Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 16/1/2013 (1678 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
She's had knee surgery, delivered a baby and, until she finally made her return last weekend, hadn't thrown a rock in a competitive curling game in 10 months.
But such is the long shadow that Jennifer Jones casts on women's curling in this province that even against that unlikely backdrop, her fellow competitors have still anointed Jones and her foursome as the team most likely to win next week's Manitoba women's curling championship.
Jones and her team -- third Kaitlyn Lawes, second Jill Officer and lead Dawn Askin -- were announced by Curl Manitoba on Wednesday morning as the top seed for the 2013 Manitoba Scotties Tournament of Hearts, which begins next Wednesday in Stonewall.
The Jones foursome was followed in the seedings -- which are voted upon by the competitors -- by second seed Chelsea Carey, third seed Cathy Overton-Clapham, fourth seed Barb Spencer and fifth seed Janet Harvey.
Jones -- a five-time Manitoba champion, four-time Canadian champion and the 2008 world champion -- played in her first competitive curling event of the 2012-13 season only last weekend, when she skipped her team at the 2013 Continental Cup in Penticton.
Officer said her skip was in mid-season form in B.C. despite the lengthy absence away from the game.
"Jen played great," said Officer. "She had great draw weight. It was awesome to have her back on the ice. It was like she'd never left."
Carey, whose squad has lost the last two provincial finals in dramatic fashion, was asked if recent heartbreaks at the provincials help or hinder her squad heading into next week.
"Probably neither," she said. "At the end of the day, if you're thinking about what happened last year, you're not where you need to be."
"You have to put that all away and not focus on it at all. It's easier said than done, but if I'm thinking about things that happened to me before, there's no way I'm going to play the way I need to play. That's mental toughness, it's being in the zone.
"So the idea is we won't think about it at all, or at least minimize it as much as possible."
Carey was the only one of the top-three-seeded skips to attend Wednesday's news conference, with Jones sending Officer in her place and Overton-Clapham dispatching second Ashley Howard.
The Overton-Clapham foursome have had a terrible cashspiel season.
They rank 63rd on the World Curling Tour money list, winning just $3,000 this winter despite competing in seven events -- including one in Switzerland earlier this month.
Still, Howard is hopeful her team can right the ship next week.
"We've been close in a lot of things, but the results just haven't come," said Howard. "We'll just hang with it and maybe the provincials will be where we break through."
In case you're wondering, Howard's famous father -- 2006 Olympic gold medallist and current TSN analyst Russ Howard -- will be in Stonewall for the duration next week watching his daughter's team.
And then there's a team like Harvey's, which doesn't curl nearly as much on the WCT as Jones, Carey and Overton-Clapham does, and yet still has the capacity to win, as evidenced by their runner-up performance in 2010.
"We obviously don't put as much time into the game as the other teams," said Harvey. "But we do make sure we play enough when we set our schedule at the start of the year. And then we try to peak at this time of the year."
The Scotties will be held Jan. 23-27 in Stonewall, with the winner advancing to represent Manitoba at the Canadian Womens Curling Championship next month in Kingston, Ont.
The final three playoff draws of the event will also be broadcast live by Sportsnet, with announcer Roger Millions and 1998 Olympic gold medallist Joan McCusker handling the play-by-play and analysis, respectively.

Curl Manitoba announced the seedings and draw on Wednesday morning for next week's Manitoba women's curling championship. Here's a snapshot of the top five seeds:
1. Jennifer Jones
The skip has played in just one event this season after taking the winter off to have a baby and recuperate from knee surgery. Still, it's hard to not to love the chances of a five-time Manitoba champion and four-time Canadian champion.
2. Chelsea Carey
Runner-up in each of the last two Manitoba women's curling championships, she and her team have paid their dues and seem destined to finally break through -- or go crazy trying.
3. Cathy Overton-Clapham
A living curling icon, she and her team have struggled mightily to find any traction on the cashspiel circuit this winter. The flip side is Overton-Clapham has always saved her very best for playdowns season anyway.
4. Barb Spencer
A Manitoba curling Hall of Famer and three-time provincial women's champion, Spencer made it all the way to the semifinals of last year's provincials before finally bowing out.
5. Janet Harvey
This same squad -- third Cherie-Ann Loder, second Kristin Loder and lead Carey Kirby -- lost the 2010 provincial women's final to Jill Thurston. Harvey, Cherie-Ann Loder and Kirby are also the 2006 Manitoba women's champions.

FedEx needed that development speed when its main rival, UPS, launched a new service, called My Choice, in October 2011 to let package recipients redirect their packages en route. Creating such a service is a big challenge for package-delivery companies because most of the information they have and the services they provide focus on the shipper, not the receiver. FedEx launched a competing service this quarter called Delivery Manager. "We had to step on the gas, no doubt," Carter said. Delivery Manager would've been almost impossible to do without a single address look-up service, he said.
Another fundamental change at FedEx IT is its move to a private cloud architecture for its data centers. A private cloud in FedEx terms means that all its servers, storage and networking configurations are designed for what Carter calls "general-purpose computing," so that they can run any application workload rather than be dedicated to one function.
FedEx began this private cloud effort after the IT organization mapped out the company's future data center needs several years ago, and the board of directors balked at the capital cost. Using a private cloud architecture instead, FedEx built a data center in Colorado Springs, Colo., that consumes about one-third the power as was originally planned, in about one-fifth the physical size.
Before moving an application into the Colorado data center, which opened in early 2011, the applications were rewritten to run on a common software stack to allow for workload shifting. While some of the software used to run FedEx's data center continues to be proprietary, "we will be OpenStack compliant in a short period of time," Humphries said, referring to the open-source private cloud platform.
The Colorado data center is located at an elevation of 6,000 feet, letting FedEx cool the building using the outside air instead of costly air conditioning. The design is modeled on the ultra-efficient, standards-based data centers that Internet giants such as Amazon.com, Facebook and Google have built. And that infrastructure will let FedEx move some computing capacity to public cloud services from the likes of Amazon, Rackspace and Verizon in the not-too-distant future. FedEx is set to convert a data center based on the same private cloud architecture near its Memphis headquarters.
FedEx faces significant risks from the scale of its change. Carter knows he's losing important technology expertise by cutting staff, but he said he's convinced that the voluntary, staged buyout will help transfer that expertise gracefully to third-party service providers.
While Carter downplays any negative impact from the transition, he doesn't downplay the scale of the change the FedEx IT leadership team is trying to pull off. Said Carter: "People, organization, processes, technology, platforms -- everything that we were doing is being reset."
Editor's Note: After further discussions with FedEx CIO Rob Carter, the editors made a few minor changes to the headline and story.

While watching a recent episode of America's Test Kitchen I frantically tried to jot down the recipe for "steak with spicy chipotle rub", or something like that. I was supposed to use an inch-thick piece of sirloin but since I had a round steak about half that thick I figured it was worth a shot, so I scored the sides and gave it a light salting.
The next step was to mix together some tomato paste, soy sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder and smear it on the beef.
Then a spice rub went on top of the paste. The only dried chiles I could find in the store were japones, which are Japanese and similar to chiles de arbol, so I added a little ancho chile powder to the peppers and spices before toasting. In hindsight it would've been better to add the powder toward the end of the toasting process, but I wound up with a mixture that smelled strongly of cumin and had coffee-like notes. Since I don't have a mortar and pestle (molcajete) I put everything in a plastic bag and beat the bejesus out of it with a hammer.
I tried to sear the steak on both sides enough to set the spices but not overcook the meat, and it actually turned out OK. I think the japones chiles added more heat than the original recipe called for as my lips and tongue were tingling pretty good, but overall it wasn't too bad. The cumin flavor was pretty strong so if I was to make it again I might use a little less than what's called far.
The only problem was that I wound up with a lot of leftover meat because I was cooking for one...
...so the next night I used some of it for tacos. I took 4 tortillas and topped them with steak, shredded Colby cheese, and some green taco sauce before folding them over and putting them over an indirect fire. I used a grill weight to keep everything together and get some decent grill marks.
I was really happy with how the tacos/quesadillas turned out. I buttered the tortillas and I think that helped them brown a little bit, and the indirect heat allowed everything to get throughly warm without burning. The iron grate added some nice marks and the cheese did a nice job of offsetting the heat of the steak.

SAINT LEO, Fla. – After a win last night that gave coach John Conway his 300th win, the Lions softball program (34-14, 14-4 SSC) collected another two wins against the visiting Eckerd Tritons, Saturday afternoon from University Stadium. In the two senior day wins, the Lions also broke Saint Leo's all time single season steals record.
It was an offensively eventful day for the Saint Leo softball team, as the Lions plated a total of 15 runs, while allowing the Eckerd Tritons to score just five.
The first game of the Sunshine State Conference doubleheader featured a nine hit game by the Lions. While the Tritons collected seven hits, RBI singles and doubles by the Lions' Chelsey Steedley, Sarah Steiner, and Torrie Weindorf propelled Saint Leo to a 6-5 win over Eckerd.
Much unlike the first game of the afternoon, the Lions' second game featured an outstanding 9-0 run-rule after just four and one half innings of work. Nearly every Saint Leo hitter collected a hit in the effort, with senior Rachelle Gremo smashing a double and junior Sarah Steiner sending a two-run homerun over the centerfield fence.
On the afternoon, the Lions' offense collected 20 hits, five stolen bases, and nine walks. The five stolen bases improved Saint Leo's single season total to 134, knocking out the previous record of 131.
As a Saint Leo defense, each pitcher received time on the mound. Senior Megan Still (5.2 IP) got the start for the Lions in the first game, before Sarah Steiner (0.1), Ashley Ehlers (0.1) and Alana Tabel (0.2) all made relief appearances. Ehlers took home the win in the effort, with Tabel collecting her third save of the season. In the second contest of the afternoon, Steiner took the mound, tossing 4 innings before Tabel came in for the top of the fifth. As a pitching staff, the Lions struck out four batters on the day, walking five and allowing 10 Eckerd hits.
Saint Leo will return to action on Friday, Apr. 19 when they travel to Boca Raton to take on the Lynn University Fighting Knights. The SSC contest is set to begin at 1 p.m.

MORRIS dancers aged from two to over 50 took part in a fancy dress sponsored walk to raise cash for a new bus.
More than 20 members of the Darwen Morris Dancers troupe trudged from Hoghton Tower to the Anchor pub in Blackburn Road for the fundraiser on Sunday.
The six-mile walk will help pay for a new bus to take dancers to competitions and events.
One of the organisers, Carley Billington, said £150 was raised from bucket collections on the day, with hundreds more expected from sponsorships.
Mother-of-two Miss Billington, whose six-year-old daughter Tamara took part in the event, said: "It was a really good day.
"All the children were really well behaved and the little ones didn't complain once. We had quite a lot of people stopping to ask what we were doing and putting money in the buckets and cars beeping their horns at us."
Two-year-old Mitzy Dewhurst was the youngest person taking part on the day, trotting alongside her mum, Sabrina.
Miss Billington added: "We would like to thank Keith from Rigby's Coaches, who gave us free transport from Darwen to Hoghton Tower to start the event."
Darwen Morris Dancers is run by Sandra Jackson and is open to people of all ages.
Children up to the age of five train on Wednesdays from 6pm to 7pm at Crown Paints Sports and Social Club in Anchor Lane. Entry costs 50p.
All other age groups meet at Lower Chapel church in Chapels with six to 11-year-olds on Wednesday from 6pm to 7pm, 12 to 16-year-olds on Tuesdays from 6.30pm to 8pm and 17-plus on Tuesdays from 7.30pm to 9pm.

Over 8 percent (2.96 million acres) of Iowa is covered by trees and forests. Our forests have significant impacts on our agricultural-based economy, protection of our drinking water supply, critical for wildlife habitat and overall enjoyment of the place that we call Iowa. Wood industries employ over 7,000 Iowans, producing lumber and high quality wood products. Trees in our small and large communities, our "urban forests," increase property values and conserve cooling and heating energy. Our forests are vital to our state's future.
Because our forest resources are valuable to the citizens of Iowa, the Bureau of Forestry began monitoring forest and tree health conditions in the late 1970's. This monitoring effort today is used to determine overall forest and tree health conditions, the status of natural and exotic insect, disease, and invasive species problems, and to provide up-to-date information for private and public managers to aid in the sustained management of Iowa's forest resources.
Cooperative monitoring efforts with Iowa State University, Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship (IDALS), USDA Forest Service (USFS), USDA Plant Protection Quarantine (PPQ), municipal foresters, and private land owners encourages efficient monitoring efforts. In addition, cooperation fosters improved communications to professionals and others on Iowa's forest resource management issues.
Forest Health Threats
Iowa Department of Natural Resources Forester's conduct surveys, evaluations, and monitor for forest insects, forest diseases, invasive plants, and forest management practices. This is done to determine the status, changes, and trends in forest health conditions. The Forestry Bureau utilizes the data from ground surveys, aerial surveys, and other data sources to develop a comprehensive management approach to address forest health issues that affect the sustainability of Iowa's forest ecosystems. The findings are compiled into a Forest Health Highlights for each year and can be found below.

LAKELAND, Fla. (February 22, 2012)- The Rollins men's lacrosse team dropped a tough decision against Florida Southern, Wednesday night, 14-8. The Tars fall to 0-3 on the season with all three losses coming on the road. Rollins will look to ignite their season with their home opener this weekend.
The offense started out slow on both sides with each team netting one goal in the opening 15 minutes. Weather was a factor with rain falling creating difficult conditions for both sides.
The Mocs scored five times in the second period, while the Tars tallied two goals in the 15 minutes prior to halftime. Florida Southern hit the break with a 6-3 lead, which proved to be too much for the Tars to overcome.
The final two periods of the game would see the Tars outscored by a total of three goals and combined with a slow start, led to the final score of 14-8.
Rollins used five different players that collected goals with Taylor White, Oliver Moore and Connor Galvin collecting two goals apiece. Will Diamond and Stephen DeFlumeri also notched a goal apiece, while Peter Harvey, John Herbert, Chuck Magid and White notched assists.
Harvey again enjoyed a successful night in the faceoff department, tallying 12 wins in 18 attempts to help the Tars control possession.
Andrew Sheerin was tested early and often, mustering 10 saves on the night and was instrumental in keeping the Tars within striking distance.
Rollins will head home for their home opener when they welcome Florida Tech on Saturday at 1 p.m.

Miniaturization and Integration of Devices through Lithography
Axel Scherer, Distinguished Visiting Professor, Thayer School of Engineering
Friday, October 14, 2011, 3:30pm
Spanos Auditorium
This seminar is part of the Jones Seminars on Science, Technology, and Society series
Over the past decades, lithography and high-resolution pattern transfer have enabled the fabrication of nanostructures with lateral sizes of 10nm and below. These capabilities, together with atomic thickness accuracy offered by modern crystal growth, have resulted in the definition of designed nanostructures. More recently, the challenge has been to integrate such nanostructures into functional devices, and to take advantage of the opportunities of miniaturization. For example, commercially available silicon transistors are now constructed with ~30nm features, lithographically aligned with great precision and integrated in complex chips that are manufactured on 300mm wafers. In this presentation, the possibility of fabricating even smaller transistors with ~3nm lateral dimensions will be described. In such nanostructures, both device and material properties can be controlled through geometry rather than composition.
Another exciting opportunity derived from fabricating devices lithographically arises from the possibility to accurately align devices with different functions to one another. This capability results in integrated systems of nanoscale devices, in which electronics can be combined with optics, fluidics or magnetics on monolithic chips. We will show how integrated microsystems can form the basis of new functionality and reduce the cost or complexity of biomedical, telecommunications and chemical sensing chips. For example, we have developed microfluidic chips in which electronic signals can control picoliter volumes of solutions, and which can be integrated with ion-sensitive transistors, capacitors, inductors, magnets and even fluorescent detectors to measure local chemistry. Such systems can now be made inexpensively with the promise of providing molecular pathology to underserved populations in the world. Another interesting opportunity of miniaturization of system is focused on compact implantable systems, powered and communicating without wires. Wireless probes that measure chemistry changes of voltages may serve as health monitors, identify the onset or progression of diseases, and even hold the promise of understanding complex metabolic functions.

Thank you in advance.
I can be the reason. It's not hard to stop this sort of thing, though. For example, you can set a min-width on the

Hi ralph, thank you for the reply,you mean that if we put min-width to ul this will not be destroy or fallen down?
Possibly. Do you have an example?

That menu is no use though for the reasons outlined in this thread and when the dropdown drops down it will push the content below it down and up the page like a yo yo
I set to this
ul.nav{ min-width: 400px;}
please correct me if i am wrong....It's working i tried in FF and chrome.
Hi paul,..i have some question...as i have understand when we make a wrapper we should put min-width? in order of the the some floated elements will not be destroy inside in this wrapper?
by the way i forgot to ask when we put multiple classes in the element we use like this

but how can i put multiple id's in one div?...
Yes min-width 400px will work as long as that is wider than the minmum width of that nav. You have set the lists to min-width: 8em so you should have set your min-width in em to match the total number of list elements.
In a dropdown its much easier to work with fixed widths and you can avoid issues like the menu dropping.
You can't do that as ids are unique and there can only be one id per element and unique to that page. An id is a unique reference to that specific element and so cannot have any other ids on it. It would be like putting the number 21 and 72 on your front door - no one would know what's right.
Thank you so much i learned a lot with you.

Fresh Mayport Jumbo Shrimp (peeled & deveined)
Thinly sliced Prosciutto as needed to wrap around shrimp
Extra Virgin Olive Oil & Whole Butter to pan fry the Shrimp
Sambuca Liquor
Whole Sweet Cream Butter
Fennel Syrup: We make this by poaching julienne fennel in 2 parts sugar & 1 part water, then strain out the fennel and continue cooking liquid until a syrup forms.
For seasoning I use a mixture of coriander, rosemary, cayenne, sea salt & cracked black pepper.
Start by wrapping the shrimp with a strip of prosciutto.
Sauté the wrapped shrimp in butter & olive oil, deglaze the pan with Sambuca, then add fennel syrup and whole sweet cream butter and cook until butter is melted and sauce forms.

VILLANOVA, Pa. - The result was eerily familiar for Penn in a Philadelphia Soccer Six matchup with Villanova on Tuesday as a late second-half run from the Wildcats spelled defeat in a 2-1 loss for the Quakers on the Main Line.
As happened in 2012, Penn squandered an early lead as the Wildcats clawed back into the match with two late goals to send the Quakers to their fourth consecutive loss.
Freshman Max Kroschwitz scored the first two goals of his career 4:24 apart in the 76' and 80' minutes to provide all the scoring for the Wildcats and erase a Penn lead which had been built midway through the first quarter.
Penn would control the early moments of the match, sending the first five shots of the afternoon towards Villanova's goal. Stephen Baker had the best chances of the early happenings, sending two successive shots in a span of six seconds in the 3'. His first look was blocked by a defender before his second chance was saved by Andrew Weakly.
Holding an early 9-2 advantage in shots, Duke Lacroix made Penn's tenth attempt count as he was the beneficiary of a strong run down the left side and eluded Villanova defenders before serving a low cross to the box which Duke Lacroix got a boot on for his second goal of the season in the 30'. The Quakers had a quick opportunity to add a second goal, but Alec Neumann was just wide on a shot under a minute later.
Early in the second half, Penn brought pressure to hunt the second goal. The Red and Blue earned two quick corners in the 47', Austin Kinn getting a head on a Baker serve which was denied only by a Weakly save.
In the 71', Lacroix had a chance to add to his goal total, getting a shot off following an Alex Reddy corner kick, but again Weakly was game and ready for the save. Just over five minutes later, Dylan Renna would maneuver down the right flank and send a ball to the penalty area where Max Kroschwitz would redirect it in to knot the match, 1-1.
Little less than five minutes later, Villanova took the lead on Kroschwitz's second of the game. After the Quakers couldn't capitalize on a yellow card to 'Nova and the ensuing free kick, Sean Sheridan launched a ball to the box which was won by Kroschwitz and sent to the right post for the difference maker.
Sam Hayward had a chance to tie the match for Penn in the 86', finding space and getting one last quality shot on goal for the Quakers, but Weakly was ready and made his ninth save of the match.
Penn had the edge in shots, 23-10, and had 10 shots on goal to eight for the Wildcats.
Baker took six of Penn's shots, with just one reaching goal. Lacroix and Louis Schott each had two shots on goal.
Tyler Kinn made six saves, tying his career high.
The Red and Blue return to Rhodes Field on Friday to take on Florida Gulf Coast in the first-ever meeting between the two schools at 7 p.m.

About the Author
People often ask me why I decided to become a writer, and my answer is simple: I became a writer because I had to do something with all the voices in my head, or I'd go crazy. Fiction writing seemed the most logical—and healthy—outlet for these voices.
What happens is this: I'll be walking along the street in New York City, where I live, and I will see something that piques my interest—for instance, a sign for the annual Mermaid Parade in Brooklyn. All of a sudden, there's a fourteen-year-old girl inside my head begging, "I wanna go! I wanna go!" She'll literally shout ideas and thoughts through my brain until not only do I have to go the Mermaid Parade, but I also have to investigate her story. Who is she, exactly? Where does she live? Who are her family? Why does she want to go to the Mermaid Parade so badly? Trying to figure her out can also cause me to almost be hit by the many people and buses whose paths I cross, because I am too busy transcribing her voice from my head into my iPhone to remember when I finally sit down to write her story that I become neglectful about watching where I'm going. Oops. Working on that.
A lot of people assume that the writer's life is very glamorous, and I'm not going to lie to you. It is. I have two cats, named Bunk and McNulty, who wake me up early in the morning to be fed and played with. It turns out they also like their thoughts and feelings to be present in my books, so my working day begins immediately with some cozy fur-rubbing to ignite it. There's no dress code for my job, so I often spend the whole day wearing jammies. I have no set lunch hour, so if I want to nibble M&Ms at my desk all day, who's to say I can't? And hey, if no one's around my desk, why not blast music loudly while working, too? So there you have it, the essence of my writer's day: characters' (human and feline) voices in my head demanding their stories be told, while I wear PJs and eat M&Ms, to the beat of very blasted music.
The best part of my job? Readers like you, when I get to meet them and hear how the voices inside my head that got turned into stories that became books that someone actually read . . . and related to! In my opinion, that right there is the real glamour of my job. Though the kitties and pajamas and candy and tunes aren't so bad, either. Just sayin'.

FINAL: Saint Leo 4, Rollins 0 – (Winter Park, Fla. – Alfond Stadium)
SAINT LEO STARTERS: Newcomb (CF), Vitale (3B), Twitty (RF), Moses (LF), Revell (1B), Brnovich (DH), Rawdow (2B), Torres (C), Perez (SS), Dunnigan (P)
ROLLINS STARTERS: Persky (CF), Curson (RF), Lattanzi (1B), Hendricks (DH), Betcherman (2B), Kelly (3B), Mayfield (LF), Rivera (C), Okazaki (SS), Figliolia (P)
AT A GLANCE: Saint Leo starting pitcher Michael Dunnigan (6-0) tossed a complete-game shutout to lead the Lions to a 4-0 win over Rollins College. The Saint Leo (29-12, 9-7 SSC) offense was able to get just enough going to get Dunnigan some run support en route to the win.
- Saint Leo threatened in the second, getting its first two runners on base after a base hit from Ryan Brnovich and a walk by Frank Rawdow. Then with a 1-1 count to Daniel Torres, the runners took off and Torres lined one back right at the pitcher, Figliolia, who caught the ball, spun and threw to second to start off the 1-6-3 triple play.
- The Lions took a 1-0 lead in the fifth inning when Brnovich singled to start the inning and eventually came home on passed ball from the Tars' catcher Yuta Okazaki.
- The Lions pushed another run across the board in the top of the sixth to make it a 2-0 game. The inning was started with back to back singles from Chris Newcomb and Dillon Vitale. With men on second and third, Twitty hit a bounding ball to short that scored Newcomb from the third.
- Two huge insurance runs were scored in the top of the eighth after Vitale led off the inning being hit by a pitch. Vitale would score on an RBI double from Twitty, and Twitty would come home the next play on an RBI single from Taed Moses.
- Dunnigan tossed nine innings of scoreless baseball, earning his sixth win of the season. The freshman right-hander allowed just four hits while striking out two Tars batters.
- Moses led the Lions' offensive effort—going 3-for-3 at the plate with an RBI.
- Brnovich went 2-for-4 at the plate.
- Bringing home two runs on the afternoon was Twitty, going 1-for-3.
- Finishing the day 2-for-5 was the centerfielder Newcomb.
With everything being pushed back a day because of rain, the final two games of the series will be played tomorrow with a doubleheader beginning at 11:00 a.m.

Is the iPod Touch 5G coming with a wall charger?
Not sure if I'm a fan of the "iPhone" on the back kind of looks like the skype logo.
This phone is going to suck. No one realizes it now but once it's out for a little they will. Trust me. I thought it was cool that droid had different size screens but it sucked because the apps only worked with certain screen sizes and that's exactly how it'll be for iPhones soon. Just you iPhone 5 users watch and be "amazed" when apps look terrible on it this Friday.
Well the App Store app devs seem to keep up with iOS updates pretty well. I'd imagine they'd do well to keep up with the changes in the screen size. A lot of apps were updated wonderfully when the retina devices came out. Some devs don't update their apps, sure, but there are more that do than don't.
I don't know about Android, but I do know many of my apps I used to use on my iPhone 3G were updated for retina display when I got my iPhone 4. Some took longer than others but it was worked out.

Delving into jQuery Mobile: Part 2
In my previous post we discussed how to create a couple of simple pages and how to create a list. In this post I want to discuss lists in more detail. Yes I know it doesn't sound too interesting but you will be surprised at what you can do with lists in jQuery Mobile.
There are a number of different list styles that you can create using jQuery Mobile. All off them are very simple to implement and can really impact the UI of your application.

Bradley Cooper to Star as Lance Armstrong for J.J. Abrams?
It hasn't taken long for the Lance Armstrong story to become the hottest new biopic in town. Shortly after the cyclist confessed to doping on Oprah, J.J. Abrams' Bad Robot snatched up the rights to an upcoming book about Armstrong. And everybody wants to be in the J.J. Abrams business right now.
Turns out a certain handsome, Oscar-nominated actor has aggressively thrown his hat into the ring to portray the embattled athlete: None other than Bradley Cooper. But how close is he to securing the part?

Nina Ricci Fall 2014
Paris might be the home of Nina Ricci, but spiritually, this coming fall at least, the house resides on the other side of the Atlantic, in Houston. Peter Copping, the extremely gifted creative director of Nina Ricci, visited the Texan city on business, and fell in love with the eclectic interiors couturier Charles James created for art collector and philanthropist Dominique de Menil's home, designed by Philip Johnson in 1950. To someone like Copping, an interiors devotee, it was the starting point that led him to think about the relationship between fashion and the home. Also pinned onto his mental mood board: the etiolated, stylized lines of flowers from Art Nouveau, in particular the iris; the stark, precise lines of ultraminimalist settings; and the opulence and grandeur of the decorating of la comtesse Jacqueline de Ribes. It was, Copping said simply, all about being "chez elle."
It always goes back to the home for Copping, who has an incredible gift at—and lightness of touch with—clothes that feel intimate and personal, and somehow also makes them feel grounded in women's everyday lives; few other designers this season have so unwaveringly, or successfully, flipped between the need for fantasy and the need for reality. And none more so than Copping with his lovely fall 2014 show, which conjured up the boudoir charm he's made such a part of Ricci—the fragility of the lace, the quiver of satin, the sighing lushness of velvet—allied this time round to a more urban, graphic look. Copping opened with a series of tailoring worked in a blanketlike cashmere, such as an enveloping gray coat with a controlled sense of volume wrapped around a python-print satin dress, starting high on the neck and fluttering to a finish above the knees.
The contrast Copping set from the start—streamlined tailored modernity balanced by a sensual, silken notion of dressing—only got stronger. There were plenty of standouts: silk jacquard blouses finely traced with those jugendstil florals; coats curved closed to the body and trimmed with fur both real and fake; roll-neck sweaters—come next fall, get ready, you're never going to see your neck naked—tucked into short leather skirts or pajama pants, knit at the front, silk at the back. And to close, there were evening looks galore, one more gorgeous than the last, from a super sexy dress constructed out of panels of brocade and guipure lace, worn with a faille-and-fur bomber jacket, to a tee and skirt in black and sapphire blue velvet and lace, to a trio of lace gowns, the closing look also shimmering with intricately placed sequined leaves.

Cooler Master Centurion 5: Simplicity Meets Functionalityby Purav Sanghani on 9/1/2004 12:05 AM EST

Macattak1 - Friday, September 21, 2007 - linkWent to put in a 4th HD. Does not accepts. Case only comes with 3 HD slides mounts or what ever they are called.
So now I have to email CM and hope they respond and I don't find out that I have to pay $10 s/h and $5 per or something like that.
Peace and Blessings Reply
serval - Thursday, February 24, 2005 - linkThanks for the review, I'm curious how this compares with the Caviler 3 since they are about the same price at SVC right now (under $60 shipped w/o power supply)?
Any contrasting information or thoughts? Reply
boogietronix - Wednesday, October 06, 2004 - linkI just bought this case and couldn't be happier... Isn't it funny how personal opinion differs on cosmetics because this case was won hands down for me. (I have the black/silver model with perspex window).
My only gripe is with the front fan as it runs a little loud, though I replaced it with the CoolerMaster Ultra when I ditched my P4-3.0 hetsink/fan combo for a Zalman 7000B-AlC. (On another note, the supplied power source is very quiet for a case priced in this range, and I haven't had the need to change it). Even though the drive bay clamps do look a little weak they are very sturdy when pushed into place and I haven't had any probs when swapping my drives around.
If you're thinking about buying this case and have any questions or want to know my specs for comparrison please feel free to email.

Dantzig - Sunday, September 05, 2004 - linkFinally, a case that doesn't look like a toy. Thank you! Reply
PuravSanghani - Thursday, September 02, 2004 - linkAnnoyedGrunt: Good point. The I/O ports all connect directly to the motherboard. We have seen many instances where the FireWire port would pass out through the back and attach to an external port but in this case all ports attach to a capable motherboard.
We will try to mention this in future reviews. Reply
AnnoyedGrunt - Thursday, September 02, 2004 - linkI have a few suggestions to add to the article:
1. Please mention exactly how the front ports are attached to their repsective components - For example, do the cables attach to headers on the MoBo, or do they use pass through cables and plug into the ports on the back of the MoBo?
2. The PCI slot covers are knock offs, instead of separate pieces, and cannot be replaced easily once they are removed (as far as I can see). I think this should be mentioned as a negative if it is indeed true.
3. The HDD clamping system is nice, but it would be even nicer (IMO) to use rubber isolators on the drive. I think you should mention that as well.
I am most curious about how those I/O cables attach to the MoBo, so if you could answer that I'd appreciate it.
BTW, I think this case looks very nice.

SilthDraeth - Wednesday, September 01, 2004 - linkAdul I guess he might of thought that Cooler Master Centurion 5 was the entire name of the case, and didn't realize that Cooler Master is a company.
Adul - Wednesday, September 01, 2004 - linkcase is made by cooler master. Did you miss that? Reply
Mday - Wednesday, September 01, 2004 - linkOne of my primary concerns with these reviews stil remains. Though the quality appears to be improving. Probably due to editor involvement. Anwyay, here's the concern: no where in the article did it mention who actually made this case, the fan or the power supply. Reply
PuravSanghani - Wednesday, September 01, 2004 - linkLocutusX: That is correct, in place of the NorthBridge results for the Centurion we have entered our results for the single nForce chip and left the Southbridge results for the previously benchmarked cases. This change results from the switchup of our testbed motherboard. Reply
LocutusX - Wednesday, September 01, 2004 - linkWhat are you referring to when you listed South Bridge temps? I believe the NF3-250 chipset doesn`t have a South Bridge.
Phiro - Wednesday, September 01, 2004 - linkHey now, I liked that Spider man case! Reply
ggnl - Wednesday, September 01, 2004 - link"Some of these had clean, elegant designs that were extremely attractive, while a handful of others were designed with themes that were extremely unattractive and did not appeal to AnandTech readers at all.
From the comments posted, we came to the conclusion that the majority of our readers, instead of having a fancy-looking product lacking the features that they need, would rather have a case with a very simple look and with only those certain features that they can't do without during their regular use."
You win today's Stating the Obvious Award. Congrats!
In any case, thanks for listening to your readers. We very much appreciate the non-butt-ugly case reviews. Reply
Deinonych - Wednesday, September 01, 2004 - linkThat case is available in blue and red in addition to the silver (I like the blue, personally). In addition to the toolless drive bays, I like the fact that it's quiet. Add a low-noise 80mm fan like the Nexus (17.6 dB) or Papst (12 dB) and the noise levels would drop even more. Reply
goku21 - Wednesday, September 01, 2004 - linkNot a fan of this case. I do like the meshgrill in the front, but the silver added into it turns me off. I like my case to be a single color.
The other thing I didn't like about this case is that it's a mid-tower case.
On the plus side though, the tool less drive bay features are cool. Reply
PuravSanghani - Wednesday, September 01, 2004 - linkDegrador: The order of those specs were wrong. The 120mm is rated at 13dBA and their 80mm is actually rated at 25dBA. This has been fixed in the article. Thanks for pointing that out. :) Reply
SilthDraeth - Wednesday, September 01, 2004 - linkI know another site has reviewed the Cooler Master Praetorian, but I would like Anantech to review it. I like the look of it better than the Lian Li cases,and from everything I have read/heard it is very sturdy, and an exceptional case, as long as you replace the stock fans.
Can you try to get a Praetorian for review? Reply
mongoosesRawesome - Wednesday, September 01, 2004 - linkFor nearly the same price, you can get the aluminum Cooler Master Praetorian (w/o the 350 watt power supply). Why would anyone get the Centurion 5? Reply
Degrador - Wednesday, September 01, 2004 - linkUmm... An 80mm fan rated at 13dB?? Might wanna change that to 33dB (I assume) - half way down page 4... Reply

Hey everyone, I'm back in the States once again. Not going to lie to you all; it's weird being back. I can understand everyone's conversations around me because they're speaking English, rather than Spanish. My natural instinct now is to throw away toilet paper, rather than flush it down the toilet. I catch myself saying little phrases of Spanish to my family; and then they give me that face of confusion, and I realize they don't understand me. I find myself thinking of the babies' schedules and what they would be doing right now.
For instance right now as I'm typing this, all the babies' are sleeping, and the staff is gathering in the play pen for staff devotion time. It's strange for my schedule not to revolve around what the babies' schedules are. It's so hard being away and not being involved with those precious little lives anymore. My heart broke in a million pieces when I had to say good-bye to them. It's still breaking even now. I miss the babies, the other interns and all of the staff at Grace Babies Home.
Don't get me wrong, I love being home. I love spending time with my family. Not so much a fan of the humidity, but hey, that's Illinois summers for you. Little Tiskilwa, Illinois will always have a place in my heart. It's where I grew up, where a lot of my memories are, where my family and church family are. The people here have seen me grow from a little girl to an awkward junior-higher to the young woman who I am today. They have been so supportive of where ever God leads me and have always been such an encouragement to me to no matter the situation. I love the people here so much.
But then there is my Michigan family. All of the people I have meet because of going to Cornerstone. While I haven't known these people for very long compared to the people from back home, they all hold a special place in my heart. They have helped me grow in so many ways I can't even begin to express how thankful I am for all of them. The friends I have made there are going to be friends I have for a life time. We have laughed together, studied together, done crazy things together, cried together, studied some more, and prayed together. Because of them I have grown as a person and in my faith. I'm so excited to move back to Michigan and get to see everyone there. It's crazy to think that it's my last year of school forever.
They say home is where your heart is. Well what are you supposed to do when your heart is in three different places? Yesterday I was having some quiet time, just crying out to the Lord about all of my different emotions that I'm going through and then I came across this verse.
"I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you." -Isaiah 46:4b
God has my back, even though I am going through so many different emotions being back. He knows me, He knows better than anyone else. Even better than I know myself. He put these passions in my heart. He knew I would go to Mexico before I was even born. He knew the struggles I would be going through when I came back. He knew because He made me.
So through this transition time that I'm going through right now, He's going to carry me through every step. He will sustain me when all I feel like doing is curling up in ball and crying. He is my strength. He is my God. How incredible is He!?
So even though it's rough right now and with every little fiber in me all I want to do is hop on a plane and go back to Mexico right now, God has something else planned. And who knows ... maybe someday He will call me back to Mexico (I really, really, really hope He does). But for now I need to be here. Even though it hurts not being at GBH, This is where I need to be now. And He's going to lead me through every little step, and I just need to remember that.

Almost 75% of Americans don't want mobile payment systems
0. phoneArena posted on 02 May 2012, 15:54
Nearly every major player in the mobile space is pushing to be number one in mobile payments, but it turns out that no one bothered to check with consumers to make sure they actually want mobile payment systems...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here
1. Phoneguy007 (Posts: 218; Member since: 02 Jun 2011)
Lets see how this plays out!
2. Alantef (Posts: 288; Member since: 14 Sep 2011)
guess im in the 25%
3. bella92108 (Posts: 8; Member since: 06 Apr 2012)
I'm dubious as to the study participants. 75% not wanting something that really doesn't exist leads me to question how they conducted the survey. The difference between "would you favor mobile payments using your phone to turn over financial information to a merchant?" would garner negative answers, but if you asked "If you could use your phone to pay for something instead of using your credit or debit card, would you like that?" of course everyone is going to say yes. Carrying cards, especially with magnetic strips, is a thing of the past. Conservative America is the only country in the world afraid of microchips, and yet we have one of the highest credit fraud instances in the world. It's time to get into the new millennium, I know, 12 years late is better than never.
15. 14545 (Posts: 1676; Member since: 22 Nov 2011)
Exactly. It seems to me you have more control over fraud with this than you're typical credit cards. And why was this downranked?
20. ardent1 (Posts: 2000; Member since: 16 Apr 2011)
bella92108 stated: "we have one of the highest credit fraud instances in the world" -- care to back that claim up with real data. Are you stating instances based on absolute dollars, on a per capital basis, etc? Or, are you just making an opinion without hard facts??
If the study has 1,200 participants and assuming these people were chosen at random, then you have statistically significant results.
In the abstract (or summary), the authors stated: "We explain some advantages of mobile payment systems, some challenges to their adoption in the United States, and then turn to our main finding: Americans overwhelming reject mobile payment systems that track their movements or share identification information with retailers."
The main resistance is due to tracking concerns as opposed to being a credit card.

Dude Japan has been using mobile paymen for a while now . Even some of their feature phones have this feature . If you ever traveled to Japan you will find that feature very convenient ! How doesnt leave his house without carrying mobile phone ? And I can pay with just a single tap

Isn't a credit card already a mobile payment system, and doesn't the merchant already identify the location, date and time of my purchase and also have access to my personal information?
Aren't there something like 6 million Exxon Mobil SpeedPass customers out there for like a decade now? And you can only buy stuff at ONE gas station with it!
I suspect a vendor-agnostic version would take off like wildfire. From a customer perspective; I already give that info to a credit card company that I wouldn't trust with dirty diaper if I didn't need access to good financing rates.
I think the biggest barrier to adoption will be that the credit card companies want 3%+ off the top of every swipe, and so businesses are going to tell them to take their machines and shove it. I think an industry standard technology for it would be ideal, so a business could require that you use a checking account for payment, but still get the convenience of the swipe/enter pin.
What kind of internet luddites did this survey manage to sample?

Lol most americans are stupid though. I'm sure most people would want 4g yet people continue to buy an iphone.

And somehow another troll tries to involve Apple when it had nothing to do with the article.
18. jcpwn2004 (Posts: 314; Member since: 18 Jan 2012)
actually it has everything to do with the article. I was illustrating the point that most americans are stupid, hence a survey saying 75% of americans don't want mobile payment is worthless. Let it sink in that thick skull apple troll

"that most americans are stupid"
jcpwn2004 describing him/herself.
9. Lucas777 (Posts: 2137; Member since: 06 Jan 2011)
most americans are not stupid... they might be lazy and fat but i dont think we are a "stupid" nation...
and 4g is not a determining factor for many people... many markets do not even include 4g, and anyone who has an iphone wants it for other purposes [seems obvious but oh well]...
12. remixfa (Posts: 14605; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
I wish I could agree with you. as a country we are falling far behind other. nations in education... a large part of the culture is embracing ignorance and violence as a way of life and growing. today's 20 something's are already the first generation in our history to be less educated than their parents at the same age.
super high end 4g is not the biggest thing for me. ill happily take a 3g sgs3 if it has everything else I want
put me in the 75% that isn't excited for NFC. I'm not rushing into any new tech that might not be 100% and leave my financials exposed.

wasn't saying that people are stupid that don't want mobile payment, just that in general most americans have no clue when it comes to tech so this survey is kinda worthless.
25. Lucas777 (Posts: 2137; Member since: 06 Jan 2011)
i agree we are not as smart as we could be, but i dont think its "stupid"... i definitely agree we are falling behind and need a massive revamp of the lagging education system... but i dont think its fallen THAT low... but lower than it should be
ya most people dont desire 4g... its kind of like cool if it comes with it but if it doesnt oh well-- until it expands farther then it will be a necessity
13. alpinejason (Posts: 262; Member since: 06 Sep 2011)
you are right not stupid just un-educated for the most part
17. jcpwn2004 (Posts: 314; Member since: 18 Jan 2012)
lucas, you must not visit facebook or twitter. Trust me, a lot of stupid people out there.
6. theruleslawyer (Posts: 108; Member since: 23 Apr 2012)
I wouldn't mind it. However it makes me even more paranoid about losing my phone.
16. 14545 (Posts: 1676; Member since: 22 Nov 2011)
Why? I've lost one phone ever. And I was sixteen. However, I have lost at least a half a dozen or more debit and credit cards.
8. taco50 (banned) (Posts: 5506; Member since: 08 Oct 2009)
I want mobile payments. I think they'd be just as secure as credit cards and online payments.
10. Non_Sequitur (Posts: 1111; Member since: 16 Mar 2012)
I hope you realize that:
1. It probably will not happen for the iPhone anytime soon
2. People thumbs down your comments no matter what you say because you are a less-than-intelligent Apple worshipping troll.
11. taco50 (banned) (Posts: 5506; Member since: 08 Oct 2009)
Mobile payments won't happen until Apple decides to make it happen. They're an innovator and have the clout.
23. Non_Sequitur (Posts: 1111; Member since: 16 Mar 2012)
Oh yay. Another genius who thinks Apple is an innovator.

I doubt they will go for it. Sky pay thousands of millions of £ for it. I think they will probably scare Apple away from it. Other companies have tried to take it away from them but they just pay over the odds. Sky have like 5/6 sport channels. If they lose the majority of the reason why people get Sky then they would lose those customers and then the channels.
They just need it more than Apple.
That would actually be the selling point that could push me to buy one.
It's a good idea. For me i live in Canada, pay $15 a month for a channel called Sportnet World for EPL games and other games come on TSN and The Score. TSN and Score are in HD so that is good.
Has nothing to do with SKY, SKY has the rights in the UK and apple TV wouldnt be allowed to broadcast all the games in the UK because of a blackout there just like SKY cant.
Saying that does APPLE TV have good quality for sports? would there be an extra cost involved??
If I can get decent quality live (HD) EPL matches in Australia without having to use Foxtel I'm sold.
The 'free' alternatives that I have found don't have the quality. There is an internet based subscription channel available in Aus as well but the quality wasn't up to it either.
If Apple is really considering going into Football, they should take advantage of the recent launch of Apple TV in Brazil and go for the Brazilian Football League, which will probably be waaay more cheap to acquire the rights of transmission and would guarantee hundreds of millions of subscribers all around the world.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 1/12/2012 (1725 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
After nearly three-quarters of a century of serving prime ministers, professional athletes and celebrities of all kinds -- not to mention countless regular Winnipeggers -- Mary Kelekis is ready for a rest.
The face of C. Kelekis Restaurant, a Main Street institution since the mid-1940s, has decided to turn off the grill for good on Jan. 30 and retire.
"I've worked here all my life. It's a second home to me. (Closing) is a very difficult thing for me," said the soon-to-be 88-year-old.
In between serving customers Friday, Kelekis and her staff fielded a flood of phone calls from around town and the country from friends and fans hoping the rumours were false. Once those were dashed, they passed on their best wishes.
With none of her relatives eager to take over the family-run business, Kelekis thought the best thing to do was close down. She is open, however, to other options, including selling the place.
The story of the Kelekis landmark dates back almost a century. In 1913, Chris Kelekis left a Greek community in Turkey to follow Magdalene, the love of his life, to Canada. They married and had eight children -- son Leo, and seven daughters: Chryse, Fotina, Sophie, Evelyn, Isabel, Mary and Becky. The daughters worked in the restaurant and son Leo, who was a lawyer, took care of legal matters.
Chris -- the "C" in the restaurant's name -- started selling french fries, or "chips" as he called them, out of a Model T Ford in 1931. Soon after, he added hotdogs and corn on the cob to his menu.
From there, he opened a pair of virtually identical restaurants in the mid-1940s, one at the corner of Main Street and Selkirk Avenue and the present location a few blocks away at Main and Redwood Avenue. The former closed down in 1956 when the latter was expanded.
Scott Jocelyn, executive director of the Manitoba Restaurant & Food Services Association, said he was sad to be losing the most experienced voice in the industry.-P96xavpg.js">
"Mary is iconic, just like her restaurant. I can't get my head around all the changes she must have seen in society and how that impacts our industry. I went there with my dad when I was growing up. It's a place everybody has to go to," he said.
Winnipeg Free Press restaurant reviewer Marion Warhaft said certain places such as Kelekis Restaurant "are beyond normal reviewing. It's iconic. It's just part of the city's history. I grew up on their hotdogs. It's the sad passing of restaurants like Kelekis, Alycia's and Wagon Wheel."
Recently, a scene from the hockey movie, Goon, was shot at Kelekis. In the scene, the young hockey goon played by Seann William Scott is talking to his parents (his dad is played by Eugene Levy) about his hockey career.
As much as the wall of pictures recorded the famous people who visited, Kelekis was always about ordinairy people.
"I remember going to Kelekis as a little kid in the mid-'50s," recalled Darlene Dziewit. "We would place our orders for skinny fries from their front window. They were served in a small brown cardboard boat, and you had to have vinegar and salt with your chips. Sometimes, as an added special treat, we got hotdogs, always split, with the works. They were the best hotdogs I ever ate, and they snapped when you bit into them."
The head of another Winnipeg institution has Kelekis to thank for giving him his first taste of the restaurant business. Earl Barish, who runs Salisbury House, grew up on Aberdeen Avenue, just down the street from Kelekis.
"My very first job after school was to walk to Kelekis. I took out the garbage and cleaned up a little and they gave me a hotdog, fries and a drink. I've been eating a hotdog, fries and a drink in large quantities since then," he said.
Mary Kelekis has received many accolades during the years including the Order of Manitoba and the Press Club's President Award. She is a founding member of Folklorama, which debuted in 1970, serving as co-ordinator of the Greek Pavilion.
email@example.com email@example.com
Sharing the memories -- now you share your own
NO visit to Kelekis is complete without checking its wall of fame.
More than 100 pictures of notable visitors during the years hang there. They include a pair of prime ministers, Pierre Trudeau and Jean Chrétien; former premier Gary Filmon; former mayors Susan Thompson and Bill Norrie; hockey players Bobby Hull, his Hot Line linemate, Anders Hedberg, Hull's son, Brett, and Billy Mosienko; and entertainers Randy Bachman from The Guess Who and Let's Make A Deal host Monty Hall. Iconic Winnipeggers, such as businessman Izzy Asper and sculptor Leo Mol, also grace the wall.
The one rule for high-profile customers? Somebody from the restaurant has to ask you for your photo. If you offer an unsolicited one, it will end up in the office downstairs.
ONLY one Kelekis customer was ever associated with a "mania."
Pierre Trudeau stopped by many years ago at the height of Trudeaumania. Before he entered, RCMP officers staked out the place, some roads were closed off and security officers were everywhere.
"It was the first time somebody really wanted to come to a place in the North End," Mary Kelekis said. "He had a hotdog and I had a picture taken (with him)."
A few years later, Kelekis was out East when she heard the prime minister was nearby. Wanting to take another picture, she approached Trudeau's entourage and was quickly told by security that wasn't possible. The prime minister, however, had other ideas. "He said, 'I know the lady; please let her in.' He asked how the hotdogs were and how everybody was. He never forgot a damned thing. He remembered everything," she said.
We'd like to hear your memories of this North End institution. Share your recollections with us by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com and we'll publish a selection in SundayXtra. Here is an example:
"Back in the early '70s, I worked there while attending St. John's High School. I worked as a short-order cook in the back with Mr. Steve. I learned the secret of their great coleslaw and make it at all special gatherings! (I keep the recipe a secret.) I had a great time working there -- met a lot of interesting and famous people. Not only did I work there -- my mom retired from there and two sisters also worked there. We lived across the street on Redwood and Kelekis became our extended family. I often bump into Mary Kelekis at Folklorama gatherings and reminisce about the good old days. Kelekis, you will be missed!"

Hi there,
Hoping some one can help me. I have 3 categories used as menus. They function giving the sense of three separate blogs on one parent blog. Is there a way when I search on a specific tag (which may be associated to multiple categories), to have the returned results separated by category? Or, if I'm in a certain category, to have, when clicking a tag, the results just show me the tag related to the specific category? Thanks very much.
i think the simple way is using a function which will display a tags to related category of your choice... :
function get_category_tags($args) { global $wpdb; $tags = $wpdb->get_results (" SELECT DISTINCT terms2.term_id as tag_id, terms2.name as tag_name, null as tag_link FROM wp_posts as p1 LEFT JOIN wp_term_relationships as r1 ON p1.ID = r1.object_ID LEFT JOIN wp_term_taxonomy as t1 ON r1.term_taxonomy_id = t1.term_taxonomy_id LEFT JOIN wp_terms as terms1 ON t1.term_id = terms1.term_id,
wp_posts as p2
LEFT JOIN wp_term_relationships as r2 ON p2.ID = r2.object_ID
LEFT JOIN wp_term_taxonomy as t2 ON r2.term_taxonomy_id = t2.term_taxonomy_id
LEFT JOIN wp_terms as terms2 ON t2.term_id = terms2.term_id
t1.taxonomy = 'category' AND p1.post_status = 'publish' AND terms1.term_id IN (".$args['categories'].") AND
t2.taxonomy = 'post_tag' AND p2.post_status = 'publish'
AND p1.ID = p2.ID
ORDER by tag_name
$count = 0;
foreach ($tags as $tag) {
$tags[$count]->tag_link = get_tag_link($tag->tag_id);
return $tags;
Then add this to your theme :
$args = array('categories' => '10,11,12');$tags = get_category_tags($args);
Change the 10-11-12 to your Categories ID !
Wow, thanks so much for this. I hate to ask, but where would I put this function statement (sorry, I'm new to all this).
hello, no problem we all have to ask when the things get Rough
Check your theme and put the first code on functions.php and the second code put it in single.php
Thanks again, deadmix! Much appreciated.
You are welcome

NOVI, Mich. - Students at Detroit Catholic Central high school Friday celebrated a new honor for their school.
Students attended a spirited assembly marking the traditional "Boys Bowl" football game that dates back to 1944.
During the assembly, school principal Fr. John Huber announced CC has received a coveted spot on a national honor roll.
"As one of the top 50 Catholic high schools in the United States," Fr. Huber said.
The award is based on academics and sharing of Catholic values.
The honor comes as the school has served as a rock for the Cipriano family.
Bob Cipriano was beaten to death during a break-in at the family's home in Farmington Hills. Son Sal, who is a CC student, continues his recovery from being beaten during that attack. Mother Rose is improving from her injuries and last week attended a Catholic Central football game with younger son Tanner, who was present at Friday's rally, wearing one of his late father's neckties.
School president Fr. Jefferson Thompson said the faith of students and faculty has helped everyone gain strength.
"When those difficult days came our way a few months ago, we didn't have to go and discover the faith we had. It just came to the surface," Fr. Thompson said.
Senior Dan Savakus is one of the 1,070 students at Catholic Central. He said students know they can rely on one another for help whenever it is needed.
"It's not just talk, it's actions and u can feel it here," Savakus said.
Catholic Central was one of five Michigan schools listed among the top 50 Catholic high schools.
Others honored included Everest Collegiate high school in Clarkston, Father Gabriel Richard Catholic High School in Ann Arbor, Saint Francis high school in Traverse City and West Catholic high school in Grand Rapids.

Box Score (PDF)
BETHLEHEM, Pa. - A stellar double-double of 17 points and 10 boards from Fran Dougherty went by the wayside on Tuesday night as Penn (1-5) closed out the NIT Season Tip-Off with a 73-66 loss to the Lehigh Mountain Hawks. Four Lehigh players combined for 67 of the team's 73, led by 21 from AP preseason All-American C.J. McCollum.
It's barely an exaggeration to say thatthe Quakers(1-5) had to start firing from the second they got off the bus. Due to traffic congestion leaving Philadelphia, the team arrived to Stabler Arena with less than half an hour until tipoff. The defending Patriot League champion and favorites to win again this year, Lehigh (3-2) took advantage of the obvious rust the Quakers were still dealing with in the opening minutes to build up a 10-2 lead before Steve Rennard settled Penn with a trey from near the top of the key. After a Lehigh miss, the Quakers pulled the ball out of a scrum and pushed the ball upcourt on the break where Rennard found Fran Dougherty who rolled in a hook shot to cut the lead back to 10-7 at the first media timeout.
Back-to-back threes from C.J. McCollum and Mackey McKnight staked the Mountain Hawks to a 16-9 lead before the Penn bench responded to turn the tide. Henry Brooks started the surge with a pair of buckets, and he was followed with a long two from Tony Hicks that cut the Lehigh edge down to 17-15. Solid defense from Miles Cartwright on McCollum forced a miss near the rim from the preseason AP All-American and Hicks then tied the contest on the other end with a fearless drive into the lane among the trees. After Lehigh momentarily went ahead, Patrick Lucas-Perry answered with a three to give Penn its first lead, 20-19, with 10:18 left in the half.
The Quakers grew their lead to three after Cartwright emerged from a pile-up and finished at the rim, but Lehigh came back with buckets from Corey Schaefer and McKnight to go back on top, 23-22. The freshmen class continued to contribute for the Quakers in the opening 20 minutes as Greg Louis and Jamal Lewis combined for five straight to send Penn into the under-eight stoppage of play with a 27-23 edge.
Defense became the story for the remainder of the half as both teams buckled down. Penn went scoreless for nearly four minutes before Darien Nelson-Henry took a dish from Dougherty and laid it in to tie things up once again, 29-29. Nearly three minutes later, Dougherty pushed Penn in front once again with a bucket in the paint, but Anthony D'Orazio responded with his only bucket of the night to give Lehigh the one-point lead at halftime, 32-31.
Penn went ahead again on the opening possession of the second half as Dougherty sealed off his man and took a feed from Rennard, slamming it home for the 33-32 lead. He'd add a bucket a couple minutes later, creating space in the lane for Louis to find him for another easy two, cutting the Lehigh lead to 38-37. That would prove to be as close as the Quakers would get the rest of the way. The Mountain Hawks mechanically expanded their lead with a 13-4 run, punctuated by a McKnight three that gave Lehigh a double-digit lead for the first time at 51-41 with 13:27 to play.
Penn's last gasp came as the game neared the under-eight minute media timeout. Three free throws and buckets from Brooks and Hicks allowed the Red and Blue to pull within six, 58-52, with 7:10 to play. However Lehigh promptly shot back with a 7-0 spurt of its own to take its largest lead of the game, 65-52, with 3:48 remaining. Late threes from Dau Jok and Hicks closed Penn within seven once again, but the Mountain Hawks connected on 18-23 free throws in the second half to close it out.
Besides Dougherty's 17, no other Penn player reached double-figures. Hicks came off the pine to score nine, while Brooks added eight on 4-5 from the floor.
As per usual, McCollum led Lehigh's offensive output, but he had plenty of help. Gabe Knutson produced 18 points and 10 boards, while McKnight added 15 and Holden Greiner had 13.
After playing its sixth game in 11 days to open the season, Penn will be thankful for a break. The Quakers return to action on Nov. 28 when they meet Binghamton in a 7 p.m. contest at The Palestra.
Game Notes: Penn fell to 22-5 all-time against Lehigh, and 160-51 against programs that currently compete in the Patriot League ... This was Penn's first true "road" game of 2012-13; the previous three games away from The Palestra were neutral-site affairs ... Penn wore its blue uniforms for the first time this season ... For the second time this season, Penn outrebounded its opponent (39-31) ... For the first time this season, Penn got more points from its bench (36) than from its starters (30) ... Penn's bench outscored Lehigh's bench, 36-3 ... Ten of the 11 players who got into the game for Penn scored ... Junior forward Fran Dougherty recorded his third double-double in the last four games with 17 points and 10 rebounds ... Dougherty has scored in double figures in five straight games (22.0 ppg during the stretch); he entered the season with three such games for his career ... Dougherty has led Penn in rebounding in all six games this season ... Junior guard Miles Cartwright had six points but went 4-of-5 from the foul line; he is 12-of-14 from the charity stripe in the last two games, 21-of-23 in the last three, and 26-of-29 in the last four ... Cartwright also set a season high with six rebounds ... Junior guard Dau Jok set a season/career high with six points, one night after doing the same with six rebounds ... Junior forward Cameron Gunter made his first start of the year, and second as a collegian ... Sophomore forward Henry Brooks set a season high with eight points ... Freshman guard Tony Hicks set season/career highs in assists (4) and minutes (27).

Canberra Raiders chairman John McIntyre has criticised the timing of doping allegations levelled at six NRL clubs, claiming everything so far is ''innuendo'' and is taking the gloss off the upcoming season.
And one of the club's foundation sponsors believes the Raiders are ''squeaky clean'' and are being unfairly dragged through the mud on the eve of the new campaign.
The Raiders were one of six clubs named in the Australian Crime Commission's report into sports doping and corruption, but no details have been released publicly as to why they are being investigated.
Fairfax Media understands the Raiders have been implicated for an isolated allegation of doping.
They are one of two clubs, along with the North Queensland Cowboys, that have not been audited as part of the investigation.
McIntyre, who did not attend a confidential briefing with the NRL and the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority in Sydney on Tuesday, said the damaging allegations couldn't have come at a worse time with the NRL season opener three weeks away.
''I wouldn't imagine there'd be anything untoward found, I'm very confident of that,'' he said. ''While we fully support stamping out drugs in sport, it puts everybody involved at the Raiders under pressure.
''We [Australian sport] have virtually become a laughing stock through something that is highly secretive.''
The doping controversy has taken the spotlight away at a time when the focus on the NRL should be on the upcoming season.
The Raiders have already had a bright start, with six players involved in last weekend's All Stars game.
McIntyre said he had spoken to a couple of sponsors in the wake of the doping allegations, and the general consensus was that it was ''a storm in a teacup''.
He didn't expect any significant departures and was confident memberships wouldn't be affected.
Canberra Milk managing director Garry Sykes, whose company has sponsored the Raiders since their inception in 1982, had no doubt the Raiders would be proven innocent.
''I honestly believe the Raiders are squeaky clean,'' Sykes said.
''[Raiders coach] Dave Furner knows everything that's going on there and he's not the sort of guy who'd allow anything untoward to happen.
''I just think it's terrible those six clubs have been named.
''Manly came out and said they've got nothing to worry about, and I'll tell you now, neither have the Raiders.
''The sad part about it is I think we're in for a bumper season, as far as the Raiders are concerned.''

Adam Scott has been further honoured for smashing Australia's biggest sporting hoodoo by becoming the first golfer to claim The Don award.
Scott ended 77 years of green and gold heartache at Augusta in April with his thrilling playoff win at the Masters.
The 33-year-old had to do it the hard way, making birdies on the final hole of regulation and the second playoff hole to hold off the challenge of Argentina's Angel Cabrera.
The performance was unanimously voted by the Sport Australia Hall of Fame (SAHOF) selection committee as the 2013 winner of The Don award, which celebrates the athlete whose achievements have most inspired the nation in the preceding 12 months.
"I am humbled and honoured to have won this award and join many great champions before me," Scott said via videolink at the SAHOF function at Crown Palladium.
"I'd like to congratulate the other finalists on their achievements this year and I'd like to thank the Sport Australia Hall of Fame for this honour."
Scott was unable to attend the function as he is playing in the PGA Grand Slam of Golf in Bermuda this week.
But he will return home next month as the headline act at the Australian Open, Australian Masters, Australian PGA and the World Cup at Royal Melbourne.
Scott's victory at Augusta made him the 10th Australian to win a men's major and the first in seven years.
Australians had finished as the runner-up at Augusta on eight previous occasions, including Scott's tie for second two years ago.
He had also blown a four-shot lead with four holes to play at the 2012 British Open, making his first major win all the sweeter.
Scott now sits a career-high second on the world rankings behind resurgent American Tiger Woods.
The other finalists for The Don award were rowing world champion Kim Crow, Test cricket captain Michael Clarke, wheelchair track and field athlete Kurt Fearnley, swimmer Cate Campbell, canoe world champion Jessica Fox and Casey Stoner, who ended a glittering MotoGP career last year.
Sally Pearson won the The Don award last year in recognition of her victory in the 100m hurdles at the London Olympics.
A key figure in another of Australia's greatest breakthrough sporting triumphs was also recognised with elevation to legend status by the SAHOF on Thursday night.
Sailor John Bertrand was the skipper of Australia II which ended 132 years of US dominance with a come-from-behind victory at the 1983 America's Cup.
Bertrand is also a decorated sports administrator who chairs the SAHOF and was recently elected president of Swimming Australia.
"To be next to the legends of sport, from Don Bradman through to Susie O'Neill, it's just something myself and my family are over the moon about," Bertrand said.
"It has been an amazing year.
"Last month we celebrated our 30-year anniversary of the Australia II victory with all the sailing team, including Alan Bond and Bob Hawke in Sydney.
"The US Oracle team skippered by Australian Jimmy Spithill won the Americas Cup on the same day, and here I am now being elevated to legend status."
Bertrand became the 35th Australian sportsperson to be recognised as a legend by the SAHOF.
