ST. GERMAIN: Those of the Higher Realms, and those of the Light, have been attempting, through so very many sources, and for so many years, to teach you, and to inform you, to enlighten you ones, to awaken you from your drunken stupor. We told you that everything was accelerating, and that all energy was returning with greater speed and greater impact. And yet, the majority—approximately 90% of you ones—chose to disbelieve the truth and follow the lie, instead. You chose to believe that these messages were being delivered to you by some figment of the imaginations of a handful of lunatics—by those who were living as some kind of fringe element who were to be ridiculed and ignored.

Though billed as a bobblehead, it actually appears to be more of a wobbletorso – a potentially groundbreaking advancement in bobble-technology undersold by the A's. And it is stunning:
The figurine, which commemorates Crisp's take on the so-called "Bernie Lean" favored by the A's during their unlikely postseason run in 2012, is believed to be the first major in-stadium giveaway inspired by the 1993 TriStar pictures comedy, Weekend At Bernie's 2.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
It's safety first in Huntington Canyon at Deer Creek Mine and the Huntington Plant. They were rewarded for their accomplishments in the line of safety by Judi Johansen, president and PacifiCorp CEO in awards ceremonies on Dec. 4. Johansen flew in from Portland to meet first with the miners at Deer Creek. She congratulated the miners in being the receipient of the 50 pound traveling CEO safety trophy which is a reflection of their accomplishments in safety. She introduced those PacifiCorp officials traveling with her from Portland. She said their award will bring high visibility to a facility doing it right and will serve as an example to other PacifiCorp facilities.
Johansen said that Deer Creek was chosen from seven sites nominated for the award and the competition was close. "The judging committee felt your safety program was the most comprehensive and displayed the most teamwork. You have also won awards nationally for mine rescue. You are a model for the broader group and we want to take and import what you do to some parts of the company without as good of records so they can learn from what you've done. Last year, the first year of this award it went to Bridger and we hope you win again next year so we don't have to move it," said Johansen.
Johansen then presented the trophy and a check for $2,500 to Earl Snow and Lou Shelley, UMWA local president. The miners voted to donate the money to the United Way of Southeastern Utah.
Snow, director of operations and maintenance for Energy West Mining said, "No plant has accomplished what this group did and it is an honor to be part of this team and associate with you guys."
Shelley said, "Our local UMWA has worked hard on safety and the people who work for Earl are committed totally to safety. Tain Curtis and all of the people have done a tremendous job, we have good people at this mine. I am proud to be a union miner and I thank everyone for their efforts for safety.
Dee Jense, president of Interwest Mining said, "We appreciate you guys and your safety record; it's commendable. We'll see bumps before we get through, but we've done it before. Safety has been the number one focus for each one of us at Deer Creek. It is time to refocus, but it can be done, we can do better and set the bar higher. We appreciate all you've done. We have some tough times ahead getting through to Mill Fork, but with dedication we'll get through. We are the supplier of choice for the power plants and work in a competitive arena, and we can be the best at what we do."
Johansen said she had visited the mine two years ago and went on a tour which gave her a greater understanding of what they go through. She goes before the PacifiCorp board to request funding for projects like Mill Fork and to go underground at Bridger. "Capital is limited and it is easier to make a case when you are doing what you've been doing. It is easier to get support."
Johansen and her team spent some time with the miners answering some of their questions.
Johansen and her associates from Portland stayed for lunch at the mine and then went down the road to the Huntington Plant where they did another presentation.
Plant manager, Dave Sharp greeted Johansen and visitors. Johansen said she had been at the plant earlier in the year to present them with a gold flag for safety and her return in December is quite significant. She said the Huntington Plant has shown good focus with their safety programs. "Safety is what you do for yourselves," said Johansen.
Johansen presented the check for $2,500 to Bruce Wilson from the safety committee. The Huntington Plant workers voted to donate their check to the Emery, Carbon and Sanpete counties search and rescue units. Employees, Les Thompson, Ken Eley, Kirk McQuivey, Layne Potter, Brad Reed, Pete Alger and Leonard Norton are also search and rescue volunteers. They were recently involved in the rescue of Justin Harris from the Swell. Johansen congratulated these men for the part they played with the rescue.
Sharp said "Safety is a high priority at the Huntington plant and our employees take pride in their safety accomplishments."

Gregoire letter
Budget alternatives site
Budget alternatives document While Gov. Chris Gregoire added definition to what another $2 billion cut to the state budget could mean for higher education and the rest of the state services, Shoreline Community College President Lee Lambert said the college must continue planning for a range of outcomes.
"With another $2 billion in the hole," Gregoire said Thursday, Oct. 27, 2011. "Our citizens will get a lot less."
Gregoire laid out a laundry list of potential cuts totaling $4 billion and then put stars by the options she is proposing, totaling $2 billion. The state is facing a $1.4 billion shortfall and Gregoire has pegged the needed cut level at $2 billion to provide some cushion. The list she unveiled Thursday isn't yet a budget; that will come after the Nov. 17 state revenue forecast and before the start of the Nov. 28 special legislative session, she said.
For higher education, Gregoire is proposing from the list of possible cuts a 15 percent reduction in state allocations for all of higher education, which would amount to $166 million. Under her plan, that cut would come in the second half of the biennium, taking effect on July 1, 2012. Gregoire would also suspend the Work Study Program, cutting $8 million in aid to 7,600 students at public and private colleges and universities beginning fall term 2012.
Also on her list, but not chosen, were cuts of 10 or 20 percent and a range of options to eliminate or reduce the State Need Grant. That program is the state's largest financial aid program, providing grants to 70,000 low-income students.
The list also includes 10 furlough days, but this is not among the preferred alternatives. It also includes some potential changes to employee health benefits, but there is not enough information to determine how the preferred alternatives might impact employees.
At Shoreline, President Lambert said that while the Governor has presented one version of a cut, legislators in the special session could still make substantial changes.
"We will continue with our planning efforts," Lambert said. "The Governor has presented one possible scenario. However, we just don't know what will happen and we must be prepared for a range of possibilities."
Lambert just named a working group of administrators, staff and faculty to develop budget reduction scenarios of 15, 20 and 25 percent. That group is due to deliver their recommendations to Lambert on Nov. 18.
Gregoire said Thursday that she will present a budget that relies on cuts, not adding more taxes, even though many legislators are talking about how to add revenue to the budget. "All four caucuses (Democrats and Republicans from both House and Senate) have come to me about revenue," she said. "I have not done any thinking about that. That will come next."
Gregoire said she would like legislators to focus on the budget reductions during the special session and focus on "putting Washington back to work" in the regular session starting in January.
"I don't want anyone to think that I like these options," Gregoire said. "These choices were made out of necessity due to a drop in consumer confidence brought on by actions on Wall Street, inaction by Congress and the European debt crisis. The list of options I've presented hurts. This is not what I signed up for when I started as a caseworker 40 years ago. But it's what the world economy handed our state and our country."
SCC/Jim Hills
Key dates
October 24 – Gov. Gregoire releases budget proposal
October 26 – SCC Board of Trustees meeting
Nov. 15 - State Revenue Forecast
Nov. 18 – SCC Budget Reduction Scenario Team report due
Nov. 28 – State Legislature special session convenesWith the timeline for state-level budget decisions growing shorter, Shoreline Community College is preparing for a range of potential outcomes.
Key dates
"We don't know what the Legislature will decide to do, but we do know that when they choose, we'll have to react quickly," Shoreline President Lee Lambert said. "There have been a range of reductions talked about in the news; from the governor's announcement of a 23 percent average cut to others saying it could be more than 30 percent.
"Any cut of that magnitude is devastating, but that spread is huge and the details of the impacts, obviously, depend on the final decision that comes out of Olympia."
Lambert said the college needs to prepare a range of responses and have them ready in very short order.
"I've asked for three reduction scenarios; 20, 25 and 30 percent," Lambert said. "Also, this has to be done quickly. I want representation from across campus, but we just don't have time for our normal processes in these extraordinary times."
Working with his senior executive team, Lambert has named a Budget Reduction Scenario Team that will be charged with recommending the three reduction strategies. Those recommendations would go back to Lambert and the Senior Executive Team. And the deadline? Nov. 18.
"I realize that is a very short timeline, but if the Legislature calls for immediate reductions, we need to be prepared to act," Lambert said.
Members of the Budget Reduction Scenario Team are: Daryl Campbell, John Backes, Holly Woodmansee, Gillian Lewis, Mary Bonar, Amy Kinsel, Karen Kreutzer, Molly Morse and Guy Hamilton. Campbell will act as team coordinator.
"It will require focused work, but I think we can meet President Lambert's goal," Campbell said, adding that meetings have already been scheduled. "Everyone named to the team understands the level of commitment and agreed to fully participate. I'm very grateful."
Lambert noted that the scenarios are recommendations on what might be cut at the three reduction levels, not necessarily how those cuts might be achieved.
"We expect the cuts to be big, but we just don't know yet how the Legislature or State Board will ask us and the other colleges to implement those cuts," Lambert said. "Those details could make a very big difference on how we approach any reductions. Under those conditions, it just isn't fair or efficient to ask this group to speculate on how to cut."
Another variable is non-state revenue.
In September, Lambert told the campus that the college is moving ahead with three strategic initiatives: building out a virtual college, expanding International education and increasing partnerships.
"Those are still the strategies for offsetting the loss of state dollars," Lambert said. "We're making tremendous progress in all three areas, but the state cuts just keep coming, faster and deeper each time."
A year ago, English instructor and IDS Coordinator/Service Learning Coordinator Neal Vasishth invited two professors to SCC from Seattle Central Community College to come and give a presentation about their project that supported student learning and awareness of social responsibility via a shared theme across disciplines. More than 30 faculty and staff members attended the meeting which sparked interest and instigated the launching of a new model for student learning at Shoreline.
"The idea," Vasishth says, "is to support learning and understanding on a deep level via a central theme across disciplines and this could be a way to connect programs at Shoreline." Vasishth says that by using a common theme throughout students' coursework and co-curricular projects and by seeing a common issue explored through various disciplinary lenses, students can understand real world applications of their knowledge and skills learned at SCC. "The 'One Theme, One Campus" model not only supports learning and understanding but builds community engagement and gets our students more involved here on campus and in our communities.
Many SCC employees have spent many hours doing the planning. Judy Penn, Rachel David, Amber Skidmore, Larry Fuell, Gary Parks, Daina Smuidrins, Kira Wennstrom, Claire Murata, Rosalie Tepper, and Brooke Zimmers met with Vasishth over the last year and designed a plan to support cross-discipline learning by exploring food and hunger issues in number of disciplines. Many more instructors will be participating with the project: Donna Biscay, Tony Doupé, Tim Payne, Diana Knauf, Lauren Wilson, Steve Bogart. Each instructor has integrated "food" into their curricula in small or large ways that promotes food literacy such as knowing where our food comes from, learning about food issues in our communities and coming up with possible solutions.
Vasishth says that many programs have also jumped on board. The Center for Equity, Engagement and Service, Learning Center North, the Library/Technology Center, the Writing and Learning Studio and the Math Program have already supported the goals of the "One Theme, One Campus" theme. Claire Murata created a web site at which faculty can find libguides, resources such as books and films. Deanna Sukkar is creating a student lib-guide.
Food literacy and hunger issues seemed not only a worthy theme and one that could be looked at from many perspectives, but Shoreline has already introduced food issues over the past couple of years with several events and projects – both on- and off campus. Last year students in Education Coordinator Guru Dorje's Learning Center North classes and Biology Professor Judy Penn's new Sustainable Gardening class, Biology 126 collaborated on a community gardening project to help those in need. That same year, students, faculty and staff supported the Center for Service Learning's and Veteran Center's MLK Day Food Drive held at Central Market and other locations across Puget Sound. Donations were given to local food banks. And in 2009, the Center for Service Learning and the Global Development Project Club at Shoreline Community College coordinated a community Oxfam America Global Hunger Banquet, a unique dinner experience that highlighted the issues surrounding global hunger and its connections to our lives. Many of these events have been happening independent of each other, but, with the common food theme, Vasishth hopes that more collaboration can happen between various parts of the campus, and we can make even more of a difference in our students' lives and our community.
The "One Theme, One Campus" model is kicking off the campus-wide effort with a showing of the film, "Food, Inc." at 12:30 on Tuesday, October 11 in the Campus Theater. Faculty involved in the project will ask students to think about a specific topic as they watch the film and then discuss it following the film. The faculty questions could be directed to a specific discipline or issues connected to a specific class, but Vasishth says that he would mostly like the questions to be thought provoking. All students, faculty and staff and the Shoreline Community are invited to attend.

I am trying to customize the blocks that students will see on their user profile page. I go to Settings > Site Administration > Appearance > Default profile page and click the "Customize this page" button. Then, I add a block. If I leave it as-is, it works fine, and appears where it should. But if I can go into its settings to edit its page context, strange things happen. The first time you access it, there are two choices under "Display on page types": "Only user profile pages" and "My home page." The SECOND and all later times that you return to those settings, a third option "All pages," has appeared.
What is problematic is that, once "All pages" has appeared, the block's "Display on page types" ALWAYS defaults to this, no matter what setting I choose. If I change "Only user profile pages" (see image "beforesaving.png"), and then press "Save," the setting is actually immediately reset to "All pages" (see image "aftersaving.png"). I cannot figure out why the setting that I apply won't "stick."
I have replicated this problem on both our local Moodle 2.x installation and on demo.moodle.org.

Thanks for reporting this. A prime example of a solid bug report.
I wonder if this has to do with the page layout of the profile page.
I've put it on our backlog.
In the meantime feel free to help us work on this issue. If you are able to provide a patch, please add a patch label so we will spot it.
Here's another example, of trying to get a block set up to display on all user home pages (a very common requirement):
1) As admin, create a new HTML block at site level (on the front page). Make sure it's set to display on all pages in the site.
2) Go to your home page (/my). The block should be there.
3) Edit the settings and change the page type menu to display only on "my-index". Save the form.
4) Open the same settings for the block again.
5) The page type has not changed, and it not saveable.
Note, this apparently is only a problem on SYSTEM blocks (created on front page or in the default pages as described by OP).
I'm sure that the code always resetting to pagetype = '*' is the one @:
So any page having $data->bui_contexts == BUI_CONTEXTS_ENTIRE_SITE (line 1245) gets its page-type reset. I've quick tested it disabling that condition and then the page-type is stored properly.
Just looking to the referenced
MDL-21375 issue now.
I can second Eloy's findings. I just realized the pagetypepattern is reset to '*', probably because the code expects the user actually wants sticky blocks on all page types, not a specific one... Tricky sticky.
Yeah, it seems that this comment, the "behind the scenes", is the culprit for that:
For front page, the form hides the "page-type" and later calculates it "behind the scenes", doing:
1) if "entire site" was selected, then apply for pagetype = '*'
2) else, for any other systemcontext block, apply for pagetype = 'site-index'
And that, happening "behind the scenes", is clearly against our attempts to specify one pagetype, efectively reseting it behind the scenes, lol.
So, perhaps, we could try to change the conditions a bit and only apply for those defaults if no pagetype is passed or so.
Or, alternatively, we could bring back in the UI the page-type and avoid any "behind the scenes". After all, it only applies to the front page.
Just attempting the first alternative...
Uhm, no way. The data comes in the form, so it is not possible to detect from where we are editing the block instance.
We would need something coming in the form like $data->editedfrom, to be able to decide, really hacky.
My +1 goes to bring back the UI to the front page edition, so any instance edited will look 100% the same if edited in the front page or in the my page or in the profile/my template pages.
And revert the "behind the scenes" code, of course.
Alternatively... we could try to prevent edition of the instance in places where it does not belong to, so:
- Instances having * or site-* only will be editable in frontpage
- Instances having my-index-* only editable in my/indexsys.php
- Instances having user-* only editable in user/profilesys.php
- Other instances (blogs, tags...) no bloody idea!
That way, each one can have its own "behind the scenes" code, and it won't be possible to allow one to mess the other.
That, or we allow to edit all possible pagetypes everywhere.
Bah, but it's really inconsistent in every place I'm looking:
- If you create one block @ course level, setting it to "show in all pages".
- Then you go to one chat activity and edit it from there and you can set it to "Any chat page" only. But it continues being a "course-context-level" block.
- Then, the block is not available anymore @ course page (because it's to be shown only in chat pages) and cannot be reverted anymore to "show in all pages" because chat does not allow you to pick pagetype again.
- 100% locked situation. Only can delete the block and start from scratch!
So, I think the only way to avoid all this is to completely avoid edition "remotely" (of the instance-related information, np with the position information) and only allow edition if both the context and pagetype match the context and pagetype of the block.
Anything else can lead to conflicts, like the frontpage vs my, or the course vs chat.
Ciao, gtg now for 2-3 h
The problem there is the "because chat does not allow you to pick pagetype again."
Why not? It used to allow you to change the setting back - at least to change pagetype back to *.
tim is correct, of course.
The workflow for showing a block on all pages of a certain type:
- You create the block in the top context (eg a course) that covers the places you want it, and make it "sticky" so it appears on all the sub-contexts.
- You then go to the type of place where you want it, eg in chat and edit the block there
- You set the pagetype etc to show only on THIS type of page (eg all chat pages in the course)
To undo this you:
- Go to the chat page where the block appears
- Edit the settings, and set the pagetypes back to "All" = *
- Then the block appears in the "home" (eg course) context again
This process is exactly the same for a block that was created at the site, category, course, activity.
The "locked chat" sounds like a bug. And the situation of system blocks is a bug. You NEED to be able to edit the block in all kinds of contexts UNDER the original home location, because that's how you access the pagetypes you need.
I really think we need to solve this before release, even if it's Monday or so.
It's a pretty fundamental thing in the GUI and could mess up any sites that use blocks in a meaningful way.
Yes, your definition above would work greatly if:
1) for parent-child relations (system <==> course <==> module) , all the children can revert the page-type to all the ones available in the parent.
2) For siblings relations (system <==> system), all the siblings can set all the page-types.
Nor 1) (the chat lookout) nor 2) (the frontpage able to set my-* and viceversa) are working ok now. And all because of the mutually excluding options.
Anyway that surely needs to be revisited later (after release). For now it's enough to fix the current issue (the 2 case).
IMO the problem for 2) is that the frontpage is being used both to define frontpage blocks and also as "another template" for system. And here it's where it collisions with the other 2 templates (the my and the profile ones).
Said that, if I can help with anything, tell me... ttyl! Ciao
For the records, the "lockout" between course and modules happens with all modules, both under 21_STABLE and master. The original implementation @ 20_STABLE adds properly the last "*" element, so it's possible to "bring back" the block to the course.
ANOTHER ONE: Category blocks also 100% broken, both 21_STABLE and master. It's not possible anymore to specify * all pages, to get the block shown in all sub-categories/courses. It worked perfectly in 20_STABLE.
AND THE FINAL: Now trying to see how system (all pages) blocks are edited both at course or module level. And it's another, different, case. In this case, the list of options remains sticky to the system ones and nor the course nor the module page-types are added).
So, apart from the original issue, we have 3 more:
- Lock between course blocks page-type editions at module level. (missing "*" to bring back the block to the course).
- Category blocks not working anymore, not spread to all children contexts. (missing "*" to pick all pages option). And surely suffering also 1) once fixed.
- System blocks not able to be edited with custom page-types at course or module level. And surely suffering also 1) if get fixed. This last is the one I don't know if is a bug of a wanted (sticky) feature, but in that case it does not have any sense to be able to change one system block at module level.
The THREE problems should have its own issue if you agree they are problems, perhaps they aren't. Ciao
Solution for subproblem1: Not able to 'bring back' one block to its origins when editing @ subcontext. Needs backport to 21_STABLE!
Amazing, trying to fix subproblem 2 of
MDL-30340 just realized that we have pages with "dynamic" pagetype, so on edition, the pagetype = 'admin-course-category' and when browsing it is = 'page-course-category'. So setting the former on edition, causes no effect when browsing.
Going to try if *-course-category works to cover the 2 pagetype approaches...
That apart of the missing '*' option to spread the block over all the subcategories/courses/modules.
This is my attempt to fix the My Moodle sticky blocks issue. It already includes Eloy's patch from
Adding link to
MDL-30564 about the "varying-pagetype" behavior of the category pages.
Also, it has been agreed about to, for now, simply add the '* option to the category blocks. Doing...
Solution for subproblem2: Not able to spread course-category blocks down to subcontexts. Need backport to 21_STABLE!
Side note, for commodity, no mater all these are going to separate issues, I'm gluing everything @:
git fetch git://github.com/stronk7/moodle.git
I need some feedback about the 3) related issue commented above. Is it a bug? No? Should the "local options" be shown when the block is edited at subcontexts? All the rest of multi-context blocks (course-category, course) allow to change the pagetype on children contexts. System ones do not.
One simple use case: Create one system-wide HTML block to be shown in all forums, pointing to the forumtiquette rules.
Subproblem 3 has been moved to (non-subtask):
MDL-30568: allow subcontexts to play their game editing system-wide contexts
I'm the assignee on this and promised to look at this weekend, but I don't think I have the detailed level of understanding of the situation that Eloy/David now have!
I've just been testing this following the test instructions, and not sure if I have this correct, but could it be that some of the cases for the options are actually mutually exclusive?
Just a thought in passing...
I have been testing Eloy's combined branch fairly exhaustively (https://github.com/stronk7/moodle/compare/master...MDL-30340.totus_tuus)
I think it solves all the major issues and would be good enough to unblock 2.2.
Problems remaining:
1) When you edit a block that is on the front page (site-index), you now see two menus that conflict. You can select:
- "Display throughout the entire site" from contexts, and
- "site-index" from pagetypes,
and it will only show on site-index. This is technically correct from a block code point of view, but nonsensical and confusing for users ON THIS PAGE, because there is only one site-index anyway. The solution (as it was before) is to hide the second menu altogether and always set pagetype to '*' behind the scenes (or as a hidden field). But ONLY ONLY when we are editing a block on the front page (site-index). I would like to see this fixed for 2.2 release.
2) If I create a page on the front page, then go to Tags page and make it show only on Tag pages, it works. But if I try to reverse this process I do not see "All pages" in the Page types menu, so I can't. The block is "locked" in tags. (Note this is a not a problem for Blogs, Notes, Calendar or Reports). Can be fixed after 2.2 as this kind of tag blocks are probably a small use case.
3) Editing a site-wide block on the Site-level Participants page breaks completely with block not found. Can be fixed after 2.2 though.
(Mary, the test instructions are badly written, in that the OP used them to indicate the problem. They are not for testing a solution. I'll update them)
I continue thinking that the roots of all (big, big %) of this mess is caused by the mix of system-wide/frontpage blocks that we are trying to achieve in the frontpage UI.
Life would be really easier and clearer for everybody if we could move the system-wide part to one new, isolated template, like the ones we have already for /my and /user/profile.
I agree that, for system context there is only one possibility, and * could be assumed, but the 3 available for frontpage are the ones causing the UI problem, and requiring us to show them. Hence, separating would simplify a lot.
If that is not done... I would recommend to change the UI @ frontpage to something really easier to understand and interact with. After all there are no many combinations possible there. Why not one simple drop-down menu with these combinations available:
- Front-page only (site-index) (COURSE_CTX)
- Any front page (site-index-*) (COURSE_CTX)
- Any top level page (site-*) (COURSE_CTX)
- System-wide (SYSTEM_CTX)
That is an easy picker, that prevents any forbidden combination, and it does not require JS, nor nested pickers, not hiding anything.
PS: In fact, hehe, the menu above is exactly the "Display on page types" one, so basically we can hide the "Page contexts" one, because any page-type belongs to one and only one context (i.e. the inverse automatism - page type defines context - may work).
PS2: I'm going to take a look to the tags problem.
Re: about all the blog/notes/tags... blocks:
- ALL them are system context.
- Do we really want to be able to send back one block from those pages to the "system template"? I really don't get the point about at. If somebody wants to create one block for all the blog pages or tag pages... why not, simply create it there? Creating it in the front-page as a system-wide block, just to "take/capture it" in the blog or tags page seems unnatural. More yet, I'm not sure if all the blocks available for those pages are suitable to be used out from those pages.
- The "bring-back" feature was thought to effectively return the block to its original (parent) context, hence it only applies for system => coursecat => course => module, but not for system => system.
- Blogs, for example, are able to shown the "bring back" because the * option is explicitly defined in blog_page_type_list(), but others, like note|tags_page_type_list()... don't have that option. IMO the laters are the correct ones, i.e. I'd take rid of the option in blog ASAP if the rationally in 1..3 has sense for you.
Simple grep:
grep -r "get_string('page-x', 'pagetype" *
admin/lib.php: '*' => get_string('page-x', 'pagetype')
blog/lib.php: '*'=>get_string('page-x', 'pagetype'),
course/lib.php: return array('*'=>get_string('page-x', 'pagetype'));
course/lib.php: return array('*'=>get_string('page-x', 'pagetype'),
course/report/lib.php: '*' => get_string('page-x', 'pagetype'),
lib/blocklib.php: $patterns['*'] = get_string('page-x', 'pagetype');
lib/blocklib.php: $patterns['*'] = get_string('page-x', 'pagetype');
report/completion/lib.php: => get_string('page-x', 'pagetype'),
report/log/lib.php: '*' => get_string('page-x', 'pagetype'),
report/outline/lib.php: '*' => get_string('page-x', 'pagetype'),
report/participation/lib.php: '*' => get_string('page-x', 'pagetype'),
report/progress/lib.php: '*' => get_string('page-x', 'pagetype'),
report/stats/lib.php: '*' => get_string('page-x', 'pagetype'),
- admin/lib.php: correct Is the one introduced conditionally by
MDL-30566to be able to 'bring back' blocks from subcontexts to coursecat.
- blog/lib.php: wrong As commented right above, it's a system => system situation. We should not allow to send it back to "system-template".
- course/lib.php: wrong It only should be shown if currencontext is course. If is one block being edited @ subcontext, the 'bring-back' (
MDL-30565) will add it at the end.
- course/report: wrong It's exactly the same thing that the blog/notes/tags... so no way to have the '*' defined on them. Only if the block is being edited on subcontext the 'bring-back' will be shown.
- lib/blocklib.php: wrong One of the uses is ok (the 'bring-back feature itself'), the other is incorrect (see default_page_type_list()). Same logic than course. The "any-page" should be shown only if editing at currentcontext (and show it on top). Else the 'bring-back' feature will show it the last.
- report/: *wrong. Only the 'bring-back' (@ last position) should show the "any-page". No sense if not.
#) Take rid of the harcoded 'page-x' options @ blog and reports. It only should be shown when the 'bring-back' feature inserts it at the end.
#) At course/lib and default_page_type_list(), modify the use, so 'page-x' is only added (on top) if editing @ currentcontext = parentcontext. Else, the 'bring-back' feature will insert it (bottom).
Note: I've created MDL-30574 about to discuss how system => system "bring-backs" should work and where the "any-page" option should be available. For after release.
Oki, back to this issue, recent chat copy/paste (slightly edited):
[16:26:30] <stronk7> there are 3 contexts to pick:
* system
* frontpage only
* frontpage all added
[16:26:31] <stronk7> tell me which hidden page-types go for each one
[16:26:39] <Martin Dougiamas (HQ)> *, site-index, *
[16:26:54] <stronk7> that and only that, 100%
[16:27:02] <stronk7> forever
[16:27:15] <Martin Dougiamas (HQ)> but for the middle one, note that "*" === "site-index" because it's the only pagetype in that context
[16:27:24] <stronk7> for now, yes
[16:27:28] <Martin Dougiamas (HQ)> for now, yes
[16:27:41] <stronk7> okidoki... I'll try
So I'm assuming that:
- picking system sets the context to system, recursively and with page-type set to "*"
- frontpage only sets the context to site-course, non-recursively and with page-type set to "site-index"
- frontpage all added sets the context to site-course, recursively and with paget-type set to "*"
- The wording for 3) is incorrect, should be something like "All activities in front-page" or so.
- all this is only valid when editing one block in frontpage and must not apply anything extra when one block is edited in any other page.
Trying it on top of David's patch. Ciao
Oki, here it is the patch reducing options as much as possible, following the points above:
And the super-complete patch, including both the one above and the 2 subtasks is:
That continues applying clean to 21_STABLE:
Please read the complete commit messages and the comments in code, they try to explain and reference all the important points.
Note that the only missing thing to consider and to add es the 4) above: think about a better wording for the "frontpage-all" (with subcontexts) page-contexts setting. Current "Display on the front page and any pages added to the front page" is not intuitive at all!
Testing should include:
- Create block @ frontpage, playing with the 3 possible page contexts (system, frontpage only and frontpage-all).
- Review all the rest of system-wide pages (my template, userprofile template, blogs, tags, notes), both with own defined blocks and inherited from frontpage's system-wide.
- Review all the rest of contexts (course category, course, module), both with own defined blocks and inherited from all parent contexts.
The only annoyances detected should be:
MDL-30564- Separate course-categories admin interface and normal usage (varying pagetypes problem). It shows, when editing, "admin-xxx", and should be "coursecat xxxx", but it's not fixable until we solve the duality and apply correctly on each page-type.
- MDL-30574 - Delete some incorrect "any page" options that should not exist (or add some missing ones, to decide in that issue). This is leading to some small inconsistencies in system => system inheritance (that IMO should be 100% forbidden, with each page showing its own pagetypes, but others may think the opposite and enable the "bring back" feature to all them).
And that's all. Please, review, review, review and test, test, test... ciao
Hi Eloy,
Things look good to me.
I've been playing with this for the past hour and can't really fault it.
The only thing that I did note was that if you added a user added a block to their profile page, and then moved it to their my moodle page there was no way to get it back.
I've just had a look at the code as well, everything looks good there.
Regression: page contexts for blocks are being set to front page course after any edit, even if the block is being added to another course or an activity.
OK, I've created a patch for this last regression and attached it as a diff for you, Eloy. Can you please add this to your branch?
I've tested everything quite thoroughly and I'm confident this is good to integrate now.
You just need to add my diff (attached) on top of your totus branch, Eloy.
Good spotting, guys. Some day we'll discuss about constant overlapping, but not today.
Adding the diff on top...
Final patch for this issue:
Complete patch including both this issue & 2 subtasks:
Backport to 21_STABLE:
So should I self-integrate and auto-pass (MD as tester) and begin rolling 2.2 ?
Or do you want anybody else to follow the standard complete steps?
And 21_STABLE ? new issue for it or integrate too?
Integrated (master only). New issue will be created to backport this to 21_STABLE.
MDL-30585 has been created about to backport this to 21_STABLE
Updating description to cover the more general bug that we addressed.
Working great now! Still a few issues where you can't 'undo' the settings like on course categories and tags, otherwise perfect!
And this is now part of the new, just created 22_STABLE and v2.2.0 release, yay! Thanks!
(adding the qa_test_required)
Surely we should have 1/n QA tests covering the "bring back" feature expected behavior | all levels, the frontpage edition and so on.
Perhaps I misunderstood the way that this patch works, but I am experiencing the following problem, both on my local installation and on demo.moodle.org:
If I place a block on Site Administration > Appearance > Default My Moodle page, that block never appears on the My home page of any users on the site. This behavior, at least, seemed to work semi-correctly before the patch. So how does the Default My Moodle page now work? Does it do anything?
Will 2.2 upgrade fix this specific issue? ..We have Moodle 2.1.3 and when I add the 'People' block to the Front page and select 'Display throughout the entire site' then go to a course page and edit the block and change page types to be 'Any type of course main page' it jumps back to 'Any Page' after I save it. We want to have the 'People' block on all course main pages only (not site pages as well). We want this without having to add it manually to all courses as this block got wiped out completely from all courses during our upgrade from 1.9.13
If this issue fixes the problem then can we add a patch to our 2.1.3 instance or do we have to upgrade to 2.2? Some advice would be appreciated.
Hi, I just encountered an error when I tried to edit settings on a courses block that I had set to appear on any page. The error was: Either course id or category must be specified This block (id=24) does not exist on this page (http://tim.moodle.local/moodle/).
I accessed the course block settings via the edit course settings page.
Test steps:
1. Add a courses block to the course page.
2. Navigate to a sub page and set the block to appear on any page.
3. Navigate to edit course settings page and click the edit icon on the courses block.
Expected result:
Edit course settings, changes cancelled and system displays edit block settings.
Actual result:
Exception is thrown. "Either course id or category must be specified This block (id=24) does not exist on this page (http://tim.moodle.local/moodle/)."
I'm on integration/master
It appears that this exception is thrown on this page regardless of what type of block it is. I also noticed that the block, I am currently using an HTML block, doesn't appear on "any page". It's still stuck under the course context even though it's set to appear on "any page"!
Created 3 new QA tests for this MDLQA-1545, MDLQA-1546 and MDLQA-1547 as subs of MDLQA-1 master copy. If anyone has the chance to review these for me then please let me know if more are required.

Ed Chamberlin: Feeling Blue
Ed Chamberlin looks ahead to the Premier League action and Long Run's return to the track at Haydock Park.
- Related Content
Sky Bet's Premier League Title odds: 5/4 Man Utd, 11/8 Man City, 5/1 Chelsea, 33/1 Arsenal, 150/1 Tottenham, 150/1 Liverpool, 175/1 Everton, 1500/1 Newcastle
The bookies had a field day last weekend. Sides seemed to suffer after the midweek internationals and it threw up shocks galore. Notably, Manchester United lost at Norwich and drifted to 5/4 from evens to win the title and Chelsea were beaten by in-form West Brom and are out to 7/2.
A lot has happened at Chelsea since that defeat and it's a fascinating time to have them live on Super Sunday, especially up against the champions Manchester City (8/5 to win with Sky Bet).
It promises to be a dramatic afternoon to end yet another eventful week in the life of Chelsea Football Club.
It's amazing to think that Roberto Di Matteo was dismissed just 185 days after lifting the Champions League trophy and certainly took punters by surprise.
Di Matteo was 8/1 with Sky Bet before the game in Turin to be the next Premier League manager to leave his job.
- Premier League
- last updated 19/11 21:54
He was backed down to 4/1 after the 3-0 defeat to Juventus but there was no immediate stampede and plenty of punters with vouchers on Mark Hughes and others will be licking their wounds.
People will point to the danger of Chelsea becoming the first Champions League winners to go out in the following season's group stage and his record of five defeats in his first 23 Premier League games at Chelsea - it took Jose Mourinho 75 games to lose five times. However, this is a Chelsea side in transition.
They have some young, exciting players but struggle defensively and are struggling without the spine and leadership of Terry, Lampard and Drogba. In an interview for Super Sunday two weeks ago Gianluca Vialli told us that is all very well to have flair players but it's equally important to have a strong 'core', preferably an English core.
Chelsea have no sort of core at the moment, which is a worry against City's Joe Hart, Vincent Kompany, Yaya Toure and Sergio Aguero.
"It promises to be a dramatic afternoon to end yet another eventful week in the life of Chelsea Football Club."
Rafael Benitez will inherit all the same problems that Di Matteo struggled with. As we have been discussing on the Monday Night Football, he had such a difficult job on his hands with Chelsea's brutal set of fixtures coming up, including a trip to Japan, and a limited number of top class players to juggle with. How does he keep Oscar, Juan Mata and Eden Hazard fresh and firing?
He was not helped when his best player, Mata, has to travel to Panama and back in the week between games against Liverpool and West Brom. The only striker at his disposal was a £50 million misfiring one. Add to that balancing act, the need to win matches in the style that the club's owner demands and you get an idea of the task facing Benitez.
One piece of good news for Chelsea is that they have won six of the last seven meetings with Man City at Stamford Bridge, losing just one of the last 14. City's only win at Stamford Bridge in the last 19 years was 4-2 in February 2010. However, I wonder how many punters will be backing Chelsea at 8/5 with Sky Bet.
Before that game at Stamford Bridge we have Brendan Rogers' return to the Liberty Stadium. His team will be looking for revenge after Swansea knocked Liverpool out of the Capital One Cup last month and for their first win at Swansea in 30 years.
Their last victory was 3-0 at the Vetch Field in September 1982 when Soccer Saturday's Phil Thompson starred for the Reds. I hope you can join us for two big games on Super Sunday from 1pm on Sky Sports 1HD.
Other things for punters to bear in mind this weekend: Arsenal are unbeaten in their last 13 visits to Villa Park (won seven). Cher was number one with 'Believe' when Villa last beat Arsenal at home (December 1998) and I can feel something inside me say that it will be another away win.
Stoke look a decent price at 11/10 to beat Fulham on Saturday. Tony Pulis' side looked much more like their old selves, particularly in the first half, on the Monday Night Football and have won three of the last four meetings with Fulham at the Britannia.
The big jump races come thick and fast over the next few weeks. This weekend sees the return of yet more high profile horses.
Long Run is the star of the show at Haydock in the Betfair Chase and with Kauto Star now in retirement, the way may be clear for him to return to the top of the chasing tree.
However, I think Long Run has plenty to prove these days and has a load of talented second season chasers snapping at his heels.
All Long Run's performances last season were consistent and of a decent level but none had the brilliance of his Gold Cup winning season. Can he get back to that level?
Punters will have to guess but one thing I do know is that Haydock is not his ideal track. The sharp bends don't suit his galloping style and I'm sure at some point on Saturday Sam Waley-Cohen will look in trouble.
It's such a shame Imperial Commander hasn't made the field as he would have been primed for this as his Gold Cup and would have been a good bet. Silviniaco Conti is Sky Bet's second favourite and sure to be popular after his impressive performance in the Charlie Hall. I'm not sure how good a renewal that was and this is a horse that still has a bit to prove for me.
"I think Long Run has plenty to prove these days and has a load of talented second season chasers snapping at his heels."
I think the race is ripe for an upset but I'm struggling to make a case for any of the bigger priced horses.
Finian's Rainbow is another star returning to the track this weekend. He's set to run in the Amlin Chase at Ascot.
He's the Champion Chaser yet I still don't think this horse gets the credit he deserves. Maybe that's because Sprinter Sacre steals the headlines in the Henderson stable. Finian's Rainbow is so much more relaxed these days that I fancy him to star over longer trips this season.
I think he'll win on Saturday and is my long-term fancy for the King George, and then possibly the Gold Cup. I think he's that good.

The game changer will be whatever revelations sasuke will have from orochimaru facilitating their meeting with the progenitor /human who knows everything. I think it will bring about significant changes to sasuke's attitude and mentality which began after the edo itachi experience had finished. It will mean naruto will have to alter his approach to sasuke either in degree of intensity or in angle of appreciation.
Orochimaru has little to offer the story after the meeting concludes. Kabuto, having became a new so6p being (obviously incomplete and unique in execution, lacking the uchiha and senju combination of components), kabuto having done that has replaced the story's need and focus on orochimaru obtaining sasuke's body or sharingan. It's kabuto's game now and if any snake is to take a sharingan it should be him, otherwise, it will be too tacky and matter of oversaturation concerning eye transplants among too many characters.
So, for sake of asking a question, will kabuto reappear after the izanami finishes? In what new way will he see himself and his destiny? Most importantly, will he advance his transformation into the 4th so6p?
Obito is Tobirama's great grandson. The proof is in the pudding.
Oro does not need Sasuke's body, he can simply Grow His own Sasuke that's already infused with Hashirama's cells, but lacking a soul in it.
I am not perfect and I defy you to prove otherwise
Growing Old Gracefully is an Oxymoron ... Mostly Moron !
apologies to anybody who already brought this up!
so, guys.. i found something interesting in my rereading...
kabuto used juugo cells to assist his access to sage mode. if that isn't the case, at the very least kabuto explained that juugo's clan's special ability is for their bodies to naturally utilize natural energy as a type of sage chakra to enhance their bodies and it was explained to be an ability granted them somehow by the dragon sage kabuto trained under. it's what allowed orochimaru to develop the cursed seal and is also why juugo can empathize and communicate with birds and animals.
now, sasuke was compatible with the cursed seal. furthermore, and this is most important ... when killer bee used lariat to counter sasuke after escaping his ms genjutsu the attack end follow up blow totally annihilated sasuke's neck and chest. juugo (now THIS is the important part) healed sasuke with his own flesh since uzumaki chakra of karin was insufficient. sasuke's chest and neck is literally juugo's body!
do you think that having endured the experience of cursed seal and later recieving juugo's cells that sasuke will have his own sage mode or refined ability to gather natural energy apart from his old cursed seal (that had limitations)?
keep in mind that the manga has given precedent with using partial body grafting to add powers. danzo, madara, obito, and kabuto all obtained powers not their own by using cells and body parts of other shinobi (hashirama all over the place). sasuke having juugo cells is no different! !
best evidence: obito and sasuke had their bodies healed in the EXACT SAME WAY! obito took hashirama flesh amd gained mokuton as a result!
kishi is cleverly hiding this and saving it for later and sasuke hasn't put it together yet!
so, will having juugo's cells and flesh grant sasuke access to sage arts/chakra?

Obito is Tobirama's great grandson. The proof is in the pudding.
the cursed seal contained "automatic" elements that took care of "sensing" and the juugo elements that took care of "gathering and processing"
at this point, sasuke need only to gain awareness of natural energy, to sense it but then gathering and processing will be advantageous because of juugo's cells.
this could still impact sasuke in a big way since the story went out of it's way to skirt the uzumaki aside and perform a critical healing in such an arbitrary one-off style at that time.
im predicting juugo's cells will link sasuke to the jyubi in a much more effective manner than madara and obito's mokuton "leash".

Here's a question that I've been thinking about lately: is it possible that the Uzumaki clan are the true descendants of the Younger Son, and not the Senju clan? I mean, yeah, Hashirama had his Mokuton jutsu, and was incredibly powerful. But it seems to me that the Uzumaki clan in general has more amazing abilities. All of them were renown for possessing huge chakra pools and longer than normal lifespans. They also seem to unique chakra abilities as well: Karin has her unique healing ability, Kushina had her chakra chains which she used to contain the Kyuubi, Mito was such a powerful sensor she could locate people by their emotions. It just seems to me that they have more power overall than the Senju clan did, aside from Hashirama.

Comments: Best barefoot shoe on the market. Had to buy 1/2 size smaller than the merrell road glove. Good on track runs and long runs (10-20mi). I logged 600 miles so far and believe they will go another 600. I run mainly on grass. Flexible, durable, comfortable, light weight, a true barefoot shoe.
From: ClayFeet, Texas, USA
Comments: Ditto to Henry on the sizing. I am 9.5 in most shoes, 9.0 in Merrell/Inov-8, and 8.5 in the Vapor Gloves. If you get the size right, they are the perfect "barefoot" shoes, more flexible and less clunky than Altra Adams or VFF KSOs, and more comfy than Inov-8 Bare-X 180s. The Vibram outsole on this model is (I believe) the best outsole out of all the models Merrell, VFF, and NB Minimus have to offer, and I'm a big fan of all of those lines.
From: Chas, Cornelius, NC, USA
Comments: There's plenty of info out there on this shoe, but here's a tip: in my experience, these run bigger than some other Merrell shoes. On my feet, an 11 in the Vapor Glove fits like an 11.5 in the Trail Glove and the Road Glove (version 1). While running, they feel like a well-worn Trail Glove where the EVA has collapsed, but without the lugs. Very minimal and super light.
From: Henry, Highland, NY

Skip to comments.Watching "Used Cars" tonight AND...
Posted on 08/17/2013 5:46:09 PM PDT by US Navy Vet
...That, "CaddyShack", and "Animal House" have got to be the FUNNIEST movies EVER!
Used Cars was freaking hilarious! Using Lenny and Squiggy to jam a presidential address was hysterical..
Ever watch 'Very Bad Things?'
Taste sure does vary. I didn't think any of them were extremely funny tho they had their moments.
The original "Vacation was good as was "The Gods Must Be Crazy". "Airplane" was funny as was "The Princess Bride".
My Mother thought "The Russians are Coming" was the funniest movie she had ever seen. I saw it not too long ago and thought it was just OK.
All 3 still make me laugh hard everytime I see them.
Monty Python and the Holy Grail was the funniest movie ever! Animal House is a solid second...
Try "Pink Flamingos"... if you dare.
Be that as it may at 10PM eastern I'm switching to Svengoolie.
This week "The Mummy's Tomb."
I also liked "Better Off Dead" and "A Christmas Story" too. I guess that I just like SCHLOCKY Movies! O I liked "Stripes" too!
Movies like this make me forget the WORTHLESS 2000s!
What channel?!!!
Used Cars was the one that had the scene where the sales guy placed a large rock under a tire during a test drive and backed over it. He had a trained dog scoot under the car and play dead, making the customers feel guilty enough to buy the car telling them this was the dog's favorite car (or something like that).
"Animal House" man, myself. Loved "Blazing Saddles."
Trust me....I love them all. Throw 1941 into that basket as well.
Mad, Mad, mad , mad world.
I almost crapped when Jimmy Durante kicked the bucket.
I loved "The Gods Must Be Crazy". I also liked "Men at Work" and "Rat Race".
Did that, certainly don't recommend it.
2 of my favs..Planes, Trains and Automobiles and the original uncensored Major League. For hystericals...the Fawlty Tower series
YES! Best movie EVAR!
Animal House was good. But my list would include Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstien, and Airplane. Plus The Naked Gun had moments.
Bookmarking. Mel was genius. Young Frankenstein, one of my favorites.
I can't believe I've never seen some of these..
... and A Shot in the Dark.
Hey, it's fun for the whole family. ;-D
"I said a Phillips head. Toby"
One of my favorite movies of all time. Absolutely hilarious fun. Back when no one gave a schitt about who was offended. Kurt Russell was the perfect guy for the role.
Thanks for the link.
If your using Firefox, get the addon "Download Helper". You can download the movie....or any youtube video.
I forgot about "Young Frankenstein". One of the best. "Elevate me", "Here, right now?"
It's a shame when people be throwin' out a perfectly good white boy.
This Omaha
Thanks for the link. Great movie.
On TCM today there was one called Rationing. It was a nice surprise. It has Ma Kettle in it.
That movie could not be made today what with 'political correctness' !!
= = = = = = = = = = = = =
Too bad TCM won't get and give plenty of alert to "Blazing Saddles".
Most of the stations that play it bleep out all the 'bad' (well, they say bad) stuff.
I found it on IFC (Ch 133 on Dish)and they played it UNCUT, but it had commercials.
They ran it about 8 times in a weeks period..
Just watched it this afternoon and they even managed to take a shot at the "Irish" when the RR workers demanded a home in the town and the Johnsons said the Blacks were Ok but only the Blacks...they protested and the Johnsons said "Ok everyone BUT the Irish"....think they finally gave in BUT they managed to hit every known ethnic and racial slur for THAT time frame....including 'farting' and 'faggots'.
You are absolutely 66% right! My personal top 3 is Used Cars, Animal House, and Blazing Saddles. But, we make allowances for such differences ;-)
Used Cars is still funny start-to-end, and some parts of it have worked it's way into my lexicon. "Fifty bucks never killed anybody"....
And you cannot top taking a firehose to nuns when it comes to humor!
Are you watching THIS TV network
That was on other day
It's on again!
Somehow I forgot This is Spinal Tap.
Have you see PBS American Masters with Mel Brooks that was eye opener origially Mel going write Sheriff Bart part for Richard Pryor but Richard drug habit really didn't please with Warner Bros
One of Warner Bros exec want whole punch out the horse scene cut out and old lady get punch cut out
Seriously but Mel ignore them
That was on BBC America last night LOL! Spinal Tap
You never watched "The Pink Panther Strikes Again" ?? I've seen it numerous times and every time I see it I laugh again. As I type this my minds eye is bringing it back causing me to laugh.
Really it on THIS TV network if so cool
I Got Movies TV network
I get that network This TV Antenna TV Bounce TV (which I saw original Shaft last weekend LOL)
Soon we get get TV channel which going be on Univision sub channel in ENGLISH
I'd put "One, Two, Three" on my list.
They showing Wallace Beery on TCM today it is August they profile star each day they showing Grand HOtel, Dinner at Eight, Mil and Bill
I saw Big House
And Wallace first role as Indian in Last of Monchians LOL!
Or what about High Anxiety.
"Toilet training. That's a vast area. Let's be more specific. Are we talking about...number one or cocky-doody?"
You killed my dog, mister. You killed my dog! All he wanted was for you to be happy in this car
and now hes dead.

- Brief Synopsis:
- With boisterous humor, compassion, and sharp-edged wit, Sheridan captures the lives of his eccentric, talented and very loving Dublin family in the 1960s.
- Long Synopsis:
- Young Peter has a hilarious yet tender masculine perspective. You'll wish he had been your best friend or big brother. In recalling his childhood in Dublin from 1959 through 1970 Peter Sheridan shows his worthiness in carrying on the Irish traditional mastery of storytelling. At age 8 he proudly pedals his bike through Dublin streets on his Da's errands and willingly risks his life to help install the antenna for the family's first TV. Sheridan describes his parents' struggles with a new-fangled, epileptic, washing machine like he's announcing a prize fight. Though his boyhood classroom is an ocean and away and 45 years ago you'll laugh and cringe in recognition. You'll watch a children's Gaelic football game that is shockingly all tragedy and no sport. When Peter reaches his teens, you'll experience his first exposure to the Beatles, his first awkward dates, first rebellion against Da, first band, first realization of his Ma's wisdom and sacrifice for the family, and his discovery of the joys of live theater. Through tragedy and loss of innocence, a sensitive, creative, kind young boy grows in to a man with his compassion, humor and love of family in tact. Author uses a dash before quoted words to indicate quotes in dialogue instead of quotation marks or apostrophies. Adult language is occasionally used in dialogue.

Hello, and welcome to "Meet your SEO"…The Takeover!! For those of you who don't know (where have you been??) my good buddy Alessio Madeyski (twitter) has been running a fantastic series of interviews featuring great SEO's from all over the world. I had the honour of being the first person to be featured in the series and have been hooked ever since. It's not that often that I read SEO interviews but I never miss one of these.
Alessio is dedicated to becoming a famous and well respected SEO. Don't believe me? Well check out the yellow background AND facial hair! Remind you of anybody?
Alessio is a scientist (molecular biologist know less!) turned SEO coming out of his beautiful homeland of Italy, he is well travelled and has lived across Europe, finally settleing (for the moment) in Berlin, Germany. Currently he is the SEO Manager for well know eCom company Zalando looking after their Scandinavian and Italian operation.
When did you enter the SEO world, and why ?
I entered as SEO in 2011. I came to Berlin looking for a job and I found one as social media strategist (I know they call this type of job this way, so I'm using it). After few months, people told me that a big fashion ecommerce was looking for an SEO manager for the italian market, I applied and it went well. Basically I was looking for an excuse to go away from the laboratory environments (I am a molecular biologist), because I was sick of dissecting mice or working with yeast. I mean, have you ever tried to talk to yeast at 10pm in an empty lab?
A great tip about onpage optimization?
Be awesome. Be creative. That's what I'm saying every day to my onpage team. I really care about user experience in the page. Maybe nobody is gonna read that text, but still I know we can create something cool. Write what you first would like to read in a site.
The most stupid thing people believe about onpage optimization?
Keyword density. Really I heard too many things about this KW density bullshit. Do you really think it's nice to see something with the same word repeated over and over and over? are you out of your mind? Get rid of that!
A great tip on how you build links?
Relationship. I know it's unpopular, but I really try to create good relationships with bloggers and webmasters. It requires time, but it's amazing. First of all because you get to know new people in the world, with different minds, with different culture. Second, because the links are simple to have when you create this. You start with a link, and then usually they are gonna link to you over and over, because of the good impression you gave.
The most stupid thing you heard about linkbuilding?
I never paid for a link. Bullshit. I mean, it depends what you mean. I think that if you are selling book, and you send a book for a review, you have paid for that link. Maybe you didn't give money, but you paid for it. Don't be afraid of saying you pay for link, because it's not always bad in my opinion (for example, reviews).
If you have to explain what you do at a 10 year-old kid , what are you gonna say?
You know when you search something on Google and you find what you need? It's me that makes this possible. After that, I think I'd walk away because 10 year-old kids smell like candies and they are usually dirty.
What do you drink when seoing?
Red Bull when I can, but I have to find a deli nearby. Otherwise water and coffee in the morning. I strongly believe that beers help you out, especially at the end of the day.
What do you think about SEO community?
I think it's great. Like all community there are people I admire, people who are total jerks. I receive a lot of good vibes and help from other SEOs and I'm really great to be part of this community. I don't like when SEOs are talking only about SEO and marketing, I prefer to know people beyond that and that's why I did the "Now! That's what SEOs call music" post and I'm interviewing SEOs in a relaxed way.
Usually at this point Alessio asks the interviewer to ask themselves a question, but this is the takeover, and it's my rules! So I'm going to ask one of my own.
How do you find SEO'ing in a foreign country in what is not your first language? Does it make the job more difficult?
I'm responsible for SEO in Italy, so to this I have no problem. I have a fantastic team working with me, all of them are italian. Now I am responsible even for SEO for some scandinavian countries (ad interim) and that is a challenge. I don't know danish or finnish, so it's really hard to have control of the quality of the content for example. But once again, I'm lucky enough to have awesome people from these countries working with me, and the best think you can do is motivate them and then TRUST them. What I often see is that people don't trust each other. In my case, trust is all. And till now, it went all really good. Then there is the German part: unfortunately I don't know german, I tried twice, but I don't get it. I think I'm lazy, and probably a little bit dumb even. In the office we can talk in English with no problems, but then often they comment in german, and they think I don't get it. Wrong! I have a simultaneous translator implanted in my brain, you silly.
Who is your biggest SEO influence?
There are many actually, but basically the ones who are cool enough to help me and interact with me on twitter, even if I am a newbie. My SEO influences, and people I admire in general, are the ones who are humble despite the fact they are like god in what they're doing.
If you weren't an SEO, what would you like to do ?
I would like to go in tour with some big bands, like Iron Maiden, or Nine Inch Nails as manager or something like that. Wouldn't it be cool? Or even be the man inside Iron Maiden's Eddie. I like SEO to be honest, and I was in danger to be a molecular biologist all my life!
I'd just like to say a huge "Thanks" to Alessio for letting me basically hijack his idea for my blog 🙂 Cheers! If you want to ask him your own questions just drop it in the comments section and we'll see if he's good enough to answer…

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
As the election draws nearer, I would have to say I'm glad it will soon be over. I'm also glad there has been a lot of interest in the candidates and the issues on the ballot this year. There are those who have said the paper has been monument friendly. There are those who have said that we have not been monument friendly. I feel then that we have succeeded in portraying the county sentiment for as you know there are those both for and against the issue.
I say issue because there is not a clear monument proposal being voted on this election day. You as a voter have not had a proposal of any sort to look at and review and make a decision upon based upon its merits or lack of them. I learned at a recent meeting the whole deal about putting this initiative on the ballot was the size, 621,000 acres.......which those who gathered signatures to have the initative put on the ballot feel is too large an area and violates what the Antiquities Act was originally intended to do. They felt that on Nov. 6 things could start over and they could help redefine size and be able to contribute their ideas and perspectives; perhaps smaller monuments directly preserving certain aspects of the Swell.
What they fail to realize is that a no vote means just that, no. I wish this could be brought to a vote two years from now, when a clear proposal has been worked out to give the voters something in their hands to study. Voting yes or no without a clear proposal in hand to me is absurd. The acreage of a would be monument is not written in stone. It cannot be, because there isn't a plan. There is a letter to the editor this edition which describes the commissioners as being arrogant and childish, but to me they are no more arrogant and childish than those who say, 'We weren't invited to plan the dance, so we're going to pull the plug on the band.' They always seem to go back to the surprise announcement at a Jan. 26 meeting and the Governor's State of the State address on Jan. 28. How much more angry would they have been if a monument proposal plan and management plan with an already selected advisory council had been formulated before this announcement. This would have been a President Clinton type move. But, the announcement to begin a plan to consider monument status hardly calls for the death penalty. A yes vote will continue the process to explore the possibility of a monument. A no vote will kill the process. There have been attempts to create fear about this issue. I hope we all cast our votes with knowledge and facts, not fear and supposition.
I would end my ramblings by letting you know I hate the desert. I could care less either way this initiative goes. Give me a mountain stream, a blanket and a good book and I'm in heaven. I won't tell you who I think helped design deserts.
I love democracy and the right to choose. I love the fact that those who enjoy the desert can go there and use it whether for recreation, grazing, mining, hiking, biking, ATVs, getting lost or whatever.
Our economy could use a boost, even if the western end of the county doesn't want any new development. Green River is a perfect gateway to the Swell. Their current motel occupancy rate is 60 percent. What is wrong with 100 percent?
My family moved to Huntington in 1972, when my father went to work at the Huntington power plant, I would have to say the desert looks the very same to me now in October 2002 as it did in June of 1972. (I do go there occasionally.) It appears to me the desert thrives and the first good wind covers our tracks.
I love this county and those of you who live here. I hope our future is prosperous no matter which way the vote goes on Nov. 5.

MCS Team Visits Areas Impacted by Sandy
"This picture sums up a major theme from our trip," Reaves says."These homes appear to have limited damage, however, upon closer inspection you actually see flood lines, foundation damage and extensive debris removed from the interior of homes. Many of the houses we saw did not belong where they were; their foundations were several houses down. Condemnation notices were posted on many properties."
This is an example of where piles of debris, which lined the streets, were being removed from homes by different agencies and heaped into large mounds.
Much of the beachfront devastation reminds us that a number of businesses and local landmarks, such as Seaside Heights, were impacted in the same manner as individuals. So many people did not have flood insurance, and must now cover expenses on their own, she says. "However, almost everyone we spoke with mentioned their plans to rebuild."
Rehabilitation is making headway across neighborhoods impacted by the storm. People are being careful, and taking the proper precautions during the rehab of these homes by bringing in hazmat teams to examine the severity of water and internal damages.
This window at Fast Break, a Toms River, N.J., diner, depicts a common image displayed around the area. This is where the MCS group met Cindy, the owner of Fast Break. She shared information that helped direct MCS along the trip to various cities which were affected. The home of Cindy�s mother was 100 years old, and had never seen flood damage until now. The people affected by this disaster were genuinely happy they have held onto their safety and were willing to help their communities in any way they could.
The Manhattan Red Cross had recently consolidated space and planned to rent out the top floor of their building. It is now dedicated completely to Sandy relief, and accommodates hundreds of volunteers all rapidly engaged in activity.
MCS visited with American Red Cross workers after touring the facility, and seeing firsthand the impact the organization has on those who have been affected by disasters.Pictured left to right with Johnny and Julie from American Red Cross are: Anthony Calabrese, Caroline Reaves, Mark Reaves and Marc Hinkle.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency was out in full force. FEMA inspectors were surveying property damage by working with homeowners to properly identify home damages as well as individual needs.
After the devastation of Superstorm Sandy, MCS employees were anxious to begin fundraising. �Our company is fortunate enough to have matched their contributions,� Reaves says. "Handing this check to Johnny Cooper from the American Red Cross was one of the highlights of our visit." Financial donations are what make the greatest impact by helping the Red Cross provide immediate assistance to those affected by disasters such as Superstorm Sandy. Any donations that you or your company would like to make are still welcome and needed. Call the American Red Cross at 1.800.733.2767 for details, or visit their website to donate now.�

I was just pondering, since i was watching the battle with masked "Madara" vs Minato and some questions came up.
At the bottom left panel, we see "Madara's" left arm oozing off. But it seems that Obito's left side werent crushed during his nap time under the boulders.
And here at the bottom right panel we see his left arm intact.
Sure he was bandaged up, but not amputated like his right arm. Why is that?
This makes me think that it wasn't Obito during his battle with Minato.
