Isabel Allende the New York Times bestselling author whose books, including Maya's Notebook, Island Beneath the Sea, and Zorro, have sold more than 57 million copies around the world demonstrates her remarkable literary versatility with Ripper, an atmospheric, fast-paced mystery involving a brilliant teenage sleuth who must unmask a serial killer in San Francisco.
The Jackson women, Indiana and Amanda, have always had each other. Yet, while their bond is strong, mother and daughter are as different as night and day. Indiana, a beautiful holistic healer, is a free-spirited bohemian. Long divorced from Amanda's father, she's reluctant to settle down with either of the men who want her Alan, the wealthy scion of one of San Francisco's elite families, and Ryan, an enigmatic, scarred former Navy SEAL.
While her mom looks for the good in people, Amanda is fascinated by the dark side of human nature, like her father, the SFPD's Deputy Chief of Homicide. Brilliant and introverted, the MIT-bound high school senior is a natural-born sleuth addicted to crime novels and Ripper, the online mystery game she plays with her beloved grandfather and friends around the world.
When a string of strange murders occurs across the city, Amanda plunges into her own investigation, discovering, before the police do, that the deaths may be connected. But the case becomes all too personal when Indiana suddenly vanishes. Could her mother's disappearance be linked to the serial killer? Now, with her mother's life on the line, the young detective must solve the most complex mystery she's ever faced before it's too late.

Goldman Sachs: Reports of Huge Bonuses Have Been Exaggerated
They could be more like "ginormous" or merely "sizable."
Don't get too excited! Reports that Goldman Sachs is planning on doling out the biggest bonuses ever in the firm's 140-year history are "pure speculation," a spokesman tells the Daily News today. It's not that they're not going to be huge, the spokesman clarified, they just don't know how huge. "We won't know what our compensation benefit number is until the end of the fourth quarter, which is at the end of December." [NYDN]

Where Does Our Alphabet Come From?
We see it every day on signs, billboards, packaging, in books and magazines; in fact, you are looking at it now — the Latin or Roman alphabet, the world's most prolific, most widespread abc. Typography is a relatively recent invention, but to unearth the origins of alphabets, we will need to travel much farther back in time, to an era contemporaneous with the emergence of civilisation itself.

I disabled w3tc and website was fine for a week. One of the websites hosted on the server made the server unresponsive ( critically low on RAM). It could be the website I am working on.
I enabled the cache plugin, cleared the cache and disabled the plugin again. Then this error started to show:
Label 'http' already defined in
/var/www/vhosts/website/httpdocs/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/w3-total-cache/lib/W3/PgCache.php(1356) : eval()'d code on line 2
I 'fixed' the blank page and error by renaming the plugin folder name from 'w3-total-cache' to 'w3-total-cache-disabled'.
This however broke the image upload, additionally the images already uploaded were not visible in Add Media screen. So no images could have been added po posts.
I enabled the w3tc plugin again and disabled the page cache, leaving the Database cache and Object cache enabled.
How can I fix that error that shows up when I enable Page cache?

When Kinnell broke onto the scene it was as a tremendously gifted observer. What a Kingdom It Was is full of poems that are the surreal journalism of a loving eye fixed on a mad corner of a twisted and gorgeous world. Take, for example, this excerpt from "The Avenue":
The garbage-disposal truck
Like a huge hunched animal
That sucks in garbage in the place
Where other animals evacuate it
In Kinnell's early poetry, things are always in the act of doing. It is a poetry of action, a poetry in which things actually happen. It is also a poetry of fantastic words. Like Seamus Heaney, with whom he is often compared, Kinnell is a great neologist. In one poem, we hear a "roofleak whucking into a pail." In a later poem, we learn that "scritch" is the sound a pen makes writing poetry.
Kinnell's second book, here represented by eight poems, was Flower Herding on Mount Monadnock. A sorrowful tone invades these poems, as it does in a great deal of Kinnell's work. But Kinnell's sorrow is one that never accepts itself. He never seems to dwell. Always the desolation and heartbreak of the poems is tinged with the possibility of redemption. The title poem of the book, one of the collection's finest, chronicles a dawn trip up Mount Monadnock to pick flowers. Kinnell writes,
The last memory I have
Is of a flower that cannot be touched,
Through the bloom of which, all day,
Fly crazed, missing bees.
This "flower that cannot be touched" is a mystical predicament that haunts his poems. Forgotten are the flowers that could be touched, and were, and picked. All that remains is the image of this unattainable bloom, which itself contains, "crazed, missing bees." And like all great poets Kinnell has a knack for the opaque line, the line that cannot be touched at first. The adjective "missing" in this line throws us when we read it, as it is not a use we are familiar with. We assume that there is something in the bloom that is missing bees. Only at a second or third reading does the meaning reveal itself, like something in nature.
The poem ends with a meditation on a single flower in a forest. "Its drift," muses the poet, "is to become nothing." It is clear that Kinnell might not make the most productive flower herder in the wood. He writes,
In its covertness it has a way
Of uttering itself in place of itself
Its blossoms claim to float in the Empyrean
The appeal to heaven breaks off.
The petals begin to fall, in self-forgiveness.
It is a flower. On this mountainside it is dying.
Never one to state directly what he intends to mean, Kinnell here turns the flower, the pursued object of the poem, again into the thing that cannot be had. The flower turns away from the herder, and dies, in self-forgiveness. One gets the sense that the poet was holding his breath, knowing he was wandering among sacred happenings.
A beautiful short poem in the third book here collected ruminates on the poet's lost loves, the "ashes of old volcanoes." Having traced a leisurely course over some old nostalgic ground, Kinnell comes to this,
And yet I can rejoice
that everything changes, that
we go from life
into life,
and enter ourselves
like the tadpole, its time come, tumbling toward the slime.
This is characteristic of a great deal of Kinnell's sentiment. He rarely skirts a sorrowful thought or memory, but rather he lunges at it, takes it in his arms, unfolds each corner of it, lays it bare before us, and then comes to an "and yet." Always there is a sense of hope that springs from an understanding taken from the pathos. Yet even this hope is seldom left to serve as an uncomplicated finale. Though this poem must be said to end on a redemptive note, its literal end is in a tumble toward the slime.
In the more recent poems in this collection, Kinnell's voice softens and simplifies. He has several wonderful poems in later books about his son Fergus, including the oft-anthologized "After Making Love We Hear Footsteps," a poem about how Fergus, wakened by the sound of his parents' lovemaking, would appear in the doorway and crawl into bed with them, propelled by "habit of memory"to the ground of his making,/sleeper only the mortal sounds can sing awake,/this blessing love gives again into our arms."
It is a pleasure to have here collected a great body of life-spanning work and to be able to watch as Kinnell's distinctive voice slowly pares itself down, in self-forgiveness, its drift to become nothing.

Dear Mexican,
What is an anchor baby? I am a 45-year-old male born in the USA. My mother was born in ex-Yugoslavia (now Serbia), and my father was also born in ex-Yugoslavia (now Croatia). My father arrived to this country via a green card about four years before I was born, and my mother arrived 16 months before I was born after being petitioned to enter the United States by my father. I was the very first person in my entire family on both my mother's and father's side to be born in the U.S. When I was born, my father told my mother that now they will never be deported because they have an American-born son. Many years later, both of my parents became citizens. Today, I wonder: Was I an anchor baby? I speak good English, Spanish and some limited Serbian. I don't look Hispanic, but what do I tell my Hispanic friends?

Dear Yugo,
A so-called anchor baby is an American citizen — says so in the United States Constitution. In popular parlance, it's a term used by Know Nothings to deride the children of immigrants whom relatives can use to sponsor visas and other government goodies. Though the Know Nothings would love to have you believe only illegal Mexicans are capable of anchor babies, cases like yours have been occurring since the days of Virginia Dare.
"Anchor baby," on the other mano, is a slur of a recent provenance — the earliest mainstream media reference the Mexican found was a January 7, 1997, Providence Journal-Bulletin story that quoted Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) president Dan Stein as saying public benefits "encourage immigrant families to conceive 'anchor babies' so they can remain in this country and collect benefits." Stein — whose organization is listed as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center — can't claim the creator's mantle for the term, however: The excellent etymology Web site www.doubletongued.org lists a 1996 Usenet posting as the term's earliest recorded date, and I'm sure dinosaurs like the California Coalition for Immigration Reform and other pioneer anti-immigrant pendejos bandied it around before. As to how all this relates to you: You weren't an anchor baby. Your parents were already here legally, and your citizenship can't stop your parents from a trip with la migra. Hope this clears up things, and make sure to boil the Houston water before you drink it!
Dear Mexican,
I have read your book and religiously followed your stuff online. But I still am not informed enough about the sex lives of Mexican men. I fell in love with a man in Mexico, and I'm trying to find him again but I have a few questions. First of all, what is the average penis size of a Mexican man? I know that women are supposed to remain virgins until marriage — is this the same with men? Do they sleep around a lot if they don't have to be virgins? Also, are Mexican men good in bed?
The Suzanne that Fell Hard for Reno
Dear Gabacha,
Penis-size surveys are like Guatemalans — there are a bunch of them, but few are reputable. Using my own wang and life as an example, I'll say that the average Mexican man packs John Holmes in his pants, has no expectations of virginity before marriage before him but expects his conquests to have only seen a penis in a World Book Encyclopedia entry, beds ten mujeres a night, and is such an extraordinary lover that he could make a chick orgasm by uncapping his bottle of Tapat'o.
Ask the Mexican at firstname.lastname@example.com or myspace.com/ocwab!

Hi guys,
I'm building my first wordpress.org site after a long time using wordpress.com
I'm trying to get Category pages in my main navigation. I tried making a blank page off the dashboard panel and naming it
Peace News
However, this creates problems because the system will simply add "/category/peace" to the end of the page you click on, giving you links like "http://test.peacepaint.com/2009/06/12/green/green-jobs-sector-poised-for-explosive-growth/category/peace"
Also, sometimes if I click on "Green News", it takes me to that category, but sometimes it takes me to the top post of that category.. Strange.
Anyone know a better way I'm missing out on?

I've been looking through the forums, googling my butt off, and can't find anything that describes what I'm experiencing. And I need help getting rid of it.
A while back one of my posts got compromised with spam -- not in the form of a comment, or the post itself being edited, but rather this: the posts showed up normally on home page, but when you click a post title to go to the individual post (say, to leave a comment) you get a spam page. Not a bunch of spam links inserted into the post/page content, mind you, but a completely different web page hawking cheap drugs. However the URL is still the same URL as normal to view the post. This doesn't start happening up right away after publishing the post, but some time a little later.
The first time it happened, I figured it for a one-off deal, and promptly deleted the post and just copied its contents into a new post. But yesterday it happened again, so I thought I'd better take new measures.
First, I was long overdue for an upgrade anyway (was still using WordPress 2.0) so I installed the automatic upgrade plugin and upgraded to the latest. Then I changed my user password and ssh/ftp password at my web host. Then I posted to the blog saying, in effect, "sorry about the spam thing, but I went ahead and did this and this and hopefully it won't happen again."
This morning I find out it happened again -- to that very post:
http://nothinghappens.net -- the home page, post looks normal
http://nothinghappens.net/?p=316 -- holy crap wtf
Here are some more interesting details I've dug up: If you add a trailing / to the URL you get the post again instead of the spam site. Check it out: http://nothinghappens.net/?p=316/ However, before you tell me to check my .htaccess -- I don't have one. Also, I looked at the post's record in the database via phpMyAdmin and nothing's been done to it there.

Party Scene:
It's not a state school but for an Ivy it's pretty great
Party Scene:
Not the same as a state school but for an Ivy it's pretty great
Superb academics with wonderful professors
Drug Safety:
Tough when necessary but mostly very relaxed
Overall Experience:
Quality of professors has been wonderful except for some lower level science courses like physics and chemistry
Health & Safety:
It is clearly very important to the administration and I have always felt safe
Campus Housing:
Some dorms are better than others but almost all the freshman dorms are very very nice
Greek Life:
Greek life is not too big so it is always an option but not a necessity.
Although varsity sports aren't the most exciting the extensive interest in intramurals makes up for it.
Overall Experience:
The academics can be difficult especially as a premed student. However the environment and people you surround yourself with are incomparable.
Overall Experience:
Brown's liberal curriculum, prestigious faculty, and inspiring classes made my experience extremely rewarding.
Overall Experience:
Brown Connect is a very useful and student friendly platform for job search, alumni networking and opportunity exploring.
Health & Safety:
Brown makes me feel secure and cared all the time, in that I myself have never felt my safety was challenged, and people with safety problems are taken perfect care of.
Campus Housing:
Dorms at Brown were called "hotels" for legit reasons.
Greek Life:
I love how Greek life always takes part in campus life, but is never too huge or messy.
Sport remains an integral part of campus life, though not as huge as in state schools. In stead of being overwhelmingly competitive, Brown holds an open and mild attitude toward athletes and instrumental players, so that no one is under great pressure but we simply enjoy sports as an exciting activity.
Overall Experience:
Brown provides students with a liberal environment full of opportunities, so that each student has the aspiration and passion to pursue their interests and specialties. I enjoyed the extremely insightful advising services provided by professors and advisors, in that they do not only think of you as a student, but more as a person in the society. Brown is where you discover unlimited potentials, sharpen your abilities, and become proud of who you are and what you achieve.
Overall Experience:
Most classes, especially in the humanities, are small which allows for more participation and discussion. It is fairly easy to get a hold of professors. Students are generally supportive of one another.
Overall Experience:
Most students usually get an internship, job, or research opportunity in the summer.
Health & Safety:
Brown has been taking more security measures on campus.
Campus Housing:
Residential halls do not have air-conditioning units. It is very hot in the summer. Some dorms are very old, but for the most part, the dorms are relatively spacious.
Greek Life:
There are a variety of different frat and sororities with different emphases.
I do not frequently attend sport events and games.
Overall Experience:
Brown's undergraduate student population is very engaged in the issues across campus. Student groups are actively involved in making a difference outside of campus as well.
Overall Experience:
If you're intellectually curious, Brown is the school for you. I love the open curriculum and although the workload can be heavy at times, there is a lot of grade inflation and it is easy to get A's. There are only a few downsides to going here. Although the campus is gorgeous and the brick buildings give it that classic Ivy-League feel, but that comes at a cost- a lot of the amenities are outdated. Also, even though we have an amazing, intelligent, liberal student body, many (if not most) of the students seem to be very sheltered and immature, which is nothing out of the ordinary at an Ivy. However, with a reputation as the "different" Ivy, students at Brown are slightly less hoity-toity compared to the typical Ivy-Leaguer. As long as you're friendly to everyone and try keep an open mind, you're golden.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Brown has a reputation that precedes itself. As an Ivy League school, Brown carries a distinction that many students desire, while knowing little about what they need or want in a liberal arts education. In that sense, Brown's liberal nature and open curriculum exceed that of the average liberal arts school. Many students redefine and rediscover themselves in college, and Brown's biggest strength is that it promotes individual development and self-discovery over the course of the undergraduate career. Internally, you have a lot of chances to make mistakes, which the University calls "discoveries," in the course of your studies. It's easy to change your concentration in the fifth or even sixth semester.

I have been crocheting for years, i have used all different brands of cotton yarn for dishcloths. Bernat yarn is by far one of the nicest. Being able to buy multiple colors is great. I hope walmart brings it into the store to buy, not just online.
This is great yarn and has a big variety that is not in the stores. So I order site to store. Have made many Christmas gifts with it so far. Love it.
Great for the price...and there is so much of it.
Will continue to buy this yarn . Wish they had lots more peaches and cream in cones and small balls.
I have not used the Bernat yarns that I purchased, yet. I chose the creamcycle, robin egg blue and the pinks. The colors (especially the robin egg blue) was not quite as deep/bright as represented in the picture as I thought would be. But I am pleased with the amount of yarn in the skein. I have been using Sugar 'N Cream, so I am eager to see how the Bernat works up.
Bright color, generous quantity
I love working with cotton yarn
It was so nice to work with. Made a beautiful baby blanket.
I love the cotton yarn and I used this along with hot pink and it turned out beautiful. I used both yarns at the same time. The colors are bright and rich. I also like the Bernat cotton yarns.
The colors on the picture match the actual colors of the yarn. Love the texture and the color: cream popsicle and lime pie. Using them to make afgan for my friend's baby.
I got this yarn originally from another store as a clearance item & was surprised to find additional skeins on this website. I am using the yarn to loom knit a blanket.
Ordering on line gives me more variety than what is available in the store.
It's great to have another option for purchasing yarn.

Continued growth in passenger numbers leads to new Friarage Hospital shuttle bus contract
The number of passengers using the free shuttle bus between The Friarage Hospital, Northallerton, and James Cook University Hospital, Middlesbrough, is continuing to grow, meaning the service has been extended for a year until March 2016.
Most recent figures collected by Hambleton, Richmondshire and Whitby Clinical Commissioning Group (HRW CCG) – which funds the bus – show that in March 2015 more than 200 people used the bus in a single week. This is almost triple the number of people using the bus back in November 2014.
This growing success means HRW CCG has awarded the contract to current providers Procters Coach Hire, of Leeming Bar, until 31 March 2016. This was following an open tender process.
Andrew Fryatt, General Manager at Procters Coaches, said: "We are really pleased that the hospital shuttle bus has been continued until 2016. The hospital shuttle bus has proved to be an extremely useful service for people travelling between the two hospitals and the increase in passenger numbers reflects that.
"We are delighted to have been awarded the contract and we are looking forward to continuing this service for another year."
Over the coming months, the CCG will be surveying travellers to find out what they think about the service and why they are taking the journey.

Skip to comments.What Obama Said At Ramadan Dinner Last Night.....
Posted on 08/11/2011 2:24:54 PM PDT by TaraP
O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. Matthew 12:34
The following quotes from Obama should let you know exactly how he feels.
To the millions of Muslim Americans across the United States and more the more than one billion Muslims around the world, Ramadan is a time of reflection and a time of devotion. Its an occasion to join with family and friends in celebration of a faith known for its diversity and a commitment to justice and the dignity of all human beings. So to you and your families, Ramadan Kareem.
This evening reminds us of both the timeless teachings of a great religion (Islam) and the enduring strengths of a great nation. Like so many faiths, Islam has always been part of our American family, and Muslim Americans have long contributed to the strength and character of our country, in all walks of life. This has been especially true over the past 10 years.
Nor let us forget that every day for these past 10 years Muslim Americans have helped to protect our communities as police and firefighters, including some who join us tonight. Across our federal government, they keep our homeland secure, they guide our intelligence and counterterrorism efforts and they uphold the civil rights and civil liberties of all Americans. So make no mistake, Muslim Americans help to keep us safe.
because no matter who we are, or how we pray, were all children of a loving God.
"Death to America"?
That's pretty much it....
Of course he said nice stuff... he hadn't eaten all day.
Will the NEXT president be able to cancel these Ramadan dinners?
and the media acts like anyone who thinks barry is a muslim is out of left field.. well if he isn't a muslim, he sure is a muslim-ass-kisser
Soebarka thinks hes the son of Allah.
He's a Muslim..He plans Economic Jihad daily from the White House....
"Will the NEXT president be able to cancel these Ramadan dinners?"
Maybe, but GW Bush started them.
I think this crazy Mozlem believes this krap. I really do. Even knowing that our Marines were formed to go beat the krap out of Islamic pirates on the Barbary Coast. And quite frankly, my memory is still in tact enough to know that there has been no Abu Dabu Mohammad Awalaki sounding name that has ever contributed a blasted thing to the greatness of this country. NEVER!
Obama Easter Address: President Hails 'Shared Spirit Of Humanity'
On this Easter weekend," he said, "let us hold fast to those aspirations we hold in common as brothers and sisters, as members of the same family — the family of man..
He also embraced a broader, more ecumenical audience. "While we worship in different ways," the president said, "we also remember the shared spirit of humanity that inhabits us all — Jews and Christians, Muslims and Hindus, believers and nonbelievers alike."
He's a Muslim or the Devil incarnate himself...
"I stand with my Muslim Brothers!"
"Now imagine that you are 90% good on the Islamic Scales and you are standing before this perfect Holy God. And your garment glows crimson red with 10% of your acts having been evil. How will you survive? ... Good luck with that!"
Bush continued them.
Obama relishes them.
Sorry....I think I would havecancelled this one. If they don't like it....TOUGH!!
Pork skins for Hor D'ouvres works well as a room-clearer in these settings.
Actually, Clinton started them.
"Death To The Great Satan!"
No. But he can serve pork.
Of course he said nice stuff... he hadnt eaten all day.
Good point.
"he hadnt eaten all day"
He sounded like he had been hitting the ramadan bong hard.
His cotton mouth makes him whistle more than a traffic cop at rush hour.
Sorry Hoss. Bush continued them after Bubba Clinton started them.
Ramadan is a time for Muslims to rest up and meet to decide what Christian Church's they are going to burn ,and how many Christian families to slaughter.
Wow. Talk about taqiyya. He's lying his little head off.
I guess the Commies only want to keep church and state separate when it's orthodox Christian churches they're talking about.
".. a faith known for its diversity and a commitment to justice and the dignity of all human beings."
um, yeah. the dignity of women is especially their focus.
Don't see why not. Didn't Obimbo cancel Easter wishes?
Her Husband hosted them then thru his term as Pres.
Followed by GWB..
Why does everyone want to always 'BLAME BUSH'?

#14385 closed (duplicate)
Standardize Site/RequestSite access; looser coupling of sites framework in contrib
|Reported by:
|Owned by:
|Contrib apps
|Triage Stage:
|Has patch:
|Needs documentation:
|Needs tests:
|Patch needs improvement:
|Easy pickings:
A few days ago I started this thread on the Django Developers list in order to solve a number of tickets at the same time. The gist:
All of these tickets relate to needing access to the current domain, whether that's through a Site instance, or through a RequestSite instance. To facilitate this, the provided patch adds a utility function, django.contrib.sites.models.get_current_site which takes a request as an argument and returns either a Site or RequestSite instance.
Using that utility function, a lot of repetitious code could be removed and streamlined, and several tickets were trivial to resolve.
Included in this patch:
- Adds the django.contrib.sites.models.get_current_site function.
- Provides a note in the contrib.sites docs regarding the function.
- Converts to contrib.sites tests from doctests to unit tests and adds a test for get_current_site
- Resolves #8960 by allowing django.contrib.contenttypes.views.shortcut to use either a Site or RequesSite object.
- Converts contrib.contenttypes tests from doctests to unit tests and adds a test for #8960.
- Resolves #10235 and #10909 by using get_current_site in the Sitemaps framework.
- Adds test case for #10235/#10909.
- Updates django.contrib.syndication.views to use `get_current_site.
- Updates django.contrib.gis.sitemaps.views to use get_current_site as per #10608.
- Updates django.contrib.auth.views.login to use get_current_site.
The patch passes the full test suite under WinXP/Py2.6/SQLite.
This patch would completely fix #8960, #10235, and #10909. The remainder of #10608 is actually invalid, because the remaining places where contrib apps rely on contrib.sites the model has a direct relation to Site, or there is no way to access a request object to use RequestSite. Any further decoupling in contrib would require backwards-incompatible rewrites.

I wore this dress to an assembly for Jehovahs witnesses and I received so many compliments.. The sisters would stop me just to tell me how wonderful I looked and how great the dressed was. Exceeded far beyond my expectations..i would buy the other color once I see it in stock and definitely would recommend to a friend..
So i read the reviews before I bought it and people were saying how the sizing was off so i bought a size up which was probably a mistake...I got the cream and black and it wasn't as fitted as I wanted to be..so basically order your normal size...i'm 5'8 270ish and I usually wear inbetween a 1x and 2x but I figured "oh,it's gonaa run small,"I ordered a 3!I may return it and get a 2x for the fit of it. the length is pass the knees which is great for church or work...walmart's shipping was so fast! they told me it would come in 2weeks and it came overnight instead.
I really love this dress. It truly complements my plus size figure.
This is a really cute stylish dress. It is also an unbelievable value and price. I also want to add since this is not covered under the overall rating system is that the first order was "lost". I had specifically ordered this dress and another one for a Valentine's Night celebration but with 5 days until that date and no order in sight (in spite of it expected to arrive 10 days before V-Day-I did order 2 weeks before). When I shared my "dilemma" and "concerns" with the Wal-mart customer service rep she told me "No problem". She sent the second order with expedited shipping and even gave me some pointers on how to deal with at home deliveries in the future. I did not ask for this V.I.P. treatment but she gave it willingly and with such grace. I was absolutely impressed with her genuine concern, courtesy and her professionalism. I do 95% of my shopping online because I have advanced arthritis. Wal-mart is one of my first "go to" sites for my shopping needs. Now I can add great customer service besides great values and prices! WTG Wal-mart!
Very impressed. Only issue I have is with the waistline. Is it empire or standard or do I need more chest? I'm 5'11 and the dress hits mid knee. I'll be buying the other color.
I bought this dress a couple of weeks ago. I wasn't sure if it would fit or not, but it fit perfectly. It's very slimming and is curve-hugging. Great value for the price! My only comment would be that I would have liked it to have been a couple of inches shorter as it comes a little bit below my knee (I'm 5 ft. 4 inches tall), but I could get it shortened. All in all, a great modern dress that I love!
I ordered this dress 2 weeks ago. It came promptly and in tact. I ordered the houndstooth pattern and let say I felt gorgeous in this dress. I am a size 18 on the bottom and a 12/14 up top and this dress hugged every curve on my body just right. Wore it to church and my husband was amazed and I received many compliments. The length was perfect and I felt comfy through a 2 hour service. This dress definitely looks like it's worth more than $25 bucks. Purchase was well worth it. Word to the wise: Wear nude or black undergarments, the houndstooth panel is a little see through due to the white, but as long as you aren't wearing hot pink bra/panties you will be fine!
I received the MOST compliments in this dress! It is a good length it goes down past my knees which keeps it conservative. I had a lot of fun with this on V day the boo loved it. I also like the sleeves. The dress was a nice fit. I say stick to your usually size; if you are a solid size stick to that because you want it to hug!
Tried this on after it was delivered, went to ask my husband how it looked and my kids all said that i looked so pretty. no better praise than that in my opinion.
I love this dress. I had to go up a size can usually wear a 3x 22-24 however the 4x was 22-24. I wish it came in other colors.
this dress really looked good on me, was very comfortable
I ordered this in size 18 and fits true to size. However, the red portion is more centered and not as wide as pictured--there's more black. Thought I could get a less expensive version of the Stella McCartney silhouette dresses that are the rage--in this you get what you paid for--a cheap knockoff. The material is light and not that good a quality, the fit is not that great and it did not give a slimming look at all. Also the torso is cut at the waist instead of a streamlined look so it defeats the purpose of a slimming silhouette. Returned it.
This dress is so cute, and a classy kind of sexy. I ordered the red and black and was so excited to get it...however when I tried it on, it fit nicely in the shoulders and hips, but was extremely baggy at the waist...the waist seam also seemed too low...it was closer to my hips. The fit just felt strange and off. I don't think adding a belt would help, because I think the fabric would pucker around it. I thought about ordering the next size down but I think it'd be too tight on my hips, so I guess I'm just returning it.
If u read reviews as a deciding factor on a purchase like myself then make the purchase. The fabric, fit and style is perfect for the price! Oh, in the style is also slimming. So to all my fabulous sisters with the perfect shoes, accessories and a black clutch. You'll be turning heads. I did! LOL!!!
This dres is great it showes off your curs and accentuates that you are a beautiful woman. I love the feel and how it makes me look. I looked so good a girlfriend purchased the dress once she saw me in it.
Although I loved how the dress was designed and the look of it, I had to return it because it was too small for me. Too bad because I was looking forward to being seen in this dress. Oh well.....
I love the length of the dress but it wasn't as flattering to my body as I hoped it would be....hoping that maybe it will once I lose a few pounds or I might have to return
for someone that is tall. i'm 5"4 and even with heels this dress was way too long on me. love the colorblock and it's very slimming, i had to send it back :(
I thought this dress was very attractive and well made, If it was sized up in another size, I would have gotten it for myself. But well made.
this dress is so nice, looks like one i saw at a high end store for $100!! very sexy yet conservative... a must get!!

I am aware that Linux distributions usually have 'package managers' to allow me to download and install software from the command line, and that I should also be able to download and compile source code from the Web. But I am not sure about how best to do either of these things on the Raspberry Pi.
APT is the package manager under Debian, for Raspberry Pi or any other system. The command line tool curl is installed in this example.
You need to be connected to the Internet.
If you haven't done so recently it is worth running,
This updates the list of packages that are available to apt-get.
Then use apt-cache to search for the package that you want to install, in this case,
Every package name or description with the word 'curl' in it will be displayed in a list. This is useful in cases where you are not sure as to the exact name of the package that you want to install.
Once you have the name of the package that you want, install it as follows,
If you're not sure what you're looking for or just wish to browse through what's available, you can alternatively use the menu-driven tool Aptitude:
Pacman is the package manager used in Arch Linux.
Synchronize Repositories and update System
Search for a Package

Yum is the default package manager used in Fedora.
Update Installed Packages
Get Package Information
Install New Package
Remove Installed Package
As MINImalistic raspBIAN is, at its heart, still a Debian derivative, the apt tools are the tools of choice for this damn sexy OS. Thus, almost anything said about Debian also applies to MINIBIAN, except, of course, since it is not only designed to be "mini", but in fact is minimalistic, there will be a lot of "Ign"(ore) messages while running the "apt-get update" command.

Embattled Hearts (Military Romantic Suspense) (Lost And Found Series)
By J.M. Madden / Genre: Police Procedurals, Mystery & Thrillers / Rating: 4.7 out of 5 stars (141 reviews)
John Palmer hasn't felt like a real man since he was injured during combat in Iraq. Though not content with his new life, he is mostly adapting, just like the other vets at the Lost 'N' Found Investigative Service. When Shannon Murphy is hired on as the new office manager, life suddenly gets a lot more interesting. Before long, John finds himself wondering if he could ever be the kind of man Shannon needs.
Shannon Murphy wasn't really looking for love when she hired on at LNF, but finds herself hopelessly attracted to the sex-on-wheels former Marine, John Palmer. The man is grumpy and nearly impossible to work with, but his brand of masculinity appeals to her on a basic level. Soon Shannon is wondering just what it would take for John to want her the way she wants him.
When an old enemy tries to settle a vendetta against Shannon, John insists on protecting her. He moves into her house, fanning the spark of attraction into a blaze. But the danger continues to escalate. Will the connection that they've found survive when they're thrust into a fight for their lives?

Chasing the Star Garden (The Airship Racing Chronicles)
By Melanie Karsak / Genre: Science Fiction, Romance / Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars (61 reviews)
An opium-addicted beauty.
An infamous poet living in self-imposed exile.
An ancient treasure about to fall into the wrong hands.
Melanie Karsak's Chasing the Star Garden takes readers on a thrilling adventure from the gritty opium dens of gaslamp London to the gem-colored waters of the ancient world. Lily Stargazer, a loveable but reckless airship racer with a famous lover and shattered past, reluctantly plunges into a centuries-old mystery in a steampunk romantic adventure best described as Dan Brown meets Mary Shelley.
It all begins on one of the worst days of Lily's life. She just lost the London leg of the 1823 Airship Grand Prix. To top it off, a harlequin fleeing from constables shoved a kaleidoscope down her pants, told her to fly to Venice, then threw himself from her airship tower. What's a girl to do? For Lily, the answer is easy: drink absinthe and smoke opium.
Lily's lover, Lord Byron, encourages her to make the trip to Venice. Lily soon finds herself at the heart of an ancient mystery which has her running from her past and chasing true love and the stars along the way.

Blind Love (Sulfur Heights Series)
By M.S. Brannon / Genre: Contemporary, Romance / Rating: 4.9 out of 5 stars (51 reviews)
"She is magnetic to me. Every emotion she feels pulls me that much closer to her charm and energy. For reasons unbeknownst to me, I want her to know what she means to me." ~Jake Evans
For Jake Evans, life was as it should be. No responsibilities. He was the master at embracing his reckless lifestyle whenever it presented itself. Surviving on his ability to expertly hustle, fight and womanize, Jake could do it all; lived it all.
Raised in a rundown city, filled with crime and drugs, he had survived the death of an abusive mother and a life with an absent father while only having his brothers to depend on. His lifestyle became fast and Jake had lived it the only way he knew how, until the day he met Delilah.
Delilah St. James was the epitome of flawless. Brought up in an affluent southern household, Delilah's life had been planned from the moment she was born. She was raised to be the perfect socialite and daughter, and groomed to be the ideal wife. When a school internship moved her to Sulfur Heights for the summer, Delilah collided with the bitter reality of life outside her comfortable gated community when Jake Evans upset her perfect world.
Over the next two years, Jake and Delilah became best friends, embracing a friendship neither one was prepared to have, although they soon found it to be a relationship that neither one of them were willing to sacrifice.
A tragic turn of events brings Jake and Delilah together once again. Only this time, the feelings are different. Lines within their friendship are blurred. Everything they vowed never to do, becomes the very thing they cannot deny. Will Jake and Delilah's relationship withstand the changes surrounding them? Or will the emotions sever the two year friendship they'd fought so hard to keep?

Marly wonders how she could ever have believed it. Jilted and pregnant, she's come back to Marietta with her tail between her legs, the blow to her ego huge as she begins working at her family's small newspaper, the Copper Mountain Courier, and sharing a tiny apartment with her disapproving mom.
Things can't get any worse. Or maybe they can. Drake Everett, who secretly captured her teenaged heart and then publicly trampled on it, decides to make her re-acquaintance. Though Drake isn't the sharp, funny, cocky, arrogant rich boy of yore. These days he seems sharp, funny… and supportive and decent, and Marly realizes she could fall for him all over again… if she listens to her heart. But what about her reporter's head, which has sniffed out a story that paints Drake as the sweet talker she's always known…?

AbstractAlthough a number of airportal surface models exist and have been successfully used for analysis of airportal operations, only recently has it become possible to conduct detailed validation of such models through the use of airport surface surveillance data. In this effort, we propose to go a step further than existing models, by actually incorporating empirically-derived airport surface control practices into NASA's overall airportal simulation modeling capability. This effort will produce tools to support fundamental research of the concept and requirements for airportal operations in the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) by providing microscopic airportal surface modeling components that provide higher fidelity and greater validity of modeling than previously available. Through this effort we will use the Surface Operations Data Analysis and Adaptation (SODAA) tool to conduct detailed analysis of airport surface operations using actual data.

Getting firsthand information from an actual car owner is one sure way to get an idea of car performance once it leaves the lot. Autobytel features real consumer reviews that give the unbiased experience of a car.
Pros: Driving with the roof open and hearing the exhaust growl.
Cons: Absence of CD changer. Only one cup holder?
Advice: Drive the CLK 320 AND 500 back to back. Go for the extra grunt and appearance.This car is awesume. You will love the performance and braking. Be careful and watch your speed, since you are moving faster than you think... The absence of the B pillar makes a stunning appearance package. Watch your friends drool when when you drop the windows down from the key fob. If you want a convertible and a coupe in one car this is it.

wtf? talk about NO CONCEPT. Cmon guys, think before you post. Just because your client gave you a pat on the back with these ads doesn't necessarily make them good.
sorry if I was a little hard back there btw.
looks like each ad uses a girl to represent the kind of food they serve. but mostly, it's pretty pictures with headlines.
Do they also have slot machines for headlines in Vegas?
And those cop glasses are some sort of 'introduction to 3D modelling'.
Lucky juniors. I bet they make a lot of money out of this crap.
It works for American audience but not for the rest of the world so that why you might not get the point.

My understanding is that I get better longevity with pigmented inks. My last two printers have been pigmented.
Please comment briefly on the features you look for in a desktop photo printer.
I just recently purchased an Epson R1800 for the exact reason that it was pigmented ink. Now I don't like that Epsons use more ink than Canons, but Epson has more paper options and print longevity.
Already have an Epson R1800 which replaced a Canon dye-based printer. I have added the Media Street Niagara inking system, and am highly pleased with the result. Ink cost is WAY down, print quality is excellent, and 100+ years archival life is wanted. Barring mechanical failure, it will take a MAJOR improvement in equipment to make me change now.
I'm new to the world of desktop printing (specifically, meaning photographs) but what I mainly look for is accessible toner/print cartridges (not necessarily cheaper just easy to find/buy) and, of course, a printer that prints next-to-professional quality prints (comparing to, say, London Drugs). Cost is not an issue but quality is.
The total cost (printer, ink, paper, etc) and the functionality (how well it works, paper size, etc) are the drivers for my decisions. I have not seen a great dye sub that will produce the large prints I want. Am I missing something?
If I'm not mistaken, Epson offers a couple models that can take both dye- and pigment-based inks. Besides, with each new generation of inks, consumers are able to make prints that have increased saturation and resistance to fading.

Naphtha Declines as Vitol Sells; ICE Gasoil Falls: Oil Products
European naphtha fell for the first time this week as Vitol Group sold a cargo, bringing its total to at least 15 lots this month.
European gasoline's crack, or premium to Brent crude, declined to the lowest in more than two weeks. Gasoil dropped on the ICE Futures Europe exchange in London.
Light Products
Vitol sold the 12,500 metric-ton cargo of naphtha to Trafigura Beheer BV at $902, down from a deal at $904 yesterday, according to a Bloomberg survey of traders and brokers monitoring the Platts pricing window.
Naphtha's crack, or discount to Brent, widened for the first time this week, to $8.28 a barrel as of 2:02 p.m. local time, according to data from PVM Oil Associates Ltd., a broker in London. It was at $8.73 on Jan. 11, the biggest spread in more than five months.
Gasoline barges in the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp oil hub changed hands at $964 a ton, according to the Platts window survey. That's down from $964 to $970 yesterday. Gunvor Group Ltd. sold the Eurobob grade, to which ethanol is added to finished fuel, to Trafigura and Cargill Inc.
Gasoline's crack, a measure of refining profit, shrank 64 cents to $5.87 a barrel, according to PVM data. That's the lowest since Dec. 31.
Middle Distillates
Diesel barges changed hands at $12 to $14.50 a ton more than February gasoil on the ICE Futures Europe exchange, according to the survey of Platts. That's little changed from yesterday. Total SA, Argos Groep BV, Royal Dutch Shell Plc and Glencore International Plc were sellers, while Morgan Stanley, Phillips 66, Hess Corp.'s Hetco, Fritz Meyer AG and Vitol were buyers.
Gunvor sold two barges of heating oil at parity to February futures, unchanged from yesterday, the survey showed. Vitol and Shell bought.
JPMorgan Chase & Co. sold a low-sulfur heating oil barge to Belgomine NV at $9 a ton more than February futures. That compares with plus $14.50 on Jan. 14.
Shell sold two barges of jet fuel, one at a $69 a ton premium to February gasoil and the other at a $3 discount to benchmark prices, the survey of Platts showed.
German household heating oil tanks were 58.7 percent full in December, according to Ipsos Loyalty GmbH. That's down from 59.9 percent in November and compares with 57.6 percent a year earlier, data sent today in an e-mailed report show.
Commercial inventories fell to 38.4 percent last month, versus 41.5 percent in November. The stockpiles were at 45 percent in December 2011, the Ipsos data showed.
Gasoil for February delivery declined $7.50, or 0.8 percent, to $953.25 a ton as of 5:29 p.m. on ICE. The contract's backwardation, or premium to March, was $7.50 a ton. This market structure can signal rising near-term demand or falling supply.
"With this backwardation and the decent winter weather, there will not be a lot of distillates left in tank when winter comes to an end and the diesel demand starts to kick in," Olivier Jakob, managing director of Switzerland-based researcher Petromatrix GmbH, said today in a note.
Temperatures in Frankfurt are forecast to drop to minus 6 degrees Celsius (21 Fahrenheit) on Jan. 19 from minus 3 today, according to data from CustomWeather Inc. Temperatures will also fall below zero in London, Paris and Amsterdam this week, the data show.
Gasoil's crack weakened to $17.32 a barrel versus $17.58 at 4:30 p.m. yesterday. Brent rose 0.3 percent to $110.60 a barrel.
High-sulfur fuel oil changed hands from $603 to $604 a ton, the survey of Platts showed. That compares with $603.50 to $605 the previous session. The low-sulfur grade traded at $633 a ton, versus $633 to $636 yesterday.

Midfielder Bailey is suspended after collecting his fifth yellow card of the season against Barnsley last weekend and striker Waghorn cannot play as he is on loan from the Foxes.
Boss Steve Lomas also has a doubt over Liam Trotter, who missed the Barnsley win with a groin problem, but fellow midfielder Jimmy Abdou could return following a knee knock.
Striker Scott McDonald (hamstring) and defenders Scott Malone and Mark Beevers (both knee) came through unscathed last weekend following recent lay-offs and should be involved again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 7 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Powershopper Beautiful and comfortable I liked this throw because of the pattern and the fringes. The pattern, herringbone, is very well done and the best part of it are the fringes. They are individually knotted so they will not get tangled before or after washing. It is very easy care and warm. I got it during a percent off sale but it is worth the money and will last a long time. May 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by grandma10 Rave Reviews I bought this throw to go with the color scheme in my living room after I read the rave reviews for Brahms Mount. I knew the Maple color would blend very well with my chocolate sofa and honey beige carpeting. Now I understand the reviews: this is a quality product; gorgeous to look at with a wonderful, chunky "hand". You can tell that the fringe is hand knotted. I raved about this throw to my girlfriend. January 5, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by ser5766 Great throw I love this herringbone throw. The fabric and weight is ideal and best of all, it's machine washable! I have already washed it a few times and it still looks beautiful. November 7, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Blanketthrow I loved this throw! Unfortunately, my decorator did not. I had to send it back. Loved the feel, weight, etc. The color just wasn't what she wanted. October 14, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by stonecleve The best there is. It was very difficult to talk myself out of ordering one of these because I am familiar with the quality but I have too many throws. Last year I purchased two Brahms Mount blankets as gifts for my niece and god daughter and they loved them! They feel wonderful. They are flawlessly constructed, the kind of quality that is never found any more. They will last forever and get better with age. I am so happy to see more Brahms Mount of Maine products here. December 26, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by EB53 Wonderful! I have wanted one of the Brahms Mountain throws forever, but just couldn't make myself put out so much money, so I signed up for daily notifications in case it ever became the sale of the day, and it DID! So soft and wonderfully made. I'm delighted, even more so at the sale price! November 20, 2012

Mountains to Molehills: 'Larger problem'
Published: Friday, February 21, 2014 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, February 19, 2014 at 6:08 p.m.
Folks, if you think the National Security Agency is going way too far with its data collection programs, there's a bigger worry, to hear Gary Crider of Hendersonville tell it. "Websites, advocacy groups, tech and social media companies are urging Americans to contact government representatives to ask that they end or limit the NSA's data collection policies, with limited or no affect on law-abiding citizens. Limiting the NSA's ability to look for terrorists is more than political rhetoric. It is providing a diversion from personal data security and identity theft issues, a larger problem," explains Mr. Crider. "Facebook, Google, Amazon and dot-com Internet companies gather information about your shopping habits while gathering personal credit data, which enables hackers to steal your identity. If you doubt their ability to track you, visit any Internet site, look at several products, and within minutes you will see pop-up ads for these and similar products. Target estimated 110 million were exposed to identity theft from its security breach, and the Chicago Tribune reported 27 million identity thefts in the past five years alone. We don't know how many average Americans are affected by NSA data collection policies, but they're smaller, or we would hear about them on all 24-hour news organizations. During your call to government representatives, ask for stronger identity theft protection, jobs bills and improved NSA oversight, but don't limit its ability to protect America."
'INSTILLING FEAR': Joseph Haley of Hendersonville congratulates the Mountains to Molehills reader who "skewered the specious — even untrue — claims" made by gun advocates regarding Adolf Hitler seizing weapons from Jewish people. "Incidentally," says Mr. Haley, "the Jews in Europe are still disarmed but don't much mind because so is everybody else. A typical difference is that last year in all of Germany, police fired 49 shots — 29 were warnings. Our people can do that in one incident. An example is the Mexican teenager shot 11 times, seven in the back, for allegedly throwing stones. Is the NRA run by paranoids? They've won every case and put guns everywhere but jail cells. Is that next? Every new massacre sells guns galore, and they got a law passed that any bill mentioning gun control will not be funded. And yet they behave as if tonight the president will confiscate all their guns. Their overall style is instilling fear."
QUIPS A WAG: "When Columbus started out, he didn't know where he was going. When he got there, he didn't know where he was. When he got back, he didn't know where he had been. And he did it all on other people's money. What a politician he would make today!"
FOLLOW THE SIGNS: A salesman asked where the manager's office was located. The girl at the information desk directed him: "Follow the passage until you come to a sign reading 'No Admittance.' Then go upstairs until you see the sign that reads 'Keep Out.' Follow the corridor until you see the sign that reads 'Silence.' Then just yell."
ODDS AND ENDS: The Blue Ridge Chapter of the American Guild of Organists will offer a workshop, "Working with Finale," from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday at Grace Lutheran Church, Hendersonville. "Finale" is a musical notation software widely used by performing musicians, teachers and composers. The workshop is open to the public. The cost is $10 for adults and $5 for students. The leader of the workshop will be Joseph Miller of Rock Hill, S.C., a composer, guitarist and audio engineer. He has created original music and sound design elements for award-winning feature films, national TV series, marketing campaigns, theater companies, etc. For more information, contact Charlie Steele at 884-2645, ext. 31, or Annette Hudson at 693-3081.

A day that dawns like this is sure to be nice
Our objective for the day from the south side. We would end up ascending the mountain straight up the slope in the center of the photo
We picked a random dirt road on the NE side of San Antonio Mountain as our trailhead
Heading out around 8:30am
Our plan was simple. Run cross country around San Antonio Mountain at about the 9,100 foot contour, head to the summit eventually and return to the car
The going was a bit tough most of the time but the occasional game trail helped us out
A clear and dry enough day to see the Blanca group of 14ers in Colorado
30 minutes into the run we crossed a dirt road. From here, though, we would come across any more roads until came down from the summit
It was very breezy for almost all of the run. Nonetheless it was very fun to just be running where we wanted to in this wide open country
The drainages were often the toughest due to the stout scrub oak bushwacking.
Bill was trying out a new headdress for the run
Some lone trees on the NW side of the mountain
This drainage offered reprieve from the wind
On a lower summit of San Antonio Mountain just SW of the true summit
A little snow on the north-facing slope between the low summit and the real summit
I'm guessing this is a stock pond
The true summit, 10,908', is adorned with antennas
Group shot! It took us just over four hours to reach the summit.
We didn't linger too long
But Brian had to take care of some bizness
Ah, now the for the spoils. 2.5 miles of downhill running. It was very nice after all the cross-country and bushwacking
On the return cross country we had to navigate a couple of barbed wire fences
Ah, there it is!
After 5:25 and 17.5 miles we were back. And time for Taos Pizza Outback + beer
Andy and Sarah finishing strong

HourlyMore than 30 hrs/week
Start DateApril 30, 2013
Mobile software development start-up is seeking an experienced hybrid mobile developer(Apache Cordova/PhoneGap) for a simple multiplayer game.
Required experience, kineticJS, knockout.js and jQuery, Node.js is a huge plus(If you know better framework, feel free to suggest it).
So far here is what our developers did quickly https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/166755636/worstchallenge/index.html
Please answer to below questions from our developer in order to proceed further.
1. Do you know the correct way to implement Facebook connect in a way that it will work both on a web app and PhoneGap generated mobile app. Or we should detect platform and embed web based and mobile based Facebook connect code depending on what the client is. I will appreciate if you will give us a link to a good article which explains how to deal with that.
2. Another question are images. We assume that if mobile phone has 1024 x 768 resolution that means that two 500 x 500 pixel sized images should be showing normally one after another in a row. But we can see only part of the first image on the screen, looks like it auto scale images depending on screen density, ppi or something like that. What is the normal way to prepare images for PhoneGap. Should we set some flags before compiling, or should we use some formula to prepare images of the given size to show correctly on the PhoneGap generated mobile app.
Thank you very much,
Narek G.

I recently stumbled across Splunk 4 (by way of an advert on this very site...) and found that it had an "App" that's designed to work with Cisco IronPort WebSecurity and E-Mail Appliances! That's really awesome, because good IronPort reporting is something our IT-dept. is looking for.
Anyways - I'm totally lost on how to configure this thing. I've googled like a mad-man to find a guide or such like - but I haven't found anything.
Has anyone here set up IP / Splunk? Any tips/pointers?

The letter by Langer et al provides additional data from the Wisconsin Veterans Home about the impact of the prospective payment system (PPS) on nursing homes in our state. Average hospital length of stay for their residents in 1986 was 6·35 days, which is significantly shorter than the 8·0 days we reported for Wisconsin's institutionalized Medicaid population in 1984. If these length-of-stay data are confirmed by other nursing homes, then the average length of hospital stays for nursing home residents has continued to decline since 1984 and is now significantly shorter than the 7·9 days reported by the Wisconsin Hospital Association for all Medicare beneficiaries in 1986.Although Langer et al do not provide pre-PPS data for comparison, their findings are consistent with the results of our study. The short hospital stays, the readmission rate, and the number of residents dying within 15 days of a hospital discharge

Magic Johnson: Donald Sterling Is 'Living in the Stone Ages'
He asked Magic to appear with him in a Barbara Walters interview.
Yesterday, Donald Sterling dug a deeper hole for himself by trashing Magic Johnson and making a new round of racist remarks. Obviously, Johnson wasn't pleased about Sterling questioning his contributions to the black community and criticizing him for contracting HIV, and on Tuesday, he responded in an interview with Anderson Cooper. "I just feel sorry for him. I really do. It's sad," Johnson said. "The problem is, he is living in the Stone Ages. He can't make those comments about African-Americans or Latinos. He just can't do it."
Aside from the inflammatory remarks, Johnson said Sterling completely misrepresented their conversations, his relationship with V. Stiviano, and his alleged plot to buy the Clippers. "If I was going to trick somebody, deceive somebody, be dishonest to somebody, steal somebody's franchise, it is going to be the Los Angeles Lakers," Johnson joked.
Johnson said he's met Sterling about four times, but they only talked basketball. He described Stiviano as one of "millions of people" he's been photographed with, but said he doesn't recall meeting her. "I don't know the young lady, barely know Donald," said Johnson. "So now I'm caught in the middle of this love affair or whatever they have."
While Sterling claims that Johnson called him after the scandal broke and told him not to comment, Johnson says it was Sterling who called him, and asked if he would sit by his side during a Barbara Walters interview. "I told him I wouldn't do it," said Johnson. "I said, the number one thing you need to do, which you haven't done, is apologize to everybody and myself." He says Sterling responded, "I will get to that. I will get to that." Sterling publicly apologized during Monday's interview, but has yet to offer a personal apology to Johnson. "When I saw that interview, it is sad. It really is," said Johnson. "I'm going to pray for this young man. I hope Donald can see the mistake that he has made, and also the people he has hurt along the way."
