Arthritis Drug Should Be Removed From Market
Arava Linked to Liver Complications and Deaths, Public Citizen Tells FDA
WASHINGTON, D.C. — A prescription arthritis drug has been linked to an alarmingly high number of severe liver problems, including deaths, since it came to the market in 1998 and should be taken off the market immediately, the consumer group Public Citizen said today in a petition to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Arava, also known as leflunomide and produced by Aventis, was first marketed in the United States in September 1998 to treat rheumatoid arthritis. Over the next three years, it was associated with at least 130 cases of severe liver toxicity, including 56 hospitalizations and 12 deaths, according to FDA data. Two of those who died were in their 20s.
"To have this many deaths and severe reactions over such a short time is truly disturbing." said Dr. Sidney Wolfe, director of Public Citizen's Health Research Group, which submitted the petition. "When there are other treatments that are more effective and don't endanger patients as much as this drug, there is absolutely no reason for the FDA to keep Arava on the market."
In a comparison between Arava and methotrexate, which is an equally or more effective drug for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, Public Citizen found that over the three-year period it has been on the market, Arava was linked to six times more cases of fatal liver toxicity and 13 times more reports of hypertension than methotrexate, although there were 6.8 million (5.5 times) more prescriptions filled for methotrexate than Arava during that time. Additionally, Arava has been associated with 12 cases of the life-threatening autoimmune disease Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, and methotrexate with none.
Another danger of the drug is that it remains in body tissues for an extremely long time. Warnings already on its packaging suggest that byproducts could remain in the body for months, so that even if patients stopped the drug after an adverse reaction started, the damage could continue to affect patients for months.
Public Citizen's petition is supported by Dr. David E. Yocum, director of the Arizona Arthritis Center at Arizona Health Sciences Center, who recently ended a tenure as chair of the FDA's Arthritis Drugs Advisory Committee. Yocum said he agrees that the drug should be withdrawn from the market.
"I do not believe that the general rheumatologist understands or has any knowledge about these serious and potentially life-threatening complications," Yocum said in a letter to Wolfe. "I also agree that providing a black box warning concerning these issues may not be effective since no one can predict who will suffer from these complications."
Yocum has recently reported to the FDA the death of one of his patients from acute liver failure after using Arava.
After similar serious reactions to leflunomide in Europe, the European Agency for the Evaluation of Medicinal Products issued an urgent warning last year to patients and doctors about the drug's toxicity.
"Before it was approved by the FDA, there was evidence that leflunomide led to liver complications, and now the dangers are even clearer," Wolfe said. "No more patients should be subjected to these risks."

10 things you can do to green up your Thanksgiving
Finding a way to be green and thankful this holiday season.
Wed, Nov 17, 2010 at 11:29 AM
PRIMARY COLORS: Fresh leaves certainly brighten up the landscape. The tips below can make sure your days stay happy and bright this season. (Photo: sponselli/Flickr)
It's easy to get lost in the day-to-day tasks and requests that are the holidays. Here in the States, we take our holidays seriously. In the running, preparing, flight-catching days to come, how can you make sure your holiday is full of all the good things you love, but still be green?
10. Take the train. If your family lives on or very near a train line, why don't you get off the highways and out of the airplane terminals, and into the railway station. This, for many, may not be an option (hence its bottom rank on the list). However, many people forget that this system is out there waiting to serve a willing public, especially the D.C. area. The best parts of traveling are still a part of this mode of transportation: nice seats, short lines and no baggage limits or fees!
9. Pack light. You don't need five dresses, three pairs of pants and seven blouses for a four-day Thanksgiving excursion. Buckle down and go with the essentials. Lightening the load will not only be easy on your back, but also on your car's (or airplane's, believe it or not) efficiency. Also consider purchasing carbon-offset credits for your trip.
8. Order your protein in advance. If you are an omnivore, like many Americans, you are likely to have a lean protein be the main showcase of your holiday meals. If that's the case, find a local farmer who raises these animals. Why? Firstly, you can see first-hand how the animals are treated. Be sure they are raised and meet their ends in a humane manner. It is a sign of deep reverence and respect. And good for you to know, too.
7. Use real china. There was a study that concluded washing one ceramic mug took more resources than simply using one disposable coffee cup. This seems a little suspect. It's not entirely clear that the analysis took into account the amount of energy/resources it took to obtain the original cup resource (usually wood), transport it, mill it, process it, run it through a series of machines to create that cup shape, pack the cups for shipment (not to mention the origins and energy use to creat those packing materials), shipping it to the warehouse, then shipping it to the stores where they finally fall in the hands of an awaiting public (read: you). So, due to these suspicions, I think going with reusable cutlery and plates is the way to go. And since it's a holiday for love and family, break out the good stuff and make it a real event. If you have little ones or clumsy pals, there are many reusable plates made of renewable resources that won't break on impact (reusable bamboo is a popular option!). Also, break out the real cloth napkins, if you got 'em. Your loved ones deserve nothing but the best!
6. Turn off the TV. Watching the parade while prepping for your luscious meal is an enjoyable tradition. But leaving the TV on all day, even through meals, in some homes, isn't healthy for your electric bill or your family meal. This is a day for telling your loved ones how much you appreciate their presence in your life. Show them how much you mean it by turning off the game and starting good conversation, instead.
5. Get your wine from a local winery. And no, California isn't the only place for good wines. Virginia and Maryland have some fantastic local wineries. Check them out and get tastings to see which would go with your planned meal. Several in the area also make their own version of a "port," so ask about those, as well! The best part of it all, other than the fabulous time you'll have checking out all the wineries, is, again, supporting your local agriculture and a low carbon footprint due to the short distance that wine traveled from barrel to table.
4. Get your groceries on a week night. Going along with #2 and #3, if your local farmers market is already done for the season, or you're unable to get everything you need, then a trip to your friendly, neighborhood mega-mart is on your to-do list. If your grocery store is like many of the stores in the D.C. area, Saturdays and Sundays are super packed! It takes longer to park (higher carbon footprint), longer to get through the store and longer lines to pay (higher stress). Many locals find that Monday and Friday nights tend to be the best nights to shop. It's usually pretty quiet and you can get your list and then some done in less time than a weekend errand run.
3. Get your goodies at the local farmers market instead. Some farmers markets are still going strong, even this late in the season. If so, take advantage of them and get as many of your groceries as you can there before heading to the mega-mart! If money is tight, look for what the stands have the most of, so you can buy at least a few things and support your local farmers and economy. This time of year, it's squash. So, try a delicious side of baked or mashed squash instead of your traditional white potatoes or sweet potatoes. Recipe suggestion: Take 1 butternut squash, skinned and cubed, and toss it in olive oil, rosemary or thyme, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 40-45 minutes, or until tender. Yum!
2. Buy local. Buy local and organic, if you can. There is the long debate: do you buy local when shopping, or organic? Well, do both, when you can. However, going conventional and local over organic can have its upsides in certain cases. When you buy local, you know exactly where your food is coming from and it has less to travel to get to you. That means fresher, longer-lasting produce and a lower carbon footprint. There are some fruits and veggies commonly used this time of year that should be purchased organic, if you can, such as apples, celery, spinach and potatoes. Try to go with domestic produce, rather than imported, no matter which way you go. This supports American farmers and can also increase the amount of organic produce grown within our borders, if the economic support is there.
1. Tell everyone in your life "Happy Thanksgiving." This may not seem like a specifically "green" thing to do, but it's a large part of being green. Showing others, especially those with different political leanings, that you still wish them well this holiday season, reveals that the cornerstone of the green movement is compassion, kindness and sincerity. We are citizens together. Showing everyone in your life, especially those who disagree with you, that these essential traits are an integral part of who you are will hopefully translate into the understanding that they are also essential components of the green movement.
That said, I wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving. Thank you for all of your support of this blog and MNN.com. Best wishes to you and yours.

Kenai City Council to Hold Second Dipnet Work Session Next Week
The Kenai City Council has scheduled a second dipnet fishery work session, prior to next Wednesday's regularly scheduled council meeting. Kenai City Manager Rick Koch said that when it comes to managing the fishery, it's more than just fish waste..
Koch: "There were two problems, even if your 100% successful in dealing with the fish waste, there's still 15,000 people down there, that are going to inhibit local folks from being able to take advantage of the beach as they do the other months of the year. By solving the fish waste problem, you have almost two times the population of Kenai down there, in a one-mile area at the mouth of the river."
The work session will be held at 5:30pm on February 6th.

- Ansel Halle wonders if Nathan Gerbe could make the U.S. Olympic team (Too Many Men on the Site)
My Opinion: Gerbe started out the season on a tear, but has slowed down lately and that surely won't help his chances. Looking at the possibilities for the Americans, there's plenty of depth at wing and not a whole lot at center, which isn't going to help him at all.
However, most of the American wingers are bigger, slower guys that were used effectively in the last Olympics in Vancouver. But unlike the Vancouver games, these Olympics will be played on a bigger ice sheet.
That means the bigger wingers that play a rugged style of play can't be used to the best of their ability. It's a small chance, but Gerbe could be a skilled, faster option for U.S.

J. Robert Lyden of Canfield, Mahoning County's former sanitary engineer, complained that county officials did not treat him fairly when they investigated him and abruptly asked him to leave his position Friday.
"I'm disappointed that I had absolutely no notice and no opportunity to justify any actions or deny any charges," Lyden said Wednesday, adding that he underwent no discipline during his county employment.
Lyden left under a cloud of allegations concerning favor- itism toward Dave Sugar Excavating Inc., of Petersburg, and concerning Lyden's relationship with a female heroin addict, who is charged with extorting money from him.
Lyden said John A. McNally IV, chairman of the county commissioners, called him at 8 p.m. Thursday and told him the commissioners desired to "move in a new direction" with regard to the sanitary engineer's job and asked him to turn in his county vehicle by 4 p.m. Friday.
McNally said Thursday was a busy day for him and he tried twice, unsuccessfully, to reach Lyden by telephone at the sanitary engineer's office during business hours Thursday afternoon. McNally said he never went to the sanitary engineer's office to talk to Lyden in person about the commissioners' decision "because my schedule wasn't working out that way that day."
Lyden said McNally could have reached him on his cellphone during those hours, even if Lyden was at a construction site or sewage treatment plant.
McNally said he told Lyden he would either have to resign and depart by 4 p.m. Friday, or the commissioners would conduct a special meeting Monday to decide what action to take concerning his employment.
"I'm very angry. I'm angry at the county. I'm angry at Bob" for his actions, said Lyden's wife, Mary "Roby" Lyden, who ran unsuccessfully against McNally in the 2008 Democratic primary. "They gave him [Lyden] no opportunity to explain himself in any way," she said of county officials.
"Nothing I've done in this case has anything to do with any political differences," said McNally, who cast the sole dissenting vote against hiring Lyden as sanitary engineer in September 2010 at an $85,000 annual salary.
The sanitary engineer is appointed by, and serves at the pleasure of, the county commissioners.
McNally and Commissioner Carol Rimedio-Righetti said they decided Lyden should leave based on a report they had requested from Rachel L. Livengood, county human resources director, which said Lyden was showing favoritism toward Sugar.
Livengood acknowledged in her July 12 report to the commissioners that she never discussed the allegations with Lyden.
Lyden said that he was unaware of any attempt by Livengood to interview him during her probe. Livengood and Sugar could not be reached for comment.
Based on the interviews and review of documents she conducted, Livengood concluded that "Sugar enjoys a relationship with the Mahoning County sanitary engineer, Robert Lyden, that provides a level of access that is not available to other vendors."
She added: "This relationship appears to have resulted in expedited payments to Dave Sugar Excavating, access to proposed plans for unbid projects" and plan design changes that don't follow the customary change order process.
"I was trying to get a fair shake for Dave Sugar and any [other] nonunion contractor in Mahoning County," Lyden said of sewer and water supply line construction projects.
"There's a strong feeling that only union contractors should get jobs in Mahoning County," Lyden said, noting that the county commissioners have passed a project labor agreement policy, which requires contractors be unionized if the job's value is more than $1 million.
David Sugar Sr. was sentenced to 30 days in prison and fined $10,000 by a federal judge in 2003 after Sugar pleaded guilty to lying to a grand jury about whether his company billed and received payment from former U.S. Rep. James A. Traficant Jr. for about $11,000 worth of work at the then-congressman's 76-acre horse farm in Greenford.
The allegations concerning Lyden's relationship with a heroin addict were investigated by Canfield police, who charged Gloria J. Prottengeier, 37, of Salem, with extortion, a third-degree felony.
Prottengeier waived her preliminary hearing and was bound over in April from Canfield court to the Mahoning County grand jury, but she has signed a waiver of the 60-day time limit between her bind-over and the presentation of her case to the grand jury.
In a Wednesday interview, Lyden denied Prottengeier's allegations that he met her in a county vehicle and that he bought heroin for her, calling the allegation that he bought heroin for her "absolutely ludicrous."
In their report, Canfield police detectives said Lyden told them he paid Prottengeier for sex and does not know why she denied that. Police also said Lyden admitted meeting with her in his county-issued vehicle, speaking with her on his county-issued telephone and meeting with her on county work time.
Police said Prottengeier admitted extortion, so they filed the charge.
Police said they filed the charge despite Lyden's request that the case be closed without the filing of criminal charges, if Prottengeier agreed not to call him anymore, because he feared discipline by the county if the criminal case against her went forward.
Prottengeier and her lawyer, Thomas E. Zena, could not be reached for comment.
Lyden has not been charged with any crime.
Mahoning County Prosecutor Paul J. Gains said he spoke with Canfield Police Chief Chuck Colucci and with officials of the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation concerning the case.
"Everybody's in agreement that it does not rise to a criminal level," Gains said of Lyden's alleged use of a county vehicle and telephone in his relationship with Prottengeier.
"The woman making the allegations is charged with a criminal offense," Gains said. "There's no independent evidence to corroborate what she claims occurred."
Gains declined to comment on why the Prottengeier case has not yet been presented to the grand jury or whether anyone other than Livengood is investigating the allegation of favoritism for Dave Sugar.
Righetti said she was unaware of the allegations in the Canfield police report when commissioners decided to ask Lyden to leave his job.
McNally said he had heard rumors about the Canfield allegations, but he said Canfield police declined to discuss them with him during the weekend before McNally asked Lyden to leave his job.
Commissioner Anthony T. Traficanti declined to comment.
Good comment knightcap, REMEMBER NOVEMBER starve the beast!
Instead of complaining about being treated unfair, Mr. Lyden should be expressing gratitude that his only punishment for his actions is dismissal.
How about treating the taxpayers fair? Is it fair to collect a public paycheck while spending a good amount of time cavorting with strippers and making deals with contractors?
If the commissioners were to tally up all of the wages he collected while not actually working, it seems that a compelling case could be made for a theft in office charge. Now that would be fair treatment!
This guy cavorts with a hooker and his wife is mad at the county?
Only in Mahoning County.
This guy should have a GIANT "L" put on his forehead for: "LOSER."
No Mr. Lyden, we the taxpayers were not treated fairly! Bidding contractors were not treated fairly!
Your lovely wife was not treated fairly!
You, in my opinion, were given a chance to slink out of the picture, probably keeping a pension. That seems way too fair for my tastes. I'd suggest the rail, feathers and tar.
Oh .... try some cheese with that whine!
$85,000 and a County car...and now you lost it all...hope it was worth it!
Cheated on his wife, abused his office, violated any trust he had with the taxpayers who funded his salary/car/benefits, et cetera, ad nauseum. And now he says he was not treated fairly? We can add one more to the list of pejorative adjectives: crybaby.
Sex with a heroin addict
Negatives: AIDS, hepatitus, other STD's
Positives: No teeth to hurt the tallywacker
The commissioners signing a PLA is what's wrong here. PLA's are nothing but promises that the unions won't cause trouble at projects because you have to hire union workers. The PLA agreement will cost much more than what was squandered by Lyden's misuse of county time and vehicle usage. But look at the bright side. Before only Lyden was getting ___ now thanks to the commissioners signing the PLA we are all getting some.
at least it wasn't a male heroin addict he was cavorting with.
@lumper...what is the difference, still a heroin addict.

TNA 2010: The Diary Of A Legacy! A Whole Different Kind Of BTB!
What If...
The basis of this entire btb is based around....what if TNA pretty much fell down to it's death in late 2010? What if the Hogan/Bischoff regime had counted it's losses and just left TNA high and dry? What if TNA had lost their deal with Universal Studios and had to find another place to run their wrestling shows? What if SpikeTV upon hearing about Universal Studios stopping negotiations with TNA, what if Spike TV had pulled out of their television deal with TNA, leaving Dixie Carter along with Panda Energy no other choice but to close down TNA or go bankrupt? All questions that might have been the reason why the company that Jeff and Jerry Jarrett founded just 9 short years ago, ended up finally falling down. With WWE as the huge marquee in American professional wrestling, would there ever be another chance for another mainstream wrestling promotion to come into the spotlight?
The Game
I am going to write this as not just a typical match/results be the booker. I am going to more so write it as journal entries or a book of some sort about the revamping and resurrection of TNA. I had gotten this idea originally from another guy who was doing a WCW BTB like this on another forum, but this is going to have it's own little spin on it, focusing a lot on what happened behind the scenes to possibly revive TNA. I am starting from scratch in a sense, because the Bischoff/Hogan regime is over. The SpikeTV and Universal Studios deal is over. And even Dixie Carter/Panda Energy is over. However, I am still keeping the same relationships and history of TNA intact. Everything that has happened up until now (in the actual TNA) has actually happened in my btb. The only thing that I am changing about the scenario is what is going to happen in the future for TNA. Because TNA pretty much having to start over at step one and the Jarrett's having to find a new source to fund the company, many to most of the talent has left, while a few others have stayed around because of their loyalty to the brand (mostly made up of the guys who were there from the very beginning). This is beginning on December 1st, 2010 and will be spread out over months as separate journal entries.
I will have more posts and replies to this thread coming up soon and I hope to get this started as soon as I can!

Re: TNA 2010: The Diary Of A Legacy! A Whole Different Kind Of BTB!
A BTB revolving around the Fall and Rise Again of TNA would certainly be interesting. Of course, I'm sure that TNA could find somewhere else to do their shows, but if they went on the road they'd probably get WCW 2001 attendance rates. I'll follow this.
If I could give you some sort of suggestion, you should mention the failed talks Dixie Carter had with Paul Heyman. It'd certainly be good to add it.

Thanks my man! Yeah I was definitely planning on addressing that to an extent. But you gave me even more ideas with the Heyman thing (:
I appreciate it. The first journal entry should be up tonight. =]

Re: TNA 2010: The Diary Of A Legacy! A Whole Different Kind Of BTB!
Total Nonstop Action
The Prologue: A Dust In The Wind
2010 was a crazy year for the world of professional wrestling, it was especially a crazy year for WWE rival (using that term loosely) TNA, Total Nonstop Action. With TNA being a fairly young company, only 8 years to be exact, TNA has definitely went through it's fair share of ups and downs. In the beginning, TNA was founded by legendary wrestling promoter Jerry Jarrett and wrestling superstar Jeff Jarrett. TNA was founded in part because of the demise of WCW and the creation of a professional wrestling monopoly by WWE CEO Vince Mcmahon. TNA's first official show was then held at TNA's famous "Asylum" in Nashville, Tennessee on June 19, 2002 (Nashville, Tennessee became the site where TNA was based from). In the beginning, The Jarretts worked out a licensing deal with the NWA and they affiliated their promotion with the NWA World Heavyweight Championship and NWA Tag Team Championships, in which they withdrew from the NWA in 2004 (and finally withdrawing from using the NWA title belts in 2007). TNA was originally intended to be shown through weekly pay per views, but it soon had to change so that they could get national exposure through cable. FOX Sports Net was the very first to pick up, and on June 4th, 2004, TNA aired it's first official network television episode which would take the name "TNA Impact!". The Impact name would carry on through TNA's many trials and tribulations. After TNA's contract with FOX Sports Net was not renewed the following year, this forced TNA to be without a television network to broadcast their show on and they would be forced to broadcast their television show on their website. TNA later secured a deal with Spike TV and aired it's first episode in October of 2005. TNA has remained with Spike TV since then and has had many peaks and valley's along with it.
TNA with the Spike TV deal had secured themselves with being the formidable number two promotion in the United States, behind the WWE. As time went on TNA would try to pick up on big names in the wrestling business (mostly guys who were working with the WWE, had worked for the WWE, or had worked for the then defunct WCW). TNA would capitalize by signing names like Sting, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Booker T, Christian, Scott Steiner, Mick Foley, Dustin Rhodes, Konnan, Kurt Angle, and many others. But the one problem that they faced is that no matter how many of these big names that they brought in, they would still serve no real competition to the WWE. The entire world knew what the WWE/F was, but only a small minority of the general public even knew that TNA existed, which is something that WCW during the 90s never had to struggle with. TNA couldnt realize that bringing a big name in during the territory days might have been able to jumpstart the entire promotion. But now since most to all the major territories were long gone, this formula wouldnt work because now everyone was overexposed to a degree with national programming like the WWE and WCW had. TNA would begin to try and build their entire promotion around Kurt Angle, another former WWE guy who they had brought in to jumpstart the promotion. Unfortunately for TNA this never seemed to happen and even with the big names that they brought in, they were still unable to get anywhere close to the WWE numbers (both television ratings and attendance rates). As time went on though, former WWF and WCW writer Vince Russo booked TNA in its many different reincarnations, with TNA getting sucked into the same Russo Created The Attitude Era illusion that WCW did back in 1999. TNA continuously promised change and innovation to the professional wrestling fans, but it never seemed to live up to the hype that TNA built it up as. With mediocre soap opera like storylines that tried to copy the format that WWE had mastered, and tons of false hope from TNA authorities, one could see that TNA was soon on its path of demise.
Now lets fast forward to the end of 2009. The Jarretts have lost major control of TNA to business entrepreneur Dixie Carter (now president of TNA) and Panda Energy who own a controlling share of TNA. It was then that one of wrestlings biggest announcements would take place. The huge announcement that wrestling legend and superstar Hulk Hogan along with former WCW Executive Producer Eric Bischoff. Eric Bischoff was notable for leading WCW to almost a 2 year straight television ratings victory over the WWF in the late 1990s. Bischoff was also responsible for creating the NWO, one of, if not the greatest wrestling story line to ever hit the United States. The fact that TNA was now getting two legends like Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff to come into the fold, it would be destined to rejuvenate TNA and bring back quite possibly the hottest time professional wrestling has ever seen, The Monday Night Wars.

Heh, I take it when you said it was based on another BTB in a different forum you were talking about mine, I'm flattered lol. Anyway, I love the concept, as you can kinda carve the promotion into the way you want, if wrote well, which I'm sure it will be, it could be very very interesting, so I'll follow. Good luck.

Total Nonstop Action
October 2010: The Beginning Of The End
But as the Bischoff/Hogan regime took effect, the hype was there, but the quality of the show wasn't. After the very first show under the Bischoff/Hogan regime hit a TNA all-time high television rating, it continued to go down in the ratings in the following weeks. Upon Hogan and Bischoff coming to TNA they signed wrestlers who were either well past their prime or guys that the WWE didn't want anymore, such as The Nasty Boys, Ric Flair, Rob Van Dam, Mr. Anderson, and maybe the biggest liability yet…Jeff Hardy. With all of the older guys coming in it would seem like the company that supposedly thrived on being cutting edge and utilizing the young talent to take the ball and run with it, would soon become the land of old timers and WWE rejects. TNA had been held together in the past by their own home grown talent, like Samoa Joe, Beer Money, The Motor City Machine Guns, Abyss, and quite possibly their biggest star of all…AJ Styles.
At the time of the Bischoff/Hogan regime AJ Styles was the TNA World Heavyweight Champion and he was set to defeat Kurt Angle at the next pay per view "Genesis" for the TNA World title. This pay per event would be the first pay per view that the Bischoff/Hogan regime would take on, in which it would be highlighted by AJ Styles turning heel and aligning himself with professional wrestling legend, Ric Flair. The fact that AJ Styles was turning heel was a risky move at the time, but it was perceived that Ric Flair would be able to give him that rub to allow AJ to shoot to the moon and be one of the best heels in the business. That didn't actually manifest itself, because AJ did not turn into the greatest heel in the business, he just turned into the greatest Ric Flair impersonator in the business. Jay Lethal might have even gotten a little jealous at first. But AJ Styles would not just be a heel, but he would be almost a carbon copy of the Ric Flair heel persona back in the 1980's.
At another attempt from Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan to try and compete with the WWE, they would decide to start airing their wrestling show head to head with the WWE's flagship program Monday Night RAW, just as WCW had done 15 years prior with Monday Night Nitro. Only difference was, this was a much different time. The WWE was not the multi billion dollar publicly funded corporation that they were in 2010, and TNA was light years away from being the corporation that WCW was in 1995. Mere weeks after Spike TV agreed to give TNA a Monday prime time slot against WWE RAW, they would have to reconsider that compromise and move TNA back to Thursday nights. This would prove to be a crushing blow for TNA and would break a lot of the momentum that they had early on in this Bischoff/Hogan regime…or at least the momentum that they thought they had.
It wasn't until Rob Van Dam came into the company that Hogan and Bischoff decided that they needed a new face for TNA, and that face would be none other than 39 year old Rob Van Dam. He would defeat AJ Styles for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship belt on an episode of Impact in April. The crowd buzz in the Impact Zone at first seemed to be very positive of RVD becoming the new face of TNA, but as weeks came and went, RVD became just another face that TNA would try to force down our throats, instead of utilizing their own home grown talent.
Another misfortune for TNA would come when creative would decide that Abyss's monster character did not have enough depth to it, so what would be the best way to give a character more depth and originality? They could give him another cheap imitation carbon copy persona like they did with AJ Styles and Ric Flair, except this time they would turn this barbaric, sadistic, and ruthless monster Abyss and turn him into Hulk A Mania 2.0. This would turn into another let down for the TNA fans and ratings would continue to plummet even further, back down to dangling on the 1.0 ratings range.
TNA desperate with getting SpikeTV's approval would try to bring back even more wrestlers who were well past their prime and they would try to hold another half assed reunion show for the defunct ECW, which had little relevance during the WWE's first reincarnation in 2005, and had little to no relevance in the year 2010 for TNA. This would continue on for months as TNA would try to paint the ECW guys as the baby face team against the super heel group led by Ric Flair and many of the TNA originals. The only problem is….the fans didn't want to see a bunch of 40 year olds with their bellies hanging out of their jock straps. The TNA fans wanted to see the group of guys who brought them to the dance, the guys who aren't old enough to remember the Gerald Ford administration as the ones who are "protecting TNA".
Months would pass by and TNA would still be looked at as the second rate wrestling program with meaningless story lines and no real baby faces that the fans could get behind. TNA would continue struggling to get up to a 1.0 television rating. Not only would TNA fans start getting more and more frustrated with TNA's product…but so would SpikeTV and their response with the plateau'ing television ratings for TNA. This would be enough for even Dixie Carter to realize that maybe Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff weren't the saviors of TNA wrestling that they had been painted up as being.
Dixie Carter would realize that she would need someone with an innovative mind and someone who would know how to come up with booking ideals that could change the face of professional wrestling. And what better person for the job than former ECW booker, Paul Heyman. Dixie Carter would try to negotiate a deal with Paul Heyman, but it would be to no avail. Heyman would give her an ultimatum that if he was to come into TNA to "turn it around", he would require that she would give him full creative control and control over all business of TNA. Dixie Carter would be hesitant to give in to Heyman's demands, and would in the end say "no" after talking it over with business partners Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan. Only thing is…Eric Bischoff and Hulk Hogan were more concerned with keeping their jobs and their inflated contracts than with helping the TNA brand. Dixie Carter would go back to try and ask Heyman once again by offering him a huge contract and other benefits, but Heyman would reiterate what he said before by telling Dixie that not only would he want full control, but his first plans in TNA would be to get rid of all the guys whom he felt were draining TNA for the worse. Heyman told Dixie that TNA would have a hard time separating themselves as the innovative non stop action promotion when they have guys like Hogan, Flair, Sting, and even Jeff Jarrett running around the promotion with the air time. This would turn out to quite possibly be the biggest mistake that Dixie Carter would ever make for TNA by simply just listening to the political games that the Bischoff/Hogan gang was spewing at her, along with current TNA wrestling writer Vince Russo.
As the television ratings continued to plummet down to ratings around the 0.7 range by early October, SpikeTV would decide to give TNA president Dixie Carter an ultimatum that if television ratings did not rise back up to at least a 1.0 within the next 3 weeks of programming, that they would have no other alternative then to not renew their television deal with TNA wrestling on November 1st. Things would certainly not be getting any better.
OOC: Sorry, it took me so long to post up another journal entry. But I can promise that more will be coming...and at a faster rate (: Thank you all for reading!

TORONTO (AP) -- Tampa Bay Rays right-hander Alex Cobb, who sustained a concussion when he was hit in the head by a batted ball in June, is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment with Class-A Charlotte on Tuesday.
Cobb, 6-2 with a 3.01 ERA in 13 starts, was cleared on Friday to begin his rehab after throwing 59 pitches in a four inning simulated game at Tampa Bay's spring training complex one day earlier.
Cobb was struck in the right ear by a liner from Kansas City's Eric Hosmer on June 15. He was hospitalized overnight after being carted off the field, and was bothered by vertigo for several weeks.
He began throwing bullpen sessions on July 5 and advanced to pitching to hitters in live batting practice on July 14.
Rays manager Joe Maddon said Cobb will make at least two minor league starts before returning to the majors in early August.

Five Guys Burgers Opens in Carson [moved from L.A. board]
- s
- SoCal Foodie May 29, 2008 03:28 PM
I've been informed that the Five Guys burger chain from the East Coast has opened their first location in California (Carson) last week with 30 more franchises slated to open in SoCal. They are apparently as popular to the East Coast as In-N-Out is to us. Has anyone tried their burgers or fries?
I actually just had their food in Dulles airport in DC a few days ago. It was surprisingly good for fast food or airport food, for that matter. The "little" cheeseburger was around $2.95 and actually quite big (much bigger than in-n-out, but much smaller than a restaurant burger). The nice thing is that a lot of better toppings are free, including not only grilled onions but also grilled mushrooms, and the toppings were very fresh. Burger itself was flavorful. The fries were nice and crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, but weren't seasoned at all--I had to add a bunch of salt and pepper myself. The smaller size of fries was actually a huge portion. All in all, for $5 I got a lot of food that was higher quality than most fast food I've tasted. That said, it's still fast food...I don't think I'd go out of my way to visit a So Cal location, but if I was in the area and hungry it would definitely be a good, cheap choice.
Tried Five Guys when I was in South Carolina. Thought the beef was a bit dry, and the fries were not that great -- a bit too greasy. It honestly reminded a bit of a Wendy's burger. I'm probably biased, but I think INO is better than FG.
I think the best chain burger I've had recently had to have been at Smashburger, which I understand is also trying to penetrate the SoCal market.
I tried Five Guys in Philadelphia. The burgers were decent, especially for fast food, and the "little" burgers are definitely big enough w/1 patty. I agree that having the variety of toppings listed and free is a plus!! They were very generous on the fries, though greasy as ipsedixit mentioned. I had the cajun fries which seemed only lightly seasoned w/Old Bay.
I haven't been to In-N-Out in a while but given the differences between the 2 places, I'd be happy going to whichever is closest.
Just came back from NYC and the last meal I had was 5 Guys and it was the weakest meal of my trip. Some people seem to dig it, its not any better than Fatburger - but the size(smaller than fat, thicker than In n Out) has its t appeal and In n Out dont do bacon. Not bad to have around but I wouldnt go out of my way to eat there.
If these reports are accurate, Five Guys has gone downhill as the company has exploded in size over the 10 years since I lived near their original few outlets in the Washington, DC, area. Back then, their hamburgers were as much better than INO as the latter are better than McDonald's. In fact, if memory serves, they were as good as all but the very best California burgers -- juicy, well-flavored beef, a large assortment of toppings, and very good fries (not to mention free peanuts). I'll check the new branch in Carson and compare them to memory.
I prefer In-n-Out burgers. Five Guys burgers have annoyingly soft, chewy buns and the meat is a little overcooked. Much better than the Big 3, but not as good as In-n-Out. The fries are very good, but the smallest order is much too large (and correspondingly expensive: $2.29 here).
I work in Carson, so it was good to try a new hamburger place. My favorite fast food burgers are Fatburger, Tommy's and In N Out, in that order.
I ordered the hamburger with regular fries. The burger meat was dry and the bun was very undersized. I liked the fries, though, much better than In N Out or Tommy's, but not as good as Fatburger.
Tommy's and In N Out are the much better value.
Fatburger is comparable in price but a much better product all around..
I feel left out. Here in S. Jersey we have no Fatburger, Tommy's or In N Out. We also lack Jack in the Box (I like the Jumbo Jack) and Carl's Jr. We do have Five Guys and in Williamstown there is a Fudrucker's. I prefer FG - I like their toppings, their french fries with malt vinegar and the free peanuts.
Being from the DC area, some locations are better than others, I like the original one the best, I think their relationship with local vendors here probably helps. They use a lot of Old Bay on the fries here and as a MD-ex pat I LOVE old bay and malt vinegar on my fries, so that is one of the big draws. It isn't my favorite burger place here, I like Cheeburger Cheeburger or some local places better, but in an area where it is "food court" choices or when I am short on cash and don't feel like cooking or driving Five Guys definitely hits the spot. Getting the fries from the store back to work without them getting soggy is an art form in these parts. You need to get them out of the bag quickly. I can't wait for our Counterburger to open as it will be the first one in these parts and I like a variety of toppings on my burger.
re: ktmoomau
KT - you should try BGR, the burger joint, in Bethesda, MD, at the Woodmont triangle. I, too, loved the original 5 Guys, but it is inconsistent from store to store. BGR has really good burgers and twice cooked fries.
re: nickdanger
Right at the moment I am really partial to Eat Bar in Arlington, it isn't a chain, but it is good Next time I am up that way though I will definitely do that, though. I am always on the lookout for a good burger :)

Researching prospects is an important part of the sales process. You often need to find a prospect's information such as their email or phone number before you can connect with them. Knowing where to search for someone's contact details can be challenging if you don't know where to look.

If you live in the reality that most of us do, closing a sale is always a challenge. It is an absolute necessity, but a continuous, ongoing challenge. We have pulled together a few tips that we believe, whether you are a startup or an established company, will help you to close a sale faster.

I meet a lot of startups and small businesses every month. This could be at an event at MaRS, over a coffee at Te Aro on Queen Street or at the office of a potential business partner or a new prospect. As we talk about their sales and marketing challenges and potential strategies and tactics we can use, I am often asked how VA Partners finds new customers.
The strategies we use are actually quite simple, and any business can start implementing these right away to get more clients. Here's the complete list of techniques we use that got us 12 new B2B customers over the past six months.

Neighbourhood watch
Artist Andrew Lamb has given the neighborhood watch signs a revamp by fixing photos of superheroes to the existing signs. Recognizing that he is vandalizing public property, he said he does not feel it's "ethically or morally wrong", but hopes that "it's just spontaneous nostalgia and happiness, the kind of vandalism you can bring home to mom".

Sports guys love to be tough, to be bad asses all the time – especially football players. I'm here to tell you to soften up on this Mother's Day and take a step back for a moment and remember all she has done for you.
My Mom was a sports fan, though it didn't seem like it when I was growing up – I was too busy being a bad ass. But think about your own life. When you were busy batting baseballs in little league, bouncing off tackling dummies in youth football, or running the pick and roll in the rec basketball league, there was always somebody there and it was most likely your Mom.
I wanted to be a professional athlete, any kind of professional athlete – but I also wanted to be an astronaut and President of the United States. My Mom understood that and supported me in those early endeavors on the fields and courts. But she also guided me and showed me, in her own quiet way, that being an athlete probably wasn't going to be my lot in life. She encouraged me to work more toward the astronaut or president thing.
But as I grew into a teenager, I knew becoming an astronaut wasn't going to happen either … and as for president … after watching the 1960s pass, well I probably wasn't into that either.
But through it all, there was sports. I had friends who were really good athletes and I followed all the professional sports I could. My Mom encouraged that side of sports in my life. But she was also there when I played every sport I could in high school, even though deep down we both knew it was only for character and body building.
And it was the character building part that was most important. We all go through rough patches on the field of competition – even the best of the best have lost – it's what helps us to learn how to win. My Mom was there when our high school basketball team went 0-18 back in 1973. But she was there when we were 13-5 in 1975.
As a Green Bay Packers fan, I remember going to my grandmother's house to watch because she had a color television. The Packers were winners – big winners – in those years. But when the 1970s hit, things changed, but I didn't. I still loved the team and hoped for the best. It was my Mom who taught me that perseverance. She knew that 60 to 70 percent of those Mondays in the 1970s through the 1980s were pretty bad because we had to wake up to a Packers loss most of the time. She was a fan, too, though she didn't show it as much as we did.
She always sided with us when our Dad, Yochen the Vikings fan, would chide us when Minnesota won all those games through the 1970s and 1980s. Now that he's gone, she's still with us today and enjoying these renewed Packers glory years.
I'm sure many of you Packers fans have had similar experiences as athletes, as wanna-be athletes, as Packers fans.
You can probably thank your Mom for your growth as a person.
Today, we are all fans, but more importantly we should all be fans of our Mom.
Happy Mother's Day, Mom!

This year's edition of CineKink NYC, now in the final day of its Kickstarter fundraising drive, wastes no time heating up, opening on February 26 with a cinematic bang in the form of Wiktor Ericsson's The Sarnos: A Life in Dirty Movies, a stellar pic about softcore pornographers with a love story at its heart. (The festival's gala kickoff party is the day before, February 25.) The titular elderly couple at the center of this doc are the legendary porn director Joe — the "Ingmar Bergman of 42nd Street" — and his longtime wife and support system (and sometime actress) […]by Lauren Wissot on Feb 22, 2014
Tomas Leach's In No Great Hurry – 13 Lessons in Life with Saul Leiter was one of my few true discoveries of 2013. While covering the Thin Line Film Fest in Denton, Texas, I pretty much stumbled upon Leach's poignant portrait of the legendary NYC photographer in his final years — Leiter died this past November — without knowing much about the man who ushered in the use of color photography. Since that February fest Leach's film has gone on to screen DOC NYC and now premieres theatrically at the Film Society of Lincoln Center on January 3rd. Filmmaker spoke […]by Lauren Wissot on Jan 3, 2014
Two highly unique minds converge in Is the Man Who Is Tall Happy?, the latest from whimsical visionary Michel Gondry, who aptly subtitles his film, "An Animated Conversation with Noam Chomsky." In the works for four years, this self-explanatory project from the artist behind Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Dave Chapelle's Block Party, and a veritable library of music videos is a charming and markedly low-tech doc that literally illustrates the insights of Chomsky, one of the greatest thinkers of our time. Ever-fascinated by the depths of the human brain, and ever-faithful in dressing his films with cartoon-like touches, […]by R. Kurt Osenlund on Nov 21, 2013
"I feel so sorry for people who are not living in Detroit," says activist icon Grace Lee Boggs, as she stands before a dilapidated cityscape in the opening sequence of American Revolutionary: The Evolution of Grace Lee Boggs. A Marxist and lifelong Hegel disciple, the Chinese-American Lee Boggs gained notoriety in the Civil Rights and Black Power movements, alongside her husband Jimmy Boggs, in the mid-20th Century. Today, she is still ardently devoted to her adopted hometown of more than half a century, galvanizing the local communities in her effort to revive the industrial wasteland that has become of Detroit.

The following is a guest post from Jeremy Xido, the director of Death Metal Angola, which screens at DOC NYC on November 16. A few years ago, I was traveling through Angola researching a film about a railway when I stopped at the only cafe in Huambo, the country's bombed-out second city, that served a decent cup of coffee. A young man with tiny dreadlocks in a blue button-down Oxford shirt waved me over. I sat with him for a while and chatted. We talked about what I was doing there and I asked him about himself. He said he […]by Jeremy Xido on Nov 15, 2013
"How do you cover up cellulite? With glitter and a spotlight." These words of wisdom from the legendary NYC, splendidly zaftig, female drag queen World Famous *BOB* pretty much sum up the ethos of legendary NYC, underground filmmaker Beth B's latest doc-extravaganza Exposed, a behind-the-scenes peep at today's proudly subversive burlesque movement. Its performers include folks like Rose Wood, a biologically male strip-teaser brought into the scene by biologically female drag queen Dirty Martini, and Mat Fraser, perhaps the sexiest Seal Boy – also the name of his critically-hailed one-man show – on the planet. (Sorry boys and girls, this […]by Lauren Wissot on Nov 14, 2013
In only its fourth year, DOC NYC feels like an institution. Nestled in the calendar alongside the concluding CPH:DOX (where I'm writing this from Copenhagen) and Amsterdam's mammoth IDFA, this edition of DOC NYC, under the usual steady hand of artistic director Thom Powers, boasts an even more impressive blend of world and New York-premieres, Gotham-centric special events and panels for both audience and industry. Here are 10 picks, some films I'm excited about seeing along with one I have seen and can highly recommend. Is the Man Who is Tall Happy? In the former category is the world-premiering collaboration […]by Scott Macaulay on Nov 14, 2013
The Mekons are the ultimate cult band. They may not have a huge audience, but their hardy host of admirers takes the British-born band and its three-and-a-half-decade history very seriously. The Mekons emerged as U.K. post-punk's art-school pranksters in the late '70s, and after major shifts in personnel and approach, eventually evolved into a sort of sonic polyglot encompassing folk, country, world music, and more. Throughout their rough-and-tumble career they've maintained a doggedly DIY modus operandi, eschewing complacency and creating more and more fodder for the intensity of their underground acclaim. At the start of 2008, another impassioned admirer, documentarian […]by Jim Allen on Nov 14, 2013
The coming-of-age tale is a durable independent film genre, but it takes on added political and personal dimensions in I Learn America, Jean-Michel Dissard and Gitte Peng's documentary about five new teenage immigrants within New York's public school system. Dissard, a dual citizen who immigrated himself from France when he was a teenager (and with whom I worked with on Raising Victor Vargas), and Peng, an education reform expert who worked in the Bloomberg administration, embrace within the film the emotional complexity of their subjects' lives while an exhaustive outreach campaign amplifies its various messages and policy implications. I Learn […]by Scott Macaulay on Nov 13, 2013
Wedged between international documentary mega-fests CPH:DOX and IDFA on the festival calendar, this country's largest documentary film fest DOC NYC might seem a humble affair. (Indeed, the four-year-old DOC NYC is downright cozy and laidback compared to Amsterdam's industry-driven shindig where making sales often eclipses enjoying the sheer pleasure of cinema.) This year's lineup features 131 films and events, including 11 world premieres and 9 US premieres – not to mention high-caliber attendees from Noam Chomsky to Michel Gondry, to Sarah Polley and Oliver Stone. Yet several small gems that I've written about at prior fests are every bit as […]by Lauren Wissot on Nov 13, 2013

Hi, I buy your work, is so good!! i like it, well done (5stars)!! i have just 1 question if is possible: if i visit the webpage on mobile(iphone-ipad-samsung-ecc) i must clik 2 time the icon, 1st to select(and change color) 2nd for show it. in your opinion Is possible to do just 1 clik on "mobile" browser ? ty so much for your work. Carlo
great, ty so much! 1 question: must I re-update all file or just update javasript-jquery or somthing else htlm page?
I just downloaded the update and now when i click any of the links that link to a page like home/portfolio nothing happens. the social buttons work fine. but none of the actual site pages work now
Hey, thank you for your purchase and I am sorry that you are experiencing this. Can you please provide me with a link to page where The Compass is hosted? I will be glad to debug it for you.
Love your theme, I wanted almost exactly this kind of layout so I'm very happy to have bumped into this..
Some questions: I don't want to use the icons from the repo so I made my own png's and instead of the tags for the icons I just used an tag. Only problem now is that they are rotated How do I fix this?
Another thing, I tried to make the buttons bigger, which worked and I repositioned them, but the 'circle' they're around also needs to get bigger. (the icons get bigger and stay above the .main .circle).
Couldn't find that css line …
I've downloaded this template and I'm experiencing problems. I've opened it. Once I open index and try navigate to the pages it does not work, unless I try open the external links such as twitter, so basically the portfolio, resume and about pages do not load. Also when I navigate to the page section in pages, the information isn't styled. It seems the pages aren't linked and they have no styling. What do I do?
If anyone is reading this and knows how to resolve any issues with this template as from my previous comment it is not working, please email firstname.lastname@example.com. It seems the developer will not respond as of yet and the website itself hasn't done also. I'm not overly impressed as the money has gone out of my account and i'm left with a template that is barely functional.
This theme is really great. I've purchased for a very small and simple project I have. Anyway, I've set it all up, and tested it on popular browsers (Chrome, FF, IE). However, I notice that the animations and the homepage text isn't displayed on IE.
Now we all know that IE is crap, and I don't really mind the animations not working, however, the homepage text not working is an issue for me.
If you want to check, the URL is http://theinfamousbiker.com
Sorry for the delayed response. I just checked out your site, looks awesome!!
As far as IE goes, yes animations do not work on IE do to lack of CSS3 support. I made sure that IE at least shows the minimum, without all the sexiness. However, I do not understand the issue with the "homepage text" can you please elaborate or email me with the screenshot? my email is email@example.com
Hey, this should be fixed now!
Hey Sonny,
I was wondering if you could give me a little bit of help with the theme please? I'm not sure if this is covered under the scope of the support in place with the theme, so if it isn't, I totally understand.
What I'm looking to do is change the background of the site to an image, rather than a colour. So I've gone into the color directory under assets, and had a look at the CSS. However, it's not clear which line I need to change in order to set a static image as the background.
Could you assist please?
Hey Kev,
Yes of course, open the css file of the color you're planing on using. Edit the line 5. Replace the `background: #363f48;` with `background: url(IMG URL HERE);`
This should be it, Let me know if this helps.
Ah ha!
That's where the problem was, I was using background:url ('image.jpg');
Had the syntax slightly wrong. Thanks Sonny, that worked great.
awesome, glad to help
Hey, loved your work and would love to use it but i have one question, how is the blog working, do i link it to my personal blog or is there a backend cms?
With this version you can only link to an external blog. However you can download the Wordpress version of this theme at http://themeforest.net/item/the-wp-compass-modern-blog-vcard-portfolio/6790904 to have fully featured blog and everything.
How do I use one of the triggers as a phone number.
it doesnt work. what am I missing here…. thanks…
I am sorry for the delayed response, I just wanted to let you know that we are looking into this issue and will release an update as soon as we figure out a best way to solve this problem.
Best Regards,
It's been four months. Do you have any idea how to solve this issue – Thanks
Let be more specific. I am trying to use one of the list trigger items as a button with a phone icon that can be clicked or touched and have the user be able to ring my phone.

I am scratching my head right now….
Very nice theme, but have a few issues i hope you can resolve: 1: In IE and Firefox the icons don't appear. In Chrome they do, but react a bit strange (if you mouseover about for example everything on the page moves a bit and back). 2: If your browser window height is less than 500px it's impossible to close an opened item, because the X for closing is outside the visible area and there isn't a scroll option available. (This is an issue if you don't have the browser full screen or when using browser plugins that occupy the upper area.)
Nice Theme. But the triggers are "wobbely" on Chrome for Mac! Would be Awesome if you could fix that.
Hey! Loving the theme. Just a quick question, in Safari the text which appears inside the photo circle is practically unreadable.
Here's my site if you want to take a look http://djw.net.au/
what options do I have social networks: facebook, instagram, ???
It uses Font Awesome, so you can basically link to anything

Did anyone else know that in the movie Jumanji the father (Mr. Parrish) is the same person as the hunter that Robin Williams character has to confront in the end? I wonder if there was some underlying context as to why that is…Hmmmm
Only one can win.

This is why I am always ok with visiting my parents. It's so nice to just get away, even if it is only 30 minutes away.#relax #getaway

Text I finally read the "Se7en" prequel graphic novel
It was really good. It included many inserts from John Doe's journals , some creepy photos including Sloth's close ups…
The comic is told from John Doe's perspective. Which includes a dip into his past to get a better understanding of his troubled history.
The shitty thing is , this HC was a limited print of 2000 only. No soft covers. Only available in comics and HC , both out of print now. Hard to find. Zenescope , please re-print this into soft cover. Many Se7en fans that deserve a chance to check this shit out.

There's a comic about Se7en and I didn't know about this till just now. WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?

Today, I've been creating a menagarie of error animals. Our 404 is a dog, a 422 (which I've never seen) is a bear, and our 500 is a bird. All based on the site logo. It just seemed like a fun thing to do, that might delight someone - lets hope so.

Working on a 404 error page today. Looking at some examples of pages where people have created funny,useful and witty error pages instead of standard ones.
Think it shows a nice attention to detail, though it's obviously making more work.
Mark came up trumps with some improvments to the TOC ,which i think is a handy page feature that might be useful on others sites that we manage.
Today, I've been mostly making decisions about how to integrate an auto generated Table of Contents into page without out it being too obstrusive. It's a balance making the feature available to those who want it whilst being discreet enough not to bother those who'd rather not see it.
I suppose I'd err on the side of making it discoverable, otherwise no-one is happy.
Also trying to resolve some issues with making sure the rest of the page gets included in the TOC.
Whilst trying to test it on IE I also had to sort out a way to view my hostname via VMWare. Quick call to the helpdesk and a renewal of my DHCP lease seemed to do the trick
enjoyed getting scooter tyre sorted and watching the guy fix it. He was also very friendly and informative.
