hi all!I am new to website development and i am learning HTML. when i was reading about it; i come to know this term EMpty element but it is not defined properly.
I wonder if you could explain that to me?Thanks
Element types that are designed to have no content are called 'empty' elements.
Examples include (but are not limited to) a line break,
 and a horizontal rule,

For refs, see the Elements section of the W3 spec for HTML 4.01 (Empty elements are marked by an E).
Differences in XHTML 1.0.
thanks a lot for your help
I guess you could also add elements that are not technically 'empty' elements, but which have been left empty by the author, such as an empty

 element. But in this case it's not a class of element so much as the state of an element. (I just made that up, but it sounds cool. )
This is why HTML now calls
 and friends for "void" elements.
I also wondered where the term "replaced" elements fits in, for things like images. Is it technical term or not, as it wasn't included in Victorinox's link above?
Replaced elements is a CSS term, not an HTML term. See:
http://reference.sitepoint.com/css/replacedelements http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/conform.html#replaced-elementhttp://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visudet.html
Ah thanks. I should have looked it up first.
The terms empty element and void were discussed a while back in this thread.
thanks once again for such a deep help. i would never have done that myself.. you do not know me

Rated 5 out of 5 by kia1302 from Love my cute penguin I love how it looks and it's handy to take it anywhere without an electric chord. I enjoy drinking sparkling water and perhaps add citrus flavor. A friend had taken the penguin to camping and it was a great hit! The penguin is a great investment by far and will save you $$ from buying sparkling water from the store. I highly recommend this cute penguin!Date published: 2017-02-18Rated 5 out of 5 by YoYoJoJo from A gift for my daughter My daughter wanted a SodaStream for Christmas. I ordered this one because I liked the idea she could use glass bottles and I loved the look. She LOVES it! She uses it daily and really appreciated the glass bottles. She says it may be the most artistic item she owns. I'd highly recommend it.Date published: 2017-01-11Rated 3 out of 5 by Timmyboy from Works Great Got the Penguin and used it a couple of times. As it is exclusive to Williams-Sonoma larger bottles and the larger CO2 tank cannot be used. The supplied bottle is just a little over a half liter. That's about a glass full. Will be returning it and buying another model from Soda Stream that will take the larger bottles.Date published: 2016-12-17Rated 5 out of 5 by WenH from Love this soda stream I've had my soda stream for 3-4 years and it still works great. It's nice enough to leave out on the counter and I like the glass carafe better than plastic. It's wonderful not to be adding all that plastic to landfill .Date published: 2016-06-19Rated 3 out of 5 by EdnaRae from Are they sending used ones???? The first one I received was DEFINITELY used and it didn't work. I mailed it back and was sent another one. Yes this was used too. It had a MAJOR scratch at the top and water spots. I mailed it back and was sent another one. The third one I received was used. There were two dents in the metal bottle holder and some water spots, but this one worked. I didn't bother returning it because the dents were on the bottom. Since this item is an exclusive to WS I couldn't purchase it anywhere else. The product works great, but I wish I received a new one...Date published: 2016-06-02Rated 5 out of 5 by marinhomechef from Soda Stream is a big hit at our house Soda Stream sparking water is delicious and a great addition at meal time, often taking the place of less healthy beverages. We like it best unflavored or with a wedge of citrus. For entertaining, we have some extra bottles to fill ahead of time and don't have to buy any bottled water that adds to landfill and other environmental problems.Date published: 2015-07-08Rated 5 out of 5 by slowflyer from Great SodaStream product! I purchased the Penguin 5 years ago. After 5 years of VERY heavy use my Penguin's left eye failed today. You gently squeeze her eyes together to change the co2 bottle. I called SodaStream directly to see if I could buy a new eye or set of eyes and they told me this was still under warranty! I came back to the W-S website to find my original purchase date, hence this review. I cannot say enough good about this product. We love carbonated water and drinks (I drink a lot of SodaStream's Coke Zero equivalent) and this saves the hassle of dealing with canned/bottled drinks. Aside from being more economical and environmentally friendly, I believe it is healthier carbonating your own water and adding the flavor. I've also used the less expensive SodaStream products which have plastic bottles. I'm a clean freak and I like being able to put these glass bottles in the dishwasher. Aside from the solid functionality, the Penguin looks nice sitting on the counter. Great company and product!Date published: 2015-02-05Rated 5 out of 5 by chitownmom1 from Great purchase! Everyone in my house loves sparkling water. It was getting expensive and tiring running to the store every couple of days to replenish our supply. I decided to look into getting a sparkling water maker. Since I knew we would be using the machine often. The Soda Stream Penguin did not disappoint. I love that you are able to control the amount of fizz you want. The glass bottles are attractive and safe. You can use your filtered water from home, so no worries. It is extremely easy to use too. If I had one complaint it would be that the co2 cartridges don't last as long as I would like. We are a family of 4 and go through one in about 2 weeks. I also love that it is an appliance that doesn't need to be plugged in. It is sleek and narrow so it should work in most kitchens. If not, you can easily store it.Date published: 2015-01-16

Battle of Gettysburg
The Battle of Gettysburg and The American Civil War
The first steps toward the Battle of Gettysburg started in June 1863. Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee's soldiers crossed the Potomac River in Virginia and began to march toward the Susquehanna River in Pennsylvania, with thoughts that a victory in the North would erode the Union's will to continue the fight.
The Battle of Gettysburg started on July 1, 1863, when Lee's Army of Northern Virginia met Gen. George Meade's Union Army of the Potomac. During the three-day battle, about 165,000 soldiers clashed in and around the small town of Gettysburg (battle-era population: 2,400).
When the Battle of Gettysburg was over on July 3, 1863, 51,000 soldiers were casualties (killed, wounded, captured or missing) in what remains the largest battle ever fought in North America.
The Battle of Gettysburg: Details of the Fighting
The first shot of the Battle of Gettyburg was fired early in the morning of July 1, 1863, when fighting broke out north and west of town. During the day, Confederate troops forced Union troops southeast through Gettysburg, where the Union took up a position on Cemetery Hill, Cemetery Ridge and Culp's Hill. On July 2, the fighting centered on the southern end of the Union position, near locations such as Little Round Top, Devil's Den, the Wheatfield and the Peach Orchard. Union troops held their position, and the Battle of Gettysburg continued for one more fateful day.
On July 3, 1863, Confederate troops attacked the center of the Union line on Cemetery Ridge. After a cannonade raged for about two hours, Gen. Robert E. Lee ordered his Confederate infantry to attack. More than 14,000 Confederate troops advanced across the field toward Cemetery Ridge; a deluge of artillery shot and shell raked their lines. Those who moved on toward the ridge advanced under a hail of fire. Of those who made it to the Union line, many fell or were captured in the fighting at the Angle, near the Copse of Trees. The attack that became known to history as Pickett's Charge concluded with a Confederate defeat and also ended the Battle of Gettysburg.
Aftermath at Gettysburg and the American Civil War
The Battle of Gettysburg changed the lives of not only the soldiers, but also Gettysburg's residents. The Battle of Gettysburg resulted in 51,000 casualties (killed, wounded, captured and missing). Many of the wounded and dead were left in Gettysburg at public buildings, farm fields and even private homes became makeshift hospitals. It would take Gettysburg years to recover from its battle scars.
It proved impossible for the war-stressed economy of the Confederacy to replace the extensive losses suffered during the Battle of Gettysburg by Robert E. Lee and the Army of Northern Virginia. On July 4, as smoke still lingered from the Battle of Gettysburg, the besieged city of Vicksburg, Miss., surrendered to Union soldiers, restoring Union control of the Mississippi River. Twenty-one months later, Lee surrendered to Union Gen. Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Courthouse, signaling the end of the Civil War.

Santa Fe Public Schools is spending $165,000 to acquire what educational reformers usually don't prescribe for struggling districts: more administrators.
SFPS Superintendent Bobbie Gutierrez announced, at the school board's Oct. 4 meeting, the hiring of Leslie Kilmer as associate principal at Santa Fe High School; the district is still looking for a bilingual administrator to add to Capital High School.
The idea is to free up more of the high school principals' time to visit the classrooms, but when he voted against it, board Vice President Glenn Wikle said he would have needed to see a "solid plan" for the administrators' purpose, instead of "some vague notions that this extra administrator will help get more administrators in classrooms."
Board Member Steven Carrillo also voted against the plan, saying he was concerned "whether or not this is the way to get the most bang for our buck relative to our goal of graduating more kids."
Carrillo tells SFR that he felt "very strongly" that that money could have been better used on elementary school reading instruction. But Wikle's concerns weren't limited to whether the money was being used most effectively—he's also concerned at the prospect of "Big Brother" classroom oversight by administrators.
"It's going to be intimidating; it's going to be more top-down instructional management…I think you have to lay out what you expect the teachers to achieve—teachers are professionals; they can figure out how to do it; that's what they're trained in," Wikle says.
Gutierrez did not return a call for comment before press time.

A SPECIAL service was held to commemorate a heroic Frinton police officer who was shot in the line of duty.
Acting Sgt Brian "Bill" Bishop was gunned down by an armed raider on August 22, 1984.
He was called into action after a spate of armed robberies were reported to police.
The suspect had used a sawn-off shotgun to hold up post offices in Frinton and Walton, escaping with thousands of pounds.
Brian caught up with the robber on Frinton seafront. He was crouching behind a car door with another officer when the robber opened fire.
One of the bullets hit Brian in the head and he died in hospital five days later.
A granite memorial stone was unveiled in Frinton, near the scene of the shooting, in 1986 by the Police Memorial Trust.
Brian's family members were joined by police officers and dignitaries for the special service at the seafront memorial.
It was held last Friday – 30 years to the day after the shooting.

text: I been hunting for over 20 years now and have traveled all over Europe and most of the eastern US but haven't hunted the grate west. October of this year we will be heading to Saskatchewan CAN. for Elk, Mule deer and maybe a chance at a Moose . From what I been told and from my research area that we will be hunting consists of rolling hills and agriculture/farm land of CAN. I'm still somewhat young and I do work for myself so finding time to fish and hunt isn't that big of a deal. What I'm looking for is to experience western big game hunting DIY style. I've used outfitters and consulting companies in past and for most part been happy, I worked with great guy who got me some last minute hunting deals where I hunted solo and didn't mind it .. However the great west is still a dream that I'm looking to make reality. so if there is anyone out there that's willing to take a chance and show me the ropes I would greatly appreciated.. I'm located in southeast part of the country so a weekend trips would be tough.. thanks

For families who have adopted a child of another race, it is especially important to be aware of love's limits.
Since 1963, Abbott House has served the five boroughs of NYC and the lower and mid-Hudson Valley region. The only program of its kind in the state, the Bridge Family model unites families who are considering adoption with teens who have been in the foster care system for the majority of their lives...
From toddlers to teens there is something about a car ride that is conducive to intimate conversation.
After seven years of intensive treatment for unexplained infertility, and after seven years of ignoring the problem while dealing with a live-in mother-in-law with Alzheimer's disease, I was sure infertility would leave me emotionally hobbled forever.
NYC mom writes for change.
With so many families choosing to adopt children from foreign countries, many factors come into play in keeping the adoptee's birth heritage alive. Through interaction with organizations that post events and offer advice and social outlets, families are able to help celebrate cultural differences together with their children.
Alexei acts like any other fourth grader. He listens to Jessica Simpson and shoots hoops with his brother after school. In the school orchestra he plays the violin, and he will be one of the townspeople in the school production of "The Music Man". Ask him any baseball trivia question, he'll give you the answer. His mother, Terry Naumann of Yorktown Heights, unabashedly describes Alexei as "slender and handsome" with a "wry sense of humor". Yet a little over three years ago, the boy behind the hazel eyes with long, thick lashes didn't know a word of English and was headed toward a dismal life as an orphan in Siberia.
Deb Capone tells people that when she adopted her daughter, Noelle, from Hunan Province, China, in 2000, she knowingly joined the legion of "the sleep-deprived" and unknowingly became part of what has emerged as one of the fastest-growing segments of the U.S. population: the transracial family.

The Green Gypsie
What: The Green Gypsie anniversary party.
Where: The Packing House, 526 First St., Claremont.
When: 11 a.m.-9 p.m. July 19.
Admission: Free.
Information: 909-621-4717, www.thegreengypsie.com
"Going Green" has become a popular phrase that — at the very least — has many separating their paper, plastic, aluminum and glass for recycling. But Amanda Reifel and Angela Rossi have made the eco-conscious habits not only their way of life, but their livelihood.
Reifel and Rossi own The Green Gypsie, an eco-chic store in Claremont that specializes in eco-friendly home decor and gifts, many designed and handcrafted in the United States by independent artisans. The two will be celebrating The Green Gypsie's two-year anniversary July 19 with a party filled with activities, discounts, eco-education and even some giving back.
Amanda Reifel and Angela Rossi, owners of The Green Gypsie, share definitions often used to describe eco-friendly items in their store:
Upcycled: use of discarded objects or materials that create a product in such a way it lends itself to a higher quality or value than in its original format.
Sustainable: an item that minimizes its impact on the environment at each life-cycle phase.
Recycled: items made from reprocessed waste materials.
Sustainable harvested wood: wood grown and developed using responsible forestry techniques.
U.S. made: designed and made in the United States. These items mean less carbon emitted in transportation.
Organic: naturally grown raw materials untreated by pesticides or hazardous chemicals.
Eco-chic: fashionable and/or trendy design reflecting concern for the environment.
"Recycle, repurpose, reuse is very important to us," Reifel said. "We are both very passionate about being eco-friendly."
All items at the store during the anniversary celebration are 10 percent off, with 10 percent of the day's sales to be donated to the Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden.
There also will be a free craft table where patrons can make eco-friendly art as well as music and refreshments at the event.
The Green Gypsie offers such unique items as bowls made from fruits and vegetables, zoo animal-shaped items made out of recycled cardboard, light bulb vases and antique Victrolas converted into Bluetooth speakers.
"Everything in our store was once something else," Reifel said. "Our merchandise is creating less waste and a more environmentally friendly universe."
What some view as trash, the eco-minded turns around to repurpose, recycle or upcycle — products made out of discarded materials to create a higher quality or valued item — into amazing, sometimes functional art.
Reifel and Rossi met in 2010 when Rossi moved next door to Reifel's Upland home. Reifel started working for Rossi's online recycled antique boutique beatupcreations.com, which takes vintage plates — some 100 years old — and adds unique or comical applique for a fun, hip new look.
Expanding on that idea, the women became partners in a brick-and-mortar business with an online ordering component.
The store has prompted its employee, Leslie Curran, to start her own eco-friendly enterprise creating jewelry from comic books.
"The things you'll see in the store you won't see anywhere else," Curran said. "You can't help but be inspired by everything you see and want to be a part of it."

Topic: Baptism in New Church
So, many of you know I started going to church 3 years ago, about 8 months before my diagnosis.
In March, I finally figured out that no matter how I fought, God had a plan for me all along. So... I am getting baptized in the New Church. I was raised Lutheran, and have been baptized, but I feel that this is MY choice... To let Him know that I choose Him. And that I've given it up to Him. It's His will, and I'm trying not to worry about it anymore.
It's going to be May 19 at the end of the service.
"Don't just have minutes in the day; have moments in time."

|Assigned Interventions
Active Comparator: 1
Participants will receive fluoxetine with clinical management, which may involve switching medication to citalopram, another SSRI.
Drug: Fluoxetine
Starting dose of 20 mg daily will increase over 4 weeks, depending on tolerability, up to 40 mg daily. Treatment will last 6 months.
Other Name: ProzacDrug: Citalopram
Dose set by study psychiatrist, up to 60 mg daily. Treatment will last 6 months.

Active Comparator: 2
Participants will receive dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT).
Behavioral: DBT
One 60-minute individual therapy session and one 90-minute group therapy session every week. Treatment will last 6 months.
Detailed Description:
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a chronic disorder in emotional regulation and is characterized by instability in self-image, mood, relationships, and behavior. People suffering from BPD have a high rate of self-injury and suicide attempts. This study will compare the effectiveness of two treatments for preventing self-injury and suicide in people with BPD: dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and fluoxetine with clinical management. DBT is a behavioral therapy that teaches new coping skills to replace old strategies, including self-injury and attempted suicide. Fluoxetine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) medication that has been used to treat BPD. Clinical management of fluoxetine, which is involved in administering the medication under normal conditions, refers to regular visits with a psychiatrist who will monitor medication effectiveness and side effects. Clinical management in this study may include adjusting the dosage of fluoxetine or prescribing a change in medication to citalopram, another SSRI.
Participation in this study will last 12 months, including all follow-up assessments. During the first study visit, participants will undergo baseline testing and be randomly assigned to receive either DBT or fluoxetine with clinical management. After a washout period, in which participants will transition off any medications they are currently taking, participants will receive 6 months of their assigned treatment. Participants receiving DBT will attend one 60-minute individual therapy session and one 90-minute group session every week. Participants assigned to the fluoxetine with clinical management condition will begin receiving 20 mg of fluoxetine daily and have their dose increased over the course of 4 weeks, based on tolerance, up to 40 mg. Participants assigned to fluoxetine may also be switched to citalopram, if the study psychiatrist thinks it will be more effective. Participants assigned to either fluoxetine or citalopram will undergo monthly blood tests to monitor the level of medication in their bodies.
Every 2 weeks, participants will undergo assessments of treatment effectiveness and side effects. After 2, 4, 6, 9, and 12 months, participants will undergo various neuropsychological tests and clinical interviews and self-report questionnaires about mood and life experiences. At study entry and at Weeks 12 and 24, participants will use a handheld computer to complete a week-long assessment of emotions. Fully healthy female participants will be asked to complete a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scan, which will assess their ability to regulate emotions at the neural level. The fMRI scan and a stress test (for both men and women) will be performed at baseline and after 6 months.

A proposed open cut coal mine central to the state's largest ever corruption inquiry is set to be blocked by the NSW government after the Premier, Barry O'Farrell, announced that evidence heard during public hearings would be considered in deciding whether it should go ahead.
Cascade Coal lodged a development application for the mine, at Mount Penny in the state's north west, in December 2010.
The exploration licence for the Mount Penny area, approved by the former Labor minister Ian Macdonald, has become the subject of sensational allegations at the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
The commission has heard allegations that Mr Macdonald corruptly granted the licence which has delivered $30 million to the family of his Labor colleague, Eddie Obeid, with the possibility of $100 million more should a mining licence be granted. At the moment Cascade has a licence to explore, not to mine. The ICAC has heard that should a mining licence be granted, the mine could be worth up to $1 billion.
The inquiry has heard that Mr Macdonald was to receive a $4 million payment in 2011 when Cascade Coal was on sold to a publicly-listed mining company for $500 million. But the sale fell through when questions were asked about whether the Obeid family had a secret stake in Cascade and Mr Macdonald did not receive his alleged share.
The development application for the Mount Penny mine has yet to be considered by the department of planning and infrastructure as there are unresolved environmental assessment issues. The Obeids, who had a 25 per cent stake of Cascade, were paid $30 million to leave the company and were to receive a second $30 million payment. The Obeids retain a 9.3 per cent stake in Cascade through a nominee company because the second payment has not been forthcoming.
During question time, Mr O'Farrell told the NSW parliament that state cabinet has resolved to broaden the public interest considerations when considering the development application to include evidence before the ICAC.
"These include allegations of corrupt conduct associated with the grant of an exploration licence," Mr O'Farrell said.
He said cabinet had also decided to consider the best way of ensuring this is done, either through administrative change or legislation.
"The revelations, the evidence, the material presented to ICAC to date has been extraordinary," Mr O'Farrell said.
"They have cast a shadow over public administration in NSW, they have stained the reputation of all those who have toiled honestly and hard in this parliament over the past 157 years of its history."
The decision came after Mr O'Farrell wrote to the ICAC commissioner, David Ipp, inviting him to advise the government about the future of the Mount Penny mining licence.
Commissioner Ipp responded on Wednesday night, but made no recommendations in relation to whether the licences should be suspended or cancelled.

You exercise your body to stay physically in shape, so why shouldn't you exercise your brain to stay mentally fit? With these daily exercises you will learn how to flex your mind, improve your creativity and boost your memory. As with any exercise, repetition is necessary for you to see improvement, so pick your favorite exercises from our daily suggestions and repeat them as desired. Try to do some mentalrobics every single day!
You may be asking yourself why you should improve your memory and learning skills in this modern age of technology. You could always do a Google search to find information or plug something into your PDA to remember it!
On the contrary, good memory skills can help you in many situations where you don't have access to recording technology. What if you think of a brilliant idea in the shower? Or while driving? Not to mention that memory skills can increase your confidence in public speaking (since you will have the speech memorized), and save you the embarrassment of forgetting someone's name (you can't very well dig out your PDA to remember someone standing right in front of you!).
The other problem with modern technology is that it gives you an excuse to let your mind get lazy and forget something. If all of your passwords, phone numbers, and schedules are in your PDA, what happens when your batteries run dry or you leave it on the bus? It's impossible to leave your brain on the bus, so why not try to get more information into your head?

Maya Hills
Categories: Facial, Blonde, Blowjob, Deepthroat, POV
Maya Hills is a triple time Throated veteran. Yep, this makes her THIRD scene here at Throated. So why have we had Maya back so many times? As if you even needed to ask! First of all, she\'s an exotic mix of Russian and Eskimo that left her with a sexy accent and a luscious set of lips that look like the gods designed them specifically for mouth-fucking. More importantly, she can deep throat like nobody\'s business and will swallow a Coke can sized cock without batting an eyelash. Maya starts off this video already naked. When you\'ve been here twice before, there\'s no need to tease us with a striptease. By now she knows that all we want to see is her beautiful lips sucking a cock like she\'s going for the Olympic gold. She still turns around to shake that cute booty at us and grin before she goes to work on his cock. She sucks, spits, slurps, and even when she\'s impaling her throat on his cock, she gets every inch into her throat without the slightest hint of a gag. This is the motherfuckin\' motherlode of deep-throat blowjobs! I know men who would crawl through Chernobyl if Maya Hills was waiting on the other side to give them a some mouth sex.
Another gold medal blowjob from Maya Hills

The local market had beef back ribs on special so I picked up a couple slabs for lunch.
I hit them with some Montreal Steak Seasonings.
I used a basic indirect set up with Stubbs and some pecan chunks.
I grill/smoked them @ about 350* to 375* for about 3 hours till they probed tender.
I let them rest on the counter for about 20 min. uncovered. No sauce, no sides just naked ribs. A tasty lunch with plenty left over for breakfast tomorrow.
Thanks for looking.

NEW YORK (AP) – Jason Kubel and the Minnesota Twins roughed up former teammate Johan Santana early, and Carl Pavano produced another fine pitching performance Saturday in a 6-0 victory over the New York Mets.
Pavano (9-6) gave up three hits in his second consecutive complete game, both of which have come against an NL East ace. The well-traveled right-hander tossed a four-hitter Sunday to beat Roy Halladay and the NL champion Phillies 4-1.
Pavano had two hits and a sacrifice at the plate for Minnesota, which ended a four-game skid. The Twins began the day a half-game up on Detroit in the AL Central.
It was Pavano's sixth career shutout and first since June 5, 2009, against the Chicago White Sox.
Santana was given a rude welcome in his first start against the team he spent his first eight seasons with. After Britain's Prince Harry threw out the ceremonial first pitch with some gusto, Santana got a quick out. But Minnesota then scored four runs on several sharply hit balls.
Joe Mauer, Kubel and Delmon Young all drove in runs to help hand the Mets just their third loss in 16 games at Citi Field.
Denard Span had an RBI double off Santana (5-5) in the fourth inning and Kubel homered off Fernando Nieve in the ninth for the Twins, who improved to 3-5 on their road trip.
Not only did the Twins end their losing streak, they snapped an uncharacteristic stretch in which they made errors in each of the four losses with several smart plays behind Pavano.
They turned two double plays – one a baserunning blunder by Jeff Francouer in the third after he bunted for the Mets' first hit. He was caught way off first on a popup to shortstop Nick Punto.
Punto started the other double play when he caught Alex Cora's liner at his feet and then threw to first to double off Ike Davis, who walked.
Pavano took care of the rest in his second straight dominant outing. Having flopped mightily in New York with the Yankees from 2005-08, he looked more like the ace the Bronx Bombers thought they were giving a $39.95 million contract to. His ninth win matched his total during four injury-plagued years in New York.
Pavano didn't allow a baserunner to reach third and only six outs were made in the outfield. He struck out three, walked one and hit a batter with a pitch in his third complete game this season.
For Santana, the poor first inning was the continuation of a turbulent week.
Several days after he lost to the Yankees on Sunday, reports surfaced that a woman accused Santana of raping her in Florida last year. The pitcher told Florida police he had consensual sex with the woman.
The state attorney's office declined to prosecute the case, citing lack of evidence and inconsistent statements.
Santana, who is married with three children, said Wednesday that "the case is closed" and said he would not comment any further.
Santana pitched for the Twins from 2000-07, winning two Cy Young Awards and four division titles. But the Twins traded him to the Mets as he neared free agency and he signed a $137.5 million, six-year contract with New York.
Orlando Hudson started the first-inning rally with a one-out double and Mauer followed with an RBI single. Michael Cuddyer walked an out later and Kubel drove in Mauer with a ground-rule double to left. Young followed with another hard-hit double for two more runs and a 4-0 lead.
Santana allowed at least four runs for the fourth straight start.

Endorsement: Tim Kaine for U.S. Senate
In the race for Virginia's open Senate seat, two former governors are squaring off: Tim Kaine, who served as governor from 2006 to 2010, and George Allen, who served a term as governor from 1994 to 1998 and a term as Senator from 2001 to 2007. When you look at the two candidates—their records and what they say they'll do in office—it's clear that Tim Kaine is the right choice for Virginia voters.
As governor, Kaine had an outstanding record. He gave targeted tax cuts to homeowners and small businesses, while eliminating tax loopholes for big corporations. He invested in early childhood education and the state's higher education system to help move Virginia forward. Under his leadership, Virginia was named the "best-managed state" by Governing magazine, the "best state for business" by Forbes and the "best state to raise a child" by Education Week, each year he was in office. He'll bring those values and priorities to the U.S. Senate.
Allen is running for another chance at holding the seat he lost in the 2006 elections. He has a Senate record we can evaluate. And his record isn't good enough to merit a trip back across the river to D.C. He was a close ally and enabler of the Bush administration, and voted for the Bush tax cuts that gave their biggest benefits to the richest 2%. He's given every indication on the campaign trail that he would pick right up where he left off—and what's more, he says he'd support the Paul Ryan budget that AARP says ends Medicare as we know it, driving up costs for seniors. Paul Ryan's budget would also cost Virginia thousands of jobs.
You don't just elect a Senator to take votes, however—that's only part of the job. You elect a Senator to represent your state and its citizens at the national level. That's a question of values and temperament, and it's a test Tim Kaine excels at. He's a compassionate, smart and pragmatic leader who knows how to reach out to all corners of a changing and growing state.
Allen, however, falls short. In his last race, Allen lost in part because he was caught on tape bullying a young Indian-American cameraman from a rival campaign, telling him "welcome to America and the real world of Virginia." It was an embarrassing moment that showed Allen's character clearly.
Tim Kaine's impressive record, and his talent for connecting with people from all walks of life, will serve Virginia well if he's elected as their Senator. He'll make smart policy choices—the kind that were sadly lacking during George Allen's term.
Kaine is the right choice. Plan your vote here.

The Lembatta Cluster was a region of space located near the border between the United Federation of Planets and the Klingon Empire.
In 2373, the USS Farragut was destroyed by Klingon forces near the Lembatta Cluster, while en route to offer relief to Ajilon Prime. (DS9: "Nor the Battle to the Strong")
According to the Star Trek: Star Charts, on page 64, the Lembatta Cluster was located in the Beta Quadrant.
The novel Articles of the Federation mentioned a planet called Lembatta Prime, which author Keith R.A. DeCandido stated was near the Lembatta Cluster. The Lembatta Cluster is the setting of Star Trek: Prometheus.

ANAHEIM -- A trio of walks in the eighth inning sank the Orioles' sweep hopes on Wednesday night.
Baltimore, clinging to a one-run lead, watched things go awry when right-hander Tommy Hunter issued a pair of two-out walks and lefty Brian Matusz gave up a bases-loaded free pass to give the Angels a 3-2 win, squandering a chance to maintain their four-game lead in the American League East.
The late-inning loss negated a solid start from Chris Tillman, as well as some promising at-bats from David Lough and Ryan Flaherty, putting the Orioles back at .500 for this road trip as they head to Seattle for the final leg of the 10-game, three-city excursion.
And despite handing a red-hot Angels club their first series loss in Anaheim in 11 series at home, the Orioles boarded the plane on Wednesday night far from satisfied.
"We don't look at it like, 'If we do this, we're successful.' You come out here and try to win 10," manager Buck Showalter said of his club, which has a three-game lead in the division at the 100-game mark. "We don't do math. We don't do percentages or anything. You post up and you play and you try to win a nine-inning game. Every day is another opportunity."
Hunter, who used a one-out walk in the seventh to get Albert Pujols to ground into a double play, wasn't as fortunate the following frame. After Josh Hamilton singled, Erick Aybar doubled into left-center to tie the score at 2 and snap a career-high 12 consecutive scoreless appearances for Hunter.
After a pair of strikeouts of Howie Kendrick and David Freese -- with Aybar stealing third during Kendrick's at-bat -- Hunter issued an intentional walk to Efren Navarro, followed by an intentional free pass to No. 9 batter Chris Iannetta.
"It was a little tight, but I don't know. That's something you can't control," Hunter said when asked about home-plate umpire Hal Gibson's late-game strike zone. "[You] try to control the things you can and move on. He thought they were balls. I would see it a little differently. I'm a pitcher, and he's an umpire, so I can see the disagreement we would have probably had with each other if we talked about it. Other than that, it is what it is."
Hunter was replaced by Matusz, who fell behind, 3-1, before issuing the free pass to Kole Calhoun, which allowed the decisive run to score.
"I was just trying to get a good pitch to hit," Calhoun said of his game-winning at-bat. "The strike he threw was definitely his pitch -- tough inside corner, a little sink on his fastball. I was looking for a pitch and never really got it. I don't know if he saw me laying off good pitches there, but I didn't get what I was looking for."
New Angels closer Huston Street, who came on in relief of ace Jered Weaver, pitched around a one-out walk to Chris Davis in the ninth to end the game three outs later, giving the Angels their Major League-leading 31st comeback win.
"I feel like a lot of the games are going to be that way now," Tillman said of Wednesday's low-scoring, hard-fought contest. "We are coming to the part of the year where everyone kind of sees the light at the end of the tunnel to get to where they want to be in the postseason. So I think it's good if that's the way it's going to be. That's the way it should be. Hopefully, we can come out on top."
The O's late-inning woes saddled Tillman with a no-decision despite his quality start. Tillman put the Orioles in a hole three batters in, as Pujols' single scored Mike Trout, but he regrouped to keep the Angels off the board for the remainder of his six innings.
Tillman, who has allowed three earned runs or fewer in 18 of 22 starts, picked off Iannetta to end the second inning and stranded a pair of runners in the fifth and sixth to turn in a quality outing.
"I thought he was crisp from the get-go," Showalter said of Tillman, who has quality starts in eight of his last nine. "Command was there -- curveball command, changeup, slider. He had a nice mix. The walks kind of bit us a bit. We had, like, five or six and a hit by pitch [as a staff].
"We didn't have [closer] Zach [Britton] tonight. He's pitched four out of the last five, so we had to push everybody up a spot or two. It was a challenge."
The Orioles broke the 1-1 tie when Lough scored on Adam Jones' bloop single into right field off Weaver. Getting the rare start with the right-handed Weaver on the mound, Lough -- who had two hits -- delivered a two-out single and stole second before crossing home plate for the first time since July 6.
Flaherty's one-out double in the third inning had helped put the Orioles on the board against Weaver, as he eventually score on Nick Markakis' single into right field. Those were the only two runs Weaver allowed over his eight innings, as he scattered six hits and struck out eight before Street took over.
"They've got a good lineup," Tillman said of an Angels team that entered the series leading the Majors in runs scored and will visit Baltimore early next week. "They are going to battle all night long. All series long. It never felt like you had the game in hand. They grinded me out tonight, put some real good at-bats together. Sometimes you've got to tip your cap."

(Sept. 19, 2011) As reported on September 14, 2011, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Human Rights and Toxic Waste, Calin Georgescu, is proposing that an international legal regime be developed to manage toxic medical waste. The goal would be to manage and dispose of the waste and promote use of disposal methods that are better environmentally than incineration. (Medical Waste Becoming an Increasing Problem, UN Rights Expert Says, UN NEWS CENTRE (Sept. 14, 2011).)
Medical waste includes infectious waste; anatomical and pathological waste; obsolete and expired chemical products, including pharmaceuticals; radioactive materials; and medical instruments. Many of these materials can cause health problems for staff, patients, disposal workers, and any other persons exposed to them. Georgescu pointed out that the problem is growing in developing nations, where the provision of health care is increasing but proper means of managing the toxic waste may not be in place. He added that "20 to 25 per cent of the total waste generated by health-care establishments is regarded as hazadous and may create a variety of health and environmental risks if not managed and disposed of in an appropriate manner." (Id.)
The Rapporteur was particularly critical of incineration as a disposal method, stating:
In health-care establishments where hazardous medical waste is incinerated, open burning and widespread deficiencies in the operation and management of small-scale medical waste incinerators result in incomplete waste destruction, inappropriate ash disposal and dioxins emissions, which can be even 40,000 times higher than emission limits set forth in international conventions. (Id.)
He advocated the promotion of autoclaving, which uses pressurized steam, as a less environmentally damaging method of disposal than incineration. (John Heilprin, UN Investigator Says Medical Waste Risks Ignored, AP (Sept. 14, 2011).)
Georgescu further noted that in some places, medical waste and household waste are mixed, spreading the hazards to a larger area. He completed a full report on the topic in July 2011 that was submitted to the U.N. Human Rights Council. (Report of the Special Rapporteur on the Adverse Effects of the Movement and Dumping of Toxic and Dangerous Products and Wastes on the Enjoyment of Human Rights, A/HRC/18/31 (July 4, 2011).)
The report recommended that countries without national legislation on the subject of medical waste should develop such laws, keeping in mind as basic principles that the laws should:
(a) provide a clear definition of health care waste and its categories;
(b) define clearly the duties and responsibilities of each actor involved in the health care waste management process;
(c) identify the national authority responsible for overseeing the implementation of the law and its enforcement; and
(d) impose appropriate penalties for contravention. (Id. at 19.)
Citing the risk to the human right to life and health, the report states that "[i]n spite of the risks that medical waste may pose to human health and the environment, the international community has not yet elaborated a comprehensive framework to regulate the sound handling, transport and disposal of hazardous waste generated by hospitals and health-care facilities." (Id. at 14.) Among the additional recommendations in the report is the suggestion that developing nations be provided with financial and technical assistance to implement safe disposal methods. (Id. at 20.)

CARLETON, Mich. - Three teens were arraigned in First District Court on Monday in Monroe County after a robbery in a Carleton area barn.
Authorities said five teenagers were inside the barn on West Labo Road partying Friday morning when the robbery occurred.
Police say the teens robbed a 15-year-old boy at gunpoint to steal his musical equipment.
The monroenews.com reports one of the girls allegedly punched the victim and choking him.
The teens duct-taped the boy and one of them pointed a gun at his head, Detective Pauli said.
Austin Walker from LaSalle, Mich., Alicia Small and Nickilas Bowling both of Monroe, were arraigned on charges of armed robbery.
The three 17-year-old suspects remain in jail on $100,000 bonds.
A fourth suspect, age 16, is being housed at a youth center and could be charged as an adult.
Police are still looking for the fifth female teen suspect in the case.
The robbers reportedly took thousands of dollars in equipment before they drove off.
The victim was eventually able to free himself and alert authorities.

Comments about breakout clearing all over toner:
This is a great product. The only thing I don't like, is the timer is a spray. So you need to close your eyes and tighten your lips and hold your breath. Thankfully, it doesn't have a nasty taste, in case it gets in your mouth
Comments about breakout clearing all over toner:
Have seen my skin breakout more since I've started using this.
I am 26 years old and this product completely changed my skin to become clear, bright, and even. It is now part of my regular skin routine 2x a day.
This toner is amazing. Right when I sprayed it on, I could feel a difference and when I woke up the next day, most of my acne was cleared. It has a great scent and feels very refreshing. If you apply your next product while your face is still damp with the toner, your skin will feel moisturized without any greasiness.
Ever since I started using this product I've seen a difference in my skin. It's effective and it leaves my skin feeling clean and refreshed.
This product is great ! It helped reduce the redness in my face so much and I would highly recermend it to anyone !
I love that this product does not dry out my skin.!
I am in my early forties and enjoy working out. Due to my workouts, I would sometimes breakout on my chest and back, and since I have been using the Breakout Toner, it hasn't been an issue.
I have been using this product for a couple months now and can see a huge difference in my skin. Breakouts have cleared up with this gentle, but effective cleanser.
I never used toner before until I purchased the 3 step kit and automatically fell in love with this toner. The scent is pleasant and I love how my skin feels as soon as I spray it on. It has helped control my acne more than I thought it would! I would definitely recommend this product!

Rylands 2 Whaley Bridge 1
RYLANDS returned to winning ways with a hard-fought victory over Whaley Bridge in Cheshire Football League Division One.
A first-half strike from Kris Bell put Rylands in front after 26 minutes before the lead was doubled by the returning Liam Hayes early in the second period.
Manager Dave Parr said: "I thought we worked really hard and played some good football at times in difficult conditions and against a decent side.
"We were not as compact defensively which is concerning but credit to the lads for digging deep to make sure we took three points."
Hayes, who had been out for six weeks through injury, bagged the decisive goal after coming on to replace Alex Lowe, who picked up a dead leg.
Whaley Bridge replied soon after Rylands' second goal to make the final period nervy for the home side.
Rylands: Moor, Parr, Duffy (J Sinker), Prescott, Tebb, Brown, Lowe (Hayes), Priest, Slater, Bell, Deakin (Dermody).

That's a Simpson's reference, for those of you non-Simpsons addicts out there (from the episode in which they travel to Brazil).
So, it was an incredibly fun & productive trip, very nicely organized by Gabi, Marcos, & Luis at Adobe Brazil.
Gabi and me (just off the plane) with the Adobe Sao Paulo office on the far-left.
We had a great turnout at the Production Studio Launch Seminar in Sao Paulo, which was held at a conference center atop a shopping mall. There's a lot of incredible creative stuff going on in Brazil, and one example are the "Novelas" produced by TV Globo, which is the 4th largest TV network in the world (right behind CBS, NBC and ABC).
On the set of "Bang Bang", a wild-west themed Novela..
Novelas are basically soap operas, and 3 different ones air on TV Globo each weeknight. The production values are high, and the deadlines are tight.
The bluescreen on the right is stretched out during shooting so desert backgrounds can be chroma-keyed in during post..
The orange dots on top of the scenery in the center of this photo are motion-tracked in post so the jungle surroundings can be replaced with more appropriate background elements.
It's kinda like "Hollywood in a Jungle". The grounds are incredibly lush, and include everything from huge interior & exterior sets to ultra-modern post production facilities (where they rely heavily on After Effects, Photoshop, & Illustrator), to scenery & costume design. It's literally a city-within-a-city (that city being Rio), which I got to spend a whopping 9 hours in.
Marcos & I talk heavy strategy overlooking the Atlantic Ocean in Rio before our meeting with TV Globo.
Not a boring place to have to go & work, that's for sure.
Got to head into the office now (a rare novelty these days), so I'll share some more stuff from the trip tomorrow.

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"We are having a destination beach wedding, that will be both intimate and relaxed. We wanted a card that represented our style more than the location, but we chose the blue and gold design to also play on the beach theme. We purchased the Save the Date, Invitation, RSVP, and Thank you cards in this style all at once. It was all very easy to do online and was returned to us quickly for review prior to print. We love them all, but there is a difference between the gold color - what I would call a true yellow gold color - on the Thank You card and the "gold" - what I would call more of a sand color on all the other cards. This is fine for our wedding in that it lends itself to a beach theme, and I doubt anyone will be holding all of the cards up to each other to match color (other than me). If your looking for the color to match across the board, this may not be for you. Overall we couldn't be happier with the total product and experience"
"These turned out fabulous. My wedding planner offered me save the dates at $3,000, and these were a tenth of the price and look even better! I upgraded to the higher quality paper and envelopes, but that's it! Everyone loves them and I'm getting compliments on the design. Cheers to our photographer for great photos, but these blew out my expectations."
"I am so very happy with how our save the date turned out. High quality paper and printing. We have gotten a lot of positive feedback and compliments from our family/friends. I highly recommend this card!!!!"
"I printed this with a navy blue. I absolutely loved the design. The order arrived before I was expecting it to. Great quality and great service."
"We couldn't be happier with our save the dates! We wanted it to represent our laid back, playful personalities and it did just that. We love the chalkboard look and the feel of the product is very expensive. We are so excited to send these out and order invitations next!"

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 4/11/2012 (1752 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
I am feeling pretty proud of myself because I just got my new passport.
Technically, I do not actually have the passport yet, but I have navigated the complex bureaucratic maze, which ends with you giving the federal government money and them promising to send you a passport in time for you to go on that big trip with your wife she arranged more than a year ago without any help from you because all you had to do was get your (bad word) passport, if that isn't asking too (very bad word) much.
Based on personal experience, I would say the process of filling out the forms required to get a passport is a lot like getting an advanced degree in quantum physics because, from what I can tell, the "simple" paperwork was prepared by rocket scientists for rocket scientists, so there is absolutely no way someone with a normal-size brain such as you or I could hope to fill it out without making a simple mistake that would land us in federal prison.
That being the case, here is my step-by-step guide to getting a passport without any actual work on your part:
Step 1 -- Get married and wait for your spouse to arrange "the trip of a lifetime" to someplace you personally have never heard of but will not let someone like you cross their borders without documented proof you are not an axe murderer.
Step 2 -- When your spouse tells you she has done all the work and the only thing you are expected to do is get your passport, smile and reassure her "it is on the top of your to-do list, just as soon as the game is over."
Step 3 -- Spend the next 11 months on the couch watching sports highlights and, in case of a lockout, the weather channel.
Step 4 -- When your spouse demands to know if you have filled out the passport forms, tell her you are "definitely on top of it" but you did not expect this documentary in which supermodel Christie Brinkley reveals the secret to ageless skin to be such compelling viewing.
Step 5 -- Leave the forms and some pens and pencils in a spot where your spouse will find them during her daily routine, such as on the floor next to your dirty underwear and socks or beside the empty toilet-paper dispenser.
Step 6 -- Once your spouse has "taken the hint" and filled out the forms for you, take a moment to examine her work just in case she has made any glaring errors on your behalf.
Step 7 -- After glancing at your personal information on the forms, make sad puppy-dog eyes and give your spouse some helpful feedback: "Brown hair! I don't have brown hair! You don't know me at all!"
Step 8 -- Go to the passport office and get in a line that is so long it can be seen from outer space and is moving more slowly than a small jungle creature passing through the digestive system of a mature python. Make sure to bring a snack.
Step 9 -- Do not do anything even remotely suspicious, such as perspiring. Answer all the passport agent's questions in a prompt and courteous manner. For example:
Passport agent: "Do you... "
You: "YES!"
Passport agent: "I haven't asked the question yet."
You: "IT'S NOT MY FAULT. MY WIFE DID IT!"
Step 10 -- After handing over your birth certificate and driver's licence and paying the processing fee, back away from the passport agent slowly, remembering never to smile, because that is a sure sign you are an international terrorist.
Step 11 -- Now go straight home and thank your spouse for all her help. Promise you will visit her in prison every day.
