Here is my basic website design:
Within content there are 3 main partitions. (logo, slogan, sites) And my Sites Partition requires 3 sub partitions (site1, site2, site3)My current problem is that I don't know how to put sites next to the Slogan Partition.
Here is my slogan partition code:
margin-top: 150px;
padding: 0 0 100px;
Not sure the code required for me to place the Sites Partition next to the Slogan Partition.
The basic approach is to create a div for each, give each a width, and float them. You can either set each to float: left, or perhaps float one left and the other right.
With using the "float" command I can now place Slogan and Sites Partition beside each other. (float: left; for Slogan Partition, and float: right; for Sites Partition.)Problem: Content Partition (which includes: logo, slogan, sites) does not include Slogan and Sites Partition.
I'm not sure why Content Partition is not including all 3 partitions... What is the error here?
If the Content partition is a static block (a regular, non-positioned block element like a div), and it has floated children inside it (it does now, you've floated them), then Content can't see that it has children anymore. It thinks it's empty, and so does not enclose it's children anymore.
This is normal, and what happens with floated children inside static boxes.
There are lots and lots of solutions to this. I'll give you the two I think would be safest for you, then maybe I'll list some more so you know all later possibilities.
The Quick Dirty Easy way is to set the Content partition to "overflow: hidden". By default, a static parent box is set to overflow: visible, and so long as its children aren't floated or anything weird, the rules say that parent must "see" its children and enclose them.
When you tell the box "overflow: something-other-than-visible" (there is also "scroll" and "auto" values, but these will probably look ugly to you), now the parent box MUST consider if anyone is "overflowing" outside of it. Since we set it to hidden (or whatever), it must now be able to "see" those floated children; otherwise, how could it deal with overflow?
Because the parent can now "see" those floated children, it will enclose them like it should. Throw an ugly background colour or outline around Content/Parent and you'll see it.
Overflow: hidden however does... hide overflow. If you have set dimensions on the Content/Parent like height or width, and any child inside needs to be bigger, then you'll see them get cut off. Usually setting a width is ok because you've also set widths on your floated children and you calculated it all out and everyone inside carefully fits inside the parent, so no overflow. But if you have set a height on the parent, remove it. Let the children inside determine the height automatically. So now no cutoff.
Option 2: What if you really did want something to stick out of Content/Parent? Maybe an image that's absolutely positioned, or some abso-po'd popup box shows up when users click on something and it might need to stick out from the Content/Parent box. Then overflow: hidden will bite you and you'll need another solution.A popular one is a modified version of Tony Aslett's "clearfix". Unfortunately lots of nasty hacky codes are out there under this name (the original was long because it dealt with IE5 for Mac and whatnot, but it was also brilliant). I'll give you a clean one.You take the Content/Parent, and give it a "fake" child who's not floated. Since it's not a float, it counts as a child who must be "seen" by the parent, and so the parent will enclose this one. But the fake child must be "under" the floats, so it has to clear them (you know float clearing? if not, read up on it, you'll need to understand it well to use floats). When we create this fake child, it's an inline element by default and inlines can't clear stuff, so we'll have to make it a block element. We're using the :after pseudo element.
Let's call Content #parent.Your original parent code:
#parent {
all your styles;
#parent:after {
content: " "; /* an empty space. You have to have something as content. Some browsers are okay with a totally empty string but not all, so a space will do it. You can also use nonbreaking (content: "\\0a";) if you want to see it easier*/
display: block; /*only block elements can clear*/
clear: both; /*you have floats in both directions, but also this is often safer than clearing one direction anyway*/
height: 0; /*there are many variations on this, but this one has worked for me cross-browser: don't let this little bit of content actually show up or take any room on the page*/
This will work on most browsers, excluding the ones who don't know these pseudo elements. Which are IE6 and IE7.
Are you supporting IE 6 or 7?
If you are supporting those, then you'll also trigger HasLayout property on the Parent (Haslayout is not on non-compat-mode IE8).If you had set a width on #parent already then your job is done!But if you didn't, setting a dimension like width will do the trick. If your parent was naturally 100% width of the page and you didn't add any stuff to the sides like side padding, side margins or side borders, then you could safely get away with addingwidth: 100%;just for IE6 and 7, but without hacks and out in the open since it can be safe (almost redundant) for all other browsers.
If setting a width isn't an option, you could use one of the old IE6 hacks for feeding info just to that. However you're likely not supporting that one. If you are supporting IE7 though and not 6, it's easier: there are more ways to trigger Haslayout.Setting a min-height or min-width (I like min-height) will trigger haslayout in IE7. It just so happens that setting overflow to something other than "visible" does it too, which is why overflow: hidden works in IE7 (not because parents must see overflowing children, but because HasLayout demands it. IE is silly).
Some other options:
Float Absolutely Everyone!If the #parent were floated, it would already naturally contain any floated children. Floats always enclose floats, all day every day. But if you were hoping to center #parent with auto-margins then you're So Outta Luck. Plus, now someone might need to enclose the #parent! It could turn into an infinite stack of turtles all the way down and cause misery and hair loss. But it's an option.
Display: Table!Tables are static blocks, but specifically a table's display state is display: table, not display: block. Meaning, different rules! Yay. One of these rules is, tables must always contain their children. So you could possibly maybe if you wanted to, set #parent to display: table.However tables suck in so many ways, the most obvious one (for me personally) is this nasty old Netscape bug the Mozillians have decided is some kind of feature, a very special one that no other freaking browsers have, where you can't position: relative someone in the table (or the table itself) and then absolutely-position a child relative to that. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63895Bleh. Tables also do weird things when sizing themselves blah blah. But, you know, the option's there. Bonus points if you've ever done real table-based layouts in the past, cause then you're already aware of table behaviour.
Clearing div!This one causes global warming but also warms the heart of every CMS-built-of-separated-templates in existence.Instead of making a fake child with :after (or :before), just make a real child, in the markup.Psuedo code:

Now it's a real child, and you just.clear { clear: both;}
Sometimes this is the only option, especially in CMSes where the program brings together various chunks of pages, because each chunk can't see any other chunks. Meaning, a container wouldn't know if it had floated children, because Sally Secretary wanted to take your general #content box and have one thing next to another thing, so she told the CMS "set these things side by side" which means it floated them secretly behind her back. Meanwhile, the #content box doesn't know what's been going on inside, and unless you want to take every single container in your CMS and pre-emptively add in clearfixes or overflow:hidden (that one would be rather dangerous), a clearing div may make more sense.
As a note, I've seen more of these "front-end frameworks" like Twitter Bootstrap doing the pre-emptive thing. Every single element who could be a container of some sort gets a super-uber clearfix-like setup (usually with both a :before element AND an :after element, just for kicks and to get around some very tiny unexpected bugs found by Thierry Koblentz I think).
I think I'm forgetting one, but those are the other main options I know of.
display:inline-block on the parent will do it too, as will position: absolute, but the latter would be a very decided last resort in most cases.
@successfulfail If the above is a bit over your head, do let us know. But please post the code you have so far so we can be more specific.
It will trigger Haslayout, so it would for IE6-7.
I'm not sure about other browsers... would depend if inlines had to "contain" other inlines inside them, which actually I didn't think they did, looking at some of David Baron's stuff about lines and line-heights...
*edit nope, you're right. This seems to confirm it, looking around the text, and their example with the
 and  confirms, if you copy it and float the span.
Except IE6 if I recall correctly, related to that "children of abso-po can't haz 100% height" or similar...
Suck it and see, as my graddad would say:

18 wheels poems that move
by hubert meeker
de illustrated by alana kapell
Acerca del libro
His father was a trucker who'd be gone away for weeks. And him the little mucker with the rosy morning cheeks, And a second-hand bike with a wobbly old tire, Which he's peddle on for miles until his butt caught fire.
18 WHEELS POEMS THAT MOVE is a collection of 21 poems that evoke the distances and dissonances of our mobile world. The poems explore how our vehicles shape our relationships, from the strollers we rode in as infants, to our first tryke, our bikes, the family car, the trains and planes that speed the pace of life; and at last, the wheel chair that rolls us to the Exit. Brilliantly illustrated by artist Alana Kapell, these poems arise out of water and earth, and they grow toward the light, and the soaring visions of our last years, in which we come to accept the natural round of life and death. Written in my seventh decade, this is poetry full of movement and wonderment, endings and beginnings.
The loudspeakers announce our flights. We are searched and cleared for imminent departure. It's coming to us all, this last embrace And letting go of everything we were. A leap of engines and the dark earth falls away; Bright sky catches us.

A MAN has been arrested after a serious crash on the M25 caused chaos on south Essex roads.
Motorists faced long delays yesterday morning as two separate crashes caused gridlock.
The first crash happened just after 5am on the London-bound carriageway of the A13 near the Stifford turn-off in Thurrock.
Police were called after a grey Seat Ibiza had overturned and a man, believed to be in his forties, was taken to West Hill Hospital in Kent suffering from chest pains.
Later, police were called to the M25 in Thurrock following a five-vehicle crash. The incident happened shortly after 7am on the anti-clockwise carriageway between the Dartford Tunnel and junction 31.
Three cars, a Mercedes, an S-Max and a BMW, and two heavy goods vehicles were involved in the collision and four people were injured – two of them seriously.
Two women and two men were taken to hospitals in Basildon, Darenth Valley, Romford and Whitechapel.
A 35-year-old man from Chatham, Kent was arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving.
The road was closed for four hours while a police investigation was carried out and the damaged vehicles were removed.
The authorities did suspend tolls at the Dartford Crossing because of the congestion, but barriers remained causing traffic to bottleneck.
Drivers were also caught up in jams as the knock on effect clogged up surrounding roads including the A127. The A130 southbound was also backed up near the Rettendon Turnpike.
A spokesman for the Highways Agency said diversions were put in place while police carried out investigations.
He said: "The M25 was closed northbound between junction 31 and 30 just north of the exit for the tunnel. There was a diversion running between the two taking traffic off at junction 31, along the road parallel and back on at junction 30. There was a tremendous amount of traffic congestion.
"There were delays of 90 minutes."
The road fully reopened at 12.35pm. Any witnesses or anyone with information about events leading up to the M25 crash can contact investigating officer PC Joe Gasparini at the Chigwell road policing office on 101.

A CHARITY appeal to pay for a specially-adapted tricycle for a disabled Blackburn boy is well under way following a tattoo marathon event.
Michelle Egan, 38, who lives in Francis Street, wants to buy the trike for her 13-year-old son Cameron, who suffers from microlissencephaly.
He was born with a very small head, and is blind, and has severe developmental delays.
Michelle lives opposite Tattoo Heaven, in Mill Hill, and tattooists James and Peter offered their services for free to help the fundraising effort.
Friends, family and supporters went to the shop to be inked, and instead of paying James and Peter for their tattoos, the money each design would have cost went towards Cameron's tricycle.
The novel idea raised £505 for Cameron's appeal.
Michelle has also come up with a variety of other ideas to raise the cash, including a fun run to take place in May, and a bag pack at the Asda store in Blackburn, which raised £625.
Michelle and her husband Martin say a trike will give him independence and enjoyment and also help to exercise his legs.
Michelle said: "I live across the road from the tattoo shop and I know the guy so he said let's do a tattoo marathon.
"They've done them before for charity. Most people had tattoos to do with blindness — a ribbon, or a blind man or a quote.
"We've now raised more than £1,000, and the tricycle costs £3,160, so we're well on our way. I want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has helped.
"They don't realise what a big difference they're going to make to Cameron, and we really appreciate it."

Data Sheet
Low Density Voice/Fax Network Modules
for the Cisco 2600, 3600 and 3700 Series Routers
Updated August 2003
Cisco 2600, 3600, and 3700 low density voice/fax network modules provide enterprises, managed service providers and service providers the ability to directly connect the PSTN and legacy telephony equipment to existing Cisco 2600, Cisco 3600, and Cisco 3700 routers. This provides immediate multiservice advantages, such as telephony toll bypass, new packet telephony applications, and full gateway integration within a Cisco AVVID architecture.
Figure 1
NM-2V Module with One Two-Port FXO VIC with battery reversal detection and Caller ID support (VIC-2FXO-M1)
The low density voice/fax network modules for the Cisco 2600, 3600, and 3700 series multiservice access routers enable packet voice technologies including VoIP (H.323, MGCP and SIP), VoFR and VoATM. Cisco voice solutions provide the means for integrating both voice and data within a single network allowing users to take advantage of services, such as toll-bypass, without sacrificing voice quality. Cisco IOS® software also incorporates built-in quality-of-service (QoS) features along with standards-based encapsulation providing efficient direct transport of both voice and fax over IP, Frame Relay and ATM networks. These Cisco IOS solutions enable time-sensitive voice traffic to be moved across even low-bandwidth WAN connections with the priority and quality voice/fax demands. Transporting voice over IP networks continues to provide transport flexibility since IP can be routed across a multitude of WAN technologies (leased lines, Frame Relay, and ATM) along with providing direct connectivity to the desktop.
These low density/fax network modules also provide the gateway to Cisco AVVID architectures for calls to and from the PSTN and legacy telephony equipment (including PBXs, analog telephones, fax machines and key systems). Users can deploy networks which leverage investments in existing legacy telephony equipment while also deploying and integrating IP telephony immediately or in the future. These network modules enable users to operate at any point on the voice, video & data integrated infrastructure spectrum while incrementally adding connections to both legacy telephony and IP telephony on these networks.
The low density voice/fax network modules slide into Cisco 2600, 3600, and 3700 network module slots and contain either one or two voice interface card (VIC) slots. The VICs are daughter cards that slide into the voice/fax network modules and provide the interface to the telephony equipment and the PSTN. Just as the Cisco WAN interface cards can be swapped with other WAN interface cards, the Cisco VICs can be deployed interchangeably with other VICs in the voice/fax network modules. This built-in flexibility and investment protection are key reasons for the world-wide popularity of Cisco modular branch office router products.
VICs currently available include two-port foreign exchange station (FXS), direct inward dial (DID), foreign exchange office (FXO), Centralized Automated Message Accounting (CAMA) and E&M analog interface cards. Also available are a two-port ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) digital interface card providing no phantom power and a two-port ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) digital interface card providing -48V phantom power. These cards cover the entire range of analog connectivity options along with user side Q.931 and QSIG digital BRI connections (see chart). A Cisco 2600 series, including 2691 and 2600XM, or a Cisco 3620 can house one voice/fax module that contains up to two VICs, a Cisco 3640 can house up to three modules with a total of six VICs, and the 3660 holds up to six network modules providing a maximum of 24 analog voice ports. In addition, a Cisco 3725 can house two voice/fax modules with a total of four VICs and a Cisco 3745 can house up to four modules with a total of eight VICs.

text: By MARTIN CRUTSINGERWASHINGTON (AP) â¿¿ U.S. consumers increased their spending in December at a slower pace, while their income grew by the largest amount in eight years. Income surged because companies rushed to pay dividends before income taxes increased on high-earners. The Commerce Department said Thursday that consumer spending rose 0.2 percent last month. That's slightly slower than the 0.4 percent increase in November. Income jumped 2.6 percent in December from November, the biggest gain since December 2004. The main driver of the increase was dividend payments, which companies accelerated to beat the January rise in income tax rates. Wages and salaries grew 0.6 percent. Consumer spending, which accounts for about 70 percent of economic activity, is expected to slow this year. That's because consumers are receiving less take-home pay starting this month because of an increase in Social Security taxes. Analysts predict the January report will show slower income growth because most bonuses and dividends were paid out in December. The increase in payroll taxes already hurt consumer confidence this month. And consumers will have less money to spend at a precarious time. The economy unexpectedly shrank in the October-December quarter at an annual rate of 0.1 percent, the government said Wednesday. The contraction was largely driven by a steep cut in defense spending. Still, the dip was a reminder of the economy's vulnerability as automatic cuts in government spending loom. Still, Paul Dales, senior U.S. economist at Capital Economics, predicts the economy will begin growing again in the January-March quarter. He notes that modest hiring will keep consumers spending enough to keep the economy afloat. He predicts consumer spending will grow at a lackluster 1 percent rate in the first quarter, down from a 2.2 percent rise in consumer spending in the October-December quarter. The December increase in income and slower growth in spending pushed the saving rate to 6.5 percent of after-tax income. That's up from 4.1 percent in November and the highest savings rate since May 2009. It's likely to come down again in January, when income falls back.

A MEPHEDRONE street dealer who was selling drugs from a car was spared jail 'by the skin of his teeth', at Burnley Crown Court.
The hearing was told how Lee Kennedy, 24, had looked extremely nervous and was shaking when spotted by a police officer and she decided to search the vehicle.
She found £200 and a sports bag containing digital scales and a bag of white powder, which turned out to be 30.7 grams of mephedrone, worth £614 on the streets.
Kennedy was arrested and told police: "It's bubble and it's for my own use."
The defendant, of Burnley Road, Accrington, admitted supplying mephedrone and possessing the drug with intent to supply, last August 29.
The court was told the officer saw what she perceived to be an exchange between two men. Kennedy was siting in the driver's seat of the car and a second man ran into a house.
The defendant was interviewed by the police and said some of the drugs would be for himself and he would have sold some to friends to make some money.
Sentencing Kennedy to 10 months in custody, suspended for two years, with supervision and 100 hours unpaid work, Recorder Philip Curran said he had had a 'dealer's kit' in the car.
The judge told the defendant:" It's by the skin of your teeth you are not going to custody. The reason I am giving you a chance is because your pre-sentence report says you are going to turn things around and make life different."

| Advice & News: Kids With Special Needs
A learning disability diagnosis can usher in a challenging time for your family. But understanding the law and what your child is entitled to can spell success for the future.
A learning disability (shorthand: LD) is a neurological disorder that affects a child's ability to process, store, analyze, and retrieve information. Approximately 2.9 percent of school-aged children in the United States are classified as learning disabled and receive special education services.
Learning disabilities can show up in virtually every area of academics: "In math, reading, listening, organization, formulating language and response, and comprehension. It's a complicated set of disabilities, all of which fall under the learning disability umbrella," says Dr. Sheldon Horowitz, director of learning disability resources and essential information at the National Center for Learning Disabilities.
The most prevalent of the learning disabilities is found in reading. Some children are able to sound out words and read but struggle with comprehension. Others can read and understand but struggle with speed and automaticity. Many children also have co-occurring disorders such as autism or ADD/ADHD, a disorder that is commonly confused with learning disabilities. "Kids with learning disabilities and kids with ADD/ADHD often look very much the same because of the way they process, store, analyze, and retrieve information," Dr. Horowitz says. And it's important to recognize that the approaches to treating these special needs are different - and don't have any impact on children with LD.
Diagnosis: LD
Emotions can run high when children are diagnosed with a learning disability. Children may feel lonely and isolated from their peers because they have to go to special classes or because they don't fit in. And parents often feel scared as they wonder, "Is my child stupid or lazy?" Feelings of loneliness, frustration, and anger are common, says Ben Foss, director of access technology in the Digital Health Group at Intel and president of Headstrong Nation, a nonprofit organization, but it's important to recognize that children's difficulties don't make them stupid.
"They have developmental disabilities that inhibit certain functionality, but they also have great creativity and strengths," says Foss, who recommends that educators and parents play to those strengths. Encourage kids to embrace themselves for who they are - and reiterate that LD isn't the only thing about them. A dyslexic himself, Foss knows firsthand what a learning disabled child feels. While in college, Foss (who now holds a J.D./M.B.A. from Stanford University) would fax his term papers to his mother so she could read them to him over the phone.
Dealing with LD is a group effort. Parental support is critical, but so too is having a qualified teacher - one, moreover, with the school behind him or her. When certain methods haven't worked for your child, parents and the school together decide to pursue the special education referral process.
"The most important thing for a child, a parent, and a teacher to work on is for the child to articulate the nature of his or her learning disability," Horowitz says. By becoming their own advocate, children can bridge the gap that sometimes exists between teachers and parents.
It's the Law
The Individuals With Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), formalized in 1975, with amendments made within the last seven years, states that children who have special learning needs are entitled to a "free and appropriate education" (FAPE) in the "least restrictive environment (LRE)." In essence, children diagnosed with LD are entitled to special education services provided by the school district, free of charge, and they cannot be segregated from their general education peers. If however, a child cannot be served in the general education setting, the school district is then obligated to find an appropriate setting at no cost.
Although federal law is clear that each state must provide services and support for children with LD, the ways in which these are implemented depend on the state education mandate, by regulations within the state, and by local practices at the county and school district level.
"These are individual decisions that are made on how educational practices are implemented within the federal guidelines," Horowitz says. And with all the budget cuts school districts are facing, the ways in which services are provided may vary. Although schools are being forced to consolidate services to different groups of kids or to utilize faculty in different ways, they must adhere to IDEA. "There is no loophole for not providing services to kids with special needs," Horowitz says.
First Steps
Your child should be formally evaluated by a licensed learning specialist or clinical psychologist provided free of charge by the school. If you're not satisfied with the timeliness of the evaluation, or you wish to pursue a private evaluation, the costs can range anywhere from $1,000 to $5,000, although insurance may cover it.
After the evaluation, you will have the opportunity to attend the Individualized Education Plan (IEP) meeting and discuss the services the school is recommending. Do your research and come prepared with information and recommendations you believe are appropriate for your child. The IEP is a contract, and the most important document when appropriating services.
"The IEP stipulates that children receive a certain level of instruction at a certain intensity over a certain period of time and that progress be monitored so that [parents] know what is being offered is working," Horowitz explains.
The IEP may stipulate that services be rendered in the general education classroom with special support brought in, in a general education setting where the child is moved to a separate space for part of the day, or that the child is moved to a completely different school or home-schooled. "The key is 'appropriate.' Is what the child is receiving appropriate, and is the child benefiting from that special education service?" Horowitz says.
Accommodations, unlike modifications, don't change what is expected from a child. "These are intelligent kids who have alternate paths to conquering, understanding, and mastering information," Horowitz says. Accommodations may include extended time and alternate test settings; a date book or assistive technology for organization; a note taker; special classroom seating or lighting; typed, double spaced, or large-print handouts; or an alternative keyboard for those with motor challenges. Audio books from organizations like Bookshare® or Recording for the Blind and Dyslexic® and assistive technologies like e-readers, high-speed flatbed scanners, and the Intel Reader (pictured at right) can help students who struggle with reading and comprehension and may be provided free of charge if it's included in the IEP and budgets allow.
Parents as Partners
It's important not to feel pressured to sign anything until you understand exactly what the IEP states and how the recommended services will be implemented. If the IEP is signed and you learn about a new technology that you believe can help your child, for example, you can ask to hold another meeting to revise the IEP.
"There are absolutely ways for this living, breathing document - which is not written in stone and needs to be reviewed on a regular basis throughout the school year - to be amended and updated in ways that are meaningful for the parent and the school," Horowitz says.
These due process rights are articulated at the time you enter the evaluation process, not at the IEP meeting, and all attempts for recourse should be well documented.
Sometimes when parents are not satisfied with the IEP, mediation will take place with a professional mediator, a parent advocate, or even an attorney. Horowitz warns parents not to go into an IEP meeting wanting to do battle; instead, take a 'parents as partners' approach. "When parents and schools finally sit down and talk, they realize that they're both interested in the same thing, and they can put together a plan that really does work."
Other Impairments
For some children who have physical or mental impairments that impact their learning time, yet are not eligible for special education services, the 504 plan, or section 504 of the Rehabil-itation Act of 1973, can provide services for them. This civil rights law prohibits discrimination against children with disabilities and states that the school must provide accommodations so the student can participate in the general education setting. The evaluation and process for receiving these services is different from the process for pursuing special education services. Visit www.nymetroparents.com/504comparison for a chart detailing how 504 and IDEA work with each other and complement one another, so you as the parent can better assist your child's educational team in ensuring your child's right to a free and appropriate education.

Hi everyone,
I have taken a screenshot to demonstrate what I'm talking about here.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/630 ... .50.31.png
See my function at the top is green, but when I call it later in the script, it is not highlighted. I've tried a bunch of different themes and can't get the function to highlight on any of them, not even in the eclipse 'default'. This is ok now but when my scripts are much bigger, it's going to be a pain not being able to see easily where functions have been called.
I don't know whether this is a pydev/eclipse thing because xcode works just fine with my c++ scripts, highlights no problems.
Maybe there is a setting I have not seen but I've looked through all the menus and can't find where to do this. I am using EgoV2 theme. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
I add another screenshot of the area which shows the functions should be in green:

The Strange, Working Romance of Fritz Lang and Thea von Harbou
(via RESTAURIERUNG: DER MÜDE TOD | Murnau Stiftung)
Happy 125th birthday, Fritz Lang!
dreamscape, nightmare, city: the weirded urbanisms of German expressionist film
To celebrate the launch of my Phish mystery The Ashakiran Tape, we projected the Magnaball webcast on our neighbors' walls here in Dakar. That's the African Renaissance Monument and the lighthouse of Mamelles behind Page's head in the last shot.
The Ashakiran Tape (Head Cases Vol 1) is now available.
Here's the pitch for my new book, available 9/15/15. The cover is by Rhonda Ratray. Like Head Cases on Facebook. More are jurgenfauth.com.
"Read the fucking book!" – Trey Anastasio
From the author of the historical thriller Kino, a "fast, complex, exhilarating roadster ride through history and time" (Frederick Barthelme) comes a gripping psychedelic mystery steeped in sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll.
When legendary improvisational rock band Phish returns to the stage after a five-year breakup, longtime fan and hardboiled hippie sleuth Quentin Pfeiffer has to be there — even though he is older, wiser, and the father of an adorable baby daughter now.
But not everything is sunshine and rainbows in the freewheeling circus surrounding the band's summer tour: after the millionaire skipper of a drug-drenched luxury yacht goes missing, Q and his crew are drawn into a dangerous intrigue of dreadlocked dames, shady tape collectors, and spun-out wookies chasing after the long-lost recording of a mysterious late-night jam.
Inspired by Raymond Chandler and set during a series of concerts at Long Island's Jones Beach amphitheater, The Ashakiran Tape takes readers deep into the spiraling ecstasy of Phish's epic shows and the seductive underworld of the obsessive fans following them.
Praise for Kino:
"Kino is an intoxicating Euro-brew, written with enormous skill and dedication." – Frederick Barthelme
"A debut of great intellectual force." – Teddy Wayne
"A delirious melange of conspiracy, magic, sex, history, bad behavior, and cinema, Kino is a stellar entertainment, and Jurgen Fauth is a writer of rare, sinister imagination." – Owen King

AGM130 - Sunday, February 15, 2004 - linkAnymore word on weather or not the A64 will drop in price? I have my debit card in a holster, just waiting! Reply
KristopherKubicki - Wednesday, February 04, 2004 - linkTrogdor, have you any other memory to test it with? I have not heard great things about Geil recently. I am not sure...
Kristopher Reply
TrogdorJW - Wednesday, February 04, 2004 - linkFor Athlon 64 (socket 754), you list the MSI Neo FIS2R as a recommendation. Having just built one last weekend, I have to say that everything was great... except for the memory support. 1GB Geil Golden Dragon PC3200 2-3-3-6 timings would not run stable. I tried quite a few settings, but finally dropped to DDR333 to get it stable. So that's probably why it has this huge price drop: people are learning that it isn't very stable. Just my two cents. Make sure you get RAM that you know will run in the MSI board! Reply
KristopherKubicki - Tuesday, February 03, 2004 - linkKeith:
"Your indication that the 3000+ A64 model would drop is incorrect (I already have the new pricelist), A64 pricing will not be cut"
I have heard about vendors say both will be cut. Please email me -
I do agree AMD has been much better with paper launches since the A64 introduction. This does only account for 4 processors but its a good start.
Kristopher Reply
KeithDust2000 - Tuesday, February 03, 2004 - linkAlso this: "You may recall that Opteron 248 was first announced at COMDEX 2003. Here we are two months later, and retail wise the 248 and 848 is virtually non-existent. We have seen a few chips here and there for review samples, but it appears that both AMD and Intel embrace the paper launch with open arms.
The 248 model has become available from Monarch at launch day, and they have it in stock today. The 848, at a cost of more than $3000, is hardly a retail product, it´s not like 4way is the enthusiast´s choice. The P4EE wasn´t available anywhere for many months after introduction, so please don´t lump these together. AMD had terrible execution in earlier years, but since the Opteron launch, this has changed significantly, and it would be great if your statements would acknowledge that.
KeithDust2000 - Tuesday, February 03, 2004 - linkChristopher, maybe you should check this review of the Athlon 64 3000+ from Anandtech
to see that the 3000+ is much more comparable to the P4 3.2 Ghz instead of the 2.8 Ghz model, as you try to make it seem. The only relevant mainstream area where the 2.8Ghz model would be faster would be on certain encoding tasks, and those people who mainly encode video all day (???) and think a few percent faster really matter for them should choose that model. Others are surely better served by the 3000+. Your indication that the 3000+ A64 model would drop is incorrect (I already have the new pricelist), A64 pricing will not be cut, only AXP pricing will, and your guess that the 3000+ would be cut to 2.8Ghz P4 level is wrong, and wouldn´t make sense based on its performance and feature advantages (Cool´n´quiet etc.). It stays at the P4 3 Ghz level, which is more than adequate, considering what Anandtech (and everyone else) found out about it.
As for your question:
"When was the last time we saw a solid launch and release date from either AMD or Intel in the past 2 years?"
A64 launched exactly on the day that AMD set many months before. It was available at launch day. The same is true for the FX, 3400+, and the 3000+ actually launched ahead of schedule. That is unlike the P4EE, or the Prescott.
Buying the 3000+ doesn´t lead to a dead-end either, as it will be at least viable for the 3700+, and AMD has on Aceshardware given the indication that 90nm processors would also be made available for S754 boards.
As for a dryup of Athlon XP parts, that is not what channel checks indicate.
Just FYI. Reply

1000 Facials Steven French - Carmella Bing and her big tits
She may have the best all natural rack this business has seen in more than a decade if they're fake she isn't admitting it and we aren't going to complain. Carmella Bing is a 26 year old brunette with 34F breasts and in her mind "F" stands for FUCK! She oils them up and plays with them right in front of you because she knows you want more. Tit-fucking a top heavy honey like Carmella is more fun than most girls can give you even if you let them use all three holes. If you don't want to clean the oil off your rod don't bother a helpful whore like Carmella is always willing to throat your shaft and clean your balls with her mouth until they sparkle. She'll get on top and fuck you if you want so you can enjoy her tits in your mouth - but you can always nail her from behind if you'd rather go for maximum thrust speed and depth. Just remember this is 1000 Facials so when it's time to pop... you know where to aim!Carmella has perfect tits but her face is where you want to leave your load

FREE (and bargain) books for the Kindle - May 2011
It's a new month and there are new freebies. Several bargains from last month remain, so be sure to check the previous thread,
This is the sticky thread for free and bargain books in the Kindle store for May 2011. Rather than try to update the first post with a list of all the books, which is continually changing, instead new books will be posted at the end of the thread and each month there will be a new thread, letting the old one drop off the top of the forum. Anyone can post to the thread, but there are a few rules:
Only books in the kindle store. Yes, I realize that free books elsewhere will often work on the Kindle, but those should be reported in the Deals forum. This list is for those who only get their books from the Kindle store (and there are many who do) and don't want to deal with having to download and transfer books from elsewhere.
Do not edit old messages to add new books. Most people read this thread by clicking to see new posts. If you edit old messages, then no one is notified of a new post and often won't see the updates when they click to see new messages. If you need to edit an old message to correct a link or other info (or even want to note a book that is no longer free), that is perfectly ok.
No shortened URL's. No one likes to click on a link and end up somewhere that they were not expecting and few of the URL shorteners allow you to set up a preview mode so that you get a chance to see the destination first. So, use the full URL in your posting (yes, you can still just post a link on the title, but with the full URL, everyone can look at the status line or use Copy Shortcut to see where they will go before the new site opens).
No author self-promotions (unless your book is free in the Kindle store) or self-published books. If you are a Kindle author and posting another's work, it should be either a non-self-published book or one that you've read to the end and would not feel embarrassed to recommend to your mother, closest friends and priest/minister (assuming they read the same genre). In other words, the writing is exceptional (no misspellings or substituted words, grammar rules obeyed formatting that looks good on the Kindle screen). It isn't that we don't want you to post, but author self-promotions can overwhelm the list and a special child forum in the Deals and Bargains section has been provided for this purpose.
No excerpts or sample chapters (business minis are ok, so long as they are not just samples of another book)
Please indicate the price of any book that is not being offered free. You don't have to say "free" if one is, but it would be nice if you include that in the message. The maximum price for bargains is a bit flexible, but generally under $2 and nothing over $5, unless it is a volume that contains several titles in one and the total price per book puts it into the bargain realm or the digital price is below 25% of the list print price and 50% of the digital list price; this lets you include high priced reference books or cookbooks that are extremely heavily discounted, for one reason or another (but, let's not include books that Amazon has at $9.99 all the time, ok?).
If you see the genre of a book and it isn't clear from the book description that you post, please include it; conversely, if someone leaves this off, don't post to berate them, but you can post to include that info for others.
If you are posting a book that is free in the UK Amazon store, please say so. Also, if you do not have your current location set in your profile (below your name, it shows next to all of your posts), then add that to your post (as it "this is free here in Canada").
To all:
please note that whether or not a book is free in a country other than the one a person is logged into is not easily discovered. The person who posts often has no way to determine that you will pay a different amount if you are in a different country. Also, prices at Amazon can change minute to minute and freebies can last as little as an hour (possibly less), so always check the price before one-clicking. If you discover that a book costs more (other than the "standard" $2+VAT international fee Amazon often takes onto books outside the US), you may leave a single comment with the country and price/restriction (for example: "This book costs $9.99 in the UK" or "Not available in Canada").
Try to keep chit-chat to a minimum. That will keep notifications of a new message in the thread down to (generally) only when a new book has been posted, making the thread more useful for all.
If you agree or disagree with the rules, have more to be added, etc, please send me a private message, rather than replying here. I'll discuss it with the moderators and we'll modify as needed.

The Australian dollar fell against its US counterpart on Friday after China's official measure of manufacturing surprised on the downside, but the Aussie scaled fresh four-year peaks against the yen.
The Aussie dropped a third of a US cent to $US1.0388 on the day, closing in on a one-month low of $US1.0380 hit on Thursday. It had already been dragged lower by a broadly stronger euro and a firm kiwi dollar, with mixed data out of China only adding to the pain.
China's official purchasing managers' index (PMI) surprised on the downside, suggesting the economy is making only a mild recovery. In contrast, HSBC's reading of the same activity unexpectedly climbed to a two-year peak, confusing the issue.
"The official PMI got more credibility (today) because the number was lower," said Matthew Johnson, rate strategist at UBS, explaining why markets sold the Aussie dollar.
The Australian currency is very sensitive to news out of China, its key export market.
All eyes are now on the US non-farm payrolls (NFP) report with a weak reading likely to see further pressure on the Aussie, according to UBS's Johnson.
Forecasts centred on a rise of 160,000 jobs and the unemployment rate to remain steady at 7.8 per cent.
Also hurting the Aussie was a racy euro rallying to a 13-month peak and an invigorated kiwi dollar which climbed to its highest since September 2011.
The New Zealand currency extended overnight gains after the country's central bank governor reinforced that low inflation and financial stability would remain his key focus.
The Aussie hit fresh peaks against the yen, aided by a move higher in euro/yen and dollar/yen. Aussie flew to 95.79 yen, its strongest since August 2008, eyeing key retracement level at 98.40 and possibly all the way up to 104.50.
Australian government bond futures fell near their weakest levels since May, with the three-year contract 0.060 points lower at 97.130. The 10-year contract also slipped 0.066 points to 96.510.


text: TheAtom 330 Report post Posted February 9, 2013 Tested on rev1549. The bug is sporadic and difficult to pinpoint, its root cause is likely in the bytecode generation rather than bytecode restoration. In a script with a registerd value-type variable placed in the global scope, sometimes another function is called instead of the variable's type constructor when the script is loaded from the bytecode. Loading the script from the source is without problems. When loading from the generated bytecode, it either works correctly all of the time (for that generated bytecode), or it consistently calls the same, wrong function (which has no special relation to the correct one). Whether the bytecode is buggy or not seems to depend on things like order of compilation of scripts or whether some script was compiled prior to the one in question. Calling the wrong function naturally leads to bad behaviour, here is the call stack I get when I stumble upon a resulting crash: CallCDeclFunctionObjFirst + 38, as_callfunc_x86.cpp (494) CallSystemFunctionNative + 885, as_callfunc_x86.cpp (207) CallSystemFunction + 294, as_callfunc.cpp (486) asCContext::ExecuteNext + 2756, as_context.cpp (2450) asCContext::Execute + 521, as_context.cpp (1158) asCModule::CallInit + 337, as_module.cpp (310) asCModule::ResetGlobalVars + 31, as_module.cpp (254) asCReader::Read + 278, as_restore.cpp (98) asCModule::LoadByteCode + 111, as_module.cpp (1189) Maybe it is important that there could be some functions etc. that are registered to the engine after some scripts are already compiled (or loaded from the bytecode). This never caused any problems before though. For the record, the value-type in question is registered this way: if(ASEngine->RegisterObjectType("FuncBind", sizeof(ScriptFuncBind), asOBJ_VALUE) < 0) Log("%s FuncBind\n", fail); if(ASEngine->RegisterObjectBehaviour("FuncBind", asBEHAVE_CONSTRUCT, "void f()", asFUNCTION(ScriptFuncBind_Construct), asCALL_CDECL_OBJFIRST) < 0) Log("%s FuncBind ctor\n", fail); if(ASEngine->RegisterObjectBehaviour("FuncBind", asBEHAVE_DESTRUCT, "void f()", asFUNCTION(ScriptFuncBind_Destruct), asCALL_CDECL_OBJFIRST) < 0) Log("%s FuncBind dtor\n", fail); 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Step into the San Francisco offices of Climate Corporation, and the first thing you see is a giant suspended globe. It is a dramatic representation of the power of big data: cloud formations move across it in real time, attesting to the level of detail with which the company captures and models weather information.
Now, with Climate Corp's sale to Monsanto for an up-front payment of $930m (with more cash set aside for staff retention), the big data business has its first significant acquisition, and an important vindication for those who argue that data analytics is becoming a competitive differentiator.

- Majors and Programs
The Geophysics program at Saint Louis University
Degrees: Bachelor of Science in Geophysics
Overview: Geophysics is the study of the Earth.
Curriculum: Areas of study include earth's dynamic systems, mineralogy, petrology, structural geology, seismology and engineering physics.
Careers in the Field: A degree in the geosciences prepares students for a variety of interesting careers. Many geoscientists work in industry or for government agencies concerned with oil and natural gas exploration and production, mining, water resources, civil engineering, waste and pollution management, environmental impact assessment, conservation and land management, policy analysis and implementation education. A valuable asset that students acquire in our program is the solid background in critical thinking, effective communication and computer use. A minor in the geosciences is an excellent complement to a major in biology, chemistry, physics, engineering, environmental law, or journalism.
Faculty Members: Drs. Crossley, Herrmann, Warren, Zhu.

"Our "Bridal Brunch" invitations are absolutely perfect. I got just the right look I was going for, and have received many compliments from the invited guests."
"This invitation was very easy to personalize and the final product is excellent. I was concerned about shipping time so I paid for expedited shipping. The invitations arrived in perfect condition in just 3 days."
"I just loved these invitations! Great quality paper, very thick. Worth the price. Shipping was very fast. Can't wait to mail them to the guests! I ordered my wedding invitations from Wedding Paper Divas a few years ago and was very happy."
"I am hosting a bridal shower in a local pub and this invitation was perfect for the occasion. The design team handled all my changes easily. I removed the times from the two circles because I thought it was confusing. I added the registry and hostesses names to the back side. I chose the pearl shimmer finish with regular corners. It turned out perfectly. Utilize the designer review and you can't go wrong."
"The cards came out just as I imagined and I received it faster than I thought! Definitely planning to purchase more for any other event in the future!"

Patch 5.0.4 Cool Stuff #3 - Account wide Achievements but I'm still #1
So despite account wide achievements, the guild tab still shows character achievements rather than personal ones. Which means... I may not have the most achievements on my personal toons out of my guildies, but on a toon level, I'm still number #1. HELL YEAH!
I have to say when I saw people getting 100,000 Valor points and 100,000 Honor Kills I was pretty impressed. Yay to everyone who got a few extra achievements (Falln said he got Master of Warsong Gulch through account wide achieves GRATS!).
OK, now I'm gonna have to work hard again to keep ahead of these guys sneaking up...

Did Falln get Master of Warsong Gulch because of the wins achievement? I noticed that at least the display of wins isn't account wide, but I'm not sure if getting 100 across account will actually give you the achieve.ReplyDelete
It seems like they should update the guild achievement numbers to match the account wide numbers otherwise there will still be incentive to do everything on one char.

So I'm 25, have a wife and a 3 yr old daughter, and I've spent some time making myself reasonably happy with my knowledge of retirement savings options as well as educational savings options for my daughters future. The two issues seem to be very similar (both long term oriented for me, various IRA options, tax deferred or exempt goals, determining the level of diversification for security and risk for growth potential) with only a limited amount of different factors and options that I believe I've got at least a handle on.
Short term savings however seem to be an altogether different question. Government bills/notes, Money Market Deposits/Funds, various bond options, CDs, I shutter to think of how long I could spend reading computer screens worth of descriptions, Pros/Cons, opinions and options. I've read some general guides as to how to calculate what short-term savings needs and I've got a list of the general pro's and con's of what appear to be most of the options but I'm not close to being secure in my understanding of most of these, nor could I make a decision right now as to where to go with how much.
I know that some people see "financial" questions as more personal than even "bedroom issues" at times but there appear to be a good number of ... lets just say "out of your 20s" folks here. Does anyone have any experience with short term savings, understanding, or preferences they'd be willing to share?

Bridgwater & Albion II 19, Clevedon II 21
A SPIRITED display from Bridgwater & Albion II was not enough to prevent them slipping to a narrow two-point defeat at the hands of league leaders Clevedon.
Bridgwater started strongly in attack and defence, with large parts of the game played in the Clevedon half.
On the ten minute mark, Ranson burrowed his way over for the first try after some good forward work.
Pippard added the extras with a good kick - and Albion soon added a second as Ward jinked his way over following good work from Sturdy.
Clevedon responded with two unconverted tries and a penalty to take a 13-12 lead - the first of which saw winger Burns, who was later sin-binned for dissent, ghost around the outside to score in the corner.
Clevedon then scored a further penalty to extend their lead to 16-12, but Bridgwater then pulled themselves together to get back into the Clevedon half, earning themselves a penalty.
Pippard sent the ball to touch and from the lineout, Bridgy set the drive and Ranson flopped over the line for his second of the afternoon, to regain the lead.
Pippard again converted to extend the lead to 19-16 with seven minutes remaining.
Almost immediately, Clevedon hit back with another try courtesy of a neat finish - and this proved to be the winning score as Blundell's powerful run into Clevedon territory resulted in the ball being kicked out to bring a close to a thoroughly entertaining game of rugby.

S.A. Symphony: Lang-Lessing's Sibelius was like hearing it anew
Updated 1:59 am, Sunday, May 5, 2013
The San Antonio Symphony performance of the Jean Sibelius Symphony No. 5 on Friday night was so good it almost makes one mad at conductor Sebastian Lang-Lessing.
Why did the symphony's music director, now near the end of his third season, keep so long from the San Antonio audience his sweeping gift for directing Sibelius?
As much as one might know the exaltations of the Fifth Symphony from recordings or other live performances, it is unlikely anyone has heard the fresh beauty and glory Lang-Lessing presented to the 1,500 people in the audience.
The sense of a special interpretation started from the opening measures as the flutes sounded like birds chirping their welcome for the sunrise as Sibelius' native Finland awakes from its long, dark winter.
The orchestral crescendo later in the first movement was like a dam burst of emotion. Lang-Lessing's shaping unfolded in a way that it was easy to detect the nationalism as well as the music's connection to the rhythms of nature.
The final movement, with its swaying, polyphonic melodies, was oceanic, an out-of-body sensation from the surges of pure beauty and autumnal ripeness. The concluding orchestral blows were delivered powerfully to sound like Norway's doors closing for the next long winter season.
News Channel
The Beethoven Fourth Piano Concerto before intermission came off with mixed success. Pianist Andreas Bach, a touring soloist and German university professor, had technique to spare, achieving plenty of sparkle.
But Bach's start-stop phrasing had no flow, and the tone from the Steinway was cold and steely.
Bach's approach contrasted with the warm tenderness Lang-Lessing brought out from the orchestra, especially the violas and basses in the last movement.
The concert opened with Giuseppe Verdi's Overture from "Nabucco," the early opera that lifted Verdi to prominence. Lang-Lessing expressed Verdi's trademark theatricality and tricky rhythms with a precise baton and nuanced dynamics.
The program repeated Saturday night at the Majestic Theatre downtown.

A record number of active members and veterans of the military took advantage of grants from the Pentagon Federal Credit Union Foundation in 2012, enabling them to become first-time homebuyers.
The foundation's Dream Makers Program provided grants totaling $823,000 in 2012, up from $453,000 in 2011, according to Kate Kohler, chief operating officer for the foundation and former Army captain. The grants assist homebuyers with the closing costs and down payments associated with buying a home.
Kohler attributed the rise in grant requests to word of mouth from brokers and within the military community. The foundation, which relies on donations from the private sector, has doubled its revenue in the past three years, she says, enabling it to fulfill the grant requests. "We're very proud of that because we've been successful in a challenging economic environment," she adds. "But this idea of giving people their first home has really resonated with donors and with the community."
All who apply and meet the requirements will receive a grant, according to Kohler. To qualify, military members or veterans must be first-time homebuyers or have lost a home through divorce or disaster and be below certain income limits, among other requirements. They must also attend a homebuying education seminar. "We are a national charity that provides grants and loans, but our mission is to provide financial literacy," Kohler explains.
Kohler says the Dream Makers program helps to solve homeownership challenges specific to those in the military. For example, she says, they might have enough cash flow to meet the monthly mortgage payments, but haven't saved enough for a down payment. Or, because they've been deployed for short periods around the world, they're paying rent instead of building up equity through homeownership.
"The costs of buying a home are often barriers to the military members who are not compensated well," she says. "The grant lowers that hurdle."

SSC Player of the Year Earns NSCAA Academic Honor
SAINT LEO, Fla. – The Sunshine State Conference's Player of the Year proved that her talent was evident across the nation, both on the field and in the classroom as Saint Leo women's soccer player Pia Soesemann was named to the National Soccer Coaches Association of America Scholar All-America Third Team. Soesemann was invited to Baltimore, Md. over the weekend of January 15 to be recognized for her accomplishments with her peers at the NSCAA national convention.
One of just 76 senior college players in the nation named to the 2010 NSCAA Women's Collegiate Scholar All-America Team, Soesmeann was selected to an elite group that includes NCAA Division I, II and III student-athletes.
Scoring 19 goals in 2010, the native of Berlin, Germany single-handedly revived a stagnant Saint Leo offense at midseason. In the second half of the year, she exploded for 11 goals, scoring in five consecutive games. Sparking her team, the forward helped take the Lions from a 4-6-1 record to finish the season at 9-7-1 and another Sunshine State Conference tournament berth.
She finished 2010 with the Sunshine State Conference's Player of the Year Award and a first-team selection to the NSCAA's All-Region team.
Academically, the junior is also a heavyweight in the classroom as she carries a 3.88 grade-point average in the dual fields of History and International Studies. A stellar student, Soesemann has appeared in the Saint Leo President's Club five-times, the Division II Athletic Directors Academic Achievement Award List, the Saint Leo Dean's List and a member of the Sunshine State Conference Commissioner's Honor Roll.
To be nominated for consideration, student-athletes must have at least a 3.30 cumulative grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) throughout their career; start more than 50 percent of all games and be a significant contributor to the team; be nominated by an institution that is a current NSCAA College Services member; be a junior or above in academic standing at the current institution and either be in their second year at the current school if a transfer student.
Soesemann, along with fellow Saint Leo student-athlete and men's soccer player Bruce Cutler, was honored at last weekend ceremony. Pictures and a recap of their visit to Baltimore are planned to be posted on SaintLeoLions.com in the near future.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The City Council unanimously passed its $945 million 2012-13 budget Tuesday night, ensuring cuts and layoffs at public libraries, the Sheriff's Office and city maintenance programs.
The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office took a $12.5 million hit and was forced to eliminate 241 positions, which include community patrol officers and some civilian workers.
The only real pleas to the council at the meeting were members of the public asking the council to go easy on the libraries which is seeing cuts in staffing and hours. However, to save the city up to $4 million a year in salaries, 150 city workers were laid off, including library employees. The Public Library System will have to eliminate Sunday service and reduce hours during the rest of the week.
In total, the budget slashes about $1.5 million in funding for mowing along city roads. That means roads will be mowed just four times a year rather than eight.
"I think the sheriff issue and, of course, the risk management issue came up at the last minute, and I think those were handled at the finance committee this past week," City Councilman Matt Schellenberg said. "I think that mostly it's balanced, and I think there is concern about going forward, the economy. And if the economy stays where we are, I think we're OK."
The vote came after months of discussions and several public hearings about the issues at stake at City Council meetings.
Council member Don Redman's proposed amendment to get rid of Jacksonville's Human Rights Commission failed.
"There was some things I think we could do without that we are still funding that are not essential," he said.
Reggie Brown said the city will suffer from less funding to things public works and parks programs.
"There's some things that I would like to do differently. This is what I would like the taxpayers to understand. It's all about the character of the city... We took some hard cuts," he said.

When I was growing up, I managed to convince mom and dad that going to baseball games was the thing to do for summer vacation.
There was the all the times going to St. Louis for Cards games at old Busch Stadium and chasing ballplayers outside the stadium and nearby hotels for autographs. I learned all the right exit gates and hotel doors to stake out. Great memories.
Late in my college years we made a trip East to visit my grandmother in Virginia. Naturally, we made stops to Toronto, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh to take in baseball games.
Well, fast forward many years later, and things haven't changed much. I've still been able to make side trips to the ballparks.
On the way to our most recent vacation to Myrtle Beach, the Hieronymus family planned to make a stop in Cincinnati to see my niece Ashley Schrader, a former BCR sports correspondent who is interning at the Western and Southern Tennis Open. I mentioned something to our travel director, aka my wife, about going to a Reds game if they were home that night. Well, they were, and it just so happened to be the Cardinals. I had no prior knowledge of this event. Honest.
It was nice to finally see a new ballpark up close and personal that I've seen only on TV the past 10 years. It's nestled right along the riverfront that makes for a picturesque setting. It's only a six-hour drive to the Queen City and I would definitely put that on your park to do list. That the Cards won 13-3 was a bonus.
I learned the origin of the name Great American, comes from Great American Insurance, which signed a 30-year naming lease with the Reds when the park was built in 2003. Great American has a towering building overlooking the park.
I tried to imagine where the old Riverfront Stadium was that I attended years ago. At least I think I had the right site.
Any time you get to the ballpark, it's surely a Great American vacation.
Passing time later on the trip, I made a list of all the ballparks I've attended games at over the years. I came up with 23 parks in 15 cities, 13 of which are no longer in existence or used for baseball. In eight of those cities, I've seen games at two or more parks.
This list includes Riverfront, Three Rivers in Pittsburgh, Tiger Stadium, Comiskey Park, old Yankee Stadium, Cleveland Municipal Stadium and its successor Progressive Field, the Metro Dome in Minneapolis, Candlestick Park in San Fran, Royals Stadium, Fulton County Stadium in Atlanta and County Stadium in Milwaukee, and of course, Busch Stadium II in St. Louis, with its magnificent arch-themed roof top.
I've been to Fenway Park in Boston and Wrigley Field in Chicago, the two oldest parks still being used today, and the more newer parks like Citizen's Bank Park in Philadelphia, and Miller Park in Milwaukee.
I attended the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, which is now home (Turner Field) for the Braves, but didn't count that on my list nor St. Petersburg, Fla., where I saw a NCAA tournament game. In Oakland, I managed to walk through an open gate on a non-game day. I've also driven by four parks out of season, but didn't count them either.
There are 14 current stadiums that I've never seen or attended so I guess we've got some more trips to make. I'd really love to see PNC Park in Pittsburgh, AT&T Park in San Fran and Target Field in Minneapolis one day.
I know there are many of you who share my love for ballparks, like Jim Wimbiscus of Spring Valley. I'd love to hear all the parks you've been to. Send me an email and I can post your list here on my column online.
• Hieronymus Seafood: Along with the beach, another highlight of our vacation was a stop at Hieronymus Seafood Restaurant in Wilmington, N.C. for daughter Brynn's 11th birthday. The founding family of this establishment are distant relatives, and although the new ownership didn't offer any kind of family discount, the meal was great.
• Condolences: I'd like to offer my condolences to Arlene and the family of Walt Windt after his recent passing. Walt was the man who hired me for my first coaching job at PHS when he was the AD. I always found him to be a very nice and humble man and I understand he dominated those PHS staff basketball games back in the day. Also loved those steak dinners he held at the end of each track season.
Also, my condolences to J.A. Happ and his family for the loss of his grandfather, Tony Mertel of Peru. I understand he was a grand man. J.A. pitched with a heavy heart Monday in Toronto before returning home.

Topic: Update on my father
My dad has had some bowel & urine problems. He has seen the GI dr. & she did bloodwork this past Monday. His bilirubin count is down from 14 in the hospital to 4.3. He doesn't look jaundiced very much anymore. Right now his problem is that fact that he is not drinking for fear of urinating. I am trying to convince him to let me take him to the ER & get a cathater, but he won't hear of it. I feel that when it gets too bad, he will finally let me take him to the ER. I was able to finally get all the test results & lab reports from the hospital. I'm very sad to see the CA19-9 level. I knew the dr. in the hospital had told us he did the tumor markers blood work, but we weren't informed of any numbers. Sadly, the number I am seeing is 18,825. This seems unreal! I have been researching the numbers on this test & I find normals are under 40. I have seen where some people's are in the low thousands, but this is incredibly high. Has anyone ever heard of a CA19-9 being this high? I'm fearing the end is sooner that we are prepared for.
