Plenty of folks would shy away from coaxing even just one recipe out of their favorite restaurant chef, but Chicago food writer Amelia Levin collected 59 such recipes for her first cookbook, Chicago Chef's Table (Lyon's Press, 2012).
"I started by reaching out to as many chefs as I could, assuming that not everyone would be able or would want to contribute. But actually, most did," Levin explained.
In her kitchen in Chicago, the Highland Park native edited each recipe, ensuring the order of ingredients matched the instructions. In some cases, measurements had to be changed. "Restaurants use a lot more oil than we do at home," she said.
Then, contributing chefs helped her test recipes according to the edits. Her project, which started in August 2010, took six months to complete. The book was released this April.
Levin said she was particularly drawn to restaurants "with strong chef personalities," evidenced by star-studded entries from chefs like Top Chef Stephanie Izard.
The Evanston-born chef submitted her recipe for Mussels with Mighty Goat Sausage, Cilantro Butter and Bagna Cauda Aioli. The recipe even explains how to make goat sausage. "We wanted to do something with goat because, well, we love goat," Izard said. "I love putting fish and meat together. The mussels are great on their own, but the addition of goat sausage just makes them a little different."
As Levin's cookbook title hints, most of the recipes are from Chicago chefs. But suburban restaurants are also represented, including Michelin-starred Vie in Western Springs, Convito Café in Wilmette and Prairie Grass Café in Northbrook.
"Horseradish and beef are a natural together," said Sarah Stegner, Prairie Grass Café co-chef and co-owner. "I like to serve a spicy whipped cream with Dijon mustard with asparagus."
Stegner buys asparagus from Mick Klug Farm in St. Joseph, Mich. (www.MickKlugFarm.com). "He picks them at the perfect time and they are tender and the flavor is incredible," she said.
Buy only fresh
By the "right" time, Stegner means when asparagus stalks are crisp, not limp. She warned against buying stalks with tips broken off, and suggested choosing larger stalks. "To me, they are extra juicy," she said.
Convito Café in Wilmette was a natural inclusion in Levin's cookbook. She worked in the restaurant's market as a teen.
Convito Café partner and general manager Candace Barocci-Warner submitted the restaurant's recipe for Country Cannelloni, a mainstay there. "It was an easy choice," Barocci-Warner said. "It's one of our original recipes, and it's not too complicated for the home cook to make."
Levin, who continues freelancing as a food reporter, (she has developed and tested recipes for Oxmoor House's Cooking Light cookbooks and the American Heart Association) is considering collaborating with a Chicago chef for her next cookbook. Who will the chef be? To find out, you may have to beg.
For updates about events related to Chicago Chef's Table, including an upcoming Kitchen Chat podcast featuring Levin at 7 p.m. on June 11 at the Barrington Area Library, visit: www.

(Please refer to agenda item 10 for details on why this item was withdrawn from the meeting). |
Public Questions To consider questions from members of the public in accordance with the 'Protocol for Public Questions at Cabinet Meetings'. For guidance on how to submit questions, please refer to the council's website www.fdean.gov.uk. Alternatively, please contact Democratic Services on 01594 812625 or email email@example.com. All questions must be submitted in writing at least two working days prior to the meeting. Minutes: The following question was submitted to the Leader of the Council by Dr Daphne Pearson: - Has Cabinet given any thought to organising or facilitating local celebrations for HM the Queen's Diamond Jubilee and if so, what are their conclusions? Leader of the Council, Councillor Patrick Molyneux, gave the following response at the meeting 2012 will indeed be a busy and exciting year, with the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, the Olympics and, more specifically, the Olympic Torch Relay, all occurring during the summer, with the District Council fully involved in the planning and facilitation of all of these events. As far as the Diamond Jubilee is concerned, we have been in touch with the Pageantmaster for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Beacons to share our thinking. Although, we will not be lighting a Beacon ourselves, we are working closely with Town and Parish Councils to promote the event and provide advice. For example, we have passed on information on organising street parties and we have provided licensing advice. To simplify matters, the County Council has agreed to deal with all road closure applications and waive the normal fees. Members of our Community Engagement Team are currently promoting the event with our Town and Parish Councils and have asked them to register with the Pageantmaster if they wish to take part. The feedback we have had, to date, suggests that Town and Parish Councils will focus on the event now that the Christmas and New Year festivities are over. That said, we understand that bonfire beacons are being planned in Alvington and Newent. I urge all of our Town and Parish Councils to consider adding to that list. In reply, Dr Pearson said that the council appeared to be doing nothing towards the Jubilee celebrations and what a missed opportunity this would be. Emphasising the uniqueness of the occasion and conscious of the unlikely probability that anyone living today would be able to participate in a Diamond Jubilee celebration in the future, Dr Pearson said that it might be appropriate to commemorate the anniversary with a wooden sculpture or a similar feature from which to depict the occasion. She also suggested that the council involve the local community in considering what might be an appropriate activity. The Leader assured Dr Pearson that it was the council's intention to mark this important occasion. At this stage, however, the council had not committed to any firm plans. He said that he would note Dr Pearson's comments and that the council would be exploring different avenues to consider what options might be available. He informed Dr Pearson that a similar proposal would be considered at the full council meeting on 23 February 2012, following consideration of a motion from Councillor Jane Horne. |
Member Questions Leader of the Council, Councillor Patrick Molyneux, to invite non-executive members of the council to refer questions to cabinet. (A maximum of 15 minutes will be allocated to each meeting for consideration of member questions). Each question must relate to an item on the agenda and avoid confidential, personal or any other information where the law requires the council to consider the matter in private. To assist in providing a complete answer, members are requested to submit questions to Democratic Services at least two working days before the meeting, either by email or in writing. Questions will be considered in the order of the agenda and at the discretion of the Leader of the Council. Minutes: At the cabinet meeting on 7 July 2011, Leader of the Council, Councillor Patrick Molyneux, invited members of the council to submit any questions on or before the Monday afternoon prior to each cabinet meeting. The Leader said that no questions had been submitted prior to the meeting, but that he intended to consider questions relating to items of interest, as and when such items appeared on the agenda. Seeking clarification on the council's intention to lease part of the council offices to third party organisations, Councillor Bill Evans enquired what proposals had been considered in relation to parking arrangements for other users. Councillor Brian Robinson, Cabinet Member for an Efficient Council and Planning Policy, said that the provision to lease office space to third party organisations included an element of parking. He said that use of the designated parking space, (including whether or not parking fees would be applied), was not a decision for the council to consider, but a decision for each leaseholder. Leader of the Council, Councillor Patrick Molyneux, noted Councillor Evans' concerns and said that he would take on board his comments. |
Recommendations from the Scrutiny Bus Links Inquiry PDF 116 KB To consider report LD.387, detailing recommendations from the Strategic Overview and Scrutiny Committee following the recent bus links inquiry. Councillor Martin Quaile, Cabinet Member for the Environment, (including transport issues), to respond to the recommendations. Additional documents: Minutes: At the Overview and Scrutiny Committee meeting on 21 July 2011, the committee agreed that the Environment Scrutiny Panel, (aided by the Community Scrutiny Panel), should undertake a scrutiny inquiry of the public bus service provision, currently operating in the Forest of Dean. Leader of the Council, Councillor Patrick Molyneux, invited Vice Chairman for the Inquiry, Councillor Ian Whitburn, to outline the recommendations from the inquiry. He also asked Councillor Whitburn to give an update on the outcome of the committee decision from the Overview and Scrutiny Committee meeting on 12 January 2012, in response to the recommendations. Councillor Whitburn referred to Annex A of report LD.387, (detailing the final recommendations from the scrutiny inquiry), and informed members that at the Overview and Scrutiny Committee meeting on 12 January 2012 the committee had made one amendment to the proposals, amending recommendation b to read: - 'That the Leader of the Council write to the Leader of Gloucestershire County Council, the Leader of Monmouthshire County Council, the relevant minister of the Welsh Assembly and, of the government in Westminster, urging them to improve the integration of transport provision throughout the district and cross-border (as amended)'. Councillor Whitburn emphasised the importance of appointing a Transport Member Champion, as detailed in Annex A to report LD.387. He said that the scrutiny panel had considered this a key recommendation and pivotal to addressing some of the transport issues affecting the Forest of Dean. In response to a variety of wide-ranging questions, Councillor Whitburn made the following points of clarification: - (a) In response to point 7 of the role of the Transport Champion, Councillor Whitburn said that the panel hoped ward members and parish councillors would be encouraged to communicate any transport issues to the council's Community Engagement Team. (b) Seeking clarification on whether recommendation f) of the proposals should refer to the District Council and not the County Council, (in proactively supporting local transport needs by providing details of community transport), Councillor Whitburn informed members that the recommendation had been aligned at county level to incorporate any journeys to hospitals located outside of the district. (c) The four local community transport providers referred to in 2.2 of the final scrutiny report, (Annex A), included both Lydney and Newent Dial-a-Ride. (d) Responding to concerns from Councillor Lynn Sterry, regarding the poor condition of some of the buses servicing the Forest of Dean, (particularly when making comparisons to the superior vehicles servicing Gloucester City), Councillor Whitburn said that, unfortunately the allocation of vehicles was not a decision that this council could easily influence. Later in the meeting, it was suggested that the appointment of a member champion might be able to address some of the issues relating to the reliability and quality of public bus services in the district. Considering each of the recommendations at Annex A in turn, Councillor Martin Quaile, Cabinet Member for Environment, (with responsibility for issues relating to transport included in his portfolio), said that, although there was no problem in ... view the full minutes text for item 8. |
Armed Forces Community Covenant for Gloucestershire PDF 101 KB To confirm the council's commitment to the Gloucestershire Armed Forces Community Covenant. Leader of the Council, Councillor Patrick Molyneux, to present report SD.84. Additional documents: Minutes: Leader of the Council, Councillor Patrick Molyneux, presented report SD.84, seeking cabinet approval for the Forest of Dean District Council to become a signatory for the proposed Gloucestershire Armed Forces Community Covenant. The Leader said that this was a fantastic opportunity for the council to work together in partnership with the armed forces and to demonstrate how much the council respected and welcomed their involvement in the community. The Leader said that he was very happy to commit to this agreement, a sentiment shared by other cabinet members. Councillor Brian Robinson, Cabinet Member for an Efficient Council and Planning Policy suggested the covenant consider an initiative linked to the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Celebrations as one of its first initiatives. Councillor Marrilyn Smart OBE emphasised how important, and in what high esteem, the armed forces were held by this council. She said that the report was an excellent report and that she had been delighted with the references to the important relationship between the council and 1 Rifles. Councillor Smart informed members that she intended to submit a motion relating to this item at the council meeting on 23 February 2012 and hoped that she would receive the full support of members. Seeking clarification on issues relating to the Community Covenant Grant Scheme, Councillor Bill Evans was advised that it would be up to the council to seek whatever funding was available. Strategic Director, Peter Hibberd, said that, from a non-financial perspective, he believed it was equally important for the council to contribute something to the community by forging bonds with the armed forces. He said that the signing ceremony for the agreement would take place on 27 February 2012. Cabinet noted the report and, RESOLVED to support the Armed Forces Community Covenant for Gloucestershire |
Countdown to Low Carbon Homes PDF 141 KB To consider entering a low carbon homes scheme in partnership with the Severn Wye Energy Agency. Councillor Terry Hale, Cabinet Member for the Community, to present report PH.101. Minutes: Councillor Terry Hale, Cabinet Member for the Community, informed members that report PH.101 had been withdrawn from the meeting. He said that, following publication of the agenda and to assist cabinet members in making their decision, he had invited Catrin Maby, from the Severn and Wye Energy Agency, to give a presentation at an all member event in the Council Chamber at 6 pm on Monday 30 January 2012. With the Leader's consent, Councillor Hale deferred consideration of report PH.101 until the cabinet meeting on 9 February 2012. He said he hoped this would enable members to consider the report in more detail and to ask questions at the presentation on 30 January 2012. Councillor Hale apologised for the deferral and urged members to take advantage of this useful opportunity. |
Cinderford Northern Quarter Spine Road - Delivery Mechanism PDF 1 MB Leader of the Council, Councillor Patrick Molyneux, to present report EDP.45, seeking to secure Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) funding in support of the Cinderford Regeneration Programme. Minutes: Leader of the Council, Councillor Patrick Molyneux, presented report EDP.45, detailing proposals relating to the construction and financial arrangements for delivery of the Cinderford Northern Quarter Spine Road. The spine road will open up the Steam Mills Site in Cinderford and play a vital role in providing access to new developments as part of the Cinderford Regeneration Programme. The Leader informed members that, subject to minor changes, the principle of the report remained unchanged. Regeneration Manager, Wendy Jackson confirmed that she and the Solicitor to the Council, Marie Rosenthal had attended a meeting with Gloucestershire County Council and the Homes and Communities Agency at Shire Hall on Tuesday 17 January 2012 to discuss the legal framework from which the council would support the successful delivery of the Cinderford Northern Quarter Spine Road. She said that, following several key outcomes from this meeting, it was necessary to make changes to recommendation a) of report EDP. 45. One of the outcomes had been that this council, in partnership with Gloucestershire County Council, had agreed to share the financial role required to undertake the pre-development activity required ahead of the construction work. Furthermore, Gloucestershire County Council had agreed to procure all construction work. The Regeneration Manager pointed out that the original report EDP.45 included a proposal for the Forest of Dean District Council to take on the entire financial role to lead on all pre-development activity and phase 1 works. Due to the revised agreement, it was necessary to amend recommendation a) to reflect the required change. The Regeneration Manager outlined the revised recommendation and said that the council's pre-development activity role included taking the lead on land acquisition. It also included the appointment of an urban design specialist to monitor the quality of the emerging highway design and a cost controller to validate all qualifying expenditure associated with the delivery of the new road. The county council's pre-development activity role involved appointing consultants to undertake highway design, planning application preparation and all ecological survey work needed to support an Environmental Impact Assessment. Councillor Brian Robinson, Cabinet Member for an Efficient Council and Planning Policy, informed members that the revised recommendation had not incurred any financial implications other than those included in the original report.

Is Today the End of the World—Again
Dec. 21 is not the first time the apocalypse was supposed to bring down the curtain on the world.
Many a prophet of doom has predicted the end of the world. The latest forecast is for Dec. 21, the day the Mayans foresaw the apocalypse, according to some armchair historians.
Before hunkering down in your cellar with non-perishable foods and a wind-up radio, take a look at all the other ends of the world that have come and gone. Also, take a look at where NASA weighs on the burning question.
Here are some past-due end dates the earth itself debunked by simply living past them.
Expired End of the World Days
1525: Doomsday Peasant Revolt
Anabaptist Thomas Muntzer apparently was a bit off on the "end of all ages," and his belief inspired him to lead an unsuccessful peasant's revolt, according to A Brief History of the Apacolypse's website. It reports he was tortured and executed. So, dance and have a hoopla on Dec. 21 if you must, but don't rile the peasants.
1694: New World Trip to Greet Jesus' Return
Woman in the Wilderness pilgrims set out from Germany to America in 1694 to welcome Jesus back to earth, according to the apocalypse history website. It says they made it to the New World. But the personal meeting, not so much.
1697: Witch-Hunter Sniffs Out The End of the World
Cotton Mather, a.k.a. notorious witch-hunter, said it would all be over in 1697, according to the apocalypse history website. Apparently Mather was as skilled at end time prophesy as he was at smelling out witches.
1806: Hen's Messages on Eggs Warn of the End
Claims broke out that a hen in Leeds, England was laying eggs that bore the written message "Christ is coming," according to Live Science's website. It states many were convinced this meant doomsday was close. Such eggspectations!
1910: Halley's Comet Would Gas Mankind Like Bugs
Fears arose that when the earth passed through the tail of Halley's Comet in 1910, the comet would douse everyone on the planet with deadly toxic gas, according to Live Science.
Newspaper headlines across America warned of danger. "Halley's Comet May Snuff Out Life on the Earth," read The Ogden Standard. "We may have a chance to feel the sensations of the bugs and insects which are killed by the use of this deadly gas as an exterminator."
Y2K: Death by Computers.
No they wouldn't look like Arnold Schwarzenegger, but many were convinced that computers would usher in the destruction of the world when 2000 AD hit because they would not be able to tell the difference between 2000 and 1900 dates. But the earth didn't buy it, promising, "I'll be back."
What do you think, is it finally the end after all or is it just a Mayan hen laying an egg this time? Tell us below—in our poll or comments.

Haha. Yes Jenni, although it was really iffy this morning at first... I had a serious hangnail. Scary.
1:03 pm on Friday, December 21, 2012
What about that guy that said the end of the world was coming last May and then changed it to October? (haven't heard much about him lately, by the way!!). If I gotta go, I'd rather go with the Mayans - MUCH cooler!
Bailey Henneberg
1:40 pm on Friday, December 21, 2012
Hahaha. Yeah, what about these date changers? I didn't put it in the story, but apparently there have been a bunch of Doomsday prophets who tried to change end dates when they botched their first ones.

don't worry the day will not come until the sun rises from the west.on that day everybody would believe that ISLAM is the true religion ,but the belief of that time will be useless and no repentance for sins will be accepted.
Patrick Urquidez
11:24 pm on Tuesday, January 1, 2013
That is your belief, and you are welcome to share your beliefs with everyone. I will respect your religious beliefs as long as you respect my Christian beliefs, but if you take offense at me because of my beliefs, then you insult both Islam and Christianity. God bless my friend.

Quake Live trailer is made of complete win
Oh. Our. Gods. The E3 Quake Live trailer – after the break – shows something so obviously amazing we can scarcely believe it. The fact this is completely free to play points at a game and concept that could be wildly successful. See for yourself. There should be plenty more on this from QuakeCon at the end of the month.
Thanks, RPS.

Five new Quake Live pics emerge
IGN has five new screenshots of id's free-to-play, ad-filled, online shooter, Quake Live.
Take a look.

Quake Live: You can't turn the ads off
Speaking to IGN, id's John Carmack has confirmed that you won't be able to switch the in-game ads off in upcoming free-to-play shooter, Quake Live.
"No, there's no current plan for that," he said. "Not to say it couldn't happen depending on how the market bears out on it. Actually, turning the ads off right now would make the whole thing look worse. They really are integrated in such a way that they're not obtrusive, you're not waiting for any of the ads. It's not like stuff on website where it's like 'watch this ad' or subscribe or whatever like that where you're actively frustrated with it."
We've been hearing very good things about the beta, so stay tuned. Ads or not.

Carmack confesses favourite id game, slams modern design
John Carmack's admitted that his favourite id Software game is Quake III Arena. You know what, John? Same with us.
The code legend gave up his personal shooter preference in a PCGamer interview about the upcoming free-to-play Quake Live, and also took the opportunity to stick a knife into completist "movie" gaming.
"Quake III Arena was always my personal favorite id Software game," he said. "It's such a pure activity kind of game – more of a sport than a movie. And I'm excited to have this opportunity to bring back the pure type of gaming as opposed to the 'everything and the kitchen sink' modern design. We have no pretensions about it being the best multiplayer game in all types of things, but for any player looking to test their [deathmatch] skill, I think Quake III Arena is the best there ever was."
Rare interview, that, so be sure to read it.

GDC: First shots of Quake Live released
Here. Quake Live was announced today as a free-to-play version of the id shooter, which will be funded by ads supplied by IGA. The game will apparently run in a browser, but that doesn't look too browser-friendly to us. We're sure we'll be proved wrong.
Wed, Feb 20, 2008 | 07:34 GMT
GDC: Free-to-play Quake Live announced, IGA gets ad deal
According to this, id is to release a free-to-play, browser version of Quake, supported by ads supplied by IGA.
Dubbed Quake Live, the game will offer friends lists and communication, stats tracking, matchmaking, sponsored events and tournaments.
"IGA understands game developers and game players which makes them the perfect partner for Quake Live," said Todd Hollenshead, id CEO. "Whether it's been the ease of implementing their SDK or just their excitement about Quake Live, they have been fantastic to work with."
Like, wow.

It's here that MMOs diverge from movies and other video games. With those, the original is not in any sort of danger, other than the perception of having its legacy dragged down into the muck (Caddyshack II, anyone?) and perhaps overstaying its welcome. An MMO sequel, on the other hand, can cause serious consequences to its ancestor.
Here at Game Archaeologist, we look at classic games that have often seen their time come and go. But what happens to one of these titles when a sequel attacks? Almost anything, it turns out.

Kaiser Permanente Doctor to Take Flu Questions on Twitter
The health care provider is opening a medical center in Arbutus this spring.
A Kaiser Permanente doctor will take questions about the flu from Twitter users in a Tuesday afternoon chat.
Dr. Susan Matcha, an infectious disease expert, will join Twitter users Tuesday at 12:30 p.m. on Kaiser Permanente's Twitter page and on the hashtag #kpmaschat.
Kaiser Permanente's South Baltimore County Medical Center will open in Arbutus this spring.
The number of flu reports in Maryland is the highest seen in several years. Earlier this month, one emergency room physician told Patch that Greater Baltimore Medical Center received the most flu reports it had seen since the H1N1 pandemic in 2009.
Nationally, 47 states report widespread flu activity, and hospitalizations are up compared with years past, according to the federal Centers for Disease Control. Twenty children have died of flu-related causes since October, according to the CDC.
9:36 am on Tuesday, January 15, 2013
The "danger" of the flu is a hoax perpetrated by Big Brother.
"Get a flu shot or you'll die!"
"Oops, this year's strain of the flu is different than the one vaccinated against."
Does anyone really know what's in those syringes?

Following its first full year of operation in 2012, Power4Patriots of Nashville, Tenn., today announced the expansion of its Power4Patriots manuals and videos.
Nashville, Tenn. (PRWEB) February 08, 2013
Power4Patriots of Nashville, Tenn., announced today that it has expanded its flagship product of manuals and videos describing how to build solar panels, wind turbines, water heaters and solar heaters.
The manual was expanded to 352 pages from 301 pages, with new information on saving money with energy efficiency tips and how to purchase pre-made solar panels at a discount. Additionally, 10 new "Frequently Asked Questions" videos totaling over 60 minutes of run time were added to the product with information on the top 5 benefits of generating your own off-grid power, the average cost of an off-grid system and more.
The company announced on Feb. 1, 2013, that it sold more than 150,000 units of its product in 2012, its first full year in operation. This achievement follows a report on Dec. 8, 2012, in the San Francisco Chronicle of the company passing 125,000 units sold.
Power4Patriots was created as a way to allow anyone to become independent of high power bills and outages. Cost-effective and uncomplicated, Power4Patriots teaches people how to build their own environmentally friendly sources of energy.
The Power4Patriots product is a collection of videos and manuals describing how to build solar panels, wind turbines, water heaters and solar heaters. The system includes six videos demonstrating how to build a solar panel, including choosing the right materials, finding the right site for the system and avoiding costly mistakes; 10 Frequently Asked Questions videos; and two instruction manuals with step-by-step, illustrated directions. It also includes four videos and two instruction manuals detailing how to build a wind turbine.
While experience in working with wood and other materials is helpful, users don't need to be professional handymen to build these systems, and skills such as welding are not necessary. The company says that installing solar panels and a wind turbine at one's home will cut energy costs by as much as 75 percent.
On average, the costs are under $200 to build a solar panel and under $200 to build a wind turbine. Consumers who purchase already-made solar panels and wind turbines spend three to four times that amount. The time commitment to build a solar panel ranges from two to four hours, with the first one requiring more time than subsequent panels. A wind turbine requires a handful of hours to build.
Importantly, the outside temperature doesn't matter when it comes to benefiting from solar panels, which are energized by sunlight. Urban conditions work too because roofs, poles, fences and windowsills can be utilized.
Check out this Power4Patriots video that answers the question of whether it's reasonable to consider pre-made solar panels.

[Solved] links not responding from floats and fixed positions...
Hello, I am developing a site and have styles set up so that on only the home page the site's logo, navigation, and footer content all have fixed positions so they remain in the corners of the browser, the rest of the screen is a full page slideshow.
Here's the link to the home page: http://testing.neoclassics.org/
The issue I'm having is on the home page, the logo in the top left corner doesn't recognize "hover" over most of the image. Also, the social media icon menu, which is the menu with circular icons in the top right, doesn't recognize "hover" on the first 3 icons and part of the 4th.
I think it has something to do with floats, fixed positions, and their containing elements clearing them, but nothing I try seems to work. It all works fine on the other pages, so I'm sure that it's isolated to the styles that I've attached to just the home page using a "body.menu-home". I tried applying the clearfix class to the containing elements as described by this site, but either it didn't work or I applied it incorrectly or to the wrong container.
Any advice??
To start with the logo link and image don't need to be in a p tag try deleting that.
The same holds true of our menu text...is there a reason it's in a span?
It's certainly capable to detecting a hover because the cursor changes when you hover over it.
Since it's an image what are you expecting to happen when it does hover.
I have to say that using fixed positioning to get a block into place seems odd. Surely whatever CMS you are using will let you put it in the right place.
Perhaps you have your structure / grid system confused.
Some more information: the site is built in Joomla using the blank Gantry Rocket Theme template.
Using the wysiwyg editor, it by default puts a
p> around images and text. I've removed the
p> using the html editor but it still is giving me the same issue. Only now it seems that it recognizes "hover" above the image in a thin strip on the top right side of the header logo/image.
Out of curiosity, regarding your comment that using fixed positions isn't necessary to accomplish this, can you recommend another way if you know it?
Without the position:fixed on those elements on the home page they appear, by default, within the body wrapper, which has a default width that I'd like to keep for all the other pages of the site. It's only the home page that I want to clear as much of the middle of the browser/page so the image slideshow is front and center.
Sorry, I'm not familiar with Joomla but it sounds to me as though you need a different page template for the home page.
Have you set the image to display:block...that might trick it.
There's actually a few (or 6) invisible divs covering the link. They are in a div with the class ".rt-container"
It looks like they're empty - so you should be able to just eliminate them from your markup. That or position that link and z-index it above them. (I think the first solution is better though.)
@tbwiii - z-index did the trick! That never even crossed my mind since there was no other element or content in any of the containing divs.
Unfortunately joomla generates those divs and while there probably is a way to around it happening, I certainly haven't found it yet.

It's not enough that this ice creamery has introduced more than 1,000 ice cream flavors in New York and across the world. Despite increased frozen-dessert competition, Baskin Robbins, always easy to find on Voice Places, has been named the top ice cream franchise in the United States by Entrepreneur magazine. Its nearly 7,000 retail shops have revolutionized the way we buy ice cream, with an ever-changing menu launched in 1945 in Glendale, California. Specialty flavors by the gallon or the scoop come and go, but the most popular ones—Mint Chocolate Chip; Butter Pecan; Rocky Road—have become perennials. Seasonal flavors and grab-and-go treats are a staple, and recent additions to Baskin Robbins' innovative dessert menu include hand-packed ice cream quarts, a unique flavor ribbon technique, and the introduction of mousse-textured ice creams. Signature ice cream cakes and a growing line of ice-creamy beverages (including the coffee-centric Cappuccino Blast) continue a tradition of mixing up the cold-dessert world.

What do you think?
I honestly would think it awesome, or at least be able to partake in a race every other weekend within 50 miles of my house, not so much in the same city (my city doesn't have a whole lot unfortunately, maybe 10 at most). I guess I could understand drivers being annoyed with a race road blocking their way to work, church, home or whatever every weekend.
2013 Races:
Go! St. Louis Half Marathon - April 7, 2013 - 2:18:28 (10:32 min/mile)
Newburgh Rivertown Trail 5k - May 4, 2013 - 25:26 (8:12 min/mile) 1st Place AG out of 13 / 9th out of 100 Female / 45 out of 196 Finishers
YMCA 5k on the Runway - May 11, 2013 (Goal: 26:59) - Time: 26:40 / 8:38 min/mile pace - 102nd of 389 / 25th of 203 Females / 8th of 27 F25-29
There are tons of races in my area in the winter. You have your choice of several every weekend. It gets hard to pick sometimes.
I live in NYC. Our major race organization, NYRR has a pretty decent schedule. Our newer large organization NYC Runs also has quite a bit. And there's a bunch of other random ones you can find too by searching on Active and RunningintheUSA. I bet NYC has a race going somewhere every weekend, and some weekends there are several. I love it!!
5K (6 total) PR: 28:16 (5/5/13) 10K (2 total) PR: 1:05:02 (5/19/13) 4M (2 total) PR:44:46 (4/7/13) [yet to "race" one of these all-out] HM TBD 10/12/13
Upcoming Races:
Capitol Hill Classic 10K 5/19/13
Baltimore 10 Miler 6/15/13
NY Giants Run of Champions 5K 6/23/13
Goal Race of 2013:
Baltimore Half Marathon 10/12/13
Even with all the races they don't disturb traffic nearly as badly in NYC as Baseball season...just saying.
Are you doing this for world peace? For the homeless? Are you running for women's rights? The environment?
They couldn't believe somebody would do all that running for no reason.
Barking Mad To Run
Well, I did 73 races last year, so obviously my area has lots and lots of events all year round. I am lucky in that I live in San Antonio and am only an hour away from Austin and between those two cities we get quite a few choices, as well as in the towns between the two cities.
Sometimes it can be a bit annoying having so many choices because there are often two very good events held on the same day, hate it when that happens!
"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are." Theodore Roosevelt
We are pretty fortunate here in Southeast Michigan in that once the race season is up and running, there are no less than a dozen races every weekend within a 30 minute drive.
Those are not always in the same city, but many cities here do hold multiple races.
From just skimming the link, it sounds like the problem they have is a good one.
"You see an agent, you do what we do. Run. You run your ass off!"
Cypher to Neo - The Matrix
One more reason Evansville sucks Only 2 Half Marathons a year, 1 Full (except it has been canceled for the last 2 years due to humidity and temperature), and 18 smaller races, I think a couple of those are new this year. There are a few I didn't see when registering for 2013 races so I might have to take a look at them
There are a few more in Indiana and Northern Kentucky but not much, running groups like GERWC are trying their damnest to get more races around here, and other groups as well. It is slowly picking up, but nothing like Texas, California, etc...
true story. And most of NYC races are held in parks and
don't require road closures, and since most people take subways it doesn't require parking. NYC Runs does a lotof their runs on Roosevelt Island, too, which has few residents. So NYC can have a ton of races and disturb the lives of very few non-racing residents.
Bad Ass
I am sure Scotty likes all the available races in his area.
I live in a big city and we have between 2-5 events per weekend all between 20-30 miles away. More if you include West Palm Beach. Well, except during the months of May through October because nobody wants to die....
DamarisMarathon Maniac, Ultra Runner
PRs: 24:57 (5K); 51:25 (10K); 42:46 (5 Miles); 2:04:31 (HM); 4:34:09 (Marathon); 8:00 (Trail 50K)
Next: San Francisco Marathon * Chicago Marathon * MCM * Ft. Myers Beach Marathon * Philadelphia Marathon * Space Coast Marathon * WPB Marathon
Damaris Runs with Asthma
Express it.
Man...somma yooz guys are lucky. I have to drive to all my events. Davis was 70 miles, Walnut Creek...110 miles, Oakland...125 miles. I've got some beautiful trails to run up here, but we don't have anything in the way of hosted races.
We can let the circumstances of our lives harden us so that we become increasingly resentful and afraid, or we can let them soften us, and make us kinder.We always have the choice.
Well, I did 73 races last year...
Wow...Impressive my friend. Seriously.
Middle Distance Runner
A bigger question is can a city have too many 5K races to the detriment of the other distances.
2013 Goals: Mile - 7:45 (SB 7:53.74); Run first ultra marathon (Sep 21)
Sounds like you need to start a race.
"Failing to prepare is preparing to fail."
"Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right."
I love Evansville! Both set of my grandparents lived there. I spent a lot of holidays and several weeks every summer there! Sorry for the hijack. Carry on!
One more reason Evansville sucks
But The Smile That I Sent Out Returned With You.
My non-runner friends would say that 1 is too many. My town has around 10 that I know of, and possibly even in the winter I wouldn't have to drive more than an hour to find 1 on a weekend.

[Solved] $(document).width() giving wrong value on refresh in Chrome
$(document).width() gives the proper width when I load the page. But when I refresh in Chome, it includes the width for the scrollbar and I'm not sure why. I've tried writing it a couple different ways but it keeps happening. Any ideas?
I can't replicate that. Do you have a test case for us?
Not at the current moment. Perhaps is has to do with a couple divs just inside the body with a width of 100%.
I'm not sure if this is relevant, but does forcing the scroll bar to always show work (
html { overflow-y: scroll; }
)?Ooooooh, very good idea. That worked.
I'm thinking what happened was the 100% elements was tricking my js to calculating the width before the scrollbars appear.
This made me realize the real issue. I had forgot to wrap my js in $(document).ready() so it was grabbing it before it was loaded (and before the scrollbars existed)
Thanks for the help
EDIT: $(document).ready() didn't stop the issue, so I guess I use overflow then. Unfavorable, but it's okay.
Yeah, I'm not really able to tell without being able to poke around the code, but at least that seems to be fixing it!
Interesting. Definitely keep it inside of doc.ready(), but maybe try using
to calculate your width?

Location: Tick and Biting Fly Research
Technical Abstract: The therapeutic and persistent efficacy of a single subcutaneous injection of a long-acting (LA) formulation of moxidectin at a concentration of 1 mg per kg of body weight were determined against Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus (Canestrini), along with the concentration-time blood sera profile in treated cattle. The therapeutic efficacy against ticks of all parasitic stages on the cattle at the time of treatment was> 99.9%, and the mean tick number, index of fecundity (IF), engorgement weight, and egg mass weight of ticks recovered from treated animals were all significantly lower than ticks from untreated animals. The IF (reproductive capacity), engorgement weight of females, and egg mass weight of ticks recovered from treated animals infested at weekly (7-day) intervals between 14 and 63 day post-treatment were significantly lower than for ticks on untreated animals, while the number of ticks per animal recovered from treated cattle remained lower than that of untreated cattle for up to 49 day post-treatment. The percentage control remained> 99% at week y intervals between 14 and 49 day post-treatment, which is the level of efficacy required for use in the U,S. Cattle Fever Tick Eradication Program, The serum concentration of moxidectin in treated cattle increased to 25.6 ppb within 1 day after treatment, and peaked at 47,3 ppb at 8 day post-treatment. Moxidectin sera levels remained above the estimated 100% threshold level for elimination of feeding ticks (5-8 ppb) for 44-53 day after treatment. The label claim of 50 day of prevention against re-infestation for the LA moxidectin formulation used in the study was supported by the control and sera concentration data obtained. Based on these resu~ts, cattle could be treated at 66 day intervals with minimal risk of viable ticks detaching from treated animals, This treatment interval would be 4.5-fold longer than the presently required treatment interval of 14 day, thus reducing gathering and handling costs, incurred by producers, by approximately 75%.

Using Widgets to Fundraise and Support Good Causes
At Vermont Woods Studios Furniture we get a lot of requests to support good causes. We've listed many of the causes we support on the webpage that describes our environmental mission. Our giving is aligned with our wood furniture business and is focused on sustainable forestry, especially rainforest conservation.
If you represent a non-profit environmental organization, I have to recommend a great tool… the fundraising widget. We use one provided by The Nature Conservancy for their Plant A Billion Trees campaign.
Why do I love it so much?
- It's easy to install on our website
- It enables our customers and our company to donate quickly and easily
- It's a clear visual indicator (thermometer) of how much we've given compared to our goal
- It's auditable
Charitable Fundraisers: If you come to us with a fundraising request that fits our mission and a widget that's easy to use, we're very likely to put it up on our site and start raising money for you.

The Scholarship Luncheon
About Barbara Carr McKee
For Participants& Mentors
Past Scholarship Luncheons
The Barbara Carr McKee Scholarship Luncheon is an annual event that celebrates our scholarship recipients and recognizes the thoughtfulness and generosity of our benefactors.
The Luncheon, held on a Friday in April, features opening remarks by University President Sr. Margaret Carney, O.S.F., S.T.D., a speech by a scholarship recipient, a speech by a scholarship donor, and a showcase of excellent student work.
The event is attended by scholarship recipients, scholarship donors, and the students who created the work on display. The Luncheon is organized by Kathleen Ryan, Assistant Director of Development for Stewardship.
2013 Scholarship Luncheon
In her speech at St. Bonaventure University's 2013 Barbara Carr McKee Scholarship Luncheon, scholarship recipient and honor student, Leanna S. Chojnacki,'13, thanked donors for the many opportunities that their generosity had funded.
Chojnacki, a Political Science and International Studies major with a double minor in History and Law & Society, thanked "those who have donated the gift of education…for giving me the means that I needed to become extraordinary." She detailed her transformation from a shy 17 year old to an accomplished, soon-to-be college graduate.
The annual Barbara Carr McKee Scholarship Luncheon offers a unique opportunity for St. Bonaventure University donors to witness the culmination of a year of hard work by deserving scholarship recipients. This year's luncheon, held on April 26 in the Robert R. Jones Board of Trustees Room in Doyle Hall, featured 18 student showcases displaying special projects that they had completed throughout the academic year. With more than 100 individuals present, the event was both illuminating and edifying.
Marianne Letro Laine, L.H.D.,'68, provided the keynote address. Laine is a longtime supporter of St. Bonaventure University. She was named the inaugural chair of the Guild for the Regina A. Quick Center for the Arts in 2004 and remains its Chair today. As a result of her commitment to the Quick Arts Center, the West Gallery was renamed the Marianne Letro Laine Gallery in May 2010. She aids in funding exhibitions, arts education, and other Quick Center projects and continues to chair the Quick Center Guild. She and her husband, Erick, endowed the Mrs. Mary A. Letro Memorial Scholarship in 2011 and The Joseph A. LoSchiavo Endowment for Exhibitions in 2012.
In her address, Laine urged students to "always remember the wonderful honor you've been given." She reminded the students in attendance that they too could endow a scholarship and "pay it forward" to help ensure that future students are able to pursue their own passions as well.
During the 2012-2013 academic year, 435 deserving and promising students were awarded. The students in attendance at the luncheon represent a selection of St. Bonaventure's most academically impressive and socially conscious individuals. The assistance of scholarships continually allows extraordinary students to pursue a high-quality education and give back to their communities. These students welcome the opportunity to thank the donors who have made their impactful contributions to the future of the university possible.
Persons interested in creating an endowed scholarship or establishing an annual award should contact Kathleen Ryan, director of scholarships and endowments by phone at (716) 375-2308 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Series: Made in the Image of God: The Theological Implications of Human Genomics
This series by Denis Alexander reflects on advancements in genomics as well as their theological implications. He focuses on the relatedness of hominin genomes, arguing that this does not interfere with the image of God in humans. The image of God depends more on the capacity for relationship and covenant, not on a list of particular physical qualities. He then discusses why the recent studies of genomics provide "no grounds for genetic determinism."
Series: Harmonizing Science, Ethics, and Praxis
In this three-part series, Cal DeWitt offers insights and examples of why science and ethics must work together to help us make informed, practical decisions within our society. DeWitt's science-ethics-praxis model provides a framework by which we can live more effectively as God's stewards.
Series: To Serve and Preserve—Genesis 2 and the Human Calling
In this series, David Buller pays careful attention to the original language and cultural context of Genesis 2, revealing that our responsibility to care for creation is a sacred task given to us by God, not merely a modern secular activity. By taking Scripture seriously, we learn that we have a God-given mandate to be diligent stewards of His creation.
Katharine Hayhoe: Evangelical Christian, Climate Scientist
As an Evangelical and a scientist, Katharine Hayhoe is already a member of a rare breed. As a climate change researcher who is also married to an evangelical Christian pastor, she is nearly one of a kind.
Series: Decoding ENCODE
The BioLogos Foundation explains to the findings of the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project and responds to the claims that its discoveries challenge the theory of evolution, especially regarding so-called "junk DNA".
Series: Biblical and Scientific Shortcomings of Flood Geology
Gregg Davidson and Ken Wolgemuth seek to remove the stumbling block of the Genesis flood in this four part series. Though many believe in an ancient world-wide flood, the evidence given does not hold up to geological scrutiny, but points rather to something regional instead. It is their hope that Christians will not walk away from faith in Christ simply because a global flood is not supported by science. Looking at natural phenomena like the Grand Canyon, salt beds, and fossil deposits, they reveal reasons for these deposits and structures while showing that their origin did not stem from a violent flood that covered the planet.
Being Fruitful
Many people use the words "dominion" and "subdue" as "unconditional permission to use the world as they please." I came to realize, like many, that such an interpretation is contradicted by the rest of the Bible.
Series: Science as an Instrument of Worship
In this brief series (taken from a 2009 paper), Jennifer Wiseman uses an excerpt from the famous hymn "How Great Thou Art," to explain why the study of God's creation can lead Christ's followers into meaningful worship and overcome the obstacles which impede true praise. Creation as encountered through our senses is pondered by our minds, which flows into wonder-filled songs from the soul. She further explains how knowledge of creation will help Christians to address the moral dilemmas of science, and she encourages all to see the process of scientific inquiry as a means to discover God's truth.
Possibilities and Second Chances
In today's video, Dr. Rick Colling states that evolution is not merely the imposition of death and destruction and survival of the fittest. Rather, it is about second chances.
Series: Understanding Evolution: Is There "Junk" in Your Genome?
One of the challenges for discussing evolution within evangelical Christian circles is that there is widespread confusion about how evolution actually works. In this installment on "junk DNA", we explore how genomics can be employed to test for non-functional sequences by comparing sequences between related organisms.
Where is the Genetic Evidence for Evolution?
The discovery of DNA has revolutionized our understanding of common descent, particularly in the past few decades. Mutated genes spread through populations over generations, leading to evolutionary change. In this podcast, we look at several examples of genetic evidence for evolution.
Adventist Origins of Young Earth Creationism
Many evangelicals believe that Young Earth Creationism is the only authentic, biblical way for Christians to understand origins, and that until the advent of Darwin's theory of evolution, it was the only view held by Christians. However, in this excerpt from Saving Darwin, Karl Giberson explains that Young Earth Creationism's origins are surprisingly recent.
Series: Evidences for Evolution
This technical series, co-written by Darrel Falk and David Kerk, looks into the evidence for evolution in order to dispel doubts that people may have about this well-supported theory. They look at three things specifically: the separate methods which reveal of the age of the earth, the unfolding history of whale evolution, and finally the common trends of heart development in vertebrates.
Signature in the Pseudogenes, Part 1
One interesting feature of looking at genomes is that often we can find the mutated remains of once-functional genes. These are called pseudogenes, or "false genes." Pseudogenes might be part of a shared backstory for two species, or they might crop up independently after two species go their separate ways.
Stewards of God's (Changing?) World
Interestingly, I find this sort of cynicism about climate change especially prevalent among Christians. Why is this?
Signature in the Synteny
In some ways, comparing the DNA sequence between related organisms is like reading alternative history novels. The hypothesis of common ancestry between similar organisms makes a very straightforward prediction about their genomes...
Series: The Flood: Not Global, Barely Local, Mostly Theological
The three part series, written by Paul Seely, explores the scientific validity of the Flood in Genesis. He offers the approximate date of the flood according to Scripture, and then looks at various lines of evidence that contradict the idea of a global flood at that time. In light of other Mesopotamian flood stories, scholars conclude that the flood was local at best. In the end, he suggests that this story primarily reveals theological truths from a limited scientific understanding of natural events.
Evidence for Evolution in the Mouths of Birds
A friend tells me the most important task for The BioLogos Forum is to present evidence of evolution in ways people without a biology background can understand.
Denisovans, Humans and the Chromosome 2 Fusion
The Denisovans, an extinct hominid group that interbred with modern humans, made the news again lately with the publication of a more detailed study of their genome. One of the many interesting findings was that the Denisovans share the same chromosome 2 fusion that modern humans have.
For the Love of the World: John Stott and His Passion for Creation
Some criticized John for his theistic evolutionary position and even his appreciation for Darwin. But Stott saw no contradiction between his own commitment to the authority of Scripture and his openness to God's use of evolution in His creative process.
