1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a transmitter for sensing a parameter to be measured and for converting the sensed parameter to an electrical signal representative of such parameter and, more particularly, to a transmitter with the capability of operating from a low voltage power supply and using a relatively small amount of power.
2. Prior Art
Transmitters known in the art sense a parameter and produce an output electrical signal representative of such parameter. Drive voltage of such transmitters has been a concern in the design of such transmitters, as start-up circuitry is difficult at low lift off voltages, but power consumption below the line zero value, for example 4 MA in a 4-20 MA transmitter has not been a significant factor in the design thereof. Such transmitters are often the two wire current transmitter design, where a power supply and series connected load is coupled through two wires to two terminals of such transmitter. A D.C. current which typically is 4-20 MA (milliamperes) is then controlled by the transmitter. Typically 4 MA is consumed by the transmitter electronics.
This invention comprises a transmitter which is driven from a relatively low voltage power supply and which consumes a relatively low quantity of power as compared to known transmitters. Several advantages are derived from such operation, first there is considerable energy savings, in addition to the overall fiscal economies of such energy savings this invention enables a transmitter to be used with a relatively low voltage battery, and such battery may be recharged from a solar or photo voltaic cell using known components and design. Further, having such battery coupled proximate to the transmitter eliminates the requirement of hand wiring two wires from the supply and load to the transmitter, which may be a considerable distance of several miles, at considerable cost, as the signal representative of the parameter may be transmitted by radio signals, VHF, UHF, microwave, using AM, FM or other means using known sampling or polling techniques thus further eliminating the requirement of bringing power supply cables to the transmitter site. Further advantages of the invention are apparent from the disclosure and drawings.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a low power transmitter made according to the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a detailed schematic representation of a modified form of the present invention.
In FIG. 1, a transmitter according to the present invention is shown generally at 10 and a receiver is shown generally at 12. These two devices are shown coupled together by a transmission link 14 which preferably is two wires 16 and 18 which carry a D.C. voltage signal. The transmission link may also comprise a signal conversion-transmission means such as radio, telephone transmission link, microwave, etc. As shown in FIG. 1, an integral power supply 20, preferably a battery, and which may be a solar charged (photovoltaic cell) battery is shown at transmitter 10. Supply 20 may also be located at receiver 12 as shown in connection with FIG. 2 in which case a third wire is included in transmission link 14, and supply 20 at transmitter 10 is then eliminated. In either embodiment the power supply 20 feeds a regulator 24 which provides a regulated voltage for transmitter 10 circuitry. An oscillator 26 provides a time varying voltage to excite the sensing element(s) and rectifier circuit shown at 28 and, in turn the sensing element feeds back a signal through the rectifier circuit to oscillator 26 which controls the time varying output signal therefrom. The sensing element 28, through the rectifier, also provides a D.C. control signal to an output amplifier 30 which provides a zero based D.C. output signal along lines 16 and 18 to a load 32, which as shown in FIG. 1, is external from transmitter 10 and preferably is at receiver 12. The load may be proximate to transmitter 10 if desired.
A further preferred embodiment according to the present invention is shown in FIG. 2. In this embodiment, transmitter 10 according to FIG. 1 is shown with the detailed circuitry thereof. In this embodiment, power supply 20A is shown external to the transmitter 10, but it may also be integral thereto. Power supply 20A is connected to transmitter 10 by a line 22 to a reverse polarity protection diode 50. Diode 50 preferably is a low voltage drop, Schottky diode. A transient protection diode 52A is shown connected from line 22 to line 18. Regulator 24 is coupled to line 22 and line 18 by a pass element 51 which preferably is a field effect transistor having its drain 51D coupled to line 22 and its source 51S connected to line 52. Line 52 is coupled to line 18 through a series connected resistor 54, and voltage reference element 56, which preferably is a zener diode, or stabilized zener diode, thus establishing a reference voltage at a junction 58 of resistor 54 and diode 56. A voltage divider, comprising resistors 60 and 62 and a potentiometer 64, is coupled from line 52 to line 18. The wiper 68 of potentiometer 64 is coupled to one input of an error amplifier 66. This input provides a voltage signal representative of the voltage between lines 52 and 18. A second input to error amplifier 66 is connected to junction 58 and receives the reference voltage signal. Error amplifier 66, based on the signals at its inputs, outputs a signal along a line 70 through resistor 72 to control gate 51G of pass element 51. Resistor 74 protects pass element 51 from static discharge. A capacitor 75 connected from the output of error amplifier 66 to its inverting input provides compensation for regulator 24. Regulated power for error amplifier 66 is coupled thereto by lines 52 and 18.
In one preferred embodiment, error amplifier 66 is an Intersil Inc., 7611 low power operational amplifier programmed for operation at 100 μa (microamperes) by connection of error amplifier 66 to a circuit node A. In operation, pass element 51 permits current to flow when voltage is first applied to line 22, hence current flows through resistor 54 and diode 56 establishing the reference voltage at junction 58. Current also flows through the voltage divider 60 and, based on a comparison of the reference voltage at junction 58 and the voltage at wiper 68, error amplifier 66, responsive to such signals, outputs a signal to gate 51G so that pass element 51 continues to permit current to flow. As the voltage at wiper 68 approaches the reference voltage, the output signal from error amplifier 66 starts to turn off gate 51G to reduce the current in line 52 and thus regulate the voltage from line 52 to line 18.
The sensor and rectification circuitry 79 as disclosed is a grounded capacitive sensor, preferably a sensor having a diaphragm responsive to pressure positioned between two fixed plates thus forming two variable capacitors indicated as C1 and C2. The rectifier comprises a diode network 78 connected to C1 and C2 and the output windings of an oscillator 80. Operation of the oscillator 80 in connection with such a sensor and diode network is fully explained in U.S. Pat. No. 3,646,538 held by the same assignee as the present invention. In this embodiment, an amplifier 90 and resistors 91, 92, 93 and 94 are connected to provide a reference voltage and thus perform the function of zener diodes 46 and 49 and resistors 48 and 49 of FIG. 1 of U.S. Pat. No. 3,646,538. Further, the output of the oscillator control amplifier 96 of present FIG. 2 is provided to the base of a buffer transistor 98 which supplies current for the oscillator circuit under control of amplifier 96. In one embodiment, the reference output voltage of amplifier 90 is 1.6 volts to line 52 and 1.6 volts to line 18 which results in a reduction of the required sensor current for satisfactory operation. With the same values of C1 and C2 as the circuit of U.S. Pat. No. 3,646,538, the sensor current is reduced from approximately 160 μa in the circuit of U.S. Pat. No. 3,646,538 to 80 μa in the circuit of the instant invention. Such reduction considerably reduces the power consumption of the transmitter shown here. Oscillator 80 provides charging and discharging current for the sensor (C1 and C2) substantially in the manner explained in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,271,669 and 3,318,153, which are also incorporated herein by reference. The oscillator output is controlled as a function of the relative values of capacitors C1 and C2 and the charging and discharging currents (or pulses) which pass through the rectification circuitry. The output signal from the sensor, which indicates a change in the parameter measured, is a D.C. signal provided on a line 85. Temperature compensation circuitry 86 is also included. The sensor output signal on line 85, representative of the parameter to be measured, is amplified by a low power consumption output amplifier 100 which has a first input coupled to receive a reference signal, which preferably is provided by a voltage divider between lines 52 and 18. As shown FIG. 2, resistors 102, 104 and 106 form such voltage divider and the first input of amplifier 100 is coupled between resistors 104 and 106. Circuit mode A is formed at the junction of resistors 102 and 104 and node A is coupled to error amplifier 66, amplifier 90 and low power consumption amplifier 100, to select the current consumption of such amplifier. A second input to amplifier 100 is from a current summing node 108, where D.C. filtered current, responsive to the change in capacitance of capacitors C1 and C2 (iC.sbsb.2 -iC.sbsb.1) and a feedback current (ifb) representative of the output of amplifier 100 is provided. The feedback current is provided through resistors 110, 112, 114 and 116, all connected to the output of amplifier 100. A current from the output signal from amplifier 90 is also provided at summing node 108 through a variable resistor 118, which preferably is adjusted to compensate for non-symmetry of the sensor. Responsive to the signals at its inputs, amplifier 100 provides an output voltage signal representative of the parameter to be measured. In a preferred embodiment, this signal is a zero based voltage signal along line 16 referenced to line 18.
Typically two wire current transmitters operate on a 4-20 MA (milliampere) current driven by 12 to 45 VDC (volts direct current), hence consuming 48 to 900 MW (milliwatts). The present transmitter operates from a power supply of less than 10 VDC, and in one embodiment 5 VDC nominal. By lowering the voltage to the oscillator and by eliminating two zener diode reference sources and by providing a single amplifier for such reference to thereby reduce the sensor current; by reducing the power consumption of the other amplifiers; by providing a voltage output to a high impedance load rather than a current output; and by providing an improved voltage regulation means 24, the transmitter of the present invention requires only 1.5 MA. Thus the power consumption is nominally 7.5 MW or minimally a six to one reuduction in power consumption over conventional transmitters. One benefit of such reduction is energy savings, but further, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 the reduction in power consumption significantly extends battery life and permits use of a battery to be recharged using known solar cells. Thus a local or remote zero based two wire output signal may be provided to readout or other equipment as desired.

I know an indictment will toll the Statute of Limitations for the crime indicted for.But does that indictment toll the sol for any unrelated crime also?
An indictment doesn't toll a statute of limitations, per se. If an indictment has been brought with the limitation period, then the statute doesn't need to be tolled because charges were brought. Statutes of limitation deal with the time within which charges can be brought. That time period can be tolled (extended) under certain circumstances. While you'd have to look at the statute you're worried about, if it is unrelated, it probably doesn't toll the Statute of Limitations.Ask a similar question
If this was the best answer, hit "best answer"
I agree with the other attorney, I am not sure how indictment on one offense would effect unrelated offenses.

The Healthy Pregnancy Guide
PDF Document

Cat.: HP5-33/2011E
There was a time when pregnant women were encouraged to avoid physical activity.
Fortunately, attitudes about pregnancy have changed and medical experts now recommend regular physical activity as part of a healthy pregnancy.
If you've been inactive, start with mild activities like walking and swimming. Even five minutes a day will help. Gradually increase the time you're active to 30 minutes a session. Before starting a new physical activity program, you should talk to your doctor.
You should be able to carry on a normal conversation during physical activities. If you're feeling more tired than normal, take it easy and rest for a day.
Drink lots of water before, during and after physical activity to avoid overheating and dehydration. You should also refrain from being active outdoors on overly hot or humid days.
If you're already active, think about how you can modify or replace weight-bearing activities such as running, high-impact aerobics, hiking and tennis with low-impact activities such as walking and swimming as your pregnancy progresses.
Build physical activity into your daily routine. The type of activity you choose is up to you, as long as you feel comfortable doing it and your doctor says it's okay.
Physical activity can make you feel better and be beneficial for both you and your developing baby. The decision to be active during pregnancy may be the first step toward a longlasting healthy way of life for you and your family. Remember to speak with your doctor before you begin and start slowly.
If you were active regularly before becoming pregnant, continue your program and make changes as you need to. Talk to your doctor about your current routine to see if and when you may need to make any adjustments. Most importantly, listen to your body as it changes from one month to the next and only do what feels comfortable for you.
Weight training is generally safe as long as the resistance is light to moderate. Using heavier weights could put too much stress on muscles and ligaments. Proper controlled breathing is also very important. After your fourth month of pregnancy, experts suggest modifying exercises that require lying on your back so they are performed on your side, or while you are standing or sitting.
If you're really tired and you feel like stopping, then it's time to stop. If you still feel tired, give yourself a break for at least a day. Call your doctor if you have any of the following symptoms:

I read about the dealinearize() script function, but I'm not sure if/how it could be scripted to do a whole group of files.

Description: A little masterpiece of exegesis. --Nature An excellent non-technical account of the substance of Gdels celebrated paper. --Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society In 1931 Kurt Godel published his fundamental paper, "On Formally Undecidable Propositions of Principia Mathematica and Related Systems." This revolutionary paper challenged certain basic assumptions underlying much research in mathematics and logic. Godel received public recognition of his work in 1951 when he was awarded the first Albert Einstein Award for achievement in the natural sciencesperhaps the highest award of its kind in the United States. The award committee described his work in mathematical logic as "one of the greatest contributions to the sciences in recent times." However, few mathematicians of the time were equipped to understand the young scholar's complex proof. Ernest Nagel and James Newman provide a readable and accessible explanation to both scholars and non-specialists of the main ideas and broad implications of Godel's discovery. It offers every educated person with a taste for logic and philosophy the chance to understand a previously difficult and inaccessible subject. Marking the 50th anniversary of the original publication of Godel's Proof, New York University Press is proud to publish this special anniversary edition of one of its bestselling and most frequently translated books. With a new introduction by Douglas R. Hofstadter, this book will appeal students, scholars, and professionals in the fields of mathematics, computer science, logic and philosophy, and science.

Framji Minwalla is Assistant Professor of Drama at Dartmouth College. He is currently working on a book about the pedagogy of theater history.Born in Czechoslovakia, Ernest Nagel emigrated to the United States and became a naturalized American citizen. In 1923 he graduated from the City College of New York, where he had studied under Morris Cohen, with whom he later collaborated to coauthor the highly successful textbook, An Introduction to Logic and Scientific Method (1934). Pursuing graduate studies at Columbia University, he received his Ph.D. in 1930. After a year of teaching at the City College of New York, he joined the faculty of Columbia University, where in 1955 he was named John Dewey Professor of Philosophy. In 1966 he joined the faculty of Rockefeller University. Nagel was one of the leaders in the movement of logical empiricism, conjoining Viennese positivism with indigenous American naturalism and pragmatism. In 1936 he published in the Journal of Philosophy the article "Impressions and Appraisals of Analytic Philosophy," one of the earliest sympathetic accounts of the works of Ludwig Wittgenstein, Moritz Schlick, and Rudolf Carnap intended for an American audience. Nagel was esteemed for his lucid exposition of the most recondite matters in logic, mathematics, and natural science, published in essays and book reviews for professional journals, scientific periodicals, and literary reviews. Two of his books, now out of print, consisted of collections of his articles, Sovereign Reason and Other Studies in the Philosophy of Science (1954) and Logic Without Metaphysics and Other Essays in the Philosophy of Science (1957). He also wrote a monograph, Principles of the Theory of Probability (1939) which appeared in the International Encyclopedia of Unified Science. In his major book-length work, The Structure of Science, Nagel directed his attention to the logic of scientific explanations.
James R. Newman was the author of What is Science.

Jose Iglesias spoke two languages when he defected from Cuba in 2008: Spanish and baseball.
Over the last four years, Iglesias has challenged himself to become fluent in English as well. It is just as much of a priority as it is to become part of the Boston Red Sox.
The 22-year-old shortstop sees the two going hand-in-hand. He believes better communication can lead to better play on the field.
Its good for me, for my career, for my development, for my communication with my teammates. I live here in the United States so I have to speak in English, Iglesias said. It was a little difficult in the beginning because you cant communicate really well with your teammates. But its a process. Right now I feel better, I can talk a little bit with my teammates, were hanging out a little more.
This spring training, Iglesias was noticeably more comfortable speaking English than he was at the end of last season. Rather than sitting at his locker and watching conversations from afar, he approached his teammates to be part of the chatter.
Engaging in small talk is just one way Iglesias works on improving his English. During the offseason he also exchanged text messages with his teammates and went to the movies to see English-language films (comedies are his favorite). He jokes that his winter home of Miami is the worst place to learn a second language because Spanish is widely spoken, but he makes it a point to speak in English there as much as possible.
Iglesias teammates have taken notice to the improvement in his communication during the offseason.
Hes a very smart kid and hes willing to learn, said shortstop Mike Aviles. Not just in baseball, but in the transition from Cuba to here in America. That alone, he has that drive on the inside of him that helps him get better at everything and I think thats a big part of it. I know he can communicate very well in the Spanish language and it kind of maybe bothers him to not be able to communicate like he wants to in English. I think that little bit of bother is what drives him to pick up the language and actually try harder. Hes done an unbelievable job.
In all honesty, sometimes a lot of guys are timid to step outside the box and in his case hes not shy at all. Hes a very outgoing person and if you get to know him in his native language, you can tell how outgoing and energetic he is. He wants to be the same person that he is speaking Spanish as he is speaking English. I think thats the big drive behind all of it for him.
For second baseman Dustin Pedroia, communicating with Iglesias is critical to their success together on the field. He praised Iglesias for wanting to learn English early on in his career.
When he signed, he roomed with Nate Spears, said Pedroia. A lot of times when guys come over here, they room with Latin guys so they can feel more comfortable. But Iggy wanted to make sure that he started learning English right away. Its good for him. Its smart . . . I need him to speak English because I dont speak Spanish. But hes learning, hes doing a great job. Hes still young. Hes learning every day.
When it comes to his bilingual teammates, Iglesias speaks to them in English instead of relying on their common understanding of Spanish. Aviles, who is of Puerto Rican descent, noted Iglesias is not afraid to ask questions to further his learning.
Its kind of like an exchange program, said Aviles. Sometimes my Spanish doesnt quite come out the way I want it and hell help me with it. And theres times, too, when he wants to say something in English and Ill explain, you say it like this, and hes like, 'All right, cool.'
I always come back with random one-liners when people say things to me, like sarcasm, and so he was asking me about that the other day. He said, Youve got to help me with some of the sarcasm stuff. That willingness to learn, in that sense, hes like that on the field and off the field. I think thats a big part of his development.
Iglesias will start this season in Triple-A Pawtucket but is expected to see playing time at Fenway Park. With a place on the team would come an increase in media exposure. Iglesias is aware of the importance in being able to communicate effectively with reporters.
We are on a special team and in a special media, he said. We have a lot of media here so you have to get better in your language because you have to be able to communicate, to say the right thing in the right moment. But I think I feel good with that. Im doing better. Not 100 percent, not perfect, but better.
In the meantime, he has tried to share some of his native language with his teammates.
Pedroia sometimes says some words like, Im youre papa, Iglesias said, smiling. I try to teach him a couple words, but no chance (laughs).
No matter which language he says it in, Pedroia and his Red Sox teammates are happy with the improvements they have seen in the young shortstop.
He wants to be good, said Pedroia. He wants to be great. You pull for guys who work that hard. Some guys just have to work hard on the field. He has to work hard off the field just to learn stuff. So were all pulling for him.

Frequently Asked Questions
The ZEAL Pro demo features an entire library of how-to content to make setting up your theme a breeze. These articles are all posted on the demo blog. They're based on the theme documentation, but are broken down to make finding what you're looking for faster and easier.
The ZEAL Pro demo itself is also full of examples with instructions, so take some time to read the descriptions in the specific features you're trying to configure. If anything isn't working for you, feel free to reach out to us in support.
The area below the Icon Callouts and Widgets on your homepage is called "The Front Page." Your Front page can either be static (eg. display the content of a regular, unchanging page) or serve as the feed where your latest posts appear on the site. This is a standard feature of all WordPress themes.
If you don't have any content loaded into the Front Page, you'll see either a blank white bar or the message "There are no posts to display." You can fix this quickly and easily by setting content to display here.
If you want Athena's front page to update regularly with the latest content from your blog, go to
Customize > Frontpage > Static Front Page. For Front Page display, select Your Recent Posts.
Your latest posts will appear below the Jumbotron and Icon Callouts on the homepage.
Once you've published your first post, the message "There are no posts to display" will disappear.
If you'd rather have your Athena Front page remain consistent, select A Static Front Page instead.
You can choose the specific pages you want to set as your Post Page or your Front Page in the WordPress Dashboard, under Settings > Reading. (If you're just getting started, you'll need to first create these Pages under Pages > Add New in your WordPress dashboard, before they're available to select.)
In your Athena Customizer, go to
Appearance > Blog Layout
You'll find the options to disable the post author and date on the blog page here.
If you also wish to disable them in the individual posts, go to
Appearance > Single Layout.
The Athena Pro theme accommodates a logo with a max-height of 75px.
If your logo appears very small on mobile, its likely that you've uploaded a file with dimensions that are too large. Double check the logo dimensions. Delete the media file, resize on your computer and reupload if necessary.
If your logo appears too large and cut off on mobile pages other than the frontpage, try adding the CSS rule to your site:
@media ( max-width: 991px ) {
#athena-logo img {
max-height: 50px;
#athena-logo {
line-height: 50px;
You can paste this rule into a field in the Athena customizer, under Extras > Custom CSS.
Go to Appearance > Customize > Jumbotron and then navigate into the settings for the slide you want to remove.
Delete all the data. Remove the image, delete the Header Text, Button Text and Button URLs.
Click Save & Publish, then close the customizer and refresh your homepage.
If you're still not seeing the changes, force-refresh your browser a few times. If you're using a caching plugin, make sure to flush the cache, clear your browser cache, and force refresh your website a few times.
Your Jumbotron or home slider's load time is strongly dependent on the size of the images files you've loaded into it. If you're finding there is a long delay for the slider to appear as the page loads, double check your file size under Media in the WordPress dashboard. Images size should be listed in KB, never in MB.
If your image is too large, resize the file on your computer using your default image editing software. Double check that the horizontal length is not greater than 1423px, and that you choose a web-appropriate image quality when you export the photo after editing.
Once you've made these changes, replace the image you have in your WordPress media directory, and delete the original file.
You can modify the colour of the text on the Jumbotron by adding this CSS rule to your site.
#athena-jumbotron h2.header-text {
color: #XXXXXX;
Replace the Xs with the hexidecimal color value of your choice. You can find a good resource of hexidecimal colors here. Make sure not to overwrite the # or ; symbols in the code.
If you're using Athena Pro V 1.002 or later, there's a field where you can paste this rule in the Customizer, under Extras Copy and paste, replace your color value, save and refresh the site to see the changes.
If you're on an earlier version of Athena, we recommend the free Simple Custom CSS to add this rule your site. The updated version of Athena Pro will be circulated to existing users during the week of April 17th, 2015, with instructions on how to update.
You can center align the footer menu in Athena Pro by adding the following CSS rule to the site:
ul#footer-menu {
padding-left: 0;
margin-left: 0;
If you are using Athena Version 1.002 or later, navigate to Customize > Extras > Custom CSS and paste this rule into the CSS field. Save your changes, close the customizer and refresh your homepage to see the changes.
If you are using an older version of Athena Pro, you'll be receiving a software update from the Smartcat team shortly. In the mean time, you can add this rule by installing a free CSS editing plugin. We recommend Simple Custom CSS, available in the WordPress plugin directory.
ATHENA PRO – I just activated my licence key. A message below the key says it will expire today. What do I have to do?
Nothing. You can ignore this message completely. Your licence will not expire.
You can view the Athena Pro documentation here. Alternatively, fill out a support request on our Get Support page requesting a PDF, and Sam in support will email it to you.
You can also find lots of handy tips and information in this Athena article, in our Tutorials section.
ATHENA PRO – I've activated the Athena Pro theme, but I still have the free settings in my dashboard and customizer. Why don't I have the new features?
In addition to activating the Athena Pro theme in WordPress, make sure you activate your Athena Pro licence. In the WordPress dashboard, go to Appearance > Athena Licence. Your licence key is in the email confirmation you received from Smartcat immediately following your purchase. Paste it into the licence field, click "Activate" and "Save Changes."
Refresh your WordPress dashboard, and then Athena Pro features will now be loaded.
The Athena Pro primary navigation features white text, sitting on a grey overlay on the Frontpage, and a black bar in Pages and Posts.
The menu supports a limited number of characters, plus your logo, to render properly. If you try adding too many pages to the primary navigation, or have a logo with a big horizontal length, then all the text in your menu is going to get bumped down, to appear inline below the menu. If your pages are white, then the white-on-white text will disappear completely.
This is usually a very easy issue to resolve. It just requires reducing the character count in your primary menu. You can do this by:
- Look for longer menu items that you can shorten. Eg. Change "Schedule of Events" to "Schedule" or "Events"
- Group related pages together under as submenus. For example put "Contact" and or "Our History" under "About Us".
For more information on managing menus in WordPress in general, check out the WordPress Menu User Guide.
The date usually comes from your theme's single.php file. If you remove the code snippet from your single.php file, the date will also be removed from your Posts.
Alternatively, you can use the Custom Template included in the plugin, which you can select from the plugin settings.
Image size should have an aspect ratio of 1:1 (ie. be square.) We recommend 400×400 or 300×300. Make sure all your images are the same size.
To resolve this issue, simply update the Permalinks on your site.
In your WordPress dashboard, go to "Settings" > "Permalinks". Scroll to the bottom of the page and click "Save."
Try clicking on your Team Member again. It's as easy as that!
Our Team Showcase supports the ability to add Featured Images. However if you're unable to utilize this feature, its likely the WordPress theme you're using does not, and is overriding the plugin function.
While most WordPress themes allow for featured images, some restrict it to Single Post types, and not Custom-Post-Types, as employed by the plugin.
To resolve this issue, please edit your theme's functions.php file and add this code to it:
Warning: If you are not comfortable editing PHP files, please do not attempt this. Any mistake you make could create larger issues on your site. You'll want to enlist the services of a PHP developer to take of this for you.
function my_custom_theme_setup() {
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'my_custom_theme_setup' );
Once you have uploaded and activated Ares Pro, a new menu appears in your WordPress dashboard called "Ares Pro".
Go to the Ares Pro menu and click on "Import Now." This action will copy all your settings from Ares to Ares Pro. When you visit the Theme Options, you'll see that all of your settings have been copied over.
WP CONSTRUCTION MODE – The plugin is active, but my website is not displaying the Under Construction page."
If you have toggled WP Construction Mode ON and still cannot see the Construction Mode page, try logging out of WordPress to view your site.
The plugin is built to allow the site Admin & Editor users to continue accessing the site in progress, while the public will only see the Under Construction page.
Visiting your site from an Incognito or Private Browsing window also works.
If you are having this issue, odds are WordPress has cached some of the settings.
If you are using a Cache plugin, please delete the cache and try again. Another option is to website Incognito, to double check that the Construction Mode plugin is off.
The WP Construction Mode plugin automatically filters out /wp-admin and /wp-login.php from the redirect hook.
If you are navigating to /wp-admin and arrive on the Under Construction page, please try yoursite.com/wp-login.php.
If you have a security plugin enabled that changes the login path, it should still account for /wp-login.php.
If all else fails and you are still unable to get in, you can FTP into your site directory and delete the security plugin or WP Construction Mode. Once you regain access to your site, set up the security plugin to account for /wp-login login attempts, then re-activate WP Construction Mode.
We added the login button to allow you quick access to your site dashboard. If however want to remove it, you can do so by editing the plugin's CSS file.
FTP to your site and open /wp-content/plugins/wp-construction-mode/inc/style/style.css
then add this line of CSS:
#admin-login{ display: none }

Dear all,
I am trying to call fortran from C++ project. The C++project is compiled by VS2003 and fortran code is compiled into DLL by Intel Fortran Compiler XE 14. There are very complicated data structure to be passed from C++ to Fortran (struct, pointer, link, char, etc.). Several years ago when the fortran DLL is compiled by Intel Fortran 9.x, everything is OK. However, when the Intel Compiler upgraded to XE 14, there are some problems: the value passed from C++ struct is not correct when in fortran code so the code crashed in the fortran code. At that time I was told to define some descriptor in C++ struct to align data between C++ and fortran code. For example, in fortran code, the structure is defined as follows:
type fortrantype
end type
In C++ the correspondent struct should be defined as follows:
typedef struct fortrantype
int *i;
struct mylist *list;
#ifdef WIN64
char list_fortran_descriptor[64];
char list_fortran_descriptor[32];
#endif //#ifdef WIN64
My question is: how to let the fortran code also work after the compiler upgraded to XE 14 (currently C++ compiler can't be upgraded because the C++ project is very huge and there are thousands of errors when upgrade to latest C++ compiler)? I noticed that the help document tell me how to communicate between fortran and C++:
However, I have to call functions
C_F_POINTER and c_loc
every time I use C pointer from Fortran or use Fortran pointer from C, there are tens of pointers and links in the struct and they are used very frequently in Fortran code, therefore, it will take a very long time to modify the code and debug it. Is there any simpler method to port the fortran code to latest fortran compiler?

Mostly scifi and fantasy here. Tolkien, Asimov, even Rowling. Oh, and All Creatures Great and Small is always a favorite.
Black Dynamite, Marx Brothers, LotR, Harry Potter, Star Wars, Disney movies, UP, Star Trek, The Prestige. Recently I've been watching a lot of classic movies. All things documentary. When in England I saw a documentary from the BBC about documentaries for BBC. It was fantastic.
Star Trek, Sherlock, Firefly, most 90's cartoons, IT Crowd, Black Books, M*A*S*H, Fraiser, Doctor Who, How It's Made, and plenty of others I can't think of right now.
This is a pretty hard one for me. I listen to a lot of very different things. High Kings, Celtic Woman, Rush, Journey, Daft Punk, and Brian Eno. Some days it's classical, musicals, or jazz and other days it's top 40 songs and classic rock.
Again, I like most things. I suppose my favorite is Chinese food. Whenever I try a new Chinese restaurant, as it seems they come and go often, I always try their hot and sour soup first.

Simple Sweet Potato or Pumpkin Muffins (Low Calorie)
Recipe by chungry1
This is my take on a recipe I found elsewhere. Simple and delicious muffins that are good for you!
Top Review by internetnut
I gave this recipe 3 stars. I made this for 2009 Fall PAC. My family wasn't crazy over these muffins. I think because they were made with whole wheat flour and they don't like whole wheat flour where I don't mind it. When I made these muffins I only used 1/4 tsp. salt and I didn't have egg beaters so I subbed Recipe #75868 for them. Otherwise I made these as directed. I'd like to make these again w/Splenda added to make them sweeter. Overall these were just alright. Thanks for posting! Christine (internetnut)

Best Of :: Food & Drink
The desserts at both the fine-dining and casual sides of The Pass & Provisions change regularly. What doesn't change is that the sometimes fanciful — even improbable — ingredient combinations always end up tasting even better than they sound. Maraschino cherry soft serve with cocoa nibs and chile makes perfect sense: Cherries and chocolate go hand in hand, as do chile and chocolate. However, what other place would come up with combining a pistachio financier, yogurt ice cream and bitter chocolate with prune-infused Armagnac? Such combinations exemplify the overall brilliance of executive chefs Seth Siegel-Gardner and Terrence Gallivan. Yes, they are, in fact, the pastry chefs, too. When asked who was responsible for the dessert program, Siegel-Gardner told us, "We just found that it's another outlet that we really enjoy the creative process with."
READERS' CHOICE: The Chocolate Bar
Americans love to joke about how the British can't cook, but chef Richard Knight at Hunky Dory proves them all wrong daily. In addition to his amazing charcuterie, delicate vegetable dishes and hearth-roasted meats, he also has constructed the best burger in Houston. It's a lush, two-patty specimen with amazing beefy flavor. The secret is the combination of ground chuck, brisket and tongue. With the complexity of the meat blend, it makes sense to finish the burger with simple ingredients, and he does so with American cheese, pickles and onion. The warm, willowy fries alongside are excellent too.
READERS' CHOICE: Hubcap Grill
This Vera Pizza Napoletana-certified shop has changed the way Houstonians think about pizza. Blistered in a 900-degree, custom-made Italian brick oven, the pies cook in about 90 seconds, coming out with a just-scorched crust and soft, pillowy center that is best topped lightly. San Marzano sauce and housemade mozzarella are just fine, but you may want to tack on high-quality toppings like spicy soppressata, prosciutto and crimini mushrooms too. Lightly, of course.
When people think "cafeteria," images of sad green beans, soggy fish and scoops of mashed potatoes with wells of brown gravy might come to mind. The cafeteria-style service at Aladdin, though, offers flavor-packed, healthy Mediterranean fare. There are big trays of pickled cabbage salad, hummus and baba ghanoush (eggplant dip). Further down the line is a wealth of roasted fish and meats, like braised lamb shank doused in pan sauce and red snapper filets. Items like deep-fried falafel, dolmades (rice-stuffed grape leaves) and a nice selection of vegetables make it easy to dine vegetarian-style too.
If you thought there was no reason to drive to Richmond, think again. These gourmet rounds come crispy and golden on the outside, with a heavenly interior of fluffy dough. As excellent as the base is, it's the extras that truly make these doughnuts special. Get them in flavors like chocolate tres leches, salted caramel macchiato and key lime pie, or look out for sweet and savory cronuts topped with everything from strawberries and cream to honey chicken.
READERS' CHOICE: Shipley Do-Nuts
With an all-star lineup of local talent (including former Underbelly chef Lyle Bento, former Goro & Gun chef J.D. Woodward and BBQ mastermind Patrick Feges), this Southern-inspired eatery provides full-service comfort through contemporary plates, along with craft cocktails and two dozen beer taps. A constantly rotating menu keeps things interesting, while mainstays like the double-meat, double-cheese SG burger smothered in comeback sauce ensure you'll always leave satisfied. The tiny space is known to get packed, so come early or be prepared to grab a seat at the bar or on the outside patio. Oh, and if bourbon balls are on the menu, get some.

I had liposuction done on my belly and love handles about a month ago. While the first few days were uncomfortable, nothing compares to the burning sensation that I now feel on my love handles. I'm getting professional massages done every other day but the burning still brings me to tears. Also, I have fibrosis around my belly button that look like clumps. I'm really worried that it won't go away. please advise.
First Month Down from Lipo, Horrible Burning?
Doctor Answers 1
Post op pain after liposuction is common
Liposuction is very traumatic and incurs severe swelling and internal subcutaneous scarring. Post op burning pain is not uncommon and probable represents "awakening" of the subcutaneous nerves that have been traumatized, but not cut, from the liposuction. This injury is referred to as neuropraxia and will resolve with time as the swelling subsides.
Treatment consists of massages, which you are already having done, and oral nerve pills, such as neurotin. You would also benefit from a series of external rolling treatments with Endermologie or a similar system. I give all of my liposuction patients any were from 5 to 10 post procedure Endermologie treatments to help resolve the swelling and prevent the neuropraxia symptoms from developing.
Good Luck!

The boys had the best time feeding the goats!
The boys had the best time feeding the goats!
I had Jon hang it on the back of our little island type thing so they move their table and chairs right under the pictures and do their coloring/painting/drawing/etc. and then they can hang them up!
Now the excitement...since I'm going to be home and need LOTS of crafts and activities to keep the boys happy, plus I LOVE LOVE LOVE crafts and coloring so I needed some space that was convenient for me/them to get to. So in our bathroom we have a coat closet. Since I won't be working I don't need all my fancy JCrew coats so I put them all away and left only 2 coats for me and the same for Jon and same for the boys. This made lots of room for coats of our guests that stop by and gave me lots of space to put all the craft supplies. I didn't get a before picture but just image this being packed with all my coats/and on the top shelf little buckets that held gloves/diaper bags and on the floor there was a 3 drawer organizer that held hats and scarves. All that is now gone and it looks like this!!I love it and have lots of ideas on how to use these supplies and stuff all ready to go. One of my many projects I accomplished while on bedrest!
