User Frontend Submit - Plugin Overview
User Frontend Submit PRO is the multiple purpose form builder plugin, which allows you to make a frontend post form without access to the WP Dashboard.
You can create a rich diversity of classifying services on your website by allowing the user to add their ads on the frontend.
It's not hard to build the form, just drag and drop, select the post type that user will post to, and even take money for each post if you want.
The main usage of User Frontend Submit PRO is creating the post/post type on the frontend without login, but you can create the other forms like the contact form or email subscription form by taking advantage of form builder feature.
How to install the plugins that you have bought from us.
Prerequisites - Before You Start
Before we installing the plugin, we have to prepare for the materials that the plugin needed to run.
User Frontend Submit PRO is an add-on for Advanced Custom Field plugin, it can run with both ACF Free and PRO.
Prerequisites – Required plugin
So, before you getting started in install the plugin. Please remember to install ACF first.
To make it clearer, let's make a list of prerequisite stuff:
- Must install Advanced Custom Field first
- Advanced Custom Fields must be 5.6 or above. See how to update ACF Free from 4.x to 5.x
Optional Plugins
Besides, in this full guide documentation, we have the several videos to help you follow easier.
In the videos, we used some plugins, which if you follow, you need to install to have exactly what we've shown.
Here's the full list:
- CPT UI: Create the post types without coding.
- WooCommerce: We take advantage of WooCommerce's payment gateway to accept money from front end post user's
That's it, now let's install the User Frontend Submit PRO plugin!
Install WordPress Plugin by 3 Methods
If you've just installed WordPress then you're probably looking for a way to install WordPress plugin that you need for your website. If that's you then keep watching because in this video I'll show you three methods that you can use to install a plugin on your site.
Fastest: Install WordPress Plugin by Plugin Dashboard
The first method is the easiest method and we will be using the WordPress plugin directory.
It sounds complicated but it's really not.
- From your WordPress dashboard, you'll look for the plugins area and you want to click add new.
- When you click add new it takes us to this whole area this is the WordPress plugin directory.
These are all the free plugins available that you can install on your site.
To find the one that you're looking forward we want to search for the plugin, well do ACF For WooCommerce that's a great additional plugin for WooCommerce that you can install.
Let's go ahead and install it now and you have to do two things with any plugin.
You'll want to install it but then you want to activate it which means you want to make sure that it goes live on your site and that you can utilize it.
Once you click to activate it'll activate the plugin and each plugin will be different, for the ACF For WooCommerce, it will take me to the active page where you will active by the purchase code.
So that's the first method and it's by far the easiest but its also utilizing only the free plugins that are on the WordPress directory.
Slower: Install WordPress Plugin Section in Upload ZIP file
Now the next method is you've purchased a plugin and you've downloaded it from the plugin website.
You will need to upload it on your own so let's do that next.
We want to go back over to our plugins area we can click add new again.
- Instead of doing the search plugins area we want to click on the upload plugin button.
- So well click upload and now we can choose the file and we need to search for it on our computer.
- From here you can either click Choose file or if you have it open you can left-click the zip folder and drag it and then you see it.
Once you choose the file you want to click install now and it will go through and install the plugin that you just uploaded.
Again once it's installed you'll be prompted to activate the plugin if you need to activate it right now
If you don't want to activate it you can go to your installed plugins and you can see the status of them where we only have our ACF For WooCommerce activated you can tell by the blue background.
From the WP Plugin List you can activate any of them, you can also delete them, you can deactivate them if you don't want to use that plugin anymore.
So that's method two now method three is very similar to method two however instead of uploading it through our plugins admin area well be using an FTP client.
Slower a little more: Install WordPress Plugin by FTP
There are several FTP clients that you can choose from Ill be using FileZilla for this tutorial.
If you're not familiar with FTP clients then you can view our FTP video on how to get started with that once you connect to your website make sure that you go into your plugins folder.
To do that I'll show you.
- We'll drill down into the public HTML.
- You need to go to wp-content that is where all of our themes and plugins are kept.
- Right here you see our plugins page and here are the three plugins that we have.
What you need to do is when you download your zip file from the website that you've purchased your plugin you'll also need to unzip the file so that you can upload just the folder.
- So you see here I have my acf-for-woocommerce_v3.8.zip file so we need to right-click and extract all
- Browse where we want it to go
Now let's go back to our FTP client.
- Going to right-click, refresh so you can see all of the items on the left panel, what you want to do is bring this folder and upload it over the right panel.
- You need to do is right-click, select upload, and now it will upload all of the folders into your plugins area on your website.
When it's finished we can head back over to our plugins page and you'll want to click refresh or just click the installed plugins again and when you do that you now see that the plugin that we just uploaded is here.
When you upload via FTP it automatically uploads but it does not activate so anything that you want to activate.
Make sure you come back over to your installed plugins area and activate the plugins that you need to.
That's the simple way of how you can install a plugin on your WordPress website.

Frontend Create Post
How to create simple frontend post form
In this article, we will show you how to create the really really simple front end post form. Here's what we will achieve after following this tutorial:
- Make a simple front-end post form, without coding.
- Guest post allowed
That's it, don't ask why it's so short, b/c it's simple!! 😉
Let's get started.
We will assume that you have read the prerequisites post, about installing the independent plugin.
If you didn't, you can read about it in this article: https://catsplugins.com/knowledge-base/frontend-submit-pro/prerequisites-before-you-start/
Step 1: Create Post Type
We need to create a custom post type, by doing so, we will have to have a place to store the posts after we submit.
Please see the picture below:
After installing the CPT UI plugin, you will have a new section on admin sidebar, click on "Add/Edit Post Type"
At the Basic Settings fields, we need to put the required information to create the first custom post type
Here's the result after creating the custom post type by CPT UI
That's it, we have created the custom post type, called "Real Estates" for our website. Let's move on to the next part.
Step 2: Create a Frontend Real Estate Ads Form
Head over to Field Group section on your admin sidebar, then click on Fields Groups
Then you click on Add new button
To have a smooth flow, we will break into 3 parts.
- Part 2.1: Create the custom field
- Part 2.2: How to use User Frontend Submit PRO settings
- Part 2.3: Select where the fields will be affected to
Let's move on.
Part 2.1: Create Custom Fields
You might have heard about meta box or the custom meta, or more familiar is "custom fields".
By default, when you create the post types, we only have the commons fields like title, content, tag, category.
But to make it more and more suitable for your business, like RealEstates advertising, then we have to add more data to the post. So, we have the custom fields.
They just like the title or content default field, but serve your specific purpose.
After click on Add new button, you will see a screen like this:
At first, we have no fields appear at the table, so we need to create our fields, depending on your business, you will create the specific fields. Here's ours:
If you find something different about the "Field Types". Like, you do not have repeater field type. Check out this article to see why
Part 2.2: User Frontend Submit PRO Settings
We have a lot of settings to serve the multipurpose, but for each example, we will only show you some, so you will have a faster kick start and better understanding.
After going through all the examples, you can use the plugin from A to Z.
So, when you scroll down a little bit, you will see a green panel. Here's it:
Please follow the below checkpoints, one by one:
- Form Display: Switch to On (so the plugin will know and use the field group you have created as the form)
- Form Type: Select the Frontend Post Submission.
- Redirect after submission: Select type of redirection, either redirect to a Page, Edit Page, to the specific URL or newly created post.
- Page: For each the select of redirection, you will get a specific setting, in this case, we select "page", so the plugin will show you all the pages in your website to redirect to.
- Enable Payment: Switch to Off
- Enable Guest Posting: Switch to On
Next, click on Form Settings tab
We need to focus on 2 things:
- Custom post type: Select the post type we just created, here we selected "real_estate"
- Edit page: The edit page, when the user clicks on edit post, after submit, they will be redirected to that page.
That's it for step 2.2, continue will be a simpler step.
Step 2.3: Select where the fields will be affected to.
You will scroll down a little more, and find Rules section
At this section, you will need to select again the post type that the fields will be shown.
To explain you understand:
- Select custom post type at the previous 2.2 step, you will let the plugin know where to store the posts to, after user submit.
- Select post type at Rules section, it will allow you to show the field in the backend, too, to let you edit the submitted post if needed.
Step 3: Paste the shortcode and testing
That's it, now we will copy the shortcode and create a page to put the shortcode in. Then we will see the demo.
By click on Add Shortcode (1) in image, you will see a popup with the options, follow the step and click Add, you will have the shortcode form, showed as (2) in the image.
Here's our result:
That's it, hope you understanf the full flow.
Simple Pay Per Post Form
To continue with the previous post about creating a simple frontend real estate post form, today we will learn about pay per post feature.
Pay Per Post is the feature that allows you to take money from the poster, who submit the ads to your site.
Because we have created the real estate post form already, we will make use of that form, change from guest post to pay per post feature only.
So, if you didn't read, please read the mentioned link above first.
Enable Pay Per Post
Still at the edit field group page, you scroll down and notice to these settings:
- Enable Payment: Switch to On
- Select currency: Select the currency user will pay by
- Check out page: The page contain shortcode [acf_fb_checkout]
- Checkout failed: Any page if you want to show a message to the user when the payment failed, select that page
Now, we will move to next tab, Payment Settings tab
At this tab, we have:
- PayPal setting: email, sandbox key, production key, mode. See the requirements and how to setup here
- Stripe Settings: email, sandbox key, sandbox secret, production key, production secret, mode
- WooCommerce Payment Gateway Settings: title, description
If you want to use which payment gateway, enable that one and fill out the information.
Here's the result, after user click submits, the user will be redirected to the checkout page and make a payment there.
Simple Post Form With Subscription
Well, as in the previous feature, it was Pay Per Post, and the plugin also supports Subscription.
The name said it all! The subscription will help you sell your service as packages, in each package will have different post limit and feature.
In this section, we will go through the flow of subscription form, from creating the package to set up the form to final demo.
Each step will have its demo video or screenshot for better understanding.
What's the package
The package or the pricing plan is created to help you sell the service with a recurring payment (monthly, yearly).
Each package will have a different feature, such as:
- Allowed post types
- Package price
- Total post allowed
- Package expiration date
- Max post allowed per day/week/month/year
- Number of Featured Post
- Number of VIP Post
- Package features in text
Step 1: How to create the packages
At your admin sidebar, click Packages, then click Add new, you will get a page like this:
You will see the various settings, set it as you want.
Step 2: Enable Subscription in Form Settings
Now, we head back to the real estate frontend form.
At the Payment Type setting, you will select Subscription instead of Pay Per Post.
- Package: SElect the packages you just created. Only who bought the packages you have chosen can use this form to post.
- Package style: We have the prebuild 4 styles of the package, select the styles that you want to show on the frontend.
and save it!
Here's our result:
Advanced: Enable Frontend Post For Existed Posts
In the favorable case, we will use the plugin with a totally new custom post type, and we have nothing to talk about.
But, some cases, when you buy the theme with pre-built meta box (includes meta_key), and now you switch to use our User Frontend Submit PRO plugin, but want to map with the current meta_keys so the system will run as we haven't touched anything.
That's the ideal case, and I will show you how.
Continue with the pre-built form of real estates frontend post form, we just need to change something.
We will need to focus on 3 points:
- What's the current meta_keys
- Map with the current meta_keys
- Disable/enable field group effects on the backend.
Hold my beer and let's get started.
Step 1: Find the current meta_keys
To find the meta key for each field in your meta box, you will:
- Point the mouse to that field
- Right-click and select "Inspect Element"
- Find "name" attribute in the source code, that's the meta key.
Step 2: Map with the current fields
In this step, we will map the just found meta_key in the source code, with our custom field, so that when the user creates the posts from frontend, the value will be saved to your current form field.
To do that, navigate to your field group setting, and expand the field setting.
On the screenshot, you will see I have select "Meta Field" at Form Field Type option.
That's it. Next step, disable in the backend.
Step 3: Only work for front-end form
At the field group setting, you scroll down a little bit, you will see the "Settings" section.
Then, you will switch off the "Active" setting.
This will help you only use this field group for front-end post form, else, at your edit post in the back-end, you will see 2 duplicate meta box, 1 from your theme, and 1 for the ACF field group here, that's not we want, right?
We only want the ACF field group work with front-end post form, then, the front-end post form will save the value to your current meta box, without any changes.

User Frontend Submit PRO - Shortcodes
Here are the available shortcodes that you can use in any case for your business.
Each shortcode will have its attribute, and the explanation as well as a note to that one.
Frontend Post Form Shortcodes
Create new post
This shortcode will show the front-end post form with the field group ID you specified.
- Attribute group_id is required
[cats_form group_id="197"]
Edit post
This shortcode will render the edit form.
- Attribute group_id is optional
- Attribute post_id is required
[cats_edit_form group_id="1" post_id="1"]
Your either can use attribute post_id in the shortcode, or on the URL. This will be useful if you create the edit link for each post and redirect to the edit page with post_id param included
Post list
This shortcode will show you the table of posts that created by the current user.
I.e: A customer logged in, and he can see all his posts on the frontend.
- Attribute post_type is required
- Attribute post_status is required
- Attribute show_all_posts_for_roles is optional
[cats_posts post_type="post" post_status="draft,pending,private,publish" show_all_posts_for_roles="administrator"]
If you're the admin, and you wish to manage all the posts of the user on the frontend, then use show_all_posts_for_roles for administrator role.
You do not need to use attribute show_all_posts_for_roles when showing posts of a specific user
Packages List a.k.a Pricing Table
This shortcode will show you the pricing table with the pricing package you specified. The packages mean the customer will subscribe to your website.
It will be useful in case you want the user to buy the package separately, then posting at another time.
Because if you enable the subscription feature in the form, then you do not need to use this shortcode, as the plugin will show the packages automatically, and force the user to buy packages before allowing the customer to post.
- Attribute id is required (it's the ID of the package)
- Attribute style is required (from 1 to 4)
- Attribute column is required (from 1 to 6)
[cats_package id="396,395,394" style="style-1" column="1"]
If you use this shortcode, it will take the payment settings from the global ACF FB setting page. Please set the information there first, before using this shortcode.
Check out page
This shortcode will render the checkout page, with the information of current pay per post or subscription, like pricing, the name of package….etc
This shortcode has no attribute.
You do not need to create the checkout page, as when you activate the plugin for the first time, it will create the page for you automatically.
User's Shortcodes
User Create Form
Since the plugin allows you to create the user as well, so, you can use this shortcode with the field group ID (of course you have to set the options in the form set to have the ability to create user).
- Attribute group_id is required
[cats_user_regist group_id="1"]
Edit User Profile
This shortcode will render the form just like the create user form but without the field group attribute.
Example usage:
You just need to create a page, called "Edit Profile", and then add to your menu bar, so, when the user clicks on that, you will render the edit form. Easy!
User Profile
This shortcode will show you the user profile with the pre-built template.
- This shortcode has no attribute
User's Transactions
This shortcode will show you a table with the detailed transactions of the current logged-in user.
User's packages
This shortcode will show you the packages that the logged-in user purchased, it will have: name of the package, expire date/time, remaining post, renew button.

The Alleluia Community of Parcelles Assainies lives in the suburbs of Dakar, an overpopulated area, marked by the usual urbanization problems. It is among these brothers and sisters, often wounded by material and moral poverty, that we try to live our healing charism through our services. As a Franciscan Sister of the Poor, I feel privileged to be a healing instrument in the Frances Schervier Formation Center.
For me this activity is the expression of God's Will; it is for this reason that I must accomplish it by following in the example of Jesus the Healer. This Person, through his love, healed all the world's men and women.
I try to have a humble, simple and respectful attitude in dealing with the different situations facing the young women who attend our Formation Center. I try to follow in the example of Mother Frances; this attitude helps me to analyze their group behavioral pattern. Through talks and dialogue, I try to orient them to live in mutual respect and fraternal love.
To be a healing instrument is for me a gift that I try to live in my daily fidelity while sharing and working with lay people.
Sister Elisabetta La Manna
In a deep communion of prayer
In the apostolate with the children, I always have in mind these words of Jesus, "Let the children come to me, and do not prevent them; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."(Matthew 19: 13-15)
Observe how ingenuous and simple the children are who come to the monthly meetings of the Franciscan Rays! It is more than a year that we have been sharing the Word of life with these children. During a meeting, this question was asked: "For whom do you want to pray?" I was touched by this answer: "For my Dad, that he can come back home, because he abandoned us, and my Mom cries all the time." It was a cry from the heart from an eight-year old little girl. I comfort these little ones who are wounded by their parents with the words that God inspires in me, and the Spirit does most of the work by touching their hearts.
How can I not feel compassion for this twelve-year old girl who does not yet know her own mom and who has been raised by an aunt? Her pain is deep and manifests itself through insomnia, mood swings and poor grades at school. It was also an opportunity to come into contact with this family. We commend all these children to your prayers.
Sister Sophie Dioh
|How am I a healing instrument in today's world? I could answer: "through listening and mentoring." I try to offer a service, in particular to the young. I try to help the girls with whom I live and whom I follow in the discovery of their life project and the other youth that I meet in the Parish or elsewhere. To listen to them often means to enter into their wounded life histories; to help them to assume their weaknesses, but also to recognize their potential and their resources so that they can become a source of power and hope. At times, it is merely about making them aware that they are loved by God and that they are able to love in return; encouraging them after a failure; and listening to them without any judgment when they have been given the courage to confess their mistakes to bring them to God's merciful arms.
Sister Marvi Delrivo
To be a healing instrument for me is to be there for the little ones at the daycare – and always being available for those who need, me even for the most tedious tasks that we don't want to do.
This great ability to listen to the children and to be open to them has allowed me to have a special experience with a three-year old little girl. Arriving at the daycare one morning, she told me: "My Sister, my Sister, yesterday my Dad hit my Mom!" What wounds that child had to endure the whole night? How much violence do so many others undergo? In this case, I can only give the love that heals and comforts.
Sister Sylviane Boissy

AceShowbiz - Details of two new characters on "True Blood" season 5 are unveiled while a casting call for these roles is being put out. According to Entertainment Weekly, one of the new faces is someone who is having a history with Eric.
Called Nora, she is a progeny of Godric and described as a beautiful and intelligent 25-to-35 something who plays a double agent within the Vampire Authority. Anyone cast on the role will join the regular cast ensemble and may appear in some scenes featuring a little nudity.
The fifth season of the HBO hit series will introduce another new female vampire. Described as a powerful ancient vampire and a world-class seductress who's also a little mad, she is named Salome which is similar to the name of Herodias' daughter in the Bible.
Co-executive producer Raelle Tucker has dished on this character, saying that she is a "very significant, strong, mysterious woman at the center of one of our main stories next year ... a very familiar and compelling character. It may be someone you've heard of before."
More new characters are likely going to come to "True Blood" since creator Alan Ball previously teased that the upcoming fifth season will feature "spirits without bodies, which may or may not be ghosts, freakish demons and more unusual supernatural creatures never seen before."

Growing cut flowers from seed is much more satisfying – not to mention cheaper – than buying them.
Many flowers for cutting are also attractive to pollinating insects. They'll enjoy them outdoors, then you can enjoy them indoors. And by growing cut flowers in your own garden, rather than paying for blooms that have been shipped halfway across the world, you're doing your bit to reduce air miles.
Cut flowers are easy to grow from seed, and if you stagger the sowings they'll bloom for months. Whether you favour architectural simplicity or want to capture the essence of your entire garden in a vase, a selection of half-hardy and hardy annuals will do the trick. Find out how to grow cut flowers for every season.
Aim to grow a range of flowers and foliage with complementary or contrasting colours and textures. Attractive bouquets and arrangements combine strong structural elements with fillers and foliage to bulk out and meld the dominant ingredients. Good staying power is also important – flowers for cutting should have a good vase life and long, strong stems.
Here are 10 cut flowers to grow from seed.
Ammi majus
Bishop's flower, Ammi majus, is a 'posh' form of cow parsley. The lacy flowerheads are very graceful and they have excellent vase life. Butterflies and bees find them irresistible.
Sow: direct from March to May
Height x spread: 90cm x 50cm
Snapdragons, Antirrhinum, are every child's favourite. They also make long-lasting cut flowers. Choose a vibrant variety that packs a powerful punch.
Sow: under cover from Jan to March
Height x spread: 70cm x 60cm
Flowering for months, cleome comes in shades of pink, mauve and white. But take care when cutting and arranging – the stems can have vicious spines.
Sow: under cover from February to April
Height x spread: 120-150cm x 45cm
Daisy shapes such as cosmos make perfect cut flowers and are invaluable for pollinators. Cosmos 'Rubenza' is a shorter variety, so doesn't need staking, and its deep red blooms last until the first frosts.
Sow: under cover from February to May
Height x spread: 75cm x 40cm
Some herbs make great cut flowers. Dill produces large, starburst umbels, which help to support the stems of other flowers and knit them together visually.
Sow: direct from March to June
Height x spread: 90cm x 40cm
Easy to grow, toadflax, Linaria, bears masses of tiny flowers – for months on end – that resemble miniature snapdragons. Cutting encourages more flowers.
Sow: direct from March to May
Height x spread: 60cm x 15cm
Mexican sunflower
Also known as tithonia, Mexican sunflower adds heat to a bouquet, particularly the orange variety 'Torch'.
Sow: under cover from March to April
Height x spread: 120cm x 45cm
Lasting for up to two weeks in a vase, coneflowers, Rudbeckia, make impressive late summer cut blooms. Try a vibrant yellow, like 'Marmalade', or a rich ruby red.
Sow: under cover February to April
Height x spread: 45cm x 25cm
Sweet pea
Sweet peas come in a mind-boggling range of colours, produce blooms for as long as you keep cutting and are famously fragrant. No garden should be without them.
Sow: under cover from January to March
Height x spread: 180cm x 45cm
Verbena bonariensis
Slender Verbena bonariensis stems topped with tiny violet flowers are elegant in a vase. Searing the cut ends in a little boiling water stops the petals dropping.
Sow: under cover from February to May

I was at the library last week and happened to see this book, Franklin and Winston, and couldn't resist picking it up. I have to say it is nicely written and rather cute. It focuses on the visit of Churchill to the US in December of 1941 (using Christmas to highlight this). I was talking to another lady later who said she usually started with a children's' book to see if she wanted to learn more on a topic! Makes sense in a way - condensed, easy to read, information that can interest you quickly. I was thinking, though, there is also a lot of children's' literature out there that only reinforces stereotypes, not what we want. Any titles to share?
I did go on to research more on the topic of the book (checking them out - they were surprisingly accurate here!). I found this great site that is a teacher's resource on this visit:
A close friendship and the excellent working relations that developed between U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill were crucial in the establishment of a unified effort to deal with the Axis powers. This working relationship was highlighted by many joint appearances and agreements that not only addressed the immediate needs of the Allies but also the planning for a successful peace following victory.
In late December 1941, shortly after entry of the United States into World War II, Churchill met in Washington, D.C., with Roosevelt in what became known as the First Washington Conference, code name "Arcadia." The conference placed first priority on the Atlantic theater and the defeat of Germany and Italy. On December 24, 1941, Roosevelt and Churchill delivered Christmas greetings to the nation and the world from the South Portico of the White House during the lighting of the National Community Christmas Tree. FDR closed his short message with the following passage, "And so I am asking my associate, [and] my old and good friend, to say a word to the people of America, old and young, tonight, -- Winston Churchill, Prime Minister of Great Britain." These words clearly describe the relationship that these two leaders of the "Free World" had struck.
There is a cute scene in the book about Churchill being caught in the tub and the men running back and forth like this. So I checked this out - turns out TV had also used it and someone else did the work for me! It is true!
It's an amusing vignette, but did this nude encounter between Churchill and FDR really happen? The British ambassador recently hosted a screening of Into the Storm, followed by a panel discussion, where Newsweek editor and Churchill/FDR biographer Jon Meacham was asked this question. "Yes!" Meacham replied, according to the Washington Post, "I actually interviewed the man who took the dictation!" He added: "For me, in a dork way, it was very glamorous."
That man was Patrick Kinna, Churchill's wartime dictationist, who died at age 95 in March, and was the last surviving witness to the naked incident, which some of his obituaries dutifully noted. As Meacham described in his Franklin and Winston, during Churchill's Christmastime 1941 visit to Washington, following Pearl Harbor, the Prime Minister was fresh from his twice a day bath and pacing about "completely starkers" in his White House bedroom, according to Kinna. The loyal stenographer, who previously had served the Duke of Windsor, was taking dictation from his restless nude chieftain. Churchill replied "come in," after a knock at the door, and FDR rolled forward, surprised to see the Englishman disrobed. The President tried to leave, but the Prime Minister stopped him, declaring, "You see, Mr. President, I have nothing to hide from you."

To maximize opportunities for education and entrepreneurship across a diverse set of public safety subjects, safety.data.gov has challenges, prizes, and competitions that encourage the application of public safety data in meaningful ways. Looking for different safety challenges? Start here to learn more! Or, tell us your story!
The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) and Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) are launching a collaborative Data Visualization Challenge in support of the U.S. Department of Justice (USDOJ) Digital Strategy. This Challenge seeks data visualizations capable of expanding the use and understanding of publicly available criminal justice data.
This is a two-phase Challenge. Successful Phase I (Ideation) contestants will move to Phase II (Creation). Twenty-five thousand dollars in prize money will be awarded to winners of the Creation phase of the competition. Submission requirements, judging criteria, and deadlines are described at the challenge web site.
Advancing Breakthroughs in Foodborne Pathogen Detection
The FDA is calling on America's innovators to submit concepts applying cutting-edge techniques to achieve revolutionary improvements in the speed of the FDA's detection methods for Salmonella in produce.
Do you have what it takes to create innovative tools to address our nation's transportation challenges or revolutionize the way Americans see and understand the transportation system they use every day? Your challenge is to create a tool to address systemic challenges by accessing publicly-available federal and/or local DOT datasets.
The National Institute of Justice, the National Science Foundation (NSF), and the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) seek to promote the development and evaluation of criminal justice software applications (apps) that are compatible with Ultra-High-Speed (UHS) networks (100 Mbps symmetrical up to 1 Gbps symmetrical). The National Institute of Justice offers this challenge as a call to design and create UHS-compatible apps that measurably improve the efficiency and/or effectiveness of criminal justice and public safety services and operation.
This National Institute of Justice Challenge seeks innovative solutions to providing mission-critical voice communications services for law enforcement and other public safety responders within the LTE environment using commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) technology, which are achievable within five years of the challenge prize being awarded. The proposed solution should ensure mission-critical voice communications in all environments (e.g., urban, rural, wilderness) and in the face of communications infrastructure challenges, such as (1) where there is no terrestrial communications infrastructure; (2) where the existing infrastructure has been compromised or damaged; and (3) confined areas (e.g., subways, buildings, underground garages).
USDA's first-ever Drought Code Sprint is a call to developers across the country to use publicly available government information to help farmers, ranchers, and others gain quick and reliable "one-click" access to information on drought conditions and Federal drought relief.
Winner Announced!
Drunk driving is the most frequently committed violent crime in the United States, killing 10,228 in 2010 and injuring about 345,000 more. Mothers Against Drunk Driving is working to eliminate this violent crime and works to raise awareness of this issue around the end of the year when drunk driving is, sadly, more common. We do this primarily through our Tie One on for Safety public awareness program.
This year, we want you to provide an interesting, engaging, and compelling look at government drunk driving statistics in support of the program. The winner of this Challenge will be publicly recognized along with their infographic in MADD's national Tie One on for Safety press release, issued in November 2012.
Winner Announced!
The U.S. Department of Justice's (DOJ) National Institute of Justice (NIJ) and other federal agencies have funded research to develop materials, performance standards, and compliance testing methods to help ensure that body armor meets certain minimum performance requirements to protect the officers who wear it.

Data can improve decision making. This challenge asks you to analyze or visualize Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) motorcoach safety and other relevant data to help improve those decisions. We challenge you to make better information accessible to more people to encourage better decisions. Through better decisions we can drastically improve the safety of our nation's motor coaches. Do you have what it takes to develop an innovative product that benefits motorcoach travelers? The United States Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) wants to see what you can do!
Winner Announced!
Patient Safety Organizations (PSOs) listed by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) create a safe environment for health care providers to collect, aggregate, and analyze data without fear of legal discovery. This flow of information is designed to improve the quantity and quality of actionable information available and ultimately improves the safety of health care by identifying and reducing the risks associated with patient care.
The Institute of Medicine, in its 2011 report on Health IT and Patient Safety: Building Safer Systems for Better Care, recommended voluntary adverse event reporting by health care providers and promoted PSOs using AHRQ's Common Formats as the "best option" for advancing effective reporting. Because medical errors occur in a complex environment and are caused by multiple factors, adverse event reporting must capture a wide range of data, which may go beyond structured data required by Common Formats. Furthermore, providers may need to send the same or similar data to more than one PSO as well as to other public health or health oversight agencies.
Winner Announced!

Client Testimonials
Max and I met Mike McNamara about thirteen years ago on line. We were relocating from Virginia to Hayden, Idaho. We followed his website which was very easy to read and made an appointment with Mike to visit the Coeur d' Alene, Idaho area and look at the real estate there. Mike was never pushy or impatient. He has a wealth of knowledge having been a realtor for many years. He was eager to spend time with us and show us as many homes as we wanted to see. His friendly manner and good humor made it easy to communicate with him.
We moved to Hayden, Idaho and in the course of thirteen years, Mike helped us with our realtor needs five different times. He is quick, competent and very experienced when it comes to recommending the right title company, lending folks ,and handling all the various paperwork needed. All transactions went smoothly and we always appreciated his input considering all the many questions we had.
Max and I highly recommend Mike as a realtor. He is both professional and friendly. He gave us a lot of peace of mind while trying to make very important decisions when buying and selling a home. We have moved again this time to New Mexico in October 2017and will miss Mike as a realtor and a good friend.
Max & Rosemary ~ Placitas, New Mexico
Your awesome. Buying our home through you on the internet was a financially rewarding and pleasant experience. Your service was so good that we listed and sold it through you 3 years later. Again, a very rewarding experience. So rewarding that we did refer a family member to you and she was also very pleased with you. And we have never meet. Buying or selling over the internet, you are the one to contact.
Dave and Kathryn ~ Ventura, California
We needed a home right away. Our home had just sold. We had no time to visit the area. We contacted you via the internet. You send us information on all the listings in the area. You then went over all of them with us on the phone during a 3 hour phone conversation. . We picked 3. You took detailed pictures of all 3. We picked one. We rolled into town and moved into our new beautiful home. Your awesome.
Rob and Sherie~ Anaconda, Montana
I had my home listed with 4 different Realtors before I listed it with you. It did not sell. I was frustrated with broken promises and no results. When I listed with you, the amount of showings on our home went way up. We were very pleased with your advertising and doing everything you said you were going to do. And yes, our home did sell with a price and terms very much to our satisfaction. Your negotiating skills are awesome.
Chad and Carol ~ Coeur d'Alene, Idaho
You worked very hard on our behalf to sell our home for us. You made valuable suggestions to enable us to sell our home and were very accessible. We have had our share of Real Estate Agents who once they get the listing sit by the phone and wait for it to ring. Mike went above and beyond the call of duty to get our home sold and for full price.
Peter and Sally ~ Seattle, Washington
You are excellent. We have purchased several homes over the years and working with you has been the most pleasant experience we have ever had. You are truly the best
Debbie and Jerry ~ Post Falls, Idaho
Ten months have passed since the first day we meet you. Our lives have changed so positively since then we feel compelled to write this letter and thank you formally.
Your expertise and guidance in helping us locate and purchase a home is so much appreciated. As you recall, we contacted you through the internet last March because of your fantastic web site. We arrived in Coeur d'Alene on April 8th, meet with you the following morning, toured homes for several days, made an offer, countered and signed the escrow -- all in 10 days! We were able to do this because of your vast experience and expertise in home sales in the great Coeur d'Alene Area Real Estate market. You interviewed us, gave us a map and suggested certain neighborhoods that best represented what we wanted. After we picked the neighborhood we liked, Fairway Forest, you showed us all the homes available at that time. Your system of assisting people in their search is so fined tuned that is save us alot of valuable time and money. Bill, having been a licensed real estate broker in the state of Cailifornia for over 40 years, felt you did everything exactly right.
Importantly, your manner of negotiation was respectful and skilled and got us the best price and didn't offend the seller, who, much to our delight, wanted us to close the escrow early. Since then, your referral to a contractor who is very talented and honest has provided a remodel on our purchase that has turned a house into our home! We couldn't have accomplished all of this in ten months without you. Thank you.
Last but not least, because of your caring and hospitable nature, you introduced us to some delightful people who have become our friends - you are more than a real estate agent - you are our friend and a wonderful ambassador for Coeur d'Alene, Idaho and Windermere Real Estate.egotiating skills are awesome.
Bill and Sandy ~ Coeur d'Alene, Idaho
Mike is without a doubt the most caring and competent Real Estate Agent I have met. He is extremely patient and truly cares about the needs of his customers. Mike treated my family like we were his family and was always there day and night to answer questions and help ease our stress in moving across country and looking for our new home. Mike also impressed us with his ability to defend us against other tough real estate agents and home sellers ensuring that we were not taken advantage of. I want to thank Mike for finding us the perfect home for our family at an unbelievable price. We are extremely satisfied and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Mike to anyone buying or selling a home.
George and Helen and Family
Mike, we are so thankful for how smoothly you made our home purchase go. Moving from another state and being able to just move right in upon arriving could not have been any easier. We love our new home and the surrounding area and people. Jim and I have transformed the backyard into a nice setting complete with patio, picket fence garden shed and garden area. I've enjoyed the CDA Garden Club. This fall I am attending a couple of their garden tours. We will definitely keep you in mind if we meet anyone with any real estate needs. Please stop by if your ever in the area. The garden and yard always look the best in June and July. Take care and we love your calendar.
Connie and Jim ~ Hayden, Idaho
Just a note to express our thorough appreciation for your services in connection with the search for and then the purchase of our new home on Hillview Drive in Hayden. From the moment we executed the Buyer's Broker Agreement, you were on top of every aspect of our search.
AND as Judy and I gradually completely changed our focus and housing priorities - thus adding a significant amount of extra work by you on our behalf - you were the soul of cooperation and creativity. Your follow up on so many details necessitated by our being 2,500 miles away, seemed above and beyond the terms of our agreement.
We would recommend you without reservation to any serious buyer in your area and would welcome the opportunity to do so.
Thank you again and good luck.
Doug and Judy~formerly from New Hamphsire now living in Hayden, Idaho

Marrakech is known as the "Pearl of the South".

Lets play Hydro Thunder on the Sega Dreamcast – 2 Player battle
Hydro Thunder – a watery racer for the Sega Dreamcast – here the pair of us give our opinions on this video game!
Hydro Thunder is a powerboat racing sub-series game, originally an arcade game and later released for the Sega Dreamcast as a launch title in 1999. It was also released for PlayStation and Nintendo 64 in early 2000. This game is part of Midway's 'Thunder' series of racing games, which includes Offroad Thunder, 4 Wheel Thunder, and Arctic Thunder. Hydro Thunder Hurricane a sequel to Hydro Thunder was later released for the Xbox 360 on July 27, 2010 on Xbox Live Arcade
The arcade version of Hydro Thunder utilizes the same cabinet seat as San Francisco Rush and the later Offroad Thunder, and also has the same steering wheel on the control panel as Cruis'n USA minus the standard foot pedals and adding a variable position throttle with forward, neutral and reverse directions. The game also has an unusual volume adjustment, where the regular play volume is usually set lower than the feedback volume for the subwoofer in the seat. This places the player "in the game" and makes the person feel like he or she is actually piloting a powerful, high-tech speedboat.
Besides the arcade, Hydro Thunder has been ported over to several home consoles. The PlayStation version of the game included a career mode not found in the other versions. The Dreamcast version of the game had graphics that were more detailed and closer to the arcade version than the other console versions. The Nintendo 64 version allowed up to 4-player local multiplayer (instead of just 2-player) when the N64 Expansion Pack is present. The Dreamcast version of the game was included in Midway Arcade Treasures 3, a compilation of Midway's many racing games. A PC version was also released in Europe. The Dreamcast port became one of the few Sega All Stars titles. Midway Games had plans to create a double pack for Hydro Thunder and San Francisco Rush 2049 under the name Hydro Rush for the PlayStation 2. But the game was canceled and the project moved to Midway Arcade Treasures 3 for Nintendo GameCube, PlayStation 2 and Xbox.

it adds the full domain name at the end of the url whenever I want to save a page and cause and error
I suddenly started to have a problem. In the admin section whenever I try to save a page, it actually saves it but then it when forwarding the page it adds the domain name to the end of url such as: http://www.mydomain.com/Admin/Settings,www.mydomain.com
and naturally gives an error. Again when I want to edit an html in the layouts, I click the </> button and it opens the popup with an error. When I check I see that it tries to open the link as
again by adding the domain name at the end of the url. Any ideas what might be the problem? I checked the base url and it is correct in the form of: http://www.mydomain.com


text: Ahab 816 Posted November 30, 2018 @Laphin Then it would seem you do not watch many horror movies... or do not pay enough attention to them... You can start with the early horror movies, and work your way up to the current movies. There are a great many movies in which the "killer" only found their victim due to this reason... whether they were in a hiding spot or not. It also happens in war movies... as it is an accurate portrayal of people in 'panic mode.' Personally, I am not going to do your research for you on this... go watch some movies for yourself... and pay attention this time. But... just one example from this very franchise... Chris Higgins sure did scream pretty loud in the closet in part 3... or it would have taken Jason a while to find her... wouldn't it... Her reason for screaming is quite irrelevant... and still proves my point, as far as "movies" go. As a side note... This particular point is not one of the reasons you will remember the name of a movie... But how many times have you watched a horror movie and had to comment on 'how stupid' the next victim is acting before the killer found them? I imagine that number would be pretty high if you are a horror fan... and can count higher than ten. And when someone is panicking... the phrase "In their right mind" no longer applies, no matter how sane or intelligent they are in normal circumstances. The counselor you are playing is not "you"... Even if you were the fearless wonder (which I have my doubts about)... the counselors are not. This is why the fear mechanic is built into the game... no one is going to show fear on that level in a game... so it is forced on us all... This is pretty far from 'bad programming'. There is a way around this... as I already mentioned in the post you quoted... manage your fear, or use a higher composure counselor... with which, you still have to manage your fear. The no fear build works wonders on some of the counselors... but would be a pointless build if the fear mechanic was removed. The only part of the fear mechanic I agree should be removed is the fact that they will scream when they cannot "see" Jason and he is merely within a certain radius of them... that part is a bit on the 'silly' side of things. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We went on two day trips with Dahab Safari Day Tours. The first day we went to St. Catherine Monastery and Mt. Sinai. The second day we went to Colored and White Canyons. Both trips were very organized. Our guides were very professional, friendly and well trained. The views were breathtaking. We had a great time.
Good price and friendly reception. The trip was amazing, pontual and safety. The attendant gave us attention and good options to know Dahab and others places surround from here.
I was so scared of going hiking because they told me it was going to be hard but the people there were so helpful and friendly we accomplished it together. I conquered my fear of heights and it has been one of the best experiences of my life.
We have a lot of fun with them and spend lovely time, kids enjoyed the outings. We descovered dahab a lot of places I'm dahab, and it was so lovely.

Sunday afternoon
The summer is almost over but it's still sunny outside so why don't you get dress and have a nice long walk? Is there a better way to spend your Sunday afternoon?
Sometimes you can discover new places. Other times you may see interesting faces which you didn't expect to see in the big city. For example how often do you meet in person with a chimney sweep these days?

Refugees: Point of impact
We live in a system of private property seeking at the same time to be a part of an advanced society. The spaces are public or private governed by borders.
The borders reflect the human lacks, are the main obstacle towards a true evolution. A revolution of understandig, compasion and love which is capable of knocking down the walls of the ego and the greed.
We forget that our forbears were as refugees. It is a phenomenon inherent in the mankind, f.e, the crusades, the Moslem invasions, etc.
From children on a small scale we can experiment some similar sensation. You will never forget this so long, so strange and special day, to begin a new year in a different school, without friends with whom to share. Probably the language has also changed and suddenly in the instant of giving up your first tear you remind few times the words of your father like a prayer " the time to conquering your future is right now, this one is your opportunity".
It has already been done late but nevertheless you will surrender to the everlasting instant, you will feel a big hug and the clap on escapular area and you will be receiving the blessing for the day.
We all of someone or another way are refugees because we look for a transformation, evolution and in the current situation is unattainable. The inefficient bureaucracy is the mainly obstacle because it doesn't allow to legalize fast the status of people.
We can spend as refugees only for the fact of changing our paradigm, of deserting our confort zone. The right way to evolution will postponed meanwhile the mankind don`t shape an human character.

Carlos Bonell's Private Collection
Sixteen Spanish guitar favorites from Master Bonell
World-renown guitarist Carlos Bonell returns with a collection of sixteen Spanish and South American guitar classics from his "private collection."
"The music on this CD contains some of the best known and best loved pieces for the guitar. They are pieces that I return to, again and again, not just for my recitals, but also in private, for my own pleasure and enjoyment. All of the music is by Spanish and Latin American composers and this is not surprising because it is there that the guitar has established its firmest roots. Much of it reflects folk and popular music, some of it is intensely romantic and all of it exploits the magical sound-world of the guitar. Such is the beauty of this sound that some of the pieces on this CD have an emotional depth almost entirely due to this quality: "the miniature orchestra" that the great Andres Segovia referred to can be heard resonating through almost all of these pieces in the unique range of tones and colours that is the guitar."
– Carlos Bonell

My 2017 FQXi Essay Contest Entry
Jan 12, 2020
Mindless mathematical laws can not give rise to aims and intention? By Harry H. Ricker III, MS EE Is modern science superior to Greek Philosophy?1 Only if the scientific method is actually the way to truth in the deep philosophical sense. Here I intend to explain why mindless mathematical laws are not capable of saying anything that is true about reality, nor are they capable of actually supplanting philosophy or improving upon that method of searching for truth.2 The justification of this c... more
FQXi Essay Contest 2017, Review

Review Of FQXi Essays Wandering Towards a Goal By Harry H. Ricker III Introduction The purpose of this essay is to discuss my impressions and comments resulting from reading the submissions to the 2017 FQXi Essay Contest. The title of this contest is Wandering Towards a Goal: How Can Mindless mathematical laws give rise to aims and intentions. In my essay I took issue with the thesis and asserted that mindless mathematical laws can not give rise to aims and intentions. The essay topic was... more
Ivor Catt And Displacement Current
Dec 16, 2019
Introduction In an article published in Wireless World, December 1978, Ivor Catt published a criticism of the Maxwell displacement current that provoked considerable controversy. This article had a significant impact on my thinking as I had always had reservations regarding the displacement current concept in electromagnetic theory. In fact, the idea of displacement current that the modern textbooks present is completely different from Maxwell's conception of it. Maxwell's displacement current ... more
The Wakefield Experiments Background and Motivation
Dec 1, 2019
Introduction This essay discusses the background for the Wakefield Experiments. This refers to two sets of experiments performed by Tony Wakefield an Australian amateur radio operator, or ham, who performed these experiments for Ivor Catt. The objective of these experiments was to verify the predictions made by Ivor Catt based upon his Theory C. This theory asserts several things. First, that a capacitor is a transmission line, and second, that there is no static charge in a capacitor, but that... more
The Catt Anomaly Confusion
Nov 14, 2019
Introduction In two different papers written as responses to the Catt Question, two Italian physicists have interpreted the Catt Question as an anomaly or paradox. The response of Ivor Catt to this assertion is simply that the Catt Question is "just a question". This may seem an unimportant point, but in their paper the Italians attempt to suggest that the Catt Question is merely an apparent paradox, and not an anomaly. This method of answering the Catt Question is a type of obfuscation... more
On An Apparent Resolution of the Catt Question
Nov 5, 2019
Here I publish a link to a paper submitted by Stephen Crothers to IOP Physics Education Journal On an Apparent Resolution of the Catt Question. The editor replied with the following: "We regret to inform you that the Board Member has recommended that your article should not be published in the journal, for the reasons given in the enclosed report. Your manuscript has therefore been withdrawn...I really don't see the value to educators of Physics Education publishing this letter. The initial pape... more
The Catt Question Background
Oct 24, 2019
Introduction Many people have difficulty in understanding the Catt Question. This is understandable given the inconsistency and confusion that is produced by the current definition of electricity. (Here is the original formulation of the question.) It will probably come as a surprise to the reader that there is no clear and precise definition of electricity. Consequently, despite the fact that one of the first requirements of any science is to have a clear and precise definition of the concepts... more
Catt Question Letter
Oct 21, 2019
The following letter was prepared by Harry Ricker as a courtesy to Ivor Catt who wished to send a letter to the editor of the IOP Journal Physics Education in order to refute the claims made in a paper published in that journal. The letter was cosigned by five other scientists. This letter was rejected and so it is presented here. Background for The Catt Question is presented by Ivor Catt at his website.

Foreground Milky Way Dust Filaments In Galaxy Photographs
Aug 6, 2019
Introduction This report documents a study of Milky Way dust filaments that appear in photographs of external galaxies. The technique used in this investigation is the use of software photograph processing tools called effects filters. The software used here is the On One Photo Perfect Effects 9. This allows the adjustment of digital photos to enhance aspects of the photo to permit the investigation of foreground dust in galaxy photographs. The thesis of this study is that the classification ... more
Cobwebs Of Space: Discovery and Interpretation Of Interstellar Dust Filaments
Jul 18, 2019
Introduction The search for the elusive dark matter is famous. Here I will discuss the discovery of a different kind of dark matter in interstellar space, which I call cobwebs of space. This dark matter is just as elusive as the more famous, but probably fictitious, dark matter. The appearance of this dark matter, which forms dark filaments in space is referred to herein as interstellar dust filaments. This is because they are like the dark clouds that populate interstellar space, but they are ... more
Special Relativity Is Irksome
Jul 2, 2019
1.0 Introduction [caption id="attachment_446" align="alignright" width="228"] Einstein and Lorentz[/caption] This paper defines a new way to assess the scientific value of Einstein's special theory of relativity by defining a concept called irksomeness. This follows by converting the adjective irksome, meaning vexatious or troublesome, into a noun. We will call a theory irksome by the following definition: An irksome theory is one in which each of its component demonstrations makes sense o... more
Galileo Was Wrong, A Scientific Documentary On Geocentrism
Jun 11, 2019
Galileo Was Wrong, A Scientific Documentary On Geocentrism produced by CAI Publishing INC., is a science documentary that is different from the usual science that we are supposed to believe in. It is an astonishingly good science documentary film for many different reasons. This film is so good and has such a high positive educational value that it ought to be shown in every advanced high school physics class, as well as physics for liberal arts, introductory college physics, and astronomy or co... more
What Happened To The Principle Of Relativity?
May 31, 2019
In his book Science and Hypothesis, first published in French in 1902, Poincare gives to the principle of relativity the status of a unifying principle in both mathematics and physics. It is an important theme of the book, which unifies this collection of essays. At the end of the book, Poincare discusses how this principle is rendered safe in Lorentz's theory of electro-dynamics. It is certain that Einstein drank deeply from the waters of Poincare's book and fully embraced the ideas contain... more
The Principle: Challenging The Intellectual Integrity Of Cosmology
May 26, 2019
[caption id="attachment_354" align="alignleft" width="170"] The Cosmic Hand Of God[/caption] This is the best science documentary film that I have ever seen. It puts physical science into its correct and proper place behind philosophy, logic, and religion, instead of superior to them, in terms of the definition of what is truth. It is a film that I wish that I had made, because it makes a difficult and complex technical subject easy to understand, by revealing the prejudicial bias of scientists... more
William Gilbert Founder Of Terrestrial Magnetism
May 22, 2019
William Gilbert of Colchester was born in 1544AD. As the founder of English experimental science, he is one of the great men of the scientific revolution. His most important single idea and enduring result was that the earth itself is a gigantic magnet. He was the eldest of five children born to a rising middle class family. Although nothing is known of his childhood, it seems clear that his interest for scientific knowledge must have been demonstrated at an early age. Aiming for a medical degre... more
Johannes Kepler and The Magnetic Unification of Terrestrial and Cosmic Physics
Apr 8, 2019
Introduction The unification of physics as a fundamental goal is older than modern science. Thales argued that water was the universal substance; the earliest attempt at a unified natural philosophy. The hypothesis of unification is that diverse, complex, and apparently unrelated phenomena, can be unified under a single principle that unifies the phenomena under the aegis of a simpler and more elegant law or principle. Johannes Kepler (1571-1630) is the first scientist of the modern era to atte... more
The Light Sphere Paradox Of Einstein's Special Relativity
Jan 13, 2019
Unlike the much more famous paradox of the twins, the light sphere paradox is relatively unknown. It forms the basis of the claim that the velocity of light is the same value c in all inertial frames in relative motion. Its paradoxical aspect has not produced the volume of critical discussion or commanded the attention of critics of relativity that it deserves. The author could find only one reference to this paradox in an Internet search and only five references to it in his collection of relat... more
Deepsea Challenge Wonderful Exploration Film Marred By Shameless Self Promotion
Jan 9, 2019
Deep, Dangerous, Determined, that is the summary description of the film Deepsea Challenge, that is a 2014 dramatic ocean exploration adventure 3D film produced by the National Geographic Society. The film is about the glamor, danger, thrill and, magnificent grandeur of deep sea ocean exploration and its focus is upon human accomplishment in the face of dangerous obstacles and unexpected technical problems. Its scientific and educational value is marred by a shameless self promotion of its star ... more
Einstein's Mistaken Time Dilation Prediction
Nov 14, 2018
The purpose of this short note is to expand upon a conclusion I discussed in my paper on the Irksomeness of Einstein's Special Theory Of Relativity . There it was pointed out that the famous prediction made by Einstein in his 1905 paper was false. Einstein said that a clock placed at the equator should run more slowly than an identical one located at one of the poles of the earth. Obviously it was implicitly assumed that the earth's rotation would produce a relative motion between the clocks... more
Dr Mendel Sachs: Establishment Physicist or Anti-Einstein Revolutionary?
Oct 18, 2018
[caption id="attachment_225" align="alignright" width="100"] Mendel Sachs[/caption] Dr. Mendel Sachs, professor of physics, presents an enigma to any one investigating Einstein and his relativity theories. On the one hand Dr. Sachs appears to be a dedicated establishment disciple of Einstein and his theories, and on the other he appears to be a critic, although not a very vociferously vocal one, of Einstein's theories. In September 1971 Sachs published an article titled "A Resolution of the c... more
Herbert Dingle Maverick Scientist and Anti-Einstein Philosopher Of Science
Oct 17, 2018
Herbert Dingle was a 20th century physicist, philosopher and historian of science, author of scientific books, and an untiring critic of science and scientific method. He is best known for his criticism of the special theory of relativity, stemming from controversies over the twins paradox in the 1950s, and his book Science At The Crossroads which documented how the scientific community attempted to suppress his heterodox viewpoint. He is most famous for his assertion that the special theory of ... more
Dr Louis Essen Inventor Of Atomic Clock Rejects Einstein's Relativity Theory
Aug 17, 2018
The purpose of this article is to publish and comment upon a letter written by Louis Essen and sent to Dr. Carl Zapffe. The letter is interesting because it [caption id="attachment_191" align="alignleft" width="200"] Dr Louis Essen[/caption] compresses into a few short lines the essence of Louis Essen's criticism of Einstein's theory of relativity. The letter was provided to the writer by Jack Graham, from Dr. Zapffe's files, upon the request of the author for material needed to write a ... more
Dr. Carl Andrew Zapffe: Extraordinary Anti-Einsteinian
Aug 15, 2018
This discussion is about the encounter of a genius, Dr Carl Andrew Zapffe, with relativity physics. There are two main points. The first is that Dr Zapffe was not a fool or an ignorant person, he was trained scientist who, when he investigated the arcane details of relativity, discovered that Einstein had made a mistake. Being a conscientious person he felt obligated to bring this to the attention of the scientific community. Our story is about how his views were received. How one famous author ... more
Roger Boscovich--Modern Physical Science Versus Natural Philosophy
Aug 10, 2018
The Theory of Natural Philosophy was written in Vienna and is Roger Boscovich's magnum opus. There are two editions. The first edition, the Vienna edition, was finished while Boscovich was living in Vienna, Austria in the years 1756-1760. In 1758, when Boscovich was age 47, the First, or Vienna, edition appeared. Later in 1763, Boscovich published a second edition in Venice. Significantly the second edition has a completely different title, which reflects a different idea which Boscovich had reg... more
John E. Chappell Jr.Creator Of Dissident Science Revolution
Aug 4, 2018
Historians condense the facts to make complex social movements simple and understandable in hindsight. Our movement to reform establishment science, making it responsible to the needs of people who fund science with their taxes, and not a servant of the established state system, traces its origin to the work of Dr. John E. Chappell Jr., who organized the predecessor of the JCNPS known as the Natural Philosophy Alliance or NPA. Officially John is the acknowledged founder of the NPA and the drivin... more
The Origin of the Equation E = mc2
Jul 9, 2018
Because the issue of the source of this equation keeps coming up, here is a quick discussion of the origin of the famous formula, incorrectly attributed to Einstein. Thanks to Robert Sungenis for providing this. The Origin of the Equation E = mc2 Contrary to popular opinion, E = mc2 did not originate with Einstein. As van der Kamp reveals: And then that hackneyed combination of Einstein and the "E = mc2," endlessly bandied about in popular-scientific Western folklore! True, it can be de... more
The Black Hole Wars Resume: The Information Paradox Is Back
Jul 2, 2018
[caption id="attachment_103" align="alignright" width="300"] Gavin Wince[/caption] The Black Hole Wars Resume: The Information Paradox Is Back, is a film by Gavin Wince. It is not a science documentary, it is a science film, and that makes it something different in the genre of films reviewed by this writer. In the past only documentaries produced by mainstream media or mainstream scientists have been reviewed. So here is something different. Gavin Wince is a philosopher who is doing mainstream... more
Supermassive Black Holes More Fiction Than Scientific Fact
Jun 21, 2018
The BBC Horizon program, Supermassive Black Holes, is an example of how science documentaries have turned science into science fiction, by combining a little science fact with fictional writing to produce speculative science fiction. Unfortunately, much of modern mainstream science is infected with this type of speculative fiction. We can lay the blame for this on the modern scientific method, which has deviated from the strict traditional approach, to become a Frankenstein Monster, where scienc... more
The Hagiographic Science Of NOVA's The Big Bang Machine
Jun 11, 2018
At the beginning of The Big Bang Machine we are told bombastically that the program is about the discovery of a force, "that fills all of space, completely invisible, and yet without it life, earth, the universe we know could not exist". However, on the website we are told this: "July 4, 2012, scientists at the giant atom smashing facility at CERN announced the discovery of a subatomic particle that seems like a tantalizingly close match to the elusive Higgs Boson, thought to be responsible fo... more
The Delusion Of Particle Fever
May 5, 2018
Particle Fever is a science documentary film that unmasks the deception behind modern particle physics in the course of making a documentary about the Large Hadron Collider or LHC and the claimed discovery of the Higgs Boson. The film takes us into the world of particle physics, its people, its machines and its human self deceptions, in a way never seen before in a documentary film. We meet the people behind the particle physics story and discover that they have created a self deception, a psy... more
Review Of NOVA Program The Great Math Mystery
Apr 27, 2018
The Great Math Mystery Episode of the PBS popular science series NOVA asks the question: Is math a human invention or the discovery of the language of the universe? It seems to this writer that there is actually no question here at all. The correct answer is that mathematics is a human invention. So one has to contemplate, why is the question being asked at all? Obviously, the answer is because there is an attempt by the mainstream science establishment to promote the idea that mathematics is wh... more

April 26, 2015 By Harry H. Ricker III David de Hilster's film, Einstein Wrong - The Miracle Year, is a documentary that explores an important nascent social movement that is currently ignored by the establishment mainstream media. It documents the aspirations of ordinary people to more completely understand and appreciate the world they live in, but who can not, because of a systematic conspiracy to obscure the truth and censor differences of opinion in scientific research.
