I swaddled my baby in a swaddling blanket for a short time after he was born, and then moved on to a Halo combination sleep sack and swaddle blanket. He is now nearly 3 months old, and I'm still using it (only at night). For the first few minutes he usually struggles a bit - mostly because he's not interested in going to sleep - but then he falls asleep and seems happy with it; I think it helps him to sleep more soundly but can't be sure. If I don't get to him fast enough in the morning, he usually manages to get one hand out, or sometimes both, and a thumb into his mouth. When should I stop swaddling him? (And after I stop swaddling him, should he still sleep in a sleep sack / wearable blanket? If so, for how long? I know 2-year-olds who are still in a sleep sack...)
Swaddle him as long as he will allow it - probably less than half a year in all, but of course that varies wildly. Then "upgrade" to a sleep sack and use that as long as possible - perhaps until 2 or 3 years old.
We tried swaddling and our son never liked it, so we never actually started. But he moves a lot at night (almost 2yo) and always did, so a blanket wouldn't work for him, especially when it's colder. He's always been in a sleep sack, and shows no dislike yet. (update: at nearly 22 months he suddenly disliked the sack and the crib; luckily it was a breeze to upgrade to a bed and blanket. YMMV.)
The idea with swaddling is to keep the limbs softly restrained, because infants can't control their movements well and swaddling helps them because they don't wake themselves up. Once they develop sufficient motor control, this benefit is moot and swaddling is not really needed but perhaps he will still like it (or not!).
The idea with the sleep sack is simpler; it's just to keep him covered so he won't get cold in the night. As with swaddling, he'll grow out of the need eventually. Even if he'd still kick a blanket off, for an older child (past about age one) that is no longer a serious concern as it was for an infant.
Every child is different and enjoys, seeks, and sometimes requires different environments. Some children can calm themselves best when they have deep sensory information from their muscles and joints. Swaddling is a great way to provide the support that they need.
As long as your child is comforted by swaddling the is no age limit for swaddling. But, most children and parents find that swaddling is not practical as a child's mobility increases and the urge to stand and move about creates a stressful or unsafe response. Follow your child's lead and make the transition when both of you feel ready.
When swaddling is no longer practical, tucking the covers under the mattress tightly, heavy blankets or curling into a ball or scrunching into the corner of the bed provides the same feeling for them. My son preferred tight fitting clothes, heavy boots, and coats for the same reason.
Parents who want to know more about sensory seeking behaviors can read more at http://www.sensory-processing-disorder.com/sensory-integration-activities.html As stated in this article, deep pressure activities are beneficial for all children and lots of fun as well.
Learning about sensory processing helped me understand and enjoy my son so much more because even though he was very bright, his body processed information differently. I've shared this information with hundreds of parents over the years, and many have benefited as much as I did.
Swaddling is mostly to help children cope with their "Moro Reflex". This is the arm jerking they do, which often wakes them up.
You should allow your child to get their arms out! Sucking their thumb is fine; they need to learn how to self-sooth, especially after waking in the night.
Swaddling can happen for as long as it's helpful to the baby. When it's time to wean from the swaddle, you can try swaddling one arm out/one arm in for a week. And then just swaddle around the torso with both arms out until baby seems ready to be in just a sleep sack.
It is helpful to try changes in a sleep routine for 3 nights. If there is no sign of improvement after 3 nights, then it probably isn't time for that change and you could wait a few more weeks before trying it again.
As for the sleep sacks, one time to stop is during potty training so the toddler can get up at night on their own. There are sleep sacks that are made from a heavy, duvet like material. Some babies who loved to be swaddled like these heavier sleep sacks because of the weight. Of course the temperature of the room should be compatible with the weight of the sleep sack.
Your baby will let you know. Each of my four started to struggle in the swaddle, wanting more freedom. Unfortunately, they still needed the swaddle to help them sleep. Swaddling does help with the startle reflex and with the womb effect. Thankfully we used the magic sleepsuit when we could no longer swaddle and all my babies slept great because it helped keep them calm and prevented the startle from waking them. Good luck,
One of ours loved being swaddled and only slept really soundly when she was swaddled. We stopped doing it around 6 months but even there, she was happiest with the blanket on her cot tucked very tightly round the mattress. Even now she likes a full cover.
Our other two always wanted a bit more movement so were happy in the sleep sack things, and they both like to have at least one leg out of the covers (at 5 and 11 now)
We have had good luck swaddling our boy from the arm-pits down. We did a full swaddle until probably about 2 months but then he seemed very keen on having his arms mobile. I imagine it may work because he still feels secure (from the chest down), but has the ability to move his arms. He is now 6 months old and we still swaddle him this way. Since he rolls over now, he actually prefers to sleep on his side, sucking his thumb. This would not be possible with a full swaddle.
we used a sleep sack that was for swaddle transition - our twins were ADDICTED to their miracle blankets, but started escaping and not sleeping, it was so frustrating, this was expensive, but worked and was amazing and we used them till the girls were 17months instead of blankets!! www.pekemoe.co.nz - hope it helps!
We stopped swaddling once our LO was about 4 months old and could roll both ways. It was a safety issue at that point. We have used the Zipadee-zip ever since and looove it! She feels cozy, secure and can use the zippy up to 2 years old which is amazing! She sleeps so well in it, all night. Its the perfect solution when transitiong out of the swaddle!
Your Baby will tell you when he/she is ready to stop swaddling. They will start to roll or kick and squirm out of the swaddle. The real question is are they ready let go of the need for swaddle even though they can escape the swaddle? You will know this as well as they will not sleep as well or as long. Sometimes the moro reflex will continue to wake them. Sometimes they need the secure feeling of he swaddle.

I just got these awesome Wald rear folding baskets as an early christmas present from my Girlfriend. The hardware they came with will not fit on my Batavus Fryslan Rack. What would be the best way to mount them?

After posting this question, I got a twitter response from my local bike shop where I got my Batavus. They suggested screw clamps, and I agreed it was the best choice and mounted my rack with them. Urbanistic tea and bike is awesome!
This video really helped me with a milk crate mounting. Using the same concept with nylon string, I would expect you could attach your folding basket, only attaching to the non-moving portion.
I would use a combination of baling wire and zip ties. I never rely on zip ties alone in a load bearing application. Zip ties will hold the basket tight and the baling wire will act as a failsafe. Use a load rated zip tie and inspect attachment points regularly. Replace zip ties as they break.
Alternatively you can probably find larger p clamps at your local hardware store that will fit your rack.

Storm's Wrath Lingers for Suburbs
L.I., Conn. Governments Ask for Patience as Schools Close, Workers Clear Roads
The crippling aftermath of a record-breaking blizzard promised to stretch on for days, forcing dozens of school districts to close on Long Island and in Connecticut and threatening delays on the region's transportation network on Monday morning.
Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy, whose state contended with the highest snowfall totals from Friday's storm, asked the public for patience as government workers toiled to remove as much as three feet of snow from neighborhood streets.
Photos: Nemo Lands in New York City
Mr. Malloy implored people to work from home or arrange car pools to reduce traffic, as a freezing rainstorm on Monday morning was expected to make driving treacherous. Meanwhile, Metro-North was planning to run limited service on the New Haven and Bridgeport lines that carry Connecticut commuters into New York City.
"I know that people are impatient, but I remind everyone that this is a record snowfall the likes of which our state has never seen or not seen since the 1880s," Mr. Malloy said at a Sunday evening news conference.
On Long Island, where Suffolk County experienced record-breaking snowfalls of up to 33 inches, the state sent more than 500 pieces of snow-removal equipment to help make roads passable again. The region's main artery, the Long Island Expressway, was shut down for most of Sunday for cleaning, but many residents said they hadn't seen a plow in their neighborhoods.
Their commutes were also uncertain: Long Island Rail Road officials said weekday service would be "near normal" but acknowledged that some station parking lots hadn't been plowed and told riders to allow extra time to get to work.
"There are going to be weather delays," said Sal Arena, an LIRR spokesman.
The freezing rain is supposed to begin around 4 a.m. Monday. Later, temperatures are expected to rise to above 40 degrees in much of the region, possibly causing some flooding.
"It's a nuisance event with people still digging out, it's somewhat of a hindrance," said Kenneth James, a National Weather Service meteorologist.
The storm was blamed for eight deaths in New York and Connecticut. Mr. Malloy said the storm caused six roofs to collapse and more than 400 traffic accidents reported to the State Police, 36 resulting in injuries.
The storm's wrath largely bypassed New York City, blanketing Central Park with 11.4 inches of snow but causing few disruptions. Metropolitan Transportation Authority officials said the subway would be running normally on Monday. Alternate-side parking rules are suspended.
Scores of public and private schools in Connecticut and Long Island planned to remain closed Monday, including the University of Connecticut and Yale University, and some said they wouldn't reopen until Wednesday.
"[Most] roads are still impassable," Dr. Marianne Higuera, superintendent of Miller Place School District in Suffolk, said in a note to parents.
Utility companies said they had restored electricity to tens of thousands of customers who lost power over the weekend. About 16,000 remained in the dark in Connecticut Sunday evening, said officials who hoped to restore power before the end of the night. About 3,800 had no electricity in New York on Sunday.
Cleaning up after the massive storm proved to be a frustrating task for municipal officials and residents.
In Milford, Conn., a Long Island Sound community where 38 inches of snow fell, sport-utility vehicles and trucks rigged with plows prowled the streets. Mr. Malloy dispatched hundreds of National Guard members to Milford to help with the recovery, and by Sunday the town's main thoroughfares were mostly cleared.
Some side streets and less-trafficked areas remained buried. Many businesses downtown were closed.
Fayez Ghaly, 51 years old, of East Haven, Conn., had to close his gas station USA Fuel on Friday night and hadn't reopened by Sunday. "The driveway is still too packed," he said.
A customer drove up and asked if he could use the bathroom.
"It's closed, unless you can make it through four feet of snow," said Mr. Ghaly.
On Long Island, residents were shoveling out their driveways, checking on neighbors and returning to hundreds of cars they had abandoned in the thick of the storm.
Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone said that all county roads had been plowed, but patience was wearing thin in communities such as Lake Grove, a village about an hour east of Manhattan, where the side streets hadn't been cleared. Some residents used their own snow plows to clean sections of their blocks so they could go to work on Monday.
"If it's this late already, two days after the storm, and they still haven't got trucks here yet, that's a problem," said Dario Dameo, 48, of Lake Grove. "We've never seen anything like this. It's never been this bad, the response."
The county was directing state workers to aid some towns that needed help plowing, Mr. Bellone said. "It's still tough out there," he said. "We're not catching a lot of breaks."

I know it's different than most Christian faiths' beliefs, and I know the missionaries teach it... I know it's a big part of Mormon curriculum and doctrine, and this site is replete with questions about seemingly every part of it, but would someone connect the dots and piece it together here in an overall summary? Why is it needed in LDS doctrine, what questions does it answer?

The LDS Plan of Salvation can be found on the official LDS website here.
In summary, the following are the main points:
This, of course, only scratches the surface, and the LDS Plan of Salvation encompasses not only salvation, but exaltation.
The most basic LDS explanation of what Salvation is:
There are actually six definitions of Salvation in LDS theology, all defined here. (Click the "view more" link.)
A somewhat shorter version than the one linked to at the beginning of the article can be found here.
As for how one achieves Salvation, the teaching differs from mainstream Christianity. Whereas the vast majority of Christianity believes that salvation is by Faith alone, with no works attached, LDS teaching is different. In LDS theology, only General Salvation is attained through Faith in Christ alone.
Assistant to the Council of the Twelve July 1972:
So the general salvation is through faith in Christ alone, but that's just the beginning. There are, in Salvation, more than one level of Glory, which is, as stated above "conditioned not only upon grace, but also upon obedience to gospel law.".
However, this is not seen within LDS teaching as a works-based salvation, even at this level. There is somehow, in LDS theology a difference between obedience, and earning your way in. More from the article quoted above expands upon this.
But later on in the article, Burton again teaches that works are a result of faith. But the fact remains that in LDS theology, works are required. Perhaps not as a way of "buying" our way in, but as a sign, in that, if we don't have works, it's a sure sign that we don't have faith. Often, the following is quoted as support for this belief.
And also, the lack of good works/righteousness as a sign of not really being Faithful is stressed in Matthew 15:8, which is heard in almost every Sunday School class I attended when I was attending the LDS Church.
Burton goes on to define those works:
Burton expands a bit on those who do not obey the Law in full:
This is the opposite of Mainstream Christianity, which believes that as imperfect beings, we cannot be fully obedient, and thus is the distinction - the splitting of hairs between the "mainstream" understanding of "by faith alone". Mainstream Christianity says "I can never be good enough to add a single iota to my salvation. I am miserable and wretched, and I rely solely on God's mercy because even my righteousness is as filthy rags to Him." The LDS teaching, on the other hand, is that we must be fully obedience, and we are able to be fully obedient, and those that achieve this attain the highest form of exaltation.
It's hard to follow after David's very good, exhaustive answer, but here is a different approach, which emphasizes more the procedural flow of it as a literal "plan" (David's first few bullet points).
My answer is a summary, or in some cases, a re-statement, of what is found in the LDS missionary manual, Preach My Gospel (Chapter 3, Lesson 2). All references and/or quotes would point there.
The Plan of Salvation is God's plan for the salvation of His children (us). The Plan of Salvation has been on the earth whenever the Gospel of Jesus Christ is revealed in its fulness. It answers three main questions:
LDS theology teaches that the fulness of the Plan of Salvation is in the Bible and Book of Mormon together: that one without the other is, in a sense, incomplete.
Premortal life
We are God's children. We lived with God as spirits before we came to earth. We weren't like God, because we didn't have the glory, experience, and power that He has. Since God loves all His children, and is in fact our heavenly parent, He wants us to "grow" and become like Him.
In the center of God's plan is Jesus Christ, who would suffer the Atonement to redeem each of us so that we may return to live with God, and be like Him, to have immortality and eternal life. We chose to accept this plan before we came to Earth.
Of course, Satan (the devil) is an enemy to God's plan. He rebelled and was cast out. We were given agency in our pre-mortal dwelling, which is the free will, or power, to choose. We must choose to follow Christ or follow Satan. Since we chose to come to earth and accept God's plan, we would be separated from His presence for a very important purpose.
To carry out the plan, Jesus Christ created heaven and earth, as a place for us to come and be separated from God's physical presence, where we would forget our pre-earth life, gain experience and learn to walk by faith and not by sight. The creation was for us (and God's joy), and it is one of the most glorious events of eternity.
Adam and Eve
God placed Adam and Eve on the earth, in the Garden of Eden, as the first two of His children to obtain physical bodies. They had agency, and lived in God's presence, but were innocent while in the garden. They did not know good from evil.
They were commanded to multiply and replenish the earth. God also commanded Adam and Eve to not eat of the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. While they obeyed this commandment, they could live in God's presence, but they could not progress by experiencing opposition. They couldn't be happy because they couldn't be sad in contrast.
Well, we all know what comes next. Adam and Eve were tempted by Satan to eat the forbidden fruit, and they did so. They were cast out of God's presence, and became subject to death: physical death, which means that their bodies would eventually die, and spiritual death, or separation from God. This is called the Fall, and it is vital to God's plan, and was no surprise to God. (The Atonement was prepared to redeem men from it.)
Adam and Eve could now choose between good and evil (they now had moral agency), which means they could learn and progress spiritually, and continue to carry out the plan. They could also have children, so the rest of God's spirit children could obtain bodies and come to earth.
They were taught the gospel, so they could know of Jesus Christ and the Atonement which would be to come. Thus, they were able to repent.
Earth life
Here in mortality, we have great opportunities and blessings to learn, gain valuable experience which we could have no other way, and eventually become like our Heavenly Father.
Our experiences here should teach us and our righteous choices will bring us joy. Following God's path and commandments will bring us happiness, whereas following Satan's temptations will draw us away from God and bring us sorrow.
We have two major obstacles to overcome while here. One is physical death: God has a perfect, glorified physical body, and we must have one to be like He is, and it must never die. The other is spiritual death (sin): we make mistakes here on earth because we are tempted by Satan, and because we are out of God's presence, the flesh is subject to carnal nature. We cannot overcome either by ourselves.
We must follow and accept the gospel of Jesus Christ in its fulness, by having faith, repenting, being baptized, receiving the Gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end. But even that would not be enough without Jesus Christ.
The Atonement
Jesus Christ came in the meridian of time to accomplish what is the most significant, important, earth-shattering (literally) event in all of history: the Atonement.
Since we cannot become like God on our own from our fallen state (with sin and death), we need not only a perfect example to follow, but we also need a Redeemer who can save us from both sin and death. Jesus Christ was chosen in the pre-mortal life to perform the Atonement.
To save us from death, Christ laid down His life on the cross and suffered (a vile form of) death. He was then resurrected, which loosed the bands of death and opened the gate for all others to be resurrected. All who have lived on Earth -- past, present or future, good or evil -- will eventually be resurrected and receive a perfect, glorified, immortal body of flesh and bone, thanks to the Savior's resurrection.
We also need to be saved from sin. The Atonement covers this as well. Christ paid the penalty of sin for all of us so that we can accept His terms and be forgiven, and made as new. Of course, it doesn't mean we don't have responsibility: we must follow His gospel, and then through the Atonement we can return to live with God.
Spirit World
As we die, our bodies and spirits separate. Our spirits go to a place known as the Spirit World. This is a necessary part of God's plan, since we must be transformed from mortality to immortality. It doesn't change who we are, our desires for good or evil, or our personalities, it is simple a change of state from physical to spiritual.
For those who lived good, respectable lives, it is a sweet experience, and they will live in joy and happiness, and have rest from their troubles and sorrows. Those who chose not to obey the gospel or lived lives contrary to it (and did not repent) will be consigned to a state of misery and pay for their sins. The gospel is preached to all who did not receive it on Earth. (This is the purpose for LDS temple and family history work.)
Resurrection and Judgment
Eventually, all will be resurrected: their physical bodies will re-unite with their spirits never again to be separated. This is a mercy of the Atonement, and will be given first to the righteous, then later to the wicked. Through this, we overcome physical death. This is immortality, but not necessarily eternal life, which is living immortally in the presence of God. (This is not re-incarnation.)
We will be judged and rewarded "according to our works and our desires." (to quote PMG). Eternal life is granted to those who do all that is required of them and live their lives such that they earn exaltation, which is living with God in eternal families. This is knowing God and Jesus Christ, and being like them.
Kingdoms of Glory
Depending on how we lived our lives, we will be given an eternal abode in one of the three kingdoms of glory. Essentially, our bodies will resurrect and inherit a glory compatible to how we lived and who we have become, thanks to Jesus Christ.
It's good to note that each individual will be comfortable with the kingdom which they obtain, since that is the quality of life they chose to live. (For instance, a beggar would not be comfortable in a mansion! -- that's not an LDS analogy, that's my own comment.)
The lowest level of glory is called the Telestial Kingdom. It is compared to the glory of the stars (which are nice to look at, but don't emit much light; they don't illuminate). People who "continued in their sins and did not repent in this life" will be rewarded here (which, it's said, is still more glorious than this earth is currently).
People who lived good lives but did not accept the fulness of the gospel will inherit the Terrestrial Kingdom, compared to the glory of the moon.
But those who lived good lives, and did accept the fulness of the gospel, who were washed of all their sins, will live with God and Jesus Christ in the Celestial Kingdom. Those who qualify for exaltation through the new and everlasting covenant of marriage (eternal marriage in a temple) will receive the highest degree in the Celestial Kingdom, and literally become like God, and have all that He has. This reward is achieved by making and keeping sacred covenants. These will receive a fulness of joy.

Which Name Gets Your Vote? Top 12 U.S. President-Inspired Baby Names
No matter your political persuasion, you must admit that some U.S. presidents' names happen to make very cool baby names — for both boys and girls. Check out our list of the best president-inspired baby names, from Kennedy to Theodore, and see which ones land on your ballot.
1 of 14
Historical rankings of the U.S. presidents usually show that Abraham Lincoln is the most popular Commander in Chief of all time. So it's surprising that while Lincoln lives in infamy in our history books, his surname has yet to break into the mainstream for U.S. baby names. Too big of a legacy, maybe? Or maybe not... Baby name charts show that Lincoln is on the rise so far this century. Actors Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard named their daughter Lincoln in 2013, and Bill Murray named his son Lincoln in 2001. Lincoln means "home by the pond" in Old English, which adds to its cool factor.

Season Outlook: BaseballJanuary 21, 2014
ANDERSON, S.C. – With the 2014 baseball season quickly approaching, Anderson University baseball looks to bounce back after a disappointing 2013 campaign, as the Trojans begin their slate with their home opener against UNC Pembroke on Feb. 1.
Anderson began the 2013 season with a slow start and was unable to recover, closing the year with a 17-33 overall record and tying for eighth place in the South Atlantic Conference standings, failing to advance to the six-team conference tournament. Head Coach Joe Miller seeks to put last season behind them and move toward the bright future.
"When this time of the year comes around, we start counting down the days until opening day," Miller said. "We're getting a lot of guys back from injury and with the addition of our new players makes everybody ready to go."
Eight seniors headline a roster that holds a wealth of experience and a handful of newcomers who will be asked to play right away. Senior Thomas Goodman, who saw action on the mound and at the plate a season ago, will be slotted into the weekend rotation and could compete to be a Friday starter. Goodman closed the 2013 season with a 4-4 record in 49.1 innings, carrying a 4.93 ERA.
Goodman will join juniors Spencer Earle and JT Trujillo and sophomore David Thompson to round out the weekend rotation. Following last season, Earle was a member of the Berkeley Lake Tides where he went 3-1 with a 1.88 ERA in seven starts on the hill. For his efforts, Earle was named the league's Player of the Week once. Trujillo made 10 starts for AU a season ago and earned two victories.
Out of the bullpen, the Trojans bring back sophomore Landon Beck after earning second team All-SAC honors a season ago. Beck finished last season with eight saves, tying for the second-most in the conference, while holding a 3.09 ERA with 34 strikeouts in 32 innings.
Joining Beck in relief will be a heavy load of right-handers including returnee Evan Jordan. Jordan, who saw action in 13 games, recorded a 4.19 ERA in 19.1 innings with 19 strikeouts. Senior Will Walls will also see time out of the bullpen as the lone senior relief pitcher.
"We have experience with our starters and in the backend of the bullpen, the question mark will be in middle relief," Miller said. "We don't have a lot of experience with the guys that will throw in the sixth, seventh or eighth innings. There are plenty of arms out there and there will plenty of opportunities for guys to step in and win a role in middle relief."
In the lineup, the Trojans return four of their everyday starters from a year ago, including sophomore Steven Cooper who led AU in batting average (.309), triples (3) and ranked in the top five in all offensive categories. Cooper will be joined in the lineup by a trio of seniors in the outfield with Paul Como, Josh Hickman and Nathan Galliford. Hickman and Como both hit over .300 last season, as the tandem combined for 103 hits, 23 doubles and five home runs. Galliford, who started 42 games in 2013, hit .257 with a .449 slugging percentage and tied for the team-lead in home runs with five. Junior Ryan Mills will also see some time in the outfield hitting .293 a season ago.
Two key additions to the lineup are Division I transfers Garrett Bernardo and LJ Newman. Bernardo spent the 2013 season with Maine where he was part of a 37-22 team that advanced to the America East Conference title game. Newman comes to Anderson after spending two seasons with USC Upstate where he was a two-way player and was named to the Atlantic Sun All-Academic Team. Newman could share time behind the plate at catcher along with seniors Ben Pendleton and Jonathan Zalud.
"We brought in four transfers for this season, which is typically a high number for us," Miller said. "We like bringing in those guys with experience and they'll add depth to our roster and they'll hopefully make a difference on the field."
Also returning to the Trojan lineup are senior Shawn Delmontagne and junior Brett Cash who combined for 49 starts a season ago with Delmontagne closing the year with a .286 batting average and a .490 slugging percentage as he battled injuries throughout the year. Cash, who has started 80 games mostly at shortstop through two seasons with AU, ranked fifth on the team in hits with 36 and carried an average of .242. Cash's highlight of the 2013 season came against Carson-Newman on April 13 when he bashed two home runs with four RBI and three runs scored leading the Trojans to an 8-6 win and eventual series win.
"If we can stay healthy, I look at one of two guys that were hitting third or fourth for us last season with our injuries could be hitting seventh or eighth this season," Miller said. "We're going to have some depth in our lineup this year with guys that are able to swing it one through nine. Offensively, we have the potential to be one of the strongest ball clubs that I've had here at Anderson, we just have to perform."
Anderson's coaching staff is excited about its newcomers to the roster as 11 freshmen begin their collegiate careers in 2014. Five new right-handers will be joining the bullpen as Austin Cashwell (Greer, S.C. / Brunswick CC), Hunter Crompton (Easley, S.C. / Wren), Nicholas Reyer (Silver Springs, Md. / Washington Christian Academy), Austin Smith (Westminster, S.C. / West Oak) and Daulten Stewart (Pickens, S.C. / Pickens) look to provide depth in relief. Three infielders and outfielders join the roster as Justin Kenley (Indian Trail, N.C. / Metrolina Christian Academy), Darion Restrepo (Miami, Fla. / Miami Springs) and Xavier Peralta (Aiken, S.C. / South Aiken) could see time in the lineup immediately.
In the outfield, three players who played their high school careers in South Carolina as Storm Grisham (Hilton Head Island, S.C. / Hilton Head), Matthew Powell (Belton, S.C. / Belton-Honea Path) and William Thomas (Dublin, Ohio / Dutch Fork (S.C.)) look to provide depth to an experienced outfield.
Coker, which advanced to the NCAA Division II World Series last season, enters the SAC after moving into the league from Conference Carolinas. With the addition, the SAC will look to earn multiple positions in the NCAA Regionals. Coker joins favorites Tusculum, Wingate and Catawba to headline the conference. Lincoln Memorial, which claimed the conference tournament title a season ago also looks to continue its recent success. The Trojans look to be in the tournament discussion in April.
"We want to try and erase the memories we had from the 2013 season," Miller said. "With 11 teams in the conference, every weekend it doesn't matter who is playing who and I think it's going to a matter of who stays healthy. Every weekend it will be a dog fight to make it into the top six in the conference to advance to the conference tournament."
Anderson opens its season on Saturday, Feb. 1 when it welcomes UNC Pembroke to Anderson Memorial Stadium. First pitch of the doubleheader is set for 1 p.m.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (WBKO) - After months of delays and waiting it appears that the Warren County Aquatic Center may be saved. A sub-lease agreement with Commonwealth Health Corporation was approved Friday morning at Warren County Fiscal Court.
"The pool is saved. The contract that we have with CHC is to extend the operation of the pool for 12 months and then if the operation goes well there is a clause in there that could allow for a 36 month renewal," says Warren County Parks & Recreation Director Chris Kummer.
In the lease agreement Commonwealth Health Corporation has agreed to pay Warren County $14,700 a month. In return, the organization can use the pool for the rehabilitation of patients. Officials with Commonwealth Health says it's a win for everyone.
"It will benefit not only the entire community by allowing them to continue to have access to the pool but will also benefit those patients who are recuperating from arthritis or injuries," says Executive Vice President Sarah Moore.
Commonwealth Health isn't the only organization hoping to have more swimmers hit the water. Community Education is also on board as a partner. They say they will offer zumba, scuba and diving classes this summer.
In the past, the pool has been plagued with low attendance numbers which forced the county to cut it from its budget. Now, Parks & Recreation Director Chris Kummer is confident with help the pool will now survive.
"I think it's going to be a win win for everybody. I would hope our participation would go from 110 up to about 300 in the next 12 months," says Kummer.
New hours at the pool will begin Monday. In the coming weeks the pool is expected to change rates and offer more membership opportunities for swimmers and families.

First off, I'm unimpressed that I had to create yet another account that will no doubt become dorment in no time just to ask for advice on this issue...may be an idea to allow guest posts for support (from experience this actually reduces the amount of spam a thriving community receives as it cuts down the number of robot registrations/pm's)
Anyway, the issue I'm having is that the code I added seems fine in the preview, but doesn't display properly in the actual post (I'd intended to add screenshots but you've disabled file attachments - but you can see the full post here). This is the case with both the post excerpt and the full post when opened... Any ideas?

Rear Window
The first film we watched in our film class, to represent the height of the "classical" period of film-making, was Rear Window, by Alfred Hitchcock. It is (so I learned) a meditation on voyeurism--and what is watching films, arguably, but a type of voyeurism. The key moment of the critique of voyeurism--a critique of watching instead of living--is how Jimmy Stewart's character cowers behind his nurse's skirts as his girlfriend Grace Kelly is apparently about to get killed by Raymond Burr. All he has to do to stop him is to yell--across the courtyard--"I see you, stop!" Instead, he says nothing. He's impotent (in more than one sense, apparently).Any thoughts? Are we still voyeuristic?

I recall that in that scene, Grace Kelly and Perry Mason, I mean Raymond Burr, are not just across the courtyard, but inside another apartment, and hence Stewart's frustration is that he can't yell so as to be heard through the windows. Am I wrong?
I think Stuart is right about his not being able to yell. But you make out Jimmy Stewart to be a wimpy voyeurr??? I'm out of here!
Windows are open. Yeah, film school is tough.
If you think that's wrenching, try watching "The Conversation".
Freaky stuff. Classic Hitchcock. Of course we are voyeuristic. The popularity of so-called reality tv is testament enough. Have we become more interested in observing attrocious behavior than acting spontaneously against it? Probably. But Ihave no off-the-cuff explanation as to why.
Cathleen, I don't think that "watching films," per se, is "a type of voyeurism."Watching erotica, porn, or sensual/sexual scenes from a mainstream or independent film may be voyeuristic, but I can't associate voyeurism with watching, for example, a Western, a horror flick, sci-fi, etc. unless, of course, such films include scenes that lend themselves to --- well --- voyeurism!
What is voyeurism? Is every case of A watches B doing C an instance of voyeurism? We could argue over the definition, true, but without a tentative definition the discussion will go nowhere.
Voyeurism, I think, is defined as a) a deliberate and sustained attempt to watch other people b) in situations which they expect to be private, c) while remaining unobserved oneself, d) for purposes that are not purely instrumental to discovering a suspected fact.So. . . a private investigator is not a voyeur. Neither is an undercover cop.
Is photography a form of voyeurism?The opening scene of "Rear Window" shows the photo that resulted in Stewart's broken leg -- a stray wheel from a crashing race car careening towards the camera. This seems to symbolize reality destroying the barrier between the voyeuristic photographer and subject.
That's interesting--and much of the dialogue talks about how voyeurism is dangerous to the soul. The movie, incidentally, doesn't end all that well. He's asleep, doubly broken, and she's bored-reading Bazaar. In a way, what we've just seen is bizarre and a bazaar (little booths) of human life.
I'm trying to remember the scene - if Stewart had yelled, wouldn't Burr also have heard him?I agree that the film is, in a sense, a meditation on voyeurism. I disagree that the act of watching a film is itself a form of voyeurism. A film like "Rear Window" is a drama - a very ancient literary and performance form - on a technological platform. I don't think it's voyeuristic to watch a drama. There are reasons for drama, e.g. the catharsis experienced from watching a tragedy.
I think that's the point==Burr would have heard him, and stopped.
Jim: Actors in a drama, or actors in general have no expectation of privacy when they are acting--quite the contrary.Cathleen: Sounds like a good definition. What about this? Someone is doing something on a deck or behind a picture window in full view of any neighbor who happens to face in an otherwise appropriate direction. If the neighbor takes note of and becomes interested in odd or possibly criminal behavior, is that voyeurism. What about behavior that is merely entertaining. Suppose the neighbor is an exhibitionist.
The Stewart character starts out like most photographers, who see without bearing witness. Initially, he's concerned with the image and remains at an emotional remove from the reality behind it. Over the course of the film, he's gradually enveloped by that reality.
I'm with Joe J. on this and I think Hitchcock was the master of sending chills and suspense.A look at his body of work would be a worthwhile affort if you haven't seen his picture\es -I mention above all the glorious "Spellbound" and the chilling "Strangers on a Train."Now if you want to discss voyeurism, how about the old TV series "Twin Peaks?"
Hitchcock also had a mischievious penchant for mocking audience expectations by either killing off the star (Janet Leigh) or casting good guys as perverse villains. i.e., Joseph Cotton (Shadow of a Doubt), Robert Walker (Strangers...), grandfatherly Edmund Gwenn as the murderous body guard in Foreign Correspondent, Cary Grant (Suspiscion), etc. The ending of Suspicion was changed at the last minute when the studio got cold feet about tampering with Grant's on-screen personna.What's more, Hitchcock loved to mock other sacred icons, such as the presidential images during the chase scene on Mt. Rushmore or the Statue of Liberty in Saboteur.In that regard, Truffaut's interview of Hitchcock makes for interesting reading.
If you want to discuss voyeurism, see the Matrix movies, which is about a group of semiconscious people in a darkened room watch motionless while all action plays out in their minds.Seriously, Hitchcock is a better choice than almost anything.
Speaking of Hitchcock and icons, Pauline Kael observed that the villain in "The 39 Steps" resembled non other than FDR.

12 Pregnancy Superfoods
3 of 14
Enriched Whole-Grain Cereal
Pregnancy is not the time to go on a diet, such as a low-carb eating plan. Your body needs six to 10 servings of grain products throughout pregnancy. Opt for cereals with the words "whole" or "whole grain" up high in the ingredient list to get the most fiber and nutrients from hearty wheat, barley, and oats in your breakfast. Most cereals are enriched with folate — which is crucial for fetal development - and other vitamins and minerals you need, so low-sugar cereal is a wise meal or snack for women on the go.

Do you think the logger would easily be able to log instead to the localStorage rather than the console?
Perhaps then the viewer portion could have a listener to localStorage changes and refreshing it's store?
This way a second debug browser tab would be able to persist the log across page loads.
Perhaps a controller object could watch and prune the localStorage to 'occurrence' and 'duration' limit settings per category?
Is this close to where your headed with the code?
Does is sound viable?
27 Aug 2012 8:27 AM #22
Appenders are in charge of sending log messages to the final destination, be it the browser console, the built-in viewer, a remote server or local storage. You will be able to write your own appender by taking a look at the ExtLogAppender and LogViewerAppender implementations.
Viewing data stored in the local storage in the built in viewer will be a different business, as you will be handling old stored logs, not logs as they are created, which is what the viewer is written for.
Anyway, as an idea, you might get what you want by a) creating an appender inheriting from LogViewerAppender that writes logs both to the built-in viewer and the local storage. Then, b), you should create your own viewer inheriting from LogViewerWindow: whenever an instance is created, it will load old logs in the local storage, giving the appearance that the view has not been destroyed across pages, and new logs will be written both to the local storage and the viewer...
Connect you new appender and viewer, and voila, you should be able to use them the way you use the built-in viewer and appender.
Just a quick idea, other approaches will work too... But it looks relatively easy to do, as most functionality is already there, so you might want to give it a try.
BTW, handling logs across pages seems a useful use case for some users (not for my typical scenario, though), and I will consider adding it at some later moment -no promise, though, and in any case it can't be before I implemented remote server logging, which I hope I will provide in September/October.

Excellent library! Is it possible to add another column called 'Elapsed' to the right of the 'Time' column that would display the time difference between when the current log event occurred and the previous log event occurred? This would be very helpful. Thanks!
8 Nov 2012 10:13 AM #24
Excellent library............
I only have one suggestion.............it could be possible to add a level config to the AppenderBase class.....
that´s way we can log message at specific level according the appender

Home Residence Requirement
What is the effect of being subject to the home residency requirement? The 212(e) or the home country physical presence requirement is a statute that requires that individuals of the J status must reside and be physically present in the country of nationality for an aggregate of two years following his or her departure from the U.S. before they are eligible for an immigrant, H or L visas, or to change status in the U.S., except for A (diplomatic) and G (international organization) statuses. An exchange visitor subject to the 212(e) may return home and apply for a visa as a tourist, business, or an F-1 student, but the requirement will still carry until the two year home residency is met.
How do I know if I have the requirement? A consular officer or DHS official will decide if you are subject to the 212(e) and mark it on the DS-2019 and/or the J-1 visa. There are three cases that may mean that you are subject:
- Government Financing: Includes financial support through an agency of the government of the U.S. or through a home country.
- Skills List: If the education that you are coming to pursue is in a field that the home government requested be on the State Department Exchange Visitor Skills List because it is a field of specialized knowledge that is needed for the development of that country. Learn more about the Skills List at the U.S. Department of State web site.
- Graduate Medical Education or Training.
How can I be waived from the requirement if I am subject? Our office does not assist with the waiver process, nor do we advise on this matter. In most cases, we recommend that you request support from an attorney that specializes in immigration law. The exchange visitor or attorney can request a written advisory opinion from the DOS Waiver Review Division if there is doubt about being subject to the 212(e). For more information concerning the procedure to obtain a waiver, please refer to the U.S. Department of State, "Waiver of the Exchange Visitor (J) Two-year Foreign Residence Requirement."

Bollella believes that developers have only scratched the surface when it comes to Java for embedded and that Java's multi-core support, security, multi-platform support, and networking strengths are of great value for embedded developers.
As he states in the interview, "To create new projects we want to create a VM and library set and some tools to entice the embedded developer to use Java for their next project. So that's my mission."
To integrate embedded devices into a networked world is no small task. From the interview:
"You need a fairly complex software architecture to integrate these devices into the networked world. Doing that from scratch is pretty tough. Oracle can provide the client side piece, the piece in the device, as well as the backend servers and the middleware. That, combined with a very small amount of engineering from the device manufacturers, can enable them to collect operational data on the device, time-stamp it, save it to the local data base, and have that data be automatically synced with the backend database and thus available for analysis and provision of new services for the device owner."

El Dorado Middle School counselor Sue Potter is continuing her battle against breast cancer. As of last week, she had had the first two of what will be eight chemotherapy treatments.
With that, came another aspect of the disease. Potter had reached the point it was time to shave her head.
An announcement had been made to the students the day before that Mrs. Potter was going to be having a new look the next day.
Potter came to work the next day wearing her scarf to soften her "new look" somewhat.
What came next was completely unexpected.
"I couldn't believe it," Potter said. "I just walked in the door this morning and they came in in groves."
She was referring to the eleven students who had shaved their heads and the six teachers who also were sporting the look. In addition, several of the female teachers were wearing turbins.
"It is a blessing," Potter said.
The students had the idea to shave their heads after hearing the announcement because they thought it would be a nice thing to do for their counselor.
"It's all for you," Evan VanArsdale told Potter.
Following Potter's eight chemo treatments she will then undergo five weeks of radiation.

I recently read Lyle MDonald's article here about the relaitve merits of exercise versus dieting for fat loss. He makes the argument (with numbers to back up his case) that in terms of calories lost, exercise will achieve far less than a disciplined diet will. This actually makes sense to me on a gut level (pardon the pun) as over the years I never felt exercise made as much an impact on my fat levels as dieting did. So it's good to read a more formalised argument for the case. My question is: does he have facts right?

If you compare the number of calories you can burn per hour exercising to the calories you can consume per hour eating, eating definitely wins out. It's so easy to "undo" the weight-loss benefits of exercise. Even running pretty hard for half an hour, I probably only burn 300-400 Calories (table estimating Caloric expenditure), but I could go home and eat all those Calories back in a matter of minutes (e.g. .5 to .75 cups of trail mix or 2 glasses of orange juice or 1-3 slices of pizza). And running is one of the higher Calorie-burners!
That said, certain types of exercise, such as weight training, raise your metabolism so you burn more calories while you're sitting around doing nothing (more info in another answer). To me, that's a big plus. Drastically decreasing food intake, on the other hand, may actually lower metabolic rate (more info on Livestrong).
People generally have more success when they combine diet and exercise to lose weight (Source). I like doing a combination of both because if you only change your diet, or to only change your exercise regimen, you to have to go really hardcore to get results. If you do a combination of both you can go a little easier on each, which makes it more achievable.
I believe he is quite spot on. Correct nutrition is just as important if not more important for weight loss and fat loss. Exercise can certainly amplify results and shrink timelines, but if you were to pick one, I'd go with eating well.
I think a lighter is a good analogy. In order to make a flame, you need fuel (correct nutrition) and a spark (exercise). While the spark is the catalyst to the flame, without fuel you'll get no flame.
If you think of "diet" in terms of "eating less" or "reducing calories", this is a bad idea. It does not work, and you lose at least as much muscle (rather more) as fat, and as little as it works, it does not work for a long time at all before you grow tired of it. In the end, you'll have more weight and less muscle, which is an unfavorable combination.
If you think of "diet" in terms of "eating correctly" or maybe "eating with some restrictions", then it can be very effective up to a certain point.
I have gone from 115kg to 104kg over one year by following the Montignac diet, without ever being hungry or feeling agonized. (It's a low carb diet, though less fanatic than some others). It takes a bit of discipline to begin with, but after a while you don't even feel like you're missing something any more. Quality of life is very good. "No beer" is the only thing that really hurts, but hey, a glass of wine for dinner is allowed.
104kg was the end of the road as far diet went, no more change. Going on the elliptic trainer for 2 hours every other day got me down to 95kg in 8 months, for a total of 20kg in 20 months (prepare to spend some money on new trousers!).
Now... going on the elliptical trainer every two days, again, is something that admittedly takes a lot of discipline, but it's entirely possible, and it works. And, you eventually get used to it, too.
Exercise is by far more effective than dieting. Dieting slows metabolism while exercise speeds it up. I run 8-10 miles a day and burn about 700-900 calories a day, I have to eat almost 3000 calories a day just to maintain my weight. I tried dieting and had no success.
Started running religiously and dropped 70 pounds. I now eat whatever I want and have actually lost 10 more pounds. As long as you burn enough, you don't have to diet. why do you think many triathletes and marathoners eat a crap ton of bagels, huge bowls of pasta, or lots of donuts and are skinny; EXERCISE trumps dieting, but nutritionists hate us runners and say what we are doing is unhealthy.
I had one so called "dietician" blast what I did and said marathon running was bad for my health. They do this because they know that exercise is a successful way of losing weight without starving yourself. Many of these Hollywood nutritionists endorse crash diets - 1200 calorie diets - and are scared to death that the fitness community will drive them out of business because you see athletes eating 3000+ calories a day, eating pasta and donuts and keeping the weight off. People it's simple: calories in vs calories out, if you burn 1000 calories a day and your requirement is 2000 calories, you are going to lose 2 pounds a week by just eating your requirement, lose 1 pound by eating 500 above. Exercise is key

Proverbs 16:33
" The lot is cast into the lap, But its every decision is from the Lord."
Proverbs 16:33
" The lot is cast into the lap, But its every decision is from the Lord."
The Hebrew word used in Psalm 16:33 is גּוֹרָל, which refers to stones which were cast to get a decision. Garments were also used sometimes. The word can also be used as a metaphor for 'destiny.'1 The IVP commentary explains that casting lots "is a form of divination in which the assumption is that God will determine the cast and thus provide the answer (usually yes or no) to the question that is posed."2
The clear implication from this verse is that 'the LORD' decides the final outcome of the cast lot(s) - it is not left to chance.
1 Ludwig Koehler, Walter Baumgartner, et al., The Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of the Old Testament (Leiden; New York: E.J. Brill, 1999), 185.
2 Victor Harold Matthews, Mark W. Chavalas, and John H. Walton, The IVP Bible Background Commentary: Old Testament, electronic ed. (Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity Press, 2000).
One tradition they had then was the casting of lots, just small items such as stones, to reach decisions on important matters. Once the decision had been made they didn't argue anymore.
Just beyond that Proverbs 16:33 is Proverbs 18:18's "The lot puts an end to disputes, and is decisive in a controversy between the mighty". (Proverbs 18:18).
Another point using "lot" is in Acts 1:23-26. There the remaining 11 apostles needed a new 12th to replace Judas. They'd decide via a prayer and the casting of lots.
Acts 1:23-26: So they proposed two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also known as Justus, and Matthias. Then they prayed, "You, Lord, who know the hearts of all, show which one of these two you have chosen to take the place in this apostolic ministry from which Judas turned away to go to his own place". Then they gave lots to them, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was counted with the eleven apostles.
The "lot" is a form of gambling, as when the Roman soldiers at the cross of Christ gambled for Jesus' garments by "casting lots" (see Mt 27:35; Mk 15:24; Jn 19:24). Perhaps they threw specially shaped or colored stones, or cubes of wood with numbers on them.
The lot can also be a way to make a difficult decision, as when the sailors on the ship in which Jonah was a passenger cast lots to determine whom to throw overboard. Evidently the sailors blamed someone on board for the storm that threatened to sink their boat, so they cast lots to determine who the jinx was (see Jonah 1:7). The lot fell to Jonah, so overboard he went. God, of course, provided a great fish to swallow Jonah and deposit him on land three days later, alive and repentant.
In the Near Middle East, to this day men and women wear long, flowing garments. In Arabic, they're called gallabaya (I'm spelling it phonetically). When a person sits down, therefore, he can then throw the dice (or stones, or whatever) into his lap, and his gallabaya functions as a table for the dice. When the dice are thrown, someone wins and someone loses or an important decision is made by the shear randomness of the casting of lots. "The die is cast" is an expression you do not hear much today, and it means the decision has been made and that there are no do-overs.
The "magic eight-ball" of today, which can probably still be purchased at some novelty stores, is a form of casting lots. You ask it a question, such as "Should I attend the party I've been invited to on Saturday night?" Inside the eight-ball is a device with various answers on it, and when you turn the eight-ball over, a random answer is displayed, such as, "Most definitely" or "No way, Jose."
What the writer of Proverbs 16:33 is saying is simply this, and I paraphrase:
When you think about it, the greatest levelers of all are God and His decrees. Yes, we humans have the freedom to make decisions, and when we have a hard time exercising that limited freedom--to take or not take a job that is offered to us, for example, we are free to toss the dice, cast lots, blindfold ourselves and throw a dart, flip a coin, consult a magic eight ball, put out a fleece (Gideon's strategy), or perform any action to make the decision for us. Regardless of the outcome, God's purposes cannot be thwarted, at least in the "big picture," and especially for His children.
The Bible does not generally condone the casting of lots as the preferred means of making a decision. While the Tanakh had its Urim and Thummim, which were gemstones used to determine God's will (see Nu 27:21; 1 Sam 28:6; Ez 2:63; Neh 7:65), and the "Eleven" used the casting of lots to determine who should replace Judas Iscariot (Acts 1:26), in general the people of God are to seek God's face and wisdom in the making of important decisions, and not to rely on a toss of the dice. When we limit our guidance in matters that are of importance to God to the following, I think we are on solid ground:
Books have been written on each of the above elements. At this point, however, suffice it to say the casting of lots, in whatever form it takes, is likely the least reliable means of decision-making and guidance.
There are perhaps times when in our predicaments we, like Gideon of old, feel led to put out a fleece as a means of confirming what is or is not God's will for us (see Judges 6:37-40). There have been times for all of us, I imagine, when on the brink of making a decision we say, for example, "If the next person to walk in the door has short red hair, then I'll take that as a sign that God wants me to move to Timbuktu to be a missionary."
This scenario (or one of your own invention) is similar to casting lots in that there is an unpredictable randomness to it. Since the future is largely veiled to all of us, and in the absence of clear guidance from God, we sometimes feel we need a little helping hand to push us in the right direction. I suggest, however, that the times when we resort to such tactics should be few and far between and used only as a last resort. After all, God has promised to guide us with His eye (Ps 32:8 and 33:18) and that
I added the words and stops to the above verse, because there are times when God needs to put our plans on "hold," for whatever reason(s). We then need to stop, exercise patience, and wait upon the Lord until He gives us the go-ahead (see verse 34).

I am following the book XDA Developers Android Hackers Toolkit 2012.
In the beginning chapters , it says that :
The second-stage bootloader checks to see if the security flag is on (S-ON) or off (S-OFF) and depending on that , it checks for the signatures in kernel and OS that is to be loaded . The book says that if the security flag is S-OFF , then the bootloader no longer checks for signatures and also makes the entire system writable .
Now , coming to fastboot :
Fastboot is a protocol that allows low level commands to be sent to a device to do such things as write files to the OS . Most manufacturers , therefore , disable the fastboot protocol at the factory .
Can the security flag be S-OFF and fastboot be disabled ? Can anyone elaborate on the relation between the security flag and fastboot protocol ?

I'm travelling in Croatia with my Canon 5D Mark II, and I forgot my charger at home. Is there a store in or around Split that would sell such a thing?
A place where you most definitely have Canon products is Anigota which is a Canon dealer for Croatia. You can find their store in Gundulićeva 26 in Split.
The store is called "Kodak centar d.o.o." and it's near "Panasonic centar".
According to their website, they're open Mondays - Fridays 08:00 - 20:00 and Saturdays 08:00 - 13:00.
The Joker Centre is a good possibility - it was the first major mall to open in Split, back in 2007, and has over 50 outlets of major global brands.
Odds are good that an electronics store exists, and that they could help you. At the very least they could direct you to somewhere else who does.
The address is:
Put Brodarice 6
near the Diocletian Palace & City Centre

Grid Header Menu not rendering properly in ExtJS3.2
I am in the process of migrating our app from ExtJS 2.2 to 3.2.
One of the few things I still have to resolved is an issue with the dropdown menus in the columns header of a grid (i.e the ones that you access to add or remove a column from the grid)
It used to work OK in ExtJS2.2 but now the dropdown menu is trimmed in IE ( the width is not being calculated correctly)
I am attaching two pics, one with the correct behavior
and one with the incorrect one.
If anyone can give me a hit on where to start searching/debugging, it would be greatly appreciated. I can send as many details as necessary about the code, but there is nothing to out of the standard in it.

I'm reading the papaer "On the Reduction of a Matrix to Diagonal Form" of Epstein and Flanders (Amer. Math. Monthly 62, (1955). 168–171.
Let $S$ denote the trace function.
The authors stated that a well-known result in the theory of algebras of matrices is:
A matrix algebra $\mathbb U$ over a field $\mathbb F$ of characteristice zero is semisimples if and only if $S(XY)=0$, for fixed $X\in\mathbb U$ and all $Y\in\mathbb U$,implies $X=0$.
The authors do not give references. Does anyone know where I can find a proof of this result?

A problem on Algebraic Number Theory
$K$ and $L$ are number fields over $\Bbb Q$.($\Bbb Q$ is rational number field) $K\subseteq L$.
$\mathcal{O}_K$ is the ring of integers of $K$. and $\mathcal{O}_L$ is the integers of $L$.
$P$ is a prime ideal of $\mathcal{O}_L$. $p$ is a prime ideal of $\mathcal{O}_K$. $P$ is over $p$.
The residue class degree $f$ is defined to be $f=[\mathcal{O}_L/P:\mathcal{O}_K/p]$. The norm of $P$ is $N(P)=p^f$.
This is the usual definition of Norm of an ideal.(See Serre's Local fields and Serge Lang's Algebraic Number Theory)
Swinnerton-Dyer's A Brief Guide to Algebraic Number Theory has a different definition on Norm of an ideal.(Page 25)
if $A$ is an ideal of $\mathcal{O}_L$, with $N(A)$ = ideal in $\mathcal{O}_K$ generated by elements $N(a)$ where $a\in A$.
I don't know why these two definitions are the same. Swinnerton-Dyer claims so in his book. Can anyone here give a hint, an explanation or anything else?
