Hello everybody.
I'm trying to figure out the best approach to display multiple categories next to my posts.Currently I have a very simple list with just a title and a small content area.The way it works is like a blog someone clicks on the title and they'll will be taken to the full content.But i want to display linked categories next to each listed post.
like this:
TITLE 1 POSTED IN: IMAGES
TITLE 2 POSTED IN: BOOKS, COVERS
TITLE 3 POSTED IN: GAMING, RETRO, VIRTUAL-CONSOLE
So I figured I should store the data in my database like this:PostTablepostIDpostTitlepostContent
So here comes my question and i hope i'm asking this in the right place.But how do I display multiple linked categories next to my posts?
I tried this:
SELECT p.postID, p.postTitle, p.postContent, GROUP_CONCAT(catName) AS categories
FROM PostTable AS p
LEFT JOIN CategoriesPostRelationTable AS cp ON p.postID = cp.postID
LEFT JOIN CategoriesTable AS c ON cp.catID = c.catID
GROUP BY p.postID
But the problem is I need linked categories.How can add in the links?So I can echo it out in php like this:
echo '' . $row['catName'] . '';
Is there a approach without the use of GROUP_CONCAT?Mabey using two queries with php I really don't know?
Basically i'm trying to find the best method to get the result i want and i want to make sure it's not going to slowdown the website.Thanks for the help.
SELECT p.postID
, p.postTitle
, p.postContent
, GROUP_CONCAT( CONCAT(c.catHref
, '-'
, c.catName)
) AS categories
FROM PostTable AS p
JOIN CategoriesPostRelationTable AS cp
ON cp.postID = p.postID
JOIN CategoriesTable AS c
ON c.catID = cp.catID
BY p.postID
i'm sure you will know how to discombobulate this in php
First of all thanks for the help r937, but i'm not exactly sure how to split up the links with php efficiently.
I know about the explode function in php but i'm not quite sure if thats the correct way to do this sins I need to split the categories and at the same time I also need to extract the hyperlink part en name part of each categorie.Could you give me some tips how to do this?
please hit the little orange flag on one of your posts and request that the thread be moved to the php forum
it would be a good idea to post a couple of examples of the entire "categories" string from your query so that the php folks can see the two different separators at work
Moved per OP request....
Some things are not clear to me.Are you creating a new Category with each new POST? Seems the only place you are storing catHref links is in that categories table.What kind of links are you storing in catHref? For example are we talking directories like BOOKS would be "/books" and COVERS be "/books/covers"?If there are actual articles then would they then be shown with GET['id']? Example: /books/covers/index.php?id=26
Maybe attaching an sql file containing a sample of your tables with data and an sample of what a link should look like would help clarify things.
Here is my sql
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `categoriespostrelationtable` (

Note: I changed the catHref column name to catPath
The catPath column stores the directory path i'm planning to use when someone clicks on one of the categories listed next to the posts.It works like this I have php file named categories.php this grabs all posts in a specific category.With a $_GET['cat']; which uses the catPath column.In the end i'm going to use htaccess to rewrite the urls to make clean website paths like this for example:
I'm not creating new categories on each post, categoriesTable stores all categories i have.categoriesPostRelationTable stores the relation between each post and category.This way a post can have multiple categories ore just a single one.
My main problem was the SQL, I wanted to display my posts like this:

Posted in Books, Paperback
I had trouble figuring out how to select multiple categories names + the paths associated to multiple posts.I know how to grab all categories in a single post but I didn't know how to do it with multiple postsr937 here on sitepoint helped me with the query and came up with the GROUP_CONCAT + CONCAT.This works so now my query to select all my data looks like this:
SELECT p.* GROUP_CONCAT( CONCAT(c.catPath,'.',c.catName) SEPARATOR ';') AS categories
FROM posttable p
LEFT JOIN categoriespostrelationtable cp ON p.postID = cp.postID
LEFT JOIN categoriestable c ON cp.catID = c.catID
GROUP BY p.postID
ORDER BY p.postTitle DESC
So the data I now currently have is this:
[1] => Array
[postID] => 1
[postTitle] => Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival
[postContent] => Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption Paperback – July 29, 2014

[postTitle] => The History of Nintendo 1980-1991 SC
[postContent] => The second volume of The History of Nintendo is dedicated entirely to the fabulous Game & Watch games, a famous line of electronic LCD games which was very popular in the early 80's.

You'll also uncover the difficulties encountered during their development, the secrets behind this new concept at the time, and dozens of unexpected documents.
[categories] => books/.Books;paperback/.Paperback
Now i'm trying to figure out a way with PHP to separate the category data so i'm able to echo them out as links.As you can see in the array currently all category names + paths are beeing appended into a single string.So my question now is how can I separate the categories and extract the path parts so i can display them like links.Hope everything is a bit clear.
I believe this should do it.
$sql = "SELECT p.postID

This rental was clean and well kept up. Good niebors and quite. Enjoyed my stay very much. Would stay again with no hesitation.
My family of 4 adults and 4 young kids an our little doggy stayed for a whole week. It was a perfect stay and we were so close to many different beaches. Clean place and loved having a washer and dryer. Beds were comfy and we would for sure stay again and recommend this place to others. It has a neighborhood pool for private guests that was one of the best pools I have been in and so clear and clean. We will be back!

Date: 2nd April 2014
Venue: London School of Economics, London
This event is degined to follow on from the Economics Network autumn workshops. It will focus on building confidence when teaching, innovations in economics education and how to teach specific topics in the economics curriculum.

Published December 2012
A new academic year had begun. We the newly recruited graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) were stuggling to cope with the expectations put on us by the course lecturers (who we tutor for) on the one hand and the students on the other. Amidst all of this, the recently organised GTA workshop at the University of Exeter came as a fruitful solution. Not only did it help sooth our apprehensions and answer our queries, but the workshop also provided ample guidance on what is expected of us GTAs.

Glasgow curries most favour
Glasgow has been named the curry capital of Britain after beating off competition from nine other cities.
It faced challenges from Edinburgh, Cardiff, Manchester, Bradford, Birmingham, Leicester, Sheffield, Newcastle and London, in winning the award.
Four Glasgow restaurants - the Ashoka at the Mill, Creme de La Creme, The Ashoka Flame and the Shish Mahal - were chosen to represent Scotland's largest city for this year's Kingfisher Curry Capital of Britain award.
The winning city was judged by the number of public votes given to the nominated restaurants and on the dossier submitted by the local council.
'High quality'
Glasgow City Council Lord Provost Alex Mosson said the win was a "great accolade" for the city.
He said: "The city can be justly proud of the high quality of restaurants which are enjoyed by locals and visitors alike.
"A special word of congratulations must also go to the four restaurants representing Glasgow in the curry capital bid.
"Their high standards of service, professionalism and innovative cuisine have ensured that Glasgow merits being Britain's curry capital."
London won the first Kingfisher curry award last year.

25 million sounds impressive and it indeed is. Most of those footprints are for large U.S. cities and metros. Los Angeles, Chicago, Miami, Houston and the San Francisco Bay Area are some of the areas where the changes will be most obvious. The additions however will also touch on the whole United States.
But how did Google manage to add so many new footprints? It is, of course, using aerial images and combines this raw data with computer vision processing to come up with dimensions and shapes for buildings.
"This process enables us to provide more building footprints and a more comprehensive and detailed map than ever before," Google said.
Actually, this is the same core process used in Google 3D Maps. In the meantime, if you're still wondering whether Google Maps is being developed for iOS and the iPhone 5 the answer is not clear. It's all under consideration, and lastly Google CEO Larry Page said that while he would like Google to serve Maps to all platforms, the walled-garden approach (like the one in the App Store) stops or at least slows that down.

The Seattle Seahawks said they would "listen to everything" in regards to a possible trade of Matt Flynn.
"It's so early to ... it's not like I've had a chance to sit down other general managers to talk about what their situation is," GM John Schneider said. "But we're always going to listen to everything. That doesn't necessarily mean we will do something with Matt."
Flynn is a luxury for the Seahawks considering Russell Wilson is entrenched as starting quarterback.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 5/11/2013 (1387 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A quick update on what the province's Clean Environment Commission recently heard on Manitoba Hydro's Keeyask generating station project.
The CEC is currently weighing recommending the province grant an environment licence for the new northern dam. Public hearings are now skedded to go into the week of Dec. 9.
Last July the CEC slammed Manitoba Hydro for its shoddy environmental impact study for the Bipole III transmission line project. The CEC still recommended the province issue a licence for the project, but added it wanted a more detailed study into what the cumulative impact has been on the Nelson River from hydro development going back to the 1960s.
The CEC wanted that study before it considered the licensing of any additional projects, including the estimated $6.2-billion Keeyask project.
Prior to the CEC starting its hearing on Keeyask this fall a number of groups, including environment group Manitoba Wildlands, argued the CEC should live up to its own words and delay the hearing until a such a cumulative impact study is done.
It didn't happen.
What has happened is that the CEC panel has recently heard from a private consultant on the impact of the Keeyask project on the land and its wildlife.
The 160-page report is on the CEC's website.
It's a big report and depending on your computer takes a while to load.
Manitoba Wildlands says pages 33-38, 41-47 and 56-62 touch on cumulative effects.

Pop Music is shorthand for 'popular in the taste of many.' Poetry uses words to provoke emotional or sensual responces, often adding a creative meaning to a message. The music industry produces its share of mass-consumed anthems to escapism, but occasionally, a voice and talent is heard among the offerings and it shines when surrounded by others' work.
A Flutter and Some Words is Ingrid's long-awaited return to songwriting. She was gracious to oblige our request for an interview during the launch and promotion of her new album.
TP. Your eponymous album Ingrid Chavez – May 19,1992 (released in 1991, The title is the first anniversary of the date the cover art was photographed) was a revelation and the spoken words, the poetry and the dance-pop tracks were visionary for that time. How did the collaboration with Prince begin?
IC. I ran into Prince at a nightclub in 1987 I think, and we made an instant connection. I was bold enough to tell him that I was a singer-songwriter. I started writing poetry for him and he really liked it. He wanted to see what I would do in the studio on my own so he gave me a day in the studio at Paisley Park. I had no idea what I might do in there but I was up for the challenge. I recorded some very strange pieces. I've always loved experimenting with flipping tracks so I had backwards guitar and pitched vocals with layers of harmony. I had the engineer help me record some percussion and then the vocals were a mix of spoken word and singing. I recorded two tracks that day. Both were very strange and the look on his face was priceless. He was intrigued. He made an offer that if I wrote 21 poems that he and I would go into the studio together. Once I had the poems, we went in and he put me on a microphone and set up a keyboard in the control room. He would ask the title of the poem, play around sounds on his keyboard until he found a sound that suited the title and then he would signal for me to start reading. We went through all 21 poems this way. The original performance was completely improvised. Prince and I parted ways shortly after that and I went on to form a band with Richard Werbowenko called Skyfish. I ran into Prince's brother one day and gave him a copy of the Skyfish record to give to Prince. I came home a few days later and my little apartment was completely filled with white flowers. Prince called and said that he just finished recording Heaven Must Be Near and that it sounded like spring time in Paris. He asked me if I would like to finish the Poetry album.
TP. Tell us about your childhood and your musical education. At what point did you decide to pursue a career in music?
IC. I remember falling in love with David Bowie's song Fame. I didn't buy many records as a child but I did buy that single and although I loved Fame it was the B-side, Golden Years that I fell in love with. I started fantasizing about being a singer myself, I suppose. Later I would discover Prince and that was when I decided I would make becoming a singer/songwriter my goal. A few years later I discovered David Sylvian's music and it heavily influenced my approach to writing lyrics and my songwriting in general. I had no formal musical education. Music was just a calling.
TP. Were you a femme fatale, a tomboy or a geek in high school?
IC. I didn't really belong in any group in high school. For the most part I would say that I was a bit of an outsider looking in, counting down the days for it all to end.
TP. Most singers and other performers looking to break into the business go to New York, Los Angeles or Tennessee. Why Minnesota?
IC. It was fate and an unfortunate turn of events that would place me in Minneapolis. I was living in Atlanta and I was in a band called China Dance with my partner at the time, Steve Snow. We moved into this old candy factory on the outskirts of the city. It was big enough for us to live, record and rehearse in. A few weeks after moving in, we left for a few hours to take a friend to the airport and when we came back, everything was gone. All of our equipment was stolen. Steve is originally from Minneapolis, so the logical thing to do was to move there and start over. About a year after moving there, Steve and I went our separate ways. The arts and music were thriving in the city back then, so it wasn't too long before I was on my merry musical way.
TP. Of artists that inspired you, were there any men or women who made a lasting impression on your style or your charismatic presence?
IC. Marlene Dietrich was a great inspiration for me. I loved her style. She was strong and she influenced my love of women wearing men's clothing. I was also really influenced by the world of Man Ray during his Paris years. That influence shows in the video for Elephant Box and the May 19, 1992 album artwork. I worked with Mathew Rolston on the video because he loved Man Ray as well and he heard me when I said I wanted to bring Man Ray's photographs to life.
TP. Most artists have beautiful stories to tell behind their songs. Tell us a bit more about your first single, By The Water.
IC. By The Water is a very sensual song. It's about that moment when you lay yourself open and allow yourself to be vulnerable, that moment when you let someone in and they let you in.
TP. What are favourite moments or anecdotes you would like to share with us from the development of your album A Flutter and Some Words?
IC. Well, I got to spend some wonderful time in Northern Italy. All of the vocals were recorded there over three different sessions. One time we were at a big beautiful retreat space called Shanti House on the countryside in a region called Lunigiana. It borders Tuscany. We set up a recording space in one of the buildings on the property, The Gompa. It was very hot in August and of course, there was no air conditioning, so we would close the windows to record the vocals and then quickly opened them up for playback. It was over 100 degrees outside. At one point it just got too hot to close the windows and we were recording some flexible tubing that Lorenzo found on the property that when swung in circles made a really interesting whistling sound. We were working on the title track, A Flutter And Some Words. Every time we would push record these birds outside the windows would start singing really lovely melodies very loudly. We decided that they should be on the recordings or rather they decided, so we recorded them and they appear in A Flutter Coda.
TP. What inspires you?
IC. Beginnings and endings; snow, the change of seasons. Driving. Andrei Tarkovsky. Sally Mann. Writing a new song.
TP. The video for your single By The Water shows a tender focus. There is an aura of spirituality and romance to it. Has your family life influenced your vision and your art?
IC. My family is my life. Everything revolves around it. Putting music out into the world only works when it's working in my home life. That's the beauty of having a place you call home, you can live there and create there. This record was written here where I sit now and the video was filmed on a friend's property. It's all close and familiar and unpretentious. There is a romance and spirituality in living and loving your environment.
TP. Why so long between your last release (sixteen years) and now?
IC. I was busy being married and being a mother. My experience of the music business prior to meeting David really put me off it. I was not cut out for that world of Prince. When I was part of that world, way too many things were asked of me that I did not feel comfortable with. I threw myself into domesticity and closed the door to that part of my life. I was content for a while to live vicariously through David's career. When our marriage fell apart, I obviously could no longer live through him so, I had to make some choices for myself, to start over with some entirely new path or pick up where I had left off before getting married. Music is all I really know, so I began my journey back and in so doing realized that there is nothing more fulfilling or gratifying then completing a song.
TP. Have you devised a routine or work method when you write your poetry or the lyrics to a song?
IC. I don't have a method of work. I write when I feel like it. I write when I have something that needs to be said. I am not good at adhering to routine. I wish that I was, I admire people who do.
TP. Are there special things you do to make everyone around you feel at ease during a recording session or a live performance?
IC. There is nothing in particular that I do. I have very calming energy and that goes a long way in a studio environment.
TP. Do you miss special moments from the beginning of your career?
IC. I feel like I am there again in a way. I have a lot of creative energy flowing and everything is new in the way that I am working and trying to get this album out into the world. Meeting Prince was really magical and the whole experience of making the album and the movie was like a fairy-tale. I would never wish to turn back the pages because life continues to be magical and full of wonder for me.
TP. How did you meet Richard Werbowenko?
IC. I met Richard through a friend in Minneapolis. He used to wear his hair in what looked like a big dandelion. I liked him from the moment I first met him. It wasn't long before we formed our band Skyfish and started recording and performing.
TP. Did your collaborations with David Sylvian and Richard Werbowenko in the album Little Girls With 99 Lives and in Ryuichi Sakamoto's Heartbeat influence your current album?
IC. Well, as they say, we are the sum of all of our parts and that music and time in my life is a part of me. I am constantly challenging myself musically and lyrically so in that sense, everything that came before now is an influence.
TP. Tell us about the band Ova and Tommy Roberts. What brought you together?
IC. Tommy Roberts used to own a recording studio in Minneapolis called The Underground. I was in a band called Skyfish with Richard Werbowenko back then and we did some recording at Tommy's studio. Skyfish broke up and I went on to work with Prince and then I married David. I was pretty much out of the music scene altogether when Tommy showed up out of the blue at my door asking me if I would be interested in being in a band with him and Josh Holland. I wasn't sure about it, but after giving it some thought I joined. We named the band Ova. I really loved the music we made. Tommy (who goes by the name Zachary Vex now) is a guitar pedal designer and so there was a lot of great guitar throughout the songs. My soft voice with this heavy guitar and beat-based music was a nice mixture.
TP. Lorenzo Scopelliti, Alessandro Mazzitelli, El Perdido (Frank Verdeja, who designed the album's cover artwork) and Marzio Mirabella came into your world and the synergies between you and these artists bring us a much-anticipated new album and films to accompany the music. Are you bringing your fans closer into your life, sharing your previous experiences through the songs or are you looking to explore musically and visually a new reality to share with them as you evolve? Is this a beautiful intersection between your past and your future?
IC. Not being signed to a label has given me a lot of freedom to be as prolific and creative as I can and want to be. It is wonderful to work with artists who are not in it for the money, but are in it because they believe in what you are doing and they want to be a part of that creative energy. I love people who are generous with their creative energy. I want to keep growing as an artist and keep challenging myself. As long as I keep evolving as a person there will be songs to write. This current album is very different from my Paisley Park album, Little Girl With 99 Lives, Skyfish and Ova but that is the beauty of constantly evolving as a person, your art is bound to evolve as well.

Obama Announces Plan to Honor Sacrifices of National Guard and Reservists as President
U.S. Senator Barack Obama today said that as President, he will honor and recognize the unique sacrifices that come with service in the National Guard and Reserves by ensuring they are deployed responsibly and receive the medical care and benefits they deserve when they return. In his remarks, Obama recalled the story of Iowa's 1st Battalion of the 133rd Infantry Regiment who learned from friends and family back home that their deployment had been extended and recently returned home after 22 months of service in Iraq. Click here for a fact sheet on Senator Obama's plan.
"It's time to use the Guard and Reserves responsibly," Obama said. "No more unpredictable deployments. No more extended tours. No more failures to plan, to communicate down the chain of command, or to reset the equipment that we've left in Iraq. When we've got service-members who have to find out that their tour has been extended in a phone call home, we're not keeping that trust, and we're not keeping this country safe."
Obama said that as President, he will require a period of rest and standard of readiness before Guard troops can be redeployed. He also said that he will elevate the Chief of the National Guard to the rank of a four-star general and make him or her a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. To ensure that Guardsmen and Reservists and their families are taken care of back home, Obama said he will improve mental health care, including screening and treatment for PTSD, and will extend the Family Medical Leave Act so that spouses have time to care for their families when their wife or husband is called up. Finally, Obama said he understands the critical role the Guard and Reserves play in their states, and will work with Governors across the country to ensure they can accomplish their missions back home.
"I will not be a President who sends our Guard off to fight in a misguided war, while telling America's governors to hope that a big snowstorm won't hit next winter, or that a tornado won't come through town. I will not be a President who extends tours for our Guard units overseas, while Americans are stranded on rooftops right here at home. We need to turn the page," Obama said.

Thanks in advance.
Old George replied to laumk7's topic in General ChatHi, the sticks referred to in the article are not faulty, they have been specifically designed to cause damage. It's claimed these sticks are not commercially available (yet). Cheap USB sticks are generally very slow at reading and copying data, but for music playback this should not be an issue. Brand make USB sticks are generally best, and these days fairly cheap to buy.

Old George replied to Old George's topic in General Ford Related DiscussionsI guess it comes down to the local branch, if they have a team of clued up conscientious mechanics then your on to a winner. I'd like to know more about the Stockport branch, but i don't know anyone who has a service plan with them. I like the idea of paying on a monthly basis to spread the cost. But by the same token, my bank balance creeps up slowly each month to offset a single bill. Going back to 1997, i purchased a 1.3 Escort from the Ashton-Under-Lyne branch of Quicks for Ford (now Evans Halshaw) and i had two services done by them, NEVER again. On both services the spark plugs were cleaned and re-gapped, the independents always changed my plugs. On collecting the car after the second service i was told the air filter needed replacing, i argued that THEY should have replaced it on the service only to be informed it would set me back another £12 for them to do it. I replaced it for the cost of £2 and a couple of minutes work.
Old George replied to Old George's topic in General Ford Related DiscussionsReally? I've not heard any negative comments so far, unlike Evans Halshaw who i bought my old Titanium from. So probably better to stick to a good independent garage?
Old George started following Trust Ford.......or Not?
Old George posted a topic in General Ford Related DiscussionsHi Ladies and Gents,.........(am i making you sound like toilets?) Purchased a late 2010 '60 plate' 1.6 Focus Zetec to replace my ageing 56 plate1.6 Titanium last week from the Stockport Trust Ford branch. Salesman offered me membership of the 'Trust Ford service club' four services and MOT's up to 2019 for around £727. I was promised 10% discount on any (overpriced) replacement parts that might be needed, why? Nothing ever goes wrong on a Ford.....Right? Also on the menu is a valet when the car has been serviced, and no doubt a multitude of other deal breaking extra's that in my excitement i've forgot about. Now the question is, do i stick with my trustworthy independent garage that i've used for a few years (and save a good chunk of that 700+ quid) or should i not look a gift horse in the mouth and sign up to the Ford offer pronto? Your views and experiences with the Trust Ford service club please folks. Any of you had any dealings with the Stockport branch, and were they positive or negative experiences? Thanks in advance.
Had the Focus checked today and it was the ABS system self test, so thankfully no problems with it. Thanks for your replies Guys. :)
So it appears to be normal? Thanks guys, just odd that the MK1 and the MK2 Titanium didn't exhibit this behaviour, so i assume the my MK2.5 has a totally new steering/ABS system compared to earlier models? Trust Ford have arranged a courtesy car for Tuesday so i suppose i might as well take mine to be checked just for peace of mind.
Thanks guys, i didn't think it was a major problem, but i didn't have it on my old 90,000 mile 56 plate Titanium. Should i still have it checked to be sure it is fine? And is this 'thud' normal on the later models when it didn't occur on the earlier models?

Shelby County could get a shot of good economic news in the midst of a rollercoaster week on Wall Street.
Alton Webb Associates will present a development plan at Tuesday's 6:30 p.m. Triple S Planning Commission meeting at the Stratton Center.
The plan, said Lee Webb, will call for a building with offices and a warehouse at the corner of Mount Vernon Drive and Hudson Boulevard in Hi-Point Industrial Park.
While many believe that backpacks with wheels are the best way for young students to combat heavy loads of homework, that's not always the case.
Several schools and school districts across the country have banned the backpacks because they clog up hallways, don't fit in lockers and cause general trouble when students run down the halls dragging them after they've tipped over from going too fast.
And that's also the case in Shelby County.
With a little help, Debbie and Joe Brewer are hoping to make their son's 21st birthday his best ever.
The Brewers, who live in Columbus, Ohio, but are Shelby County natives, are bringing their middle son, Jacob, here to water ski at her parents' home on Guist Creek Lake.
"We all grew up on the water, and all of us started skiing at an early age," Debbie Brewer said. "My brother, John [Crush], when all the kids turned one, would put them on his lap and take them skiing, whether they liked it or not."
4-H displays at state fair
will have lots of competition
At the Kentucky State Fair 4-H members from across the state showcase their talents in speeches, demonstrations and judging competitions in the West Hall of the Kentucky Exposition Center. Visitors can view more than 5,000 projects on display that encompass a variety of skills and hobbies including textiles, horticulture and arts and crafts.
Address: 222 7th St., Shelbyville
School may start on Wednesday, but for parents, students and some local businesses, the year already is well under way, with shoppers starting early to stock up on the supply lists teachers now provide long before the first bell rings.
Two big sources of school supplies in Shelby County are Walmart and Kroger, and managers at both stores say shoppers have been getting an early start this year.
When some Shelby County magistrates expressed dissatisfaction last week with how their new district boundaries might look after the ongoing redistricting process was complete, Shelby County Judge-Executive Rob Rothenburger said they were going to "roll up their shirt sleeves" and work out those problems.
And that's just what they did Tuesday night at the Stratton Center in a workshop that delivered a new district map that met everyone's satisfaction.
"I'm really happy with it," District 3 Magistrate Allen Ruble said.
Two members of a Shelby County family remain hospitalized in Florida, recovering from a devastating crash that killed Carolyn Phillips and her 13-year-old son, Devin Miller.
Victor Phillips, 27, and Jordan Miller, 10, are under care at Tallahassee Memorial Hospital, but Jordan's twin brother, Seth, got to come home to Shelbyville on Thursday, said Uley Washburn, Victor Phillips' stepfather.
A couple of weeks ago you could have learned a lot about a person by asking them a simple question: "I was watching the news today and was wondering, do you think they'll reach a deal?"
Now some people who follow the political scene would've likely assumed you were talking about the debt-ceiling debate going on in Congress at the time, and answered accordingly.
A man living illegally in Shelby County has been sentenced to 46 months in federal prison for returning to the United States after being deported.
Federal charges were handed down against Jacinto Lopez-Medina, 31, by the U.S. Attorney's Office and the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and he was sentenced Aug. 10 in federal court in Frankfort.

Type of Document Master's Thesis Author Upadhyaya, Kailash Author's Email Address email@example.com URN etd-07152005-092326 Title Wafer Level Chip Scale Packaging Using Wafer Bonder Degree Master of Science in Electrical Engineering (M.S.E.E.) Department Electrical & Computer Engineering Advisory Committee
Advisor Name Title Pratul K. Ajmera Committee Chair Bingqing Wei Committee Member Jin-Woo Choi Committee Member Keywords
- glass etching
- anodic bonding
- wafer bonder
- silicon etching
Date of Defense 2005-07-12 Availability unrestricted AbstractAn in-house processing capability is developed in this research for silicon-glass bonding for microfabrication and wafer level chip scale packaging (WLCSP) using a wafer bonder. New masking technology for wet etching of glass to a depth of more than 430 µm is reported in this research work along with development of an anodic bonding process that permits electrical feedthroughs for connections to outside world.
Three novel masks were developed in this work for deep wet etching of glass. They were multilayers of metals Mo/Cr/Au (mask 1) and Cr/Au/electroplated Ni (mask 2) both in combination with 20 µm thick AZ® P4620 photoresist and anodically bonded silicon (mask 3). Etch depths greater than 600 µm in glass has been achieved using anodically bonded silicon mask 3 above. It may be currently the only method available to achieve etch depths of 1 mm in glass. Earlier barrier of 300 µm etch depth in glass using multilayer metal mask has effectively been broken in this work with an etch depth of 430 µm achieved using electroplated Ni mask 2) above. A high value of 0.88 for the aspect ratio, defined as the ratio of the vertical etch depth to the lateral etch distance, was achieved using mask 1) above.
The problem of etched surface roughness observed in glass with undiluted HF etching has been alleviated by use of a combination of 50:5:1 by volume HF:HCl:HNO3.
Etch depths of 355 µm has been achieved in silicon using 45 % KOH solution at 50 °C with 1 µm thick oxide mask. The above etch parameters also resulted in smooth etched mirror like surfaces, sharp edges in etched pits and deep trenches in silicon. The decontaminated etched glass and silicon substrates were aligned in-situ and bonded using an AML 402 wafer bonder. The corner areas of the glass wafer were diced to expose the metal lines permitting electrical communication from the anodically bonded packaged chip to the outside world. The concept of WLCSP using anodic bonding has been developed and demonstrated in this research.

Investigators conducted a lengthy interview with the Fredricksons in mid-January on condition that nothing they said would be used against them, in the case stemming from the deaths of three sweat lodge attendees last October. The couple went to work for Ray in 2005 at his Carlsbad, Calif.-based company — James Ray International — and took part in the retreat near Sedona, Ariz. that led to Ray being charged with manslaughter.
Photo: Liz Neuman died after sweat lodge incident.
Megan Fredrickson said people who were vomiting, unresponsive and unconscious raised no red flags with her because Ray had explained those responses were possibilities. She told authorities that her experience with sweat lodges was limited to the ones led by Ray, and she never took it upon herself to research them or find out why people would pass out.
"Ultimately the plan is we never really had a plan for the extent of what happened," said Josh Fredrickson. "Call paramedics, I think is the plan." The staff never was instructed to call 911, he said, but Ray appreciated that someone had done so.
Prosecutors contend Ray recklessly crammed participants into a 400-square-foot sweat lodge and chided them for wanting to leave, even as people were vomiting, getting burned by hot rocks, and lying lifeless on the ground. Public records show a pattern of illnesses at prior Ray-led events that he largely ignored.
Ray has pleaded not guilty to three counts of manslaughter. He is being held in a Yavapai County, Ariz., jail on a $5 million bond.

Chemotherapy for Liver Cancer
- How Chemotherapy Is Administered
Chemotherapy drugs are generally administered in three ways:
- By mouth in the form of a pill you swallow
- By injection
- Locally (directly to the tumor site)
Injection methods include:
- Intra-arterial (IA): into an artery
- Intramuscular (IM): into a muscle
- Intravenous (IV): into a vein
- Subcutaneous (SubQ): into the skin
Local/direct methods include:
- Intracavitary: in the cavity (or space) where your tumor had been prior to surgery
- Interstitial: into body tissue
- Intraperitoneal: into your abdomen or peritoneal cavity (intestines, liver, stomach, ovaries)
- Intrathecal: into the space between the meninges
- Intratumoral: into the tumor
- Intraventicular: into a ventricle
- Convection-enhanced delivery: into your tumor using gravity or controlled flow
Note: This web content focuses on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common type of primary liver cancer.
Chemotherapy is a form of cancer treatment where high-powered medications are used to kill cancer cells. It's a systemic approach to cancer treatment, where drugs are delivered through your bloodstream, targeting cancer cells throughout your body.
My hope is that we will find a cure for cancer. And short of that, my next hope is a treatment that will extend life and maintain quality of life so that the patient can achieve whatever their hopes and wishes and desires may be.
Scott & White's Approach
Scott & White's mission to provide personalized, comprehensive care is the foundation for our chemotherapy program. Our approach at Scott & White is in individualizing therapy.
Our medical oncologists take meticulous care to determine which chemotherapy drug or drugs are best for you. Several factors impact their decision, including the type, location and stage of your specific tumor and your overall medical condition.
How Chemotherapy Is Used to Treat Cancer
Chemotherapy is infrequently used to treat HCC. However, in some cases your Integrated Care Team may recommend chemotherapy in addition to or instead of other treatments for your HCC.
Chemotherapy is a form of cancer treatment where drugs are injected, given orally or through an IV, to keep your cancer from spreading. Often chemotherapy drugs are used in combination to attack cancer cells. It's usually given in cycles over several months.
While there is one chemotherapy drug recently approved for use with HCC, there are several drugs currently being studied to determine their effectiveness for HCC.
Side Effects of Chemotherapy
Each chemotherapy drug is different and each person's reaction to it can vary. At Scott & White, your medical oncologist will see you through treatment and help you manage any side effects.
Here are some common side effects of chemotherapy drugs for cancer of the liver:
- Fatigue
- Hair loss
- Mouth sores
- Loss of appetite
- Bruising or bleeding
- Nausea and vomiting
- Diarrhea or constipation
- Lowered resistance to infection
For more information about possible side effects, please talk to your medical oncologist.

QUEUES of traffic in and out of Worcester stretched for more than a mile last night when the city centre ground to a near standstill.
Frustrated motorists battled with congestion until about 8pm after emergency repair works and a traffic light failure caused chaos on the roads.
One lane of College Street was coned off to enable engineers from Severn Trent Water to re-instate the condition of the pavement and road following work the body had carried out at a previous date.
Meanwhile, a traffic light failure at the Sidbury junction added to drivers' woes.
At one point, the jam stretched from the city centre to the Oak Apple pub in Spetchley Road.
Driver Freya Leng described the state of traffic heading out of the city centre.
She said: "It was nose to tail all the way along from Hylton Road.
"It was like gridlock near The Butts and all the way up past the cathedral. There didn't seem any reason for it."
Reader Becky Sutcliffe said queues were "huge" on London Road heading into the city centre at 8pm.
She said: "This road is getting worse - there are constant queues going out of town every morning and queues at peak evening times when people are trying to get home."
Jon Fraser, Worcestershire County Council's highways manager, thanked motorists for their patience.
He said: "The build up of traffic on London Road on Wednesday evening was caused by traffic light failure at the Sidbury junction in addition to urgent re-instatement works being carried out by Severn Trent Water on nearby College Street.
"Both works have now been completed. Highways engineers attended the traffic lights promptly and they are now fully operational again.
"On occasions like this, we have no option but to rectify an issue as soon as possible and we would like to thank motorists for their patience."
A spokeswoman at Severn Trent said engineers were called in at the request of the highways department and she apologised for any traffic delays caused.

If the warm spring weather tempts you to jump in Lake Lanier — don't.
"You can't judge a book by its cover. The flowers may be blooming and it's 70 degrees, but the water is still very cold and that can be very, very dangerous," said Hall County Fire Marshal Scott Cagle, also a board member for Safe Kids, a coalition aimed at preventing accidental injuries.
Cagle said despite the warm weather Friday, the water temperature in Lake Lanier was just 56 degrees.
"That is way too cold to be doing any swimming," Cagle said. "You can die of hypothermia in 50-degree water within an hour."
Boating and other water activities can be especially dangerous for nonswimmers.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, drowning is the second-leading cause of unintentional, injury-related death for children ages 1 to 14.
Natural bodies of water like Lake Lanier are deceptive because the depth of the water can change dramatically within a few steps of the shore.
According to the CDC, most drownings among those age 15 or older occur in natural water settings.
"Especially with all this rain we've had, everyone should know the lake is at full pool. Places you may have been able to touch the ground before you may not be able to," Cagle said.
The lake's first drowning of 2011 occurred last week when Roy Belrose, 66, of Buford was found in the lake by a neighbor.
Even for those who can swim, cold water is dangerous.
"When your body is 98.6 degrees at a normal temperature, you shock it with water that is 50 degrees," Cagle said. "Your body is not expecting that and you lose body heat faster in the water than you do on land."
Cagle said people who plan to be out on the lake fishing or boating need to follow all boating regulations and keep life jackets on board. He also recommended swimming and CPR classes.
"We just want people to prepared for the worst," Cagle said.
It takes water much longer than air to heat up, said Brian Lynn, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.
It's typically the end of May before the water is warm enough for people to swim, he said.
"When the air temperature starts warming up, the lake water responds," Lynn said. "It takes a tremendous amount of heat to change the temperature of a volume of water. Lake Lanier is a sizable lake — is the biggest lake in the boundaries of Georgia — and it also has a significant depth. That all contributes to the amount of heat it takes to warm it up."
Lynn said swimmers may not have to wait too much longer to swim safely.
"If the trend continues with the warmer temperatures we've had in March, the lake will warm up quicker for sure," Lynn said.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 17/2/2014 (1279 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
SOCHI, Russia -- Brittany Schussler got caught up in the moment and made a mistake. She's not a monster and she's not a political activist. She's a speedskater and a wife and a Winnipegger.
We need to stand behind her and support her.
Schussler posed for a photo with a political leader and then tweeted the picture. That's it.
Was Vladimir Putin the wrong guy to smile beside in a picture? You bet. Was it a regrettable choice? You know it and so does Schussler, as evidenced by her taking down the selfie from her Twitter account.
Does all this add up to Schussler being cruel and against human rights? That's a bit of a stretch, no?
As Canadians, we chose to send our athletes to Russia to take part and support these Games put on by Putin. If Schussler is guilty, so is the rest of Team Canada and our Canadian Olympic Committee. So am I. So are you for watching the Olympics on TV.
If we're going to apply a black-and-white standard to Schussler, we need to do the same for one another.
Schussler didn't think through her actions and she's paid a price for it, but the emotional cost has been unfair and over the top. She's saddened and disappointed. I wanted to speak with her Monday, and while she was agreeable to the conversation, Speed Skating Canada was not.
In an exchange of direct messages trying to arrange an interview, Schussler did say she wanted to explain she is a "nice and caring person" and "would never intentionally hurt or offend anyone."
I believe her. She's been kind and generous and open the handful of times I've interviewed her. Following her disappointing race in the 1,000 metres she told me, "I wish I could have skated better for Canada."
Shouldn't we save our outrage for someone a little more destructive?
Elvis Stojko, who knows a thing or two about being in the public spotlight and the traps of social media, thinks so.
Stojko came to Schussler's defence Monday. Stojko's wife was also at Canada Olympic House during Putin's tour and was attacked on Twitter for referring to him as the Honourable Vladimir Putin. Stojko waded into the battle to defend his wife, and on Monday he spoke to the Free Press.
"It's tough being in this position and in the spotlight, because the athletes are here to do their job, to train and compete and be focused," said Stojko, a three-time world champion in figure skating and the owner of two Olympic silver medals. "Then when you want to cut loose and relax a little bit, you see a political figure, we're in his country and we've been invited here. There are certain aspects to the laws here that we won't agree with, whether it be human rights and so forth. We can speak about them in certain forums and there was a forum for people to speak before we got here. But we're at the Olympic Games now to talk about sport.
"It's up to the discretion of the individual athlete to decide how they want to go about it. In this particular situation, just because you pose with someone doesn't mean you agree with what they're doing. He was invited into Canada House and he was there to invite us into his country.
"Out of respect for him, and he runs the country, they're being respectful to him. They're following etiquette. There's a forum to speak your mind on certain issues. They can speak their mind, but this isn't really the place for it. This is about the Olympics and bringing everyone together and promoting harmony and peace. That's the whole point. The opening ceremonies were all about harmony and peace. We want to try and show the positives. The biggest thing, you can't fix hate with hate."
I've made mistakes on Twitter and I've deleted them from my account. I've also been insulted and had my character, abilities and intellect attacked. I'm good with it. It comes with the territory.
Putin's anti-gay laws are abhorrent. I have gay friends and family that I love. I want for them the same rights that are afforded me.
Brittany Schussler doesn't stand in the way of that and aiming hate in her direction is just more hate. And Stojko is right: That doesn't fix anything.

St. Kateri Tekakwitha Mass & Feast
Saturday, April 22, 2017
Mass will be at 5:00 PM
Feast follows the Mass
St. Lucy's Church
432 Gifford Street
Syracuse, NY 13204
This is a Native American Liturgy in celebration of our Saint Kateri Tekakwitha. A Mass Booklet with responses in Mohawk Phonetics and English is available to the congregation so everyone can participate. A Feast (gratis) which is an extension of the Mass follows in the church basement.
The St. Kateri Committee is blessed with a 1st Class Relic of St. Kateri Tekakwitha. This Relic will be made available with a committee member in the St. Kateri Chapel after the Mass for anyone needing intercessions through the Relic.
The Chapel is located in the room off to the right of the main altar..
The St. Kateri Tekakwitha Committee asks that everyone who attends the Mass and Feast bring donations of a different kind to the Church with you. The "Food Pantry" at St. Lucy's Church is in need of cleaning supplies and personal hygiene supplies instead of food items. If you shop a "two for one" sale, you could keep one item for yourself and donate the other. Also, there are supplies that can be purchased at the Dollar Stores. Pampers & other baby supplies, Laundry soap, toilet paper, toothpaste, toothbrushes, deodorant, Lysol, shampoo, body soap, women's feminine hygiene products, etc. cannot be purchased with food stamps thereby making it difficult for those in need to obtain these items.
Your donations can be dropped off in the back of the church.
Your generosity is sincerely appreciated. Thank you.

Today In Terribleness: Kids, Dad Gang Up To Sue Mom For "Bad Mothering"
Michael Lohan ain't got nothing on Kimberly Garrity in the bad parenting department. The many grave and terrifying abuses inflicted upon her children include a sending a birthday card without money inside, failing to send care packages to her son at college, and calling her daughter at midnight on Homecoming to tell her to come home. She even forced one of her kids to wear a seat belt.
Clearly you can understand why her two children, Steven, 23, and Kathryn, 20, sued Garrity for $50,000 citing "bad mothering." The children filed a lawsuit against Garrity with their father, Steven A. Miner, in 2009. Miner and his ex-wife divorced in 1995 after a decade of marriage. According to Garrity's lawyer, this frivolous lawsuit was all about payback for the divorce and humiliating his ex-wife by making it look like her own children hate her. (Is it just me or does this sound like something Michael Lohan would do?) As if psychological manipulation is not f**ked up enough, Miner is a lawyer and is offering his legal services for free along with hiring two additional lawyers. On top of humiliating their mother and his ex-wife, the delightful Miner family also seems to be trying to bankrupt her with legal bills.
Fortunately, the judge presiding over the case has dismissed the lawsuit, making Garrity free again to send birthday cards and insist on good automobile-riding safety. Garrity has magnanimously claimed she still loves her children, even after this foolishness. Damn, those family reunions are going to be awkward.

J.K. Rowling, the creator of Harry Potter, has joined the battle to keep Scotland in the United Kingdom, donating $US1.6 million to the cause and writing a lengthy plea on her website for votes against Scottish independence.
Ms Rowling, who was born in England but has lived in Scotland for 21 years, said that "if the majority of people in Scotland want independence I truly hope that it is a resounding success.
"While a few of our fiercer nationalists might like to drive me forcibly over the border after reading this, I'd prefer to stay and contribute to a country that has given me more than I can easily express."
Scotland will vote in a hotly contested referendum on September 18 whether to separate from Britain and seek its own path as a separate nation.
The latest poll, by TNS, shows that 42 per cent plan to vote to remain in the UK, with 30 per cent supporting independence and 28 per cent undecided. The 12 percentage-point gap was unchanged from the month before.
Ms Rowling said she believed that both Scotland, and what would be left of the United Kingdom, would suffer economically from a separation, but that Scotland, with declining oil reserves, would probably suffer more.
She reminded voters in Scotland that when RBS (the Royal Bank of Scotland) had to be "bailed out, membership of the union saved us from economic catastrophe and I worry about whether North Sea oil can, as we are told by the 'Yes' campaign, sustain and even improve Scotland's standard of living".
Ms Rowling wrote:
I … know that there is a fringe of nationalists who like to demonise anyone who is not blindly and unquestionably pro-independence and I suspect, notwithstanding the fact that I've lived in Scotland for twenty-one years and plan to remain here for the rest of my life, that they might judge me 'insufficiently Scottish' to have a valid view.
It is true that I was born in the West Country and grew up on the Welsh border and while I have Scottish blood on my mother's side, I also have English, French and Flemish ancestry.
However, when people try to make this debate about the purity of your lineage, things start getting a little Death Eaterish for my taste. By residence, marriage, and out of gratitude for what this country has given me, my allegiance is wholly to Scotland and it is in that spirit that I have been listening to the months of arguments and counter-arguments.
… I've heard it said that 'we've got to leave, because they'll punish us if we don't', but my guess is that if we vote to stay, we will be in the heady position of the spouse who looked like walking out, but decided to give things one last go.
… If we leave, though, there will be no going back. This separation will not be quick and clean: it will take microsurgery to disentangle three centuries of close interdependence, after which we will have to deal with three bitter neighbours. I doubt that an independent Scotland will be able to bank on its ex-partners' fond memories of the old relationship once we've left. The rest of the UK will have had no say in the biggest change to the Union in centuries, but will suffer the economic consequences.
