I'm new to tableless tables, and I'm trying to create a layout for my website. I made it work, but don't think I did it right. Even though it does work, are there any suggestions to maybe clean it up a little??
Here's the CSS:
width: 620px;
position: relative;
overflow: auto;
margin-right: 70px;
.cl-name { position: relative; float: left; width: 260px; border-top: 1px dotted #000000; border-bottom: 1px dotted #000000; color: #B71000; font: bold 12px/150% Arial, sans-serif; text-align: center; margin-bottom: 5px;}
.cr-city { position: relative; float: left; width: 260px; border-top: 1px dotted #000000; border-bottom: 1px dotted #000000; color: #B71000; font: bold 14px/150% Arial, sans-serif; text-align: center; margin-bottom: 5px;}
.cr-info { position: relative; float: left; clear: left; width: 260px; font: bold 10px Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; text-align: center;}
.cr-text { position: relative; float: right; width: 340px; font-size: 12px Arial, sans-serif; text-align: justify; margin-left: 20px;}
.cr-nav { width: 320px; position: relative; float: right; text-align: center; margin: 8px 0px 50px 0px;}
Here's the sample:

APOPKA

Held at the Rock Springs Bar and Grill, 4939 Rock Springs Road, and limited to vehicles 1982 and older. There's three trophies randomly awarded, DJ and karaoke, 50/50 drawing, $2 beer specials, and food is available.

Second Sunday of the Month
2:00 PM - 6:00 PM

A layout like that might get hard to manage as the site gets bigger. first consider the whole page design, then work out the best way to organize things. If you have columns, it's best to wrap each column in a div to help things stay in place.
At the moment, there doesn't seem to be a role for position: relative on any of those divs.
tableless tables
Just to be clear, if your data is tabular (there is semantic/contetxual meaning in the columns/rows.. then use TABLE), for the most part you will be able to stile it to look whichever way you want with CSS anyway.
That beign said...you DONT need to give every element position:relative; just those that you intend to display or those who have AP'ed descendants which you want position relative to the afore mentioned elements ( not of this is present in your small sample)
Also, semantically, your navigation should be a UL.
hope that helps a lil.
Thanks for the help! After reading both your comments, CSS makes a little more sense to me. And especially the tip about the navigation! Thanks again, and I'm sure I'll be back soon!

Tru Life has already had an interesting career. It has been an enticing one, filled with feuds, fights and rhymes, but the rapper has yet to release a full fledged mainstream debut album. Recently, he spoke on his deal with Roc-A-Fella and his friendship with Jay-Z [click to read].
"I was Roc-A-Fella all day first off, let's get that clear," he told XXLMag.com. "I signed to Roc La Familia but I was always Roc-A-Fella. I was just Latin, but when that folded it was easy, they just moved me over to Roc-A-Fella."
Later, he added that Jay spoke to him to let him know he was leaving his position at Def Jam before he made it public.
"I'm a smart business man so when I found out Jay-Z was gonna leave – 'cause I got the heads up, cause that's my big homie – I didn't wanna stay there either at Def Jam."
He went on to speak on the matter with more details, explaining more about his contract and his previous offers.
"As far as Def Jam is concerned, I didn't wanna be in an upside down situation. …I had seven deals on the table before I took that deal and I only took it because of Jay-Z. So I felt like if he's leaving, I wanna leave too…It was also in my contract that if they didn't put out my album, they had to give me $300,000. So being the smart businessman that I am I took that $300,000, they did it under the radar so nobody really knew, but I been was off of Def Jam for a while. We did it before Jay-Z actually left."
Furthermore, he added that he is still a part of The Roc, despite being off of Def Jam. He noted a recent meeting where both had fun in Las Vegas.
"I left Def Jam, but I'm still with Roc-A-Fella, I'm still with Jay-Z. Me and Jay was just out in Vegas balling out, spending stacks. You can ask Jay."
No album details have been finalized or made public yet.

If she told you the first time that she didnt like you, she probably still doesnt! From what ive read, it sounds like she is just stringing you along, she know she has power over you cause she knows that you like her and will do anything for her! You have become her backup when shes lonely or have no one! Even though you guys are close friends, you should clear the lines and only do things with her that friends do and not what couples do! Also there is a possibility that she probably does not know that she is stringing you along and only likes the attention you are giving her, that is why she is always acting like she likes you! So it is better that you move on and find someone that is the right person for you! Being strung along will only leave you feeling hurt when she finds someone else! I suggest you stop talking to her for a while, and only talk to her when she messages you! Dont ever message her first! Also start thinking or have the mindset that someone is out there for you, who is better than her, someone who will love you for the rest of your life! Ultimately your happiness should be the number one goal for you! I hope this helps!

Nissan Motor Co. is rolling out an electric-powered small van that a number of transportation experts would consider a good fit for congested U.S. cities. But for now the vehicle, called the e-NV200, is slated for European streets.
The van, which has a drivetrain similar to that of the Nissan Leaf electric car, is aimed at cutting costs and emissions in the commercial-van segment. It is designed to carry cargo or people without generating exhaust or noise pollution.
If the name sounds familiar it is because the standard version of NV200 recently entered service as a taxi in New York. The van was supposed to become the city's standard taxi or "taxi of tomorrow" under a program promoted by former mayor Michael Bloomberg. But legal action by taxi fleet owners put plans for a single model of cab on hold.
Nissan said the e-NV200 will go on sale in June and will be available in a number of trim levels including a luxurious passenger version called the Evalia. While aimed mainly at commercial customers from taxi fleets to delivery companies, the electric van will also be available consumers.
The e-NV200 can travel about 105 miles on a charge and has the same payload capacity as the gasoline-powered version. Its battery can be recharged overnight using a standard household outlet, or a special higher-output fast charger can do the job in less than an hour.

Wake Tech Celebrates 50 Years of Excellence
January 17th, 2013
College Launches Year-Long Anniversary Celebration
RALEIGH, N.C. (January 16, 2013) — When 1963 dawned, JFK was in the White House, gasoline was 29 cents a gallon, and the Beatles were becoming a worldwide phenomenon. Here in Raleigh, a new kind of higher education facility was opening its doors – one designed to train a new generation in the technical skills needed for the region's emerging industries. Fifty years later, Wake Tech is still leading the way in state-of-the-art training and education, with a scope that has expanded to include multiple campuses and more than 66,000 students. As 2013 begins, Wake Tech is launching a year-long series of special events and projects to celebrate its 50 years of service to the community.
Wake Tech officially opened its doors on October 7, 1963, as the W.W. Holding Industrial Education Center. It began with 34 full-time students in automobile mechanics, radio and TV repair, electrical installation and maintenance, and drafting. An additional 270 students took classes at community sites around Wake County, including many in the college's nursing program at Memorial Hospital (now WakeMed) in Raleigh.
Celebratory events are planned throughout this year, leading up to the October anniversary date. The first annual "Road Scholars" 5K Run/Walk will take place in March, the annual Culinary Arts Showcase (this year's theme: "Golden Moments") in April, a Health Fair, community service projects, a "Wobble" dance-off, open house events at various Wake Tech campuses, and much more.
Wake Tech has created a special website (http://50years.waketech.edu) for the anniversary and has connected with alumni from each of its past five decades. Videos on the site include some of the first Wake Tech graduates and all three college presidents. The site also features historical information, a timeline, and a calendar of the special events planned for the coming year.
Also marking Wake Tech's 50th anniversary is the launch of a new brand identity for the college, developed over the past year in partnership with VisionPoint Marketing in Raleigh. The new college logo features a torch, symbolizing the role Wake Tech plays in helping students find their way along the truly life-changing path of higher education. The new tagline, "Lead the way," speaks to students' ability to take charge of their lives as they learn and grow, as well as to lead and inspire others. It also alludes to the innovation and future focus that have been a hallmark of Wake Tech programs and services for 50 years.
The 50th anniversary coincides with Wake Tech's major gifts campaign, called "The Ripple Effect." The campaign, which currently has a goal of $12 million, is raising funds to support student success, staff and faculty innovation and technology. The college hopes to build community awareness and support for the campaign throughout the anniversary year. To learn more, visit http://therippleeffectcampaign.org.

Discussion in 'Android Devices' started by gspvj, Nov 7, 2012.
via blue tooth 100mb file frm glaxay Y to nexus7 failing .what could be the reason?
Not an answer, but I use a Windows 7 PC and USB ... no problems copying mp4 files over a gig. Perhaps that is an option using the PC from one, then to the other?
Make sure the devices are not falling asleep during the transfer. I use the File Expert app and it seems to work just great, transfer of a file that big could be a problem for blue tooth. Better to connect with USB to a PC and copy in 2 steps, Galaxy to PC to N7.

Chapelwood Seed Catching Tray
This product can be found in: Bird Feeders: All | Chapelwood Wildlife | Seed & Mealworm Bird Feeders | Wild Bird & Garden Wildlife: All
Chapelwood Seed Catching Tray
Product Code: LT0392D
DescriptionThis Chapelwood Seed Catching Tray catches bird feeding debris, saving any wastage for re-use. Manufactured from polished stainless steel, it is suitable for use with Chapelwood Heavy Duty and Ultimate Seed Feeders. Incorporating drainage holes, this tray is easily cleaned and durable and also features a fold back hook for easy refilling.
Dimensions: 27 x 27 x 3cm high
With disappearing habitats and climatic changes the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) and the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO) both recommend the year-round feeding of garden birds to maintain a healthy and viable flock of native species. Feeding requirements are greater in late autumn and winter when natural resources are in shorter supply and high energy levels are also needed during spring when birds are busy breeding and raising young. Once you have established a feeding regime - don�t disappoint them, they will depend on you!

Brilliant idea posted on 10/12/2012 by Dasie
This very well made and saves my lawn being trampled by the larger birds picking up the scraps. On the the downside, it seemed to scare the birds. It took a several weeks before the birds were prepared to feed at the feeder with a very polished seed tray attached.

PITTSBURGH (AP) – Utility workers in the Pittsburgh area have approved a new contract.
The Utility Workers Union of America Local 537 said in a Saturday release the vote ends a two-month strike by about 150 union workers at four sites in the Pittsburgh area.
The union had been protesting the labor practices of Pennsylvania-American Water and its New Jersey-based parent company, American Water. Local 537 said workers went without wage increases for four years in order to win a contract. The new contract provides significant "catch-up" wage increases.
Pennsylvania-American Water and Local 537 said they're both pleased the contract is resolved, and they look forward to working together.

Touchdown, Thomas!
Michael Fabiano | Tags: Deuce McAllister, pierre thomas
Pierre Thomas, who's lost goal-line carries to Deuce McAllister and Mike Bell, finally finds the end zone on a 2-yard run. He's on pace for a monster stat line in what's become a laugher in Detroit.
In St. Louis, the 49ers offense looks dreadful. Despite the favorable matchup, Shaun Hill has thrown for 68 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions. DeShaun Foster and Issac Bruce have been held to next to nothing as well.

First and 10: The sweetest thing
Published: October 13th, 2011 | Tags: First and 10, Calvin Johnson, Carson Palmer, Chicago Bears, Gil Brandt, Jason LaCanfora, Michael Fabiano, Michael Lombardi, Mike McCarthy, Pat Kirwan, Pete Carroll, Tim Hightower, Tony Romo, Walter Payton, Washington Redskins
Few players in the history of football are as universally beloved as the late Chicago Bears running back Walter Payton. Enjoy the legendary skills and grace of the man called "Sweetness" in the premiere of "A Football Life: Walter Payton" Thursday at 10 p.m. ET on NFL Network, and click here for a sneak preview.
Here's what else is on tap for Thursday:
- Tune into NFL Network's "Total Access" Thursday at 7 p.m. ET and catch all-world Detroit Lions receiver Calvin Johnson. And don't miss Washington Redskins running back Tim Hightower on "NFL Fantasy Live" at 2 p.m. ET.
- When the schedule makers met, they probably didn't see Sunday's 49ers-Lions affair as a marquee game. Jason La Canfora analyzes that suddenly relevant showdown and the rest of Sunday's matchups in his weekly column. Plus, get ready for all the Week 6 action at NFL.com's exclusive Game Center.
- Pete Carroll and Carson Palmer are old friends. Could they be reunited in Seattle? That's just one of the moves Gil Brandt suggests should happen before next week's trade deadline.
- Mike McCarthy was one of two coaches to suffer from conversion confusion in Week 5. Michael Lombardi provides some insight into when teams should and shouldn't go for two.
- The league is committed to growing the game overseas, but could an NFL franchise ever be based outside of the country? Our experts debate if and when it could happen.
- The shotgun formation has taken over the NFL, with more teams using it than ever before. But Pat Kirwan suggests that coaches are leaving something on the table with their reliance on the 'gun.
- Tony Romo could be in for a big game Sunday when the Cowboys visit the Patriots, a matchup that gives you a great reason to start him on your fantasy team, Michael Fabiano writes.
- Don't forget to log onto NFL.com to vote for the FedEx Air & Ground Players of the Week, the Pepsi Rookie of the Week, and the GMC Never Say Never Moment of the Week.
- Come up with names for the week's most exciting plays, and tweet your way into the NFL history books. We'll pick our favorites, and let users pick the final winner each week.

|statement of John H. Pendleton.
Recognizing the limits of military power in today's security environment, the Department of Defense (DOD) is collaborating with other U.S. federal agencies to achieve its missions around the world. DOD's combatant commands, such as U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) and U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM), play key roles in this effort. Both aim to build partner nation capacity and perform humanitarian assistance, while standing ready to perform a variety of military operations. Among its missions, SOUTHCOM supports U.S. law enforcement and intelligence agencies in the Americas and Caribbean in disrupting illicit trafficking and narco-terrorism. As DOD's newest command, AFRICOM works with U.S. diplomacy and development agencies on activities such as maritime security and pandemic response efforts. Today GAO issued reports that the subcommittee requested on SOUTHCOM (GAO-10-801) and AFRICOM (GAO-10-794), which in part evaluated how each collaborates with U.S. interagency partners. This testimony summarizes that work and provides observations from ongoing work on U.S. counterpiracy efforts by focusing on 3 key areas essential for interagency collaboration.

We've heard for a while now that 3D printing would be an important part of the future of sneakers, but that time may be closer than we realize. Recreus already has a wearable model (their second) that's been made entirely by 3D printer.
The shoe utilizes a material known as FILAFLEX, which, while having resemblence to a known sneaker brand name, is actually the maker of what's "becoming the most elastic filament on the market." Check out the Sneakerbot II first, then the original design at the bottom of the page.
If you happen to have the necessary hardware and materials, you can download and print your own here. Let us know what you think in the comments. How long do you think it will be until we start seeing the leaders in the sneaker world start directly utilizing the technology?

Seq magic
The innocent-looking
seq operator causes all manner of mayhem in GHC. This page summarises the issues.
The baseline position
Our initial story was that
(seq e1 e2) meant precisely
case e1 of { _ -> e2 }
Indeed this was
seq's inlining. This translation validates some important rules
* `seq` is strict in both its arguments * (e1 `seq` e2) e3 ===> e1 `seq` (e2 e3) * case (e1 `seq` e2) of alts ===> e1 `seq` (case e2 of alts) * value `seq` e ===> e
Here are some of the problems that showed up. See
Note [Deguaring seq] in
Trac #1031. Consider
f x y = x `seq` (y `seq` (# x,y #))
[CoreSyn let/app invariant] means that, other things being equal, because
the argument to the outer
seq has an unlifted type, we'll use call-by-value thus:
f x y = case (y
seq(# x,y #)) of v -> x
But that is bad for two reasons:
(a) we now evaluate y before x, and (b) we can't bind v to an unboxed pair
Seq is very, very special! So we recognise it right here, and desugar to
case x of _ -> case y of _ -> (# x,y #)
Note [Desugaring seq (2)] cf Trac #2273
let chp = case b of { True -> fst x; False -> 0 } in chp
Here the seq is designed to plug the space leak of retaining (snd x) for too long.
If we rely on the ordinary inlining of seq, we'll get
let chp = case b of { True -> fst x; False -> 0 } case chp of _ { I# -> ...chp... }
But since chp is cheap, and the case is an alluring contet, we'll inline chp into the case scrutinee. Now there is only one use of chp, so we'll inline a second copy. Alas, we've now ruined the purpose of the seq, by re-introducing the space leak:
case (case b of {True -> fst x; False -> 0}) of
I# _ -> ...case b of {True -> fst x; False -> 0}...
We can try to avoid doing this by ensuring that the binder-swap in the case happens, so we get his at an early stage:
case chp of chp2 { I# -> ...chp2... }
But this is fragile. The real culprit is the source program. Perhaps we should have said explicitly
let !chp2 = chp in ...chp2...
But that's painful. So the code here does a little hack to make seq more robust: a saturated application of 'seq' is turned *directly* into the case expression, thus:
seqe2 ==> case x of x -> e2 -- Note shadowing! e1
seqe2 ==> case x of _ -> e2
So we desugar our example to:
let chp = case b of { True -> fst x; False -> 0 } case chp of chp { I# -> ...chp... }
And now all is well.
The reason it's a hack is because if you define mySeq=seq, the hack won't work on mySeq.
Note [Desugaring seq (3)] cf Trac #2409
The isLocalId ensures that we don't turn
case True of True { ... }
which stupidly tries to bind the datacon 'True'.
The need for special rules
Roman found situations where he had
case (f n) of _ -> e
where he knew that
f (which was strict in
n) would terminate if n did.
Notice that the result of
(f n) is discarded. So it makes sense to
transform to
case n of _ -> e
Rather than attempt some general analysis to support this, I've added enough support that you can do this using a rewrite rule:
RULE "f/seq" forall n. seq (f n) e = seq n e
You write that rule. When GHC sees a case expression that discards
its result, it mentally transforms it to a call to
seq and looks for
a RULE. (This is done in
Simplify.rebuildCase.) As usual, the
correctness of the rule is up to you.
To make this work, we need to be careful that
seq is not desguared
into a case expression on the LHS of a rule.
To increase applicability of these user-defined rules, we also have the following built-in rule for
seq (x |> co) y = seq x y
This eliminates unnecessary casts and also allows other seq rules to match more often. Notably,
seq (f x |> co) y --> seq (f x) y
and now a user-defined rule for
seq may fire.

Jerusalem (Jan. 1)
In view of the critical state of Zionist finances, and pending an authoritative decision on the question of salaries (an emergency meeting of the Actions Committee of the Zionist World Organisation has been called in London for Monday week, the 12th. Inst., to consider the critical financial position and to take effective action), the members of the Executive of the Jewish Agency have decided, the J.T.A. learns, to return one month's salary for the current year to the Palestine upbuilding funds, apart from their usual contributions to the Keren Hayesod, the Jewish National Fund and the other funds engaged in Palestine upbuilding work.
The Finance Commission of the Jewish Agency held two meetings in Berlin last week to consider the situation created by the world-wide economic crisis. Dr. Bernhard Kahn, European Director of the Joint Distribution Committee and Vice-Chairman of the Finance Commission of the Jewish Agency, who has just returned from his stay in the United States, reported on the preparations which are now being made there for the next drive for Palestine funds, and a plan of economies in the budget of the Jewish Agency was drawn up by the Commission for submission to the Jewish Agency Executive in London and Palestine.
Mr. Simon Marks, who is the Zionist Vice-Chairman of the Finance Commission of the Jewish Agency (Dr. Bernhard Kahn represents the non-Zionists) reviewing the position of the Keren Hayesod at the recent English Zionist Conference, said that it was his duty to divert attention from political questions to the grave financial situation, which if it was not taken in hand, may lead to a greater catastrophe than any White Paper that any Government could issue. Speaking of the findings of the Finance Commission of the Jewish Agency at its last meetings in Berlin, Mr. Marks said that it was revealed there that they had an estimated £145,000 to meet an expenditure of £340,000. This meant that if they were to cut down and retrench in Palestine considerable hardship would ensue, but even if they were to cut down, they could perhaps save £60,000 but yet there would be an estimated deficit of £140,000. Can we Jews, asked Mr. Marks, in spite of adverse conditions, rise to the occasion? Is a mere £140,000 to bring so much ruin in its train? Political changes are certainly beyond our control, but economic changes should be within our control.
Dr. Weizmann, too, in his message to this Conference, spoke of the financial crisis, one of the severest which the world has ever experienced, and of which the end no one can as yet foresee", urging that "the political movement and its achievements are nullified if we lack the economic and financial means for carrying out our work".
The Jewish Agency Executive in Palestine, and the head offices of the Keren Hayesod and the Jewish National Fund have been publishing their salaries lists, and the Palestine Hebrew Press has in welcoming their action expressed the hope that all the other Jewish institutions in Palestine, including the banks, will follow their example, and publish lists of the number of their officials and the amount of their salaries. At the same time the Hebrew papers in Palestine have taken the view that the salaries of the Executive members and Directors of the Funds are excessive, and in view of the financial crisis should be cut.
In the early part of 1927, at the time of the prolonged economic depression in Palestine, which Mr. Leib Jaffe, Director of the Keren Hayesod, then described as "the gravest that has ever faced us", adding "we find ourselves in a period of dire emergency", there was similarly a wave of criticism against the Zionist Executive, also in connection with the question of the salaries of the officials of the Zionist Organisation and Colonel Kisch issued a statement dealing with "the unjust and ill-founded charges which have been raised in many quarters against the officials of the Zionist Organisation. These charges which have been repeated in the Jewish Press both in Palestine and in the Diaspora", he said, "may be summarised as suggesting that the Zionist Executive and its dependent institutions, the Keren Hayesod, the Jewish National Fund, etc., are greatly overstaffed with idle officials who live in luxury and make no sacrifice for the common interest during the present distress. I do not hesitate to say, and I can speak with some knowledge of the subject," Colonel Kisch declared, "that the staff which we employ is by no means excessive for the work which it has to do and which, but for the exceptional devotion and zeal of the staff, remain extra hours in the office after closing time, while others regularly take office work to their homes to do at night. No overtime salaries or allowance, are paid.
"There remains," Colonel Kisch went on, "the question of the contributions of the staff to the common welfare, both generally and with reference to the present crisis. I would first mention that not only does the whole staff pay Massor to the Keren Hayesod, but that whenever there is a collection for any national purpose, as, for example, inscribing a name in the Golden Book of the Jewish National Fund, the first address to be visited by the collectors is that of the pikidim, and such appeals invariably meet with a generous response. On the occasion of the recent collection of the Moazath Poalei Jerusalem for the unemployed, unmarried officials of the Palestine Zionist Executive all gave 12 days salary to the workers' relief funds, and married officials gave nine days' salary. Finally, it is with regret that I have to record that the officials have received no salaries for the last three months, and have loyally accepted this suspension of what had become due to them. It is a deplorable thing that the Executive has been obliged thus to hold up the salaries earned by the officials by continuous and steady work under conditions of great pressure, and were it not for the devotion of the officials and for their desire to share the distress of their comrades in the field of labour, such suspension of salaries would have produced demoralisation, which has happily been entirely absent. Instead of attacking and criticising the officials, Jewish labour in Palestine and supporters of Zionists funds everywhere should appreciate both the work they are doing and the sacrifice they have made. It seems to me that the Jewish public ought to have helped the Executive to create a Civil Service of expert officials devoted to the national aspirations and honoured by the public for their labours."

Putney man wants more fire hydrants in neighborhood
Mon, 18 Apr 2011 21:31:28 GMT —
A fire destroyed a home in Putney a few weeks back and one resident wants to make sure it doesn't happen to him or any of his neighbors.
Willie Williams, with the Putney neighborhood watch, addressed the Dougherty County commission Monday, asking that a fire hydrant be placed on the east side of U.S. 19.
The house fire happened on Dorough Avenue, witnesses say the nearest hydrant was a mile away from the home.
He said neighbors don't want their homes to meet a similar fate.
"If that fire had been in another area where the houses were closer together, both of the houses would have burned because of the flames that would be carried to the next house, and the houses, in some sections are built much closer than where the incident happened," said Williams.
County commissioners said they would look into the matter.

Budget Briefing: Low Natural Gas Prices Worry State Budget Officials
Happy Presidents' Day, here's your budget briefing:
Low Natural Gas Prices Concern Oklahoma's Governor, State Treasurer "A revised reduction in the amount of money natural gas gross production taxes will bring into the state's treasury in the coming fiscal year may not be low enough, two members of the state's budget board said Friday." Also: "The high price of oil has spurred drilling activity in the state, which means the state will have to pay more in rebates to oil and natural gas companies than estimated two years ago." (newsok.com)
Over a Barrel: How We Ended Up on the Hook to Oil and Gas Producers to the Tune of $294 Million "In their efforts to find additional revenues for the upcoming budget year, legislative leaders and Governor Henry took some strong and politically risky steps to suspend tax credits for various forms of economic activity. But when it came to tax incentives for the oil and gas industry, expected to amount to some $150 million in FY '11 and FY '12, it was the industry that seemed to have the upper hand." (okpolicy.org)
Stillwater Sen. Jim Halligan: State Income Tax Adjustment 'Will Happen' "Given its political momentum, Oklahoma's tax structure is likely to see some minor tweaks — if not a complete overhaul — in the next year. 'There is a theory that we'll reduce them and our growth will cover, but it's a little bit like jumping off a cliff and hoping there's water at the bottom of it,' Williams said." (stwnewspress.com)
Proposed Budget cuts for Oklahoma Could Gut State's Film Industry "Proponents — including Senate Finance Committee Chair Mike Mazzei, R-Tulsa — believe the cuts are necessary to help lower personal income taxes, while Shryock, Lee and other industry observers say lawmakers need to look at the big picture."

Most Helpful
Sturdy and classy looking. Very good for the price
Feels very sturdy, the top is a bit hard but bearable. I understand these storage ottomans tend to be on the hard side due to the lack of room for cushioning. Nice textured linen-esque fabric. Note on Color: the picture made it look like a light grey on my screen, but the actual color seems to be beige/light khaki. Still looks very nice and classy. Minimal assembly. The legs are a bit too long for my taste, so I will either cut them myself or order a set of shorter ones online. Overall very happy especially given the price.Read More

I love this ottoman!
It has great storage and it's the perfect neutral color for any room.Read More
didn't match the love seat in fabric but in color.
love seat was in the same color, received the ottoman first it looked OK but fabric wasn't as substantial as I would of liked. Waited for love seat and the fabric was same color and heavier i weight.colors matched but fabrics did not. my old camera couldn't get close enough to photograph to send Overstock. It is in a back room and not used for company and family except the grandchildren. I have ordered from them before but these were the first pieces of upolstered furniture I have gotten. will not do that again or if I do it will not be in several pieces.Read More
very nice
This ottoman is well made and very useful with the storage and reversible top. The color depicted is much more gray when it actually is quite brown.Read More
Nice Piece, But Totally Different Color
Purchased this for my living room, as I needed storage for blankets and other miscellaneous items. The storage compartment worked perfectly for this. I liked the fact that the top could be flipped so you either have the table (good for if you have drinks or food while watching movies) or the cushion. The only complaint I have is the color- I'd read in other reviews that it was different than the picture, and they were right. It's no where near grey, but a lighter tan color. It worked ok with the space, so I didn't return it, but I definitely would've preferred it to look more like the image.Read More
Cheaply made, oddly proportioned
We returned this immediately. Overstock was great with the return. It looked very cheap, and the fabric on the inside was ripped and off centered.Read More
Questions & Answers
Hello atout, yes, the legs are removable. Thanks for shopping with us!
"The ottoman looks grey. Is this a good representation of the color?"
Thank you for contacting us dnealvarez. It is a fairly good picture but viewing this from one screen to another it can look different. Pictures also do not capture the texture well. I always recommend a fabric swatch so there are no surprises. Please let us know if you have any further questions.
It's more of a beige/light khaki color. Not grey at all
"Do the 12.5 height include the height with the legs? If so how deep is the storage compartment?"
Thank you for contacting us npsaran. This is actually 19.5" high, we are working on getting this corrected. The usable area of the storage space is 22" X 22" X 12". Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Christee Williams Receives Presidential Medallion for Instructional Excellence
(By Lisa Garrett)
PENDLETON --- Christee Williams, a licensed veterinary technician and instructor in Tri-County Technical College's Veterinary Technology program since 1989, was honored with the highest award presented to the faculty, the Presidential Medallion for Instructional Excellence, at the College's annual commencement May 10.
Dr. Ronnie L. Booth, president, presented the medallion to the Pendleton resident. The medallion is presented each year to the instructor who has contributed the most during the academic year to the profession of teaching, to the development of the College and to the students.
"Christee is a caring instructor who is committed to lifelong learning in the veterinary profession," Dr. Booth read from the nomination written by Williams' supervisor, Dr. Peggy Champion, who leads the Veterinary Technology Department. "She is able to take her knowledge and explain it to the students on a level they can understand and use. Her combination of being able to teach in the lecture setting and then demonstrate in the lab gives students a solid foundation in the skills necessary to become excellent veterinary technicians. Her years of experience and determination to keep up with the latest knowledge of veterinary medicine have ensured that she always provides the best instructional material in veterinary technology," wrote Dr. Champion.
Williams began working part time for veterinarians while a student in high school and decided to prepare for a career in Veterinary Technology at Tri-County Technical College. The Summerville native graduate was the College's outstanding senior in 1982 and went on to work at Clemson University as a research specialist in the Poultry Science Department. In 1989 she joined her alma mater as an instructor in the Veterinary Technology program. In 1995 she received the first-ever Technician of the Year award from the South Carolina Association of Veterinarians.
In addition to teaching full time, Williams serves as the faculty advisor to the student chapter of the National Association of Veterinary Technicians in America (NAVTA). In 2005 the chapter was named the Student Chapter of the Year. This was the first time Tri-County's chapter submitted a nomination and was the chapter's first national accolade.
Williams also is a member of the South Carolina Association of Veterinary Technicians (SCAVT) and serves as the regional representative on the SCAVT state board. She served as treasurer of the board from 2001 - 2011.
"In her role on the SCAVT, she learns about changes on the state and national levels for veterinary technicians, as well as maintaining information about current veterinary practices so that she teaches students the most current practices. It is not just her willingness to participate on this board, but also the respect of her peers that kept her in this position," said Dr. Champion.
In addition, she is a long-standing member of the Association of Veterinary Technology Educators and attends bi-annual conferences. In 1996 Williams was one of 40 technician educators selected nationwide as a contributor to a review manual for veterinary technicians.
It is not unusual for Williams to go above and beyond what many would consider normal working hours to meet the needs of the students and animals in the program, said Dr. Champion. When the program was undergoing is reaccreditation process, Williams' input and time were vital to the department receiving full American Veterinary Medical Association reaccreditation for six years, she added.
"Christee is, by far, the best technician I have ever worked with," said Dr. Champion. "I admire her as a technician, as an instructor, and especially as a caring and supportive advisor for all the students in the Veterinary Technology program."
Williams and her husband, Charles, live in Pendleton and have two children, Joshua and Ashley.

Salvdoran MS-13 gang member gets life for sex trafficking 12-year-old girl
An MS-13 gang member from Salvador was sentenced today to life in prison for prostituting a 12-year-old girl to clients throughout northern Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, D.C.
Jose Ciro Juarez-Santamari, 24, was convicted by a federal jury on July 28, 2011, for conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation of a minor for prostitution.
According to court records and evidence at trial, Juarez-Santamaria joined MS-13 while in El Salvador. He was a member of the Pinos Locos clique of MS-13 and was known by the gang as "Sniper."
At a Halloween party in Oxon Hill, Md., on Oct. 31, 2009, Juarez-Santamaria met a 12-year-old runaway who asked for his help in finding a place to stay. Instead, the very next day, Juarez-Santamaria began prostituting the victim throughout the metro-D.C. area, according to a statement from Neil H. MacBride, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia.
The victim was prostituted from October to December 2009 and was providing sex for money every day of the week. To keep the victim compliant, Juarez-Santamaria and others would supply her with alcohol and marijuana, MacBride said.

Multiple Products by R Thomas Marketing: Recall - Undeclared Drug Ingredient
[Posted 01/09/2016]
AUDIENCE: Consumer
ISSUE: R Thomas Marketing LLC is voluntarily recalling all lots of the following products to the consumer level:
- Black Ant: BIG BOX (20 small boxes / 4 capsules per box / 80 capsules total)
- Herb Viagra: BIG BOX (20 small boxes / 4 capsules per box / 80 capsules)

- Weekend Prince: BIG BOX (24 individual cards / 2 capsules per card/ 48 capsules)
- African Black Ant: BIG BOX (8 small boxes / 6 capsules per box / 48 capsules)
These products were tested by the FDA and found to contain sildenafil, a PDE-5 Inhibitor which is the active ingredient in an FDA-approved drug for erectile dysfunction (ED) making this tainted dietary supplement and unapproved drug. This undeclared active ingredient poses a threat to consumers because sildenafil may interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs such as nitroglycerin and may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels. Consumers with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease often take nitrates. Additionally, the product may cause side effects, such as headaches and flushing.
R Thomas Marketing is also recalling all lots of various other products previously sold at the consumer level because these products were sourced from the same vendors as the above-mentioned products and may have resulted in similar misbranding or the likelihood for misbranding to occur in the future. See the Press Release for a list of all recalled products.
BACKGROUND: These products were marketed as dietary supplements for male sexual enhancement. The products are packaged in accordance with the respective identifiers listed above. All lots of the specified products sold by R Thomas Marketing via internet sales from September 2013 to present are included in this recall.
RECOMMENDATION: Consumers and retailers that have any of these above mentioned products should stop using and/or distributing this product immediately and arrange return of the products to: Attn: RECALL NOTICE, R Thomas Marketing LLC, 20 Passaic St., Trenton, NJ 08618
Healthcare professionals and patients are encouraged to report adverse events or side effects related to the use of these products to the FDA's MedWatch Safety Information and Adverse Event Reporting Program:

Pen Tablet UI/User Study/M
From OLPC
Name: M
Age: 21
Occupation: Student
- consistently was not pressing hard enough on the tablet to generate the data
Task: Constrained drawing, Little Precision Required
- still had problems not applying enough pressure to the tablet
Task: Unconstrained Drawing, Little Precision Required
Fixed Mode
- after being told about the grab button, immediately tried to use it in combination with the tablet/stylus (unlike other participants)
- however, had the impression that she was moving the object that she just drew, rather than the canvas
- started to realize what was happening: "What I should do is...put it closer to the top and this closer to the bottom, because each time you move it, the whole thing moves, right?"
- but, in the end, still seemed to think that grabbing would allow her to move individual object
- in the end, was unable to complete the task
Movable Mode
- took a minute to figure out that the mapping rectangle was moving, not the object
- after figuring out how it worked, was able to fairly quickly complete the drawing
- "I like this one better, because you can just sort of move the screen to the area that you want to draw in, draw there, and then move on. Logically, I think it works better for me."
Dynamic Mode
- was confused by the fact that the blue box was shown
- when setting the cursor, was trying to click at the point where she wanted drawing to begin
- "I guess I'm not sure if it's going to work unless the box is there."
Task: Unconstrained Drawing, Requiring Precision
Dynamic Mode
- when still in dynamic mode, didn't fully succeed. When drawing two lines close to each other, she expected the tablet to work in the regular ABS mode (as in MOVABLE and FIXED)
- "I guess from this, after I stop, after I lift the pen -- do I have to click the button again?" (in other words, questioning whether she has to set the cursor for every single line she draws
Alt-Hover Mode
- when using the alt-hover mode, she used a lighter stylus pressure, which was too light to register on the tablet (as with S)
Task: Reproducing Paper Drawing
- chose to use the MOVABLE mapping to reproduce her paper drawing, and did a reasonable job with it
