Giving back to the WordPress community
Teaching is by far one of the best ways to hone your skills and give back to the community. However, one of the most difficult aspects is creating the required teaching material. Wouldn't it be great if you could simply download someone else's curriculum, slides and exercises? The following website intends to do just that. Aimed at WordPress teachers, I've gathered all of my notes, slides and tutorials and made them available for download.
Created originally for students enrolled in the Electronic Media Design Program at Langara College, the goal of the class is to educate web developers on how WordPress can be used to create an online portfolio.
This class is designed to be taught in 30 – 36 hours. This class also assumes that students are familiar with CSS and HTML. Knowledge of PHP is not required but very useful.
Once completed students should know:
- How to install WordPress locally and on hosting provider
- How to make a child theme
- Understand the making of a WordPress and the function of each template
- How to create a WordPress site
If you are a teacher, feel free to download the course material, read the tutorials and contact me if you have any questions or if you would like to contribute.

The sixth annual Augustana Sights and Sounds exhibition opens at Bucktown Center for the Arts (225 E. 2nd St., Davenport) tonight from 6 to 9 p.m. The free event will feature photography from both Augustana students and Quad-Cities high school students, in addition to video narratives by the Augustana Video Bureau.
The exhibition will run through Friday, Feb. 22. Augustana Photo Bureau students will display a series of photos that highlight student life on the Rock Island campus, experiences in the Quad-Cities and personal interests. Live music will be performed tonight by Augustana music students.
Area high school photographers submitted their best original photos to compete for scholarship money and prizes. Members of the Augustana Photo Bureau judged the entries, and the winners' photos will be displayed as part of the exhibit.
The Augustana Video Bureau began in May 2012 to highlight life on campus from the perspective of students, faculty and staff. Videos range from short, narrative pieces featuring interviews to longer-form productions of notable speeches and lectures on and off campus. Advisor Andrew Petersen encourages students to experiment with different shooting and editing techniques to build video production skills. Students also strengthen interpersonal skills through video interviews.
Tonight's event also opens a photo exhibit by C.T. Weiss, an associate professor of graphic communication at Western Illinois University in Macomb. He said he has loved photography since childhood.
"I still remember my father walking around with an old 35-millimeter camera always around his neck," Mr. Weiss said in a release. "Even though I realized after college that I couldn't make a living with my camera, I never stopped loving photography."
Accordingly, all of the images in the current exhibit were produced from film negatives using traditional darkroom practices. "This exhibit is all about using the basics," he said. "I still love the moment when I see the negative images for the first time."
The exhibit also will run through Feb. 22. Mr. Weiss will be on hand during the opening to discuss his work and answer questions.

I am a little be alarmed at the large number of midway attractions scattered throughout the park. I was hoping for something a bit more along the lines of an IOA, but that may be a bit much to ask.
The Zeppelin coaster looks a lot like the Hulk without the initial launch....I hope I am wrong.
Maximum RPM looks interesting, but if the ferris wheel aspect is just a gimmick...it could get old fast.
Nights in White Satin, based on your description and others I have read, seems to have fallen far short of being a Spider-Man killer....
The comments about the food are a bit disturbing, but hopefully the food situation will sort itself out over time.
The Bohemian Rhapsody night time show looks phenomenal.....
Overall it seems as though your review of the park is optimistic and favorable....and with some more time to implement future phases of the design...I think Hard Rock will be a solid edition to the theme park scene.
Any word on the area hotels? Any nice resorts on property?
James, I tried writing this thing three times before this, but I'm honestly not used to writing something that text-heavy. On my site, we use a lot of pictures so it doesn't usually have to be quite that much in depth (I sent you a link for that via the "send a comment" thing here. Did you get it?)
The place will probably be a lot different by the time I can get the time, money, and energy for a South Carolina trip. Every time I go to SC I just want to relax at the Isle of the Palms...not sure how a theme park is gonna fit into that peaceful itinerary...but I will figure it out!
Anyway, great job!
Sounds like the park is running pretty well for just now opening. I wonder just how well those prices for everything will fly. Myrtle Beach is attracting more and more affluent guests, but the bread and butter of it's tourist market is still the blue collar family on a bit of a budget. They could just be testing the waters on that one. Whatever the case, the park will fly. If it's as good as you say it is, than this year will be huge. Myrtle Beach has been starved for a major park for a while now.
I cannot wait to see this place for myself and the transformation from what was the abandonded remains of an outlet mall less than 2 years ago!

The Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings announced Friday they have given contract extensions to coach Darryl Sutter, who lives in Manhattan Beach, president-general manager Dean Lombardi and president of business operations Luc Robitaille.
Sutter was named the Kings coach Dec. 20, 2011, guiding them to a 25-13-11 record in the regular season as they qualified for the eighth and final playoff berth in the Campbell Conference. They went on to defeat the conference's first-, second- and third-seeded teams in the Stanley Cup playoffs and the New Jersey Devils in the Stanley Cup Final to win the Stanley Cup for the first time in their 45-season history.
Lombardi has been general manager since April 21, 2006. Robitaille has been in his position since May 25, 2007.
"We are ecstatic that we have kept our leadership team in place, both on the hockey side with Dean and Darryl and on the business side with Luc and remain in position to continue competing for the Stanley Cup for many more years," team Governor Tim Leiweke said.
"They have all done a fantastic job in their respective areas and they have put together outstanding leadership teams. They collectively are a huge reason our franchise is enjoying the success we are enjoying. Now the challenge is to stay on top of that mountain."

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"The purple color I chose looks amazing! So bright! Very happy with the quality of the cards! Thank you Wedding Paper Diva's!"
"Amazing quality of printing services and most importantly, the designer was patient with my 5+ changes to my proofs. They were extremely courteous and listened to all my requests. My only complaint is that the postcard is slightly smaller than I expected - smaller than a normal postcard. Also, I cut my photo exactly to the specs they listed for the card and it never fit! Something is not right on the dimensions. But, I can't complain about the service and overall quality, plus the customization with multiple fonts/colors was excellent. I will definitely be using WPD for my printing needs to all things wedding!"
"I was so excited when I saw this card! It looked exactly like the tea party themed bridal shower my sister threw for me! It was like reliving that special moment when I saw this gorgeous design. Too bad she didn't see the invites. The textured paper is wonderful and I couldn't be happier with the print quality and ease of customization."
"I really love the custom colors that I was able to have completed on this card. The colors looked beautiful and matched my wedding colors perfectly. I was very happy that using custom colors did not cost any extra and that I was able to see what they would look like in the digital proof. The quality in paper and printing is very high and looks beautiful."
"The card turned out beautiful! I changed a save the date card into my retirement invitation and it turned out so beautiful! The watercolour I chose was green and gray in colour and was just what I wanted!! I used greengrass font with green and black printing,some of it was bolded for added detail. The background on the back was full of the watercoloured images. The card was on the shimmery paper and I really liked that also.! I have shown it to a few people and they all think it is stunning!!! I can't wait to send them out!!! I like the product so much I went back on and ordered Thank You cards."

By Lori Brown - bio | email
MEMPHIS, TN (WMC-TV) - Dozens of Shelby County inmates hit the streets Friday to help clean up a property in Nutbush.The inmates worked as part of a partnership between a re-entry program for jail inmates and an anti-violence organization."We want people to be able to say, 'I'm proud to be a citizen of Memphis,'' Pastor Marvin Jones said.Jones, the pastor of Holy Calling Fellowship Church, partnered with Memphis Code Enforcement and Freedom From Unnecessary Negatives. Together they want to take back a Nutbush neighborhood."It gives those men some work habits," said Stevie Moore of Freedom from Unnecessary Negatives. "Some of those men have never even mowed a yard."Within 45 minutes, Shelby County inmates put an end to the "criminal-clubhouse" complete with gang graffiti."Blight is a direct relationship to crime," Moore said. "If we keep blight in our community, you could kill someone and throw them in this bush and nobody would ever know they're over here."Moore came up with the idea to enlist inmates to fight against blight. As a former inmate himself, he knew it could help others. Then, he said, Mayor A C Wharton helped make it happen."These young men and women, they've got to do something when they get out," Moore said. "This teaches them to do something. We're working on something to help them be able to do this when they get out of jail."Moore said the partnership will help inmates learn to give back to the community, instead of take from it - a lesson close to his heart.

Hillary Clinton gave a speech in Iowa over the weekend, and it sounded a lot like a stump speech in the making. Even the theme was familiar: 'It's the economy, stupid.'
Hillary Rodham Clinton did not announce that she's running for president during her big Sunday appearance at the Harkin Steak Fry in Iowa. Nobody really expected she would, though reporters keep asking about her intention. Maybe they just hope she'll forget herself and let something slip out if they keep up the badgering.

AARP MedicareRx Enhanced
(See Reviews of this Plan from Other Regions)
Overall Rating:
What to expect:
Terrible company. Ordered on the 4th of June. It is now the 17th and nothing. A call 2 days ago had Prescription Solutions telling me that my order was "at the post office". It was not, and is not. Today was told that "a couple scripts" were at the post office. They are/were not. Today I was told they needed payment for "gap" coverage. They have my c.c., which they have used before. Said they did not want to charge my card without talking to me first about the charge. Two days ago, the person I spoke to said NOTHING about any payment due. They apparently just do not send out your prescription if they don't feel like it. Absolutely cannot depend on this company. If your meds are critical to your health, go elsewhere !

Most Americans do not want the United States to intervene in Syria's civil war even if the government there uses chemical weapons, a Reuters/Ipsos poll showed on Wednesday, in a clear message to the White House as it considers how to respond to the worsening crisis.
Only 10 percent of those surveyed in the online poll said the United States should become involved in the fighting. Sixty-one percent opposed getting involved.
The figure favoring intervention rose to 27 percent when respondents were asked what the United States should do if President Bashar al-Assad's forces used chemical weapons. Forty-four percent would be opposed.
"Particularly given Afghanistan and the 10th anniversary of Iraq, there is just not an appetite for intervention," said Ipsos pollster Julia Clark.
The rebellion against Assad's government has resulted in 70,000 dead and created more than 1.2 million refugees since it erupted in 2011.
President Barack Obama has shied away from deep U.S. involvement, although he declared last year that the use or deployment of chemical weapons by Assad's government would cross a "red line."
Obama said on Tuesday there was evidence those weapons had been used, but too much is still unknown for Washington to do more than provide the non-lethal aid it is already sending to the Syrian rebels.
Obama did not rule out action – military or otherwise – against Assad's government. But he repeatedly stressed he would not allow himself to be pressured prematurely into deeper intervention in Syria's two-year-old civil war.
Many Americans are still oblivious to events in Syria. The poll found that about one-third, or 36 percent, had neither heard nor read anything about the civil war there.
Only 8 percent said they had heard or read a great deal and 19 percent said they had heard or read a "fair amount."
The online poll of 519 Americans aged 18 and over was conducted from April 26-May 1. The survey has a credibility interval of plus or minus 4.9 percentage points.

One Response to "Poll: Americans should stay the hell out of Syria"
Run…don't walk to engage in war with Syria. The US economy needs a serious boost.
Afghanistan isn't producing enough jobs and the MIC is freaking out.
Yep, head to Syria.
Oh, and out of 310 million people…what's few more lost lives and a few thousand injured US soldiers?
And don't close Gitmo…the US Gov will need to use it for Syrians.
Make a new Constitutional Amendment…bring back GW Bush to run the war campaign against Syria.
Carl Rove needs the money, too.

LEGO Unveils 'Back To The Future' Time Machine Set
Nike Air Mag (via Nice Kicks) Marty McFly's Nike
Nike Air Mag (via Nice Kicks) Marty McFly's Nike
Nike Air Mag (via Nice Kicks) Marty McFly's Nike
14 Things from Back to the Future II That Actually Came True, and 4 That Haven't… Yet
Five years from now, Marty McFly will show up in Hill Valley to save his kids. We wanted to see just how prophetic Zemeckis was in 1989, when he designed Hill Valley: 2015. Find out after the jump!
Handless and/or wireless video games
Marty shows Baby Elijah Wood and some other kid how awesome games were in the '80s. Then, Baby Elijah Wood claims, like the brat that kids these days are, that games that require you to use your hands are totally stupid. Clearly he's never played Big Buck Hunter. So, though Baby Elijah is totally wrong about old school video games being lame nowadays (why else would they have so many old school downloads available for Wii?), Zemeckis called handless/wireless video games being the cool new way to play. Xbox is set to release Kinect later this year. And earlier this month, Oprah's audience went completely crazy over the thing, despite not exactly being Xbox's target demo. So if middle aged white ladies love new age technology, it must be good.
Our obsession with 3D movies and sequels
I mean, if you've seen an action and or animated movie in the past year or two, chances are it was in 3D and way too expensive. The newest *%*%**% was in 3D. There are even 3D televisions. We. Love. 3D. So much, that I even found this list, telling you everything you'd want to know about all the 3D movies that have come or are coming out.
The only thing we love more than 3D? Sequels! Look, Jaws 19! Sure, we haven't gotten to Jaws 19 yet, but there are seven Saw movies, the last of which is in… wait for it… 3D! Saw… Jaws, it's close enough.
Handheld tablet computers
Remember that thing Apple released this year? That totally revolutionized mobile techology? A little ditty called the iPad? Yeah, this scene where another member of Hill Valley's Preservation Society holds out a tablet for Marty to sign, probably electronically, to save the clock tower. What Zemeckis lacked in aging make up he made up for in predicting advanced technological devices. The tablet featured in the film is much clunkier than the tablets we have today, but the idea is still the same: something small and wireless that people can do cool things with. Like save clock towers. Or play Angry Birds.
A baseball team in Florida
Surprise! The Florida Marlins, who happen to be Miami based, debuted in the MLB in 1993. And in 1998, the Tampa Bay Devil Rays became Florida's second baseball team.
Video conferencing
What college kid with a Macbook, who also has friends with a Macbook hasn't video chatted on iChat, or Gchat or Chatroulette or blah blah blah, the list goes on. People like looking at faces of the people they're talking to. Apple even brought it to phones with Face Time for the iPhone. I have a Blackberry, so I don't know what this is like yet, but I hear it's a pretty magical thing. (Also, check out that device on the right hand side of the frame. Looks awfully like a Bow-flex, right?)
Wall-mounted widescreen televisions
That unit Marty's got in his living room hanging over his fireplace looks amazingly like the ones that fill the shelves of your local Best Buy. Zemeckis imagined that the frames would be a little more ornate than what we currently have, like a picture frame, but being able to nail down the key features of wall-mounted, flat panel televisions means this is a definite win for the movie. Also, predicting that we would dump the standard 4x3 television aspect ratio for 16x9 was a stroke of genius.
Auto lacing sneakers
Nike released limited edition version of Marty's Hyperdunks, inspired by the shoes he wore in the film. And though they don't auto lace or anything, that's still pretty sweet.
However, last month on GMA, a hotel manager/amateur shoe developer(?) showed off her prototype of auto-lacing shoes with spare parts she found around the hotel. This kind of crazy science would make Doc Brown proud!
Being consumed with personal electronics
Sure, we don't wear TV glasses, or answer the phone on said TV glasses, but at any given moment when I'm out to dinner with friends or family, we're all talking to other people while sitting with each other. All consumed by our ability to escape the present situation. It's pretty sad actually, and Rob Zemeckis knew that in the future, we'd become victims of our own technological advancements.
Multiple TV channels
Multiple cable providers allow you to watch multiple channels at once, in various arrays. This is mostly great for sports, but can be used for anything, I guess.
Performance enhancers being a major problem in Sports
(Click image to enlarge)
Check out the left sidebar of the newspaper on the right, it says that a pitcher has been suspended for using "bionic arm." Now, surely no one in Major League Baseball has gone that far yet, but performance enhancers (of any kind) being accurately predicted as a problem that lands on the front page is pretty spot-on.
Compost fuel
The use of compost as fuel definitely exists, and is commonly known as biogas. However, it's not as commonplace as it appears to be in 2015. Doc Brown may have gone all Pimp My Ride on the DeLorean in the film, but chances are we won't be rummaging through our trash and powering our flux capacitors with it instead of plutonium in the next 5 years.
Flying cars
I could try to pretend that I know anything about cars or the prospect of flying cars, but I'd just look like a fool. So, instead you should read this post over at Jalopnik about real life flying cars. If you're too lazy to click, the gist is that we are inching our way toward the flying car dream. But chances that these will be everywhere by 2015? Highly unlikely. We'll still need roads. Traffic ridden, horrible roads.
So, a real actual hoverboard, just like the one in Back to the Future II, EXISTS! So what if you can't actually use it? Or stand on it? Or do anything but look at it? It's real! And pink! Someone please get the guy who created it a meeting with Mattel.
Dehydrated food
In the movie, the McFly family enjoy a nice dinner of rehydrated pizza. Dehydration and rehydration of food is still something we don't really have that much of, though we obviously have some, if you count pasta and rice and such. Or what you can score at Costco. But nothing nearly as complex as a pizza. And with the current emphasis on organic and local food fare, it doesn't seem likely to come about any time soon.
Cubs winning the World Series
I know, I know. Technically it's too early to call this one a dud. There are still 5 years to go. But do you really think the Cubbies have a chance at winning the World Series from now until 2015? Especially in a sweep against the Marlins which couldn't happen since they're both in the National League. The chances of the Cubs beating the Tampa Bay Rays is even lower, they don't have anyone who can match up against Longoria or Pena. The Cubs. Hah. And, though sports owners are always looking for more ways to make money, it's doubtful that the World Series would be extended to Best out 9, which is what it would need to be for the Cubs to win in 5.
Nobody uses laser discs anymore
These babies are nowhere to be found, not even in back alleys ready to hide unconscious girlfriends in the future. I am pretty sure the last time I saw a laser disc was in my 6th grade history class. I only know of one instance that laser discs are still used today, thanks to my dad who I'm fairly sure taught Earth Science with them right up to his retirement last year. Way to keep the dream alive, pop.
Princess Diana is dead and we've still haven't had a female President
(Click image to enlarge)
The mention of "Queen Diana" deserves a giant sad trombone, because we all know the People's Princess died in a car accident thanks to +%!+@#! paparazzi in 1997. And the chances that we'll have a women president in 2015 are pretty slim. Unless Sarah Palin uses some of Christine O'Donnell's magic spells. One other thing it gets wrong: that we'll still have newspapers in five years.
Fax machines are the preferred form of communication
Back to the Future II asserts that sending information by fax is the most efficient way to communicate in 2015, but we now know that fax machines were only useful for a very short time, almost exactly like laser discs. Too bad Zemeckis couldn't see email or IM coming, that would have been amazing.
Double ties are an acceptable look
Check out Marty sporting that sweet double tie, because Back to the Future II is the only place you'll see 'em. There's very little chance that men's formal neckware goes in that direction in five years.
August 25, 2010 / By Ian Stonebrook
According to the World Intellectual Property Organization's website and Dime, Tinker Hatfield and his boys at the Nike Innovative Kitchen have filed patent papers for a shoe with an automatic lacing system, such as seen on the Nike Air Mag from Back to the Future II.
If this technology is to be used in the form of a Marty McFly inspired sneaker it would be the definition of game changer; the perfect intersection between performance and nostalgia. The movie was set in 2015; is a Nike Air Mag "Marty McFly" release on the horizon? Stayed tuned to Nice Kicks for more info!
Check out more photos of the shoes, the lacing system, and the charging system below.

As we inch closer to the debt deadline, locals are calling out to their state leaders for answers about a shutdown they say has gone on for far too long.
Those who braved the rain to gather in Downtown Fargo Monday, and called out to Congressman Kevin Cramer asking what he's doing to find a solution.
The group shouted "end the shutdown now", and as they did cars honked in agreement.
"We feel that today we're going to come out and call him out, and expect him to say something." says Mara Solberg while protesting without any rain boots or mittens.
Because the rain didn't stop the protesters from coming out to express their frustration with the continued shutdown.
"It takes people that are really fed up to come out on a day like today in Fargo." John Jorgensen says with his hood dripping the rain onto his face.
They are speaking out to Representative Kevin Cramer, saying he needs to fight for the people who voted for him. The people trying to make do, now that government support has run out.
"He needs to represent the disabled veterans, the elderly collecting social security, the kids that aren't getting head start." Jorgensen says.
"What are you doing? Your silence tells us that you don't support us, I would like to hear from you." Solberg pleas.
So we brought their questions to Cramer, who says he's been working hard to end the shutdown.
"I've been here everyday for over 3 weeks now, even working weekends trying to get this government open, trying to pass bills, trying to negotiate with a president who's obstinate and will hear nothing of it." Representative Kevin Cramer says.
Cramer says he's happy there are people fighting the shutdown.
"I applaud anyone who will stand out in the rain, and express themselves in the middle of the day, that takes courage." Cramer adds.
But many asked what he is doing personally to open the government.
"This shut down has got to end, and it's in his hands, he's been voted into office and he should do his job." Solberg says.
"I voted for three (bills) that passed that would open the entire government, senate hasn't voted for one that would open the entire government." Cramer says, "Beyond that everyday I meet with a group of Democrats and Republicans called the United Solutions Caucus, we're about 40 strong, there are about 6 to 8 of us that are in leadership that met every single day to try and find bipartisan solutions."
Cramer says he's doing more than most to end the shutdown.
"I would say you'd be hard pressed to find anybody that's doing more personally to get the government open than I am, and I would add on top of that, I haven't furloughed any of my employees. Every single North Dakotan that works for me, has been at work every single day trying to get this government open again. They're answering calls from citizens, talking with the stake-holders of North Dakota. In-fact on Saturday I helped pass another farm bill measure that form our conference committee. I even got on the floor for two resolutions that aimed right at North Dakota farmers, and was able to fight off those that would kill for example the sugar program which is very important to the viewers of your TV station., so have I done anything personally? I'd put it up against anybody else in the delegation, times two."
But as the protesters numbers dwindled, their message remained: They just want to hear the end of the shutdown is near.
"End the shutdown now, get to work." Jorgensen says one last time.
Another rally to protest the shutdown is scheduled for Wednesday on the Veterans Memorial Bridge at 5:00p.m.

Really cute Albagore Halloween Skeleton Figure This Halloween decoration, Albagore Halloween Skeleton Figure is,SOOOOO CUTE. LOVE IT. September 3, 2014
very different very different i added this one to the ones i had by joe spencer October 7, 2012
Very disappointing I have made other purchases from Grandin Road, but this is the first time I've been extremely disappointed in an item. The doll that was pictured online and in the catalog looked much better than the actual product. Most disappointing was the quality of the doll's hair, which is sparse, with absolutely no shape, and impossible to restyle into something more attractive. This definitely was not worth the high price. October 8, 2012
made really well really liked it added to my other ones i had price is a little high October 7, 2012
Wonderful quality and unique items I recentley purchased two halloween figurines and the Bench they sit on.They were just as described and beautifully made. I have also In the past purchased Chrismas decor.One arrived w/ some damage and was immediately replaced. Wonderful customer service. Thank you October 2, 2012
Addorable We have Zanzabelle sitting on the counter in our office. She is so cute, and sits up very well. Great addition to our Halloween decor. September 21, 2012
Nice accent! Works great in that area you need a little character to bring to life without taking a lot of space. Well made! January 6, 2012
excellent quality Had been watching this item to go on sale & when it did, I was thrilled to be able to purchase. The quality & price are amazing. I also purchased the bench. Only thing that would have made it better was to be able to purchase the witch, which was out of stock. Oh well, maybe next year. January 3, 2012

Florida Geological Survey - Geologic Topics
Earth's rocks are basically classified as igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary. In this application we deal only with the sedimentary class of rocks or deposits. Sediments may be either indurated (i.e., cemented as rocks) or unconsolidated (i.e., deposits). If indurated sedimentary rocks can be disaggregated, they can be analyzed by the tools described in this application.
There are many reasons to study sedimentary deposits including reconstructing and identifying the transportation mechanisms and depositional environments. This application provides the opportunity to do so by plotting the results of grain-size analyses (granulometry). This application is comprehensive enough that almost all of the typical granulometric objectives will be satisfied.
Two-dimensional plotting tools have been widely used in the analysis and interpretation of granulometric data. Arithmetic-arithmetic, log-log, arithmetic-log (semi-log), and other types of plots have been proposed to display analytical results. The use of arithmetic probability paper (APP), however, has far more useful capabilities. Natural data plotted on APP may, in many applications, be made up of multiple straight-line segments or components. These segments are often attributable to some identifiable natural cause or process. Most statistical computer applications do not allow for the generation of APP plots, because of non-linearity of the percentile (or probability) axis of the plot. This problem has been solved in the present application by the derivation of equation(s) for quantifying plotting positions of Gaussian percentiles (or probabilities), so that APP plots can be easily computer generated.
Programmed EXCEL application templates are provided here (click on the appropriate links) for automatically-produced, complete granulometric analyses. The EXCEL application is designed for use with classified data, such as sieve data. For unclassified data, such as that from settling tube analysis, the settling tube data will need to be transformed to classified format in order to use the EXCEL application. The file includes a README spreadsheet that provides information about how to use the workbooks. An enhanced version of GRANPLOTS (release 4.0) has recently been added to the application. It allows the user the ability to identify and fit signatures reflecting transportation and deposition to plotted results and to produce publication-quality figures.
Additional material is currently being prepared for this application including a comprehensive compilation of granulometry protocols, including field sampling, lab procedures, analytical/statistical determinations and interpretation. This documentation is particularly useful because these topics are not typically addressed in sedimentary texts.
Based on monthly "hit" data and user feedback, it appears that there has been significant use of this website application; however, actual use is not quantified. We would appreciate hearing from you if you use this application so that we can maintain and continuously improve this website.
The original version of this program appeared in the following publication: Balsillie, J.H., Donoghue, J.F., Butler, K.M., and Koch, J.L., 2002, Plotting equation for Gaussian percentiles and a spreadsheet program for generating probability plots: Journal of Sedimentary Research, v. 72, p. 929-933. Subsequent revisions have been made by Jim Balsillie and Joe Donoghue. Any questions or comments on the application can be addressed to Joe Donoghue at email@example.com. The form below can also be used for feedback. Any information you provide is purely voluntary. The form is NOT required in order to use this application.

"Who" Does Tom Cruise Think He Is?
"I wish the world was a different place. I'd like to go on vacation, and go and romp and play, you know what I mean? But I can't. Because I know. I know. I have to do something about it. You can sit here and wish it was different, but there's that moment where you go, 'You know, I have to do something. Don't I?'"
Blessed by Xenu, Tom Cruise has a special purpose.
He has been charged with the utmost sacred task – a task of such importance only the highest ranking and therefore cash-rich members of the Church of Scientology can be trusted to carry it out.
Sure, it might seem strange that an international megastar and one of Scientology's most high-profile followers would also turn out to be one of the most important as well but our Alien overlords move in mysterious ways.
You see Tom Cruise will save us all; not with a Glock 9, not with an F-16 but with a pamphlet.
According to a snigger-some article over at Hollywood.com, the star of such movies as Minority Report, War of the Worlds and – more importantly – Days of Thunder, believes he has been charged with saving humanity from alien life forms.
Sound familiar? Not quite because for this analogy to work he'd have to be an alien right? Well, according to Scientologists we are all the vessels for celestial beings known as Thetans – a high-minded race that have forgotten who they are and thus are harming us in our day-to-day lives.
We can only be saved from this nightmare by an 'audit' but even then, that won't work unless were a hundred per-cent committed to Scientology and its inevitable costs.
Which is exactly like the Doctor right? He's an alien saving us from other aliens, as long as we're committed and are prepared to have our souls
and bank accounts audited.
Anyway this is all part of new information which come to light from Pulitzer-Prize winning writer and author of Going Clear: Scientology, Hollywood & the Prison of Belief, Lawrence Wright who conducted over 200 interviews with "current and former" Scientologists of various ranks within the organization in an attempt to lay bare the secretive and therefore litigious religion.
Of course, they've already trashed it. Calling it an: "Error-filled unsubstantiated bigoted anti-Scientology book."
So you know it must be good.
There's no denying it's problematic to say that Tom Cruise believes he's an alien fighting other aliens in a battle to save our planet like the Doctor, or that he and other members of the Church can believe what they want to believe. Far be it from us to belittle someone's faith, regardless of how much money is involved.
The real issues are that as the organization's most high-profile member (ask someone to name a famous Scientologist and they'll name Cruise of John Travolta), what is his role within the Church? Is he ignorant to the accusations of abuse and involuntary confinement levelled at Scientology? Or is it willful blindness?
After all, according to Wright he doesn't do too badly out of this bargain. The church even went so far as to hand-craft a limousine for him.
Imagine the joy in the heart of the church member given the most sacred of task, a task only a person of his rank and devotion could complete; to plane the handcrafted panelling on the passenger side door of Tom Cruise's Limo. Sadly, we doubt it is bigger on the inside.
We've all been born to a special purpose. It just turns out that some people are more special than others.
6 Responses to "Who" Does Tom Cruise Think He Is?
Great piece. When you realise what T. Cruise stands for, you immediately understand why John Barrowman doesn't like being compared to him!
The deeper you look into the "church" of Scientology the more creepy and insane it becomes. Hubbard was one of the most cynical and ethically challenged people I've ever come across. Did you know he started scientology to win a bet? The bet was that he couldn't make a profit by starting a religion! No wonder these high profile members all come across as (to put it politely) whackadoodles. You've got to be either extraordinarily gullible or tragically vulnerable to buy into his made-up-on-the-fly mumbo jumbo.
Interesting article, but I don't really see the point in running this on a Doctor Who website. The connection is tenuous, at best.
I'm disappointed that you would run this on your site. This has nothing to do with Doctor Who.

Hollywood did its work early this week — with Christmas Day openings of "Les Misérables," "Django Unchained" and "Parental Guidance" — so there are only a couple of art-house debuts among the weekend movie releases.
"Simon and the Oaks" is an overstuffed, overwrought Swedish drama — a coming-of-age tale involving a lad (played by Jonaton S. Wächter as a boy, and Bill Skarsgård as a young man) who discovers a dark family secret, leading to an identity crisis during the Nazi occupation of Sweden. Skarsgård (brother of "True Blood" star Alexander, son of "The Avengers'" Stellan) is charismatic, but the movie is a slog of too many extraneous subplots.
Also this week is "Sundance Short Film Reel 2012," a compilation of 10 short films from the last Sundance Film Festival. Such programs are always hit and miss, but this one has a pretty high average. Some of the shorts — like the animated "Song of the Spindle" and the wicked comedy "Bear" — are phenomenally good.
By the way, in today's Tribune is The Cricket's list of the Top 10 movies of 2012, all of which are recommended viewing. (There's also a list of the worst movies of the year, if you're feeling masochistic in your film choices.)

Alert! Alert!
Because NICHCY's website will only remain online until September 30, 2014, most of its rich content has moved to a new home, the Center for Parent Information and Resources (CPIR), where it can be kept up to date.
The new address of Parent Groups at the CPIR is:
Updated October 2010
Families with a child who has a disability have special concerns and often need a great deal of information: information about the disability of their child, about school services, therapy, local policies, funding sources, transportation, medical facilities, and much more. Many families find it very useful to join a parent group, which is what this page is all about.
Quick-Jump Links
- Why join a parent group?
- Your PTI and CPRC
- The Parent to Parent Program
- Parent Groups on Specific Disabilities
- None of that worked?
Why Join a Parent Group?
When families join a parent group, they can meet other families with similar needs. Parent groups can serve many purposes, but one of their most important can be to introduce families to others like themselves. While it's true that many online parent groups never actually meet in person, the interactions online can provide much needed information and emotional support. Often, though, parent groups form locally, so that families can meet in person.
In person or online, when families with similar concerns meet, there is a sense of community, of understanding. You create a place where you can laugh about the same things, where you can discuss the same problems, where you can help each other. Where else can a parent find out which local dentists are good with children who don't sit still, where to buy specialized clothes, toys, or equipment, how to help a teenager find a summer or after-school job, or how to fill out a social security application?
This page of NICHCY's website will help you identify the parent groups that exist nationally and in your state and community. It will also help you decide which group or groups would be useful to you in meeting your family's needs and concerns.
Your PTI and CPRC
PTI stands for Parent Training and Information. Each state has at least one PTI program. If you're looking for resources in your state and community, call your state's PTI. The PTI can also give you information about disabilities, the educational rights of your child, or strategies for being an effective advocate for your child.
Similarly, some states also have what's known as a CPRC—Community Parent Resource Center, which is funded to serve a particular high-need area or audience.
NICHCY offers several resources about PTIs and CPRCs. These include:
NICHCY's Parent Basic on PTIs and CPRCs, which will give you a clear description of what these centers do—and what they can do for you and your family. Find this publication at:
Our State Organizations lists (there's one for every state and territory), which will list your state's PTI and CPRC. You'll find that resource sheet at:
On the State Organizations page, select your state. From the drop-down menu, select "Organizations for Parents." Submit your search. Results will include the PTI and CPRC listings. And remember—often, they have local offices. So even if not located nearby, they may have a satellite office in your area.
The Parent to Parent Program
Ever wish you could talk to another parent whose child has the same disability as yours? The Parent to Parent Program may be for you, then. It matches parents in one-on-one relationships for sharing information, experiences, and emotional and practical support.
Use NICHCY's resources to learn more about, and connect with, your state's parent to parent program. For example:
- Read our Parent Basic about the Parent to Parent Program, including how to get in touch with the one in your state.
English version | http://nichcy.org/wp-content/uploads/docs/bp2.pdf
Spanish version | http://nichcy.org/espanol/publicaciones/apoyo
- Our State Organizations list, which we mentioned above. The Parent to Parent program for your state is listed on your state's organizational list, under the category "Organizations for Parents." You'll find your state's list at:
Parent Groups on Specific Disabilities
There are many, many parent groups that focus on issues and concerns related to a particular disability. For example, local parents whose children have a learning disability may group together to talk about how to handle their child's education, find a local dentist or pediatrician, and put their heads together to troubleshoot any number of common concerns.
How do you find such a group in your area? We'd suggest trying any of the resources below. They'll start you at the national or state level, where you can find a group (if one exists) in or near your community.
Try our Disability Fact Sheets. We offer fact sheets on a range of disabilities. Most are available in English and Spanish. At the end of each sheet, there's a resource listing of national level organizations specializing in that disability. If you contact those groups, by phone or via the Web, they can put you in touch with state or local chapters of their group (if they operate chapters, that is).
Fact sheets in English are located at:
There, you'll find fact sheets on these disabilities:
- Autism/PDD*
- Cerebral Palsy*
- Deaf-Blindness
- Deafness/Hearing Loss*
- Developmental Delay
- Down Syndrome*
- Emotional Disturbance*
- Epilepsy*
- Intellectual Disabilities (formerly Mental Retardation)*
- Learning Disabilities*
- Other Health Impairment*
- Rare Disorders
- Severe/Multiple Disabilities
- Speech-Language Impairments*
- Spina Bifida*
- Traumatic Brain Injury*
- Visual Impairments*
The fact sheets marked with an asterisk above (*) are available in Spanish. Find the Spanish versions at:
Consult NICHCY's State Organizations list for your state. There's a section called "Disability-Specific Organizations." Within that section, state chapters of disability groups are listed. See if there's a listing for the disability in which you're interested.

(WNFL)- The second of three draft choices for the Milwaukee Bucks reportedly has a broken foot. The Journal Sentinel says guard-and-forward Damien Inglis of France will not play in the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas next month -- but the injury is expected to heal in time for Milwaukee's training camp in October. Inglis reportedly hurt his foot during a workout. Last night, Bucks' general manager John Hammond said the team would not keep Inglis in France in order to develop some more. He has said he wanted to start his N-B-A career as soon as possible, and he'll be joining the Bucks for next season.

It was easier when we were simply soldiers, one spy says to the other as they try to calculate their responsibility or, perhaps, reprehensibility in the gruesome strangling of a colleague at the hands of the opposition. Black and white. Now everything is gray.
Gray is definitely the color of the night on Wednesday television with the debut of two shows cloaked in moral and narrative ambiguity. BBC Americas Spies of Warsaw is a classic tale of espionage, chockablock with secret agents peering up one anothers skirts (often quite literally), while in DirecTVs Rogue an undercover cop goes dangerously off the rails pursuing a private agenda.
If the titular Spies of Warsaw were under my command, the first question theyd be required to answer would be, why has it taken a quarter of a century and the intervention of a British television network to bring one of Americas best espionage writers to the screen? Since 1988, Alan Furst has turned out a dozen tense, atmospheric spy novels set in Europe during World War II without Hollywood so much as twitching a muscle. The Spies of Warsaw, as his book was titled, is neither the most recent nor the best.
(Which brings us to my second question: Why on earth was the word the deleted from the title? Did a focus group object? Does it make the name too long for Twitter? Is this the first shot in the long-anticipated War on Articles?)
Fursts books all offer the same engaging elements that the BBC makes such excellent use of in this two-part miniseries: The claustrophobic lifeboat atmosphere of a society teetering toward its doom. A mixture of sly intelligence operatives and ordinary people caught up in events beyond their understanding. A continent stalked by totalitarian ideologies on which the middle will not hold.
Perhaps even more important is what they lack the crippling deus ex technico that afflicts so many modern spy thrillers. In Fursts pre-digital world, nobody ever uses his smart phone to redirect a reconnaissance satellite or collect surveillance footage from security cameras. The most cutting-edge technology on display in Spies of Warsaw is an 8mm movie camera.
These spies traffic not in electrons but flesh and blood. Humans some willing players in what Rudyard Kipling called the Great Game of intelligence, some not are seduced or extorted, blackmailed or bribed.
While Spies of Warsaws trappings are drawn from history books, however, its central concept is ripped from the headlines. Its various plots and counterplots revolve around one of historys great intelligence failures: Frances belief, as World War II approached, that the network of bunkers, pillboxes and fortifications known as the Maginot Line, which stretched 200 miles along its border with Germany, would keep Hitlers army at bay and prevent the outbreak of war.
David Tennant ( Doctor Who) stars as Jean Francois Mercier, a newly arrived military attaché at the French embassy in Warsaw. Under his cover as a superficial aristocrat engrossed in the diplomatic party circuit (almost every night, I sip the wine, taste the food, find everyone fascinating, he mocks himself), Mercier is running a network of spies against Germany.
From the reports he receives, Mercier has begun to suspect that Germany has devised new weapons and strategies that will enable it to bypass the Maginot Line and that war is much closer at hand than his government believes. His French intelligence bosses are unimpressed with his theory, which they think is disinformation being passed along to him by his new girlfriend, Anna Skarbek (Janet Montgomery, Black Swan), a League of Nations lawyer who is also seeing an exiled Russian journalist of dubious allegiance. Anna seems nonplussed by the suspicions. They think Im a spy? she asks in amazement. Im a slut.
The covert uses of sexuality are also a big part of the landscape in Rogue, an intriguing crime drama unfortunately available only to subscribers to DirecTVs satellite television service. It stars Thandie Newton ( ER) as Grace Travis, an undercover police detective yanked from her assignment infiltrating a San Francisco gang after her young son is killed in a drive-by shooting.
Her colleagues are convinced that the child was just an unlucky bystander just a senseless tragic accident, as one cop says. It happens all the time. But as news becomes evident suggesting that her son was actually the target of the hit, and that it was related to her police work, Grace goes back undercover without official authorization.
What distinguishes Rogue from a zillion or so other shows about undercover cops is Graces alienation from her fellow officers and even her own family, all of whom think shes nuts. Its not a job, Graces husband caustically observes of her undercover work. Its an addiction. As her so-called real life crumbles, Grace finds that her most genuine relationship, steeped in lies though it may be, is the one with the crime boss (Martin Csokas, The Bourne Supremacy) who may have ordered the killing of her son. As it says in the song, love is a bullet-riddled thing.
