i just want to lay down a little thing that bugs me. this thread (among others by AutisticCuckoo) provides us with healthy knowledge. i want to say thanks to the author again. he has done a great job laying down crystal clear facts for us.
in this thread, there are two paragraphs:
The HTML 4.01 Strict DTD emphasises the separation of content from presentation and behaviour. This is the DTD that the W3C recommend for all new documents.
The HTML 4.01 Transitional DTD is meant to be used transitionally when converting an old-school (pre-HTML4) document into modern markup. It is not intended to be used for creating new documents.
The HTML 4.01 Strict DTD emphasises the separation of content from presentation and behaviour. This is the DTD that the W3C recommend for all new documents.
The HTML 4.01 Transitional DTD is meant to be used transitionally when converting an old-school (pre-HTML4) document into modern markup. It is not intended to be used for creating new documents.
i want to ask this:
even if we respect DTD for HTML 4.01 Strict in writing the code for a web page, the moment we start adding elements only as presentational hooks, like div, span, or any other element for that matter, but solely for the sake of presentation, just to be targeted later on with css (rounded corners techniques and others alike), aren't we, in fact, writing a HTML 4.01 Transitional DTD web page? even if we don't use those "11 presentational element types and a plethora of presentational attributes that are deprecated in the Strict DTD", isn't our code in fact describing a Transitional DTD?
going further on with this thought, isn't this also affecting XHTML world the same way? with all that strictness, the moment an XHTML markup is polluted with divs and spans as presentational hooks, then can it really even be called on as XHTML? not technically speaking, of course, but as a concept, is it still holding it's meaning?
it does. how much can you abuse other xml applications? can you make browsers treat svg differentiated, based on a parameter? how it is used changes that: by UAs, by authors. the specification it's only a recommendation, and that makes xhtml not xml.
and of course i'm not referring to the way you use it i'm sure you are a better web programmer than i am.
The point I'm making is that XHTML is XMLfrom A Reformulation of HTML 4 in XML 1.0
This specification defines the Second Edition of XHTML 1.0, a reformulation of HTML 4 as an XML 1.0 application, and three DTDs corresponding to the ones defined by HTML 4. ...
How it might be used, misused or abused doesn't change that.
xhtml it will be xml when it will be treated and parsed always as xml. it's not xhtml because it can be parsed as xml and as html also, is it? it's xhtml because
isn't it?
would it be treated like one if served as application/xhtml+xml?
true. i don't see where this is going, though, related to xhtml.
I purposely bugged my index page (for a few seconds) by taking out a closing unordered list tag to get this in FirefoxNote that it doesn't say XHTML error.
I don't understand how you can say it isn't XML when clearly it is.
Sure, I could remove the opening declaration and then it wouldn't be XML.But I could remove the opening declaration from an XML file too and then that wouldn't be XML either.
and also theoretically xhtml would still be good while xml will not (see below). so maybe it's conforming but it's not xml.
no, that would be a string that resembles xml. and xhtml sent as 'text/html' still translates to something rather than a string: it can be parsed, doesn't need escaping. that's why i've said this before felgall's example:
many (and i was, at first, one of them) understand xhtml like a UA has to, as a two lane highway: text/html or maybe, if i want, application/xhtml+xml. well, it's not quite right. it's a one way highway. that and the common wrong use, makes the term xhtml not to be associated with xml. it's just a mongrel. and i believe by the time ie8 dies, xhtml would have lived its days as a favourite pet. that doesn't affect its presently insignificant usability compared with its initial higher purpose.
It is an application of XML a reformulation of HTML thus all XHTML documents are XML conforming.
Yes, they should begin with an XML declaration and it uses XML type grammar and a namespace and is at bare minimum well-formed markup. Ideally it should be sent through an XML Processor but if it gets sent as 'text/html' then obviously it won't halt on errors and isn't treated as x(ht)ml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

But theoretically you could do the exact same with XML (code example) send it as 'text/html' obviously completely pointless but possible.
thanks xhtmlcoder. that's the point i was getting at
xhtml is treated like xml by a xml parser. but you can choose to parse it as html; when invalid, when desired. and the <?xml...> can be ommited. you can't fool around like that with xml in a real world application. so xhtml it's not xml.
Well, that is easy just get a well-formed XHTML document and delete a closing tag for example the closing
 in Stephen's 'example page' then serve it as: application/xhtml+xml.
Else you may be able to "cheat" if you have a XHTML Compatible browser like Firefox by changing the extension to *.xht and viewing it offline. It will probably assume it is a x(ht)ml document and "try" and render it as such... but of course it won't be able to render the page without it displaying a "warning".
For example you may see something like:
XML Parsing Error: mismatched tag. Expected:
.
Location: file:///C:/realxhtml.xht
Line Number 7, Column 3
Because it uses a real XML Processor.
thanks for info and link, felgall. could you please provide also a link to a "broken" xhtml? i would like to see how it renders (or not) in browsers that support application/xhtml+xml. thanks.
Yes they are since one error in an XHTML page will cause the page to not render - because XHTML is XML and applies all the same rules with the addition of those that apply to the specific variant of XML that goes by the name XHTML.
You are getting it confused with HTML which does allow you to get away with errors in the markup such as omitting tags or using the wrong doctype (such as attaching an XHTML doctype to your HTML web page).
To determine whether a web page is HTML or XHTML you look at the MIME type - if it is text/html then it is HTML and if it is application/xml+xhtml then it is XHTML.
All modern browsers with the exception of IE8 (and earlier) can process web pages written using XHTML (including IE9). If you try to serve a page written in XHTML to IE8 it will offer it for download because it doesn't know how to display it. Make a single mistake in your XHTML markup and because it follows XML rules you end up with nothing displaying at all.
See http://www.felgall.com/realxhtml.php for a very simple page written using XHTML and you will see exactly how different browsers treat it.
it probably is. depends on the programmer. while you can get away with lousy xhtml, if you use xml for other than a web page, you cannot make mistakes, or you'll be punished swiftly. that's why xhtml does not equal xml. an invalid xhtml document will always be used, while an xml malformed document will never be usable. these two are not synonymous.
and i don't know if every xml document out there has an  tag in it xhtml declares to be xml, but nobody cares much if it is so.
Perhaps what the OP is actually looking for is an HTML LINT. That will do a massive cleanup on their HTML 4 strict code to make it look more like a semantically correct web page is supposed to look.
HTML Lints will generally "trim" completely plain empty content elements, i.e.

 and so-forth but obviously if they have an attribute value they will be left intact.
Because that's all it's asked to do. But it could also use its built-in knowledge about headings to generate an automatic table of contents (some screen readers can do this, I believe). The point is that it 'knows' a closed set of element types and there is no way, except plug-ins and similar, to extend that set.
Sir Tim's dream about a semantic web relies on user agents 'understanding' the markup. Homegrown tag names will not make that possible.
Without semantics a web page is nothing more than a picture to look at. It has no meaning for applications which cannot interpret the visual information.
It isn't necessarily an address, but it is – at least it's supposed to be – contact information. Browsers 'know' this and could – in the ideal world where web authors knew what they were doing – use this to provide a means for getting in touch with the author. They couldn't do that if you chose to call it <postadress> and I chose to call it <contact> and Gary chose to call it <getintouch>, though.
Element types must be pre-defined and known to be useful. Web semantics is about making information meaningful to software, not about using markup that is human-readable.
Yes, that's exactly the problem: we'd have to tell the application what <city> and <street> means. To a general-purpose UA, such as a browser, it's nonsense. If we use  with class attributes, however, we give even browsers at least a hint about what it is.
Microformats is a way to add something approaching semantic meaning in a way that doesn't break backwards compatibility, which adding new element types would do.
No!<city> has no semantics to a browser because it's completely unknown. It could equally well be <town> or <stad> or <cité> or <fztwqln>.
Whereas  at least tells the browser that it's a span of characters that has some sort of special meaning.

Yes, but semantics is not about making markup easy to read for people!.
Now you're being silly, Gary. The UA style sheet is an integral part of the browser. Even Lynx has one, after a fashion.
So tell me how an XHTML-supporting browser (plus a search engine 'bot and a screen reader) would be able to understand arbitrary homegrown markup. You can't specify semantics in a DTD, only grammar.
That is where you are wrong, Gary. The markup tells user agents what the content is; not human users. <city> isn't semantic because an English-speaking person understands the word.
I'll say it again, since it seems that this is a point that a lot of people are missing:
Web semantics is about conveying meaning to software, not about writing markup that is self-documenting for human beings.
I know it's hard to believe for us professionals, but most users out there actually don't even look at the source code of most sites they visit! :eek:
I was under the impression that XHTML is XML.
The first line my pages serve to browsers that HTTP_ACCEPT application/xhtml+xml after the HTTP headers are sent is:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
i beg to differ. the real power of xhtml is xml. and xml could be easily put to work if <xml> element would've been implemented across browsers. much easier than three (useless) whole new specs, each with its problems.
an example of a possible xml island, related to one presented earlier:
<xml class="address">
<streetaddress>Hondenpoeplaan 5</streetaddress>
<postalcode>1234 GG</postalcode>
<country>People's Republic of Foo</country>
sounds a whole lot better than the redundancy employed by the false extensibility of xhtml. you can wrap pretty much every xml sequence in there, and still get away with semantics. the content of an element has little to do with that. once wrapped between <xml> tags, the content stops being about tags defining elements, and the rest being the content. all that is now content.
given the right implementation, to work around those tags inside xml islands, and doing something on the line of
 element to provide two types of subelements describing the xml element (xml-dt, xml-dd): info for the name and use of the custom tags used, and the actual xml sequence, this is something i was looking since four years ago and hoped until this day that it will become real. still do. and it's better for me than xhtml.
on the other hand, a new borne breed of elements that can be tagged with any mambo-jumbo string, will puzzle you useless, giving you a sense of overwhelming. and 90% of the time only looking to carry data for lazy programmers looking for shortcuts. or confusing vocabulary with lexical elements.
this is probably the most flip-the-coin-under-the-table technique i had to counter this far. when i say divs and spans are to give structure to the document, i get a counter saying these are semantically neutral elements that can be used for presentation. when i say that these elements can be used (only, in my opinion, for strict) as simple presentational hooks, i am reminded that they are in fact for giving structure to the document.
i understand specs: div and span give structure and provide with a neutral container than can be used for presentational purposes without affecting the semantics of the document.
the weak point i see when one uses divs and spans: specs should have said something on the line of
:
We discourage authors from using empty P elements. User agents should ignore empty P elements that was a bad common technique, that was spotted, using
s the wrong way, and was amended in the specs. if the use of empty, nested empty, neighboring empty divs and spans was a common technique for achieving presentational feats only, outside the content concern, at the time this specs were written, i'm sure something similar along the line of empty
s would have appeared in them.
you are right, validators can't decide over semantics. so that's why it's our job to further decide where simple tools fail. but i'm pretty sure that these markup constructs, like certain rounded corner techniques or image replacement techniques, can be easily spotted by a validator and marked as warnings, if nothing else. i get that transitional DTD for documents with such constructs may appear to some as an extraordinarily bad decision. but my hole point is that we constantly need to reasses what specs were saying then with what it's happening in the present days, along with the future prospects, because a transition is waiting for us in the near future, and it involves, among others, valid strict markup that is in fact a presentational only construct, construct that can/will be done with css. the future is not limited to html5+css3. and what yesterday seemed a permanent solution to a problem, today it's only a transitional way to resolving it. an adjustment is in place. and i, for one, felt the need to point that out, in a way that i saw feet to put trough the grinding machine of other more experienced minds, using sitepoint forum, to help me discover valid pros and cons.
Well you've had the Dutch kitty so I guess it's my turn to draw swords
I understand exactly what you're trying to imply throughout the thread and to some extent I agree with you that adding semantically redundant code (such as divitis, spanmania or classitis) does reduce the quality of the code in terms of being clean and tight, however the thing you seem to have missed is that when DIV and SPAN are used (even when their done in excess) it doesn't qualify as transitional markup because removing extrenous markup isn't part of what the DTD is about. The W3C validator and the semantic rules for appropriate use of code simply don't have the contextual awareness to be able to validly say that you're either using too much or too little code, or invoke best practices that you are using too much or too little to represent your content - that is something which is down to the nature of the content and the design. To imply the Transitional Doctype should cover such relevance would be impossible to maintain or police. Transitional by definition is to ease the transition from one standard (such as outdated practices like accessibility poor frames or style within structural element usage) in favour of new ones, not to dictate to people what may be classed as situational semantics (as best practices governing when and where elements should be used are very hard to define).
Because DIV and SPAN by default have no strict policy as to what kind of content they should be used within, that gives them added flexibility in that they represent structural boundaries of content with no specified semantic meaning. While it's easy to say that such elements are inherently stylistic because they don't hold semantic value, consider the case of Microformats... where semantic relevance is given where no appropriate element exists (such as marking up a vCard) where DIV's and spans are wrapped around a certain specified piece of textual importance (like a persons name) where no <name> element exists to represent it (and it holds no importance beyond how it could be interpreted when reading). This totally counteracts your claim that such usage would specify stylistic attribution alone, elements with no semantic value CAN be given semantic relevance in certain contexts, they are not transitional just because their being used outside of what the specification declares or the syntax of the DTD recognises (they're just being given additional relevance). Transitional code is about eliminating now-redundant functions which have been updated with better methods (like CSS which better describes and provides stylistic attribution), it's NOT about stating that poorly structured code thereby violates some sort of doctrine of hierarchy or context within the content. And their not always just wrappers for stylistic code.
ok Stomme poes, you're not helping me at all
let's me start over, from here.
What is the difference between Strict, Transitional and Frameset?The difference is which element types and attributes they declare, and how they allow or require element types to nest.
this one proves me way wrong.
i may have a point for the first part, about separation of content from presentation. the second part however it's pretty definitive.
The HTML 4.01 Transitional DTD is meant to be used transitionally when converting an old-school (pre-HTML4) document into modern markup.
i may have a point here if i lose (pre-HTML4). this is where i think we need an adjustment in thinking: modern markup.
It is not intended to be used for creating new documents. It contains 11 presentational element types and a plethora of presentational attributes that are deprecated in the Strict DTD.
again, pretty definitive, if you don't think about what modern markup means today as opposed to what modern markup meant back then.
Which DOCTYPE should I use?If you are creating a new web page, the W3C recommend using HTML 4.01 Strict.
If you are trying to convert an ancient HTML 2.0 or HTML 3.2 document to the modern world, you can use HTML 4.01 Transitional until you have managed to transfer all presentational issues to CSS and all behavioural issues to JavaScript.
if i reformulate this, thinking in modern markup terms:
If you are trying to convert an ancient HTML 2.0 or HTML 3.2 or HTML 4.01 document to the modern world, you can use HTML 4.01 Transitional until you have managed to transfer all presentational issues to CSS (regarding certain techniques like rounded corners or image replacement techniques) and all behavioural issues to JavaScript.
then i also may have a point.
what are the beside obvious drawbacks of using an extended meaning for this "modern" transitional?

Snyder County Renters Insurance
Shop Snyder County renters insurance rates, policies and coverages in PA. Get free Snyder County tenants insurance quotes at Insurance-Pennsylvania.com.
Snyder County renters insurance is a highly recommended coverage for anyone renting a house, apartment, or other dwelling in PA. Pennsylvania tenants insurance policies offer named peril and direct physical loss coverage. Named peril policies detail the things that are actually covered: fire, smoke, inclement weather, theft, etc… Direct physical loss policies cover everything that isn't explicitly excluded, such as floods. It should be noted that damage due to flooding requires a separate flood insurance policy.
Below, you will find the answers to some of the most commonly asked questions regarding Snyder County renters insurance:
Snyder County Renters Insurance
Is Snyder County Renters Insurance Required?
While it is not standard that your landlord requires you to carry a Snyder County renters insurance policy, some landlords and property managers do demand it for their tenants. This is especially common in dwellings like apartment buildings where different tenants live in one common structure. The idea behind requiring this type of insurance is that if you are responsible for damage to other the tenants' property, your insurance will cover the damage. An example of this would be if you accidentally cause a fire.
Doesn't My Landlord's Insurance Policy Cover Me?
No. This is a common misconception. The landlord's insurance policy typically only covers the landlord's property and buildings – it usually will not provide any coverage for damage to a tenant's belongings. So if the heater in your unit explodes and burns up all your stuff – without a Snyder County tenants policy – you probably will have to pay to replace everything of yours that was destroyed – with your own money! If your apartment is unlivable after the damage, you will have to pay for housing elsewhere – until the unit is repaired. This could cost you many thousands of dollars.
Do I Really Need Snyder County Tenants Insurance?
It is highly recommended that everyone who is a tenant in Snyder County, PA obtain this type of insurance coverage. Even basic household items such as cookware, common electronics (television, computers etc…) furniture, small appliances, bedding, and decorations can take many thousands of dollars to replace. Just replacing your clothing alone, could require big bucks, especially if you have a lot of professional clothes like suits or uniforms.
You have a choice between an actual cash value or replacement cost policy. If a claim is paid, actual cash value pays you what the lost possessions are worth at the time of the loss (the amount you paid – minus any depreciation). Replacement cost coverage pays enough replace your belongings, regardless of how old they are or how much you originally paid for them. So if you own a computer you bought 5 years ago for $1500 – it might only be worth $200 today, after depreciation – using actual cash value. But actual replacement cost could be $1000 or more in today's dollars " all of which is covered in the replacement cost policy up to your Snyder County renters insurance policy limits.
What Does Snyder County Renters Insurance Cover?
While most people understand that renters insurance covers the loss of personal property, a lot of tenants don't realize it also provides liability protection. Many tenants own pets and liability coverage is provided if your dog might accidentally cause an injury to someone. Or they tripped and fell, or otherwise were hurt in your apartment. In other words, if someone were to be injured in your household and they sued you and won, your tenants insurance would cover this liability up to the policy limit. This type of insurance can also cover you if you have to temporarily move out of your rented residence, due to covered damage, and you have to pay for a hotel to live in while it's repaired.
You do need to keep in mind that many standard policies will cap the replacement value on very expensive items such as jewelry, artwork, musical instruments, photography equipment, fine silver, and computers – however, you can buy additional coverage with higher limits for these items.
How Much Does Rental Insurance Typically Cost?
Given the protection and peace of mind that you receive when buy Snyder County renters insurance, this type of insurance is relatively inexpensive. It usually doesn't run more than about $200 a year and can sometimes be less than $100 a year – however there are many factors that go into determining rates. These include geographical location, prior claims in the building and/or neighborhood, and historical weather patterns such as hurricanes and crime rates. Another major factor in determining the cost is your deductible (how much you pay out-of-pocket until the insurance kicks in). The higher the deductible the lower your premium.
Snyder County Renters Insurance
Is There Anything Else I Need To Know Snyder County Renters Insurance?
It's probably best to keep a detailed inventory list, which can be written or even filmed on a camera phone. Do this so there will be no misunderstandings, and so you can't be questioned if you file a claim. Also, make sure to keep this list updated if you add significant items to your belongings.
It usually takes at least a few days for an adjuster to make a visit after a claim has been made. The actual settlement can take a up to a month or more so you should be prepared with contingency plans while you wait… because the payment is never instant on a Snyder County renters insurance claim – even with the best insurance companies.

THE education department at Blackburn Cathedral has been awarded the prestigious Learning Outside the Classroom Quality Badge, just 12 months after it was created.
Awarded by the Council for Learning Outside the Classroom, the quality badge is a national scheme that combines learning and safety.
It is designed to make it easier for schools to identify providers of quality educational visits.
The Rev Canon Dr Ian Stockton said: "Now there is recognition not only that Blackburn Cathedral is a significant resource for learning, but also that if offers a high quality and safe learning experience for visiting schools."
Joanna Booth, education officer at Blackburn Cathedral, said: "We think it's incredibly important to hold the learning outside the classroom quality badge.
"The quality badge is a great asset for teachers, giving them peace of mind that we're in-line with the curriculum and are meeting all necessary standards."

Selection Criteria for Turkey, Spring Select & All-Star
The selection criteria for the players (in no particular order) are:
(i) Skill level of the player
(ii) Attitude and commitment to play through the spring
(iii) Volunteer status of family. Turkey Teams can and should reward key volunteers from the regular season teams by selecting players that might otherwise not make a postseason team.
(iv) All Star players must have played in at least 72% of their division's regular season games. Tournament team players must have played in at least 50% of the division's regular season games. Except in the situation where the player is assigned in time to meet this requirement but is unable to play because of illness, injury, or a change of residence which causes a change of region. If questions arise, Division Commissioners are responsible for providing the game card data that confirm a player's eligibility.
(v) All-Star players must compete in the division in which they participated during the regular season. Spring Select players must be age eligible for the division (but could have played up during the regular season).
(vi) Player must be in good financial standing with the region. Tournament or Spring Registration fees are due prior to the first practice.
(vii) Tournaments or playoffs may have additional criteria which would prevent a player from participating in that particular tournament, but not the team in general. (i.e., some may have a rule that any player or coach who receives a red card for fighting during the regular regional season will be ineligible to participate).

Point being at the time it was the worst feeling ever. no moral victories just a desire to never feel that pain again. Toronto has that pain now, but wait till next year.

The Drakensberg Mountains – Ukhahlamba or 'barrier of spears' in isiZulu – extends for more than 200km across South Africa, creating a veritable wonderland of day hikes.
Starting in the north, Devil's Hoek is an ascending, hour-long, 3km valley hike from the Thukela car park. Or try an easy hike to McKinley's Pool, Gudu Falls and the Grotto. Another hour-long hike takes you to Otto's Walk via the Sigubudu Valley to view San rock art.
Tackle more moderate walks over 12km to Sigubudu Ridge in a four to five hour round trip, or from Rugged Glen Nature Reserve to Mahai, a five to six hour hike over 14km.
Hardcore hikers will be tantalised by the prospect of a 10-hour, 20km slog to Mont-Aux-Sources via Basotho Gate and The Chain Ladder. Follow the river valley past Witsieshoek to the Sentinel car park and up the chain to the top of the escarpment.
In the central Berg, the Blue Pool and Nyosi Grotto hike over two hours and 5km is the shortest, following the path of the Nyosi River south.
In contrast you could test your mettle on the long and arduous 10km Cathedral Peak hike from the Cathedral Peak Hotel to the top of the ridge.
Cathedral Peak to Ndedema is a fairly demanding option at three hours over 3.5km. The contour path rises up the Cathedral range and down the Ndedema Gorge.
Short and steep describes a 2km hike to Mushroom Rock from the Cathedral Peak Hotel, while two six-hour hikes – Ganabu Ridge to Baboon Rock, and Mlambonja Pass to Twins Cave – require a lot more stamina.
Ease off a little with a four-hour hike to the Tarn and Tryme Hills, through forests along the tributary of the Mhlonhlo River.
Crystal Falls and the Sphinx is a 3km hike from Monk's Cowl, or there's a short hike to Fern Forest to a waterfall and picnic spot.
A Southern Berg four-hour hike to Ash Cave in the Loteni area includes overnighting in a cave, but book beforehand. Cypress Cave is closer at two hours and sleeps eight hikers.
Eagle Trail follows a six-hour circular route, while Stable Cave Trail ascends the Steilberg and saves you two hours.
Boulder hopping and river crossings feature on the six-hour Sterkspruit Falls and Gorge hike over 15km from Monk's Cowl.
There are too many other wonderful hikes to mention. Please consult with the Drakensberg Tourism Association.

Jon Niese had a no-hitter going until it rained on his parade, rather pitching outing. He had a three-run lead in the third inning before a driving rain delayed the action.
When the rain subsided about an hour later, the Mets were back on the field and continued to pound the Tigers with a final tally of 14-6.
Angel Pagan got things started with a triple in the first inning, which drove home Jose Reyes. David Wright then drove in Pagan with a sacrifice fly.
In the third inning with light mist falling, Wright walked, followed by an Ike Davis single. Jason Bay then doubled, driving in Wright and putting Davis on third. Then the skies opened up and the tarp went on the field.
The rain delay didn't deter the Mets' offense as they continued to do damage after the rain subsided. Detroit starter Justin Verlander didn't come back onto the field to finish what he started. That was just fine with Mets, who feasted on rookie Jay Sborz.
Sborz hit Rod Barajas with a pitch to load the bases. He then hit Jeff Francoeur to drive in another run. Ruben Tejada also contributed with an RBI fielder's choice. After Niese failed to get down a sacrifice bunt, Reyes got his second hit of the night and knocked in Francoeur.
The Mets weren't done, however. Pagan singled in Reyes and Tejada after Reyes had stolen second base. Wright hit a single to center. That was it for Sborz, who allowed two inherited runners and allowed five runs of his own. Between Sborz and Verlander, the Tigers gave up 10 runs in the first three innings. Davis doubled to left to score Pagan and Wright.
The Tigers would not go quietly into that rainy night. In the top of the fourth, they got two runs off Niese with a walk and homer by Brendan Boesch. In the bottom of the fourth, the Mets answered back after Pagan drove his third and fourth RBI of the night.
Detroit roared back some more in the fifth inning, knocking Niese out of the game, despite a sizable lead. He gave up three more runs. When he loaded the bases with two outs, Jerry Manuel decided to pull him. It was a shame of an outing as it started out so promising, but rain delays will do that.
Fernando Nieve relieved Niese but allowed another hit to put the Tigers within 11-6. Niese was tagged with all six runs. They would be the last runs the Tigers would score. Nieve pitched two scoreless after that.
The Mets weren't quite done yet, either. In the sixth inning, Wright doubled to score Reyes. Davis then singled to drive in Pagan, and Bay hit a sacrifice fly in which Wright scored.
Bobby Parnell came into the game for some mop-up duty in his first appearance this year. His fastball popped at 98 mph, and he struck out two but walked one. Ryota Igarashi retired the side in order in the ninth.
The Mets gained a game on the Braves, who lead them by 1 1/2 games in the division.

On Monday, Robert Fitrakis, a Green Party congressional candidate and professor of political science, filed a lawsuit in federal court to stop the last-minute reprogramming of voting machines used by 80 percent of Ohio voters.
Tampering with voting machines is a violation of federal law.
The lawsuit was heard in court first thing Tuesday morning. A federal judge said hed issue a decision by about noon Tuesday, according to a report in Politico. He flatly dismissed the lawsuit.
It's an interesting debate. Read more HERE.
Greens have done this before. In 2004, Green presidential nominee David Cobb filed for a presidential recount in Ohio, a step that led to the conviction of Ohio election officials as well as substantial improvements in election procedures, according to Jill Stein and Cheri Honkala, Green Party candidates for president and vice-president.
"We are watching Ohio, Wisconsin, Colorado, Virginia, Florida, and other states again. And we are acting," Stein and Honkala said.
On Friday, Ohioans staged a protest in front of their state capitol.
On Monday, Stein appeared at the National Press Club in support of the Ohio lawsuit. More than 500 media organizations have reported on it, according to the Green party.

coldpower27 - Tuesday, November 08, 2005 - linkI believe he means RV410 (X700), or R430 (X800) both these products are based on the 0.11 micron process. This is hardly unusual in the graphics industry, they have these half nodes in between the proper nodes. The R420 is a 0.13 micron low-k product.
For instance there were the 0.22 micron process, and 0.15 micron process.
NV10 Geforce 256 used the 0.22 micron process.
R300 (9700/9500), R350 (9800), NV20 (GF3/TI), NV25 (GF4TI), used the 0.15 micron process. Reply

Well IBM has gone and done it, they've announced a cloud offering yet again. Actually what's interesting about this go, is not that they're getting into the cloud business (again) but instead this time they're serious about it. And like it or not, they're approach actually does kind of make sense for, assuming you're within their target demographic (the large enterprise looking to save a few bucks).
My summary of the "Big Blue Cloud" is as follows: It's not what you can do for the cloud, but what the cloud can do for you. Or simply, it's about the application, duh?
In a statement earlier today in the New York Times, IBM CEO Sam Palmisano said, "The information technology infrastructure is under stress --- and the data flood is just accelerating."
Palmisano isn't alone in this thinking, earlier this week Cisco Systems, the mobile networking giant, released a report suggesting that global Internet traffic is growing exponentially. Scientific American said that Cisco needed a newer term -- zettabyte, or one trillion gigabytes -- to measure both the amount of uploading and downloading traffic on the Web and the bandwidth required to accommodate it. At the heart of IBM's cloud announcement is this forth coming growth in internet usage and the battle to control the flow of information in this new zettabyte age.
More to the point, the Cisco report has a lot of interesting statistics, including the prediction that the Web will nearly quadruple in size over the next four years. Cisco claims that, by 2013, what amounts to 10 billion DVDs will cross the Internet each month. Or to put it another way, it will take over a million years to watch just one month's worth of Web video traffic. The findings point to "consumer hyperactivity" -- that with Web-enabled phones and mobile devices, more powerful computers, and multitasking, growth will only increase. For such a surge in volume, networks must be able to accommodate the growth. Whether the private or public clouds for many companies cloud computing may help solve this problem.
One of IBM customers at the Interior Department's National Business Center, a service center that handles payroll, human relations, financial reporting, contracting services and other computing tasks for dozens of federal agencies spelt out the opportunity. "For us, like other data centers, the volume of data continues to explode," Douglas J. Bourgeois said. "We want to solve some of those problems with cloud computing, so we don't have to build another $20 million data center.
Although not exactly sexy, IBM is hitting at the heart of the opportunity for big businesses looking at getting into cloud computing. First and foremost they're looking to address the issue of security and trust, secondly cost and thirdly massive exponential growth in network / internet based capacity. Turns out a lot of businesses aren't very comfortable handing over their data center and application management infrastructure to some up-start company or bookseller. The old saying "No manager ever got fired to choosing IBM" is as strong as ever. This statement is especially true of cloud computing. (And IBM knows it)
Here are the highlights of IBM's announcement:
- Smart Business Test Cloud — A private cloud behind the client's firewall. Basically IBM is offering to install "private clouds" for companies in-house, behind their firewalls built on a suit of existing IBM software with some IBM magic on top.
- Smart Business Development & Test on the IBM Cloud, a bundle of development and test tools that can be used on IBM's cloud -- a network running on 13 datacenters located around the globe.
- IBM CloudBurst — 42-unit server cabinet that comes preloaded with hardware, storage, virtualization, networking and service management software. Think of this as managed outsourced private cloud housed in an IBM data center.
I will say there are some glaring holes in IBM newly reinvented cloud offering. One in particular is IBM seems to have put together a combination of several existing products, rather then re-imagining the data center, they seem to have found a new way to market what they already had, which I'm not saying is bad, just nothing new. This is in direct contrast to IBM's rivals such as Amazon Web Services, Google and even Microsoft who have managed to create a totally new and integrated stack of cloud components. IBM's hodgepodge approach may be indicative of future acquisitions they may need to make to fully realise there cloud ambitions. (IBM Rightscale or IBM SOASTA CloudTest anyone?) Regardless, this latest move firmly places IBM in the center of the hottest land grab in IT.

Easily create beautiful uniform strings of pearls using gumpaste or even poured sugar. This mold is resistant to rips and tears and best of all, they are highly detailed and nothing sticks to them!! This mold is very soft and flexible and can easily go from as high as 450 degrees to the freezer without affecting the mold. This mold is a bargain in that it gives you BOTH sizes of these beautiful, chunky pearl strands! Kathy's Tip: Be sure to make your gumpaste ahead of time (by adding Tylose Powder to your Fondant), wrap it up and let it sit for 20-30 minutes so it can firm up slightly. Then place it into the mold, and it will come out much more easily, without stretching.

Speakers address high rate of STDs in Alachua County
Published: Monday, May 6, 2013 at 11:30 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, May 6, 2013 at 11:30 p.m.
Remember the first time you had sex— and asking your parents beforehand if you could?
Yeah, right.
Almost no one asks for their parents' permission to have sex, or even talks to their parents about sex — and that's precisely why schools and community organizations need to step in to educate teenagers about sex and sexually transmitted diseases, said Teresa White-Mercado, the regional minority AIDS coordinator for the Alachua County Health Department.
Mercado-White was one of several speakers at a public meeting Monday night at the health department on the high sexually transmitted disease rates among young people in the county and the ways to combat and prevent STDs in that population.
Alachua County has the fourth highest levels of STDs out of Florida's 67 counties, according to Florida Health Department data released in March, and much of that is driven by people between the ages of 15 and 19. Since the data was released, the county has mobilized efforts to reach young people — largely through texting campaigns with content about STDs.
Brandon Johnson, a junior at Gainesville High School, volunteered to text his peers, many of whom have since asked him questions about STDs, and confided in him.
"They can't go home and tell their parents. Sometimes I'm the only one who can listen," said Johnson, who was one of the speakers at Monday night's meeting.
"At Gainesville High, STDs are running rampant," Johnson told the audience of about 100 people, representing local churches, health clinics, the University of Florida, the police department and community members.
Johnson added that it's important for young people to be involved in sex education since they can more easily reach their peers.
"We've got to reach people where they're at," Mercado-White said.
Brandi Roach, a student advisor for the RCP Movement at the University of Florida, which stands for "respect yourself; check yourself; protect yourself," said the group does various initiatives such a handing out condoms on late-night campus buses and outside of nightclubs.
That may work for some students, but education needs to happen inside the middle and high schools, said Dr. Nancy Hardt, a professor at the UF College of Medicine.
"The parental conversation (about sex) happens from the school conversation," Hardt said, adding that according to a Florida Youth Behavioral Study, kids consider school to be the most trustworthy source of sex education, and most parents prefer school classrooms to be the place where kids learn about sex.
Hardt unveiled some telling statistics from the survey about the state as a whole: one-third of high school freshmen are sexually active, and two-thirds of seniors; a quarter of seniors have had more than four partners, exponentially increasing their risk of having an STD and passing it on.
Hardt cited St. Lucie County as a successful example of sex education in the schools: the school board there trained 1,500 teachers in sex and HIV education, and the county dropped from having the 20th highest STD rates in the state to the 44th highest rates.
Dr. Thomas Martinko, who practices general pediatrics and adolescent medicine at UF, said that "contact interviews" — essentially tracking and testing all the partners of STD carriers — would be essential to containing what is considered an epidemic.
"These aren't my patients," Martinko said of the potential and past partners of his own patients. "I can't contact them. The health department can."
Martinko also suggested school-based or school-linked primary care clinics that can do STD testing, alongside testing for other diseases and even sports physicals.
Other suggestions from young people in the audience included making sex education part of the science curriculum, or talking about sex and STDs in after-school activities and clubs.
"Make it the cool thing to do," one woman said.

In aortic valve regurgitation, the aortic valve does not close
completely. The valve lets blood leak back (regurgitate) into the heart.
In a normal heart, the aortic valve opens to let oxygen-rich blood
flow from the left ventricle into the aorta. The aortic valve closes
completely when the heart rests between beats. The closed valve stops blood from flowing
backward into the heart. But in aortic valve regurgitation, the aortic valve
does not close completely. So with each heartbeat some of the blood pumped
into the aorta leaks back into the left ventricle.

While minding my own business in another thread, oddz pointed out that my code would be better suited as an Unordered List versus Div's.
It even caused him to say...
I don't mean to go deathshadow on you or anything but using divs for a list is not semantic.
(Sounds pretty serious?!) :eek:
So, here is a larger slice of my code...

When most people think of "corporations" they think of mega-companies like Wal-mart, Microsoft, General Motors, Citibank, and so. However the reality is that all it takes is one person to become a "corporation", and now might be the right time for your small-business to consider making the switch.

I think oddz may be on to something here, but who knows?! (:
What do you think could be done to take my code to the next level?
Nope, I don't see anything there that I would code as a
. It's true that you've got a lot of nested
s, and it may be that with smarter CSS and descendent selectors you could get rid of one or two of them, or maybe leave out some classes or IDs (without seeing the whole page, it's difficult to know how necessary they all are), but realistically each
 looks like it is serving a purpose so I don't see anything major wrong with the structure.
Are you kidding it is a clear list of related items. I mean… having to do this it seems pretty clear to me:

...

...

...

...

...

I think I might be doing the same thing. is this wrong
The DIV is a generic style container on the whole thus is fairly neutral since DIV elements define content block-level but impose no other presentational idioms on the content.
Personally I cannot see any list appearing - just from the sample itself - though they do seem to be standalone articles with associated headings, which is what they are at the moment.
I'm surprised I'm the only one who believes that should be a list considering it is a list of aggregated content.
I see a list of article summaries.
I'm sort of with oddz on this one except I might use a definition list
 in this case instead of a

I would put the contents of the
s in the
 and the rest of the content relating to the
 in a

It is a collection of article (summaries) which could easily be placed in a table but there is nothing to strongly suggest it is an inline list of items and all CSS names must be discounted. Only in the loosest sense it becomes an inventory.
For what it's worth, it doesn't look like a list of any sort to me, either. I'm a great fan of definition lists, but even I wouldn't use one here.
I would still use a list but the crowd has spoken.
As for a definition list that generally leads to more problems than it solves considering all content for a single entry isn't contained within a single element. That decision *may bit you in the *ass when it comes to achieving certain design goals. Not to mention a true heading tag could not be used when one is using a definition list if in fact the title/heading for an article would be contained in a dt. That can have some negative SEO implications.
I would hardly call the opinions of a handful of people in this thread a "crowd" or necessarily a representative view of what is actually thought out there on the cyberweb. You would have to poll multiple websites and get a fairly large response for the opinions to be valid statistically.
I guess the markup you would use depends on the final layout and styling you need. If I wanted to put a border around each article and its heading I probably wouldn't use a
 and I would probably us a
 or
s similar to the op. At the end of the day, as long as the markup passes the w3c validator with a strict doctype then it really doesn't matter a rat's clacker whether some sort of list is used or not. Well, it doesn't matter to me at least
So how could I improve my markup?
Or does it look okay the way it is?
I see what you're saying but where do you draw the line? Is everything with a repeated pattern a list of something? Is a bunch of paragraphs a list
? Aggregation lends itself to DIV or
 in this case.
Can you possibly show the actual layout or maybe a link? There may be extraneous DIVs. Are they all necessary?
Just focus on everything below...
Paul O' helped me with my page layout, so that is rock-solid!
The code below the above comment is mine, so that is certainly prone to errors or "newbie-ness"!
When dealing with a master page that aggregates content with a link to disclose a detail page for a single entity. The other scenario is a list of featured, most recent, etc items shown as an aside or something.
Another reason for using a list instead of nested divisions is easily targeting the container for each item without picking up any other divisions inside the container. Granted this can be completely avoided using a child selector but unless you have completely phased out IE6 it is worth a mention.

A div used for something important

A div used for something important

A div used for something important

A div used for something important

ul.stories li {
Now look at the next scenario:

A div used for something important

A div used for something important

A div used for something important

A div used for something important

div.stories div { /* this will also affect the div with the info */
The only solution other than applying the same class to each division would be this:
div.stories > div { /* This will not work properly in IE6 though... */
So Your left with:

A div used for something important

A div used for something important

A div used for something important

A div used for something important

div.stories .story {
It is much more common to have divisions within each item than lists. So ul li { } can be used pretty safely.
That said I don't think using nested divisions are necessarily wrong for aggregated content but I do believe using a list is more semantic – if we are getting picky.
I can't offer a complete answer because I'm recovering from surgery and can't sit at the computer. I'm stuck typing on my phone.
The examples seemed unnecessarily wordy to show your point. I'd have to know why you used doubled up DIVs instead of aggregating them in one.
A list-item to me is one element, I suppose. Beyond that they seem to get less meaningful to me. That's just me though.
Well to that I say if a list item was only meant to have text it would be an inline rather than block element.
You're replying to a statement I didn't make.
A good rule of thumb is to ask "does this already have a semantic meaning?" without the extra tags with meaning around them. You have numbered heading tags saying that they are the start of a new subsection. You have paragraph tags which are pretty much clearly the content of those sections...
So why would you put more tags with meaning around them? It's redundant. That's where I draw the line on list items -- if you are going to have headings, they already have semantic meaning, don't add more meaning around it.
Which again, is also my problem with HTML 5's new SECTION, HEADING, NAV and FOOTER tags... which result in wrapping extra meaning for nothing around tags and elements that should already be semantic; used to be stacking semantic meanings was considered a bad thing. As Dan often said, the people who did endless nested tables for nothing, now just do endless nested DIV for nothing -- in a way I'm glad he never got to see the "endless nested HTML 5 tags for nothing" repeating the same idiocy.
It's WHY we use DIV to group tags as sections -- as DIV does NOT imply any semantic meaning to what it's wrapping. You want a clear section you don't need section, you need a heading to say you're starting a section or a HR to indicate a change in topic without a heading or as a major section/topic break. (and if need be, hide them for screen with CSS -- so they're still there for all the other media targets as needed).

Steak Fact SheetCuts: Rib Steak
Grade:USDA Prime
Breed: Black Angus
Dry Aged? Yes, 40 Days
Pre-Cooked Weight: 44 oz.
Price: $118
Price per Ounce: $2.68
Walk into a butcher shop in Italy and request a costata and you will be presented with a familiar-looking cut, even if you don't speak Italian. Costata translates into rib steak—one of the most popular prime cuts available. An Italian ordering the costata at Costata, on the other hand, will probably be a little shocked by what descends upon the table. In fact, even local steak aficionados might be a little surprised by the sheer size of the signature dish at Michael White's downtown Italian-inspired steakhouse. I say "inspired" because the steakhouse such as it exists in America, and in New York in particular, has no direct analog in Italy—the Italians simply haven't engaged in this type of wanton gluttony since they were Roman and ruled by Caesars.
The cut in question is a massive 44 oz. "tomahawk" rib steak, which comes from Creekstone Farms and is dry aged for 40 days by butcher Pat LaFrieda. It is majestic enough to name your restaurant after it, and it's a worthy showcase for the skills of both the butcher and chef/owner Michel White and Costata's executive chef P.J. Calapa.
Costata takes in whole rib sections from LaFrieda and fabricates the steaks in house. The bones on the trimmed steak, which curve gracefully like a gladiator's sica, are much longer than most tomahawk cuts, and contains a significant portion of short rib meat, adding a different, but no less compelling texture and flavor to an already abundantly flavorful cut.
The steaks are then seasoned liberally with freshly ground pepper and, in true Italian fashion, rosemary salt before being seared on a flat top and finished in a broiler. Take a look through the slideshow to see how the steak goes from aging box to table, and tune in next week when we look at the other steaks on the Costata menu.

The Alabama Shakespeare Festival Will Present Post-Apocalyptic MACBETH
The Alabama Shakespeare Festival will offer a gritty and chill-filled version of William Shakespeare's Macbeth January 25 through May 18. Under the direction of ASF's producing artistic director Geoffrey Sherman, one of the literature's greatest and most powerful tragedies is set in a haunting post-Apocalyptic world.
Tickets start at $30 in the balcony and on Preview night January 25. Prices range from $35-$60 for regular performances and can be obtained on line at www.asf.net , by calling 800.841.4273 or by visiting the ASF box office located at 1 Festival Drive in the heart of Montgomery's beautiful Blount Cultural Park.
When three witches prophesize that war hero Macbeth is destined to be king, he becomes obsessed with the possibility of achieving unrivaled power. Encouraged by his equally ambitious and ruthless wife, Macbeth uses all means at his disposal, including murder, to make his way to the top and stay there.
Fans of modern dramas like Revolution, The Hunger Games or Mad Max, will appreciate the play's modern post-apocalyptic world, where resources are depleted and every man, woman, and child must fight for survival. Scenic Designer Peter Hicks presents an angular, dark world with fixtures made of now useless firepower weapons and industrial trash. Brenda Van Der Wiel's edgy costumes display each characters wild, punkish side.
Macbeth will be performed by ASF newcomer Ian Bedford. Lady Macbeth will be performed by Jennifer Barnhart, who was last seen in ASF's productions of Dracula and The Merry Wives of Windsor.

"Hello" from the remote islands of Fiji, where Capt. Carol Dunlop has spent three decades preparing for your charter.
Story and Photography by Kim Kavin — October 2004
A dark-skinned man in a Polynesian shirt wrings a yellow cloth with his calloused hands. Gray liquid—pounded kava root mixed with water—drips from between his fingers into a large bowl before him. He puts down the mangled rag and picks up what appears to be half of a coconut shell. He scoops a healthy serving of kava from the large bowl and into this bilo, which he then offers to me.
The older men sitting cross-legged around us on grass mats under the palm trees tune their guitars, but the younger men watch with anticipation. I look to Capt. Carol Dunlop of the charter yacht Surprise. She nods confidently. She's taught me what to do.
I clap once—a hearty smash of my palms—signaling my willingness to drink, and take the bilo in both hands. I tip it over my bottom lip and gulp down the kava. A few drops stray from the corners of my mouth. It tastes like a mixture of Jagermeister, Robitussen, and dirt.
Aware of my audience, I smile broadly and hand the bilo back, then clap three times to say thanks. The man fills the bilo again and offers it to the person next to me, making his way around the circle. As I watch the others imbibe, my lips begin to go numb. I lick them and realize the back of my tongue feels fuzzy. The sensation pricks down into my throat as I swallow, and within seconds, I feel calm. Not drunk, not high, not at a loss for a single faculty, just simply, purely, utterly content.
Surprise's captain smiles and picks up her ukulele, and the men begin to strum and sing. Dunlop is the lone woman among them, as she has been here in the villages of Fiji for quite some time, paving the way for all of us Westerners who want to experience real culture in the South Pacific.
Fiji has long been an exotic dream destination. It has two main islands, Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, which are ringed by more than 300 smaller islands, many of them uninhabited. The waters and reefs are pristine, the palm trees are plentiful, and the white beaches carry no footprints. Fiji is, in many ways, what the Caribbean was a generation or two ago: a paradise of sun, sand, and friendly natives just beginning to be explored by vacationing boaters.
On the western side of the chain, the resorts' proximity to the airport in Nadi keeps tourists away from the distant archipelagos—that is, except for those who make the quick taxi ride from the airport to board Surprise. The 115-foot McMullen & Wing is the only luxury charter yacht that calls Fiji its permanent home. Dunlop, a British expat who understands five-star service and has been cruising in these waters for 30 years, joined Surprise after the boat's 2001 launch. She has since trained a crew of her favorite local boaters and strengthened her personal ties to the elders in remote villages where she wants to bring her guests.
