Lovely boot
"Great price for a cute boot. Happy for the small size 5 1/2 available!"

A LOT of Fun, but not for a day of walking!
"I had been wanting to try a pair of high-heeled boots and these were a fun and stylish splurge! As other reviewers state, these are not easy to get off, but not really a problem for me to put on. I didn't think they ran small through the calf - but I have a smaller frame.I wouldn't say that they are the most comfortable boot, but I don't have a problem wearing them for an evening out (as long as it doesn't require a ton of walking). The color is gorgeous and the leather looks beautiful with wear. They are a little bit sexy with just enough 'practical' to make them wearable."

If they had a zipper, maybe
"These boots have a very high heel. This much is obvious. What is not obvious is just how hard this boot is to get on, since these boots have no zipper. You have to be a ballerina to get your foot past the VERY narrow ankle. I did manage to get them on to try them out. The calf area is generous, and the color is nice, but the boots bunched unattractively at the ankle and I needed help to get them off. They are going back."

Beautiful, but not true to size
"I was really excited for these boots and couldn't wait to try them on. Unfortunately, they were about one size too big... I'm an 8.5, so that is the size I ordered, but they were far too big.So even though they look great and the price was incredible, I am returning them."

GDFD No. 59: It was a goal
Ryan Lambert
February 06 2010 03:32PM
Welcome to the Game Day Fire Drill, for this, Calgary's 59th game of the season on Feb. 6, 2010.
It's Daymond Langkow's 1000th game and that's kind of a big deal. Did you know he has played more than a third of his career (374 games) in Calgary? It was a little surprising to me to realize the number was that high, but it makes sense.
Anyway, Calgary is maybe starting to cobble together a nice little run, eh? As Jean pointed out earlier in the day, these Flames might be starting to give us hope and, in turn, proving that the Phaneuf and Jokinen trades were exactly what this team needed to get it all together. Two games, with six goals for and only two against, since both apparent malcontents were shipped out of town, and the new guys are playing admirably as well. Every one that isn't named Chris Higgins has a point (assists for White, Mayers and Hagman; goals for Kotalik and Stajan). Sounds good.
But beyond that, and perhaps more importantly, the defense doesn't look completely inept any more. Now granted, these two games were against the Hurricanes and Panthers, so I'm not engraving Cory Sarich's name onto a Stanley Cup just yet, but 15.5 shots allowed per game is a good jumping-off point.
I think Flames fans not get too hopeful over two wins over bad teams or anything, especially with the way Detroit's footsteps are getting louder all the time. But even if this team doesn't make the playoffs (and unless it wins two from every three for the rest of the year, it's unlikely that it will), then at least we might have hope for next season after all.
And really, that's more than you could say a week ago.
The Calgary Flames (29-21-8 for 66 points. Tied for seventh in the West, third in the Northwest) and the Tampa Bay Lightning (24-21-11 for 59 points. Tied for seventh in the East, second in the Southeast).
5 p.m. Mountain time and 7 p.m. Eastern time. All other time zones should prepare for a cuteness overload.
St. Pete Times Forum, Tampa, Florida.
Calgary is 15-8-5 on the road this year, and have won three of the last four overall. The Lightning are 15-6-6 at home, and are 5-1-1 in their last seven.
What (to hate about the Lightning)
Vinny Lecavalier — I will never not hate him for that Stanley Cup final. He was just so unstoppable and it was infuriating. It is, as a consequence, making me very happy that he's not living up to this hilariously huge contract.
Antero Niittymaki — He is quietly having a very, very good season. Especially for being on such a bad team (Tampa's a minus-20 in goal differential), his stats are outstanding at 2.46/.919. And it gets worse: he's 5-0-1 in his last six starts, and allowed two goals or less in all of them. His save percentage in that run: .963. Ridiculous.
Everything — You remember 2004. I hate the Bolts. >:(
Because it's Lanks' big day. Enjoy the game and send your congrats (again) in the comments section.
TLP - when are you going to get an avatar and reveal to us your beauty? Look at me for example - I am wearing a nice red hat!
Grapes said it best tonight when he was talking about why Phanuef got traded. To paraphrase "he got too big for his britches in Calgary, thought he was a rock star and Daryl had no choice to move him."
Well said Don.
I saw coaches corner too - I thought Cherry was bang on too - which is rare
You don't ordinarily agree with Grapes? I think he's great

Throughout this journey we have been following the path of the Vikings -- from Iceland, to Greenland, across the Davis Strait to Vinland (now called Labrador). The Strait has been merciful these last 24 hours and we are now approaching the coast of Labrador, headed for the Torngat National Park, one of the remotest regions in Canada.
There is a gentle roll to the ship that induces a certain somnolence. But there isn't much time for sleep. On sea days the education agenda is full and today we returned to some ideas we discussed in Reykjavik at the beginning of this journey.
There we met Iceland's President, Olafur Ragnar Grimsson, at his official residence, a small Danish colonial style house on the edge of the city. Fronted by an old whitewashed stone church with a terra cotta roof, the house sits on the ruins of a 10th Century Viking church. We crammed into a reception room, drinking coke out of crystal wine glasses. The walls were lined with Icelandic art and the sun poured in through the windows. President Grimsson was immaculate in a well cut, dark suit and tie. We were in our finest expedition wear -- blue SOI t-shirts, jeans, name tags and track shoes.
The President's words touched many of the students. He was thoughtful, clear and concise and made a strong case for both the importance of the Arctic Council, of which Iceland is an active member, and why Arctic climate change matters to the rest of the world. He called the Arctic a "modern laboratory" for solving problems and pointed the peaceful engagement between states and Indigenous through the Arctic Council as a positive example in a troubled world.
"Become active in the debate and bring the knowledge you learn here back to your own community in any way you can," he said.
We're all used to politicians making pretty speeches, and teenagers have a radar for insincere adults that any parent can appreciate. But President Grimsson connected with these young people. The lined up to talk to him and have their pictures taken. The consensus was they had been talked to, not at. The students continue to refer to that meeting as one of the highlights of the trip so far.
And the President's words made our job a little easier today, on the steel-grey sea half-way between Greenland and Labrador. He provided an excellent segue into a discussion about the role of the Arctic Council and the organization of a "mock Arctic Council" exercise. The goal is to have the students debate real issues and, if possible, develop a statement that could be presented to the Arctic Council at some future date. The students have lots of ideas and have organized themselves into country and Indigenous Peoples' delegations. We will hold the debate later, somewhere along the remote Labrador coast.

ePEN uses the same principles of professional electrolysis, but without the needle and the pain. With ePEN, you wont have any pitting or scarring either. These are common side effects of needle electrolysis. ePEN can be used safely and effectively on all skin types.
Contents Include:
Apply conductive gel (included) to the treatment area. Insert the cotton bud into its holder. Dip the cotton into the gel and apply to the treatment area. Small pulses of completely safe electrical energy pass through the gel and onto the cotton bud. When the cotton is applied to the treatment area, this energy passes through to the hair follicle. The water and salt solution are then chemically changed to sodium hydroxide, which slowly destroys the hair root and papilla. This allows for painless and permanent removal of the hair.
The hands-free conductive gel pads are used for larger areas, but work the same way as the cotton bud treatment. Simply apply the pads to your face or body, sit back, and relax. ePen will do the rest.
Based in New York City, Verseo's motto is simply "health and beauty direct". Always forward-thinking, Verseo specializes in professional products for hair care, hair loss, hair removal and even tanning. The collection includes the popular ePen Electrolysis Pen.
Hmm. Sceptical But Still Trying.Sceptical, thought Id try, bought from store late December 07. Body pads stay on for 2 x 10 mins the first day and 1 x 10 min session the next. Large pads are aprox 4 x 10cm, you can use 2 at once. Thats about 6 to 8 goes to do say a brazilian, takes a LONG time and you have to pluck out each hair youve treated (I cheated & waxed underarms). I dont believe anyone could effectively use this for a large area like legs or arms or a mans back/chest & a brazilian is pushing it (unless youre a contortionist, wax, dont even think about tweezers).Ie concentrated on toes, upper lip, underarm and the odd stray. There are definate bald spots in underarms, a couple of strays I treated first have not grown back in 2 months and maybe the lip hair is thinner, BUT when you read their hair growth cycles in the book... so could just be that folicle resting.Very time consuming.Their tweezers are unusable.Goes through the batteries pretty quick.Lights & beeps play up & you dont know what they mean.Tingles a bit but didt hurt (metalic taste doing lip)Press stud clip attachments come off sometimes.Guarantees run out before you can accurately assess.Pack of replacement pads $30, had to buy new after 1 month!Still not sure, guess it would take about a year to accurately test this product. Also you wont look groomed cause youre not doing other hair removal methods to save the hair for the E Pen.....IF gets rid of the toe hair and the odd strays, Id probably be satisfied.Feb 12, 2008Lilly / Melbourne

It WorksI love this product! I have read several bad reviews on this product after I had already purchaced it for myself as a Christmas present. I first tried it on my toes thinking that was an ok place to start and now the hair is hardly there its thinner and less noticable now and ive only used it a few times! This is a GREAT product! I have also found that on other areas of the body while using the pads when i pluck the hair out that has been treated it dosnt hurt. I also have a few single hairs that were bothering me that it has totally taken care of so theres proof right there it works! Just needs some patience for the hair cycles. Thanks for making such a wonderful useful easy and affordable product! I wish i had before and after pictures but i dont.Jan 14, 2008Sara / Fort Leavenworth

Don't Waste Your MoneyI used the epen for around a year on various parts of my body. While using it the hair grew back thinner but that is just because you need to pluck the hairs out that you "treat". After stopping and shaving again the hair is back as thick and dark as ever before. I read bad reviews before buying and thought that maybe those people just didnt do it right. I followed the instructions exactly word for word. This product is the worst and I cant believe it is still being sold. I would love to get my money back.Nov 12, 2007Anonymous

Works Fine For Meyou have to keep the hair short for this product to work! there are a lot of hair follicles per sqr cm, obviously not all producing hair at the same time so re growth is inevitable, so persverence is needed! not only does the instruction book tell you this but so will your hair stylist or beauty therapist! there is a tinglig sensation when you use e-pen and i have noticed the hair that has re grown isnt as strong as it wouldve been previously. you have to physically remove the hairs from the follicle as they wont fall out on their own and the e-pen wont do it for you! i have noticed a big difference in the reduced volume of re growth and there is no pain at all!!! i am very happy with my purchace and would reccomend it to anyone.Sep 16, 2007Gail / W/Yorkshire England

What Is Worse Than Horrible?Call me stupid but even after seeing mostly negative reviews I gave it a shot because I thought I might be that 1 in a hundred it works okay for and I was growing tired of electrolysis and the time and money that consumed. Was I ever wrong! This thing not only doesnt work it cant even be used as a doorstop. Unless you have enough money to throw away on something that only a paid shill would say works avoid this. Just dont buy it. It is as big a scam as any out there and I know because I was someone that fell for it.Aug 5, 2007Amanda F. / R.I.

Not Even Worth The 1 Star!!!!I am soooo peeved that I have wasted my money on this total actual piece of crap and am really annoyed that I didnt take the time to do my research and read reviews like these before I bought the RORT!!! You might as well not even use the stupid thing because all you are doing is wasting precious time standing there plucking hairs out and irrating the skin when you miss a single hair!! Consequently I now have a rash on my skin where I plucked my hair out! DO NOT buy this - I cannot even believe it can be possible for someone to make money out of telling people to pluck their hairs out and just put together some BS!!! NOT HAPPY!!!Apr 12, 2007Toni / Australia

Energy Efficient Shades, Blinds & Window Treatments
- Be kind to your pocketbook, lower bills
- Reduce energy needs
- Thermal picks maintain inside temps
- Absorb outside heat & cold
- Block UV rays, protect furnishings
Add energy efficiency to your home by choosing the right window coverings. An insulating window shade will quickly pay for itself by lowering your heating and cooling bills. Cellular shades are the best insulator with year-round efficiency, and shutters are also a great choice. Roman shades and custom drapery with thermal lining also provide good insulation. Remember that shades must be closed to provide insulation, so choose a fabric opacity that fits your lighting needs. Solar screen shades provide view-through and summertime efficiency but should be paired with another treatment for nighttime privacy and winter insulation.

A hydrosalpinx is a damaged fallopian tube that is filled with fluid. When a previous infection injures a fallopian tube, it often causes the end of the tube to close. Glands produce a clear, watery fluid inside the tube that would normally be secreted and then reabsorbed; however, damaged tubes cannot reabsorb this fluid, so it builds up. Once the fallopian tubes are completely blocked, pregnancy is nearly impossible.
A hydrosalpinx is usually caused by a pelvic infection or inflammatory disease that spread through the cervix and uterus to the fallopian tubes. These types of diseases, such as gonorrhea and chlamydia, can cause sever symptoms, mild symptoms or no symptoms at all, and if left untreated, they can cause significant damage to the reproductive organs. Scar tissue, IUDs, endometriosis, childbirth and abortions can also cause a hydrosalpinx.
A hydrosalpinx can be one-sided, but infections usually affect both tubes and cause significant damage. For women with a hydrosalpinx on both sides, the only possible way for them to conceive "naturally" is through surgery.
Infertility is not the only result of a hydrosalpinx. It can also decrease a woman's chances of undergoing successful cycles of fertility treatment, even those that don't require use of the fallopian tubes. Fertility drug therapy may worsen the condition by causing even more fluid build-up in the fallopian tubes, since they are responsive to the hormones produced by these kinds of medications. This built-up fluid can be expressed out of the tubes and into the uterus, which may be toxic to a developing embryo or make it difficult for implantation to occur. Researchers are still conducting studies to determine the effects of tubal fluid spilling back into the uterus. One study found that the risk of miscarriage is doubled in women with a hydrosalpinx.
A hydrosalpinx can also be hazardous during fertility evaluation and treatment because it is vulnerable to re-infection. Some treatments, such as insemination and embryo transfer, may inadvertently introduce bacteria into the tubes and result in a serious infection. Salpingitis, the medical term for an infection in a hydrosalpinx, may require emergency surgery and hospitalization. Diagnosis
Below are several ways a doctor can evaluate and diagnose a hydrosalpinx.

Overnight Wednesday, a reckless driver crashed his car into a creek then stole the car of a citizen who stopped to help him.
Stephen Fields, 20, of Old Hickory, wanted to elude police after he crashed and rolled his car into a creek in Mt. Juliet.
A 43-year-old Mt. Juliet resident heard the crash and drove to the crash scene to see if anyone needed aid. Fields acted as if he was looking for a passenger, who was possibly ejected from the car, so the concerned citizen began looking around the crash scene for another injured person. While the concerned citizen was away from his GMC SUV, Fields stole it and sped away.
Cpl. Rountree was responding to the crash when he spotted Fields and the stolen SUV pass him at an extremely high rate of speed. A pursuit began after Cpl. Rountree turned around and attempted to stop Fields. Due to Field's extremely fast speeds, officers lost sight of him temporarily. Sgt. Cook then spotted the stolen SUV and chased him until Fields bailed from the SUV and ran from officers on foot. Fields was later spotted by another citizen who saw Fields running through his yard on Clearview Drive in Mt. Juliet. That citizen was able to hold him with a rifle until officers arrived and took him into custody.
Stephen Fields was arrested and booked into the Wilson County Jail and was charged with the following: Theft of Property, $10,000 Bond; Resisting Arrest, $2,500 Bond; Evading Arrest, $2,500 Bond; Leaving the Scene of a Crash with Property Damage, $2,500 Bond
He has a court date set for May 28. The vehicle that he stole was returned to the owner who stopped to help him originally. Unfortunately, the vehicle received some damage from Field's reckless driving behavior.

The Best Sneaker/shoe
"I'm so glad dsw is carrying this sneaker!!! I purchased this shoe earlier in the year and it's a little cheaper here which is a plus. This is the most comfortable shoe ever. I have the grey color and they can be dressed up or down. The material is very durable, they may fit a little narrow at first but it feels like they conform to your feet. Wish I could buy every color."

- » Video: Cord Cutting Is Real
- » Big Business, 'Big Brother,' Big Pain
- » Most Innovative Small Businesses
The threat of cord cutting is finally a reality, says industry analyst Craig Moffett. He says the first quarter saw the largest-ever decline in cable subscribers, and projects that the percentage of Americans who pay for TV will drop from 88 percent this year to 82 percent in 2020.
Moffett says cable distributors "have very little ability to push back on the escalation in their costs. But they're hearing from their end users that prices are increasing too fast; they're between a rock and a hard place."
Addressing those concerns at the National Cable Show in Washington, D.C., the cable distributors showcased all sorts of new technologies to give their subscribers greater value for that monthly cable bill, and keep them hooked.
Cox Communications President Pat Esser acknowledged the problem: "Cord cutting is real.... Consumer behavior is shifting and they want their entertainment where they want it and when they want it and on the devices they want it on."
To address the threat, Esser says, the company researched what improves customer interaction, finding that consumers prioritized a simpler user interface, a more powerful DVR, personalized recommendations, and access via other devices. It's rolling out more of these services this summer.
[Click to shop around and compare cable packages from providers now.]
Comcast CEO Brian Roberts unveiled a new user interface—called X2—saying its voice-controlled remotes and "intelligent" user interaction will be game changers for the industry.
"It all starts with our goal which is to take all of the intelligence out of the cable box and put it in the cloud. That allows us to innovate faster," Roberts said. "It's smarter, it's personalized, it's easy, it's fun and it's beautiful."
Twitter's COO Ali Rowghani spoke at the cable show to convince cable companies that Twitter can be a valuable tool to engage consumers with live TV and prevent cord cutting.
It all comes down to the correlation between tune-in behavior and Twitter activity, which Nielsen recently reported. After speaking on stage Rowghani met with a number of cable chiefs to drive more partnerships—like the one Twitter has with ESPN—in the future.
"We believe TV has always been social except now with the advent of social media, that social conversation can happen at a much bigger scale and can be measured and acted upon," Rowghani said. "That's what's really interesting and profound we think about Twitter."

Saracens dominated the first half and led 7-6 at the interval but were left to rue a number of missed opportunities.

Northampton will now face the winner of Sunday's semi-final between Bath and Exeter in the final.

Taking Cultural Competency into Account when Approaching the Asian American Community
Asian American is the fastest growing ethnic group in the United States. It comprises many diverse populations with respect to educational and socioeconomic backgrounds, cultural and linguistic characteristics, and the unique conditions of our countries of origin. The different cultures represented have different styles and patterns of communication for giving and receiving information. This diversity makes it difficult for law enforcement and health care professionals to provide standardized substance-prevention and health information. Often, the public health messages that work well for the mainstream audience may be confusing or even miss the point when directed toward Asian Americans.
The differences—In some cultures, such as those of Americans or Germans, communication occurs predominantly through explicit statements embedded in text and in verbal conversations, and can be characterized as "Low-Context" cultures. In cultures such as the Japanese and Chinese, messages may be characterized as "High-Context" and include other communicative cues such as body language, the understanding of unspoken rules, and even silence. The High-Context communication style includes context that is not obvious during discussion. Situation, behavior, and paraverbal cues are integral parts of the communicated message. High-context cultures are also characterized by "slow information processing." Slow information processing refers to the speed at which one understands a message that is sent to them, with a delayed response often existing due to an 'extra' step of the person recollecting contextual cues. Slow information processing does not refer to one's intellectual or physical abilities.
Meth-use-prevention campaign—These differences in communication styles across cultures can also pose challenges to the ways in which health promotional messages are designed and communicated. With the support of the COPS Office, Asian Media Access has designed and implemented a national public education campaign focusing on methamphetamine for the diverse Asian American community. The underlying premise of customizing a public health message to appeal to a different culture is not enough merely to translate the text. The overall communication strategy and design should be appropriate to the audience, as well. The following five examples of strategies that represent cultural competence designs for the Asian American community can help law enforcement better understand how to use such messages in their outreach efforts.
1 - Use group pictures and symbols more often: The imagery chosen for High-Context culture communication tools should reflect family and group values, and emphasize relationships and the preservation of harmony within the group.
Postcard designed for Asian Americans
In Asian cultures, "family" is the foundation of society and the focal point of one's life. Group photos illustrate a sense of belonging and the recognition that drug abuse is not the problem of one person but of the whole community. High-Context use of pictures gives the audience a connection to the ideology (rather than the issue for its own sake), displaying some relationship expressive of collectivistic values and resonating with cultural meanings.
Postcard Designed for a Mainstream Community. Photo courtesy of Freevibe.com.
The backside of one person sends a clear message of individuals, and personal meaning. It is very different from the design in the first photo, where collectivism tends to show a network of people sharing the concerns.
2 - Use indirect, often ambiguous but positive messages to preserve harmony in the group. High-context cultures, such as Asian Americans, which use slow information processing, permit messages to be indirect and touch the overall and positive feeling without a specific "get-to-the-point" approach. The message has neither a clear opening nor a clear ending, but leaves room for interpretation. Use positive messages and pictures to support a tough subject that otherwise could disturb the harmony of a group. Often, Asian American communities may resist messages that communicate a disturbing topic in an aggressive manner.
Postcard Designed for Asian Americans.
High-Context cultures view one person's problem as the problem of the entire community. Messages, therefore, should use harmonious tones, not be "scary" or blaming, and should be ambiguous to foster continued harmony and the well-being of the community. They should be communicated with an understanding of cultural factors such as the concepts of "respect," and "saving face."
Postcard Designed for a Mainstream Community. Photo courtesy of the Montana Meth Project.
Scare tactics such as that presented in this photo are very straightforward and visual, but can be overly aggressive to an Asian American. To appeal to Asian Americans, communication should be indirect and promote positive images.
Photo courtesy of the Montana Meth Project.
The subject of sexuality and virginity is a topic that is addressed in private in Asian cultures. It is inappropriate to broadcast the issue in a public scope. When targeting an Asian American community, do not use aggressive communication styles that would humiliate or blame the victim.
3 - Use indirect methods to present information more slowly. In Low-Context cultures, the sender does all the work in clarifying information and getting to the point through a straight line of content. Conversely, in High-Context cultures, it is the receiver who has to retrieve the information by pulling the information from all directions in relationship to the context. This difference in information processing poses a great challenge for Low-Context designers to develop materials for High-Context culture receivers because the design plays a major role in information fluency. The High-Context format of communication design layout follows a tendency to present everything in one place to allow viewers to make their own connection to the information.
The indirect nature of High-Context communication, the predominance of preferred slow-message speed, and the prominent use of symbolism means that images, pictures, and other non-textual forms are given high importance within High-Context communication strategies.
Postcard Designed for Asian Americans.
The image is quite different and unusual. Bright colors support the visual attraction of the piece. The message exemplifies multiple crosscutting intersections and presents the topic through indirectness, ambiguity, and relational connection of various subtopics to the important issue. The message hints at the subject of meth, one's world, and the confused state of mind. It covers more than the simple message that meth is bad for you. The slower approach allows the receivers to think and reflect by themselves, ultimately coming to their own conclusions.
Postcard Designed for a Mainstream Community.
Photo courtesy of Freevibe.com.
This piece successfully demonstrates Low-Context culture communication styles. It is heavy in text and places importance on the thorough presentation of the message. It is presented in chronological order, guiding the audience to what they should know about marijuana: that doing weed will cause X, which leads to Y and Z. Accordingly, the public health message created for the Low-Context market is expected to be richer in text with fewer occurrences of images, to ensure that Low-Context messages are practical and direct sources of information. When Low-Context messages are sent to High-Context communicators, it is possible that the point of the message will be missed.
4 - Let the receivers decide what actions are needed and meant for them. Fast-speed cultures such as the United States usually are adept at creating quick contacts, the most effective punch lines and direct leads, but may also be perceived as over-doing by High-Context cultures. Slow-message cultures, such as in many Asian American communities, may take their time to understand the big picture, connect other context to it, and build relationships to promote harmony. The message itself needs to be vague in order to invite interpretation by receiver and avoid direct confrontation. A fast message sent to people who are geared to a slow format usually will miss the target. While the content of the wrong-speed message may be understandable, someone accustomed to or expecting a different speed will not receive it effectively
Postcard Designed for Asian Americans.
Images highlight the group effort with the intention of creating positive feeling. The silhouette the visual serves as an attention grabber. The message is simple, but not so particular as if to say "who is responsible to do what," It is open for the receiver to interpret the message for his or her own actions.
5 – Use comprehensive approaches, including a broader perspective, instead of a single theme. The information making up the communication materials for an Asian American community may not be in a consistent, logical sequence, layout, or color scheme. The design would need to be diverse and touch on more information or feeling than one single subject. Low-Context cultures tend to emphasize logic and rationality with limited but relevant information, based on the belief that there is always an objective truth that can be presented through linear processes of design and that the viewers will read about it. High-Context cultures, on the other hand, believe that truth will manifest itself through nonlinear discovery processes, without having to use rationality and that the viewers will feel it.
In the meth-prevention materials targeted toward the Asian American community, the focus of the design is less on meth facts and instead focuses on creating the urgent feeling to get involved in stopping the spread of meth use. It appeals from the comprehensive and emotional levels to seek behavioral change, instead of just increasing the knowledge about meth health hazards.
As the campaign unfolds, we want to share some of our findings to better support other substance-abuse-prevention projects directed toward the Asian American community. For more information about the campaign or to obtain a Meth Prevention Campaign set, contact Asian Media Access at 612.376.7715 or firstname.lastname@example.com

I've worked up an example of a YUI 3 overlay/popup driven by a button, with a NO-YUI-script link to a new page. Button and link are hidden/shown as appropriate.
I hope this helps.
Hi Nick,
Thanks a lot for your suggested accessible solution. I've just added Petr as a watcher for his comments.
Rosie, I notice you're also watching this issue. Your comments would be appreciated too.
This is my proposal on our help icons solution. Instead of describing, you can see it in action:
1. create an account at github.com
2. create a New repository
3. click "Admin" repository button
4. try the behaviour of their help icons there
We can use YUI overlay popups so screenreaders should be fine. Note that we should have something clickable so that users of iPhones, iPods and other no-mouse-cursor devices and users preferring Vimperator-like keyboard hints can access help, too. Also, such overlay popup gives us much more space than that hover bubbles so we are not so much limited in help text length.
Another proposal: use wiki syntax for help string content
- much easier to write correct syntax in plain text area without tinymce editor
- no pesky

 and other complex tags
- much easier to parse and convert to other formats
- smaller (less memory used)
Translators should be able to use wiki syntax already, because they are probably helping with docs.moodle.org already (it is linked from each page footer).
Hi Nick,
Thank you for creating a sample code for help popups.
After working on couple of accessibility issues, It seems that button is a preferable choice to trigger an action. In my opinion, nick's solution would be better than the github solution. With YUI, adding/removing an event such hover could be done easily.
regarding your comment on
MDL-20425 'when help is combined in other help popups', i think we could make multiple popup windows for each help where each window will have their own close button.
just for reference,
MDL-20425 suggest an improvement for labeling the help icon.
IMO that demonstration at dl.dropbox.com is the worst combination of possibilities: popup automatically opened after hover + must be closed by click on its button only Can you imagine how many times users just move cursor over a help icons by moving them on the screen? I really do not want to turn Moodle pages into casinos-like sites.
Also my -1 against the possibility to have multiple help popups opened at the same time.
I'm agree with you for not having the popup trigger on over.
The reason, i prefer nick's solution because the close button in the help content is accessible through click and tab. Screen reader could read the content of the popup window easily.
OK. Let is have "Close" button/link at the bottom of the popup but let us also implement it so that clicking anywhere closes the popup as well. This will increase usability while keeping accessibility. That is exactly how github help popups work.
Also, it will only display 1 popup window a time just like in github, correct?
When JS is available then I think the current solution in CVS is the best and the most usable. Hovering makes it show, and moving away makes it go away. It feels very natural just like a tooltip used through web browsers and operating systems.
When JS is not available then all we can do is go to a new page like we do now - no problem.
What I think we need to add is just:
When you have JS and you CLICK on the image (eg via a touch on a screen or some other selection device (tab key?) that doesn't hover), then the same tooltip pops up, and clicking the button again or inside the text box makes it go away. There could be an X on the text box too to close it (more like Nick's idea).
Note also that there needs to be a bit more delay on the tooltip to go away when it came up via hover, and also the "go away" should be prevented once we have our mouse in there, so that we can click links in the help or cut/paste, etc.
I know that Martin seems to be pretty sure about the required behaviour of help. I would just like to record my contra-proposal and will shut up already. My +1 goes for the help behaviour as they have at http://mahara.org/ Simply visit that page and look for the login box.
- firstly note the icon has nice decent neutral blue color. Help icons are not expected to be used every time the user visits the page and the yellow color is very striking
- note you have to click the icon
- note the popup - it can contain quite long text if needed, including links, formatting etc (I would just vote for displying the popup at fixed position at the screen, not near the icon)
- note you can click anywhere to close the help again, so getting the help info is as easy as double click and the uses is neither spammed with yellow bubbles by accidental hover nor annoying delay before the AJAX call is actually triggered
p.s. this Mahara's behaviour is the same as the one at github I was proposing above.
I just realized that with the "hover in - hover out" behaviour, we can't have that "More help" link working at the bottom of the yellow bubble.
OK, David, thanks.
I like the Mahara example better than github, because it doesn't take over the screen. And it looks like getting a div that was triggered by hover on the image to STAY there during hover on the help box is going to take more time for Rosie. I was hoping hover would make it easier to browse those long forms with help buttons we had but I just realised you still need to aim correctly to the image so you might as well click.
So new plan, to summarise for Rosie what we just talked about:
Javascript on:
- Hover over icon just shows standard browser tooltip "Help for X" like it used to in 1.9. This is implemented via title on the link, by the function that prints help buttons (already done in HEAD)
- Clicking on the icon/link makes the floating help appear. It stays there until you either click on the X in the upper right corner, or outside the floating help (just like Mahara).
- Clicking IN the help window does nothing (unless it's a link). Good for copying text.
Javascript off:
- Hovering will show browser tooltips based on the title attribute, as before. (already done in HEAD)
- Clicking will take you to a new help page via the standard link. (already done in HEAD)
The new plan to have a Mahara-like help popup sounds great to me! Thanks David, Martin and Rosie.
created patch for the help button popup (above suggestion)
I still notice the overlay positioning are off in Chrome and am going to look more into it tomorrow morning.
Please take a look.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Hi Rosie. Thanks for the patch. Some quick notes:
- if the help icon is too near the right border of the screen (for example in the right side bar), the overlay help window (that white bubble with the help content) gets out of the screen. The position must be fixed in this case.
- the patch add some commented lines (probably testing/development) into the code - just please be sure it is not committed
- the patch includes many trailing whitespace - please configure your IDE to either drop it automatically or (which I prefer) highlights it
is wrong as the YUI instance should be referred to as Y
Looking close, thanks Rossi!
- What david said
- Just to have it noted here, pressing tab+enter isn't working yet. No rush, but should be done by release.
- I have to say I preferred the yellow background - anyway I think the help window background should match the icon (whatever it ends up being), to make it totally distinct from the page itself. Themers can obviously change this, but I think yellow is good for standard.
- If there is some background colour then you can avoid the heavy black border (which doesn't match the standard look at all).
- The heading can have the 1em margin taken off the top in these popups.
fixed the position of the 'help content' to display on the left side of the icon, if the help icon is too near the right border. Change the styling for the 'help content' per martin's suggestion.
the above changes work nicely in FF. The latest patch has been committed.
In progress to fix:
- pressing tab + enter
- positioning overlay in chrome. I tried to use many different way to get the position of the icon, but had no luck. any suggestion would be appreciated.
Something is wrong with this button ('<button class="closehelpbutton" type="button" id="hide">). It's always visible which doesnt seem right. I've attached two screenshots.
I notice there is a problem when the help popup is near the bottom of the page - the bottom of the help popup is missing (see attached screenshot using Firefox on Ubuntu).
Otherwise I really like the new-style help popups. Thanks for suggesting it David, and great work implementing it Rosie!
Hi guys,
Current implementation breaks several things - problems include:
- All areas within Moodle using the openpopup function other than help (chat inc.)
- Install / upgrade: can't rely on JavaScript at this points and CSS from base is not included (close button being shown)
I've attached a patch that makes the following changes:
- renamed M.help_content to M.util.help_icon.
- render_help_icon no longer uses the popup action instead it adds a js init call to add a reference to a help icon.
- initialisation now occurs the first time a help icon is clicked rather than a call to init being included in every page.
- HTML for the overlay is added via JS rather than being a part of the page at delivery, easier on screen readers and install/upgrade compatible.
Having looked at the comments in this issue I think this patch is fine could someone please review.
The above patch has now been commit, Rossi could you please check it out for me and make sure it still does what is intended, let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks Sam for fixing the patch.
Addition to Sam's commit, I add 'enter' key event functionality to close the popup window.
popup window can be close by clicking anywhere outside the 'popup' window or pressing the 'enter' key.
This functionality has been committed to HEAD. Please take a look and let me know if you have any questions.
Wow, this looks really good!
some minor comments:
- the delay in bringing up the overlay is about 1 second, which is enough that a naive user will never find out that this feature exists because if you click on the icons as normal, it doesn't have time to come up at all before the pop up opens with a new window and if you just move the mouse around the page randomly, even quite slowly, you also see nothing. If the delay was zero, users would be very much more likely to notice this accidentally.
- the text size is smaller than the size of the text on the body of the page, which makes it slightly harder to read. It needs the standard YUI CSS to be overridden with Moodle's standard font size from the theme.
- the overlay appears below the cursor position, which often obscures the text of the thing you are asking for help about e.g. help button next to the HTML editor input. It would be slightly more useful to have it appear above the cursor so that you don't have to make it go away again to spot the icon it's talking about, before brining it back to read the rest.
Thanks Matt for you comments.
Regarding the delay on bringing up the overlay, there is no delay time is set to display it. However, when the icon is click for the first time, YUI needs to create overlay tag to the page then display it. The page will then re-use this tag to display other help content and clicking the help icon again will immediately display the overlay. The creation of overlay tag to the page might cause the 1 second delay on displaying the content.
I tested the text size using anomaly and standard themes, both themes display the content in the same size with the page. Could you tell me which there are you using?
I just found the default delay on line 187 of javascrip-static.js:
showdelay: 1000,
This works really well when changed to zero.
The size of text is with the standard theme and I've attached a screenshot.
A good deal of fiddling didn't turn up a way of altering the pop up's position relative to the cursor as thistooltip.align('bl', 'tr') only recognises the first element that the listener it's attached to and keeps placing the tooltip relative to it (when called from line 208) so that seems unalterable to me.
Matt, I think your code is quite old! The popups were rewritten since your version
Whoops, my bad! That's what I get for using an out of date dev server at work instead of my laptop.
I now have the updated code and it all looks great.

Tom May landed a 75th-minute drop-goal to secure Northampton an 18-14 Premiership victory over Bath at the Rec on Friday.
A 75th-minute Tom May drop-goal and five Stephen Myler penalties gave Northampton a precious 18-14 away win over Bath at the Rec on Friday.
The home side got off to a flying start with a try in the opening few minutes, Nick Abendanon racing onto a perfectly judged chip through from Tom Biggs to score in the left-hand corner.
Olly Barkley failed with the conversion but he did add a penalty after 10 minutes to stretch Bath's lead and the men from the West Country had the better off the possession and territory in the opening quarter.
Their discipline let them down as the half wore on though and the concession of a series of penalties within kicking range allowed Myler to get Northampton back into the match and even edge them in front by 12-8 at the break.
There wasn't too much free-flowing rugby in the second half either though as the Saints seemed content to grind away and trust the reliable boot of Myler to kick their points and Bath struggled to create any clear-cut opportunities.
Two Barkley penalties to just one from Myler pulled the hosts back to within one point of Jim Mallinder's men and left the game finely poised heading into the final quarter.
And the tension showed as the previously flawless Myler missed with a drop-goal and a penalty and Barkley was unable to give Bath the lead with a three-point attempt of his own.
Tom May, who had come on as a replacement for the injured Ben Foden early in the second half, did succeed with a drop-goal attempt under pressure just a few minutes from time though to seal victory for Northampton.
It may not have been a match full of flair and finesse and sparkling quality but the Saints won't mind one iota as they move to the top of the Aviva Premiership table and hand Bath their first defeat of the season.

Massachusetts officials are holding a public hearing in Springfield today to discuss changes to homeless assistance eligibility in the state. The state is shifting its attention toward preventing homelessness with the hope of decreasing funding for costly emergency housing assistance programs.
For several years Massachusetts has had more homeless families than shelter beds to house them, and has resorted to renting hotel and motel rooms for nearly 1700 families. Undersecretary of Housing and Community Development Aaron Gornstein says hotel and motel accommodations are expensive, and often leave families without cooking facilities and far from jobs and access to transportation. Gornstein says the state is investing $8 million in a transition program for families at risk of becoming homeless in order to try to transition away from sheltering families in hotels and motels.
"It's much better to work with them, those who are at risk of homelessness, first, before they have to go into a shelter which costs $3,000 a month. So this provides a flexible source of funding to help the family stay where they are, or relocate if they need to."
Gornstein says the number of homeless families living in hotels and motels has decreased in western Massachusetts since July, but four hundred fifty-five families still remain in the region. Gornstein says since August, his department has enlisted the help of organizations like HAP Housing of Springfield to meet with each family to help find more permanent housing solutions.
"We've already seen a 13% drop in the number of families in motels since July 1st. We're expecting that to continue, and we're moving in the right direction, but it does take some time and patience, it's not going to happen overnight."
The state has also tightened the eligibility requirements for families seeking emergency shelter. A hearing on those changes in eligibility begins this morning at 10 at the Springfield state office building.

where is a good place to post a theory? I have reservations about starting a new thread.
THANK YOU FOR BEING A SMART POSTER what is the topic of your theory not the theory but just the topic because there are tons of general topic threads for this reason? or if it is current event related post it in the chapter thread
but here are a few where you can not really go wrong when posting in
and tons of other general topic thread it just depends on what your theory is about ?
None of those cover it. my theory is about mihawk training zoro. its kind of a recent event but not so recent that I could post it in the latest chapter thread.
Cross, one day we'll collect all your theories and put them in the one thread.
