a register page that i've created works great in firefox, but in ie7 for some reason it doesnt want to load/update the javascript. i've got a password strength checker which updates after a key is entered into the password field. same thing with the country/state dropdown. both work in firefox, and neither work in ie7. any ideas?
javascript + msie7
unless you share what is not working for you there can be million of things which can work in one and not in other
here is the code for password strength
in register.php
in functions.php
in register.php
include 'functions.php'; ..
 Password:	  <input type="password" name="password" maxlength="30" style="width: 250" onkeyup="passwordStrength(this.value);"> 	 *
 ... //displays the actual password strength realtime after each key is entered in password field

Password strength
Password not entered

 ..

I see some browsers have the syntax of
 at start and end of the function file but i needed to close the script tag at the end of the first function, and start it again after for the next function.

IE rocks for this kind of bluff only
i've been told we cannot force people to use certain browsers, but i disagree

I need some ideas on a problem.
The first part says: Whats the posible rise in the temperature of the water falling 49.4 m in the Niagara Falls? That one was easy, with answer 0.112 Kelvin. ($\Delta T = \frac{g*h}{c_{H_2 O}}$)
The second part asks what factors tend to prevent that rise in temperature? Im thinking kinetic energy, preassure, air conductivity but im not sure.
Thanks in advance

I got this for my daughter's third birthday. She has had fun with it so far. It's perfect for her little hands. She has surprised me with the shapes she has figured out with it. She free-formed a train engine from her memory that I thought was remarkable. It has a cheap feel to it, but considering that it works as it should, that is a small complaint.

From the first page of the sheet music for "Graceful Ghost" (preview available from Sheet Music Plus), you can see that in the third measure (the first chord the right hand plays after the repeat starts), the notes are C, Db, C. How on earth is this supposed to be played? Am I supposed to mash both C and Db with my thumb? Am I supposed to roll the chord somehow? Is it a misprint? Am I misreading it?
Thumb on C, second finger on Db, fifth finger on C. You need a wide hand for that, and the ability to stretch almost an octave from the 2nd to 5th finger. Playing both notes with the thumb seems awkward because of the way the thumb has to bend for it. If you can't reach all 3 notes, try it leaving out one of the notes and see which two notes sound best.
This piece requires careful fingering. Spend time on it to find the fingering that works for you, particularly in the third strain. There aren't any misprints; all those crazy chords are for real.
That chord (and passage) pops up 6 times in this piece. I've got small hands and can still reach second finger on Db and fifth finger on C (both far up the keys, near the fallboard) with the thumb on the near edge of the key; this fingering also sets up the next chord, with the second finger remaining in place. I've listened to several recordings (including Bolcom's) and either the C or the Db often get left out, but it seems to sound best if both are there and slightly rolled. In any case, I wouldn't make a big deal about it -- it's a very transitory chord and only another piano player is going to notice.

The Washington State Department of Transportation says it has been transparent in the process of revealing the problems with these pontoons whereas numerous sources and their own documents tell a somewhat different tale. Now we want to open up the process of our investigation so you can see many of the thousands of public records we relied on for evidence.
Some of the most important public records are the videotaped inspections of the pontoons after they were taken out of the dry dock basin where they were built in Aberdeen and floated, first in Grays Harbor and then ultimately towed to Lake Washington where they are now being hooked together to form the floating platform for the new bridge.
On October 19, the WSDOT Public Records Division gave us 27 DVDs containing hundreds of hours of video inspections as the result of a disclosure request we made on September 10. We've strung together just a few of those video inspections here, some from each one of the six pontoons which are designated T, U, V, W and VNW and VSW.
Pontoon U
(See videos from Pontoons T, V, W and VNW and VSW)
It's important to note that we'd originally requested these videos at the end of August; here is the string of our e-mail request to the head of WSDOT Communications, Steve Pierce, saying he'll send us a disc.
A week later, this is how he responded, telling us WSDOT had posted five single videos, not 27 discs' worth, onto its website and we could access them there.
Additionally all audio had been edited out of the videos.
In mid-September WSDOT told us it only had one leak, identified in video as an internal leak in Pontoon V. Aside from all the other video evidence the Problem Solvers were waiting for on the other pontoons, there was also this diagram that shows there were leaks, identified in green in the document below, into at least 12 interior cells or compartments within Pontoon V.
Another important set of records include reports and/or investigations by experts either internally or hired by WSDOT or contractor Kiewit. The first is a report by the firm Buckland & Taylor, hired by Kiewit, to assess the cracking and spalling (concrete damage) created when the pontoons went through a process called post-tensioning, which is designed to strengthen the overall structure.
Pontoon designers within WSDOT put together a response to the B&T report. Both of these reports are highly technical in nature.
In August, an expert panel hired by WSDOT, released it's own report and in simple terms concluded that if contractor Kiewit closely followed the original design drawings by WSDOT and the concrete curing methods outlined by a previous test project then there should be no repeat of the problems experienced with the first pontoons.
Many of the problems with the concrete damage to the pontoons have been attributed to a "design flaw" by everyone from Secretary of Transportation Paula Hammond to Governor Chris Gregoire. The question is, where did the design flaws originate?
The pontoon construction is being built under what's called a "Design-Build" contract. As outlined in this 2009 e-mail before the contract was awarded, the successful bidder will do much of the final engineering for the pontoons. Numerous e-mails from contractor Kiewit point fingers at WSDOT for design problems.
But WSDOT internal communications show serious concerns about the level of design work being performed by Kiewit. Finally there is this report by a WSDOT engineer outlining where they believe contractor Kiewit has not performed all tasks required by the contract.
To try to get to the bottom of the design issue, we've asked to speak to the two main WSDOT engineers who, according to the documents we've received, are raising questions about the work performed by Kiewit: Jugesh Kapur and Patrick Clarke. We understand Kapur is the head of WSDOT's Bridges and Structures Division and he has been used as a spokesman for projects in the past. Clarke is listed as the Design Supervisor for the Pontoon Construction Project. Sources informed us last summer that Clarke had been removed from oversight at the Aberdeen casting basin, though WSDOT denied that in an interview in September.
Our requests to interview both men have been denied by WSDOT. We were told it would not be "appropriate."
Another reason to interview Clarke; his e-mails also raised the question of missing rebar connections called "hook bars" that are supposed to strengthen the connections between pontoons. WSDOT says it will not accept the pontoons until these missing bars are fixed but we've seen no documentation that WSDOT designers have approved any structural fix for this.
Another important section of public records includes the photos that document the concrete damage before the pontoons were floated out of the casting basin.
In addition to extensive cracking there was also what's called 'spalling' where sections of concrete break or crumble away; there was concrete damage with literally every one of the first six pontoons. The cracks and ultimate leaks once the pontoons were floated spurred a series of e-mails regarding repairs.
These records represent only a fraction of the documents obtained by the Problem Solvers through the course of our investigation, but they are a representation of some of the most critical pieces.
KOMO News will continue looking into the problems with the new 520 Bridge pontoons. If you have information you'd like to share, please contact us by email or phone at 206-404-4350.
Have a question or comment about our investigation into the 520 Bridge construction? Post in the comments below and Tracy Vedder and Executive Producer Sarah Garza will be responding through the day on Friday.

My boss wants to use MBOs to manage me. I am fairly new to GTD methods and it seems like they can be complementary to the MBO-style system. However, I seem to consistently struggle with the MBO method of employee assessment/management. It feels like I spend a lot of time "working on the work and reporting/forecasting" instead of actually doing the work.
My question boils down to this: What is a great way to do employee management that is based on SMART (Specific, Measure-able, Attainable, Realistic and Time-based), outcome-based goals/tasks that is not an MBO? If MBO is it, how can I best use GTD methods to reduce the time spent managing the tasks (the meta-work if you will)?

White sandy beaches. Tropical coral reefs. Warm inviting waters. All this awaits you on the Gili islands. And with no cars, no motorbikes and no distractions other than beautiful tropical island scenery, the Gili islands off the northwest coast of Lombok are truly an ideal destination for a tropical getaway.
Offering spectacular reefs and ominous dive sites like Shark reef, the Gili islands are the perfect escape for anyone wanting to get away to beautiful, natural and relaxing surrounds. This is why these islands have become a popular destination for Western tourists looking for a remote island experience.
For divers and snorkelers, there are few places better than the Gili's where you can get up close to all kinds of marine life including a green turtle (Chelonia mydas) in all its glory. Swim up and watch this graceful creature glide through the ocean. You should be able to spot these turtles at depths of 10-20 meter below sea level.
The Gilis consist of three islands: Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno, and Gili Air. In local Sasak language, "Gili" means "island". In the Indonesian language, plural is denoted by repeating a noun. So "Gili Gili" literally means "islands".
Renowned for friendly locals and superb natural beauty, each of the island's are well prepared for tourists. Gili Trewangan is the largest and most popular of the three islands. It has a vibrant nightlife to keep you entertained once the sun goes down. With a wide collection of restaurants and bars, you'll never be short of entertainment here.
If you're after a quiet getaway, try Gili Meno or Gili Air. Gili Air is closest to the mainland and is the most populated of the Gili's. Gili Meno is the smallest island and, with only a few hundred permanent residents, it has the most remote feel to it.
The Gili islands are easily reached by speedboat from Senggigi, taking only some 20 minutes boat ride. Many tourists also travel direct to Gili Trawangan by ferry that leaves Bali daily from Serangan or Padang Bai. (for details check: www.bluewater-express.com)
Travel on the islands are only by bike or "cidomo" the small horse-drawn carts taking 3 persons per ride. No motorized vehicles are allowed here.
There are plenty of hotels and restaurants built in keeping with the islands' homely village atmosphere.
Now that the three Gilis are internationally known for their underwater splendors and amazing ridge of rocks, there've been more lines of hotels, resorts and restaurants from the south to north of the Gili Gili, Lombok. Cafés and bungalows also become easier to find.
Currently there are more than 100 accommodations situated in the area. Mostly at the northern part. Some are even international-scale Now that the three Gilis have been internationally known for its underwater splendors and amazing ridge of rocks, there've been more lines of hotels, resorts and restaurants from the south to north of the Gili Gili, Lombok. Cafés and bungalows also become easier to find.
Currently there are more than 100 accommodations situated in the area. Mostly at the northern part. Some are even international-scale hotels.
Prices range from Rp. 400,000 per room at the simpler hotels to Rp. 1.7 million per night for a cottage at the more upscale establishments.
Enjoying the beauty of the underwater world at the Gili's is not always cheap so when you plan your holiday make sure you budget for the cost of hiring a diving instructor and equipment.
During peak season (June-August) the Gili's are fully booked so it's best to make your reservations at least four months in advance.
Cars and motorbikes are prohibited on the Gili's giving each island a very peaceful atmosphere.
The best way to get around and explore the islands is by bike. You can rent a bike and take a ride and look at the spectacular views of the tropical landscape.
A horse-drawn carriage or cidomo is another popular way to get around for both locals and visitors. A tour around Gili Terawangan in a cidomo for three costs around Rp. 150,000,taking around half an hour.
When you want to stretch your legs there's nothing quite like taking a leisurely stroll around the island.
If you want to travel between the Gili's you can also hire a motorized boat.
Gili Terawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air are easily reached by speedboat from Senggigi. Speedboats with a capacity for 10 passengers can be chartered at between Rp. 800,000 to Rp. 1 million two ways. Travel time is around 20 minutes. There are also regular passenger boats from Senggigi harbour, tickets cost Rp. 10,000 per pax.
There are also regular fast ferries from Bali direct to Gili Trawangan, departing Serangan at 08.00 am and 10,00 am, and daily from Padang Bai, leaving at 11.15. For details check with www.bluewater-express.com.
There are many tour and travel operators in Lombok. Check our Find Travel Agent Lombok site.

BLOOMINGDALE - Pointer owners from around the country descended on Bloomingdale Saturday for the inaugural American Kennel Club Gun Walking Dog competition.
Organizers say in all, 59 dogs took part in the competition at the Mingo Sportsman's Club.
"A lot of the dogs out here doing the walking competition are the same dogs that were being handled off horseback last week," said Trish James of Phoenix City, Ala., secretary of the Walking Gun Dog Championship Committee. "These dogs are smart enough to know to behave differently when they're handled by (someone) on foot."

ON THE HUNT — Benny and Jameson, German short-haired pointers, react to the start of competition Saturday at the American Kennel Club's Pointing Breed Walking Gun Dog championship, held at the Mingo Sportsman's Club near Bloomingdale. Fifty-nine dogs were entered in the first-ever AKC-sanctioned competition for walking gun dogs. -- Linda Harris
In walking competition, dogs need to stay closer to their handler, "but you still want the dog to have good range. They need to be able to walk with their handler and, of course, they have to be able to find and point birds," she said.
The dogs go out in pairs, each with his own handler and judge and with a gallery that saddles up and follows along. The handlers and their dogs follow a predetermined course that, if all goes well, takes them about an hour to complete. A quick return typically means an animal has been disqualified for "bad behaviors," like chasing a bird without permission.
"The first dog out today had an unauthorized retrieval" and was disqualified, she said. "You can't blame the dog, the dog has no idea this is a national championship, they're just out there doing this."
Judges look at everything from the intensity of the dog's demeanor to its bird-finding ability, it's style on point, whether they're hunting birds properly and stamina.
"When a dog stops and points, they've got to hold that point" until the handler catches up, locates the bird and flushes it out. "They've got to hold steady and not move. They can turn their heads to watch the bird fly away, but any movement is considered poor manners and when they see it, the judges will tell you to leave."
The competition drew a range of breeds - everything from German short-haired pointers, German wire-haired points and Vizla's to English Setters, Irish Setters, Brittanys, Weimaraners and traditional pointers.
Doug Lungren of the AKC's Performance Committee said going forward, they'll rotate locations for the championship. Mingo Sportsman's Club was chosen because "it's a good facility, and it's laid out well."
Up to now, the focus was Horseback Walking Gun Dogs, but he said fewer and fewer people have their own horses nowadays.
"When you're handling on horseback, you can go quickly over the hill and (command) the dog," he said. "When you're walking, there's a little more teamwork. The dog has to pay more attention to the handler, the handler's not going to get there as fast."

Guys, anyone know how to change linux console editor from vi into vim everytime we execute vi? I'm using Ubuntu and Fedora Core
migrated from stackoverflow.com Aug 21 '09 at 10:42
This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
First, make sure you have the proper Vim packages installed. The default on many systems is to install a minimal Vim package that is closer to Vi in functionality.
On Red Hat based systems (RHEL, CentOS, Fedora), you need the vim-enhanced package, for example from a CentOS system I have installed:
'common' contains common libraries used by all the Vim packages. 'minimal' is the plain vi editor executables as installed by default.
On Debian based systems (like Ubuntu), you need 'vim'. For example:
These should be installed by default. On Debian/Ubuntu, you can update the default system editor for all users:
Select the version you want from the selection menu. Post installation scripts for the vim package should have already updated this, though. Use
Finally, on a per user basis for any distribution, set up an alias in the user profile. For example if the shell is bash, edit ~username/.bashrc:
Also, you may check the system vimrc (/etc/vimrc, usually) to see if compatibility mode is turned on.
Will tell Vim to behave more like old-school Vi, no matter how you've handled using Vim per above. Change to 'nocp' or 'nocompatibility' to make Vim more useful.
In your .bashrc:
If it is a Debian or Ubuntu system, and you want to make this change system wide, you should use
If you need the changes only for your id, and within a terminal session: alias vi to vim as suggested by AI.
If you want a system-wide change on your machine, soft-link to vim in /usr/local/bin:
Note: Programs can ignore any aliases on vi by running
Some dists use vim:s old school mode where it behaves like vi.
check if your .vimrc contains
I have been fooled by this a couple of times....
On Debian systems, when you execute the default vim-tiny as 'vi', a different RC file is used - /etc/vim/vimrc.tiny.
To make 'vi' act more like 'vim', edit /etc/vim/vimrc.tiny and change the line:

I created a graphic in Flash CS4 that contains text. I embedded the appropriate characters then saved it as a MovieClip into my library. I then exported it to an SWC file.
In my AS3 code (using Flex SDK/notepad), I then import the movieclip and assign it some mouse events so I can use it as a button.
Unfortunately, all the text-in-graphics I import this way have the "I" mouse cursor and the text is selectable. This steals the focus from my flash application and is not good!
I know when I have a textfield I can:
var myButton:TextField = new TextField();
myButton.MouseEnabled = false;
But this has no effect when it's a Movieclip I'm importing:
var myButton:MovieClip = new MyImportedButtonGraphic();
myButton.MouseEnabled = false; // No effect
// Plus some other things I learned:
myButton.selectable = false; // also no effect
myButton.MouseChildren = false; // No effect
What am I doing wrong?

The City For Deviants {RP} - 04-14-2009, 06:36 PM
The City for Deviants ~
You are a savant. What is a savant, you ask? It is a person with extremely detailed knowledge in some specialized field. There aren't many of them, tho, but there is enough to be studied. There are many different fields, of course. Art, literature, science, math... but there is a consequence for your ability. You are misunderstood at home because no-one can relate to you. You have had enough of being ignored, because you know knowledge like this isn't common. The people you have told about your secret merely laugh and say you're insane. You can't tell anyone anymore, but the feelings begin to add on to another and another and eventually stack up. Who would want to live like a turtle stuck in it's shell?
You look in the morning paper one day and see an add for kids who think they need psychological therapy. You buy a ticket to Sacramento, California to join this meeting. When you reach the calling, you hear (# of kids) other kids chatting quietly in a corner. You join the circle and find out they have incredible knowledge in a specific field, much like you. A therapist walks in and talks for what seems like hours. Your chair is stiff, and you swear the clock is going five times slower than your watch. Was this worth your time? After the meeting, you join the kids again for a quick chat. It turns out that they have the same issue with no-one understanding them, and they're fed up as well. You quickly decide the hardest thing you've ever decided. It's time to leave home.
You and the kids run away to New York City aboard a freight train the next morning, a classic location for stow aways. But it's dark and dangerous. People even say a crime happens every 6 seconds. It is the time of night when the robbers and the Sweepers come out. The Sweepers are an organization run by the mayor to rid the city of a majority of the homeless. They are men with black suits and take you away to a place no-one has ever returned to discuss. It began in the early 2000s, when the homeless rate began to climb. They have dark vans along the streets at night, waiting for an unlucky homeless person to beg for change. But when the situation is more extreme, like for example there is a band of squatters at an abandoned building, they send a black truck full of the darkly dressed men to take control. They are feared all over the city, and you have to be cautious when walking around at night. That's why groups of homeless and run aways band together for survival.
The first week in New York was difficult. You realize how many people were living on the streets. Each person was homeless for a reason - whether it is they went bankrupt, committed a crime and escaped the police and ran or were disliked at home. But among these reasons were the more dangerous ones. Some of these men, women, and children had run for their lives from problems at home or at work that were too dangerous to for them to remain.
It's going to be hard to survive, but you and your friends have faith in each other. Perhaps you should find a sustainable job to afford food, or maybe the life of a theft is good for you. However you want to live is fine, just remember to stick together and avoid the Sweepers....
Fields for savants:
Maps - You are extremely well at maps and coordinating them. You can remember each location on a map after quickly looking at it.
Math - You can do extremely complicated math problems in your head.
Calender: You can recall a date in your life and important things that have happened on that date.
Aside from savants, you could be a Sweeper. (1-2 active playing Sweepers. The rest are NPCs)
When a person signs up for a field, I will remove it from the option list, so you'll have to choose from the remaining fields)
1) Please make sure you know how to RP. I can't express this enough...
2) Romance is encouraged, but please try not to overdo it.
3) No Mary Sues or Gary Stus. Please, please, none.
4) Don't make your character suddenly realize they can fly or read minds. It doesn't work that way.
5) You can write paragraphs if you would like, but it proffered you write 2-3 lines at the very most.
This story is basically a battle for survival on the streets in New York City and not to fall into the hands of the Sweepers.

Name: Virginia Payton
Age (Teens): 16
Field: Language
Bio: Aside her ignored past, she never had any friends besides a cat named Murphy. She went to a private school until the time of six and was bullied, so she moved to a public school. She loves music, and used to play the violin. She isn't too smart in the area of math, but tried her hardest in school. She was still bullied at the public school, but she spent most of her day in therapy. Nothing could remedy her tend to recluse, so they eventually gave up and left her to fend for herself. It got easier after practice against bullies, but still isn't too good around people.
Strengths (3 aside from your field): Patient, Listener, Clever
Weaknesses (3): Lazy, Has Mood-Swings, Weak
Picture (Optional):
~ Virginia Payton awoke in the North Street alley. She had been searching for food the previous night, and she was tired from all the running she had had to do. "I should have worked harder in gym class when I had it," she thought. There was a slant of light coming thru the tall building of both sides of her, and she got up slowly and walked into it, waking herself up. She reached her hands up and stretched. She heard all of the sounds of New York City: cars, horns, people. She couldn't imagined a better place to be. It had been a month since she arrived there, and she didn't plan on leaving anytime soon. She walked out into the actual street and sat on the bench closest to her. She pulled her knees up to her chin and looked at the nearest sign. It was an advertisement for McDonald's, and she tried to say in as many languages as she could remember to pass the time. After all, there wasn't school anymore, but she knew she had to remember her languages. After all, language was the reason she run from home.

Name: Nora Penvellyn
Age (Teens): 15
Field: Time
Bio: Nora never stayed at one school for much time. She was either kicked out for bullying other kids or either chose not to come. She did this as a protection against kids making fun of her. She really only spent time, a word she hated, reading. Loves to break rules.
Strengths (3 aside from your field): Creative and a good problem solver.
Weaknesses (3): Quick to judge, lazy, cocky and rude.
Appearance (subbed the in instead): Brown haired, blue eyed, and a medium build, only 5'4.
OOC: Savants also can be kids with Autism and have a special ability. ^^ I just wanted to point that out because I saw a T.V. show on it.
As the sun began to rise, Nora opened her eyes lazily. "Ugh, 8:23 already?" Nora said, wishing she could go back to sleep. She sighed and hesitantly got up from her home, made up of a old orange crate and a old peice of cardboard. Her appearance was rather ratty looking. She wore a torn jacket covered in mud, and dirty jeans with a ton of mud on them, not to mention her hair was a mess. She yawned and picked up her "purse", a old Wal-Mart bag that she used to pick up any food she found along the way. She walked slowly, not knowing where she was going, just somehow going, like some hidden force was moving her. She sat down at a bench, where, at least she guessed, another homeless person was sitting down. Nora sat down next to her not caring if she noticed her or not. Strangely, it seemed the girl was muttering something, but Nora couldn't understand it. A advertisment mas stuck underneath the chair leg of the bench and Nora picked it up. She glared at it sadly. "Stupid Spanish, wish I could know what it says."
Name: Harmony (Harm) Lynn Maeve
Age (Teens): 17
Field: Splinter
Bio: Harm was always alone. Never needed anybody, always felt safer alone. Her mother was always drunk or on a 'gig' but when she was home, and sober, it was like hell. Harm and her mother fought like crazy, cussing each other out and even getting into some physical fights, weapons at times. Since Harm was a strong sleeper at times, to wake her up, her mother would use various resources to wake her, causing scars. Harm was always degraded, from her teachers to her family. Finally, she decided that instead of letting it bother her, she would fight but now, her passion to fight was weakening. When she started to gain these 'improvements' she was bashed and beaten for it. She began to hide it, keep it to herself, but improve at the same time. She learned Math pretty quick, as that was her best subject at school but Time and Language were extremely hard but she could learn it, slowly.
Strengths (3 aside from your field): She taught herself how to defend herself, by any means-which meant with or without weapons, she has extreme determination and self control.
Weaknesses (3): Hatred-she can't stand most people, especially girls. Her lack of patience, she may be self controlled but that is only when she is fighting, other than that she as loose as a cannon, and her passion for animals. She doesn't care what danger it involves, she will try and save any animal.
Picture (Optional):Link
Harm was already up. She had emptied the contents of her bag, mainly weapons and a few pieces of clothes. She was sharpening some of her knives, a cold, passionless look in her eyes. She glanced up at the two just awakening. "Rise and shine, girls." She rolled her eyes. "I thought we said we would be up and moving by 6 am." In reality, that's what Harm had said. She had told the group, thinking that she was the leader, to be up by 6 am in time to leave. Obviously, she was the only person who had done so. "If you guys would start waking up on time, we might have been able to go get food down at the homeless shelter-but no, you lazy people wanted to sleep. Well, reality check, we're not at home anymore. So, stop thinking that you're still safe." She stood up, gathering her stuff.
Being single doesn't make you weak, it means that you are strong enough to be on your own; Being alone could be a good thing, because there is no drama involved in your life, no pain, and free to do what ever you want. Life is too short to be chasing those who aren't even worth fighting for, you are worth more than that.
ooc: Correct! Sorry for the confusion.
Sam rolled her eyes. "Doesn't matter! By the time we get to the shelter, so many people would have been there that we will be standing in line for nothing." Sam always had to be right and have the last word in. Always. xD

The toilet in one of my bathrooms is too close to the shower. I have room and would like to move it about 2 feet. It is also a 14" rough-in and it's hard to find toilets in that size, that are not ~$500 (Toto). I'd like to make it a standard 12" rough-in. The challenge I see is the bathoom is on concrete slab. So, what's involved in moving the toilet drain about 2" closer to wall and 2 feet over? I'm not sure if the drain is plastic or iron but I imagine that would have an impact on the effort.
If its on a solid slab you're looking at a jackhammer and some new fittings. If your fittings are cast iron you'll need to be especially careful because its brittle and any concrete removing action around it could cause it to crack. Once exposed you'll be able to see your options depending on which direction the down elbow runs.
How about a less drastic first step: hire a plumber with a snake scope (or rent the scope yourself from an equipment place). These scopes come with locators, allowing you to trace the path of the plumbing with the locator, and by following the direction of curves on the video monitor. This will show you which way the drain flows and where it connects to a parent stack, allowing you to plan for the move before you jackhammer the slab open. It also makes sure that the existing drain ties into a sanitary line, and not the storm sewer (they're for very different purposes; the sanitary line is for wastewater from within the home, while the storm sewer is for your weeping tile, sump and rain gutters.
A jackhammer really is the tool for the job. An angle grinder was designed to cut/shape metal and was not designed to cut into concrete; it has neither the proper blade diameter nor the proper motor power. A jackhammer is also faster for "rough" cutting like you're going to want anyway. A concrete/rock saw is for precision work like cutting a nice square opening in a brick wall for a new window/door. Once you've moved the plumbing where you want it, you'll be filling in the part of the slab you cut out anyway, and new concrete bonds best to old concrete when the old concrete has rough edges; smooth cuts could cause the patch to lift out of the cut as it doesn't have as much to "grab".
I moved my shower drain that is located in a concrete floor. Much of the work should be the similar for moving a toilet, just on a bigger scale.
I used an air chisel to chip out the concrete around the drain. I needed to move the drain about 2 inches and the hole I chipped out ended up over 1 foot across. The concrete was only a few inches thick. There was dirt below the concrete (typical for a Phoenix slab home). The chipping went pretty well, just a lot of noise and dust. Wear gloves, eye, ear, and dust protection.
My drain was ABS. I cut off the old pipe and glued on new pipe. Then I refilled the hole with packed dirt and new concrete.
It is a project that seems like it would be a lot more work, but most of the work is just chipping and removing the debris and dirt. I cannot comment on what to do if you have cast iron drains as I have no experience with cast iron.
The digging needs to be done anyway, even if you need to call in a plumber to actual move the pipe.
Keep in mind that once your remove the toilet, sewer gasses can come up through the open pipe. If you shove something down the pipe to block the gasses, make sure it does not go down the pipe. Also try to keep debris out of your drain. You don't want to clog it up.
You can use diamond tools to cut your way through the concrete. Look for "Diamond Coring and Sawing" tools. A good rotary hammer (around 10 Joule or more) will do the job too, but is not so precise and you will damage a larger area of concrete than necessary.

A co-worker and myself are having a friendly bike / run contest. What is a good ratio for miles ridden vs. miles run? I know it depends on pace. But I'm curious what a generally accepted range of ratios might be.
Sign up

If you want to do a competition which gives a (good runner, mediocre cyclist) even chances against a (good cyclist, mediocre runner) then you might use the same ratio as the Ironman triathlon.
It has a 112-mile (180.25 km) bike and a marathon 26.2-mile (42.2 km) run which puts the ratio of distance cycled/distance run at roughly 17/4.
Based on questions in comments, let me clarify.
I think 17/4 is probably well on the low side for a long race. I've done a double metric century with 3km of climbing and ridden the next day. I doubt I could run the day after a marathon on anything but a gentle downhill slope.
For shorter distances though, it seems more reasonable. If I push myself for 10km (6.2 miles), I expect it would take more out of me than if I hammered for 42km (26 miles) miles, but that's because I'm a better cyclist. I think the hammering would take just as much extra out of some runner friends of mine.
Weak cyclists can benefit from drafting a strong cyclist in a way that weak runners can't, but I think I'm strong enough to drop a strong runner/weak cyclist so that isn't a factor. I would definitely try to have the ride first though, because otherwise the run might take enough out of me that I would have more trouble dropping a tail.
The short answer to your question is "probably between 2.5 and 3.5 miles; the faster the runner the closer to 2.5 while the slower the runner the closer to 3.5." The long answer is quite long.
As you already noted in your question, the full answer depends on pace; but it also depends on the surface being run or ridden on, whether it is up hill, down hill, or flat, whether it is windy or calm, and how "aero" the cyclist is. That said, if we are talking about a road bike on a firm flat surface under calm conditions, it is possible to make some estimates of the "equivalent" distance. The simple answer is given in the chart below, which relates the distance one must cycle in a given amount of time to equal the effort in running a mile at a given pace.
In this chart, the x-axis is the run pace for a mile and the y-axis shows the distance one must cycle in the same amount of time. For example, if you can run a mile in 4 minutes, an equivalent cycling distance if you were riding "in the drops" would be to ride about 2 miles in the same 4 minutes (that is, to average 30 mph). If you ran a mile at a 10 minute/mile pace, it would take you 10 minutes to run a mile and an equivalent cycling distance would be to ride about 3.5 miles in the same 10 minutes (that is, to average about 21 mph).
How was the chart calculated? In running, the power needed to run X meters/second is approximately X watts/kg of body weight (cf. Hall, Figueroa, Fernhall, and Kanaley, 2004 or McArdle, Katch & Katch, 2007), while the power needed to ride at Y meters/second varies with Y^3 (cf. Wilson and Papadopoulos, 2007). Thus, if we know the amount of time it takes to run a mile, the weight of the individual and the bike, and some other simplifying assumptions we can make the conversion. An exact estimate of running power will depend on the individual's gross metabolic efficiency, the runner's energetic economy (that is, how economical in an energy sense is the individual's running style), and the runner's resting metabolic rate, but it is commonly observed that for a normal-sized individual without unusual abilities or disabilities, energy expenditure while running on a firm flat surface will range between about 0.8 to 1.1 kcal/kg/km. Thus, a common rule of thumb is that running requires about 1 kcal/kg/km. There are 4.2 joules per kilocalorie but gross metabolic efficiency usually lies in the range of 19-25%; if we assume a value of 23.8% for GME, we can derive the happy simplification that (running speed in meters per second)*(body weight in kg) is a reasonable estimate of power in watts; or speed in meters/second ~ watts/kg.
For this chart, I first calculated the speed in meters per second for various running paces along the x-axis, from a 4 minute mile (= ~6.7 m/s) to a 10 minute mile (= ~2.7 m/s). By the running rule of thumb, this requires roughly 6.7 watts/kg down to about 2.7 watts/kg. I then presumed "average" values for the coefficient of rolling resistance (Crr) of .005, flat ground, no wind, and a CdA (drag area) of the cyclist of 0.25, 0.33, and 0.42 sq. meters (typical of a road bike rider "on aerobars", "in the drops", and "on the hoods") and calculated the cycling speed for a cyclist able to produce between 6.7 watts/kg and 2.7 watts/kg. The running pace defines a total amount of time needed to run a mile so the question becomes "how far must a cyclist producing this much power ride in the same amount of elapsed time?" Knowing the speed and the elapsed time lets us calculate the distance. That is what is shown on the y-axis. Note that for the fastest runners, the equivalent cycling distance approaches 2 miles while for the slowest runners competing against the most aerodynamic cyclists, the equivalent cycling distance approaches 4 miles. Thus, for a friendly race between you and your co-worker, if neither of you is a world-class athlete, a reasonable range is 2.5x - 3.5x the running distance to handicap a race so that you both finish in approximately the same time.
If the cyclist were a bit more aerodynamic (for example, if the cyclist used aerobar extensions and subsequent CdA was below 0.25 m^2) the curve would move upward and the rider would have to ride farther in the same amount of time (that is, faster) to match the runner's energy expenditure. If the cyclist were a bit less aerodynamic (for example, if the cyclist's position was more upright, or was wearing loose and flappy clothing) the rider would be expending energy at a faster rate so the curve would move down.
A rough validation of this approximation is that, anecdotally, people who both run and cycle say that running 10 km in about 42 minutes is roughly about as hard as riding 40 km in an hour. That's a running pace of about 6:45 per mile, and the chart equates that to cycling about 2.75 miles in 6:45, or about 24.5 mph -- which is 39 km/h. Our rule of thumb for equivalence is "between 2.5 and 3.5 times as far; closer to 2.5 times if the runner is fast and closer to 3.5 for a slower runner." Running a mile at a 6:45 pace is moderately fast, so we would expect the equivalent multiplier for cycling distance to be closer to 2.5 than to 3.5 -- as you can see, the predicted multiplier is 2.75 so the rule of thumb appears to work. Further evidence can be gathered from duathlons or triathlons. Below you can see data from the 2010 Ironman World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. The Ironman comprises a 2.3-mile ocean swim, a 112-mile bike ride, and a 26.2-mile marathon. The scatterplot matrix below shows the swim, bike, and run times (in hours) for each of the finishers.
If we ignore the swim leg and concentrate only on the relationship between the run and the bike, we can prorate them to equivalent 10k run times and 40k bike times, as is done here:
What these latter two charts clearly show is that equivalent bike distance will depend heavily on run pace but also on the individual. There is a great deal of "scatter" in the scatterplot, which indicates that while the rule of thumb is reasonable it is not precise.
While the idea of comparing the distances of the cycling and running portions of the Ironman triathlon might seem appealing at first, you'll quickly see that the times of those distances aren't quite the same. The cycling portion of the Ironman typically takes participants about 1.25 times as long as the running portion, varying somewhat between competitors but always hovering around 1.25 times as long for cycling.
It might be better to compare world records set over an equal amount of time. As it happens, there are world records held for the maximum distance covered in an hour for both cycling and running. Currently, the hour record for running is just a smidge over 21 km. The cycling hour record is a little bit trickier due to the fact that it has been set on a number of different types of bicycles, many of which are illegal in competition today. However, the hour record on a standard drop-bar road bike with a steel frame, rounded tubes, and wire spokes (much like the one most of us might ride on the road today) is held by none other than the great Eddy Merckx and is a bit over 49 km. This suggests an approximately 5:2 ratio between cycling and running.
However, when comparing calories burnt over an hour of cycling verses an hour of running, you don't get the same approximate 5:2 ratio. It's a little closer to 2:1. This ratio actually does appear to be nearly linear, at least until you approach professional level speeds where the calorie calculator I was using topped out. NB: I was calculating the calories burnt by a 190 lb man. The values and ratios come out wildly different as body weight approaches the very thin and the very heavy.
So I guess it really depends on the metric you'd like to use for comparison.
The problem here is that the effort spent is differently.
A "good" 45 y.o. runner capable of qualifying for Boston Marathon might do a 3:30 marathon (26.2) while a "good" biker on reasonably flat course might cover around 90 miles on a bike in the same time (87.5 miles @ 25 mph). The marathoner would likely be very much done for the day while the biker would likely still have some left in the tank.
Take it to one extreme, run a 100m sprint as hard as you can. Have your buddy do a 400m lap at the velodrome. The biker will recover MUCH faster. At the other extreme (running/biking for 12 hours+) things are even murkier. As HeltonBiker points out, the ration is not linear (I doubt it's even quadratic). There is also a level of fitness at issue here. Because your are, in essence, multiplying effort small differences between levels of fitness will be blown way out of proportion.
For your contest, you could semi-level the playing field and make it about semi-equivalent effort spent. My $0.02 would be to get heart rate monitors (I would even step it up and get GPS devices) that take into account type of activity, heart rate, etc to generate # of calories burned. Person that burns the most over a specified period wins.
If you are looking to do a single race rather than a longer contest, then you should look at average times for equivalent races. The various triathlon distances would be a good start, but I would discount the run times by 5-10% as the runner will not be doing a swim and bike first!
I am aged 50+ and cycled about 10,000 km (from a 36 km total daily commute) in the last 15 months.
Only very recently (after all that) have I found that I have enough strength in my legs and 'feet' and heart, to run any continuous distance at all.
So for my body, actual running (on my toes and not my heels) was unquantifiably harder (and required a year of cycling just as training, to get started on running).
You could just try it once to get baseline values. E.g. you both go and do your thing for an hour, then come back with the results. Then you can use that as your ratio.
To prevent one another from gaming the calibration you could keep a running average that you both try to beat.
Of course the bike will always win for the reasons stated above, and because on a bike you can increase efficiency by spending money, whereas a runner cannot.
A more fair contest would be to compete in each others' sports and compare results fairly. E.g. "I beat you by 15% when you biked, and you beat me by 12.3% when I jogged." Or whatever.
In Bulgaria we have an annual 100-km race in Vitosha mountain. Speed walkers/runners set off at midnight, while cyclists start at 6 AM. The terrain asphalt and mountain trails, with slopes up and down. This is considered fair.
I, personally, pity the runners, for reasons mentioned in other answers here - walking 100 miles - heroic torture, cycling 100 miles - pleasure.

When using a CamelBak (or other hydration bladder system), it is easy for mold to grow if the bladder is left sitting with water in it. What is the best way to avoid mold (or other nasties) growing inside in between trips?
CamelBak have a great Care & Tips section on their website. Summarising their recommendations:
Keep it clean and dry when not in use. If mould develops:
Leave the filler cap open to allow any water residue inside to evaporate and so the humidity level of the air inside the bladder matches that of the air in the environment around it
I clean it out then leave it to dry for a day or two. But you can never seem to get all of the water out of the hose, so I keep mine in the freezer. At -18 the mold can't grow.
I used a blow dryer on low setting to dry the bag and tub, and a paper towel pouch (twist tie close) with rice - I figure if it gets moisture out of a cell phone and salt - it ought to work for a Camelback. I also save the little silica gel packets that come in vitamin bottles and new shoe boxes and may try those.
I would suggest:
This is why I like the pouches that have a zip-lock bottom as well as a cap on the top - it makes it a lot easier to clean the inside and leave it open to let it fully dry.
My friend also swore by leaving the pouch in the freezer when not in use - this would obviously slow down mould growth considerably in between uses.
I get food-grade 3% hydrogen peroxide (NOT 35%) from my health-food/ vitamin store and put a cap-ful in any water container then fill it to the brim. It works really well to kill microbes of all kinds by oxygenating the water, and you can drink it in that low of a concentration (it is used in commercial food preparation, and some people believe that drinking oxygenated water is actually good for you as well).
I just get it mostly dry and then pop it in the freezer until the next use. This keeps anything from growing and takes 30 seconds and no cost.

I'm designing a quizz with jQuery. It has 4 counters: "correct answer", "wrong answer", "timer" and "score". Each counter has a little icon describing the counter.
I have found good jQuery UI icons for all counters except "score". Any suggestions?

If you feel that this question can be improved and possibly reopened, visit the help center for guidance.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
A few ideas: a paper clipboard image (associated with someone writing down the score), a flip-over scoreboard, an abstract star/hexagon/shield, or a domain-specific reward (coin, treasure, heart, flower, horseshoe, etc.).
This one
I'd consider using some kind of a star, maybe an 8+ point star so that it doesn't look like a some kind of a bonus counter.
I've also often seen coins and diamonds or some objects thematically related to the game used as score icons but that may not be possible in your case.
How about a tally score type icon:

Indiana Hoosiers Basketball 2015-2016 News and Updates
2014-2015 Season
3/10/15 - The Indiana Hoosiers basketball team ended their regular season with a loss against Michigan State. The Hoosiers put up a fight, narrowly losing 74-72. The Spartans had a significant lead going into the final four minutes to play, but the Hoosiers were able to bounce back, leaving the decision of the game to the final seconds. The season is not completely over for the Indiana Hoosiers yet. They start the Big Ten Tournament on Thursday, March 12, with a game against Northwestern in Session 3. However, they have to do well in the conference tournament to make it to the big NCAA tournament. After missing out last year, the Hoosiers will be looking to secure their place in March Madness this season. Tickets for the Conference tournament are still available, starting at $9 for Session 3.
… more
3/3/15 - The Indiana Hoosiers Basketball team has only one game left in their regular season, when they face Michigan State on March 7. After losing to Iowa 77-63 on Tuesday night, the Hoosiers have come even closer to the bubble, risking being cut from the NCAA Tournament. The game started out close, with the Hoosiers only down by four at halftime. However, an early run by Iowa made it more difficult for the Hoosiers to come back for a victory. They have lost the three of the last four games, so they need a solid win on Saturday, March 7, against Michigan State, in addition to a solid play at the conference tournament, to help secure their place in the NCAA Tournament. Tickets are still on sale for the Michigan State game, starting at $189.
2/24/15 - As March approaches, Indiana Hoosiers Basketball is sitting on the right side of the bubble. Though the Hoosiers have slipped up a bit by letting one get away at #19 Maryland and losing to Purdue at home, they are still in good position to make the big dance. Currently projected as an 8 seed, the Hoosiers can improve their tournament seeding by winning their final three games of the season. That all starts with tonight's contest at Northwestern. While the game tonight shouldn't be too much of a struggle, the Hoosiers will need your support when they return to Assembly Hall to face Iowa and Michigan State for the final two games of the regular season. Razorgator is your ticket to the game, with seats starting at just $59.
2/19/15 - Last night's embarrassing loss to a much-improved Purdue team notwithstanding, the Hoosiers are tantalizingly close to "lock" status for the NCAA tournament. With several impressive wins this season and a high RPI, this Indiana team is one to watch out for this March. Though they lack size and suffer from frequent defensive breakdowns, this Hoosier team has still managed four wins over ranked teams with their offensive firepower. This Indiana team has the potential to produce a giant killing upset or two this March. Make sure to come out to Assembly Hall in Bloomington to catch the last two home games of the season as Indiana Hoosiers Basketball tries to enter the postseason with some momentum. Razorgator has tickets available for March 3rd against Iowa starting at just $57.
2/10/15 - The Indiana Hoosiers have a storied basketball program, and every year, they are in the running to win a national title. Things didn't go there way tonight, though. They ended up losing to Maryland, the number 19 ranked team in the country. They fought their hearts out, but ended up losing 68-66. Even though they lost, they still have a lot of positive things to take away from this game. In their narrow defeat, Yogi Ferrell scored 23 points with 6 assists. He looked great for all four quarters, but his efforts were not enough to lead his team to victory. Troy Williams also played well, scoring 17 points with 10 rebounds. Next up for Indiana is a great match up against Minnesota, which takes place this upcoming Sunday. Tickets are available now for $85.
2/5/15 - The Indiana Hoosiers basketball team is missing their leading scorer James Blackmon, Jr., due to an ankle injury, and they are feeling the loss and are now ranked 6th in the Big Ten. Their latest game against the Wisconsin Badgers ended in a 92-78 loss on Tuesday, Feb. 3. Indiana had a strong first half, making 8 of 11 3-point attempts and leading the game for a time. However, Wisconsin came back strong in the second period and moved ahead. The Hoosiers worked to close the gap in the final three minutes, but it was too late for victory. As the season heads towards the final, the Hoosiers will try for more wins to make it to the tournament. The team next faces the Michigan Wolverines at home on Feb. 8. Tickets are still available, starting at $185.
1/26/15 - The Indiana Hoosiers are having a great season thus far this year. They are the 3rd ranked team in the Big Ten Conference, and are looking to do big things this year. Their last game this Sunday didn't go according to plan, though. They ended up losing to Ohio State 82-70. A huge performer for the Hoosiers was Yogi Ferrell. He ended up scoring 26 points with 3 rebounds. He looked great from the 3-point field, but his efforts couldn't help his team rally down the stretch. The Hoosiers simply couldn't contain D'Angelo Russell, who went on to score 22 points. They need to adjust their defensive scheme for their next game, which is going to be against Purdue. Tickets for the game can be bought now for $67.
1/20/15 - Following a disappointing loss at the beginning of January, the Indiana Hoosiers basketball team pulled off an incredible victory against the Ohio State Buckeyes that came down to the last minute. Following that incredible win, the Hoosiers have brought some impressive energy to their matches. When they played the Penn State Nittany Lions, Indiana managed to score an early lead and they held on to it through the second half, ending the game 73-76. More recently, they were able to score a more solid win against the Illinois Fighting Illini where they earned more points than their opponents in both periods. Their greatest challenge, however, will be on Jan. 22nd when they play the nearly undefeated Maryland Terrapins. Tickets are still available, starting at $48.
1/12/15 - The Indiana Hoosiers basketball team had the game of their lives on Jan. 10. They were taking on the Ohio State Buckeyes who had one more win and one less loss than the Hoosiers. Despite Indiana's best shooter, James Blackmon Jr., only scoring two points in the first half, they were able to carve out a little six-point lead. Luckily, Blackmon found his groove in the second half and scored 16 points along with an impressive dunk by Troy Williams. With three and a half minutes remaining, the Hoosiers had a 10 point lead, but the Buckeyes were ready to make an upset. Indiana was able to just barely hold out to end the game 66-69. Hopefully they will be able to maintain this energy into their next game on the 18th against the Maryland Terrapins.
1/7/15 - The Indiana Hoosiers basketball team continue through their slump of away games just waiting to return to their home court. Most recently, a disappointing game against the Michigan State Spartans ended 50-70. They had a rough first half, but picked themselves up afterward to score 33 points. While it was not enough to win the game, it was a good comeback. The Hoosiers have only lost four games this season, but two of them have been in the last few weeks. Even if this loss is disappointing, their rank is still secure with 11 strong wins. Additionally, the series of away games is finally over, which hopefully means they will tear up the court once again. Their next game is against the Ohio State Buckeyes on Jan. 10th. Tickets start at $32.
12/31/14 - In an intensely close game on Saturday, the Indiana Hoosiers basketball team fell just barely short of the Georgetown Hoyas. After taking a 10-point lead in the first half, their defense simply could not keep the Hoyas from catching up in the second. At the buzzer, they were tied at 77 points. Then, unfortunately, in overtime the Hoosiers only scored 10 against Georgetown's 14. Kevin Ferrell led with 27 points, Troy Williams followed with 23 points, and James Blackmon Jr. rounded out their star players with 22 points. This loss is only Indiana's third for the season while they have won 10. The Hoosiers will continue their series of away game and will have their first home game in three weeks on January 10th when they play Ohio State. Tickets start at $52.
12/24/14 - The Indiana Hoosiers have been on a winning streak since they took on the Grand Canyon Antelopes on the 13th, and Monday's game was no exception. Their opponents were the New Orleans Privateers and they put up a fight at the beginning of the game. However, that fight didn't last long because the Hoosiers were able to get an 18-0 run before the first half was through. The final score came to 59-79 with junior guard Kevin ''Yogi'' Ferrell staring for the second time since Saturday. He put away 17 points and five rebounds. This win brings Indiana to 10-2. Hopefully they will be able to continue dominating as they travel to take on the Georgetown Hoyas in an away game on the 27th. Tickets start at $41.
12/16/14 - Indiana Hoosiers basketball is still standing atop the Big Ten, fresh off a blowout win over the Grand Canyon Antelopes on Saturday night. The Hoosiers led by 11 at halftime, and opened the second frame with a 10-4 run to start putting the game out of reach. Indiana freshman James Blackmon Jr. had 18 points to go with six assists, and forward Troy Williams contributed 14 points and seven rebounds as the Hoosiers improved to 8-2 for the season. A tough matchup looms for Indiana on Saturday, as the no. 23 Butler Bulldogs come to town looking to improve on their own 8-2 record. Great seats for the game can still be had via Razorgator—tickets start at $66, but they're going fast, so act now!
12/10/14 - The Indiana Hoosiers basketball team fell to the Louisville Cardinals, 94-74, Tuesday night in its second non-conference game at Madison Square Garden. Indiana was unable to match the physicality brought on by Louisville but there were stretches in the game where the Hoosiers gave more than a fair fight, even carrying a lead during the second half. The Hoosiers scored all season-highs with their 54.1 percentage of effective field goals and 0.96 points in scores per possession. The team trailed by only five points at halftime, but the Louisville defense came in strong, widening the lead by the end. The Hoosiers hope to bounce back at their next game, set for 5 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 13, against the Grand Canyon Antelopes at the Assembly Hall in Bloomington, Indiana. Be sure to get your tickets now for just $10.
12/3/14 - The Indiana Hoosiers basketball team is riding a wave of excitement after a big win against Pittsburgh Tuesday night. In a game that was predicted to be close matchup, the team pulled together and finished the night with an 81-69 lead over the Panthers. The leading scorer for the Hoosiers was Emmitt Holt. He came in to the game after Hanner Mosquera-Perea got into early foul trouble, and scored 15 points. With seven players earning at least six points each, they are showing that they can work together to win ball games. With an overall record of 6-1, they are becoming a force to be reckoned with in NCAA ball. The Hoosiers are up against Savvanah State next. They will face the Tigers December 6th, on their home court in Bloomington, Indiana.
11/25/14 - Riding a wave of momentum following their non-conference victory over Larry Brown's #22 SMU Mustangs, Coach Tom Crean and the Hoosiers are focused on returning to the big dance after a disappointing 2013-2014 season. Come out to historic Assembly Hall to cheer on the Hoosiers as they build on their 4-0 start to the season. With upcoming non conference home contests against such excellent teams as Pitt, Georgetown, and Butler, your Hoosiers have an excellent opportunity to get some statement wins ahead of their Big Ten conference schedule. Led by freshman phenom James Blackmon Jr. and junior Yogi Ferrell, the Hoosiers have what it takes to cause some serious damage in the Big Ten. With tickets to upcoming home games starting at just $10, Razorgator is the best place to secure your seats for Indiana Hoosiers Basketball.
11/19/14 - Indiana Hoosiers basketball fans are gearing up for what appears to be another great run by the team. With a 2-0 record out of the gate, the Hoosiers have demonstrated a fierce drive and determination to be number one. Last Monday's game against the Texas Southern University Tigers was no exception, with the team leading throughout the game before winning decisively, 83-64. Hoosiers freshman Robert Johnson was a standout during the game against the Tigers, scoring 17 points and 3 rebounds during the first half of the game. The Hoosiers return to Bloomington on Thursday, November 20, to face the Southern Methodist Mustangs, who have a record so far of 1-1. Tickets for the 8pm game at Assembly Hall are still available and range from $9 to $67.
11/12/14 - The Indiana Hoosiers Basketball team is starting their season this Friday, the 14th. Their first college basketball game will be against the Mississippi Valley State Delta Devil on the Hoosiers' home court in Bloomington, Indiana. This will be the second season in a row that they add more players than have return. Their seven new Freshmen additions are Jeremiah April, James Blackmon Jr., Max Hoetzel, Emmitt Holt, Robert Johnson, Tim Priller and freshman walk-on, Nate Ritchie. Ritchie won the Hoosier Hysteria dunk contest and has appeared in three games during their preseason. He's been displaying an impressive athleticism so far. Tickets for the Indiana Hoosiers' first game are still available starting at $4. The Hoosiers have a long series of home games coming up, so there's plenty of opportunity to cheer them on.
2013-2014 Season
2/7/14 – The Hoosiers are coming off a big win against No.10 Michigan; shooting 54 percent and getting big contributions from starters. Yogi Ferrell made seven of eight from beyond the arch and Noah Vonleh added a key 10 points and 12 rebounds to lead the unranked Hoosiers to a much needed upset. The second victory over a top 10 opponent, the Hoosiers helped their chances for an at-large berth to the NCAA tournament. But, they'll need more if they want to make the big dance. With nine games left in the season, four at home, come cheer on the men in candy-striped pants as they finish out Conference play at Assembly Hall. The Hoosiers are 13-4 at home this season and routinely put on a good show for their fans!
1/2/14 - The Hoosiers suffered a crushing loss to Notre Dame a couple weeks ago, followed by freshman center Luke Fischer's announcement of his leave to transfer to another school, but Indiana will bounce right back. With excellent play from Yogi Ferrell, the team's leading scorer, their prolific rebound margin abetted by improved play from freshman big man Noah Vonleh, Indiana is a formidable opponent for any Big Ten opponent. Considering the squad lost four of their five starters from last year, the young buck team is making up for their inexperience with speed: ranked 11th in pace, the Hoosiers play an incredibly quick game, and the boys have the green light to improve upon their 10-3 schedule with some conference play. In a couple weeks they'll have a rematch against the Illinois Fighting Illini who they lost to on the road New Years Eve. Get your Indiana Hoosiers tickets now! The next few weeks are critical for the Hoosiers, who must secure more key victories to advance them from the middle of the ranks in the Big Ten conference.
10/25/13 - Hoosier Hysteria is back in action! The annual first public practice granted some insight into this season's defending
Big Ten Champions
, a squad that is routinely one of the most promising basketball teams to come out of the Big Ten. With head coach Tom Crean, the Hoosiers have made the
NCAA tournament
for two consecutive years and are always in the Top 25. Last year, Indiana lost in the Sweet 16, despite being ranked in the top 5 for the majority of the season, but they will return for contention with a nearly all-new squad this year. The Hoosiers will take part in the
2K Sports Classic
at Madison Square Garden, squaring off against
in the first round (Nov 21). Indiana will avenge themselves on the road against
, who knocked them out of the Sweet 16 last season, on Dec 12 to start the Big Ten/ACC Challenge. They will also be playing
Michigan State
(Jan 4), who they swept in last year's Sweet 16. Once again, the renewed Indiana-Michigan rivalry will play out when they host the
, Feb 2, and on Dec 14, Indiana will again try their hand at the
Crossroads Classics
, this time, against
Notre Dame
. Playing 20 games at
Assembly Hall
this year, there are plenty of chances to catch the Hoosiers take the court by storm!
The Hoosiers have a promising group of young men donning the iconic candy-striped pants this year: Indiana will debut six freshman and three sophomores—a young team indeed. With the departure of Cody Zeller to the
Charlotte Bobcats
and Victor Oladipo to the
Orlando Magic
, newcomers Luke Fischer, with his stature and strength, and Noah Vonleh, the highest ranked recruit in his class, are expected to make big strides in their stead. They are corralled by the most experienced player on the court, senior Will Sheehey (last season's Big Ten Sixth Man of the Year), and sophomore Yogi Ferrell, one of the foremost point guards in the nation.

The Four Seasons Hotel was the setting for the 47th Annual Grand Auction Gala Visionnaire, hosted by the University of Chicago Cancer Research Foundation Women's Board along with Verdura and Ralph Lauren.
The Scene
The entire event honored the devoted physicians and researchers at the University of Chicago who pursue complex cancer research. Veteran researcher Dr. Janet Rowley received the 2013 Partners in Discovery Award for her important work linking genetics and cancer. But the other star of the evening was the grooving Bill Pollack Orchestra, who gave a backbeat to live and silent auctions featuring an eight-day safari in South Africa, a three-night stay in Lake Como and a custom alligator bag from Ralph Lauren.
The Highlights
More than $1,000,000 was raised for further efforts in cancer research at the University of Chicago Cancer Research Center. –Photos by Dan Rest, Cheri Eisenberg and Michelle Wodzinski Photography
