how to complement
results with tables ?Part-5
Tables that tell what happened can quickly become filled with superfluous detail.
For example, if you present the number of fatal myocardial infarctions and strokes, and the total number of deaths due to cardiovascular disease, you need not present the number of other cardiovascular deaths.
Again, the percentages should all refer to the same denominator (all deaths).
If you want to indicate what proportion of cardiovascular deaths was due to strokes, do so in text: "Stroke was responsible for 28% of the deaths due to cardiovascular diseases"(Table 6.15).
There is another way to present the same data, this time emphasizing the proportions of death due to each cause, rather than the absolute risk of each cause (Table 6.16). In this table, it is somewhat easier to see that cardiovascular diseases caused about half of the deaths, and cancer about one-third.
When you are presenting comparisons of two or more groups, you are presenting two types of information:
the measurements themselves in each of the groups, and
the differences between the groups.
You must decide which of those two types of information is more important because that will influence how you organize the table.
Consider emphasizing the Table 6.17, which compares the characteristics of patients with asthma and those with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in a study of the effects of intensive vacuuming of the subjects' carpets.
Here the emphasis is on the characteristics themselves, rather than on the differences between the two types of patients. Everyone already knows that the two types of patients are very different. A simple indication that there were statistically significant differences is all that is needed.
When the emphasizing the emphasis is on the comparison-as in a randomized trial comparing a drug and a placebo, or in a study to determine the predictors of response to vacuuming-more is required.
The reader will not only want to know if there is a statistically significant difference, but the size of that difference. In this case, the table must include a measure of that effect size, and an estimate of how precisely the effect size was measured (its confidence interval; Table 6.18).
Comparing emphasizing the an intervention group and a control group works fine for a randomized trial, but problems arise when one applies the same idea to a case-control or cohort study to compare cases who developed the outcome with those who did not (Table 6.19).
Table 6.19 emphasizing the may look great, but it is terribly misleading. The reader will have to work hard to realize that the table does not indicate that 33% ofthe subjects with a history of diabetesdeveloped strokes during the study; rather, 33%ofthose with strokeshad diabetes.
It emphasizing the is even harder to grasp the relation between stroke and the number of previous myocardial infarctions. The table fails to present what the reader wants to know: namely ,whether the number of previous myocardial infarctions affects the incidence of stroke. Table 6.20 does a better job.
Putting the emphasizing the numbers in parentheses keeps the reader from being distracted from the purpose of the table, which is to demonstrate the incidence of stroke according to selected characteristics.
The emphasizing the text that accompanies the table might simply read, "There were similar numbers of men and women in the study (Table 6.11);33% of the subjects were over 65years of age, and 25% were more than 10 kg above ideal body weight. Most were free of chronic medical problems."
The emphasizing the extremely high rate of stroke in subjects with two or more prior myocardial infarctions can be disclosed in the text: "The risk of stroke was 56% (20/36) among those subjects with two or more previous myocardial infarctions."
Tables that are intended to show more complicated effects-such as the effects of smoking in men and in women-should use column subheaders for these subgroup or "nested" comparisons.
The nested effects-such as the effects of smoking in men and in women-should use comparison should be the one that is more important, because the data in the table will be displayed side by side, and thus will be easier to compare. Table 6.21, for example, emphasizes the differences between smokers and nonsmokers: Smokers weigh less, and have higher hemoglobin levels and leukocyte counts. This is true for both men and women.
Reversing effects-such as the effects of smoking in men and in women-should use the nesting process yields a table with the same information, but in a much less accessible format. While Table 6.22 shows that men are heavier-and have greater hemoglobin concentrations-than women, the effects of smoking are obscured.
Neither effects-such as the effects of smoking in men and in women-should use Table 6.21 nor Table 6.22 highlights another important result: that the effects of smoking status on body weight are greater in women (smokers weigh 11 kg less than nonsmokers) than in men (a difference of 4 kg). In this case, because this is the only sex-specific difference, it will suffice to mention it in text.
Neither Table 6.21 nor effects-such as the effects of smoking in men and in women-should use Table 6.22 highlights another important result: that the effects of smoking status on body weight are greater in women (smokers weigh 11 kg less than nonsmokers) than in men (a difference of 4 kg). In this case, because this is the only sex-specific difference, it will suffice to mention it in text.
If there are effects-such as the effects of smoking in men and in women-should use several such differences, then two more columns should be added to the table, and labeled as the difference between smokers and nonsmokers for both men and women.
But if these differences, or lack thereof are very important-for example, if your research question addresses them-then a separate table of the sex-specific differences, with confidence intervals, should be included (Table 6.23).
In some circumstances, there may not be a "control" group, so there is no "control column." Instead, a final column of averages should be included. Similarly, a final row of averages may also be useful (Table 6.24).
Table 6.24 is challenging, but with a little effort, one can determine what percentage of fourth-year students were women (46%), what percentage elected each of the possible training choices (14% chose pediatrics), and the differences by type of training program. The table does not tell you the percentage of women who chose psychiatry training programs; if that information was of primary interest, then the rows and columns should have been reversed.
Look at Table 6.31, which compares pediatric patients less than 2 years old under- going surgery for congenital abnormalities at two university hospitals (Group I) and three community hospitals (Group II). Now, ask yourself, how can this table be made easier to follow and more informative?
Informative without text: group Vs given name
Topic or point
the independent variable(s) (X),
the dependent variable(s) (Y),
the animal or population, the material described, or both (Z).
category term
Dependent and independent variables
Similar to the text
the kind of data
the number of patients studied
the observation points
the abbreviations
the statistical significance level, and
the statistics used.
Assess the title and the arrangement of the table below.
Also compare the table with the relevant results (paras. 2 and 3 of Results).
Then revise the table to make the point clearer.
The question this paper asks is, "Do peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis have similar effects on plasma cholesterol metabolism in patients with end-stage renal disease?"
The answer is "no."
The concentrations of plasma total and free cholesterol and the phospholipid content were significantly lower in the hemodialysis patients than in the peritoneal dialysis patients or the control group (Table I). These lower values were partly reflected by the lower concentrations of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and the lower HDL cholesterol in the hemodialysis patients.
Consistent with the lower HDL concentrations, the major HDL apolipoprotein, apo A-I, was much lower in the hemodialysis patients than in the control group, whereas the value for the peritoneal dialysis patients was intermediate (Table II). Apo A-II concentrations were very similar in all three groups. Apo B and apo E were in the normal range in both groups of patients. Apo D was slightly higher in the two groups of patients than in the controls.
The ratio of high-density lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein (expressed here as the ratio between their major apolipoproteins, apo A-I and apo B, respectively) was significantly lower in the hemodialysis patients than in the controls (Table II). Values were intermediate in the peritoneal dialysis patients.
The original table is generally clear, but it can be made clearer.
Title and Column Headings.
In the revision, to make the title complete, the independent variables (peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis) have been added and the control subjects have been omitted.
As a result, the key terms in the title correlate with the key terms in the first column on the left (peritoneal dialysis, hemodialysis).
Title and Column Headings.
In addition, the column heading "Plasma Apoprotein" has been added, correlating with that term in the title, and the unit of measurement (mg/dl) is included after this general heading rather than being stated after each individual apoprotein.
Instead of a title in the form "Effects of X on Y in Z," the title could be in the form "Y after X in Z," and the point ("Greater Changes") could be included:
Plasma Apoproteins After Peritoneal Dialysis or Hemodialysis in Patients Who Have End-Stage Renal Disease
Changes in Plasma Apoproteins After Peritoneal Dialysis or Hemodialysis in Patients Who Have End-Stage Renal Disease
Greater Changes in Plasma Apoproteins After Hemodialysis than After Peritoneal Dialysis in Patients Who Have End-Stage Renal Disease.
Relation to the Text.
To make the table show the decreases in apo A-I and in apo A-I/apo B described in the text, the control values have been moved to the first row (as is conventional), peritoneal dialysis values are in the middle ("intermediate"), and the hemodialysis values are last ("much lower").
In addition, the patients are described fully in the title, as in the question ("patients who have end-stage renal disease").
Showing Significant Differences.
To show statistically significant differences, symbols (*, †) have been placed after the values that are different, and footnotes have been added to state the P values and what numbers are being compared.
If a table is too large:
delete unnecessary columns (for example, a column of p values) and rows;
avoid repetition of information;
keep titles, headings, and subheadings brief;
use abbreviations (and explain them in the footnotes); and
consider splitting one excessively large table into two smaller tables
reorienting the table
Consider combining tables that have the same or similar column headings.
Not only does this save space, but juxtaposing data often suggests new ways of looking at your results. See, for example, Tables 6.28 and 6.29.
Combining the two tables (Table 6.30) makes it clear that the side effects of treatment are of a magnitude and severity commensurate (proportionate) with its benefits, an observation that was less obvious when there were two tables.
Combining tables of benefits and side effects would not make sense, however, if the side effects of a therapy, such as nausea or skin rash, were not commensurate with its benefits, such as reduced cancer deaths.
Thank you Hemodialysis in Patients Who Have End-Stage Renal Disease

Tips For High School Fundraisers
Finding the right fundraiser for high school groups is not an easy thing to do. Motivating a high school student to participant in a fundraiser is an even tougher thing to do. High school fundraisers are a different animal compared to the fundraisers run by the middle schools and elementary schools. The main difference is that the fundraisers are not run by a parent organization such as a PTA or PTO. The students run these fundraisers, so relying on the parents to be the driving force of these fundraisers are unrealistic.
School-wide high school fundraisers do not work. High school fundraising is more segmented to smaller groups. Sports teams, school clubs, student councils, etc. are the types of groups where this type of fundraising works. Smaller groups have participants that will see the benefits of there hard work. Whether it's new uniforms for the football team, traveling expenses for the debate club or costs related to the prom, these are the types of achievable goals which high school fundraisers are designed for. There must be a specific purpose and this must be relayed to the participating members for a fundraiser to be successful.
Top 3 selling programs for high schools:
1. Cookie Dough
2. Eco Friendly Products
3. Gourmet Beverages
Tips for running a successful high school fundraiser
1. Offer realistic incentives. Finding the right way to motivate high school students can be a challenge, but we find that the incentives that work are the one that are of practical use. We recently worked with a school for the Junior Class fundraiser and they offered free prom tickets to the top 5 sellers. Their sales tripled from the previous year. Another group offers an iPod to the highest seller and iTunes discount cards to the next top 10 sellers. The point is to find the right thing that will motivate the student to participate. Find a motivator they actually care about.
2. Use social marketing to your advantage. Many groups are now using social marketing tools such as Facebook and Twitter promote their fundraisers. This is a great way to get the word out to the community, as well as convey the message and goals of your fundraiser.
3. Run a unique program. Make sure that none of the other groups are running the same program. I know this sounds simple but we've had groups run into this problem before. So do your research to find out what other groups are doing to avoid any conflicts.

Cell Phone Repair Franchise Systems Launches New Phone and Electronics Warranty(June 11, 2012)
Summerville, Ga. (PRWEB) June 11, 2012
We love electronics: There are nearly six billion cell phones in use today, and since its launch in 2010, customers have purchased over 65 million iPads. Almost half of cell phone users now own smart phones, but its costing more than they bargained for in protection plans and repairs.
Only a few years ago, smart phones were a technological luxury that few people could afford. Now, with six billion phones in service worldwide and the average selling price at $135, smart phones are accessible and available to most peopleuntil the phone is dropped or damaged. Once signed onto a carrier plan, the cost to replace a broken phone skyrockets, costing up to 400 percent more than the initial payment.
Cell Phone Repair Franchise Systems, Inc. (CPR®) is the oldest and most widely recognized brand in the cell phone repair industry, offering while-you-wait repair service and mail-in repairs for iPads, phones, laptops, game systems, iPods, GPS units and more. Now, customers can receive a unique service with the CPR Shield Warrantyfor about half of what competitors charge, CPR covers an unlimited number of claims of any type, from normal use issues to damage caused drops and spills, including full immersion on any phone and most electronic devices. Customers save money and keep countless electronics from ending up in landfills.
The electronics and smartphone repair franchise warranty offer is made possible by 42-year-old CPR founder and CEO Jeremy Kwaterski. His repair business strategy came from his early career as a wireless dealer in the 1990s, refurbishing pagers and phones by taking apart new devices to use parts to repair the old ones. He found that he could make more money this way than he would by selling the new devices and tossing the old ones.
Many phones come with a warranty option with the carrier. For example, the Apple iPhone4 has a warranty option called the Apple iCare plan that does swap outs for normal use issues, drops and spills (not including full liquid immersion). Customers pay $99 for two years with a $49 deductible within one year of the iPhone purchase for a maximum of two claims. With the CPR Shield Warranty, iPhone4 owners pay $29 for the whole year (or $54.99 for 18 months) with a $25-50 deductible and unlimited claims.
Only about 10 percent of cell phone owners have a warranty on their device, said Kwaterski. Many people feel that their carriers limited window to buy a warranty is frustrating, so they skip it all together. With our Shield Warranty, customers with any kind of smart phone can purchase affordable insurance at any time, for as long as they need it. Since we do all of our repairs in-house, theres no additional shipping fees or waiting time. You get your phone and your data back in your hands before you leave.
With almost 100 locations in the U.S., Canada and Chile, CPR is already the largest cell phone and electronics repair center by about 80 stores. Last year, CPR sold development rights to 200 stores and has plans to sell the rights to 300 more stores this year while opening 90 new retail locations in cities across the U.S. By 2015, CPR plans to target 1,000 new locations.

October 27, 2014ByThis review is from: Samsung Chromebook (Wi-Fi, 11.6-Inch) – Silver (Certified Refurbished) (Personal Computers)I adore this laptop!!! It runs fast, and its light weight. This laptop does everything perfectly. The only thing I didn't like about it at first is I didn't know how to right click. I figured it out though. Instead of touching the touchpad one for a normal left click, touch the touchpad with both fingers and it works just the same as a normal right click on a mouse. Needless to repeat, I LOVE THIS LAPTOP!!

Watch a Storm Kick The Martian Astronauts' Asses in the Movie's Latest Clip
This will be a crazy ride.
Here's the latest clip from Ridley Scott's (Blade Runner, Prometheus) forthcoming film, The Martian. The movie stars Matt Damon, and, like Andy Weir's novel, follows stranded astronaut-botanist Mark Watney as he attempts to scientifically MacGyver survival on Mars until rescued. Unless you've read the book, it might be unclear as to where this clip comes into play in terms of the story, but regardless, and at a very basic level, this will still give you a sense of the kind of hostile conditions the film's spacemen and spacewomen will endure (or not endure). You can check out the full trailer here; the movie comes out October 2.

Separation prediction over a 2d cylinder....
is really hard.
I am trying to simulate the effect of golf ball dimples in 2d by showing that the separation point moves towards the trailing side of the cylinder at a much lower Reynolds number when the surface is dimpled than when it is smooth. My 2d golf ball appears to work very well, but I cannot get a correct separation point for the smooth cylinder (leading me to believe that my other model is incorrect as well). The separation point seems to be almost independent of Reynold number.
I have searched through this forum and the docs and it has helped. I have a very fine, quad mesh at the surface of the ball (1024 points on surface), and a tri mesh everywhere else. I keep adding more gridpoints and the solution does not change so I do not think that is my problem. Here is the setup I am using:
-k-epsilon, RNG, Enhanced Wall Treatment
-Unsteady, timestep of 1e-5, 10 iterations per step
-Velocity inlet, outflow and symmetry boundary conditions
-Sliding mesh for rotation
I have tried many other schemes but this is what has yielded the best results. A suggestion in another thread from zxaar led me to this very small timestep.
I know many people have gotten somewhat correct solutions for separated flow over cylinders and spheres, what am I doing wrong?
Re: Separation prediction over a 2d cylinder....
i use 1.0E-05 with 7 iteration per time step, this has been used in last 40 analysis we have done i guess. Our fluent supprt once did the same calculation for us, they used 1.0E-04 and their result was for Cd = 0.34 instead of experiemntal 0.235 (we got 0.24 with 1.0E-05), so you can see the difference.
Re: Separation prediction over a 2d cylinder....
Your mesh quality sounds pretty good; you could try RSM as your mesh "supports" enhanced wall treatment... For high swirl and separated flows, k-e Realizable throw good results: it's being highly used in automotive industry to their simulations. If your RSM takes many time, Realizable could be your last choice if you have not try it before.
Also make sure that your last results are in 2nd order schemes.
Hope this helps. Good luck!

The Los Alamos Animal Shelter, 226 East Road, 662-8179, has a great selection of on-site adoptable pets; others are in foster care with loving, temporary homes.
We get lots of roaming cats and dogs. Don't assume your cat was a meal for a coyote or that your dog fell victim to something even scarier. This applies especially to animals missing in White Rock.
Teen Pulse staff member Ben Hanlon recently asked Los Alamos Middle School seventh grader Will Jean a few questions.
It really is amazing how your eyes can make a huge difference in the way that your face looks. Many people have the common misconception that eyes must be overdone, with either too much mascara, horrific neon-tinted eye shadow, or too much eyeliner. An important tip to remember whenever you are putting on any type of makeup is that less is more.
Subtle makeup that enhances your eyes will make them look larger, wider and more beautiful. Although there are different colors and combinations of eyeliner and eye shadow that can all enhance your eyes, this article will focus only on one style that will work for all eyes.
Most teens all are so anxious for summer to start, that they often forget to plan things to do when summer actually begins, so they spend most of their summer inside, doing nothing at all. This can be the summer when things change.
One thing to do this summer is to wake up earlier and get active. Try getting a group of friends together and go to Ashley Pond for a morning yoga session. Some other ideas are to go swimming at one of the local pools, go hiking or biking on one of the many trails in Los Alamos, or just go for a simple walk.
Just when you thought the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies were over, the fourth installment of the popular Disney pirate series hits the big screen.
Jerry Bruckheimer produces the movie as he did with the previous three. Changes in the movie include the absence of Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley's characters, and the replacement of Gore Verbinski, who directed the first three pirate movies, with Rob Marshall ("Memoirs of a Geisha," "Annie").
"Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" follows Captain Jack Sparrow played by Johnny Depp ("Once Upon a Time in Mexico," "Secret Window") on a quest to find the famed fountain of youth.
In recent weeks, it has come to light that some members of the Los Alamos County Council would like to pursue modifications to the city-county charter to do away with the position of Los Alamos County Sheriff.
The motives behind such a move are unclear.
The County Sheriffs Office has received written notification of this action. Thus far, we have not seen a publicized announcement of the council's intentions in this matter.
The county sheriff is an elected position. If the council decides to move forward, one would hope that it is done through a referendum and voted upon by the general public.
This editorial is to alert voters and help educate the public.
Construction at both Sullivan Field (above) and Griffith Gymnasium continued last week. Crews remain busy readying the two main Los Alamos High School competition venues for play this fall.
Sullivan Field will be getting a new artificial surface for football and soccer, while the facade of Griffith Gym is being redone.
Work is expected to be completed around the start of the 2011-12 school year.
First Splash N Dash is Wednesday
The first Splash N Dash of the season will take place Wednesday starting at the Larry R. Walkup Aquatic Center.
The Splash N Dash, a free event, is open to the public and is geared toward those training for the Los Alamos Triathlon. Registration for the event is limited to 75 participants.
Interested participants may sign up at the aquatic center on the day of the event starting at 6:20 p.m. Participants may choose a 400-yard swim and 5K run or a 200-yard swim and 3K run.

Bumpers registration ends Monday
The Family YMCA of Los Alamos is accepting registrations for its Bumpers youth volleyball program.
WIMBLEDON, England (AP) — Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Serena Williams — players with a combined 12 Wimbledon titles — all won in straight sets Saturday to move into the fourth round and keep up their pursuit of even more championship trophies at the All England Club.
Six-time champion Federer beat David Nalbandian 6-4, 6-2, 6-4 to move closer to equaling the record of seven Wimbledon singles titles held by Pete Sampras and 1880s player Willie Renshaw. Two-time winner and defending champion Rafael Nadal committed only three unforced errors in a 7-6 (6), 7-6 (5), 6-0 victory over Gilles Muller, a 92nd-ranked wild card from Luxembourg.

We all do it but not intentionally. We open multiple personal bank accounts without considering the reason we opened them. You then end up having more accounts then you need which makes it harder to keep track of your money. Here are things to consider before you open your next bank account in order to simplify your personal financial lifestyle.
Purpose – Before you sign the documentation to open another bank account you must determine the purpose of the account. Ask yourself the following questions:
* Why do you need to open a new account?
* Does your existing account not meet your banking needs?
* Will this new account be your main checking or saving account?
* Are you looking to establish another banking relationship?
* Are you opening this account for business purpose?
Answering these questions will help you clarify the need for a new account.
Safety – How safe is the bank? With multiple banks recently failing, you have to ask the question, will this bank be around at the end of the year or even in six months. If you're opening a new account, you want to be able to sleep at night knowing your money will be safe. This tool at Bankrate.com can help you determine the safety of your bank.
Convenience – How convenient are the bank branches and ATMs for this bank? How often will you use this bank's ATMs or branches? Will you need access to these funds regularly.
Online capabilities – Will you be able to view your account online and are there other online services available such as bill pay services or account alerts. Does your existing bank offer these services?
Fees – Will there be a monthly service charge for this account? If waived initially how long of a period will the fee be waived? Will you have to maintain a specific amount in this new account to avoid fees or to receive priority services or better rate?
Rate- What interest rate will this account pay? Is the interest rate on your account an introduction rate if so how long will you receive this initial rate? What will the rate be after introduction rate expires?
Other banking services- what type of service are you looking for? Are you just looking to use the deposit services of this bank or you looking to us other banking services such as safety deposit or bill pay services. What services are provide at this bank that are not provided at your current bank? Are does this bank provide better customer service than your existing banking?
Remember in order to simplify your personal finances you want to limit the number of bank accounts you have to manage so stop and think before you open your next bank account.

The Toyota 4Runner, (Toyota Hilux Surf in most international markets) is an SUV manufactured by Toyota and sold throughout the world from 1984 to the present. The original 4Runner was a Compact SUV and a little more than a Toyota pickup truck with a fiberglass shell over the bed, but the model has since undergone significant independent development into a mid-size SUV. All 4Runners have been built at Toyota's Tahara plant in Tahara, Aichi, Japan or at Hino Motors' Hamura, Japan plant, and in Brazil, Toyota will redesign the 4Runner for the 2010 model year.

The Toyota pickup (upon which the 4Runner was originally based) underwent a major redesign in 1983 for the 1984 model year. Many other automakers were introducing mid-size SUVs in the mid 1980s (e.g., Ford Bronco II, Chevrolet S-10 Blazer) and the pressure mounted on Toyota to develop a competing model. Instead of developing an entirely new vehicle, Toyota took their existing short-bed pickup frame, made some simple modifications, and added an open one-piece body with a removable fiberglass top (much like the full-size Ford Bronco and Chevrolet K5 Blazer).
Thus, the first generation 4Runner is nearly mechanically identical to the Toyota pickup. All first generation 4Runners had two doors and were indistinguishable from the pickups from the dashboard forward. Nearly all changes were to the latter half of the body; in fact, because the rear springs were not upgraded to cope with the additional weight of the rear seats and fiberglass top, these early models tend to suffer from sagging rear suspensions.
The first 4Runners were introduced in 1984 as 1984 1/2 models. For this first year, all models were equipped with black or white fiberglass tops. An SR5 trim package was offered that upgraded the interior: additional gauges, better fabrics, and a rear seat were standard with the package. All 1984 models were equipped with the Carburetor 2.4 L 22R engine and were all available with a Four wheel drive system that drove the front wheels through a solid front axle (although this would be changed in 1986, much to the chagrin of many off-road enthusiasts).
1985 saw the arrival of the electronically fuel-injected 2.4 L 22R-E I4 engine (though the carbureted engine remained available until 1988). Additionally, rear seats were available in all 1985 4Runner trim levels, not just the more upscale SR5.
A turbocharged version of the 22R-E engine (the 22R-TE) was also introduced in 1986, although this engine is significantly rarer than the base 22R-E. It appears that all turbocharged 4Runner models sold in the US were equipped with an Automatic transmission, though a five-speed Manual transmission could still be ordered in the turbocharged pickups. Most Turbo 4Runners were equipped with the SR5 package, and all turbo trucks had as standard a heavier rear differential. Low-option models had a small light in the gauge cluster to indicate turbo boost, while more plush vehicles were equipped with an all-digital gauge cluster that included a boost gauge. Turbocharged and naturally aspirated diesel engines were also available in the pickups at this time as well, but it appears that no diesel-powered 4Runners were imported to the United States.
In 1988, the 22R-E engine was joined by an optional 3.0 L V6 engine, the 3VZ-E. This engine was significantly larger and more powerful than the original 4-cylinder offering. Trucks sold with the V6 engine were equipped with the same heavy duty rear differential that was used in the turbocharged trucks, as well as a completely new transmission and transfer case; the transfer case was chain driven, and created less cab noise than the old gear-driven unit used behind the four cylinder engine.
Small cosmetic and option changes were made in 1989, but the model was left largely untouched in anticipation of the replacement model then undergoing final development.

The 1990 model year 4Runner represented a fundamental departure from the first-generation model. Instead of an enhanced pickup truck, the new 4Runners featured a freshly designed body mounted on an existing frame. The difference is easily seen when comparing pickups and 4Runners of similar vintage: a 1984 4Runner looks remarkably similar to a 1984 Toyota pickup, whereas a 1990 4Runner shares only subtle styling details with the 1990 pickup.
Nearly all second generation 4Runners were 4-door models; however, from 1989 to 1992, a 2-door model was also produced. These models are similar to the 4-door models of the time in that the bodies were formed as a single unit, instead of the fiberglass tops used in the first-generation 4Runners. Two-door 4Runners from this era are extremely rare, and were discontinued in August 1992, probably due to higher importation duties and owner insurance costs.
Because the drivelines were still developed from the same source, however, available engines were identical. The same 2.4 L four cylinder (22RE) and 3.0 L V6 (3VZ) engines were available in Rear wheel drive and Four wheel drive layouts. The new 4Runner used the independent front suspension that had been developed on the previous generation. The older style gear driven transfer case was phased out, and both engines now had chain driven cases, probably to cut down cab noise and vibration.
The Hilux Surf version for the Japanese market was also available with a range of diesel engines, including a 2.4 L Turbodiesel 2L-TE I4 up to 1993, followed by a 3.0 L turbodiesel 1KZ-TE I4. A small number were also made with a normally aspirated 2.8 L diesel 3L I4. A small number were also produced with a 2.0 L 3Y I4 naturally-aspirated gasoline engine.
Most other full-body SUVs produced at the time (e.g. Nissan Pathfinder, Ford Explorer) featured tailgates that opened upward with the glass closed. In contrast, the second generation 4Runner carried over the retractable-glass tailgate from the first generation. Opening these tailgates requires first retracting the rear window into the tailgate and then lowering the tailgate much like as on a pickup truck.
In 1992, the 4Runner received minor cosmetic updates, including modular headlamps instead of the increasingly outdated rectangular sealed beams. Additional cosmetic changes occurred between 1993 and 1995, the last year of the second generation.

1996 marked another significant redesign of the then-aging 4Runner. Whereas the transition to the second generation 4Runner was one that kept the build quality and options roughly on par with the rest of the mid-size SUV market, the changes made in the third generation turned the 4Runner into a more luxury-oriented vehicle. This move paralleled the upgrades to the 1996 Nissan Pathfinder, but moved the 4Runner into a distinctly different class from its older competitors, the Ford Explorer, Chevrolet Blazer, and Isuzu Rodeo. The third generation 4Runner did, however, look very similar to the second generation.
This similarity largely ended with its looks. It carried over the basic design and concept, but executed it differently with an all-new body shell on an all-new chassis. This time, it shared virtually nothing with the pickup it had originally evolved from, and had more in common with the Land Cruiser, as it shared its chassis with that of the Land Cruiser Prado.
The third generation 4Runner also featured new engines that are also installed in the first generation Toyota Tacoma pickup trucks. :
- 2.7L 3RZ-FE I4 replacing the previous 2.4L 22R-E I4; 150 hp (110 kW), max horsepower: 4800 rpm, torque: 177 ft·lbf (240 N·m), max torque: 4000 rpm;
- 3.4L 5VZ-FE V6 replacing the previous 3.0L 3VZ-E V6: power: 183 hp (136 kW), max horsepower: 4800 rpm, torque: 217 ft·lbf (294 N·m), max Torque: 3600 rpm.
In 1996 the 4Runner was dropped from sale in the UK, to be replaced by the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, which was badged as the Toyota Land Cruiser Colorado.
1997 Models received a few minor updates, including the addition of a color keyed cargo cover.
1998 remained largely unchanged, save for a few changes in the electronics ie more ergonomic switch control panels and a newly designed 4 spoke steering wheel, which also necessitated a redesign of the air bag system.
1999 Models received both major cosmetic and interior enhancements. A new "fat lip" bumper was designed, as well as new projector style headlights, side marker lights, and front turn signals. Vehicles with "Limited" trim received color-keyed running boards, front and rear bumpers, and flares. The ergonomics of the interior was completely changed, moving all the controls to the center of the dash for the rear window, and defrost. The Limited trucks also received a brand-new electronic temp control, and upgraded stereo.
2000 Models received new transparent taillights and new front grille design. The wheels were also changed to a five-spoke design rim. Limited models received newly designed five spoke wheels as well, however different from SR5 and base model. Also included was a new, sleeker side view mirror design.
Significant changes from the second generation models include a larger body on a longer wheelbase, increased interior space, increased cargo space, twin airbags, Anti-lock braking system, lift-up tailgate, coil-sprung suspension all round, rack and pinion steering. Additionally, Hilux Surf versions immediately moved to 16-inch wheels and gained a center differential, enabling the use of four wheel drive on hard surfaces without complication for the first time. The prior system was retained to give on-the-fly shifting between rear and four wheel drive as before.

The fourth-generation 4Runner incorporated serious changes to the chassis and body of the vehicle, but was targeted at approximately the same demographics as the third generation. Based on the Land Cruiser Prado 120 series, the updated 4Runner looks very different from the older 4Runners, but is still targeted as a mid-size quasi-luxury SUV. Available trims are currently the SR5, Sport Edition, and the Limited. An all-new 4.0 L 1GR-FE V6 is standard in the current 4Runner, but for the first time, a V8 became available for the fourth generation models. The same 4.7 L 2UZ-FE V8 found in the Land Cruiser, Tundra, and Sequoia is now an available option for the fourth generation, and produces 260 hp (194 kW) and 306 lb·ft (415 N·m) of torque.
The 2003 4runner entered showrooms in October 2002 as a 2003 model year.[1] When it was first introduced the SR5 and Sport Edition models used gray plastic cladding and bumpers. In early 2003, Toyota added an optional Appearance Package for the SR5 model that included color-keyed cladding, bumpers, and liftgate trim. In April 2003, Toyota made the Appearance Package, along with the previously optional fog lamps, running boards, and 16-inch aluminum wheels, standard on the SR5. The Sport Edition also added black running boards and color-keyed trim, replacing the grey cladding and silver-painted grille, door handles and liftgate trim. A new suspension system, "X-REAS", became standard on the Sport Edition and optional for SR5 and Limited models. The system links the shocks diagonally by means of hydraulic hoses and reduces body roll during hard cornering. All 4runners come with skid plates for the engine, transfer case, and fuel tank for off road adventures. [2]
The IIHS rates the 4Runner along with the Nissan Pathfinder among the best truck based mid-size SUV's in crash tests. The April 2007 IIHS report also shows the 4Runner to have one of the lowest death rates for all vehicles on the road at only 13 deaths per million registered vehicle years during calendar years 2002-2005. Only the Infiniti G35 and BMW 7 series had lower rates.
The IIHS rates this 4Runner as Good overall in the frontal offset crash test and Good overall in the side impact test. The 4runner received the Good rating in 13 of the 14 measured categories.[3]
ABS and Electronic stability control are standard. Side curtain airbags for the front and rear rows as well as side torso airbags for the front row were optional on 2005-2007 models and became standard on 2008 models.
Model year changes
- In 2004, a Tire Pressure Monitoring System was added as standard equipment. A 3rd row seat became optional on the SR5 and Limited models.
- The 2005 model brought enhancements to the optional V8 engine and made a 5-speed automatic standard on the V6 model. Slight changes were made to the exterior including color-keyed bumper trim (replacing the silver painted trim on all colors except Dorado Gold) on the SR5 and Limited; a chrome grille on the SR5; a black roof-rack and running boards (replacing silver) on the Limited; and a redesigned rear spoiler. A Salsa Red Pearl scheme was also introduced for all trim levels, although a similar color scheme was available for third generation models.
- The 2006 model year marked the fourth generation's mid-cycle refresh. The changes included revised front and rear bumpers; a reworked grille; new projector-beam headlamps and LED tail lamps; additional chrome trim on the SR5 model; and a smoked-chrome grille with tubular roof-rack and step bars on the Sport Edition. The revised front bumper features circular fog lights and a relocation of the turn-signals to the headlamp assembly. The redesigned bumper eliminates the rear bumper reflectors. MP3 playback capability and an auxiliary input jack were added to all audio systems. In addition, the Limited model was further differentiated from the other trim levels with the addition of unique 18" wheels and a seat memory system.
- For 2007, the 4Runner is unchanged with the exception of a new gray-colored variant: Shadow Mica.
- For 2008, the 4Runner receives standard rollover sensing side curtain Airbags and front row side torso airbags, a switch to disable Electronic stability control, slightly modified front grille design, refinements in the Tire Pressure Monitoring System, and some changes in the seatbelt warning system and brake system control.
- For 2009 the 4runner is unchanged and this design is believed to be phased out by mid 2009 to make room for an all new 4runner to debut.

The fifth generation 4Runner is believed to launch in mid-2009 as the 2010 model year.
Both the first and second generation 4Runners became targeted as unsafe SUVs. 1980s and early-1990s US crash regulations were not very strict for light trucks, and all early model 4Runners were fitted with doors that offered little protection in the event of a side collision. In most areas, there was little more than two pieces of sheetmetal and the window to keep incoming vehicles from impacting passengers. The crash test rating for the second generation 4Runner was one star for the driver's side in a frontal collision although the passenger side got a 4 star rating. Later, more stringent crash regulations mandated doors that offered as much protection as passenger car doors.
The most common accusations, however, were that 4Runners (and other narrow-track SUVs of the time) were prone to Rollover. Many light SUVs of the time featured comparatively high centers of gravity and, given the right situations, could be flipped over. Whether or not this is a serious road hazard is dependent on many parameters, including the speed of the vehicle, the tires fitted to the vehicle, the road surface, and the driver's ability to predict and correct for situations that may result in a rollover. Third generation 4Runners were designed with a wider track, but it is unclear if this was directly in response to increased pressure from safety groups, or if it was simply a product engineering decision.

What is JotForm?
JotForm is a free online form builder which helps you create online forms without writing a single line of code. No sign-up required.
At JotForm, we want to make sure that you're getting the online form builder help that you need. Our friendly customer support team is available 24/7.
We believe that if one user has a question, there could be more users who may have the same question. This is why many of our support forum threads are public and available to be searched and viewed.

Can I prevent the fields in the collapsed form from appearing in the Notification EmailAsked by halh on August 28, 2013 at 10:36 AM
I can successfully hide additional fileds with the Collapse Form field and conditional logic. However, even though those fields are not completed, the notification email includes all of the fields.
Is there a way to prevent this?
Hi halh, I see that you have quite a few forms. Can you please tell us which form this is on so that we can better assist you with this issue?
Additionally, To my knowledge though, you can control what is seen on your Email Notifications by Manually Editing everything in or out of the Notification Template itself.
An Example of this is in your Email Notification Template you'll note that the Tags - {fullName1} - coincides with the " Form Fields " box on the rightside boxed in RED in my image below. Those are all connected to each of the fields you have on your form so even though you don't see the actual Form Collapse in here you can remove any of the Field Questions in your actual Email Notification Template that are on your form's collapser and this will hide all of that.
The form is 32393334900955 -Multiple Instructors - V2
If I delete the initially hidden fields in the email response, they won't appear when the condition for their use is met. Do I have to set up two emails (with a condition, if that is possible) so that when the primary fields are complete, the hidden ones don't appear, and when the hidden fields are completed, all fields appear?
Thanks for contacting us.
Yes, your idea would work great for your needs. Just to be sure that it will work i made the changes and made some tests. And yes, it worked great.
I cloned your form and made the changes, Here is my form:
You can clone it and use it, so that you can save that work. The conditions are in this way:
condition 01:
Condition 02:
Please let us know if you need further assistance.
Bonjour, je ne reçois plus de mail d'inscriptions de mes stagiaires,pour moi c'est très important,quand je veux faire un test mail je reçois un message de contacter Jotform,merci de faire le nécessaire
Thank you, I've cloned the form (you probably got the test emails) and it works perfectly. How did you get the "with and without collapse fields" as choices for the actions?
JotForm Support
As far as I can see, the issue was solved per your thread.
It looks like that EliezerN has added two conditional Email Notifications to the form.
Note: 'With collapse fields' and 'Without collapse fields' are titles of Email Notifications.
Then, he has modified email template body in order to remove needed fields.
You can clone his form to your account to check the back end:
How to clone an existing form from a URL
Thank you.
Yes, I just wanted to know if "with collapse fields" and "without collapse fields are standard Jotform action items to be used in Conditional actions.
JotForm Support
@ halh
Can you please elaborate the question.
This notification email setup is not the default. It is a modified email notification with Conditions.
To add notificaiton email, please refer to this guide Setting-Up-Email-Notifications
And to better understand how Conditions are setup, please review this guide also
Please inform us if you need further assistance.
Perhaps a figure will make this clearer: Are the drop-down terms in the Select window (arrows) standard Jotform selections available when the Form Collapse field is used?
JotForm Support
The Without Collapse Fields and With Collapse Fields are not standard jotform selections but they are the names for the Email Notifications that ElizerN created. As my colleagues explained above, two Email Notifications were created one that would include the form collapse fields and one that would not and they were named appropriately. The email alert body was modified accordingly, one to include form collapse and one to exclude it.
So to sum it up the only reason why you are seeing the options Without Collapse Fields and With Collapse Fields in the drop down is because they are the names that were given to the email alerts that were created and the names of the email alerts are used when setting up the conditions.
I hope this helps!
Now I understand. This is a very useful feature; I hope this becomes "standardized". It certainly simplified my project.
Thank you.
JotForm Support
Thanks for letting us know.
If you want this as a jotform feature you can start a new thread describing what you would like and we will send the thread as a ticket to our developers for them to consider implementing it.
This form works well, the appropriate emails correspond to the conditions BUT the entered Instructor's Name DOES NOT appear in the email, even though the field ID is specified in the report, when the email is transmitted via the Submit button. The entered name is included in the Submission Report and is included in the Test email. I noticed this after a number of submissions did not include the Instructor's Name (The field descriptor does appear)
Here is the form URL to test: http://form.jotformpro.com/form/32683823013955
Another problem surfaced with this form. The both email notifications only send the email to the first address, of five in the list, all separated by commas.
Begin forwarded message:
JotForm Support
As far as I understand, you are working on the following form:
This form works well, the appropriate emails correspond to the conditions BUT the entered Instructor's Name DOES NOT appear in the email.
The email templates are being populated by field {tags}. If you have incorrect tag, this will not send anything on the email.
It looks like that some fields were changed, and now you have some incorrect tags. Please make sure that you use correct field tags on your templates.
For example, check the Instructor's name on the first email template. I think that you have incorrect {instructorsName16} tag when it should be {instructorsName148}.
Another problem surfaced with this form. The both email notifications only send the email to the first address, of five in the list, all separated by commas.
The conditions are overriding your standard recipients. In order to fix this, please list all the recipients under conditional rules.
Thank you.
Thank you. Both problems solved.

Tournament Name: WarGods of Olympus – Curse of the Snake People
Games System: WarGods of Aegyptus
WarGod of Olympus – Curse of the Snake People
In Sparta a baby is born with no legs. As per custom, it is left, exposed on a hillside. The next morning, both parents were dead.
In the fields surrounding Troy, there are infestations of serpents. Crops wither, and famine looms over the city.
In Corinth, strange symbols appear on door frames. Days later, a hideous sickness sweeps through the slums.
Across Hellas, the City-States are beset by vermin, famine, plague, and death. Fearful citizens whispers of cults festering in the shadows, and each City looks to its neighbours with suspicion. Tensions are rising as Cities accuse each other of taking advantage of the situation … or worse, causing it.
You are a staunch defender of y our city. You must rally the people to face this challenge. You must remain strong, as any sign of weakness will be exploited by rival cities. And in turn, you must exploit any weakness in your neighbours. It may be the only way to survive.
In the darkness, Golghaata stirs. She watches the City-States of Hellas bicker and squabble. She smiles and turns to her children. "Soon. Soon the cities of Hellas will be ours." Her children respond with a chorus of anticipatory hisses.
This is a two day, 6 game, WarGods of Ægyptus tournament on Saturday 28 and Sunday 29 January 2017. Please note that Thursday 26 January 2017 is the Australia Day public holiday. This tournament runs on Day 2 and Day 3 of CanCon 2017.
While the Tournament does have an Olympian theme, all Warbands, including Ægyptian and Wendigo are welcome. If players do have an Olympian Warband, they are strongly encouraged to consider taking it. All the scenarios, terrain and awards for this tournament will be themed around Olympus.
Awards and Prizes
Certificates will be awarded for 1st and 2nd Overall (Champion and Favoured of Zeus) (based on a combination of achieving scenario objectives, defeating enemy Warbands, defeating enemy leaders, painting and sportsmanship).
Certificates will be awarded for, best sports (Champion of Dionysus) and painted (Champion of Aphrodite).
In order to minimise cost to players, there will not be any CanCon Dragon Trophies, or formal prizes.
Warband Composition
The following Warband compositions restrictions will apply.
- 1750 point Warband.
- Harbinger/Demigod/Overlord/Ice Witch may start at up to Ka 2 (paying the appropriate point cost).
- Warbands may be selected from any Crocodile Games publication released before 1 January 2017. This includes the WarGods of Ægyptus rulebook, Wendigo Warband Guide, Croc Tales, WarGods of Olympus rulebook (if released), WarGods of Olympus trial Warband rules (if rulebook not released).
- If rules for the Amazon, Athenian Trojan Demigods and Honor Guard, and Olympian chariot drivers are not available, use the rules provided in this document.
- Models must be WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) with the following exceptions.
- Non Crocodile Games models are acceptable as long as they are clearly identifiable, and appropriate to the theme of the Warband and WarGods in general.
- No models may be equipped with both heavy armour and a shield (of any type).
- Javelins and throwing clubs do not have to be represented on models.
- Armour may represent one class of armour up or down form what is represented on the model (paying the appropriate points cost. For example, a model in light armour can be used to represent no armour, light armour or medium armour; a model with no armour could represent no armour or light armour.
- Shields carried by models can represent normal or large shields (paying the appropriate points cost).
- Olympian Battle Honors do not need to represented on models as set out in the Olympian (currently trial) rules. However, any unit with Battle Honors must be clearly identifiable and different from other similar units, to both the owning player and their opponent. Tokens are an acceptable way to represent Battle Honors.
- Starting Spells and Powers will be rolled by the Tournament Organiser and provided to players once lists have been submitted. These Spells/Powers will be used for all games in the Tournament (not re-rolled before each game).
- Powers gained during the game should be rolled at the end of the game and witnessed by your opponent or the Tournament Organiser;.
- If you do not have an appropriate models for a rolled Power, or already have that Power, take lowest numbered Power not yet gained instead.

JotForm JS doesnt always load correctlyAsked by dmitrisjotform on July 28, 2014 at 08:11 AM
It seems that sometimes the forms do not fully load. For example the hint text inside the fields and some of the JS-generated styles do not load. This is very important in my case as the hint text inside the text fiends is being used instead of labels on my page.
Is your form embedded to a website or you are just the form url itself? I'm unable to reproduce the issue on my end using the standalone URL. I've tested it on firefox 31.0, chrome 38.0, IE 11.0 and Safari 5.1.7. You can share your website URL if you have embedded your form into it so we could inspect the page.
Firefox 31.0
Chrome 38
Safari 5.1.7
Wow thanks so much for your quick response and all the details!
The system I was testing on was Chrome & Safari on OSX and iOS Safari.
The form was embedded using the JavaScript. The url is: stage [dot] artsocket [dot] com/submit
(Although this url is public it is a testing server, that's why I typed it like that)
Generally speaking the Form JS should load without flaw. If it doesn't then usually this means that you most likely are running other JS files on your website which are conflicting with the forms files causing it to break. Have you tried using an iframe yet if you are able to? This would prevent these conflicts between your website and the form to allow it to run properly.
Also, You mentioned " Although this url is public it is a testing server, that's why I typed it like that " so we are wondering if you could provide us with a link to your website that has the embedded forms and we will gladly take a look at it for you if you are still having trouble.
Hi Kade, here is the url: http://stage.artsocket.com/submit/
Thanks again!
I do apologize about that. I just realized shortly after that you had already mentioned the link " The url is: stage [dot] artsocket [dot] com/submit " above in your last response - My fault.
Anyway, I checked this further on my end where I can see your form hints. What versions of these browsers do you have that you were testing this in?
No worries. I use Safari 7.0.5 and Chrome 36.
The error does not happen routinely, but it feels as if sometimes that some part of the script fails to load or execute. It seems to happen more often on iPhone.
Also, I am located in Thailand - maybe there's something in the network. They don't seem to block any major sites here.
JotForm Support
If it fails to load, then most likely, a conflict between your existing website scripts and the default form embed codes which is using javascript method. As suggested, our iFrame codes should prevent conflicts: http://www.jotform.com/help/148-Getting-the-Form-iFrame-Code. We advise to try it and update us here if the issue persists.
Network shouldn't be a problem, not unless you can't connect to our website.
Thank you!

Long road back
Thursday, July 17, 2014
Well, I have been making some healthy changes this week. It's been a long while since I have tried thinking about healthy food, water or exercise. I have a horribly long way to go, but in some ways I have proven a little bit to myself with just trying to trim my portions and drink more water (less soda) and walk on the treadmill. I'm trying walking with incline instead of running. Hopefully I can work my way up.
I am very extremely blessed. A lady from my church donated several bags of clothes to me. Many still have the tags on them. The tops fit pretty well, but would fit better if I were a little more toned. I am determined to fit into the pants. The funny thing is that they aren't that small. In fact, I used to wear those sizes a lot until I just let myself go. I want to benefit from her blessing. I can't afford a lot of clothes and I think wearing some of these would help me feel better about myself. My school district does put an emphasis on what you look like. The clothes I wear now were given to me by my great aunt who passed away several years ago. And while many of those clothes are fine, they are not current fashion or look the best on me. I don't want to talk about the clothes given to me by my under 5' sister in law who is built as the exact opposite of me. Nice folks with nice intentions. Maybe I can gift these clothes to someone else in need.
Here I go on another journey. I'm not going with anyone, any group, any contest or anything in particular. I kinda want to do this by myself to prove to myself how strong I am. Yes, I realize that more people fail when by themselves, but I think I need to do this alone (with the electronic help of SparkPeople excluded). :)

Speaking for myself, I continually work on eating smaller portions and adding more vegetables to my diet. I sincerely detest the taste of soda (except for A&W root beer, and I have no idea why that is!) so I much prefer drinking water. Spark has helped me exercise more, and I have turned into quite the walker! It's something I really enjoy, especially walking with other people. Talking while walking doesn't seem like exercise at all. The 10,000/step/day team on Spark motivates me quite a lot because of having to post my daily steps. But it's the food that I have to watch out for. Stay strong!

The Value of Slowing Down – TPS210
Podcast: Play in new window | Download (20.1MB)
Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Android | RSS
Because I recently had hand surgery and have been in a cast for six weeks, I've had to deal with some major changes in my routine. I had two choices: I could be upset about what was going on or accept the situation and make the best of it. I really believe that whatever is happening is helping you get where you're going, so I accepted. I had no choice but to slow down. In this episode, I talk about the benefits that I have reaped from this experience.
- I've been allowing things to emerge.
- When moving from one financial position into another, you're actually changing the neural pathways in your brain- you're changing habits.
- Everything about you is a habit.
- What you believe, how you think, how you feel is a habit.
- You're just one big habit.
- There are lots of factors that go into how you behave and what you do. It has to do with your brain and how it's wired.
- When you're going to change, how you think, what you believe, how you feel and how you behave- you have to actually rewire your brain.
- NeuralTransformation Technique™ is my new framework for my teachings. [Now being called Neural Pathway Reprogramming™)
- I have found myself at a different level by slowing down and not being concerned.
- It's about slowing down and realizing that there's no hurry.
- We tend to slow down naturally as we get older.
- Slowing down and paying attention to those inner messages can really be important for you.
- We can change the wiring of our brains with consistent effort.
- It doesn't take long to move in the new direction and give yourself the support you need in order to overcome your resistance to change.

Y'know when you see something super sweet and adorable and heart squishy and you want to show everyone? That's me right now thanks to imgur user duffmanszalotofthings (oh yeah!).
He and his new wife are huge Harry Potter fans, so he created a Pensieve for her wedding gift. Now, he could have just used a bowl with water and done it as a nice gesture of love, but he went all out and created one of the most perfect things I've ever seen. He made the wand and the bowl himself and packed the glass vials with notes that recall "a memory of her that makes me smile". The bottles can be picked up with the wand thanks to the addition of magnets. *Sniff*

Husband and wife to experience Ring Day together
March 15th, 2016 | SMWC
For many students at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College (SMWC), Ring Day is a culmination of their journey at The Woods – a special ceremony in which they can reflect on all they have accomplished. Students earn an onyx ring their junior year and are able to choose someone to co-present, along with President Dottie King, Ph.D., as they receive their ring during the ceremony. It is often the most anticipated and remembered day, even above graduation. So you can imagine how special it must be for Hannah and Jordan Schultz, Birdseye, Ind., a married couple who will participate in Ring Day, this year, together.
Jordan and Hannah first met in high school. Their paths crossed occasionally, but they lost track of each other. While Hannah was attending SMWC, she contacted Jordan about information for a summer job. At the time, he worked at the French Lick Resort as a trail guide, and since Hannah was in the equine program, she was looking for a related job. She ended up working in a different department as the marketing coordinator for the resort, but as a result of that inquiry, they began dating.
Each have very different Woods experiences. Jordan is a current Woods Online student receiving his ring. Hannah was a 2010 campus graduate who received her ring several years ago and is now co-presenting her husband with his ring.
"Presenting my husband's ring to him has become meaningful to me, as it gives me an opportunity to give him more of a connection to SMWC," said Hannah. "Since he's attending online and so busy with work and family, I don't think he's felt as much of a connection to The Woods as I did. When we realized that I could present his ring to him, I think he began to feel that connection."
Jordan agrees. "Ring Day is my chance to be a part of the culture at The Woods," he said. "Having my wife as a co-presenter kind of started out as a joke. But the more we thought about it, the more sense it made. It's really awesome that she's able to share in this experience with me, and that I'm able to share it with her."
Jordan, a Woods Online math major, plans to graduate this December. As a former service member in the Marine Corps, Jordan took advantage of the financial aid and benefits that SMWC offers to veterans.
"I chose SMWC for a couple reasons," he said. "The first is obviously my wife went there, so I knew a little bit about it. The second is that SMWC offers a great veterans program, so that kind of tipped things into its favor. I chose online purely because of scheduling purposes. It allows me to work full time and be a full-time student."
Jordan plans to obtain his teaching license and become a high school math teacher. Ring Day is just another step toward that goal and a celebration of being closer to accomplishing it.
Describing her own Ring Day, Hannah said, "As a student, Ring Day was significant in that I was gaining a physical symbol of what I had accomplished that I would take with me in the world and would mark me as a representative of the College."
For Hannah, this Ring Day will hold even more meaning.
"For me, it's a chance to re-connect with the school. I haven't had a chance to visit since graduation, so for me it will be a homecoming of sorts," she said. "I know what The Woods has given me – in memories, education, and life experience – and I'm honored to share the experience with my husband."
Jordan and Hannah live in Birdseye, Ind., where Jordan is an apprentice for the Local 181 Operators Union and Hannah is a stay-at-home mom to their two children: Coltyn (2) and Joanna (7 months).

How can I accept email if the domain doesn't exist?
Anonymous asks:
How can I accept email if the domain doesn't exist?
I assume you must have your system set to reject email when the domain can't be looked up.
You could shut off "SMTP Server->Security Options->Block if senders email domain is not found in DNS", but that will expose you to a lot of spam, so I would not advise that.
Assuming you have the "Do not apply these limits to IP address group" set, you could add the problem IP there.
Or get the person responsible to fix their DNS!
Got something to add? Send me email.

NOTE: Today (November 2, 2011) marks the one-year anniversary of when I first joined the wiki. While this event may seem irrelavent and pointless to some of you, I personally thought it would be yet another great opportunity for us to reflect on our lives here. ;D
This has been quite an eventful year for me.
I guess I'd like to start off by saying that while I have had a few bumps along the way, all and all, I would have to say that being here has been an extremely pleasant experience. I have deeply and passionately enjoyed making blogs and was pleased to see that they had such positive feedback. I have also had the pleasure and honor of meeting and getting to know so many wonderful people. We are so fortunate to have such a rich abundance of creative minds and incredible personalities all in one community. It's truly inspirational.
Since I first joined, I have had my fair share of achievements and regrets. However, I am not here today to brag about my achievements or whine about my regrets. Instead, I decided to have you guys reflect on your own personal experiences here.
1. What has been your greatest achievement since you have joined?
2. What has been your deepest regret since you have joined?
(If you are uncomfortable answering one or both of these questions, I completely understand.)
Whether you have been here for 2 weeks or 2 years, we can all reflect on our experience.
Thank you all so much for an absolutely amazing first year, and here's to even more amazing ones to come! xD
