Though coveting thy neighbor's wife or underground sprinkler system is beyond the pale, longing for a mouthful of his cuisine is an understandable desire. Today's Groupon satisfies desires to eat from the table of our nation's trans-Pacific neighbors: for $25, you get $50 worth of authentic-Russian cuisine at Russia House in Dupont Circle.
At Russia House, offerings are kept to a delicious, yet stoically regimented minimum, offset by a friendly staff and a cozy and inviting interior. Small plates include dishes such as duck rillette, slow-cooked duck leg atop an arugula-red onion salad on goat cheese-potato puree with a balsamic duck glace ($12), and the perennial favorite, pelmini, featuring veal- and pork-filled pasta pillows with a marsala-mushroom cream ($12). The larger and, by definition, more-filling plates range from familiar chicken Kiev, butter-chive-stuffed chicken breast served with mashed potatoes, sautéed carrots, and squash ($23), to the authentic zapechionaya baranina, or roasted lamb rack served with a black-bread pudding, braised chard, red pepper, and a rosemary-shallot sauce ($30). Russia House also boasts an awe-inspiring caviar selection, which includes colorful salty roe from golden osetra, American sturgeon, and the top-of-the-line beluga—all served with buckwheat blini pancakes, chopped onion, egg, and crème fraîche. Finish your meal with one of its rotating dessert selections, such as flourless chocolate cake or houseless house cheesecake ($8 all).
A trip to Russia House would be incomplete without sampling some of the impressively obscure vodkas, beers, and wines sourced from around the eight corners of the globe. Surprise your mouth or an unworldly food tester with selective sips of bitter-pepper or blood-orange vodka, Baltika golden lager, or Georgian icewine. Strap on your international-espionage shoes, be sure that you're not being followed, and use the information coded in today's Groupon to get your borscht on.
Russia House was an editor's pick in the Washington Post, more than 200 Yelpers give it a four-star average, and OpenTable reviewers give it a 4.1-star average:
- Unpredictable crowds can make Russia House feel like one of the exotic dens from a vintage James Bond paperback. Sumptuously decorated for an oligarch, it certainly has the right look: red silk damask on the walls, flickering chandeliers, blocks of richly veined dark green marble set into the woodwork and used as accents above the bar. – Fritz Hahn, Washington Post
- I have the Chicken Kiev 9one of the staples) [sic] and ate every morsel, it was so good. – Luashawnna M., Yelp, 2/3/2011
Russia House
Though they hail from different corners of the world, business partners Aaron McGovern and Arturas Vorobjovas and their shared passion for food begat Russia House, a tribute to the czarist-era dinner table. Raised in Lithuania on his father's traditional Russian recipes, Arturas works with executive chef Andrew LaPorta to pack Russia House's bill of fare with authentic offerings such as line-caught sturgeon, plump pelmini dumplings, and a selection of caviar. These rich Russian staples grace white tablecloths and elegant place settings inside Russia House's stately interior. Here, mirrors reflect light that bursts through large windows to reveal which guests have packed their cheeks with leftovers. In the upstairs lounges, plush booths cradle diners and occasional live piano music permeates the airwaves.

"Amazing Martinis!"
"Russia House is an interesting place with great food, but normally would be a bit pricey for me. I have used a Groupon there a couple of times now (1st one ~2 years ago)."
"Cozy restaurant bar with mainly Russian staff. Had an awesome time with my friends there. Would go back."

"We do intend to announce a new product at the Worldwide Invitational next month in Korea, and we appreciate the enthusiasm and interest in getting an advance look at what that will be, but players will have to wait until May 19th to find out more," read a statement that a Blizzard representative provided to DailyTech.
It could be the next iteration of Starcraft or Diablo, or perhaps a new series altogether. Either way, Blizzard has proven themselves to be a quality developer and I'm eager to see what they have in store.

I have been thinking about doing my own prints actually although i haven't yet fully justified doing so. Setting up a darkroom and buying all the equipment needed etc would take time and money, and it's so easy just do develop the negatives and scan and digitally PP.
I'll look into it though as i think it'll also help with the learning experience of getting a good photograph straight out of the camera, that's one reason i went film as i was shooting for Scotland with a digital and getting mediocre results lol.
This hobby is getting expensive!

212 Men by Carolina Herrera
This cologne is very famous here in Brazil. It's very common to find or to hear about guys wearing this fragrance. Maybe this is due the fact that 212 Men lasts long and can be used in many ocassions (during summer or winter, day or night, formal or casual events). I love it. 5 stars!

ABO-incompatibility did not predict mortality. The statistical analysis was adjusted for the different size cohorts, assuring statistical significance.
Survival in both groups reached 75 percent at three years after transplantation. Infants with congenital heart disease (defects existing since birth) represent the predominant group requiring transplantation.
In the study, 71 percent of the incompatible recipients had some form of structural heart disease compared to 66 percent in the compatible group.
Cardiomyopathies, disorders of the heart muscle, represent a second condition requiring transplantation in infants.
Heart function deteriorates until the only option is transplantation. In the study, 11 percent of the incompatible recipients had cardiomyopathy versus 29 percent in the compatible group.
One key reason incompatible transplantation works in infants is the role of antibodies known as isohemagglutinins.
Until age 12 to 14 months, infants have immature immune systems with little or no production of these antibodies. That means they will not have pre-formed antibodies against the donor heart, lowering the risk of rejection.
Vricella said the most challenging transplants are in infants born with structural heart disease, congenital heart anomalies. These infants are being transplanted as a re-operation, which involves conversion of their anatomy to normal so that they can accommodate the donor heart, he said.
Vricella said that successful infant heart transplantation means an infant can go home and have a great quality of life.

UK-based Association for International Cancer Research this week announced it will fund a Griffith University project led by Dr Joe Tiralongo to further develop a potential anti-cancer treatment that had shown promising results in lab tests.
The grant will enable the team to test a range of new 'designer' compounds on tumours in living cells.
Research leader Dr Joe Tiralongo of Griffith's Institute for Glycomics, Queensland said the compounds target a unique sugar, sialic acid, believed to give cancer cells their deadly ability to spread through the body.
"A significant number of studies have shown a consistent link between the amount of the sugar sialic acid on the surface of cancer cells, and the ability of that cancer to metastasise, or spread to other parts of the body," he said.
Sialic acid is found in cells throughout the body, giving, for example, saliva its characteristic stickiness, but it is abnormally expressed on cancer cells.
"It exists in much greater numbers on the surface of cancer cells. You could almost describe it as a 'glue' that helps cancer cells bond to other cells throughout the body," Dr Tiralongo said.
"We are working to tailor an 'inhibitor' that will block the mechanism that enables cancer cells to express this sugar on its surface."
"If progression can be slowed and the cancer contained to one part of the body, it becomes a lot easier to treat with surgery."
He said while colon cancer was the primary target, the team would also screen inhibitors against other aggressive cancers, including breast cancer and neuroblastoma.
"These cancers all over-express sialic acid, so in theory what works for one cancer could work for others.
Colon cancer is one of the most dangerous types of cancer and the second most common cause of death from cancer, with one in 18 Australian men and one in 26 women affected.

moreHeat transfer is important in food processing. In the unit operations several issues of steady and unsteady heat transfer occur. So for instance heat transfer processes are important for the hygienic, nutritional and sensory quality of the food product. The present edited book starts with a review of ongoing activities in a broad perspective. Then some specific methods of modeling and analysis are presented. also topics like freezing and thawing, microwave heating, aseptic processing and modeling approaches for ohmic heating, frying and baking are presented. All topics treated have significant relevance in the food processing and its likely that the book will be a welcomed contribution. The chapters in this book deal mainly with: heat transfer applications; methods that have considerable physical property variations with temperature; methods not yet widely spread in the food industry; or methods that are less developed in the food engineering literature. The application of numerical methods has received special attention with a separate chapter as well as emphasis in almost every chapter. A chapter on artificial neural networks (ANN) has also been included since ANN is a promising alternative tool to conventional methods for modeling, optimization, etc in cases where a clear relationship between the variables is not known, or the system is too complex to be modeled with conventional mathematical methods. less

Dear Member,
This is to alert you regarding the union's efforts to organize performers working in commercials for Droga5, a non-union digital advertising agency. Droga5 is an award-winning digital agency that executes high-profile projects for major advertisers, work that would typically otherwise be done through signatory agencies under the SAG-AFTRA Commercials Contract. We are concerned that Droga5 has done at least some of this work by using union performers on a non-union basis and will be monitoring carefully against that possibility.

© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
LAWRENCEVILLE - After three hours of conversation Monday, two members of an advisory panel left with dramatically different ideas about the possibility of developer impact fees in the county.Bob Griggs said the Department of Public Utilities' use of system development charges to pay for upgrades to the water and sewer system proved that developers could pay for infrastructure needed for development. But another member, Tip Cape, who frequently pays the charges as an executive for Bowen Family Homes, said switching to impact fees would keep the county from charging hundreds of thousands of dollars to operate developer-built sewage pumping stations. "We are already charging fees for stuff we couldn't charge impact fees for," he said. It is against Georgia law to use impact fees for government operations, only infrastructure. "It's going to be a challenge to figure out the advantages and disadvantages." During Monday's meeting, the third of a panel appointed by the Board of Commissioners to consider the controversial impact fee idea, county department staff briefed members on how the fees could fit into the county's revenue stream. The Department of Public Utilities is the only department charging developers - at a rate of about $3,600 a house - for water and sewer upgrades. Department Director Frank Stephens said the charges don't conform with impact fee laws exactly but act similarly. Griggs, a panelist who has pushed for the fees for years, said he thought the department served as an example. "I'm sure the water and sewer folks wouldn't tell you it's not working," he said. For other departments, the idea is more complicated. Transportation Director Brian Allen said the fees could not be used to upgrade intersections that are already congested, and because fees have to be divided into districts and spent in the area they are collected, the county could have problems for roads that cross district lines. Even Griggs admits the fees likely won't work for the Police Department, which only has five precincts and isn't likely to add more because police are on the street more than they are within the precinct. But he said the Fire Department could take advantage of a fee. Assistant Chief Bob Post said the county builds a new station when response times reach more than eight minutes either because of distance, traffic or a high-flow of calls. That department, as well as the police, transportation, library and parks and recreation agencies, use money from a penny sales tax to fund building projects today. "I'm still learning," said another panelist Mike Levengood. "This was very helpful."

Swan CleanersRead MoreEleanor and Andre Gelpi opened the first Swan Cleaners in 1937. It was a neighborhood store then, and that hasn't changed—only today, instead of just one family owned and operated location, there are numerous Swan Cleaners sprinkled around the greater Columbus area. Most of those offer same day dry cleaning and next day shirt laundering, and many even feature a drive-thru to help busy professionals and marathon runners get on with their days. Inside each Swan Cleaners location, staff members utilize up-to-date dry-cleaning and pressing equipment to complete jobs thoroughly and efficiently. In fact, all of the company's staff members learn the craft and science behind fabric care through specialized training courses when they're hired. Beyond its own business practices, Swan Cleaners has also always been prudent about its impact on the community, which is why it still upholds its tradition of cleaning American flags for free as well as holding a title of certified environmental dry cleaner.1812 W 5th AveColumbus, OH US
The Laptop GuyRead MoreBig things can grow from small beginnings. Just ask Zoe, the cartoon (and real) canine mascot of The Laptop Guy.

His dedication to his customers and Zoe's playful nature brought in more and more customers, until the repair and sales shop could no longer fit next to the action-figure aisle. More than 10 years later, The Laptop Guy has grown into a multi-store business that solves customers' smartphone, Apple, Android, and PC issues with online support, in-house repairs, or onsite troubleshooting. Cartoon Zoe and her owner still greet customers on the company's website, and the real-life versions can be found in one of the repair shops on any given day.980 W 5th Ave.grandview, OH US

ROCKIES WORLD SERIES TIX TO BE ONLY OFFERED ONLINE: Good news, Colorado baseball fans! No more standing in the chill of a mid-October Rocky Mountain morning to get a chance at World Series seats:
The DENVER BUSINESS JOURNAL reports that all tickets for the Rockies' remaining home games will only be available online at the team's web site.
This is a change from the team's previous policy of selling additional stubs at the Coors Field box office and Rockies Dugout Stores. The club has also disconnected Series sales over the phone.
So get your mouses manicured and clicking fingers flexing, as online orders will be taken starting at 10 a.m. MST on October 22. Only four tickets to a customer, please.
Rockies president Keli McGregor said that the new policy would be fairer to all fans who are hoping to snag some special seats: "We came to the conclusion that no other method of ticket distribution is quicker or more efficient than the Internet."

Israel offers agriculture technology to Goa
Israel is hopeful of setting up a centre of excellence in Goa to aid the state vis a vis technological issues related to agriculture, Israel's consul general in Mumbai Davik Akov said here Saturday.
"We have about 20 centres of excellence of Israeli technology all over India. We hope to have one in Goa. We are starting to work on the prospects of that," Akov told IANS on the sidelines of the inauguration of an Israeli film festival here.
"We believe that Israeli technology can assist certain areas of interest to Goa, like agriculture and maybe once we look in-depth, we can start looking at other areas of co-operation. We are looking forward to other areas of co-operation between Israel and Goa," he said.

While ongoing studies explore pesticide-based approaches to control D. suzukii, the new research from NC State should help scientists and farmers with other control options.
For example, the study found that D. suzukii are more likely to infest certain varieties of raspberries and blackberries. This means growers may be able to limit crop damage by planting more of the varieties that D. suzukii tend to avoid. Similarly, this information allows farmers to focus pesticide treatment on varieties that are most susceptible to infestation.
The three-year study evaluated D. suzukii impacts in commercial blackberry and raspberry crops in North Carolina, and also encompassed laboratory experiments to help researchers determine which characteristics made fruits more likely to be infested. The work was supported by the Southern Region Small Fruit Consortium, North Carolina Tobacco Trust Fund Commission, North Carolina Department of Food and Agriculture, U.S. Department of Agriculture and North Carolina Blueberry Council.

Dose escalation is continuing on both the 3-week, 3-hour infusion schedule (currently at 25 mg/m2) and on the 4-week, 3-hour infusion schedule (currently at 20 mg/m2).
A second Phase 1 trial is currently exploring a single 3-hour infusion every 3 weeks (36-42 mg/m2). In this trial partial responses have been observed in patients with pancreatic and ovarian cancers and signs of activity in approximately 25% of patients, including a partial response in a heavily-pretreated patient with ovarian cancer (6 prior therapies; 31% tumor shrinkage by RECIST; 53.7% CA125 decline at end of study) and stable disease in patients with pancreatic, ovarian, non-small cell lung cancers and sarcomas.
Roche and Kosan plan to advance KOS-1584/R1645 into Phase 2 trials in the second half of 2007. The final dose and schedules for the Phase 2 trials will be based on clinical activity, dose intensity, side effect profile and schedule compatibility with established chemotherapy regimens.

Sender One is an unparralled player in the indoor rock climbing industry, boasting the tallest walls and largest footprint, allowing for the most climbing terrain in an indoor setting amongst their competitors. In June of 2013, Greg Pieratt, principal with Lee & Associates – North San Diego County represented Sender One in opening their first location in Santa Ana, California. The incredible buzz and success of the first location was a springboard to continue expansion and, in April of 2014, Pieratt successfully represented Sender One in locating and negotiating the Hindry property.
"We were proud to reach the finish line on this lease given all the obstacles we had to overcome," stated Greg Pieratt. "Sender One incorporates 50 foot climbing walls which require the roof of the building to come off and be raised to 60 feet. This is always a substantial hurdle to overcome with a landlord and we are excited our partnership with this landlord group came together to allow for the vision." The height of the building also triggered the need for FAA approval given the proximity to LAX.

Abstract. Purpose: To evaluate the long-term visual outcome after early surgery of bilateral dense congenital cataracts, aphakic correction with glasses and secondary intraocular lens (IOL) implantation around 2 years of age. Methods: The medical records of paediatric patients who underwent cataract extraction, aphakic correction and secondary IOL implantation from 1993 to 2004 at Seoul National University Children's Hospital were reviewed retrospectively. Age at secondary IOL implantation, axial length (AL), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refractive error, ocular alignment, stereopsis, and postoperative ocular complications were recorded. Results: Thirty-seven paediatric bilateral pseudophakic patients were identified with a mean follow-up period of 81.4 months. Best corrected visual acuity of 20/40 or better were attained in 44.0% of eyes, and the median BCVA was 20/50. Preoperative factors associated with poor visual prognosis included cataract surgery after 8 weeks of age, interocular AL difference of 0.5 mm or more, and glaucoma. Amblyopic eyes showed more myopic change compared to fellow eyes. Good or moderate binocular function was achieved in 18.9% of all patients. Incidences of strabismus, glaucoma, posterior capsular opacity formation were 46.0%, 32.4% and 4.0%, respectively. Conclusion: Good postoperative BCVA and binocular function were achieved in most healthy children with bilateral dense congenital cataract and no posterior segment pathology. Early cataract surgery, aphakic correction with glasses and secondary IOL implantation around 2 years of age appears to be appropriate methods.

I have never accepted USD in payment. I do sometimes get customers pay me in USD by mistake after they do their own conversion, but this is promptly refunded. There have been the odd occasion where i they have done this and i accepted it, as i had something to pay for in USD myself.
I always ask that payments are made in GBP, otherwise i have to pay further fee's to change it back to GBP as commtrd says below.
When you make payment through PayPal in GBP, it should tell you what it will be costing you in USD before you submit the payment.

Natural gas is often seen as a bridge to a more sustainable energy future since it emits less carbon dioxide during combustion than other fossil fuels. But according to a recent study published in the journal Science, the total impact of switching to natural gas depends heavily on methane leakage during the natural gas life cycle, which is consistently underestimated. This suggests that more can be done to reduce methane emissions and to improve measurement tools which help inform policy choices.
"Recent life cycle assessments generally agree that replacing coal with natural gas has climate benefits," said Garvin Heath, a senior scientist at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and a lead author of the report. "Our findings show that natural gas can be a bridge to a sustainable energy future, but that bridge must be traversed carefully. Current evidence suggests leakages may be larger than official estimates, so diligence will be required to ensure that leakage rates are actually low enough to achieve sustainability goals."
The study, "Methane Leaks from North American Natural Gas Systems," presents a first effort to systematically compare North American emissions estimates at scales ranging from device-level to continental atmospheric studies.
Among other key findings of the research:
"While we found that official inventories tend to under-estimate total methane leakage, leakage rates are unlikely to be high enough to undermine the climate benefits of gas versus coal," said Doug Arent, executive director of the Joint Institute for Strategic Energy Analysis and a co-author to the study.

Baseball Drops Twin Bill at SIU
CARBONDALE, Ill. – The Creighton baseball team dropped both games of a doubleheader at Southern Illinois on Saturday, falling 4-0 in game one before dropping game two 7-6. Creighton falls to 15-19 overall, 2-9 in MVC play.
In game one, Ty Blach put together his best performance in Missouri Valley Conference play this season, finishing with 7.1 innings of work, tying a season-high with nine strikeouts while allowing three earned runs.
The game started as a pitcher's duel, with both Blach and SIU's No. 1 Cody Forsythe putting up scoreless frames through the first four innings. After allowing a leadoff single to right field to start the game, Blach retired 11 of the next 12 batters, allowing just a two-out walk in the third inning. Blach also picked up a pair of strikeouts through four.
While the Bluejays put a runner on base in each of the first four innings, Forsythe was just as dominant on the mound, surrendering three hits through the first four innings, but not allowing a single runner past second base.
A hiccup in the fifth inning gave SIU a pair of runs, their first two of the game. A leadoff walk surrendered to Jordan Sivertsen was followed by an error on an attempted sacrifice putting runners on first and second. The pair both moved into scoring position with a sacrifice bunt before a wild pitch on a strikeout pushed across the first run of the game. A single through the right side put SIU up 2-0.
A solo home run off the bat of Brian Bajer in the seventh and a single run in the bottom of the eighth off Bluejay reliever Andrew Urban gave the Salukis a pair of insurance runs.
Anthony Bemboom's one-out double in the top of the ninth appeared like it would give the Bluejays a rally to end the game, but a pair of fly balls ended the frame, stranding the sixth runner of the game for Creighton.
Creighton was outhit 6-5 in game one, with five different Bluejays picking up a single hit each.
The Salukis got on the board first in game two as well, putting up a pair of runs in the bottom of the second inning. After a strikeout to open the frame, Erik Mattingly surrendered a walk that was followed with a triple from Brock Harding, scoring Jordan Sivertsen. A passed ball then allowed Harding to score, giving SIU the 2-0 lead.
Creighton answered in the top of the third, taking their first lead on their first runs of the weekend. With one out, Jordan Makovicka walked and scored on a Chance Ross double to left center. A Brennan Murphy walk put a pair of runners on base, both scoring on a Bemboom single to center field. Creighton led 3-2 after three.
After a scoreless fourth, Ross singled to left field to lead off the fifth inning. An errant throw on a Murphy bunt single allowed Ross to score, followed by Murphy scoring on a wild pitch. Creighton went up 5-2.
The lead wouldn't last long, however, as SIU put up a three spot on one hit, taking advantage of two walks and a hit batter to even the game, 5-5.
A Jordan Makovicka double to lead off the Creighton 7th would end up giving Creighton its final lead of the game. Makovicka was pushed across thanks to a sacrifice bunt and fielder's choice, putting Creighton up 6-5 after six and a half innings complete.
SIU scored the final two runs of the game, a single tally in the eighth inning and the game-winning run on a walk-off hit by Jake Welch that put SIU up 7-6.
The two teams will play the final game of the series tomorrow afternoon, with first pitch from Abe Martin Field set for 1:00 pm. The Bluejays will look to avoid their first sweep against the Salukis since 1998, when the two teams played a four-game series in Carbondale.
NOTES: Cody Forsythe threw his first complete game of the season, allowing five hits and striking out five Bluejays in the game … The Creighton batters flew into a season-high 18 outs in game one, including seven on the infield … Anthony Bemboom's one-out double in the ninth inning marked the lone extra base hit of the game for Creighton … Alex Staehely's 13-game reaching base safely streak came to an end in game one when he was held hitless … Jordan Makovicka made his first start of the 2012 season in game two, starting in left field and hitting in the nine hole … He finished game two with one hit and two runs scored … Mattingly pitched ahead for the first time in any of his starts this season, when Creighton went ahead in the third inning … Creighton out-hit SIU 10-7 in game two, led by Chance Ross' three hits. Brennan Murphy and Anthony Bemboom each added a pair of hits for the Jays.

Women, Clubs and Associations in Britain
Women have been consistently excluded from all manner of clubs and associations over the years, whether as the direct result of an anti-woman policy or indirectly through prohibitive entry requirements, social constraints, or conflict of interests and tastes. Retaliation from women has taken two directions: some women have set up their own exclusive clubs that reflect their own interests and aims, while others have taken on the men and striven to break down resistance to their joining 'men's' clubs on an equal footing.
This book traces the development of the current situation, drawing from a wide range of sources, some of which have never been published before. Looking at the different types of clubs and associations that include women and girls from the WI to the Girl Guides, this book is a rich social history full of fascinating observations and stories, and will be absorbing reading for anyone interested in sociology, women's history or the transformation of Britain's social life.less

OU defense erases road woes in rout
SEATTLE — Overwhelmed by defensive pressure, Jake Locker tucked the ball and ran for his life. But he didn't get far. Seven yards down the field, Travis Lewis grabbed Locker's legs before Ryan Reynolds buried his shoulder pad into Locker's chest so violently, the Washington quarterback had the wind knocked out of him and momentarily had to leave the game.
Thanks to hard hitting and relentless blitzing, Oklahoma punished Locker and the Huskies 55-14 in its best defensive road performance in years. Before 67,716, the Sooners rolled 55-14 at Husky Stadium, emphatically ending any talk of "road woes," and just as emphatically returning memories of the blitzing defenses that dominated college football at the turn of this century. "Our players really took the field in a strong way," coach Bob Stoops said. "We really played physical." The Sooner defense finished with 13 tackles for loss, four sacks and three fumble recoveries, blitzing seemingly on every down while the game was still competitive. Minus a 22-yard run by David Freeman, the defensive front, spearheaded by Gerald McCoy, demolished the Husky running game. The new-look linebacking trio of Lewis, Reynolds and Keenan Clayton boasted its collective speed, blitzing their way into the Husky backfield and chasing down Locker whenever he escaped the pocket. The defensive backfield, which has been burnt at times in recent years, didn't allow Locker to connect a pass of more than 21 yards and covered well in man-to-man coverage. And defensive coordinator Brent Venables called his most aggressive game, perhaps since taking over for Mike Stoops in 2004. "It was cool, we came in and did what we wanted," McCoy said.

HI There,
I've searched high and low, but I can't find any solution.
I have this widget called "Quick Post Widget". Now I want this to appear on the dashboard, so that users don't have to go through the steps of adding new messages, but can just do that through the dashboard.
The current widget does that as well, but stilllacks category options. The Quick Post Widget does have this function.
The reason I don't want it on the front end, but in the dashboard, is that the rest of the site uses pages, so therefor I don't want them to give more logins. I just want one login place where they can edit the pages and add new messages. I thought it would be easier this way, to prevent them from all the overwhelming options that you get when adding new messages.
I tried several dashboard plugins that promise you to add new plugins etc, but never work with version 3.1 of wordpress.
If you know the solution to add something to functions.php and make the widget load in the dashboard, OR know a plugin that does work for adding widgets to the dashboard, let me know :)
Thanks !

WASHINGTON – Elephants may be just as smart as dolphins and chimpanzees, and at least one of them might be more technologically proficient.
In fact, he may be more skilled with a smartphone than some people you know.
A video uploaded to YouTube shows an elephant named Peter taking his trunk to the Samsung Galaxy Note to flip through pictures of fruit, play a guitar app and even draw. Outtakes also show Peter playing the drums and the piano.

Thank you. There was some heated talk when it was announced a while ago. Wayne Lukas was a strong opponent. The writer from the Louisville newspaper had a column a few weeks ago which quoted Lukas:
Its simply a system that has no regard for 2-year-old racing and is flawed because at no time did anybody ask a person who has put up $50,000 to run in the Kentucky Derby, or a trainer that trained one, a rider that rode one or an owner that owned one for their opinion, he said. It de-emphasizes the 2-year-old program. I think there are going to be some startling results when you get into the spring races. I think some very good horses are going to be excluded from the Derby.
Churchill Downs defended themselves by trying to play up the distance and giving merit to the later races.
Another from the same writer:
Churchill Downs says it made the change to ensure that the horses in the best form and most suited for the Derby's grueling 11/4 miles make the field. The idea is to reward those doing well in the 11/8-mile prep races in late March and April those winners will get 100 points instead of those making a lot of money in sprint or grass races or those who win a big race at 2 but do not carry over their form to their 3-year-old season.

Running AGUI Xlet
I'm struggling with running AGUI Xlet application on phoneME Advanced. I'm using Davy's ZIP on Windows CE 5.0 (Motorola MC3090). My problem is that theoretically everything is OK, no exceptions, no errors, no nulls, but all I get is two blank windows. I put validate() and repaint() in several places, but still nothing gets drawn.
Is there something I don't know? Maybe Davy's compilations doesn't support AGUI? Does anyone have a sample applications, that draws something ("Hello world" is perfectly OK) in AGUI Xlet and can share it? I'm a bit desperate already.
Best regards
Jacek Bilski
I am not familiar with AGUI/JSR 209 and my builds do not include this library. If I am not
mistaken, the AGUI library is not open source either. Furthermore, if AGUI is more than just a
library (that you could just add to the classpath) and requires some hooks into the virtual
machine then it probably will work with my phoneME builds.
Perhaps some AGUI experts on this forum can help you.
