I do apologize for my lack of posting this semester. I was only enrolled in one class, but it was very time consuming. In class for 10 hours a week, plus homework, tests, practice, and of course, the normal busy-ness of life. It's been crazy and great and a lot of work all in one. And it has changed me. The way I work in the kitchen and the way I feel about what I do. I expected the former, but the latter was quite a surprise.
Salad night in class was a favorite. These are my two chefs at the front — I can't speak highly enough of everyone I've learned from at COD.
It's really be phenomenal.
I already knew I loved cooking and teaching other's how to operate in their own kitchens, but I did not expect to gain so much confidence in my own abilities. I was a little worried that this stay-at-home mom wouldn't be able to cut it in a professional kitchen, and I can say, without bragging, that I have done very well. I've consistently received top feedback and held my own against my class mates. I even gained enough confidence to compete in a scholarship cooking competition.
Sandwich night, another favorite. So good!
And guess what? I won 3rd place! Me?! Cooking against 15 other students who all had a lot more experience, both in cooking and in competition. It was a small cash prize, but what it did for my confidence was huge. I've often questioned if I'm being selfish for being in culinary school during my kids little years. Often as I dash out the door to class and see other mom's on walks with their babies I feel guilty. But this little competition, it reminded me that I'm doing exactly what I should be doing right now. Not only am I good at it, but I love it, and who knows what future rewards it will reap in my future?
Seafood night was another favorite.
These aren't plated at all, just a smorgasbord of delicious seafood!
So that's my semester round-up. A lot of what I learned I will be sharing here over the summer. And you can bet that I'll be teaching all kinds of skills classes in real life, too. But more than learning from me how to cook, I hope you are challenged to do what you love and pursue it — even when it seems crazy.

Federal Judge Puts Wisconsin Same-Sex Marriage Ruling On Hold Pending Appeal
Ruling comes after a week of marriages — and confusion.
WASHINGTON — A federal judge issued a final trial court order striking down Wisconsin's ban on same-sex couples marrying, but she put her ruling on hold pending appeal.
"I conclude that Herbert v. Kitchen, compels me to stay the injunction," U.S. District Court Judge Barbara Crabb wrote, referencing the Supreme Court's January decision halting same-sex marriages in Utah during the appeal of that case.
The ruling comes a week after her initial decision striking down the ban. At that time, she did not issue an injunction in the case and laid out a plan for resolving that question and the question of whether her eventually injunction should be stayed during the appeal in the coming weeks.
Officials in Dane and Milwaukee counties, however, took Crabb's declaration that the ban is unconstitutional to mean that they could begin marrying same-sex couples if they wished to do so. Wisconsin Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen sought to stop those marriages with an emergency request for a temporary stay, but no such stay was granted — either by Crabb or the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals. Over the course of the week, many other counties in the state began issuing licenses and, on Wednesday, the Wisconsin Vital Records Office began processing the licenses.
Because of the confusion, lawyers for the plaintiffs and the state sped up the process of providing language for Crabb's injunction in the case, and she held a hearing Friday afternoon to consider that issue, as well as the state's request for a stay.
Crabb explained her reasoning, including why her injunction includes a stay of the declaration striking down the state's ban as unconstitutional, in Friday's decision:
Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen issued a statement following today's ruling:
"I am very pleased that Judge Crabb has followed the lead of courts across the country, including the United States Supreme Court, and fully stayed her ruling. By staying this ruling, she has confirmed that Wisconsin's law regarding same-sex marriage remains in full force and effect," he said.
"The state and all of its agencies and subdivisions must follow and enforce Wisconsin's marriage law. County clerks do not have authority under Wisconsin law to issue same-sex marriage licenses. Judge Crabb's stay makes this abundantly clear," Van Hollen said.

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - Florida's unemployment insurance program relies on computer technology that is antiquated and faces a growing risk of "failure."
That's according to a state report obtained by The Orlando Sentinel. The Agency for Workforce Innovation, which runs the program, found that the 35-year-old mainframe computer costs the state tens of millions of dollars in unemployment overpayments and staff time.
The report says the system is a "roadblock" to getting Floridians back to work and cannot keep pace with the welfare program's growing needs.
The Florida unemployment rate shot up to 9.4 percent in February, its highest since 1976.
Agency interim director Cynthia Lorenzo acknowledges that the computer system needs replacing.
But state Sen. Mike Fasano says he wonders whether the system is as shaky as the report suggests.

Iran Executed 223 People in First Five Months of 2012, UN Says
The government of Iran carried out as many as 223 executions, of which 82 were done in secret, in the first five months of this year, a United Nations investigator said.
Ahmed Shaheed, the UN special rapporteur on the human rights situation in Iran, said in a report made public today that at least 141 officially announced executions took place between January and early June 2012. A further 82 executions were done in secret in that same period, according to the report.
Under Iranian law, the death sentence can be applied for crimes such as alcohol consumption, adultery and drug trafficking. Two men were sentenced to death in June for drinking, the report says.
There were 53 executions across the country during one week in May, according to the report.
"A large number of those sentenced to death were convicted in the absence of fair trial standards," Shaheed wrote in the report.
There have been 3,766 floggings since 2002, with 1,444 in 2009 alone, according to the report. Common charges include adultery, public disruption such as taking part in "illegal gatherings" and drug offenses.
Shaheed, who wasn't allowed to enter Iran to assess the situation, said his 22-page report is based on 99 interviews of which 75 were first-hand accounts.

Anyone have a trailer they can rent OR ideas on how to haul a hockey bag?
This topic contains 13 replies, has 8 voices, and was last updated by Mikhail 2 yrs, 10 mos.

I have a situation next week where I'd really like to haul my hockey bag with my bike. I'll be taking the Pens adult skills camp at Consol on 9/17 and 9/18 and I need to figure out how to get my hockey gear down there sans car.
Option 1. Bus. Unfortunately with all the bus route cutbacks there isn't a route near my house, and the nearest is a bit of a walk. Carrying a hockey bag and 2 sticks to the bus, then sitting on it through Oakland at rush hour isn't my idea of a good time.
Option 2. Bike. Somehow get a trailer to carry the bag on and bike it. The sticks aren't a problem, you just strap those along the top tube. I don't, however, have a trailer nor have I ever used one.
So will a trailer securely haul a 25 lb loaded hockey bag (probably) and also where I can get/rent a trailer for a reasonable price?
I've read that this is done in Calgary and Toronto (and London; UK, not Ontario) but I haven't seen pics.
So…any suggestions??
jonawebb #
You can borrow my single-wheel trailer. It mounts through the rear quick-release hub. It would easily carry a 25 lb hockey bag. Email me if interested. I'm in Squirrel Hill.
sarapgh2 #
Seriously? That would be awesome!
Benzo #
If you were looking to buy gear… a burly travoy trailer seems perfect for this.
sarapgh2 #
Benzo – I like the look of that. Would totally work if I had actual money to spend. I'll have to keep that in mind for the future.
Pierce #
I forgot that's on my never-ending bicycle want list too
If I ever actually make money…
sarapgh2 #
The trailer worked great (felt a little squirrely at first but then figured it out) and successfully transported the bag to Consol. Thanks so much Jon!
jonawebb #
You're welcome, glad to help. I like the way you're managing your hockey sticks.
Mick #
My sense is the tiny wheels would be an issue with every pothole you hit – as well as curbs and even imperfect curb cuts.
Even the wheels on my BOB are way too small and the BOB's are much bigger than that travoy trailer's.
billkamm #
That's awesome. It has been a goal of mine to ride my bike to a hockey game. I live in Cranberry and usually play on Neville Island. The biggest obstacle for me so far has been all of the games are at like 11:30 at night and I really didn't want to ride there and back in the dark.
sarapgh2 #
Thanks Bill, we should really all be living in Montreal or Toronto and go to rinks in the city:) The only one other than Consol I could ever really bike to again is Schenley, but that's also at night. We'll see. You could play at Warrendale just to be able to bike it:)
billkamm #
The 2.5 miles to the rink from my home doesn't excite me very much though lol.
edmonds59 #
2.5 miles, that's perfect for a bike trip! Flip it and look at it this way, why fire up the car for a 2.5 mile trip, the engine probably doesn't even warm up fully in that distance. Show people it can easily be done.
Mikhail #
You can use some interesting back-roads and make it 25. :)

i had a WP 1.5 blog...i was getting TONS of comment spam so i dumped my database and found a line that looks like this:
Dumping data for table wp_options
44 0 moderation_keys Y 1 http://www.google.ru 126.96.36.199 184.108.40.206
those IP addresses were the ones that were/are spamming me (plus or minus a few...22.214.171.124, etc.).
i didn't know how to fix it to make everything right, so i really couldn't do the upgrade with a bad database. so i made a new database and installed WP2.
i moved all the files to a brand new folder on my server and changed the info in the old wp-admin/edit.php to reflect the change (blog address, WP address, etc.).
then i moved all the files for my new blog directly to the server (not in a folder) and changed all the info for the blog and WP addresses to reflect it.
well, now it won't let me post to the new one, and when i try to go directly to the admin page for the new one (http://mysite.com/wp-admin) it redirects to the old one (mysite.com/old_blog), but then everywhere in the old blog's dashboard redirects to the front page unless i manually type it in (even though the links point to the right page, it won't work unless it's done manually). and the dashboard on the old site looks like the WP2 dashboard but it says 1.5.2 at the bottom.
can ANYBODY help me? thank you!

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

I have a 1999 RAV4 with 120,000 that's vibrating at Stops when in Drive, but not when in Neutral. Would it help long term if I used Neutral when stopped? OR should I start looking for another car? I'm not a mechanic. Thanks

This hardly sounds like a problem for which the whole vehicle needs replacement.
The symptoms could be explained by a misfiring cylinder, in which the vibrations are most obvious at idle and with the drivetrain engaged.
Common causes for misfires include ageing spark plugs/wires, absence of spark or improper fuel delivery (usually a clogged fuel injector).
I would not put it in neutral every time you stop. You risk premature wear and tear on the shifting mechanisms.
It depends on what you mean by vibration. A little (slightly inconsistent) vibration when idling is just fine and is not worth doing anything about.
you need to change your engine seat, I had same issue with my 1999 Rav4.

Who Is "The Walking Dead's" Ezekiel - And Why Does He Have a Pet Tiger?
Comic Books, TV
Will Pfeifer has a cool blog called X-Ray Spex, where Will talks about comics, pop culture and the comics he writes (like Catwoman, new issue out this Wednesday).
For his guest entry, Will is sharing with us "10 COMICS THAT SCREWED ME UP."
Fredric Wertham wrote a book (and helped maim an industry) with the hypothesis that comic books can screw you up royally. I'm not here to say that the good doctor was right, but I have to admit that they've done their job on me. Without comics, I might be doctor, a lawyer, or some other upstanding member of society. But thanks to them damned funnybooks, I'm…well, I'm a comic book writer. Fitting, eh?
So, in the spirit of warning the rest of you (though if you're reading this site, I'm guessing the comic book monkey has its claws pretty deep into your back), here are ten comics that warped my mind. Check 'em out – it's not like they could do the same to you, right? Right? Of course not!
Mom bought me this to read on a trip to grandma's house. It hit the stands around May of 1973, making me just under six. I had probably learned to read a few months earlier. Perfect time to dive into a comic with Gwen Stacy's corpse, the Green Goblin's death and Harry Osborne whacked out on acid. Thanks, mom. (No, seriously. Thanks!)
Bought this one myself, on a trip with dad to the local convenience store. I still can't remember why – I didn't even read comics then (late spring of 1979) and this one had nothing special to recommend it. In fact, it's lame. But I bought it, read it, and for some reason, I was hooked. And I have been for the past 27 years.
OK, I've never really read a copy of THE HAUNT OF FEAR 19. It hit the stands in the heyday of EC comics, way back in 1953. That was 14 years before I was even born. But sometime in 1979, a mere two panels from that comic reached across the decades and really got me. The story was Jack Davis' "Foul Play!," a revenge drama where the good guys (!) punish the bad guy by chopping him up and playing baseball with his body. His arms and legs are the bats, his intestines are the baselines, and his head…well, you can guess. Wertham reprinted two panels in SEDUCTION OF THE INNOCENT, and the OVERSTREET PRICE GUIDE reprinted the same ones, which is where my innocent pre-teen eyes saw 'em.
I was upset for weeks. No kidding. Now that's a comic!
Had to look the date on this one up. I never owned it, and wasn't sure what issue it was. All I remember was some kid brought it to fourth grade and, sneaking peeks during homework time, I devoured the reprinted comic book spoofs FLESH GARDEN! and MOLE! (with art by the incomparable Wally Wood and Will Elder, respectively). Suddenly, every other comic book seemed bland and tame. These comics were clearly not for kids – not really. I didn't get all the jokes, but I got Elder's dark, spooky art and Wood's insanely voluptuous babes. A copy of THE MAD READER paperback a year or so later gave me a bigger taste, and there was no going back. I still say those original comic book MADs are the finest comics ever published.
Aside from a few panels in an old COMICS JOURNAL, this issue of Warren reprints (a few years old when I bought it at a comic book store) was my first glimpse of Will Eisner. Like MAD, it was one of those moments when a door opens and there's no looking back. The genius was apparent in every brushstroke, and the stories (like MAD) were clearly written for grown ups. You kids today, with your SPIRIT ARCHIVES collecting ever story – In order! In color! -don't know how lucky you are.
I actually bought this sort of by mistake, thinking it was an issue of Marvel's AMAZING ADVENTURES, which was then reprinting the old Jack Kirby X-MEN (and I loved me the Kirby). But this was something different. And, despite being dropped into a stew of convoluted continuity (Wolverine? The Hellfire Club? Nightcrawler? Who the hell were these people?) I was hooked, and hooked for years. See, I'd been a fan for years, but it wasn't until I started buying X-MEN that I become a fanboy.
Finally, a comic book for adults that arrived when I was, well, if not actually an adult ( I was about 16) then ready to start reading and appreciating adult material. This one had everything – a brilliant view of the future, killer art, nasty humor, complex characters, sex, violence and all those garter belts. What more could you possibly want in a comic? I read it at least once a day until then second issue finally arrived a month later, then read them both until the third hit, then…well, you get the idea. Still might be my all-time favorite comic book series. Anyone know if that much-delayed hardcover collection is still coming out? I'd really like to know.
Sure, we take it for granted now, but remember how thrilling LOVE AND ROCKETS was the first time you saw it? My exposure came when, at the recommendation of a very wise friend, I picked up the first book collection at a Cleveland comic book show. I read it over and over, blown away by Beto's complex plotting and Jaime's eye-popping art. Like FLAGG, I read it over and over until I got my hands on another issue, then another, then another. I'm still buying it today. Thank god Fantagraphics is still publishing it.
And speaking of Fantagraphics, that's who brought this bit of black-and-white nightmare comedy into my life. I'd followed Dan Clowes' LLOYD LLEWELLYN, but that book's sly humor didn't prepare me for the sheer brilliance of EIGHTBALL. Besides a funny Lloyd story and a dark Jack Chick tract parody, this issue introduced me to Young Dan Pussey and kicked off Clowes' Lynchian serial, "Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron." And here's the best part: As good as this issue was, it would only get better. Much better.
I could've picked a lot of Grant Morrison comics for this list. I consider him one of comics best, most imaginative writers, and I count his works – ANIMAL MAN, DOOM PATROL and especially FLEX MENTALLO – among my all-time favorites. But this one-shot graphic novel is the one that got under my skin in a creepy way. Morrison took a corny old premise – there's an Earth where instead of being good, the Justice League is evil – and ran with it, straight into some dark and disturbing corners. These villains aren't comic book evil, they're genuinely evil, and so is the rest of their screwed up world. When the Justice League – our league, the good one – admits there's no way to save a world where good is doomed to fail, it's a chilling moment. Hell, it still creeps me out just thinking about it. Thanks, Grant. (No, seriously. Thanks!)
So that's the list. Got any of your own? Warp your mind enough, and you too might have a future as a comic book writer.
Oh, and speaking of that…the new issue of CATWOMAN (written by yours truly) hits the stands Wednesday. It guest stars Zatanna, gives a pretty solid clue to who the father of Catwoman's baby is and even contains a geeky homage to the shower scene in PSYCHO. Check it out, won't you?)
The best part is that Harry takes acid because he's suicidally depressed. Smart move, Harry.
Dammit Will! That Haunt of Fear issue looks good. Now I'll have to track down a reprint. And yes, I am spoiled by the Spirit Archives; Vol 19 just came out.
The issue of Tomb of Dracula where Dracula quite apparently kills Dr. Strange scared the crap out of me. I regularly read both titles as a six year old since the convenience store was sold out of most other Marvel titles by the time I got there.
Somehow I missed the conclusion of the story in Dr. Strange that month, and thus, thought Dr. Strange really was dead for two months till the next month's issue came out. I was completely freaked out that Dr. Strange had been killed by the bad guy. Only years later did I find the missing issue to find out what happened.
Polaris-powered punches are *awesome.*
A comic that *really* screwed me up as a kid was an issue of Perez's Wonder Woman, I think, which scared me so much I hid it under the bed until we moved. #55, I think. Dr. Psycho scares the piss out of me because of that one.
And Flex Mentallo #4 was good enough to blow my brain out the back of my head and make me high on comics for a while there. Changed my life.
That Harry always was a wise user of recreational drugs!
As for a reprint of "Foul Play!," it's included in the (highly recommended) EC collection that came out a year or so ago called (strangely enough) "Foul Play." Great book — profiles of every artist, with a complete story by them showcasing their work. Jack Davis' is the story in question.
I'd also agree that the end of FLEX MENTALLO 4 is one of the most amazing things I've ever read. The beauty of it is is that it could actually be true. Wotta great story.
Comics that screwed me up?
Death of Superman: read it when I was about five and I didn't read a lot of comics. I thought Big Blue was really dead. First comic I read, actually.
Dark Empire: Luke Skywalker turns evil? Even though he came back, I have never looked at him the same way again. It really alters the entire grand story of the Star Wars Universe.
Arkham Asylum: There aren't words to describe it.
Morrison's Animal Man: Along with AA, still informs the way I think about comics more than anything else.
Dr. Psycho's first appearance: Back when trade paperbacks were new, my (much) older sister got this collection of early Wonder Woman stories, including the first appearance of Dr. Psycho. This was the second comic I ever read, and Dr. Psycho was a scary mo'facky. No one has ever made him quite that scary again.
It seems to me that would have more to do with Baby shower game idea than just about anything else. Hello from the US please give a little more detail for us \'dunderheads\'.

The Storm of the Century (so far)
On August 23, 2005, a tropical depression formed 175 miles southeast of Nassau. By the next day, it had grown into tropical storm Katrina and was intensifying rapidly. Early in the evening on August 25, Hurricane Katrina made landfall near North Miami Beach. Even though it was only a Category 1 storm, with sustained wind speeds of about 80 miles per hour, it caused significant damage and flooding, and took 14 lives.
The hurricane's quick nighttime trip across Florida barely fazed the storm. Entering the Gulf of Mexico's warm waters quickly kicked Katrina into overdrive, like a supercharged engine on high-octane fuel. Hurricanes fuel themselves by continually sucking in and spinning up warm, moist air.
On August 28, Katrina reached Category 5 status, with sustained wind speeds of 160 mph and a pressure of 908 millibars. A few hours later, wind speeds hit 175 mph, which they maintained until the afternoon.
At 4:00 pm, the National Hurricane Center warned that local storm surges could hit 28 feet, and "Some levees in the Greater New Orleans Area could be overtopped," a warning that was tragically ignored by federal, state, and local emergency officials. Over the next 14 hours, Katrina's strength dropped steadily. When the hurricane's center made landfall Monday morning, it was a strong Category 3, battering coastal Louisiana with wind speeds of about 127 mph. The central pressure of 920 millibars was the third lowest pressure every recorded for a storm hitting the U.S. mainland.
The devastation to the Gulf region was biblical. The death toll exceeded 1300. The damage exceeded $100 billion. [Combined with the effects of Hurricane Rita] two million people were forced to leave their homes, more than were displaced during the 1930's Dust Bowl. One of the nation's great cities was devastated.
About 20 miles to the west of the second Gulf landfall was the small town named Pass Christian, Mississippi, where my brother lived with his wife and son.
Tropical cyclones in the northern hemisphere rotate counterclockwise, and so the most intense storm surge is just to the east of the eye, because the surge represents the intense winds pushing the sea against the shore. A 30-foot wall of water with waves up to 55 feet crashed over the town. Although my brother and his family lived one mile inland, their house was ravaged with water up to 22 feet high, leaving the contents of the house looking like they had been churned "inside of a washing machine," in my brother's words. While they lost virtually all their possessions, they were safe in a Biloxi shelter.
Thanks to the generosity of many people, my brother's family was able to find a temporary home in Atlanta. But like many families whose lives were ripped apart by the storm, they had difficult choices in the ensuing months. Perhaps the toughest decision was whether to rebuild their home or to uproot themselves and try to create a new life somewhere else.
I very much wanted to give my brother an expert opinion on what was likely to come in the future. After all, climate change was my field, and while my focus has been on climate solutions, I had done my Ph.D. thesis on physical oceanography.
As I listened and talked to many of the top climate experts, it quickly became clear that the climate situation was far more dire than most people-and even many scientists, myself included-realized. Almost every major climate impact was occurring faster than the computer models had suggested. Arctic sea ice was shrinking far faster than every single model had projected. And the great ice sheets of Greenland and West Antarctica were shedding ice decades earlier than the models said. Soils appear to be losing their ability to take up carbon dioxide faster than expected. At the same time, global carbon dioxide emissions and concentrations were rising faster than most had expected.
As for hurricanes, global warming had been widely projected to make them more intense and destructive, but again the recent increase in intensity was coming sooner than the computer models had suggested. Why is that a concern? Since 1970, the temperature of the Atlantic Ocean's hurricane-forming region has risen 0.5°C (0.9°F). Over the path of a typical hurricane, this recent ocean warming added the energy equivalent of a few hundred thousand Hiroshima nuclear bombs. On our current emissions path, the Atlantic will warm twice as much, another 1°C, by mid-century, and perhaps another 2°C beyond that by century's end. Who can even imagine the hurricane seasons such warming might bring?
This is what I ultimately told my brother, the same advice I would give anyone contemplating living near the Gulf Coast:
Only a quarter of Atlantic hurricanes make U.S. landfall, and while there is no question that the frequency of intense Atlantic hurricanes is rising, it is somewhat random as to where they will actually go any given year.
That said, the Gulf of Mexico is going to get warmer and warmer, as is the Atlantic Ocean, and so hurricanes that enter the Gulf are likely to start out and end up far more destructive than usual. I would not bet that the Mississippi Gulf Coast will get hit by a super-hurricane in any particular year, but I would certainly plan on it being hit again some time over the next ten years; I wouldn't be surprised if it were hit by more than one.
Coastal dwellers from Houston to Miami are now playing Russian roulette with maybe two bullets in the gun chamber each year. In a couple of decades, it may be three bullets.
[This is excerpted from my book, Hell and High Water. The description of Katrina is from two terrific sources: Grauman et al., Hurricane Katrina: A Climatological Perspective, Technical Report 2005-01, NCDC, October 2005, update Jan 06, and Richard D. Knabb, Jamie R. Rhome, and Daniel P. Brown, Tropical Cyclone Report: Hurricane Katrina, 23-30 August 2005, National Hurricane Center 20 December 2005.]

CapitalClimate has archived a meteorologist's perspective on the event and its aftermath as it occurred. Unfortunately, the reader comments haven't been preserved, but they showed remarkable hostility from the audience of what was then a DC weather blog to the attention being given to the subject. See TPM Election Central for the lesson Rove and the Republicans learned from Katrina.
Cyclone Sidr 's death toll exceeded 3400. But of course it had no effect on American politics.
Joe: I find myself reliving my own memories of Hurricane Katrina today (I was a reporter at the time, covering the destruction along the Gulf Coast), and thinking about the lessons that it should have taught us about climate and natural disasters — lessons that seem to have already been forgotten by many. I just hope that Gustav doesn't give us another grim reminder this week. Here's my blog entry at NRDC's Switchboard: http://tinyurl.com/5ee7sa
I don't know if I would agree that the people from Houston were forced to leave their homes. They were scared into leaving their homes when the only ones who needed to be leaving their homes were people who lived along the Gulf (places like Galveston.) The people from Houston poured out onto the freeway and created a total freakin' mess. I sat on my lawn chair and watched the circus, and soon got to enjoy a freeway system that was just about completely empty.
Storm of the Century?
Really? The rest of the world suffers from them too you know!
I'm assisting with this new blog – http://ruff264.vox.com/library/post/times-they-are-a-changing.html – called Albert's Arrival. We think it's a pretty clever idea to broaden audiences. There's a strong recommend your book. While climate is global and thus scenesetter for local – like kiwis – the politics will be local.
Though content is broader and deserves bigger. Much bigger. If you can help we'd be grateful.. oyes, there's an election here, too, this november.. and keeping them honest is the challenge..

Hi everybody,
I'm relatively new to WP and in the past, I haven't done much work with CSS. I have a really weird problem that I've never seen before, and I suspect it has something to do with the structure of my CSS file, but really, I don't know. On http://www.middleeastfacts.com/weblog/, if you hover over any of the links in the top menu, a white block appears over part of the calendar and links on the right. The weirdest part is that two of the menu items don't result in a white block appearing - Weblog and Mailing List. None of the other links on the page seem to result in the box appearing. I would think there was something wrong with my code, except that those two menu items don't cause problems, so I suspect it's a css problem that I probably can't diagnose myself. The code for the menu is:

What the Koran Says
Links
Weblog
Old /
New
Feedback
Mailing List
There are no structural differences between the menu item links, so I'm really confused why some trip an error and others don't.
Any help that you guys can give me is appreciated. I'd like to go live with the new blog, but I can't really unless I get this problem fixed.
Thanks very much!!!
