and then kayak some more on Wednesday before heading back to Luang Nam Tha. Then I wandered around town for a while, got lost in a residential area and stumbled upon some kids playing soccer and people walking water buffalo and goats (and kids!–of the goatish sort) on strings. Then I grabbed my backpack from the first guesthouse, apologized profusely to the nice woman in charge there with whom I'd conversed earlier in Chinese (our only common tongue), and headed for the comfort of Manychan. I had a quick bite downstairs, my first authentic green papaya salad (tam mak hung in Lao, som tam in Thai) with sticky rice (kao neaw), and then headed over to this nice internet cafe to let the family know I'd arrived safely and, oh yeah, post to my blog. I have some photos (of lunch and dinner, plus a couple random freebies), of course, but I'm going to wait until I have some more before I upload them. Perhaps when I get back from tackling the rapids.
Update (November 15, 9:24pm): I just posted the corresponding photos here, under "Photos from the Border." You can see the growing collection of Laos photos on flickr in my Laos photoset.

Holtan Headlines MIAC Volleyball Awards, Four Gusties Named All-Conference
The Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference announced its 2016 Volleyball Awards on Wednesday and Gustavus took home four All-Conference awards, as well as the top honor of Player-of-the-Year. In just her sophomore campaign, Nora Holtan (Rochester, Minn.) earns MIAC Player-of-the-Year after a stellar season. Lauren Hanson (So., Redwood Falls, Minn.), Brittany Luethmers (So., Prior Lake, Minn.), and Taylor Trautman (Sr., Hutchinson, Minn.) join Holtan on the 2016 All-Conference Team, marking the third time in program history that four Gusties were selected.
Holtan Earns Fourth MIAC Volleyball Setter Of The Week Award
Gustavus star setter Nora Holtan (So., Rochester, Minn.) completed her spectacular regular season by winning her fourth MIAC Setter/Libero-of-the-Week award of the fall. She led her team to a 3-0 win over Hamline and a narrow 3-2 loss to Saint Mary's with 84 assists (10.50 per set), 26 digs, nine kills and three blocks. She had 30 assists, 10 digs, six kills and two blocks against the Pipers, and 54 assists, 16 digs, three kills and a block in a thriller against the Cardinals. Holtan's 9.87 assists-per-set leads the MIAC, and she's the only MIAC setter with more than 1,000 assists (1,115).
Volleyball Falls In Close Five-Set Match At Saint Mary's
The Gustavus volleyball team ended the regular season Saturday with a five-set loss at Saint Mary's. The Gusties lost by set scores of 21-25, 25-21, 23-25, 25-17, 12-15, dropping to 21-7 overall and 9-2 in the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. Gustavus now prepares for the MIAC Playoffs as the No. 2 seed and will host the winner of No. 3 St. Thomas and No. 6 Concordia on Thursday.
Volleyball Wraps Up Regular Season Saturday At Saint Mary's
The Gustavus volleyball team wraps up the regular season Saturday at Saint Mary's University. The Gusties and Cardinals, who have already secured the Nos. 2 and 4 seeds in the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Playoffs, respectively, begin tomorrow's match at 3 p.m. The Gusties enter the contest with a 21-6 overall record and 9-1 mark in the MIAC, while the Cardinals are 23-4 overall and 7-3 in the league.
Volleyball Locks Up No. 2 Seed For MIAC Playoffs, Holtan Reaches 2,000-Assist Mark
The Gustavus volleyball team Wednesday locked up the No. 2 seed and a first round bye in the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Playoffs with a shutout victory over Hamline University. The Gusties defeated the Pipers 25-20, 25-17, 25-23 to improve to 21-6 overall and 9-1 in the MIAC.
Volleyball Travels To Hamline Tonight
The Gustavus volleyball team begins a two-match stretch on the road tonight as it travels to Hamline University for a 7 p.m. Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference bout. The Gusties enter the match with a 20-6 overall record and 8-1 mark in the MIAC, while the Pipers are 11-9 overall and 4-5 in the league. The Gusties have already clinched a spot in the MIAC Playoffs, while the Pipers are on the outside looking in and will try to play spoiler in the seeding battle.
Brittany Luethmers Named MIAC Volleyball Libero Of The Week
Gustavus sophomore defensive specialist Brittany Luethmers (Prior Lake, Minn.) has been a constant on the back line for the Gusties all season long, and that trend continued last week. The sophomore libero averaged 4.86 digs per set (68 total digs) in three matches, while reaching the 1,000-dig mark in her young career with 27 digs in a five-set, come-from-behind victory over Concordia (3-2). She also had 25 digs and 11 assists in a 3-2 win over Buena Vista and 16 digs in a 3-1 MIAC win over Saint Benedict. Luethmers is just the eighth Gustie to record 1,000 digs, and isn't even to the halfway point of her college career.
Volleyball Tops Saint Ben's In Four Sets
The Gustavus volleyball team won its fifth straight Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference match Saturday afternoon, defeating Saint Benedict in four sets 25-21, 25-23, 22-25, 25-15, improving to 20-6 overall and 8-1 in the league.
Volleyball's Impressive Fifth Set Results In 3-2 Victory Over Concordia
After dropping the first two sets Friday night, the Gustavus volleyball team dug deep and rallied for an impressive five-set victory over Concordia College. The Gusties posted a convincing 15-3 win in the fifth set, marking the program's largest margin of victory in the fifth game since rally point scoring debuted in 2001. The win propels the Gusties to 19-6 overall and 7-1 in the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, while the Cobbers fall to 8-15 overall and 4-4 in the league.
Volleyball Hosts Concordia Friday For Senior Night
After playing five non-conference matches, the Gustavus volleyball team returns to Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference play Friday as it takes on Concordia College at Gus Young Court. The Gusties enter the match after escaping with a 3-2 victory over Buena Vista on Tuesday, while the Cobbers were most recently shut out by Colorado College on Saturday. Gustavus is 18-6 overall and 6-1 in the MIAC, while Concordia is 8-14 overall and 4-3 in the MIAC.

By Jeremy Crabtree, Rivals.com
It took a lot longer than we expected, but Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei offensive lineman Khaled Holmes finally ended the recruiting process Saturday and said he will attend USC.
Holmes (6-5, 300) is one of the elite lineman in the West region. He was raised in a Trojan home; his older brother Alex was one of the more popular USC players in recent memory.
USC offered Holmes a scholarship last summer, but he said he wanted to go through the process a little more and make sure he was doing the right thing.
"I committed after the game with UCLA," Holmes said. "I was in the locker room and it just felt right, so I went ahead and did it. I'm very excited about my decision, and my family is very excited as well. USC is a great school and offered me everything I wanted.
"They have a great program with a winning tradition. I love the coaching staff, I'm close with the players, the school is very strong academically and it's close to home — so really it was an easy decision to make."
Holmes had narrowed his choices to USC and Cal after also looking at Notre Dame and Stanford earlier in the year. He played tackle at Mater Dei, but will likely play guard for the Trojans.
Quarterback Ryan Griffin (6-4, 208, 4.8) from West Hills (Calif.) Chaminade had a tough recruiting season, but all's well that ends well. The talented QB took his first visit and decided that Tulane is the place for him.
"New Orleans is a great, and they play in Superdome," Griffin said. "Most importantly, Tulane is a great school academically. I might not be able to get into the school if not for football. Coach Bob Toledo doesn't allow his committed players to take any trips to any other schools, so I'm done with recruiting. I think Tulane's offense fits me perfectly. It is predominantly a two-back, one tight end, pro-style, West Coast offense."

1. Re: error in every form 11guser12231131 Jan 6, 2011 2:57 PM (in response to user12231131)I compile in Forms builder and it's successful. Only in runtime it displays the error. After bumping my head to the wall, i discover that if i remove the trigger WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE he loads correctly but the same error displays whenever i do something else. Could it be that all triggers are shooting this error? Maybe i could try to copy an entire form to a new one created firsthand in 11g and see if it still gives the error no?
Information: I have my forms 6i all built in windows, and i am now builting my 11g in linux. To convert them i use frmplsqlconv and then frmcmp to compile them.

I want to tell you about Blueprint, which we released on Adobe Labs last week and just last night updated to include support for Mac, Windows, Flex Builder 3, and Flash Builder 4.
Blueprint is an innovative code-centric search application, initially delivered as an Eclipse plug-in. It is a custom search tool that searches only for code (for now, it searches just for MXML and ActionScript). So, for example, if you search for DataGrid, it returns a set of code examples that use the Flex DataGrid control. But what's really cool is that you can easily highlight, copy, and paste chunks of code right into your application, all without leaving Flex/Flash Builder.
For more information, see the Blueprint page on Adobe Labs

This would make a great gift for that certain type of person who likes these types of things (know what I mean??) I just feel bad for the fish - can you imagine? "Uh-oh, here he comes again, looks like he's a little sick..."
Another fabulous fishbowl, this one called the Nemo. Cute, fun, functional. But you'll have to keep it clean to look good! Great christmas gift for anyone...even the fish!

Apr 19, 2014 - By Craig Blumenshine, Staff WriterAfter a sub-par performance Thursday at Gillette, the Riverton Wolverines boys soccer team bounced back, got a quick goal at the start of the second half, and one more late, to beat the Evanston Red Devils 2-0 Saturday at Wolverine Field.
Riverton's Class 4-A West record is 4-1 after the first round of conference play while Evanston remains winless in league play at 0-4.
"I thought the boys responded great today after what happened last Thursday," RHS head coach Erly Cornejo said.
Neither team scored in the first half, but just after halftime, senior Marcus Morrison gave Riverton its first goal and the lead for good.
"Tristan (White) played the ball wide to Ryan Axthelm who overlapped and sent in to Marcus who had a great volley," Cornejo said.
The Wolverines defended against Evanston's long ball style of play, especially late in the match after the Red Devils became frustrated with Riverton's defense, Cornejo said.
White, the state's leading scorer, gave Scot Sowards a perfect ball to give Riverton insurance in the 74th minute.
"It was a great finish by Scot to the far post," Cornejo said.
The Wolverines will travel to cross-county Class 3-A rival Lander on Tuesday for a varsity match that is scheduled for 6 p.m., the same time as the Riverton vs. Lander girls varsity game, according to the Riverton High School activities office.
"It is a great rivalry, and we want to keep the trophy," Cornejo said. "Lander will play similar to how Laramie plays. If we have to go though Laramie later in the season, this will be a good opportunity for us to learn. It's a question of if we can be disciplined and patient."
Last year, weather canceled the Riverton vs. Lander soccer game.

Boston • As it seeks investors, a project off the Massachusetts coast that aims to be the nation's first offshore wind farm must reach fast-approaching benchmarks or risk missing out on hundreds of millions in critical funding.
To qualify for a tax credit that would cover a major portion of its capital costs, Cape Wind either must begin construction by Dec. 31 or prove it's incurred tens of millions of dollars in costs by then.
Also, a $200 million investment — the only one of a specific dollar amount Cape Wind has announced — is conditioned on whether developers can fully finance the rest of the project by year's end.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
and received it in November 2012. Now, I have a very complicated personal situation with my husband (he is a citizen, by the way). He wants to divorce me and at the same time, as he says, he wants to "help me out" with my immigration matter because i stayed in this country because of him on the first place. Anyway, lately, he keeps changing his mind and saying that he can't wait up staying married until the second interview (where i will remove the conditions from my green card) because "it's not good for him and it's better to divorce ASAP because someone told him that". Obviously, for me and my paperwork it is better to stay married until I receive the second green card. My question is: from the legal point of view, how can marriage hurt him, considering we're not together anymore?Thanks
It is better that your husband file the divorce. You can still remove the conditions on residency with Form I-751 once the divorce becomes FINAL or before the 2 year expiration. You can file the form yourself without his help. You must prove that the marriage was a bona-fide good-faith marriage and not just for the green-card benefits.
Garmo Law Group, PLLC (Michigan) 248-626-0050. This advice is only general in nature and does not constitute an attorney/client relationship. Speak to an experienced attorney before making decisions.Ask a similar question
Thank you for your response. Will it be better if he files the divorce or if I do it? Thank you
Let him file the divorce not you.
Thank you! Also one more question, you mentioned above that I could file the Form I-751 after the divorce...will I be able to travel outside of the country after filing that form?
Once filed and you have the I-751 receipt notice, travel and employment is authorized for one (1) Year.
What happens after that 1-year-period? Am I not allowed to leave the country? How long does it take to receive an approval/disapproval after filing the form?
Keep proof of your good faith marriage and go ahead and get divorced. He can then help you file the petition to remove condition from your residency. He is right that it is easier to get the condition removed being divorced, than being married but separated.
The above is intended only as general information, and does not constitute legal advice. You must speak with an attorney to discuss your individual case.Ask a similar question
Thank you for your response! It was very helpful. We're in our twenties though, and it will be not easy at all to proof that the marriage was bona fide. Anyway, will HE suffer any inconvenience while still being married? Because this is exactly how he presented me the situation on his part...

"Marco Canora, of Hearth, is very proud of his new spaghetti machine, and so I let him take me for a test drive. There are a few of these machines here and there in New York — Marea has one, and I bet Lincoln does too — but soon all the top spaghetti restaurants will want it. Another step forward in the evolution of spaghetti! And it even has a racing stripe." - Ozersky.tv
"The AEX18 performs incredible! It's a solid machine that doesn't quit. People cannot believe that we produce our own pasta at this volume using such a small machine. I like to think of it as our mascot - people want to come into our kitchen just to see it. It definately gives us an advantage over other restaurants. The machine is very powerful and I am more than happy with it." - Michele Forgione
"The ARCOBALENO AEX-18 is an indispensable workhorse for any restaurant serious about its pasta. The maintenance-free design, reliability and ease of operation assures a consistent and cost effective product with the value addition of essentially paying for itself. The multiplicity of available dies also allows maximum creativity and variety in menu options. It changes the game regarding the cost and quality of pasta in any food service operation." - Shola Olunloyo
"Over the years we have felt reluctant to purchase a commercial pierogi machine. We wanted our pierogies to keep our special hand-made quality. But, Arcobaleno's pierogi machine amazed us. Arcobaleno made a mold for our machine to match our hand made look. When we take a pierogi off the conveyer belt, we can not even tell that a machine made it. It is incredible.
In 3 hours we are able to produce 350 dozen pierogies while we run the machine at 50% capacity. The more Pierogies we make, the more we sell!
We are so happy to have made this purchase. " - The Demchuk's
"Arcobaleno was such a pleasure to work with. I had a nightmare experience with another company when trying to get a fixture for my Gnocchi Machine. Arcobaleno was able to fix the problem and get the part back to me the next day. I tell everyone I come across in the industry about Arcobaleno. They have top notch customer service and a wonderful manufacturing staff that thoroughly tests the machines before they are sent to the cutomers." - John Sarran
"Our experience dealing with Arcobaleno has been extraordinary to say the least. Your technical support, and genuine concern for our business is rarely seen in todays marketplace. The training afforded my team was invaluable, and the trouble shooting CD has come into good use. Brioso values the relationship with your firm and will continue to do business with you as we grow in the future." - Ray Stratford
Uncle Guiseppe's Marketplace in East Meadow, NY makes a huge variety of fresh pasta, daily with just ONE Arcobaleno machine!
"So off to PA we went to visit Arcobaleno, an Italian pasta machine distributor that offers training on the actual machines you buy before you purchase them. Not a bad idea huh? So after making sure we found the one, we welcomed our new baby, affectionately nick-named "Mama Nella," to CropCircle Kitchen." - Leigh & Rachel
Paulie, himself and an Arcobaleno Pasta Extruder are featured in an article in Modern Luxury Magazine!
"If you ever need a referral, please use me. Service is lost in our industry, good purveyors are very rare, Integrity is non-existent. You are one of the very few and I'll be doing business with you for the rest of my career, as well as steering anyone I know to you!"
