Auto-grow TEXTAREA
Update 6.8.2009: This post is old and somewhat obsolete, but has been kept alive by commentators. Hence I posted an updated version of the script in comments.
Fry recently mentioned a TEXTAREA improvement he found. As you type your text in the box, it grows in length as needed to avoid having to deal with scroll bars.
I liked the idea and went to create my own version. Making it work in Internet Explorer and Firefox was literally a matter of seconds. All you really need to do is compare elements clientHeight with its scrollHeight on key presses and increment rows attribute when former is smaller than later.
But supporting Opera and Safari has proven to be an insurmountable task for now. They simply don't seem to update any property that could reliably be used for measuring the height of the text (but would love to be proven wrong).
You can try a demo, which also doubles as a test environment for reading interesting attributes on the fly (updates are done with mouse over input box).
Random bits of observation:
- scrollHeight is always bigger than clientHeight in Opera. Hence the need to ignore it using its unique fingerprint.
- I didn't try to work out the length of the text by trying to count the number of lines (using \n) and the length of each of them. Proportional fonts prevent any such reasonable guess.
- I didn't try to limit the growth of the box to the boundaries of the screen. I find page scroll bars the least annoying when scroll bars can't be avoided. It's a personal choice though.

Thks!!!. I want an interface like Netvibes…this article was the solution for the Notes section…
I myself is developing one of this also, however,the scroll bar will still show on pressing enter key, therefore, it's better increase the height value when enter key is down(e.keyCode == 13).
In my case, I use style.height instead of cols….
I know this is an ancient post, but I wanted to add that I'm having the same problem with Opera and Konqueror. But there is a way to have the script working for the other browsers without needeing to make a special case to ignore Opera by comparing scrollHeight and offsetHeight rahter than clientHeight.
Old post I know, and you've maybe moved on – but this was the starting point for just what I was looking for. I didn't want to go down the mootools or jquery route because I have a lightweight form deployable over a mobile network and I wanted as little code as possible.
Anyway – the flaw in your demo code is that it does not shrink after you delete text! If you type a lot and then delete it, you end up with an over size empty box.
So the following addition when fix that:
function grow() {
if (this.scrollHeight > this.clientHeight ){
this.rows += 1;
if (this.clientHeight > this.scrollHeight ){
this.rows -= 1;
It's not perfect though!
Also forget to mention:
With a shrinking text box you need to be aware that onkeypress does not register backspace or delete keystrokes. This is obviously an issue because backspacing and deleting text does not fire the shrinking check.
Instead you should use onkeydown which registers all keystrokes.
document.getElementById("grower").onkeydown = grow;
is there a way that a textarea auto-grows in a horizontal way?
@Wilco: Yes. It should be enough to extend grow function with another if statement, where you replace Height with Width (e.g. scrollHeight becomes scrollWidth) and this.rows with this.cols.
Side effect of this would be that textarea would stretch wider until you pressed Enter to skip to new line.
@Kieran: Thanks for your comment. Demo is indeed incomplete.
The answer is simple:
// JavaScript //
textarea = new Object();
textarea.expand = function(input){
input.style.height = 0;
input.style.height = (input.scrollHeight) + 'px';
your text dynamically expands AND skrinks
Sorry…the html was destroyed in my last message…here is is:
<textarea onkeyup="textarea.expand(this);">your text here</textarea>
Here's an AutoGrow plugin I did for MooTools. It works in Safari.
Thanks! I love this very simple and robust solution!
However, I have a few suggestions:
1. Consider replacing your "if" with a "while" loop. Normally this won't matter, but if you cut and paste text into a text-area, or if your web-app already had lots of text in their then the if statement will only allow it to grow by one line instead of growing to fit.
2. Consider using "onkeyup" rather than "onkeypress". When I tested this on Firefox, the scroll bar is there after I press the return key, because of the order in which the client area is updated. "onkeyup" seems to produce cleaner results IMHO.
Thank you for the post!! It is very helpful.
I tested the enhancement that said Kieran Delaneu (to shrink the textarea), it worked in explorer but not in firefox. Do anyone know why? Thanks in advance!!
I'm glad to see increased interest in this old post and there were many suggestions, some of which don't work too well in practice.
Hence I wrote a second version of script, which I tested on IE7, FF3, Opera10 and Safari4, incorporating ideas from comments.
You can find and test it here.
I've made few changes. Textarea should now not only grow, but also shrink and should work fine even if text as been pasted into it.
I would also like to call attention to another change I did, which is that new function returns an event handler for mouseup and is not a handler function as such.
To use you have to instantiate it like I did in example. You can provide a row limit under which it won't shrink, which is 5 by default.
Hopefully you'll find this version of script more useful.
change the function to use while instead of if … works like a charm.
//Auto grows / shrinks a text area based on size of input text
function growTextArea(obj) {
while (obj.scrollHeight > obj.clientHeight) {
obj.rows += 1;
while (obj.clientHeight > obj.scrollHeight) {
obj.rows -= 1;
your text here
lost the text area
<textarea onkeyup= "growTextArea(this);" onclick= "growTextArea(this);" onblur= "this.rows=1;">your text here</textarea>
[...] Auto-grow TEXTAREA (jQuery) [...]
[...] Auto-grow TEXTAREA (jQuery) [...]
Another solution to get it work is creating a hidden div with same styles, and on each keyup – replace \n with (and quote ) in text, put it in that div box and get it's height.
it can fix just by CSS.
here's my code.i thought it up 20 minutes ago.:p
"this.style.height = "" this is the most important part. it fixed the Firefox browser's bug.
CSS: overflow:hidden;
enjoy it~:D
can't see the code!
<textarea onpropertychange="this.style.height = this.scrollHeight + 'px';" oninput="this.style.height = ";this.style.height = this.scrollHeight + 'px';"><⁄textarea>
handy code, ThanKu @ Michael McNally

Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome - Grading & Discussion
View Single Post
December 2 2012, 04:45 AM
Location: United States
Re: Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome - Grading & Discussion
I'm under the impression that the OG chrome toaster centurions from Razor were supposed to be human constructed models, from that generation - they would have been the advanced production versions of the oversized prototype battle robot frame from Caprica. With martial, regal styling to denote them as formally part of a (human controlled) Cylon armed forces.
Likewise, the original "pie plate" basestars seem like they were the original human designed Cylon carrier ships. The tri-star basestar we saw take on Osiris in Blood & Chrome is likely one of the first Cylon-designed ships. Likewise, the centurions seen in these episodes are the first post-toaster centurion models. They drop the pretense of serving human sensibilities and human vanity.
As to just what kind of mind is in these things, it's possible that they're copies of human mindstates, just mass produced. It was almost insinuated in Caprica. The original Graystone industries Cylon "products", both civilian and military models, were possibly stamped out by copying a few master AI chips that had human derived personalities in them. Therefore, while they were never actually real people, all the Cylons fighting in the war have human like intelligence and perhaps their own personal projection of reality. How they see themselves.
The business about feeling pain could be an inevitable side effect of the kind of AIs they are. Perhaps the minds, based on human minds, suffer from virtual neural connections to the components of the robot bodies.
As for wanting to be organic / human, remember that what the Cylons want freedom from is oppression and being used as disposable people. The First Cylon herself wanted to be human again and didn't see the joy in remaining an iron plated robot. It hasn't been revealed just what connection she has, if any, to the rebellion. Could it be that the Cylons, before the arrival of the Five and the manipulation of Cavil, wished to find some form of hybrid form that allowed them to feel some form of humanity while preserving their mechanical advantages?

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell raked in $608,000 from the industry for his 2014 campaign, and now he is putting Keystone XL at the heart of his big polluter agenda. But this isn't just a battle over industry influence. This is a choice about the kind of nation we want to live in. Do we want to live in a country where expert reviews don't matter and industry profits trump our families' health? Do we want to lock ourselves into a fuel that generates 17 percent more climate change pollution than crude oil and makes our children more vulnerable to extreme weather? Or do we want something better?

Pakistan–United Kingdom relations
United Kingdom
Pakistani–British relations are the relations between Pakistan and the United Kingdom. Both Pakistan and the United Kingdom are members of the Commonwealth of Nations[1] and the United Nations.[2]
Until the creation of Pakistan in 1947, it was part of the British Raj.[3] Pakistan became a Dominion within the Commonwealth of Nations, with the British Monarch serving as Monarch of Pakistan (see Dominion of Pakistan). King George VI was king from 1947 until his death in 1952. Elizabeth II then became queen until 1956, when Pakistan became a republic within the Commonwealth of Nations. However the governors-general represented the link between the peoples and the monarchy and did serve as a de facto heads of state (Ceremonial) at various times.
Due to post-independence migration from Pakistan to the United Kingdom, especially during the 1950s and 1960s, between 750,000 and 1 million British people are of Pakistani descent, according to the 2001 census almost 143,000 lived in the capital, London.[4]
The first Military leader Ayub Khan paid a state visit to the United Kingdom in November 1966.[5]
The Queen of the United Kingdom and Head of the Commonwealth, Elizabeth II, paid a state visit to Pakistan in October 1997.[6]
On 28 July 2010 UK Prime Minister David Cameron said that Pakistan promotes the export of terrorism, which worsened the ties between the two countries.[7] However, David Cameron and Asif Ali Zardari later met at David Cameron's country residence Chequers where both agreed to mend ties.[8] At the meeting Cameron spoke of the "unbreakable relationship between Britain and Pakistan based on our mutual interests". While Zardari added that "Storms will come and storms will go and Pakistan and Britain will stand together and face all the difficulties with dignity".[9] Zardari's visit was criticised by much of the Pakistani public. In December 2010, in an attempt to further mend fragile relations, Cameron proposed a state visit to Pakistan after seeing off troops in Afghanistan. His visit, however, was snubbed and rejected by Prime Minister Gillani, who said Pakistan did not want to be 'tagged on' to a visit to Afghanistan.[10]

Recently oDesk's own Henry Walker delved deeply into our wealth of rate trend data and discovered good news for American freelance software developers. America's automobile industry may be flailing, but "Made in the USA" is not a dying dream in the software world.
It seems that while the UK and Bolivia have seen a dramatic decrease in the hourly fees software developers are able to charge, in the United States—despite the recession—software developers are now charging an average of 35% more than they did in 2008.
This phenomenon flies in the face of Softera Director Mikko Kontio's predictions on IBM.com last September, when he stated that the future of software development was essentially going to involve a buyer's demand for faster turnaround and lower cost.
Even earlier last year, in July of 2008, software developer Roy Lawson suggested on his PolkVoice blog that smaller, more skilled software development teams were a better bet in bad economic times. Thus, it could be that companies are simply willing to pay more for skills, as long as they are getting the work done by fewer individuals. In the long run, perhaps this is a savings for the buyer, despite the marked pay raise for the freelancer.
The exact reasons for the incredible rate increase in the face of America's much-beleaguered economy may remain a mystery. However, it's good news for those with software skills. As for the less tech-savvy freelancers among us, it's a sign of hope. Doom and gloom predictions of meager future paychecks don't always turn out to be true.

Canon unveils world's first 50x optical zoom compact camera
INDUSTRY| Sept. 17, 2012, 12:05 p.m.
Canon today unveiled the PowerShot G15 and PowerShot SX50 HS – two new innovative compact cameras that demonstrate Canon's expertise in next-generation lens design. The PowerShot G15 features the brightest lens in a PowerShot G-series model to date, with a new f/1.8-2.8, 5x zoom lens, providing photographers with an extra-wide aperture throughout the camera's entire focal range. The PowerShot SX50 HS is the world's first 50x optical zoom1 compact stills camera, offering ground-breaking power alongside advanced manual control and RAW format support.
Designed for advanced users looking for premium quality, class-leading performance and compact bodies, both PowerShot models feature Canon's renowned imaging technologies, delivering superior quality stills and Full HD movies. Both also feature the acclaimed HS System, which offers outstanding low light performance and exceptionally low noise levels in all conditions. Canon's optical Image Stabilizer with Intelligent IS ensures the sharpest image quality throughout each camera's zoom range, while manual control and RAW file support provides photographers with maximum control over how images are captured and post-processed.
Next-generation lens design
The PowerShot G15 and PowerShot SX50 HS incorporate new, cutting-edge precision Canon lenses that open up a range of creative possibilities. The PowerShot G15 features a super bright f/1.8-2.8 lens, which has been developed using new highly refractive glass with a unique multiple material coating engineered to handle specific wavelengths of light at the nanometre scale. Its 5x opticalzoom provides outstanding versatility, offering an f/1.8 aperture at its 28mm wide-angle, and an f/2.8 aperture at its maximum 140mm focal length. This offers photographers extra freedom to shoot in low light, use fast shutter speeds for freezing motion, or add atmosphere to stills by using a shallower depth of field, throughout the camera's entire zoom range.
For photographers who want to capture detail in distant subjects, the
PowerShot SX50 HS features Canon's most powerful optical zoom in a compact camera to date. A class-leading optical construction features 13 elements, with three UD lenses included in a 10 group optical arrangement – providing exceptional performance throughout the enormous 50x optical zoom range. A newly designed Ultrasonic Motor (USM) and Voice Coil Motor (VCM) ensure fast and near-silent zooming when moving from the 24mm wide angle through to 1200mm[ maximum reach, while ZoomPlus digitally extends the zoom to 100x while maintaining high image quality.
Enhanced Zoom Framing Assist on the PowerShot SX50 HS now includes new Seek and Lockfunctions, which are designed to help photographers locate and lock-on to subjects at the telephoto end of the lens. Users can press a dedicated Seekbutton located on the lens barrel, which makes the lens zoom out to relocate subjects. Once the subject is located users can release the button, with the lens automatically extending back to its telephoto focal length. Additionally, aLock button can also be used to engage a powerful optical IS mode that holds the subject in the frame until the shot is taken.
Pin-sharp clarity with optical Image Stabilizer
Canon's industry-leading optical Image Stabilizer technology counters camera shake in both models, suppressing blur in stills and unsteady movie footage. 4-stop (PowerShot G15) and 4.5-stop (PowerShot SX50 HS) optical Image Stabilizers ensure that shots are sharp, crisp and detailed when shooting at telephoto focal lengths or in low light. Additionally, Intelligent IS automatically detects the shooting situation and applies the most suitable Image Stabilizer mode from seven variables. The
PowerShot SX50 HS also features a new and advanced Dynamic IS mode that reduces the rolling motion style camera shake that typically occurs when movies are recorded whilst walking or moving.
Premium image quality and speed
Both models feature Canon's HS System – a combination of a high-sensitivity 12.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor and powerful DIGIC 5 image processing. The PowerShot G15 features a new Canon 1/1.7-type high-sensitivity CMOS sensor that offers even greater light gathering abilities than its predecessor, resulting in outstanding flexibility during low light shooting.
High ISO shooting at speeds up to ISO 12,800[3] allows the use of fast shutter speeds and faster continuous shooting, even in poor light conditions. Powerful DIGIC 5 processing in each model is also optimised to work seamlessly with the high resolution sensors, keeping image noise to a minimum in all lighting conditions.
Improved Auto Focus (AF) systems on both models make it easy for users to capture sharply-focused stills. The PowerShot G15 AF speed offers exceptional performance – at just 0.17 seconds at the wide-angle – representing a 53% improvement over the PowerShot G12, making it the fastest Canon compact camera ever produced.
High-speed Burst HQ mode, available on both models, also allows the capture of high quality, full resolution shots of fast moving subjects. The PowerShot SX50 HS captures split-second action at 13 shots/second, perfect for wildlife photography, while a burst rate of 10 shots/second on the PowerShot G15 is ideal for capturing fast-paced action.
Creative flexibility with manual control and auto modes
Offering similar levels of manual control to those found on Canon EOS DSLRs, both cameras allow photographers to adjust settings such as aperture, shutter speed, white balance and ISO sensitivity. RAW in both models now includes multi-aspect support, allowing photographers to explore different aspect ratios in post-production.
A range of automatic shooting features also ensure users get the best shot. Smart Auto utilises advanced scene detection technology and selects the most appropriate setting from 58 different variables, while Face ID cleverly recognises pre-registered faces of friends or family and adjusts settings accordingly to ensure they always look their best. Multi-Area White Balance automatically adjusts colour tones in shots captured indoors with different light sources, so shots look more natural.
Designed for serious photographers
The PowerShot G15 features the signature design characteristics of the PowerShot G-series, offering excellent handling for everyday use. Its lightweight, robust aluminium body is approximately 17% smaller than the PowerShot G12, making it an ideal complement to a DSLR camera.
Designed for quick one-handed operation, the PowerShot G15 features a two-level top control dial, a front dial and dedicated Movie Record and shortcut buttons – making it easy for users to access and adjust camera settings between shots. A sharp 920k-dot resolution 7.5 cm (3.0'') PureColor II G screen is ideal for composition and playback, with a wide viewing angle and a tempered glass layer offering enhanced durability and visibility. An optical viewfinder also provides an alternative to live view composition, providing a more traditional through-the-lens shooting experience.
Designed to offer the familiar feel of a DSLR in a more compact form, the PowerShot SX50 HS features an angled design with a grip that feels secure in the hand and is ideal for ultra-zoom shooting. Outstandingly compact for the flexibility of the 50x optical zoom range, the PowerShot SX50 HS offers a control dial for easy access and navigation through system menus, as well as one-touch action buttons including a dedicated Movie Record button. An Electronic Viewfinder, combined with a 7.1cm (2.8'') vari-angle PureColor II VA LCD screen, allows users to frame their shots in their preferred style, andshoot from a range of different angles.
Instant Full HD movies
Perfect for capturing super-sharp video, the PowerShot G15 and the PowerShot SX50 HS also support Full HD (1080p) movie recording at 24fps. The cameras' optical zooms can be utilised during recording, while AF in movies also ensures that subjects remain crisp, clear and in focus. High quality stereo sound is also supported by both models.
Experiment with Canon accessories
Both new PowerShot models are compatible with a wide range of Canon accessories,allowing users to expand their photography kit bag. A hotshoe allows photographers to experiment with creative flash photography using Canon's Speedlite flash range, while Lens Filter Adapters offer compatibility with Canon's range of EOS filters. Both models are compatible with the Remote Switch RS-60E3, perfect for controlling long exposures or shooting at night to reduce camera shake. A new Waterproof Case WP-DC48 is also available for the PowerShot G15 – perfect for users who like to capture stunning marine life.

Hartselle to update plans for Thompson RoadPublished 10:06am Wednesday, November 13, 2013
The City of Hartselle is hiring Johnson and Associates for $318,520 to update plans for the Thompson Road expansion project, which would create a five-lane road from I-65 to U.S. 31.
Dewayne Hellums, director of transportation for the Decatur Area Metropolitan Planning Organization, said $254,816 will paid by the MPO and Hartselle will be required to pay $63,704. He said the current plans are more than a decade old and must be updated to meet new federal highway requirements.
"It could take as much as a year to update the plans," Hellums said. "Then it could take another year or two for the right of way acquisition, depending on whether or not you had to go into eminent domain. Once the right of way acquisition is completed, then you could move utilities and then begin construction on the project."
Hartselle Department of Development Director Jeff Johnson added that Joe Wheeler Electric Cooperative is planning to upgrade the power system to the Morgan Center Business Park.
"They're waiting to see where the new right of way is going to be before they begin construction on the power upgrade," Johnson said.

Palestine most important issue for Muslims: Iran FM
Wed Sep 5, 2012 3:23PM
The Iranian foreign minister noted that the Zionist regime [of Israel] uses money, force, and deception to brainwash people of the world [and] institutionalize its dominance over Palestine.Salehi also referred to the designation of the last Friday of the holy month of Ramadan as the International Quds Day by the late Founder of the Islamic Republic Imam Khomeini, saying that the Islamic Republic has kept the issue of Palestine alive so far. The Iranian foreign minister stated that the Islamic republic has been able to present a model of Islamic resistance to the Islamic countries through the struggles of its people over the past 33 years. Referring to the wave of the Islamic Awakening in North Africa and the Middle East, Salehi said the movement toppled lackey states of the colonialist powers and this issue will help the liberation of the Palestinian people in the near future.

Control Compliance Suite 11.0 asset list
I am wondering if exists a sample template of asset import list per type.
To be more specific. I want to sent to a customer a template in order to complete all the necessary information that a consultant need in order to implement the import of assets to CCS Console. I found a sample template of asset classification but i want a sample template of assets to be imported. for example: --windows assets: an excel with fields to complete (E.G. asset name, asset type, OS version, e.t.c). For unix assets the same, for oracle servers, for sql servers, for databases?
Can anyone Help me Please?
Comments 7 Comments • Jump to latest comment
Thank you Ahumphries for your respond, but actually i didnt mean that. When a customer ask you "what do you want from me to provide you in order to import the assets? (Windows, Unix, SQL, Oracle, Sybase)", what can i give it to him? That's why i am asking if exists a sample table of all the types that CCS can import? Can anyone help me? It seems a dumb questions but its not!
For Windows:
- Machine Name
- Domain Name
* This will get the assets in. After this, you may need more fields depending on what you're using CCS for and how your SM checks are targetted.
For UNIX:
- Machine Name
- IP Address
* This will get the assets in. After this, you may need more fields depending on what you're using CCS for and how your SM checks are targetted.
For database:
Nothing... just scope a SQL/ORA/whatever -DB server- asset import job to already imported Win/UNIX machines... blamo, you get database servers. (then, if you want the DB's, scope another asset import job -importing DB's- to those newly imported DB servers)
Did you configure your Platforms on the CSV Data Collector on your CCS Manager? Go to Settings>System Topology>Map View then right click on your CCS Manager and choose Edit Settings. Click on the CSV Setting in the "Data Collector Sites" and make sure you have entries for the Common platform and for Windows, Unix, etc. After this is done, then do a configuration sync and then try your import again.

I don't know. Three people I know had a shop put them together out of phase, off by a tooth or two. No damaged engines, fortunately. Though the belt can't really be blamed for that. Just that oil change places and tune-up shops think that it's so much easier to change a belt, that even they are competent to do it.Maybe belt-based distributions are easier to put "in phase".

So, maybe the president should have kept his mouth shut? Obama is the one that said Chemical weapons represent a "red Line" that can't be crossed. Now that they have crossed it... it just shows him for the weak, do nothing Commander in Cheif that our enemies know him to be. Thats why no one is afraid of us anymore.

The charms of historic New England make the perfect backdrop for a romantic weekend getaway. Just in time for the most romantic month of the year, seek out comfort and luxury await at inns along the coast, going out of their way to surprise and delight their guests. Whether you want to spend $175 or $600, let warm fireplaces and soothing bottles of wine cure your winter blues at these five cozy retreats.
Ready to drive? America in fall is marvel: cooler weather and colorful foliage spread across the northeast; comfortably sunny days are the norm from Vegas to Miami; and there's perfect hiking weather in the west. Over the past few months, we've highlighted dozens of destinations that are perfect for a road trip, whether you're looking to discover a new beach in Florida, visit a winery in upstate New York, sail on Lake Tahoe, or delve into an American classic — the Grand Canyon. Here are some ideas that we hope will inspire you — and persuade you to fill up the tank and go.
If you're headed to New York City on your next getaway, why not get out on the water? Manhattan is an island, after all, and the city offers a wealth of boat tours and packages that will give you breathtaking views of the skyline and the harbor. Here are three of our favorites.
There's something universally mysterious and appealing about a full moon. Across the globe, it makes its way into legends, folk traditions, and spiritual practices. And now hotels all over are beginning to feel the vibes, too, offering everything from specialty cocktails, to yoga, to sailing under the stars at the end of each lunar cycle. Don't worry, you don't have to believe in werewolves or astrological predictions to enjoy these activities:
One of the great things about river cruise ships and other small vessels is the opportunity to locally source food, beer, and wine. Unlike large cruise ships, which haul aboard tons of frozen foods at the start of each voyage, smaller ships can pick and choose from local and regional farms, breweries, and wineries along their itineraries, buying what they need for a smaller number of guests.
One of the leaders in this concept is the American Queen Steamboat Company, which has just launched its newest river paddlewheeler, the 223-passenger American Empress. Read more
A month ago, we were lamenting the onset of winter, with its shortened days and frigid temperatures. But there are some good things about the season: for example, a steaming bowl of chowder, prepared with fresh local clams, served by the fire as you watch the tide gently rise outside. If every day winter day could be spent like that, we might just stop our seasonal whining altogether. Here's a look at New England's most delicious waterfront restaurants that offer some of the best views around, no matter the season. Read more
Avoid crowded roads and airports this season and hop on a train to exciting destinations in the Northeast. And the best part? You'll save 25 percent when booking at least 14 days in advance. Sample routes for this Amtrak sale include:
- Boston to Providence: $11
- Washington, D.C. to Baltimore: $12
- Philadelphia to Baltimore: $35
- Washington, D.C. to Philadelphia: $38
- New York City to Philadelphia: $40
- New York City to Providence: $47
- Boston to New York City: $49
When the temperatures drop and the chill sets in, travel dreams often involve beaches and bathing suits. However, come winter time, there's no reason why your perfect vacation can't be to a cold-weather destination – in fact, there's nothing better than cozying up by a roaring fire with a hot cocktail in hand and watching the snow fall from the comfortable indoors.
At these five warm and welcoming hotels, you can catch up on your much-needed R&R while doing nothing more than watching their glowing fires. Bonus: someone else gets to sweep out the ashes afterwards.
Forty 1° North, Newport, Rhode Island
While this seaside resort town is often thought of as a summer destination, winter is a great time to experience the charm of New England minus the crowds. At its chicest (and only LEED-certified) hotel, sitting directly on the water, each of the 28 rooms and suites has its own gas fireplace. Should you desire a reclusive retreat, you never have to leave the room. Simply lounge around in the bathrobe and slippers provided by the hotel, order one of their five signature spiked hot chocolates (dark chocolate raspberry, anyone?), and let the fire work its magic.
Fact: Food tastes better during the summer. (Okay, maybe that's just our opinion.) Whether it's a hot dog piled high with chili, a cold scoop of your favorite flavor of ice cream, or a juicy lobster roll, there's something so delicious about summer food. The key, though, is knowing where to get the best of the best. That's where we come in. For Our Ultimate Summer Food Series, we're showing you exactly where to go AND what to get there. We know you're already hungry, so let's get started.
Forget mediocre fireworks displays and blasé barbecues. In these five unusually patriotic cities, Fourth of July festivities provide non-stop entertainment. From ax-throwing competitions in an Oregon timber town, to an annual "Pasties for Patriots" burlesque show in Austin, these places celebrate American independence like none other.
1. St. Pete Beach, FL: In this Tampa-area town, the local TradeWinds Resort dyes nearly 1,000 towels red, white, and blue to create a giant mosaic of the Betsy Ross flag on its beach. A small handful of the resort's younger guests get in on the action, standing in place as the 13 stars on the original flag. Read more
The big city 4th of July celebrations – like the fireworks on the Hudson River in New York City – often get all the attention, but small town America also has a special way of throwing a great birthday party. Around the country there are plenty of smaller communities that have built a stellar reputation around this big day of festivities. From Colorado to Florida, these celebrations have become a gathering place for the community, but they also draw visitors from near and far, who often visit every year to kick off the summer with a bang. So, instead of fighting for a cherished spot to catch the light display in a big city, check out some of our favorite small town 4th of July celebrations that have big character. Read more
Travelers seeking cultural connections might want to roll up their sleeves on an upcoming trip. In big cities and small towns, a variety of hands-on classes are linking curious visitors with local experts. Whether you want to learn about cheesemaking or butchery, there are many opportunities to get your hands dirty and meet locals at the same time.
Many of these classes are focused around food, a pleasure that connects us no matter where we call home. Not only do the following classes teach us something new and provide the framework to connect with locals, but they are also delicious. With every class there is the reward of tasting what you made and feasting with new friends. Here are four of my favorite ways to get your hands dirty around the globe. Read more
What do you think of when wines from the United States come to mind? Our first guess is Napa Valley. But the North American wine industry is much more than just Northern California (some spots on our list even have more history). From New England, all the way south to Texas and west to Colorado, wine regions are popping up all over the place. If you're looking to escape the crowds and the often-jaded (or is it stuck-up?) vibe present in some popular wine destinations, venture outside the box (ever been to an urban winery?) and step into one of these regions where it's not uncommon for the winemaker to serve you him or herself.

We go to the movies (or sit at home on the couch), in hopes that they will transport us somewhere else. Sometimes they succeed and create a believable 2-D world that we can immerse ourselves in for a few hours. Movies have the remarkable power to take us to the middle of the South Pacific, or follow us as we wander the streets of revolutionary France, and even animate our surroundings with the rich green rolling hills of the Scottish highlands.
By: Mike Barish and Liz Webber
You probably have your July 4th plans locked down already – the barbecue, the fireworks, maybe a community parade. But what about the rest of the summer? That's where we come in. There are plenty of free festivals and events taking place across the country this July and August (and even into Labor Day weekend and beyond) that are well worth a spot on your busy social calendar. While we can't include every event out there (here's to you, Grainger County Tomato Festival), we've picked a mix of the coolest and most unique fests in popular summer destinations. From the country's oldest free Shakespeare festival to a Jerry Garcia tribute day, from rock concerts on the beach to movies under the stars, mark your calendars for the best free summer entertainment the U.S. has to offer.

Global warming will cause China to suffer from dire food and drinking water shortages, with water supply imbalances, severe weather events and rising temperatures, according to a report compiled by Chinese scientists under government supervision. The report projects that the cost of growing food will increase, and that grain production in the country of 1.4 billion will decline between 5 and 20 percent by mid-century. Despite the serious potential consequences of unchecked global warming, the report predicts that China's greenhouse gas emissions will only begin to decline around 2030, with significant declines not coming until 2050 or so.
Government Sets Sights on Carbon Caps
China has committed to significant reductions in carbon intensity — a measure of carbon emissions by unit of GDP — aiming to decrease carbon intensity by 40-45 percent by 2020 from 2005 levels. This week the Chinese government recently directed five provinces and two cities to declare and attain overall emissions caps. In addition to setting hard limits, the seven cities and provinces – Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Chongqing, Guangdong, Hubei and Shenzhen – will establish a carbon rights exchange, in effect a carbon trading scheme, similar to the European Emissions Trading Scheme. The plan also calls for the building of low-carbon development zones and residential communities.
No National Target for the U.S.
China is the the world's largest overall emitter of greenhouse gases, followed by the U.S., which has a population one-quarter the size of China's.The U.S. has no national carbon reduction goals, though legislation in California, the Global Warming Solutions Act (AB 32), requires the state to reduce carbon emissions to 1990 levels (427 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent ) by 2020.
Beijing Government Bows to Public Pressure on Dirty Air Numbers
In another sign of changing attitudes, the Beijing government has begun posting more accurate measurements of air quality in the capital, following public pressure and a social media effort spearheaded by the U.S. Embassy. For months citizens have been complaining about the disparity between the official air quality measurements and the readings by meters placed by the US Embassy and broadcast via a Twitter account, @BeijingAir (currently with over 17,000 followers.) The government readings will be adjusted to include smaller particles that were not being counted. On some days, the old government measurements touted healthy air quality even while the city was blanketed in smog.

China is putting an average of one new coal plant online every week. Dirty coal is responsible for 40% of global warming, and is not being banned by greedy governments fast enough and everywhere as it should be. Canada's vicious criminal Harper is on an all-out campaign to destroy any recovery from climate chagne with his filthy tar sands, the dirtiest oil in the world. Harper actually strategizes to block climate change talks and lay massive environmental waste to his own country.
China is beating the U.S. in everything else, so it only follows that they would beat us in acknowledging and addressing climate change. Sigh....
All countries need to work together on this crap-it affects the whole world. Wake up you money hungry bleeps running the country.
The Us gets it about the environment. We have the Clean Water and Air acts. The problem is that the agencies have been headed by pollution ok directors. The polluters have taken over the government and gutted the programs that were set up to protect us. Remember when the Ohio
river caught fire? I do. There has been a tremendous improvement since then. But we are back sliding and need to stop.
If the Chinese get it, although this is just a teeny step, why the hell can't American's?
Don't you just love the prime example we set: "Do as we say, not as we do."
We really need to install carbon caps and get serious about reduction!!! Meaning, we all, and this includes the biggest emitters/polluters! No more ads for the " clean coal" delusion!

Excellent family plan:
TrustedID's family plan covers you, your spouse, your children, your parents, and any other family members living in your household -- all for a flat monthly fee. Many other identity protection services only cover individuals or require an additional fee per child, so TrustedID's family plan could be a great deal depending on the size of your household. You can also choose to pay for a year's subscription upfront, which should save you almost $100 on this top-quality ID protection service.
Facebook privacy monitor:
As part of their IDEssentials™ plan, TrustedID monitors your Facebook profile to determine if any personal information is at risk of being stolen by an identity thief. This isn't something that most other identity theft protection companies offer, and it can be useful to have because many people reveal more personal information on Facebook than they realize. By having your profile monitored, you're able to find out what puts you at risk and take steps to correct it.
Free for 14 days:
TrustedID lets you test out their service for a full two weeks absolutely free, which helps you determine whether or not TrustedID is the right identity theft protection service for you. You do, however, have to provide your credit card information and call to cancel within the trial period to avoid a charge. This free trial is definitely worth taking advantage of if you're on the fence about choosing TrustedID as your identity protection service.
Services for businesses:
In the event of a data breach, TrustedID sets up a dedicated website and hotline number for people to call and stays in contact with the affected customers by email so they know their identities are being monitored. If any of your clients' identities do get stolen, TrustedID's On-Call Protection and Identity Restoration Specialists are there to help them every step of the way. TrustedID also helps you protect your employees' identities by including identity theft protection service as an employee benefit. This also works to the advantage of the business owner because it reduces the chances of employees taking time off to handle identity fraud. TrustedID handles it all for them so they can stay focused and on task.
Doesn't check for fraudulent loans:
TrustedID doesn't look for any unauthorized loans taken out in your name, so if an identity thief tries this tactic, you may not find out until it's too late. TrustedID helps you resolve the situation, but if you prefer a more proactive approach, you should consider other identity protection services. Companies like ID Patrol and Identity Force offer many of the same tools as TrustedID along with loan monitoring.
Credit monitoring for two adults only:
No matter how many adults you have in your household, only two of them are able to view their credit reports and scores and have their credit monitored by TrustedID. The others on your family plan will still have their Social Security numbers, bank accounts, and other personal information monitored, but not their credit. Depending on your household, this may not be an issue at all, but if it is, it could be a good idea to check out some other identity theft protection services or think about signing up for a credit report and monitoring company.

About 50 to 60 percent of patients with melanoma have a mutation in the BRAF gene that drives the growth of their cancer. Most of these patients respond well to two novel agents being studied in clinical trials that inhibit the gene, with remarkable responses that are, unfortunately, almost always limited in duration.
In a study published today as a Priority Report in the peer-reviewed journal Cancer Research, scientists at UCLA's Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center tested a combination of small molecules that may, when used with the BRAF inhibitors, help overcome this drug resistance and extend the lives of those with advanced melanoma.
The team, led by researcher Dr. Roger Lo, focused on testing only small molecules that are already being studied in various phases of clinical trials in the hope of developing a combination treatment that can be studied in patients much more quickly than compounds that aren't yet being tested in humans.
"These molecules we tested are already being studied in patients with other cancers, and some of them have very good toxicity profiles with few side effects," said Lo, a Jonsson Cancer Center researcher and an assistant professor of dermatology and molecular and medical pharmacology. "The idea was to combine some of these with the BRAF inhibitors and come up with something that we don't have to wait years and years to use in patients. We need to find a way to combine these molecules so the cancer cell cannot get around them."
This study builds on the discoveries from a previous study published by Lo last year in the journal Nature. That study found that subsets of melanoma patients with BRAF mutations become resistant to BRAF inhibitors through either a genetic mutation in a gene called NRAS or the overexpression of a cell surface receptor protein.
It had been theorized that BRAF was finding a way around the experimental BRAF inhibitors by developing a secondary mutation in

SuperTux is an open source and cross-platform side-scrolling, jump 'n' run video game that looks and acts similar to the famous Super Mario video game series, only that the main character is Tux the penguin, which is also the official mascot of the Linux kernel project.
Features at a glance
Key features include a basic story, nine enemies, twenty-six levels, beautiful background music and sound effects, OpenGL-based and software rendering modes, configurable keyboard and joystick inputs, as well as eye-candy graphics.
The main menu has been designed in such a way that it acts as a trailer of what you're about to play for the next few days or months. It lets users to start a new game, continue a saved game, access levels that are contributed by the community, enable add-ons, configure options, view credits, and exit the game.
Under the hood and availability
The game has been written entirely in the C++ programming language and uses the PhysicsFS (PhysFS) programming library for virtual file access. It is compatible with the GNU/Linux, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X operating systems.
It is distributed as binary installers for the Windows and Macintosh platforms, as well as a universal source archive for the GNU/Linux platform, allowing users to install the game on any Linux-based operating system.
However, the best way to install the SuperTux game on your favorite Linux distribution is to use the binary packages from the default software repositories. It can run on both 64-bit and 32-bit architectures.
Bottom line
In conclusion, SuperTux is an addictive and fun video game in the style of the highly acclaimed Super Mario games developed by Nintendo. It provides users with numerous hours of fun-filled adventure for all ages and genre, especially on Linux platforms where such games are very rare.

Reviews (31)
5 out of 5 stars Breast Augmentation
Best Thing I Have Ever Done for Myself - Marina Del Ray, CA
Show More Dr. Spring has an incredible bed-side manner. She listened patiently to all of my questions and concerns. I brought in very specific photos and knew exactly what I wanted to look like after the procedure, and she did a remarkable job. I have never felt more beautiful and confident with my body. I never felt rushed or pressured into anything other than exactly what I was comfortable with. 5 stars to Dr. Spring!
5 out of 5 stars Mommy Makeover
Happy Mommy! - Marina Del Rey, CA
Show More I have been to multiple consultations in Newport Beach, Beverly Hills, and Marina Del Rey, and when I met Dr. Spring it felt right from the first few minutes of my consultation. I saw her for a "Mommy Makeover". I have 4 children, and hadn't felt sexy in 16 years. My life has completely changed, and I feel like my younger, sexier self once again! I am beyond thrilled with my results, and had an overall wonderful experience at Marina Plastic Surgery. I have been back to the practice since my surgery and have gotten Botox, fillers, and the "Fraxel laser" for my face to even out my skin tone.
5 out of 5 stars Rhinoplasty
Awesome Doctor and Practice! - Marina Del Rey, CA
5 out of 5 stars Tummy Tuck
57 Year Old Tummy Tuck. Marina Del Rey, CA
Show More I am so happy I picked Dr. Spring. First off, having a woman is the best and I wish there were more around. I just do not want a man working on my body. I did not realize how important that was until the day of surgery when she was drawing on my body. I just had a good gut about her ,and she is young and up on all the new procedures. She performs a no drain tummy tuck and that was very important to me.She also did not seem concerned with my age as I am 57.I am 1 week out and the results are amazing. Her work is incredible and trust me I am a very high maintenance woman .I already look incredible and the surgery was no big deal. After reading all sorts of scary reviews about all the pain of a TT ,i was scared, I feel great a week out.I feel so fortunate that I choose Dr. Spring...she is very dedicated and does this procedure regularly. Her work is flawless as good as it gets.
5 out of 5 stars Facelift
Satisfaction - Marina Del Ray, CA
Show More Dr. Spring is a true artist. She did EXACTLY what I asked of her when she performed my lower face lift. Don't risk going to anyone else but her. DR. Spring and the whole crew at Marina Plastic Surgery is a Slam Dunk!
5 out of 5 stars Laser Hair Removal
Hair Be Gone - Marina Del Ray, CA
Show More Dr. Spring has a wonderful bedside manner. She explained everything to me before she did the treatment.
5 out of 5 stars Breast Augmentation
Excellent Plastic Surgeon! - Marina Del Rey, CA
Show More I was referred to Dr. Spring by a former patient who spoke very highly of her and she lived up to my expectations. I recently had a breast lift and augmentation from Dr. Spring. Dr. Spring and her staff make you feel at ease throughout the process. I was a patient wtih many questions and they were very helpful in getting every question answered. I am extremely happy with my results and would recommend Dr. Spring to anyone looking into breast lifts and / or augmentation.
5 out of 5 stars Cellulaze
Cellulaze/Liposuction - Marina Del Rey, CA
Show More I choose this provider after doing some research.
2 out of 5 stars Breast Lift
Loose Painful Breasts, Nipples Too High, Ruined Forever. - Marina del Rey, CA
Show More seems very attentive and eager to make happy before procedure, once money is paid and you have questions is practically in-competent. also had dermal filler done by a nurse practitioner at their office. I asked for nasal labiol folds to be done, she injected a whole syringe in my upper cheeks that i didn't ask for and then said she had none left for laugh lines, trying to get me to buy another syringe. Egotistical un-caring regular L.A attitude people. I know my body better than someone who looks at it for a few seconds. Doesn't listen when it's not in her best interest.
5 out of 5 stars Botox
Botox Treatment - Marina del Rey, CA
Show More If you are undecided about trying Botox... go to a top professional like Dr Spring for your first visit
There is no recent activity.
