Topic: accessing this.parentNode in RJS
Does anyone know how I can do this Javascript command with RJS?
this.parentNode.className = 'selsec';
This is what my AJAX call looks like which will invoke load_chart.rjs
<%= link_to_remote "Ajax Magic" , :url => {:controller => "chart", :action => "load_chart" } %>
How exactly would access "this" in an RJS template?

'We spend over $85 million a year sending food waste to landfills,' says a New York City official.Seattle, San Antonio, Toronto, and Portland, Ore. — are moving rapidly ahead. And municipal composting efforts in many European countries are far advanced and steadily growing. In 2011, the 27 states in the European Union composted on average 15 percent of municipal waste, with Austria composting 34 percent, the Netherlands 28 percent, and countries like France, Spain, and Germany each composting about 18 percent.
In the European Union, 40 percent of waste is now composted or recycled.the curb for trash and recyclables, there are now three. The green compost bins can include all food scraps, no matter how spoiled, along with vegetation from yards like leaves and flowers, and solid paper products including coffee cups, waxy paper, milk cartons, and related items. The city collected its millionth ton of organic waste for composting last fall. Overall, 78 percent of San Francisco's waste is now diverted from landfills.
'Ultimately, there's going to be very little left in the traditional garbage can,' says one official.to 35 percent of 1995 amounts by 2016. In the EU, 40 percent of waste is now composted or recycled, with 23 percent incinerated and 37 percent landfilled. Norway, Sweden, the Netherlands, Denmark, Switzerland, Belgium, Austria, and Germany now send less than 3 percent of their waste to landfills. Copenhagen, one of the greenest cities in the world, stopped sending organic waste to landfills as far back as 1990.

I like hiwassee river,but
I miss fishing and hunting on the little t. In the winter I would duck hunt in the mornings and trout fish after the morning hunt.late summer we would trout fish in the. mornings and dove hunt after noon. I know it's long gone ,thanks to a land hungry tva. It's a shame that you younger fishermen didn't get a chance to enjoy the little t. like l did
I know it sucks, but you can't dwell in the past. I miss the Clinch during the 90's when no one fished it and the fishing was incredible. I miss the Cumberland when the dam wasn't screwed up, the water was clear/cold, and there was no one else from Knoxville fishing it. I miss the Holston below Cherokee when no one knew there were trout there, and overlooked it because they didn't like smallmouth. I miss the days when folks didn't like smallmouth.
You get the point, I could go on and on. Instead I just move and adjust to the annual challenges and changes that occur.
I can understand and relate to many of your frets. I can remember when the Clinch went through the lull in the 90s. It was rare to see people on the river and land and houses were dirt cheap (well, actually cheaper than avg. house prices). I should have jumped at the chance on a few properties. However; I really did not have the money anyhow.
I like your philosophy on how to approach things. I find it frustrating at times to keep an open mind; but, I realize I am just being quarrelsome with myself. I think if we work together, share our thoughts, and keep an open mind; we can make things better for everyone. In the end; the rivers and our natural resources need us to protect them in the near future.

These give us the ultimate human freedom... The power to choose, to respond, to change.
Swamp there are many of us who still have great memories of the Little T. Like you l was lucky enough to hunt ducks and doves there but my best memories are of the fishing. Mid summer browns sucking down catalpa worms in the channels along Calloway Island near Toqua; massive hatches of caddis that were so thick you couldnt help but suck a few down if you got to gasping for air as you tried to get to the bank when the water releases caught you mid river; streamer fishing those big drops at Chota, the railroad trestle, and the fishtraps; Laughing at friends around campfires along the Bluffs; and trying to figure out those big mayfly hatches below Hoss Holts. And being stunned by the mass and size of those browns that made the river famous. But It is a resource that didnt come close to ever reaching its potential. This past year l have been reading and commenting on drafts of LITTLE FISH which is Professor Platers just released book on the snail darter litigation, and all thise old fishing memories came flooding back. Interestingly l think some of our tailwaters probably fish as well today as did the Little T, and if there is any solace, many of those improvements that dramatically improved the Clinch, South Holston and other tailwaters came about as a direct result of the Little T litigation and the recognition of what a reareation and minimum flow regime could do to improve tailwater fisheries. So you keep those good menories. And you tell people about what was here and what was lost. And make them look at your pictures. I am there with you. But l sure like the way some our other rivers are fishing now

Boy I wish I could kick somebody right square in the pants over there at Root's management. What a bunch of lazy asses....worse than a damn donkey! DANG!!
Yeah, they volunteer you to take care of their e-mails but, IMHO, when it comes to your important e-mails it's "so long sucker!" Bob don't like them people...they play dirty pool.
Bob,Often what people do or fail to do is not with malicious intent. It is incompetence. In this case, Norma may be able to tell the difference. Peter
Wow Paul! Thank you so much for converting what I used into bakers percentages. I just had my original print out sheet at market and would tweak a little each week. Then I got into trouble when I wanted to make a few more dough balls because I then didn't know what baker's percentages I used since I had changed stuff. Your the greatest for helping me! Norma
Norma,Can you advise how I would convert your current formula to make say, a 14 inch pizza? I'd like something I could use in the Blackstone.Thanks,Pete
Next is trying to nail Sally's New Haven, CT "Apizza" style...which for me is impossible with my electric oven.
Very good looking pies Norma...I've always been a fan of Three Brothers pizza in Seaside as far as boardwalk pizza...I wasn't partial to Marucas. But when it comes to tomato pies..the end all, be all IMO is DeLorenzos... That's my personal mission right now
I just talked to Trenton Bill and what he recalls about DeLorenzo sauce was that it was made with 6-in-1's and Red Pack whole tomatoes American style, not the Red Pack Italian style. He also said that maybe a little sugar is used in the sauce, but no herbs. Bill also said that the Maggio mozzarella used to be used, but he doesn't know what DeLorenzo's uses now.Norma
Pete,The dough calculation tools here on the forum are not hard to use. If you take the first dough formulation Paul posted at Reply 133 http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,25401.msg266219.html#msg266219 and use a size of a 14 pizza in the expanded dough calculation tool, or the Lehmann dough calculation tool this is what you will get. What Paul set forth for me for a 17.5 pizza.First Dough (1 @ 17.5" Pie), TF = 0.080Flour (100%): 330.56 g | 11.66 oz | 0.73 lbs Water (60.1%): 198.66 g | 7.01 oz | 0.44 lbs IDY (.25%): 0.83 g | 0.03 oz | 0 lbs | 0.27 tsp | 0.09 tbsp Salt (1.75%): 5.78 g | 0.2 oz | 0.01 lbs | 1.21 tsp | 0.4 tbsp Olive Oil (2.04%): 6.74 g | 0.24 oz | 0.01 lbs | 1.5 tsp | 0.5 tbsp Sugar (.89%): 2.94 g | 0.1 oz | 0.01 lbs | 0.74 tsp | 0.25 tbsp Total (165.03%): 545.52 g | 19.24 oz | 1.2 lbs | TF = 0.08 This is using the Lehmann dough calculation tool for a 14 pizza at: http://www.pizzamaking.com/dough_calculator.html but you can also use the expanded dough calculation tool at: http://www.pizzamaking.com/expanded_calculator.html Flour (100%): 211.56 g | 7.46 oz | 0.47 lbs Water (60.1%): 127.15 g | 4.48 oz | 0.28 lbs IDY (.25%): 0.53 g | 0.02 oz | 0 lbs | 0.18 tsp | 0.06 tbsp Salt (1.75%): 3.7 g | 0.13 oz | 0.01 lbs | 0.77 tsp | 0.26 tbsp Oil (2.04%): 4.32 g | 0.15 oz | 0.01 lbs | 0.96 tsp | 0.32 tbsp Sugar (.89%): 1.88 g | 0.07 oz | 0 lbs | 0.47 tsp | 0.16 tbsp Total (165.03%): 349.13 g | 12.32 oz | 0.77 lbs | TF = 0.08 When you want to make a different size pizza than is given in anyones formulation all you have to do is put all of the numbers in the dough calculation tool that are given, except the pizza size. All depending on how long you might want to cold ferment your dough ball you might need to up that amount of IDY.You might want to note the bowl residue compensation for any dough that might be left in the bowl or on the dough hook. I usually use a bowl residue compensation.What style of pizza do you want me make in your BS? Do you want more of a NY style pizza or do you want to make a Neapolitan style pizza.Norma
I remember it tasting like Maggio Mozzarella, but we saw Sargento bags at Hudson ave one day.
Thank you for your assistance Norma. You've made the dough calculators a bit less intimidating for me.I am constantly tinkering and trying out new formulas. In my black stone I will be attempting NY style and Neapolitan. I am a large fan of the Neapolitan bakes, but I do like to make pizza for my folks, and they are more keen on NY style bakes. Although I think if they were having NP pizzas that were made by a true craftsman and not simply what I'm able to produce that they may change their mind. With your tomato pie recipe I'm planning on staying true to form and keeping it kind of NY style.Although I am curious what cheese blend you use for this style of pizza. I will look back on this thread and determine what flour is being used most commonly. I have access to AP flour, Bread flour, and 00 currently. I do not know anyplace locally where I'd be able to purchase high gluten flour and would likely have to order that online.Pete
I had meant to make a tomato pie crust with a lesser protein flour and add VWG, but life got in the way right now. I still want to do that though.
Norma,I would be very interested in hearing why it is you would like to try a weaker flour and add VWG.I am currently experimenting with low carb pizza doughs using a flour substitute called Carbalose. Last nights dough included some VWG but I have no idea what I am doing just yet.Just interested in why you want to use VWG, thanks.
Norma,If you conduct a search of the Trenton/De Lorenzo thread at http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,7841.0.html using Maggio as the search term, you will get several hits. Based on those posts, it does indeed seem clear that De Lorenzo's at one time used the Maggio mozzarella cheese. That cheese was shredded and came in unmarked bags. It was later reported, at Reply 115 at http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,7841.msg45024/topicseen.html#msg45024, that the Maggio cheese was replaced by another cheese because of inconsistency problems. The Sargento cheese was mentioned, and a couple of us speculated that the new cheese was Grande cheese. Looking back now, I am not sure that the replacement cheese was Grande cheese only because Grande does not ordinarily use unmarked shredded cheese bags.As can be seen at http://www.maggiocheese.com/ , Maggio cheese products still exist. They are sold at retail in a multi-state area that includes Pennsylvania and New Jersey (http://www.maggiocheese.com/findus.html). However, as was previously reported in the Trenton thread, Maggio's was sold in 1998 to Crowley Foods. At the time, Maggio had been using a New Jersey company to make their cheese under contract, as was reported in the article at http://articles.philly.com/1998-07-15/business/25736696_1_crowley-foods-cheese-anniversary. I would be surprised if Crowley Foods is still making and selling the original Mazzio mozzarella cheese product that De Lorenzo's used. One can see the shredded cheese that De Lorenzo's now uses in the photo at http://www.delorenzostomatopies.com/images/dtp-shoot08-untouched/pages/100_3160_JPG.htm and, on a pizza, in the photo at http://www.delorenzostomatopies.com/images/dtp-shoot08-untouched/pages/100_3163_JPG.htm. It will also be noted that Maggio's has a foodservice division. However, if one looks at the products at http://www.maggiocheese.com/foodservice_selections.html, it will be seen that the only bagged mozzarella cheese is Part Skim Shredded Mozz, in 5-lb bags. From what I recall, De Lorenzo's was said to be using a pre-shredded whole milk mozzarella cheese.For your purposes in making tomato pies, there is no need to try to emulate the De Lorenzo's tomato pies. However, the De Lorenzo tomato pies might serve as a style to consider in your efforts to make your version, particularly with respect to the types of the pizza sauce and cheese emblematic of that style.Peter
Do you think I should try an experiment with one of your attempts at a clone De Lorenzo's dough to see what I think of it? If you do, what would be your favorite dough formulation to try. Maybe I would like a De Lorenzo's crust better than what I am making now. Who knows what I like best at this point in time. I keep changing my mind.

G20 Summit
Oral Questions
2:35 p.m.
Andrew Cash Davenport, ON
Mr. Speaker, a year later and Toronto is still waiting for the government to accept full responsibility for the fallout of the G20 mess. Some Toronto councillors are pushing for long-term solutions, but the immediate financial needs still require action. Last week, New Democrats met, for example, with the owner of the Horseshoe Tavern which is one of the businesses still waiting for compensation.
When will the government stop stonewalling, treat Toronto with respect, and get their compensation out the door quickly?
G20 Summit
Oral Questions
2:35 p.m.
Ottawa West—Nepean
John Baird Minister of Foreign Affairs
Mr. Speaker, this government has always treated the city of Toronto with respect, and let me tell members that on May 2 the people of Toronto showed their support and their respect for this government. Not only did we sweep the GTA with all but one, but we won the most seats in the city of Toronto.
I said to the member opposite when he asked this question last week, and I said to my friend from Parkdale—High Park, if there is any business, and the member provided the name of one, that is awaiting compensation, give it to me, I will be very happy to ensure that it is rectified as quickly as possible.
G20 Summit
Oral Questions
2:35 p.m.
Olivia Chow Trinity—Spadina, ON
Mr. Speaker, when the Conservatives rewarded their friends in Muskoka, no applications were required, no documentation was needed. However, in Toronto, they piled on paperwork and told Toronto businesses that they have to go into a process that is slow, bureaucratic, unfair and opaque, and then dismissed most of the claims or insulted them with a tiny amount.
What did Toronto businesses do to deserve such poor and shabby treatment?
G20 Summit
Oral Questions
2:40 p.m.
Ottawa West—Nepean
John Baird Minister of Foreign Affairs
Mr. Speaker, if there are any businesses in the city of Toronto that are waiting for compensation, as I said last week, and I will say again, I got the name of one from the member for Davenport, and if the member for Trinity—Spadina knows of any businesses that are awaiting a response, I understand there are four or five yet to be determined, we would be very happy to move as expeditiously as possible.
I can say this. Boy, oh, boy, in the last 30 years, the people in Toronto elected the best crop of MPs that we have seen in that city in a long time.
Border Infrastructure Fund
Oral Questions
2:40 p.m.
John Rafferty Thunder Bay—Rainy River, ON
Mr. Speaker, during tourist season in northwestern Ontario, visitors can wait more than three hours to cross the border.
For our communities, tourism is a key part of the economy. Yet, the government diverted $50 million from the border infrastructure fund to beautify communities in the minister's riding, using the fund as a private wish list, while ignoring border regions like northwestern Ontario.
Is the President of the Treasury Board finally ready to apologize?
Border Infrastructure Fund
Oral Questions
2:40 p.m.
Ottawa West—Nepean
John Baird Minister of Foreign Affairs
Mr. Speaker, I am very happy to correct the record. No such funds were diverted. We used the existing authorities in this fund to provide support under three specific categories.
The Auditor General has raised some legitimate concerns about the transparency and the clarity to the House of Commons in the approving of those estimates, and we have fully accepted her advice.
However, I am very pleased to clarify that not a single dollar was moved that otherwise would have been spent on border infrastructure for this project. So, I know he will be very pleased with that.
Search and Rescue
Oral Questions
2:40 p.m.
Judy Foote Random—Burin—St. George's, NL
Mr. Speaker, the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans wants us to believe that the closure of maritime search and rescue centres in St. John's and Quebec City will not affect lifesaving services.
However, yesterday, Winston Pitcher, the head of the Canadian Coast Guard Auxiliary in Newfoundland and Labrador, told the Prime Minister that these closures could delay rescues and put public safety at risk.
Where are the government's priorities? It makes massive increases to its own offices while cutting lifesaving rescue centres.
When will the minister admit a mistake has been made and start listening to search and rescue experts?
Search and Rescue
Oral Questions
2:40 p.m.
New Brunswick
Keith Ashfield Minister of Fisheries and Oceans and Minister for the Atlantic Gateway
Mr. Speaker, our government has been clear about finding efficiencies and aligning our resources, but we are absolutely not putting the lives of Canadians at risk. Our top priority will continue to be the safety and security of all Canadians.
Search and Rescue
Oral Questions
2:40 p.m.
Scott Simms Bonavista—Gander—Grand Falls—Windsor, NL
Mr. Speaker, once again, regarding the closure of the search and rescue centre in Newfoundland and Labrador, here is a quote: "A call centre? I am offended because it diminishes my role and the essential work that we do for human safety." Who said that? It was Merv Wiseman, maritime search and rescue coordinator and a former Conservative candidate.
Here is another quote:
The closure may have saved the Liberal government a few dollars, but Newfoundland and Labrador have had to suffer the consequences.
Who said that? The Prime Minister.
Will the regional minister for Newfoundland and Labrador, that is right, the member of Parliament for Labrador, rise in this House, finally, and condemn these cuts?
Search and Rescue
Oral Questions
2:40 p.m.
New Brunswick
Keith Ashfield Minister of Fisheries and Oceans and Minister for the Atlantic Gateway
Mr. Speaker, that is from a fine source, the former Liberal government that decimated the Canadian Coast Guard through its neglect.
Since 2006, our government has made unprecedented investments in the protection of Canadians to the tune of $1.4 billion invested in fleet renewal. In Newfoundland and Labrador, there has been a 33% increase in Canadian Coast Guard positions since we came to office. We have also relocated two of Canada's heaviest and most capable icebreakers, the Terry Fox and the Louis S. St-Laurent.
Oral Questions
2:40 p.m.
Joyce Murray Vancouver Quadra, BC
Mr. Speaker, 93-year old retired Major Gordon MacLean Logan, who was wounded six times during World War II, dedicated his life to serving Canadians.
For the past three years, he has had to pull teeth to speak to his Veterans Affairs case worker, thanks to a lack of resources. Is this how the Conservative government honours our veterans?
While Mr. Logan's health is failing, government advertising has exploded by 215%.
Can the minister please explain to Mr. Logan and his family how partisan overspending is helping him live with dignity?
Oral Questions
2:40 p.m.
Steven Blaney Minister of Veterans Affairs
Mr. Speaker, the member has raised an important issue.
We on this side of the House, and I hope on all sides of the House, care for the well-being of all of our veterans. This is why we have invested and keep investing in the health of our veterans, whether it be their mental or physical health.
We will keep on investing and will take care of all of our veterans here, today and tomorrow.
Foreign Investment
Oral Questions
2:45 p.m.
Peter Julian Burnaby—New Westminster, BC
Mr. Speaker, for months the government has been dragging its feet on the issue of foreign investment. In the meantime, the list of foreign companies that are reneging on their commitments through layoffs continues to grow: Vale Inco, Stelco and now Custom House in Victoria. We need new regulations governing foreign investment to determine whether takeovers are truly in the public interest and to determine what guarantees are required.
Will the minister develop these new regulations before—yes, before—deciding who the Toronto Stock Exchange will be sold to?
Foreign Investment
Oral Questions
2:45 p.m.
Christian Paradis Minister of Industry and Minister of State (Agriculture)
Mr. Speaker, we have been clear on this side of the House. We want to promote increased competition. Studying foreign investments is essential. We want to give consumers more choice. The hon. member is trying to mix different issues and muddy the waters. One thing is clear: we will continue to move forward with our policies in order to safeguard the economy and ensure that the economic recovery takes solid hold once and for all.
Foreign Investment
Oral Questions
2:45 p.m.
Peter Julian Burnaby—New Westminster, BC
Mr. Speaker, that is not an answer. The truth is that only two out of 13,500 takeovers have been blocked since Investment Canada was created. The takeovers of Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan and MacDonald Dettwiler were only stopped after the NDP held the government to account for its lack of transparency. We did the heavy lifting.
Now the minister has moved the deadline of the TMX takeover review into the summer when Parliament is not in session.
Will the government commit to acting now to establish a transparent public review of the Toronto Stock Exchange takeover bid?

Home of the George Mason University's Patriots basketball team, this approximately 10,000-seat indoor arena is better suited to hosting sporting events than hosting the big-time pop music acts that play here when passing through the D.C. area.
The pop shows tend to draw a massive high school and middle school crowd. The seats aren't painful, as far as stadium seats go, and the sightlines are decent. Unfortunately, the sound system can make even the best live performer sound like a low-fi indie rock band at times. If you care about the acoustic quality of live shows, be forewarned.

Discussion in 'Patriots Draft Talk' started by AndyJohnson, Sep 1, 2012.
Playing right now on ESPN vs Ohio U.
On one hand,I Hope that O'Brien succeeds....BUT
I hate Penn State with a passion and don't really care.
Go Bobcats, Penn State football should have been shut down.
We are all entitled to our opinions but I am not going to wish for the downfall of a football program that is vital to maintaining an economy of an entire region just because of the transgressions of one man and the negligence of others.
The rise of Penn State from the ashes (the Freeh Report is hardly basis to destroy a program) under BOB's direction would be a great story, IMHO.
Neither O'B nor any of the football playesr have done anything wrong the perps are in jail, dead or under investigation.
If a region is reliant on a college football program for its maintaining it economy, then perhaps the people of that region have some changes to make in their lives.
I'm rooting for Penn State because BOB seems like an honest, hardworking person and the players who stayed are innocent. As PF13 wrote, the perps are gone and their names are damaged forever.
I'm not going to fault the players and staff that are currently on the field for the mistakes of the past.
Yup - Penn State will always now have a taint - but no reason to drop any hate on the current kids or O'Brien.
This went way beyond the football program - it was the university - the people in charge of the institution itself that let abuse take place.
Even shutting down the entire university would never right the wrong.
BooB took Brady's snap call "Alpha go" to Penn St.
Anyways. Go Bobcats.
Nothing against the players, BOB or the rest of the coaching staff but the cultists in the stands and around Happy Valley who apologized for and still support Joe Paterno are the reason why I don't want this team to win a single game this year.
BooB loses his first game.
This is very true but I wish there was a way to not root against those guys while hoping that all the morons who rioted in favor of JoePa don't see their team win a game for the next 50 years.
Penn st needs a lot of work. That one td should of been intercepted. Horrible play by the defense.
The best but hardest thing to do is forgive.
Edit: Temple Owl here. I really hope Temple gives a beat down of epic proportion on Sept 22. But unlikely. One can hope.
Why was he hired? I never understood that.
He wasn't a great offensive co-ordinator. Period. I'd go as far as to say he was a MEDIOCRE OC. I mean I know our forums can get a little bombastic, but nearly everyy week you would see dozens of people saying how ***** he was... and there was def a fair amount of truth to a lot of those claims.
I wasn't the biggest BOB fan but I definitely think he was much better than mediocre with potential to be great. Each year, he improved in some way. That said, I still agree with you about his hire being questionable but for different reasons I guess. Personally, I wouldn't hire any coach from the BB tree as HC under any circumstance after seeing Weis/Crennel/Mangina/JMD in action.
It wasn't just because of the transgressions of one man and the negligence of others now was it PittPatriot? It was the systematic cover up of a heinous sexual predator against children by those in positions of power over "bad PR". IMO PSU got off lightly. If it were up to me PSU would and should have been hammered harder than SMU.
I sympathise with BOB and the football team but not the institution.
Come on. We're patriot fans. We hold the current raiders responsible for a preseason injury in 1978.
Has a habit of blowing early leads. Did not expect any more of him...
How did PS do today?

Holiday Party Guide 2011: 3 Dramatic New Themes
Looking for a new twist for an end-of-the-year corporate gathering? We asked event producers to dream up three new concepts and share the resources they would use to make them happen.
By Compiled by Jana Schiowitz Posted September 15, 2011, 7:56 AM EDT

I found Dennis the Menace, he now has a job as system administrator for a hosting company. Scenario: client has a problem with a server becoming unavailable (cause unknown) and has it restarted. MySQL had some page corruption in the InnoDB tablespace.
The hosting provider, being really helpful, goes in as root and first deletes ib_logfile* then ib* in /var/lib/mysql. He later says "I am sorry if I deleted it. I thought I deleted the log only. Sorry again." Now this may appear nice, but people who know what they're doing with MySQL will realise that deleting the iblogfiles actually destroys data also. MySQL of course screams loudly that while it has FRM files it can't find the tables. No kidding!
Then, while he's been told to not touch anything any more, and I'm trying to see if I can recover the deleted files on ext3 filesystem (yes there are tools for that), he goes in again and puts an ibdata1 file back. No, not the logfiles – but he had those somewhere else too. The files get restored and turn out to be two months old (no info on how they were made in the first place but that's minor detail in this grand scheme). All the extra write activity on the partition would've also made potential deleted file recovery more difficult or impossible.
This story will still get a "happy" ending, using a recent mysqldump to load a new server at a different hosting provider. Really – some helpfulness is not what you want. Secondary lesson: pick your hosting provider with care. Feel free to ask us for recommendations as we know some excellent providers and have encountered plenty of poor ones.

Various vitamin and mineral supplements are observed to increase mortality risk in older women, with the exception of calcium, which decreases risk

Implications for practice and research
■ Antioxidant use could be harmful to older women.
■ Calcium use is associated with lower mortality risk in older women.
■ Dietary supplements should be used to treat symptomatic nutrient deficiency disease.
■ Further research is needed to explore the relationship between dietary supplement use and mortality risks.
Within the context of the Iowa Women's Health Study, Mursu et al assessed the relationship between dietary supplement use and total mortality risk among a large, population-based sample of older women. Previously, antioxidant use …

Jack�s Abby Brewing in Framingham is once again growing facial hair for a good cause.
The Jack�s Abby Brewing team is taking part in Movember, where men grow mustaches to help raise awareness, and money, to help research men�s health issues.
Each member of the team is growing a mustache this month as part of the Movember event. I�ve seen some of the members� mustaches and a lot of them are not good. They are giving up their own personal appearance to raise money for a good cause. (Sam Hendler in particular really needs some upper lip Rogaine).
Last year, the Jack�s Abby team raised more than $5,400, and this year they hope to top that amount. Click here to donate.

Valentine's Day has a special place in my heart-not because I'm overly romantic or anything but because my birthday happens to be the day after! Each year I get spoiled for two different reasons and I have to admit I love it.
That being said-I've never decorated for Valentine's day in the past. I've always been to busy celebrating my birthday to think about the "love" holiday. This year however I decided to put up a few things including this mason jar LOVE.
I am slightly obsessed with mason jars and everything you can do with them. Sometimes I wish the hubbs and I could be married again just so I can have a reception centered around mason jars-it would be awesome. My husband and I have decided to not spend money on anything other than the necessities for the month of January so I knew that my Valentine's day craft would have to be free for me.
Inspiration hit for this when I was doing the dishes when I remember seeing this post about tinting jars on Pinterest. So I stopped doing the dishes and started doing this project instead. Here's what you need to do-
-4 Mason Jars (or any other jars that strike your fancy)
-Food Coloring
-Modge Podge
-Card board
-Wax Paper
To start off mix your food coloring with a little bit of water-I did about a tablespoon of water.
Then pour the food coloring into the mason jar along with some modge podge-about a tablespoon-and mix it all together.
Then holding the jar over another bowl swirl the mixture until you cover the entire mason jar. Pour the excess liquid into the bowl. Then set your mason jars face down on your cardboard and let them sit like that for 20-30 minutes.
After you've let them drain set your oven to warm and place the jars on some wax paper. Put the jars in the oven face down for 10 minutes and then turn them over and leave them in the oven face up for another 30 minutes.
Next, using my Cricut I cut out the letters and put them on the mason jars.
Now if we were spending the money I'd head to the store and pick up some cute white flowers to go in the vases. Either way I love how they turned out!
Thanks again Erin for including my in your Valentine's Day series!
Check out all these fun places to party!

NO British Vote for Conclave!
Its a bizzare chain of events to be fair.
Historically speaking the Roman Catholic ArchBishop of Westminster is the Cardinal for England, and the Roman Catholic ArchBishop of Edinburgh is Cardinal for Scotland and Wales.
The Roman Catholic Church forces ArchBishops out of their Cathedra at Seventy Five Years of age, and immediately install a new ArchBishop...However, Bishop Emeritus forever keep their Cardinal Status...and are elligable to vote in a Conclave until they are Eighty Years of age.
This technically leaves the vatican with a slight issue of when to Elivate the ArchBishop of Westminster, to the Position of Cardinal...because if the Elivation happens in the first five years of his Pontificate, then were a Conclave to be called...BOTH the Current and Previous ArchBishops of Westminster would technically speaking both be Cardinals, and Both be elliagble to vote.
Such a situation happened when Cardinal Cormac of Westminster gave way to Vincent...HOWEVER...Although Cormac has passed Eighty, and thus can not vote...Vincent hasnt been Elivated...and thus isnt a Cardinal yet...he will probably be the first Cardinal of the new pope...but that will be too late for the conclave that ellected him
This bizzare twist means no English Cardinal will be within the Conclave.
The Cardinal for Scotland and Wales has passed his seventy fifth birthday and was due to retire at the end of the year, but this week he became accused of sexual abuse...and so the Vatican have told him to go immediately and NOT to bother coming to conclave...because, obviously, he is an elligable voter for the next five years, but they do not want him to ellect the new pope whilst under investigate...His replacement hasnt even been made archbishop yet, let alone elivated.
So...there is no representation for the Churches of the United Kingdom in the Papal Conclave due to begin...apparently they are dropping like flies...one of the Cardinals in the Orient has said his health is so poor he can not get to Rome and so will not go into Conclave...and there is a campaign to try to stop the Roman Catholic Cardinal of Los Angeles from going with accusations of helping sex abuse priests.
The Pontificate of Benedict will terminate around sundown on February 28th. After that the Roman Curia will take control of the See and declair "Sede Vacante" which means "The Empty Seat" in reference to the Throne of the Bishop of Rome...which is the actual Mother Church of the Roman Pope (it is NOT Saint Peters Basilica in the Vatican...infact I believe its not in the Vatican State at all, but truely is in Rome) Benedict will be known as Bishop Emeritus of Rome.
Traditionally the Conclave can be as long as 20 days after Sede Vacante begins...but Benedict did change the law last week, to basically say that Conclave should begin as soon as all elligable Cardinals who want to vote, reach Rome.
Conclave will take as long as it takes...and then the Vatican will release "Habamus Papem" meaning "We have a Pope" and the new insignia of the ellected member, plus his Papal Name will be created. The Roman Curia will then release the See of Peter, and the Bishop of Rome will take posession of his Cathedral in Rome, followed by Saint Peters Basilica
then...we start alllllll over again
Just to remind you....this was Habemus Papem back in 2005 when Joseph Ratzinger was ellected as Benedict 16th
It starts with a slide show that covers the death of John Paul 2, Sede Vacante 2005, and Conclave 2005, before Habemus papem
Mindue a Conclave is nothing compared to this
Look at the birds eye view of the nave of Saint Peters Basilica with those huge stands in collegic formation with the bishops and cardinals...and what looks like the ENTIRE Roman Catholic church...that is one HUGE Procession on the way in...and I have seen some huge processions

Scott A. Walton, 42, of Stilson Hill Road, Sugar Grove, passed away September 30, 2013.
He was born March 23, 1971 in Warren, a son of Bonnie McChesney Shirey of Pittsfield and the late Albert Walton. Scott was a 1989 graduate of Youngsville High School. He served in the United States Air Force during Desert Storm. He had been employed most recently at Joy Global, working as an assembly mechanic and was a member of the International Association of Machinists. This fall, he enrolled in classes at Jamestown Community College with hopes to become a nurse because he was so deeply impacted by the wonderful nurses who helped to care for his son.
Scott had a deep faith in the Lord, and relished being a member of the family of believers at Otterbein United Methodist Church in Pittsfield. At Otterbein, he diligently served on the Leadership Council and passionately played the drums for the worship team. Scott's interest's also included taking pictures, singing and listening to music including many wonderful memories of having been a DJ with his father. He admired God's creation, liked backpacking, and was happiest while being outdoors in the sunshine. He was a loving, dedicated, and attentive father and husband. Scott took genuine interest in everyone he met and touched the lives of countless people. He will be deeply missed by his many friends and his family.
In addition to his mother and stepfather, Charles Shirey, Scott is survived by his loving wife Emma Heberlein Walton, whom he married December 27, 2003 in Youngsville; his six month old son, Conrad; a sister Ellen Cressley of Black Mountain, NC; two stepsisters: Peggy Shirey of Warren and Patty Kirkwood of Youngsville; a stepbrother Mike Shirey of Warren; maternal grandfather, Arthur McChesney of Youngsville; paternal grandmother Arlene WaltonStrickland of Grapevine, TX; his father and motherin law, Dennis and Carol Heberlein of Erie; his brother and sisterinlaw, Dennis and Vickey Heberlein of Bristolville, OH; and many other family members and special friends.
In addition to his father, Scott was preceded in death by his stepmother, Mary Mulvey Walton; his paternal grandfather Wilbur Walton; his maternal grandmother Ruth McChesney; and his paternal step grandfather William Strickland.
Friends will be received on Thursday from 58 p.m. at the Otterbein United Methodist Church in Pittsfield. A funeral service will be held there on Friday at 11:00 a.m. with the Rev. Steve Gruver, pastor, and the Rev. Tom Strandburg, officiating. Burial will follow in the Stilson Hill Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggests that donations be made to a memorial fund for Scott's son Conrad. Gifts can be sent to Otterbein United Methodist Church, 258 Dalrymple Street, Pittsfield, Pa., 16340 to be held until a bank account can be set up at a local bank.
The Nelson Funeral Home & Cremation Services in Youngsville have been entrusted with all arrangements. Condolences to the family may be made at www.nelsonfuneralhome.

Posted on 05/31/2012 5:47:24 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican
President Barack Obama and Gov. Mitt Romney may be dead even in the polls, but some pundits insist the president will prevail on Election Day because 2012 is the new 2004.
The story line is President George W. Bush had roughly the same numbers at this point in 2004 that Mr. Obama has today. Mr. Bush went on to win a narrow victory by building a massive ground game that focused on the GOP's base and by relentlessly attacking his opponent, Sen. John Kerry. Mr. Obama is executing the same strategy. What worked for Mr. Bush, the theory goes, will work for Mr. Obama.
The only problem is the theory is based on a false premise.
There are some similarities between 2004 and 2012. Mr. Obama's current job approval and personal favorability ratings are roughly the same as Mr. Bush's in 2004. So are the head-to-head matchups: In mid-May 2004, Mr. Bush trailed Mr. Kerry in Gallup, 46%-48%, while in the most recent Gallup tracking Mr. Obama is tied with Mr. Romney, 46%-46%.
There are crucial differences between the two elections. It is a myth that 2004 was all about maximizing Republican turnout. The Bush campaign also successfully sought to win as many independents as possible and to poach elements of the Democratic coalition. In the end, Mr. Bush received 44% of the Hispanic vote, carried the largest share (24%) of the Jewish vote for any Republican since 1988, nearly erased the gender gap with 48% of the women's vote, and was supported by 11% of black voters, up from 8% in 2000.
If Mr. Obama makes this election mostly about energizing the Democratic baseas he clearly intends tohe will further alienate swing voters who elected him in 2008 and then turned on his policies with a vengeance in 2010.
(Excerpt) Read more at online.wsj.com ...
Bush had a successful 9/11 response, a good economy and at that time, a strong position on foreign policy and way.
Obama has a disastrous economy and not much else to run on. He's completely lost the independents. Even if he is fortunate enough to motivate his base to match the enthusiasm of 2008, he cannot recapture the independents and does not have a demotivated opposition this time. This is definitely not 2004.
President Barack Obama and Gov. Mitt Romney may be dead, even in the polls.
This claptrap from the guy - Rove - who a month ago said Romney was the one in serious trouble if the election were held that day Obama would win easily. Can we do a graphic of Karl Rove's likeness as a weathervane?
This claptrap from the guy - Rove - who a month ago said Romney was the one in serious trouble if the election were held that day Obama would win easily. Can we do a graphic of Karl Rove's likeness as a weathervane?
If that's true, and I don't dispute it, why then do so many Freepers assume a Romney defeat?
Because their guy didn't win the primary. So obviously Obama's going to win.
Rove's a has-been, maybe a never-was.
Whatever is going to happen, it's not going to be predicted by Karl Rove.
Isn't he well-off enough to retire? He really should retire.
Go fishing, Karl.
Leave us alone.
Rove was right. Back then, Obama would have won, according to the polling. The numbers are what they are.
I'm with Rush on this one and I happen to think that this won't even be close, but the polling is currently showing us otherwise. Rove knows that the trends are showing a momentum swing towards the republican camp but all that can change with the events.
I expect stat heads and numbers guys like Rove to analyze this every week and report the findings along with how they "feel".
I suspect 2012 will be 1932, but in reverse.
Rove is a fat-faced nobody...FOKR
And Kerry was a sorry excuse of a candidate. Bush should have beat him even handier than he did. I don't care for Romney, but so far he looks like he's going to make a game of it.
Apples and oranges here, as we've never had an incumbent and obvious-to-many marxist out to destroy this nation. That said, 0's path to winning is only by treachery. The ends justifies the means, and he certainly has a bunch of hidden committees figuring out what kind of crisis to foment, and the timing rollout, to maximize his chances. Along with the usual voter fraud and boxes of ballots to be found on election eve.
"Back in 2004, the consensus on FR was that Karl was "magnificent"."
I remember that...and I do not retract my previous comment :)
>>>I suspect 2012 will be 1932, but in reverse.<<<
I've had the same suspicion, although perhaps it's just hopeful thinking.
I see Obama as the end of the line of the New Deal. Obama has tried many FDR tactics, including attacking the Supreme Court, flooding the executive with alphabet agencies and programs, spending to "prime the pump," creating a "brain trust" of helpful "czars" to assist his program, and unrelenting leftist hatred of the rich, the Constitution, and tradition. Obama is seemingly hellbent on instituting FDR's Four Freedoms, for instance. Obama's also using Bush as his own personal Hoover. The trouble with all this politically is that the problems today are the creation of New Deal (and Great Society) policy.
So we have Romney. A rich guy. A flip-flopper. Not really a conservative. Someone from the Northeast, from a rich family. FDR was seen as a lightweight himself at the time, and there was a lot of mistrust and suspicion of the guy by the Democrats. When he got into office, though, there was a whirlwind of change.
My hope is that Romney, if elected, will metaphorically rip off his suit and institute a conservative revolt. It would be a surprise, but the spring of 1933 was a surprise, too. Romney's past may not tell us much when he steps into the Oval Office and has the power of the presidency at his fingertips. At least I hope so. And as I've been told in the past, hope is not a strategy.
God help us.
I'm anticipating that within 60 days of Romney's inauguration, we'll witness something similar. Romney will have to blaze ground different from FDR and his followers because it was their solutions that caused these problems.
I suspect there will be a total paradigm shift and a total break with the past. Can mild mannered Clark Kent Romney rip off his suit to become Superman? We'll see.
Because they really, really hate Mitt Romney.
Obama is running as a self-acknowledged leftist.
The last two guys to do that were Mondale and McGovern.
Of course, neither of those two had the advantage of running as an incumbent...
Gee....that's quite a screed from a nobody guy (or gal) but then this is kinda like a blog so anything goes.
When you're making mid-six figures on your political smarts, get back to me. Until then I'll consider the words of the guru over yours.
"Rove was right. Back then, Obama would have won, according to the polling. The numbers are what they are.
Im with Rush on this one and I happen to think that this wont even be close, but the polling is currently showing us otherwise. Rove knows that the trends are showing a momentum swing towards the republican camp but all that can change with the events.
I expect stat heads and numbers guys like Rove to analyze this every week and report the findings along with how they feel."
Then how does Rove help himself by having to change his tune about what's happening? If he has no idea what the pulse is from one month to the next, he's no more an analyst that just a copy reader. He sells himself on his "expertise", and expertise in analyzing trends isn't to just parrot data from one month to the next. he just reads the latest batch of polls and then goes on TV and sells the results he reads as though he himself had been wise to it all along. After all, this facet is what compels Fox News to pay him big bucks - they're buying his alleged expertise in being able to be IN FRONT of the curve, which he almost never is. If he has to keep changing his point of view based on the last month's polling he's not an analyst - he's just a reporter. The difference between Rush and Rove is that Rush hasn't budged much from his belief that Obama is in serious trouble and always has been. Rove is the weathervane I think he is, swaying with what he reads and sells the results as though he was able to predict it all along.
Karl Rove: Best known for taking what should have been two landslide victories and turning them into the narrowest of escapes. Seriously, George W, Bush should have won 2000 and 2004 easily but Rove's bungling almost cost both elections.
That was then:
This is now:
This is true.
The last few 'Rats who managed to actually become incumbents all pretended to be much more centrist than they actually were (Obama, Clinton, Carter).
Of the three, Obama is the one who has really let the mask slip as he heads into his re-election campaign.
My point is that self-acknowledged leftism has been abandoned by the 'Rats as an electoral strategy for decades, and for good reason.
Scores of millions will NOT vote for Bishop-backstabber
Milt Romney, the presumptuous author of RomneyCARE,
but will in its stead write in the name: Gov. Palin.
If you're going to judge political smarts by paycheck size then you should start following Opra.
As many have pointed out over the years, here in FR and elsewhere, the guy with "political smarts" transformed a landslide in 2004 to a near-defeat.
Maybe I'm wrong in believing that's what happened (though I don't think so), but I'm not alone in believing that's what happened.
Your reverence for his "political smarts" is based on what, exactly?
How much money he's made?
And BTW, for the record, my post #8 was not a screed, it was just a simple post, with an opinion that you obviously didn't like.
Here is screed:
a : a lengthy discourse b : an informal piece of writing (as a personal letter) c : a ranting piece of writing
I have written screeds here in FR, but post #8 is hardly a screed.
You should read more; it might do you some good.
You are blaming the victims of Team Romney.
Have YOU forgotten Mr. RomneyCARE's Dirty Tricks in 2008?
"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"
"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"
"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"
"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"
"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"
And THAT is the tip of the proverbial iceberg:
Novak: "Fred Thompson drop-out rumors traced to Romney campaign"
Said Novak: "The rumors were traced in part to Mitt Romney's campaign,
trying to stir up strife between McCain and Thompson."
"Despite outspending his rivals by huge margins throughout the primaries,
(Mitt Romney, Carpetbagger UT,CA,MA,NH,Mexico) lost Iowa, South Carolina, Florida and California.
The only primaries he won were in Michigan, where Dad was governor; LDS states;
and a few states on Super Tuesday in which his California-obsessed rivals
couldn't spare the cash to advertise.
Only John Connolly in 1968 had a worse cash-to-delegates ratio.
And John McCain rightly did not like Romney's tactics during the primaries.
(W)hen (Romney's early leads) started slipping away, he resorted to unfair,
distorted, scorched-earth negative ads, betting that his opponents couldn't
afford to spend enough for the truth to catch up to his charges."
Now he's just a bastard.
