I am using jQuery date picker to display the calendar all over my app. I want to know if I can use it to display the month and year (May 2010) and not the calendar?
Here's a hack (updated with entire .html file):
EDIT jsfiddle for the above example: http://jsfiddle.net/bopperben/DBpJe/
@Ben Koehler, that's prefect! I made a minor modification so that using a single instance of the date picker more than once works as expected. Without this modification the date is parsed incorrectly and the previously selected date is not highlighted.
This code is working flawlessly to me:
The above answers are pretty good. My only complaint is that you can't clear the value once it's been set. Also I prefer the extend-jquery-like-a-plugin approach.
This works perfect for me:
Then invoke like so:
This will solve the problem =) But I wanted the timeFormat yyyy-mm
Only tried in FF4 though
Here's what I came up with. It hides the calendar without needing an extra style block and adds a clear button to deal with the problem of not being able to clear the value once you click on the input. Also works nicely with multiple monthpickers on the same page.
Is it just me or is this not working as it should in IE(8)? The date changes when clicking done, but the datepicker opens up again, until you actually click somewhere in the page to loose focus on the input field...
I'm looking in to solving this.
I had this same need today and found this on github, works with jQueryUI and has month picker in place of days in calendar
I needed a Month/Year picker for two fields (From & To) and when one was chosen the Max/Min was set on the other one...a la picking airline ticket dates. I was having issues setting the max and min...the dates of the other field would get erased. Thanks to several of the above posts...I finally figured it out. You have to set options and dates in a very specific order.
See this fiddle for the full solution: Month/Year Picker @ JSFiddle
Also add this to a style block as mentioned above:
Waht about: http://www.mattkruse.com/javascript/calendarpopup/
Select the month-select example
after digging jQueryUI.com for datepicker, here's my conclusion and answer to your question.
First, I would say no to your question. You can't use jQueryUI datepicker for picking month and year only. It is not supported. It has no callback function for that.
But you can hack it to display only month and and year by using css to hide the days, etc. And I think won't make sense still cause you need the dates to be click in order to pick a date.
I can say you just have to use another datepicker. Like what Roger suggested.
I had the problem of date picker mixed with month picker. I solved it like that.
If anyone want that also for multiple calendars its not very hard to add this functionallity to jquery ui. with minified search for:
add this in front of x
search for
and replace it with
also search for
replace it with
for css you should use:
after that all is done just go to your desired datepicker init functions and provide setting var
Made a couple of refinements to BrianS's nearly perfect response above:
EDIT: One problem left to solve with this is that there is no way to empty the datepicker - clear the field and click away and it repopulates with the selected date.
EDIT2: I have not managed to solve this nicely (i.e. without adding a separate Clear button next to the input), so ended up just using this: https://github.com/thebrowser/jquery.ui.monthpicker - if anyone can get the standard UI one to do it that would be amazing.
You also need this style rule:
If you are looking for a month picker try this http://lucianocosta.info/jquery.mtz.monthpicker/
This worked for me well.
Happy coding
I liked the @user1857829 answer and his "extend-jquery-like-a-plugin approach". I just made a litte modification so that when you change month or year in any way the picker actually writes the date in the field. I found that I'd like that behaviour after using it a bit.
I combined many of above good answers and arrive on this:
This is proved working but facing many bugs so I was forced to patch in several places of datepicker:
patch1: in _showDatepicker : to smooth the hide;
patch2: in _checkOffset: to correct month picker positioning (otherwise when the field is at the bottom of the browser, the offset check is off);
patch3: in onClose of _hideDatepicker: otherwise when closing the date fields will flash for a very short period which is very annoying.
I know the my fix was far from good but for now it's working. Hope it helps.
I know it's a little late response, but I got the same problem a couple of days before and I have came with a nice & smooth solution. First I found this great date picker here
Then I've just updated the CSS class (jquery.calendarPicker.css) that comes with the example like this:
The plugin fires an event DateChanged when you change anything, so it doesn't matter that you are not clicking on a day (and it fits nice as a year and month picker)
Hope it helps!
I also needed a month picker. I made a simple one with year on header and 3 rows of 4 months below. Check it out: Simple monthyear picker with jQuery.
I tried the various solutions provided here and they worked fine if you simply wanted a couple of drop downs.
The best (in appearance etc) 'picker' (https://github.com/thebrowser/jquery.ui.monthpicker) suggested here is basically a copy of an old version of jquery-ui datepicker with the _generateHTML rewritten. However, I found it no longer plays nicely with current jquery-ui (1.10.2) and had other issues (doesn't close on esc, doesn't close on other widget opening, has hardcoded styles).
Rather than attempt to fix that monthpicker and rather than reattempt the same process with the latest datepicker, I went with hooking into the relevant parts of the existing date picker.
This involves overriding:
As this question is a bit old and already well answered, here's only the _selectDay override to show how this was done:
As stated, this is an old question, but I found it useful so wanted to add feedback with an alterantive solution.
for a monthpicker, using JQuery v 1.7.2, I have the following javascript which is doing just that

twilight and vampire diaries
bella and stefan
during new moon
what if bella was in love with another man? what if bella's real name was alecea hale? what if she was rosalie's daughter?
Bella"Alecea" P.O.V
Edward has just left saying he doesn't love me and that I will never be a vampire. It's bad that he doesn't know I already am. You see I'm Rosalie's daughter and my name isn't Bella. It's Alecea Lacey Hale-Salvatore. You see, I had to hide from my creepy brother-in-law, Damon Salvatore. Yes, that Damon Salvatore. I married his brother Stefan when I was 18. "Bella," my "dad" said from downstairs. "Yea," I said walking out of my room. "Your taxi is here," he said. "Ok, thanks," I said walking back to my room to get my bags and cell phone and went back downstairs. "Good luck, Bella," he said. I nodded and went outside and put my bags into the trunk and got into the back seat. "The airport,please," I told the driver. The driver nodded and pulled away from the house.

sounds interesting, please continue!
intresting write more soon
should i do the next chapter in alecea's P.O.V or someone else's?
ok here is the next chapter
rosalie's P.O.V
We should never had left Forks. I could hear Edward growl from upstairs. "Edward, stop it now. We all told Alice not to do the party but she didn't listen, so if you want someone to blame, blame Alice,"I thought to him. I got off the couch i was sitting on and went out the back door and ran into the woods to a cottage i just finished building a few hours ago. No one knew about it, not even Emmett. I went inside and looked at the photos of me and my daughters when they were still young. I sighed. I missed my kids so much. I wonder whatever happened to Alecea. I haven't heard from her in many years. Lacey calls every once in awhile.
good update, can't wait to read your next one!
ok heres the next chapter's in lacey's P.O.V
I'm on my back to Forks. I haven't been there in years, not since everything in the past happened. I was 20 minutes away from the house my mom built when someone attacked me from the side. It was mom's "mate", Emmett Cullen, and his family minis my mom. "Who are you?" Emmett asked. "Names Lacey and a family member of Rosalie Hale's," I said. I saw my mom walk up. "Lacey, why didn't you tell me you were coming?" she asked. "It's Alecea. Her "boyfriend" just left her and take a guess who it was," I said. She gasped and looked at the guy bronze hair and walked up to him and slapped him and looked at me. "Where is she going?" she asked. "Mystic Falls," I said. "Shes going home isn't she?" she asked. I nodded.
next chapter in rosalie's P.O.V
That mind reader better watch out because Alecea is powerful and is contact with the voturi. "Rosalie, who is Alecea?" Edward asked. My daughter but we all know her as Bella Swan," I said annoyed with him. "You ready mom?" Lacey said. I nodded. "Yep, lets go," I said.
I know its short i dont want to give to much away
next chapter in Alecea's P.O.V
I had just got off my plane in Mystic Falls, Virginia and was on my way to my old house. I hadn't seen my husband or my kids in years. I would often wonder about them at night when Edward didn't come over. I hated it when he came over because i had to pretend to be a human when I am more powerful than him, but it is what it is and I have to live with that.
I had only been at my house for 30 minutes when I heard some people come in. It was Stefan, his brother, Damon, and my kids. I walked out of the living room out to the hallway and glared at Damon. "I think I'm gonna set some rules for you Damon," I said giggling. They looked at me. Stefan gasped. "Alecea, your back," he said walking over to me. I smiled at him. "Miss me?" I asked. Stefan nodded.
next chapter in Rosalie's P.O.V
Me and Lacey had just gotten off our plane in Mystic Falls, Virginia when Lacey's phone beeped. I looked at her. "Who is it?" I asked. "It's Stefan. Alecea is setting rules for Damon," she said laughing. I laughed. "That's my girl," I said laughing.
Me and Lacey got to my old house within 20 after we left the airport. I smiled as I saw the living room. "Ah, it's good to be home,"I said.
next chapter in Alecea's P.O.V
I finished giving Damon his rules when my phone rang.I looked at it and laughed. It was was Lacey.I answered it"Yes, sister?"I said giggling. I heard tell me that her and mom were at the old house and I shook my head."Why I am not surprised that you two are here?"I said laughing and hanging up.

Director? I Hardly Knew Her!, You Got Comic Book in My MovieDarren Aronofsky and Wolverine: Made for Each Other?
Everyone has been all aflutter over the rumor that celebrated auteur Darren Aronofsky will direct the second X-Men Origins: Wolverine movie, and now it's confirmed, straight from the Logan's mouth. While Aronofsky has worked with Hugh Jackman before and is arguably the best there is at what he does (and what he does is so, so pretty), many are questioning how the dark director will handle the New Avenger. But Jackman himself is quick to point out that Wolverine is far from cuddly, and we wholeheartedly concur; if you ask us, the franchise could easily go a lot darker. In fact, if you look at Logan's comic book history along side Aronofsky's body of work, you'll see a lot of similarities!
DVDs Unwrapped , I Want My DVD, Scary Monsters & Super Creeps, Separate but Sequel, You Got Comic Book in My MovieI Want My DVD: Tuesday, September 15, 2009
Scary monsters. Super creeps. Sienna Miller. All are represented in this week's new movies on DVD, as wolverines, wolfmen, zombies and overrated actresses stalk the moors. And by moors, we mean Best Buy.
Trailer Trashing, You Got Comic Book in My Movie5 Best (and Worst) Things about the X-Men Origins: Wolverine Trailer
As someone who occasionally has big, bushy muttonchop sideburns, people may think I'm a bit biased towards Wolverine. But while I've read X-Men comic books since junior high, it wasn't until Hugh Jackman played him that I really took to the guy. Jackman gave him a humanity and vulnerability that I could never really see in the comics, which is why I'm psyched that they finally got around to making a solo Wolverine flick, even if it has the clunky title X-Men Origins: Wolverine. The first trailer debuted this past weekend in front of The Day the Earth Stood Still, and while it has less Sabretooth than the earlier San Diego Comic-Con footage did, it still looks awesome. These are the five things I liked most about it, and the five things I liked the least.
Director? I Hardly Knew Her!, Separate but Sequel, You Got Comic Book in My MovieWhy Bryan Singer Should Not Return to the X-Men Franchise
When Bryan Singer left the X-Men film franchise to film the reboot of the Superman, comic fans were torn: on the one hand, he was leaving the characters he'd knocked out of the park twice already, in X-Men and X2: X-Men United, but on the other hand he was hopefully going to make Superman cool again. It's a win-win! Well, cut to a few years later, and it's a lose-lose: the retro throwback Superman Returns is underperforming at the box office and Brett Ratner's X-Men: The Last Stand is underperforming in fans' expectations. With Superman in line to get another, more reboot-y reboot, Singer is no longer involved, and is now talking to Fox about rejoining the X-Men franchise. While a small part of us would love to see a proper sequel to the first two decent X-Men movies, we mostly want him to stay far, far away. Here's why.
Camera... Action Jackson!, Let's Go To The Video!, Lights, Trailer Trashing, Trailers Without Pity, You Got Comic Book in My MovieWolverine: X-Man on Fire
In comics and on the screen, Wolverine has been the most popular X-Man for years. In fact, it could be argued that the first two X-Men movies were de facto Wolverine films. But now he's making it official, with the first movie to actually put his name on the marquee, X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Since his origin is one of the most mysterious (read: sexy) things about him, all signs point to this being a pretty amazing movie. But it's hard to tell from just the trailer, unless you're an über-nerd with a stack of Wolverine comics in your closet. Luckily, nerd-scholars Omar G. and Pablo G. are here to explain everything to us in their latest installment of "Trailers Without Pity"! See the video after the jump.
Separate but Sequel, The Casting Conch, You Got Comic Book in My MovieComic Book News: Wolverine, Jonah Hex and Green Lantern
I come bearing some comic book movie news for Moviefile readers. Back in August, I wrote about the slightly disturbing possibility of a fun-n-bouncy X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Back then, the whispers on the wind were saying that Fox CEO Tim Rothman went so far as to have one of the dark, moody sets repainted to be something altogether brighter. If these rumors were giving you unwanted visions of a cheery Logan, an interview at Coming Soon with producer Lauren Shuler Donner reveals that the movie is actually "darker and sadder and it's kick-ass."
Director? I Hardly Knew Her!, Separate but Sequel, The Biz, You Got Comic Book in My MovieLet Sleeping Wolverines Lie
If there's one thing I hate more than dolls, it's talking dolls. I'm not afraid of them; I just loathe them. For two days in a row, there was news in the Moviefile about talking dolls. And I'm counting those garden gnomes, because, well... shudder. So, clearly the universe hates me. And just to kick me when I'm down, now comes news from Hollywood Elsewhere that the Powers That Be are trying to screw around with X-Men Origins: Wolverine. The problem? The director and the producer are now arguing over the "look" of the movie. Hasn't most of it already been filmed? They showed footage at Comic-Con, for crying out loud, and now they're arguing about how they want it to look? I guess I should just be glad they haven't changed the lead character into a talking Wolverine doll.
With a big box office weekend looming (Paramount hopes) with the opening of Iron Man tomorrow, the stars of other superhero franchises are coming out of the woodwork to promote their own upcoming projects. Dark Horizons has both Hugh Jackman of the X-Men offshoot X-Men Origins: Wolverine, and Brandon Routh of Bryan Singer's new Superman series out seeing who can out-superhero whom on the publicity circuit.
Director? I Hardly Knew Her!, Scary Monsters & Super Creeps, You Got Comic Book in My MovieWolverine and Edward Cullen: More Alike Than You Think
Although it's not officially confirmed yet, word on the street is that Twilight: Eclipse director David Slade will direct Wolverine 2. While Wolverine fans worldwide are probably groaning that the director of a girly vampire film may be put in charge of the rugged anti-hero, they should consider two things: 1. Eclipse was one big vampire-werewolf fight. 2. Logan and Edward Cullen have a lot in common. Check out our long list of similarities between the two.
The Casting Conch, You Got Comic Book in My MovieAfter Avengers: What Marvel Movies Should They Make Next?
With Iron Man 2 whipping everyone into a frenzy, and the promise of Thor and The First Avenger: Captain America for 2011, talk has turned to what Marvel movies to put out after The Avengers in 2012. Or even sooner; after all, the movies they're talking about aren't big blockbusters, they're smaller, less expensive films starring lesser-known Marvel characters. The best-case scenario would be 1998's Blade, which spawned a trilogy; the worst would be The Punisher series, or the straight-to-DVD Man-Thing. Of the thousands of Marvel characters in existence, several are being discussed (including sorcerer supreme Dr. Strange and urban hero Luke Cage) and films are already in the works for shrinking Avenger Ant-Man and the villain-spawn Runaways. But there are a ton of superheroes we'd love to see get the big-screen treatment, perhaps with an A-list hero making a cameo appearance. Here are a few that we think have big-screen potential.

On the farm
My son Henry's 2nd birthday was in the end of July, but we just had his party this weekend. Here are some highlights from the day. Since he has a summer birthday we can have it outside but cross our fingers that the weather cooperates. He loves farm animals and anything related to farms so I decided to have his party at Muscoot Farm. We had beautiful weather and everyone had a blast!
Here are some of my creations for his party. Who wouldn't love a bottle of water complete with a cow sticker?
Here are the party favors.....
Inside were two farm themed books, bubbles with a matching cow label and the cutest crayon roll I have ever seen. I purchased those from an adorable etsy shop called Bows So Sweet. I had to include a picture because I was just in love with these!
And last but certainly not least here are a few of our farm themed cake. The day and the party turned out perfectly!
Happy Birthday Henry!

Milestone Birthday
About a month ago, I helped one of my very good friends put together a birthday party. As a wife and mother, she feels like she is always doing things for everyone but herself so she decided to throw herself a birthday party. She has two boys and wanted to throw a birthday party all in pink. Needless to say we went all out with girlie stuff and of course pink. We tried to achieve this without being cheesy and I think we nailed it. Here are some of my favorite pictures of the decor and paper goods that I created for the occasion! It was an awesome party complete with good food and great friends!
A few of the party favors we created for birthday

For the drinks she served different bottled beverages, but we wanted them to match.
She also had a make your own mimosa and bellini bar so we labeled the juices.
Here is the finished table. I forgot to take a detail picture, but all the food was labeled as well to match the theme. If you look at this photo closely you can see it in the right corner.
Thanks Sabra for letting me part of your special party! It was awesome!

Orange you glad I said orange?
Let me start by saying that I have been a total delinquent. Okay, that being said I REALLY promise this time to post more often.
So here it goes....
I am in love with this bag (in orange) but I don't think I can justify buying another expensive bag, especially since I will probably be sick of it quickly. So here are my substitutes for my cravings for orange...
Now if could just decide which one!!!

Time to get going!!!
If you haven't noticed, I haven't been very good about tracking my progress or anything else. As most of you mommies out there know, having kids is a lot of work. Add in a "real" job and my "dream" job (pretty in paper) and there isn't much time for anything....even sleep. But now it is time to get serious. I am committing myself to post at least once if not twice a week.
I have been inspired by my new favorite blog. Check out oh my handmade goodness. Sara Tams whose etsy site is one of my favorites, is the creator and editor of this great new blog. Here you can find helpful tips and insight from other contributors about starting, running and managing a handmade business. Good Luck to them!!

New Year ..... New Office
I mentioned in an earlier post that I was converting my former oil tank room into my new "office". I am currently stuck sitting at my kitchen counter and have very little work space if any. So I am excited that my "office" is almost complete. I don't even think it can be considered a room, but it will definitely work for me. I am only 5'1" and the ceiling is 6' high, but that means I won't have a lot of company which is what I am looking for. I am also so excited that there will be no toys in the room. As a mom of two young boys and I am constantly stepping over and on toy cars, trains and pointy things. I can't wait to have a space all my own!!! Pictures to follow!!!

50 and fabulous
No, I am not referring to my age, not yet at least (I just turned 31). I just hit 50 sales on my etsy shop. I honestly can't believe it!! I want to thank everyone who has purchased something from me over the last few months. I never really thought this would turn into what it has for me. I just started it as a side project and hoped that it would do what it has. Well so now here we are at 50 sales. I am sure that doesn't seem like a lot but for me it is my first milestone. Now on to 100!!!

Richard Noguera heard the pounding on the front door and went downstairs to let his roommates inside, one of whom was bleeding from a bullet wound to the leg.
He said that later in the evening, Donald Ortez-Lucero and Christopher Strong told him how they shot and killed a 7-month-old baby and the father of the infant in a drug robbery on the other side of town and how one of Ortez-Luceros bullets wound up in Strongs leg.
Noguera once stood as a defendant in the Sept. 14, 2007, shooting death of Sean Aquitania, 21, and his infant son, Sean Jr. The District Attorneys Office dismissed charges on Noguera, 36, five months after they were filed in October 2011. Now, Noguera is a key witness for the prosecution in the murder trial of Ortez-Lucero, 29, and Strong, 30.
On Monday, he testified with a grant of immunity that nothing he said could be used against him.
In his nearly three hours on the witness stand, Noguera delivered just about everything Deputy District Attorney Eric Kindall in his opening statement promised the Sacramento Superior Court jury they would hear from him.
Most important for the prosecution, the reluctant Noguera who looked downward and spoke in single-word or clipped answers testified that Ortez-Lucero and Strong told him on the very day of the Aquitania killings that they committed the shooting.
Defense attorneys are scheduled to cross-examine Noguera on Tuesday in front of Judge Patrick Marlette.
Noguera said he was alone with his girlfriend the afternoon of the killings when Ortez-Lucero and Strong returned to their two-story residence on West River Drive, just off Garden Highway.
He said he took the woman home and then drove Strong to an apartment in the San Mateo area where they met up with Ortez-Lucero. At the apartment, I took apart a handgun for Ortez-Lucero, Noguera testified.
The three of them then doubled back to West River Drive, Noguera testified. He said they went upstairs to watch television in the loft area of the home when they saw a news report of the Aquitania killings.
It was then that Ortez-Lucero and Strong described their involvement, according to Nogueras testimony.
Ortez-Lucero admitted that an infant was shot, by him, saying it was an accident that his Glock .40-caliber semiautomatic pistol discharged when he smacked the father in the head with the gun to rob the house.
There was supposed to be a whole bunch of kilos of cocaine in the house, Noguera said the defendants told him.
Noguera said Strong got the lead from his girlfriend on the house on Country Greens Court in the unincorporated south area. He testified Ortez-Lucero told him the defendant braced Aquitania when the father and the son drove up to the house the same time two suspects arrived to commit the robbery.
He tried to get (Aquitania) out of the car to get access to the house, Noguera testified that Ortez-Lucero told him. According to Noguera, they used the father to gain access into the house.
Witnesses last week said the defendants allowed Aquitania to leave once they got inside. Noguera said Ortez-Lucero and Strong recounted how Aquitania moments later came inside the house mad and went after Chris for his gun. In the struggle for the gun, Strong told Ortez-Lucero to shoot Aquitania, Noguera testified.
Don said that he shot him twice. One of the bullets that killed Aquitania went through his body and struck Strong in the leg, Noguera said they told him.
The same day as the killing, Noguera testified he saw a wallet on the kitchen counter after Ortez-Lucero and Strong came home that had Sean Aquitanias identification in it.
The next day, Noguera said, he was home with Ortez-Lucero, Strong and his girlfriend when a man they knew as Hollywood came to West River Drive with a woman who cut the bullet out of Strongs leg.
I saw her squeeze out the bullet with her finger, Noguera testified.
Noguera said he had rented a car he lent to Ortez-Lucero and Strong that they used to pull off the robbery. He said it was stained with Strongs blood on the passenger side and that he cleaned it before returning the car three days after the shooting.
He said he never told law enforcement about his roommates because I was scared. He knew them to keep guns and bulletproof vests around the house, Noguera testified.
Sacramento County sheriffs detectives arrested Noguera based on statements they received from an ex-girlfriend of his who said he bragged about having committed the killings while he was beating her up.
Charges were dismissed against him after he gave multiple statements to investigators that helped them establish the case against Ortez-Lucero and Strong.
Noguera testified Monday I was drunk and in a rage the time he beat up the woman because he believed she was having an affair behind his back at the same time he admittedly cheated on her.
He told the jury he took credit for the killing to terrorize her and to cause fear. He was convicted in the case of threatening to injure the woman and was sentenced to a year in county jail.

GRANT PARISH, La. - They broke ground in March, and now the Jena Choctaw casino in Grant Parish is more than halfway complete.
News Channel 5's Kathleen Witte stopped by the construction site today to find out when Cenla can start enjoying the newest casino in town.
For twelve years, this sign that reads "Future Home of Jena Choctaw Casino" has been sitting next to Highway 167 in Grant Parish.
And in January, the promise of that sign will finally be fulfilled.
Gloria Boatwright, project manager: "It's starting to look like a casino. And right now we're in the phase where every day you can markedly see a difference."
The 46-thousand square feet of construction may not look like much now, but the crew says it's more than halfway finished.
This is the parking lot...and here's the front entrance...the main casino floor...and of course, the buffet.
Boatwright: "Oh it's fantastic. It's fantastic for the tribe. It's fantastic for the people who are out here working on it, because of the accomplishment, and it'll be great for Grant Parish."
Ricky Jackson and the rest of tribal council say they're building the casino on Choctaw trust land, which means the casino itself cannot be taxed by the parish. But they say that doesn't mean the parish won't benefit.
Ricky Jackson, Jena band of Choctaw Indian Tribal Council: "For the past 25 to 30 years, there's really nothing that has come into Grant Parish. We want to work together with Grant Parish, establish an economic base. If we work together as a team, we can develop who knows what."
And with those new businesses come new jobs. And it all starts inside the casino.
Boatwright: "We're going to provide jobs. There will be 300 jobs out here. Everything from housekeeping to the cash operations to the management."
So for now, this sign remains. But come January, it will be replaced by a 25-foot marquee--and a brand new casino to go with it.
Project managers say this is only the first phase. They say, we'll be seeing a casino expansion and a hotel within ten years.

HINGHAM, Mass. (MyFoxBoston.com) -- Hingham police are looking for two men who ransacked a Prospect Street home Thursday.
Investigators say the homeowner arrived back at her residence at about 1:15 p.m. to find a strange car parked in her driveway. When she entered the home, she found two men inside.
Both men ran toward the back of the house carrying bags. They ran out the back porch and jumped approximately 10 to 15 feet down to the ground while carrying the bags.
The suspects made it back to the car in the drive way and took off. The homeowner described the car as a black sedan.
Investigators believe the men entered the home by cutting a front screen and lifting an unlocked window. The men went through the bedrooms, taking jewelry and a pillow case. The residents were trying to determine if any other items were taken from the home Thursday night.
Hingham police say anyone who finds a suspicious car parked at or near their home should call 911 and allow an officer to check out the house.
Anyone with information regarding the Prospect Street burglary is asked to call Det. Robert Mansfield at 781-749-1212.

Flip-flop weather comes early in Palm Springs. Ace has collaborated with Havaianas to launch a limited edition sandal for the summer, in the original colorway from 1962. The story goes that the sandals were originally black on top with a white sole. But the cool kids in Rio were flipping the sandals upside down to put their twist on it. Ace Havaianas are a homage to putting a twist on classics. They're exclusive to Ace, and Palm Springs is the only place you can get a pair on the West Coast, and one of only two in the US — the other is Opening Ceremony at Ace New York. The Palm Springs sandals bear a pin modeled after Ace Palm Springs' signature coyote in pearls, which lives in a diorama in the lobby.
Alex Calderwood, Ace founder, says "Havaianas embodies the idea of an instant classic. It's a product that is straight forward, comfortable, has stood the test of time, and has just as much relevance today as it did in Brazil back in 1962. We can only hope that Ace Hotel will have such staying power." You can buy a pair straight from the minibar before heading out to the pool for the day. Or call the hotel if you'd like to get a pair sent to you.
We're running a quick-quick deal through the end of April if you want to just go pick up a pair on your own. $79 tonight and tomorrow, $89 Friday. Call to book.

Please tell me where else in the world there is even a hint of Libertarianism besides historically white countries. The Neo-Cons say that Hispanics are natural conservatives, so where are the conservative governments in Hispanic countries? Face reality, the countries that people come from show what they are bringing to America.

I must admit
I'm pretty disturbed by this whole Seafarers thing, so disturbed in fact that I am writing my first personal post on my photography blog (after 2.5 years of avoiding it). I genuinely thought I had established a friendship with her. I even planned to visit her in Boston (or Iceland) one day. I cling to the idea that people are inherently good like someone lost at sea clings to driftwood. This now seems pathetic. Hopefully the number of emotional wounds left in her wake are limited.
I don't know what she could have possibly gained from this charade. But it has definitely instilled in me a new level of distrust. Despite these feelings, I send each of you love and a hug. May we all work towards being more authentic and genuine individuals.

24 hours later and my account has been restored and my Diablo 3 characters rolled back to before the compromise. Unfortunately my entire Battle.net balance was used to purchase World of Warcraft game time, which has not been returned to me. I reopened the support ticket and asked them to look into this, so we'll see what happens.
Along with a half-dozen automatically generated Blizzard emails telling me my account has been locked, a name change forced, etc, I got this canned response:
This is the latest response from Customer Support:
Greetings mate,
My name is Leynril and I hope this message finds you well. I'm sorry that we couldn't have a conversation while you were online (it's not possible with D3), but I just wanted to let you know that I got your ticket about your reported compromise, and I have taken an in-depth look into this for you.

As someone deeply familiar with Sen. Lisa Murkowski's leadership on the "Critical Minerals Policy Act," John Kemp's recent Reuters column criticizing the bill struck me as a cynically misguided reaction to her important work. Sen. Murkowski introduced the legislation in order to, as she put it, "keep the United States competitive and begin the process of modernizing our federal mineral policies." This is a laudable goal and an important process, particularly as our foreign reliance increases for materials needed to build semiconductors, skyscrapers, and everything in between.
In Kemp's view, however, the bill "deserves to die" because it would authorize new federal funding that he views as a sop to "special interests." With all due respect, he's wrong.
Murkowski's legislation is one of the few examples of real bipartisan cooperation amid the dysfunction of Washington, having attracted nine Republican and nine Democrat co-sponsors.
The Critical Minerals Policy Act takes commonsense steps to facilitate increased mineral production here at home. Importantly, the bill authorizes funding to improve the United States' permitting process, which industry analysts at Behre Dolbear have ranked as worst in the world at getting applicants a timely "yes" or "no" response. Such delays strand capital and have contributed to an ongoing decline in America's share of private investment in exploration, which dropped from 10 percent in 2000 to 7 percent in 2013 according to the SNL Metals Economics Group. In response, the bill brings some needed accountability and resources to the federal agencies considering these permit applications.
The bill also recognizes the importance of geologic surveys, which can jump-start mining activity. The supply chains for mineral commodities begin with entrepreneurial geologists who go out and find this stuff. Sometimes they do it on their own; other times they use government data to get going. Murkowski's bill places a particular emphasis on the latter, and it should. Up north, the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada has found that every public dollar spent on geologic data generates approximately $5 in privately-funded exploration work. That's a pretty good rate of return, even for those who balk at treating government spending as an investment.

KAUKAUNA, WI (WTAQ) - The Kaukauna Catholic School System says they're transitioning to Catholic classical curriculum starting this fall.
"We're hoping this enhanced curriculum will draw many new students to the Kaukauna Catholic School System," says Bishop David Ricken of the Catholic Diocese of Green Bay. "The new model will further integrate our Faith in Jesus Christ into all the academic subjects in a very intentional way."
The transition to the classical model includes:
- Historical Emphasis/Integrated Curriculum -- History presented with Christ as the center and the key understanding time. Students will become well versed in the great ideas of Western civilization: democracy, science, art and literature, all while learning how these ideas unify our culture.
- Age-Appropriate Methods -- Students will learn logic and reasoning skills while delving deeper into the information they had mastered in earlier grades. Students will learn how to think critically, debate and reason.
- Emphasis on Language -- There will be a strong emphasis on reading, writing, phonics and vocabulary. Students will read the great literature of Western civilization and learn foreign languages at earlier levels.
- Original Sources -- Students will read original sources, not just interpretations through textbooks. For example, rather than reading about the "Declaration of Independence," or the "Constitution," they will read and study the actual documents.
"One of the things we found is the high SAT scores, so that's the first thing that excited me about it was that this is an education that works," says Fr. Tom Pomeroy of Holy Cross Parish. "This is very important to our school's mission of forming disciples in Jesus Christ while providing an excellence in education."
These enhancements in curriculum will be phased in over several years, as teachers introduce the methods and content into their classrooms. In the first year, the focus will be on Faith integration. Some KCSS teachers will attend a Catholic classical conference this summer.
Officials say demand from parents is part of the reason for this move. Currently, there are nearly 200 students in the Kaukauna Catholic School System, which is supported by the parishes of Holy Cross and St. Katherine Drexel in Kaukauna.

It was a very bad day; she lost her job, rent was due, and a stranger ruined her new silk skirt. Things begin to look up when she becomes a part of a scientific study that pays well, and gets a commission to paint a portrait. That is, until she meets her subject, the stranger from her bad day. In IRRESISTIBLE? (4.5), Stephanie Bond delivers laugh-out-loud humor with this oftentimes bawdy comedy.
