1st Gear: Only A "Couple Dozen" Volt Owners Seek GM Buy Back After Crash Tests
General Motors told the Detroit News on Monday that a "couple dozen" Chevy Volt owners have asked the Detroit automaker to buy back their extended-range electric vehicles after a federal safety investigation into post-crash-testing fires. GM spokesman Greg Martin said the company was talking to owners about their concerns and again reiterated that the company will not only loan out vehicles but also buy back the vehicles if customers aren't happy. He also emphasized the Volt is safe. "Our actions will be guided by our customers' satisfaction," Martin said. Which again is why we think they should all be loaned Corvettes. You know, for their own protection.
2nd Gear: Ford Searches For America's Next Top CEO
According to a report this morning in the Wall Street Journal, Ford has begun a search for candidates to replace current CEO Alan "Boeing! Boeing!" Mulally, who many expect to leave the company within the next two years. Candidates for the position include at least two former Ford executives as well as two internal candidates, those people said. The internal candidates are Americas President Mark Fields, 50, and Joe Hinrichs, 45, the chief of Asian operations. The external candidates include one who should be no surprise — John Krafcik, CEO of Hyundai's North American arm and one who should be a surprise — Phil Martens, CEO of Novelis Inc., an aluminum products company. But you'll of course see it all happen live — and get to vote for the winner by texting — on American Idol: Ford CEO Edition, starting next year on FOX!
3rd Gear: NHTSA Inspects Jeep Grand Cherokee Involved In Fiery Death
The New York Times reports that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating a recent crash of a 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee in which a Florida man died as part of its effort to determine whether millions of Jeep Grand Cherokees from the 1993-2004 model years should be recalled because their gas tanks may be susceptible to rupturing in rear impacts. This of course might actually lead to fiery death. The accident occurred on Nov. 16 on Interstate 4 in Lake Mary, Fla., according to a report from the state's highway patrol. That report says a 1997 Grand Cherokee was struck from behind by a 2002 Mercury Mountaineer after the driver failed to notice traffic ahead had stopped. The Jeep caught fire after the impact, and a 24-year-old passenger was trapped in the vehicle and died.
4th Gear: BP Says Halliburton 'Destroyed Evidence' After Gulf Of Mexico Oil Spill
CNN reports this morning that British energy giant BP is accusing Halliburton of intentionally destroying evidence to conceal its role in the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil rig disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. In documents filed at a federal court in New Orleans, BP claims Halliburton destroyed evidence on cement slurry testing and refused to provide "inexplicably missing" computer modeling results. "Halliburton's refusal has been unwavering, despite repeated BP discovery requests and a specific order from this Court," CNN said, quoting from the documents. "BP has now learned the reason for Halliburton's intransigence — Halliburton destroyed the results of physical slurry testing, and it has, at best, lost the computer modeling outputs that showed no channeling. More egregious still, Halliburton intentionally destroyed the evidence related to its nonprivileged cement testing, in part because it wanted to eliminate any risk that this evidence would be used against it at trial." Also, you know, BP's spending a lot of money on commercials touting tourism to the Gulf region. Maybe they want Halliburton to pick up some of the tab too?
5th Gear: Ford Website Leaks Ecosport Images
Although photos of new Ford Fiesta-bodied crossover mules have been making the rounds as the big blue oval works to get prototypes of the next-gen EcoSport ready, IndianAutosBlog reader Mallik Kslikiri found fully naked images on Ford India's under-construction EcoSport page. Although Ford India has since taken them down, IndianAutosBlog and World Car Fans are still showing off the screenshots.
6th Gear: Mitsubishi To Offer Super Sedan Potential For Mirage
Mitsubishi plans to offer a sedan version of its just-unveiled Mirage, as it aims to lure new customers to the tri-diamond brand. Speaking to GoAuto at last week's Tokyo Motor Show, Mitsubishi design general manager Hiroaki Ohtsuka confirmed a Mirage sedan was in the pipeline to sell alongside the hatch in markets where they're actually selling cars (probably not here anytime soon), but that it was still some time away. They report that the Japanese designer cited the cigar-shaped Audi 100 of 1982, and the third-generation Audi 80 from 1986 to 1994, as influences that helped mould him as a stylist. Which is sort of a shame, as we would have rather seen someone designing Mitsubishis that took their design influences from old 80s Mitsubishis. Because even if you're not using the old Mirage as your design influence, all we have to say is — SUPER POTENTIAL STARION, FTW!

Today in Automotive History:
On December 6, 1976, the professional stuntwoman Kitty O'Neil sets the land-speed record for female drivers at the Alvord Desert in southeastern Oregon. The record hovered around 400 mph; O'Neil's two-way average speed was 512.710 mph. (The rules that govern land-speed records require that a driver make two passes across a measured course, one out and one back; officials then average the two speeds.) Observers reported that O'Neil's car actually reached a top speed of more than 618 miles per hour on her first pass, but she ran out of fuel and had to coast to the end of the course. [History]

In keeping with the aims of a liberal education, the music department offers all students opportunities to expand their understanding of music and its place in society. Students actively engage diverse musical materials in a variety of contexts. In ensembles and private lessons, students mature as singers or instrumentalists, better understanding music by performing it. In courses, students develop critical skills for experiencing, creating and using music effectively and intelligently. The department offers both a major and a minor in music, and provides all students with ways of participating in music.
Guiding principles for the department in setting learning goals for students are:
- the importance of close, active listening, as well as articulating what one is hearing
- the importance of participating actively and reliably in collective work
- the importance of learning to lead responsibly
- the importance of responsible decision-making
- the importance of a disciplined approach to problem-solving
We emphasize collaborative and interdisciplinary study. Many music classes include work in the Newell Center for Arts Technology, where students learn to use digital technology to compose and perform music, to design sound for theatrical productions and to create multimedia works. Special topics courses focus on particular composers, genres or regions of the world, and typically involve extensive study of scores and recordings from the music library.
Music department ensembles — the Laurentian Singers, the University Chorus, the Early Music Singers, the String Orchestra, the Concert Band and the Rhythm & Roots Ensemble — are open to all St. Lawrence students by audition. Performances, residencies and workshops by a wide array of guest artists additionally enrich musical life on campus.
Exemplary student participation in ensembles and coursework is recognized by induction into the Ives Society. Applications for membership in this departmental honor society are due each December. Individual awards in keyboard study, choral performance, and other fields of study are given annually at Moving-Up Day.

Not at all.
I simply don't photograph like crazy anymore.
Also, since I still stick to film (yes: F I L M - remember???), I can't do (would never do) what many digital shark photographers do most of the time: Hold the camera against the sharks with outstretched arms and shoot 4-5 frames per second.
My camera, the good old Nikonos V, a manual instrument, is an extension of my eye, not of my arms - or a pole. No offense, my dear digital friends - let's just say that I am a "traditional" photographer, "old school", or, perhaps more fittingly, an "old fart" who is unable to adjust to the new modernity... :-)
I have dived several times, even days, with one roll of film (36 images); the digital colleagues typically took as many as 200 images per dive.
So, I came back from Tiger Beach with a total of not even 30 tiger shark images of which I have scanned and uploaded only a few - have a look:

While the technology industry remains baffled about why Google decided to acquire Motorola Mobility, I have spotlighted one of the key assets that is largely being overlooked in the deal: Motorola's Webtop software. In an in-depth report for TechRepublic's sister site CNET, you can read about how Webtop snuck up on the tech world, the power of Webtop 2.0, and my analysis of how Google could effectively use Webtop to give Android a big boost in its race against Apple and Microsoft in the post-PC world.
This topic also has major enterprise implications as well. If Google were to integrate Webtop into the next version of Android then it would create a huge market of smartphones that could dock and serve as thin client devices, accessing the Web and Citrix. These PC replacements could pose a big challenge to the stranglehold that Microsoft Windows has on the enterprise.

In five months, we will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington. In 1963, the March was jointly called by the Civil Rights Movement's "Big Six" – A. Philip Randolph, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Roy Wilkins, Whitney Young, James Farmer and John Lewis.
At this point, it is unclear whether today's leaders will come together and rally around the theme of jobs and justice as leaders did on Aug. 28, 1963.
Al Sharpton and Martin Luther King, III are planning a march in Washington. Bernice King has announced a commemoration of the "I Have a Dream" speech at the King Center in Atlanta to observe the 50th anniversary. The Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), Dr. King's old organization, will be holding its annual convention in the nation's capital the week of the anniversary and is considering holding an activity.
The foundation that raised more than $100 million to erect the MLK monument on the National Mall – and was forced by King's children to drop the reference to Dr. King in its name – is still hoping it can participate in a joint celebration by all of the civil rights groups.
Interestingly, the Big Six managed to come together when the Black unemployment rate was 6.7 percent, compared to 3.2 percent for Whites. The unemployment rate for Blacks 20 and older in February was 12.7 percent – nearly double what it was at the time of the March on Washington.
Of course, any discussion about the preservation of Dr. King's legacy invariably involves his three remaining children – Martin III, Bernice and Dexter. While appreciating the King family's desire to protect intellectual property left to them by their father, including his "I Have a Dream" speech, I have been critical of their decision to charge what had been known as the Martin Luther King National Memorial Project Foundation, Inc. a licensing fee of nearly $3 million to use his name, likeness and quotes in conjunction with a monument erected to him on the National Mall. I also upbraided them for, after making the decision to charge a licensing fee, refusing to extend the agreement, forcing the foundation to change its name (it is now The Memorial Foundation) and limit the scope of the monument-connected activities it had planned to advance Dr. King's legacy.
Roland Martin and Joe Williams have an interesting article on rolandmartinreports.com about the controversy.
We had a heated discussion Sunday on "Washington Watch with Roland Martin" about the King children's interaction with Harry Johnson and the group that raised the money for the King monument on the Mall, the first to honor an African American. In response to my earlier column on the subject, Armstrong Williams wrote a column claiming I had slandered the King family and "For Mr. Curry to spread the falsehood that the King family is charging schools for the 'I Have a Dream' speech is not only wrong, but embarrassing to these good people."
After schooling Armstrong Sunday on the difference between "slander," defamation that is spoken, and "libel," which is written, I told him I couldn't have possibly made that charge because I never used the word "school" anywhere in my column. He waited four months to reply and still didn't get it right. To his credit, Armstrong acknowledged his error on-air and apologized.
During the program Sunday, Roland said he had spoken with Tricia Harris, a King representative, who said the money paid to the Kings was for corporations that exploited Dr. King's image and they had not received money from the foundation for using quotes and the likeness of Dr. King.
I said, "She's lying."
Harris sent me a note taking exception to my comment and said, "It's a great American tragedy when influential African Americans attack the King family for protecting and benefiting from Dr. King's work when he set it up that way."
Actually, King, Inc. was created after Dr. King's assassination. Therefore, he did not "set it up that way." Second, the licensing agreement does in fact extract a fee from the mall foundation in exchange for using his likeness on materials and quotes at the memorial.
Let's be clear: No one is objecting to the King siblings profiting from their father's intellectual properties. The issue is, unlike the descendants of Thomas Jefferson, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, they are trying to personally profit from a national monument that honors their father and the struggle he led.
David Garrow, a Pulitzer Prize-winning King biographer, told the Roland Martin and Joe Williams: "It's not as if (King, Inc.) is using any of this income for charitable good deeds. We've seen none of that whatsoever. It appears to be simply self-enrichment for a small number of people."
As great as he was, the March on Washington wasn't about Dr. King. It was about jobs and freedom. Sadly, 50 years later, we need a similar march that unites our leaders around those same issues.
George E. Curry, former editor-in-chief of Emerge magazine, is editor-in-chief of the National Newspaper Publishers Association News Service (NNPA.) He is a keynote speaker, moderator, and media coach.

Definition of benzene:
Benzene is a colourless liquid with a sweet odor. It is highly flammable and is formed from both natural processes and human activities. [1]
This is the common definition for benzene, other definitions can be discussed in the article
Benzene is widely used in the United States; it ranks in the top 20 chemicals for production volume. Some industries form benzene to produce other chemicals which are used to make plastics, resins, nylon and synthetic fibers. Benzene is also used to make some types of rubbers, lubricants, dyes, detergents, drugs and pesticides. Natural sources of benzene include volcanoes and forest fires. Benzene is also a natural part of crude oil, gasoline, and cigarette smoke.[1]
Anthropogenic releases of benzene into the atmosphere result mainly from environmental auto mobile exhaust and refuelling, tobacco smoke and industrial emissions.
Benzene has a moderate water solubility of 1,78 g/l, but is highly volatile and can rapidly evaporate from surface waters to the atmosphere. It has a low adsorption to sediments or soils and will be removed from them into surface or ground water and the atmosphere. In the atmosphere it will be degraded within 8 days, while its half-life in water is 16 days.
Benzene has a low tendency to bioaccumulate, concentrations in goldfish are typically only 4 times higher than those in the environment. Therefore it is not considered likely to biomagnify though food chains. [2]
The most sensitive crustaceans experience acute toxicity at benzene concentrations above 3.3 mg/l although most other crustaceans tolerate concentrations up to 120 mg/l. The most sensitive fish species die at exposure to concentrations above 4.9 mg/l, although most species tolerate short term exposure to benzene concentrations of up to 100 mg/l. [3]
Concentrations in air typically range between 0.3 ppb and 159 ppb. The highest measured concentration of benzene in marine waters is 315 µg/l. [2]

The Supreme Court is looking out for Americans with employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs), a form of retirement plan.
That's what the justices essentially said in their unanimous June 25 decision in Fifth Third v. Dudenhoeffer, in which employees sued because their ESOP administrators invested in a way that caused them to lose money.
In this case, the administrators, or "fiduciaries," had invested the employees' money in the employer's own stock even though they knew (according to the plaintiffs) that the bank was in financial trouble. As a result, the workers lost money.
>> Sign up for the AARP Money newsletter.
The federal appeals court eventually held that the fiduciaries of an ESOP were entitled to a presumption of prudence – in other words, they should be presumed to have acted wisely unless proved otherwise.
But no longer. As AARP Litigation Foundation attorney Mary Ellen Signorille explains: "The Supreme Court's decision was simple: If you are a fiduciary, you have an obligation to make decisions based on the best interests of the participants and beneficiaries, regardless of the investment vehicle."
In other words, ESOP administrators get no special breaks – they have to act just as carefully as administrators of all other kinds of investment plans.
>> Get travel discounts with your AARP Member Advantages.
So what does this mean for you? The good news is that, whatever kind of retirement plan you have, the plan administrator must act prudently with your money. Still, experts say, you'll probably need a rock-solid case to win a lawsuit over a stock-investment program.

Authorship: (Assumed)Aulus Avilius Flaccus
Year Written: (Assumed)32 AD
Scripture Type:Philo
Philo of Alexandria was a Hellenistic Jewish philosopher who lived in Alexandria, in the Roman province of Egypt. Philo used philosophical allegory to attempt to fuse and harmonize Greek philosophy with Jewish philosophy. His method followed the practices of both Jewish exegesis and Stoic philosophy. His allegorical exegesis was important for several Christian Church Fathers, but he has barely any reception history within Rabbinic Judaism. He believed that literal interpretations of the Hebrew Bible would stifle humanity's view and perception of a God too complex and marvelous to be understood in literal human terms.

What the Heck Is the HIV "Treatment Cascade" -- And Why Does It Matter?
March 12, 2013
If you haven't heard the phrase "treatment cascade" yet, you will. The creation of this concept is likely to shake out as one of the transformative moments in our understanding of the HIV epidemic in the U.S. It also provides a really cool reminder of how powerful it can be to portray data visually. So, whether you're familiar with the treatment cascade or not, it's worth spending a moment to go back over it.
The HIV treatment cascade "describes the journey that HIV-positive persons take as they navigate the health care system," as Kevin Fenton, M.D., Ph.D., then-director of the CDC's National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention, eloquently put it. Originally published in a journal in March 2011, the cascade has been through various visual incarnations. Here's the original:
Before the cascade came along, the information we had on these gaps was much more sporadic -- and, maybe as important, was not portrayed in nearly as compelling or eye-grabbing a manner. We are creatures ruled by our senses, and we tend to understand difficult information better when it's presented in a format we can easily digest.
These data have spurred a huge amount of discussion and debate over the best ways to fill these gaps, and the factors that lead to them being so wide (particularly for some groups of people as compared to others, such as African Americans or people with low incomes).
Throughout this year, we'll be taking a closer look at various aspects of the treatment cascade. In the process, we hope to help shine a light on some of the reasons why so many people seem to get lost along the way to an undetectable viral load, as well as some of the ideas that our community's brightest minds have come up with for how to turn the cascade into a plateau -- with every person living with HIV in the U.S. on top of their diagnosis and treatment, rather than falling off one of the edges and being lost to the care they need.
To close, here's another visual representation of the treatment cascade -- a video from AIDS.gov.

WordPress was originally created as a weblog or blog platform. But now WordPress has grown so powerful that you can use it to create any type of website and use it as a Content Management System (CMS). In this article, I'm going to share some of my WordPress tricks with you on how to make a better WordPress theme. I'm not a programmer nor developer, so I will focus more on the frontend development. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that WordPress has made it so easy that even a non-programmer (designer like me) can build a wonderful website. My WordPress sites included: N.Design Studio, Best Web Gallery, Web Designer Wall, and some free WordPress Themes.
WordPress Conditional Tags
Conditional Tags are very useful when creating a dynamic WordPress theme. It allows you to control what content is displayed and how that content is displayed. Here are couple sample uses of Conditional Tags:
Dynamic Highlight Menu
Here is what I used to create a dynamic highlight menu on Best Web Gallery. In the first list item, if it is Home or Category or Archive or Search or Single, add class="current" to the

 tag, which will highlight the "Gallery" button. Second item, if it is page with Page Slug "about", add class="current".

<li<?php if ( is_home() || is_category() || is_archive() || is_search() || is_single() || is_date() ) { echo ' class="current"'; } ?>>Gallery

<li<?php if ( is_page('about') ) { echo ' class="current"'; } ?>>About

<li<?php if ( is_page('submit') ) { echo ' class="current"'; } ?>>Submit

Dynamic Title tag
Again, I use Conditational Tags to output dynamic
<title> tag in the header.php.
if (is_home()) {
echo bloginfo('name');
} elseif (is_404()) {
echo '404 Not Found';
} elseif (is_category()) {
echo 'Category:'; wp_title('');
} elseif (is_search()) {
echo 'Search Results';
} elseif ( is_day() || is_month() || is_year() ) {
echo 'Archives:'; wp_title('');
} else {
echo wp_title('');
Dynamic Content
If you want to include a file that will only appear on the frontpage, here is the code:
<?php if ( is_home() ) { include ('file.php'); } ?>
Feature post highlighting
Let's say categoryID 2 is your Feature category and you want to add a CSS class to highlight all posts that are in Feature, you can use the following snippet in The Loop.
<?php if ( in_category('2') ) { echo ('class="feature"'); } ?>
Unique Single template
Suppose you want to use different Single template to display individual post in certain category. You can use the
in_category to check what category is the post stored in and then use different Single template. In your default single.php, enter the code below. If the post is in category 1, use single1.php, elseif in category 2, use single2.php, otherwise use single_other.php.
$post = $wp_query- >post;
if ( in_category('1') ) {
include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/single1.php');
} elseif ( in_category('2') ) {
include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/single2.php');
} else {
include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/single_other.php');
? >
Unique Category template
Suppose you want to use different Category template to display specific category. Simply save your Category template as category-2.php (note: add "-" and the categoryID number to the file name). So, category-2.php will be used to display categoryID 2, category-3.php will be used for categoryID 3, and so on.
Display Google Ad after the first post
A lot of people have asked me for this. How to display a Google ad after the first post? It is very simple. You just need to add a variable (
$loopcounter) in The Loop. If the
$loopcounter is less than or equal to 1, then include google-ad.php code.
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); $loopcounter++; ?>
// the loop stuffs
<?php if ($loopcounter <= 1) { include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/ad.php'); } ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php else : ?>
<?php endif; ?>
Query Posts
You can use query_posts to control which posts to show up in The Loop. It allows you to control what content to display, where to display, and how to display it. You can query or exclude specific categories, so you get full control of it. Here I will show you how to use
query_posts to display a list of Latest Posts, Feature Posts, and how to exclude specific category.
Display Latest Posts
The following code will output the 5 latest posts in a list:
<?php query_posts('showposts=5'); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?>

<?php endwhile;?>
Display Feature Posts
Let's say categoryID 2 is your Feature category and you want to display 5 Feature posts in the sidebar, put this in your sidebar.php:
<?php query_posts('cat=2&showposts=5'); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?>

<?php endwhile;?>
Exclude specific category
You can also use
query_posts to exclude specific category being displayed. The following code will exclude all posts in categoryID 2 (note: there is a minus sign before the ID number):
<?php query_posts('cat=-2'); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
//the loop here
<?php endwhile;?>
Tips: you can overwrite the posts per page setting by using
posts_per_page parameter (ie.
<?php query_posts('posts_per_page=6'); ?>)
Custom Fields
Custom field is one the most powerful WordPress features. It allows you to attach extra data or text to the post along with the content and excerpt. With Custom Fields, you can literally trun a WordPress into any web portal CMS. On Web Designer Wall, I use Custom Field to display the article image and link it to the post.
First add the Custom Field in the post.
To display the article image and attach it with the post link, put the following code in The Loop:
<?php //get article_image (custom field) ?>
<?php $image = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'article_image', true); ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><img src="<?php echo $image; ?>" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" />
Tips: don't forget WordPress allows you to create/store multi keys and the keys can be used more than once per post.
I used the same methodology and created a very dynamic template at Best Web Gallery, where I used Custom Fields to display the site thumbnail, tooltip image, and URL.
WP List Pages
Template tag wp_list_pages is commonly used to display a list of WP Pages in the header and sidebar for navigation purpose. Here I will show you how to use
wp_list_pages to display a sitemap and sub-menu.
Site map
To generate a sitemap (sample) of all your Pages, put this code in your sitemap Page Template (note: I exclude pageID 12 because page12 is my sitemap page and I don't want to show it):
<?php wp_list_pages('exclude=12&title_li=' ); ?>
Dynamic Subpage Menu
Put this in your sidebar.php and it will output a subpage menu if there are subpages of the current page:
$children = wp_list_pages('title_li=&child_of='.$post->ID.'&echo=0');
if ($children) { ?>
<?php echo $children; ?>
<?php } ?>
Page Template
If you are using WordPress as a basic webpage management, you better don't miss out the Page Template feature. It allows you to customize how the Pages should be displayed. To use Page Template, first you need to create a Page Template, then you can assign the Page to specific template.
Here is how the Page Template structured (ie. portfolio.php):
Template Name: Portfolio
<?php get_header(); ?>
//the loop here
<?php get_footer(); ?>
When you are writing or editing a page, look on the right tab "Page Template" and you should see the available templates.
WordPress Options
There are many built-in options in the Admin panels that can make your site much nicer. Here are some of them:
Custom Frontpage
By default, WordPress displays your blog posts on the frontpage. But if you want to have a static page (ie. welcome or splash page) instead, you can set that in Admin > Options > Reading.
Default WordPress uses
www.yoursite.com/?p=123 for your post URLs, which is not URL nor search engine friendly. You can change the Permalinks setting through Admin > Options > Permalinks. Personally, I like to set the Permalinks to:
Category prefix
Default WordPress category prefix is "category" (ie.
yoursite.com/category/cat-name/). By entering "article" in the Category base (Options > Permalinks), your category URLs will become:

Do you know if it would be possible to have a certain post or page show depending on which day of the week people are visiting the site. For instance if someone visited on a Tuesday the homepage would display a page that you have designated to show on Tuesdays then if someone came to the site on Wednesday the homepage would show a post or page that you have designated to show on Wednesday etc.

Arcade games usually have very short levels, simple controllers, iconic characters, and increasing levels of complexity. They are designed as short adrenaline-driven thrillers compared to most console games, which have more complex play and stronger storylines. One reason for this is that since the game is coin-operated, the player rents the game for as long as their game avatar survives on the field. Any game on a console or a PC can be referred to as 'arcade game' if it has these attributes.
Dynamic Subpage Menu is completely new to me. Thanks for sharing

U.S. Department of Justice representatives will visit California this month as part of an ongoing investigation into whether the state's courts are violating federal laws for failing to provide interpreters in many civil and family law cases.
The investigation stems from a December 2010 complaint filed by the Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles on behalf of two litigants who were not provided with Korean interpreters for their court hearings. The complaint alleges that in failing to provide the interpreters, the courts violated Title VI of the federal Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits national origin discrimination.
These cases "are just two examples of many LAFLA (Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles) clients who have been denied access to the courts based on their limited-English proficiency," according to the complaint.
One of the Southern California litigants described in the complaint is a then-72-year-old woman on a fixed income who filed for a restraining order against an apartment maintenance worker she said groped her and exposed himself to her.
In October 2010, she went to the Los Angeles County Superior Court and filed a written request asking it to waive the fees for an interpreter but was denied because there "is no right to an interpreter provided at public expense in a civil case," according to the complaint.
She and the other Southern California litigant described in the complaint – a single mother seeking child support through the Los Angeles court – eventually sought help from the Legal Aid Foundation. The foundation paid for their interpreters at a cost of $300 in each case, and "based on that, they were able to complete their cases favorably," said Joann Lee, the attorney who filed the complaint.
"But not everybody gets help from us," Lee said. "There are a lot of people struggling through the court process because they are not getting interpreters."
California courts routinely provide interpreters in criminal, juvenile dependency and family law cases in which domestic violence-related restraining orders are requested. But failing to make interpreters available in all cases could be in conflict with federal guidance.
According to a 2010 Department of Justice letter [PDF] to all state chief justices and court administrators, courts that receivefederal funding – including the Los Angeles court – must provide free interpreters in all court proceedings to avoid violating civil rights laws.
Mary Hearn, spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County Superior Court, said in an email that the court "has followed California law with regard to providing language services and does so with highly trained, certified professional interpreters."
The Los Angeles court spends more than $30 million each year to provide interpreters in 25 languages, Hearn said.
The California Administrative Office of the Courts declined to discuss the Department of Justice inquiry, but spokesman Cathal Conneely said language access is a priority for the state courts.
"Equal access to justice and to the courts for all, regardless of an individual's ability to communicate in English, is a fundamental goal of the California judicial system," he wrote in an email.
He said the California constitution and subsequent case law have been interpreted to mandate interpreters for proceedings related to criminal, misdemeanor and delinquency matters, as well as some family law cases involving a restraining order.
But some legal scholars said California is out of compliance with federal statutes – and national trends.
The Department of Justice has "made it very clear" that the Civil Rights Act requires state courts that receive federal funds to provide interpreters in all types of cases, said Laura Abel, deputy director of the National Center for Access to Justice at Cardozo Law School in New York. "State courts around the country have been moving toward expanding court interpreter services to cover all civil cases, and California just hasn't moved that way," she said.
The Department of Justice did not respond to questions about the California court investigation.
There are at least 27 states with written mandates requiring courts to provide interpreters in all civil cases, Abel said.
This year, the American Bar Association issued new standards calling for expanded access to court interpreters as a "fundamental principle of law, fairness and access to justice, and to promote the integrity and accuracy of judicial proceedings."
Judge Erica Yew of the Santa Clara County Superior Court was on the bar association subcommittee that drafted the new standards.
"It's really a travesty when people leave the courtroom not understanding what was said and what happened in their case," Yew said. "Interpreters always make things better because there's clearer communication."
Yew said that in Santa Clara County, she is able to request interpreters in civil cases on an as-needed basis. Family members, friends and lawyers also have served as interpreters for some monolingual litigants in her courtroom, though she does not think that is ideal.
"California is unique because there are so many languages spoken here compared to other parts of the country," she said. "Everyone I have spoken to (about this) universally has seen that we should have interpreters. They recognize that language access is key to having justice in California courts."
"The obstacle is, unfortunately, funding," Yew added. "The will is there, but like many other areas, there needs to be adequate funding to provide the services."
In California, a 2006 bill that required the courts to provide and pay for interpreters in all civil cases passed the Legislature but was vetoed by then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger due to its potential fiscal impact.
In the 2008-09 fiscal year, California spent $93.7 million on court interpretation services. The California courts budget has been cut by nearly $1.2 billion since 2009.
State courts frequently cite funding as a barrier to expanding interpreter access, but in its 2010 letter to state court administrators, the Department of Justice stated that fiscal pressures "do not provide an exemption from civil rights requirements."
California is not the only state to receive Department of Justice scrutiny. The agency also has recently investigated interpreter access in Colorado, North Carolina and Rhode Island.
Rhode Island is taking steps toward expanding language access in its courts, and Colorado now offers interpreters to all litigants, regardless of the reason they come to court. The Department of Justice sent North Carolina courts a warning letter earlier this year stating that it was at risk of losing federal funding; negotiations are ongoing.
According to a CSU Sacramento study [PDF] commissioned by the Administrative Office of the Courts, more than 200 languages are spoken in California, and an estimated 6.7 million residents speak or understand English "less than very well."

Surely, a website promoting an mobile device will widely differ from the one which is used to promote a film or for example a book. There are various tools available in the market and the designer can have the liberty to using them in accordance to the need. Let us discuss a few of them.
Responsive Web Design Frameworks
Tiny Fluid Grid
This is used to create the fluid grid based websites. The best part of Fluid grid websites is that you can really change the setup of the website in accordance to the size of the screen. This is the most modern and the most popular form of website that is used nowadays.
Seamless Responsive Photo Grid
This is another highly popular tool that is used when you need to paste a number of photos on your website. Generally, this particular tool is needed to develop websites promoting cameras and camera lens. Various tourism related websites, where you need to paste a number of photos are prepared with the help of this particular tool as well.
Less Framework 4
This is again a tool that is needed to develop various adaptive websites which can automatically adjust itself in accordance to the screen. It has four layouts and three sets of letters' or fonts' presets constructed on single grid.
Mobile Boilerplate
As the name itself suggests, this particular tool is used to developed various applications used mainly in mobile phones – be it screensavers, wallpapers or screen themes. The latest smart phones, high resolution blackberry sets and various other latest mobile phones look really attractive and glossy mainly due to the usage of this particular tool.
Golden Grid System
This particular tool is used to set and size various columns and gutters of the website and their width. With each passing day, more & more highly developed tools are being launched to develop more and more user friendly and interactive websites. The constant development of these tools will only make the virtual world more exiting in the days ahead!
The 1140px CSS Grid System
The 1140 grid fits perfectly into a 1280 monitor. On smaller monitors it becomes fluid and adapts to the width of the browser. Beyond a certain point it uses media queries to serve up a mobile version, which essentially stacks all the columns on top of each other so the flow of information still makes sense. Scrap 1024! Design once at 1140 for 1280, and with very little extra work, it will adapt itself to work on just about any monitor, even mobile.

Got a splinter? If you've also got an egg, problem solved! How-to illustrator Yumi Sakugawa discovered that splinters come out a bit easier with the help of a small bit of eggshell.
How does it work? Just take a bit of egg shell (perhaps consider making some eggs, too, so you don't waste an entire egg on this tip) and place it on your finger for a few minutes. It will stick to the splinter and then you can pull it out slowly by removing the eggshell.
If eggs aren't your thing, check out Yumi's info-comic for several more solutions.

As this is written Monday morning, it is obvious that most of Henry County has had a good frost. Frost has some rather dangerous implications in the forage world, allowing cyanide producing compounds in living plant cells to be converted to prussic acid when the cells are crushed and ruptured because of the frost. We are indeed fortunate here, since most of the plant species we grow (fescue, orchard grass, timothy, red and white clover, and alfalfa) are not known to be prussic acid producers. However, most plants in the sorghum family are, including sudangrass and johnso

Pozdrav brate,It is really a difficult decision for me. It is going to have significant effects on the rest of my life. I pray God will guide me to His will and choice. I cannot find a good job even now. Maybe things will change for the better if I get rid of Islam officially. Time will tell. I must pray harder and seek God's guidance in my dreams. Thanks for your voting and opinion. God bless!
Do you have the ability to relocate to somewhere that has more opportunities in your field of expertise?
Theophilos,You are in such a tough predicament, one that few of us will ever experience, and therefore we are not qualified to give you an answer.Besides, it is such an important move...which might have huge repercussions on your life...and we don't want the responsibility of making your life even harder than it must already be.I read your post yesterday, and hesitated in replying for all the above reasons.However, since you ask again....my thoughts would be to rid yourself of Islam in all its forms. Yes, your life might be impacted for this move. You may not be able to find good employment, etc. Put your trust in the Lord and He will see you through it all.This week I received a letter from the Ecumenical Patriarchate in response to an email I had sent asking how we could help the remaining Christian families who are persecuted in Turkey. I had written on behalf of my church's youth organization in hopes of finding a way for the kids to get involved. While no "physical" action was requested, the letter was nonetheless moving and instructive. You might find the words meaningful. God bless you and help you always, no matter what you chose to do.In response to your inquiry as to how you may help the Orthodox Community in Turkey, you are invited to pray persistently for the "stability of the holy churches of God." Continue to live in a manner worthy of emulation, as St. Peter says in his Epistle, "Live such good lives among the unfaithful that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day He visits us." Therefore, as beloved spiritual children of the Mother Church of Constantinople, you are called to serve as ambassadors of the Gospel, of love and peace in our world. Love is the driving force of our Orthodox witness and essential for our Salvation. "This is my commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you...pray for those who persecute you!" With these words of our Lord in mind, bear witness to the salvific message of our Faith by continuing your charitable acts and philanthropic endeavors, as well as by living faithfully, so that through your example, you may convert not only your own hearts, but the hearts of those who persecute you. (Archimandrite Elpidophoros Lambriniadis - Chief Secretary)
I feel unqualified to offer any advice. I am not facing the difficulties and persecution that you are, and as Pink Floyd once sang:"Forward he cried from the rearAnd the front rank died"It would be one thing if you and I were living in the same city, and knew that both of us would have repercussions from our actions by the civil authorities. But, for me to suggest that you should do something that would cause you to suffer while I stay in my own semi-comfortable surroundings does not sit well with me. I am called to share your burden, not to observe your suffering from a distance and be grateful I am not there by your side.So I don't feel that I can tell you anything other than:-Pray and seek to discern the Lord's will on this; and-Know that you are in my unworthy prayers, and I'm sure in other's prayers as well.
Pozdrav Again...The dream thing mentioned above kind of Bothers me.......If you must get Inspiration get it from Holy Scripture and Holy Fathers writings....In The Holy Scriptures that mention dreams ,they were Interpreted by someone else ,Not the dreamer...Though St .Joseph was told clearly in a dream By A Angel to wake up and take Holy Mary And the Infant Child Jesus and flee to Egypt.....So Be carefull Following Advice From dreams....

Pothos 'N' Joy
Piep's story began with a friendship. Which is the best way for all stories to begin, don't you think? A lovely lady named Lisa texted her old friends, Leland and Mackenna, and asked if we knew where to find a Pilea Peperomioides, the quite aptly nicknamed Friendship Plant. Turns out, they were a bit tough to find. Which gave us a crazy idea: we love plants, we always have about a dozen or more random leaves propagating in miscellaneous containers, and we're pretty hard working—that's all you need to start a plant business, right?! Well that and a bunch of boring certificates and licenses…
Thus began a very wild, wonderful, plant-filled year. A year of trying all kinds of different propagation methods (ever heard of indirect somatic embryogenesis?), building our own greenhouse, learning more than we thought possible about fertilizer and sunlight and water, and having our first baby (human, not Pilea), all while managing our other business. Along the way, we fell in love with an amazing array of other houseplants, custom pots, gorgeous art, and a bunch of other fun stuff we decided we just had to sell as well. So here we are. A year and a bit later, finally ready to text Lisa again and proudly say, you can find the Friendship Plant here at PIEP (and of course, as the one who got us started on this path, she gets a lifetime supply for free).

Bolt status at Lakeside Pinnacle

Bolt status at Lakeside Pinnacle
A few months ago we ventured off to Lakeside Pinnacle, but many of the bolts have been chopped for some reason. Does anyone know the current status of the crag?
Sadly, Lakeside is a crag in crisis. Conflicting ethics, hidious abuse and short-sightedness on the part of some pchyco-lunatic have led to this crag being chopped, hacked, re-bolted, sabotaged, littered, shat under and scribbled on. It used to be a really beautiful place, but now the vibes there are so bad I don't know why anyone bothers to go there.
Many of you who have climbed at Lakeside pinnacle in the past will be aware that over the years, vandals have been waging a battle to destroy the routes there, often causing much damage to the rock as well as the bolts and hangers. This is hazardous to the safety of climbers, making whoever is doing this criminally potentially liable for any injuries incurred as a result of their destruction. From time to time, someone comes along and re-equips the crag, which is then vandalised again. Charles Howell, and the climbers of SACS Junior, have recently not only re-bolted most of the existing routes, but have added another three on the right of the wall, which were formerly only toprope lines (from left to right: Asterix 15, Getafix 16, Obelix 16). Permission for this bolting was first requested from the Sport Climbing Working Group, a procedure that has been in place since the TM National Park signed the Management Plan for sport climbing in the Park some years ago. This arrangement is being administered by the Working Group, through the MCSA, for the benefit of all people who climb in the Cape. Anyone who wishes to bolt must please follow this protocol, if in doubt, contact the MCSA for the names of the people to whom you should speak. We can only hope that the Lakeside Pinnacle crag remains unmolested, as it's an exellent beginner's venue, with some great lines that are accessible with only a short walk-in. Climbers are asked to be vigilant when climbing there, and take note of any suspicious-looking people who may be loitering in the area. Remember, damage to a crag is an offence punishable by law; the Park views this sort of thing in a very serious light. Along that line, it has been noticed that somebody has written the names of some of the routes (and grade) on the rock below the first bolts. Not only should this practice be discouraged (this is NOT France!) but it is strictly forbidden. In addition, in at least one case the name and grade of the route was incorrect! Many thanks to Charles and the SACS boys for putting in the exellent work. I must just mention that Dave Hart helped with this refurbishment. Thanks guys.
I would like to canvass opinion about bolting the Lakeside "Crack of Dawn". I have mixed feelings about this and cannot make up my mind. On the one hand, it has always been climbed as a trad route. On the other hand, does it make sense to have a ten metre high trad route on a sport crag? What do other climbers think? Should it be bolted or left alone?
My feeling is that the area is mainly a sport crag for entry level climbers, so bolting the Crack will add another route to the list. Its not as if it is a 'classic' which you are ruining, and to be honest I've never seen anyone climb it, mainly because the climbers at the crag are beginners and getting trad gear out is a mission for them. Having said all of this, I have never climbed the route, and it may well be done regularly?? I guess the ethical call would be to speak to whoever 'discovered' the crag??
Ahh, the ongoing bolting issue. Given that this is a sensitive issue, I would certainly leave the route alone. However it is as you said a crag for beginners and the more routes the better. So why not put some anchors at the top so new clibers can top rope it, and it retains its condition for tradding. Even so, best find the person who opened the route/area for their input. Shot for re-bolting the existing routes, hopefully they stay untouched now.
Thanks for the positive feedback, but I must mention that the retrobolting wasn't done by me alone. Dave Hart played a big role. As I had never bolted nbefore, I couldn't have done it alone. There are 5 new lines: Moaning Minnie (17ish) left of the Crack of Dawn Dogmatix (16) Diagonal traverse next to \"Who Knows\" Asterix (14), Obelix (16) and Getafix (17) on the right of the Pinnacle. Charles Howell
I agree that 'Crack of Dawn' needs top anchors, but I would suggest that, as a beginners' venue, that crack provides an ideal beginner's trad lead. It's just so perfect for tradding, it seems a pity to bolt it. Beginners could always toprope it before leading as well. Lastly, thanks aain to those involved in rescueing this cool little crag.
When we (UCTMSC) first retrobolted a few lines at Lakeside (the Undercling Route and one or two routes to the left of the pillar - I forget now, that was in 1992) we deliberately left out Crack of Dawn for exactly the reasons given above: it's an excellent beginners' trad lead. Times have changed a bit since then, but not that much - if people still use this route to train trad-beginners, then just put bolt-anchors at the top, so that everybody is happy.
I must voice my strongest possible objections to any suggestion of bolting such a perfect crack. This idea should not even enter your heads!!!! There are to many bolted lines in the Cape Town area that should have been left as either trad or toprope problems already. A noteable example being Wards Walkup at Peers cave. Give it a rest guys there are lank other worthwhile lines that could be bolted without obliterating every last trace of our trad forefathers. May I suggest that you all start saving for that trad rack and wean yourselves off your bolt addiction!

A new U.S. Department of Agriculture research facility was dedicated in Maricopa, Ariz., recently, beginning a new era of research for scientists who are developing environmentally friendly agricultural practices for arid climates.
The U.S. Arid-Land Agricultural Research Center (USALARC) boasts a state-of-the-art data communications system and top-of-the-line analytical and research equipment. The $27 million facility covers 100,000 square feet and will support 26 permanent researchers, two visiting scientists, several postdoctoral scientists and about 80 support personnel. USALARC is part of USDA's Agricultural Research Service.
"Scientists will focus on understanding the complex relationships between cropping systems, water management and the environment," said ARS Administrator Edward B. Knipling. "The resulting knowledge will provide a foundation for efficient and environmentally friendly agriculture in arid climates."
The new facility combines in one consolidated, multidisciplinary research center the U.S. Water Conservation Research Laboratory and Western Cotton Research Laboratory -- two ARS research facilities formerly located in Phoenix. Researchers at the U.S. Water Conservation Laboratory developed improved methods for crop irrigation. Scientists at the ARS Western Cotton Research Laboratory developed integrated management techniques to improve cotton production and control pests like the whitefly and the pink bollworm.
At USALARC the researchers will be organized into three units: Water Management and Conservation, Pest Management and Biocontrol, and Plant Physiology and Genetics. The center is under the direction of Thomas Henneberry, former research leader of the Western Cotton Research Laboratory.

Ok lovelies, you know I don't bake. Well today, I figured Id give it a whirl. Only burned two trays, so I'm considering it a success!
My grandma used to make these when I was little, and I never really appreciated them. Probably because she used to put walnuts in them, and I didn't (and still don't) like nuts in my cookies. So I substituted the walnuts with chocolate chips and they are amazing.
2 Ripe Bananas
1 Cup Soft Butter
1 Cup Sugar
2 Cups Flour
1 tsp Cinnamon
1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
2 Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 tsp Salt
1 Cup Peanut Butter Chips
1 Cup Raisins
1 Cup Chopped Walnuts or Chocolate Chips- your choice
Preheat oven to 350. Put bananas into a blender until smooth. In a large bowl combine butter, sugar and brown sugar. Add in bananas, eggs, and vanilla. In a small bowl combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add the two mixtures together. Stir in peanut butter chips, raisins, and either chocolate chips or walnuts. Drop by teaspoonfuls two inches apart onto greased cookie sheet. Bake for 9 minutes or until golden brown.
They seriously taste like banana bread cookies. The hubs even liked them, and he hates raisins- so these are a winner at our house!

Henry Lee-Thomas: More Information
http://www.awm.gov.au (war memorial)
http://www.cwgc.org/ (grave information)
I have sent an e-mail to the Australian War Memorial to see if they would like copies of the photo albums. Amazing where this Family History journey takes you.
P.S. One of my daughters asked me when I was going to post more of the tape recorded history of Maurice Lee-Thomas. That which I have posted is all there is to that recording. Sad, isn't it? So now let's all get busy on keeping a journal or some record of our lives.
2 comments:
On one of the photos during WW1 there is a photo of a man with a wounded man on a Donkey.
It is possible this man with the Donkey was Simpson and is known through out Australia as Simpson and his donkey (you can google him). His story has for years been told at school.
Unfortunately he did not survive ,being killed about a month after commencing his work. There is even a statue of him.

Do you know why his mother is listed as Sarah Ann Lever but on the birth of Thomas Henry Lee in Victoria his parents are listed as John Lee and Sarah Ann Tysor (which is the maiden name). (Spellings vary back then).
On their marriage they are listed as John Lee and Sarah Ann Tysoe. Also Maurice also states her name as Tysoe in his recording. His siblings births are also listed as John Lee and Sarah Ann Tysoe. Unless her father died early and the mother remarried a Lever and the children took the step fathers name, as often happened back then. Would be the correct family as Henry had a brother Maurice and as this name is not so common it seems to point to the correct family.
As Henry on his army records as a bricklayer was he working for the Thredgolds, as I have found an article in a South Australian newspaper stating that Charles Thredgold - George Thredgold's father was a bootmaker and a brickmaker when he arrived on the Duchess of Northumberland and that all of Charles' children were involved in the brickmaking business at one time or another. The eldest son Thomas was still working at the business in 1926 at age 74 when the article was written. George Thredgold was in 1926 involved in the building business and was employed as a mason at Strathalbyn. In the article in 1926 all 8 surviving brothers met up together for the first time in about 50 years.
In a letter Ruby wrote in 1944 she mentions Maurice:
"My son Maurice is here , works in the railroad, he has recently been blessed with a daughter, married 11 years and this is the first child. They are sure happy"
My grandmother after my grandfathers death, then my mother kept several of Ruby's letters (not all complete some pages are missing) but in her letters she was very informative as to when people died and from what of which helped me with my research.
Thanks again for the information.

Open House Marbella Nueva Andalucia 13 November
Conducting an OPEN HOUSE can certainly be considered as one of the nicest and most direct ways of presenting an exclusive property to the right contacts. These events usually tick a lot of boxes as they give you ample time and possibilities to show and discuss a property from all angles and in every detail in a relaxed atmosphere at that. This way, it is easy to imagine living inside, see small details you would have missed otherwise, enabling you to describe the property to prospective buyers in a perfect way. Going exclusive with Engel&Völkers means that special bespoke efforts are taken when it comes to advertising the property, approaching select groups of professionals who are then able to absorb good qualities of the property to enhance their selling point. At the same time, the exclusivity of a property is maintained.
On this special occasion, a group of around 40 persons from renowned competitors in the real estate sector with different market shares and specializing on a variety of nationalities attended the event and we take this opportunity to say thanks again to everybody who came to see and get acquainted with all the beautiful details of the villa.
The residential high-end area of Marbella called La Cerquilla is well-known for its tranquility, privacy and closeness to the best golf-courses Aloha Golf, Las Brisas Golf, Los Naranjos Golf on the Coast near Puerto Banus. Talking about Puerto Banús is talking about luxury, sports, glamor and culture. The unique climate in Europe, thanks to the Mediterranean sea and the La Concha mountain, allows the exercise of water sports and the enjoyment of large luxury yachts arriving in the port throughout the year. Enjoy the captivating and stylish backdrop of the marina, the luxury boutiques and gourmet restaurants and bars! This residential area is ideally situated at only 45 minutes from Málaga or Gibraltar airport. And for a visit to Marbella and its lovely old town with cozy tapas places or good restaurants it will only take you 10 minutes by car, or you can take the Catamaran that connects Puerto Banús and Marbella´s marina, enjoying the views to the Coast.
