text: 000 FXUS63 KLOT 260756 AFDLOT Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Chicago/Romeoville, IL 256 AM CDT TUE JUL 26 2016 .SHORT TERM... 201 PM CDT Through Tuesday... High pressure will continue to provide tranquil weather through Tuesday. Calm to light/variable winds will be in place tonight allowing for radiational cooling. Expect lows in the lower 60s northwest to the mid 60s south, with around 70 in the immediate Chicago metro. Southern areas will likely see a slower cool down as dewpoints have hung on in the lower 70s, but should fall into the mid 60s tonight. With the light flow, patchy fog may develop but forecast soundings suggest that moisture will be very shallow. Areas that received the most rainfall outside of the immediate metro area are probably most favored and it may be that any fog that develops is rather shallow. The center of the high shifts east tomorrow but winds will continue to be light. This will support a lake influence setting up once again which will keep lakeshore areas around 80 for highs while the rest of the area sees highs in the mid/upper 80s once again. MDB && .LONG TERM... 305 PM CDT Tuesday night through Monday... High pressure over the area Tuesday night will very gradually weaken on Wednesday and Wednesday Night with any forcing for precipitation in the Midwest being to our north and south. The latter forcing is a shearing/weakening upper low presently located in the northern Gulf of Mexico. There is uncertainty in model solutions as to what degree this interacts with the northern stream trough forcing. Just how far north the channel of higher theta-e air returns will depend on this. So while a chance for showers and thunderstorms over a 48 hour window or so at this time, overall there still is not a signal for high impact weather. Obviously with the moist air mass to our south, that could change. Despite the difference in model solutions for Thursday-Friday, there appears to be a quieter and drier weekend setting up than last with northwest flow aloft and north-northeast flow in the low-levels. Depending on the strength of this low-level flow, that could bring a rip current threat to area beaches later Friday/early Saturday. MTF && .AVIATION... For the 06Z TAFs... High pressure remains overhead leading to VFR conditions and light winds. Winds will be variable at RFD and DPA through the period, while winds will become east at 5 kt or less along the lake. Winds continue to veer and become variable overnight. JEE && .MARINE... 252 AM CDT High pressure currently over Iowa shifts east today. Onshore flow is expected across the southern end of the lake while winds will be southwest at 10-20 kt over the northern end. Winds veer and diminish into Wednesday morning. A cold front pushes down the lake Wednesday, and winds become north and northeast behind it. Guidance suggests winds may increase to 10-20 kt along the front Wednesday night. The pressure gradient tightens over the lake Thursday afternoon as low pressure shifts northeast over IL. Northeast winds will increase to 10-20 kt Thursday afternoon and night. The low passes south of the lake Thursday night through Friday morning. Winds remain northeast through Saturday and then become south or southeast as another high pressure system spreads over the lake over the weekend. JEE && .LOT WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

'Eat, drink and be merry' seems like a good piece of Epicurean advice. But if the sages are to be believed, the good news implied in eating and drinking merrily is only half of our existential story. The bad news usually comes in with the bills; when one has to grapple with the costs of one's revelry; in the morning after. That's when Sant Kabir's advice may come in handy.

Feb 18, 2012Today I managed to find two protein shakes that I can tolerate! I'm also on day two of taking a full regimen of my new chewable supplements and they have all stayed down. It's the small things these days that excite me!
My next thing to tackle is exercise! I've been battling a sore back the past few months and now, thanks to my wonderful Chiropractor, I'm feeling great and ready to get back in gear. I need to get back on my eliptical and to find a dvd of toning/weight work.

Hi, does your theme support multisite? with the same quantum theme installed in both sites? Thanks, Wolv
Hi wolverinept,
Sorry not at the moment.
We purchased this Theme and are dissatisfied with the installation instructions. These instructions are outdated and incorrect and indicate options inside of wordpress that are no longer available. The installation instructions indicate redux_options are to be pasted into a text area in the import/export tab but this option does not exist and without redux_options this theme we purchased will never match demo and will cause hours and days of delay as this support for this theme is SLOW taking days to respond. Author is forcing us to Pay to have this theme installed correctly by providing us with incorrect installation instruction. Until this is rectified we say BUYER BEWARE this theme is a HUGE time killer!
Hi oprice06,
The import/export does and should exist – if you are not seeing it then something might be wrong.
We can assist you further but we would need access to your account to see to investigate the issue.
Also, did you post any support tickets on our website? If so please email us the link to your support ticket.
I don't have time to play your support ticket games. The instruction are outdated and that is what is wrong. When purchasing a theme we do not seek any delays due to poor outdated instructions. Im not paying you to delay me or for me to wait 2 to 3 days for a response to a support ticket. Your sales funnel is poorly designed. Provide an email address for me to send my wordpress login info to as I have already contacted you via email to advise that I will be requesting a refund and giving you a very poor review if we are unable to get you assistance. Your outdated instructions are forcing me to the support forum and delaying me and our project.
Hi oprice06,
Our support email is firstname.lastname@example.com
Send us access to your site and we will look into it.
Sorry ignore that request, we just got your email which came through to our info address. For future reference please email us at email@example.com for a faster response.
We are looking into your issue now.
Hi oprice06,
It looks like your server may not be configured properly for WordPress as the Redux framework is not working correctly on your server.
We have opened a support ticket with the framework developers to see if they can help us determine what the exact cause of the issue is.
We will get back to you with an answer shortly.
Best Regards.
Hi, Happy new year to you guys. A question, in numerous of your infographic shortcodes, the "%" symbol is automatically added in. Is there anyway to remove this? I understand I may have to go into the source files to amend this, but in which file do i find the code that puts the % sign in the infographic?
Hi craig6586,
There is currently no option to remove the % symbol but we have made a note of this and we will be adding in the option in our next update – which will be later this week.
Hey, can't get your Quantum theme to work with the 'The Events Calendar' plugin, but it works just fine if I go back to the Twenty Sixteen theme, thanks in advance.
Hi kazokami,
We have not tested our theme with that plugin but we will look into this.
Hey, I have 48 entries in my staff and 5 categories. If i check the first categorie with the first entries the data is loaded correctly, however if I go to the last categorie (with the last entries) I have to click several times to reach the entries in the LOAD MORE buttom, it should automaticly load the last entries when I click the according category, thanks.
Hi kazokami,
We will be addressing this issue soon in a future update.
Hi, is this theme wpml compliant and, if so, where can we place the language selector ? Thanks, Mike
Hi optimized,
Yes our theme has WPML support – the language selector appears in the header area on our demo site. If you need to re-position it you will have to do that manually through the code.
Thanks for your inquiry.
Best Regards.
Can you please show me where it will appear as I acnnot see it in the demo ? Thanks
Hi optimized,The language selector is located in the header area of our demo site: https://wp.pulsarmedia.ca/quantum/
Its right next to the "General Inquiries" and "Support" phone numbers at they very top of the page.
3 quick questions:
1. Does there happen to be a shortcode for the Recent Posts slider on the homepage? I'd like to put it elsewhere on the page.
2. For some reason, in some areas of the site it's displaying the html (i.e., "
...instead of actually using those codes. How can I resolve this?
3. I get a weird cursor image over the sliders – it's like an elongated set of 2 arrowheads on the left and right. I would really prefer to just keep the regular cursor at all times. How can I disable this?
I'm doing quite a bit of customization but really love the bones of this theme. Thank you.
Hmmm..not sure why my 3rd question doesn't appear above.
I did find out that there is a shortcode for the recent posts though, so I'm good there.
My third question was regarding the extra cursor that appears over sliders. It seems to be some sort of elongated pair of arrow heads to the left and right. I'd like to get rid of that and only have the regular cursor. How can I do that? I'm not sure where this extra cursor is originating from (maybe Owl, since it appears over the sliders?).
Hi brotsky,
Question 2 should be resolved now with our latest update version 1.9.3.
And for question 3 use the following CSS code to display the regular cursor:
.owl-carousel:hover { cursor:pointer !important; }
Best Regards.

Hi eduardonoguerol,
Most of those errors are related to Woocommerce. You will have to install the Wocoomerce plugin in order to import the products and product tags from our demo content.
And you can ignore the templatera errors as we are no longer supporting that.
Hello I am looking for a theme for an organization that handles conferences with paid registration and conference files and details, a members only area that is paid and must be renewed annually (so memberships must expire and trigger a renewal request), members should be able to submit job postings, and a section in the members only area to download publications. Is this attainable with your theme and current members only area?
Hi cindykohler,
You would have to integrate most of those features manually. Our theme does have a backend system integrated but it is not that sophisticated. A paid registration system with expiration's would have to be custom coded into the theme and job submissions would also have to be custom coded as our theme does not support these particular features.
So basically we provide customers with a starting point for a backend system – you can then take that and integrate your own specific features through customization.
Thanks for your inquiry.
Hi, where are the .po files to translate the theme? For example, in the Events page and artists page.
Hi vynnus,
Your profile does not display the purchased or supported labels so we need to verify your purchase code first before we proceed with support.
Item Purchase Code: 87fefac4-88a2-4415-84bc-*
Purchase Date: 2016-02-17 17:42:33 UTC
Sorry vynnus, we need the full code to validate it. Please email it to us at themesupport@pulsarmedia and include your username in the subject line so we know its from you.
how to update the website? as it i have received an email saying there is a new version available! do i just download the theme again?
Hi doctoramor,
You have two options:
1. You can try using the Envato toolkit plugin to update the theme through WordPress: https://github.com/envato/envato-wordpress-toolkit
2. Download the theme again from Themeforest and reinstall it through WordPress. NOTE: You will have to deactivate and delete the current version first before proceeding with installing the latest version.
Hope this helps.
Hi, i have updated the site some of the features that wasn't working is now working, and some that ware working are no longer working. for example the register page if i fill the form or not it keeps saying ( validating…. )
Can you please help me with this?
i have used the envato toolkit to update the wesite
Thank you,
Hi doctoramor,
The registration form uses the re-captcha module to verify the form – if you have not inserted your API credentials under Appearance -> Customize Quantum -> Google Options then the form will not validate.
Also, your support policy has expired so if you wish to continue getting support you will have to renew it.
Hi! I am interested on this theme but I have a question:
I need the registered users to get access to information FOR THEIR EYES ONLY, PDF files as well as images… Is it possible to have PRIVATE GALLERIES inside a member area? Or it works only with downloadable "attachments" in this members area?
Thank you in advance, Javier
HI javierorta,
The members area of our theme allows you to display private files such as pdf or word documents but it currently does not have a private gallery option.
Feel free to register an account on our demo site and have a look at how the backend area functions.
Thanks for your inquiry.
hi, google map location is deteriorating structure and attaching the page turns to another location What is the reason? sorry for my bad english!
Hi ferhatcevikbas,
Sorry we don't quite understand your question – can you provide us a link to your page so we can take a look at the google map?
Hello Pre-sale question
1 – Can I test for my client the backend of the site to see how it really works ?
2 – I need to know if the site will send automatic mails when I will put a new file in the member aera to all members.
3 – I need to know if I can put some files for a special group of members, so the file will be invisible for other members
4 – I need to see the admin of the backend to see how it looks. Is it possible ?
Thanks in advance
Hi murphy73,
Here are the answers to your questions:
1. You can register an account on our demo site to gain access to the members area but the WordPress backend is currently not accessible.
2. Sorry the backend currently does not have this feature.
3. This feature is being added in a future update
4. See question 1
Hope this helps.
Thanks you for that. A last question Can I classify my files and put them in 4 or 5 differents folders ?
Hi murphy73,
Do you mean 4 or 5 different folders on the server?
Please clarify, thanks.
On the demo, when i am logged, there is a right column called "Members files" with files.
Can these files be put in differents folders like "Administration / Employees / Rules / ///) ? because I have 4 or 5 main subjects and I would like to classify them.
I hope I am clear : ) !
Hi murphy73,
Sorry that can't be done at the moment but we are planning on adding this feature very soon.
Dear Pulsar, why do not you answer? There is a new problem …How ascending descending Staff page setting.. Pls Reply
Thank you
Hi ferhatcevikbas,
Sorry there is currently no option to configure the post order of the staff members but we will add that in our next update.
If you need to re-order the staff posts in the meantime we recommend using the following plugin:https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-types-order/
Hope this helps.

Where can I edit/change the menu hover background color?
Please give me something to work on.
Thank you!
Hi novaremkt,
There is suppose to be an option for this under the customizer area but it looks like the option is missing. We will be fixing this early next week but in the meantime you can use the following CSS code to modify the hover color:
.sf-menu li:hover { background-color: red !important; }
That should work.
Is there a way to have a full-width nav menu which the nav is under the logo and not the the side of the logo?
Hi kapplewhite,
You will have to use the child theme and customize the code to accomplish that.
Hi again,
Do I edit this in the style.css because there are not styles listed in there.
Hi kapplewhite,
No, you would have to edit the header.php file.

Forgotten Ellis IslandSunday | 8 p.m.
Visit the abandoned immigrant hospital on Ellis Island. During the great wave of immigration, 22 medical buildings sprawled across two islands adjacent to Ellis Island, the largest port of entry to the United States. Massive and modern, the hospital was America's first line of defense against contagious, often virulent, disease. In the era before antibiotics, tens of thousands of immigrant patients were separated from family, detained in the hospital and healed from illness before becoming citizens. This is a powerful reminder of the best -- and worst -- of America's dealings with its new citizens-to-be. Elliott Gould narrates.

We chose this hotel for an extra 2 days in Rio after a cruise. The location was great as it was right across from the beach. There was plenty of selection for eateries within close walking distance. Shopping was a block away and quite walkable in either direction.
Our room was quite adequate with a view of the beach. Both room and bathroom were a comfortable size and relatively clean. However, the handle of the hairdryer had not been cleaned for sometime and fortunately we did not need it. The downside of the hotel is that the walls are less than soundproof.
The breakfasts were generous with a good variety.
We found the front desk staff to be helpful. They spoke English as our Portuguese was less than limited. It was great to see a cold weather Christmas theme in the lobby.

A recently published study has hinted that one of the more effective ways to fight the increasing problem of obesity is to impose a "Junk Tax" or "Fat Tax" on fattening foods, while making much healthier options like fruits and veggies more affordable.
For parents, to try and sell fruits and vegetables to their children is, as has been witnessed over the years, a much difficult job, and considering the rush everyone is in nowadays, these food items seem to be the quicker and better option for grownups as well.
In such a scenario, is it fair to impose extra-heavy taxes on these foods just to discourage people from buying them? And even if this does happen, would it help in any way? What about all those parents who would be running around trying to feed their kids healthier foods, already pressed for time?
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and the California Legislature seem to have a different view. The Governor thinks that getting rid of junk food in schools altogether might just be the best place to start. Wouldn't that amount to forcing particular foods on children?
Regardless of whether you agree that the Government should be forcing people to eat what contemporary experts term as "healthy", we can all agree on one fact, which is that the concept of being "fair" needs to be kept in mind.
Instead of asking consumers who enjoy an extra cheeseburger or another slice of pizza to shell out more money, and pressurizing children in schools to stuff themselves with fruits and vegetables and other less fattening and healthier options, and not letting them enjoy their choices, the Government should try and invest more funds into making PE classes at school or little every day workouts more frequent and enjoyable.
What is really interesting is that there is a whole group of health oriented advocates who are of the opinion that these fat taxes might not work at all, or hardly work. Some people might quit drinking and eating fattening foods, but might start gorging on other calorie ridden items which are not highly taxed. Where does that leave the Government and its new solutions? No point in trying to implement something that might not work, or anger the common man. A different approach and view needs to be taken, and then expanding waistlines might be controlled.

Health and safety consideration
Traveling with a dog can be challenging, but it can also be fun if you are prepared for it. It is good to have in mind the comfort and health of your dog before you leave your door step. You should make sure that your dog has had all the shots it requires. In your travel plan you should include a budget for its food and water. You should either carry some food it is accustomed to feeding on or you should be aware of a seller who provides them. Apart from the health of your dog, you should think of your personal comfort. Think of a way to carry your dog without having to cause yourself injuries. You should also have in mind how you will manage waste.
Tool for carrying your dog
If you have already taken care of health and safety issues of your dog, the next question you can ask yourself is the carriage tool you will use. A variety small dog crates are a valuable option if your canine is not large. You can travel safely with this crate in your personal car or in a public means comfortably. Crates secure your dog so that it does not run off when you are supposed to relax or you should be calm. That way crates spare you embarrassment that your dog could cause.
Dog travel bag offer a comfortable way to move with your canine. They come in a variety and they are personalized to suit your taste. These bags make you to feel the company of your dog more closely. Travel bags for dogs are made in such a way that you can carry them in the way that you think it most suitable. There are those that can be carried with handles while there are those that have to be carried with a strap. The material of choice and carrying will depend on your taste and your dog.
You need ample sleeping space for your dog. Many people think that dog bed and bedding is a luxury. In truth that is not the case; your dog needs a nice place to rest. Cheap dog beds that are easy to clean offer an easy solution to this problem. These dog beds should be able to fit in the travel crate that you have chosen. That way, your dog will be able to get regular naps as you travel, no matter the means you choose.
Dog waste management
When you are traveling with your dog, its poop could be a real problem. Dog poop can stink seriously if it is not properly handled. It is therefore very important that you plan on poop management thought your travel. The easiest way to manage this poop is a dog waste bag. You can collect the waste in it and find a proper place to dispose them later. It is a far better way to deal with poop than letting the dog continuous. These waste bags offer you a chance to keep your environment clean; you should therefore endeavor to make sure that their end disposal leaves the environment safe.Add a Comment

"Would definitely use again. Great service."
"Absolutely perfect service and hassle free. "
"The title says it all. Having used other more well known meet and greet providers we used this on the grounds of value for money. Basically the product was half the cost for the same service. Very pleased."
"Hi Your service was really ggod, the only thing that let it down was the driver having to que to get a ticket valadated for me to leave the car park on colection of the car. The T3 airport short stay car park was very busy and there was a massive que at the ticket machines, the driver dropped down a flor to see if there was a smaller que but still tokk 15-20 minutes. I know this is out of your control for the ques but can you look at a better system?? otherwise great and will use again"
"Totally easy and quick and very good value"
"Booked via this site and have to say the price and level of service was excellent. No issues or problems and very straight forward. Will be using again for sure."
"I'm always a little reluctant to use airport parking facilities due to the cost for valet parking versus the cost of a taxi from Southampton. However, on this occasion our trip was only 8 days so decided to investigate further. To my amazement these guys meet you right across from the terminal, take your car and return (washed with 5 day + booking and all this for just £67. The driver was very polite and friendly and left me in no doubt that I'd made the right decision. Thank you very much for a brilliant service guys."
"I have used this service a number of times and it has remained consistently excellent. Staff are always very friendly and helpful, booking online is very easy and the entire process is seamless. I often recommend AirPark Me to people and do so confidently in the knowledge they will have a good experience. This company will always remain my first call when I need to leave my car at the airport."
"having used a different service previously we were very happy with the meet and greet service both before our flights and on our return. the drivers were courteous and on time. and the controls for radio etc untouched. We would use the service again "
"Bus driver saw me less than 50m away running to catch the bus at the stop and drove off anyway leaving me to wait another 15 mins in the cold for the next one."

Naming Worms
I think my dad wanted a son. Instead, he got three daughters. Seeing as how the son he anticipated was never forthcoming, Dad decided to improvise and I, being his youngest, won the privilege of being nurtured outdoors.
Being turned into a tomboy didnÆt bother me in the least. I loved putting on my plaid, flannel shirt and doing things outside with Dad, especially fishing. Whether we oared across a lake in a rowboat, or hiked down a cliff with nothing more than a hook and some string, I could think of no better way for a dad and his little girl to spend the day.
I would marvel at how patient and focused Dad was when he fished. He would concentrate on his line for hours at a time. If he was any more calm, he would have slipped into a coma. This used to drive me bananas. Being seven years old, I craved more excitement. I imagined a huge fish, bigger than me, gulping down my bait and flapping ferociously in the water until I heroically hauled it into the rowboat. This never happened. Instead, I would spend my time watching Dad as he stared intently at his line. He never blinked, sometimes for the whole day. How could he be so patient?
One day DadÆs patience was put to the test when my fascination shifted from the fish to the bait. While waiting for a nibble on my line, I peeked into the can of worms we had in the rowboat with us. I dug my little fingers into the moist soil and pulled a resisting worm from its burrow. I let him squirm (I decided it was a ôheö) across my hand. It tickled. I took another worm from the can. Then another. Then another. Soon, three or four worm heads popped out of the soil to see what all the commotion was about. I was in love.
I felt as though I had made a can-full of new friends who would keep me company during these long, uneventful fishing trips. Each worm was given a name according to his personality. When you are seven years old worms have personalities. There was something endearing about my mucous-covered companions with no faces. I promised each of them that not one would be put on a hook and fed to the fish.
Then, disaster struck. Dad pulled Hamilton out of the can. I gasped in horror as he attempted to manipulate his poor writhing body onto a hook. There was a terrified look where HamiltonÆs face would have been, if he had a face.
ôDaddy, No! DonÆt put Hamilton on the hook! HeÆs my favorite!ö
Dad raised an eyebrow. ôYou named the worm?ö he asked in disbelief.
Exhaling and shaking his head, Dad pulled out another worm. It was Wigglesworth. He was the skittish one who was particularly worried about being used as bait. I had made a special promise to him and could not possibly allow the poor little guy to be hooked, for I was a woman of my word.
ôThatÆs Wigglesworth! DonÆt hurt him!ö
DadÆs frustration grew as he pulled more worms from the can. First Winthrop, the shy worm. Then Slimey, the friendly worm. And Marvin the show-off. Finally, Dad pulled out Maxwell, Sammy, OÆReilly, Buster and Doug. Dad groaned as I pleaded to not hurt my friends.
ôDonÆt tell me you named all of the worms in this can.ö
With a sheepish nod, our fishing trip was suddenly over.
The next day, Dad drove into town and picked up a bucket of crawfish. When he brought them back to the cottage, I opened the lid and peeked in. I heard a despairing yelp emerge from his throatùI turned around to see him running frantically toward me, with his arms flailing and with a look of terror on his face.
ôNo! You have to quit making friends with the bait!ö

Chicken Soup for the Fishermans' soul is a great compilation of fishing stories from man places around the world. This book contains stories from Salmon fishing in Alaska, to Trout fishing in Colorado, all the way to Bluegill fishing in Florida. Some stories are sad and have deep meaning to them, while others are full of pure joy and light-heartedness. I think that the biggest message in this book is that fishing isn't just about catching fish, and that for many people, it has much deeper meaning. I found that nearly all of the book was highly enjoyable. The stories had a lot of detail and used fantastic imagery to paint a vivid picture of the surroundings. The only dislikable part to this book are the stories where the authors skimp out on the details and seem to rush the story. I recommend this book to everyone, because everyone can get something big out of reading this book. If you are a fish lover, then you will find this book highly enjoyable. I am not a fan of books, however I gave this book a chance and it paid off. I loved the book and found it easy to read.
A great collection of stories that strikes so many cords in my memories of growing up fishing. My favorite story was Tadpoles Triumph by Banjo Bandolas. I grew up fishing from piers in the south and everything he wrote rang so true and familiar.

Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation
Sport is as exciting as ever. There are heroes, underdogs, obstacles to overcome, tears, triumphs and unbelievable moments. But with sport now being so much about the odds, the betting wins and cashing out, it's easy to forget what really matters.
The gambling environment has changed significantly in recent years with new products being made available, new technologies creating easier access and a massive expansion in gambling advertising. Young men in particular are more likely to be exposed to gambling and gambling advertising, as well as participate in sports betting compared to previous generations.
Sport itself has become a marketing platform for sports betting operators which has created an environment where betting brands can be seen on almost every element of the sporting experience.
Betting is changing the way fans experience sport.
Many elite sporting clubs and peak sporting bodies have recognised the importance of reducing the exposure of young people to sports betting advertising associated with their sport, and have taken a stand.
Many Victorian clubs have got behind their fans and committed to not accepting sponsorship deals with sports betting companies. These clubs have also committed to working with the foundation to limit the exposure of young fans to gambling.
Clubs are doing this by reducing the exposure of young fans to messages about gambling, and educating players and fans about the risks associated with gambling as a way of reduce gambling harm in the community.
Importantly, it also requires clubs who own or operate pokies to commit to the highest standards when it comes to operating their venues. Clubs work with the foundation's Gambler's Help venue support program which helps train venue staff to identify and support people who might be having problems with gambling.
The foundation is working with more than 160 clubs across the state at both the elite and local sporting level to counter the growing culture of gambling in sport. Together, we are reducing the level of sports betting advertising young people are seeing through sport.
In conjunction with the foundation, AFL Victoria has been a keen advocate in the promotion of responsible gambling to its extensive community network of 89 leagues and over 1,100 clubs across the state.
Since March 2012, AFL Victoria has also encouraged responsible gambling to its elite competitions including the TAC Cup, Youth Girls, the Victorian Women's Football League and the Victorian Football League.
AFL Victoria supports and guides football bodies across the state, reaching 148,000 players and over 78,000 volunteers across metropolitan and regional Victoria.
In 2013, the foundation partnered with the Collingwood Football Club for the first time.
In 2015, Collingwood FC made an ongoing commitment to support the foundation and help stamp out gambling advertising and its effect on youth in today's society, whilst continuing to be active within community in promoting the responsible gambling message via social media, online and direct emails to
75,000+ members.
The club's venues have honoured their commitment by developing strong relationships with the venue support worker program and local Gamblers Help services.
To further support the partnership, several player's will actively be involved through the campaigns, which will play an integral role in getting the responsible gambling message out.
The Hawthorn Football Club and the foundation partner together to promote responsible gambling.
In late 2014, Hawthorn was the third AFL club to sign the foundation's responsible gambling charter. Implementation of the charter not only includes the sporting club environment, but has also flowed down to the two gaming venues in which the club has an interest.
These venues are implementing a Venue Best Practice Guide to go above and beyond what is required in relation to responsible gambling at a gaming venue level. Hawthorn is setting an example for all sporting clubs across the state in how to promote a responsible and healthy environment in relation to gambling.
The Melbourne Renegades joined forces with the foundation in late 2015 and signed the responsible gambling charter to protect young people from the risks of gambling as part of the foundation's sporting club program.Through the partnership, the club will encourage its fans to love the game, not the odds and focus its fans attentions to the many great things there is to love about the Big Bash.
In December 2015 the Melbourne Stars signed the responsible gambling charter to protect their fans from sports betting advertising and encourage fans to enjoy the game, instead of gambling.Throughout the season, the Stars and the foundation will work together to take the focus back to the love of the game.
Melbourne Victory's commitment to raising awareness of responsible gambling dates back to November 2011, when they partnered with the Victorian Government to promote Gambler's Help services.
Melbourne Victory was the first A-League team to sign the responsible gambling charter in October 2013, which prohibited them from promoting sports betting to their members and committed them to a range of activities to promote responsible gambling within their club environment.
The foundation and Melbourne Victory promote responsible gambling messages in a range of ways to Victory fans to encourage them to gamble responsibly.
The foundation has worked with North Melbourne Football Club since 2013.
As a foundation ambassador, Jack Ziebell leads his North Melbourne teammates in helping to spread the responsible gambling message to the club's fan base and the wider AFL community.
North Melbourne is the only club that does not generate revenue from gambling or pokies, and was proudly the first AFL club to sign the foundation's Responsible Gambling Charter.
In an effort to deliver the responsible gambling message, North Melbourne Football Club and its players undertake many engaging activities, including:
The Richmond Football Club and the foundation joined forces in 2016 to work together to encourage fans to separate gambling from sport and love the game, not the odds.
Through its channels the club will encourage discussion among its fans about responsible gambling behaviors and the normalisation of sport and gambling in recent years.
In October 2015, St Kilda CEO Matt Finnis signed the responsible gambling charter committing the Saints to encourage responsible gambling behaviours within their club environment and promote responsible gambling messages to their members.
The Saints and the foundation will work together to encourage the club's fans to separate gambling from sport and love the game for how it is intended to be enjoyed.
The foundation partnered with the Western Bulldogs in 2014 to support the Club's new men's healthy initiative, Sons of the West .
The partnership has since grown and the Club joined other AFL and A-League clubs in October 2015 in signing the responsible gambling charter. The Bulldogs have committed to promoting responsible gambling to their players, members and visitors and continue to encourage community discussion on responsible gambling.

I'm a teenager, which is annoying at times due to the hormones. And periods. That's right ladies and gents I'm a woman. I get aallll the men, and by men I mean cake. Yup, I have one mighty sweet tooth. I don't drink(Yay for pioneers!), smoke or do drugs.
I would also like to add that I have been on this website for 5 years and have written 6 fics. Now compare that to gryfothegreat who has written 58 fics. Btw I suggest you visit her profile and have a gawk at some of her fics, some of them might be truly insane but they are still perfect nonetheless.
Thanks for visiting my profile!
My tumbly url is TpLoz (gasp, shock, horror)
My Ao3 is TpLoz (wow, much name, so change)

Thoughts on GKK?
GKK is a parallel of sorts, but much weaker.TBV is $0.60 compared to $8.71 for RAS.ROE -s -24% compared to +11% FOR rasD/E ratio is 1.17 compared to 2.21 for RASDivident history is similar but much more irregular. To me, no comparison. Ras is a much stronger company. GKK would appear to have a high risk of folding.
Thanks, much appreciated. Had some of the same thoughts. Freed up some gunpowder today to buy more RAS. Looks to me like it is similar to KFN which I averaged in at $1.57

I've been analyzing a recurring "bug report" (perf issue) in one of our systems related to a particularly slow delete operation. Long story short: It seems that the
CASCADE DELETE keys were largely responsible, and I'd like to know (a) if this makes sense, and (b) why it's the case.
We have a schema of, let's say, widgets, those being at the root of a large graph of related tables and related-to-related tables and so on. To be perfectly clear, deleting from this table is actively discouraged; it is the "nuclear option" and users are under no illusions to the contrary. Nevertheless, it sometimes just has to be done.
The schema looks something like this:
+--- Anvils [1:1]
| |
| +--- AnvilTestData [1:N]
+--- WidgetHistory (1:N)
+--- WidgetHistoryDetails (1:N)
Column definitions look like the following:
Widgets (WidgetID int PK, WidgetName varchar(50))
Anvils (AnvilID int PK, WidgetID int FK/IX/UNIQUE, ...)
AnvilTestData (AnvilID int FK/IX, TestID int, ...Test Data...)
WidgetHistory (HistoryID int PK, WidgetID int FK/IX, HistoryDate datetime, ...)
WidgetHistoryDetails (HistoryID int FK/IX, DetailType smallint, ...)
Nothing too scary, really. A
Widget can be different types, an
Anvil is a special type, so that relationship is 1:1 (or more accurately 1:0..1). Then there's a large amount of data - perhaps thousands of rows of
AnvilTestData per
Anvil collected over time, dealing with hardness, corrosion, exact weight, hammer compatibility, usability issues, and impact tests with cartoon heads.
Then every
Widget has a long, boring history of various types of transactions - production, inventory moves, sales, defect investigations, RMAs, repairs, customer complaints, etc. There might be 10-20k details for a single widget, or none at all, depending on its age.
So, unsurprisingly, there's a
CASCADE DELETE relationship at every level here. If a
Widget needs to be deleted, it means something's gone terribly wrong and we need to erase any records of that widget ever existing, including its history, test data, etc. Again, nuclear option.
Relations are all indexed, statistics are up to date. Normal queries are fast. The system tends to hum along pretty smoothly for everything except deletes.
Getting to the point here, finally, for various reasons we only allow deleting one widget at a time, so a delete statement would look like this:
DELETE FROM Widgets
WHERE WidgetID = @WidgetID
Pretty simple, innocuous looking delete... that takes over 2 minutes to run, for a widget with no data!
After slogging through execution plans I was finally able to pick out the
AnvilTestData and
WidgetHistoryDetails deletes as the sub-operations with the highest cost. So I experimented with turning off the
CASCADE (but keeping the actual FK, just setting it to
NO ACTION) and rewriting the script as something very much like the following:
DECLARE @AnvilID int
SELECT @AnvilID = AnvilID FROM Anvils WHERE WidgetID = @WidgetID
DELETE FROM AnvilTestData
WHERE AnvilID = @AnvilID
DELETE FROM WidgetHistory
WHERE HistoryID IN (
SELECT HistoryID
FROM WidgetHistory
WHERE WidgetID = @WidgetID)
DELETE FROM Widgets WHERE WidgetID = @WidgetID
Both of these "optimizations" resulted in significant speedups, each one shaving nearly a full minute off the execution time, so that the original 2-minute deletion now takes about 5-10 seconds - at least for new widgets, without much history or test data.
Just to be absolutely clear, there is still a
CASCADE from
WidgetHistory to
WidgetHistoryDetails, where the fanout is highest, I only removed the one originating from
Further "flattening" of the cascade relationships resulted in progressively less dramatic but still noticeable speedups, to the point where deleting a new widget was almost instantaneous once all of the cascade deletes to larger tables were removed and replaced with explicit deletes.
I'm using
DBCC DROPCLEANBUFFERS and
DBCC FREEPROCCACHE before each test. I've disabled all triggers that might be causing further slowdowns (although those would show up in the execution plan anyway). And I'm testing against older widgets, too, and noticing a significant speedup there as well; deletes that used to take 5 minutes now take 20-40 seconds.
Now I'm an ardent supporter of the "SELECT ain't broken" philosophy, but there just doesn't seem to be any logical explanation for this behaviour other than crushing, mind-boggling inefficiency of the
CASCADE DELETE relationships.
So, my questions are:
Is this a known issue with DRI in SQL Server? (I couldn't seem to find any references to this sort of thing on Google or here in SO; I suspect the answer is no.)
If not, is there another explanation for the behaviour I'm seeing?
If it is a known issue, why is it an issue, and are there better workarounds I could be using?

Sers and the rise of the Raman empire
16 December 2015 Feature
Dermot Martin looks at how Sers was invented and how it is expanding its sphere of influence
A sensor that identifies drugs compounds and monitors changes in their concentrations as they enter the body through an intravenous (IV) drip could prevent medication mistakes.
Over 60% of life-threatening errors during hospitalisation are attributed to the administration of incorrect dosages or combinations of IV drugs. Methods that detect and track drug administration in real time would add an extra layer of protection to IV drug delivery.
Recent research, led by Brian Cunningham at the University of Illinois in the US, has produced biomedical tubing that uses surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) to monitor the contents and concentrations of drugs within a patient's IV line.
This is not the first time that SERS has been used to monitor IV drug delivery but this time it has been integrated with a plasmonic nanodome array (PNA) surface. The PNA surface enhances the Raman signals by a factor of around 5×108, to a level much higher than other commercially available SERS surfaces. Drugs can therefore be monitored at a range well below typical dosages.
The plasmonic nanodome array surface enhances the Raman signals
The tubing could detect 10 pharmaceutical compounds with reproducible signals for a period of up to five days. For four of the drugs, the signal magnitude was dependent upon the drug concentration and combinations of compounds could also be detected, giving a much more detailed picture of a patient's medication.
Duncan Graham, a SERS expert at the University of Strathclyde in the UK, is impressed with 'the excellent sensitivity and reproducibility' shown by the device and says 'being able to monitor drug levels in a simple and rapid manner will be advantageous for patient treatment.' He adds that as common plastic tubing is used it is relatively compact and inexpensive to manufacture so could practically be adopted in a clinical setting as a single-use disposable device.
However, as Cunningham explains, 'a current limitation is that combinations of drugs result in complex Raman spectra with some overlapping peaks, particularly for drugs that have similar molecular structures.' Therefore, 'future work will involve the characterisation of bigger sets of multi-drug combinations as well as miniaturising the detection instrument'.

Fanfic Pet Peeves: No formatting, bad grammar, no spellcheck, Mary Sue's, and other unoriginal lame characters. If you ask me to read your fics but I see that your fics contain such things, I will not read your fic, no matter how much you ask. If I do read your fic, I have left a review for each and every chapter; it's how I am.
That is my main account on livejournal, the tags on the side can navigate you to Sladin fics.
This is where all my fanfics can be found. Eventually. Once I finish uploading all of them. >_>

Remembering Scunny McCusker
Mourning the loss of Nacho Mama's and Mama's on the Half Shell owner.
By Jess Mayhugh. Posted on August 27, 2012, 9:00 am
As Ron Cassie wrote about earlier, we were so incredibly saddened to hear about the death of Patrick "Scunny" McCusker, the owner of Nacho Mama's and Mama's on the Half Shell, who was killed riding a bicycle in Ocean City Friday night.
Our thoughts are with McCusker's family, close friends, and the tight-knit community that he built in Southeast Baltimore. Last year, I interviewed McCusker and asked him why he loved Canton, a neighborhood he was so instrumental in building when he opened Nacho Mama's 18 years ago:
Canton is like a small town they plucked out of the middle of suburbia and dropped into a city. The neighborhood has a real sense of itself, and a real sense of community. Plus, we have a waterfront for kayaking. We have a huge park for outdoor concerts. We have a lively square and tons of corner bars.
I opened Nacho Mama's 18 years ago and, along with the owners of Looney's, Claddagh, and Speakeasy, I've watched this neighborhood grow. When I first opened, a guy asked me why I was putting a Mexican restaurant in a Polish neighborhood. It's grown from that old-school, working-class feel to a place where people are settling down with their kids and raising families.
I have original customers of mine bringing in their grandkids now—which is a testament to the fact that people don't just live here, they stay here.
Thank you, Scunny, for creating that community. You will be sorely missed.
Funeral services are scheduled for 10 a.m. Wednesday at the Cathedral of Mary Our Queen and memorial contributions can be made to the Hopkins Children House's Believe in Tomorrow Children's Foundation, 6601 Frederick Rd., Baltimore, 21228.

F1 technology could help British troops in Afghanistan
The Ministry of Defence is to start testing Formula 1 technology to see if it can be used to help British forces serving in Afghanistan.
The hope is that microchips used to send data to engineers from F1 cars could be adapted to help commanders of armoured vehicles like Jackals, Ridgebacks, Mastiffs and Panthers.
If a vehicle is attacked or suffers a roadside bomb blast, the chip will be able to tell medics which part has been affected and what the likely injuries will be.
Trooper Ollie Parsons, from A Squadron the Household Cavalry Regiment, is a Jackal driver just back from Afghanistan.
He said: "It's definitely a good idea. Anything that helps make the vehicle better to use would be welcomed by the rest of the guys.
"It would enable us, if we did suffer an improvised explosive device (IED) blast, to know what's wrong with the vehicle straight away so we can either try and fix it or know we're still good to carry on.
"A bullet went through my jackal and knocked out my brakes.
"I didn't know at the time and ended up losing control.
"If I'd have had this new technology then I would have been able to handle the situation a lot better."
Tim Routsis is the CEO of Cosworth engines which supply the Williams Formula 1 team and is carrying out the research.
"Our job is to try and see if we can make vehicles survive IEDs better," he said.
"What we have to do is measure what happens to a vehicle when it gets hit and from that work out how to make it more survivable."
The first 'proof of concept' stage of this £200,000 contract will last a couple of months before engineers know if the system can work with Ministry of Defence vehicles.
If, as is hoped, it is a success further development would take about a year before the technology is ready to be put in place on the ground.
Wing Commander Jim Pennycook is a military advisor on defence technology.
He said: "It works very much like the black box in an aircraft, in that it constantly collects data about the vehicle that can be analysed.
"We're working with Cosworth to try and give the commander in the vehicle an instant assessment of the damage that has occurred if it's been hit by an IED.
"The aim is to investigate if we can get the same data transmitted back to base for the operational control there to decide whether there are any casualties and what sort of casualties they might be.
"That then gives the medical team on base advance warning to cope with those casualties."
